Chapter 331: The Seventh Army Didn't
For their future, Zong Han and Gao Qingyi are close to despair in their hearts, after all, where is the situation, if they want to turn things around, the opportunity is not as good as just in case, but what Zong Han is looking forward to is this "what if", even if this goal is not achieved, he will drag as many people as possible to die together!
Seeing that the time had come, Yelu Yu saw that he led his subordinates Xiao Qing Han Funu to bid farewell to Zong Han and wanted to go upstream. Who knew that Zong Han temporarily changed his mind and said: "Arson is just a trivial matter, why should the marshal go in person?" "But he wanted to keep Jerod with him.
Han Funu and Xiao Qing looked at each other, Zong Han glanced at them and said, "What?" ”
Yelu Yu saw helplessness, and hurriedly said to Xiao Qing Han Funu: "Since Your Majesty has decided, you can go." I'll stay with Your Majesty, and I'll be fine. Remember, when you see a signal, you can break the ice, and don't make a mistake! ”
Zong Han was quite satisfied when he saw Yelu Yu being obedient.
It's night, and the night before the chaos seems unusually quiet, so quiet that it's frighteningly quiet. After the second watch, there was still no movement around. One moment, two quarters, three moments! Still no movement!
When it was nearly three watches, a military horse quietly approached, it was Xia Jun! But after all, Brother Wei Mingcha was old and cautious, he did not lead the army and horses straight towards the agreed gate, but first outflanked the whole camp in a roundabout way, surrounded the entire camp from front to back, left and right, lined up the formation, and then slowly approached by an elite infantry.
It's Xia Jun! The Xia army is here, but what about the Han army? How is there a trace of the Han army? Because Zong Han was prepared, although Xia Jun's actions were secretive, they were still spied on by Jin Jun. At the time of the third watch, Xia Jun really appeared at the east gate of the camp and sent a secret signal to Yelu Yujian to open the door quickly.
Seeing that the Xia army was besieging the village and the Han army was not coming, Zong Han shouted, jumped up like crazy, pointed at Yelu Yu and asked, "What's the matter!" What's going on! What about Xiao Tienu? What about the disease? Why didn't it show up!"
Yelu Yu was stunned, and didn't know how to answer for a while.
Outside the gate, the pioneer of Brother Wei Ming Cha sent a secret signal three times in a row, but did not get a response, Brother Wei Ming Cha heard the news in the back, and knew that there was a change, and the general or persuaded him to retreat quickly, Brother Wei Ming Cha sneered: "Retreat? Why retreat? Surround me! Attack directly! Even if there is no Yelu Yu to see the dedication, I don't care about Zong Han's soldiers and horses! ”
The generals are ordered to attack immediately! This night, which was so quiet that it felt strange, suddenly erupted into the sound of rushing and killing. The Jin army in the village was prepared, the Xia army attacked, and immediately met the battle, Brother Wei Ming Cha is a person who has been in the army for a long time, seeing the reaction of the Jin army in the village, he knew that they were not in a hurry to respond, sneered twice, and a general said: "King Jin, it seems that the Jin army is prepared!" Is it true that he is earning us? Then we have to be careful! Brother Wei Mingcha laughed and said, "Earn us? How to earn? A small camp, our army rushed over and leveled it with our feet! If Yelu Yu had set up such a scheme, it would have been so funny! ”
Zong Han in the camp saw that the Han army was not there, and the Xia army attacked the village, and he suddenly fell into an extremely unfavorable situation. He had been unable to sleep for two nights, and his mental state was extremely unstable, and his eyes were red at this time, and he pointed at Yelu Yu and shouted, "You...... You betrayed me! "When he pulled out the knife, he was about to kill, and his back tightened, and he was hugged by Wanyan Xiyin. Zong Han said angrily: "What are you doing! ”
Wanyan Xiyin said: "The Han army has not arrived, maybe there is another delay. ”
Zong Han said angrily: "But it's more likely that he is hindering it!" ”
Wanyan Xiyin said: "Anyway, he is in our hands now, I'm not afraid of him running away!" The most important thing now is to deal with the Xia army outside the camp! ”
Gao Qingyi also said: "Yes, it is important to deal with the current crisis!" I...... I'm going to give the order to set fire! ”
Seeing that the Jin Army's lonely village was difficult to hold for a long time, suddenly a firework rushed up from the village, and Wei Mingrenli saw it in the city, and exclaimed: "Set off fireworks at night, there must be a plan!" I'm afraid they're talking to someone! ”
Brother Wei Mingcha also saw it in the army, and muttered, "Who are they setting off this firework for?" Who else can save them now? Don't...... Could it be that Zong Han really colluded with Xiao Tienu? Is this a call for help? ”
The general may persuade him to withdraw his troops quickly, so as not to fall into the trap, but Brother Wei Mingcha sneered: "It's just a firework, why worry too much!" While ordering people to reconnoiter the surrounding forests and grasses to prevent ambushes, he urged the front-line soldiers to step up their attacks, to conquer the camp before the Han army arrived, and capture Zong Han alive.
