The situation of Liu Cheng here is not much better than that of Huo Cun and Zhang Chan, he didn't expect that Huo Cun's Xuanwu rebel army would be so strong in combat, if it was other Xuanwu troops, what kind of demeanor would it be?

He is with an army of 30,000 this time, if he can't capture Dizhou, then the image he has built up with great difficulty will collapse.

It is rare for him to be the deputy commander of the capital, so he can only live and not lose this battle.

However, he knew that Cui Anqian still had 5,000 forbidden troops by his side, although he didn't know how effective the forbidden army was, but he had to defeat the combined forces of Dizhou and Qizhou in front of him before the 5,000 forbidden troops arrived.

"Pass on the general's order, concentrate the elite and attack the Qizhou soldiers with all their might." Liu Jun ordered.

Liu Jun's idea was very good, but he underestimated the will of Huo Cun's thousands of troops, and actually withstood the siege of his 12,000 army.

He knew that as long as he worked harder, he would be able to defeat this Qizhou army.

But it's always a little bit worse, just a little bit, the enemy army is still holding on, and Liu Jun, who has no choice, can only find a way to consume this difficult army.

But at this moment, a dull horn sounded from the sky, and a cavalry of thousands appeared in the sky.

In the end, Liu Jun failed to defeat Huo Cun's army before the arrival of the forbidden army, but waited for the forbidden army to come to help.

But this aid is not for him, but for the enemy army in front of him.

The arrival of reinforcements made the morale of the beleaguered Dizhou soldiers and Qizhou soldiers rise sharply, and they began to launch a counterattack.

And seeing the situation on the battlefield, seeing the corpses all over the field, Yang Shihou, who was riding his horse and galloping, waved his spear and ordered, "Capture the thief and capture the king first, and kill the enemy chief with me, kill!" ”

"Kill!"

Although Yang Shihou had less than 2,000 cavalry around him, he gave people the feeling that there were thousands of troops, and under his leadership, it was like a sharp arrow piercing straight into the camp of the Qingzhou soldiers.

For being able to come to Ziqing, Yang Shihou is very yearning.

Staying in Hedong, you can get moldy, except for suppressing the remnants of Li Keyong from time to time, there is no major war at all.

He also thought that the imperial court would make a move on Zhu Wen, but there was no movement for half a day.

So when he learned that a forbidden army was needed to escort Cui An to Ziqing to take up his post, Yang Shihou took the initiative to ask Ying.

Seeing the strong Qingzhou soldiers in front of him, Yang Shihou's eyes were sharp, and he rushed into the formation of the Qingzhou soldiers with a spear, stabbing left and right, as if entering a no-man's land.

The cavalry of the forbidden army following Yang Shihou was also killing in all directions, and this Qingzhou soldier really regarded himself as one of the three strong clans of Heshuo!

"Yang Shihou of the Zuo Shenwu Army is here, who dares to fight!"

The surrounding Qingzhou soldiers, seeing Yang Shihou's stunning eyes, couldn't help but have the courage to go to the battle.

Behind the army, when he saw that the 2,000 cavalry actually killed his own army like chopping vegetables and melons, and in the end no one dared to go up to meet him, which made Liu Yan angry.

In addition to being annoyed, there is also shock, I didn't expect this forbidden army cavalry to be so strong, and the armor on the body, don't you want money? They are all equipped with iron armor.

Moreover, behind the cavalry, there were 3,000 infantry troops also approaching the battlefield, and seeing the neat and murderous infantry of the 3,000 forbidden army, Liu Yan couldn't help but take a sharp breath.

"Rubbish!"

Seeing that the army was intimidated by such a little enemy army, Liu Yan scolded, and then led the elite cavalry around him to kill.

Although Ziqing does not produce horses, there are still cavalry, and it is not difficult to get war horses when approaching here close to Khitan and Saiwai.

Among the 30,000 troops of Liu Jun, there are 5,000 cavalry, which is already half of the cavalry in Wang Shifan's hands, and this 10,000 cavalry is also one of the reasons why his father Wang Jingwu can shock the entire Ziqing Town when he is alive.

