Chapter 359: Fight to the Death

As a result of Yang Zaixing's frenzy, there was the most heroic scene of the Song Dynasty soldiers in the ten-year Northern Expedition of Shaoxing.

Yang Zaixing rode into battle alone, and wanted to find out Wanyan's vulture in the army.

Didn't Jin Jun want to take advantage of the void to kill Yue Fei, at this time, Yang Zaixing was doing the same thing with a tooth for a tooth, and an eye for an eye.

As long as he can finish killing Yan Wushu in the formation, he will naturally resolve this crisis.

For thousands of years, many people have doubted the truth of this thing. They don't believe that anyone would have the courage to ride into battle alone, not to kill themselves!

For these people, I just want to give him two fresh and hot examples that happened in the Song Dynasty,

First, in the first year of Renzong Kangding, in the battle of Yanzhou between the Northern Song Dynasty and the Western Xia, the general Guo Zun, in order to cover the retreat of the whole army, also broke off alone, and fought until the spear was broken, the whip was broken, and the arrow pierced through the body and died.

Second, in the third year of Gaozong Shaoxing, Dong Xian, who was under the command of the White Army, single-handedly stopped Li Cheng's 100,000 army for a whole day before the nameless bridge, making time for Yue Fei's encirclement.

Including heroes such as the Yang generals, the warriors of the Song Dynasty never lacked courage!

Yang Zaixing, with his own enthusiasm, single-handedly rushed into the golden soldier array; But in the vast sea of people, where do you go to find Yan Wushu?

As a result, the military flags of the Jin soldiers and the costumes of those high-ranking officers became the target of Yang Zaixing's charge.

The first thing to look for is, of course, the handsome banner of the golden soldiers.

But after several hard work, before rushing to the handsome banner of the golden soldiers, he couldn't find the complete Yan Wushu, and in a fit of anger, Yang Zaixing could only swing his sword to cut down the handsome banner.

As soon as the handsome flag fell. The pace of movement of the golden soldiers slowed down significantly.

Yang Zaixing was like a madman, and the wolf rushed among the golden soldiers. Rampant. Wherever there is a military flag, rush there, and where there are people wearing the costumes of high-ranking officials of the golden soldiers, they rush there, and howl loudly while rushing to kill: Where is Wanyan Wushu, dare to fight me to the death!!

Regarding Yang Zaixing's challenge request, Wanyan Wushu did not come out to accept it.

Obviously, Wanyan Wushu did not dare to face Yang Zaixing, a madman, His Excellency Marshal Du, the highest-ranking Marshal of the Dajin Kingdom, disappeared again on the battlefield.

No one knows what he did or where he was hiding.

When Yang Zaixing cut off most of the banners of the Jin soldiers. When he killed a number of high-ranking officers and searched for Yan Wushu everywhere in the enemy formation, all the Jin soldiers who could still move around scattered and fled.

Yang Zaixing's whole body was drenched in blood, and there were dozens of wounds in his body, but miraculously he did not hurt the vital parts, which can be regarded as God's eyes.

In this way, the battle of Yuncheng, which was carefully prepared by Wanyan Wushu, came to an end.

The significance of such a battle is clearly written in the reward edict written by Emperor Gaozong to Yue Fei:

E: Since I joined the Kou, this fifteen years, my division is in battle. What a hundred battles. It has never been heard of as a lonely army, when it is a great evil. The anti-dog and sheep gathered together, in the plains and wilderness, and those who use their lives today. Gai Qing is loyal to the gods, Wei Huifu is a soldier, both on the journey, Xianhuai to overcome the enemy's heart, trapped in battle and destroyed, do not look back, fight repeatedly, ugly and defeated. Nian Zi Feng Di friends, there is a heavy pain of injury, so far, the time to be innocent. However, the captivity has been exhausted, and the Fang Zhen of our army is still serving the will of fame, and it is extremely heard of the period of annihilation. I want to be loyal and diligent, I am deeply happy, and I will reduce the money of 200,000 yuan to reward the soldiers. Therefore, I would like to know about it.

