Liang and Jin fought for hegemony, and Zhou Dewei broke the Liang army in the Battle of Baixiang, breaking Zhu Wen's backbone in a battle and burying the elite

author:Poetic sound

The Liang general Liu Zhijun was sent as an envoy to the Western Road camp and ordered to defend the Qi and Jin states. The Yuguo army made Wang Chongshi and him good friends, and the two met at Makuyaya and defeated the Qi soldiers.

After Zhu Wen received the good news, he ordered Liu Zhijun to march on the victory. Liu Zhijun led his army to attack and captured Danzhou, Yanzhou, Yanzhou and Fangzhou in one fell swoop.

Zhu Wen sealed the Niu Cun Festival as the envoy of the Great Army, and guarded Yanzhou and Fangzhou; Feng Gao Wanxing was appointed as the envoy of the Baosai army, guarded Danzhou and Yanzhou, and ordered Liu Zhijun to lead troops to attack Yongzhou again.

Yongzhou was the territory of Li Jihui, the adopted son of Li Maozhen the Prince of Qi.

Liu Zhijun's troops continued to fight, and the soldiers were slightly tired, and he was worried that he would not be able to take Yongzhou, but he did not dare to openly disobey Zhu Wen's orders, so he had to excuse that there was not enough food and grass, and he would march after he had enough food and grass.

Liu Zhijun's consideration is actually not excessive, the troops continue to fight, they cannot be rested, and it is a normal situation for fatigue. Zhu Wen, however, was a very suspicious person, and seeing that Liu Zhijun did not send troops, he suspected that he had a different intention, and ordered his squad to return to Luoyang.

Liu Zhijun was about to lead his troops to set off, when he suddenly heard that his friend Wang Chongshi had been arrested and sentenced to beheading, and he was also connected to the Nine Tribes, and he couldn't help but be surprised.

It turned out that the Youguo Army had enabled Wang Chongshi to defend Chang'an for many years, and during his tenure, he managed the army well and won the support of the army and the people. However, Zhu Wen blamed him for not serving the imperial court in time, suspected that he had different intentions, and decided to transfer him to Luoyang to serve in Luoyang, and let Liu Han, the commander of the left dragon and tiger, take over the post of Wang Chongshi after the Youguo army stayed.

Wang Chongshi did not want to go to Luoyang, because in Chang'an, he was the master, he could do whatever he wanted, free and happy; When he arrived in Luoyang, he had to be restrained by Zhu Wen, which was equivalent to losing his freedom. Therefore, when Liu Hanle ran to Chang'an to ask him to abdicate the throne, Wang Chongshi scolded him and drove him away.

Liu Han ran back to Luoyang and told Zhu Wen about Wang Chongshi's mischief, saying that he secretly conspired with Li Maozhen and plotted against him, and said that he had a nose and eyes.

It is not too much to say that Wang Chongshi is a little proud of his achievements, but to say that he has a rebellion is a great wrong. Zhu Wen's army was extremely harsh, and the generals were also very mean, and when he found that someone was slightly dissatisfied with him, he scolded him at light, and cut off his head at worst, and he was absolutely ruthless. Whether Wang Chongshi really had a different intention, he did not verify, but one thing is certain, the surplus value on Wang Chongshi has been squeezed dry by him, and there is not much use value. Although it cannot be concluded that he really has a different intention, it is always a hidden danger to stay, and since it is a hidden danger, it will simply be abolished, and it will be a hundred. Therefore, Zhu Wen ordered that Wang Chongshi be demoted to Xizhou Assassination, and soon he was given death and destroyed

Nine Families.

Liu Zhijun was already hesitant to go to Luoyang, and suddenly heard that Wang Chongshi was cursed, and he had a feeling of sadness. At the same time, it also made him realize what it is like for birds to hide and unload and kill donkeys. Therefore, he was even more hesitant, not knowing whether to go or not. At this time, his younger brother Liu Zhihun sent someone from Luoyang to send him a secret letter telling him not to go to Luoyang, which said: "If you enter, you will die." ”

Liu Zhihun had served as a commander, and he received news from within that Zhu Wen had become suspicious of his brother Liu Zhijun and let him come to Luoyang. Wang Chongshi was a lesson from the past, so he sent someone to send a letter to his brother, telling him not to come to Luoyang. In this way, if he disobeys orders, as a younger brother, he will be impunished. Therefore, he asked Zhu Wen for orders to welcome his brother Liu Zhijun back to the dynasty.

