Chapter Ninety-Nine: A Two-Way Attack
Chapter Ninety-Nine: Two Ways of Attacking
Ten miles south of Jixian Village, there is a land boundary, called Tujue Ridge.
Tujue Ridge is just an ordinary Tu Ridge, and it is not very high, but now, a group of uninvited guests have come to the Ridge.
"Sir, it's such a fierce fight over there, should we go up and help?"
On the top of the soil ridge, there were two people standing, one was Jin Cicada, and the other was Jiang Jie.
Jiang Jie shook his head and said lightly: "You don't need to go over, let's just stay here, this is the only way for the traitors, we just need to wait here, and the traitors will escape and destroy them in a while." ”
After speaking, he raised his head and looked at the starry sky, and muttered to himself: "I didn't expect Pei Xuan to be so good at using soldiers, I underestimated him." ”
It turned out that Jiang Jie originally thought that after Pei Xuan arrived in Xiaofeng County, he would launch a surprise attack on Jixianzhuang and kill the rebels by surprise. But with Pei Xuan's troops, it is absolutely impossible to kill all the rebels, and the rebels occupy a favorable location, even if Pei Xuan's people win, they will suffer heavy losses, and finally the rebels fled south.
The current Tujue Ridge, no matter what, must be the only way for the rebels, because as long as the officers and soldiers fight, the rebels must run away, and it is impossible to stay here anymore. Since the rebels will definitely take this road, Jiang Jie came up with a way to hide his troops in Tujue Ridge, and when the rebels arrived, he suddenly attacked.
Jiang Jie didn't bring many people, because there were more than 1,000 people under Lord Yue's guards, and Jiang Jie brought out 500 and came here to ambush, and with him, there were also Jin Chan and Li Haoquan.
The city of Hangzhou is still closed with four gates, and it is not allowed to enter or exit, of course, Yue Su's subordinates can enter and exit at will. The rebels in the city, although they found that Lord Yue's protectors were moving, but you couldn't get out of the city, even if you felt that it was inappropriate, you could only watch.
Jiang Jie arrived at Tujue Ridge last night, and it was just the right time, only one day after the ambush, the rebels took action and fled towards this side. Jiang Jie saw that there were more than 4,000 rebels, and there were many people, and he thought that there would be a tough battle to fight, but Pei Xuan's cavalry suddenly came out, and the traitors killed were unbearable, with heavy casualties.
Don't look at the soil ridge is not very high, but it is still condescending, Jiang Jie can see everything that happens in the distance through the stars in the sky. As expected, under the charge of the cavalry, the rebels had already lost an inch, only a small number of them dragged back to resist, and the rest all began to flee to this side.
But it's not so easy to escape, in the process of escaping, the cavalry makes a charge from time to time, cavalry fighting, it's about mobility, you have to avoid strong, you want me to confront your flanks with you, attack your weak links, anyway, you can't catch up with me.
update
More than 4,000 rebels have now been killed, and the situation is a mess, and those old and weak children are running around. On the other hand, looking at the cavalry under Pei Xuan, it was still orderly, lined up in formation, and rushed back and forth to kill.
But with the passage of time, the flaws in the number of people gradually appeared, although the cavalry said that they could fight wherever they wanted, but after all, they could take care of the east and not the west, and the rebels scattered and fled, how could they kill this little man.
Seeing that many rebels were rushing towards Tujue Ridge, Jiang Jie smiled slightly and said, "It's time for us to do it, let's go down and tell the brothers to prepare and do things according to the original plan." ”
Mi Ke and her husband Jian Rang are quite good at martial arts, but the methods of the rivers and lakes are the means of the rivers and lakes after all, and the confrontation with the cavalry is not useful at all. They can only take the people in the village and flee south, their task is very simple, save their strength, and leave with the people in the village. For them, as long as they cross the Tujue Ridge, they can scatter and escape, and at that time, no matter how fast the cavalry is, it is not a dream to kill all the people.
Finally came to the bottom of the Tujue Ridge, the terrain of the Tujue Ridge is like this, the left side is not high Tuling, and at the foot of the Tuling is a ten-person-wide dirt road. The terrain is not complicated, and they know it well after living here for so many years.
Jane asked her husband and wife to rush to the front, and walked along the dirt road, their husband and wife had horses, and if they really wanted to save their lives, they could leave the others behind. But if you leave everyone behind and leave like this, it is estimated that when Dad comes back, he will be angry and kill them all. Therefore, they did not turn their backs on the middle man, but rode on their horses, and from time to time turned back to direct the people behind them to come this way.
Along the Tujue Ridge, I didn't walk a mile, and a group of people suddenly appeared in front. The group lined up in a neat formation, with shields in hand, blocking the way.
Seeing such a situation, Jian Rang was taken aback, and secretly begged himself: "Pei Xuan's men and horses, when did they come around here, it's impossible, the people in the village are always staring at them, and they haven't noticed any changes in them?" ”
Jane Rang wondered in her heart, but the people blocking the way were obviously officers and soldiers, and although they were killed and scattered by the cavalry, their combat strength still existed. Seeing that there are not many officers and soldiers, Jian Rang doesn't pay attention to it, and now he has to fight. He shouted, drew his sword, and led the young rebel behind him to kill.
