Chapter 124: Night Attack

The battlefield of Qingchuan River has experienced a day of fighting, and the corpses are all over the north bank of the river, and the original scorched weeds and clear river water are dyed with a touch of bright color by the red bloodstream, revealing weirdness, wrapped in slaughter,

Although the rest of the men and horses were not directly involved in the battle except for the cavalry of Long'an Mansion, the tension that lasted for a day still made the two camps of this thing deeply tired.

Due to the loss of confidence in Zeng Ziren, An Yi has begun to arrange his three battalions to retreat to the south one after another, and the only people left in the Qingchuan River camp are actually more than 2,000 cavalry under Pei Zhenfeng.

Jiang Yun's Chinese military camp has withdrawn to Chengdu with Jin Mingyin under the instruction of comfort, he thinks that north of this empty and vast Fox Ridge, there is no danger to defend at all, and the firearms battalion can't play too much, so it is better to go to Chengdu, report the change to Jiang Ruyue, and prepare early, just in case.

The official army camp in the west is much simpler, and the commander Zeng just said a word, resist the river and defend it!

There was a small episode in the middle,

Because the cavalry battalion of Long'an Mansion killed Shang Zhixin, Zeng Ziren sent someone to ask An Yi for a person, that is, Zhao Jizong, the current deputy general of the Ya Guard Battalion of the Chengdu Garrison Bureau, to let Zhao Jizong replace Shang Zhixin, who died in battle, as the commander of the cavalry battalion of Long'an Mansion.

I was also worried about comfort and didn't let people go, so I specially sent someone to invite a tiger talisman to ask for someone.

Because he is an old subordinate of the old commander, as the new garrison general, An Yi demoted him to deputy general, which has already caused some tongue, if he is directly dismissed, it will inevitably cause unnecessary commotion in the ranks.

But this Zhao Jizong made it clear that he was not a person in the boat of comfort, so Zeng Ziren sent someone to ask for it, and it can also be said that he was in the middle of comfort.

It's just that

The two camps of things that do not agree with each other did not expect that this Yelu Xiuke did not stop for a moment, and touched the Qingchuan River overnight.........

This little prince did have two brushes, and when he looked at it roughly in the daytime, he recognized that Zeng Ziren's western camp was the best breakthrough, and took advantage of the night to attack Zeng Ziren's camp at night.

"My lord! Oh no! The west side is on fire! ”

When Pei Zhen ran into the comfortable camp tent in a hurry, An Yi had already leaned on the collapse and was about to rest.

Hearing Pei Zhenfeng say that something was wrong in the west, he jumped up again, put on his plain brocade robe, and followed Pei Zhenfeng out of the camp and climbed up to the lookout.

From a distance, I saw the fire in the west camp raised several feet high, swallowing up most of the camp near the river, under the light and shadow, the crowds were crowded, the horse shadows were staggered, and the Liao cavalry who were wading in the Qingchuan River could be seen faintly.

The neighing of people and horses, the sound of gold and iron, Rao can be heard in comfort here, and the Xia army with a fire on his body constantly jumped into the Qingchuan River, and the Liao people who were caught up stabbed with a saber to the heart.

"Zhenfeng, gather all the cavalry, leave me a hundred people, you take all the rest, plus three days' rations, go around to the south of Zeng Ziren's camp, remember, don't pick up the enemy, let alone join the melee, just garrison there, Zeng Ziren's men and horses retreat don't care, let them go, but not a single Liao person is allowed to cross your defense line, until you see the fire on my side, you immediately retreat in the direction of the sky, understand?"

An Yi pointed to the position south of Zeng Ziren's camp, and instructed Pei Zhenfeng beside him,

"Understood!"

Pei Zhenfeng arched his hand towards the one and took the order.

The big camp to the west

Zeng Ziren was already in a panic in the big tent of the Chinese army,

"Mr. Zhao, how many people do we have in our hands? How are you going to fight now? ”

He looked at the growing fire in the camp, turned his head and asked Zhao Jizong,

Zhao Jizong was also choked up for a while when he asked, how else could he fight? It's over!

"Now that the battle is in chaos, the morale is completely lost, and with this monstrous fire, even the battalions can't be contacted, how can they fight? Set a rally point and give the order to retreat! ”

Zeng Ziren nodded, grabbed the life-saving straw in his hand and asked, "That'...... Where is it located? ”

Zhao Jizong, who asked, was also dark-eyed, and said in his heart, I will be the commander for you, but he still replied patiently: "In my opinion, let's set up in the Fox Ridge Fortress, now let everyone retreat separately and reassemble in the Fox Ridge Fortress!" ”

"Good!"

