On August 29, Huang Mingzheng ordered Dou Gui to lead his troops to form an array in Qianshuiyuan.
For this order, Dou Gui hated it so much that he almost gritted his teeth.
Huang Mingzheng¡¯s intention is almost clear. To put it bluntly, Dou Gui's troops are just a big piece of white meat to lure Zong Luohu to attack. A hungry rabbit will bite people, not to mention the tiger and wolf army like Longyou.
But what can Dou Gui do?
Zong Luohu on the opposite side ordered the three armies to attack almost as soon as he gained the trust. He almost went crazy thinking about this decisive battle.
The Western Qin army jumped out and headed straight for Qianshuiyuan.
At this time, Dou Gui had already gritted his teeth and built solid fortifications in Qianshuiyuan to block the Western Qin army.
Huang Mingzheng asked Dou Gui to stay in Qianshuiyuan for ten days.
This would cost Dou Gui his life. If Fufeng Land had not fallen into the hands of the Sui Army, and the fate of the entire Dou family was in the hands of the Sui Army, he would have had to turn against Huang Mingzheng.
The attack of the Western Qin Army came faster than expected.
Wave after wave of Western Qin cavalry galloped on the shallow water plains, bringing up endless billowing smoke and dust, as if they were going to engulf the Dou Rail Department.
And the Western Qin soldiers riding one after another disappeared and reappeared from the smoke, with lightning speed and power, ruthlessly carving into the formation of the Dou Rail Department.
If the entire army is compared to a giant, then he must have been concentrated on the softest belly by the Western Qin soldiers.
Facing this overwhelming cavalry, the entire Dou Gui army was trembling.
Regardless of casualties, the Western Qin army continued to use cavalry to attack the front of Dou Gui's army. Soon the formation of the front camp of Dou Gui's army was attacked by the Western Qin army, and it was as uneven as a dog biting.
The formation is loosening.
In an instant, Dou Gui remembered the tragic defeat, and subconsciously wanted to pull his horse and turn around.
Dou Gui had never seen the horror of the Sui army. The biggest defeat he had experienced in his life was the defeat in Qianshuiyuan. If he had not been lucky enough to cross the Jingshui River, he would have died in the mountains.
So Dou Gui was deathly afraid of the Western Qin Army.
But at this moment, Dou Deming, who was beside Dou Gui, held down Dou Gui's horse rein.
"Eighth uncle, as of now, our Dou family has no way to retreat. By winning this battle, the Dou family has done a great service to Duke Wei. Even if he doesn't want to see us anymore, he will be like the emperor of the Han Dynasty. The teeth are the same, give our Dou family an explanation, otherwise the whole world will not accept it.
"If we were defeated today, and Duke Wei would blame all the blame for the defeat on the Dou family, would the Dou family still have a way to survive?"
Although Dou Deming was a civil servant, Zhang Wenyuan specifically asked Dou Deming to follow Dou Gui as he headed north. Zhang Wenyuan didn't know what the other Dou family members were like, but Dou Deming was a sensible person.
The focus of the Dou family is the tens of thousands of troops. With him around, at least the Dou family will not do stupid things.
Dou Gui was also angry at this time. He pointed at the Western Qin Army opposite and said: "Don't you know, this is Huang Mingzheng deliberately consuming our Dou family. Even if this battle can be won, what price will the Dou family have to pay? How many people are left?¡±
"No matter how many people are left, not a single person in this army will be left to the Dou family after the war. Does the eighth uncle still want to support Huang Mingyuan's troops and respect himself?"
Dou Deming looked at Dou Guailui: "If the eighth uncle can find a way to make the Dou family run smoothly without losing his head, Deming will die without frowning."
"you!"
Since I defeated Dou Kang that day, it seems that Dou Deming¡¯s Ren and Du channels have been opened up.
Dou Deming could see clearly how weak these family elders were under the pretentious authority. Neither Dou Kang nor Dou Gui was happy with Duke Wei, and could not support the Dou family at all.
But I was different. From the time I took the initiative to persuade Dou Kang to surrender, I believed that Duke Wei had seen him. As long as he doesn't act like Dou Kang and cling to Guanlong's interests, I believe Wei Gong will not give up an influential Guanlong family to check and balance the Guandong family.
So when Dou Deming saw that Dou Gui still couldn't figure it out, he waved his hand, drew out the sword from his waist, and said, "Eighth uncle, think about it for yourself. Deming is the son of the Dou family and is willing to die for the Dou family."
Dou Deming then grabbed the horse's belly with his sword and rushed out. He shouted: "Commanders of the three armies, you know clearly that as long as you become an army of the Sui Dynasty, Duke Wei will allocate land to you. I will fight with the thieves today. You will follow me to kill the enemy, destroy the enemy army, and go home to share the land!"
Everyone is also vaguely aware of this matter. In order to win over the troops, Huang Mingzheng has sent people to publicize it among the troops. However, in order to maintain control of the army, the Dou family deliberately concealed the information and did not make a statement, so everyone half believed the matter.Doubtful.
At this time, Dou Deming shouted this matter, and the three armies immediately cheered up.
"Destroy all the enemy forces and go home to divide the fields!"
"Destroy all the enemy forces and go home to divide the fields!"
The morale of the three armies immediately rose.
Dou Deming personally led his soldiers to the front line to block the attack of the Western Qin army together with the soldiers on the front line.
Dou Gui gritted his teeth as he watched from behind, but he couldn't let Dou Deming die on the front line like this, so he immediately sent people forward to support him.
However, we have to admit that Dou Deming took the lead and encouraged the three armies with the division of land, which immediately boosted the morale of the army. A group of soldiers rushed to the Western Qin Army screaming for their own land.
The entire battlefield finally entered the most tragic and bloody stalemate stage.
The Western Qin Army attacked the Dou Army seven times in a row, and almost all of their horses were disabled. However, the Dou Army gritted its teeth and held on. The entire front line was filled with corpses of both armies.
Human corpses and horse corpses are spread on the ground, layer after layer.
As for the blood, it almost stained the entire Qianshuiyuan.
In the end, even Zong Luohu personally led the charge, intending to overwhelm the Dou family's army.
As for the Dou family's army, Dou Gui also personally led his soldiers to plug the gap. Almost everyone in the Dou family's army fought to the death and shared the same hatred of the enemy. Only then did they maintain their formation and prevent the Western Qin army from being completely torn apart.
In this way, both sides continued to fight until they were exhausted, exhausted all their strength, and had to stop.
After the war, Zong Luohu lay tiredly on the ground, letting the soldiers around him look at him without saying a word.
Such a war is full of despair.
In the next few days, the Dou family's army was like a rooted pillar, firmly nailed to the shallow water. The Western Qin army attacked dozens of times without success.
The most serious thing is that the Western Qin army completely ran out of food.
Gaocheng City has been eaten by everyone, and no living thing is left.
Zong Luohu had no choice but to kill dozens of horses every day and use horse meat mixed with grass and leaves to satisfy everyone's hunger.
Although grass and leaves are not tasty, they can be eaten.
¡°If we only eat horses, no matter how many horses we have, there won¡¯t be enough food for the soldiers of the three armies.
It is almost autumn now, and the grass and trees are beginning to wither and turn yellow. The leaves of the grass and trees have little water, making it difficult to eat. But in order to satisfy their hunger, the soldiers of the Western Qin Dynasty had no choice but to eat. All the vegetation and leaves inside and outside Gao'an City were eaten up by the Western Qin army.
This battle is really almost impossible to fight. (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com
