Chapter 131 Crash
An irreversible collapse appeared on the battlefield east of Baqiao. Because Guangtong Cang was burned, the morale of the Sui army soldiers was not high. After several days of attack, they failed to take down Baqiao, which made their fighting spirit even more sluggish.
The food supply has begun to go wrong, and the porridge I drank for two meals a day is getting thinner and thinner. Everyone knows that Guangtong warehouse has finished, but they are lucky enough to think that if they take Chang'an, they will not be hungry.
I fought for several days. Not to mention Chang'an, I couldn't even rob the Baqiao. Now I heard that Tongzhou's backbone was cut off. All fools knew that the situation was wrong.
There is no food and is attacked from both sides. Everyone has family members to support. It is boring to fight a battle that will definitely be defeated. Even if you make a contribution, there is no place to receive rewards. Who is still fighting with your surname Yang?
The soldiers didn't know a single word and had no knowledge. They could all think of this. The generals were even more thorough. Zhou Jun shouted "Tongzhou trapped", so Tongzhou really fell? What if it was a fraud?
So what? What does the Doom of the surname Yang have to do with me?
After so long outside Chang'an City, many generals have become familiar with the conditions offered in the city. The reason why they have waited for so long is nothing more than waiting and watching to maximize their interests.
If it is too early, it will not work. Maybe Zhou Jun can't stay in Guanzhong, and then he will have to follow the other party and run away in shame. If it is too late, it will lose the price, so you must seize the opportunity.
That is, you can ensure that you are profitable and not in danger of life, and then make great contributions.
What is a great achievement? It is also true that he turned against the king's army and helped defeat the Sui gang.
It doesn’t matter whether Tongzhou falls or not. Anyway, Guangtongcang is really over, so there is only an excuse now. Now Zhou Jun is shouting in front of the battle that "it’s just today, just today" is the best excuse.
The Sui army formation collapsed instantly, and more and more Sui army generals began to turn against each other, even if they were not for the sake of glory and wealth, they were also for the sake of saving their lives.
No one wants to be the stepping stone for others to "anyway", so no matter whether they have privately colluded with the Zhou army in advance, everyone is now "repentant" and is scrambling to be "loyal ministers anyway".
The lurking fire was ignited, and no one would work hard for the Yang family anymore. What is the surname of the court doesn’t matter. The key is that the interests of the family are guaranteed. It is true: turn against each other and capture Yang Guang!
After arresting Yang Guang, this is a great achievement. Maybe it is possible to be awarded a title. This is much more cost-effective than cloth, money and food!
Yang Guang, the King of Jin, who was in the central army, got on his horse and left surrounded by guards. The cavalry of the Bingzhou Army followed closely. As for the infantry, they could only let them die. Looking back at the boiling battlefield, Yang Guang felt extremely sad.
The defeat was like a mountain of fallen. These five words are often seen in books. They may not have any feelings at that time. Now that they are in the scene, Yang Guang only feels crying without tears.
The Zhou army burned Guangtong Cang and later ambushed Li Hun, the governor of Tongzhou. He had already made arrangements to ask Dugu Kai, the chief supervisor of Yanzhou who went south to reinforce, to deal with the Zhou army. As a result, the other party actually joined forces with the Zhou army, causing greater damage.
Dugu Kai, aren’t you a loyal minister of the Dugu family? You have also rebelled!
Thinking of this, Yang Guang suddenly came to his senses: Didn’t their Yang family also be loyal ministers of the Great Zhou back then? What is this? Repay for one reward?
But I'm unwilling to give up!
Recover Chang'an, ascend to the throne and become emperor, clean up the rivers and mountains, unify the world, and become an emperor who has left his name in history.
The young King of Jin, Yang Guang, ended his dream at the beginning. He failed to avenge his parents and brothers. The commander's army was easily shattered like a native chicken and a dog. The defeat was over. The Sui Kingdom was over and the Yang family was over.
Thinking of this, Yang Guang was completely disappointed. He was almost broken. He pulled out his sword and was about to wipe his neck. He was stopped by Yu Qingze, who was riding a horse and following him: "Don't do this! The battle situation has not yet reached the end of the end. If you retreat to Huazhou and the King of Qin, you still have room for revolt!"
