Chapter 2763: Ambush from all sides, Yang Guang’s death (Part 1)
Dou Tai was a general from the Northern Wei Dynasty to the Eastern Wei Dynasty. He defected to Erzhu Rong in his early years, supported Emperor Xiaozhuang, and quelled the Xinggao uprising. Later, he assisted Gao Huan in attacking the Western Wei Dynasty and conquered Tongguan. However, he was attacked by the Prime Minister of the Western Wei Dynasty, Yu Wentai, and eventually committed suicide after defeat. , is a brave and strategic general.
When Dou Tai was approached by Yang Su and asked to act as an internal agent, to be honest, his heart was extremely broken. After all, it was not anyone else that Yang Su wanted him to betray, but his biological father.
It's not that Dou Tai never thought that he would rather die than obey, or even die in order to fulfill his filial piety.
But even if he didn't obey, there were other internal agents around his father, and even other generals who had rebellious intentions were arranged by Yang Su.
Dou Tai knew that the rebellion was bound to fail. All the actions of the rebel generals were under Yang Su's supervision from beginning to end. There were no secrets at all, so how could they succeed?
Therefore, the outcome is doomed. No matter whether Dou Tai obeys or not, there is nothing he can do to stop this. The only thing he can do is to surrender in order to preserve the family.
As for Daqin, after it breaks through Daxing City, will the Dou family be liquidated because of his actions?
Dou Tai is not very worried about this. After all, Da Qin has the power to rule the world upright, so it will never act like the Sui Kingdom, which is about to collapse.
Dou Tai had just dealt with Guo Shen and Dou Le, but Zhi Jian and Jin She were also attacked, and Wu Yunzhao, the fifth fierce general of the Sui and Tang Dynasties, personally took action.
Naoken, who was at the level of a god general, had no time to react. Wu Yunzhao cut off his arm with a shot and was stabbed through the throat. He died on the spot.
Seeing this, Jin She was shocked and did not dare to fight Wu Yunzhao. He led his troops to retreat to the city gate to join the Qin army, and bumped into Yan Xing and Sima Xin who had just entered the city.
When Sima Xin learned that there was a Sui army ahead, his eyes suddenly turned red.
On the first day when the Qin army arrived in Daxing, Yang Guang directly killed more than 160 members of his family in order to prevent his men from rebelling, thus deterring the wavering generals.
Enemies are extremely jealous when they meet.
Sima Xin has been holding back for so many days, and now that he has finally conquered Daxing, he can no longer resist the urge to kill.
Sima Xin did not even inform Yan Xing, but led the reorganized 3,000 surrender troops to directly attack the Sui army, and met Wu Yunzhao on the street.
Wu Yunzhao originally had no intention of entangled with Sima Xin. He just wanted to fight and retreat and lead the Qin troops entering the city into an ambush circle. However, if Sima Xin insisted on entangling him, he would have no choice but to kill him.
nail……
Wu Yunzhao held Suying's bright silver spear and swept it with all his strength. Not only did he knock off the weapon in Sima Xin's hand, but he also harvested his head.
Sima Xin died in the battle, and the deputy general took over the command and continued to fight. However, Yan Xing ordered not to go deep, and to turn back and completely capture the south gate first.
Wu Yun summoned the Qin army but was not fooled. A gloom suddenly flashed in his eyes and he quickly returned to report to Yang Su.
After listening to Wu Yunzhao's story, Yang Su didn't seem to be worried at all that the Qin army had entered the city. He said calmly: "Since Hu Luguang is not fooled, let's implement plan No. 2. General Dou Tai, you immediately lead your troops to counterattack." South Gate.”
"promise."
Dou Tai accepted the order decisively. He actually understood in his heart that he had already abandoned his son, but for the safety of his family, he had to take the initiative to sacrifice himself to protect his family.
When Dou Taicai led his army to the south gate, he saw a scene that surprised him. The raised city gate suddenly lowered, isolating the Qin army inside and outside the city, and reinforcements from all directions also arrived at this time.
