Chapter Thirty-Six: The Battle Is Unpredictable
The anti-army retreated.
Wang Jiayin is different from King Chuang and Zhang Xianzhong, and there are many old and weak women and children in the back camp under his subordinates.
Whenever the signs of defeat are revealed, they will inevitably evacuate first, and this person is also painstaking in order to protect his subordinates in the rear camp, but he always retreats without saying hello, which often makes King Chuang and Zhang Xianzhong very annoyed.
As soon as Wang Jiayin withdrew, King Chuang and Zhang Xianzhong naturally wanted to withdraw.
But the Ming army chased and killed very tightly, King Chuang and Zhang Xianzhong knew that the battle situation was scorching at this time, and as soon as the two of them withdrew, it would inevitably be equivalent to being thrown by the back to the Ming army to swing a knife to cut.
It will be a big defeat.
So the two of them gave the order to retreat and the other to resist.
At this time, it was already late afternoon, and the weather was hot.
The Ming army continued to move forward, and the anti-army fought and retreated.
Wang Jiayin evacuated in a mighty manner.
The Sichuan army fought with the two armies of King Chuang and Zhang Xianzhong.
It was to let Henan Mingjun and Zuo Liangyu pick up the cheap.
The Henan Ming army gave up the brigade and turned its head directly to bite Wang Jiayin's army that retreated north.
In this way, the situation of the battle changed again, and the pressure on King Chuang and Zhang Xianzhong became less instantaneous, and it was easier to withdraw troops.
And Wang Jiayin saw that he was bitten by the Ming army behind him, so he had no choice but to lead the army to fight back again.
The Henan Ming army and Wang Jiayin suddenly fought together again.
Without the Sichuan army, the combat effectiveness of the Ming army in Henan suddenly weakened.
Wang Jiayin returned to the army to fight, and immediately surrounded tens of thousands of Ming troops in the sea of people.
The Ming army fought for a while, and the pressure gradually increased.
In the end, as a Ming army withdrew backwards, the Henan Ming army's strategy to take the opportunity to bite Wang Jiayin failed.
The Ming army retreated, but Wang Jiayin did not take the opportunity to go north, but took advantage of the defeat of the Ming army and waved his army to bite it again.
The battle situation changed instantly, the battlefield was divided into two units, and the two divisions of King Chuang and Zhang Xianzhong fought with the Sichuan army, constantly retreating.
And Wang Jiayin is just the opposite of the Henan Ming Army, Wang Jiayin is pressing the Henan Ming Army to fight.
Seeing that the Henan Ming army continued to retreat, it was about to impact the Sichuan army's offensive array.
Deng Xi had no choice but to send 10,000 cavalry to aid the Henan Ming army, otherwise once the other party was chased and rushed into the Sichuan army's array, it would inevitably disrupt the favorable situation of the attack in front of him, and today's big victory would become a big defeat.
Deng Xi led the cavalry to arrive, directly scuttling through the sea of anti-soldiers, and the cavalry galloped, constantly slashing and killing on both sides.
The rebel infantry dodged one after another, but let Deng Xi directly enter the rebel army.
As soon as Wang Jiayin came to kill the cavalry of the Sichuan army, he hurriedly asked Wang Ziyong to mobilize cavalry to meet the battle.
Suddenly, the anti-army cavalry began to kill Deng Xi, who had already penetrated into the army.
The two sides began to fight and intersect with horses and gallop and slash in the black pressure against the rebels.
Deng Xi's original unimpeded killing momentum was stopped by Wang Ziyong.
As soon as the speed of his cavalry dropped, he was immediately surrounded by a sea of people who rebelled.
After a period of fighting, both sides were killed and wounded, and seeing that his subordinates were constantly attrition, Deng Xi knew that he did not dare to be entangled in the anti-army formation.
Otherwise, he would be surrounded and killed by the rebels today, so he led the army to turn his horse's head and kill outside the battle.
As soon as Deng Xi fled, Wang Zi's cavalry was immediately demoralized, and they chased after him.
Wang himself chased after the front with his horse, constantly biting the Sichuan cavalry, hoping to keep them in the formation.
Seeing that the Sichuan army was about to go into battle, Wang Ziyong's face was ruthless, and he drew his knife and stabbed the war horse under him.
The war horse was in pain and accelerated again, and in an instant, the distance between Wang Ziyong and Deng Xi was shortened again.
But at the moment when Wang Ziyong was within fifty steps, Deng Xi, who was originally blindly running, turned around and was an arrow.
Heaven helps Deng Xi, Wang Ziyong was originally a monk, but at the moment it was hot and scorching, and after a while, the sweat on his head turned into beads, constantly dripping from his forehead.
