In the face of the high morale of the enemy army, Chong Shiheng did not panic at all, and still had a calm expression, as if he was winning.

At this time, the number of enemy cavalry in the convergence again exceeded 10,000, and the number of soldiers was almost equal to that of the infantry battalion of the field army, which could attack from all directions at any time.

At this critical moment, Chong Shiheng did not let the cavalry battalion help, but let them bypass the enemy cavalry and directly surround Huyanyu's Chinese military tent to prevent it from escaping. Hu Yanyi sent all the cavalry, and there were only nearly a thousand guards around him at the moment, but this guard was different from those herdsmen who were temporarily recruited, they were real warriors, and they were not weak, and they didn't take the Song Dynasty cavalry too seriously.

Hu Yanzhuo believed that as long as his troops defeated the opposing infantry, he could destroy these Song Dynasty cavalry by turning around, and he was still laughing in his heart that the Song Dynasty generals were incompetent and could not fight, so they didn't use the cavalry.

The party cavalry, who was having a good time, didn't notice at all that a hill rising behind the Song army's formation was slowly moving forward.

"All soldiers obey! Prepare for the double circle array...... Initiate! Seeing that the time was almost up, Chong Shiheng decisively ordered the battlefield to change formations.

The 10 battalions of the infantry battalion of the field army were divided into two parts, and the 5 brigades together formed a large circle, with the shield men on the outside and the crossbowmen on the inside.

After the infantry formation was completed, the party members were about to surround and break through, but they found that the near-bald monster had come out of the gap in the formation and was rushing towards him.

"Whew~~~~~"

The only heavy cavalry of the field army, the war elephant unit, finally appeared, and nearly a hundred war elephants rushed out along the gap in the army formation under the control of the elephant soldiers......

The huge size, heavy armor, and sharp fangs attached to the war elephant are like heavy tanks, easily chiseling through the opponent's formation when the enemy is stunned, and the soldiers on the war elephant are condescending, constantly raining arrows at the enemy. The war elephants were rampage unscrupulously, and no one in the party cavalry dared to beat their edge.

Chong Shiheng saw the opportunity and took advantage of the confusion of the enemy's formation, so he could order: "All the soldiers listen to the order, charge immediately!" Use the squad as a unit to strangle the enemy in close quarters...... Come on! ”

More than 10,000 field army infantry quickly turned into small dots, and the party cavalry was beaten wildly. I saw ten of them together, forming a small circle. The shield bearer is outside with a spear so that the enemy cannot get close. The crossbowmen hold the repeater crossbow and shoot wildly at the enemy, and the squad leader holding the divine arm crossbow picks those who are more brave to shoot at the enemy.

The cavalry, which originally relied on mobility to eat, was completely mired in the quagmire of entanglement with the infantry at the moment, unable to give full play to its strengths, unable to run if it wanted to, and even its command was disrupted. At this time, the advantages of the field army's peacetime squad training came out, and it was inconvenient for everyone to command, but the soldiers of the field army could form a squad formation under the leadership of the squad leader and cause effective damage to the enemy.

The whole battle lasted from early morning to dusk, and the party cavalry, which was inferior in weapons and equipment, fell into a melee and decreased at a very rapid rate. More than 20,000 party cavalry fought by this time, and less than 5,000 men and horses remained, and the field army inflicted huge casualties on them several times, which made them deeply afraid.

This special Song Dynasty army changed their impression of the Song Dynasty army as weak and unbearable, hunger and fear made their fighting spirit gradually fade, and finally some people could not support it, threw away their weapons and knelt down to surrender, and others saw this and followed suit......

Hu Yanyi is not stupid, seeing that the plot is not according to his own director at all, the cavalry actually let the infantry be defeated when the number of people is equal, it is unforgivable! But in any case, survival is the most important thing, and he immediately gathered his most elite escort team to prepare for a breakthrough......

Hu Yanyi's elite escort team is indeed not covered, their equipment and combat skills are much better than those soldiers composed of ordinary herdsmen, plus Zhao Yingyi has always strictly forbidden the light cavalry of the field army to do any tricks such as charging into battle, which really made Hu Yanyi rush out of the encirclement and leave. However, he was not comfortable, and in order to break through, he left nearly half of his guards behind, and fled in a hurry with more than 500 people.