Xia Jun was desperately working under the urging of the generals, and suddenly there was a strange sound behind him! They looked back, and the upper reaches of the Lingzhou River were blazing, and they didn't know what was going on, and then a fire snake meandered over, and the ice actually burned! It turned out that Xiao Qing Han Funu not only used firearms to blow up debris and boil the ice surface upstream, but also sprinkled fire water (oil) on the river surface of the Lingzhou River, and ignited it, the ice surface that was not very solid was a little thinner, and the upstream water surged, and the fragile ice surface downstream could not withstand it, so the domino effect collapsed, and the water mixed with ice surging downstream.
After Xia Jun flickered in the firelight, he heard the aquatic thunder approaching, and everyone was frightened. "Hurriedly ordered the army to retreat to the high ground farther from the river, but it was not easy to make the army suddenly retreat when the fighting was raging.
The camp of the Jin army was originally stationed on a low ground by the river. The Xia army wanted to surround the camp, so a part of the soldiers risked a detour from the ice skin on the river surface, and at this moment the water suddenly came, and some of the Xia troops did not have time to withdraw, or sank to the bottom of the water due to the ice breakage, or were simply swept away by the cold and bone-chilling water! Although most of the Xia army retreated to the shore, the matter did not end there. The river above the camp has been made thin by the Jin army, but the ice below the camp is still strong, and the water rushing from the upstream cannot rush into the Yellow River for a while, so it rushes towards the place where it is easy to vent, and the embankment facing Lingzhou City has been secretly destroyed by Gao Qingyi, and the water is bad at the touch! In a short time, the ice water poured into the lowland where the Jin army camp was located, and the camp still had a fence and sandbags to block the water, but the Xia army that was besieging outside the village fell into the water, most of the Xia people were not accustomed to water, and they were drowned in this fatal spring cold, even if they were not drowned, they would be frozen to death.
Brother Wei Mingcha was terrified, and hurriedly ordered to withdraw to Lingzhou City! The Xia army was in turmoil.
Zong Han saw that the water was coming as scheduled, so he relieved Yelu Yujian's doubts a little, but still let Wanyan Xiyin monitor him, and led his soldiers to get on the raft and boat, with his back to the water, and went out of the village to kill the Xia army. The Jin army was prepared, the Xia army was defenseless, one borrowed the power of water, the other was harmed by water, and the battle situation was one-sided. The water rolled up the corpses of countless Xia Jun, and rushed straight to the city of Lingzhou, I don't want the foundation of the Lingzhou city wall to be secretly destroyed, and the soil was frozen extremely strong in the severe winter, and it was not easy to find, at this time, the water rushed in, and the root of the city wall immediately attacked, Zong Han saw that the city wall was collapsed by the water, and he was overjoyed, and led the army to kill it from the fracture.
The Jin army is not good at water warfare, and it is not flexible to move on the water, but after all, there are boats and rafts to rely on, and the situation is much better than the Xia army who suddenly encountered a catastrophe! In the chaos, Brother Wei Mingcha lost contact with his subordinates and disappeared, which made the already panicked Xia Jun even more chaotic!
