Chapter 681: Gathering Troops

The men and horses led by Han Shizhong this time are all able to fight tough battles and endure hard battles, and the most elite men and horses in the army who look up to them, although there are not many of them, and they have experienced long-distance attacks, but they must have merit, and they will definitely seal the gap in Luling, and maybe they will take the Flying Kite Fort to the west, and seal the road for the Jurchen army to continue to go south into the direction of Lanzhou from the Lan army!

Since the formation of the Shence Army, everything has destroyed the past achievements of strong enemies, and it has also made the defenders in the cave valley village extremely confident in their judgment!

But in the end, it was the most elite armor soldiers in these Shence Army, covered in dust, mud, blood and sweat, with a tired and gloomy face to return to the cave valley village, and then collapsed in a large area. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info

The pace of the Jurchen army's southward march was so fast, and the defenders of the Lan army lost the fortress pass at a speed that was equivalent to hearing the wind and scattering, and the Shence army was actually unfavorable!

At this time, the defenders in the cave valley village could only put away their slightly flustered emotions and hurriedly began to take care of these retreating military horses.

Sent light cavalry to replace Han Shizhong's personal guards, who were already very tired, and continued to send out sentry spies to the west, taking care of the thousands of war horses in the army who were also extremely tired, and the fire army also burned a large amount of hot soup, baked oily cakes, and the large barrels were loaded, and the horse feed was also prepared.

But these thousands of armor soldiers were so tired that they didn't even have the strength to eat, and how many people held soup bowls and pancakes in their hands, and after only one bite, they fell asleep with their heads tilted.

Only Han Shizhong with a few personal guards, still walking around with his own strength, and the guards of the cave valley village hurriedly arranged something, and dozens of cave valley village riders were scattered to the east, north and south. With the latest military information to report everywhere, and also to arrange the defense of the cave valley village, in addition to stabilizing the defense of the cave valley village, Han Shizhong is not willing to shrink his head and be beaten like this!

In a hurry with the guards of the cave valley village, and scattered hundreds of sentinels to the west, and ordered the guard of the cave valley village to immediately set up two military villages in the supervised river valley road, the defenders of the cave valley village did not make a counterattack, that is, to the west to defend steadily, no matter how fierce the Jurchen army horses were, as long as the cave valley village here is slightly shaken, the guard will either die in front of the Jurchen army formation, or cut off his head!

After the guard of the cave valley village took the order awe-inspiringly and left, Han Shizhong dragged his heavy steps and walked in front of a bunch of sleeping people, looking for two of them, and kicked them up heavily.

Han Shizhong kicked two people, one was Niu Gao and the other was Huang Wenjin, the two slept almost hugging each other, this picture was so beautiful that they couldn't look at it directly, and the snoring was shocking.

Han Shizhong kicked these two rammers mercilessly, and there were only two loud noises on their armor, and Niu Gao turned over and got up. I wanted to hit someone with my fist, but when I saw that it was Han Shizhong's tower-like figure standing in front of me, I put away my fist, rubbed my eyes and complained: "Straight lady thief, it's just to fight to the end in Luling, and it's not that the Jurchen Tartars haven't touched it!" I have to retreat, hundreds of miles down, people and horses are tired like mud, and people and horses are not allowed to sleep for a while? ”

On the other side, Huang Wenjin was kicked hard and didn't wake up, and he actually turned over with heavy armor, Niu Gao was full of anger and had nowhere to spill, and punched him heavily in the hood.

"Straight thief up!"

Huang Wenjin yawned and opened his eyes, and he also opened his mouth to talk about Biaocun, and saw that it was Han Shizhong standing in front of him with a calm face, so he was very deeply restrained.

Han Shizhong and these two goods had nothing to worry about, and said coldly: "There is a military order!" ”

As soon as the three words came out, Niu Gao and Huang Wenjin jumped up, and even the armor soldiers around them who were sleeping very deeply and couldn't wake up with thunder subconsciously opened their eyes!

"Niu Gao Huang Wenjin, you hurry north, discuss with the front guard, and draw at least ten commanders to ride back! A certain will sit in the cave valley village, take a little rest, and continue to counterattack Luling, you bring back the military horses, and respond to the follow-up reinforcements! ”

When Niu Gao Han Shizhong heard the word counterattack, he immediately threw the tiredness on his body as heavy as a mountain out of the clouds, staggered over and got up, hammered the cuirass to receive the order, and went to find a mount that could still walk. The sleeping armor soldiers around them also stood up and beckoned one after another: "I still have to find the Jurchen Tartars to settle accounts, and we are tired of fighting any birds, so we all go and take care of our mounts!" ”

This battle is really aggrieved, the so-called friendly army on the side of the door is open, the Shence army has been sending hundreds of miles to help, and it is actually not returned, when is the Shence army so embarrassed, fortunately, the Han general is worthy of being the Han general, and he will continue to attack, and he will find this field back!

