From the moment Hu Yanzhuo led a chain of horses and heavy cavalry to crash into the rout formation of the thieves in Hedong, the fiasco of Tian Hu's army seemed to have already become a foregone conclusion.

This time, Xiao Jiasui mobilized the officials and troops of Tongba County to rush to help, led by Hu Yanzhuo, Guan Sheng, Xuanzan and other five generals led 6,000 soldiers and horses, while Luo Jian, Wang Jin and Hao Siwen, who had not recovered from arrow wounds, led the rest of the officers and troops to still guard Tongba County. Most of the officers and troops supporting Mianshang on this trip were horse troops, and among them, the chain of heavy cavalry led by Hu Yanzhuo was the main force of the blade to raid the thief formation, although the strength was still not as good as the thieves led by Tian Hu, but with the horse army's elite cavalry to launch a surprise attack on the thief infantry army, it was naturally Xiao Tang's side that had a great chance of victory.

The sound of thunderous hooves and loud roars resounded in the sky, and all the attention was focused on the flanks and rear of the thieves attacking the county seat, and the defenses behind them were very empty, and the heavily armed horse army with armored horses occupied the terrain advantage to launch a fierce charge, and the momentum generated by the iron cavalry caused a devastating blow to the thief formation, how could the thieves whose morale was immediately reduced prevent an effective counterattack?

Among the cheering crowd on the city wall of Mianshang County, Xiao Tang stared at the magnificent scene of Hu Yanzhuo, Guan Sheng, Xiao Jiasui and others leading the horse army to raid the enemy formation, and he suddenly felt that the scene in front of him was very similar to the scene in the movie "The Lord of the Rings 2: The Two Towers" that he had seen in his later life, when Aragorn, Legolas, Jin Li and other comrades-in-arms and Rohan King Xiudon resisted Saruman's orc army in the Valley of the Holy Helmet, Gandalf led the Rohan Hussar Marshal Eomme to lead a large number of cavalry to raid the enemy army. Xiao Tang was also in high spirits, he and Hua Rong and Niu Gao immediately led more than ten cavalry and more than 100 strong cavalry to rush out of Mianshang County, and pursued the defeated thief army together with the chain of iron cavalry, and almost shouted in his mouth: "Luo Han Hussar!" Charge! "That's it......

And the fierce and ruthless Tian Hu is indeed a very cunning green forest hero, when he realized that the several thieves he commanded were too late to guard against it, and he could not resist a large number of officers and iron cavalry who suddenly killed the assault, he immediately decided to flee in panic with his third brother Tian Biao and several strongman leaders to lead the small horse army. Even if the formation collapsed and the morale collapsed, but there were nearly 10,000 thieves in front of the chain of iron horsemen who raided the formation, if Tian Hu wanted to escape now, even if Xiao Tang, Hu Yanzhuo, Xiao Jiasui and others intended to get rid of him, the culprit of the Hedong banditry, as soon as possible, they would be beyond the reach of the whip.

It's just that Tian Hu fled, and a large number of thieves and foot soldiers lacked the command of the leader, and they could only be slaughtered by others.

In the midst of the chaos, as Guan Sheng charged and killed the thief's Xuanzan, he bumped into Qin Sheng, the strongman leader who led the crowd to attack the east gate of Mianshang, and after the two fought for more than 20 times, Guan Sheng had already galloped with the Qinglong Yanyue Sword, and Qin Sheng, who had no intention of fighting, turned his horse and fled when he saw this. But Xuanzan's bow and arrow skills, when he tried Lianzhu arrows, he could win the generals who were good at archery and horse archery, how could he let that guy escape easily at this time? As soon as Qin Sheng urged the horse to escape from a distance of thirty or forty paces, Xuanzan had already drawn his bow and arrows, and after seeing Qin Sheng's clear distinction, an arrow shot away, stabbing him through the back of the heart, and teaching Qin Sheng to die in the chaos on the battlefield.

And Hu Yanzhuo, Han Tao, and Peng Xi continued to lead the well-trained chain of horse troops to rampant in the thief formation, and after three turnaround charges, nearly 10,000 thieves had already made up their minds, and the brigade of foot soldiers cried and screamed for a long time, only caring about their own escape. Xiao Tang took the opportunity to lead the army to pursue and cover the killing, and bit the thieves who fled for miles, more than 4,000 thieves lost their lives in the trampling of iron cavalry and the pursuit of the horse army, and nearly 3,000 thieves threw their blades, knelt on the ground and shouted surrender and spare. The rest of the defeated army scattered into several units and fled to the nearby mountains and forests, which saved their lives......

In the battle of Mianshang County, the forbidden army led by Xiao Tang won a complete victory.

After the war, Li Zhixian immediately ordered the county officials to take the grain stored in the county warehouse to reward the officers, soldiers and horses led by Hu Yanzhuo, Guan Sheng and other generals. Although he ran away from Hedong Kou Shoutian Hu, a large number of thieves who were active in Mianshang and Pingyao were all captured after this battle, which can also be said to solve the urgent need of the counties and towns under his rule. The county government set up a banquet to entertain the generals under Xiao Tang, and the laughter during the banquet was not a problem. It's just that when his subordinates and brothers praised himself for not only being brave and fierce in the three armies, but also being a bold national general, Xiao Tang was not carried away by a big victory, he took a sip of a glass of Chinese wine, and secretly said in his heart: The misfortune of Mianshang County has been solved, and it is time to return to Tongluo County to preside over the overall situation... After all, the war against the thieves in Hedong is not over yet......

