I have to say that Chai Kehong's timing of the attack was very good, and Qian Wenfeng was sitting in the front again, so he didn't get the news in time. Qian Chengli, the www.biquge.info of the pen "Fun" Pavilion, was in the rear, and was intercepted and killed halfway by the people arranged by Chai Kehong.

Wu Yuejun did not make effective resistance, they were like lambs to be slaughtered, the more they ran around, the faster they died, many soldiers even lost their way and rolled into the canal, in such a cold weather, falling into the canal, their clothes were quickly soaked by the icy river water, and became heavy, even if they were good swimmers, it was difficult to climb ashore, not to mention the bank of the canal, slippery and slippery, the hands kept slipping, and they couldn't climb ashore at all. The icy river water quickly took away their body temperature, and they struggled at first, and in less than a stick of incense, Wu Yuebing, who had fallen into the water, fell into the water.

"Qian Wenfeng is dead, and you still won't surrender?" In the chaos of the army, Chai Kehong shouted, and his voice was loud.

When the Tang Army Iron Cavalry heard this, he shouted loudly while killing people, and the voice of Qian Wenfeng's death came and went.

At night, Wu Yuejun did not know the truth and was attacked again, and many people thought that Qian Wenfeng had died in battle. The impact of the commander's death in battle was obviously enormous, and more and more soldiers joined the ranks of the fleeing, including some of the capitalists, who ran wildly in the night, but unfortunately their eyesight was poor, and the soldiers clashed with each other, trampled on each other, and died even more.

Wu Yuejun's soldiers had only one thought in their hearts, that is, to flee quickly, but the more they wanted to escape, the more difficult it was to escape. Although the cavalry of the Tang army was small, it was strong in combat, and if it hit one Wu Yue soldier, more Wu Yue soldiers would fall, causing a series of reactions.

The chaos of Wu Yuejun gradually spread to the front, just like a terrible plague, Wu Yuejun passed two and two passed three, and the soldiers did not understand the situation in the dark night, thinking that the commander was really killed in battle, and suddenly the front army also fell into a panic.

"Report! The rear Tang Army iron cavalry is coming! Qian Wenfeng was in front of the Chinese army, and when he was surprised why the rear was so chaotic, a cavalry rushed to tell him.

When Qian Wenfeng heard this, he was taken aback, the Tang army was coming, and he expected it, so he arranged for his second son Qian Chengli to be on guard in the rear wing, 3,000 foot soldiers, in addition to more than 50 cavalry and a large number of scouts, even if the Tang army was killed, it was impossible for Qian Chengli to get the news?

Now that the rear wing of the Chinese army is in chaos, can it be said that the second son has died on the battlefield? Qian Wenfeng frowned, his expression was a little sad, but he knew that this was not the time to be sad, he had to cheer up and return to Suzhou smoothly with his subordinates.

Qian Wenfeng immediately asked people to appease the soldiers, and sent his henchmen to light torches, as long as the surroundings were bright, the soldiers suffering from finch eyes could regain their sight and fight. Qian Wenfeng believed that although the Tang army was chasing, it must be cavalry, and it was difficult for the foot soldiers to catch up with him.

The number of cavalry in the Tang army is not large, and it is very clear that he is fighting with the Tang army these days, so as long as he holds it, the Tang army will be able to return in vain. Moreover, the Tang army is a cavalry, once the foot soldier chooses to escape, how can he outrun the war horse?

Qian Wenfeng quickly made a decision, and more than 500 henchmen and soldiers formed a phalanx, and at this time, the front army was not yet chaotic to the point of being uncontrollable, so the phalanx was quickly formed. The torches around me were lit, and the sight was clear. Qian Wenfeng rode on a war horse, and his soldiers behind him held a big flag, on which was a big word "money".

Qian Wenfeng couldn't panic at this time, in the cold wind, he stood in the center like a big banner, the strong wind blew his hair and whiskers drifted back, scraping on his face, faintly painful, Qian Wenfeng couldn't help coughing twice, such weather, although it was in Jiangnan, it was still a little cold.

In the rear of the Chinese army, Chai Kehong was slashing and killing, and the war horses were constantly rushing forward to kill, whether it was a warrior or a war horse, the consumption of physical strength was very large. After chasing and killing more than three miles, I don't know how many Wu Yuejun soldiers were killed, Wu Yuejun's corpses could be seen everywhere on the ground, and the air was filled with the smell of blood, which made people sick.

The Tang soldiers were excited to kill, and after accumulating horsepower for a period of time, they continued to fight, but the speed was much slower. Wu Yuejun is still running frantically, and it is initially estimated that at least three or four hundred people were killed in this battle, and as for Wu Yuejun, there were probably no less than 1,000 people who trampled on each other and fell into the water and died.

Chai Kehong chased for nearly five miles and killed more than a hundred people, at this time, he found the phalanx of Wu Yuejun, there is no doubt that this must be Qian Wenfeng's command position, in such a situation, Qian Wenfeng can still stand firm, Chai Kehong was a little surprised.

