Chapter 550 actually worked wonders

The horse army is overwhelming, in the wilderness, the eyes are all riding like a flood sweeping away the filth, sweeping everything The roaring hooves are like the thunder of the nine heavens, shocking the enemy's courage The Jin army camp in front of it is trembling, and the soldiers who have lost their unified command are at a loss, and many people turn around and run.

When a red-faced officer rushed out of his tent, shouting at the enemy with a sword, he was surrounded by fleeing soldiers

"Stand on the barracks and meet the death of those who escape from the enemy," the man roared hysterically with his mouth full of wine. He dragged the soldiers who ran past him and threw them forward. His action shocked the surrounding deserters, and the frightened soldiers stopped, staring at the commander with wide eyes.

But at this moment, more and more deserters overwhelmed them like a tidal wave. The magistrate couldn't stop him, and the swarming tide of soldiers pushed him and moved backwards. Eventually, he also gave up his resistance and joined the deserters. However, how can a two-legged man outrun a four-legged horse?

The brave knights roared loudly, and the galloping horses leaped from the antlers in front of the camp, and rushed straight into the camp to look at the scattered and fleeing enemies in front of them, the knights had no mercy, they brandished their swords, and let the bright blades turn into horses, and after that flash of light, it often brought a thin rain of blood

The panicked Jin soldiers rushed out of the camp like a low tide, but they were desperate to find that everywhere they could see behind them was his mother's cavalry

The first camp fell without any resistance, and the fleeing crowd rushed to the second. Here, the soldiers had just learned of the attack of the Western army and were about to rush to the barracks, when the rebels had inevitably collided with them, looking at the crowd of people in front of them, even the bravest soldiers did not have the courage to join the ranks of escape.

Immediately afterwards, the soldiers in the third barracks also followed in confusion. The cavalry of the Western Army, like shepherds, drove the flock

Soon, the entire military camp in the west of Zhengzhou City was empty, and the rush of fleeing soldiers did not distinguish between east and west, north and south, and wherever there was no western army, they would rush to wherever they went. But the cavalry that followed them would not let them go, and the whistling white feathers often made the soldiers who ran wildly with their legs stumbling, and fell to the ground and harvested the heads like sickles with machetes carrying strong winds

Thousands of soldiers of the Jin Army were driven away, slaughtered, crying for their fathers and mothers, and in a mess. Many of them have just one destination, Zhengzhou City

When the dense crowd of people poured over, the city garrison officer who had just learned the news resolutely ordered the city gate to be closed When they saw the drawbridge slowly rising, the soldiers who were all in danger of death screamed in despair and looked back, the enemy cavalry had been killed and came to survive, which made these soldiers full of fear take another step......

The sound of the call sign was mixed with shouts, screams, and the sound of gold and stone intersecting. The lightly armed cavalry had no time to spare, and their horses were on a rampage, and they had to slash the deserters around them on horseback. There was no resistance, not even for those who were so anxious to flee that they forgot to throw away their spears, and did not think to sweep the horse's legs. Pursued by the cavalry, these soldiers, who should have fought to the death, became lambs to the slaughter

Dozens of horsemen galloped from the southwest, and they were obviously not Xu Wei's knights.

The look on Sa Li's face was indescribable, he couldn't have imagined that he just went to Meishan to hunt for a while, and came back when the wind rose. But the sight before him made him unbelievable that his conceited and solid camp had become an ornament, and his soldiers were being chased and killed by countless cavalry

The crowd of black pressure has overflowed the city of Zhengzhou and is pouring eastward. Sa Li didn't know what to do for a while, the city must not be able to enter, and there is a high danger of entering the camp outside the city, because no one knows whether the remaining military camp will collapse under the impact of this endless turbulent tide

Suddenly, his eyes lit up, because he saw that in a military camp in the east of the city, his horse army came out in time, as long as his horse army could hold off the cavalry of the Western Army for a while and allow him to take a breath, then he would have the opportunity to revitalize several camps in the east of the city and block the offensive of the Western Army

But soon, he was disappointed. Because the cavalry who came out of the barracks looked at the crowd in front of them, and they had nowhere to start. After a moment's hesitation, they turned their horses around and ran southeast

