Chapter 169: Defeat Xue Ju and Surrender Huo Jun
"Kill~"
"Ahh~"
The fierce shouting and killing resounded throughout the night sky, and at the camp of Xue Jujun, 10 miles away from Jiuzhi Town, a group of black-armored cavalry killed under the light of the firelight, and the roaring sound of iron hooves almost wanted to overturn the entire land, like a torrent of black steel swept towards Xue Jujun's camp row by row.
"Run!"
"Run!"
Faced with the overwhelming cavalry cluster, the unprepared soldiers of Xue Jujun suddenly blew up the battalion, and scattered in panic one by one, trying to avoid the cavalry's attack.
Thundered~
The dense array of spears emitted a cold and cold light, and the rushing cavalry sounded the horn of death on the ground.
Rows of cavalry rushed through, and countless fleeing Xue Jujun soldiers fell under the sharp gun array, trampled by the war horses, their limbs flew and blood flowed, and the camp was in a mess where they passed, leaving only a scream and a faint moan.
"The army marches forward!"
Among the rushing cavalry, Yue Zhongqi was dressed in heavy armor, running in front of the horse, the blood had stained the armor red, the spear in his hand was constantly waving, and he kept shouting loudly while running, leading the cavalry to the main tent in the center of the camp to kill.
The 10,000 cavalry were divided into two teams, and under the leadership of Yue Zhongqi and He Basheng, they were like two sharp scimitars, going around the left and right sides of the camp and penetrating into the heart of Xue Jujun.
Wherever the army passed along the way, there was no moment of hindrance, and all the soldiers of Xue Jujun who dared to stop them became the ghosts of their guns under the iron hooves.
"General! Can't stop it, let's get out of here! ”
Outside the main tent of the Chinese army in the center of the camp, looking at the soldiers who fell in pieces under the sweep of the steel torrent in the camp, one of the captains beside Xue Ju had a look of fear on his face, and saw that the cavalry was getting closer and closer to the position of the main tent, and couldn't help but persuade Xue Ju.
At this time, behind Xue Ju, thousands of soldiers had already gathered under the summons of dozens of generals.
"Retreat? There is no way back! ”
Looking at the rushing cavalry, a trace of determination flashed in Xue Ju's eyes, and he gently grasped the hilt of the sword at his waist and muttered in a low voice.
Before Xue Ju's words fell, his right hand suddenly pulled out the long sword and slashed towards the adjutant's neck.
He muttered in a low voice, and as soon as he finished speaking, he drew the long sword from his waist and slashed it to the right.
"General ,,,, Army ,,,"
In the captain's incredulous eyes, a line of blood appeared on his erect neck, and then quickly expanded, countless blood gushed out, and his body slowly fell backwards.
"Our army will win this battle, and if there is anyone who retreats, kill!"
Armed with a long sword, Xue Ju jumped on his horse, swept over the soldiers around him with a grim face, and shouted loudly.
"Kill!"
Under Xue Ju's prestige, the surrounding generals who were originally shaken were all in a hurry, and the pikemen stepped forward to form a row of spear formations, following behind Xue Ju to meet the cavalry who were killing.
"Kill!"
"Ahh~"
The galloping war horse and the gun array collided violently together, the sharp spear penetrated the body of the war horse without hesitation, but the corpse of the war horse and the heavily armored knight on the horseback still hit the Xue Jujun military array, and countless spears were broken under the impact of the powerful impact, and the Xue Jujun soldiers in the front row were directly killed and disabled.
The first wave of these attacks was a thousand heavy cavalry under the command of the Southern Army, although these heavy cavalry horses were not armored, but the armor on the knights also weighed dozens of catties, and the five armies were equipped with a certain number of such heavy cavalry, which were specially used to impact the enemy's military formation.
The horses' hooves roared, swords and spears danced, and the thousands of troops who had just been inspired by Xue Ju quickly turned into powder under the impact of the heavy cavalry, and the pikemen in the front row turned into a rain of blood one by one under the impact of the iron cavalry.
The 1,000-strong heavy cavalry was divided into five teams and took turns to attack Xue Jujun's military formation, and the fragile spear defense line was quickly torn through countless holes.
"Kill!"
As soon as the attack of the heavy cavalry passed, the light cavalry of the follow-up brigade immediately followed, and the gaps torn in the army formation continued to expand, and countless Southern cavalry swarmed in, and finally directly crushed the entire army formation.
Flesh and blood are intertwined, and the battlefield is a mess.
