Chapter 1031 Stealing Chickens Doesn't Make Rice

Before, Lin Feng led the army, and after arriving at the four cities of Yanjiang, he received the news that the Song army was near Yancheng. Heavenly Sounds "." ⒉

At that time, Lin Feng and the generals realized that if nothing happened, the Yan army and the Song army would have a big battle in Fumapo.

The officers and men of the whole army, not daring to stay in the south for a long time, took a hot air balloon, used paragliders, and glided wings, and the army crossed the Yangtze River at night.

The plan was to go directly to Bury Mapo, however, after landing, after getting the news, Hou Mingfeng led the main army to Bury Mapo to set up defenses, Gu Yue, Lei Zhanhu stayed in Yancheng, delaying the Song army.

Hearing the news, Lin Feng was extremely dissatisfied with Hou Mingfeng's arrangement, but he couldn't vent his anger.

After all, Hou Mingfeng's deployment is militarily flawless and very correct.

Withholding his anger, he sent Ju Wentai, Zhao Jun, and Zhao Hongru to use the aircraft to arrive in Yancheng in the fastest time, rescue Gu Yue, Lei Zhanhu, and save the surviving Yan army in Yancheng.

For a while, the Yan army took advantage of the night to march quickly, and after arriving near Yancheng, they learned that the main force of the Song army also gathered here.

Zhao Hongru and Zhao Jun respectively led 100,000 ironclad infantry and 50,000 light cavalry to Yancheng non-stop.

Ju Wentai led 50,000 iron cavalry, and when night fell, when all the attention of the Song army was concentrated on Yancheng, the cavalry attacked the Song army camp at night.

Lin Feng and Feng Shihu led 50,000 iron horsemen to the territory of the Song Kingdom in the dark, striving to surprise and attack them unprepared, and show themselves under the nose of Song Qi.

It would be better to control Kaifeng, the center of the Song State, and disintegrate the power of the Song State.

At the same time, Lin Feng commanded, after defeating the Song army attacking Yancheng and sweeping the main force of the Song army, Zhao Hongru led the ironclad infantry to attack the southern part of the Song State, Ju Wentai and Zhao Jun's cavalry combined to attack the northern part of the Song State, and Hou Mingfeng led the army under his account to go directly to the hinterland of the Song State and strive to approach Kaifeng.

The three armies were reasonable, striving to disintegrate the Song State and eliminate the hidden danger of Dayan in the north.

This time, Song Qi took the lead in provoking the incident, and Dayan happened to take the opportunity to not lose Song Guo.

In one fell swoop, solve the troubles in the north and concentrate on going south.

That's why Zhao Hongru and Zhao Jun led the foot riders, such as descending from the sky, and suddenly appeared in Yancheng.

At this moment, in the joint attack of Zhao Hongru and Zhao Jun, the Song army was like a lamb on a caseboard, just waiting to be slaughtered.

In the main street in the city, the Song army panicked and panicked.

The Yan army defending the city has already made them pay a heavy price. They didn't expect that when the Song army was about to seize the city, a Yan army would appear in Yancheng on foot.

Breaking into Yancheng tonight, not only could he not capture Yancheng, but he was trapped in Yancheng.

As the main general, a moment ago, Yue Zhenchuan came violently, roaring and ordering the army to annihilate the remaining Yan army.

Now, the situation has changed dramatically, and the Yan army, which witnessed the front and rear attacks, has seen a sharp decrease in the murderous aura of his body, and has been replaced by a burst of panic.

Swinging his knife to panic the Song army in all directions, he shouted in a cold voice: "Don't panic, the whole army will come out from the south gate." ”

At this moment, the ironclad infantry of the West Gate came, and the cavalry of the East Gate charged, only the South Gate and the North Gate, there was no trace of the Yan Army.

If you want to escape from the front and rear attacks of the Yan army, you can only evacuate first.