Zhu Wen didn't know what the plan was, but he actually approved.

Liu Zhihun took his family and left Luoyang overnight and fled to Liu Zhijun's military camp.

Liu Zhijun saw that his family had escaped from the clutches of the devil, and had no worries, and quickly led his team to occupy Tongzhou and defected to Li Maozhen, the king of Qi of Fengxiang. and secretly bribed the generals of Chang'an to capture Liu Han and avenge his friend Wang Chongshi.

Under the heavy reward, there will be a brave man, and sure enough, someone captured Liu Han and sent him to Fengxiang to receive the reward.

After Liu Zhijun occupied Tongzhou, he then led his troops to capture Tongguan.

Due to Zhu Wen's suspicions, a tiger general was forced into an enemy.

Zhu Wen was still in the dark at this time, and he saw that Liu Zhijun was late in coming to Luoyang, and sent someone to urge him again. It wasn't until the people sent out came back to report that they learned that Liu Zhijun had betrayed him.

Zhu Wen immediately wrote to Liu Zhijun and asked, "You are my old minister! I treat you well, why should you betray me? ”

Liu Zhijun replied, "Wang Chongshi is also your loyal courtier!" Why kill and kill? And also the nine tribes? The rabbit dies and the fox is sad, the bird is hiding with a bow, I am very scared in my heart! I am afraid that one day, like Wang Chongshi, I will accidentally lose my head. ”

Zhu Wen was punched by Liu Zhijun and was speechless, so he had to send someone to comfort Liu Zhijun, saying that Liu Hanjin was rumoring and framing Wang Chongshi for colluding with Li Maozhen, and it was I who did not notice for a while before I fell for his treachery and wrongfully killed Wang Chongshi. Until now, I still regret it! I heard that Liu Han had been sent to Qi Prefecture, and Wang Chongshi's revenge was also revenge. Come back, I will not fail you.

Liu Zhijun has followed Zhu Wen for so many years and knows Zhu Wen's temperament very well. He knew that Zhu Wen was vicious and could do anything desperate, so he didn't believe his nonsense at all, and he didn't even reply to the letter.

Zhu Wen broke his face, naturally furious, issued an edict to cut off Liu Zhijun's official title, and sent Yang Shihou, the envoy of the Eastern Province of Shannan, and the horse infantry army to command Liu Xun to attack Liu Zhijun.

Liu led his troops to the east of Tongguan, captured Liu Zhijun's ambush soldier Lin Ruhai and more than 30 others, coerced them to lead the way in front, and after approaching Tongguan, forced them to go to knock on the pass. The soldier guarding the pass saw that it was Lin Ruhai and the others, and there was no doubt that there was him, and opened the door widely.

Liu Yan led his troops to hide in the shadows, and when he saw that the gate was wide open, he rushed out of the darkness, rushed in, and rushed into Tongguan.

Liu Zhijun was caught off guard by Liu Zhenjun, and in a hurry, he could not organize effective resistance, so he had to abandon Guanxi and flee to Fengxiang to find Li Maozhen for tea. Li Maozhen ordered Liu Han to be killed and rewarded those who captured Liu Han as promised. He was preparing to send troops to pick up

In response to Liu Zhijun, Liu Zhijun suddenly fled in embarrassment, and with a kind word of comfort, he specially appointed Liu Zhijun as a Zhongshu order, allowing him to lead troops to attack Lingzhou, and promised that once Lingzhou was captured, he would be made a town marshal. Liu Zhijun led thousands of Qi Prefecture soldiers straight to Lingzhou, besieging Lingzhou City to the ground. Liang Guoshuo Fang Jiedu caused Han Xunfei to ride to Luoyang.

