Chapter 2005 Yongshou Divergence

Previous page        Return to Catalog        Next page

    Dou Kang was easily convinced by Dou Deming.  Because from the beginning to the end, he did not consider himself to be Li Yuan's courtier. If we use modern terms, he positioned himself as Li Yuan's common partner. Now that they can no longer work together, it is natural for them to break up.

    However, there are still some troops in the army that do not belong to the Dou family.

    One is Li Shuliang's Forbidden Army, and the other is the Forbidden Army commanded by Chai Shao. The two groups add up to more than 10,000 people, accounting for about one-third of the entire army.

    Originally Dou Gui suggested killing Li Shuliang and Chai Shao directly and seizing their troops, but Dou Kang refused.

    In Dou Kang¡¯s view, although Li Yuan is declining, his strength is still there, and it is hard to say whether he can hold on.  If Li and Chai were really killed, it would be equivalent to breaking up with Li Yuan, and there would be much less room for maneuver in the future.

    " Moreover, Li Deliang and Chai Shao were Li Yuan's trusted generals from top to bottom. Even if they captured his army, they might not be used by the Dou family.

    After deliberation for a long time, there was no answer in the end. In the end, Dou Kang decided to use up the two troops as much as possible when breaking through, and then make a decision after breaking through.

    There are tens of thousands of Xue Rengao's troops outside, and Dou Kang does not dare to fight internally.  If you don't get burned, you'll be seeking your own death.

    Early the next morning, Dou Kang summoned the generals to discuss how to break out of the encirclement.

    Dou Kang knew very well that since Li Yuan could send a secret letter to Binzhou City, he would definitely also send a letter to Li Shuliang and Chai Shao. Hiding it from the two of them would easily create a rift between them.

    Sure enough, the two of them had no objections to the breakout. They were not worried like other generals who did not understand the situation. It was clear from a glance that they knew about the matter in advance.

    Everyone has different opinions on how to break through.

    The Western Qin army has many cavalry, while the Tang army has many infantry. Now that they have the city to rely on, they don¡¯t notice anything. But if they leave the city and are followed and attacked by the Western Qin army, the consequences may be unpredictable.

    At this time, Dou Deming suggested that it would be better to use a false surrender strategy to deceive the Western Qin army, and wait until the Western Qin army's defense was relaxed before breaking through.

    Dou Kang also thought this plan was good, but he was afraid that Li Shuliang and Chai Shao might misunderstand, so he deliberately pretended to disagree.

    Li Shuliang also felt that it was inappropriate to pretend to surrender. Although it was a fake surrender, who knew whether it would come true.  However, Chai Shao was astute and knew very well that this plan was highly successful. He also vaguely guessed Dou Kang's thoughts, so he took the initiative to advise Dou Kang to follow Dou Deming's plan.

    Dou Kang happened to take advantage of the donkey under the slope and made a plan to fake surrender.

    Dou Kang sent his younger brother Dou Xi to the Western Qin military camp and surrendered to Xue Rengao.

    In the past few days, Xue Rengao was actually very anxious.

    The food that was supposed to be delivered at the beginning of the month has not been received until now.  The people Xue Rengao sent to Yuanzhou had no useful news.

    There are rumors that the Sui army is attacking Yuanzhou, while others say that the local powerful are rebelling.

    In short, it has been more than a month, and the incident in Yuanzhou has seriously affected Xue Rengao's mood like a haze.

    As for the food and recruits from Qinzhou that were supposed to be sent, they have not arrived yet, which adds a hint of worry to this matter.

    Xue Rengao vaguely guessed that something had happened in Qinzhou and Yuanzhou.

    But Xue Rengao did not dare to retreat. If he retreated like this, the advantage gained by Western Qin would be wiped out, and even Jingzhou might not be able to be preserved in the future.

    Xue Rengao is also a gambler who cannot afford to lose.

    Seeing that the city of Binzhou was destroyed right before his eyes, Xue Rengao still wanted to give it a try.

    So Dou Xi came to ask for surrender, which nourished Xue Rengao's heart just like the rain after a long drought.

    Xue Rengao was not surprised at all by Dou Xi's request to surrender. The entire Binzhou City had no morale and no reinforcements. Defeat was only a matter of time.

