Chapter 142: Ruijia Village

The king of Ji in Huzhou heard that the Lin'an court had sent troops to attack, so he immediately ordered Li Quan's troops and horses who came to help in the battle to deploy defense in Hongjie Mountain south of Huzhou to block the attack of Gao Huaiyuan's army.

After Gao Huaiyuan led the army out of Deqing County, he sent a large number of hard detectives, that is, armed scouts out of front of the army, to investigate the situation of Jiwang's army in front of the head.

Soon the hard detective reported to Gao Huaiyuan, saying that the whereabouts of the rebels had been found in the area of Hongjie Mountain, so Gao Huaiyuan immediately raised troops and rushed to the direction of Hongjie Mountain, and the two sides finally made contact in a place called Ruijia Village near Hongjie Mountain.

Gao Huaiyuan rode on his yellow hussar, wearing a brand-new trap armor, wearing a hood with a hideous bronze mask, holding his glaive broadsword given by Meng Heng, hanging a Liuyun scimitar tailored for him by Zhou Botong on his waist, a finely made two-stone hard bow on the horse's back, two pots of carved feather flying feather arrows hanging on the side of the saddle, and a new set of three-edged flying knives under the ribs, not including the two-barreled handcuffs in his arms, which seemed to be majestic and almost armed to the teeth.

Since the Battle of Huangzhou, he has never been so clothed in battle, as a general, the battlefield is the most attractive place for him, and in the past few years, he has to be careful in Lin'an City to do those things that he does not like, and say something against his will in front of some officials every day.

And now King Ji's rebellion has given him a chance to go into battle again, but this time his expedition does not excite him, he is more willing to face those foreign enemies on the battlefield, and now he has to lead troops to kill those compatriots who are Han people like him, but this expedition he has no choice, when he is moving towards his ideal step by step, he will never allow King Ji to break his dream.

Although psychologically he sympathized with Zhao Hong's experience, but the matter has come to this, Zhao Hong led the troops to make a rebellion, which is a threat to the Great Song Dynasty, Zhao Hong can be said to be also for his own selfishness, so he raised the army to make a rebellion, and he did this, it is likely to push the Southern Song Dynasty into a state of division, once the Southern Song Dynasty evolved into a protracted civil war, wouldn't it be more equivalent to giving people a handle, waiting for the Mongol army to attack and completely annihilate?

Therefore, he can't forgive Zhao Hong for this kind of behavior this time, even if Zhao Hong is wronged, this time he must destroy Zhao Hong by thunderous means, otherwise, all his ideals will come to naught.

For the rebels of King Ji who sent troops to attack Huzhou City this time, although Gao Huaiyuan did not have many troops, he was full of confidence, he did not count on other soldiers and horses, just with the five thousand holy guards trained under his command, he had enough confidence to defeat King Ji's rebels, no matter how many he surpassed himself, this was no longer in his eyes.

When he stood on a high slope, he raised his eyes and looked at the marching holy army at the bottom of the slope, only to see five thousand holy guards marching in unison steps, rumbling footsteps, like a torrent of steel moving forward, everyone's face showed a calm, without the kind of nervous and panicked expression in the general army when facing the war, which is inseparable from Gao Huaiyuan's actual combat confrontation training in the army over the past year, and the long-term confrontation training has made these soldiers accustomed to this kind of thing. Therefore, the military appearance is calm.

Including the generals in the Holy Protector Army, they were also full of confidence at this time, calmly straddled the horse, and marched steadily forward with their team.

Such a military appearance, so that the generals of the other armies accompanying them were sideways, compared with the military appearance of the Holy Protector Army, these generals who accompanied the expedition were secretly ashamed, and at the same time, they had to secretly admire Gao Huaiyuan's ability to train soldiers.

"Captain Gao, this time our troops are not enough to attack Huzhou, why does Lord Gao greet him to come and attack immediately? It's better to wait for reinforcements to arrive, and then gather enough troops before attacking, so as not to make a mistake! Gao Huaiyuan had just stood still on the high slope and was watching the march of his army when a civilian official on horseback chased him and asked him.

Gao Huaiyuan didn't want to see this guy very much, because this guy was the so-called prison army sent to him by Shi Miyuan according to the usual practice, and he knew that this guy was Shi Miyuan's subordinate without asking, and this time he set off from Lin'an, and this guy chattered in his ear about the lack of troops, for fear that he was not the opponent of King Ji.

But this guy is the nominal prison army, and Gao Huaiyuan can't offend him too much, so he shook his head and said: "Lord Zhong, don't worry, although King Ji seems to have a little more troops now, most of his subordinates are rabble, and they rush into the army, and they are not coordinated with each other, so although the strength of this army is not as large as theirs, it is not necessarily not their opponent!"

At present, Lord Zhong also knows that the soldiers are fast, and we must pacify the changes in Xiachuan as soon as possible, otherwise the night will be long and dreamy, and it is likely to evolve into a protracted war! In that case, for our Great Song Dynasty, it will plunge the Great Song Dynasty into endless wars!