"Yang Su is indeed prepared."
Dou Tai sighed secretly in his heart, and then ordered his soldiers to attack the Qin army that had not completely occupied the south gate.
This sudden scene also shocked the Qin army in the city. Now Sui armies were coming from all directions, and the situation was extremely unfavorable to the Qin army.
However, under the command of Yan Xing, the Qin army continued to resist. There was no problem in the short term, but Hu obviously couldn't handle it after a long delay.
However, the Qin army outside the city had also discovered the preparations at the south gate, and they gathered one after another to attack the south gate to rescue Yan Xing and his army who were trapped in the city.
At the Sui Prince's Mansion, Yang Guang was waiting anxiously for the news. When he saw soldiers coming, he quickly asked: "Have all the Qin troops gone to the south gate?"
"Reporting to my lord, after Yan Xing was trapped at the south gate, a large number of Qin troops were mobilizing towards the south gate."
Hearing this, Yang Guang was overjoyed: "Okay, okay, the time has come to break out. Send the order. Except for the army besieging the south gate, the other armies will break out as planned."
"promise.
It turns out that Yang Guang planned to deal with internal conflicts from the beginning. After all, conflicts have already arisen. The greater the suppression, the greater the backlash. It is better to make good use of it.
So Yang Guang, after discussing with Yang Su and others, decided on a countermeasure early, which was to set up an ambush in advance, and then use the rebel forces to lure the Qin army into the ambush circle and weaken a wave of Qin army first.
But I didn't expect Yan Xing to be so cautious. After entering the city, he was not led into the city. Instead, he fought steadily, planning to completely occupy the south gate before going deep into Daxing.
This also forced Yang Guang to do the next best thing and directly introduce the second link of the plan, using Yan in the city as bait to lure the Qin troops outside the city to gather at the south gate for rescue, thereby weakening the strength of the Qin troops on all sides, so that Yang Guang could break through. Naturally, you will be more confident about going out.
At this time, the Qin troops outside the city gathered towards the south gate one after another, and the defenders at the east, west and north gates were greatly reduced. It was the best time for the Sui troops trapped in Daxing to break out.
"kill."
Wu Yunzhao took the lead, leading the charge with 5,000 Xiaoguo troops, followed by 25,000 infantry and cavalry troops.
Half of the Qin army stationed at the north gate was transferred to the south gate, leaving only 5,000 troops. How could they stop the 30,000 Sui troops?
Under the attack of the Xiaoguo Army, the Qin Army retreated steadily and had to voluntarily give up the passage and retreat toward the east gate.
"Don't get too entangled with the Qin army."
Wu Yunzhao shouted, and led the Xiaoguo army to stay to maintain order, but let the army that came out later go first.
Not long after the 30,000-strong army left the north gate, the Qin army attacked both the east and west gates, while Wu Yunzhao led the Xiaoguo army to stay behind.
After a fight, the army was reduced by nearly a thousand people, but it also defeated the counterattacking Qin army.
"Wu Yunzhao, my lord and the others have gone far, we can retreat." He Ruobi said.
Wu Yunzhao nodded and shouted: "The whole army retreats."
The Xiaoguo Army quickly retreated north under the command of Wu Yunzhao, and Hu Luguang also received the news immediately.
"Send a signal and ask General Yan Xing to come back." Hu Luguang said calmly.
"promise."
call out……
A firework shot up into the sky and exploded with colorful brilliance.
At the South Gate of Daxing, Yan Xing naturally saw the fireworks signal, so he ordered a fire to prevent the Sui army from approaching, and at the same time led his army to retreat from the ladder on the tower.
After Dou Tai led his men to put out the fire, he found that all the Qin troops had fled from the tower. Naturally, he was very surprised. After all, the Qin troops had finally entered the city.
Even if the Qin army outside the city knew that the Sui army had broken out, the city of Daxing was still under the control of the Sui army. The Qin army should not have taken advantage of the victory to pursue Daxing in one fell swoop, so why would they give up on their own initiative?