When Deng Xi shot an arrow, it happened that a drop of sweat entered his eyes, and Wang Ziyong subconsciously blinked.
A return arrow had already rushed to the front of him, and he had to lean over consciously, and Wang Ziyong felt a pain in his chest, and his strength suddenly lost, and then he was dismounted by the top of the war horse, and after rolling on the ground a few times, he was silent.
Deng Xi also took the opportunity to lead his troops to fight the rebel army.
Return to your own military formation.
Deng Xi naturally didn't know that the person he shot was Wang Jiayin's most relied on general, King Zijin Liang, for his own use.
But Wang Jiayin watched Wang Zi use an arrow to fall to the ground, and was instantly shocked, and quickly ordered the army to stop the pursuit.
Wang used the arrow, which was a loss of his right hand for Wang Jiayin.
Without the brave Wang for his own use, the cavalry of the Sichuan army killed again, and the rebels could not resist it.
Wang Jiayin ordered to abandon the pursuit and withdraw his troops to the north, and at the same time let people enter the battle to find Wang for his own use and prepare for treatment.
On the other hand, when Deng Xi transferred troops to block Wang Jiayin, King Chuang and Zhang Xianzhong took advantage of the situation to counterattack again, so that the Sichuan army's attack could be stopped, and then the troops were transferred again and quickly retreated.
The two sides distanced themselves in an instant.
The war has been fought so far, and even the Sichuan army feels exhausted.
And after the Henan Ming army was chased and killed by Wang Jiayin for a while, they were already so frightened that they cowered behind the Sichuan army and did not dare to come forward.
Deng Xi led the cavalry back, and saw that the rebel army in front of him had opened a distance from the front of the Sichuan army.
I want to run up and bite again.
was stopped by the Ma couple.
The reason is naturally that the army is tired, and it is inconvenient for the anti-army to march, and it is impossible to run far for a while and a half, so it is better to rest for a while and then pursue.
Deng Xi knew that it would be difficult to leave all the rebels behind today, so he could only agree.
So he withdrew his troops back to the camp and dispatched scouts to bite the anti-army and evacuate.
A great war has come to an end.
The rebels suffered tens of thousands of casualties, the Sichuan army suffered more than 10,000 casualties, and the Henan Ming army only pursued Wang Jiayin once from beginning to end, not only did not kill or injure a few rebels, but was chased and killed by Wang Jiayin, with 5,000 dead and wounded.
In the final analysis, it was the Henan Ming Army that pulled back.
But at this time, the Sichuan army was in Henan and needed the other party's support for grain and grass, so they could only endure it.
The anti-army withdrew.
All the way to the north, I dare not stop.
This battle completely woke up the dream of several leaders to go south to occupy Henan.
At the same time, Wang Jiayin was even more heartbroken.
Because of his subordinate general Wang's own use, the famous Zijin Liang was pierced through the heart by the opponent's main general at the last moment of the battle, and he passed away.
There are not many people under Wang Jiayin who can be literate and martial, Wang Ziyong can hold up half of the country, and once Wang Ziyong dies, half of the confidence in Wang Jiayin's heart will be discharged.
So Wang Jiayin ran fast, marching day and night, taking a short rest on the way, and then going north after eating.
He also knew that if he evacuated or King Chuang and Zhang Xianzhong would withdraw quickly, he didn't want to be left behind by the two of them and eaten as meat for the Ming army.
King Chuang, Zhang Xianzhong, and Wang Jiayin are chasing me and constantly going north.
Behind him, the Ming army was biting and not letting go, constantly closing the distance, among which the Henan Ming army was the most active.
Although these people were frightened by Wang Jiayin's killing and wounding in the war, the situation was different at this time, and this was a beating of the water dogs.
Take a bite and eat a bite of meat, and retreat if the situation is not right.
The two sides chased after me, and there were more than a dozen large and small wars on the way.
July 20.
The three rebel armies were outside the city of Linxian County.
At this point, the rebels have no way out.
To the east of Linxian is Zezhou, Shanxi, and Shanxi is a place where the rebels dare not touch, because at this time Shanxi has been fully occupied by Tangxidong, and to the north must be dumplings by the Jingshi army of Shunde Mansion and Daimyo's Mansion of the Tun Army.
To the west, it is the same as the territory of the Daimyofu.
To the south, it was the Henan Ming army and the Sichuan army that were in hot pursuit.
At this moment, the rebels are in ambush on all sides, with nowhere to go.
For now, we still have to go south.
It is best to bypass the Ming army, but if you can't bypass, you will divide your troops and find another way.
The rebels were cornered.
This is a difficult situation that Shaanxi has never encountered since the rise of the anti-army.
