Chapter 658: Hezhou is lost

At this moment, a team of Fan soldiers chased dozens of Song soldiers and killed them, and the strong crossbow volunteers did not wait to greet them, but stepped forward to shoot wildly, the offensive of the Fan soldiers was blocked, and the Song army finally disengaged from the Fan army and retreated.

This is almost the case everywhere, and by the time He Zun retreated to the east of the city with the Song army, Guo Long had already organized sergeants, dismantled houses, blocked the streets, and set up temporary positions.

A hundred paces ahead of the position, a lot of fires were lit.

Crossbows, bows and arrows, and spears have been issued to the sergeants, ready for battle.

He Zun finally pressed the formation and supervised the sergeants to enter the temporary fence, but saw that countless crossbow arrows had been moved out, and many sergeants fired crossbows and arrows behind the fence.

A team of Fan people rushed over and were shot by Guo Long.

A man in the Tibetan people shouted, "Command...... Commander Ho is me......"

He Zun was surprised: "Guo Patrol ...... Isn't it time for you to escort the grain and grass? ”

Guo Long asked He Zun in a low voice: "You know this person very well?" ”

He Zun said: "I don't know it well, the tribal leader over there in the Niujing Valley ......"

Guo Long immediately waved his hand: "Release the arrow!" ”

Guo Koudun was also shrewd, and when he saw Guo Long raise his hand, he suddenly rolled and retreated, jumped into the shadow of the firelight, and escaped the pursuit.

Sure enough, outside the firelight, countless people were killed.

This makes it clear that Guo Waitun is the internal response.

Guo Long sneered: "Covered in blood, the underwear is so clean, who can you deceive?!" ”

Although Guo Long's subordinates were brave and brave, their crossbow skills were exquisite, and the distance of a hundred steps outside the fence was soon filled with the corpses of the Tibetan people.

The Tibetan people began to rush to extinguish the fire and reduce the light, and soon some porcelain bottles were thrown high behind the fence, which fell to the ground and shattered, and then turned into a raging fire, burning the people who tried to put out the fire to the point of crying wolves.

……

Ushisei Valley, Jikeiji Temple.

Seven hundred fast horses galloped all the way down the mountain, and the red clothes of the riders on the horses were like blazing fire.

The whimper of the horn in the temple sounded, and the ambush soldiers in the valley of the cow spirit were everywhere.

In front of him, there was a big silk with a felt angle, and Tian Qiong, the leader of the team, pulled out his riding knife, stood up from the horse's pedal, and put on a charging posture: "Be loyal to the country, only today, kill!" ”

His son Tian Yongji was beside him, and he also pulled out his riding knife: "Kill!" ”

The father and son, together with the 700 cavalry behind them, went to the camp at Ba Felt Point.

……

On a high ground outside the Niujing Valley, Wang Shao and Li Xian were holding binoculars to observe the situation in Jiqing Temple.

Li Xian observed the military map on the sidelines.

Wang Shao looked at it for a while, shook his head and said, "Mu Zheng is still powerful in Hezhou, Zifan, this has planted us." ”

Li Xian studied the map for a while, but he couldn't find a good way to break the situation: "If we lose supplies, then our army can only retreat to Xizhou in a hurry and regroup." ”

Wang Shao slammed it on the ground: "Li Shizhong, Han Jiang, miss my military plane!" ”

Li Xian put away the map: "Su Tanhua said that if you didn't consider being dragged back by civilian officials before sending troops, it is a dereliction of duty on the part of the general." It is about to enter March, and it is not the time for our army to go out and fight for victory. Tian Qiong is dead this time, but he can't let him die in vain, go through it, find a way to bypass Niu Jing Valley, and withdraw. ”

Wang Shao smiled bitterly: "Tian Qiong is a waiter in the inner class, and he has a lot of friendship with you, Zifan is really hard-hearted." ”

Li Xian put the map into a leather cylinder: "Since the first day I entered the palace, this life is not my own, Tian Qiong should have this awareness." This time, if you can bring all the soldiers back to Xizhou, it will be a small loss and a big profit. ”

Wang Shao was a little speechless and a little grateful for Li Xian's lack of oil and salt: "The prison army ...... Thank you for your trust. ”

Li Xian cleaned up: "I don't know what Your Majesty and the privy envoy think, they obviously have powerful weapons...... Alas......"

The two got up and went down the mountain and walked to the horse, Wang Shao suddenly grabbed Li Xian: "That's not right! ”

Li Xian was surprised: "What's wrong?" ”

Wang Shao listened for a while: "Why didn't you hear the sound of tripping thunder?" If Xiangzi City falls, won't the people of Fan get any of those things? ”

Li Xian suddenly came to his senses: "Could it be that Xiangzi City is still in my hands?" ”

Wang Shao turned over and got on his horse: "Go!" Tian Qiong is still saved! ”

……

Seven hundred cavalry, there is not much left.

The fiery battle banner was torn, the shoulder armor was shattered, and a crossbow bolt was stuck in his waist.

His father Tian Qiong had already fallen off his horse halfway, and Tian Yongji knew that he was more than lucky.

