Leaving 10,000 people to Li Yi, Di Qing took the rest of the men and horses to kill them all the way north as fast as possible. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 What he wants is speed, Di Qing knows that as long as he is fast enough, he can defeat Dongying's troops before they are assembled!

On a small island about ten miles northwest of here, there were 500 soldiers of the Dongying people. These 500 people belong to Tsushima, whether these soldiers are in the middle of the group of Dongying people who were defeated by him just now, Di Qing doesn't know, he didn't go to interrogate those injured and captured Dongying people, but directly sent troops to intervene, if not, continue to the north, if there is, kill them.

Regarding the current distribution of Dongying's troops, Di Qing had a detailed map in his hand, and he asked Liu Ping and Zhang Zhong to chase along the direction of the retreat of the Dongying people who had just taken the lead, but he dispersed his forces and swept away all the forces of the Daimyo and generals of Dongying along the way.

Gao Yingxi began to pursue after getting off the boat, the Dongying people in front of him were running away frantically, and the Song army followed behind desperately chasing, catching up with one and killing one, catching up with two and hacking a pair to death, it was really enjoyable.

The long-term weight-bearing running training allowed their physical strength to last until the evening, when they couldn't run, and the warrior at the front fell limply on the slightly damp ground after cutting a Dongying man.

With a leader, the people behind him stopped lying down or sitting.

Gao Yingxi really didn't have the strength anymore, so he found the stone and sat down and took two breaths, looking around, in addition to his own team, there were actually some brothers from other teams who also followed. However, what is worse than them is that most of these teams are running without formation.

Gao Yingxi stood up after a pause and shouted loudly: "Brothers, get up quickly, it's too damp on this ground to sleep." Set up a tent and boil some hot water, wash your feet and rest. ”

Although those soldiers were already very tired, they didn't want to get up at all at this time, but after Gao Yingxi said it, whether it was the people in his team or those from other teams next to him, they all stood up, and the soldiers of the Song Army knew that sleeping in such a damp place would rot the next day. If you don't wash your feet, you'll get blisters tomorrow.

When Gao Yingxi was lighting a fire, a big man Song Jun came over and patted him on the shoulder: "Brother, I am the commander under General Zhang Zhong, my troops have run away, can I follow you tomorrow?" ”

Gao Yingxi looked at him: "Hehe, you are older than my official, so let's do it, I will follow you tomorrow, and we will obey your command." ”

The man punched him lightly: "Don't talk about this, I can see it clearly behind you today, you are really fucking capable of fighting, so I said it, I'll go and gather those who are not your team, tomorrow you take the lead, and I will press you." ”

Gao Yingxi nodded: "Cheng, eldest brother's surname?" I hear your accent is from Bianjing, right? ”

The man nodded: "My name is Shi Kun, from Bianjing, and I have been a soldier for seven years." ”

When Gao Yingxi heard that it was from Bianjing, he immediately became interested: "Bianjing's? I have a lot of brothers who are also in Bianjing, and when I go back, I will ask my eldest brother to come and sit together, and we will have two drinks. ”

Shi Kun laughed, and then looked a little sad: "Cheng, seriously, I haven't been home for a few years, and I don't know if the neighbors still recognize me." ”

Gao Ying was stunned when he heard this: "Won't it?" Our military camp is only twenty miles away from Bianjing, you are from Bianjing, why haven't you returned home for a few years. ”

Shi Kun was a little embarrassed: "Hehe, when I was young, I was ignorant, and I brought a lot of trouble to my neighbors, so I really didn't have the face to go back." ”

He said as he opened the strand of hair on his forehead: "See?" My brother was sent here. ”

Gao Yingxi didn't care, there were many soldiers like this in the Song Dynasty, although many soldiers were turned into second-line soldiers during that disarmament, but most of the people like Shi Kun who liked to fight were retained. Moreover, at that time, Shi Kun was already a commander under Di Qing, and as far as the commanders at the grassroots level were concerned, he was a relatively outstanding one.

After the great disarmament, he was demoted by one level and became the head of the capital, and later came up again after the two battles of pacifying the king of Xiangyang and pacifying the party.

Gao Yingxi lit the fire: "It's done, brother, you go and gather people, tomorrow morning at dawn, let's continue to chase forward, I hope these boys don't run too far tonight." ”

When he got up the next morning, Gao Yingxi had just chased ten miles and found traces of those Dongying people resting at night yesterday. His heart was filled with remorse!

Ten miles away, if you were holding on to it yesterday, don't do much, it won't take half an hour to catch up with these people!

Seeing the situation here, Shi Kun also concluded that those Dongying people lived here last night, but he was a little worried now, and walked up to Gao Yingxi and said, "Brother, the troops behind are too far away from us, are you waiting for them?" ”

Gao Yingxi touched a pile of charcoal ash, and it was a little hot, so he shouldn't have gone far. Raise your eyes and stare ahead: "I haven't gone far yet, chase!" ”

Shi Kun said again: "They could have sent someone to run forward yesterday, in that case, their troops can be ready now, shall we wait?" ”

Gao Yingxi shook his head very resolutely: "Don't wait, catch up." ”

More than 200 Song troops did not wait for reinforcements from behind, and under the leadership of Gao Yingxi, they chased all the way along the traces left by those Dongying people.

When they were chasing them until noon, suddenly a great river crossed in front of them, and there was only one wooden bridge over the river, and on the opposite side there were more than 3,000 enemies who were preparing to tear down the bridge!

