The officers and troops in the north did not expect that Xu Huaiqing would actually launch an attack in the dark of night, obviously a little unprepared. www.biquge.info In their opinion, the two most powerful things Wang Xianjun relied on in the dark night, firearms and bows and arrows, so they wanted to try their luck in the dark sky.

But they didn't know that after a day of fierce fighting, Xu Huaiqing and the others had run out of ammunition and arrows...... Although some arrows were recovered, it was a drop in the bucket, and it was not worth it at all!

What's more, Xu Huaiqing wants to drag Yang Rong tonight, how can he do it if he doesn't give the official army a head-on blow? !

"Kill!" Five thousand cavalry slaughtered out of the darkness, like hungry wolves, and frantically rushed into the enemy army with torches in hand!

The torches of the officers and soldiers could only illuminate a few feet near and far, and only then did they see that the enemy was killed, and hurriedly raised their swords to resist, but it was the enemy with a thousand swords. The officers and soldiers who walked in the forefront screamed and were cut in half by their blades! In the dark night, there was no blood or stumps flying, only the screams that spread all over the mountains, the crisp sound of blades clashing, and the thud of flesh and blood being split...... It's terrifying just as much!

Before the officers and soldiers in the back row could react, the comrades in front of them had already been cut off from their horses! Only then did they see that the enemy had rushed in front of them, and before they even had time to raise their blades, they were all knocked away by the galloping war horses!

As soon as the battle began, the formation of the officers and troops was in chaos, Xu Huaiqing took advantage of the momentum of the charge, led the army into the formation of the officers and soldiers, and countless officers and soldiers died under their swords, and suddenly the pressure in front of them was empty, and it turned out that the formation had broken out!

Xu Huaiqing laughed, took off the longbow from his back, picked up a special long arrow in the quiver, and shot it in the northwest direction!

With a sharp whistling sound, Ming Di pierced the blood-colored night sky, guiding the soldiers to gallop towards the northwest!

A few miles outside the city of Tongzhou is where Yang Rong's Chinese army flag is located. Xu Huaiqing's expectation was not bad, Yang Rong didn't dare to leave Tongzhou too far at all, if it wasn't for the fact that he had to close the city gate after dark and command the outskirts of the city to suppress the inconvenience, he wouldn't even leave Tongzhou City.

Even at this time, Yang Rong still couldn't dispel the idea of returning to the city, he was too contradictory, on the one hand, Tongzhou must not be lost, and on the other hand, Xu Huaiqing must be eliminated as soon as possible. Open up the road to transport grain, and transport the grain and grass materials from Tongzhou back to the capital as soon as possible!

Yang Rong couldn't think of the best of both worlds, so he could only leave the city to command at the same time, and always maintain vigilance against Tongzhou City, until he learned that Xu Huaiqing was cruising around the Yongtong Bridge, Yang Rong made up his mind. It couldn't be better to be able to command a battle without being too far from the city.

Who knew that not long after the order to close the siege, the news came that Xu Huaiqing had defeated the army in the north and broke out of the formation!

Yang Rongdeng was furious and asked Qianhu who came to report the news: "Don't you understand the old man's order?" Be in step with each other so as not to give the enemy a chance to take advantage of it! ”

"This ......" Qianhu Xin said that I was just an errand messenger, what's the use of you yelling at me?

"A bunch of rubbish!" Yang Rong stomped his feet angrily, Wang Xianjun had already broken out of the formation, what was the use of the encirclement he had painstakingly formed?!

In fact, Bachelor Yang is also a scholar, after all, he is a civil official, and he doesn't know that planning in advance is one thing, and actually leading troops to fight is another. If you can ensure that you don't walk the board in a ridiculous way, it's already the limit! Therefore, for the general, it is necessary not to plan too much, and to leave enough room for error, like him, it is impossible to be accurate to the point that every army must be in step with each other and appear in the corresponding position without any difference.

Yang Rong thought that Xu Huaiqing had broken through and was frustrating there, when he suddenly heard the scout's report: "The enemy army has turned back and launched an attack on the Northern Route Army again, and the Northern Route Army has been defeated!" ”

Yang Rong heard the news, but he was not surprised, and patted his thigh and said, "Okay!" There is a way in heaven that he doesn't go, and there is no way to go to hell! In Mr. Yang's view, Wang Xianjun did not take the opportunity to escape, which was too underestimating the performance of the official army! In that case, there is no need to go!

Yang Rong immediately ordered the troops from all walks of life to change their marching routes, and quickly formed an encirclement and interception posture against Wang Xian's army in the north!

In the dark night, I couldn't see the battle situation in the distance clearly, and I could only listen to the constant reports of the scouts:

"Report! The enemy defeated the Northern Route Army and penetrated directly into the flank of the Northwest Army! ”

"Report! The formation of the Northwest Route Army was broken horizontally, and Deputy Governor Chen was killed! ”

"Report! The Western Route Army was not attacked, and the enemy turned back to the north and attacked the Northeast Route Army, which had just arrived! ”

"Report! The Northeast Route Army fought fiercely with the enemy, suffered heavy losses, both lieutenants were killed, and the enemy took the road! ”

"Report! The enemy ambushed the Southern Route Army due north and drove them off the Yongtong River, where the ice shattered and countless people drowned! ”

"Report! The Eastern Route Army was attacked ......"

"Report! The Western Route Army was attacked ......"

"Report! Southwest Army ......"

