Under the city of Lingcheng, at about four watches, Hua Mulan led the cavalry to arrive, and attacked the enemy's village at night on the way, but there was no leakage.

The only thing that stands in Mulan's way is the city wall.

The dismounted cavalry dug the earth as a hurdle, and everything was carried out quietly.

Hua Mulan has two Tang knives hanging from her waist to prevent one of them from curling the blade.

As long as the mound was high enough, she was able to climb the walls with a group of soldiers and seize the gates.

"It's so cold, there are still people fighting in such a ghost weather."

"Fortunately, we are only responsible for defending the city, so we don't have to go to the river to fight, otherwise it will be even harder."

The defenders of the city walls gathered around the brazier to make a fire.

Wu Sangui led the main force out of Lingcheng, leaving only a small number of defenders in the city.

Wu Sangui thought that if he dragged the opponent's main force, he would not have to worry about Chutian's surprise attack, and he couldn't imagine that in such a harsh environment, someone would dare to run sixty kilometers day and night and directly hit his rear stronghold!

Dozens of arrows were fired in the darkness, and the defenders gathered around the brazier were killed.

The other defenders immediately drew their swords and were killed by Hanaki's Iron Eagle scouts.

Except for the defenders of the city walls gathered near the braziers, the defenders at the city gate were sleeping soundly and were all killed.

Hua Mulan dragged the blood-stained Tang knife out and ordered the soldiers to open the gate of Lingcheng.

The sound of horses' hooves breaks the silence of the night and enters the city!

They started from the daytime, ran all the way for sixty kilometers, and tossed until the fourth watch at night before they came to Lingcheng, for this moment!

The defenders of the city were awakened, but it was too late, and they were greeted by the swords of the cavalry!

The heads of the people rolled down, the cavalry drove straight into Lingcheng, and Lingcheng of tens of thousands of people was controlled by Mulan!

On the other side, Li Guang's cavalry was completely lost in the darkness and snow, and Li Guang finally realized that he might be on the wrong path.

At this point, even if you turn back, it's too late.

The back road was covered with heavy snow, and Li Guang had no choice but to march north.

From the fourth watch to the fifth watch, Li Guang has been circling around.

"General, we seem to have returned to where we were. The villain lost a dagger, but he didn't expect to find it again. ”

A cavalryman reported to Li Guang.

“……”

Li Guang saw that it was dark around and the heavy snow was still continuing, so he really didn't know how to go, so he simply gave up on himself and gave up continuing to march: "The whole army camped and rested. Wait until dawn and then try to join the front army. ”

Li Guang's cavalry was about 700 people, and as a partial division and reinforcement, knowing that he was out of the team at this time and that he could survive was the greatest contribution to this battle.

Li Guang's depression didn't help, so he had to recuperate. Otherwise, because of the cold night, the whole army was frozen to death, and Li Guang would not be able to explain to Chutian.

It's okay to get lost, but if you get lost and the whole army is wiped out, you will be unlucky.

After resting for about three or four hours, the sky was slightly white, and Li Guang urged the cavalry to get up and go to join Hua Mulan as soon as possible.

If Mulan hadn't taken Ling Cheng yet, he could at least take it.

The Western Han Archer asked, "General, where should we go?" ”

Li Guang looked around, because the sky was white, Li Guang could already see the nearby terrain clearly-snow-covered and slaughtered.

"Where are we?"

Because Li Guang took the wrong road and marched at night, he lost his reference and could not judge the position.

can only be a dead horse as a live horse doctor.

In order to avoid affecting the morale of the army, Li Guang said confidently: "Follow me!" ”

Xiao Jian, the prime minister of Langya, led more than 10,000 soldiers to be stationed in a village.

Yesterday's blizzard seriously affected the speed of his march, so he had to camp in a nearby village, avoiding the wind and snow for the time being, and waiting until the snow stopped before marching.

"The whole army is assembled."

