Chapter Seventy-One: Clever Tricks to Break Shen Fu (II)

To the south of Yangcheng, a team that stretched for miles was marching in the southeast direction along the official road. Just look at this team with its flags and banners, dazzling armor, and majestic and powerful.

"General, should we speed up a little faster?" said a short-bearded strong man in his thirties on the side of the avenue to Shen Fu, the general of the upper army.

Shen Fu is also surnamed Shen, but he originally had nothing to do with Shen Xiu. If there is anything in common, it is that both of them are surnamed Shen, and both of them are from poor families. Shen Fu has been polished in the army for many years, and he can be regarded as a veteran general in the Great Jin Army, but he has never had the opportunity to take charge alone. Since Shen Xiu came to Shangluo from Chang'an, he deliberately made friends with many people from poor families, and one of his words was that everyone from poor families should take care of each other. Shen Fu recognized Shen Xiu's concept very much. After Shen Xiu assisted King Zhao in abolishing Empress Jia, Shen Fu even asked to join Shen Xiu, so that the two became a nominal family.

Among the leaders of the army, Shen Fu is as steady as a mountain, Zhang Hong is as fast as a tiger, and Shi Yi is as cunning as a fox.

Since the Emperor Fu of Qi raised the banner of crusading against Emperor Fu Lun of Zhao, the momentum of the adults is well known. According to Shen Fu's idea, no matter how much the equipment of the leading soldiers in the army is the best in the world, and no matter how brave and good at fighting, they can't stand the number of opponents too much. The coalition army was defeated, and King Zhao was defeated. His suggestion was to stick to Shangluo Baguan, be invincible first, and wait for the opportunity for the rebels to appear. Before he set off, he told Shen Xiu that if Shang Dongzhuo did not move the capital to Chang'an, but stubbornly defended Shangluo, and then broke through each after the civil strife of the coalition army, then there would be no follow-up development in history.

Shen Xiu was noncommittal about this. However, in the end, the boss of the east was still him Shen Fu instead of Zhang Hong, and Emperor Fu Lun of Zhao personally gave him the Jieyue in front of the end gate, so that he could control the generals.

Regarding Zhang Hongqi's attack on Dong Ai, the general of Long Xiang, Shen Fu fully agreed. The two armies are at war, and morale is of paramount importance. Achieving a big victory in a field battle is a great encouragement for your own side, but it is a major blow to the enemy. Dong Ai, Shen Fu, had worked with him before and knew him very well. This person is of high quality, fair, humble and courteous to his subordinates, happy when he hears his faults, and hurt when he hears others. According to Shen Fu's inner statement, during the Taiping period, Dong Ai's talent should be the choice of the three publics. However, above the battle array, it is not Dong Ai's strength.

Before Zhang Hong set off, Shen Fu deliberately told Zhang Hong in an accentuated tone: No matter what the victory is, you must not cross Yingshui. When he received a report from Zhang Hong that Zhang Hong had broken Dong Ai, he attacked Yang Zhai non-stop, and he was furious on the spot.

This put him in a dilemma.

If you don't support Zhang Hong, even if Zhang Hong's lone army goes deep and occupies Yangzhai, it will be a matter of time before he perishes. If you don't save yourself when you die, let alone that the national law does not tolerate it, the morale of the army on your side will plummet.

But let's rescue Zhang Hong, which is contrary to the plan he made at the beginning.

"It's extremely hateful!" Shen Fu scolded hatefully: "This Hejianzi has always refused to obey me, this time the lone army is going deep, I am afraid that he has thought about it a long time ago, that is, to force me to march, forcing me to have to fight against the King of Qi according to his plan." Fuck it, Hejianzi, I really can't kill you?"

Thinking of this, Shen Fu waved his hand at the strong man who asked for his order, and said in a deep voice: "After going another twenty miles, set up camp, and cross the river tomorrow." By the way, has the scouting horse sent out reported? Is there any update on Zhang Zhengyu?"

"General Hui, I haven't received the latest news from the captured general. ”

"Probe again, report as soon as there is news!"

"Yes, General!"

The general was about to beat his horse and leave to arrange Shen Fu's order, when he saw a scout horse coming with a horse covered in blood. When they approached, the probe fell off his saddle and knelt down on one knee and said, "General Hui, the enemy's advance is fierce, and it is less than twenty miles away from our army. ”

The strong general's face changed and said, "How many men and horses are there on the enemy?"

"The knights who covered their way were so skillful and skillful, and we marched forward bravely, but they were all defeated one by one, but from afar we saw that all of them were in armor, and the smoke and dust rose to the sky, and the soldiers and horses were very strong. ”

"Is there any news of the capture of the general?"

"The villain didn't see the men and horses sent by the general of the conquest. ”

"General, what are we going to do?"

"What else can I do?" Shen Fu said in a cold voice: "The soldiers will block the water and cover the earth, and the battalions will stop marching and prepare to meet the enemy." ”

"The subordinates have orders!"

After hearing this order, everyone around Shen Fu clenched their fists and responded, and then they all beat their horses and went to the camps.

"Stop advancing, set up your formation, and prepare to meet the enemy!" For a while, the voices of the commanders of each battalion were in front and back.

Looking at the busy but not chaotic changes in the formations of each battalion, Shen Fu's eyes showed a look of satisfaction. He has always been proud to be a member of the leading group of generals. This is the pro-army of the Great Jin Emperor, this is the strongest army in the world! In this head-to-head confrontation in the world, Shen Fu believes that the strength of the leading army in the middle can crush any opponent.

Morale can only be drummed, not vented!

