544 [Yellow River Bloody Battle](2/2)
One landing position after another, large or small, has been rapidly formed.
Tian Jianxiu ordered his nephew: "You lead the people to collect the defeated troops, and I will kill those small formations!"
Tian Jianxiu no longer continued to attack hard, but took advantage of the cavalry and quickly divided his troops to leave the place. Some of the cavalry went to collect the fleeing infantry, while the other part of the cavalry was led by Tian Jianxiu to attack and kill along the river.
Often, twenty or thirty Datong troops would be attacked by thousands of cavalry as soon as they landed on the beach. The number was too small and they could not defend themselves.
The number of Datong soldiers who died in Tian Jianxiu's hands quickly increased to more than 600.
But as the Datong army gathered more and more, it was difficult for Tian Jianxiu to find opportunities, so he could only lead the infantry and cavalry troops upstream. He wanted to go to Fenglingdu to gather troops, and then fight back, because all the Tongguan defenders had passed
river.
Not only did we cross the river, but we were still fighting!
A quarter of an hour ago, Liu Tichun led his troops across the river. After gathering 3,000 people at Fenglingdu, he immediately led his troops to attack downstream without waiting for the entire army to arrive.
After running for a mile, I found the Datong Army's position on the shore, and He Zhen's soldiers were actually gathered together with the Datong Army.
"This guy has surrendered to the enemy again, let me kill him!" Liu Tichun was furious.
He Zhen only has 500 soldiers in hand, and they have just surrendered. The morale and morale of the soldiers are unstable. How can they withstand the attack of more than 3,000 people?
At the moment of the battle, He Zhen's troops were on the verge of collapse.
Fortunately, the Datong Army here has gathered more than 400 people and built simple fortifications, which can barely withstand it for a while.
At this moment, Dang Meng'an and Luo Dai crossed the river and came with their own troops. Together with the troops of another general, the three of them commanded two thousand people.
Seeing that He Zhen was surrounded, the two people who had agreed to surrender together did not dare to take action immediately, and even wanted to give up the idea of defecting.
"General, it's time to make a meritorious service. Do you want to die with Li Zicheng?" The soldiers around Dang Meng'an blurted out such words.
There are also spies in Li Zicheng's army, and they have all come into contact with people like He Zhen, Dang Meng'an, and Luo Dai!
Anyway, Datong Xizhuo will find anyone who is depressed and frustrated.
Seeing that Dang Meng An was still hesitating, Xi Zuo added: "Come out from behind and form a pincer attack. Liu Tichun will definitely be defeated. General, don't miss this good opportunity!"
"Done!"
Dang Meng'an gritted his teeth and said, leading his troops towards the battlefield, shouting from afar: "General Liu, I'm here to help you!"
At this moment, He Zhen's troops had begun to collapse, but they were tightly surrounded and unable to escape. Some people even panicked and jumped into the Yellow River.
He Zhen suddenly despaired. It was too early to defect!
Liu Tichun personally led a reserve force of 500 and stood on the outside to command. There were too many people to engage the enemy anyway. He routed He Zhen's troops and immediately shouted angrily: "Kill this guy!"
He Zhen took a few hard-core soldiers and quickly fled towards the Datong Army.
While escaping, he was kicked down by a Dashun soldier and stabbed with several spears.
This guy who surrendered to Dorgon, then to Li Zicheng, and then to the Datong Army was stabbed to death by an unknown soldier.
He Zhen died with eyes closed. It was really too early for him to switch sides. He would be safe after just one more stick of incense.
After killing He Zhen's tribe, Liu Tichun commanded the army and completely surrounded the remaining Datong army. He turned to look at Dang Meng'an who came to "reinforce" and said to the messenger: "The battle situation here has been decided, let them go downstream
reinforce."
The messenger rushed out immediately: "General Liu has an order..."
Dang Meng'an refused to listen and walked around to the river where he was conferred.
The messenger could only follow him: "General Liu has an order..."
Dang Meng'an rushed behind the friendly army, and the ordering soldier also chased him. The ordering soldier wanted to continue, but Dang Meng'an chopped him to death with a knife, then turned around and said: "I have surrendered to Emperor Zhao, follow me and kill him!"
After saying that, he slashed at the friendly troops in front of him. A Dashun soldier was confused and was killed from behind by Dang Meng'an.
A few soldiers responded immediately, while more soldiers stood there stunned.
Luo Dai led his own soldiers and attacked the friendly troops who were supporting him, causing the two troops to subconsciously kill each other.
There were only a dozen of Dang Meng'an and his soldiers. But they caused astonishing destructive power. The Dashun Army was besieging them and was suddenly attacked from behind. In panic, hundreds of people fled on the spot.
Several more Datong troops on rafts successfully landed nearby and charged towards this place with shouts.
Although Liu Tichun's reserve team quickly came to attack Dang Meng'an, it was too late. The rout had already formed a chain reaction. Nearly half of the three thousand Datong troops fled in panic. The trapped Datong army took the opportunity to counterattack, and unexpectedly
Using less to defeat more, Liu Tichun's troops were all killed.
"I'll kill you!"
Liu Tichun hated Dang Meng An so much that he didn't even think about escaping. He led his loyal soldiers to kill Dang Meng An, risking his own life.
Traitors are worse than enemies!
"Stop him!" Dang Meng'an said in panic.
Half of the soldiers under this guy are chasing down the defeated troops, and the other half are still sleepwalking, not knowing which side to take.:.
The surviving Datong army attacked Liu Tichun from the side.
Liu Tichun still ignored the Datong army and led his soldiers to target Dang Meng'an. These were the soldiers of the old battalion. Dang Meng'an's soldiers could not hold on and fled in disarray.
Dang Meng'an was also fleeing, but was caught up by Liu Tichun and was stabbed in the back.
The armor was not fatal, but Dang Meng'an was even more frightened and jumped directly into the Yellow River.
The water on the shore is shallow and you can't drown.
Unexpectedly, Liu Tichun jumped down and waded into the water to chase Dang Meng'an and chop him down.
Dang Meng'an had no choice but to turn around and fight. After fending off the attack, he shouted anxiously: "Old Liu, surrender with me. The right way is to surrender to Emperor Zhao!"
"I'll kill you!" Liu Tichun became even more angry.
The fierce soldiers under Liu Tichun had the same idea as the general, that even if they died, they would use Dang Meng'an as their backing.
After a battle, Dang Meng'an was killed, and his body floated away along the Yellow River.
