Chapter 31 underestimate the enemy

Let's say that Gao Yu was defeated by Xu Tangju in the area of Qianligang, and most of his troops retreated to Quzhou. Huang Siye's soldiers and horses in the third village of Daqi rushed outside Quzhou, joined the soldiers and horses of Xu Tangju, the fifth village of Daqi, and stormed Quzhou. Gao Qian couldn't resist the enemy and had to break through the city. He had been chased to the boundary of Huzhou by the Rebels to stop the soldiers and horses. In this war, Chang Hong was defeated and the Tang army was defeated by Mijiang.

After receiving the news that Gao Yu led his troops to the outside of Huzhou, Dong Chang personally went out of the city to welcome him and connected Gao Yu's soldiers and horses to Huzhou. When I arrived at the Huzhou government office, I was shocked by the wine.

Early the next morning, Gao Mi ordered Wenwu to gather in Huzhou government to review the cause of military failure and study ways to suppress the Huangchao uprising army. After Wenwu arrived, Gao Qian came straight to the point and got to the point.

"Guys, last time we stirred up the masses and sent out three armies to encircle and suppress Xu Tangju, a thief in western Zhejiang. Because we didn't know the enemy situation, our army suffered a great loss and lost more than 100,000 soldiers before and after. General Mijiang was unfortunately killed. We were repaired badly by Xu Tangju's thief bandits. I must avenge this big revenge! I have been unified and follow the stream. Let's express our opinions. This meeting solved two problems, one is to analyze the reasons for our army's failure to encircle and suppress western Zhejiang, and the other is to clarify the future methods of conquest and suppression. Gao Yu sat upright and talked about it. He really has the demeanor of a general.

Xue Tao said: "The main reason why Gao Dutong led more than 200,000 troops on an expedition to western Zhejiang was that they were defeated was divided halfway, and the thieves attacked east and west, which gave the illusion that the commander-in-chief of our army was responsible for it. For today's plan, the only way is to strictly order all parties to transfer elite soldiers to Huzhou, first recupy Hangzhou and Yuezhou, and then to the west of Zhejiang.

Liang Zhen shouted: "This battle is really cowardly. Pang Cong violated the military order and led troops back to Xuzhou without authorization. He must be severely punished! Pang's move from now on has obviously affected the morale of our army. This is also an important reason why our army is played by thieves as a monkey!"

Zhong Wenwu discussed in the council hall of Huzhou government, arguing with each other and blushing.

Gao Yu slapped the handsome case hard and roared, "Guys, please pause. I'm going to express my opinion!"

The council chamber was suddenly silent, and Wenwu sat down with his head down, waiting for Gao Yu to speak.

Gao Yu glanced at the venue coldly and began to teach: "Since I became the Central Plains and Jiangnan, in general, you have cooperated well with me. But in some places, some generals are self-righteous and inoperative, which misses the fighter plane and becomes a fiasco! The lesson of this blood tells us that if you combine, you will benefit, and if you divide, you will lose. If you continue to make such a small calculation, you will definitely fail to encircle and suppress the thief Xu Tang Ju in the future! Undefeated Xu Tangjun, just wait for Huang Chao to come back from Fuzhou to deal with us! At that time, the emperor will be furious, and you will wait for the people to be dismissed and sentenced to prison! Humph!"

When Wenwu heard this, he was as silent as a cicada, and no one squeaked.

Gao Yu saw that Wenwu was suppressed by his words and continued to play: "The emperor gave me a sword, and you can cut it first and play it later. Whoever does not accept my task, I will cut off his head!" I don't believe it. Is it Shangfang's sword or your skull?!"

"Of course, Shangfang's sword is hard!" Someone downstairs spoke, and everyone looked at it.

Gao Yu heard Zhang Yu's voice, and his head was big. He endured and listened to Zhang Yu's words.

Zhang Lin stood up and said generously: "I agree with the spirit of Gao Dutong's speech. The strength and equipment of the Tang Dynasty's army are far better than that of the thieves, but they have been defeated! The main reason is that they support each other's soldiers to protect themselves and fear the enemy, and then they were defeated by the thieves, which led to today's Huzhou Military Review Conference! Zhang Wei is deeply ashamed to attend such a meeting today!"

Gao Yu couldn't help but be overjoyed to see Zhang Yu support him at the meeting. He straightened his waist, motioned Zhang Lin to sit down, took over and said, "If you all kill the enemy as bravely as General Zhang Lin, why don't you worry about immortality?! By the way, Dong Chang was in Tongxi, and he ambushed the thief Zhu Zhiguan and killed the Zhu thief. Dong Chang is fearless in the face of danger and deserves praise. Today, Zhang Lin and Dong Chang are given 100 taels of gold each, and meritorious generals have been rewarded. Pei and Cui Xuan, who lost their land, were held accountable. I will go to the court and let the emperor fall!"

Half a month later, Pei Yu and Cui Yu received the imperial edict respectively and ordered them to go to Beijing to debrief their duties and wait for processing. Pei Yu had no choice but to pack some clothes, leave Xuanzhou, take his entourage, and go to Chang'an. Cui Yu lied that he was sick in Mingzhou and could not leave. He relied on Mingzhou and did not leave.

