Chapter 444: An Unexpected Enemy
Just when the Yan army began to fight back, Zhu Gaoxu had already held back enough energy to find Qu Neng for revenge, and kept muttering in his heart,
"Okay, you Qu Neng, this puppet, hurt Chen Heng first, threatened his father, and almost grabbed him away from us, and then incited to shout for 'kill Yan', and saw which of us killed whom in the end!"
Therefore, after seeing that the southern army was in chaos, he didn't say hello to his father, and led the personal guards he brought to rush forward, and also instructed,
"Go find Qu Neng father and son for me, and there will be no forgiveness when you see them!"
"Obey!"
The young prince gave an order, and the guards who had been following him all the time naturally knew his character, and they would never be ambiguous when they knew who Zhu Gaoxu was going to kill, so everyone's attention was on the father and son Errao.
And Qu Neng's father and son were still trying to stabilize the formation at first, but the next fire that burned with the wind trapped them in the middle, and they finally rushed out of the flames, but they were surrounded by the people led by Zhu Gaoxu. Knowing that there was no possibility of getting out, Qu Neng had no choice but to look back and smile bitterly at his son,
"It seems that you and I, father and son, are going to be loyal to the country today."
"Father, the child will follow you wherever you go!"
His son nodded as he did, and father and son rushed together towards the enemy.
Zhu Gaoxu sneered when he saw it, raised the bright silver spear in his hand, shouted "Kill them for this young king", and took the lead to meet him. In the end, both father and son were killed......
Seeing the peace of this scene from afar, he had no choice but to chase the direction of Li Jinglong's retreat and retreat.
This tragic battle is nearing the end, Li Jinglong led the defeated army to flee all the way, and Zhu Di led the Yan army to chase behind, but this chase and escape also looked very chic.
The southern army that fled in front was naturally in an irregular formation and chaotic, and they lost things while running, whether it was weapons, heavy weapons, or even soldiers, and they lost all the way to escape. The people chasing behind him were Zhu Di who led his entourage and confidant generals, and thousands of cavalry chased after him unhurriedly.
That's not wrong at all, it's just unhurried—
If these light cavalry led by Zhu Di had been allowed to chase at full speed, they would have been able to catch up with the other party a long time ago, but he told everyone to drive the southern army back to Texas in this way, and even issued a secret order in the process of pursuit, no one could kill Li Jinglong, so let him run. And the most Yan Jun did at this time was to collect the materials and soldiers left by the other party, and keep bringing them back to the camp.
Under the leadership of Zhu Di, the Yan army chased until the vicinity of the Yueyang Bridge in a relaxed mood like a horse outing, but what I didn't expect was that there was a team of about tens of thousands of Rao Nan soldiers and horses on the opposite side of the bridge, and they looked energetic and neat.
You don't need to ask to know that this is definitely not Li Jinglong's department who has been on the run, so who will it be......
With this question, Zhu Di restrained the horse, ordered the soldiers of the whole army to stop advancing, and then immediately looked at the opposite bank, which immediately surprised him.
But I saw a member of the main general headed by the opposite, tall and majestic, plump and handsome, and he turned out to be a person he couldn't be more familiar with-
Governor of the Left Army, Duke of Wei, Xu Huizu.
The capital has been farewell, and it has been more than a load, and I don't want to see each other again has become an enemy. Zhu Di looked straight at the other party, and the other party was also looking at him from the other side, but Xu Huizu's eyes had long since lost his former respect and caution, and all that was left was indifference and hostility......
"Dad, isn't that my uncle!"
Zhu Gaoxu also caught up from behind, and couldn't help but be surprised when he saw this scene.
Zhu Di smiled helplessly,
"Of course I can see your father clearly, I don't need your son to tell me. Come on! Pass the king's order to collect the troops and go back. ”
"Why! Are we still afraid that he won't succeed?! ”
Zhu Gaoxu was very unconvinced.
Zhu Di looked at him, knocked his son's head with a horsewhip and said,
"Huh? The one on the other side is your uncle, don't bother to talk and go back with your father. ”
"Oh, got it......"
Zhu Gaoxu touched his head reluctantly and glared at Xu Huizu opposite.
The Yan army began to retreat down in turn, because it was also necessary to guard against the reinforcements of the southern army who would chase and kill from behind, Zhu Di took a part of the people to stay by the bridge and personally behind the palace, until everyone was almost safely withdrawn, and when he looked back, he saw that Xu Huizu also commanded the men and horses to retreat slowly......
The Battle of Baigou River ended with another resounding victory for the Yan army.
Returning to the camp, Zhu Di arranged for good people to count the captured weights, incorporated the soldiers of the Southern Army, and after inspecting the battalions, he hurriedly came to visit Chen Heng's big tent.
Chen Heng was injured in the thigh and lower abdomen, although he was treated and had no worries about his life at this time, the situation at that time was also quite dangerous. At this time, Chen Heng, who had already woken up from a coma, saw that King Yan came to visit him in person, and hurriedly wanted to get up, but was held down by Zhu Di in time.
"General Chen, don't move, this king is here to see how your injuries are."
"Let Your Highness bother, the last general is really useless......"
Although they were originally Ming soldiers, this Chen Heng surrendered later, and he originally saw that King Yan handed over the heavy responsibility of the vanguard of the right army to him this time, and he also wanted to make a great contribution to repay His Highness's kindness, but who knew that he was defeated so quickly, and it was inevitable that he felt a little guilty in his heart.
Zhu Di naturally understood his intentions, so he comforted him slowly,
"General Chen, don't be like this, although you were defeated by the other party, you also restrained them for a while, which also helped this king a lot."
"General Chen, don't worry, your young king has already taken out this evil breath for you, and the Qu Neng father and son who stabbed you have been slaughtered by me!"
Zhu Gaoxu on the side said loudly.
But for some reason, when this incident was mentioned, everyone, including Zhu Di, was not happy, although that person brought a lot of trouble to everyone, but they always felt that the ending of their father and son dying on the battlefield was not so comfortable......
Coming out of Chen Heng's tent, everyone returned to the Chinese army tent together. At this time, the whole army had cleaned the battlefield, buried the remains of the soldiers who died on both sides, and counted the heavy and descended soldiers, and the battle was fruitful, and the soldiers and horses were expanded from 100,000 to 200,000, which can be described as a complete victory.
It's just that Zhu Di, who is the head coach, didn't dare to relax, because he knew very well that if it wasn't for the help of the strong wind, he might have been captured alive by the other party at this time, but this victory seemed brilliant, but it was really a fluke.
However, Zhu Di probably didn't expect that in his three-year "Battle of Jingjing", Gale helped him more than once, and the fluke did not happen this time.
Returning to the big tent of the Chinese army with the generals, Zhu Di first arranged for Chen Heng and other soldiers to escort him back to Beiping, and then sat with other generals under his command, eating dinner sent by his own soldiers, and chatting about the military situation together.
