At this critical juncture, suddenly a rider flew from the oblique spur, and the man on the horse shouted: "Stop hurting my lord." ”

The person who came was tall and had long arms, leaned over and raised a knife to hold Chen Hui's volley, the two knives collided, and there was a bang, sparks splashed, and Chen Hui's arm was sore, and the horse that sat down was also forced by the force of the shock to kick back a few steps before standing up.

Zhu Di opened his eyes and saw that the person who came was Ma Sanbao, the eunuch of the palace, he was a Daoyan apprentice with high martial arts, so Zhu Di had to take him with him every time he went on an expedition, one to take care of food and daily life, and the other to personally guard. After Zhu Di saw Ma Sanbao, he was overjoyed and said: "Sanbao, he is the enemy's main general, quickly kill this fang for me." ”

Nama Sanbao nodded and agreed: "Obey." Then he urged the horse to step forward, and slashed at Chen Hui a few times, the knife was strong and heavy, Chen Hui couldn't resist it, and fled.

Ma Sanbao didn't chase after him, jumped off the horse, helped Zhu Di onto the horse and said, "His Royal Highness King Yan, I will protect you to fight your way out of the encirclement." ”

Zhu Di shouted: "Don't worry about me, it's important to kill the enemy army first." ”

Ma Sanbao held the reins of the war horse with one hand and a knife in the other, and fought with the southern army that rushed up.

At this time, Zhu Gaoxu led the army to come to support, Zhang Yu led the army to arrive, and the two outflanked him, Chen Hui gradually lost his support, so he had to lead the army to fight and retreat, and slowly retreated to the bank of the Chaobai River. At this time, the front army retreated, the rear army poured up, the two armies crowded on the ice, it was noon, the sun was shining, the ice was not frozen strong enough, these many people were crowded on it, could not bear the weight, the ice suddenly collapsed, the soldiers of the southern army fell into the river, up and down, crying and struggling, screaming and screaming.

In a panic, Chen waved his horse's hooves and slipped and fell into the river, the river was cold and biting, Chen waved his hands and danced wildly, desperately trying to grab something, so that he could climb ashore, never thought that the stirrups covered his feet, so that he could not get out, the cold river water poured into his mouth and nose, Chen waved his hands and scattered, and gradually submerged into the water.

Li Jinglong saw a great chaos behind the Yan army in the camp, and knew that Chen Hui had succeeded in the sneak attack, so he hurriedly ordered someone to open the camp gate, and personally led the troops to rush out, wanting to attack back and forth and defeat the Yan army.

Who knew that the cavalry of Duoyan Sanwei was ambushed on both flanks, and was about to take revenge with an arrow, when they saw Li Jinglong leading the army to attack, they immediately rushed over like a whirlwind. Li Jinglong's cavalry has been taken away by Chen Hui, at this moment most of the army is infantry, out of the camp, and unobstructed, seeing the Mongolian cavalry rushing forward, had to put some arrows indiscriminately, and retreated to the camp to hold on, and those who ran slowly were killed on the spot like chopping melons and vegetables, and the corpses were everywhere on the battlefield, and thousands of people were lost.

At the moment when Li Jinglong led the army to attack, the east and west camps were broken by Zhu Neng and Chen Heng respectively, only the camp of the Chinese army was still there, Li Jinglong's army was surrounded by the Yan army on three sides, and the news that Chen Hui was drowned in the Chaobai River made him even more depressed.

Fortunately, it was getting late, and the two sides were a little exhausted from the whole day, and they all wanted to rest for one night and fight again in the future.

At this time, it is the fifth day of the first month of November, and this year's winter cold came too early, and the snow on the ground has not melted.

In the Yan military camp, the soldiers lit bonfires to bake and keep warm. The battalion did not have so much firewood for a while, and some soldiers had to stomp their feet and rub their hands to ward off the cold.

The commander made Huo Zhen pick up a few broken saddles, lit a fire, and warmed Zhu Di, the king of Yan. Ma Sanbao found a fox fur and draped it on his body, and Zhu Di felt warmer on his body.

At this time, a few soldiers saw that the bonfire was very strong, so they came over and wanted to warm the fire.

In order to protect the safety of King Yan, Ma Sanbao pulled out his waist knife with a swipe and shouted: "Your Highness is here, and those who come close will die." ”

The soldiers hurriedly retreated, but refused to go far, and looked pathetically this way.

