At three o'clock, when Xue Ao led the 5,000 Taiyuan cavalry to fight, Zhao Yu finally led more than 12,000 Yingchuan troops and more than 6,000 Liangcheng troops to the battlefield.

Just when he had just set foot in this battlefield, the brigade wolf, who was watching the battle on this battlefield, got in touch with Zhao Yu for the first time.

The brigade wolf governor Bo Xu Bai was the first to find Zhao Yu, and said to the latter with a solemn expression: "Du Wei, the five thousand Taiyuan cavalry led by General Xue are fighting with the rebels at this moment. ”

"What?"

Rao is Zhao Yu, and he was also taken aback after hearing Xu Bai's announcement.

That Xue Ao, without waiting for him to lead the army to arrive, led the 5,000 cavalry to attack more than 100,000 rebels?

"How's the battle going?" Zhao Yu asked a little nervously.

After all, Xue Ao's identity is not trivial, if there is any mistake in this cavalry general, how can he explain to Chen Taishi and the others who have never met?

Hearing Zhao Yu's inquiry, Xu Bai's face showed a little strange color, and he hugged his fists and said: "General Xue's five thousand cavalry killed the Yuzhang rebels in just one round of raids, and then, the Jiangxia rebels and the Jiangdong rebels each sent Zhu Yu and Zhong Yi to try to aid the Yuzhang rebels, but they were restrained by Dong Dian and Zhong Liao. …… At the moment, the cavalry led by Dong Dian and Zhong Liao is about to defeat Zhu Yu and Zhong Yi, while General Xue himself led about one or two thousand cavalry and went straight into the hinterland of the Yuzhang rebels, in the enemy's army...... It's like being in a no-man's land. ”

“……”

The more Zhao Yu listened, the more shocked he became, and the people beside him, Wang Qing, Niu Heng, and Gong Jiao, also showed surprise.

What's the situation?

Then Xue Ao led 5,000 cavalry to take the initiative to attack the more than 100,000 rebels, but he actually gained advantages in all aspects?

Those Taiyuan cavalry, are they so brave?

Frowning slightly, Zhao Yu instructed Wang Qingdao: "Wang Qing, you come to command the troops, I will go to observe the battle situation first." When you arrive at that battlefield, you first order the various departments to set up their formations, and wait for my orders. ”

At the critical moment, Wang Qing was still quite reliable, and immediately nodded without a smile: "Okay." ”

After instructing Wang Qing, Zhao Yu took hundreds of black tigers led by Niu Heng, Gong Jiao and Liu Tu, under the guidance of Xu Bai and his brigade wolves, left the army, rushed to the battlefield one step ahead, and climbed on a dirt slope to look at the battle situation in the distance.

At this time, the battlefield in the distance is the same as what Xu Bai said.

The 40,000 Jiangdong Righteous Division has withdrawn a large distance, at least three or four miles away from the main battlefield, and only a small army holding the banner of 'Jiangdong Righteous Division' is still entangled with the Taiyuan cavalry, which should be the Zhong Yi's troops that Xu Bai said.

In comparison, the number of Yuzhang Yishi, who also has 40,000 people, has shown an extremely chaotic situation at this moment, even if it is far away, Zhao Yu can clearly see that the soldiers of Yuzhang Yishi have fallen into chaos, some squeeze in the middle, and some flee around, it is simply chaos.

And in the middle, that is, the most chaotic place, there were about one or two thousand Taiyuan cavalry fighting with the soldiers of Yuzhang Yishi.

Although the number of Yuzhang Yishi over there was several times that of the one or two thousand Taiyuan cavalry, as far as Zhao Yu could see, it was the Taiyuan cavalry that was wantonly slaughtering, driving the mounts under the crotch to rush left and right, and disrupting the formation that Yuzhang Yishi had managed to organize again and again.

"Actually let the two thousand cavalry kill back and forth in the belly of the army, what are the generals of Yuzhang Yishi doing?"

Zhao Yu really couldn't understand it.