Within two hours, nearly 80,000 officers and troops divided into eight roads were attacked by Xu Huaiqing more than a dozen times, and there was not a single victory! There were more than ten generals and generals who were killed alone, and there were countless ordinary soldiers, and they could not be counted in the dark!

"Is Xu Huaiqing a heavenly soldier and a heavenly general?!" Yang Rong was completely crazy, he took off his official hat and threw it on the ground, untied the belt that was in the way, and waved it in the air in his hand, showing his teeth and claws, how could he still have half of the old demeanor of the country?

"The dark night gave Xu Huaiqing the best cover, and we divided our troops into multiple ways so that he could break through each one." The generals on the side hurriedly explained: "But don't worry, after all, he only has 5,000 soldiers and horses, and he should have lost 7788 at this time...... but he felt very relieved in his heart, and secretly said You finally understand why Xu Huaiqing can press the grain army on the road with only 5,000 soldiers and horses. Why was Li Xian forced back to the city! It's not that we don't work hard, it's that the enemy army is too ferocious!

However, Yang Rong's frustration did not come from Xu Huaiqing's inhuman combat effectiveness, but because he had made a fatal mistake! Before, Yang Rong thought that Xu Huaiqing would definitely escape under the siege of the army, so he set up such a net formation. Now he finally understands that Xu Huaiqing has no intention of running away at all, and people don't take his net in their eyes at all! I want to use 5,000 soldiers and horses to fight him!

At this moment, Bachelor Yang can no longer care about Tongzhou and the overall situation, and there is only one thought left in his heart, that is, he must kill Xu Huaiqing and his subordinates to relieve the hatred in his heart!

If you lose such a war with a huge disparity in strength, not only will you become the laughing stock of the world, but you will also make civilian officials forever isolated from military power! This is absolutely unacceptable to Yang Rong!

Even though the sage's teachings were in his heart, Yang Rong was still burned by the boundless karmic fire and lost his mind, he finally got on the horse in person and led the 10,000 cavalry to supervise the battle, he didn't believe that the nearly 90,000 army couldn't kill Xu Huaiqing's 5,000 men and horses!

Under Yang Rong's drive, the official army finally formed his ideal lotus formation, each position was attacked, there would be reinforcements from all directions immediately, and there was no need to worry about being isolated and being ravaged by Xu Huaiqing!

It's just that the price of forming this formation is too high......

But in any case, more soldiers is the last word, and the officers and troops began to shrink their formations, and as their formations became closer and closer, there were fewer and fewer opportunities for Xu Huaiqing......

I don't know how many times he beat the enemy into a sieve, Xu Huaiqing doesn't know how many times he shot out the Ming Di, only to see that there are fewer and fewer soldiers gathered around him, and looking at it, even the most optimistic estimate is less than three thousand.

Despite the cover of the night, although the enemy divided his forces and gave him various opportunities to break through, such a deadly charge would have to pay a price! After more than a dozen attacks, half of the soldiers have died heroically, and the remaining half of the men and horses are also wounded. Not only did the soldiers bleed, but the horses were also scarred and snorting hard, and they were on the verge of exhausting their physical strength......

But everyone's faces were full of pride, although they couldn't see the scene of enemy corpses all over the field, wolves running wild, but they all knew very well that this battle was enough for them to leave a name in history, and they could compete with any legend!

"The enemy's formation is shrinking tighter and tighter, and we no longer have the ability to break through." Xu Huaiqing's right arm was stabbed, revealing his white bones, and he could only change his left arm to carry a Xuanhua axe, but he still smiled arrogantly at his sons: "But who cares, we don't want to get out alive!" ”

"Yes!" The soldiers were obviously tired and wanted to die, but after listening to Xu Huaiqing's words, they felt that the blood in their whole body was burning, and their strength returned to their bodies.

"Now we only have one last goal left, which is to make it until dawn!" Xu Huaiqing said proudly: "When it is dawn, our task will be completed!" At that time, if anyone with a big life is still alive, just run for their lives......" paused and said: "However, it is estimated that you will not be able to escape." ”

The soldiers burst into laughter, and then followed Xu Huaiqing to launch another attack!

As the vanguard of Wang Xian's army to open the mountain and pave the way, they only have to attack, attack, and attack again in their dictionary!

Even in this long and cold winter night, even if they are deeply surrounded by layers of enemy troops, even if there is no hope of survival, they still adhere to their creed, even if they die, they will die on the way to attack!

The enemy's formation has become denser and denser, and countless spears have formed a large formation of specialized cavalry! Xu Huaiqing's soldiers are getting smaller and smaller, their speed is getting slower and slower, and the power of their attacks is getting smaller and smaller, but they still follow their generals and fight in and out of the enemy formation!

What if the horses are stabbed to death by the enemy's spears, they can still dismount and fight on foot! What if the blade in your hand is knocked off, you can also punch and kick! What if your arms and legs are cut off, you can bite them with your teeth and hit them with your head! Even if you cut off their heads, you will have to spray the enemy's face with blood!

The officers and soldiers are completely frightened, what kind of madmen are these?! What is it that sustains them in such an unending frenzied battle?!

The officers and soldiers completely understood, no wonder they could sweep across the grassland and kill the invincible Tatars and Duoyan! It turned out that it was not at all what the imperial court advertised, and there was no luck at all!

The officers and soldiers of the army are completely confused, what is the reason why they must fight to the death with the heroes of these nations? Could it be that Wang Xian, whom these people swore to follow, was really a traitorous thief of the country as advertised by the imperial court?! (To be continued.) )