Xiao Jian personally took command and led more than 10,000 Juxian soldiers to leave the village.

When the Juxian soldiers reached the halfway point, the snow began again.

"What the hell is this weather!"

Li Guang finally discerned the north and south, and walked on a road that he thought was leading to Lingcheng, but it began to snow again, and soon he couldn't distinguish things again.

He thought he was marching in a northeasterly direction, but in fact he was marching in a northwesterly direction.

A Western Han archer cavalry galloped back and reported: "General, a large number of footprints have been found in the snow ahead, and they have not been completely covered by heavy snow!" ”

After hearing this, Li Guang quickly understood that an army dominated by infantry archers had just passed by!

On the other side of the Yi River, there were only two troops and horses, he and Mulan, all of whom were cavalry, and if the traces of the march were mainly the footprints of soldiers, it was likely to be enemy troops.

"Pursue it now!"

Li Guang only has seven hundred horsemen on his side, although he has the disadvantage of having fewer people, it also means that he has stronger mobility, can quickly gather troops, and then launch a surprise attack.

The cavalry always has the initiative on the battlefield.

Not only the main general Li Guang felt depressed, but also the cavalry under his command was also depressed, and now he finally found the enemy, swept away the haze, and pursued it hard.

Xia Cheng implements a military merit system, and generals and soldiers who have obtained military merit can get better treatment. Therefore, from the generals to the soldiers, they all aspire to military merit.

They had already lost their military merits in capturing Lingcheng, so they had to find another way.

Xiao Jian's more than 10,000 Juxian soldiers lined up in a long line and marched westward.

Suddenly, the soldiers walking at the back of the line heard a chilling sound.

"The sound of horses' hooves?"

"Is it our cavalry?"

The soldiers in the rear have not yet realized the seriousness of the problem.

They didn't think that the enemy's cavalry had gone around to the rear, and Wu Sangui was still confronting Chu Tian.

In the wind and snow, the tall horses appeared, this group of war horses was very strong, and the cavalry on horseback raised their sharp sabers!

The bow and arrow were affected in the snow, and Li Guang's light cavalry directly drew out the ring head sword melee combat, broke into the opponent's rear army, and slashed all the way!

A Juxian soldier didn't have time to dodge, and Li Guang, who took the lead, cut him down!

The fifth-order Western Han Dynasty archers were equally strong in hand-to-hand combat, and the opponent's infantry was defeated in a battle if they were defenseless!

Shouts of killing came from the rear.

"Find out what's going on now!"

Xiao Jian was located in the middle army, and due to the elongation of the large army, it took time for the Chinese army to deliver the news to the rear army.

"Your Excellency, the rear army is under attack by enemy cavalry!"

"Cavalry?!"

The personal soldiers around Xiao Jian were pale when they heard that they were being targeted by the cavalry.

"How can there be cavalry in our rear?"

"Prime Minister, please leave this place immediately under the protection of the villain!"

"No, as the main general, how can you escape from the battle, you will kill the thief with me!"

Xiao Jian drew his sword, intending to command his own troops to resist.

The soldiers around Xiao Jian were a little hesitant, but they still followed.

Li Guang's cavalry was spearheaded by the fifth-order Western Han Dynasty archers, slashing and killing soldiers along the way.

In fact, there were not many soldiers who were actually killed by Li Guang and others, and most of the soldiers saw that the situation was not good, and fled to the surrounding fields and mountains.

When Xiao Jian arrived with his own soldiers, he was already unable to contain the collapsed rear army.

Fugitive soldiers block the road.

"Kill them! To set the heart of the army! ”

Xiao Jian asked his soldiers to execute two deserters, and the army's morale calmed down a little.

However, the stability of the army's morale was only temporary, and soon Li Guang and his cavalry were killed in front of him.

Li Guang drove the rout to attack Xiao Jian and other troops that had not yet been defeated, and then slashed and killed himself in the rear.