Now that Qian Wenfeng is here, Chai Kehong suddenly has the ambition to make greater contributions, if he can kill Wu Yueguo's envoy to the Zhongwu Festival, this merit will be great. Chai Kehong licked his chapped lips and gave a few orders, and the Tang Army's iron cavalry fanned out and drove the fleeing Wu Yue Army soldiers towards the middle.

In the phalanx, Qian Wenfeng pursed his lips tightly, who was the general of the Tang Army leading the troops? The famous tiger fighter Zhou Ye? Or Chai Kehong, the son of Yang Wu's famous general Chai Zayong? When Qian Wenfeng was thinking about it, the Tang army had already gathered the soldiers of the Wu Yue army who had no desire to fight, and drove them to the Wu Yue army formation like cattle and sheep.

"Despicable!" Qian Wenfeng scolded secretly in his heart, but he also knew in his heart that if it were him, he would also use this method.

"Qian Jiedu, what should I do?" A soldier asked nervously.

Qian Wenfeng pursed his lips, his expression was very serious, time waited for no one, he didn't have much time to think, the rout was only more than a hundred steps away from the main formation, and he had to make a decision.

"Tell them, don't panic, the rout will go to both sides, if you directly impact the main formation, there will be no forgiveness!" Qian Wenfeng is still very decisive.

The soldier was stunned for a moment, and soon nodded again, he also knew that the situation was critical now, so he immediately gave the order. But the military order is useless at all, the defeated army is bent on fleeing for their lives, where can they take care of the east, west, north and south? What's more, there are Tang Army iron cavalry chasing behind them, and the shouts of the soldiers in the phalanx are useless to them.

The distance was close, and the soldiers in the phalanx could even hear the shouts of the robes, the snorts of the Tang Army's iron horses, these soldiers looked a little nervous, they were all Qian Wenfeng's henchmen, and they knew what fate would greet them once the phalanx was broken.

The torches shone all around, there was actually a little warmth in the cold wind, sweat broke out on his forehead, and the crossbowmen silently calculated the distance, seventy steps, sixty steps, fifty steps. When the rout reached a distance of forty paces, the crossbowmen's arms trembled slightly.

Qian Wenfeng stared at the front, this was a difficult choice, he could only bet, when the rout was only more than twenty steps away from the phalanx, Qian Wenfeng gave the order, the crossbowmen shot arrows, and the rout fell one after another, either dead or wounded, and there were more and more corpses, gradually piled up in front of the phalanx.

Chai Kehong narrowed his eyes, he couldn't imagine that Qian Wenfeng was so decisive, more and more routed soldiers were shot, blocked near the phalanx, and it was difficult for the cavalry to cross over. Chai Kehong did not choose to attack, but kept rushing to the rout to send him to death. There were more and more dead bodies, and the crossbowmen of the phalanx did not know how many arrow feathers they had shot, their arms were sore, and when the arrow feathers were about to run out, the Tang army suddenly retreated.

Qian Wenfeng didn't dare to move, he was afraid that the Tang army would have some tricks, and after half an hour, under the darkness of the night, another cavalry finally came.

"Ready!" Qian Wenfeng said in a hoarse voice. In this battle, he really lost a lot, the situation at night was unknown, and he didn't know how many people died. The sound of horses' hooves grew louder and louder, and the arms of the crossbowmen were raised again, and they took out their few arrow feathers, ready to fight.

"Your own people, don't shoot arrows." A voice rang out.

Qian Wenfeng's body was shocked, and tears almost flowed out, this is his son's voice, Qian Chengli is not dead! Qian Wenfeng suddenly became excited, and said in a lost voice: "Is it a ceremony?" ”

"Dad, it's me!" Qian Chengli rushed all the way and rushed over, and behind him, there were more than a dozen cavalrymen, all covered in blood. Although Qian Chengli was ambushed, but after all, there were many people, and he was very vigilant, after sensing the ambush of the Tang army, Qian Chengli immediately commanded the soldiers to repel the ambush, and on the way, he encountered a group of Tang army ambushes, losing more than 20 people, and finally rushed over.

Qian Wenfeng nodded silently, his son was safe, but the loss of tens of thousands of troops really made him extremely painful.

After the two fathers and sons met, they exchanged news, and couldn't help but sigh, Tang Jun's vigilance exceeded his expectations, it seems that among the Tang Army, not only Yang Lian will fight, but there are still many generals in the Tang Dynasty, but who is the person who led the troops to pursue tonight? Until now it was not clear to them.

In the night, Qian Wenfeng did not move again, but kept waiting, he was afraid that if he left, it would be difficult for the phalanx to be formed without the guard of the baggage car. At this time, the rout still fled in all directions, until dawn, when many of the rout found that there were no pursuers, and then lay on the ground to rest. Many soldiers lay down and never got up.

