Ge Shangdu's change of ownership means that there are nearly 20 chieftain officials, large and small, in the four prefectures of Sinan, and none of them is a force outside of Woniuling.
Even if the other native officials were not fully dependent like the Zhan family and Shiqian Yang family, or if the Kigron family and Tongren Yu family were not in full cooperation, at least none of them would dare to deny Wo Niuling's absolute rule over them.
Yu Junting sits in Geshangdu, killing a bloody storm. Tong's family has a history of more than 300 years in the local area. The family's power is so powerful that Yu Junting kills and kills without mercy. Be merciful for a while, but there will be endless troubles later, this is Yu Xiaoyao's philosophy of life.
And Tian Miaowen and Li Dazhuang, who were touring around the country, took advantage of the deterrence caused by this incident, and tightened their control over the forces that were obedient and vigilant, negligent and contemptuous. Ye Xiaotian put himself on the South Sichuan Road to fight against rebellion together, but put his kung fu aside, and successfully landed a Feizier at Geshangdu.
What about his situation at this time
Yang Chaodong came out of Songkan, Yang Weidong came out of Yudu, Yang Zhu came out of Luoguchi, and the three armies came in menacingly. When Yang Zhu arrived in Luo Gucheng, he was blocked by Liu Dadao's deputy general.
Yang Yinglong's Luogu City was really well built. The imperial army who was good at attacking the city took a lot of effort to capture the city. Fifty tigers squatting and cannons were placed in front of the city gate for a whole day. Now How can Yang Zhu, who leads a group of local soldiers, capture the city
Yang Zhu made a tentative attack, but was defeated in disgrace, leaving behind a pile of corpses. Immediately set up camp to do a good job of defense, and ordered people to cut wood on the spot to make siege equipment. Here the big trees fell out of the deep mountains before they were dragged to the camp, and the branches and branches had not been cut clean. Over there, Yang Chaodong had already left the Songkan, and went to surprise Liu Dadao's camp.
Before dispatching troops, the three armies agreed on a meeting time, and the place was Liu Dadao's camp. As for communication during the period, there were no instant communication tools at that time. It would be even more shameful to stop every step and wait to communicate with the other party. Therefore, the three leaders have autonomy in how to act during the period.
Whether Yang Chaodong wanted to join Yang Zhu first or rush to Liu Dadao's camp alone, he had to go through Luoyan Gorge, which was the place where another lieutenant of Liu Dadao set up an ambush. This was his only way. However, Yang Chaodong, as the young master of Bozhou and the future heir of the Yang family, has excellent military capabilities.
He sent eight scouts overtly and covertly, and Liu Dadao's lieutenant general also sent out scouts to fight back, but after a lot of fighting, Yang Chaodong finally found the ambush before stepping into the ambush circle, and the ambush was forced to become a battle. Head to head.
The soldiers and horses used by the imperial court to ambush are not as many as Yang Chaodong's, and fighting in the mountains is inherently inferior. When he sees no enemy, the lieutenant quickly retreats to Luogu City according to the original arrangement. Yang Chaodong knew that there was an ambush here, which meant that Liu Dadao had learned of their attack plan, but he still had to bite the bullet and march towards Liu Dadao's camp, and even accelerated.
This was all due to the extremely backward communication conditions at that time. He could stop there, but he couldn't notify Yang Weidong and Yang Zhu in time. These two men each had 10,000 troops. If they arrived at Liu Dadao's camp without knowing it , Zhongfu was wiped out, what should he do
His father's foundation is his foundation, and a 20,000 army is not a small sum for Bozhou, and Yang Chaodong is reluctant to ruin it! So Yang Chaodong made up his mind and hurried to Liu Dadao to join Yang Weidong and Yang Zhu. The main force of Broadsword is no more than 30,000 people. At that time, if you lose the wind, you can flee to the pass that still belongs to your side.
But Yang Chaodong didn't expect Liu Dadao and his deputy general to be so wretched. When fighting, the deputy general will lead people away, and as soon as he pulls out, the deputy general will appear lingeringly, and Yang Chaodong is so angry that one Buddha was born and two Buddhas ascended to heaven, but he couldn't help him.
Such procrastination greatly affected Yang Chaodong's marching speed. As a result, when he finally arrived at the assembly point, Liu Dadao was cleaning the battlefield:
Yang Weidong arrived before him, but he bumped into Liu Dadao's iron plate. Liu Dadao's available troops were comparable to Yang Weidong's, but fighting on flat ground, the fighting quality of the Ming army he led had participated in Pingbo worship and fighting Japan. Tie Jun, Yang Weidong is his opponent.
In three consecutive duels, Yang Weidong was defeated, and the way to Loushanguan was also blocked by Liu Dadao, so he had to flee in a panic, but he didn't expect that his escape route was also designed by Liu Dadao, and Yang Weidong ran into it. The mountain depression where Ye Xiaotian laid the net.
Ye Xiaotian stayed here in advance and built this valley into an excellent defensive position, which came in handy at this time. Yang Weidong's remnant soldiers were easily wiped out by him, and Yang Weidong himself was shot by random arrows. die.
Liu Dadao placed many dummies in the camp to confuse the Loushanguan rebels. He led the main force to come out and called Ye Xiaotian, and together they faced Yang Chaodong aggressively. All the troops were wiped out.
Liu Ye's army, which wiped out Yang Chaodong's subordinates, rushed to Luoguchi in mighty strength. Outside Luogu City, Yang Zhu had just built the siege tools, and dozens of siege vehicles lined up, attacking the city with great fanfare, when the city gate suddenly opened, and the defenders took the initiative to attack.
Yang Zhu was overjoyed, and immediately swung his army forward to fight fiercely, but he didn't expect that there would be an endless stream of imperial troops in the city gate, like the flood that broke the embankment. Liu Dadao fought mobile warfare all the way, but at this time all his troops came here, a total of more than 35,000 people, facing Yang Zhu's 10,000 army. In a big battle, Yang Zhu's entire army was wiped out.
At this time, under Liu Dadao's strict order, other soldiers and horses suffered heavy casualties, but they also won successively. On the Wujiang Road, Ye Mengxiong came to the front to command in person, and conquered Wujiang Pass on the 12th; on the Pianqiao Road, he captured Tiandu and Sanbailuozhutun.
However, Yang Yinglong was not discouraged by the defeat, and suddenly launched a counterattack while the Ming army in Guizhou was crossing the river, defeating the Tongyuan Township of the official army. Tong Yuanzhen's general Yang Xian, guard Chen Yunlong, Ruan Shiqi, Bai Mingkui, commander Yang Xuzhi and others died in battle one after another.
Yang Yinglong was proud of his surprise attack and counterattack, and was about to go all out and kill the Ming army all the way back from Pianqiao, when Yang Chaodong fled back in a panic, crying to him about his defeat. When Yang Yinglong heard that all 30,000 troops had fallen into the hands of Liu Dadao, he felt his eyes go dark, and he almost died of pain.
The 30,000 army, for the court, could be recruited again with a raise of hands, but there are so many available soldiers in Bozhou. Yang Yinglong wished he could kill this bastard son, so he had to rush back to Hailongtun immediately, dispatch troops and generals to prepare for the decisive battle at Loushanguan.
Loushanguan, where thousands of peaks compete to stand, straight into the sky, in the vast jungle, there is only a small path with a width of only a few feet. Yang Yinglong had been friends with Liu Dadao and knew Liu Dadao's abilities all the time, but he believed that even if Liu Dadao really transformed into a martial saint Guan Yunchang, he would never want to win Loushanguan!
