Chapter 376: Bright Sword Spirit
Zhang Zhiqi pondered, since the enemy had retreated to the Great and Small Ling River, then his idea of conquering the Great Ling River Fort and relying on it to meet the enemy naturally failed, and now their horsepower was almost exhausted, and Haoge was behind them, and they would have to be caught up sooner or later.
The current situation can be described as extremely critical.
Fang Yichen was surprised: "Zhang Dudu, why are there only so few people left around you, could it be that the others have all died in battle?" ”
Zhang Zhiqi said: "That's not it, everyone else should have withdrawn to Jinzhou." The two hundred horsemen around me are used to attract the main force of Hauge. To tell you the truth, Brother Fang, the enemy's cavalry is chasing after us right now, and it may be imminent in an instant, and we can now say that we are under the enemy in front and behind, and there is no way to escape. ”
Fang Yichen snorted and said, "Really? Since this is the case, then why don't the enemy fight to the death, let Jianyu know that our Daming Erlang is not all cowards who run away. ”
"Well said!" Zhang Zhiqi was infected by his pride, and said loudly, "Since you can't go, then fight to the death with the enemy, the eldest husband is just dead, how can you be scared by the Tartar?" ”
Fang Yichen said with a smile: "Okay, just let you and me join forces to kill him with a river of blood, even if he dies in battle, he will have to pull Haoge as a backing." ”
At this time, a cavalryman beside them suddenly said: "Dudu, I am a person here, and I am very familiar with the terrain in this area," pointing to the west, "There is a Lijiatun not far from there, there are hillsides on three sides, and there is only one entrance to enter the tunzi, maybe we can block the enemy there, maybe we can stop the enemy there, maybe ......"
"Oh?" Zhang Zhiqi raised his eyebrows, now that they are running out of horsepower, they can only be slaughtered in the field, if they can really avoid that tunzi, maybe they can really hold on.
So he nodded and said to the cavalryman: "Yes, your suggestion is very good, let's do it." ”
After that, he quickly passed the order to go, let the cavalry lead the way, and everyone followed him to Lijiatun to set up defenses first, and he took twenty horsemen to break the rear.
Fang Yichen was very puzzled by this, and asked him: "Zhang Dudu, what do you mean by this, why do you want to stay here and not go with them?" ”
Zhang Zhiqi said with a smile: "The soldiers are not tired of cheating, I always have to delay Haoge for a while and give the soldiers a little time to prepare." Then he rode his horse up the high slope beside the road, and cried, "Come with me." ”
More than a dozen people followed him, rode up the high slope, and just arrived at the top of the slope, only to see the south gate dusty, and hundreds of vanguard cavalry with yellow flags were out of sight.
The hundreds of cavalry obviously also saw the Ming cavalry on the high slope, and the horses slowed down, approaching this side, and soon came to a short distance down the slope.
But they didn't seem to have any scruples, and instead of rushing up directly, they stopped at the bottom of the slope, and several generals led by them gathered together to discuss, and they didn't know what they were talking about.
Soon, a large force of the enemy's cavalry caught up, densely packed, forming a fan-shaped encirclement under the hillside. Immediately after that, a group of horses came out and came to the front of the team, which was the coach of the red flag, Hauge.
The loss of the right guard, the burning of millions of stones, grain and grass, and the flight of most of the slaves and auxiliaries, all of which have made Hao Ge red-eyed, and he has long been not as calm as before, and now he sees Zhang Zhiqi and others provocatively standing on the top of the slope, thinking only of completely annihilating this Ming cavalry, Yixue has hatred in his heart, and at the same time, he is also good at giving his Laozi Emperor Taiji.
However, just as he was about to order the cavalry to rush up the hillside, he saw a sudden cavalry from the Ming army coming towards the slope where they were.
The Ming army's unusual behavior surprised them all, and many of the cavalry bent their bows and arrows to aim at the rider, who would be shot into a hedgehog at the slightest command.
Haoge was puzzled, what kind of trouble was the Ming army doing?
Could it be that they are dying, and they plan to send someone to negotiate with them and surrender Dajin?
If that's the case, maybe you can talk to them, after all, recruiting the most elite Guan Ning Iron Cavalry in the Ming army is also a great achievement, and it can also reduce his sins, at least in front of him Lao Tzu has a chance to make up for his mistakes.
While they were thinking about it, the rider on the other side spoke to them and said in a loud voice: "The governor of my house has something to say to Haugbele." ”
Although the other party named and wanted to talk to him, he still didn't dare to come forward, and shouted to the rider in a sandwich Chinese dialect from a distance of more than ten zhang: "I'm Haoge, who are you all governors?" If he is willing to surrender to our Daikin, I can guarantee that he will continue to be a senior official in our court. ”
When the rider heard this, he laughed out loud and said: "My family Zhang Zhiqi Dudu said that when he was in the Ming Dynasty, he heard for a long time that Haoge Belle was the head of all the young warriors, and he learned martial arts and swords and guns since he was a child, and he was the best of the younger generation. However, Zhang Dudu thinks that your sword riding and archery is just the skin of my Ming martial arts, and the status of master and apprentice has been concluded as early as the Song Dynasty. If Baylor cherishes the glory of the warrior and goes out of the camp, Zhang Dudu is willing to use the sword to formally duel with you, and Zhang Dudu uses the honor of the soldier to vouch for it, if you are defeated by your sword, you can lead the army to surrender to your troops; If your Excellency is defeated, then please remove the siege and let us go. ”
When Hauge heard this, he was puzzled and laughed - heads-up? What kind of fame is this governor doing, couldn't his brain have been kicked by a donkey?