Sa Li was so anxious that he scolded that these signing troops were all rice buckets, and they were all unreliable, and just as he was furious, a group of cavalry left the crowd and rushed to this side. They had already caught the attention of the Song army

Don't care about scolding again, Sa Li led dozens of knights to desperately urge the horses to gallop behind, the sound of horses' hooves gradually approached a white feather flew past him, the general of the Jin Army looked back, only to see the cavalry of the Western Army chasing after him and scolding secretly, he tried his best to lean down, galloped wildly, and the Jurchen knights opened their bows and arrows to shoot back

"Quickly outflank the past and drive the thieves to the northeast," Yang Zaixing shouted loudly in the cavalry formation. Because they came from the west, driven by them, the Jin army broke and instinctively ran east. But the east used to be a land of flat rivers, and it took time and effort to chase and kill the horse army. To the northeast of Zhengzhou, there is a river called the Jinshui River, which flows all the way to Tokyo. Is it more convenient to drive the rout into the river than to chase and kill?

At the command of the army, a cavalry quickly turned around, drew an arc in the wilderness, and detoured back to the flank of the rout, forcing them to flee in a northeasterly direction.

One military village after another collapsed, and some people fled with them without even knowing why. Xu Wei's cavalry was like a bamboo, they had already crossed the city of Zhengzhou, and everywhere they passed, corpses were strewn all over the field flags, ordnance, and armor

The miraculous effect of the sudden attack made these brave soldiers overjoyed, they did not encounter any decent resistance, just like harvesting the crops, harvesting human heads

It's just that they may not know that they are about to reap a bigger surprise because a team of horse troops is chasing the commander of the Jin army, Dajin's clan, as long as they catch up, the Zhengzhou Jin army will be considered complete

Sa Lijiu ran so fast, he really couldn't understand that in the past, it was our Jurchens who dominated the world by virtue of the benefits of the horse army. But today, this kind of bad luck befell him, and he was chased and killed by cavalry

Beside him, there were constantly soldiers who were hit by arrows and fell off their horses, and the people behind were chasing after him very quicklyAt this time, Sa Lijiu couldn't take care of Zhengzhou, he could only run for his life, he couldn't help but want to slap himself in the mouth, why was he so cheap, he had to go hunting today? If it weren't for the fact that he wasn't in the city, how could this be the case? But now, it's too late to say anything, run for your life and escape to Tokyo, and then make a decision

Suddenly, he felt a piercing pain in his back

An iron arrow pierced through his armor, nailed into the flesh and skin, and broke the shaft of the arrow with his backhand, and continued to run

"Our horse army is out," one of the knights shouted in surprise.

Sa Liyu looked up, and saw that in one of the three military villages to the east, a large number of cavalry poured out, and this cavalry did not turn around and run like the others, but formed an attacking formation, bypassing the chaotic crowd and advancing towards them

There were 3,000 Jurchen troops stationed in that military village. When the commander in the village found out about the situation, he had already ordered the soldiers to go up to the barracks to prepare for battle. Subsequently, he found a small group of cavalry fleeing in confusion being chased and killed by the Song army, and knew that it might be scattered, so he sent the horse army out to respond

"It's still the Jurchen who is reliable, not my race, its heart will be different, the Han people's words really make sense," Sa Li thought in his heart.

Soon, the cavalry of the Jin army stood up and galloped past Sa Li's side to meet the pursuing Song army

Behind him suddenly erupted with an earth-shattering shouting and killing sound, Sa Li drank and didn't have time to look back, he knew that it was the roar of the cavalry of the two armies rushing past, he also knew that this horse army would never be able to repel the Song army, the difference in number was too great, he originally had 8,000 cavalry in his hand, of which 3,000 were the Jurchen army, and the others were the Han army, the Han army, and now, whoever brought a "Han" ran away without a damn shadow, leaving only the Jurchens fighting back desperately. He had to use this gap to make a decision

The war horse rushed into the camp gate, and a group of fierce Anmouke officers rushed up and drank the arrow, and when they dismounted, one accidentally fell down and was caught by his subordinates.

"Ying Guogong, what should I do?" The commander of the military village asked sharply. Emperor Jin changed the Han system after Yan Yan, and was named "Duke of Yingguo", but the Jurchens were dressed like scholars, and they only learned a fur, for example, the officials of the Southern Dynasty would never call the titles of their colleagues in the chief, but called them official ranks.