After Zhu Wen received the report, he immediately sent the Zhenguo army Jiedu to make Kang Huaizhen and the reformation army Jiedu to make Kou Yanqing to lead troops to support Han Xun and attack Yongzhou and Ningzhou at the same time.

Kang Huaizhen and others led the army to advance day and night, connecting Kening Prefecture and Yanzhou into the territory of Jingzhou (present-day Jingchuan County, Gansu Province).

Liu Zhijun knew that enemy reinforcements had arrived, and immediately returned to relieve the siege. Kang Huaizhen also retired from Sanshui. Liu Zhijun expected the enemy to be the first, went around in front of Kang Huaizhen, set up an ambush in a section of the canyon, and when Kang Huaizhen and his troops entered the canyon, the ambush suddenly rushed out and cut Kang Huaizhen's team into several sections.

Kang Huaizhen panicked and did not know what to do, but fortunately the Zuo Longqiao army made Wang Yanzhang shake his spirit, work hard, and with the two iron guns in his hand, he opened the way first, picked left and right, killed hundreds of Qi soldiers, jumped out of a bloody road, and rushed out of the encirclement with Kang Huaizhen. The partial generals Li Deyu, Xu Congshi, Wang Xianquan and others were all killed and scattered, and their whereabouts are unknown.

Kang Huaizhen fled to Shengping in embarrassment, and suddenly saw a large mountain blocking the way, surrounded by cliffs on both sides, and only a narrow path in the middle to lead to people. Just when he was in doubt, he heard a whistle, and the brigade of Qi soldiers came out of the valley and blocked the mountain pass, and the first general was Liu Zhijun.

Liu Zhijun shouted: "Kang Huaizhen, come and die!" ”

Kang Huaizhen saw that the Qi soldiers were blocking the way, and he was so frightened that he said to Wang Yanzhang tremblingly: "This... What can be done about this? ”

"Don't be afraid, follow me." Wang Yanzhang shouted, danced his two guns, and took the lead in killing the valley entrance.

Liu Zhijun immediately stepped forward to meet the enemy, who knew that Wang Yanzhang was born with divine power, and a gun weighed a hundred pounds.

The two guns took turns to kill, Liu Zhijun was not an opponent at all, and after only three or five rounds, he was already sweaty and panting. Knowing that he was invincible, he had to retreat.

Wang Yanzhang fought and walked, killing a bloody road, Kang Huaizhen followed closely behind, and after a bloody battle, he rushed out of the valley. The soldiers under him were not so lucky, all of them became ghosts under the sword of the Qi Zhou soldiers, and the whole army was destroyed, and none of them survived. When Kou Yanqing learned the news of Kang Huaizhen's defeat, he hurriedly collected his troops, and finally did not suffer a big loss.

Liu Zhijun reported his victory to the King of Qi, and Li Maozhen made him the envoy of Changyi Jiedu and ruled Jingzhou.

Zhu Wen saw that Kang Huaizhen had lost the battle, and he was annoyed, and for a long time he was mentally weak, too lazy to deal with political affairs, and had no intention of refuting the military newspapers in foreign towns, and perfunctory.

Li Renfu succeeded Li Renfu, and Zhu Wen appointed Li Renfu as the envoy of Xiazhou Jiedu, which was the predecessor of the later Western Xia Kingdom.

Wei Bojiedu caused Luo Shaowei to die of illness, and his second son Luo Zhouhan took the throne, and Zhu Wen also issued official documents.

Ma Yin, the king of Chu, requested that he be given the title of General of Heavenly Strategy, but Zhu Wen actually had no intention of delving into it, and agreed. Ma Yin was overjoyed, and in the name of General Tiance, he opened a government and appointed his younger brother as the left and right ministers, where he dominated the side.

Not long after Liu Zhijun's rebellion, something happened in Zhenzhou again. Cheng Dejun caused the death of Wang Rong's grandmother the Prince of Zhao, and Zhu Wen sent envoys to mourn. The people sent back and said that the Jin kingdom had also sent envoys to mourn.

Zhu Wen became suspicious, so he wanted to annex Hebei so that Wang Rong would not defect to the Jin state.

