"My lord! I just received the news that Qin Liangyu of Dongliu Town has broken through! ”

On the tall sailor flagship, Wu Song handed a letter recording the news to Sima Yu and reported respectfully. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info

In last night's battle, with the help of Sima Yu and his team, Huang Jingtian commanded his guard battalion to capture the Wayaogou Pass in one fell swoop, killing more than 800 slave troops defending the city, capturing thousands of people, and the rest were scattered.

Among them, in the fierce battle on the city wall, the enemies in the hands of Sima Yu, Wutu Gu, and Wu Song alone were more than 100 people.

In the siege battle, the Guards Battalion also lost nearly 400 men, especially the successive waves of rolling stone attacks caused a large number of casualties to the Guards.

After two hours of fierce fighting, the Guards Battalion wiped out the 2,000 slave troops guarding the Wayaogou Pass in one fell swoop, and occupied this strategic fortress, successfully cutting off the retreat of the Nikan army.

After taking Wayaogou Pass, Sima Yu did not stop, and after a short rest, only 1,000 soldiers of the Guards Battalion were left to guard the Wayaogou Pass and the captured slave army, and he led the remaining 2,000 soldiers of the Guards Battalion to set off again on the second day.

Together with Yu Dayou's sailors, they went straight to Banqiaochang by the Changxi River in the north of Banqiao Town, and Qin Liangyu's army was besieged in the mountains and forests north of Banqiaochang.

"Oh? Let me see! ”

Sima Yu was immediately surprised when he heard this, and hurriedly took the letter in Wu Song's hand and browsed it.

The reason why he came in such a hurry after taking the Wayaogou Pass was that he was afraid that Qin Liangyu's army would not be able to hold on, after all, it had been 5 days since Qin Liangyu's army was besieged, and thousands of people were besieged on this hill, and just eating and drinking was enough to drag them down.

The letter was sent by Gu Changfeng, and it recorded the details in detail.

Since the end of the battle of Shiti Village four days ago, Gu Changfeng did not stop at Shiti Village for the slightest, and immediately led the army to escort the 7,000 soldiers of the Thirty-two Village Alliance back to Shiyuan Village, where Zang Xu, the defender of Dongliu Town, who received the news, had already led the army to wait there.

After handing over the 7,000 captives to Zang Xu and transferring them to Guoyuan in Qilin County, Gu Changfeng led the army out again, all the way to Banqiao Town to kill.

At this time, Nikan, who got the news, immediately ordered the deputy capital Bahrain to lead 6 Niu Lu cavalry to stop it.

Who knows, Gu Changfeng, who had already arranged a large number of secret agents in Jumei County, did not fight with Bahrain at all, but instead attacked Gutomba, Shangoutou, Xinzhen, Longbao Village and other places one after another.

Due to the combat power shown by Gu Changfeng's army in the battle of Shiti Village and the suspicious array along the way, Mintai has always been very cautious, although he has been leading nearly 2,000 iron cavalry to follow Gu Changfeng's army, he did not dare to advance, and he did not seize the opportunity to fight Gu Changfeng at all.

After the supply of grain and grass was interrupted, Mintai lost his mind a little, and led the army to follow closely all the way, but Gu Changfeng found the opportunity to design an ambush outside Taojia Town, losing more than 500 people.

Defeated, Bahrain did not dare to attack again, so he had to lead his troops back to Banqiao Town to join Nikan.

And just when Bahrain led the army and chased Gu Changfeng, the 5,000 soldiers of the Shaking Mountain Battalion led by Li Yanzhang were also sent to Jumei County by the navy and landed in Banqiaochang.

As soon as the army landed, Nikan arrived at Banqiao Field with 1,000 iron cavalry and 8,000 slave troops.

In the face of the surging enemy army, Li Yanzhang ordered the army to form a formation on the spot and deal with it calmly.

After a fierce battle, the imposing Nikan did not escape to the benefit in the hands of Li Yanzhang, and was repelled by the long-trained Shaking Mountain Battalion, with 8,000 slave troops killed in the battle, and 1,000 Eight Banner Iron Cavalry also killed more than 300 people.

