Chapter 2 of the Ming War Hussars Raise Their Reputations, Night Raids Highlight Their Prestige

However, it is said that when Yang Duan led the Northern Soldiers and Horse Army to chase in front of him, he suddenly saw that the two thousand light cavalry troops of Liangshan in front of him were divided into two, and those Liangshan hussars turned their own way, so when they galloped their horses, they turned together without confusion. Seeing this, Yang Duan secretly took a breath and said: "This group of Liangshan light cavalry army can turn together in such a gallop, and the whole horse army is not chaotic at all, it is really an elite horse army, compared to the cavalry of the Liao army." How does he have to go around and come back? ”

Thinking of this, Yang Duan looked back and was immediately shocked, it turned out that after chasing for more than 20 miles, the infantry led by Guo Xin and Su Ji had been left behind. Seeing that the infantry behind him had not arrived, Yang Duan was in a hurry and hurriedly ordered the cavalry under his command to meet the enemy separately on the left and right wings.

The Northland Horse Army under Yang Duan was not as elite as the Liangshan Hussars, and after they fixed the war horses together, they turned their horses together and galloped towards the two wings. It's just because the Northland Ma Army turned around so much, so it was a little slower, where were Hua Rong and Sun Li willing to let go of such an opportunity?

When the horn sounded, the two wings of the Liangshan hussars divided their troops again, the two wings were divided into three roads, and rushed straight towards the northern soldiers together, and the two wings were generally divided into three roads, and then the head was stopped, the waist was chopped, and the tail was pinched, and the two wings of the northern army and horse army were cut into three sections cleanly, and then a burst of rushing and killing, and the northern horse army under Yang Duan was suddenly in chaos.

After a short battle, Yang Duan met Sun Li in the chaotic army, and was stabbed under the horse by Sun Li, and the Northern Soldiers and Horse Army were defeated and lost, and they fled, and the two thousand horse army only escaped with one or two hundred people.

After Hua Rong and Sun Li defeated the Northern Soldiers and Horses with a spear, they immediately ordered a group of hussars to form a formation, and then they all dismounted, raised horses, and waited for the arrival of the Northern Infantry Army.

However, he said that Guo Xin and Su Ji led the infantry army to arrive, and after the news of the defeat, he hesitated for a moment, Guo Xin said: "I waited for the army and horses to go out of the city to meet the battle, and I have already broken Fang Qiong two, if I am defeated and retreated, I don't care about Yang Duan's life or death, and I am afraid that I will only see the guilt when I go back." He has only 2,000 light cavalry troops there, and my infantry here are all spears and halberds, and they can resist it if they are lined up in a rejecting horse formation. Su Ji said: "That's right." At that moment, the two had to bite the bullet and order the infantry to form a formation and rush forward.

He drove a few miles away, and encountered more defeated soldiers along the way, and after asking, he learned that Yang Duan had been killed in the chaos. Both of them were shocked, and when they were about to retreat, they saw the Liangshan horse army in front of them coming, but they were leading the horses and walking slowly.

Guo Xin said: "If you see the enemy on the flat ground, if you retreat here, the formation will be chaotic, how can you avoid the pursuit of the cavalry?" Why don't you fight here for a while, and then pay attention to it. Su Ji said: "Exactly. "At the moment of the two flag-waving orders, the shield and spear in the front, and the strong bow and crossbow in the back, they will discharge the horse rejection array to resist.

After waiting for a while, I didn't see the Liangshan light cavalry army coming up to charge the battle, only to see that those people were far away, resting under the horses, and the horses ate some forage on the spot, but the people were sitting or lying down in front of the battle to rest.

Guo Xin was furious when he saw it, shouted and beat the drums, and the infantry pressed forward step by step. When the two armies met at a stone's throw away, the horses began to whistle in all directions, and then they got on their horses, and then each raised his bow and crossbow, and shot a rain of arrows, and then retreated.

Guo Xin's two infantry troops chased Li Xu, but they didn't dare to chase anymore and retreated. I didn't want to retreat for a few miles, and the smoke and dust rose behind me, and the group of cavalry came again, and the ghost did not disperse. At this time, the two armies had been entangled for half a day, the armor of the Northern Infantry Army was heavy, it was already tired and hungry, people were sleepy and tired, and it was on the way back, when they saw the return of the Liangshan Hussar, they were at a loss for a while.

The Liangshan hussars were obviously full of horsepower, and after they all galloped together, a rain of arrows shot first, and then they all drew a strange curved saber and roared upward. The northern infantry was not in time to line up, and there was a great chaos.

