When the flag officer heard Di Qing's words, he immediately waved the red flag, played the flag, and gave the order to Yang Wenguang of the rear army to attack. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info

Yang Wenguang, who was wearing armor all over his body in the rear army, saw that the two armies were killing enthusiastically, and his own vanguard had been waiting here, and he had been waiting impatiently on the hillside, and when he saw that the order of the flag officer finally came out, he immediately threw away the branch that was boring and playing with in his hand, and with the help of the auxiliaries, stepped on his armored war horse.

Behind him, there were nine hundred elite armored cavalry from three battalions selected by the vanguard Zhenxi Army and the Baojing Army. The nine hundred elite cavalrymen were also dressed in iron armor and, with the help of auxiliaries, climbed onto their horses. The 900 armored cavalry of the vanguard army are all wearing heavy armor today, and it is difficult to climb on horseback without the help of auxiliary soldiers.

A flag embroidered with the word "Yang" was raised and waved in the wind. Fiercely.

Yang Wenguang took a deep look at the flag, laughed loudly and said: "Sons, it's time for our protagonist to appear!" ”

The knights of the vanguard army also laughed loudly at this time, and responded loudly: "It's time for our protagonist to perform!" ”

"Erlang, keep up with me, let's go and have a good time, drive!"

"Swear to follow the general!"

After Yang Wenguang finished speaking, he rushed out first, and Yang Huaiyu and the Yang family rushed out on horseback, guarding Yang Wenguang's side tightly.

The rest of the vanguard also took control of their horses and rushed down the hillside.

The cavalry of the vanguard army first instigated the horses from the hillside to trot slowly, slowly increasing their speed, and then began to charge. Because it was a downhill road, it was going to come faster than usual.

Although the vanguard army under Yang Wenguang was less than 1,000 horsemen, at this time, the rumbling speed from the hillside was earth-shattering. Although the armored cavalry of the Western Army was slightly inferior to the heavy cavalry of the Tang Dynasty, it was much more powerful than the light cavalry.

The vanguard swooped down from the rear, ignoring the Nong army that was still entangled with the two flanks of the Western Army's front army in the Glaive Formation, but galloped all the way, like the wind straight into Nong Zhigao's middle army.

The speed of the wind, the rapid and unparalleled impact, any mantis arm as a car, mercilessly crushed into powder, in the blink of an eye, the vanguard cavalry is like a sharp knife, quickly breaking into the nong army's middle army.

After breaking in, the cavalry of the vanguard army divided into two routes, the left army to the right and the right army to the left, and exchanged positions in the middle army battle formation of the entire Nong army, as if entering a no-man's land.

In the rear formation of the Nong army, Nong Zhigao, who was wearing a dragon robe and sitting on the imperial chariot to command the battle, saw that his killer weapon, the elephant army, was cracked by the Song army in an instant, and when the war elephants scattered and fled, he already felt a little bad.

At this time, when he saw the mighty vanguard armor cavalry rushing forward without any hindrance, his eyes widened even more, and he looked at the contradiction array that he was proud of in disbelief under the impact of the Song cavalry, turning into a tofu scum made of paper clay.

This must be a dream...... Not only Nong Zhigao, but also his traitor prime minister, all the Nong troops were frightened by the ironclad cavalry of the vanguard army like heavenly soldiers and generals. For the first time, they knew that there was such a terrifying type of troops, and it turned out that the true power of the cavalry burst out, and it was terrifying.

It is no wonder that most of these barbarians who grew up in the southwest have never been to the north in their lives, let alone seen the true face of the king of war, the cavalry!

Without waiting for them to slow down, the vanguard armored cavalry led by Yang Wenguang had already begun to attack for the second time, and they interspersed back and forth, killing repeatedly, suppressing the momentum of the Nong army to the extreme, and the formation was also chaotic.

And the infantry on both flanks of the Western Army, who were still evenly matched with the Nong army just now, I don't know whether they were inspired by the power of the vanguard armor cavalry, or whether they had hidden their strength just now, at this time they suddenly had a new look, and their combat effectiveness was suddenly strengthened.

The most elite Western army of the Great Song Dynasty, how could it be that it was about to collapse at the touch of a button? In terms of toughness, they are the northern Shaanxi Han who cannot live to be thirty years old; In terms of bravery, they fought fiercely with the most ferocious enemies of the Great Song Dynasty all day long; In terms of morale, they are holding back their strength to give Marshal Di and a long face to the warriors!

What is not better than you?

As the flag bearer keeps changing the flag. The western armies on both flanks began to converge towards the central army, and the glaive array turned into a pocket formation, surrounding the Nong army that was still fighting with the western army just now.

