Chapter 353: Retreat

The city gate made a babbling sound, and it was slowly opened, Yang Zheng rode a white horse, and a machete in his hand from Zhang Yi asked for it, and shouted: "Sons, kill with me!"

"Kill it!"

The shouting was like thunder, and all the 5,000 soldiers shouted loudly, and the sound was like thunder.

Wangjiang Gate is the city gate in the southeast of Hangzhou in ancient times, which was built in the 28th year of Shaoxing in the Southern Song Dynasty and is called Xinmen. Because it has the Maoshan River Grass Bridge to the east, also known as the Grass Bridge Gate. From the end of the Song Dynasty and the beginning of the Yuan Dynasty to the thirteenth year of the Yuan Dynasty, the Yuan soldiers occupied Hangzhou, and Wangjiangmen was also destroyed in the war. At the end of the Yuan Dynasty to the nineteenth year of the reconstruction of the city wall, expand the east city three miles, build a gate here to change Yongchang, because the city tower can look at the Qiantang River tide in the distance, it is called Wangjiang Gate, here is an open place, the most suitable for siege, Maitreya Sect is also fancy this city gate, under the leadership of Li Fuda, 20,000 soldiers and horses accumulated.

Li Fuda was about to give an order, when he suddenly heard a cannon sound on the opposite side, followed by a shocking shout, and thousands of soldiers and horses rushed out of Wangjiang Gate like a tide under the leadership of a white horse general.

Li Fuda sat on the horse and sneered: "With only five thousand remnants, what kind of climate can it become, today you can see the power of my Maitreya Sect!" He had already learned from Zhu Zhantan that there were 5,000 Ming stragglers stationed in this ancient city, and his spies also found out that the 5,000 soldiers and horses in the city had no combat effectiveness, and it was after learning this news that he dared to personally lead the soldiers and horses to kill him, he believed that with the recent prestige of his Maitreya Sect, coupled with the name of his Maitreya Sect leader, the 5,000 soldiers and horses in this city heard that he personally led 20,000 soldiers and horses to come, and they had to surrender obediently.

But now the result made him a little unhappy, not to mention that the five thousand soldiers did not surrender, and judging from the shouting and killing, the momentum was not bad, and he couldn't help but be a little puzzled.

On the side is the Lei Hu who replaced Shen Yanqiu's position as the protector of the law, the Lei Leopard brothers, the two of them have just sat in the third position, eager to make a contribution, originally thought that when they came out of the big banner, the five thousand soldiers and horses in this city would surrender, but now take a closer look, it is not like that, the other party killed with five thousand soldiers and horses, not to mention, the momentum is not ordinary ferocious, and there is a feeling of being deceived.

Although the number of people is small, they wield a big sword and kill without hesitation, this momentum is not like that of stragglers.

After watching it for a while, the more I looked at it, the more wrong it became, and I couldn't help but feel a little nervous, I squinted at Li Fuda, and saw that his expression was quite calm, so I put my mind at ease.

Li Fuda had already seen that the five thousand soldiers and horses were definitely not a group of stragglers, but now that the soldiers and horses had been dispatched, even if it was a group of Ming elites in front of him, he had no choice but to kill them, but fortunately, the number of the other party was only five thousand, which made him feel a little relieved.

^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

"Sect Master, there are not many of these Ming troops, as long as we fight hard, we will definitely be able to seize the opportunity, and it is not too late to occupy the ancient city again?" Wei Fu hugged his fists.

Li Fuda said "um" and said: "Wei Protector is reasonable, Sun Tzu said: The law of using soldiers, ten will surround it, five will attack it, and if it is doubled, it will be fought, and the enemy can divide it, and if it is less, it can be defended, and if not, it can be avoided" Today, my Maitreya sect is several times with the enemy army, if you can't win in one fell swoop, it's too much to say, and the order to go down to the battle to escape will be killed!"

"Yes! Those who escape from the battle will be killed!" several Maitreya sects shouted loudly, their martial arts are strong, and this shout secretly uses their internal strength, and they have their own momentum.

At this time, the 5,000 men and horses led by Yang Zheng had already rushed out of Wangjiangmen and rushed towards Li Fuda's 20,000 soldiers and horses.

The distance between the two sides was not far, and the Ming army was mostly cavalry, and they rushed up after a short time.

Although these 5,000 soldiers and horses were fighting on the battlefield for the first time, they didn't have this momentum, but fortunately, after Yang Zheng arrived, Zhang Yi and Jin Yixiao stepped up their training for more than ten days, and the fighting on weekdays was also real, and it also had an effect at this time, although compared to the murderous spirit of those elite soldiers, and the means were weaker, but Zhang Yi rushed forward with a forty-pound machete like a tiger, one by one as if they had beaten chicken blood, and everyone fought hard.

Yang Zheng also unceremoniously brandished a machete and rushed forward, he didn't look good at these Maitreya teachings, and he didn't care if he was innocent or not, he killed with a big knife, and in a moment, he killed three people?"

He was a white horse, dressed in silver bargaining, and it was very easy to be seen in the crowd of fighting, and the five thousand soldiers behind him saw that the commander was so brave, everyone shouted and fought, and their morale was even stronger than before.