However, after the previous battle, only about 4,000 people remained, and Liu Cheng threw all of them into it, and he didn't want this battle to drag on any longer.

Liu Cheng overturned a cavalryman of the forbidden army, looked around and said loudly, "A certain is Ziqing Liu Jun, and he is arrogant." ”

After speaking, Liu Jun continued to ride his horse and killed Yang Shihou directly.

Seeing the enemy coming, Yang Shihou was not only not afraid, but was ready to move, shouting, "What a gut! ”

Seeing the opponent using a lance, Yang Shihou knew that this was an opponent worth fighting.

Two generals, one gun and one lance, chess meet opponents, and the killing is called a fierce one.

The main generals of both sides were killed together, and the soldiers on both sides were not idle.

As the reliance of the Wang family father and son to rule Ziqing, the Qingzhou cavalry is not a waste, but the gap between the two sides is still obvious, but with the advantage of numbers, it is difficult to distinguish the winner in a short time.

However, just when the cavalry side was fighting fiercely, the infantry battle situation outside had changed.

Encouraged by the arrival of reinforcements, with 3,000 forbidden army infantry plus Zhang Chan and Huo Cun's troops, they quickly launched a counterattack and killed the Qingzhou soldiers in front of them and retreated.

Seeing this situation, the general of the Qingzhou soldiers hurriedly ran to Liu Yan's side and said anxiously, "Commander, we can't fight, if we continue to fight, our losses will be great." ”

Only then did Liu Jun, who came back to his senses, see that the army had turned from offensive to defensive, and he realized that the general on the opposite side deliberately dragged himself so that he could not command the army to meet the battle.

"Retreat!"

There was no need to continue this battle, and Liu Cheng knew that his idea of taking the opportunity to make immortal achievements was shattered.

Seeing the retreat of the Qingzhou soldiers, Yang Shihou led the forbidden army to pursue, but Liu Yan was not that kind of stupid person after all, even if he retreated, he was orderly, and there was no rout because of the pursuit of the enemy.

In the end, under Cui Anqian's order, the whole army stopped the pursuit.

"Jie Shuai, why don't you continue the pursuit?"

Zhang Chan was a little puzzled.

Cui Anqian said lightly, "The strength of the Qingzhou soldiers is still there, and it is difficult to achieve much success if they continue to pursue." After this battle, Wang Shifan is bound to stop for a while, and Ben Shuai also needs to integrate the army to prepare for another battle.

Commander Yang made this battle quite good, if you hadn't arrived in time, this battle would have been a big victory for Qingzhou, and the good situation would have been lost. ”

"The festival commander is too famous, and the last general is just doing his duty." Yang Shihou did not rush to attack at this time, so as not to be squeezed out by Zhang Chan and Huo Cun.

Yang Shihou came to Ziqing just to escort Cui Anqian to his post, and he still had to be transferred back to Hedong later, unless he betrayed the court at this time.

He wouldn't do it unless he was a fool.

So he won't fight with the two of them for power in Ziqing, what's so good, when the imperial army comes, he doesn't have to obediently hand over the power in his hands.

"Commander Yang is humble." Zhang Toad arched his hand.

"Okay, don't compliment each other, the three of them have contributed a lot in this battle, and wait for the marshal to play His Majesty later, and ask for credit for the three of them.

However, there is good news at the moment, Zhu Xuan, the envoy of the Taining Army, said that he would send a large army to assist the commander to pacify Ziqing.

So the three of them don't have to be in such a hurry, take a good rest, wait for the reinforcements of the Taining Army to arrive, and then talk about sending troops to Qingzhou. ”

"Taining Army?"

Hearing the news, the three of them were surprised, and they didn't know how Zhu Xuan thought of mixing with Ziqing?

The situation facing the Taining army now is not very good, if you come to Ziqing to grab territory at this time, wouldn't it be a belly and back to the enemy? Zhu Xuan wouldn't be so stupid!

Zhang Chan and Yang Shihou didn't figure out the key in the middle, but Huo Cun guessed something.

Huo Cun looked at Cui Anqian, who was talking eloquently, and felt happy in his heart, "Interesting, I didn't expect this Zhu Xuan to know how to find a way out!" ”