After the hussars broke into the infantry formation, the sabers in their hands were all made by Sanniang according to the style of the Gurk scimitar, the Gurk scimitar resembled a dog's leg, and the cavalry slashed and killed, won the love of the Liangshan horse army, all called its ******, it is said that when the Liangshan horse army tried the knife, a knife cut off the head of the bull.

The hussars smashed into it with scimitars, the sword flashed, and blood flew everywhere they went, and I don't know how many northern soldiers were hacked to death on the spot, or they were knocked to the ground by their horses, and the horses stepped on them and died.

Guo Xin saw that the soldiers and horses were defeated, and when he was about to leave, he was caught up by Hua Rong and killed with an arrow. When Su Ji retreated in a hurry, Sun Li might as well catch up and stab him to death with one shot. So far, the northern soldiers have sent 5,000 troops and horses, and all five generals have been broken.

When Hua Rong and Sun Li led the horse army to kill the northern soldiers, behind the northern soldiers who listened violently, the shouts were loud, but it was Niu Wenzhong who was afraid that Fang Qiong would lose, so An Shirong and Yu Yulin each led 5,000 military horses and joined forces in two ways to respond.

Hua Rong and Sun Li saw each other, and remembered Sanniang's instructions when they taught the art of war, "Hussars and horses can only wander and harass, and when the enemy army is loose and tired, they will come forward to fight again, and they must not fight against the enemy's hard formation." At that moment, Hua Rong and Sun Li whistled, and the cavalry turned their horses' heads together, and they were not chasing, but retreated.

An Shirong, Yu Yulin caught the defeated soldiers, saw that there were only five or six hundred people left, and then heard that Fang Qiong and the other five generals were all killed, and they were all furious at the moment, so the two led the army and horses to chase after them, and chased them up, both of them gritted their teeth, and they were going to kill Hua Rong and Sun Li.

Driven out of the number of miles, suddenly heard three cannon sounds, the front two wings each knocked out a Biao military horse, the northern army was suddenly in chaos, the left is Dong Ping, Yang Zhi and other seven generals, the right is Xu Ning, Suo Chao and other seven generals, the two wings of soldiers and horses, rushed to kill together, Hua Rong, Sun Li two led the army to turn over and kill, the northern army was defeated, and there were many killers.

An Shirong, Yu Yulin and others led the troops into the city in a hurry and closed the city gate. The cavalry of the Liangshan army chased to the bottom of the city, and the wooden cannon stones were thrown on the city, and the generals were beaten down, and the Liangshan army and horses retreated.

After a while, Sanniang led the Chinese army to arrive, and the generals joined forces in one place, and they all went to the city five miles away. Sanniang promoted the account and taught the main book under his command to write Hua Rong and Sun Li's first merits. Suddenly, a strange wind arose, flying earth and dust, from west to east, shaking the flags crookedly.

Dong Ping said: "This gust of wind, the main thief will rob the village tonight, so you can prepare quickly." Sanniang said with a smile: "He was defeated by me for a while, seeing that my soldiers and horses came from afar, robbing the village should be a strategy, if I use soldiers, it should be the same." ”

At that moment, Ou Peng, Ma Lin, Han Tao, and Peng Xi led 3,000 soldiers to ambush in the left of the village; Xuanzan, Hao Siwen, Li Zhong, and Zhou Tong led 3,000 soldiers to ambush on the right side of the village; Li Kui, Bao Xu, Xiang Chong, Li Gon, led 500 troops, and ambushed in the village: the cannon sounded as a trumpet, and they were killed together.

The distribution has been allocated, and Sanniang is alone, reading by candle in the Chinese military tent. Let's say that Niu Wenzhong saw that he folded three generals and counted the sergeants, and a total of 10,000 military horses were gone, more than 6,000 were folded, and many generals were folded.

Seeing that he had been killed so miserably in just a while, Niu Wenzhong was wondering in the tent, when there was a "Piwei general" An Shirong offered a plan: "Rest assured!" Liangshan's gang was brave and fierce in the field, and Tong Guan's 100,000 officers and troops were still defeated, and it is not surprising that our northern soldiers were defeated. Now that she has just arrived, and she has won another big victory, she must be full of arrogance and unprepared. Tonight, An, lead a soldier to rob the village, and he can win a complete victory to avenge today's revenge. Niu Shumi: "If the general goes, I should personally lead the troops to respond; However, General Yu Chu was ordered to stick to the city. An Shirong was overjoyed and said: "If you get a blind date, you will capture the female thief." ”

The plan has been decided, to the second watch, An Shirong and the generals Shen An, Lu Yuan, Wang Ji, Shi Jing, led 5,000 troops and horses, people dressed in soft battles, horses picked up the bells, out of the city, the title of the gallop walked, until the front of the Liangshan Village, shouted, and rushed into the village.

