Northern Dynasties Imperial Industry

The Baibao sergeants are the soldiers of the Suwei who were selected by Qi Lord Gao Yang among the people of Liufang Xianbei. It is said that each of them has the courage to fight against a hundred, and their performance on the battlefield at this moment is enough to match the elite. name.

There were only a few thousand Baibao sergeants who were ordered to line up on the south bank of the Tongda River to serve as supervisors, but on the battlefield on the north bank, there were tens of thousands of people who were panicking and eager to flee south.

These people swarmed south, and the impact of the people alone was already quite powerful, not to mention the many people who were eager to survive and brandished weapons to attack and kill.

However, no matter how these people attack, the defense line along the river formed by the Baibao sergeants is still extremely stable. There are only a few people who can break through and retreat. Even if two or three people occasionally break out of the military formation, they will be dismissed immediately. The formation captured and forced him back. When there are really stubborn people who are hard to dissuade, the Baibao sergeants can only wield their swords and kill them outside the formation to deter other people who are fleeing outside the formation.

The retreating people in Battlefield Mountain were already frightened and ambitious people. They didn't dare to fight and kill the enemy as recommended by the king's orders, so how could they be the opponents of the one-in-a-hundred-to-one-hundred-guarantor sergeants.

The enemy army obviously planned to chase and expel these defeated soldiers one after another to attack the Chinese army camp and military formation on the south bank. However, due to the strength of the Baibao sergeants, this plan failed to succeed. Many defeated soldiers were blocked and killed, and their corpses almost filled the Tongda Waterway.

Because they had not been able to break through the defense line on the south bank with rout, the Wei army's offensive on the north bank could only be temporarily slowed down, and they did not continue to go straight down and sweep thousands of troops.

Although the crisis was temporarily blocked, there was no joy on Gao Yang's face, especially when he saw the corpses of soldiers piled in the Tongtan water. His face turned livid and he cursed angrily: "These thieves are wasting the country's food." "Look, when it comes to fighting, you are too timid to fight and dare not kill the thief, but you want to stir up chaos. You deserve to die! It's always commendable to die in battle, but it's not a pity to die like this!"

He didn't feel sorry for the soldiers who died, but he was angry that these people would rather run back and be killed by the supervising soldiers than kill the enemy on the battlefield. These stupid and cowardly people are worthless and hateful even if they die!

At this time, on the north bank of the Tongdan River, the defeated Qi army, unable to advance or retreat, was attacked by the north and the south and forced into a small space. The scene was extremely chaotic, with various people and horses roaring, wailing and wailing in a miserable manner.

In the Wei army's formation, Li Tai saw that the Qi army on the south bank was holding on to the river line, and the defeated soldiers on the north bank were forced out of the formation. Even if they attacked again, they would only increase the number of killings. It would be difficult to defeat the enemy's central army with these disorganized masses. For protection, he raised his hand and ordered the offensive to be suspended. The armies' battle formations were slightly reorganized, while he moved forward a little distance surrounded by his own soldiers.

"I would like to inform the Jinyang disciples that we are here to kill the thieves who have stolen the country, not to kill you. I can forgive Wei Can and other traitor generals for abandoning their weapons and returning to justice, not to mention that Cao Cao has no great evil in his heart. , You are forced to follow the thieves! You are not guilty of any serious crime, and there is no need to pay for it with your life. You should abandon your weapons and leave on your own. If you are still in the formation and prevent me from killing the thieves, you will die without complaint! After three drums, continue the attack! "

Li Tai shouted to the miserable and panic-stricken soldiers of the Northern Qi army on the other side, and then ordered the soldiers to retreat a certain distance to give the Qi soldiers some space to leave the battlefield. He also did not forget to stimulate Gao Yang on the other side. , the officer shouted towards the opposite side: "Master of thieves, please don't leave. If you come back to fight after the group of disciples have retreated, you will be killed here!"

Not to mention the defeated Qi troops on the battlefield on the north bank who were still shocked and confused and didn't know where to go. Gao Yang, the leader of Qi on the south bank, was extremely angry when he saw this and heard what he said. He pointed at the opposite side and yelled: "How dare you betray your favor by being a coward?" The crowd is here! Bring my horse, I will personally go to the formation to kill the Qiang thieves! Pass on my military orders, anyone who dares to abandon their weapons and leave will be punished!"

"Your Majesty, calm down, please calm down! This is a treacherous plot by the Qiang thieves to drive a wedge between the people above and below. The followers in the north are already frightened and frightened. If you still threaten them, you will only force them to surrender to the enemy. It is better to send another group of troops to build a building at the mouth of the river. Floating across the river to lead the masses south, to comfort the hearts of the masses..."

Seeing that the emperor was furious and out of control, all the generals here were also panicking. Xu Yuan, who had been discussing the matter before, hurriedly stepped forward to give advice.

At this moment, Gao Yang was somewhat confused about right and wrong. After hearing what Xu Yuan said, he immediately took away the soldier's head, pointed at him condescendingly and said angrily: "Those thieves are defeated, they all deserve to die! You You actually advised me to divide my troops and prevent me from joining the battle to kill the thieves. What treacherous plot could there be?"

Seeing this, Xu Yuan hurriedly knelt on the ground and did not dare to shout. And Gao Yang's eyes passed over the generals one by one. Wherever he could see, all the generals lowered their heads and did not dare to look at each other.

At this time, the enemy's war drums on the other side of the bank were already beating. The rapid roar made it difficult for Gao Yang to calm down and think about things. However, when he saw that many sergeants on the north bank had dropped their weapons and followed the path given by the Wei army towards the battlefield, they were still unstoppable. When he reached the river mouth valley, he couldn't help but the anger surged on his face, and he murmured: "These thieves really, really dare to surrender to the enemy on the battlefield... They are not afraid of my life? They are really not afraid..."