With this official here, please rest assured! The hard detective in front found that a large number of rebels appeared, and it is not safe here, so please go to the back and press the formation! Let's see how this rebel army is crushed! ”

Gao Huaiyuan patiently explained to this guy surnamed Zhong that as soon as this guy heard that there were rebels in front, he immediately ran to the back and didn't dare to come to the front again, and this time he was ordered by Shi Miyuan to be the supervisor in the army, and he didn't dare to point fingers too much, because he himself understood very well that Gao Huaiyuan is now also a red man in the eyes of Shi Miyuan and today's saints, and the war still depends on him Gao Huaiyuan, not his surname Zhong, so although he was a little worried, he didn't dare to go too far.

After Gao Huaiyuan watched the surnamed Zhong run away, he secretly said in his heart that he was a coward, and he ran away when he was scared, relying on such a person to supervise the army, he could win the battle with a fart! Fortunately, this guy is not too excessive, otherwise, the gods may not be able to win the battle!

He took a deep breath of cold air, then pointed his horsewhip forward and asked, "Where is it ahead?" Where are the rebels gathering now? ”

Zhao Futang, who was behind him, immediately came to his side, pulled the reins of the horse and replied: "Ahead is the mountain pass of Hongjie Mountain, there is a village called Ruijia Village here, and the hard detective came to report that Ruijia Village has been occupied by the Huzhou rebels, and the rebels have gathered troops near the mountain pass, about 6,000 people, trying to block us to the south of Hongjie Mountain!" ”

Gao Huaiyuan nodded and asked, "What is the origin of the enemy army?" Who is the enemy general, can he ever find out? ”

Zhao Futang immediately nodded and said: "It is not clear who the enemy general is at the moment, but according to the observation of hard detectives, this army should be Li Quan's Northern Army, judging from the enemy's formation, it should not be underestimated, it should be a veteran, they have already controlled several commanding heights, and our hard attack will be at a disadvantage!" ”

Gao Huaiyuan nodded, in the end, he still has to meet with Li Quan's soldiers and horses for a while, Li Quan's guy is really opportunistic, he actually came to wade into this troubled water, wanting to help King Ji win the world, and he didn't want to think about whether King Ji could achieve this big thing!

"The order went down, the whole army accelerated and rushed to Ruijia Village in the afternoon, and ordered Tang Zhen to lead the army to capture Ruijia Village first, and wait for us to see the situation! Tell our brothers of the Holy Protector Army that this is their first time in battle to kill the enemy, and they must not panic when they are in battle, and obey military orders, this battle is related to the reputation of the Holy Protector Army in the future, and no one should be afraid to fight and hold back! Violators will be killed! Gao Huaiyuan immediately ordered.

After Zhao Futang received the order, he immediately rode his horse downhill and began to convey Gao Huaiyuan's order, and soon there was a shout from the Holy Protector Army: "Our army is mighty!" ”

Thousands of people shouted at the same time, and suddenly the sound swept over the earth like rolling thunder, rumbling into the distance, and even the armies following the Holy Protector Army also shouted after hearing the cry of the Holy Protector.

So the march, which was a little dull, suddenly became active, and at the same time boosted the morale of the whole army, and the speed of the march was also accelerated.

And Tang Zhen, the young general who was ordered to attack first, was also a young man from Crouching Tiger Village, and after hearing the order to let him lead the army to attack first, he immediately greeted the 400 infantry troops under his command, and shouted: "The brothers of the forward battalion have listened, and Lord Gao has an order, so that I will rush to Ruijia Village in front before noon, and take Ruijia Village in one fell swoop, this is the trust of Lord Gao to us, and those who dare not use their lives will not be able to get along with their own heads, cheer me up, let's go!" ”

After saying that, the hundreds of people in the forward battalion immediately raised their arms and shouted, then sorted out their armor, and ran towards the front after Tang Zhen's back.

After Tang Zhen saw the situation in Ruijia Village, he immediately ordered his subordinates to divide into three teams and attack Ruijia Village from three roads at the same time.

Ruijia Village is a small village, but since it was occupied by the rebels yesterday, the rebels were afraid that they would escape and report their situation, and all the people in the village were killed by the rebels, and there were no villagers except the rebels.

And stationed in Ruijia Village is Li Quanjun's two people, these people are just as outposts are arranged in Ruijia Village, they use the houses on the periphery of Ruijia Village, lay out a line of defense, trying to block the attack of the imperial army here, of course, they did not measure their strength to think that they were only more than 200 people, they can block the imperial army, just want to block it again, so they retreated into Hongjie Mountain, but also want to see how the combat effectiveness of the southern army on the side of the imperial court, in their opinion, although the southern army is well-equipped, But they are not brave and good at fighting, compared to their veterans who rolled in a pool of blood with Li Quan, the Southern Army is not terrible.
