    Right and wrong, good and evil, often come together in a single thought. He is loyal to the Taiyuan Army but is doubted for no reason. He kindly opens the city gate to meet friendly forces, but even the boss's younger brother Li Er refuses to enter the city and demands that he hand over the enemy's envoy to prove his innocence.  .  Feeling that he had been greatly insulted, Yuci guard Liu Jizhen impulsively made a typical impulsive but also very smart and correct decision to join the frontline uprising and defect to Chen Sangliang.  Liu Jizhen's impulsive decision made Ding Yang's army miserable, and even more so Liu Wuzhou himself. He hurriedly sent people into the city to conduct reconnaissance, but found nothing unusual. The Sui army pursuers behind him were already shouting to kill. Liu Wuzhou hurriedly entered the city, but was killed by the Sui army.  The soldiers of the Dingyang Army, who had been chasing for thirty miles, cheered loudly and rushed to the west gate of Yuci.  Li Er was also extremely hesitant. He didn't know whether he should risk entering the city. He was even more worried about whether he would have a chance to survive Yuci after entering the city.  Thanks to Li Er's hesitation, at this time, there was a loud bang, and the thousand-jin gate on the inner city wall of Yuci's west gate suddenly fell to the ground, smashing several Dingyang Army soldiers who could not dodge into meat paste.  The emperor cut the Dingyang Army in two. Liu Wuzhou led a few soldiers and was trapped in the city, while the main force of the Dingyang Army was blocked outside Yuci City.  Various screams followed, including the Taiyuan soldiers on the city wall who kept screaming, "What happened? Why did the Qianjin Gate fall?" He also heard the screams of his own soldiers, Liu Jizhen was the  He realized that his decision just now was too impulsive and reckless, and he never considered the possible consequences. But when things got to this point, Liu Jizhen had no way to turn back, so he immediately drew his sword and shouted at his soldiers:  "Brothers, His Royal Highness the Tang Dynasty's army has already reached the gates of Taiyuan City. The Li family brothers are about to be destroyed. If we continue to persist in our stubbornness, we will only be buried with the Li family brothers! Instead of dying in vain, why not join me in capturing Liu Wu, Zhou's husband, and offering sacrifices to him?  A greeting for His Majesty Prince Tang! "Would you like to follow me?" What surprised Liu Jizhen was that after hearing his words, nearly half of the Taiyuan Army soldiers raised their weapons and shouted.  They shouted and expressed their willingness to go with Liu Jizhen. Although the other half did not express their stance clearly, they all looked at each other in confusion, and no one stood up to stop or object.  Seeing this scene, Liu Jizhen was secretly happy, and quickly sent his close soldiers to the north gate of Yuci to contact his brother Liu Liuer who was stationed there, asking him to cooperate with him, and then pointed his knife into the city.  He roared: "Brothers, follow me! Capture Liu Wuzhou alive and offer it to His Highness the King of Tang!" Chaos, complete chaos, both in and outside the city of Yuci. Liu Wuzhou, who was suddenly trapped in the city, jumped over the wall and led him  With only a few dozen soldiers, he hid and fled, looking for a way out of the city; Liu Jizhen, who had no way to turn back, led more than 200 soldiers to chase after him, saying that he wanted to capture Liu Wuzhou alive; then Liu Jizhen's brother Liu Jizhen  Liu'er also brought people to help arrest people. Who would have thought that the Liu brothers' betrayal would anger Li Zhongwen, the general of the Taiyuan Army stationed at the east gate of Yuci. Li Zhongwen, who was loyal to Li Jiancheng, also led a team of cronies to join the battlefield and joined the Liu family.  The brothers were fighting fiercely in Yuci City.  The situation outside the city was of course even more chaotic. In order to rescue Liu Wuzhou who was trapped in the city, Song Jingang, Huang Ziying and other generals divided their forces to resist the Sui army's pursuers, while they chopped the thousand-jin gates made of iron-clad wood with knives and axes, and some Dingyang gates.  There was no one on the city guarding the soldiers, so they climbed up the city wall with bare hands.  However, just as these soldiers who climbed the city cheered and called on their companions to go to the city as soon as possible, the main force of the Sui army had already reached the west gate of Yuci, completely sounding the death knell of the main force of the Dingyang army.  