    However, Xue Rengao also received news from Dou Xi that the Sui army entered Guanzhong and headed straight for Chang'an. Li Yuan's defeat was not far away.

    Xue Rengao was shocked.

    How is this possible?  Guanzhong is mine.

    Because he was worried that the Sui army would pick up the fruits of victory in this war, Xue Rengao had no doubts about the Dou family's request to surrender, and decided to entrust the Dou family with important tasks.

    Although Xue Rengao is a thug, he also knows that with the Dou family, he can save a lot of effort when entering Guanzhong.

    Dou Xi asked Xue Rengao for a three-day grace period until Dou Kang could clear out the generals who were unwilling to surrender before leading his troops out of the city to surrender.

    Xue Rengao wanted to win over the Dou family, so he agreed to Dou Xi's request.  He even agreed to make Dou Kang the Taibao and King of Fufeng.

    The Western Qin Dynasty originally had fewer literati. After Hao Ai's death, there were no discerning literati around Xue Rengao.

    andMoreover, Xue Rengao was tyrannical and capricious, and no one around him dared to dissuade him.

    ãá reduce 75zh ong we n.com* ãá.  Therefore, even if some people felt that there might be something wrong with this matter, no one came forward to advise Xue Rengao.

    Dou Xi returned to the city and reported the news of his trip to Dou Kang.

    Dou Kang did not break out of the siege that night. Instead, he ordered people to shout loudly in the city, and he kept banging his weapons on the inside of the city gate, pretending to be fighting.

    They even chose two or three locations in the city for fire protection.

    Seeing this, Xue Rengao outside the city thought that Dou Kang was really purging the army, so the defense of Binzhou City became even more relaxed.

    &#29306&#22914&#32&#120&#105&#110&#100&#105&#110&#103&#100&#105&#97&#110&#120&#115&#119&#46&#99&#111&#109&#32&#29306&#2291 4&#  12290 On the night of the second day, Dou Kang took Chai Shao as the vanguard and Li Shuliang as the alliance, and the entire army broke out all the way south.

    To the south of Binzhou City, there are all ravines and loess hills, thousands of ravines and fragments, but they can limit the mobility of the cavalry to the maximum extent.

    The Western Qin army was unprepared and broke out for the Tang army. By the time Xue Rengao reacted, only an empty Binzhou City was left, and the Tang army had already fled far away.

    And Dou Kang was so cruel that he actually had people set fire to the grain depot in the city, leaving nothing for Xue Rengao.

    Everyone headed south, directly to Yongshou.

    Originally, according to the plan, the army should turn towards Jingyang in the southeast direction.

    But Dou Kang suddenly took action and detained Chai Shao and Li Shuliang who came to discuss the matter. He told them bluntly that Fufeng was in danger and he was going to lead his army south to rescue Fufeng.

    For the Dou family, nowhere is as good as their hometown in Fufeng.

    He has tens of thousands of soldiers and controls a county.  Anyone who comes will be able to sell the Dou family at a good price.

    So Dou Kang persuaded the two of them that although the king of Tang had summoned them, there were many soldiers in Jingyang, so there was no need to go all of them.  Fufeng is the escape route for everyone and must be guarded.  Therefore, Dou Kang divided the three armies into two groups, one going south and the other east.  Dou Kang personally led the troops southward, while Chai Shao and Li Shuliang advanced eastward.

    This is also Dou Deming's suggestion. Let's get together and disperse easily. There is no need to break up with each other, and there is no need to worry about Li Yuan's Forbidden Army.  These people are all veterans of Hedong, and it is difficult for the Dou family to control them.

    "The Dou family has a different intention."

    Li Shuliang was furious and wanted to fall out on the spot.  Chai Shao knew better that if Dou Kang dared to show his cards, he had already made up his mind.  At this time, they were under the eaves and had to bow their heads, which angered Dou Kang. He and Li Shuliang even died.

    So Chai Shao happily accepted the order.

    The two sides parted ways from Yongshou, Dou Kang went south, while Chai Shao and Li Shuliang headed east with more than 8,000 people.

    Chai Shao walked southeast along the Ganquan River (today's Singhe River in Shaanxi Province), but he couldn't help but murmur in his heart.

    Mi He 75zhongwen.com Mi.  This battle has reached this point, and it will be even harder to fight in the future