He didn't know that the generals of Yuzhang Yishi, such as Xu Di, Deng Wei, Huang Jun, Lu Yu, Zhang Dou and other generals, had already been killed by Xue Ao one after another, and Xu Di, who was lucky to have a breath left, was also desperately rescued by the loyal guards, and never dared to appear in front of Xue Ao again, in other words, at this moment, Yuzhang Yishi has completely fallen into a chaotic situation of losing his command, although Qu Shuai Cheng Zhou is still sparing no effort to command, but in all fairness, after losing the command of the 'general' level, as ' Cheng Zhou, who is handsome, is actually not easy to directly command to the level of 'Qu General', let alone command 100 generals and 500 generals below Qu General.

Frowning slightly, Zhao Yu once again set his eyes on Jiang Xia Yishi.

It is not difficult to speculate from the position of the three righteous divisions at the time of evacuation that the Jiangxia righteous division must bear the responsibility of the broken back, but the current problem is that although the Jiangdong righteous division as the former army was successfully evacuated, as the middle of the Yuzhang righteous division, it was entangled by Xue Ao's five thousand Taiyuan cavalry, which made the Jiangxia righteous division very embarrassed, neither able to retreat normally, nor able to assist the Yuzhang righteous division, after all, although Yuzhang's command was chaotic, nearly 40,000 soldiers occupied this battlefield, these panicked soldiers, Instead, he blocked Jiangxia Yishi from the outside.

Of course, if the Jiangxia Yishi does not move, it is also possible that he is waiting for him, waiting for the nearly 20,000 Jin troops led by him.

Zhao Yu guessed correctly, Chen Miao did not move his troops for a long time, and did not even send any more generals to help Yu Zhangyishi stabilize the situation, just to prevent Zhao Yu, or the nearly 20,000 Jin troops of Zhou Hu, the commander of Yingchuan.

Chen Miao knew very well that since Xue Ao led the 5,000 Taiyuan cavalry to launch an offensive against his more than 100,000 righteous divisions, then Zhou Hu would definitely come quickly with the nearly 20,000 Jin troops, and he had to block Zhou Hu's 20,000 Jin troops, otherwise, his more than 100,000 righteous divisions would definitely suffer a serious rout.

And it turns out that Chen Miao also guessed right.

"Report!"

With a sharp shout, several soldiers rushed to Chen Miao panting, clasping their fists and saying: "Qi, Qi Chen Shuai, on the right side of our army, a large number of traces of the Jin army have been found, which are the Yingchuan Army and the Liangcheng Army under Zhou Hu!" ”

"It's coming!"

Chen Miao's heart froze, and he immediately ordered: "Order Zhou Gong to ......"

As soon as these words came out, his voice stopped abruptly, and immediately, he sighed and shook his head towards the left and right guards: "That's it, I'll go personally." ”

With that, he turned his horse's head and headed towards the location of his general, Zhou Gong.

At the same time, Zhou Gong, the general under Chen Miao, had also learned the news that 'Zhou Hu's army had arrived on the battlefield', and was issuing orders to the generals under his command through the mouth of the herald.

Suddenly, he heard Chen Miao's voice coming from behind him: "Zhou Gong." ”

"Huh?"

Zhou Gong glanced back, and then saw that Chen Miao was coming from this side.

"Chen Shuai?" After Chen Miao stopped in front of him, Zhou Gong hugged his fists and asked with a puzzled expression: "Does Chen Shuai have other orders?" ”

Chen Miao shook his head, immediately looked at Zhou Gong, and said in a heavy tone: "Cheng Zhou's Yuzhang Yishi has been stirred up by Xue Ao's cavalry, I am going to go to Cheng Zhou, tell him to break his wrist, leave a part of the troops to contain Xue Ao, and the rest of the people will quickly evacuate." Therefore, whether or not they can block Zhou Hu's 20,000 Jin army is very important...... Please, Zhou Gong. ”

Listening to Chen Miao's heavy tone, Zhou Gong suddenly understood: the Chen Shuai in front of him personally came to give him an order, just to say a final goodbye to him.