The Maitreya Sect can really fight but Wei Fu and Li Fuda led by each of the 5,000 men and horses, these 10,000 people are considered the elite troops of the Maitreya Sect, until the last resort, Li Fuda will never use it lightly, in this way, most of the people fighting on the field are some ruffians who have recently been recruited, as well as fugitives from all over the world, these people may be a higher level than these Ming troops in terms of killing, but it is the turn to charge into battle, since they are not the opponents of these trained Ming troops, they were killed by Zhang Yi and the cavalry led by Jin Yixiao several times, and they killed a lot of people.

These people in the rivers and lakes, when they took refuge in the Maitreya Sect, they just wanted to find a place to settle down, and many people just wanted to get the protection of the Maitreya Sect, and those ruffians just heard that the disciples of the Maitreya Sect, in and out of the red sleeves do not want silver, only to join the sect with a hot head, and never dreamed of going to the battlefield to fight, at the beginning there were many people, and they were not afraid, at this time, I saw Zhang Yi wielding a big knife to kill, killing people with real knives and guns, everywhere I went, I was down, these ruffians, the people in the rivers and lakes were scared, and they fled after killing for a while.

Li Fuda didn't take these 5,000 Ming soldiers in his eyes, after all, he had 20,000 horses, several times the enemy, and the other party was not the elite of the Ming Dynasty, such an army should be very easy to pack up, but when it really fought, he found that it was not like that, not to mention that these Ming soldiers fought very well, it was this wolf-like momentum, which made him feel that this group of soldiers was not a hand, and he couldn't help but beat a little drum in his heart.

At this time, seeing the people in the rivers and lakes are cowering into a ball and not daring to move forward, they can't help but smoke angrily, 20,000 people sounds like a lot, but it is also the most unbearable to fight, if you can't stabilize morale at this time, then the army will be scattered, and it will not be easy to form again, and this time he dispatched all the soldiers and horses, if he can not capture this city, it will undoubtedly be very unfavorable to capture other cities in the future.

"Useless things?" Li Fuda gritted his teeth and scolded, ignoring these people in the rivers and lakes, and turned his head to Wei Fu: "Wei Protector, you lead the sect brothers to kill, and you must eliminate this group of Ming troops?"

Wei Fu didn't expect this group of Ming troops to be so powerful, and the brothers under his command might not be able to stop it, so he hesitated a little and said: "Sect Master, now that our army is several times larger than the enemy, why don't we kill them together so that we can annihilate them in one fell swoop?"

Li Fuda was a little displeased, his brother, that was his old book, how could he fight at will, seeing Wei Fu's hesitation, he snorted and said: "What's the matter? Wei Protector is so hesitant, do you want to learn from Shen Yanqiu?" Wei Fu's body trembled, glanced at Li Fuda and hugged his fists and said: "My subordinates will kill it!"

As soon as the words fell, he pulled out the treasure knife on his waist, waved it and shouted: "Brothers, kill me!"

These were his henchmen, who heard the shouts of the order and rushed forward with a large sword.

These people are the elite of the Maitreya Sect, and they have a lot of training on weekdays, and their ability to fight is not comparable to those timid Jianghu people after all, I saw them wielding big knives and fighting against the Ming army.

Although the five thousand soldiers of the Ming army were under the leadership of Yang Zheng, they were fierce and unstoppable for a while, and killed many disciples of the Maitreya Sect, but after all, they were outnumbered, with the addition of Wei Fu's five thousand elites, all the advantages of the Ming army were immediately broken.

"My lord, there are too many enemy troops, we can't support it?" Zhang Yi grabbed the reins of the horse and rushed to Yang Zheng with a rough air, this guy has killed too many people, and he is covered in blood, if it weren't for him carrying a big knife in his hand to make Yang Zheng recognize him, what if he thought it was a spy from the Maitreya Sect who disguised himself like this and mixed in to spy on the military?

Yang Zheng also killed a lot of people, touched the blood on his face, and glanced at the swarming Maitreya sect members, those Maitreya sects under the leadership of Wei Fu were divided into left, middle and right armies to kill, and for a while, a group of people who were black and oppressed came to this side one after another.

"It seems that there are more than 10,000 people, and the other party obviously wants to surround us so as to destroy us in one fell swoop?" Jin Yi, who ran over with the reins of his horse, said with a frown.

"It's a big deal!" Zhang Yi said viciously.

Jin Yi frowned, and snorted coldly: "The enemy is four times larger than us, menacing, and looking at the opponent, he is also a master of using soldiers, how many people can you kill alone?"

I thought that Zhang Yi would shout, but the strange thing was that he didn't scold, but nodded and said: "Stinky poor sour, this time you are right, there are too many enemies, I am afraid that we will not be able to kill them just by fighting, what do you say we should do?"

Jin Yixiao glanced at Yang Zheng worriedly, seeing that he was silent, his lips moved, and he didn't say much.

Yang Zheng frowned and looked at it for a while, and said in his heart: "This Maitreya Sect dares to attack the ancient city of Hangzhou in the face of the world's condemnation, and it does have some ability, not to mention the side, even the five thousand elite soldiers in Wei Fu's hands are not easy to deal with!"

After pondering for a while, Yang Zheng's eyes flashed, and he retracted his gaze and said to Zhang Yi: "Brother Zhang, do you remember the story I told you just now?"

Zhang Yi was slightly stunned, and said in his heart: "When has this been, who still remembers the Raush story?"

Zhang Yi didn't understand, Jin Yixiao on the side was familiar with the art of war, and after hearing Yang Zheng's words, his eyebrows jumped, a hint of joy flashed in his eyes, and he looked at Yang Zheng and said, "My lord is talking about the story of the Duke of Jin retreating?"