......
In the chaos, the general manager of Binzhou, Da Xi Changru, commanded his troops to fight to the death. The collapse of the army could no longer be restored. His old subordinates were trapped here. As the chief general of the army, there was no reason to escape alone.
The cavalry fled very quickly, but the infantry could run beyond four legs. Previously, the Binzhou Army was a military supervisor to suppress the formation and scattered all over the formation. As a result, the army collapsed too quickly, which was beyond everyone's expectations.
Da Xi Changru had the opportunity to run away, but he found that his subordinates were trapped in the chaos and turned back. When he was about to gather the soldiers and prepare to retreat, it was too late.
"The general manager is leaving quickly, and the general manager will be cut off from the rear!"
"Stop! The soldiers cannot leave, so I will never escape!"
Looking up, there were enemy troops around. Many retreating Sui soldiers turned against the Zhou army while running. Da Xi Changru was sad and fought for a lifetime, and had never been so cowardly.
It is not a crime of war, it is not a crime of war!
The past is vivid in my mind. Da Xi Changru, who was born as a son of a noble, made many military achievements in the Western Wei and Zhou dynasties during the wars and made great achievements step by step to this day. He used real results to exchange for a real status.
For decades, he had never fought any evil battles. He fought against the invading Turkic army several years ago. As the chief marching officer of the Sui State, Da Xi Changru led two thousand people to fight. He encountered the opponent in Zhou Pan. Although the enemy was numerous and we were few, he was not afraid.
The Sui army was constantly attacked by Turkic cavalry, and the battle lasted for three days and three nights. The arrows were used up and the swords and spears were broken. Da Xi Changru led the soldiers to use fists as weapons to fight with the Turkic soldiers. The bones in their hands were exposed and they killed tens of thousands of enemies.
He has survived such a bad battle, but he can't survive the battle now. The soldiers who fought with the Turks in the past were still by his side, but they were powerless to turn things around.
The defeat was like a mountain of fall, and it was not possible to save it by human power. Da Xi Changru was unwilling to accept it. These soldiers followed him for many years and followed him to the south from Binzhou, but they were gone. Now they are surrounded and at the last moment.
Do you have to fight to the death? But what is the point?
Zhou Bing was surprised that Sui soldiers were defending the enemy here. After surrounding the Sui soldiers, they kept persuading to surrender. Seeing that they did not express their intention to take action, they were stopped.
Several cavalry approached, Da Xi Changru looked up and saw that the first person was his old acquaintance - Liang Shiyan, Duke of Hui.
"Fu Ren, things have come to this point, don't resist stubbornly!"
"Did Mr. Zhu ask me to be a recurring villain?"
Da Xi Changru asked back, Furen was his name, and Liang Shiyan also asked back: "It was not too late to repair the sheep. We followed Taizu for many years, but we were accidentally deceived by Yang Jian that year. Didn't Furen figure it out yet?"
Seeing that he was silent, Liang Shiyan continued, "Eight years ago, Chen's army invaded Huainan, and I was guarding Luliang to the death. At that time, you and Wang Gui led the troops to rescue him. This kind of kindness will be regarded as an opportunity today, so I will repay you."
"You want to be a loyal minister of the Yang family. I won't stop you, but what about these soldiers? What about their wives and children?"
"Now it is not to deal with the Turks, and they want to defend their country, so they are incompatible. The Yang family usurped the great Zhou dynasty, and now the imperial court has regained their hometowns. Everyone is the people of the Zhou Kingdom, so why bother fighting with their lives?"
"Fu Ren! Do you want these veterans of war to die with them for your own selfish desires? What should their families do? Do you have to be confiscated as slaves by the court with the reputation of being a ruthless person?"
Da Xi Changru looked around him, and the soldiers were staring at him blankly, full of begging. Everyone had long lost the determination to die. A few years ago, he could call on the soldiers to defend their country and put life and death behind their backs to fight against the enemy, but what else can I say now?
