Chapter 36: It's all Song Ruoyu?
Sure enough, when Li Dong got rid of the pursuit of the Jin army and gradually approached his own army, he saw from a distance that there were flags waving in front of him, the sound of horses' hooves, and the "yellow" and "Song" flags raised high were intertwined and horizontal, and there was chaos.
Li Dong knew in his heart that this Song Ruoyu was only afraid that he had directly attacked Huang Xiu.
Huang Xiu himself sent himself to find out the news, and he didn't have much experience in battle formations, so he would inevitably take it lightly, and naturally he couldn't imagine that this Song Ruoyu's army would avoid Li Dong and kill him directly.
Thinking of this, Li Dong gritted his teeth in his heart, and shouted at his army: "The whole army obeys the order and charges." ”
Although the three thousand iron cavalry fought a war of attrition in front, their morale was still high at this time, and after hearing Li Dong's order, they did not hesitate to rush towards the chaotic battlefield in front.
Huang Xiu was indeed panicked at this time, he was walking in a dignified manner, and suddenly Song Ruoyu's army came out from the side, which surprised him. What's even more uncomfortable is that this Song Ruoyu's army didn't even say hello to him, but killed him directly, which was different from the wars he usually understood.
Huang Xiu thought that every time the coaches of the two sides played against each other, they would say hello and chat a few words, but he heard that Lin Yi and this Song Ruoyu chatted for a while in front of the two armies, so it would be different if he changed himself.
So much so that until now, I haven't seen what this Song Ruoyu looks like.
But panic to panic, he still began to command the battle in an orderly manner under the reminder of the general beside him, and the soldiers of the Liang army quickly calmed down after experiencing the initial panic and began to start a very bloody battle with the raiding Jin army.
Jin Ge Iron Horse, blood-stained battlefield, this was a peaceful suburb of Yancheng just now, and in the blink of an eye, it became Shura's purgatory. The soldiers on both sides were merciless, gritting their teeth and brandishing their weapons to slash at the deadliest parts of the other side.
and the long sword shall pass through it shall be a scarlet; Where the iron horse passes, there will be corpses all over the field.
The soldiers of the two sides soon fought together, and in the chaos, it was impossible to distinguish who was who, and they could only vaguely judge that the two sides were currently in a scorching situation, and they could not judge who won and who lost in a short time.
Over there, Huang Xiu was worried about the situation in front of him, and suddenly saw that this Li Dong is leading the three thousand iron horsemen to run over, and he was immediately overjoyed, and hurriedly shouted on the horse: "Reinforcements have arrived, kill quickly, kill all this group of Northern Jin people." As he gritted his teeth, he kept waving the sword in his hand to show his majesty.
Liang is located in the south of the Yangtze River, and its own cavalry is small, and the cavalry of more than 50,000 soldiers is only four or five thousand, and the 3,000 cavalry led by Li Dong is now rushing back in time, which can be said to have greatly increased the combat effectiveness of his side.
The outskirts of Yancheng are mostly plains, where the cavalry can give full play to their greatest advantages, so Li Dong's 3,000 cavalry quickly joined the battle as if they were in a no-man's land, and they were unstoppable, and almost in a short period of time, they harvested the lives of hundreds of Jin troops.
Li Dong was very smart, he knew that the cavalry could never slow down in such a chaotic battle, so when he was about to rush into the battle, he would order to disperse the formation and attack the place with fewer people as much as possible, which effectively slowed down the casualties of the cavalry in his headquarters, and also made the balance of victory in the entire battle gradually tilt to the Liang army.
When Huang Xiu saw it, he was extremely excited, and he even forgot about the mistake of preparing to stay for a while to punish Li Dong for not knowing the report and being slow to reinforce, and he was also very happy at the moment, and he couldn't help but clap his hands directly on this battlefield, which made the generals under him cry and laugh.
The Liang army has the assistance of these 3,000 cavalry, then the Jin army has no such reinforcements, although they have more cavalry than the Liang army, but because they are in the chaos of the war, so the threat is greatly reduced, the conspicuous horses are like a live target, the Liang army saw it and specifically stabbed the horse, so that the cavalry of the Jin State suddenly had no deterrence, and the effect may not be as good as the ordinary foot soldiers.
After a while, this Liang army had already faintly gained the upper hand, which boosted the morale of the soldiers, and the more they killed, the more brave they became, almost wanting to annihilate this group of Jin troops here.
Li Dong was also fighting bravely to kill the enemy, but suddenly he paused, looked up at the besieged Jin army, and lowered his head and didn't know what he was thinking.
After half a ring, I saw Li Dong raise his head suddenly, as if he wanted to think of something, and galloped away in the direction of Huang Xiu.
