Chapter 1746 Reversing the situation

Previous page        Return to Catalog        Next page

    Huang Zhang led hundreds of fine cavalry to kill Duanmen.  Putting on their armor and raising their horses, they are elite soldiers that no one can stop in the world.

    Huang Zhang and his group, if they were in the vast wilderness, hundreds of people would be just an inconspicuous unit.  But on the narrow streets, running vertically and horizontally, it is like a torrent that bursts its embankment and is difficult to stop.

    There were Wei troops scurrying along the way, and they were all killed by everyone, so hundreds of cavalry advanced directly to the south of Tianjin Bridge.

    At this time, the Wei army had been divided into two by Tianjin Bridge.  Pei Xingyan led a force to storm Duanmen to the north, while Pei Renji led a force to fight fiercely on Tianjie with reinforcements coming from all directions.  As for Meng Rang's troops, they have been plundering and scattering them in all directions. At this time, Meng Rang only had a few hundred people around him, so there was no hope at all.

    Although Huang Zhang was just a family general, he followed Huang Mingyuan as early as Huang Mingyuan's Northern Expedition to the Eastern Turks. He had rich battlefield experience. If he wanted to serve as an official, General Hu Benlang would have already done so.

    He rushed to Tianjin Bridge and saw that there were not many bandits, so he pushed across.

    The bandits on the bridge were caught off guard. Under the impact of the cavalry, they quickly collapsed and dispersed in all directions. Huang Zhang then occupied Tianjin Bridge.

    Tianjin Bridge is a pontoon bridge, which is made of iron locks connected to large ships. There are four-corner pavilions on the bridge, and there are four symmetrical towers on both sides of the bridge in the north and south.

    After Huang Zhang occupied this place, he used it as a basis to launch an attack to the north.

    Although Pei Renji and Meng Rang's troops are more harmful to Luoyang City, everyone has to focus on the imperial city.

    At this time, after Pei Renji entered the imperial city, he was fighting fiercely with the main force of the Sui army.

    The imperial city and palace city of Luoyang City were both built with strips of stone, and because Huang Mingyuan used the lever principle to create many machines, the city was built extremely high.  The city is about twelve meters high, eight meters wide at the base and seven meters wide at the top. This was an almost insurmountable natural hazard in the era of cold weapons.

    Pei Xingyan could rely on a sneak attack to enter Duanmen, but when the Sui army reacted and closed the city gate tightly, it was difficult for Pei Xingyan to move forward.

    Huangfu Wuyi ordered people to close the city gate tightly, and at the same time attacked from Ziwei City to attack Pei Xingyan's tribe.

    On the top of the city, bows and crossbows were fired, and with the help of bows and arrows, the two sides fought together.

    Pei Xingyan is indeed brave. Every time he swings his sword, he takes away a life.  At this time, he fought several battles in a row, with blood all over his body, but he continued to attack as if he was tireless.

    Although Huangfu Wuyi's military strength was not weaker than that of his opponent, he was at a disadvantage.

    This situation soon changed with the arrival of Yang An.

    The people under Yang An¡¯s command are all veterans, well-equipped and well-trained.  Moreover, these people were regarded as Yang Jian's private soldiers and were loyal to the Sui Dynasty court.

    Yang An rushed out from the Chongguang Gate of the East Palace and slammed into the Wei army.  These armies are as powerful as mountains and rivers.  And in the eyes of everyone, the morale is awe-inspiring and should not be underestimated.

    The two sides collided fiercely, engaging in the most primitive physical fight.  The Wei army was brave, but Yang An's troops were even more desperate. They attacked and killed fiercely without flinching, and their morale was superior to the opponent's.

    Pei Xingyan also felt pressure when facing this group of people.

    At this time, Yang An came to kill, and Pei Xingyan hurriedly stepped forward to resist.  However, Yang Anming did not charge directly. He had discovered Pei Xingyan long ago and knew that he was brave and might be unstoppable, so he ordered his men to disperse.

    When Pei Xingyan came forward, Yang Anti tried to fight him. His men on the left and right took the opportunity to swarm up and stab Pei Xingyan randomly.