Some of Xiao Jian's soldiers and horses, which had managed to stabilize with great difficulty, were crushed by the soldiers scattered in the rear, and Li Guangchang drove straight in!

Li Guang, who was lost, was annoyed and ashamed, and he was full of might!

He knew that if he could defeat the army in front of him, then at least he could offset the merits and demerits, and he would not be punished by Chu Tian.

"Your Excellency, the enemy rider is fierce, retreat quickly!"

Xiao Jian's personal soldiers saw that Li Guangrui was unacceptable, so they forcibly carried Xiao Jian away.

Xiao Jian is considered a civilian official, in fact, he can't lead troops to fight and use force, he was also stunned by Li Guang's ferocity, and he didn't dare to continue to fight, so he went down the steps of his own soldiers.

Li Guang had already cut through his rear army, most of the soldiers collapsed, and Xiao Jian and his own soldiers fled in the rout.

The armor worn by Xiao Jian and his own soldiers was more ornate than that of other soldiers, and Li Guang soon found out that the other party might be a general, so he led the cavalry to kill Xiao Jian and the others.

"Get out of here!"

Li Guang was dedicated to meritorious service, and the tiger's body was shocked, and the deserters in front of him were cut down by him!

Escape!

Xiao Jian and the rest of the soldiers had only one thought in their hearts.

"Your Excellency, get on the horse!"

The soldiers urged Xiao Jian to leave on a war horse.

Xiao Jian climbed onto the horse with the help of his own soldiers, but was congested by the routs everywhere.

The pro-soldiers escorted Xiao Jian and squeezed through the crowd.

Li Guang in the rear had no scruples, and directly killed a bloody road, and the corpses of Juxian soldiers were everywhere.

Li Guang is already approaching Xiao Jian!

Dozens of pro-soldiers drew their iron swords and tried to intercept Li Guang.

The head of the bucket fell to the ground, the blood stained the red and white snow, and the raised horses' hooves trampled the corpses!

Li Guang and his cavalry killed dozens of pro-soldiers, and pursued Xiao Jian in the 10,000-strong army, except for the pro-soldiers who worked hard for Xiao Jian, no one dared to step forward to stop them!

Xiao Jian looked nervously at the rear, and found that one of the other party's generals was chasing after him, and he was already less than twenty meters away from him!

Li Guang is more than 1.8 meters tall, his arms are thick and long, and coupled with his armor, he looks extraordinary compared to ordinary people.

Especially compared with Xiao Jian, who is a civil official, Li Guang is comparable to the god of war.

The distance between the two people was rapidly getting closer, and at this time, the high-grade Turkic war horse that Chu Tian rewarded Li Guang played a role.

The diamond-level Turkic war horse galloped like a fly in the chaotic army, coupled with the current force of 95, Li Guang, who is comparable to 10,000 enemies, the unlucky General Fei finally shined, killing more than a dozen soldiers in a row, God blocked and killed God, approaching Xiao Jian!

"Drink!"

Li Guangda shouted, caught up with Xiao Jian, regarded him as a general, and went all out to cut a knife!

Xiao Jian resisted with an iron sword.

The ring head knife was cut down, the weak iron sword was knocked away, Xiao Jianzhong knife, and his head rolled to the ground.

"Weak can't help the wind!"

Li Guang was a little surprised, but he didn't expect that the other party's main general was not even his enemy.

Li Guang caught a glimpse of the long sword that fell to the ground and seemed to be of good quality, so he picked it up as a trophy for the lord and proved that he had killed the enemy general.

He didn't know what he was killing.

Xiao Jian is nominally the minister of Langya, equivalent to the county Taishou, second only to the history of thorns in Xuzhou.

As a result, he died tragically under the knife of Li Guang, who was lost.

A literati encountered General Fei of the 95th Force, and was killed before he had time to beg for mercy.

As soon as Xiao Jian died, the remaining soldiers and horses dispersed, and Li Guang captured about 300 prisoners alive.

