3Chapter 595

Before the Sichuan Army led by He Rushui arrived in Fengyang, Tang Yin's message had been sent to Bai Qing. In the message, Tang Yin frankly reported the Sichuan Army's movements, saying that the 200,000 Sichuan Army was marching towards Fengyang.

, Bai Qing needs to be prepared to face the enemy.

Seeing Tang Yin's report, Bai Qing broke out in a cold sweat. Two hundred thousand Sichuan troops were coming towards her. How could she resist? She hurriedly returned to Tang Yin and asked him for help.

Soon, Tang Yin sent another message, telling Bai Qing that as long as she could lead her headquarters to hold off the Sichuan Army for three days, reinforcements would appear by then and cooperate with her inside and outside to attack the Sichuan Army.

Bai Qing could only smile bitterly at Tang Yin's reply. She was not sure that she could withstand the Sichuan Army for three hours, let alone three days. Among all countries, the An Army's combat power was recognized as the weakest, and the Sichuan Army's combat power was undoubtedly the weakest.

He is the strongest, so how can we fight this battle?

But no matter how thick-skinned she was, she was too embarrassed to ask for help from Tang Yin again and again. After all, the An army also had 200,000 troops, and Fengyang's city defense relied on it. Finally, Bai Qing made a decision, and it would only take three days. At worst, she would have to fight the Sichuan army.

Every fish is dead and the net is broken

She sent an order to the whole army to consolidate Fengyang's city defense. At the same time, she summoned the generals and took out Tang Yin's biography for everyone to circulate.

When General An looked at it, their faces turned pale with fright. It was impossible to withstand the Sichuan Army of 200,000 soldiers for three days with only their own strength. General An was talking about it, saying anything.

In the end, people reached a consensus that if this battle can be fought, we will fight. If we can't fight, we will be ready to abandon the city and escape at any time.

Bai Qing had nothing to say about the lack of confidence and lack of fighting spirit in her generals. Even she, the commander-in-chief of the entire army, had no confidence. She even believed that it was impossible for her side to withstand the Sichuan Army for three days.

To make a long story short, a few days later, 200,000 Sichuan troops arrived in Fengyang in a mighty force. However, with the arrival of the Sichuan troops, the An army's plan to abandon the city and escape was completely in vain.

Two hundred thousand Sichuan troops were stationed around the city and surrounded Fengyang City in the form of a company camp. Obviously, the Sichuan army did not intend to give the troops in the city a chance to escape. Looking at the posture, it was obvious that they wanted to annihilate all two hundred thousand troops.

Anjun

Under normal circumstances, when the strength of both sides is equal, it is almost idiotic for one side to choose to encircle the city. The strength is so dispersed that it is easy for the opponent to defeat the enemy. However, against the An army, the Sichuan army is too confident.

, we are not afraid that An Jun will take the initiative to attack, even if An Jun is huddled in the city and cannot come out.

He Rushui's choice to set up camp around the city was not because he was too big, but because he didn't think highly of An Jun at all. Of course, there was nothing remarkable about An Jun.

As the Sichuan army encircled the city, the soldiers of the An army in Fengyang City all felt that a disaster was coming. Usually what they were best at was running away. Now Fengyang is surrounded by Sichuan troops on all sides. They have no way to run. At this time, they are facing

There are only two choices left for Anjun, either fight to the end or surrender.

Bai Qing's character has the traditional cowardly side of Anjun, but she is also a veteran nobleman of Anguo, with the arrogance and dignity of the nobles flowing in her bones. If she is asked to surrender, she would rather choose to die, so for her

, there is no other choice in this battle, only a desperate fight.

But Bai Qing also knew very well that the mood of surrender had spread among the army. If he wanted to withstand the Sichuan army for three days, and when the reinforcements arrived, he had to make the soldiers completely give up the idea of ​​surrender. How to do this?

For this reason, Bai Qing racked her brains and took great pains. After much thinking, she finally came up with a plan. That night, she found a subordinate named Gao Wu and asked him to lead three thousand death squads to fight.

With the flag of surrender, she approached the Sichuan camp in the middle of the night. When the Sichuan army received the surrender, she suddenly launched an attack and disrupted the Sichuan army's camp defense. Then she took the opportunity to lead the entire army and went out of the city to attack suddenly. Taking advantage of the Sichuan army's unstable footing, she attacked first.

Catch them off guard

Gao Wu received the order and went back to prepare. At midnight, he followed Bai Qing's instructions and led three thousand dead soldiers. Each of them tied a white belt on his arm and held a white flag, quietly

After leaving Fengyang, we headed straight to Sichuan Camp on the opposite side.

The Sichuan Army was not surprised at all by the An army who came out of the city late at night to surrender, because this was the usual behavior of the An army when encountering strong enemies. He heard that there were quite a few An army people who came to surrender. He Rushui paid great attention to it.

Come out and pick him up in person

As a result, as soon as these An army dead soldiers were put into the Sichuan camp, they revealed their hidden weapons one after another, catching the unsuspecting Sichuan army around them by surprise. At least hundreds of Sichuan soldiers were killed and wounded in An.

Under a surprise attack by the army

He Rushui, who was nearby, was furious and immediately ordered to kill these An army. The Sichuan army, who had not recovered their senses, moved quickly and dispatched their troops. In the blink of an eye, the three thousand soldiers headed by Gao Wu were killed.

