Eight hundred and fortieth eight chapters a crushing defeat

The Dahua army continued to march westward, with 300,000 troops and horses running for ten miles, with a clang of armor and a huge team, all with neat armor and majestic.

Luo Zhaoyun personally led the army to the expedition. He usually communicated with Xiao Yu, Wei Zheng and others about governing the country, and rarely showed up.

At the beginning, Wei Zheng was flattered because he had never been valued and was just a memorial room in the Wagang army. After this time, he was summoned by the emperor himself. After some exchanges, he was deeply infected by Luo Zhaoyun's demeanor and mind. He admired His Majesty Dahua, who became famous in the army and conquered half of the country.

As the exchange deepened, Wei Zheng gradually adjusted his mentality and was no longer restricted. He would also put forward some opinions and suggestions directly.

For matters in the military, each has its own generals responsible for daily affairs. Luo Zhaoyun does not have to do everything himself, but instead uses the intelligence of the civil and military generals.

Generals such as Hou Junji, Xue Wanren, Shi Danai, Qin Qiong, Xue Shixiong, Xu Shiji and other military officers were confident in the abilities of these people, but they were too involved in the training and governance in the army.

Seven or eight days later, the army arrived in Hengshan County.

Liu Heita gathered in the well path with his troops and could no longer wait for Li Tang to rescue him, and he had to fight the decisive battle with the Dahua Army.

He longed for a miracle to happen, just like Han Xin fought against the enemy and defeated the Zhao army in the Jingjing area.

It was not that Liu Heita had never thought of continuing to escape, but that there was the Taihang Mountains behind him, and he had to circumvent Yanmen County. However, the number of soldiers was too large and there was insufficient food and grass, so he could not take them all away. Instead of leaving them for Dahua, it would be better to burn all the jade and stones here and also give Dahua a dying blow, and finally choose to break through.

Seventy or eighty thousand Hebei troops lined up, with guns like a sea of ​​guns, iron armor was cold and dense, with cold expressions on their faces.

Behind the square formation is a river, fighting with the backs!

Liu Heita brought some military generals to fight against Dahua's vanguard army here.

After a moment, the horses in front neighed, the horns roared, countless flags roared, and the sharpened spear and blades flashed with a scorching cold light.

Twenty thousand cavalrymen advanced first, their speed was extremely rapid. The spectacular scene of tens of thousands of war horses neighing hard and galloping in the wilderness was terrifying.

The sound of the sky seemed to shake out the hearts of the Hebei soldiers. Looking at the sandstorm in the distance, the war horses and people mixed into the world, with an extremely shock in desolation.

At this time, the atmosphere in the Hebei Army's square formation was so depressing that it was almost suffocating. Apart from the whistling sound of breath, no one spoke, holding a long soldier in his hand, staring at the enemy in front of him.

Hou Junji, Mai Zhongcai, and Xue Wanbei led the army to fight. After seeing the Qi army formation, a sneer came from the corner of his mouth: "Does Liu Heita want to imitate Han Xin? Unfortunately, he is not Han Xin's reincarnation, and we are not Zhao Guojun!"

"Roar over and kill all Qi soldiers--"

The rumbling sound of horse hooves shook the earth, like muffled thunder flashing, shaking the earth.

Ten thousand horses galloped, and 20,000 cavalry charged together. The momentum was as powerful as dark clouds advancing layer by layer, covering the entire wilderness grassland, enough to press the soldiers on the opposite side into a pancake.

"Kill!" Liu Heita shouted loudly, and the soldiers around him roared angrily at the same time, and instantly burst out murderous aura. With the sharp long spear and gun tip, they blocked it, and cavalry rushed out.

Bang bang bang-

The cavalry collided and pressed against the infantry, and the scene was tragic.

At the confrontation, they tried their best to kill the opponent, and the cavalry kept failing. There were countless Hebei soldiers who fell in pools of blood and were trampled into meat paste by war horses.

The shouts of fighting, shouts and roars were mixed together, and there were sad screams, and there were shadows of spears everywhere, and blood was everywhere. The small mountain and hills and valleys instantly evolved into the Shura field.

In half an hour, both sides invested more and more troops, and Xu Shiji and Qin Qiong's left and right troops also arrived, forming a three-sided encirclement.

Liu Heita lined up with the water and had no way of retreat. He directly ordered the army to resist to the death and defeat the Dahua Army. However, the Chinese army had advanced weapons and equipment, and the iron-armored cavalry holding the Modao was too sharp, so he directly cut the Hebei military formation.

The strength is very different, and the Hebei Army no longer has the fighting spirit, its morale has begun to decline, and there are signs of collapse.

Seeing that the situation was not good, Liu Heita led his personal army to break through and fled to the northwest direction, and had to pass through the pass of Taihang Road and escape.

Due to the rugged mountain road, the army could not catch up, and the 300,000 troops could not cross the Taihang Mountains smoothly. Therefore, there were only two roads: one was to go north to enter Yanmen County, and then to the back of Taiyuan County; the other was to go south, bypass Taihang Mountain, follow the official road in Hedong, enter Shangdang County, and then attack the Li Tang area to the north.

After thinking about it, Luo Zhaoyun decided to divide his troops into two groups. One was to use Xue Shixiong as the main general and allocate a 50,000 troops to attack Yanmen County. At the same time, he mobilized the troops of Zhuo County to go to Yanmen County to reinforce and provide the source of troops.

Before leaving Hengshan County, Luo Zhaoyun drafted an edict to mobilize some imperial examination scholars from Chang'an City to come to Hebei area to appease one, be in charge of local political affairs, register households, measure land, count population, govern local public security, and win the hearts of the people.

Many young military officers graduated from military academy and had to go to cities and towns in batches, and they were just as civil and military as scholars. They served as county magistrates and county magistrates, organized local political systems and operated effectively as soon as possible. In addition to guarding the army, some local male men were recruited in the countryside to act as village brave men and be responsible for defending the security of the village.

Luo Zhaoyun arranged these things before continuing to go south, bypassing the Taihang Mountains, marching into Shangdang County, and officially showing off with Li Tang and killing him.

This is the biggest obstacle for Luo Zhaoyun to unify the world. As long as Li Tang falls, Du Fuwei, Xiao Liang, Fu Gongtuo, Li Zitong and others south of the Yellow River will not be able to compete.