Because of his concern for the powerful impact and mobility of the Eight Banners Iron Cavalry, Li Yanzhang did not dare to order the pursuit, otherwise the 8,000 slave troops would probably have to be explained here.

However, although the First World War repelled the Nikan army, the Shaking Mountain battalion also suffered more than 400 casualties.

After the First World War, Nikan led the army back to Banqiao Town, and Li Yanzhang led his army to Pingluo Village outside Banqiao Field, camped according to the topography of Pingluo Village, and waited for news from Sima Yu's side.

The successive defeats caused the morale of the Nikan army to be slightly weakened, especially the continuous attacks of Gu Changfeng's army cut off most of the Nikan army's food and grass supply sources, and greatly frustrated the morale of the Qing army.

Just when the Nikan army was losing ground and hesitated slightly, Gu Changfeng finally sent someone to break through the blockade of the Qing army and pass the news to Qin Liangyu, who was trapped on the mountain.

Qin Liangyu, who got the news, decisively seized the opportunity and led 1,800 white pole soldiers to break through from the west in the middle of the night yesterday.

When Nikan led 3,000 iron cavalry to chase to the junction of Tongzi Village and Banqiaochang, Gu Changfeng and Li Yanzhang had already led their troops to wait there to meet Qin Liangyu's army.

Seeing this, Nikan was afraid of being ambushed, so he had to lead the army back, and Gu Changfeng and Li Yanzhang also slowly escorted Qin Liangyu's army to retreat to Pingluo Village.

At this point, after this series of battles, Qin Liangyu's army finally got out of trouble, and together with Gu Changfeng's army and Li Yanzhang's Shaoshan battalion, a total of 10,000 people gathered in Pingluo Village, waiting for Sima Yu's news.

"Okay, Changfeng and Yanzhang really don't live up to expectations, order the whole army, speed up the voyage, we must rush to Banqiao Field to meet them as soon as possible"

After reading the letter in his hand, Sima Yu was overjoyed and immediately ordered, his tone full of confidence and heroism.

"Yes, my lord!"

Hearing this, Yu Dayou bowed down and took the order.

"The whole army is moving faster!"

With the issuance of the military order, the advance of the army has increased again, and at the current speed, it is likely that they will arrive at Itabashi in less than half an hour.

Now, after this series of blows, the situation of superiority and disadvantage between Sima Yu and the Nikan army has completely changed.

Sima Yujun, who occupied Wayaogou Pass and the surrounding villages and towns of Banqiao Town, had completely cut off the supply of grain and grass to the Nikan army, and the Nikan army, which had lost the source of grain and grass supply, had no way to retreat.

Once the Nikan army received the news of the fall of Wayaogou Pass, it was bound to quickly lead the army to a decisive battle with Sima Yujun, and only by defeating Sima Yujun could they have any hope of survival, otherwise what awaited them was only destruction.

Therefore, the decisive battle is coming soon, and Sima Yu must rush to Pingluo Village before the Nikan army launches a decisive battle, and he can't wait to start a decisive battle with the Nikan army.

Originally, Sima Yu, who took the initiative at this time, did not need to rush to a decisive battle with the Nikan army, as long as he could not hold out, relying on the mobility of the guards cavalry to drag the Nikan army to death.

However, Sima Yu didn't want the war to drag on, because the longer the war dragged on, the Qing army in a desperate situation would inevitably frantically plunder and destroy the surrounding villages and towns, and it was even more likely that he would lead troops to attack Dongliu Town, and the greater the damage caused to the entire southeast of Jumei County, which he did not want to see.

Moreover, once these Qing troops are allowed to wander around, the territory of Jumei County, which is densely covered with mountains and forests, will become a long-term hidden danger, and it will be difficult to completely eradicate it.

Therefore, Sima Yu refused to give up the opportunity in front of him once and for all.

The most important thing is that with the soldiers and horses in his hands, Sima Yu is confident that he will defeat the Nikan army in one fell swoop.