The soldiers who stood in front of them could have 300 men, and the other 200 were hidden on the dirt slope. One by one, they held firearms in their hands, waiting for the order to strike. Jiang Jie saw that the man on horseback was the leader of the other party, and ordered unceremoniously: "Hit the man on horseback!" ”
"Bang ......"
At the command, the firecracker opened fire without mercy.
Accompanied by the sound of gunshots, the screams sounded, and Jian Rang was not cast from iron to steel, especially these firecrackers, most of them were aimed at him to shoot Yin's guns, and a row of gunshots rang out, and Jian Rang was directly beaten into a sieve.
Seeing that Jane was killed, Mi Ke was red-eyed at that time, don't look at it, he already knew that he had been ambushed, but he didn't care, gritted his silver teeth, drew out his weapon, and shouted: "Brothers, we are surrounded, and there is a kind of rush with me to the dirt slope and kill all the officers and soldiers there!" ”
The traitors are fierce, especially at this time, how can they not fight hard, the big guy followed Mi Jun, swarmed up, and rushed straight to the dirt slope.
The soil slope of Tujue Ridge is very gentle, and it cannot be said that it is a natural barrier that is easy to defend and difficult to attack. The rebels rushed upward, but the firecrackers above were unhurried, filled the projectiles, and hit again. For these firecrackers, it doesn't matter to anyone else, who rides a horse first. Mi Jun rode on the horse, and there were several other heads who also rode on the horse, such a big goal, plus it was uphill, and the horse speed was not particularly fast, so it was easy to fight.
"Bang ......"
There was another row of gunshots, Mi Jun was shot in the chest, and he was thrown off the horse, and there were more than forty people who fell with her. Seeing the man on horseback, Jiang Jie concluded that there must be a leader among them, so he stood up immediately and shouted: "The rebel leader Yinzi has been killed, brothers, rush with me!" ”
Jiang Jie took the lead, and the soldiers put down their firearms, carrying steel knives, and rushed down shouting. As soon as they charged, the officers and soldiers who were blocking the road also rushed over. The two strikes together, and the rebels are fighting together, fighting in one group.
Mi Jun and Jian Rang were both killed, and the rebels can be regarded as leaderless, don't look at the hand-to-hand combat is their strength, but at this step, how can there be the slightest will to fight.
Although there were many rebels, they were mixed with the old and weak, and the leader died, and the morale was greatly reduced. Soon the officers and troops had the upper hand, and the rebels could only rely on their fighting spirit to barely resist Yin.
At this moment, Pei Xuan's cavalry rushed over, and when they saw someone robbing and killing here, they were quite puzzled, after all, the chief soldier didn't tell them that there was a Yin team ambushing here. Since it is fighting with the traitors, it goes without saying that it must be the people of Chaoyinting, and everyone is their own people, at this time, they must have the same hatred. The cavalry swarmed up and joined the war group, and the rebels became even more embarrassed, crying for their fathers and mothers, and they were confused. It didn't take long for the rebels to lose their rules, some fought on their own, some took the opportunity to flee for their lives, anyway, it was a mess. Victory was already in front of Jiang Jie.
After a night of bloody fighting, the battle came to an end, and after killing the scattered rebels, it finally quieted down. Of the more than 4,000 rebels, it cannot be said that there are no survivors, and it is estimated that thousands of them can escape, and the rest are all killed. Of course, the officers and soldiers were also injured, and Jiang Jie's side lost 80 people and wounded more than 170. The cavalry on Pei Xuan's side suffered relatively few casualties, only more than thirty dead and more than a dozen wounded.
On the other side of Pei Xuan's camp, Pei Xuan had not moved before, just stood on the command platform and watched. Later, it was determined that the cavalry had scattered the enemy, so he ordered an attack and wiped out all the rebels outside the camp. Uncle Yin is leading a death squad, of course he will not spare his life, but Pei Xuan's elite is too powerful, and the charge is very methodical, more than a dozen people can form a formation and kill the enemy group, how can the rebels resist, and they were cut down to the ground one after another. It also relied on the fact that this group of rebels was not an idle bandit, but also had the heart of death, desperately resisted Yin, and the two sides were killed and injured by each other, and the fight ended in the early morning. All the traitors were killed, and nearly 200 people died on Pei Xuan's side, and the old guy was in pain, he really didn't expect that the traitors could be so tenacious.
The battle at both ends was over, and Jiang Jie came with the cavalry to see Pei Xuan. As soon as Pei Xuan heard that he was Lord Yue's staff, who was specially here to ambush the rebels, he was not only admired, but also very respectful and polite to Jiang Jie. Don't rush anything else, the son is still in Yue Su's hands, how can he not be lazy with Lord Yue's cronies.
Next, join forces in one place, clean up the battlefield, and take care of the aftermath. In the pile of dead people, there are also traitors alive, and the bones are not given a chance to interrogate at all, and they all kill themselves, but a few children and children do not have the courage, and with a little coercion, they will reveal the truth. How could they not know much, one is to know the destination of their escape, Quzhou Sanchuan porcelain shop, and the other is to know that among the head Yinzi who died in battle, one is the daughter of the lord and the other is the son-in-law, but the lord is not at home. As for the rest, I don't know anything.
In Jixian Village, officers and soldiers found a large amount of gold and silver, which amounted to more than 3 million taels. Faced with such a large number, the soldiers looked at the eyes that lit up. But this is not a family here, Pei Xuan didn't dare to leave the silver, packed the car, and escorted to Hangzhou with Jiang Jie.