Zong Han stood on the boat, watching Xia Jun struggle to escape in the water, facing the pursuit of the Jin army without the power to fight back, he couldn't help laughing, he seemed to forget that even if he won this battle, it would be difficult to change his final ending, but just immersed in the victory in front of him and couldn't help himself.
The water suddenly came, but after all, the stamina was insufficient, and it didn't take long for the water to retreat, and most of the Xia army that was not swallowed by the water also fled to the high ground to avoid the water, but the formation and establishment of the Xia army had been seriously damaged, and the Jin army galloped vertically and horizontally, and the killing was not counted. Killing until dawn, the survivors of the Xia army gradually stabilized their positions, and each of them guarded the danger to resist the Jin soldiers.
After all, the Jin army has few people, and in the dark night, it is enough to chase and kill people and horses in the water by boat and raft, and the sky is gradually brightening, and the situation is gradually clear, and the Xia army is enough to resist the attack of the Jin army even if they fight separately, but when the Jin army's advantage is about to end, suddenly a team of men and horses shouted: "I have caught Brother Wei Mingcha!" I've caught Brother Mingcha! ”
Zong Han was overjoyed, and hurriedly led the men and horses to rush over, and saw that Brother Wei Mingcha had no crown and no robe, covered with mud, and was extremely embarrassed, it turned out that he fell off his horse in the chaos, and his subordinates were scattered, and he didn't have time to join the subordinates, so he dodged and fled for half the night, and was caught by Zong Han's subordinates.
Gao Qingyi saw that he had taken Brother Mingcha, and jumped up on the bamboo raft with joy, and when Brother Mingcha saw Zong Han, he snorted and said, "Sticky Han!" You released water to flood Lingzhou, and now the army is scattered and the Han army is coming, see how you resist! What's in it for you then? ”
Zong Han raised his eyes and looked around, and saw that the city wall of Lingzhou facing the Lingzhou River either collapsed or pierced, even if the Western Xia army was complete, it would be difficult to rely on it to resist Xiao and plant, not to mention that now the Xia army has no leader and is scattered? However, he only hesitated for a long time, and then his face showed a crazy state again, pointing at Brother Wei Mingcha and saying loudly: "That's right, that's right!" I'm no good! But you're going to die before I do! As he spoke, he drew his knife and slashed at his head.
Gao Qingyi was taken aback, and rushed up and shouted: "Your Majesty, only by keeping him can you control the rest of the Western Xia ......" But where is it still too late? Zong Han's blade was over, and the head of Brother Wei was broken, this famous party general who had been rampant in the northwest for many years, Yuan Ye and Gao Qingyi generally thought that Zong Han would use himself and not kill him immediately, so he didn't expect that he would die so quickly! When the blood spurted out of his neck, there was a look of disbelief in his eyes.
After Zong Han killed Gao Qingyi, his eyes were red, he turned around, pointed a knife at Yelu Yu and shouted, "You...... You're not a good thing either! Raising his knife, he slashed at Yelu Yujian, and Gao Qingyi was even more shocked, and pounced on him and shouted: "Your Majesty! Calm down! Suddenly, there was a pain in his back, Zong Han's knife had penetrated through his back, and blood poured out of Gao Qingyi's mouth through the pierced stomach, and he barely raised his head, and he didn't have time to look at his long-time loyal master before he fell.
Seeing Gao Qingyi fall at his feet, Zong Han couldn't help but be stunned, and then laughed wildly: "Haha! Ha ha! Well dead! Well dead! Actually, when you're in the clouds, you're going to die! Why wait until now! Knowing that it was hopeless...... he drew his knife and continued to walk towards Yelu Yu.
Yelu Yu saw that there was no blade in his hand, and the armor on his body was also removed, seeing that Zong Han, who was already crazy, approaching step by step, he sighed secretly, knowing that he was not lucky, and muttered to himself: "Yang Qi! I hope you will be kind to my son, and don't break your word......"
In a flash of the sword, another hero fell.
