The battle group was chaotic, everyone howled loudly, using all their strength, making a sound that they didn't know what it was, firstly, to cheer themselves up, and secondly, through such howls, they could also express their nervousness. The actual commander of the current Zhang Jiajun is the Zhang Jiaxiao Seventeen, who has high hopes for the Zhang family.

Xiao Seventeen is actually thirty, but it is just a matter of ranking in the Zhang family, but in the first few battles with the thieves, his performance was outstanding, so he was valued by Zhang Yuan, and was recommended by Qian Tong, and was appointed as a garrison in Yan'an, leading the Yan'an garrison of 3,000, of course, these 3,000 defenders were all supported by Zhang Yuan, and they also became an invisible force of the Zhang family.

But this battle in Weinan is related to the fate of the whole of Shaanxi, and more importantly, the army of the border army Jinggi Qinwang was almost starved and scattered by the officials along the way, and it was impossible to turn back to Shaanxi, which made the plan to encircle and suppress the thieves almost bankrupt, and the thieves, as if they had calculated it, were seizing this loophole, and occupied Weinan at once, and took half of Shaanxi, how could this not make Yang He and Hong Chengchou Li Yingqi and others shocked and worried?

Therefore, Hong Chengchou was worried about national affairs, gritted his teeth and sent all the troops, including the Yan'an garrison, hoping to block the attack of the thieves, hoping that in the spring of the next year, the officials and troops would ease their breath, and then slowly plot.

The arrival of Xiao Seventeen made Zhang Yuan extremely happy, and now, for this rabble army, counting the remnants of the original Pucheng that broke through after retreating, plus Zhang Cunmeng, who had voluntarily joined the Zhang Family Army, that is, the habitual bandits did not touch the mud, and the entire Zhang Family Army already had 7,000 really strong troops.

Although Zhang Yuan is low-key, it does not mean that these brothers are low-key people, usually, in this big camp, roaring back and forth, and with the support of almost all the powerful landlords in Shaanxi with the Zhang family, they have sufficient food and grass and are well-equipped, so they make these Zhang family troops extremely domineering.

In particular, there are constantly a large number of children of powerful landlords who have lost their land, or who have been suppressed by the local government and are unwilling, with loyal tenants and large sums of money to support them, making Zhang's army even stronger.

What's more, Zhang Jiajun and the thieves are almost all bitter and bitter, once they meet, they all work hard, although they have been defeated repeatedly, but they have been defeated again and again, that kind of toughness, even Lu Shi admires it incomparably. It also impressed the imperial court. After all, the imperial court is powerless, and now, everything will count on this rising star, which is what those literati doctors have to admit.

Now, on the battlefield, the cavalry of the Zhangjia Army, after the Heren dragoons were wiped out, the only military force that was still dragging the cavalry of the intruding army, although it also suffered heavy losses, but it was still persistent. In particular, those Zhang brothers all have a bitter hatred with the Chuang army, so they all fought with red eyes and did not retreat, one fell, two went up, two fell, and one pounced.

"Brother, I can't surround it anymore, the thieves are too powerful." A brother surnamed Chen of Zhang Jiajun circled the war horse, and reported anxiously in front of Xiao Seventeen, their garrison, with a dead expression.

"Three thousand brothers have gone up, look at it, how many are left now? Brother, let's think of a way."

Yes, his brother shouted and charged one after another, and after He Renlong's own soldiers delayed the impact speed of the cavalry and horses of the invading army, he seized this opportunity and launched an infantry attack on the cavalry.

In fact, once the cavalry is entangled, their combat power is not necessarily stronger than the infantry, as long as the infantry has enough numbers, has the determination not to be afraid of death, and takes out human lives, they will definitely be able to defeat the cavalry.

Now, while once again comprehending the combat power of the thieves, he also saw his own results, the thieves were entangled in the local area, unable to move half an inch, although on their own side, the three thousand brothers who went up were killed and wounded, but it was worth it. How can an army, a group, that wants to survive in troubled times, not have this, or a bloodier and more tenacious battle, be tempered? Just like there was no Ganquan blocking the door in the first battle, and the corpses were piled up under the ice castle of the little thieves, where would there be such a mighty momentum today?

That battle made the Zhang brothers deeply understand that in order to train a strong army, it is not only necessary to have a strong backing of money, but also to have like-minded people, but also to constantly experience blood and fire, and constantly select among tens of millions of people.

In fact, once the success is achieved, the consciousness of this is that those truly dazzling celebrities are actually the ones who died among tens of millions of people, and that is the elite. In this world, it's not that there is no Yue Fei, in fact, there is no him, there are also Zhao Fei and Wang Fei, it's just that they are not lucky, they don't have Yue Fei's long life, how do you know, just now, the brother who died under the thief's saber, if he can survive this battle, he will be a dazzling general?