In November of the fourth year of Kaiping (910), Zhu Wen sent the enshriners Du Tingyin and Ding Yan to Zhenzhou under the pretext that Liu Shouguang the Prince of Yan had the intention of going south to attack Zhenzhou and Dingzhou, and assisted Wang Rong in defending the city. At the same time, Zhu Wen also transferred thousands of Wei Bo soldiers to be stationed in Shenzhou and Jizhou. His intention is obvious, that is, to insert a thorn into Wang Rong's body, as long as Wang Rong is found to have misconduct, he can immediately kill him.

Although Wang Rong knew that Liang Jun was not well here, it was not good to openly refuse. What kind of person Zhu Wen is, he knows very well, if he really tears his face, with his own little strength, he is not his opponent at all.

Wang Rong's general Shi Gonggong was stationed in Shenzhou at the time, and when he received the news, he immediately sent someone to tell Wang Rong to refuse Du Tingyin and Ding Yanhui. Wang Rong not only did not listen, but ordered Shi Gong to return to Zhenzhou.

Shi Gonggong cried when he walked out of the city gate: "The surname Zhu destroyed the Great Tang, and the three-year-old child knew that he had evil intentions, but King Zhao let him garrison troops beside him, this is a door opening and thieves!" The deep state is over, and the people of the deep state are finished. ”

After Shi Gong left, Du Tingyin led Wei Bo's troops into the city, and the people of Shenzhou were so frightened that they all ran outside the city.

Du Tingyin ordered Wei Bojun to close the city gate and kill all the defenders in the city. Then he sent troops to capture Jizhou and washed the city of Jizhou in blood.

Shi Gonggong returned to Zhenzhou and once again warned Wang Rong, saying that Zhu Wen was a villain who did not talk about credit, and he must be wary of him.

Wang Rong was still half-convinced, and when the news of the robbery of Shenzhou and Jizhou reached Zhenzhou, he knew that Zhu Wen had murderous intentions against him, so he decided to jump out of Zhu Wen's thief ship. Shi Gong was ordered to lead troops to retake Shenzhou and Jizhou.

It is easy to lose the city, it is difficult to capture the city, Du Tingyin and others closed the city gates, strictly guarded against death, with the little army under Shi Gonggong, it was really helpless.

The jurisdiction of the Chengde army was only Zhenzhou, Zhaozhou, Shenzhou, and Jizhou, and losing Shenzhou and Jizhou was losing half of the territory, and Wang Rong panicked in his heart and sent people around to ask for help.

He first sent people to Dingzhou, used money diplomacy, and paid off the Yiwu Jiedu envoy Wang Zhizhi, asking him to join in the fight against the Liang state. Then he sent people to the Yan and Jin kingdoms to report urgency and asked them to send troops to support.

Liu Shouguang, the king of Yan, had only recently received benefits from Zhu Wen, and he did not want to offend Zhu Wen, the devil, and turned away the people sent by Wang Rong.

Li Cunxuan believes that this is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity. He believed that controlling the Zhenzhou and Dingzhou areas could not only threaten the eastern front of the Liang Dynasty, but also encircle Youzhou on three sides. At the same time, Jin and Liang are mortal enemies who do not share the sky, and helping Wang Rong is equivalent to helping themselves.

Li Cunxuan warmly received the envoys sent by Wang Rong and promised to send troops to Zhenzhou. At this time, the king of Dingzhou also sent envoys, saying that he was willing to unite Zhenzhou, elect the king of Jin as the lord of the alliance, and join forces to attack the state of Liang.

Li Cunxuan agreed to the request of the two countries and immediately sent Zhou Dewei with tens of thousands of soldiers and horses to Zhaozhou to help Wang Rong.

Wang Rong saw that Hedong's reinforcements had arrived, and he was relieved. In his eyes, only the one-eyed dragon's Hedong Army had the strength to compete with Zhu Wen's Liang Dynasty. When Zhu Wen heard that the Jin army was aiding Zhao, he also knew that a strong enemy had come, and ordered Wang Jingren, Han Cang, Li Si'an and others to lead 100,000 soldiers and horses in the Northern Expedition, intending to cut off the threat from the north in one fell swoop.

