Chapter 520: Rescue the Ruzhou Army
"Hold it off for me! Adjutant General Wu's army is about to arrive! The thief army is dying! Hurry up! Yu Zilian shouted.
In the early morning of this day, the camp of the Ruzhou Army was well defended, and the peasant army also suspended its attack, waiting for the Runing Army to run out, and the two sides were in a state of confrontation. However, within half a day, the peasant army attacked like crazy, making the camp of the Ruzhou army a rumor.
Under the power of captured artillery, the camp of the Ruzhou army was almost broken several times. But under the instigation of Yu Zilian, the remaining Ruzhou army still desperately plugged the leakage, which was able to keep the integrity of the camp. However, they are now looking forward to the appearance of the Runing army, and if they don't come again, these soldiers don't know if they can hold back this breath and stop the crazy peasant army.
But although it was a guess, Yu Zilian did not guess wrong. The peasant army is abnormal, and it is precisely the Runing army that has approached this peasant army.
After setting out from Ruzhou City, it didn't take long for this group of people to be discovered by the spies of the peasant army. But Ma Shouying, who commanded him, did not panic at all, because he had already ambushed the ambush soldiers on the way to come, so he was ready to come to a siege point to help.
But then Ma Shouying noticed something was wrong. First of all, a few spies sent out did not come back, and Ma Shouying also understood that those spies were strangled by the scouts sent by the Runing Army. Therefore, Ma Shouying immediately had an intuitive understanding of the combat effectiveness of this support army.
Then, the Ming army that came to help moved quite strangely. Not only did they march during the day, but they also made a rapid march in the night, passed through several ambushes of the peasant army, and suddenly appeared in front of the peasant army's Zuihou interception line.
Ma Shouying immediately knew that he couldn't do anything, and he absolutely didn't believe that the peasant army intercepted by Zuihou would stop this Ming army. Therefore, Ma Shouying immediately decided to take his elite away from the battlefield.
So Ma Shouying first gathered his own troops, and then sent those united peasant armies to attack Yu Zilian's Ruzhou army with all their might. It is to entangle the Ruzhou army with those miscellaneous cards. Leave them behind to block them. It's completely a kind of dead friend who doesn't die and doesn't die in the poor way.
And those unwitting miscellaneous peasant army, in order to snatch the remaining military funds of the Ruzhou army, with the cooperation of those captured artillery, resolutely threw themselves into the attack on the Ruzhou military camp, and Yu Zilian was in a hurry.
"How? Are you all assembled? Ma Shouying asked.
"The horse team has been assembled, but there are still thirty percent of the foot team that haven't come!" A close general replied.
"Don't wait. Let's go first! The team of officers and dogs moved too fast. Ma Shouying ordered.
But before Ma Shouying's words fell, he only heard the roar of firearms coming from the interception place in the distance. Then, first by two, then in groups, the defeated peasant army broke up towards Ma Shouying's main formation.
Ma Shouying's face changed suddenly. Originally, he thought that he could stop it for a day or two. But in less than half a day, the intercepted peasant army had already been defeated.
And those routs still ran to their own home, aren't they the pioneers? In case the main formation of Ma Shouying is scattered by the rout, then he will be broken.
So Ma Shouying immediately ordered: "Bow and arrow to disperse those routs and let them flee to both sides." Let's go! ”
"The thieves are back! The thieves are retreating! "The Ruzhou Army, already in despair, suddenly found that their pressure plummeted. In their confusion, they found that the peasant army was still going crazy just now. But it has receded like a tidal wave. And they all cheered loudly.
And the peasant army that was fighting also found that their comrades were retreating, so they immediately lost their fighting spirit and fled backwards as if they had abandoned their armor. It was only because the Ruzhou army was still in shock that it did not take advantage of the peasant army's embarrassment to cover up the killing.
The leaders of the motley peasant armies who were cannon fodder were not fools. Originally, when they saw Ma Shouying gathering troops, they thought that Ma Shouying's elite was about to enter the battle. But now as soon as Ma Shou Ying Shuai Qi retreated, he knew that something was wrong. But before the leaders could understand why. I saw that the friendly troops who went to intercept broke up, isn't this situation clear? Run away. It depends on who has the longest legs.
So the soldiers of Ruzhou, who were still fighting to the death just now, were like having a nightmare, holding weapons. I watched the peasant army fleeing in all directions on the battlefield, and after a while, I saw thousands of well-equipped cavalry rushing into the battlefield, slashing and killing the fleeing peasant army.
The soldiers of the Ruzhou army finally reacted, and they all cried with joy, hugged each other, and shouted, "We are saved!" Reinforcements are coming! ……”
I don't know who started it, but they cheered together: "Your Excellency! Mighty! What a clever plan! Those soldiers' worship of Yu Zilian suddenly reached the extreme.
At this time, Yu Zilian also collapsed. When the celebrities around him didn't know where they came from, and they all ignored their demeanor and gathered around Yu Zilian to congratulate, Yu Zilian also tried his best to restrain the ecstasy in his heart, and said lightly: "This is all in the hands of this official control!" ”
But before those celebrities slapped their farts again, Yu Zilian couldn't help but look up to the sky and laugh, and then fainted with a "grunt". These days of crisis, the mental haggard brought to Yu Zilian finally attacked.
"What about Yu Zhizhou?" Wu Shigong asked domineeringly.
"Our Yu Zhizhou is resting in the tent!" Wang Qianhu, who was beside Wu Shigong, nodded and replied.
This time, the Runing Army fully gave full play to their characteristics of being good at marching and fighting at night, and took advantage of the changeable rhythm to avoid the ambush of the peasant army. Because on such a dark night, the peasant army could not set up an ambush!
After that, the Runing army broke through an interception line in Zuihou. There is nothing to say, the artillery bombards, the artillery fires the guns, the fire guns shoot the cavalry, and the whole army follows the cavalry to attack.
The peasant army that was originally intercepted was a little caught off guard, and was hit by such a powerful firepower of the Runing army, that is, it responded to the four words of defeat.
After that, it's time to take advantage of the situation. The peasant army besieging the Ruzhou Army was basically left behind by the cavalry of the Runing Army, and even the troops guarding the horses were left with their tails by the Runing Army.
Ma Shouying had no intention of fighting at all, and he fled westward with the defeated soldiers. And the fatigue of the rapid march could not make the Runing army pursue too deeply, so Wu Shigong and the others accepted it when they saw it. However, the results of this operation are quite impressive.
Seeing that it was already dark, Wu Shigong gathered his troops, collected the prisoners and captures, and joined forces with the Ruzhou army. (To be continued......)
