Then he turned his head to look out of the city.

A piece of dust, I couldn't see the scene in the middle at all, I only saw the enemy cavalry on both sides who had just run happily, and now there were definitely no more than twenty percent of them still on horseback.

In fact, there are also 1,000 horsemen in Ercheng, but it's a pity that they are not Ben Lei Du under Bailikang. Sun Shixu sighed in his heart.

At least half of the twenty percent of the cavalry were in control of the frantic horses, and the rest were all in a daze.

The dust gradually fell, and the scene began to clear.

Sun Shixu took out the cotton in his ears and saw countless large pits outside the city, extending from the direction of the city gate to twenty zhang away.

Twenty feet away, except for the soldiers who were blown down or shocked, all the soldiers who could move fled backwards.

Sun Shixu cursed again in his heart, and hurriedly threw another signal flag into the city.

As a result, the Fusang Army and the Ezo Army, which had withdrawn to the north of the city, began to charge to the south of the city under the command of the officer.

And at this point, it's just a charge.

The enemy soldiers living outside the southern gate had already discarded everything they could, and they had fled with their heads in their hands.

The 35,000 attacking enemy troops did not even fight, and they were wiped out.

To the great joy of the soldiers of the Fuso Army and the Ezo Army, who rushed forward, they captured many ordnance and horses.

Sun Shixu smiled, because there is no general in this world who does not like horses.

But soon, Sun Shixu couldn't laugh anymore, because he found that many of these horses were more than three and a half feet tall.

Basically, they are a little more than three feet, and horses of this height are used to pull carts in Dachu.

Using these horses as war horses, such cavalry could not compete with the pikemen under their command.

At this time, Sun Shixu gave an order that was inexplicable to him later. He ordered the Ezo Army and the Fuso Army to continue the attack, following the deserters in pursuit. And ordered that all captured soldiers could get thirty percent.

This decision was cited as evidence by Baili Wuji many years later. proves that Sun Shixu has already shown the talent of a famous player at a very young age. Water is impermanent, and soldiers are impermanent. It is impossible to have a fixed pattern for leading troops to fight any time, and there will be all kinds of accidents, and those who can keenly capture advantageous fighters at this time have the talent of famous generals, and as for experience, it can be cultivated slowly.

Perhaps it was the incomparable power of this order about the spoils of war that even the soldiers of the expeditionary force were amazed by the speed of pursuit shown by the soldiers of the Fuso Army and the soldiers of the Ezo Army.

The combined forces that came this time came from the six countries of Hitachi, Ueno, Shimono, Musashi, Echigo, and Kai. So the destination of the deserters is also these six countries.

The ranks of the pursuing Fuso Army, the Ezo Army, and the Expeditionary Force were already in disarray, and sometimes even a dozen or so men pursued the hundreds of deserters in front, and the battle line began to lengthen.

In fact, after the Fusang Army and the Ezo Army disappeared from sight, Sun Shixu was already sensitive to the problem with his order, although the deserters were scattered, but the direction of their departure was their departure city, and there must be guards in the city, once the pursuing soldiers were blocked, I am afraid that the passion would immediately become a rout. These soldiers were not expeditionary soldiers. Sun Renxu did not compare them with the soldiers of the expeditionary force.

Thinking of this, Sun Renxu immediately ordered Xu Shouren to split into two routes with his own soldiers and lead the expeditionary force to support, if there was anything wrong. Contain the Fuso Army and the Ezo Army and return to Wakamatsu Castle to defend it.

After Xu Shouren received the order, he led an expeditionary force of 3,000 to quickly march to Yuego.

Sun Shixu led the expeditionary force to attack in the direction of Lu Xiaye and Shangye.

All the way south, you will pass through the four cities of Otawara, Toriyama, Utsunomiya, and Mibu. All the people went to the empty city, except for a mess and a few corpses in official uniforms. There are also soldiers who have already grabbed money and belongings, and they are so heavy that they can't hold them or carry them.

After asking these soldiers.

Sun Shixu discovered. He underestimated the combat effectiveness of the soldiers of Fuso and Ezo, and to be precise, underestimated the destructive power of his own order that "all captured soldiers can get thirty percent". This order greatly encouraged the soldiers of the Fuso Army, especially the soldiers of the Ezo Army.

In the order system that sent troops to participate in the siege of Sun Shixu Ruosong City, the defenders of the city were only hundreds, and at most only one or two thousand people. The consequence of tens of thousands of fleeing soldiers, coupled with the pursuit of 20,000 troops, was that the city where the deserters had passed, and the defenders of the city were all carried south by coercion. This situation can be accurately described in one word - the wind and clouds.

Sun Shixu had no choice but to continue to chase south.

The next day, the army passed through the five castles of Ueno, and the situation remained the same, except that more and more soldiers remained in the cities.

In desperation, Sun Shixu ordered the 300 expeditionary force to be left behind, and began to contain the stranded soldiers in the upper and lower fields, and registered and concentrated the materials they grabbed in their hands first, and then distributed them after the war.

This made the stranded soldiers very excited, because they could continue to go forward and grab more things, and they cooperated very well to hand over their money and belongings to the expeditionary force, and continued south with the expeditionary force.

At this time, Xu Shouren had also successfully passed through the four cities of Echigo Murakami, Shinjida, Nagaoka, and Takada, and came to Ueno to join Sun Shixu's department.

At this time, Sun Shixu was already keenly aware of the fighter plane, and ordered Xu Shouren to join forces and quickly march into the three cities of Musashi Shinobi, Iwatsuki, and Kawagoe. There were more and more soldiers stranded in the city, and Sun Shixu had no choice but to order Xu Shouren to stay in Musashi and contain and reorganize. He immediately led an expeditionary force of 6,000 to attack Jiafei.

Successively passed through Tanimura, Ishiwa and two castles, and came to the outside of Kofu Castle.

At this time, Sun Shixu found that all the pursuing soldiers stopped their footsteps, all gathered here, and lined up to face each other.

Because, tens of thousands of cavalry appeared in front.

The deserters finally stopped their pace here and began to form a group amid the shouts of the generals.

Sun Shixu asked the generals of the expeditionary force in the queue and learned about it.

The pursuing Fuso and Ezo troops encountered the cavalry of Kofu here and began to line up, and under the command of the general of the expeditionary force, they had already engaged the cavalry of Kofu twice, each with damage.

Today, there are about 12,000 soldiers of the Fuso Army and the Ezo Army gathered here.

What made Sun Shixu strange was that the soldiers of the Fusang Army and the Ezo Army, who did not have much advantage, could not collapse against 10,000 cavalry.

Although they are equipped with pikemen, morale has always been the key to victory or defeat.

Sun Shixu never thought that the Fusang Army had this kind of morale.

And the two-month campaign has also proved this. In one word, it's "invincible." ”

But now the Fuso Army and Ezo Army under their command have withstood the charge of the Kofu cavalry.

This really made Sun Shixu puzzled, and Sun Shixu looked at it at a glance, these soldiers who were fighting in array were all in good spirits, and they didn't have the slightest intention of being afraid. Even if the spears and armor were complete, even if there was an order from the captured soldiers, this could not be a reason to resist the charge of the cavalry. (To be continued......)