Taking a deep breath, a bright smile appeared on Zhou Gong's face, and he solemnly hugged his fists and said: "Please rest assured that Chen Shuai will guarantee Zhou Gong with his life and will never give Zhou Hu a chance to pursue the evacuated army." ”

“……”

Chen Miao's face was moved, he stepped forward, stretched out his hand and patted Zhou Gong's arm, and said, "I know, because you have always been the most trusted general under my command." ”

Hearing this, Zhou Gong showed a little smile on his face, immediately looked at Chen Miao, solemnly hugged his fists, and said in a deep voice: "Over the years, thank you Chen Shuai for taking care of me. ”

“……”

Chen Miao's complexion changed slightly, a somewhat complicated look appeared in his eyes, and he was about to speak, but he saw Zhou Gong and said with a smile: "Okay, let's stop here, Chen Shuai, please evacuate quickly." ”

Chen Miao opened his mouth and sighed for a long time: "...... Take care. ”

"Chen Shuai also take care."

Zhou Gong smiled and hugged his fists.

After taking a few deep glances at Zhou Gong, Chen Miao relentlessly, turned the horse's head, and headed towards the other side.

During this period, he turned back several times, but saw that Zhou Gong still maintained the action of sending him away with his fists in a fist, and did not move for a long time.

『……』

Subconsciously clenched the reins, and Chen Miao fiercely ordered the left and right guards: "Command Xiang Xuan, follow me to retreat from the east side!" ”

"Yes!"

Chen Miao's figure finally disappeared from Zhou Gong's field of vision.

At this time, he put down his hands, turned his horse in the direction where Zhou Hujun was, and the smile on his face was quickly put away.

I saw him riding his horse forward, and shouted loudly: "I am Zhou Gong, and the soldiers under my command will obey the order, and next, we will be responsible for blocking Zhou Hujun!" ”

With his words, a number of heralds immediately dispersed in all directions, conveying the commander's order to the officers and men of the army.

"The general has an order, and our army will resist Zhou Hu's army!"

"The general has an order, and our army will resist Zhou Hu's army!"

I saw that under Zhou Gong's order, more than 10,000 Jiangxia righteous divisions slowly came out of the battle, facing the nearly 20,000 Jin troops led by Wang Qing, and set up an offensive posture.

"Huh?"

Zhao Yu, who was riding a horse and standing on the dirt slope in the distance, was surprised to see this scene.

He originally thought that the 20,000 Jiangxia Righteous Masters were all responsible for the Broken Queen, but for now, it seemed that Chen Miao only planned to use 10,000 Jiangxia Righteous Masters to contain him.

As for the other 10,000 soldiers......

Zhao Yu quickly glanced at the battlefield, and immediately he found that the 20,000 Jiangxia righteous divisions were divided into two, and the other group quickly detoured to the east, and he didn't know whether he wanted to help Yuzhang righteous divisions or prepare to evacuate.

"After only 10,000 people were left, then Chen Miao was really a little contemptuous...... Huh?'

was sighing, Zhao Yu was suddenly stunned.

Because he found that the army that dared to put on an offensive posture against his 20,000 Jin army, the soldiers in its army actually held the 'Zhou' character general flag.

"Zhou Gong? Is it Zhou Gong who left the broken queen?'

A hint of surprise flashed in Zhao Yu's eyes.

After all, as far as he knew, Zhou Gongnai was the most important general under Chen Xuan, and his talent was not inferior to Xiang Xuan.

Zhao Yu never thought that Chen Miao would let Zhou Gong lead the army to break off, you must know that judging from the current situation, the generals who left behind the break would almost die.

"Report!"

The two Yingchuan pawns with black scarves on their heads hurriedly came to the dirt slope where Zhao Yu was, clasped their fists and asked for instructions: "Captain, the enemy general Zhou Gong has put on an offensive posture against our army, and the two of us have been ordered to come and ask for instructions. ”

"Hmm......"

Zhao Yu nodded, lost in thought.

Even he had to admit that he underestimated the lethality of Xue Ao and his 5,000 Taiyuan cavalry, but he didn't expect that the 40,000 Yuzhang righteous divisions would be turned into a plate of scattered sand by Xue Ao's 5,000 cavalry.