For those who are superior, downward perception is a relatively rare ability. Especially for people who are naturally arrogant and stubborn, it is even more difficult for them to acquire this ability and they do not bother to use it.

Gao Yang was used to taking the lives of his countrymen and even ignored that survival was a human instinct and power. When he saw the defeated troops on the battlefield dropping their weapons and giving up resistance in order to survive, he felt incredible for a moment. How dare these people do such a thing in front of him?

The dissatisfaction in the war had already made him feel frustrated, and now the soldiers were openly rebelling in front of him, which made him feel a sense of panic about the loss of authority. This feeling of fear that grew from the bottom of his heart made him unable to avoid it, and various chaotic thoughts that aggravated his panic could not help but emerge in his mind.

"Where are King Pingyuan and King Anding? Why are they so late in arriving?"

He looked around, suddenly opened his mouth and shouted, using an angry and accusatory tone to cover up the panic in his heart: "Could it be that they are also afraid of the thieves and dare not come to help?"

This accusation is somewhat unreasonable. At this time, it has not been too long since he sent the order to return to the Chinese army, and it will take a certain amount of time for other troops to move their positions, especially when He Baren's right army is still fighting on the enemy's flank. It's harder to get back in time.

But at this moment, none of the generals dared to defend him. Some of the quick-thinking generals took the opportunity to ask for orders to urge the reinforcements to arrive quickly, hoping to temporarily leave the emperor's sight, which could be regarded as not erecting a dangerous wall. Come down to avoid any unnecessary disaster.

Gao Yang impatiently waved his hand and urged the general to leave quickly. When his eyes fell back to the battlefield on the north bank again, many more soldiers abandoned their weapons and left. This inevitably made him feel more irritable, and he simply ordered the attack without waiting for the arrival of reinforcements.

On the battlefield at this time, the Wei army only had more than 10,000 troops, and they still did not have an advantage in numbers. Even so far, the number of defeated people on the north bank still far exceeds the number of Wei troops who attacked. As a result, they have no fighting spirit to fight back, and they just look helpless and dejected.

This is one of the reasons why Gao Yang is particularly angry at these soldiers. He does not feel that his threats and intimidation are also one of the reasons for breaking down the psychological defenses of the frontline soldiers.

In his opinion, as long as these soldiers can withstand the pressure of the general dying in battle, and are not swayed by the Wei army's monstrous words, and organize a spontaneous resistance, they will still be able to fight, even if they cannot turn defeat into victory, at least they can The enemy army was greatly depleted, leaving behind a weak division that could be defeated in one blow.

As a result, these people couldn't fulfill even such a simple request, and they really deserved to die!

Where the two sides fought, the Chinese army led by Gao Yang on the Northern Qi side was the more than 80,000 divisions he brought from Jinyang. After Duan Shao of the left route army divided his troops to defend against the enemy elsewhere, he still had more than 70,000 troops. He divided more than 10,000 horse envoys and sent them to He Baren to form the right route army.

On the first day of the battle, due to the Qi Company of the Left Route Army underestimating the enemy's aggressive advance, the division and brigade were defeated. In a rage, Gao Yang transferred most of Duan Shao's Left Route Army away, leaving him with less than 30,000 troops. Then during the battle, the Chinese army gradually sent an additional 20,000 troops to the right route army.

As the battle progressed on the frontal battlefield, more than 40,000 soldiers were invested one after another. Deducting some of the casualties and injuries, before the battle collapsed in the front, there were still nearly 30,000 soldiers on the entire North Bank battlefield.

Therefore, the Chinese army camp on the south bank of the Tongtan River still has more than 60,000 soldiers ready for combat, and it still has an absolute advantage in terms of military strength.

This is the reason why Gao Yang dared to treat tens of thousands of people on the battlefield on the north bank as abandoned sons. Although the two wings of troops have not yet withdrawn from the Chinese army, the strength of the Chinese army alone is enough to launch a counterattack on the other side.

But these are just superficial data. In fact, the bad impact of the defeat in the battle on the north bank just now is not only the loss of men and horses on the front line. The Wei army repeatedly shouted that Jinyang City had been breached, and the scene of the Baibao sergeants blocking the river to intercept the friendly army Pao Ze left an indelible impression on the hearts of the Chinese army officers and soldiers!

Now the order to attack was issued again, and the generals returned to their respective groups to gather the troops. However, the corpses of Paoze filling the ravines in the river were still in front of them. The speed of these Qi army officers and soldiers in preparing for the battle slowed down, and they were still unable to finish. Attack.

At the same time, the three drum orders of the Wei army on the north bank had ended, and at this time most of the Qi army jammed along the north bank of the Tongtan River had dispersed.

At this moment of life-and-death decision-making, one side was the friendly army that waved the butcher knife at them mercilessly, and the other side was the enemies who, although not many, were willing to release goodwill to them and give them a glimmer of hope. The vast majority of them ended up I followed my instinct and made my own choice.

Just like back then, they and their fathers chose to follow Gao Huan in Xindu Jianyi and crusade against the Erzhu family in order to survive, but this time the choice was contrary to that of the past, and Qi Lord Gao Yang, who forced them to make this choice, Just like the Erzhu family who was cruel and unkind to the citizens of the six towns back then!

As the path of attack was cleared, Li Tai did not hesitate to move forward because the enemy was outnumbered. When the drum orders stopped, he drew his saber and pointed forward, shouting loudly: "Hebei Road Shen , Heaven and man are all outraged! We are facing great evil, and we must kill the enemy! We will not fight back until we defeat the enemy!"
