On the third day after the news of the Song army's northward advance reached Yanyun, the hidden team of the Jin army appeared! This cavalry force of about 20,000 people was the essence of the Jin army, led by Zong Bi and swept south! Behind this group of cavalry, there were 50,000 miscellaneous troops composed of Khitan, Yanren, and Han'er as follow-ups.

The timing of Zong Bi's appearance and the timing of Zhao Gou's northward advance are as tacit as they cooperate! Zong Bi's part rushed into Yang Kaiyuan's former army in the south of Yanjing City, rushing left and right, setting fire everywhere. Yang Kaiyuan's front army couldn't resist, and retreated into Tanggu under the response of the rear army, and Zongfu used all the Yanjing soldiers and horses, blocked all the roads out of Tanggu, and began to besiege the city!

And Zong Bi's main force rushed towards Wang Xuan, Wang Xuan's soldiers and horses were originally the military strength of the old Song system, at this time I heard that the Song army was advancing north, and the impact was more serious than that of Yang Kaiyuan's department, and he was already panicked before he could connect with the Jin soldiers, and when he encountered the Jin soldiers, he had no fighting spirit, and many soldiers did not care about military discipline, only knew how to escape, and the defeated soldiers affected each other, and the army collapsed faster!

Zong Bi led 15,000 elite cavalry all the way to cut over, from Yanjing to Baigou, dozens of miles were full of corpses, Wang Xuandu Baigou when there were only 3,000 people left, he led the troops across the boundary river into Tangnan, this had the opportunity to clean up the defeated soldiers, the cry of Tangnan City that night, all the accents of Shandong and Henan.

Zong Bi did not chase into Tangnan, but rushed to the southwest with the rout, and rushed into the base camp of the Qilu Army. The defeated army came so quickly, Zong Ying heard that Wang Xuan was defeated in the north and was just about to send troops to meet it, and the vanguard of the defeated army had already come into view.

"Here comes the golden man......"

The resurgence of the fear of the Jin people accumulated since Jingkang, the worsening fatigue of the past months, the despair of being betrayed by their relatives, and the atmosphere of defeat mixed together, like poison permeated the entire Qilu Legion, making it impossible for the Han soldiers who had lost their fighting spirit to react rationally.

In some cases, the number of troops is not as large as possible, and the hundreds of thousands of troops outside the city can still maintain a normal level at such a time, and the actions of most of the people not only do not help the situation to improve, but rather accelerate the deterioration of the situation!

The cavalry that Zong Bi arrived outside the city attacked in small groups, like a knife into the large and chaotic body of the Han army, and when they encountered a solid resistance, they gathered and charged, and destroyed everything that stood in their way with iron hooves! Yinshu can take the opportunity to go out of the city, and Zongbi inside and outside the attack, the Han army is in chaos.

"Handsome flag! Handsome flag! ”

In the chaos, Yinshuke's army first found Zong Ying's location, but Zong Bi's forward came first, and actually preempted the Yinshuke army - both armies were Jin army troops with high morale and were older than the battle formation, but Zong Bi's army had been recuperating for a long time, so it could produce such a terrifying explosive power.

"Whoa, whoa, whoa—"

The Jin army, with the Jurchen as the main backbone, rushed like a beast, as if it was not a human being on a horse, but a tiger, a leopard, and a wolf! It was as if they were wielding not swords, but fangs!

The tents of the rebel army arranged around Zongying's headquarters had long been chaotic or empty, and most of the soldiers and horses surrounding the periphery of the main camp had also been scared away. When Zong Ying's control over the army was strongest, he could mobilize more than 100,000 people at the same time, but at this time, the army was defeated, and in the chaos, he couldn't even keep the soldiers and horses of the main camp! Even Zong Ying's personal guards, some of them also began to tremble in this situation, the Jin army was still some distance away from them, but that sense of oppression had already beaten their nerves like a hammer!

"Capture the commander of the Han army alive!"

Jin Jun roared, closer and closer, closer and closer!

Just when he was in danger, suddenly an army came sideways and stopped in the middle. It's Liu Qi's troops!

"Reject the horse!"

"Arrows!"

The formation of the Jin army seems to be scattered and intensive, gathering a large number of cavalry within a certain space range, but each cavalry maintains a certain distance from each other, and this formation greatly reduces the accuracy of the enemy's bow and arrow.