Na Huang Xian looked proudly at this battle that was about to be won, and couldn't help but feel proud in his heart, he beat Song Ruoyu's army in his life and the first battle, which was comparable to Lin Yi's performance.
Now, the gang in the capital will be impressed with themselves, and they will no longer think of themselves as useless gentlemen.
Thinking of this, Huang Xiu laughed to himself, and immediately there was a long laugh looking up to the sky, looking so unhappy.
Li Dong galloped closer, and when he saw Huang Xiu's appearance, he didn't care about anything else, so he immediately dismounted and said, "General, the last general thinks that the Jin army is cheating." ”
When Huang Xiu heard this, he couldn't help but be stunned, and after a long while, he asked, "Is there a fraud?" What's the deception? ”
Li Dong paused, and told Huang Xiu in detail about the series of things he had just experienced, and only after he finished speaking, did he say suspiciously: "The last general originally thought that the purpose of this Jin army was to attack our army, so that group of cavalry came to drag me and didn't let me get out. ”
Seeing Huang Xiu's confused expression, although he secretly sighed in his heart, he still said now: "The last general observed this Jin army, although it was nominally under the banner of Song Ruoyu, but it seems that Song Ruoyu has not appeared until now. ”
"Moreover, looking at this Jin army, if it is the main force of the Jin army, it seems that the number is too small, and the last general is worried that Song Ruo is foolish and deceitful." After Li Dong finished speaking, he also looked at Huang Xiu with a worried face, hoping that Huang Xiu could be vigilant and not fall for Song Ruoyu's tricks.
When Huang Xiu heard Li Dong's words, he couldn't help but fall into deep thought. Although he has no actual combat experience and does not know how to use soldiers, after all, he was born into a wealthy nobleman, and he has been exposed to a lot of common sense about war since he was a child, so he also noticed that something was wrong.
Huang Xiu looked at the soldiers of the two armies who were still entangled from a distance, thought for a while, and finally made up his mind and said: "Don't worry too much, first solve this group of Northern Jin people in front of you, and then it's not too late to discuss." ”
After Li Dong listened, he arched his hand again and replied, "No." ”
Li Dong knew that he couldn't solve anything at this time, but he just hoped that he could make Huang Xiu a little more vigilant and not be overly proud because of a victory.
If Lin Yi was only afraid that he wouldn't even blink his eyelids at such a victory, let alone show his joy on his face like this.
Thinking of this, Li Dong sighed secretly in his heart again.
Immediately, he was very puzzled, if Song Ruoyu was really not in this Jin army, where would he be at this time? So what is the purpose of sending this Jin army here? Li Dong was puzzled.
With questions, just as Li Dong was about to leave Huang Xiu's side and return to the battlefield, he suddenly heard several scouts in the distance rushing towards Huang Xiu's side.
I saw that their faces were condensed, and after getting off the horse, they bowed to this Huang Xiu and immediately said, "General Yu, there is an enemy attacking from the north. ”
When Huang Xiu heard this, he was startled, and then hurriedly asked, "But the Northern Jin Dynasty?" ”
The scout hesitated and said, "Yes, the number of people in that army is not clear from a distance, but I can vaguely see the banner that is waving, and the word "Song" seems to be written on the banner. ”
After hearing this, Huang Xiu invariably glanced at this Li Dong, and he could see the astonishment in the other party's eyes.
Li Dong didn't wait for Huang Xiu to ask, and asked the scout in a loud voice: "Are you sure it's the "Song" character flag?" ”
"Absolutely." The scout didn't hesitate and replied categorically.
When Li Dong just wanted to ask something, he suddenly heard several teams of scouts coming from afar.
These scouts were originally sent out by Huang Xiu to find Li Dong when he encountered a surprise attack by the Jin army, but he didn't expect that now he has become the messenger of this order.
The scouts also had solemn expressions, and after seeing this Huang Xiu, you look at me, I look at you, and finally one of them gritted his teeth and thought that Huang Xiu reported: "General Yu, the Jin army has been found in the west." ”
"General Yu, there is a trace of the Jin army in the east."
When Huang Xiu heard this, he couldn't help but jump up from that horse, stumbled and turned over and dismounted, and asked loudly, "What?" It's all the Jin Army? ”
Seeing this, the scout knew that the situation was a little urgent, and he didn't dare to be sloppy, so he replied to Huang Xiu: "Not only the Jin army, but all the banners of the enemy army are the golden banners of the Liang State with the word "Song" written on them. ”
Hearing this, all the generals present exclaimed a few times in their hearts, and even Li Dong couldn't help but shout in a low voice in his heart: "It's all Song Ruoyu? ”