Liang Jun marched into Zhenzhou and reached Baixiang.

Seeing that the Liang army was menacing, Wang Rong knew that he was invincible, and once again sent people to the Jin state for help.

Li Cunxuan received an urgent report from Wang Rong and decided to personally lead the army to the East, and ordered Li Cunfan, deputy commander-in-chief of the Han Dynasty, and others to stay in Taiyuan and join the 5,000 soldiers and horses of Wang Zhizhi of Dingzhou to march.

Li Cunxuan traveled day and night, rushed to Zhaozhou to meet with Zhou Dewei, and set up camp in Yehe. It is only five miles away from Baixiang.

In this way, a three-way alliance was formed to jointly resist Liang, and the battle of Baixiang was about to break out.

Li Cunxuan had been in the battlefield for a long time, and did not dare to rashly use troops until he found out the details of the Liang army. He first sent Zhou Dewei to lead troops to provoke, but the Liang army held on without fighting.

If the challenge fails, it will be changed to "scolding formation".

In ancient warfare, there was a method of warfare called cursing warfare, in which the two warring parties used this method of warfare when one side refused to fight and the other side had no good way to attack the other side. The side that scolds the war, selects some loud voices to come to the front of the enemy army to scold, what is ugly, scold what words, the purpose is to scold the other party, so that the other party can not bear the humiliation, stand up and act, as long as the scolded side fights, the purpose is achieved.

Liang and Jin fought for hegemony, and Zhou Dewei broke the Liang army in the Battle of Baixiang, breaking Zhu Wen's backbone in a battle and burying the elite

Zhou Dewei selected a group of loud cavalry to approach the Liang camp, rode on the horse and cursed, some people simply jumped off their horses, threw away their clothes, went into battle shirtless, rushed at the Liang camp, insulted in every way, and made some obscene actions in their hands, scolding the ancestors of the Liang army, the eighth generation, the seventh aunt and eight grandmothers.

The madness and contempt of the Jin army finally annoyed Han Xing, the deputy envoy of the Liang army. In a fit of anger, he personally led 30,000 soldiers and horses out of the camp.

Zhou Dewei saw that the snake came out of the hole, and immediately sent gold to collect the troops.

Han Cang had already been provoked, and where he was willing to give up, he divided the 30,000 horses into three teams and pursued the Jin army separately.

When the officers and men of the Jin army saw that the Liang army's armor was bright and dazzling, they could not help but waver a little in their hearts and showed a look of horror on their faces.

Zhou Dewei looked in his eyes and shouted at the soldiers: "The other party is the Tianwu Army of Bianzhou, most of them are from merchants and small people in the city, don't look at their distinctive clothes, in fact, they are all a bunch of wine bags and rice bags, ten people can't resist you alone, you catch one, peel off their clothes, you can make a small fortune." This is called a rare opportunity, don't miss the opportunity! ”

Liang and Jin fought for hegemony, and Zhou Dewei broke the Liang army in the Battle of Baixiang, breaking Zhu Wen's backbone in a battle and burying the elite

The soldiers were inspired, and sure enough, they came to the spirit, regained their courage, and fought with the enemy.

Zhou Dewei divided the soldiers and horses into two ways, specifically hitting the two ends of the Liang soldiers, rushing left and right, entering and exiting several times, and capturing hundreds of enemies.

The Jin army fought and left, returning to the Yehe camp, Li Cunxuan sent troops to respond, and the Liang soldiers retreated.

After Zhou Dewei returned to the camp, he suggested to Li Cunxuan that the enemy army was fierce and gaining momentum, and that the Jin army should temporarily stand still, avoid its edge, dampen its spirit, and wait for them to be tired before launching an attack.

Li Cunxuan disagreed with him, believing that the Jin army came from afar to save people in danger, and it was beneficial to fight quickly, and it was not a good way to stay put.