Zhu Di shouted: "Sanbao, these are all strong men, don't stop listening to it." Hunger and cold, the most unbearable, I hold Qiu Shang still feel cold, and he only wears cotton armor? Today's war, thanks to them, this generation is my brother, and I am patient? ”

Ma Sanbao beckoned the soldiers to come over and roast the fire together. These people were grateful, and they knelt down to kowtow to King Yan. King Yan got up, helped them up, and sighed: "This king is in trouble with heaven, and so are the kings who rely on it." As long as we wait for the whole heart, the world can be determined. ”

Tears welled up in everyone's eyes, and they arched their hands and said, "I am willing to serve death." ”

Zhu Di turned back to Ma Sanbao and said: "Sanbao, what do you say about this battle of Jingjing, what kind of time, location, and people occupy me?" ”

Ma Sanbao scratched his head and smiled unembarrassedly: "The villain is stupid, please give your Highness advice." ”

Zhu Di folded his fingers and counted for him: "When the sky is shining, he is the king, I am the minister, and the following offenses are hastily raised, and I don't occupy the time of the sky." The location is advantageous, I resist a country with a corner, and I do not occupy a profit. Harmony, my soldiers are of the same heart, like an arm and a finger, his king is weak and secret, and he is suspicious of the top and bottom, and I only occupy one person. But with just this one person, I can kill Jingshi, Qingjun's side, except for the villain, Sanbao, do you believe it or not? ”

Ma Sanbao nodded firmly and said, "His Royal Highness King Yan, I believe you." ”

Zhu Di happily patted him on the shoulder and said: "You saved my life today, here is Zheng Cunba, and we have taken up a personal harmony, in order to remember this matter forever, I give you the surname Zheng, a single name and a word." ”

Ma Sanbao knelt down and thanked him, and after getting up, he chewed these two words repeatedly: "Zheng He, Zheng He." ”

Huo Zhen, who was roasting the fire on the side, said with a smile: "Zheng He, Zheng He, this name is good, much better than that Ma Sanbao's return name." ”

Zheng He listened and glared at him fiercely.

————————

Li Jinglong lit two braziers in the big tent and it was so cold that he couldn't sleep, and it was the second watch, when he called Gao Wei, the counselor of military affairs, to come and discuss countermeasures.

Li Jinglong said: "Mr. Gao, how do you think you will fight with the Yan army tomorrow?" ”

Gao Wei pondered for a while and said: "Chen Dudu is dead, morale is low, our army is difficult to support alone, we must transfer Guo Hou's men and horses to come, and fight with the Yan army to save the situation." ”

Li Jinglong shook his head and said: "Guo Hou has always been afraid of war, and if Guo Jun is transferred to come, the Yan army in Beiping City will be killed, and our army will inevitably be defeated." ”

Gao Wei said: "There are many suspicious soldiers outside the city, so that the Yan army does not dare to go out of the city, and then make plans after separating the victory and defeat with the Yan army here." ”33

Li Jinglong said: "I thought what Guo Hou said a few days ago was feasible, our army can temporarily retreat to Texas, really recuperate, and when the spring flowers bloom in the next year, it is not too late to march again." ”

Gao Wei was shocked and said, "General, this matter must not be allowed. Withdrawing in front of the enemy is a taboo for soldiers, and besides, most of our troops are infantry, and most of the enemy troops are cavalry. ”

Li Jinglong said coldly: "I have long figured out this section, our army will withdraw tonight, and after the Tianming Yan army finds out, our army is already a hundred miles away, if it dares to pursue, our army will be able to defeat them according to the danger." ”

Gao Wei said: "Guo Hou also informed them to retreat together?" ”

Li Jinglong shook his head and said, "No, I'll send someone to inform them to retreat at dawn." ”

Gao Wei's eyes glared at the avenue: "Isn't Guo Hou's place dangerous?" ”

Li Jinglong sighed and said: "In the major affairs of the military state, someone must sacrifice. Needless to say, you immediately ordered the whole army to pull out the camp and raise the camp, not to make a sound, and to retreat lightly, regardless of the baggage. ”

Gao Wei had no choice but to obey the order and go out of the account to pass the order.