Han Shizhong took a deep look at the guards who were extremely tired and still managed to stand up, nodded and strode away.

He was deeply relieved that the soldiers were still fighting spirit, but there were some words that could not be said to these loyal soldiers.

The current inferiority of the war situation in Hedong is beyond imagination, and it is no longer something that he can redeem alone!

Han Shizhong walked to another pile of sleeping armor soldiers, a armor soldier was leaning on a big stone, sleeping drooling, this person is Zhou Tai, is the head of the personal guard of the former Bai Ji army general Yang Keshi, after Yang Keshi went, he came to the Shence army tent to listen to it, Han Shizhong unceremoniously kicked him awake again: "Straight mother thief, the name of the commander of the main guard of the Great Yang is still worthy of you like this?" I don't care about my own soldiers and horses, I sleep like a stupid bird, get out of here! ”

Zhou Tai jumped up in shock, and saw Han Shizhong standing in front of him with a blue face, touching the back of his head and smiling weakly: "I just squint, I'm going to take care of the soldiers and horses, I'm going to take care of the soldiers and horses!" ”

Han Shizhong pulled him over, walked away from the pile of sleeping armor soldiers, and said in a low voice: "You choose a command, eat and drink, choose a strong horse, and go south!" Go down to Taiyuan from Jingle and stabilize the situation there! ”

Among Han Shizhong's troops, although Niu Gao under his command has the highest official position, Han Shizhong relies on Zhou Tai, a young general, who rushes into battle and leads the troops alone, all of which are extremely handy.

As soon as he heard Han Shizhong's words, Zhou Tai reacted, Han Shizhong was afraid that the Jurchen army would continue to go south, pass through Yifang, and follow the tributary valley south of Lanshui to attack in the direction of Taiyuan Mansion!

Zhou Tai's expression also became solemn: "Just command the soldiers and horses?" ”

Han Shizhong nodded silently, the army of the Shence Army was pressed on the front, and it was involved by the Jurchen Army, it was not easy to draw out a large number of people to plug the gap, after the Jurchen Army broke through the border from the direction of the Lan Army, its strength advantage could be fully exerted, and the flank of the Shence Army could be copied everywhere, even if Han Shizhong wanted to retreat south, he could only take it step by step, and he could pull out Zhou Tai to lead the cavalry to go south to worry about the situation, and he was already doing his best at the moment.

No one can say how useful this command cavalry can be, so he can only hope that the speed and determination of the Jurchen army to continue to move south are not as good as before, leaving a little time for Han Shizhong to react!

The battle on Han Shizhong's wing has changed to a situation where both sides are fighting, and the Shence army does not have much geographical advantage to borrow, and it is necessary to fight for strength, but the disadvantage of the troops is really placed here, and the only thing that can be counted on is that the army led by the King of Jin can arrive in time, or the headquarters of the Western Army in the west can launch a counteroffensive in time to contain the footsteps of the Jurchen army.

But the news reported a few days ago that Yang Ling praised the Japanese army but had only arrived in the direction of Xijing Luoyang, preparing to cross the river to the north and east of the river, and tens of thousands of troops crossed the river to march, which was not so fast, and the western army headquarters in the west, looking at their performance in the Lan army, still shook their heads quickly.

Han Shizhong has already done his best under unfavorable conditions, but the pit dug by the Zhejia army in the direction of the Lan army is too big, with the strength of the Shence army and the speed of Han Shizhong's response, it still can't make up for it!

At this time, the only way to do it is to know that it is impossible to do it, and it is nothing more than trying to fight to the death.

Zhou Tai angrily gave up his hand and took the order: "General, I will choose people and horses, if the last general can't come back, please bring hundreds of Jurchen Tartar heads to see the grave of the last general!" ”

Han Shizhong didn't say a word, just slapped Zhou Tai heavily and turned away.

King Jin, we are fighting desperately here, trying our best to block the emperor, you don't come too late, otherwise the situation will be irreparable.

There is also the family army of the straight thief, as long as I don't die, there will be an account at that time!

And Zhou Tai had already gotten up, pulled up the armor soldiers around him one by one, and whispered a few words, these athletes who were already extremely tired cheered up again, and prepared to continue to attack and fight!