Zhou Dewei explained that the soldiers of Zhenzhou and Dingzhou could only defend the city, not field battles, and the Jin army were battle-hardened cavalry, and only by fighting in the wilderness could they exert their advantages. What's more, now the enemy is outnumbered, and if the enemy knows the truth about our army, the coalition forces will be in danger.

Zhou Dewei's analysis can be described as knowing the other party's confidant, but Li Cunfeng did not wake up, silently did not answer, and returned to the account.

Zhou Dewei was very depressed, and after coming out, he said to Zhang Chengye: "The king does not measure his strength, he just wants to fight a quick victory. Now we are only separated from the enemy by a water, and if the enemy builds a bridge to kill us, our army will not be able to resist. It is better to retreat to the defense of Gaoyi, lure the enemy out of the camp, and then send troops to seize the enemy's food and grass, and within a month, the enemy army is self-defeated. ”

Zhou Dewei used the tactics of Luzhou to attack the village.

Zhang Chengye felt that what Zhou Dewei said was reasonable, and immediately went to Li Cunxuan, conveyed Zhou Dewei's strategic intentions, and finally said: "Zhou Dewei is a veteran, has been in the battlefield for a long time, has rich combat experience, Jiang is still old and spicy, his combat strategy is extremely reasonable, must be considered." ”

"I'm thinking about it! His words make sense. Li Cunxuan jumped up and immediately summoned Zhou Dewei to the account, ordering him to retreat to Gaoyi.

Later, the Jin army captured the prisoners of the Liang army and learned from their mouths that Wang Jingren was indeed building a pontoon bridge and preparing to cross the river to fight.

Li Cunfeng praised Zhou Dewei for his foresight and praised him. It was the fourth year of Liang Kaiping (910) - in winter, the two armies truce and no fighting.

The winter had passed, and in the blink of an eye, it was the first month of the first year of Qianhua (911), and the Jin army repeatedly sent rangers to harass the Liang soldiers, and the Liang soldiers who cut grass and fed their horses were mostly captured, and the Liang soldiers remained closed.

Zhou Dewei ordered the rangers to invade the Liang camp, and the Liang soldiers suspected an ambush, and did not dare to move, and the spare horses were eaten, and many war horses starved to death.

Zhou Dewei saw that the Liang soldiers did not fight for days, and he wanted to lure them out more and more, so he and the second generals Shi Jianyao and Li Siyuan, with 3,000 elite soldiers, personally went to lure the enemy.

They came to the gate of the enemy's wall, ordered the soldiers to insult the general Houliang and the emperor Zhu Wen by name, shook out all the ugly things of their princes, scolded for an hour or two, and finally annoyed the Liang soldiers, and opened the gate of the village to fight.

Liang soldiers poured out like a tide, and it was the main general Li Si'an who was the leader. Zhou Dewei ordered the cavalry to come forward to engage in battle, and after only a few rounds of killing, Zhou Dewei led the troops to retreat.

The Jin army fled in front, and the Liang army chased behind, all the way to the Yehe River.

The pontoon bridge on the river was guarded by the Jin general Li Cunzhang, who let his troops cross the bridge and block the Liang soldiers.

Liang soldiers stretched for several miles and rushed forward to seize the bridge. The Zhenzhou and Dingzhou troops were divided into left and right to resist the Liang soldiers, but they were all killed and retreated by the Liang soldiers, and they could not resist it.

Li Cunxuan climbed high to watch the battle and said to Li Jianhe, the commander of the capital: "If the enemy crosses the pontoon bridge, our army will not be able to return to the sky." ”

Li Jianhe jumped out angrily and led 200 pikemen to rush onto the pontoon bridge to support Li Cunzhang. All the armies were ten, ten and hundred, marched forward bravely, and killed the Liang soldiers with a bang.

Liang Bing took a short break and came to seize the bridge again.

Li Cunzhang, Li Jianhe and others still held on to the pontoon bridge and did not allow Liang soldiers to move forward. From the time of the killing, the Jin army repelled several attacks by the Liang army, and both sides suffered heavy casualties.

This great battle was the second vicious battle between Liang and Jin.

