Chapter 720: The Battle of Jingnan 21
Besides, several routed soldiers in the front of the Jingnan Army's baggage convoy escaped from the battlefield at the foot of the southern foot of Yuanqiu, and they seemed to be dead, and rushed all the way to the foot of Yuannan City.
The guards of Yuannan City, after some investigation, took these defeated soldiers and went to report to Quan Cong, Ding Feng, and He Qi.
Quan Cong, Ding Feng, and He Qi were already shocked when they heard that the Jingnan Army's baggage convoy was looted by a group of unknown people.
When you hear ...... Wu Jing, the uncle of his father-in-law, was in the midst of an unknown life and death, Quan Cong, Ding Feng, and He Qi were already shocked, and they were panicked and at a loss for a moment.
The baggage convoy was looted, and it can be said that even if the three of them were punished, it would never be a major crime.
At the moment, Wu Jing's life and death are unknown, which is already a blessing in misfortune, and he can still pray boldly.
If Wu Jing was captured or died in this battle, then the three of them ...... It's really not far from death.
After all, Wu Jing had an accident in the jurisdiction of the three of them. When the time comes, when you ask about the sin, you can't tell what you have.
The three of Quan Cong didn't dare to hesitate at all, and immediately racked their brains to discuss it.
In the end, the result is ...... Quan Cong, who was inferior in force, with a thousand men, stayed in Yuannan City; Ding Feng and He Qi, with 2,000 soldiers, went to the direction of Yuanqiu and galloped to help Wu Jing.
The result of such a decision is ...... The north and south gates of Yuannan City, each with one hundred and fifty guards; There were two gates in the east and west of Yuannan City, and there were three hundred and fifty people left in each.
The reason why there are so few guards at the north and south gates of Yuannan City is because of ......
Beyond the north gate is the hinterland of Wuling County, so you don't have to worry about enemy attacks; Twenty miles away from the south gate, there are hills and swamps, and there will be no enemy sneak attack.
……
Just when Ding Feng and He Qi took two thousand soldiers of the Jingnan Army and rushed all the way to the Yuanqiu battlefield.
Li Mu and Gan Ling, with four thousand Vermilion Bird cavalry, had already rushed to Yuan'anling, and had already laid an ambush, waiting for the rescuers from Yuannan City to come and die.
Yuan'an Mausoleum, forty miles east of Yuannan City, is a series of relatively low hills.
Yuan'an Mausoleum is east-west and is formed by a series of small hills, and the hilly terrain is relatively gentle. Between the many small hills, there is a rather spacious valley road.
This valley road is naturally the official road of the Jingnan Army.
Yuan'an Mausoleum is the place where Fu Yan, Zhao Feng, and the six thousand Vermilion Bird cavalry soldiers set up ambushes.
At this time......
The 4,000 cavalry of Li Mu and Gan Ling were ambushed at the east exit of Yuan'an Linggu Road.
Fu Yan led 3,000 cavalry and ambushed on the hillside to the left of the western entrance of the valley road.
Zhao Feng led 3,000 cavalry and set up an ambush on the hillside on the right side of the middle section of the valley road.
The three-way ambush soldiers, 10,000 Vermilion Bird cavalry soldiers, like a fierce beast in ambush and hunting, hide without making a trace of movement, and the patience is even more full.
After nearly half an hour of waiting, whether it was Li Mu, Fu Yan, Zhao Feng, Gan Ling, or the Vermilion Bird Cavalry, they all looked leisurely and leisurely, without the slightest impatience!
In fact, all the soldiers of the Liangzhou Army have long been accustomed to hiding for a long time like this.
What's more, the soldiers of the Liangzhou Army have been hiding for a longer time than today's waiting time in their ordinary training.
In less than half an hour, the sound of noisy marching came from the west side of Yuan'an Linggu Road, and it became clearer and clearer.
At this time, Ding Feng and He Qi, who had long been anxious, could not care about sending soldiers to the hillside to investigate, they only wanted to rush to the front line of Yuanqiu as soon as possible.
Ding Feng led the troops in front, and He Qi led the team in the back, urging the soldiers to move forward quickly.
Just when the entire team of the Jingnan Army had just marched to the middle of the Yuan'an Linggu Road.
Like thunder, the heart-pounding sound of horses' hooves began to resound rhythmically, and the sound became louder and more terrifying. Zero Long Literature Network
Immediately afterwards, the ground in the Yuan'an Ling Valley began to tremble, this must be ...... This is the case only when the iron cavalry of the brigade charges.
The echo of horses' hooves was clearly audible, shuttling back and forth, like a blunt knife, breathing at the hearts of the soldiers of the Jingnan Army.
"The enemy attacked ......"
"There were cavalry ...... on the hillside"
Finally, scattered and startled roars sounded in the ranks of the Jingnan Army.
"The enemy has attacked...... The enemy attacked ......"
"On the left side of the hill...... There are enemy cavalry ......"
"The cavalry of the enemy army...... On the right side of the hill ......"
"Guys...... Run for your life...... ......
Immediately afterwards, before He Qi could stop it, there were panicked howls in the ranks of the Jingnan Army.
The situation of the cavalry of the Liangzhou army charging into battle, He Qi naturally saw it.
Just a glance, He Qi was almost scared to death.
I saw that on the slopes on both sides of the Yuan'an Ling Valley Road, there were cavalry dressed in red armor and black clothes all over the mountains.
"Array to meet the enemy...... The shield soldier went up to ......"
"Dare to leave the army without permission...... Those who run away without permission will be killed immediately! ”
Although He Qi was very frightened and panicked, he was a general in the end, so he hurriedly pulled out the sword at his waist, waved it, and shouted hoarsely, wanting to stop the scattered and frightened fleeing of the Jingnan army.
He Qi's general order, hidden in the panic, still worked, but only played a small role.
In the Jingnan army, except for a small number of soldiers, they lined up to meet the enemy; The vast majority of the remaining soldiers either fled in the direction of the front team, or ran wildly in the direction of the rear team.
The Suzaku cavalry formation, like every previous assault, threw two rounds of javelins before charging into formation.
In the heart-rending and miserable roar of the soldiers of the Jingnan Army, who cried and howled......
The Suzaku cavalry formation, from the slopes on both sides of the Yuan'an Ling Valley Road, rushed down all the way with the thunderous momentum of a fierce tiger descending the mountain and a hungry tiger pounced.
Quiet as a virgin, moving as a rabbit!
Overwhelming!
A roar shakes a thousand mountains!
The Jingnan Army was already disorganized, and it was an extremely weak defensive formation, and with just one charge of the Suzaku Cavalry, it was already scattered and falling apart!
The Suzaku cavalry formation on the slopes on both sides only needed one charge to make the Jingnan army vulnerable...... Cut into dozens of pieces.
"The generals do not know the soldiers, and the soldiers do not know the generals" - this is the true portrayal of the middle and rear of the Jingnan Army.
The middle and rear teams of the Jingnan Army were scattered and fled, and they couldn't even do the most basic battles on their own.
Among the soldiers of the Jingnan Army, those who escaped quickly were still scurrying with their heads in their arms; Those who had already been frightened had to fall to their knees, wailing and begging for mercy.
Seeing that the defeat was decided, He Qi immediately gave up his resistance and beat his war horse desperately, trying to escape from the valley mouth on the west side.
He Qi is running wildly!
The valley mouth on the west side of Yuan'anling Valley Road seemed to beckon to him......