Zeng Ziren nodded like pounding garlic, hurriedly agreed, and then found the soldiers beside him and ordered: "Quick!" The order went down, and everyone abandoned the camp and retreated in the direction of Fox Ridge! ”

"Yes!"

Subsequently, he and Zhao Jizong found two fast horses, took a dozen personal soldiers behind them, and took advantage of the fact that the Liao people had not yet killed the position of the Chinese military tent, and the flying horses took the road to the south.

The order to retreat soon spread throughout the battalion, so that the Xia army, which had no intention of resisting, instantly lost the courage to resist, dropped the weapon in his hand, spread his legs, and ran south of the camp.

How could Yelu Uk, a man who is good at using soldiers, let go of such an opportunity, he can order the army to cover up the killing, not to covet the baggage in the camp, and to kill and injure a large number of Xia troops as the main purpose.

Tuoba Yin and the Liao army were at the forefront, so Zeng Ziren's bright armor and dozens of personal soldiers following behind him immediately attracted his attention.

"You guys come with me!"

He casually ordered the famous cavalry, carried the spear in his hand, and chased after Zeng Ziren.

"My lord, there is a Liao army behind, it seems to be coming for us!"

Zhao Jizong, who was following Zeng Ziren, keenly discovered Tuoba Yin who was following,

Zeng Ziren was also in a hurry to be chased, and said in his heart that this Liao man kicked my camp, not to mention, this is still chasing after me, and for no reason a little anger rushed up from the bottom of his heart,

As soon as he pulled the reins of the horse in his hand, he turned the horse's head and saw that Tuoba Yin had only brought seven or eight cavalrymen, and then said to Zhao Jizong: "What are you afraid of!" That's all there is to them! ”

Zhao Jizong still stopped the little young master relatively calmly and persuaded: "Absolutely not!" Your Excellency, take your own soldiers and leave a few people for me, and I will stop him!" Once you entangle with them here, more and more Liao people will surround you, and it will really be difficult to fly when the time comes. ”

At this time, Zhao Jizong's opinion is still very meaningful for Zeng Ziren, after all, there is no one else to discuss, so he had to nod hatefully and wave his hand towards the soldiers, "A few of you stay to help Mr. Zhao, and the others continue to follow me!" ”

Then, Zhao Jizong took the five personal soldiers left by Zeng Ziren to him, carried the long knife in his hand, and stood in place, coldly looking at Tuoba Yin, who was chasing non-stop.

"Sigh Rule~"

Tuoba Yin knew that Zhao Jizong was left by the "big fish" in front of him to stop him, so he didn't plan to stop at all, crossed the spear in his hand, and rushed towards the one-eyed general in front of him.

"Boom!"

To say that this Zhao Jizong still has some strength in his hands, Tuoba Yin with the spear of the war horse under his crotch is still hard shaken by him!

"Ahh

Tuoba Yin quickly drew back his spear, and used the weight of the iron gun shaft to smash it towards Zhao Jizong.

"Boom!"

The long knife in Zhao Jizong's hand struck at his head, causing the spear that was smashed down with the power of the landslide, except for the sound wave of the hilt buzzing and vibrating, he could not advance half a step.

"Come again!"

Tuoba Yin was obviously a little annoyed that his offensive was blocked,

The hands holding the spear deftly reversed, rounded the big gun again, and with the strength of the waist, it swept sideways towards Zhao Jizong's lower waist.

"Dang!"

Of course, Zhao Jizong was not ambiguous, his hands held the handle of the knife steadily, straight to his side, and his crotch exerted his strength to send his waist forward, and once again firmly caught Tuoba Yin's offensive.

Tuoba Yin came up and didn't say a word, this stab, a smack, and a sweep of the three-plate axe were all resolved by Zhao Jizong.

"Hehe, there are two hits!"

Zhao Jizong looked at the panting Tuoba Yin calmly, as if he did not cause anything unusual because of his three-plate axe, which also made Tuoba Yin, who had an age advantage but did not have the upper hand, a trace of panic passed in his heart.

"It's my turn!"

Zhao Jizong shouted, and slashed back towards Tuoba Yin with the long knife in his hand! The cavalry behind the two also joined the battle group..............

Zeng Ziren took the rest of his own soldiers, and he didn't encounter any obstacles along the way, and rushed out of the camp gate in the south together with the Xia army who fled in a panic around him.

