Chapter 120 Yuwen Wen, right?

??The cavalry attacked unstoppable. The unarmed palace maids, eunuchs and servants left the team in panic and ran into the wilderness. They wanted to avoid the battle, but the whistling cavalry broke away and then ran over the iron hooves and turned into bloody wreckage.

This is not a dangerous place. Both sides of the official road are empty and flat, which is a good place for cavalry to charge. Although there are many entourages in the emperor's carriage, they are just native chickens and tiles in front of the other side.

Even a regular army could only die when they were unable to form a formation. At this moment, personal courage was meaningless. Facing groups of cavalry, they could only be crushed.

The Sui army first broke through the interception of a small number of Zhou cavalry. These brave imperial guards performed their duties, but could not stop the opponent's charge. The left wing of the Sui army first came to the left wing of the Zhou imperial vanguard team, and then turned to the right, rushing into the team like a huge wave slamming the shore.

Screams rang out, bloody aura spread, and those who didn't even have weapons were knocked away like grass. The Sui cavalry easily broke through the team, just like the surging river water that broke the embankment.

The gathered people around the carriage barely survived the first wave of attacks, and the charges of the right-wing cavalry of the Sui army shattered the fragile line of defense in one fell swoop.

People howled wildly, with disheveled hair, and ran toward both sides of the official road. If the gathering of the generals just now gave them the idea of ​​hiding together to avoid the disaster, this idea no longer exists.

Escape to a place with few people, but they can't stay in the team anyway. At the beginning, people showed signs of gathering, but they were scattered like birds and beasts when they were rushed by the Sui cavalry.

The originally long queues have now turned into sections one by one. They are surrounded by people to fight against the attacks of enemy cavalry, but in front of the tide of cavalry, they are like isolated islands.

Yuwen Wen is now in one of the "isolated islands". Looking at the Sui cavalry around him, his heart was cold: He is such a bunch of weak chickens, and he will kneel down after being washed up a few more times!

It is common sense that infantry must form formations against cavalry, so the guards and palace guards try to gather together as much as possible to avoid being easily harvested by cavalry after being left alone.

However, those palace maids, eunuchs, servants, and various entourages could not do it. Faced with the threat of death, they were in a bloody scene. Just watching the cavalry charge, they were so scared that their legs could not move. They finally came back to their senses and wanted to gather together, but were easily dispersed by the other party.

This dispersion was over, and Yuwen Wen realized that something was wrong.

After three years of coming to this era, he was not in such a situation. He had fought many battles and had seen big scenes, but he was all in a large formation, and surrounded by the spearmen he had worked hard to train, and his confidence was guaranteed.

When new recruits enter the camp to start training, the first thing they receive is cavalry impact training. Therefore, Yuwen Wen's soldiers are not afraid of facing cavalry charges, and will never be scared to their legs and become weak. After forming a spear formation, they will become a hedgehog that tigers cannot get out of their mouths.

So in the past three years, Yuwen Wen has never been afraid of cavalry charges. As the saying goes, soldiers are brave, and his soldiers are powerful, so he is very brave, but now it is different. The collapsed team instantly reduces his courage to half.

When the emperor went on a patrol, he accompanied a large number of non-combatants, and let these people face the charge of enemy cavalry. He basically collapsed at one touch. Yuwen Wen had considered this. He volunteered to stay to unite people's hearts and fight hard.

I thought that shouting loudly with the imperial guards would not only bring together the imperial guards and guards, but also allow these non-combatants to have the backbone and join them together, but I still overestimate them.

Those palace maids, eunuchs, and servants cried and fled outside, and were just looking for death, but they also affected the morale of the army. As expected, taking these people in the battle was a burden.

Yuwen Wen had already seen the expressions of the imperial guards and guards around him. Some of them obviously began to shake, perhaps because they were thinking about getting into the crowd and running for their lives. Anyway, everyone was scattered, and there were people everywhere in the plains, so there was a great chance of escaping.

The morale of the army is disintegrating, and if this continues, it will really collapse completely!