    Pei Xingyan was unprepared and was stabbed on his horse, causing him to fall off as well.  But Pei Xingyan was brave after all, and his horse fell but his men did not fall.  He smashed the long spear and broke all the spears thrust around him.  Yang An wanted to step forward and kill him, but Pei Xingyan's long spear hit the horse's leg and caused him to fall off.

    The two soldiers each stepped forward to protect the other.

    Pei Xingyan also had lingering fears and retreated into the army.  As for Yang An, seeing that he had lost the opportunity to kill the opponent's general, he was not discouraged and ordered his men to form a tight formation and advance forward.

    Pei Xingyan didn¡¯t know Yang An, but he guessed that he was not an ordinary person.  Seeing that the Sui army had the terrain advantage and was supported by strong troops, he wanted to retreat.

    Pei Xingyan was originally unwilling to attack Luoyang City. He believed that the opportunity was too late. If he was frustrated at this time, he would not carry it to his death.

    So Pei Xingyan sent someone to notify his father, and at the same time he prepared to retreat to Duanmen behind him and hold on to the danger.

    In Pei Xingyan¡¯s view, although their goal failed in today¡¯s battle, the two sides were evenly matched, and even his own strategy had the upper hand.  At this time, they retreated slowly and calmly. Even when they arrived at Li Mi's place, they could only say that there was no support and they had no choice but to retreat. No one could say no.

    Pei Xingyan still doesn¡¯t know that the enemies on the south side are about to kill him.

    ? ?Zhang Zhang led hundreds of cavalry across Tianjin Bridge and entered Duanmen.  Because Duanmen was the lifeline of the Wei army, it was not closed.  The Sui army was made up of cavalry, and they swarmed forward. The Wei army was dispersed before they even had time to stop them.

    Huang Zhang looked up and saw a dense crowd of bandits on the opposite side, slowly retreating.

    Huang Zhang raised the horse spear in his hand and shouted loudly: "Leave your spears flat and line up on the wall!"

    When the cavalry heard the order, they immediately slowed down their horses and got close to each other, forming a wall-like team.

    "Attack!"

    The cavalry in the first row began to accelerate after hearing the order, and the team behind them followed closely.  Although the entire team is not very fast, there are almost no gaps between them, making it inevitable for people to avoid.

    Rows of cavalry held their spears and rolled toward the bandits like tanks. The retreating Wei army was caught off guard and immediately hit the wall.

    Even in a normal battle with cavalry from both sides charging at each other, it is impossible for the Wei army to withstand Huang Zhang's hundreds of men, not to mention that Pei Xingyan's troops are retreating.

    So the Wei army was immediately in tragedy.

    The sharp spears pierced the bodies of countless people, and the war horses swarmed over them.  The soldiers of the Wei army looked at the impenetrable forest of spears, unable to escape, and almost collapsed.

    The Sui army moved forward, and after crushing them, there were only corpses scattered along the way.

    Pei Xingyan was shocked when he heard the chaos in front of the army after leading his army to retreat.  At a glance, he saw hundreds of cavalrymen like thunder and thunder, and the leader was none other than Huang Zhang.

    Huang Zhang was the chief guard of Duke Wei's mansion. Pei Xingyan often went to Duke Wei's mansion to study when he was a child, so he got to know him and even learned riding and shooting from Huang Zhang.

    At the same time, Huang Zhang, who was on the opposite side, also recognized Pei Xingyan, and shouted loudly: "Pei Xingyan, in the past, when Duke Wei taught you knowledge and taught you the art of war, did he want you to betray the Sui Dynasty and become a rebel? What you did today,  Are you worthy of Duke Wei?"

    When Pei Xingyan heard this, he was shocked and speechless, and his momentum had already dropped.

    It was not until the cavalry from the opposite side rushed in that Pei Xingyan woke up from a dream, and the spear from the opposite side almost pierced him.  Seeing that there was no room to move in the front, Pei Xingyan seized the road and retreated to both sides, leaving only a group of remnants in the middle, which were slaughtered by the Sui army.  (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com