Qian Wenfeng sent scouts to check and found that the Tang army had indeed retreated, so he collected the routs and gradually retreated to Suzhou, and when he arrived in Suzhou, preliminary statistics showed that he was ambushed at night, and the losses were at least more than 5,000 people, and the missing soldiers were about 20,000 people, due to chaos, this is only an approximate value. Qian Wenfeng sent people around to collect the defeated troops and appease the army, and there was still a big battle to be fought next.

Although the weather is cold, but the northeast wind gave Yang Lian favorable conditions, Yang Lian quickly transported a group of soldiers from Haichu and Chu Prefectures to the south, with the wind, it only took seven days, in just seven days, it can be said that the wind and clouds have changed abruptly, on the one hand, Yang Lian got the news of Jinling, His Majesty was very pleased with his victory, and told him that he must fight this battle well.

However, in view of the war in Changzhou, the Son of Heaven did not give him much support, Yang Lian could only mobilize men and horses from the prefectures and counties under his jurisdiction, and the soldiers and horses from all over Shandong could not be mobilized, but could only be mobilized from Haichu and Haichu Prefectures, which was limited in number.

The soldiers of Haichu and Chu Prefecture arrived in Zhoushan, making Yang Lian's infantry more than 10,000 people, which is not much, but the sea control has been controlled by Yang Lian. On the Hangzhou side, the sailors who still had a certain strength did not take the initiative to attack, and Yang Lian guessed that Qian Hongyu wanted to ensure that there was a sufficient threat fleet in Hangzhou, and it was most advantageous for him to temporarily take the defensive.

The scouts sent by Yang Lian to Mingzhou to inquire about the news also came with the news, in Mingzhou, Wu Yueguo urgently recruited soldiers and recruited a group of farmers to enlist in the army, and the number of soldiers guarding Mingzhou reached as many as 5,000, but the combat effectiveness of such soldiers can be imagined.

Yang Lian made a decisive decision to attack the Mingzhou Naval Division. After a fierce battle, the only twelve remaining warships of the Mingzhou Navy Division were either sunk or captured, and the Tang Army Navy Division occupied the Mingzhou Water Village. After two days of transport, 10,000 soldiers landed on the shore. Yang Lian led his troops directly to Mingzhou.

Mingzhou Assassin Shi Pan Xianyan got the news, did not dare to slack off, personally led the troops to the city to inspect, saw the Tang army like a dark cloud, Pan Xianyan's heart sank to the bottom, he didn't know how much support Hangzhou could give him, but Mingzhou must not be lost. Perhaps, he wants to learn from Yu An to sacrifice his life for the country?

Hangzhou, Qian Hongyu's face was solemn, this year seemed to be very unpleasant, Wu Yueguo's war in all aspects was very unsmooth, first Zhoushan was lost, which triggered the retreat of Changzhou. He knew that the envoy of Zhongwu Jiedu had led the troops for many years, and he had the style of a father, even if he retreated, he would make arrangements, but he was still chased and killed by the Tang army, and there were many casualties.

Qian Wenfeng's defeat, even if the losses were not much, was the biggest blow to morale. What should I do? Qian Hongyu didn't pay attention.

Wu Cheng, the secretary of the military department, walked in quickly, handed him a military report with a solemn face, and said: "King, the Tang army has defeated the Mingzhou Navy Division and landed in Mingzhou. ”

Qian Hongyu shook his fingers, and took the military newspaper tremblingly, but he didn't dare to open it to see, what could he do if he opened it, could he change this fact?

"Wu Shangshu, why teach me?" Qian Hongyu spoke, not noticing that his voice was already trembling. Although Wu Yueguo said that his national strength was not as good as that of Datang, he did not suffer much loss from the confrontation between the two countries in the past, and today's situation made him really anxious.

Wu Cheng frowned, thought about it carefully, and after a moment, hesitated and said, "Weichen has a sentence, I don't know if I should say it or not." ”

"When is it, Wu Shangshu, just say it." Qian Hongyu said.

"The king, Wu Yue fought with the Tang Dynasty, and the turning point of the matter was in Zhoushan, in Yang Lian. This person, according to Lao Chen's research, is particularly fond of surprise soldiers. Now he occupies Zhoushan, controls the sea control, and the soldiers and horses have also arrived in Mingzhou. Wu Cheng said.

Qian Hongyu frowned, thinking to himself Isn't what you said nonsense, I know all this.

Wu Cheng said again: "King, now that Wu Yueguo has lost a lot of good generals, the old minister thinks that it is time to invite Hu Shangshu out of the mountain." ”

"You mean Hu Jinsi?" Qian Hongyu was a little puzzled, this old man was over ninety years old, what could he do?

Wu Cheng nodded and said, "Your Majesty, Hu Shangshu has led troops for many years and has rich experience. Now Wu Yue does not lack people who dare to fight, but lacks a good general who can lead troops to fight, although Hu Shangshu is old, but Jiang is still old and spicy, maybe he can resist the enemy outside the country. ”

Qian Hongyu was stunned when he heard this, could it be that at this time, he could only choose him? But thinking of that incident, Qian Hongyu's heart was very uneasy. (To be continued.) )