It is no exaggeration to say that the 40,000 Yuzhang volunteers have almost lost their combat ability at this time, and only the 20,000 Jiangxia volunteers and 40,000 Jiangdong volunteers are still in combat power, but the embarrassing thing is that these two Yishi do not want to continue to entangle with the Jin army - seeing that the Jiangdong Yishi has evacuated by themselves and has not turned back to help Yuzhang Yishi, I know that 'evacuation' is the priority strategy of these three Yishi.

"In order to evacuate as soon as possible, the three-way righteous master has a lot of scruples, and he doesn't want to give up everything to entangle with us, but he is constrained by our side, if it goes on like this, it is not good that Xue Ao and I can really defeat these more than 100,000 righteous teachers in one go......

Zhao Yu frowned and pondered.

It is true that it is a good thing to win the battle, but is it really good to hit these three righteous teachers hard at this time?

You must know that Chen Miao's Jiangxia Yishi and Cheng Zhou's Yuzhang Yishi can hold off the main force of the Jin Kingdom for one more day, and the Jiangdong Yishi will have one more day to recuperate in the territory that Taishan has just laid down, not to mention, this battle also involves 40,000 Jiangdong Yishi.

As a 'traitor' mixed in the camp of the Jin Kingdom, Zhao Yu was not thinking about how to severely damage these three-way righteous masters, but how to quietly let them escape, and also delay the time for the Jin Kingdom to suppress the rebellion, so as to buy time for the Jiangdong righteous masters to recuperate.

Of course, in order to avoid being recognized, Zhao Yu can't go too far, so he needs to think about it.

"Zhou Gong's 10,000 Jiangxia Righteous Masters must not be able to escape, and it seems that the other party doesn't seem to want to evacuate, okay, that's 10,000 places...... As for the 40,000 Yuzhang Yishi, it is estimated that it will be difficult to retreat from this situation, so leave half of it. That's a total of 30,000 places. …… With 30,000 broken enemies, I can almost explain to Xue Ao."

After careful consideration, Zhao Yu ordered in a deep voice: "Pass my order, order Wang Qing to attack Zhou Gongjun, and then order Wang Xun and Zhang Qi to lead their respective troops to attack the Yuzhang rebels, and help Dong Dian and Zhong Liao!" ”

"Yes!" The two Yingchuan soldiers left in response.

After a while, Zhao Yu's order reached the ears of Wang Qing, Wang Xun, and Zhang Qi.

In this regard, Wang Qing faintly felt a little strange, after all, Zhao Yu used troops, and always liked to concentrate superior forces to take the lead in breaking through the enemy's small forces, in order to achieve the purpose of reducing the number of enemy troops, in other words, according to common sense, Zhao Yu should have asked him to attack more than 12,000 Yingchuan County and more than 6,000 Liangcheng troops to attack the more than 10,000 Zhou Gong army, and after defeating them, they would turn to attack the Yuzhang rebels together.

But this time, their big leader did the opposite, ordering him to attack the Zhou Gong army with the Yingchuan army, and ordered Wang Xun and Zhang Qi to attack the Yuzhang rebels - 12,000 Yingchuan troops, which had no advantage over the more than 10,000 Jiangxia righteous divisions of Zhou Gong.

But Wang Qing didn't care, after all, as far as he could see, the 40,000 Yuzhang rebels who had fallen into chaos seemed to have become the softest soft persimmon on this battlefield at this moment, if it weren't for Zhou Gong's more than 10,000 Jiangxia righteous masters watching him, even he wanted to take a bite of that soft persimmon.

That's all meritorious, he, Uncle Wang Qing, missed an opportunity to be promoted to the upper captain, but he won't miss the second time.

Taking a deep breath, Wang Qing waved his hand and ordered: "Pass the order, order Zhang Ji, Cao Wu, Qin Yu, and Jia Shu to prepare to attack, the target, the opposite Zhou Gong army!" ”

"The commander of the royal department has an order, ordering Zhang Ji, Cao Wu, Qin Yu, and Jia Shu to prepare to attack! Target the opposite Zhou Gong Army! ”

"The commander of the royal department has an order, ordering Zhang Ji, Cao Wu, Qin Yu, and Jia Shu to prepare to attack! Target the opposite Zhou Gong Army! ”

The herald quickly conveyed Wang Qing's order to the ears of the four generals Zhang Ji, Cao Wu, Qin Yu, and Jia Shu.