Just when Yue Zhongqi concentrated his forces to encircle and annihilate Xue Ju, He Batsheng on the north side of the camp was also leading the cavalry to constantly clash back and forth on the battlefield, dividing and hunting, and the hunting method that the grassland cavalry was best at was constantly staged on the battlefield.
"The Xue family is finished!"
On the hillside not far from Xue Jujun's camp, Huo Jun, who was in armor, stood at the head of the slope surrounded by several generals, and hundreds of cavalry behind him were waiting at the foot of the slope, Huo Jun looked at the chaotic camp below under the cavalry raid and whispered.
The plain is the death place of the infantry, and the camp where Xue Jujun is located is an open flat land, how can he block the surprise attack of tens of thousands of cavalry under a sudden attack, and it is only a matter of time before he is defeated.
Since the two armies were nearly 10 miles apart, when Huo Jun got the news and rushed to him, the situation on the battlefield was already doomed.
"General, what shall we do?"
Looking at the miserable Xue Jujun camp below, Huo Jun's deputy general Gao Ling on the side said with a shocked face.
He was really shocked by the combat effectiveness of the cavalry of the Southern Army, more than 20,000 Xue Ju's army was smashed into pieces in less than half an hour, even the long-trained guards under Huo Jun probably did not have this strength.
And this is only one of the five armies under the command of Sima Yu, the king of the south, and the strength of the entire southern palace can be imagined.
"Let's go, it's too late if you don't leave!"
Huo Jun had a calm face and looked to the right, and at the foot of the mountain, a group of cavalry was already faintly visible slowly gathering, those were the scout cavalry of the Southern Army who were rushing to kill, and they had already discovered the whereabouts of Huo Jun and others.
However, because the war had not stopped, they had not yet launched an attack before they had found out the truth of Huo Jun.
Now that the overall situation has been decided, the attitude with the forces of the Southern King is not clear, and Huo Jun does not dare to act rashly.
Soon, the group disappeared into the night under the gaze of a group of Southern Army scouts.
The battle in the camp did not change because of the departure of Huo Jun and the others, and the battle ended after lasting more than one hour.
In this battle, under the leadership of Yue Zhongqi, 10,000 cavalry of the Southern Army raided the camp of Xue Jujun at night, killing more than 6,000 enemies, capturing more than 16,000 soldiers, and the enemy's main general Xue Ju was captured. Early in the morning of the second day, Xue Rengao, who was captured in Bailu City, was also publicly beheaded in the city, and the forces of the Xue family and his son, who had just stirred up a wave in the land of Jinzhou, became a thing of the past.
Pedal Pedal Pedal ~
In the early morning of May 4, the third year of the Great Controversy, on the plain outside the nine towns, the flags covered the sky, the guns and halberds were like a forest, 40,000 soldiers of the Southern Army dressed in black armor formed countless phalanxes, the infantry was in front, the crossbowmen were behind, the cavalry was cruising on both wings, and the dense military formations were overlapping and overlapping, neatly arranging and advancing forward, and when there were still thousands of kilometers away from the nine towns, a thick coercion had been dispersed.
"Let's go!"
On the tower of the nine towns, looking at the 40,000 troops who were in formation below, Chao Gai shook his head bitterly, glanced lightly at Du Yong and the others not far away, and whispered to Huo Jun.
I'm afraid they already expected this to be today! Chao Gai knew it in his heart.
On the city wall of Jiuzhi Town, Huo Jun and the 15,000 elite Liangshan army under his command were waiting on the city wall, ready for battle.
After seeing the ferocious combat power of the cavalry of the Southern Army, Huo Jun did not dare to support the camp after returning to the camp, and led the army to retreat into the nine towns that night.
"Yes!"
Huo Jun couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief when he heard this, the 40,000 southern troops outside the city came with the might of the great victory over Xue Jujun's army, and its momentum was unstoppable, Huo Jun was really a little afraid that Chao Gai would be angry for a while, so that his sons and daughters would die in vain.
Immediately, the white flag was raised at the head of the nine towns, and the city gate was wide open to welcome the southern army into the city.
In the face of the great military might of the Southern Army, Chao Gai completely lost the last trace of illusion in his heart, and led 15,000 Huo Jun troops to ask Li Mu to surrender, and the two counties of Bailu and Yangshi under the rule of the Liangshan Army officially ushered in a new master, and the two counties were divided into 5 counties, and the officials of each county were selected by the assessment of the Southern Palace.