This edict proves that this battle of Yuncheng was the first time in the fifteen years since the founding of the Southern Song Dynasty that a lone army won a decisive battle in the wilderness and defeated the Jin soldiers.

This is a historical record

After Yan Wushu lost another battle, he was scolded by Yang Zaixing everywhere in a very shameless manner.

But after all, he is a generation of famous generals, and in addition to being depressed, he can still stay sober about this mission and never forget it - no matter what, Yue Fei must die.

After thinking about it for a while, Wanyan Wushu decided to use all his strength to attack Yuncheng

It was very difficult to repel the sudden attack of the Jin soldiers, and most of the soldiers of the Yue family army were injured to varying degrees, except for Yue Yun.

This magical "winning officer" carried a pair of 82-pound iron cone guns every time, and the prancing horse charged at the forefront, but he didn't even hang a single wounded.

Say something other than praising the Lord.

You must know that according to the legend, the water mill Zen staff of the flower monk Lu Zhishen is only sixty-two catties, and the weight of eighty-two catties is only equipped with the Qinglong Yanyue knife used by the sage Guan

The headquarters was discovered by Jin Bing, and Yue Fei had only two options: one was to move the headquarters, and the other was to move troops back from other places to protect the headquarters.

The relocation of the headquarters is a very troublesome matter, because there are many trivial matters, there are many civil officials and their families, and after the relocation of the headquarters, how to contact the imperial court is also a troublesome matter.

Therefore, Yue Fei decided to send Yue Yun to Yingchang Mansion to move troops and transfer Zhang Xian's main force to Yuncheng, and the vacancy in Yingchang Mansion was filled by Wang Guizhong's troops from Luoyang and Zhengzhou.

In addition, Yue Fei also wrote a letter to Liu Qi of Shunchang Mansion asking for help, asking him to send troops north to participate in the battle.

Yue Fei and Liu Qi sympathized with each other, and in the Battle of Shunchang, Yue's army also helped the Bazi Army a lot, and now it is reasonable to ask Liu Qi for help.

By this time, Yue Fei had already known about Zhang Jun's withdrawal of troops. Today's arrangement can be regarded as a kind of strategic contraction defense.

The strange thing is that less than two days after Yue Yun left, Yuncheng, the headquarters of the Yue family's army, ushered in a new round of attacks by the Jin soldiers.

It's just that the number of these golden soldiers is not much, only a thousand; Moreover, their actions are very strange, and they do not fight with the Yue family's army, once the Yue's army is dispatched, these golden soldiers will immediately retreat.

The provocation of these Jin soldiers naturally caused a strong backlash from the Yue family's army.

A cavalry detachment of the Yuejia Army with a strength of 500 people suddenly went out of the city and clung to this golden soldier.

Like the previous times, these Jin soldiers saw the Yue family's army leaving the city, turned around and ran.

But they didn't expect that this time the Yue family army chased after them all the way to Wulidian in the north of Yuncheng City. Over there. Yue's army captured the chief general of the Jin soldiers.

It was a very imposing Jurchen. Outside the armor was a purple robe. In a thicket of iron armor, it looks so dazzling and stands out from the crowd.

It's such a big target, I can't catch you if I want to.

The soldiers of the Yue family army came with hatred, and rushed up, surrounded the handsome man in purple robes and beat him wildly, and after he dispersed, this person was shattered into a ball of meat sauce.

The soldiers of the Yuejia army continued to pursue, and after all the thousand golden soldiers were eliminated, they turned back, only to find a red lacquer sign on him, which read "A Li Duo Jin Jin".

Really a big shot. It is equivalent to the title of captain in the Song army.

But the question is, since his position is so high, why did he dare to come to death with only a thousand people, could it be that he felt that he was more than fifteen times stronger than His Royal Highness the Fourth Prince.

You must know that Wanyan Wushu brought 15,000 people over a few days ago, but he was still defeated.

