Li Yang looked at the sun above his head, smiled slightly at the corner of his mouth, and did not answer positively, but ordered: "Pass my order and let all the main forces in the city gather at the east gate." ”

"Yes, sir." The creep commanded.

#####

Two moments later, the sunlight was already approaching due south, Hua An saw that the time was ripe, glanced behind him, and said softly: "Order, the three soldiers and horses will attack immediately." ”

Hearing the order, the small soldiers behind him waved the Chinese army forward slightly, and the two groups of men and horses on the left and right immediately roared and killed the Zhao army on the opposite side.

Seeing that the left and right armies had been killed, Hua An raised the glaive sword and shouted: "Soldiers, kill ......"

The 30,000 horses of the Northern Expeditionary Army slaughtered the Zhao army on the opposite side like a tide, and the war drums in the rear of the army were constantly beating and cheering.

"The whole army meets the enemy and kills ......" Kui An shouted, commanded the main force under his command, and killed the Northern Expeditionary Army.

The men and horses on both sides were elite, and as soon as they came into contact, they fought to the death, swords collided, war horses neighed, soldiers were constantly killed on the battlefield, and blood stained the earth red.

The Northern Expeditionary Army went into battle for the first time, and occupied the advantage, and in less than half an hour of fighting, Zhao Guo's soldiers gradually lost their opponents, and the formation gradually loosened, showing signs of collapse.

Seeing the soldiers under his command becoming more and more courageous, Hua Anxin was greatly satisfied, more than a year of training was not in vain, and now, the Northern Expedition New Army can already confront the elite Zhao State army head-on.

An enemy general in front was very brave, and the big axe in his hand kept slashing and killing the soldiers of the Northern Expeditionary Army who rushed forward, and in a short moment, dozens of soldiers of the Northern Expeditionary Army had already died in their hands.

Seeing this, Hua An was furious, clamped the horse's belly, raised the glaive sword, and went straight to kill this enemy general with strong martial arts.

When the enemy general saw Hua'an, his eyes were round, and he raised his big axe and slashed at Hua'an.

Hua'an shook his spirit and fought with the enemy's bloody battle, fighting for more than ten rounds, the enemy general was timid, the move gradually scattered, the flaw has appeared, Hua'an saw the opportunity, and cut the enemy general off the horse.

"The Zhao army is defeated, soldiers, kill!" Hua'an shouted loudly, boosting morale.

With the encouragement of the main general, the morale of the Northern Expeditionary Army was stronger, and the soldiers were more energetic, but the army of Zhao gradually could not support it, and deserters began to appear on the battlefield.

Standing on the tower of the east gate of Shicheng, Jingling Taishou Li Yang, seeing that the Northern Expeditionary Army was gradually in an advantageous position, he couldn't help but show a look of appreciation, and several subordinates beside him shouted loudly.

"Great, the army of Zhao is about to collapse, my lord, are we going out of the city to help in the war." A subordinate pleaded.

"Yes! My lord, the 3,000 Zhao troops besieging the city can't stop our army at all, so let's attack! Another subordinate followed.

"Hahaha! The Northern Expeditionary Army really lived up to its name. Li Yang laughed and praised it, and then ordered: "General Qin, you immediately lead four battalions of soldiers and horses to kill out of the city, break through the besieging enemy army, and flank Kui'an's main force with the Northern Expeditionary Army." ”

"The last general commands." General Qin happily accepted the military order.

"Open the gates and beat the drums to help the battle." Li Yang let out a loud shout, personally snatched the drum pestle from the hands of a soldier, and personally beat the drum to boost the morale of the army.

The city gate slowly opened, 4,000 soldiers under the leadership of General Qin, suddenly killed from the city gate, the Zhao army responsible for surrounding the east gate was only 1,000 people, and, affected by the defeat of the main force in the rear, the morale was extremely low, and it was impossible to stop the impact of the 4,000 army in the city.

"Soldiers, capture Kui'an alive and kill ......" General Qin shouted loudly and led 4,000 men and horses to rush behind the main army of Kui'an.

The main army of Kui'an was already on the verge of collapse, and it was only a matter of time before the defeat was lost.

"General, our army has been defeated, let's withdraw quickly!" A subordinate general urged Kui'an.

Kui An looked around, and reluctantly ordered: "Soldiers, retreat, retreat in the direction of Chaisang." After speaking, he led a group of personal soldiers to kill in the direction of Chaisang.

Tens of thousands of Zhao soldiers threw away their armor and followed behind Kui'an, fleeing in the direction of Chaisang.

Seeing that the army of Zhao was scattered, Hua An breathed a sigh of relief, and then shouted: "The Zhao army is defeated, and the soldiers chase and kill the fleeing enemy and kill ......."

"Kill ......" 30,000 soldiers of the Northern Expeditionary Army, shouting to kill the scattered Zhao army. The 4,000 men and horses who were killed from the city naturally followed suit.

After a period of pursuit, seeing that the enemy army had run away, Hua An ordered to stop the pursuit and led the army to Shicheng.

"Haha! This is General Hua! The old Li Yang is polite. Li Yang went out of the city to greet him and bowed his hand to Hua'an.

"You are the famous Jingling Taishou Lord Li, Hua'an pays a visit to Lord Li." Hua An hurriedly dismounted and saluted Li Yang.

"Haha! General Hua is polite, let's enter the city quickly! Li Yang said politely.

After entering the city, Hua An and Li Yang inevitably exchanged pleasantries, complimented each other a few words, and then, when talking about how to retreat from the enemy, both of them had extraordinary opinions, of course, there were still differences on some issues.

"Big brother, the battlefield has been cleared." Just as Hua An and Li Yang were talking about how to retreat from the enemy, Wang San walked in.

"Oh, what about our casualties." Seeing Wang San's relaxed face, Hua An asked directly.

Wang San raised his head slightly and replied: "Our casualties are only 100 people, and there are 500 casualties on the left and right flanks. ”

"Oh, what about the enemy casualties." Li Yang hurriedly asked.

Wang San smiled slightly, and said loudly: "The enemy army has abandoned 5,000 corpses, and there are countless casualties, and our army has won a great victory!" ”

"Hahaha! Congratulations! General Hua has made a great contribution to the imperial court! Li Yang hurriedly got up and congratulated Hua'an.

Hua An got up and saluted back: "Where, where, Lord Li is polite, the reason why this battle can achieve such results is thanks to Lord Li's reinforcements attacking from behind the enemy, and the adults are indispensable!" ”

"Haha! Don't fight for the credit, report it to the court truthfully, let the saint decide, you and I still have to discuss, let's plan for the next step! Li Yang stretched out his hand and waved his hand and motioned for Hua An to sit down.

Hua An sat down gently, looked at Li Yang sideways, and said: "Right now, Uncle Guo is seriously ill, the Jingzhou army is leaderless, Lord Li is the mainstay of the Jingzhou army, Hua An wants to hear your lord's plan." ”

Li Yang smiled slightly, and said: "There are a lot of cavalry in the army of Zhao State, and the water network in the south of the Yangtze River is not suitable for cavalry to run around, right now, Shi Hu transferred away the most elite Shi Min Army, and General Hua led 30,000 horses to reinforce Jingzhou, under the advantages of the other, the army of Zhao State is no longer the opponent of our army in the north of Jingzhou, and the defeat of the enemy army today is just a beginning, as long as our army is pressing step by step, it is expected that the enemy army will not be able to resist." ”
