Chapter 1 Choice by the Yellow River(1/2)
Luoyang, Qilijian.
Wang Mi's army was defeated like a mountain. He rode a tall horse and headed north in a panic.
Bei Gongchun no longer glanced at the battlefield that was out of control due to Wang Mi's retreat. For Da Jin, it was garbage time for harvest.
So Bei Gongchun didn't hesitate at all, and immediately led dozens of personal guards and chased directly in the direction where Wang Mi escaped.
Wang Mi was flattered all the way, and he had gradually distanced himself from the Xiliang cavalry led by Bei Gongchun.
But suddenly the horse stumbled, and Wang Mi was thrown out by the horse and fell to the ground, looking quite embarrassed.
What was even more fatal was that when he turned around and heard the sound of chasing horses' hooves, Wang Mi couldn't help but feel a little desperate. He didn't expect to die here.
"Don't hurt Uncle Wang!" At this time, there was a slightly childish and loud voice, like the cry of a baby bird.
A dozen cavalrymen wearing white robes rushed out from one side.
Bei Gongchun glanced around. Compared to the dozen or so cavalry, he was even more afraid of the hundreds of infantrymen wearing white turbans following behind these cavalry.
Although the number of the opponent's cavalry is not large, it is very troublesome to deal with it even if the infantry and cavalry work together.
But then I thought about it, the other party was just an ordinary refugee, how could he know how to coordinate on foot and cavalry?
Of course, the most important thing is that the young man leading the army, holding the halberd in his hand, rushed over like this.
"Where did the stupid young man come from?!" Qi Qi got closer and saw that this young man was about thirteen or fourteen years old. He was wearing silver bright armor. It seemed that the armor was a bit too big. I guess it came from the Xuchang weapons depot during Wang Mi's uprising.
Robbed from inside.
Although normally generals wear armor, they need to be protected by personal guards and commander-in-chief to form a joint force.
Without these, the general wearing Mingguang Armor would have become an obvious target, not to mention that Leng Tou Qing would have charged directly.
Bei Gongchun sneered and took the initiative to step forward. The horses on both sides crossed each other and held out their spears like lightning, then stabbed the little moth thief in the head.
As for the halberd that the opponent slashed at, haha...
A child of thirteen or fourteen, who has not even grown up yet, actually goes to the battlefield!
However, Bei Gongchun didn't notice at all. The guards around the young man looked at Bei Gongchun with a little pity.
When the spears and halberds met, Bei Gongchun suddenly felt his hands go numb, and an indescribable strange force surged out from the opponent's halberd.
His tiger's mouth was numb, and the tiger-head spear in his hand was directly knocked away by the opponent's halberd.
The two sides fought only once before losing their weapons. Even if Bei Gongjun was somewhat careless, the eyes he looked at the young man in front of him at this moment were more or less astonished as if he were looking at a monster.
But at this moment, the halberd in the young man's hand struck him again. Beigong Chun twisted his body, using the horse as a fulcrum to avoid the blow.
This young man did not have much experience in horse fighting, but he managed to save his own life by intersecting with each other.
Beigong Chun galloped forward on horseback, then turned and turned sideways on the horse without slowing down to pick up the tiger head spear that had been knocked to the ground. He returned to the Xiliang cavalry, and the guards around him immediately gathered around him.
, I’m afraid something will happen!
Bei Gongchun felt a sense of peace in his heart and said, "What a great effort, young man, please sign up!"
"I am Queen Zhang of Qingzhou, Liu Tai!" Liu Tai looked at Bei Gongchun and said without fear, "You are willing to fight me again!"
Bei Gongchun glanced at Wang Mi, who had remounted his horse and was about to run away, and sneered, "Wang Mi is really lucky..."
Bei Gongchun looked at his swollen tiger's mouth, then looked at the infantry who were surrounding him, and said in a deep voice, "Let's go!"
As he spoke, Bei Gongchun led the Xiliang cavalry to withdraw, but did not continue to entangle.
Liu Tai did not dare to continue to quarrel with Bei Gongchun. After all, the army was defeated, and it would be great to save Wang Mi.
Fortunately, the other party is not determined to fight. Otherwise, even if Bei Gongchun can be killed if they continue to fight, if Wang Yan's main force leads up, they will not be able to escape.
With these thoughts in his mind, Liu Tai rode his horse forward quickly and said to Wang Midi, "Uncle Wang, you're still fine!"
Wang Mi breathed a sigh of relief, smiled at Liu Tai, and said, "Tai'er, it's thanks to you that I saved my life today!"
Liu Tai looked sincere: "Uncle Wang is a very lucky man. Even if Tai is not here today, he will definitely be able to escape.
Not to mention that since my father's death, Uncle Wang has treated me like a son. I regard Uncle Wang as my father, so why would I say such unreasonable words!"
If it weren't for Liu Tai who really didn't know the historical celebrities of the Wei, Jin, Southern and Northern Dynasties, he would have taken the opportunity to kneel down and say, "If I don't give up, I would like to worship you as my adoptive father."
Of course, what Liu Tai said to Wang Mi was not nonsense.
Since his father's death, he has followed Wang Mi to escape, and he has gained rich experience in defeat along the way.
Every time he experienced a defeat, Wang Mi always escaped, making Liu Tai wonder if he had any special escape skills.
While Liu Tai was thinking in his mind, another rebel army under the banner of King came towards this direction.