A few days later, under the guidance of Ye Qing, the head of Qiu Mansion, part of Qiu Shen's inheritance was exchanged for floating wealth, and Song Zhenniang and Qiong Ying's mother and daughter and the four or five female dependents in the back house had already packed their bags and were ready to go to Tongyu County with Xiao Tang to live temporarily.

Song Zhenniang is still kind-hearted in the end, she chose to leave the mansion of her father-in-law to the children of the Qiu clan, Qiu Shen's previous business of making a living, Song Zhenniang also instructed Ye Qing to go and tell Qiu Jia and others to take over by them. After the situation is more peaceful, in addition to being a husband for herself, she also has to establish a Jiao for her deceased father, and she has to revisit her hometown when burying her ancestral grave, and Song Zhenniang is also ready to say goodbye to this sad place.

The floating wealth and gold and silver she carried, Song Zhenniang thought that it was enough to teach them and Ye Qing and his wife, not to mention that there was also Xiao Tangzhao, who had a high status in Bianjing and taught Song Zhenniang to be trusted with confidence, and now she only wanted to be able to support her beloved daughter Qiongying and grow up happily, and there was no need to let Song Zhenniang worry about trivial matters such as food, clothing, housing, transportation, and family disputes.

Xiao Tang also negotiated with Li Zhixian that in view of the fact that Tongluo County and Mianshang County both belong to the territory of the Weisheng Army, if the thieves come to attack the city again, the county government can also send people to Tongtao County to ask for help. Taking advantage of the escort of the army, Li Zhixian also implored Xiao Tang to bring the displaced people who had migrated here under his rule due to the plague of bandits to Tongluo County, while he remained in Mianshang County to take care of all kinds of affairs in the city, so as to fulfill the duties of a magistrate who ate the country.

It is also because Xiao Tang's command defeated the thieves in Hedong after this battle, and the people in Mianshang County also know that the new officers and soldiers are different from the soldiers and ruffians in the military divisions in Hedong in the past. In order to keep the peace before the bandits were completely quelled, nearly 4,000 people in the county were willing to move eastward, and the number of displaced people in the county reached about 7,000.

After another three days, Xiao Tang ordered Hu Yanzhuo, Guan Sheng and others to lead some of the front and rear teams to protect the villagers, and the people who moved to Tongluo County placed their old and weak women and children, money and silk food on all kinds of vans and tricycles, and tied their family property to the car.

Among the people and horses, there are various specifications of carts used to carry people in the chariots and wagons, and most of the domestic animals pulling the wooden carts are mainly mules and donkeys, and even the young and strong men in the family personally pull them, and the poor and homeless people in ragged clothes in the crowd also have a few large families with silk and satin. It's just that the people are walking together in a crowd, and there are officers and soldiers in the back team escorting nearly 3,000 captured thieves, and the speed of the procession will definitely not be very fast.

However, the previous direct teaching Tian Hu suffered a fiasco, and also killed the Hedong thieves who were scurrying around the territory to the death, and it is expected that only in terms of the current situation, there should not be any strongmen who think that their lives are long, and they will come to hit the knife edges of more than 6,000 elite officers and soldiers.

Song Zhenniang, Qiong Ying, and Ye Qing's wife, An's family, were placed in a van by Xiao Tang, while Xiao Tang rode on his divine horse's mount, and from time to time talked with Xiao Jiasui, Hua Rong, Hu Yanzhuo and other brothers beside him about the resettlement of displaced people, the selection and training of new troops, and other matters. However, what Xiao Tang didn't know was that among the people who migrated to Tongyu County with him, there were a pair of eyes that looked at him from time to time......

The person who secretly observed Xiao Tang was a scholar dressed as a scholar, he was wearing a folded scarf and a light yellow robe, although there were two or three patches on the robe, but the clothes were clean and decent.

At this time, the Xiushi's eyes narrowed slightly, and he was looking at the heroic spirit of Xiao Tang who was not far from him and jumped on the horse, and praised in his heart: This Xiao Tang really deserves to be a well-known Ren Xia in the rivers and lakes. Tian Hu's gang harmed the people of Hedong for his own selfishness, and the weak officials and the military of Hedong were deserted, which caused the fierce criminals to become big thieves... Although I have the ability to be kitky, even the leader of the thieves who is good at fighting is not afraid of him, but unfortunately I can't resist the thieves and soldiers, and I only hate to teach the people to wreak havoc in my mountains and forests, and I have no choice but to travel north.

Although I also have an apprentice who has learned my true knowledge and has been a soldier and horse supervisor in the army, he is far away in Jingdong Road, and he is just a military general who is on an errand in the command of the state government...... Fortunately, this Xiao Renxia went to Hedong Road on business, and my hope that I could return to my former residence in the mountains and forests to continue to cultivate and live in seclusion also fell on this person.

Hehe, as the so-called "to Yitian Tiger Clan, must be harmonious Xiao Renxia"......