This is a confrontation between the two armies, and it is not a single fight, and the other party actually wants to duel with him alone, which is really an unbelievable idea.
Although Haoge is also good at martial arts, but at this time, he doesn't want to fight alone with the other party, there are many horses on their side, the other side is only a thousand people, and his own side is four times as much as the other party, and the field front, even if it is the most elite Guanning iron cavalry in the Ming army, has never been curry favor in front of the big golden iron cavalry.
Therefore, at this time, he completely disdained this kind of challenge, but said patiently to the rider: "Ben Baylor deeply admires the bravery of your army, and is very honored to challenge your Zhang Dudu. Benbel cherishes the title of warrior very much, and is very willing to learn the art of swords with you, but now that he is in military affairs, he can't duel with you alone, and I'm very sorry. If you are willing to lead your troops to surrender, I hereby promise that in the future, I will have the opportunity to learn from you and study the way of martial arts and fighting. ”
When the rider heard this, he cried out, "In that case, then go back to the governor of my house, and ask Baylor to wait a moment." Then he turned his horse's head and ran up the hillside.
At the top of the hillside, Fang Yichen, who heard Haoge's words, was surprised, and said to Zhang Zhiqi: "What kind of fame are you doing, do you really want to fight Haoge alone?" ”
Zhang Zhiqi laughed and said, "How is it possible?" I guess he won't go alone with me. But then again, Hauge really didn't have a seed. ”
Fang Yichen laughed and said, "Could it be that you are the so-called delaying strategy?" Zhang Zhiqi, it turns out that you are also a cunning person! ”
Zhang Zhiqi didn't think it was angry, and said with a smile: "The enemy is strong and I am weak, this is no way!" ”
Fang Yichen smiled and said, "Fortunately, the other party is Haoge, if it is Mang Gurtai, maybe he really wants to compete with you, then you will be comfortable." ”
Zhang Zhiqi smiled faintly, turned his head to look at him and said, "What?" Our swordsman just doesn't have confidence in me? Think I can't beat Mang Gurtai? ”
Fang Yichen pretended to sigh, shook his head and said: "If it is me, I will naturally win, but if it is really you, I am a little worried......
"Fuck your uncle!" Zhang Zhiqi scolded angrily and said, "You don't want to be rampant, if you have a chance, let's have a good fight and see who is powerful." ”
"Okay, always accompanied!" Fang Yichen's eyes lit up, this was something he couldn't ask for.
Down the hill, Hauge watched the rider return to the hill before replying to Governor Zhang. From a distance, this Zhang Dudu seemed to be discussing with his subordinates, and from time to time pointing at their location.
After waiting for a while, the other party still didn't respond, Haoge was a little uncontrollable, what did the Ming army have in mind, are they delaying time?
At this moment, a commander came to his side and whispered to him: "Lord Belle, the other party is delaying time, and our scouting horse found that a large number of Ming cavalry are heading east.
Haoge was furious when he heard this, Mingren was really cunning, no wonder Zhang Zhiqi, the governor of everything, had been fighting with himself here, it turned out that the large army had already retreated.
After a few attempts in one day and one night, Hauge was already furious, and was about to order all the cavalry to kill up the hillside, but saw that the dozens of horsemen on the top of the mountain suddenly turned their horses' heads and went down to the other side of the hillside, and none of them disappeared in an instant.
Hauge was furious, raised his whip and shouted: "Chase, chase me, don't let anyone go!" ”
"Boom", the earthquake trembled, and thousands of horsemen launched together, rushing up towards the top of the hillside.
Soon, the Houjin cavalry rushed up the hillside, and the other side of the hillside was empty, and sure enough, there was not a single Ming cavalry.
Hauge felt a pain in his heart, the reason why he had dealt with the Ming army before was that he wanted to persuade this cavalry to surrender so that it could be included in his command; Second, they had some scruples, fearing that the Ming army would set up an ambush behind the hillside and catch them off guard.
But everything in front of him made him completely dead, so he pointed at Zhang Zhiqi and fled to the west of more than 20 horsemen, and shouted hoarsely: "Catch up with them, you must capture Zhang Zhiqi alive for me." ”
As a result, this piece of land in the Liaozuo Plain staged a magical scene, thousands of heavily armed Houjin cavalry, following the Ming army more than 20 horsemen in pursuit, shouting and shouting resounded in the sky, the scene was quite spectacular.
But no matter how much they urged the horses to raise their whips, they just couldn't catch up with the more than 20 horses, and the two sides always maintained a distance of more than 50 zhang, and they never gave up all the way. 9.