At this time, the sky was already twilight. From a distance, he saw the Dingyang army congested near the west gate of Yuci, and many Dingyang soldiers were climbing up the city. Although Chen Sangliang had not had time to understand what happened, he immediately caught them.  Seizing this rare opportunity, he immediately ordered a general attack. He also took the rare opportunity to go into battle with his sword in hand, encouraging his soldiers to fight bravely against the enemy.  In the dawn, more than 30,000 Sui army infantry and cavalry rushed like waves, rushing towards the Dingyang army crowded outside the west gate of Yuci. However, the Dingyang army was in a panic, and generals at all levels shouted orders to form formations until their throats were full.  I screamed dumbly, but I still couldn't quickly form a strong square formation to resist the Sui army's charge. I was killed by the Sui army soldiers with a single charge. The cavalry first collided and fought on the open left wing, and then the Chinese infantry faced each other, sword against sword and gun against gun.  , the shield hit the shield violently, and soldiers from both armies were constantly being cut down, knocked over, and knocked back. However, the Sui army soldiers clearly had the upper hand. During the collision, Ding Yang's soldiers suffered significantly more casualties.  A brutal and bloody close-quarters battle began. In order to survive and win, the soldiers of the two armies all fought hard with all their strength. Swords, guns and shields kept clashing on the battlefield, accompanied by shouts of death, screams and the neighing of war horses.  The voices of the two armies were mixed together, and the ground where the two armies met was as chaotic as a pot of boiling rice porridge. Blood and human body parts were constantly spurted out.?It was quickly covered with the corpses of soldiers from both armies, but Dingyang's army still accounted for the absolute majority.  There is no suspense. The Dingyang Army can only compete with the Sui Army in cavalry combat. In infantry combat, it is no match for the Sui Army's main infantry. No matter how hard generals such as Song Jingang and Huang Ziying try to restrain the soldiers.  , the infantry of Dingyang Army was still defeated by the Sui Army, and was quickly forced to retreat by the moat.  At the same time, as usual, dozens or twenty gunpowder bottles flew out of the Sui army's formation and smashed into the crowd of Dingyang soldiers who were already so dense that it was difficult to get in with water. Amidst the rumbling explosions, Dingyang soldiers staggered around and were squeezed.  There were countless moats under the city, and the Sui army's infantry took the opportunity to retreat in large strides, compressing the Dingyang army's infantry formation even more densely.  At the critical moment, new changes occurred in the rear of the Dingyang Army. After countless efforts to smash it, the Qianjin Gate inside the west gate of Yuci was finally destroyed by the Dingyang Army. The soldiers of the Dingyang Army cheered and entered the city. Other Dingyang soldiers were fighting fiercely in front.  As soon as Sergeant Yang saw that there was a way to retreat, Song Jingang, Huang Ziying and others hurriedly did not have time to arrange the supervising team to prevent the soldiers from escaping. Sergeant Ding Yang took the opportunity to escape across the moat and fled into the city. As a result, they naturally led them immediately.  The consequences were disastrous. In order to enter the city and grab the suspension bridge, the soldiers of the Dingyang army pushed and trampled on each other. Countless people fell into the water and were trampled to death. The Sui army charged and fought fiercely, constantly driving away the Dingyang soldiers.  Sergeant Yang went into the water and also tried to attack the west gate of Yuci to control the city gate.  In the chaos, the corpses of Dingyang Army soldiers quickly filled the moat on both sides of the suspension bridge. Soldiers from both armies could step on the corpses to reach the foot of Yuci City.  Seeing this scene, Chen Sangliang also immediately made some tactical adjustments, asking Kan Leng and Qiu Xinggong, the two tired divisions who had worked hard last night, to retreat to the rear to rest the entire team. Chen Sangliang also led the Patriot Army to the rear to command the overall situation.  , the Ximen War was entrusted by Chen Sangliang to generals such as Yuchi Jingde and Liu Shishan. It was also at this time that Chen Sangliang found the opportunity to watch the fierce flank battle between his own cavalry and the Dingyang Army¡¯s cavalry to understand the strength and strength of the enemy¡¯s cavalry.  Understand the shortcomings of your own cavalry.  After some observation, Chen Sangliang found that the fighting style of the Dingyang Army's cavalry was very similar to that of nomads. They tried their best to open up space to kill the enemy with bows and arrows, and tried not to engage in close combat until they were forced to do so. Qin Qiong and Cheng  The Sui cavalry led by Yao Jin divided into groups and tried their best to find opportunities for close combat. During this period, they were supplemented by shooting with bows and arrows. Although they were not at a disadvantage, they could not gain much advantage.  Seeing this, Chen Sangliang nodded first, and then said happily in his heart: "Fortunately, Liu Wuzhou took the initiative to bring his main force south to Taiyuan. Otherwise, I would have wiped him out on the grassland outside the Great Wall.  The money and food spent alone would make me vomit blood." After being thankful, Chen Sangliang quickly sent someone to interrogate the prisoners of war to find out the specific whereabouts of Liu Wuzhou. As a result, Chen Sangliang was pretty lucky, and one of them happened to be seriously injured.  The prisoners of Dingyang Army saw Liu Wuzhou trapped in Yuci City and gave a truthful account.  Chen Sangliang was overjoyed when he heard the report, and immediately ordered his flag array to be moved outside the north gate of Yuci. He also ordered Qin Qiong and Cheng Yaojin to stop playing hide-and-seek with the Dingyang Army cavalry led by Xun Xiang, and withdraw to his side to rest and feed their horses.  Always be prepared to intercept Liu Wuzhou's troops fleeing north.  In addition, Chen Sangliang naturally had to give orders to generals such as Yuchi Jingde and Liu Shishan, asking them to enter Yuci City and force Dingyang's army to abandon the city and flee.  Yuchi Jingde, who rarely had the opportunity to go into battle to kill the enemy, did not disappoint Chen Sangliang. During the fierce battle in front of the door, Yuchi Jingde seized the opportunity and rushed to the door. He used his strength to chop down many Dingyang Army soldiers one after another, and successfully seized the opportunity.  At the entrance of the city gate, the officers and soldiers of the Sui army took the opportunity to swarm into the city, and entered the city to start a street battle with the Dingyang army, which completely stopped the Dingyang army from closing the city to breathe.  At the same time, Liu Wuzhou, who had been hiding in the city, finally met Song Jinjiang and others who were struggling to enter the city to meet them, and they met together. Originally, Liu Wuzhou, Song Jinjiang and others wanted to close the city and defend themselves.  For a period of time, they rested the army and gathered the scattered defeated soldiers before making plans. However, seeing a large number of Sui army flags appearing in the west city from a distance, Liu Wuzhou and Song Jingang immediately gave up on the idea and could only quickly gather the troops and march toward them.  Move to the north gate of Yuci, then open the north gate and retreat to Mayi's old nest.  "It is a pity that the retreat route of Liu Wuzhou and others had been anticipated by Chen Sangliang, and the reserve team had already been moved to the north gate of Yuci to prepare for it.  When Liu Wuzhou and others opened the door and saw the Sui army arrayed on the road, they were startled. However, they also saw that their own cavalry was gathering in the northeast to prepare for their orders. Liu Wuzhou, Song Jingang and others were relieved a little, and then started immediately  Leave the city and cross the river.  At this time, Chen Sangliang ordered Cheng Yaojin and Qin Qiong next to him: "Zhijie, Shubao, bring your cavalry and wait for orders. When you see my command flag waving, attack immediately to surprise Liu Wu and Zhou Pifu's bandit army leaving the city."  " Cheng Yaojin and Qin Qiong agreed immediately, and immediately rushed back to their own army to prepare for the attack. The reporting generals such as Guo Feng and Chen Ci were not happy when they heard this, and they all said: "Your Highness, why don't you do this mission?  