When Zhao Yingfu heard that Hu Yanyuan had run away, he felt a little regretful, but he didn't care very much. After all, in the era of cold weapons, when the strength of the troops is not much different, even if you have a calculus or an unintentional, it is unrealistic to think of a non-leaking encirclement and annihilation. Zhao Fuyi thought about it, and still ordered Zhi Weizheng to lead the cavalry in pursuit, and at the same time let the special combat team try their luck.

Hu Yanqian took the remnants of the defeated generals to run all the way, and Zhi Weizheng also selected some elite soldiers to chase after him, and the big guys were very tired after fighting for a day, and this time was the time to compete for will, to see who couldn't bear it first. In this way, you chase after each other, and the cavalry of the field army will shoot a few of them when they have the opportunity.

When it was getting dark, Hu Yanyuan panicked and ran into the mountains. The sky slowly darkened, and Zhi Weizheng did not have many troops, and he was afraid of encountering an accident at night, so for the sake of safety, he found a safe enemy and set up camp.

Hu Yanqian continued to run for a while, and found that the Song Dynasty army did not chase after him, and finally was able to catch his breath, only to find that he seemed to have run the wrong way, and the mountain was high and dense, and he couldn't figure out the direction. So I decided to take a night's rest first, continue to run tomorrow, counted the number of people, and found that I was planted this time, and there were less than 400 people left with me, and some of them were injured.

After arranging the soldiers who were encamped and put up guards, Hu Yanyi returned to his tent and sat on the bed in a daze for a long time, only to hear a soft sigh......

In the Zhewei account, Jin Taizheng was talking to him about tea, and Zhao Yingyou ordered that no alcohol could be drunk on the battlefield, so everyone could only replace wine with tea: "General Zhe, have you taken a closer look?" Huyanyu, that kid is in the mountains? ”

"Don't worry, Elder Jin, we have been hanging them, following them all the way, and harassing them according to His Highness's methods, this will see that we are too tired to get up when we stop! Hahaha...... "Zhi Wei said happily to Jintai while tasting tea.

"General Zhe has worked hard, let's see the performances of the sons and daughters! His Royal Highness specially gave them this opportunity to practice their hands, and there are not many such opportunities! Jintai sighed as he touched his beard.

"Hehe, that's that...... Come on, let's drink tea and watch the play. This tea has finally come from His Royal Highness, and Jin Lao can drink more. As he spoke, he poured a cup of tea for Jintai.

"Well, it's really good tea! Zhanzhao, the guests are all asleep, take your people to greet them well! Jintai took a sip of tea and said to Zhanzhao next to him.

"Yes, Instructor! The last will go. ”

"Brother Han Zhang, Brother Xu Qing, you two are doing good work, those dark whistles will be handed over to the two of you, and the others will go in with me, go in quietly, and don't make a noise." Zhan Zhao pointed to the reconnaissance information and instructed everyone.

"Exhibition team, this job is handed over to the two of us, you can rest assured! When we signal you, do it! Han Zhang said with a grin.

"There are two brothers, try not to alarm the enemy when the others go in, and quickly kill the patrolling enemy. There are less than 400 people on the other side, so everyone has to do their work neatly. Subsequently, Zhan Zhaoyou specifically assigned the tasks of each squad.

In ancient times, due to dietary problems, there were many patients with night blindness, which seriously affected the army's night combat effectiveness. However, the 100 special fighters brought by Zhanzhao are all strictly screened and trained, and the night is no stranger to them.

Although Hu Yanqian carefully arranged the sentry, he did not think that the other party would conduct a large-scale night attack, in his opinion, night combat is very unwise, it is easy to cause chaos and let others take advantage of it.

Han Zhang and Xu Qing were divided into two ways, and they touched towards the sentries one by one, and after a while, the sound of birds learned by the two came.

When Zhan Zhao heard the code, he immediately led the rest of the people quietly into the enemy camp, and the teams ran towards their respective goals.

Several patrolling groups of soldiers were still walking at the same pace, and their tired minds and bodies made them lose some vigilance, and they were reimbursed by the obscene special combat team members for a rain of arrows before they could react. The other squads then rushed into their respective target tents and fired indiscriminately, when finally a scream alarmed the others, and everyone hurriedly got up, and just rushed out of the tent, and entertained them with a rain of arrows.

In a few moments, there was not a single one standing in the camp, except for a few guys who were rolling and screaming all over the ground. The special combat team vigilantly guarded the enemy and sent someone to inform Zhi Weizheng to come and capture the prisoners.

"Huyan old thief, don't surrender soon!" Zhan Zhao led people around Hu Yanyu's barracks and shouted loudly.