The dust was flying, and the Sui cavalry turned their horses on the periphery and prepared for the next round of charge. Now they are still gathering together with carriages as the core, which makes it easy to be defeated one by one.

In this situation, he remembered the Battle of Ningping City in the late Western Jin Dynasty.

In the fifth year of Yongjia, the last elite Jin army abandoned Luoyang's emperor, led by the Taiwei Wang Yan, escorted Sima Lingfei to the Donghai Kingdom with more than 100,000 troops. There were many ministers, royal families and people, and the total number of military and civilians was nearly 200,000.

When the Han army of the Huns Liu Yuan pursued after the news, the Jie general Shi Le led the light cavalry to stop the team in Ningping City, and then a massacre began.

To be fair, the Jin army is not weak and its troops are no less than that of the Han army, but it is a group of sheep with ulterior motives. Wang Yan, who came from a noble family, was a master of Qingtan, and he would not lead the army at all. When the enemy attacked, the generals of various departments were thinking about how to save their lives rather than unite to defend against the enemy.

The Han army raided archery on the periphery of the Jin army. If organized properly, the Jin army could completely fight back. However, more than 100,000 Jin troops did not have a unified order to fight on their own, and the generals and ministers took the lead in fleeing.

Not many were shot to death by arrows, but many times more people died of trampling on each other. The 200,000 soldiers and civilians were in a panic in an instant, and they were defeated one by one by the Hu cavalry of the Han army, and in the end no one ran away.

In this battle, countless soldiers and civilians of Jin were massacred by Hu cavalry, and their bones were exposed in the wild. This was a massacre for Ku County. The Jin court in Luoyang was subsequently destroyed. The royal family of Langya, who traveled south to Jiankang, supported the banner of Jin, and was for the Eastern Jin Dynasty.

Without organization, even a group of lions will be ruined, and Yuwen Wen stayed not to die!

In order to buy time for the emperor to flee south, he had to do everything possible to stop the Sui army's pace. At this time, Yuwen Wen was on the side of the emperor's chariot. He ordered people to blow the trumpet, and he shouted hard to let the people around him lean over.

"I am Yuwen Wen, a royal family member, and everyone is moving closer to the imperial chariot! Protect Your Majesty!"

The emperor has left, but there are still a few people who know it. Most people don’t understand what happened at all. Yuwen Wen wants to let everyone know that the backbone is still there, and he wants to gather people’s hearts.

At least there is another man named Yuwen who didn’t run away and stayed here to live and die together with everyone!!

He was indeed lying about the emperor, but he wanted to give everyone a glimmer of hope. The enemy was on the periphery, and only by moving closer to the jade chariot could he survive. It didn't matter to the palace maids, eunuchs and others. What he wanted to gather was the imperial guards and guards.

Any soldier with a little brain should know that he would gather together to fight the cavalry and run around in the wild like a headless fly. There was only one way to die. Just when he shouted like this, his own people noticed it, and the Sui army would also notice it.

This is just carrying a lantern to go to the toilet - looking for death, but Yuwen Wen can no longer care about so much. If he doesn’t take measures, everyone will be finished!

......

"Main-General, there are many people gathered beside the imperial chariot. Could it be that the little emperor is inside?"

"Main-General, there are hundreds of riders galloping south. Could it be that the escort of the little emperor cannot escape?" A deputy general said, pointing to the flying dust in the south. Yang Su frowned. It was time for him to make a decision.

Where will the emperor be? In the team in front of him, or among the hundreds of cavalry going south?

It is very likely that the little emperor had fled south. If so, his actions would be incredibly fast, but he had to be wary of the other party's fraud. If he deliberately led them away, it would not be impossible.

After estimating the distance, Yang Su judged that his side had hope of chasing the hundreds of cavalry, and immediately said to the deputy general: "You, lead 600 cavalry to chase after him, and you must catch up no matter what!"

"The chief manager, the remaining cavalry are probably insufficient..."

"Go now, I will command it here in person!"

"yes!"

The deputy general led his troops to chase him. Yang Su looked at the chaotic team in front of him and ordered his subordinates to prepare for charge. His eyes fell on the blurred figure on the imperial chariot.