An army of dead soldiers surrounded them

Next, the two sides started a life-and-death hand-to-hand battle. The dead soldiers of the An Army were also really brave. They were all fearless of death and did not lose in hand-to-hand combat with the Sichuan Army.

But no matter what, they only have 3,000 people. Where are the tens of thousands of Sichuan army opponents? As the battle continued, the 3,000 An army dead soldiers were cut down to the ground one after another.

The battle between the two sides lasted for nearly an hour, but until the death, Gao Wu and the An Army death squads did not wait for Bai Qing and their main army. In the end, Gao Wu and the three thousand An Army death squads were outnumbered and were killed by tens of thousands of people.

The Sichuan army was completely wiped out, and no one survived

Still angry, He Rushui ordered the soldiers to cut off all their heads and hang them on their own wall so that the An army in the opposite city could see clearly. This was a trick on their own side.

The outcome, this is a lesson for those who pretend to surrender

When it got daylight, the defenders in Fengyang City saw a long row of bloody heads hanging on the wall of the Sichuan Camp opposite. People didn't understand what was going on, so they immediately ran back to the city and reported to Bai Qing.

The deaths of Gao Wu and the Three Thousand Death Squadron were deliberately designed by Bai Qing. Although it was expected, she still felt very sad.

After some pretentious 'investigation', she finally confirmed that the people who were brutally killed by the Sichuan Army were our own soldiers who secretly left the city and surrendered last night. It can be seen that surrendering to the Sichuan Army is a dead end, and the Sichuan Army has no intention of giving us a way to survive.

The news quickly spread among the An army. It can be said that the officers and soldiers of the An army from top to bottom were like mourning. They ran away. There was no way to escape. Surrender. The Sichuan army still did not accept the surrender. What should we do?

At the cost of one general and three thousand dead soldiers, Bai Qing successfully dispelled the surrender mentality of the An army officers. Regardless of whether people were willing or not, they could only fight to the death, and there was no other way out.

Just as Liang Qi and Ziying said, as a woman, Bai Qing must be able to achieve the position of commander-in-chief of an army. She must be outstanding, but she is not forced to do so.

Now that Bai Qing has no way out, she really shows the decisiveness and decisiveness of an excellent commander. She sacrifices a small part to save the majority. It may seem cruel, but it is effective.

The Sichuan Army rested for a day, and the next day officially launched a strong attack on Fengyang. The Sichuan Army's attack was launched from all directions. No one side was the main attack, and which day was the secondary attack. Judging from its momentum, it was to comprehensively capture Fengyang.

The An army, which had been cornered, desperately resisted against the strongest Sichuan army. The soldiers of the An army were afraid and lacked confidence, but no one retreated or fled, because at this time, people knew in their hearts that resisting desperately would result in death.

But if the enemy breaks through the city, he will eventually die. Instead of sitting back and waiting for death, he might as well kill a few more enemies as a back-up.

Motivated by this mentality, Anjun behaved extremely tenaciously, fought bravely, and never flinched even to the point of death.

Just as Liang Qi and Ziying thought, once the soldiers of the An army had the fighting spirit to fight against all odds, it would be very difficult for the Sichuan army to defeat them.

The An army was so well-equipped that the soldiers stood on the city wall, and the arrows shot from below could not hurt them at all unless they hit a weak spot on their bodies. On the other hand, their counterattack could inflict damage to the Sichuan army below the city.

Cause huge damage

I thought it would be an easy battle, but the Sichuan army attacked hard all morning and failed to take half a step to the city. Instead, they suffered heavy casualties.

By noon, the attacking Sichuan army began to gradually retreat. Next, it was the turn of the heavy trebuchets to launch a violent bombardment of Fengyang's city defenses.

The attack by the trebuchets lasted for half an hour. The retreating Sichuan army returned to the battlefield and continued to attack the two sides. The two sides fought for more than an hour. The Sichuan army still failed to break through the Fengyang city defense and retreated from the battlefield again. The heavy trebuchets resumed their operations.

long range strike

The Sichuan army's offensive was repelled, and then repelled. In this cycle, manpower and large-scale ordnance were put into battle in shifts.

At the beginning, the An army was inexperienced and suffered heavy casualties from the heavy trebuchets of the Sichuan army. Later, the An army also mastered the rules of the Sichuan army. As soon as the attacking Sichuan army retreated, the An army on the top of the city also immediately retreated.

City wall, hide under the wall, leaving only a small force on the wall to observe the enemy's movements

In addition to comparing the combat power of both sides, the offensive and defensive battle between the two sides is actually also a battle of fighting spirit.

The An army, which was driven to a dead end, worked together and fought with 200,000 soldiers. Relying on Fengyang's solid city defenses, they managed to withstand the Sichuan army's strong attack for a whole day.

When the sky darkened, the Sichuan army, which had fought fiercely for a day and achieved no results, was finally forced to retreat to the Sichuan camp.

Back in the camp, even He Rushui felt ridiculous. Both sides had equal strength, but their one-day strong attack was actually resisted by the An army. It was unprecedented. He was also the first of his kind to the Sichuan army. It was really a shame and a great humiliation.

This battle was a great shame and humiliation for the Sichuan Army, but for the An Army, it was an inspiring and almost crazy battle.