This defeated army seemed to have some structure, but it was not disorganized after all. The leader was quite handsome. When he saw Wang Mi on horseback, he immediately patted his horse and came over, saying earnestly:
"Brother? Brother! When Zhang saw Bei Gongchun pursuing him, he wanted to stop him. Unexpectedly, when he saw our army, he not only did not fight with us, but also took the initiative to avoid it!"
"It's all Tai'er's credit!" Wang Mi sighed: "It seems that Bei Gongchun suffered a secret loss, no wonder he left so fast!"
Liu Tai puffed up his chest proudly and cooperated: "Second uncle, you are late, Beigong Junke was beaten away by me!"
"Look what you can do!" Wang Zhang heard Liu Tai's words and turned around and hammered Liu Tai's chest armor.
Wang Zhang turned his head and said seriously to Wang Mi, "Brother, this Luoyang city is strong and the Jin army is elite. I'm afraid I won't be able to take it down for a while!"
"Let's gather the remaining troops first, cross the Yellow River, and then discuss it!" Wang Mi nodded and said calmly.
Being defeated all the way from Shandong to Xuchang, and then all the way from Xuchang to Luoyang, isn't it just a crushing defeat? Gathering the remnants of the army and summoning the old troops, this kind of thing has long been customary.
And even for the old generals, it is not as if they have high talent in leading troops, but if they have not practiced their escape skills, they may have buried their bones in Qingzhou and will not be able to come to Youzhou.
.
Soon as Liu Tai expected, the remnants of the army that had been defeated by the imperial court quickly gathered around Wang Mi and Wang Zhang.
Liu Ling, Wang Sang, Cao Yi, Zhao Gu and others took their remnant troops and ran to the edge of the Yellow River.
After Wang Mi set up camp again on the edge of the Yellow River, he personally led a group of troops to guide and appease the defeated armies that were retreating one after another. Everyone gathered together and began to discuss the next move.
Liu Tai had long been accustomed to this scene, and the troops that Wang Mi had brought up were quite impressive.
Almost everyone with soldiers can basically be regarded as a hilltop.
So when the war is really under command, let alone the execution of orders and prohibitions, it would be a blessing to be able to implement the order from Wang Mi's order to the charge of the soldiers within an hour.
To be honest, the Jin army called this army moth thieves, which is not wrong after all.
Therefore, facing the Jin army led by Wang Yan, the rebel army relied on their bravery to support themselves.
But when Bei Gongchun led a hundred cavalry and rushed in from behind, the army that was still in a stalemate with Wang Yan collapsed.
Now, all the team leaders, big and small, are sitting in a circle, and although Liu Tai is only twelve years old, he also has a chair here.
It's not that Liu Tai was born with supernatural powers. Except for Liu Ling, almost no one in the entire military camp could defeat this chair.
But because Liu Tai was the son of the previous rebel leader Liu Bogen, Liu Bogen's uprising was suppressed by Wang Jun, and Liu Bogen died in battle.
Liu Tai and Wang Mi managed to escape. Wang Mi not only took care of Liu Tai, but more importantly, Wang Mi rebelled again. Especially after capturing Xuchang, he gave Liu Tai a thousand-man army to control the military. However,
Liu Tai has to pull the manpower himself.
Then Liu Tai relied on his natural supernatural power, coupled with his constant "I am the queen of Qingzhou Zhang Wang", and his consciousness that he would not recruit troops after only recruiting three to five hundred people, and he became the hilltop where the rebel army relied on Wang Mi.
p>
As for whether Liu Tai is the queen of Qingzhou Zhang Wang, I'm sorry, not to mention Wang Mi, even Liu Tai himself is a little unsure of the context.
But after all, Liu Tai is only twelve years old, and he doesn't seem to be old enough to lie. Plus, there is nothing wrong with having a descendant of the royal family of the Han Dynasty here.
All these make Liu Tai qualified to sit here and listen, but if he wants to interrupt, no one will listen.
"Brothers, today we suffered a setback at Jin City because of my poor command. Here I apologize to all brothers, especially the brothers who died in battle!" Wang Mi saluted to the commanders of all sizes.
p>
Naturally, everyone stopped Wang Mi from saluting and said that it was not that the commander was too incompetent, but that the Jin army was too powerful.
After all, the siege of Luoyang this time was more or less with the intention of giving it a try. At most, we would die, but we are thieves, and our lives are not valuable.
After a set of procedures was completed, Wang Micai said slowly, "Now our brothers are in trouble in attacking Luoyang. When the Jin court reacts and dispatches elite soldiers to besiege us, I am afraid that we may not have the opportunity to sit down and discuss today.
Now I ask everyone to speak freely and help brothers plan a way out."
When everyone heard this, they all spoke one after another.
"Commander Wang, now that the Jin army is strong and the morale of the First Army is even stronger today, shall we turn back to Shandong?" Cao Yi spoke first.
"The Jin court sent Gou Xi to Shandong. His military skills are comparable to Han Bai's. If we go, we are afraid that the sheep will fall into the tiger's mouth." Wang Sang said worriedly.
When Liu Tai heard Wang Sang's words, he couldn't help complaining. Who is this passerby? Can anyone follow Han Bai?
However, when they heard this person's name, several people present turned pale, and a bit of silence filled the air for a while.
Obviously, several people present were very wary of Gou Xi and obviously did not want to face this person.
Liu Ling shook his head and said: "I can't even defeat this Jin army, let alone Gou Xi. I won't go anyway!"
Obviously, Liu Ling's words represented the attitude of the vast majority of the rebel leaders, and they all agreed for a while.
At this time, Liu Tai pulled Wang Zhang, who was sitting not far from him, and whispered, "Second uncle? Is this Gou Xi very strong?"
To be continued...