Although it is possible to be chased by Yan cavalry on the way back, if you don't flee at the south gate, will you be completely annihilated by the Yan army? Hearing the sound, the panicked Song army quickly assembled and followed Yue Zhenchuan to evacuate to the south gate.

Either way, get out of the south gate first and save your life.

However, Zhao Hongru and Zhao Jun, who were violently killed, and Gu Yue and Lei Zhanhu, who had persevered so far and squeezed anger in their hearts, had no intention of letting the Song army escape.

Nearly 20,000 Yan troops died in battle, if the Song army was allowed to escape, when would they avenge the Song army that died in battle.

Zhao Hongru had a crossbow in his hand, and after shooting a Song army, he turned to Gu Yue beside him, and Lei Zhanhu asked: "General Gu, General Lei, can you still hold on?" ”

"General, the last general is fine, if you don't completely annihilate the Song army, the last general will never fall!" Lei Zhanhu said loudly.

"Me too!" Gu Yue corresponds.

Zhao Hongru glanced at the arrow wounds on their bodies, nodded, and said to his cronies: "You each lead 10,000 people, with General Lei and General Gu, to quickly clear the remnants of the Song army in the city." ”

"Yes!" Two cronies said.

At this time, Zhao Hongru dragged the war knife and shouted wildly to the Yan army behind him. "Brothers, divide into two waves, from the east and west, intercept and kill the Song army, and never let the Song army leave alive!"

"Yes!"

With a fierce voice, the ironclad infantry who swarmed into the city from the west gate quickly dispersed, and Zhao Hongru walked through the streets and alleys, like two swimming dragons, moving in the wild goose city, intercepting and fleeing from the Song army.

For a while, screams sounded in the rear of the Song army, and the Song army, which had no time to escape, was forced to grab the soldiers and fight with the Yan army.

However, without the help of the trebuchet, how could he have the ability to resist the ironclad infantry wearing iron armor and holding swords?

Zhao Jun rode his horse over, how old was the Song army had fled in a hurry, he had no words, he directly led the troops to intersperse quickly, pursued along the way, and shot the crossbow arrows and arrows quickly, and he would not easily let the Song army escape.

In the process of fleeing in a hurry, Yue Zhenchuan heard the shouts of the Yan army and the screams of the Song army, and there were broken arrows flying by him from time to time, and his heart was like ashes.

The Yan army pursued too closely, and he had the intention to imitate the Yan army and set up an ambush in the streets and alleys of the city, but he didn't have time to prepare at all.

Occasionally, the Song army turned around to block, but the Yan army was like a huge wave rushing on the sea, and the huge wave instantly engulfed all the Song army.

The waves spread, and everywhere they passed, there was a mess, and the Yan army chased them, leaving behind a corpse and flowing blood.

For a while, the Song army's road back to the east seemed to pass through the 100,000 mountains, which was extremely difficult.

Every time you take a step forward, in the rain of arrows and butchers of the Yan army, there will be stubborn resistance, or the Song army that fled in a hurry will fall and become a ghost in the hands of the Yan army.

It is no wonder that the Yan army's methods are cruel, because the Song army is despicable, seizing the four counties of Yan State, and forcing the surviving Yan army led by Gu Yue and Lei Zhanhu to a dead end, but they are still preparing to slaughter the whole army.

At this moment, no matter how bloody the Yan army was, Zhao Hongru and Zhao Jun only followed the cat and the tiger and took revenge on the Song army by paying for the blood debt. After the Song army shuttled through half of the city, Yue Zhenchuan realized that Fang had just encountered the Yan army, and the army did not fight with it, what a stupid choice.

When he ordered the whole army to withdraw, the Song army lost its best chance to resist.

In the face of the entanglement of the Yan army like a dog's skin plaster, they were like a pack of wolves, finding prey in the grassland, signaling expulsion, concentration, and finally attacking frantically and slaughtering all the prey.

At great cost, the Song army withdrew at the south gate, and the Yan army followed the south gate closely, taking advantage of the large number of Song troops gathering at the south gate, they densely launched crossbow arrows, like a summer day, a violent storm, sweeping the land.