After Han Shizhong made the arrangement, a fast horse galloped over, "Lord Qiqi, there are 100,000 people in Taiyuan!" ”

Han Shizhong made a military salute, that is, he took the letter, read it for a long time, and there was an unbelievable look in the tiger's eyes, for no other reason, the news in the letter was mixed, the good news was that more than 6,000 elites led by Wang Yu had arrived in Taiyuan City, Wang Yu had taken over the defense of Taiyuan, and the worry was that Yin Keshu had led tens of thousands of troops from Luling to Taiyuan.

Han Shizhong instructed the people around him, "Go and chase Niu Gao, Huang Wenjin, and Zhou Tai back, and in addition, you are going out of the customs to transfer the 8,000 Shence army directly led by a certain person to Taiyuan, forget it, I will personally transfer it, and then write two letters, so that Lu Junyi will withdraw from Yanmen Pass and return to Taiyuan, and Xue Yongyang will be transferred to Feihukou to meet Gao Chong, and lead the troops back to Taiyuan." ”

Since Taiyuan is about to be besieged, then the supply of Yanmen Pass is very problematic, even if there are sufficient savings, once Taiyuan City is broken, then under the attack from both sides, Lu Junyi of Yanmen Pass has also become a turtle in the urn, and all the previous defenses have been stopped, and all the previous defenses have been stopped, and all the things to do now is to transfer all the troops, return to Taiyuan, and fight to the death with Yinkeshu.

It is foreseeable that once Lu Junyi and his army in front of Zong Han withdraw to Taiyuan, then the Jurchen army directly led by Wanyan Zonghan will also reach Taiyuan, and the two sides will have a battle here that has not been seen for decades.

And this time, in addition to the defense advantage of the king of Taiyuan City, all the soldiers and horses of the Song army will hunt with the Jurchen Tartars, and there is no longer the advantage of garrisoning the village to defend, which is ...... There's no way around it.

In front of Luling, the brigade of the same tired Zahu light cavalry also poured onto the road, after easily repelling Han Shizhong's attack, the coalition of these Zahu and Jurchen Tartars was also tired, and thousands of people did not even have the strength to collect the corpses and wounded.

Only the Jurchen armor soldiers, who had never really participated in the war, insisted on sending sentry outs to the east, beware of the strong army of the Southern Dynasties coming back to kill the horses and guns, and marched forward against these thousands of Zahu troops who had made miraculous achievements.

This strong army of the Southern Dynasties can obviously see the fatigue after hundreds of miles of running, but they still beat them up in ambush, and then the whole division returned, if it weren't for the support of the Jurchen army, their mixed army and horses would be defeated and lost!

The strength of the Han family's military horses, they finally saw it. The arrogance of going south like a bamboo, and suddenly poured a basin of cold water on his head, Yin Keshu saw that they had experienced such a hard battle, and finally showed great mercy, gave them a few hours to rest, and then entangled these miscellaneous beards, ready to continue south!

These miscellaneous beards really want to loot in the territory of the Lan army, but Yin Keshu dominates them, and the grace is not reduced, and the head is not soft, and the Jurchen Mouke is supervised in the army, so he can only obey the order, rectify the army and continue to go south, and the Yin Keshu and the Jurchen Mou Ke Ahan who stayed here finally explained a few words: "We can't stay here, we can't defend the city compared to the southerners!" Pick the horses, or press east! Don't worry about the back road, the army of Zonghan is coming soon! ”

Ah Han nodded, the Jurchen army Ma Qiang was on the field battle, he still paid attention to this, seeing Yin Keshu's tired face, Ah Han, who didn't have much respect for Yin Keshu, couldn't help but say: "Yin Keshu, your credit is big enough, just stay here, wait for the arrival of Zonghan's army, return the old department to you, isn't it more powerful than these guys?" ”

Yin Keshu smiled: "It's not enough. ”

This strong army of the Southern Dynasties is still there, and it has not completely driven them into a corner, and the shame they have suffered is so huge, how can this merit be considered enough now? More Southerner blood is needed! A bigger win is needed!

Only by stepping on the banner of this strong army of the Nanren on the horse's hooves and burning the capital of the Nanren Kingdom will it be enough at that time, and he is not willing to talk more to Ahan, so he shouted loudly: "Continue to the south!" Shake the southerners defense line completely! A certain guarantee here, as long as you kill all the way to the Nanren Taiyuan Mansion, each of you, I will ask Zong Han to reward ten Nanren people and endless goods! If you hesitate a little, a certain silver can kill people without blinking! (To be continued.) )