In addition to the vanguard armor cavalry brought by Yang Wenguang, the Western Army also has more than 3,000 elite light cavalry. At this time, they had already begun to detour to the back of Nongzhi's high school army, preparing to intercept them. The Western Army intends to annihilate Nong Zhigao's army in one fell swoop, and does not intend to leave them a way to live.

Di Qing looked at Zhong Hao, who had finally relaxed, and said with a smile: "Wen Xuan, are you willing to chase me to the north!" ”

"I don't dare to ask for it!" Although Zhong Hao didn't have much combat power, he was accompanied by Di Qing with a large number of personal guards, so he was not in danger.

…………

At this time, Nong Zhigao desperately sent troops to the Chinese army to reinforce him, in a vain attempt to resist the rush of the vanguard armor cavalry brought by Yang Wenguang.

But obviously, the formation was chaotic, and the demoralized Nong army could not stop the assault of the vanguard armored cavalry like a tiger out of the cage, and they rushed left and right in the Nong Zhi High School army, without encountering a little strong resistance.

Under the continuous charging and killing of the vanguard armor cavalry, Nong Zhigao's army has reached the verge of collapse......

In fact, when Nong Zhigao's 6,000 elite Nong soldiers and 600 war elephants disappeared under the blow of the Western Army, the Nong Army was already doomed to defeat.

Although Nong Zhigao claims to have 50,000 elite soldiers, in fact, as long as you carefully analyze how these 50,000 Nong troops came about, you will find that in addition to his own soldiers, there are not many reliable ones.

As long as the soldiers of their own clan are defeated, as well as the elephant soldiers with super impact power, in fact, the Nong army basically has no combat power.

The backbone of Nong Zhigao's army is naturally the 8,000 Nong soldiers when Nong Zhigao raised his army, these Nong soldiers are the pillars of the Nong army, and they are also the most elite soldiers of the Nong army, and they are the biggest reliance on Nong Zhigao's previous successes. Before this battle, the Nong soldiers of Nong Zhigao basically suffered no losses.

But just now, in order to defeat the Song army in one go, Nong Zhigao threw in 6,000 native soldiers in one breath. And these Nong soldiers were first rushed and killed by the light cavalry of the Western Army, and then trampled by the war elephants that were scurrying around because they were shocked by the huge explosion of the earth-shattering and explosive packs, and then the strangulation of the Western Army, had completely disappeared.

In fact, the Nong army is only reliable with these 8,000 people. The rest also have more than 10,000 Zhuang soldiers, who are the Huang, Wei, and Zhou families of the four major Zhuang families in Guangnan along with the surname Nong.

At the beginning of Nong Zhigao's incident, the Huang, Wei, and Wednesday families watched coldly. Later, when he saw him sweeping across the two Guangzhous, he came to vote one after another. Although the heads of these three families have all been crowned kings, Nong Zhigao can't expect these guys who see the wind and rudder to live and die with him.

As for the remaining more than 30,000, they are all Han people, bandits, bandits, and bandits who came to vote after Nong Zhigao captured the prefectures and counties of Liangguang. These Han soldiers who took the initiative to vote, because of their full weaponry, were slightly more than the coerced people who stayed in Yongzhou to defend the city, but expecting them to resist the Western Army was tantamount to a fool's dream.

Therefore, after Nong Zhigao's 8,000 Nong soldiers were wiped out at once, and then the Western Army killed the powerful elephant soldiers, Nong Zhigao actually had no hole cards anymore, and he was already doomed to the fate of failure......

…………

The development of events was not unexpected.

First of all, those Han soldiers, they saw that Yang Wenguang's vanguard armor cavalry was extremely powerful, and they were like no one in the middle of the Nong army, and the rest of the cavalry of the Western Army was ready to block their rear road, and they had no will to fight.

Seeing that there was a danger of being surrounded and annihilated, the Han soldiers dropped their weapons and immediately ran away. Their numbers accounted for more than half of the Nong army, and as soon as these Han soldiers fled, the Nong army immediately felt defeated.

The leaders of the other three major families in Guangyuan Prefecture, Huang, Wei, and Wednesday, now the situation is doomed to defeat, those cannon fodder Han soldiers have run away, let's not be stupid, if we don't run again, it is estimated that we will be made dumplings, let's save our strength, run back first to see the situation!

So the troops of the Huang, Wei, and Zhou families also turned their horses, took their clansmen, and quickly fled.

As everyone knows, these Nong troops fell into Di Qing's calculations again, and the art of war is cloudy: "Don't stop when you return to the master", you can't underestimate people's will to survive, if the enemy soldiers find that there is no way to live, they will definitely desperately seek to survive.

What's more, the Western Army in Di Qing's hands is only 30,000 troops, and it is not ordinarily difficult to swallow these 50,000 Nong troops in one bite!