Leave it to us?Not to mention that our men and horses are full of physical strength and are more suitable for assault. Even if it is our turn, it is our turn, right?  We were following you all last night, but we never had the chance to take action.  " "What's the rush?  Chen Sangliang pouted towards the cavalry brigade of Dingyang Army in the distance to the east and said with a smile: "Your opponents are them. Zhijie Shubao raided the bandit commander. The bandit cavalry must go south to support them. Wait for them and ours."  The cavalry are entangled, won't you have an opportunity?  " When Guo Feng, Chen Ci and others heard this, they were overjoyed and shut up obediently. Chen Sangliang was nervously observing the situation at the north gate of Yuci. When he saw the flags of Liu Wuzhou and Song Jingang crossing the north gate moat together, Chen Sangliang  Without hesitation, he immediately waved the command flag with his own hands, and the Sui cavalry led by Qin Qiong and Cheng Yaojin immediately shouted and charged towards the north gate of Yuci. The result was not what Chen Sangliang expected, and the east side was determined.  General Yang Xunxiang, Gao Manzheng and others also immediately led the cavalry to attack, attacking the flanks of the Sui army's cavalry diagonally, forcing the Sui army's cavalry to adjust their direction to fight. Then, in order to cover the retreat of Liu Wuzhou, Song Jingang and others, Xunxiang and Gao Manzheng did not hesitate.  He started a close melee with the Sui cavalry and gave up the kite tactic that Chen Sangliang hated the most. It was this fighter plane that Chen Sangliang was waiting for. He first ordered the Baoguo army to prepare for a surprise attack, and then gave instructions to Kan Leng and Qiu Xinggong.  : "I personally lead the rebel army in a raid, and you are responsible for intercepting the rebel infantry!  Remember, as long as there is a chance, I will capture Liu Wuzhou at any cost, whether he lives or dies!  " While Kan Leng and Qiu Xinggong clasped their fists and sang the promise together, the six school newspaper **** led by Generals Guo Feng, Chen Ci and Yu Le finally showed off their iconic white robes. Chen Sang, who was also wearing a white robe,  Under the leadership of Liang himself, they charged together and attacked the Dingyang Army cavalry, which had been entangled with the Sui Army cavalry. The Dingyang Army cavalry, which had never fought against the Baoguo Army, did not pay much attention at first. However, when Baoguo Army  After the Dingyang army directly entered the cavalry formation of Dingyang, Xunxiang, Gao Manzheng and other generals of the Dingyang army inevitably had the urge to cry, "Damn it!  Even the soldiers' weapons and equipment are better than those of our generals. How can we fight this battle?  !  " Sophisticated weapons and equipment are indeed one of the important reasons why the Patriot Army is invincible, but it is definitely not the most critical. The scariest thing about the Patriot Army is its cohesion, silence and efficiency. It does not need to be like other armies on the battlefield.  Yelling to be bold, some just unite into a group, act in unison, silently and calmly look for opportunities to strike, powerful attacks that are not flashy but absolutely practical, every knife and every shot is just going away and never looking back, never considering self-protection  , like a series of cold killing machines, it is the same this time, with Chen Sangliang surrounded by handsome flags following Chen Sangliang, and the armaments are like extremely sharp weapons.  Like sharp knives, they rushed in and out of the Dingyang Army cavalry formation, making almost no sound. There were only violent storms of swords, spears, sticks and axes. As long as the Dingyang Army cavalry dared to get close to block the way, they would  All of them were chopped down with knives and stabbed to death with random spears. Many soldiers of the Dingyang Army did not even see clearly the moves of the reported soldiers. Xun Xiang, Gao Manzheng and other generals roared and commanded the cavalry several times.  They were blocked in front and pursued, but they still couldn't stop the charging pace of the Baoguo Army. On the contrary, they were killed and wounded heavily by the Baoguo Army soldiers. The corpses were scattered all over the ground. The Baoguo Army cavalry was a vital force, but the Dingyang Army cavalry was not.  Due to the exhaustion of men and horses from successive battles, and the presence of the Sui Army cavalry led by Qin Qiong and Cheng Yaojin, the Dingyang Army cavalry quickly showed signs of defeat when they saw the situation.  