Hu Yanyu listened to the screams outside, and clearly knew that he was being attacked by a sneak attack, this time he completely failed, and he was finished, and he had no determination to commit suicide, so he could only walk out dejectedly.

Zhao benefited from sleeping until three poles in the sun before getting up and washing unhurriedly, rushed for half a month, and then fought a big battle, all the soldiers were very tired, after cleaning the battlefield, Zhao benefited everyone to take a day off, and he was busy sleeping lazily.

Chong Shiheng and Zhi Weizheng came to Zhao Yiyi and saluted before saluting, and reported: "Your Highness, we have won a great victory in this battle!" Now the results of the battle are counted, a total of nearly 10,000 enemies were destroyed, more than 8,000 people were captured, and some of the enemies ran away and were not caught. In addition, we also captured the old thief of Huyan alive, captured 8,000 intact war horses, and countless grains and grasses. ”

"What are the losses of our army?" Although Zhao Yingying was very concerned about the results of the battle, he was more concerned about the field army he created, and the loss was enough to feel distressed.

"Our own brothers also lost a lot, nearly 5,000 people were killed in battle, and most of them were infantrymen, of which more than 1,500 people were sacrificed and more than 1,000 were seriously wounded, and the rest can still continue to serve after they recover." Speaking of losses, Chong Shiheng's voice was obviously a lot lower, people's hearts are flesh and blood, and everyone gets along with each other day and night, and some of them have passed away like this, and grief is inevitable.

"Well, it's a pity that the king brought out those sacrificed brothers, but he didn't bring them back properly. This king is ashamed! Zhao Ying looked at the list of the dead, and there were still some familiar faces in his mind, and before he knew it, the tears in his eyes dripped onto the paper.

This scene was originally just a normal person's emotional outpouring, but in this special era, a special society, inadvertently spread among soldiers, and the impact was not so simple. Through this, the field army has slowly condensed the military spirit of unity, bravery, dedication, and loyalty that an army should have.

After all, Chong Shiheng is a person of this era, he has seen too many lives and deaths, and he cleaned up his mood and comforted: "How can there be immortals in war, if in the past, let's not talk about annihilating them, if we don't be annihilated by them, we will burn high incense, Your Highness doesn't have to blame yourself, you have done a good job!" Your Highness is so kind, I believe that the brothers will also be pleased if they have spirits in heaven! ”

Zhao Yingying touched away his tears and said: "This king is a lot of feelings for a while, you continue to report!"

Chong Shiheng nodded, looked at the record and continued: "In addition, our army consumes more arrows, and this time it used almost 300,000 arrows, and the soldiers lost so little, all relying on these arrows to give the enemy great damage!" ”

After listening to the report, Zhao Ying nodded with satisfaction and said: "The others are not bad, similar to what this king expected, it seems that you have not been lazy in the past two years." You should count your exploits, discuss a reward procedure, and reward the meritorious soldiers. In addition, the list of fallen soldiers must be carefully counted, and their pensions must be sent to their families one by one. As for the disabled soldiers, they will be rewarded twice as much as usual, and the king will be responsible for their future lives in the future. Let them rest assured, take good care of their injuries, Da Song will never forget them! ”

"Yes! Your Highness, the last general must obey the orders and do a good job as a soldier, if you have any questions, you just need to find the last general. Chong Shiheng lined his chest and reassured: "In addition, the war elephant army reported that the war elephant is not suitable for fighting in cold areas, although this time the war elephant has been fully prepared, the war elephant is clothed in cotton cloth, and the camp is still warm by fire, but the war elephant is still unwell. ”

Zhao Yingying listened, frowned and said: "This is a big problem, after the war, we should summarize it in detail, and problems like this should be specially explained." This time it was the king's negligence, but fortunately it didn't make a big mistake, if there was a problem at the critical moment, we would be more than lucky this time. In addition, the battle report should also be reported to the imperial court as soon as possible, we have been out for so long, so as not to worry my father. ”

"Your Highness, can you take a look at this battle report? If it's all right, the last general will send it out. Chong Shiheng took out the battle report he had written with Zhi Weizheng and showed it to Zhao Yingying.

"That's it! It is also good to make the old stubborns in the court sober up. After reading it, Zhao Ying said to the two: "This king sees that everyone is almost repaired, so arrange for the class teacher to return to the dynasty as soon as possible!" ”

"The last general will go and prepare, please Your Highness later!"