Sa Liyu looked at the anxious faces in front of him, and sighed helplessly: "Hu'er made the horse army attack and crushed many of my military villages, and its infantry army will arrive after thinking about it." Now the soldiers are busy running for their lives, and the general trend is gone."

Hearing this, they were shocked by the moment, and ordered the Jurchen army to quickly evacuate the camp and head towards Tokyo

When the horn of retreat sounded, Sali was helped onto his horse by his subordinates, and he looked at the routs that were rushing to the northeast and shook his head, because he knew what would await them. He glanced at Zhengzhou City with a complicated expression, and then reluctantly urged the war horse to gallop eastward

Not long after, as he expected, Xu Wei personally led the infantry to arrive. But they had nothing to do, because the camp outside Zhengzhou was completely empty, and they only saw corpses and wounded soldiers all over the ground, and countless equipment, armor and other materials.

Xu Wei immediately stood in front of the Wan Army, and he couldn't believe what he saw, this was the first time he used a large-scale cavalry corps to fight independently, but he didn't expect to get off to a good start

The wind gradually stopped, the heavy armor was removed, and the lightly armed infantry lined up behind the marshal, looking at everything in front of them with joy. Not long ago, when the military order was conveyed to them to march east without heavy armor or heavy equipment, the soldiers guessed that Zhengzhou might be attacked, and there must be a fierce battle. But unexpectedly, the final result turned out to be like this, they wanted to rush up and grab the weapons of war, but no one dared to act rashly without an order

Zhang Xian, who was immediately beside Xu Wei, also showed an expression of disbelief, his eyes scanned the vast battlefield, and said: "Marshal, Yang Zaixing and Li Chengwei have made miraculous achievements this time." ”

Xu Wei nodded, a pair of eyes still sweeping around: "Not bad, great achievement, great achievement, one achievement"

Before Xu Hong hit the army, he had always been as steady as Mount Tai, as cold as a glacier, and as hard as a stubborn stone, the red-haired tiger couldn't help but change his face, what kind of war is this, this is simply a massacre and the person who started this massacre obviously didn't expect this result because he was also puzzled and shocked

"What are we doing now?" Xu Hong asked.

Without waiting for Xu Wei to answer, a military horse came like the wind in the distance, and when he got closer, he found that the first young general was only more than ten years old, but he was extremely grown and thin. The red robe was wrapped around him, and it was a word, too fat and wearing a hood, almost covering his face, wearing light armor on his body, and the weapon in his hand, which was rarely used in the army, was a two-eared halberd, which was terrifying

Look at the face of this young general, with a hooked nose and hanging horned eyes, but the mouth is small and tightly closed, and his eyes are showing a fierce light, so that the whole face looks full of violence, and you can easily know whose son he is from his appearance.

"The marshal was ordered to come and report the battle situation," the young general reined in front of Xu Wei and said respectfully. When he faced Xu Wei, his face was full of anger, and he bowed his head and clenched his fists, and he couldn't stand up.

"Say," Xu Wei said.

"Yang and Li's second command is leading the Ma army to clear the remnants of the enemy, except for the city that has not been broken, all the military villages have been taken," the young general reported loudly.

Xu Wei looked up at Zhengzhou City, the surrounding military fortresses have been broken, Zhengzhou City has been isolated, it is difficult to do anything, and it is only a matter of time before the city is broken.

At this time, Zhang Xian suddenly asked, "Heir, how much did you get today?" ”

"Back to Manager Zhang, the lowly position killed seventeen people today is just that Li Tongzhi and his father are not allowed to kill in the end, otherwise there will be more than this number" The young general's surname is Yang, the name is the heir, and his father is a famous person in the army, Yang Zaixing

Yang Zaixing was the general of Cao Cheng, the leader of the thieves in Runan, at the beginning, and after the national disaster, the Zhao official family recruited the Quartet Righteous Warrior Qin Wang. Yang Zaixing came to Tokyo, and then met Yao Pingzhong and Xu Wei, both of whom set up banners to recruit troops. Yang Zaixing joined Yao Pingzhong and was very important. Because he was a thief before, he did not marry a wife, and after he became an officer, Yao Pingzhong married a wife for him, and the son he grew was this Yang Jihei.