"The opportunity is rare, tell the brothers, this is our chance for revenge, the opportunity is rare, it will be rare after it has passed, tell the brothers to grit their teeth and hold on, and our brother will bring reinforcements over in a while." Xiao Seventeen's eyes stared at the battlefield, and he said lightly without looking back.

Watching the brothers scream and fall under the saber of the thief, there was no expression in his heart and face.

At this time, raise your eyes and look at the east bank of the Wei River. Dust was already rising high there, and it seemed that reinforcements had arrived urgently.

Seeing the dust raised, Xiao Seventeen still couldn't help but muttered to himself with envy, "I'm so envious." ”

"What?" A brother next to him asked in confusion.

"I really envy the thieves, how can they come up with such a strong and fast army? Could it be that the thief Lu Shi is really the reincarnation of the Heavenly King? Is it really here to plague this already riddled Ming? ”

The brother beside him couldn't help but be gloomy.

Yes, this attack by the intruding army was definitely the improvised intention of the reckless man Guotianxing, and there was no plan at all.

Both sides rushed into battle, but it was this kind of haste, in fact, it was cheaper for the officers and troops, after all, the officers and troops occupied the land and were close to it, especially when the thieves came to attack, and there was a large battalion to rely on, and there was a time adjustment, and the thieves' camp was in Weinan, ten miles away from the Wei River, passing news back and forth, and then discussing the distribution, in the mobilization of men and horses, in terms of time, it was inferior, in fact, according to estimates, the thieves received the news, and then arranged, it took at least half a day, that is, at least until noon.

And here, after the adjustment, it doesn't take one hour, that is, the difference between the two is at least four hours.

However, it has been less than an hour now, and there has been smoke and dust rising from Weinan, and after this small smoke and dust, there is even greater smoke and dust rushing straight to Xiaohan, indicating that the front is just a small group of former army reinforcements, and a large group of reinforcements have been dispatched.

Look at my own side again, I just waited for an army, and the officers and soldiers stationed in the joint camp on the bank of this river were fighting, and the army in the large camp was dispatched, but there was still no news, and it seemed slow and outrageous.

"We don't have much time, we must annihilate this group of thieves in this rare time, definitely." Xiao Seventeen muttered to himself, and then, turning around, he said to the herald beside him: "You hurry back to the big tent again, urge Brother Zhang, reinforcements, you must rush to the reinforcements at the fastest time, opportunities don't wait for people, time waits for no one." ”

The soldier immediately agreed, turned over on the horse, and whipped the horse's buttocks fiercely, and the horse was in pain, and the horse neighed away in the dust.

However, this personal soldier had just left, and a herald came in the direction of the Chinese army's big tent, and the arrival of this herald made Xiao Seventeen, who was not alarmed, his face couldn't help but be full of anticipation and ecstasy.

Reinforcements are coming, they must be coming.

"When will the reinforcements arrive, and what kind of troops? Who leads the team? Xiao Seventeen gave up his composure, and before the herald could report, he continued to ask questions.

"Lord Qiqi garrison, I will pass on the order of the governor general, and the entire Zhang family army will reorganize the army and retreat." The herald reported loudly with disdain.

"What? The whole army retreated? Little Seventeen shook his head in disbelief and looked at the strange herald in surprise.

Suddenly jumped up, and went up with a kick, "Fake military orders, are you looking for death?" "Yes, at this time, anyone can see that there can only be reinforcements, there is no reason to withdraw the army, if the army is really withdrawn, it is to give up this once-in-a-lifetime opportunity, not Xiao Seventeen conceited, at this critical time, when the battlefield is scorched, there is really a war, the power to dare to fight, only their own Zhangjia army, only their own army, can achieve this once-in-a-lifetime victory.

The herald who was kicked was not only not annoyed, but had a little awe of this little seventeen, at this time, there are really not many people who can take responsibility and dare to fight, and it is someone else, who received this order, is definitely grateful to the gods and Buddhas, and then, the first one with his tail between his legs, triumphantly retreated to the rear.

However, a military order is a military order, even if it is this herald, he knows the business and dirt after this military order, but he still took out the military order and handed it to Xiao Seventeen, and said lightly: "The governor personally signed it, I don't have the courage to say nonsense, you can see for yourself." ”

Xiao Seventeen didn't believe it, and the military order was clear, and the black and white words were clear, especially the big red seal, which stabbed people's eyes even more.

"No-" After being stunned for a long time, Xiao Seventeen raised his head to the sky and shouted, "No, I will never withdraw my troops, I will never, on the battlefield, there are only the Zhang family brothers who died in battle, and there are no scum of the Zhang family who fled for their lives." ”

This long hiss not only made the Zhang brothers' blood boil, but also made the herald full of respect.

At this moment, a fast horse galloped again, and it was the brother sent by Xiao Seventeen to ask for help.

The brother didn't wait for Xiao Seventeen to ask, nor did he get off the horse, so he said to Xiao Seventeen with a frustrated face: "Brother Garrison, Brother Zhang has an order, we-" took a deep breath: "We withdraw the army." ”