The answer to the question was revealed three days later, a person with an official rank like Wanyan Wushu came to send him to death, just to firmly tie Yue Fei to Yuncheng, and it was better to consume it, all just to delay. Prevent Yue Fei from removing the headquarters.

And during this time, he had reassembled an army of 100,000 after completing his Yan Wushu. even ignored the defense of Kaifeng Mansion and went all out to attack Yuncheng

On the 13th day of the seventh month of the 10th year of Shaoxing, this huge army quietly bypassed the main force of the Yuejia army on the Yingchang side and approached in the direction of Yuncheng.

It was a dark day and torrential rain, and in the afternoon, they suddenly encountered more than 300 patrolling Yuejia troops, near Xiaoshang Bridge in Linying County

Leading these more than 300 patrol troops is the lone hero - Yang Zaixing.

The weather was hazy and pouring rain, Yang Zaixing looked at the boundless Jin Jun who appeared in the distance, and already knew his final fate.

There were only 300 cavalry around him, and the Jin army in front of him had more than 100,000 ...... With such a huge disparity, is it a battle or a retreat?

If you retreat, the 100,000 Jin soldiers in front of you will directly attack Yuncheng, and the headquarters of the Yue family army will be in danger, and it may even be wiped out by the Jin soldiers.

If you don't retreat and fight Jin Bing to the end, although your death will definitely not be avoided, you can at least delay it for a while.

Yang Zaixing knew that Zhang Xianqian's army and Liu Qi's eight-character army were on the way to rescue Yuncheng, and the arrival time might be tonight or tomorrow, in short, it was almost there.

Thinking of this, Yang Zaixing couldn't help but smile bitterly

Today, it was Yang Zaixing's turn to be on duty, but Yue Fei resolutely refused to change Yang Zaixing's shift, because Yang Zaixing's injuries had not healed, and it was raining heavily outside the camp.

Yang Zaixing disagreed with Yue Fei's kindness, and he said to Yue Fei:

"My wounds are no longer serious, and besides, when marching and fighting, you must not disobey military orders. The patrol is only for inspection, and there will be no danger, and if the marshal is not at ease, give me three hundred cavalry. ”

The reason why the Yuejia army's combat effectiveness is strong, strict military discipline is the most important reason, and Yang Zaixing is unwilling to break the rules of the army for himself.

Both of them disagreed with each other's opinions, Yue Fei smashed the chair angrily, and Yang Zaixing finally pulled out his sword and pressed it on his neck, saying, "If you don't agree, I'll wipe it if you don't agree." ”

Yue Fei had no choice but to agree. After instructing "be careful", Yang Zaixing was sent out of the camp without any indication

Yang Zaixing gritted his teeth, turned around, and said to the three hundred subordinates: "I am sure that I will not survive today, you should quickly return to the camp and report the situation here to the marshal, saying that the main army of the Jin soldiers is coming." ”

Three hundred soldiers of the Yue family army dismounted together, knelt on one knee, and said:

"We just want to live and die with the general, the Yue family army will not abandon their brothers, if they want to die, let's die together. General, each of us will kill dozens of him, kill him enough to be brothers in the next life. ”

Yang Zaixing's nose was sour, he thought about it, jumped off the horse, and shouted: "Good brother, stand up and obey orders." ”

Three hundred soldiers suddenly stood up and responded loudly: "Yes! ”

Yang Zaixing said: "I have become married, and there are men who take a step back. ”

Huo Huo snorted twice, and more than half of the soldiers took a step back.

Yang Zaixing continued: "There are still biological brothers in the family who take a step back. ”

Huo Huo screamed twice, and most of the soldiers in the front row retreated, leaving only five young people.

Yang Zaixing laughed and said to the five young men: "The five people in the front row listened to the order and immediately rushed back to the camp to report the military situation to Marshal Yue. ”

The five young men fell to their knees together and cried, "If we don't leave, we will live and die with our brothers." ”

Yang Zaixing stepped forward, gave each of them a kick, and shouted: "Little rabbit cubs, stop being verbose, this is not for you, but for your parents." ”。 (To be continued......)
