Taiping Heavenly Kingdom, Tianjing!衂
Guo Ruifu stood at the top of the city, looking at the dense crowd of soldiers from Yuan outside the city, his eyes filled with solemnity.
Since Yuan Shu unified Yuzhou, he was dissatisfied with the status quo and began to send his troops to invade Yangzhou. Yangzhou was originally divided into pieces, but when Yuan's army settled in it, the Tang Mao forces in Kuaiji County were subsumed, and the originally arrogant "King Duobao" was suppressed. "Liu Xinmin's forces were destroyed, and Shanyue's forces were forcibly annexed and incorporated.
Now in the huge Yangzhou, only the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom and Sun Jian's forces are left to survive. As an ally of Yuan Shu, Sun Jian's forces will naturally not be easily annexed, but the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom is different!
From the moment Hong Xiuquan openly proclaimed himself emperor and defied the Han court, the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom was destined to have such a miserable ending today.
As a thorn in the side and flesh of the Han Dynasty, what an unpardonable crime it is to dare to despise the royal power? Even though the government was controlled by Dong Zhuo, he still supported and encouraged Yuan Shu's attack on the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom.
The Taiping Heavenly Kingdom originally deployed many defense lines on the front line. However, due to Yuan's military power and the large number of high-power generals and high-command generals within, the defense lines set up along the way were like paper and were easily destroyed.
Only when Ao Moang, Guo Ruifu, and Peng Mowang, three high-powered generals, led their troops into battle, could they barely compete with Yuan Jun and stop them from continuing to occupy the entire Yangzhou. However, as the cause of Hong Xiuquan's death was revealed, Ao Moang and Demon King Peng defected before the battle, which made it difficult for the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom to turn from defense to offense. They could only be forced to stay in Tianjing City, hoping for a miracle to happen.衂
At that time, Hong Xiuquan, Guo Wei, and Yang Xiuqing, who spoke about the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom, thought that with the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom's military strength many times that of Yuan's army, it would be easy to defeat Yuan Shu's army that entered Yangzhou. However, they did not expect that they would be defeated by Wang Meng, Su Lie, and Lian Po. They gave him a hard lesson.
During this period, Guo Ruifu led his army to fight against Yuan's army many times. Whether it was Wang Meng, Lian Po's routines or Su Lie's leadership strategy, he was well aware of it. But for some reason, even though he was very familiar with Yuan's army commander's method of unifying the army, he couldn't find it every time. Every time he led his army into a confrontation, he still ended up defeated.
Since Guo Ruifu was the only high-powered general in the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom, he was responsible for every war. In the process of leading the army to fight, he suffered repeated defeats and defeats, and was forced to learn many things about army control. In terms of combat ability, his command value has now been raised to the level of 86. This level is comparable to Wang Meng and others in terms of defensive warfare. With the help of many top talents within the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom, he can completely defend the city.
Yuan Jun has two high-powered generals, Jiao Demon King and Xiong Kuohai, as well as two new high-powered generals, Ao Mo'ang and Peng Demon King. This forced the puppet emperor Guo Wei to allocate part of his troops for use. Beware of the latter two!
The final battle between the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom and Yuan Jun is getting closer and closer.
In this decisive battle, the puppet emperor Guo Wei chose to take the initiative and ordered Guo Ruifu, Chai Rong, Hong Chengchou, and Fu Yanqing to lead the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom's 140,000 troops to a decisive battle with Wang Meng's 70,000 Song army. Among them, the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom dispatched more than 50,000 cavalry. However, Wang Meng dispatched only 20,000 cavalry here, and the strength of the two sides was very different.
"The 140,000-strong army has been mobilized, leaving 10,000 strong soldiers in the city to guard the home. If the situation on the front line is unfavorable, I can lead this 10,000-strong garrison to meet up with Hong Chengchou in Shizigang. When I gather the remaining troops, I will march south to Jiaozhou. Who can resist my master of heaven?"
The puppet emperor Guo Wei had already arranged his retreat. Even if he could not win this battle, he could retreat to Jiaozhou and plan a comeback.
Guo Wei, who was in a relatively good mood, was surrounded by a group of officials. He climbed the city wall of Tianjing City and came to his uncle Guo Ruifu. When Guo Ruifu saw him coming in person, he was about to salute, but he was pulled up by Guo Wei.
"Uncle, you and I are like father and son, so there is no need to pay this courtesy. The Yuan army led by Wang Meng outside the city is approaching fiercely. Uncle, when are you going to leave the city to fight?"
Guo Ruifu, who was holding his hands on the crenellations of the city wall, had blazing eyes. He looked at the dense crowd of Yuan soldiers outside the city, and replied in a sonorous and powerful tone: "At noon, with the sound of gold and drums, I will lead an army of 50,000 to attack first and test the enemy. The strength of the army, if the troops are matched
Then let the two generals Chai Rong and Fu Yanqing come to support immediately and annihilate Yuan's army in one fell swoop; if our army is in decline, let the two generals Chai Rong and Fu Yanqing lead their troops to come to support, and then the entire army retreats to Tianjing City and Yuan Jun fought offensive and defensive battles.
Since his uncle Guo Ruifu had already made the plan, Guo Wei didn't say anything more. He led a group of officials to retreat from the city wall and returned to the palace, resting carefully and waiting for the news of the victory!
…
At noon, the scorching sun hangs high in the sky!衂
Seeing that the time was ripe, Guo Ruifu immediately sent his men to open the city gate. He put on his armor and personally led an army of 50,000 people to the battlefield. At this time, Su Lie and Lian Po had already led their troops to prepare outside the city.
"This battle is the decisive battle for our army to destroy the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom. As long as the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom is destroyed, we can take the entire Yangzhou into our hands. I hope all the generals present can go all out. After winning the battle, I, Wang Jinglue, will definitely take over today's victory." Report the battle truthfully to the lord, and reward according to your merits during the introduction. I will never owe you anything."
Wang Meng's few words made the morale of his troops soar, which made Guo Ruifu on the opposite side of the battlefield feel even more pressure. His command value of 86 was compared to Wang Meng, who had nearly over 100 command values. The gap was too big, and he felt like he was being suppressed. Feel.
They pale in comparison. The morale of the Taiping Army was already inferior to that of Yuan Jun before the war started. Guo Ruifu wanted to boost morale, but he couldn't do anything!
He glared angrily at the Yuan Jun camp opposite, and saw that Jiao Demon King and Xiong Kuohai were not among the army. His original anxiety calmed down a little, and then he saw them raising their arms and shouting, and directly led his troops to attack Yuan Jun. attack.
The two armies fought fiercely for several hours, and the Yuan army, which was at a disadvantage, gradually gained the upper hand. Seeing that the troops led by Su Lie and Lian Po were about to overwhelm the Taiping army, Chai Rong and Fu Yanqing each led 30,000 troops to the battlefield.
The 140,000 Taipingtian Army faced the 70,000 Yuan Army. The difference in strength was too huge. But even so, Yuan Army fought fiercely for a day and night under the command of top commanders such as Wang Meng, Lian Po, and Su Lie.衂
Just when Yuan's army was exhausted and Taiping's general Guo Ruifu thought he would win, Yuan's generals Jiao Demon King and Xiong Kuohai each led eight thousand cavalry and suddenly appeared on both sides of the Taiping Army!
"The decisive battle is imminent, and the Han court's Heavenly Masters are here. Generals among the rebels, if you don't resist now, how long will it take?"