Gao Qian was in Huzhou and arranged reinforcements from all sides to train and station. In addition to his original soldiers and horses and Dong Chang's eight capitals, his strength became stronger again.

Soon, Gao Yu ordered Dong Chang to be stationed in Huzhou, ordered 200,000 elite soldiers, and embarked on the road of suppressing the Huangchao Uprising Army. This time, Gao Li did not split his troops, but went straight to Hangzhou. Wang Mei couldn't resist the enemy and had to lead his troops to break through and retreat to Fuyang.

At the same time, Qian Yong, Cheng and He sent troops from Taizhou to defeat the Yuezhou Rebels and reoccupy Yuezhou.

Xu Tangju and Huang Siye were in Quzhou. After receiving Wang Mei's emergency documents, they gathered the crowd for discussion.

Xu Tangju said, "Gao Qian has only arrived in Huzhou for more than half a month, and he has recruited many soldiers and horses in the surrounding towns. He took the north-south approach with Qian to attack Hangzhou and Yuezhou. This time, Gao Qian is really eye-catching and has to find the main force of our army to fight!"

Huang Siye said excitedly, "Brother Tang Ju, Daqi's fifth village has been fighting for many days. He is very tired and in urgent need of rest. I think it's just stationed in Quzhou and Wuzhou. I led the third village soldiers and horses to Muzhou to pick up Wang Mei's soldiers and horses retreat to thousands of miles to rest.

Xu Tangju repeatedly asked the fifth village to fight against Gao Li. Huang Siye did not follow him. Xu Tangju had to say, "Brother Si Ye, Gao Li uses troops and has many tricks. You should be more careful!"

"Don't worry, the fifth village soldiers can be used to fighting, and the third village soldiers are not muddy. This time, I will remind Gao Yu not to cause trouble to the generals of Daqi in the future!" Huang Siye was full of confidence, as if he had defeated Gao Li's army.

Huang Siye, Lu Jingren, Wang Ying and Bi Shiduo led the main force of the third village to Muzhou. Wang Zhixin opened the city to welcome them and hosted a banquet for Huang Siye and other third village generals. During the banquet, Bi Shiduo volunteered to be the pioneer of the way and went to Fuyang to pick up Wang Mei back to Muzhou.

Seeing Bi Shiduo's resolute attitude, Huang Siye agreed and allocated 10,000 horses to Bi Shiduo to return quickly. He should not be greedy for merit. Bi Shiduo promised.

The next day, Bi Shiduo went to Fuyang with 10,000 soldiers and horses. When he arrived in Fuyang, he met Wang Mei. Wang Mei was very happy to see the reinforcements arrive.

Wang Mei patted Bi Shiduo on the shoulder and said with a smile, "Master, you came really in time. The reason why I didn't quickly withdraw to Muzhou is that I wanted to rush Fuyang's military supplies to Muzhou. In the past few days, we have taken the waterway by boat and transported most of them in Zhejiang. It is estimated that it will be finished in a day or two. At that time, you and I will take troops back to Muzhou. I guess Gao Yu's army will be here soon.

"I came to Fuyang this time to frustrate Gao Yu's arrogance! Brother Wang Mei, take your subordinates to retreat to Muzhou first. I'm going to rob the camp, fight Gao Yu, and then withdraw back to Muzhou!" Bi Shiduo used his waist and said rudely.

"Master, don't underestimate the enemy!" Wang Mei advised.

Bi Shiduo did not listen to Wang Mei's words and took Qin Yan, the general, and led this 10,000 Qi people to stay in Fuyang. Wang Mei had no choice but to take thousands of soldiers and withdraw to Muzhou first.

As Wang Mei expected, a few days later, Gao Yu personally led a large army to Fuyang. Seeing that there were rebels stationed in Fuyang, he ordered them to camp and send horses to scout the false reality of the rebels.

At that night, Bi Shiduo and Qin Yan led 8,000 elite soldiers to attack Gao Yu's battalion, leaving only 2,000 soldiers and horses to defend Fuyang.

Bi Shiduo and Qin Yan's soldiers and horses quietly came to the front of Gao Yu's battalion. Seeing that there were not many Tang soldiers on duty and the candlelight in the camp tent was weak, they couldn't help but be overjoyed and ordered to take the lead with Qin Yan to enter Gao Yu's camp. After a burst of slashing, he rushed to Gao Qianzhong's military tent and wanted to capture Gao Qian in one fell swoop and make a great contribution.

Suddenly, the torch outside the Chinese army's tent was clear, and the killing sound was everywhere. Zhang Yu and Liang Yu's army were on the left, Xue Tao and Liang Yu's army was on the right, and Dou Mei and Song Wentong's army were outside and surrounded the rebels. On the front were Gao Yu's soldiers and horses, with arrows like flying locusts, and countless rebels were killed and injured.

Bi Shiduo and Qin Yan led their soldiers to kill them, but were besieged by the Tang army. Even if the overlord was resurrised, it was difficult to defeat such a heavy army. The Rebels only broke out of dozens of horses, and Bi Shiduo and Qin Yan were both captured.

Gao Qian was overjoyed and took the opportunity to attack Fuyang. The rebels were defeated, and only hundreds of soldiers and horses withdrew into Muzhou.