Seven hundred cavalry, there are still more than a dozen horsemen left, the weapons of the Fan people are not good, but the horsemanship is excellent, to achieve the tactical goal of the commander to drag the enemy, the only way to achieve the tactical goal of the commander to drag the enemy is to impact the enemy formation and attract the enemy to concentrate on interception.

This is a life-saving task, but Uncle Li is as light as sending his father on an outing.

My father only gave a military salute, and there was no superfluous word.

A man on his side rode up to meet him, almost instinctively, Tian Yongji rode his knife and adjusted an angle slightly.

An arm holding a hidden knife was sliced off by the blade and thrown into the air with ease.

The screams of the Tibetan people were heard behind the horses, and then came to an abrupt end.

Tian Yongji knew that the man was being cooked by his comrades behind him.

The battlefield has become eerie, and some of the five senses seem to become more and more acute, while others have disappeared completely.

For example, the pain is not felt at all, and the sound of hooves and the tremor of the horses running are also very slight.

Between heaven and earth, it seems that only vision remains, and the body seems to have disappeared, only a horse and a knife are moving forward bravely.

My father said that this is what it is like to be a cavalryman, and once you experience this feeling, you will never be able to do without a horse for the rest of your life.

A spear stabbed from the right front.

Tian Yongji lay down with the gun, but his right hand was not fully withdrawn, and he only flipped the blade forward on the side of the horse.

It was a move that the old soldier had taught him, followed by a riding knife that slashed through the neck of the opponent's horse, the bridle, the rider's waist, and finally drew a perfect arc that flashed out from behind the horse.

Then, Tian Yongji got up again, and the opponent fell to the ground with a bang.

Immediately after, with a shock to his shoulder, Tian Yongji knew that he had been hit by another arrow.

The arrow means that the last cavalry intercepted by the enemy has been gouged through, and according to the discipline, it is time to return to the horse, or pass by the enemy's Chinese camp.

But those are all regular tactics, and today, there is no need for them.

Tian Yongji dropped the riding knife, reached out to the horse's buttocks, pulled off the rope on the handle of the earth-shattering thunder behind him one by one, frantically pinched the horse's belly, and rushed towards the Chinese army camp in Ba Felt Corner: "Fan dog!" Suffer death—"

With a huge explosion, the gate of the big camp at Ba Felt Kok collapsed.

Immediately after, the Song army, riding one after another, rushed into the camp, and many sergeants did not dismount at all in order to control the war horses until the last moment, but directly plunged into the most densely populated place of the enemy in the camp.

Tens of thousands of troops were impulsed by the suicide attacks of more than a dozen cavalry Song troops, and the big silk of the felt horn began to move backwards frantically.

Just when the Fan army began to be chaotic, the Song army that was all over the mountains and fields came over.

The banners of Qin Fenglu's generals fluttered in the camp - Miao Zhu, Jing Sili, Wang Junwan, Qin Fenglu Jingluo appeased the envoy, Wang Shao!

The most terrifying banner is bright yellow, with seven big characters written on it, which is written by Zhao Ji himself - "Those who break thieves with their lives will be rewarded." ”

Yellow Flag of the Son of Heaven!

This battle was so dark that Ba Felt Jiao originally only wanted to ambush and pick up cheap, but now it became a tough battle, and in the end it was really unbearable, leaving more than 3,000 corpses behind and withdrawing the army.

Immediately after, Wang Shao re-attacked Xiangzi City, and counterattacked together with Guo Long He Zun, who was firmly guarding the military arsenal in the city, killing more than 5,000 Tubo people besieging Xiangzi City, and recapturing some of the looted materials.

However, no trace of the wood sign was found.

Just when the Song army focused its attention on the surroundings of Xiangzi City, Mu Zheng took the opportunity to lead his troops and recaptured Hezhou City!

Hezhou was lost, Xiangzi City and Jiqing Temple became a lone army to go deep into the end of the end, Wang Shao was worried about falling into the siege of the Muzheng Tribes, "it is to stop the Xiangzi City, break the Jiqing Temple and return."

The first Raiders in River State ended in failure.

Wang Shao, who returned to Xizhou, felt that it was difficult to win Hezhou overnight, so he changed his strategy. Suspend the offensive and continue to recruit the Tibetan tribes around Hezhou.

The situation in Qingtang is at a stalemate.

And Tian Yongji miraculously survived, when the horse crossed the deer, he was thrown into the trench in front of the wall, and when he cleaned up the battlefield after the war, he was dug out of the mud again.

When Li Xian heard this, he finally couldn't pretend anymore, so he rushed to the wounded barracks and hugged him and cried bitterly.

Then he went to the court to ask for merit, and asked Zhao Ji to boost the morale of the Song army.

Zhao Ji approved the request for merit, and gave a reward of "five horses of silk for each first grade".

In March, Ji You, the edict gave the general of the death of Xihe, gave Tian Qiong the protocol envoy, recorded three of his sons and one grandson.

Summoned Tian Yongji back to Beijing, inherited his father's position, and led the newly established Shenji Third Class.