Gao Yingxi was not afraid of the number of enemies on the opposite side, of course, he would not let them tear down the bridge, if the bridge could not be saved, then the troops behind would have to take a long detour, or spend some time building a pontoon bridge to come over.

He lifted the knife in his hand: "Put the crossbow!" ”

More than fifty crossbowmen were unable to inflict extensive damage on the opponent despite their continuous firing, but they were clever enough to choose the enemy at the bridgehead as their target.

"Kill!" Gao Yingxi faced thousands of enemies on the opposite side and rushed forward at once.

Of course, Shi Kun also knows the important surname of this bridge, as long as he can keep this bridge, then it is worth it for more than 200 people on his side to die in battle. The general said that what is needed now is time, and he will do whatever it takes to gain time.

Just as Shi Kun thought, although he was very tired from running last night, Fujiwara Kunzaburo still sent a Toei samurai with better physical strength to continue running forward and report to the daimyo territory in front.

Now they are facing more than 2,000 people who have just arrived, in addition to the enemies who have fled all the way that they have killed.

Seeing that Song Jun still dared to rush over and fight by himself with so few people, whether it was Fujiwara Kunzaburo or that Prince Zunren, or every Dongying samurai here, they all felt that they had been greatly insulted.

Anger erupted in Prince Zunren's eyes, and the sullen anger that had been chased for a day finally found a place to vent: "Kill them all!" ”

The two sides fought on the bridge, and the sword and shield hands of the Song army erected a shield wall at the first time, firmly resisting the Dongying people who wanted to rush over.

And the Dongying people also temporarily gave up the action of demolishing the bridge at this time, in their opinion, the other party only has more than 200 people, and it seems that there are not enough warriors to burn the bridge at this time.

For a while, those brave Dongying warriors rushed towards the bridge one by one, and after being stabbed dozens of people in the blink of an eye by the spears that the Song army stretched out from behind the shield, they found that they had no way to stop the advance of this shield wall.

"Shoot the arrows! Shoot them with a bow and arrow! ”

This group of Dongying people came prepared, even if Dongying's strategic materials were in short supply, there were still dozens of bows and arrows.

The Song army began to suffer casualties, and when the crossbowmen saw this situation, they immediately aimed at the Dongying people who were armed with bows and arrows.

The bow and crossbow of the Song army was also the best long-range weapon of this era, after Zeng Gongliang and their many improvements, it was very convenient to wind, the rate of fire was very fast, and the accuracy and range were much higher than the bow and arrow.

After all, not everyone in Toei can shoot down the porcelain bowl on top of someone's head from dozens of steps away like Miyamoto Rokuro. The archers fought with the Song crossbowmen for a while, and gradually lost the battle.

Gao Yingxi's pressure eased a lot, the casualties of the Dongying people were far greater than those of the Song army, and they also had a formation, but their formation could not be compared with the Song army. And except for a long knife, only a few of them had shields in their hands, which were still wooden shields, and there was no iron wrapping at all.

If according to Bai Yutang's requirements, such a shield should be pierced with two shots.

Fujiwara Kunzaburo saw that the situation was not right, this bridge was too narrow, although there were many people on his side, but most of them could only stand behind and watch the excitement, and they couldn't give full play to the advantage of numbers, and said at the moment: "Your Royal Highness, let them come over and fight, if we continue to fight like this, we will be killed by them one by one." ”

Prince Zunren thought about it too, and hurriedly ordered: "Let the Song army come over!" Come back! ”

In the past, it meant being besieged by others, which Gao Yingxi knew very well. But if you don't go over, the other party will tear down the bridge. So after seeing the Dongying people retreating, he didn't think about it for long at all, and immediately shouted: "Kill!" ”

More than 200 Song soldiers shouted in unison: "Kill!" ”

They were marching forward on the corpses of the Dongying people, releasing every emotion in their bodies with bursts of shouts, their faces cold and hideous, without the slightest fear.

To live is to kill the enemy.

To kill the enemy is to live.

It's so simple to go to the battlefield, there's nothing else to think about. Nation, family, country, all aside. Don't say it's for the emperor, although Gao Yingxi has seen Renzong a few times, he will definitely not think about Renzong's kind face at this time.

He is a warrior, and he will fight the enemy and win the battle! Watching the opponent tremble under his knife is even more enjoyable than being an emperor!

They were victorious the moment the spear was poked into the enemy's chest, and when they fell, there was nothing to think about.

Blood flowed down the bridge into the river, and a rather spectacular scene appeared. With that bridge as the dividing line, the water of the river upstream was so clear, but after crossing the bridge deck, it turned scarlet.

The Song army killed the bridge, and the Dongying people besieged them even more frantically.

In order to ensure that the terrain at the head of the bridge is under his control, Gao Yingxi is always unwilling to retreat! So far in the battle, nearly 500 Dongying people have died, and nearly half of the Song soldiers have fallen to the ground. They were still fighting, the slashed limbs still twitching, and the torsos squirmed on the ground from spears.

A soldier of the Song Army fell beside Gao Yingxi, foaming blood in his mouth, his eyes staring at Gao Yingxi, as if he wanted to say something. Gao Yingxi slashed down with a knife and hacked the Song soldier to death.

It's not cruelty, it's mercy. No one can save him, and he can only experience the pain of death when he lives.