This thing is completely a demon king of the world, he grew up in Xu Wei's military camp since he was a child, and played with the children and nephews of many officers, because of the influence of elders and the environment, the dolls in these military camps are familiar with military affairs since they were young. When he was a little older, he learned to punch and kick and make a gun stick. This Yang Jihei completely inherited his father's fierceness, because of his small size, other babies always bullied him, but there was no time when he was not beaten to the point that his nose was blue and his face was swollen and this guy dared to play ruthlessly, when he was five years old, he had a knife on his body

How old is he now? What rank is fourteen? Zheng Bapin Dunwulang Xu Wei crossed over and possessed "Xu Wei", how old was he when he made up for the eight-pin Xiuwulang because of his meritorious work in suppressing thieves? At the age of seventeen, because of this, Xu Wei once joked with Yang Zaixing, saying that your son is better than me.

"Go ahead." Xu Wei waved his hand. Yang Jisi bowed his head again, straightened up his halberd, and galloped away with his subordinates. These senior commanders looked at his battle robe flying and galloping on horseback, and couldn't help but sigh, brave and good at fighting, just like his father. The next generation of our Tiger Army is beginning to emerge.

Yang Zaixing and Li Chengwei have locked the victory, so the next step is Zhengzhou City.

"Dashuai, attack or persuade?" Zhang Xian asked.

Xu Wei glanced at the barracks, and said in a deep voice: "Most of the troops are stationed outside the city, and there must not be many defenders in the city, and the attack will definitely be broken, but it will inevitably kill and wound, and the people will be affected, so persuade them to surrender." ”

At that moment, he ordered the soldiers to enter the barracks, and sent troops to clean up the mess and clear the spoils. When the officers and soldiers of the Hu'er Army entered the camp left behind by the Jin Army, they were shocked to find that the Jin Army had only left, and other equipment, food and other materials had not been touched at all. This is cheap, and the soldiers are smiling and reaping the benefits.

Besides, in the city of Zhengzhou, after the guard ordered the city gate to be closed, he found that he had made himself a turtle in an urn. There were only more than 3,200 defenders in the city, and most of them were Han soldiers, except for hundreds of pro-army guards. At present, the troops outside the city have been dispersed, and what is even more unfortunate is that the main force of the Western Army has arrived, stationed in the military fortress left by the Jin army, and blocked the city, and there is nowhere to escape

Zhengzhou Zhizhou is a Han man, who was also an official of the Great Song Dynasty in the past, and then he was a pseudo-Han, Han was abolished, and he became a Jin official. Seeing the arrival of the western army in a big way, he knew that he could not hold the city, so he hurriedly wanted to find the Jurchen guard, and suggested that the city be surrendered to avoid casualties and harm to the people. However, before he could go, the messengers sent by the Western Army had already arrived at the moat.

On the tower of the city, the guard and the governor stood back and forth, looking at the city. The guard general was a commander of the Jin Army, a Jurchen, who was neatly draped at this time, holding the hilt of a knife and shouting to the city: "If you have something to say, you can speak"

He said the Jurchen language, someone had to translate, and after the envoy of the western army under the city heard it clearly, he shouted loudly: "Xu Weijun, the prime minister of Shaanxi, ordered most of the Jinshi in Zhengzhou to flee, and the defeat has been determined not to harm the people in the city, give you a way to live and open the city immediately, disarm, surrender, and our army promises not to kill"

When Na Zhizhou heard this, he took the opportunity to persuade: "Wanhu, Xu Wei is a general of the Southern Dynasty, and his reputation is outstanding, and his words must be true. Now that he is poor, Lang Jun does not know whether he is alive or dead, it is better to open the city and surrender, and he can save his life. ”

After hearing what he meant, the commander said angrily: "Surrender and disarm, that's what you southerners do, how can the Jurchens bend their knees?" Don't say that there are thousands of soldiers in the city, even if I am alone, there is no reason to open the city, as long as I stick to the city, no matter how brave and easy the tiger is, I can't go to Tokyo here, but more than a hundred miles, and the reinforcements will surrender overnight? Hmph, Xu Hu'er said a lot of things."
