Fang Jie, who was under siege, fought hard, but the people he brought were already beaten and collapsed.

A large number of infantry soldiers were encircling and suppressing his men, and the officers and cavalry were speeding forward in formation towards the place where Fang La was.

Fang Jie knew very well that because he divided his troops to chase and kill the officers and soldiers, he divided his troops to attack Hangzhou City. There were not many soldiers and horses left around Fang La.

Once those cavalry were killed, Fang La would be in a huge crisis.

The Great Song Dynasty lacked horses, the south was more lacking than the north, and the rebellious Fang La was more lacking than the imperial court.

Liangshan can still get hundreds of cavalry, and Fang La is estimated to be in his early 100s.

Before the arrival of the Western Army, they had not seen the power of thousands of cavalry raids.

Fang Jie roared angrily, trying to rush past to block those cavalry.

But the group of tin cans around him blocked him and couldn't move. In the past, the devastating Fang Tian Painting Halberd slashed at the heavy armor, and in addition to pulling out the sparks, it was only to knock it back a few steps.

"How so!?"

Fang Jie said he couldn't understand. Why was this officer army in front of him so different from the ones he had seen before!

The Xiang army in many places in Jiangnan didn't even have clothes to wear, why did everyone in this official army in front of them wear heavy armor?

When the officers and soldiers in Jiangnan saw them, they were directly frightened and fled without a fight. But why did the officers and troops in front of them fight to the death and did not retreat, and when one was defeated, two of them immediately made up for it?

If they had known that the official army was so brave and elite, then what kind of rebellion would their Fang family make. Honestly cut the lacquer tree.

Fang Jie, who was out of breath, suddenly saw the heavy armor soldiers around him retreat in unison, making way for space.

In the midst of his doubts, he saw a team of crossbowmen approaching, and dozens of strong crossbows pointed at him in unison.

Fang Jie smiled miserably and slammed Fang Tian's halberd on the ground.

took a deep breath and shouted loudly, "I am the number one fierce general in Jiangnan, and Fang Jie is also!" ”

'Bang Bang~~~'

Wang Xiao on horseback didn't know that Fang Jie, the number one general in Jiangnan, had been shot into a hedgehog. I don't care if I know.

At this moment, he was personally leading more than a thousand cavalry to the location of Fang La, which had been identified by the horses before.

Shoot the man first and shoot the horse, and capture the thief first and capture the king.

He had been waiting before, waiting for a blow against Fang La.

Fang La was leading his own troops to Hangzhou City at this moment, and what he was thinking about was how to deal with the invasion of other imperial court soldiers and horses next.

"Huh? Why is it so noisy? ”

Fang La, who was in deep thought, felt that the ground around him trembled slightly, and the noise around him gradually became louder.

"Holy Father, go!!"

Du Wei, who was not far away, pounced and ran away with the reins of his horse.

Fang La was shocked, "What's the matter?!" ”

Without waiting for Du Wei to speak, Fang La, who was on horseback, saw a huge cavalry group holding torches rushing towards him with a roar from one side of the field.

The cold armor was full of iron and blood in the light of the fire.

Fang Lazhi felt cold in his hands and feet, and a cold air rushed from the soles of his feet to the top of his head.

He knew that he couldn't have so many cavalry under his command, so it could only be the officer's army.

But why did the official army have such a strong armored cavalry here, and it could accurately launch a surprise attack when it was the weakest around him?

Fang La's mind was in a state of confusion, and he couldn't understand what was going on at all.

How many years of war Wang Xiao has fought, and how rich his battlefield experience is.

Although others are in the barracks, the elite scouts under his command have long been scattered, and the situation outside the camp is under control.

In this chaotic environment, there is no better choice than to directly capture the thief and capture the king first.

Although Fang La still had thousands of guards around him, these people were all foot soldiers, and they were still in a state of marching.

In the dark and chaotic environment, Richland was only a blink of an eye for the cavalry group that began to speed up the charge.

"Where is Song Gongming?"

Fang La's soul was frightened, and he subconsciously wanted to find a way for Song Jiang, who was outstandingly resourceful.

Du Wei shouted angrily: "That bastard ran away when he saw the cavalry!" ”

More than a thousand cavalry formed a triangle and rushed directly into the ranks of foot soldiers who were on the march and fell into great confusion.

One charge down, and the foot soldiers were scattered.

The cavalry on horseback slashed with spears and bayonets, and smashed with axes and hammers. In an instant, the resistance around Fang La's side was crushed.

"Du Wei!!"

Fang La watched Du Wei, who went to clear the way for himself, being stabbed down by a shot, and couldn't help but shed tears.

He was surrounded by silent cavalrymen with torches in their hands.

The blazing flames illuminated countless swords and guns.

Fang La knew that he was finished, and all the emperor's hegemony was in vain. The only thing that awaits you is death.

He couldn't figure it out even if he broke his head, obviously he had won a big victory a moment ago and was about to enter Hangzhou City. Why is it that in the blink of an eye, he is already in a desperate situation.

The cavalry dispersed, revealing a gap.

A general of the official army riding in full armor slowly rode forward.

Fang La gritted his teeth and shouted angrily, "Who is coming?!" ”

Laijiang raised his hand and pushed up his visor, looking at him calmly.

"Shijiazhuang Zhao Zilong is also."

Under the chaotic night, countless people were shouting that they had taken Fang La.

The fleeing Western army was stunned, and the chasing Fang La army was also dumbfounded.

After everyone saw that Fang La's banner had indeed fallen, the situation on the battlefield suddenly changed.