The Han army could not send out enough arrows to contain the horse's feet between the lightning and flint, after paying the price of dozens of people falling off the horse, the Jin soldiers had forced to the front of the horse, the most advanced soldiers and horses were blocked by the horse spear, but in the case of ten thousand horsemen forging ahead, this small deterrent could not completely frighten the fanaticism of the latecomers, some of the Jin army rushed into Liu Qi's troops to fight hand-to-hand, and the other part went around the back to attack, the two armies were entangled together, the Jin army did not expect that this Han army was not crushed, And the Han army didn't expect to be instantly penetrated by the Jin army, and the brave won when they met on a narrow road! After the two sides enter hand-to-hand combat, there is only one way left, and there is no longer any tactics!

A group of Jin soldiers who outflanked from both sides rushed into Zong Ying's camp, and when they came out, only half of the men and horses were left, but Zong Ying's camp tent was already on fire everywhere.

On the battlefield at this time, except for the two entangled melee-fighting troops, all the people and all the horses were running, the Jin army was busy intercepting and killing, and most of the Han army, which had lost its organization, was busy fleeing for their lives. At this time, if someone can look down from the air, they will find that most of the people within a hundred miles are running from north to south - Yanyun's Jin army is pressing down from the north one after another, while the Han army is retreating to the south one by one, in this case, the number of Han troops outside Zhending City is getting smaller and smaller, and the number of Jin soldiers is increasing.

When Liu Qi rushed to Zong Ying's base camp with his personal guards, this place had been invaded by Jin soldiers four times, and although the sound of killing outside did not decrease at dusk, it was as if the Jin people wanted to vent the wretched spirit they had endured for half a year.

Liu Qi found the boss in a burning tent, and Zong Ying was already covered with dust, but he still stood very straight. Liu Qi jumped in and shouted, "Zong Shuai, go quickly!" ”

"Let's go?" Zong Ying said miserably: "Where are you going?" I mistook the country, I mistook China, I should stay here after the palace! Leave me alone, go! Come on! ”

Liu Qi shouted: "Tanggu has not fallen, Hedong still exists, let's regroup and fight with the Jin people again!" ”

Zong Ying's court screamed bitterly: "Regroup and fight again...... Uncle Xin, I'll leave it to you! ”

Liu Qi had to say again, and the deputy general of Zong Ying outside the tent said: "Zong Shuai, three thousand dead soldiers have been assembled!" ”

"Good!" Zong Ying took out a package and said to Liu Qi: "I died in battle, and the seal letter flag order cannot fall into the hands of the Jin people!" Now I entrust it to you, and I ask you to give orders on my behalf in times of urgency. And he said, "There is also a letter from me asking for sin in the package, and I ask you to pass it on my behalf." After speaking, he drew his sword and got on the horse, and said angrily to the dead soldiers: "Zhao Gou thief! In a corner of the south of the Yangtze River, stealing the position of the Ninth Five-Year Plan, it echoes the north and south of the Jin people, cutting off the vitality of our army! I only hate that I can't see through this thief's evil intentions as soon as possible, so that the army of hundreds of thousands will be destroyed in one fell swoop! Today's matter, I have no face to cross the river to see the Central Plains fathers, and I am willing to fold with this knife under the city of Zhending! I wish those who return from General Liu in order to plan for the future, and I wish those who stay with my palace! ”

All the dead soldiers were infected by their passion, and shouted in unison: "I am willing to fight to the death with the commander of the sect!" ”

In the midst of the fireworks, Xu Wen rode in and shouted: "Zong Shuai, General Liu, we can't stop it!" ”

Zong Ying got on his horse and shouted, "Go!" ”

Liu Qi shouted: "Zong Shuai! ”

Zong Ying glanced back at him, but didn't say anything more, and with a wave of his knife, he led the three thousand dead soldiers to rush north.

Xu Wen asked Liu Qi: "General, we ......"

"Let's go!" Liu Qi grabbed the package handed to him by Zong Ying and said, "Go west, go and join Cao Shuai—we must at least keep the vitality of the Hedong Army!" ”

Huayuan 1681, spring, the Han army Qilu corps deputy marshal Zong Ying died in battle, the head of the Jin people to show Hebei, Tanggu, the counties were shocked, Zong Bi's iron hooves passed, no one in the Hebei Plain could be its front, not a month, east of Taihang Mountain, north of the Daimyo's Mansion, west of Cangzhou was restored to the Jin army.

The chessboard of the Central Plains is once again chaotic into a pot of laba porridge.
