After receiving the order, the Jin army hurriedly changed its formation and went south to meet the attacking Song army.

Under the moonlight, among the fireworks, the Song and Jin soldiers were close to each other, and the two sides were intertwined, and a melee and vicious battle were inseparable.

After a few quarters of an hour of fierce fighting, the two sides were at loggerheads in the camp of the Jin army, and neither of them could gain a clear advantage.

Just when Su Shi Zhining was about to personally go to the front line to supervise the battle, he suddenly heard a report from the soldiers: "My lord, an unidentified army has appeared in the rear, which is rapidly approaching us, it is less than a mile, and it is estimated that there are no less than 10,000 people!" ”

"Where did the 10,000 people come from? Explore and report again! Su Shi Zhining was shocked, but he didn't show it on his face.

Who will this army be? Jeju reinforcements? It shouldn't be possible, they didn't ask for support not long after they left Jeju, and there was no reason why Jeju would send another reinforcement army.

"Order the rear army to prepare to meet the enemy!" After thinking about it for a while, Fu Shi Zhining immediately ordered the rear army to be on alert.

Not long after the order was issued, another soldier came to report: "My lord, it's the Song army coming from the rear!" Over 10,000 people! ”

"Let the rear army face the battle! Those who escape, slash! ”

"Yes!"

Song Jun attacked from three sides, and Su Shi Zhining's face changed greatly, but he was not too panicked.

The army he led was the elite of Gongwei Bianjing, if it wasn't for the sneak attack in the camp at night, so that they couldn't show it, the Song army could not be their opponent at all, as long as they held out until dawn, when the army regrouped, the Song army would inevitably be defeated with one blow.

Soon, in the fireworks, under the dim moonlight, the soldiers of the rear battalion of the Jin Army, who had not had time to adjust the formation in a hurry, met with the soldiers of the Song Army who attacked from the rear and rushed into the camp, fighting to the death.

For a time, flesh and blood flew sideways, and Song and Jin soldiers died on the ground all the time.

After about half an hour of fierce fighting between the Song and Jin armies on three sides, Su Shi Zhining became more and more frightened, and according to the report on the battle situation on the front, he found that the Song army in front of him was different from the ordinary Song army, and their tenacity was beyond imagination.

Not only that, the night was dark, and although the specific number of the Song army was not known, judging from the feedback from the front, it would never be less than 20,000 people.

The 20,000 Song army can be evenly matched with his elite division, and even have an advantage at night, which is enough to show that this Song army is not ordinary, and may not simply go north to Juye and Jiaxiang to force the Jeju Jin army to retreat, and respond to the Song army in Xuzhou to hold Xuzhou, maybe they have other goals or ambitions.

Just when Fu Shi Zhining was thinking about the purpose of the Song army's previous weakness and ambush in Juye, there was suddenly another battle report.

"My lord, the enemy has been spotted in the north, and they are coming towards us!"

"How many?" When Su Shi Zhining heard the news, he suddenly panicked in his heart.

"I don't know, it's estimated that there are thousands of people."

"Pass the order, stick to the camp, and wait for dawn, the Song army will be defeated and retreat!"

Su Shi Zhining gave an order, and ordered the soldiers to quickly convey the order.

The Song and Jin armies fought fiercely outside the city for half an hour, with countless casualties.

"My lord, there are more and more Song troops in the north and east, and we seem to have been besieged!"

Fushi Zhining, who was thinking about countermeasures, was disturbed by the news that kept coming back from the front line, and his heart was hesitant, and it was difficult to make a decision between continuing to hold on to the camp and retreating immediately.

Because he didn't believe that the Song army could have the strength to surround his 15,000 elite regiments, Suzhou was four or five hundred miles away from Juye, and it was impossible for the Song army to gather tens of thousands of troops to go north in a short period of time, and the troops were not enough, how could they besiege them?

Perhaps it was because the 15,000 elite troops who were not enough to besiege him that the Song army would deliberately show weakness, and then take advantage of the blurred vision at night to create the illusion that the army was encircled, trick them into retreating, and then mobilize more troops from Jeju to relieve the pressure on the defense of Xuzhou.

Of course, another possibility is that the Song army in Suzhou gave up the defense of Suzhou, and the whole army traveled day and night, going north to Juye and Jiaxiang, taking a risk, but even so, the other side could not mobilize too many troops, at most 30,000.

The 30,000 troops were twice as many as his elite troops, and if he had been in the daytime, he would not have been worried at all, and he might have been able to crush the Song army in less than an hour, but now it was night, and he was in a hurry, and the cavalry advantage could not be brought into play, so he would fall into encirclement.

In any case, it is not a wise move to retreat at this time, retreat in a hurry at night, throw away too many things, and fall into the encirclement, once you choose to retreat, if the Song army chases fiercely, the retreat is no longer orderly, it will inevitably turn into a rout, just like the previous Jeju Song army, the consequences are unimaginable.

After much thought, Fu Shi Zhining ignored the advice of the generals to break through and retreat, and ordered the whole army to hold on, wait for the dawn, and dare to escape without permission, kill!

This Jin army is worthy of the elite troops defending Bianjing, the main general gave an order, even if it was under siege, no team broke through the encirclement and escaped without permission, all obeyed the general's order, while fighting hard, while shrinking the defense, to prevent the Song army from attacking the center of the Chinese army camp.

The two sides fought hard until the fourth watch, the Song army could not continue to advance, and the Jin army could not retreat the Song army, forming a balance of attack and defense between the encircled and the besieged.