"My lord! There are Liao soldiers! ”

The soldier behind him pointed to the front and shouted in surprise,

This shout not only frightened Zeng Ziren, but also stopped the footsteps of the fleeing sergeants around him like a fixation charm.

Zeng Ziren looked in the direction of his finger, and sure enough, under the faint night, there was a group of cavalry standing quietly in the dark, roughly counting about thousands of people,

"It's over, it's over, it's completely over!"

Zeng Ziren felt a burst of despair in his heart, these few pro-soldiers around him and the remnants of the defeated soldiers around him, where is there still the strength to fight, this is not a dead end?

However, just when he was in despair, one of the leaders of the cavalry on the opposite side spoke first:

"It's Lord Zeng, the commander of the Sichuan Metropolitan Command?"

Hearing this familiar voice, Zeng Ziren who was immediately hurriedly responded: "Exactly, dare to ask who the general is?" ”

"Pei Zhenfeng, the commander of the Chengdu garrison pioneer battalion, is stationed again on the order of the garrison general, please pass quickly!"

Pei Zhenfeng arched his hand towards Zeng Ziren from afar, and said loudly,

His voice was as ethereal as a god, and the sergeants who had just escaped in a hurry rushed away as if they were amnesty.

Seeing that it was Pei Zhenfeng, Zeng Ziren breathed a sigh of relief, so he stepped forward and said, "Mr. Pei, hurry!" The Liao army attacked at night, you took the cavalry in your hand, killed them, and blocked them! ”

How do you know that Pei Zhenfeng arched his hand towards him expressionlessly, and said apologetically: "I'm sorry Lord Zeng, my subordinates have received orders to be stationed here and not to participate in the battle group, so you better hurry over, I am here to stop the Liao." ”

"You!!"

As Zhu Zongchen said, although he is the commander of the Sichuan Metropolitan and the supreme commander of the Green Battalion, Zeng Ziren can't mobilize the soldiers and generals under An Yi at all.

"It's not enough for the adults to pass in the end, after a while, the Liao people rushed out, the sword has no eyes, and they can't spare their hands to protect the adults!"

Pei Zhenfeng watched the cavalry of the Liao army vaguely behind them pursue out of the camp, and raised the steel gun in his hand to the front of him, urging Zeng Ziren to say,

Zeng Ziren gritted his teeth: "Count you as a kind!" Let's go! ”

With the cavalry behind him, he headed towards the direction of Fox Ridge.

"Listen, everybody! The garrison has an order, not to let go of a Liao person! Kill me! ”

Pei Zhenfeng took the reins of the horse, raised the front hooves of the war horse under his crotch, and then began to lead the cavalry like a windmill with a steel spear dance in his hand, harvesting the scattered Liao troops who wanted to chase out of the camp back and forth.......

With the arrival of the last cavalry, Zeng Ziren's huge camp was basically free of the Xia army's resistance except for the raging fire set by the Liao.

Yelu Xiuke sat on the horse, his left hand was gilded and his right hand was Chiyangshuo, the blood flow on the weapon had not dried up, slowly dripping to the ground, and there were two human heads hanging in front of the saddle on the horse's back, one of which was Zhao Jizong, who had just stayed to block the enemy!

"Your Highness, there is a cavalry of the Xia Army in the south of the camp, about 2,000 people, blocking the way of our army's pursuit, the pioneer Meng'an asks for instructions to continue the attack?"

Yelu Xiuke looked east through the fire in the camp, and set his sights on another summer army camp on the south bank of the Qingchuan River.

"Tell him to stop the pursuit, turn his head, and quickly capture the camp to the east!"

"Yes!"

For him, this comfortable camp represented food and supplies, and Yeluxiu could pack up the Xia army in the east with a single blow, so that the army coming from afar could get a little respite.

"Your Highness, look!"

however

An Yi obviously didn't want to give up the grain and grass that he couldn't take away to the Liao people.

Yelu Xiuke followed the direction pointed by Tuoba Yin, and saw that a sky-high fire had already broken out in the summer military camp to the east, and the fire seemed to have encountered the fire oil prepared in advance, and the entire camp was set on fire with three or two deflagrations.

"Tuoba Yin, send someone to inquire about the name of the general of the Xia Army in the east!"

Jerecius's ice-blue eyes, staring coldly at the fire in the east, commanded.

Pei Zhenfeng also saw the fire in the comfortable camp, and according to the order agreed in advance, he shot the steel gun in his hand into the sky, and ordered loudly to the surroundings:

"Everyone! Remove! ”

With his order, the last Xia army on the south bank of the Qingchuan River also fled south and disappeared into the night............