Hearing this order, the three generals Cao Wu, Qin Yu, and Jia Shu sighed secretly.

Once again, they had to be the enemy of the righteous teachers again, and raised their weapons against the former like-minded volunteers.

They only hoped that the Zhou Gong army on the opposite side could discern the situation and surrender to them as soon as possible, so as not to resist stubbornly.

"Attack!!"

"Oh-"

With Wang Qing's order, more than 12,000 Yingchuan soldiers rushed forward together.

Seeing this, Zhou Gong on the opposite side took a deep breath, stood in front of the battle and said loudly to boost morale: "The Yingchuan army on the opposite side is equal in number to us, and our army may not be invincible. If we can defeat this Jin army, we can prevent the Jin army from continuing to pursue our army, and ask you to fight bravely to kill the enemy for the sake of my righteousness! …… Kill! ”

"Kill!"

More than 10,000 Jiangxia righteous soldiers shouted in unison, and under the personal leadership of Zhou Gong, they met the Yingchuan army led by Wang Qing head-on.

Two armies of more than 10,000 people, like two rushing torrents, collided together with a loud bang like an explosion.

For a moment, the sounds of fighting, shouting, and screaming seemed to drown out the rest of the voices on the battlefield.

At the same time, more than 6,000 Liangcheng troops led by Wang Xun and Zhang Qi quickly attacked the 40,000 Yuzhang righteous divisions and joined Dong Dian and Zhong Liao.

"General Dong, Captain Zhou ordered me to come and help the two of you!"

From afar, Wang Xun shouted towards Dong Dian.

Dong Dian didn't think about it as much as Wang Qing thought about, he and Zhong Liao were in short of help, and the arrival of more than 6,000 Liangcheng foot soldiers helped them a lot.

Immediately, Dong Dian shouted happily: "Okay! …… Wang Shishi, when I lead the cavalry to break through the enemy's army, you immediately lead the army to kill it, you and I will break it inside! ”

"Good!" Wang Xun shouted in response.

I have to say that although the second generals Dong Dian and Zhong Liao have killed the blocking army led by Zhu Yi and Zhong Yi more than once before, the shortcomings of the cavalry that 'once they lose their mobility, they will be surrounded and killed by foot soldiers' made Dong Dian and Zhong Liao unable to completely defeat the two generals Zhu Yi and Zhong Yi.

But this time, the situation has changed, after Dong Dian and Zhong Liao once again disrupted Zhu Yuanjun and Zhong Yijun, Wang Xun and Zhang Qi quickly led the foot soldiers to kill, and the power of this step and horse linkage was not at all something that the simple foot soldiers under the command of Zhu Yuan and Zhong Yi could resist.

I saw that the army under the command of Zhu Yu and Zhong Yi was quickly defeated by the Liangcheng army.

"It's over."

Seeing that he couldn't resist, Zhu Yan sighed and immediately led the remnants of the army to evacuate.

It's not that he wants to leave behind Yuzhang Yishi, he just can't do anything.

On the other hand, Zhong Yi also made the same move, leading the defeated army to quickly withdraw from the battlefield and defect to the Jiangdong Yishi a few miles away.

Dong Dian and Zhong Liao actually noticed the actions of Zhu Yu and Zhong Yi, but they didn't care about it, because what was presented to them at this moment was a full 40,000 Yuzhang righteous masters who had almost fallen into complete chaos, and everyone knew that they had to pick up large pieces of meat.

"Rendezvous with the General!"

"Help the general!"

The second generals Dong Dian and Zhong Liao and the cavalry under their command shouted slogans loudly and quickly killed towards Xue Ao's location.

Behind them were more than 6,000 Liangcheng army foot soldiers.