After another half an hour of fighting, the Song army in the west and south gradually broke away from the battle with a trumpet, and quickly withdrew back to Baizhang.

But after a while, Jin Jun was desperate to find that it was definitely a mistake not to pursue the Song army, it was too late, and there was no regret medicine to take.

Not long after the Song army retreated to the west and south, countless sharp arrows rushed into the Jin camp from the west and south.

In the darkness, there was no way to defend against it, and in an instant, thousands of people fell to the ground or fell from their horses.

This Jin army of nearly 10,000 people is cavalry, the number of infantry is small, the number of shields is not much, a scuffle down, there is not much left, in the camp, there is no shelter, can not defend against the Song army's bow and crossbow.

But this Jin army is an elite division after all, and after a while, it immediately opens its bow and arrows and launches a counterattack.

The two armies of the Song and Jin armies fired with bows and crossbows on the west and south, and the east and north sides were still fighting each other in close combat, fighting desperately.

If it was daytime at this moment, the Jin army would definitely not stay where and shoot at the Song army, and at night they would not have known that the arrows they shot could not fly to the top of the Song army's head at all, and the Song army far exceeded the range of the Jin army's bows and arrows with its divine arm bow and strong crossbow, and every round of arrow rain fell, hundreds of Jin army arrows were hit, although they could not kill immediately, but it was enough to make them lose their ability to fight.

Seeing that they could not resist the Song army's bow and crossbow, the Jin army retreated one after another, narrowing the distance between the two sides.

The sky was dark, and the Song troops to the west and south had already withdrawn from the melee, and because they did not know the inside of the Jin camp, they did not dare to rush forward after dozens of rounds of arrow rain.

Several more times the bow was drawn, and the crossbowmen stopped firing.

Then, in the moonlight, I saw the crossbowmen dodging left and right, prostrate on the ground.

After the bow and crossbow array, fifteen huge bed crossbows appeared, each of which controlled dozens of soldiers on its side.

Soon, the ** with thick eggs and more than a zhang long was loaded on the crossbow bed.

With an order, ** quickly shot out of the Song army's camp, flew over a distance of 100 zhang, and went straight to the crowded Jin Ying.

The thick **, from the dim night, like a ghost, rushed towards the Jin soldiers, instantly penetrating the bodies of several Jin soldiers, and continued to fly into the distance.

In the end, after penetrating the bodies of dozens of Jin Army soldiers, he was no longer able to fly over and was nailed to the body of a soldier.

The person who was pierced by **, no matter where he penetrated it, even if there were still a few breaths, there was obviously no possibility of survival.

In the dimness, before reacting, a ** instantly captured the lives of more than a dozen golden troops.

At the same time, dozens of ** on the west and south sides flew into the gold camp like a god of death, the speed was so fast that it was impossible to dodge, and the strength was so strong that it was impossible to resist, and in the blink of an eye, hundreds of gold soldiers were killed.

This Jin army has never fought such a tough battle with the Song army, and this kind of weapon has never been seen, and in the darkness of the night, except for the soldiers next to the Jin soldiers who were shot, the others didn't know what was going on, and they were still forming a defensive formation.

After the soldiers next to the crossbow bed of the Song army shot out the first **, they immediately turned the noose, pulled the noose, opened the bowstring, and hung the towing hook.

The egg thick ** is loaded on the crossbow bed again.

Then an order was given, and the launcher fired the plate, ** with the bowstring rebounding, out of bed, flying into the night sky, and heading straight for the enemy camp.

Dozens of ** with tens of thousands of troops re-entered the camp of the golden soldiers, killing hundreds of enemy soldiers in one fell swoop.

Several rounds of ** flew into the Jin camp, and the Jin soldiers were powerless to resist, let alone counterattack, so they could only shoot with their bows desperately.

However, the bow opened again, even if the range increased by a few zhang, the arrows shot could not fly over the distance of nearly 100 zhang between the two armies and fall into the Song army.

The Song Army's Divine Arm Bow and Strong Crossbow were specially made to resist the Liao and Jin people in the north, and over the past two hundred years, several improvements have been made, and have been tested in countless battles to defend the city, with far exceeding the range of the Jin people's bows and arrows, and defeating the enemy army many times.

The northern army is strong cavalry mobile charge, coming and going like the wind, once the confrontation is launched, or the city is defended, the Song army relies on the divine arm bow and strong crossbow to occupy an absolute advantage, if the Liao or Jin people rush to the city to storm the formation, they must pay a greater price, and they may not be able to succeed.

At this time, it was the same, once the distance was opened, the Jin army did not have an advantage, not to mention that it was still besieged in a hurry at night.

The Jin army couldn't resist the ** to deal with, and kept flying into the Jin camp in the dark night, and the Jin soldiers fell and died one after another, and they couldn't deal with it at all.

The battle situation on the west and south sides was sent back to the Chinese army camp, and Su Shi Zhining was shocked and had a headache.

If they charge the battle at night and the battle line is extended, their strength is smaller than that of the Song army, and they are likely to be divided and surrounded by the Song army.

But if you don't rush to the west and south, and close the distance to fight, I don't know how many lives of the soldiers of the Jin Army will be captured by the Song army.

Fu Shi Zhining is in a dilemma again.

The Song army was able to arrange a crossbow array when it was sneak attacking at night, which shows that they were indeed prepared, what was their purpose?