At this time, nearly 60,000 Song troops had been divided into several pieces by the Yan army like cutting a cake.

The Song army, which was moving at a faster pace, arrived at the south gate in the pursuit of the Yan army, and was about to open the south gate, preparing to flee.

Those who were slower in pace, in order to save their lives, had to assemble in the city to fight the Yan army.

Hope to defeat the Yan army and escape death, but unfortunately, this hope is very slim.

At this moment, there were only a few thousand Song troops around Yue Zhenchuan, Wu Xiaoyun was gone, and the other two Zhonglang generals were also gone.

Only the shouts of killing in the city proved that they might still be alive.

Looking at the Weiwei South Gate, Yue Zhenchuan's heart was dripping blood, how could this be like this tonight, 100,000 Song troops, do they all want to bury Yancheng?

In the current situation, even though he was a pioneer in the past, conquered many cities in Dayan, and established many meritorious achievements, more than half of the 100,000 Song troops were killed and wounded in his hands.

Today, he was lucky enough to escape from Yancheng and return to the Song army camp, he couldn't explain to the general, he couldn't explain to Song Qi, all the military exploits turned into the past, on the contrary, there was a disaster of death.

However, at this time, Yue Zhenchuan couldn't care too much, he would rather return to China to be punished than stay far behind, otherwise, the 100,000 Song army, including him, would encounter a life and death crisis.

Under the rain of arrows of the Yan army, the forward army of the Song army quickly opened the south gate, and the soldiers of the Song army rushed out like a flood of floodwater.

Yue Zhenchuan led the army to rush out, raised his sword and shouted: "Brothers, quickly move to the barracks!" ”

In other words, all the way to the east, I dare not stop at all.

At this moment, Yue Zhenchuan and Song Jun's only thought was to return to the barracks quickly.

When encountering several times the pursuit of the Yan army and having no time to defend, it is only possible to stop the Yan army with the help of the Song army in the barracks and go all out.

What's more, the Yan army of Yancheng that appeared in these two groups seemed to have fallen from the sky, and the way they came was extremely mysterious.

When he attacked Yancheng, there was no information about these two armies in all the information he had.

In addition, there is no news of these two armies in the intelligence collected by Yu Zhendong, otherwise, it would be impossible for Yu Zhendong, Han Junshan, and Zhao Yanpu to stay in the military camp without making any preparations for battle.

Therefore, he had to return to the barracks non-stop, and inform Yu Zhendong of the news that the Yan army had appeared in Yancheng, so that he could prepare early and evacuate from the vicinity of Yancheng.

Otherwise, even the army under the eastern tent of Yu Zhen was also attacked by the Yan army, and the Song army would suffer heavy losses.

Not long ago, the capture of the four counties of Yan State would change hands in the blink of an eye and be recovered by the Yan army.

At that time, the Yan army marched all the way east, and even the territory of the Song State would be damaged by the Yan army.

With great courage to survive and the idea of reporting the military situation, Yue Zhenchuan rode his horse and galloped along the way, and even ignored the Song army following behind.

However, not long after rushing out of the south gate, Yue Zhenchuan was completely dumbfounded when he could see the Song army's camp.

When he galloped his horse and looked up in the direction of the barracks, there was a fire above the barracks, and half of the sky was lit red.

There is no need to guess, it is clear that at some point, the barracks were also attacked.

This attacking army must also come from the Yan army.

For a while, Yue Zhenchuan was depressed in his heart, and he didn't know how to describe it.

Like a lost lamb in the grassland, going to the barracks, undoubtedly seeking his own death, riding his horse back, fighting to the death with the Yan army, in the case of the Song army being broken up by the other party, there is still no good end, and the next moment, like all the Song army, become the soul of the Yan saber.

I can't understand, I can't understand at all, how could the Yan army in the south suddenly appear, and there are so many of them, that they can divide their troops to attack the two Song armies.