Shen Fu had already made up his mind at this moment, and after defeating this opponent who dared to come and brush the tiger's whiskers, he immediately returned to Kunsaka Pass. As for the conquest general Zhang Hong, since he likes to go deep alone, he will die by himself. There are so many brave soldiers in the army, but because of his recklessness, he can't be surrounded by the Zhendong coalition army.

"Stop!" Di Jiajing looked at the leading army of the middle and leading troops who had quickly lined up the formation on a high slope, and frowned slightly. Along the way, he asked the big guy to raise the flag, and the knights in the rear even dragged a branch to bring up the dust. He had exhausted all the suspicious tactics he could think of, and now it was time for the two armies to go head-to-head.

"The leading army in China really deserves to be the strongest army in the world. Looking at the neat rows of military formations over there, and looking at the fine big shields and spears, Di Jiajing took a deep breath. He rode out in front of the crowd, and then turned his horse to look at the crowd. Looking at these young faces, some were hesitant, and many more had fear in their eyes.

Anyone who sees these tens of thousands of invincible heroes who are well-equipped and neatly arrayed will be afraid.

"Brethren. Di Jiajing brushed the ground and pulled out the sword at his waist, and said passionately: "The leader of the Great Jin Dynasty, known as the strongest army in the world, is in front of us. It is precisely because of them that the rebel emperor Fu Lun and Shen Xiu and others dare to act mischiefly and dare to kill the monarch in public. I know that you have some fear in your hearts right now, and to tell you the truth, I myself have some fear. ”

"But this is not shameful!" Di Jiajing paused for a moment and shouted in a louder voice: "It's a shame that the monarch is dead and we, as courtiers, can't seek justice for him, can't kill traitors." The ancients said: The lord humiliates the ministers to death. The monarch was humiliated by his courtiers, and it was unbearable, not to mention that the monarch was killed in public by traitors. ”

"Man is inherently dead, or lighter than a feather, or heavier than Mount Tai. Brothers, do you want to die in obscurity in bed one day in the future, or do you want to make a bang today, so that the people of the world will always remember our bravery and loyalty?"

"We are all willing to follow Di Peng's family and do him vigorously!" Chen Min was the first to respond in a loud voice.

"We are all willing to follow Di Peng's family!" everyone's fear was completely swept away at this time, and everyone shouted excitedly, and this shout reached the leader of the army over there, and immediately made many people change color. They could all hear the mortal heart on the other side from this shout.

"Okay!" Di Jiajing shouted with a resolute face, and then he rode with the long sword in his hand one by one and shot at the spear in the hand of the knight standing in the first row, shouting: "Line up!"

Everyone controlled the two neat columns of war horses under their crotches, and their eyes moved with Di Jiajing who was moving in the wind.

Di Jiajing finished fighting with everyone's weapons, and rode to the front of the team, "First row, raise your spear!"

After hearing Di Jiajing's order, the knights in the first row raised their spears horizontally, and the heads of the spears made of metal reflected a throbbing light in the afterglow of the setting sun.

"Brothers, follow me, rush!" Di Jiajing's sword swung forward, clamped the horse under his crotch, and rushed out first.

Behind him were three hundred and fifty-seven strong men on iron horses, all of them wearing armor, and their eyes were full of fearless momentum that would never return.

At this moment, it was the time when the sun was setting, and the fiery red light shone on them, shining on the faces of the leaders of the Central Army standing opposite, and the aura of slaughter suddenly permeated this battlefield, making people seem to be depressed and breathless.

Two hundred meters.

One hundred meters.

Fifty meters.

The soldiers on both sides could almost clearly see the sweat and beard on each other's faces, and they could feel the tense air breathed by the other party.

"Boom!" There was a sound, and Di Jiajing and the others broke into the battle formation on the right side of the central leader with a momentum of no return.

"Why don't you release the arrow?" Shen Fu, a member of the Chinese army, shouted angrily when he saw this scene: "Mo Yuan, what is he doing?"

"General Yu," just as everyone around Shen Fu looked at each other, a scout horse quickly came to him, rolled the saddle, dismounted, and said loudly: "General Yang Wei Mo Yuan escaped from the battle. ”

"What!" Shen Fu's eyes darkened when he heard the news, he shook his head slightly, forcibly calmed himself down, and when he raised his eyes, the army on the right had completely collapsed. His heart was cold, and at this moment, there was another whistling on the left, and when he turned his head to look, the large array on the left collapsed without a fight.

"Poof!" Shen Fu was so angry that a mouthful of blood spit out of his mouth, and there was a trance in his eyes, and everyone almost fell under the horse.

"General go quickly, our Chinese army has also collapsed!" shouted a knight who rushed up with an anxious face.

"The defeat is like this, what face do I, Shen Fu, have to return to Shangluo to face the Son of Heaven (Emperor Fulun of Zhao has already ascended the throne)!" Shen Fu looked at the soldiers of the leading army who were fleeing and had no resistance, and said this sadly, brushed the ground and pulled out the long sword on his waist and wiped it towards his neck.

History: In May of the fourth year of Yonghe, Di Jiajing, a subordinate of the king of Qi, led the remnants of Longxiang to the north to fight the main force led by Shen Fu, the general of the army. The Yangwei general Mo Yuan fled from the battle, and the general of the upper army, Shen Fubing, was defeated and committed suicide. After hearing the news, the general of the Kunban Pass led the army to surrender to Di Jiajing, and the Zhendong Righteous Army occupied the Kunban Pass. On the second day, Shi Chao, a general under the command of the CD king, led the army to defeat first and then win, defeating the general Shiyi. Shi Yi led the defeated army to flee back to the south bank of the river, and at the same time burned the pontoon bridge to stop the army of the king.
