Chapter 2003 Battle of Luoshui (4)

Previous page        Return to Catalog        Next page

    By the end of the day, the two sides of the Sui and Tang Dynasties had been fighting for several hours.

    The whole battle, in the fierce fighting, turned into a war of attrition.  Especially the Tang army, by the end of the battle, almost all the capable soldiers on the east bank of Luoshui were lost.

    Li Yuan led the charge several times, and all the soldiers around him were killed or injured.

    And the entire Tang army on the east coast did not die in vain.  Under the cover of the suicidal charge of the main cavalry, a considerable number of the main force of the Tang army successfully crossed the river.

    Li Yuan held his breath and fought with his life. In the end, he was almost exhausted.

    Seeing that he could no longer change the fighting situation, Li Yuan also prepared to return west.

    Although crossing the river to return reinforcements can be said to be breaking the formation with his head raised, Li Yuan did not want to die on the east bank of Luoshui.

    So after returning, Li Yuan ordered the front to continue resisting, while he led the remaining group of soldiers toward the river bank.

    Liu Yunfang in the distance became anxious when she saw Li Yuan trying to escape.

    The Sui army has been fighting for so long, keeping a close eye on Li Yuan and letting his troops cross the river. What they want is Li Yuan's head. If he escapes, today's battle will mean victory and defeat.

    "The traitor Li Yuan is right there. Who wants me to kill the traitor?"

    Because the Sui army was attacking from two sides, the entire west of Tongzhou City, on the chaotic battlefield, the space for both sides to move was too narrow.

    Especially tens of thousands of broken troops were mixed among the two warring parties. On one side was the city, on the other side was the water, and on both sides were the enemy troops. There was no way to escape and avoidance, so they had to flee in all directions, making the battlefield even more crowded.

    The cavalry of the Sui army rushed towards Li Yuan with all their strength, and even the defeated troops who were in the way were killed one by one, but the two sides were still far away from each other.

    Seeing that Li Yuan was about to escape to the river bank, he was taken away by boat.

    At this time, a brave general suddenly rode forward and chased him until he was a hundred steps away from Li Yuan.  At this time, the man stretched his bow and nocked an arrow, and shot at Li Yuan. The sharp arrow flew straight into Li Yuan's neck.

    Li Yuan was suddenly hit and fell off his horse.

    This man wanted to add another arrow, but someone had already stepped forward to protect Li Yuan from sight.

    Seeing this, the man stopped moving forward, but shouted very smartly: "Whoever kills Li Yuan will be the prime minister of Ma Yi!"

    No one knows who Xun Xiang is, but the "killer of Li Yuan" is shocking.

    Li Yuan is dead?

    Liu Yunfang stared at the opposite side, but could not see Li Yuan at all.

    Liu Yunfang soon realized that no matter whether Li Yuan was dead or not, he had to make everyone think that he was dead, so that this battle could be fought better.

    So Liu Yunfang ordered the three armies to shout, "Whoever kills Li Yuan will be looking for the prime minister in Ma Yi!"

    Tens of thousands of people shouted together, the shouts shaking the sky.

    Tang Jun on the opposite side was even more confused.

    The Sui army didn't know Li Yuan's situation, and the Tang army on the opposite side didn't know either.

    As for the remaining Tang troops on the battlefield, they completely collapsed because of this news.

    A large number of Tang troops ran to the shore of Luoshui and robbed the boats on the river bank.  As for those who couldn't grab the boat, they jumped directly into Luoshui and prepared to swim across.

    The Sui army followed and pursued them fiercely.

    The most tragic aspect of the whole battle appeared.

    Countless people fell into the water actively or passively, and the bodies of the killed and drowned were floating all over the river.

    In fact, Li Yuan was not dead, not even comatose.  He was shot in the neck, but because he had a neck brace, the injury was not serious.  Falling off the horse immediately is also a subconscious self-protection to prevent being sniped again.