Seeing that the door of the village was wide open, the lights and candles in the village were brilliant, and An Shirong knew the plan and retreated sharply. There was a cannon shot in Liangshanzhai, there were four generals such as Ou Peng and Ma Lin on the left, and four generals such as Xuanzan and Hao Siwen on the right, all of whom rushed together to kill; Li Kui and other generals in the village, leading the barbarian infantry, rolled out of the village.

The northern army was defeated and fled for their lives. Shen An was hacked to death by Li Kui with a knife, and Wang Ji was killed by Xuanzan. When Sanniang saw it, she ordered the four military horses to surround only the remaining northern soldiers, but she refused to attack with a dead hand. At that moment, the generals were ordered, and only surrounded An Shirong, Lu Yuan, and Shi Jing in the heart, but did not attack and kill them violently.

Niu Wenzhong saw the danger at the head of the city, and hurriedly picked up the generals Cao Hong and Shi Xun, and led the troops to rescue. In this way, Sanniang was in the arms, and when she saw the arrival of the northern soldiers' rescuers, she ordered the military horses to go up one after another. When Niu Wenzhong saw it, he was shocked, and shouted: "The plan of the female thief to surround the troops and send reinforcements, and the armies will retreat quickly!" ”

At the moment, after Cao Hong and Shi Xun fought to the death, Niu Wenzhong was able to escape, but An Shirong, Lu Yuan, and Shi Jing were all killed on the spot, Cao Hong was killed by Hao Siwen with an arrow, and only Shi Xun escaped back with injuries.

In the dark night, Sanniang saw that the city head was always full of soldiers, and the fire was not chaotic, so she did not chase after it, and when she arrived at the city, she saw a rain of arrows shooting, and Sanniang ordered all departments to collect their own troops, return to the camp, reward the generals, reward the sergeants, and save the wounded soldiers.

The next day, Niu Wenzhong counted the sergeants and folded more than 3,000; and folded An Shirong, Lu Yuan, Shi Jing, Cao Hong, Shen An, Wang Ji and other generals; Shi Xun was seriously injured and was breathing. In the midst of depression, it was suddenly reported that Wasion had a mission to arrive. Niu Wenzhong hurriedly got on the horse and went out of the north gate to greet him.

The envoy entered the city and read out the edict, saying that recently, Si Tianjian watched the sky at night, and there were white lotus stars invading the Jindi division, and it was advisable to stick to the city and not make mistakes. Niu Wenzhong told that Liang Shan and other soldiers and horses came to kill and broke two cities in a row. The Liangshan military horse has arrived here, killed yesterday, and folded the eleven members of the general. If the rescuers arrive early, they will be safe.

The envoy said, "At the time of the departure from Weisheng, there was no news of this. Walking to the middle road, I heard the legend that the Liangshan military horse came to me here. Niu Wenzhong set up a banquet and gave gifts, while preparing wooden artillery stones, strong bows and crossbows, rockets and firearms, and held the city to wait for the rescuers.

But it was said that there was Liangshan, and the next day at dawn, Sanniang gave an order, repaired the equipment, and prepared to attack the city. Ling Xu Ning, Xuanzan, and Hao Siwen led 10,000 troops to attack the East Gate; Yang Zhi, Han Tao, and Peng Fang led 10,000 troops to attack the south gate; Dong Ping, Shan Tingjue, Wei Dingguo, led 10,000 troops to attack Ximen; But the north gate is empty, fearing that help will come, and there will be a conflict in the city, and the enemy will be attacked on both sides. However, Hua Rong, Ou Peng, and Ma Lin led 5,000 troops to ambush them under the high post in the northeast of the city; Suo Chao, Li Zhong, and Zhou Tong, led 5,000 troops, and ambushed in the dense forest northwest of the city; If the thieves send rescuers to arrive, they will be attacked in two directions.

Ling Li Kui, Bao Xu, Xiang Chong, Li Gon, Liu Tang, led three hundred infantry, and Hua Rong and others coordinated with each other. The distribution has been decided, and the generals have obeyed. Li Yun was ordered to supervise the repair of the ladder and fly to the building, and push it to the battalions for driving. Sanniang and the rest of the generals moved to camp one mile east of the walled city, just waiting for the siege. (To be continued.) )