Don't look at the strength of the Liangcheng army, but considering that their opponent is an army that has fallen into chaos, these 6,000 Liangcheng soldiers really exerted their strength far beyond usual, and when they followed the Taiyuan cavalry, they killed Yuzhang Yishi and retreated.

"Report! Zhu Yuan's army was defeated! ”

"Report! Zhong Yijun was defeated! ”

"Report! The enemy general Dong Dian is attacking our army! ”

"Report! Enemy Zhong Liao is attacking our army! ”

"Report! There are thousands of Liangcheng troops attacking our army! ”

The endless bad news, like the snow falling in winter, was continuously sent to Cheng Zhou, the righteous teacher of Yuzhang.

However, Cheng Zhou was helpless.

At this time, almost all of the generals under his command were killed by Xue Ao, so that his orders could not be smoothly conveyed to the generals at the level of Qu General and the level of 100 generals, nor could he prevent an effective counterattack.

"Crossbowmen, send crossbowmen to deal with those cavalry!"

"No, the crossbowmen can't catch up with those cavalry, and they will accidentally injure our soldiers......"

"So far, I don't care if I'm injured by mistake or not, shoot me, shoot! …… What about the crossbowmen?! Damn, what about people? ”

"Can't catch up, crossbowmen can't catch up with ......"

"Shot! Shot! …… Damn it! It doesn't work, these cavalrymen wear more than one layer of armor! ”

"Help! Help me! ”

"Mother......

The hinterland of Yuzhang Yishi is in chaos.

It is undeniable that in fact, the soldiers of Yuzhang Yishi also thought of using bows and crossbows to deal with those Taiyuan cavalry.

But unfortunately, the crossbowmen restrained the cavalry, that is a premise, that is, a large number of crossbowmen are required to form a formation to resist, with dense arrows to block the cavalry's advance, as for this kind of chaotic battlefield where you have me, I have you, the archers first lose their effect, and the crossbowmen's role is minimal, and its lethality, it is better to hold a spear to stab those cavalry down.

What's more, the cavalry likes to pick these crossbowmen at close range, after all, within twenty or thirty paces, as long as the crossbowmen miss a single blow, the cavalry will quickly approach them, and then easily pick them through the spear - the crossbowmen at this distance have almost no life-saving ability in the face of the cavalry.

“……”

Looking at the chaotic soldiers in his field of vision, Cheng Zhou regretted it very much.

Rather than fall to this point, he would rather give up evacuating to the south and fight these damned Taiyuan cavalry, even if his own casualties are exhausted, he will definitely bite off a piece of meat on these cavalry.

But now, he can no longer do anything, he can only watch as nearly 5,000 Taiyuan cavalry and more than 6,000 Liangcheng troops are slaughtering back and forth in the hinterland of the army under his command.

"Cheng Shuai!"

Suddenly, the guards beside Chen Miao found Cheng Zhou, clasped his fists and said urgently: "Cheng Shuai, Chen Shuai ordered me to remind you, if you continue like this, your army will be wiped out, rather than this, it is better for a strong man to break his wrist ......"

Before he finished his words, he heard the guards beside Cheng Zhou exclaim: "Qu Shuai! Qu Shuai! Then Xue Ao is here! ”

"What?"

Cheng Zhou's face was shocked, and he subconsciously turned his head to look, and sure enough, he saw Xue Ao leading the cavalry towards him.

Thinking of Xue Ao's terrifying force, Cheng Zhou was horrified and hurriedly evacuated with his guards.

After just a few dozen breaths, Xue Ao led the cavalry to kill and killed the standard-bearers holding several flags such as 'Yuzhang Yishi' and 'Cheng' to the ground.

"Tsk, did you escape? The state of the rats. ”

Standing on a horse, Xue Ao looked around, looking for the trace of Yuzhang Yishi Qu Shuai Cheng Zhou.

Behind him, the flagpole with the banner of 'Yuzhang Yishi' slammed to the ground, and the flag fell to the ground, trampled by a cadre of cavalry.

"Someone, send an order to Zhou Hu, tell him to defeat the rebels' broken army as soon as possible and join me!"

"Obey!"