It's not that he can't catch more prisoners, but Li Guang's cavalry is not numerous, and he doesn't have the energy to chase down deserters.

The frightened captives were brought to Li Guang. The fierce man in front of him killed the prime minister of Langya in the midst of ten thousand armies.

Although the first rank of the enemy general among the ten thousand armies was on the premise that Xiao Jian's troops had been defeated, it still made everyone fearful.

Li Guang directly tortured the captives, and finally learned his location, but he was far away from Lingcheng and close to the Yihe River.

"How far is Wu Sangui's army from here?"

"About forty miles."

"Take Xiao Jian's banner, let's go and attack Wu Sangui!"

Li Guang made a quick decision.

Li Guang, who defeated Xiao Jian, swept away the previous haze and wanted to make meritorious service again.

Wu Sangui didn't know that Xiao Jian was defeated, as long as he was fast enough, he could defeat Wu Sangui before Wu Sangui learned the news!

Li Guang waved the banner of Xiao Jian, used the prisoner as a guide, and hurried up.

After occupying Lingcheng, Hua Mulan deliberately let go of part of Wu Sangui's cavalry and brought the news of the loss of Lingcheng to Wu Sangui's camp, causing panic in Wu Sangui's army.

"There seems to be a riot in the camp opposite...... It should be that General Mulan's surprise attack has worked. ”

Fang Xuanling climbed high to look at Wu Sangui's camp and made a judgment.

The stronghold was attacked by surprise, and this sudden incident was enough to shake the morale of the army.

"Presumably Zhou Yafu is ready to make him attack."

Chu Tian's side was not without movement.

When Mulan attacked Lingcheng, he ordered Zhou Yafu to lay a pontoon bridge in the upper reaches of the Yi River overnight, and the pontoon bridge was built overnight!

The pontoon bridge erected by the Taishan thieves downstream was only used to attract Wu Sangui's attention at first, and Zhou Yafu had already crossed the river overnight to prepare for battle.

The pontoon bridge erected by the Tarzan thieves was not completely useless, and it was only a hundred meters from the opposite bank.

"Once Zhou Yafu launches an attack and the opponent's army is shaken, then Yin Li will be ordered to complete this pontoon bridge at any cost, and we will flank Zhou Yafu!"

Chutian sent cavalry to inform the generals.

When Wu Sangui learned that Lingcheng was occupied, he was cowardly.

He needs food to fight a war, his food is all in Lingcheng, without food, he can't even fill his stomach, and no one will be willing to die for you.

"I can only retreat to Jucheng and ask Xiao Jian to take him in."

After Wu Sangui made up his mind, he was ready to leave behind the Taishan Thief Palace, which had no use value, and then led the elite soldiers to retreat.

The upper reaches of the river suddenly shouted and killed, and the old Chang Xuan troops stationed in the north were attacked by Zhou Yafu's fine willow battalion and were defeated one after another!

"The enemy crosses the river from upstream! Retreat now! Protect the lord and leave! ”

Wu Sangui didn't expect that Zhou Yafu would set up a pontoon bridge overnight, and the army would cross the river, so he could only take Qi Xiaobai hostage and leave.

A team of elite soldiers protected Wu Sangui and fled.

Wu Sangui was reluctant to kill Qi Xiaobai, and he had to use his identity as a player to get the blueprints of the seventh-level cavalry battalion.

"Cross the river!"

Wu Sangui gave up defending the other side of the river, and Yin Li immediately rushed to repair the pontoon bridge that had not yet been completed downstream, wanting to make meritorious contributions in front of Chutian.

The pontoon bridge he supervised was in a state of near-completion, and the defenders on the opposite side broke and fled, and the pontoon bridge was easily repaired.

Zhou Yafu sent Zang Ba and Sun Guan to act as vanguards, and the old department of Chang Feng saw Zang Ba and Sun Guan and looked down.