    But Li Yuan did not expect that news of his death would spread among the three armies, and the entire army would eventually collapse.

    At this time, all the ministries were in chaos. Li Yuan and his few dozen people were crowded into the chaos, unable to move forward or retreat.

    Li Yuan looked at this defeated image, and then at the approaching Sui army, feeling anxious and lonely.

    "Could it be that I, Li Yuan, am really going to die here?"

    Li Yuan did not want to die, let alone be captured by the Sui army.

    So Li Yuan picked up his sword and trembled a little before moving it towards his neck.

    " Death was the only option in the ages. Li Yuan could hate himself, but he was unwilling to die. Therefore, although he had no choice but to commit suicide, it felt like a performance.

    ??Probably for the guards around me.

    So a group of soldiers stepped forward and grabbed Li Yuan.

    Pang Qingyun, a close general next to Li Yuan, even shouted: "The world cannot be without me, and the world cannot be without the King of Tang."

    The crowd snatched Li Yuan's sword and fled forward while protecting Li Yuan.

      Pang Qingyun was in front, slashing randomly with his sword. Anyone who stood in the way was killed by Pang Qingyun.  In order to escape for his life, he really didn't even care about his face.

    So among the chaotic army, everyone miraculously opened a way.

    The Sui army was in hot pursuit. At this moment, in the southwest of the battlefield, there was an army swimming across the river and heading straight for the Sui army.

    The person who came was none other than Li Yuan¡¯s son-in-law, Master Feng.

    Master Feng is Li Yuan¡¯s eldest son-in-law. He is from a low background. He married a concubine of the Li family and relied on the Li family for his livelihood before.  After Li Yuan occupied Guanzhong, he was appointed as the young eunuch of the palace.  When Huang Ming marched south, he led four thousand troops out of Pucheng and was responsible for guarding the flanks of Weibei and Tongzhou.  When Li Yuan personally conquered Tongzhou, he was transferred to Xiagui to guard Li Yuan's retreat.

    It can be said that as Li Yuan¡¯s son-in-law and a person of great trust, Master Feng moved wherever he needed.

    This time Chang'an was in danger, and Master Feng was arranged to rescue Chang'an again.  But before he got halfway, Li Yuan sent another message, asking him to choose an opportunity to return to the west bank of Luoshui to cover the main force.

    Master Feng encountered the Sui army in the north of Shayuan.  Master Feng was short of troops and did not dare to fight hard. He had to circle around for several days before he got rid of the opponent and rushed to Luoshui. Unexpectedly, the battle was about to end.

    Master Feng immediately led his troops across the river.  Originally, all the generals under his command advised Master Feng to meet him on the west bank of the river, but when Master Feng heard that his father-in-law was still on the east side of the river, he crossed the river without hesitation.

    After Shaoshi Feng appeared after the Sui army, it largely contained the Sui army that was pursuing Li Yuan. Zhang Wenyuan had to mobilize his troops and turn around to counterattack.

    Taking advantage of this gap, Li Yuan was finally sent back to the west bank of the river and escaped.

    The cooked duck flew away, so Feng Shaoshi, who desperately rescued Li Yuan, was eventually killed by the angry Sui army on the west bank of Luoshui.

    ¡¤¡¤¡¤¡¤¡¤¡¤¡¤

    The sporadic fighting did not end until the evening.

    There were corpses floating all over the Luoshui River and on its banks.  When illuminated by the rays of the sun, the waves sparkled, and there was a strange and peaceful atmosphere.

    ãá reduce 75zhongwe n.com ãá.  The battlefield was deathly silent.

    Although they have experienced countless wars, this is the first time for both Liu Yunfang and Zhang Wenyuan to engage in such a large-scale massacre-like battle.

    In this battle, Li and Tang's more than 100,000 troops were severely defeated. Tens of thousands of people died in the battle alone, and tens of thousands of prisoners were taken.

    Li Yuan fled with only more than 20,000 people, while there were also only more than 20,000 people left in Tongzhou City.