But Di Qing knew very well that the various units of the Nong Army that were put together actually had their own thoughts, and it was difficult to twist them into a rope.

This kind of combined troops, when they have the upper hand and fight a tailwind battle, will naturally be able to advance and retreat together. However, once they are at a disadvantage, many dissenting troops will think about it in all sorts of ways, and when they see that the situation is not good, they will definitely be torn apart and rush to flee for their lives.

Therefore, although Di Qing ordered the two wings of the Glaive Array to encircle the front army, and ordered the cavalry of the Western Army to outflank their rear road, causing a situation of encirclement and annihilation, he also ordered them to slow down and slowly oppress.

His idea was to make the non-descendant soldiers clearly feel the danger of being surrounded, and to give them enough space to escape.

In this way, those non-descendant Nong troops, seeing that there was still a chance of survival, naturally did not fight to the death anymore and continued this battle that had no chance of winning for them, but turned around and fled.

As soon as this non-descendant Nong army ran away, the few remaining Nong Zhigao descendant troops, even if they wanted to resist, they would be quickly wiped out under the overwhelming situation of Mount Tai of the Western Army.

Nong Zhigao is naturally not stupid, seeing those Han soldiers and the troops of the Huang, Wei, and Zhou families fleeing, he knows that now the general trend has gone, not only is this battle going to be lost, but also his "Great Southern Country" is afraid that it will not last long, he can see it more clearly and thoroughly than others.

The prestige of the morale accumulated by his army in the past has completely disappeared, and he is afraid that if he flees back to Yongzhou City, this Yongzhou City will not be able to stand it for long.

Although Nong Zhigao knew that his "Great Southern Kingdom" was about to end, now was not the time to think about this, it was important to flee for his life first.

Therefore, when those non-descendant troops just turned around and fled, he had already thrown away the Huangluo umbrella cover, took off his dragon robe, stepped on his war horse, and galloped towards Yongzhou City. Nong Zhigao's few remaining descendants naturally followed him closely.

Nong Zhigao's descendants are all horses, although the Lingnan bantam horses are not fast, but they are still faster than those two-legged warriors, so Nong Zhigao and his Nong soldiers and descendants of the troops, soon ran in front of those Han soldiers and the troops of Huang, Wei, and Zhou.

Those Han soldiers and the leaders of the Huang, Wei, and Zhou families couldn't help but scold Nong Zhigao for being shameless, and leaving all the war horses for his own soldiers, which was too shameless.

Now that the Nong army has been defeated and started to flee, then don't bother, chase it, so the head-on battle between the Nong army and the Song army began to evolve into a pursuit battle.

Those nongjun non-descendant troops saw Nong Zhigao running away with his descendants, then no one would resist the Song army, it was estimated that the Western army that was chasing and killing was about to catch up, they hurriedly threw away their shields and spears at the first time, took off their armor, and went on the road lightly, and ran wildly towards Yongzhou City.

They heard that the Great Song Dynasty was a state of etiquette, and their emperor even ordered that the enemy should only be repulsed and not pursued. They felt that abandoning their weapons proved that they did not want to fight, and they did not dare to fight. Throwing away the weapons, in fact, they are just "common people", maybe the Song army will not attack these unarmed "people".

Well, in fact, they were really the people of the Great Song Dynasty a few months ago.

However, their hope is very beautiful, but the reality is very cruel, because they have forgotten one thing, this time the commander of the Song Dynasty is a military general, not a civilian official in the past!

Before the battle, Di Qing had already given a death order, and once the Nong army retreated on all fronts, all troops immediately pursued lightly. There is no limit to the pursuit distance, even if you chase to the ends of the earth, you must kill all the rebels and never suffer in the future!

In this world, as long as it is a pursuit war, you can basically ignore the number of people, the strength of the strength, and the defeated side, no matter how many people there are, can only be slaughtered by others.

From near noon to sunset and dark, the Song army pursued and killed for more than fifty miles in one go!

Well, more than fifty miles, it's almost under the city of Yongzhou.

Before going to war, Di Qing ordered generals at all levels to repeatedly preach to the officers and soldiers that if they could not fight in a battle, they would have to entangle with Nong Zhigao for a year, or even several years.

At this time, Guangnan West Road was a wild place in the eyes of the Han people, and the miasma was very serious, and there was a possibility of death at any time. The officers and men of the Western Army were all northerners, and if it were possible, they would not want to stay here even for a day, and they would not be able to end the battle quickly.

I have to admit the strength of spiritual power, under the domination of the idea of "succeeding in the first battle and going home for the New Year", the soldiers of the Western Army closely pursued the defeated Nong army, and cut down countless Nong troops along the way.