More than 10,000 horses and horses poured out of the right wing of the Japanese army, with thousands of people as a team, scattered to chase and kill and exterminate the chaotic Fangla army.

If there is a real frontal battle, the Fang La army can also regain its strength.

But at present, in such a situation where the whole army is scattered, it is simply impossible to regroup. It can only be wiped out one by one.

Wang Yu and others also took the opportunity to leave the camp and led their men and horses around to collect the Western Army's rout.

The chaos of the night did not end until the sky was shining and the warm sun was shining on the earth.

Originally, through the night attack, the Fang La army, which was almost completely victorious, was killed by Wang Xiao at the last moment.

Died in the melee, and tens of thousands of Fang La's troops were captured in a panic.

The Western Army is not comfortable on its side either.

Wang Yu's subordinates tried their best to gather, and by dawn they had only gathered thousands of people.

Even if there are still routs hiding everywhere that can be gathered, it is estimated that there are less than 10,000 people.

You must know that they had more than 20,000 soldiers and horses before, and they lost more than half of this battle.

The real victory was Commander Wang Xiao's right flank of the Japanese army.

They not only captured the bandit leader Fang La, but also beheaded Fang Jie, Du Wei, Li Tianyan and others. They also killed and captured more than 40,000 people.

The main force of Fang La's army was defeated by Wang Xiao in the first battle.

After dawn, Shi Bao Deng Yuanjue and others, who had previously entered Hangzhou City, learned of the rout outside the city, and even Fang La was arrested, so they hurriedly retreated and fled.

Wang Xiao did not pursue them.

In addition to the fact that his soldiers and horses also suffered a lot of losses, he didn't want to take all the credit.

On the one hand, he offended the Western Army, and on the other hand, he exposed himself to the court prematurely.

The Song Dynasty was heavy on literature and suppressed martial arts. In this era of mixed army, we must keep this sentence in mind.

Even Di Wuxiang had a dismal end, let alone others.

Now the eyes of the imperial court are focused on the powerful Western Army, trying every means to suppress and split.

What Wang Xiao wants to do is to develop in a low-key manner, instead of jumping out and letting people point the finger at him before his strength is complete.

In Wang Xiao's plan, if he really has the strength to fight with the Great Song Dynasty, it will be after the capture of the Sixteen Prefectures of Yanyun.

The Western Army is concerned with China as the basic plate, and Wang Xiao has nothing now.

Looking around the Great Song Dynasty, the only ones who could make Wang Xiao attack during this time period were the sixteen states of Yanyun.

It has a well-developed economy and a large population. Although they are mainly Han Chinese, they have no sense of identity with Zhao and Song. This is the basic plate that Wang Xiao needs most.

This time, the Japanese army could finally enter the city of Hangzhou justifiably.

The city of Hangzhou was in a depression. The people were hiding in their homes and were afraid to go out.

The streets were littered with corpses, and many houses were still on fire.

Copper money, grain and grass, banners and ordnance were thrown all over the ground.

The soldiers of the Western Army who entered the city scattered around to pick up goods, and even started to abuse them because of looting.

On the other hand, Wang Xiao's department, the queue was strict during the march, and there was no noise. Even if someone went to see the goods on the ground, no one went out to pick them up.

Such an intuitive comparison between the two sides makes a judgment.

Wang Yu's face was pale, and he ordered the generals to restrain the soldiers and horses, and even used swords and guns to reluctantly put things in order.

Even so, there are still many people who scold and scold, saying that they are not allowed to pick up money if they have it.

The Western Army also ate empty salaries and deducted the same food and salary treatment. Therefore, the daily supervision of military discipline is relatively lax, and most of them turn a blind eye.

After all, they deserve it.

But Wang Xiao is different here.

All the treatment is distributed in 10%, and whoever dares not to abide by military discipline will not hesitate to do so.

The root cause of the Song army's low combat effectiveness was not at the bottom, but at the top.

When he came to the Liangzhe Road Governor's Office, Wang Xiao invited Wang Yu and others to enter to discuss important matters.

"Ladies and gentlemen." Wang Xiao stood on the main seat unyieldingly, "Last night, we worked together to break the attacking thief army. The head of the thief was captured alive, and the false Holy Father Fang La. This is an unprecedented victory. However, both inside and outside the city suffered from military disasters, and it was supposed to open warehouses and release grain to help the people. ”

Wang Xiao exonerated the generals of the Western Army who had been lax and careless, which led to the rout of the whole army, and even the city of Hangzhou was taken away.

It became a joint battle between the two armies against the Fang La army, and won a great victory.

A simple change in rhetoric turned out to be very different.

If Wang Xiao plays according to the actual situation, then all the generals below Wang Yu will be unlucky.

Not to mention the seizure of office, there may even be people who want to lose their heads.

Zhao Song killed military generals, that is, he would never be merciful.

can be played according to Wang Xiao's statement, Wang Yu and they are not guilty, but they can share the credit.

Wang Yu and the others all looked at Wang Xiao in surprise, no one expected that Wang Xiao would take the initiative to give up the credit.

This is not just a concession, this is to save their lives.

A moment later, all the generals of the Western Army stood up and saluted Wang Xiao.

"Thank you, Lord Vice-Chengzhi!"

Wang Xiao smiled kindly, "We fought to the death for Hangzhou City, and there were many casualties among the soldiers." The businessmen and wealthy families in the city should always have something to say. ”

The generals of the Western Army nodded again and again, indicating that what the Deputy Chengzhi said was right.

"In that case, how about you go and ask the wealthy merchants in the city to help you with food and money?"