Yue Zhenchuan was depressed and puzzled, Yu Zhendong, who stayed in the barracks and was waiting for the good news, was even more depressed and puzzled, why the good barracks suddenly caught fire and rushed in a large number of Yan army iron cavalry.

After nightfall, Yu Zhendong, Han Junshan, and Zhao Yanpu had a dinner, thinking that after dawn, Yancheng was broken, and Ma Po could be buried, and Yu Zhendong was full of expectations.

In the middle of the night, in the quiet barracks, ten miles away, the shouts of killing in the wild goose city could be heard clearly.

Amidst the shouts of killing, Yu Zhendong rested in the barracks.

However, I don't know when, the sound of shouting and killing in his sleep became heavier and clearer, and after Yu Zhendong was woken up, he clearly heard the shouting and killing sound coming from the barracks, and he was completely awake from his hazy sleepiness.

After simply putting on the battle armor and grabbing the war knife and rushing out of the military tent, the barracks has become a sea of fire.

In the Song army that was carried out in their sleep, some were naked, some were half-clothed, and some were holding weapons, but they looked dazed.

At the same time, countless ironclad cavalry and prancing horses shuttled through the barracks, holding crossbows and ring knives, killing with lightning speed.

After a little panic, Yu Zhendong immediately realized that the Yan army was unaware of the ghosts, killed in the barracks, and hurriedly said loudly: "Enemy attack, enemy attack, the whole army quickly gathers and fights with General Ben." ”

The military order fell, and in the chaos, many Song troops rushed out from all directions.

At this time, Han Junshan, who was wearing a long robe and holding a war knife, led a small number of Song troops to rush over, panicked and said to Yu Zhendong: "General, the last general will cover you, retreat quickly, the Yan army is despicable and slaughtered all our war horses!" ”

"Han Junshan, don't want to talk nonsense and disturb the morale of the army, more than 100,000 Song troops, are you afraid of Yan Qi, immediately gather the army and fight with this general." Yu Zhendong was resolute in his words, and had no intention of fleeing.

However, Han Junshan panicked in his heart, if he could stop it, he would have led the army to block it when he was near the gate.

Under the black sky, this cavalry of unknown origin, after breaking into the barracks, took the lead in burning the military tent, and then used the crossbow to shoot the Song army who was half-asleep or fled from the military tent in panic.

The officers and men of the whole army suffered heavy casualties in a surprise attack.

At this moment, they were fortunate to stand quietly in front of the military tent, all because Zhao Yanpu led a small number of Song troops to block in front, otherwise, the Chinese army commander's tent would have been ignited with raging fire.

When Han Junshan heard the military order, he was helpless, and he still said decisively: "General, the news collected by Yue Zhenchuan is wrong, we are confused by the Yan army, don't you see that this cavalry is not a light cavalry led by Hou Mingfeng at all,

If the general's guess is correct, Hou Mingfeng led the army to bury Mapo, but it was just a suspicious tactic, and the main force of the Yan army had already crossed the Yangtze River and returned to the north. ”

"Impossible, General Ben didn't receive the news of the Yan army crossing the river at all!" Yu Zhendong had a stubborn personality and did not agree to evacuate, and said loudly: "What about the ironclad cavalry, the whole army will gather and fight with General Ben." ”

It's a pity that as soon as Yu Zhendong finished speaking, Han Junshan's knife handle hit him on the neck, stunned Yu Zhendong, and motioned to the Song army beside him to hold up Yu Zhendong, and shouted: "Carry the general to evacuate immediately, and the general will go to block Yan Qi." ”

"Yes!" A cronie hugged his fist, said nothing, and signaled to the Song army around him to protect Yu Zhendong's evacuation.

At this time, Han Junshan quickly moved forward with a knife and walked in the direction of Yan Qi's shuttle.

He believed that no matter how chaotic the military camp was, there would always be brave soldiers in the 100,000 Song army to fight with him and block Yan Cai.