At dawn, Zhu Di, the king of Yan, led the generals into the empty southern army camp, looking at the discarded trebuchets, bed crossbows and other large equipment, as well as the wounded soldiers moaning on the ground, and the towering barns, Zhu Di said to Zhang Yu with a puzzled face: "Li Jiujiang just escaped?" ”

Zhang Yu nodded vigorously and said: "Exactly, the lowly duty has sent scouts to investigate everywhere, and there is no trace of the southern army within a radius of 100 miles." ”

Zhu Di smiled: "Li Jiujiang, this rabbit cub, runs fast. ”

Zhu Neng said: "His Royal Highness King Yan, if you are willing to lead a light horse to chase him, you will definitely be able to kill him without leaving a piece of armor." ”

Zhu Di said: "Vested Long, look back at Shuhu? I thought there would be a bad battle in Zhengcunba, but that kid escaped quickly, and saved me a lot of trouble. Now we are going westward and first relieving the siege of Beiping. ”

The crowd bowed their hands and said, "Yes." ”

——————————

After Zhang Shixing woke up in the big tent, he had finished washing, had breakfast, and rode out of the camp to Pingzemen to investigate outside the city wall to see if the ice outside the city wall had melted.

Sure enough, it was not as he wished, and the ice wall still reflected a dazzling light, as if mocking him, yes, the weather was as cold as a day, and I am afraid that it would not melt until next spring.

Zhang Shixing returned to the camp dejectedly, and just walked to the camp gate, the southern army galloped to the front on a flying horse and shouted to him: "Commander Zhang, Guo Hou ordered you to retreat immediately." ”

Zhang Shixing was stunned when he heard this, afraid that he had heard it wrong, and asked rhetorically: "Why does Guo Hou want our army to retreat?" Where to evacuate? ”

The cavalryman did not answer, whipped his horse, and flew away.

Zhang Shixing hurriedly returned to the camp and found Niu Er to discuss countermeasures.

Niu Er heard this, pondered for a moment and said: "I heard that yesterday the Yan army arrived at Zhengcunba and fought with Cao Guogong, and I don't know what the outcome is, today Guo Hou ordered us to retreat, I am afraid that Cao Guogong will be defeated." ”

Zhang Shixing asked, "Then where should our army retreat?" ”

Niu Er said: "It stands to reason that our army should withdraw to Dezhou with Cao Guogong to the north, but Dezhou is far away, and he has not been ordered by his generals, so he cannot act without authorization." Today, since Guo Hou ordered our army to retreat, we should retreat to Zhending, and Zhending is near. ”

Zhang Shixing said: "Okay, you immediately order the whole army to retreat, take what should be taken, and throw away what should not be taken, and make a big golden drum, thinking that it is a suspicious soldier, otherwise the enemy will chase after you and there is a risk of destruction." ”

Niu Er obeyed the order and went down to prepare.

Before waiting for the Xiaoling guards to retreat, they suddenly heard the cannon on the Pingze Gate, the city gate was wide open, and a team of men and horses rushed out of the city, and the person headed by Zhang Xin was Zhang Xin.

Zhang Xinlai came to the front of the camp and shouted inside: "Please Commander Zhang come out and speak." ”

Zhang Shixing came to the door, through the fence, and said to Zhang Xin: "I don't share the sky with you, what else do you have to say?" ”

Zhang Xin said with a smile: "Brother Zhang, you saved my life that day, and I will return your favor today." His Royal Highness King Yan defeated Li Jiujiang in Zhengcunba, and has now led the army to save Beiping, and is fighting with Guo Ying outside the main gate of Li, Guo Ying can't resist and has fled. You are alone, don't surrender quickly, I will say a few kind words for you in front of King Yan, and you can still save your life, maybe you can fight for a wife and a son, isn't it beautiful? ”

Zhang Shixing's heart tightened when he heard this, if Guo Ying escaped, he would be able to resist the enemy with his own men, and it seemed that he was going to sacrifice his life for the country today.

He turned his heart and said: "Do you a big dream in the spring and autumn, Lao Tzu will not die or fall." Then he gave the order to release the arrows.

Zhang Xin hurriedly beat his horse and retreated, and ordered his subordinate Yan troops to return fire.

When the two armies were fighting, the dust rose in the southeast corner, and a group of men and horses rushed over, led by a general in black robe and Xuanjia, like an iron tower, it was Zhang Yu, the governor of the Chinese army.

When Zhang Shixing saw it, his whole body was cold, and he said in his heart: "I'm afraid I'm going to die here today." ”