Liang and Jin fought for hegemony, and Zhou Dewei broke the Liang army in the Battle of Baixiang, breaking Zhu Wen's backbone in a battle and burying the elite

Li Cunxuan stood on a high place and said to Zhou Dewei beside him: "The two armies face each other, the victory or defeat is unpredictable, success or failure is here, I am willing to be the vanguard, you will follow, you must defeat them, only to solve the hatred in my heart." "Say, step on the war horse, and you will rush down the mountain."

Zhou Dewei rushed forward and grabbed the reins of the horse, saying that Liang's army was strong and could only be outwitted and could not be defeated. Liang soldiers were far away from the camp, although they had dry food, but they did not have time to eat, and when the enemy was tired and thirsty, they would definitely win a big victory by ordering elite soldiers to attack. He asked Li Cunfeng to wait patiently for the opportunity.

Li Cunxuan was a little reluctant to dismount at this time, and ordered the soldiers to quickly find time to eat and prepare for the big battle.

The two armies by the river are still shouting and killing for days, and fierce fighting continues.

As the sun set and twilight fell, Liang Bing was still hungry and fighting the war, tired, the shouts of killing became smaller and smaller, and gradually retreated.

The Jin army on this side of the river has already taken time to fill their stomachs.

Liang and Jin fought for hegemony, and Zhou Dewei broke the Liang army in the Battle of Baixiang, breaking Zhu Wen's backbone in a battle and burying the elite

Seeing that the time was ripe, Zhou Dewei climbed high and shouted: "Liang Bing escaped, kill it!" Then he stepped on his war horse and rushed down the hill first, crossed the pontoon bridge, and pounced on the enemy position.

Liang Bing had no fighting spirit and fled one after another. Wang Jingren, Han Cang, Li Si'an and others were also caught in the chaotic army, running wildly without life.

Li Cunzhang led his troops in pursuit, and made the soldiers shout: "Liang people are also brothers, as long as they surrender, they can avoid death." ”

After hearing this, Liang soldiers threw away their armor and raised their arms to surrender.

Zhao Jun harbored the old hatred of Shenzhou and Jizhou, unwilling to surrender, and along the way like a fierce wind sweeping away leaves, whether it was Liang soldiers who resisted with guns or surrendered, see one, kill one, see two, kill a pair. Bianzhou's elite troops were almost completely destroyed. From Yehe to Baixiang, corpses are strewn all over the field, blood is flowing into canals, defeated flags and halberds are broken everywhere.

The Jin army chased all the way to Baixiang, and there was no one in the Liang barracks, and the military food and weapons left behind were piled up. Li Siyuan led his troops until Xingzhou before retiring them.

Liang and Jin fought for hegemony, and Zhou Dewei broke the Liang army in the Battle of Baixiang, breaking Zhu Wen's backbone in a battle and burying the elite

In the Battle of Baixiang, the world was shaken, and the Jin army cleaned up the battlefield and counted the results: more than 20,000 enemies were killed, 3,000 war horses were captured, more than 70,000 armored weapons were captured, and Liang general Chen Siquan and his subordinates were captured 285 men.

Li Cunxuan collected his troops and stationed them in Zhaozhou, preparing to rest for one night before sending troops to attack Shenzhou and Jizhou.

Liang Guojiedu made Du Tingyin and others, hearing that Liang Bingbai Township was defeated, also abandoned the city and fled. Before leaving, he robbed all the strong men in the two states and buried the old and weak women and children in the city alive.

When the Jin army rushed to Shenzhou and Jizhou, only broken ruins and rubbles remained. From then on, the towns of Zhenzhou and Dingzhou became enemies with Later Liang and changed to the former Tang dynasty.

The Battle of Kashiwa Township is a famous battle in the history of the Five Dynasties. This battle broke Zhu Wen's backbone, and the elite troops of the Liang Dynasty suffered heavy losses, and almost all the troops participating in the battle were destroyed.

From then on, Wang Rong of Zhenzhou and Wang Zhizhi of Dingzhou fell to Li Cunxuan in an all-round way, and Zhu Wen lost control of Hebei. Houliang also turned from prosperity to decline, slumped, and gradually became weak in the struggle for hegemony with the Jin state.