"Could it be?"
A dangerous idea appeared in Dou Tai's mind, so he quickly sent people out to explore the east and west gates. It turned out that the Qin troops at the east and west gates were all dummies made of straw. It was only because it was too dark that they could not be seen.
"be cheated."
Dou Tai murmured to himself. Now he finally understood why the Qin army didn't take advantage of the situation to capture Daxing. It wasn't that they didn't want to, but that they didn't have the strength.
The Qin army saw through the Sui army's purpose from the beginning, so they used a trick to deliberately lure Yang Guang to lead the main army out of the city, and set up an ambush in advance to annihilate him in one fell swoop.
If Dou Tai hadn't guessed, the Qin army outside the city was at most 20,000, while the Sui army inside the city was 15,000. Even if they attacked by force, they might not be able to defeat them.
But if Yang Guang who broke out of the encirclement was captured first, and the news that Yang Guang abandoned Daxing and fled the city was revealed, the Daxing defenders who had become abandoned would not be able to explode. By then, the Qin army would be able to do so without spending a single soldier. Take Daxing City with one pawn.
"High, really high."
Dou Tai smiled bitterly and muttered to himself. Even if he sent a message to Yang Guang now, it would probably be too late. After all, once he left Daxing City, it would not be so easy to come back.
After Yang Guang and Yang Su led the army to break out of the encirclement, the march along the way was also very smooth. The smoothness surprised Yang Su. After all, there was no movement from the Qin army's pursuers after running so far, which was a bit abnormal.
"Where is the place ahead?" Yang Guang asked.
"Lord, ahead is the Blue Wolf Leader." Yang Su replied.
"Blue Wolf Leader?"
A flash of sadness flashed in Yang Guang's eyes. His grandfather Dugu Xin and his two uncles were both killed in the Canglang Leader.
"Hey, what is that?"
Suddenly, Yang Guang heard some soldiers talking. He looked intently and saw a large earth slope with a stone tablet erected in front of it.
Yang Guang rode his horse to take a closer look and saw the inscription on the stele: "The place where the bones of Sui general Dugu Xin and eight thousand Sui army soldiers are buried."
Then there are the specific years, months and days, and the heroic feat of Dugu Xin leading 8,000 Sui troops to fight against 20,000 Qin troops. In the end, the entire army was annihilated and he died heroically.
Seeing this, Yang Guang couldn't help but have a complicated look in his eyes. He thought his grandfather had been abandoned in the wilderness, but he didn't expect that the bones of his grandfather and the soldiers who died in the battle were collected and buried by the Qin army. They even built a special memorial for them. monument.
"Lord, there are more over there."
Hearing this, Yang Guang thought it was the burial place of the Qin soldiers who died in the battle, so he went to take a look, but he didn't expect that what was written on it was: the burial place of the Sui King Yang Guang.
Yang Guang's eyes suddenly widened and he exclaimed: "No, I fell into a trap."
As soon as Yang Guang finished speaking, deafening shouts of killing suddenly sounded from behind and on both sides of the Sui army.
"kill……"
As rows of torches were erected, the Sui army was greeted by arrows all over the sky.
The Sui army was caught off guard, and a large number of soldiers were hit by arrows, causing heavy casualties.
For a time, shouts of killing and wailing intertwined, filling the entire Canglang Territory, and the Sui army's formation quickly fell into chaos.
"Don't panic, hold on steady, the shield man will step forward to cover..."

The more critical the moment, the more the qualities and abilities of famous generals can be reflected.
Under the emergency command of Commander 102 Yang Su, the Sui army gradually got rid of the chaos and began to launch an orderly counterattack.
But at this moment, only two Qin army cavalry were seen, coming from the southeast and southwest respectively, and the leading generals were Jin Zha and Muzha.
"Yang Guangxiu is leaving, Li Jing's son Li Jinzha is here."
"Li Muzha is here, who of the Sui generals dares to fight me?"
Jin Zha and Mu Zha shouted while rushing to kill.