Unfortunately, they didn't dare to delay any longer and immediately ran away to the north. However, Kan Leng and Qiu Xinggong were well prepared and immediately led their troops to block the way of Liu Wuzhou and others. Then Yuchi Jingde also led a group of Sui infantry.  After chasing out of the north gate of Yuci, Liu Wuzhou, Song Jingang and others were blocked and had no way to go. They could only bite the bullet and rush into the battle formation of Kan Leng and Qiu Xinggong, trying to open a way to escape. The fierce battle resumed.  Including the cavalry, there were only more than 12,000 Dingyang troops left. They fought fiercely with more than twice the Sui army's infantry and cavalry. The battle was dark, the sun and the moon were dim, and they all tried their best to kill their opponents. The fierce battle lasted for a long time.  However, it is a pity that the Dingyang army was not as well prepared as the Sui army. They had brought enough dry horse food early and could feed the horses when they had time. Their physical strength was guaranteed.  Dingyang's army, which had just decided to march eastward to Yuci in a hurry, was unprepared. They fought continuously overnight and marched for more than fifty miles. The generals and soldiers were already so hungry that their stomachs were growling and their physical strength was severely reduced.  Therefore, when the fierce battle reached close to noon, Dingyang's army finally collapsed completely because it could not hold up. Liu Wuzhou himself was forced to change into soldiers' clothes and dispersed to escape. The pursuit battle resumed in the daytime when the light was sufficient and the visibility was good.  Under such circumstances, the focus of the Sui cavalry was only to pursue the enemies on war horses. The slogans of capturing Liu Wuzhou alive and surrendering without killing were shocking. Every time a prisoner was captured, Liu Wuzhou's whereabouts would be questioned. Chen Sangliang, who was always cautious in pursuing pursuits, also openly threatened to  , even if they chased them to Fenyang City, they would definitely??Catch up and take down Liu Wuzhou's head!  There was no need to pursue the city of Fenyang. In fact, the pursuit only lasted about ten miles. Liu Wuzhou's position was betrayed by Liu Wuzhou's guard who fell off his horse and surrendered. Chen Sangliang personally led the army to outflank Liu Wuzhou and successfully intercepted Liu Wuzhou.  The hiding cavalry team of the Dingyang Army quickly surrounded the cavalry of the Dingyang Army, which had only more than a hundred cavalry. They shouted and demanded that Liu Wuzhou be handed over. Chen Sangliang also came forward in person, demanding that Liu Wuzhou come out and surrender, and promised not to harm Liu Wuzhou.  life.  The Dingyang Army cavalry team was obviously hesitant and seemed to be planning to break out desperately. However, as Qin Qiong also led the cavalry team to the vicinity, the Dingyang cavalry team still gave up the idea of ??resisting. They were once across the river from Chen Sangliang.  Liu Wuzhou, who had met him once, also obediently stepped out from the crowd and ordered all his men to dismount and lay down their weapons. Liu Wuzhou himself begged Chen Sangliang to surrender.  Liu Wuzhou was finally caught. The hard work for most of the night was finally not in vain. Chen Sangliang, whose face was covered with dust and looked embarrassed, breathed a sigh of relief. He first waved the soldiers to come forward and capture Liu Wuzhou, and then stopped by to watch the pursuit.  The situation on the battlefield turned out to be better without looking at it. At first glance, the four Dingyang Army cavalry who were looking over on a low hill not far to the west caught Chen Sangliang's eyes intentionally or unintentionally.  Then one of the four Dingyang Army cavalry secretly looked at where Chen Sangliang's commanding flag was. Their eyes met after more than a hundred steps. After crossing, Chen Sangliang, whose eyes were both 1.5 points, also immediately  Recognized the person's identity.  And the man's eyesight was obviously very good. He seemed to have noticed something wrong with Chen Sangliang's expression, so he immediately pulled out his horse and galloped in the opposite direction of Chen Sangliang.  "Guo Feng, Chen Ci, Yu Le! Bring the newspaper and follow me!" Chen Sangliang shouted, "Uncle Bao, Liu Wuzhou will leave it to you and escort him back to Yuci City!"
