The time soon came to the beginning of the day (7 p.m.).

The sun had already sunk into the western horizon, but it was still at least half an hour before it got dark.

Glancing at Yiding more than fifty steps ahead, Zhuo Butai couldn't help but hesitate a little, judging from the time, Lord Bai Yintu and they should have already gone far, otherwise end the fight early?

After all, there is no point in chasing it like this, it will only waste physical strength in vain.

"Look, there are Ming cavalry behind us!" One of the Eight Banners shouted.

Zhuo Butai suddenly turned his head and was surprised to find that there was really a Ming cavalry behind them, and there were quite a few of them, at least more than 2,000 horsemen!

"Damn it, there are Ming reinforcements at this time!"

Zhuo Butai knew that he couldn't chase anymore, otherwise he would be attacked by Yi Ding and the Ming cavalry who rushed to help, and his more than 600 horsemen would all be buried here.

"Blow the trumpet quickly, and the whole army will turn to the northwest!"

At this time, it is not only necessary to complete the escape before the Ming cavalry and Yiding form a siege, but also after getting rid of it, they can't go after Yintu and them, otherwise they will lead a thousand Yiding and more than 2,000 Ming cavalry over, so that not only his two two Niu Lu more than 600 horsemen, but also the three Niu Lu of Baiyintu and the rout of Ao Bai will also be in danger.

Therefore, they could only lead Yiding and the Ming cavalry away in the direction of the Daimyo's Mansion.

The horn sounded, and the Jiannu cavalry immediately abandoned Yiding and fled in the northwest direction.

……

Jiannu turned around and ran wildly to the northwest, but Yiding was in no hurry to chase and kill.

Hu Guozhu instead took a thousand Yiding to meet the Ming cavalry who came to help, only to see that the leader Huo Ran was Huang Degong.

"Jing Nanbo!" Hu Guozhu hugged his fists at Huang Degong on horseback, and said proudly, "The armor is on your body, please forgive the juniors for not being able to pay a big salute to you." ”

"No need." Huang Degong didn't talk much nonsense, waved his hand and said, "Let's hurry up and kill Jiannu." ”

After Huang Degong finished speaking, he was about to rein in his horse to chase and kill Jiannu, but before he could start, he was stopped by Hu Guozhu.

"Jing Nanbo, the younger generation has a word." Hu Guozhu said, "I'm afraid it's difficult for us to catch up with Jiannu if we chase like this." ”

"Can't catch up?" Huang Degong's eyes widened and he said angrily, "I didn't chase after you, how do you know that you can't catch up?" ”

Hu Guozhu said: "The younger generation grew up at the southern foot of Yanshan Mountain since childhood, and followed his father into the mountains to hunt at a very young age, and he still knows a little about the habits of war horses......

"Don't talk about that, you just get to the point."

"The point is, we 3,000 people will chase, and in the end we will definitely catch up with Bu Jiannu, because Jiannu can spare no horsepower, but we can't ride the war horse to death, otherwise there will be no use for horses in the future."

Now Huang Degong understood: "So what do you mean?" ”

"Give us all the horses." Hu Guozhu said, "We have three horses alone, and we will be able to catch up with Jiannu!" Not only the more than 600 Jiannu in front, but also the Jiannu who were defeated from Xia Zhen don't want to escape one, they all have to die! ”

"Three horses for one man?" Huang Degong's gaze pierced into Hu Guozhu's eyes like a sharp sword.

Hu Guozhu looked at Huang Degong calmly: "Is Jing Nanbo worried that the younger generation will take the opportunity to take away all the 1,000 Yiding?" Not to mention that the younger father and son are now loyal to the saint, absolutely no two hearts, taking a step back, even if the younger generations really have two hearts, they won't go with me, right? ”

"I definitely won't." A few of the charcoal said without thinking.

Isn't it good for a fool to follow Hu Guozhu and become a nobleman with the saint?

"Forgive me for not having the guts." Huang Degong snorted and said, "I'll go with you." ”

Hu Guozhu smiled and said: "If Jing Nanbo wants to go, he can only bring dozens of relatives, or if there are not enough horses, it will be difficult to catch up with Jiannu and kill them all." ”

"You don't have to bring your family with you." Huang Degong said, "I'm alone." ”

"Okay, without further ado." Hu Guozhu said, "Let's go quickly." ”

Huang Degong should let Huang Shi'an bring the Ming army back, and the war horse stayed.

Hu Guozhu asked each of the 1,000 Yiding to lead two spare war horses, and then followed the traces left by Jiannu and chased them all the way in the direction of Daming Mansion.

……

ran out for more than ten miles, and found that Yiding and the Ming army did not catch up, Zhuo Butai's hanging heart fell back into his stomach, it seems that the Ming army did not intend to fight with them.

If the Ming army spared no effort to fight them, it would be really a bit troublesome.

"Phew." Zhuo Butai gently pulled the reins of the horse, slowing down the horse, and the Jiannu behind him also slowed down.

Untying the water bladder from behind the saddle, Zhuo Butai was just about to take a sip of water when a loud roar suddenly sounded behind him.

"Lord Zhuo Butai, those damned Yiding have caught up again, and one man has brought three war horses!"

"Huh?" Zhuo Butai's heart suddenly froze, and when he looked back hurriedly, he saw that the Ming army's Yiding had chased after him from the side and rear, and it was really one person and three horses, which was in trouble.

"Let's go!" Zhuo Butai poured a large mouthful of water, beat his horse and ran forward.

More than 600 horsemen and slaves urged their horses and galloped forward again.

This run was half an hour, and it was dark, but Yiding was still chasing after him.

After half an hour of galloping, Jiannu's physical strength was still enough, but the war horse was already unbearable.

In the sound of the horse's hooves, Zhuo Butai could clearly hear the heavy panting sound of the war horse, and the body and even the mane of the war horse had been soaked with sweat.

If he runs any further, the war horse will be foaming at the mouth, and he may fall to the ground at any time.

War horses do not know how to protect themselves, and if the cavalry does not shout to stop, they will run until they die.

"Don't run away!" Zhuo Butai made a big bow with his backhand and said sharply, "Fight with them!" ”

The more than 600 Jiannu cavalry who followed behind slowed down, and the horses turned around and lined up again.

After forming a cavalry formation, Zhuo Butai took more than 600 Jiannu to accelerate again, but this time he went straight towards Yiding, and he actually wanted to hedge with Yiding's cavalry.

However, to his annoyance, Yidin also turned around and ran backwards.

Jiannu continued to speed up and chase forward, and Yiding also accelerated and fled, but he couldn't catch up.

After chasing for a while and finding that he couldn't catch up, Jiannu could only give up, turned around and continued to retreat in the direction of the Daimyo's Mansion.

But as soon as Jiannu retreated, Yiding followed and caught up, and always kept fifty or sixty paces away from Jiannu, and there was still a small number of nights in front of the cavalry, so Jiannu didn't want to use the cover of night to kill Yiding by surprise, this is all Yiding's leftovers, and there is no need to get an axe.

There is no way, Jiannu can only go around and come back to impact Yiding.

However, Yiding still refused to confront Jiannu head-on, and once again turned and retreated.

After repeating this several times, the time came to the middle of the night, and Jiannu's war horses finally ran out, and with a wail, one after another war horses foamed at the mouth and fell to the ground.

As a result, Jiannu passively changed from cavalry to infantry.

Jiannu went from cavalry to infantry, but it has not yet collapsed.

More than 600 Jiannu lined up in a phalanx and began to retreat on foot.

I have to say that Jiannu is really tough, and it hasn't collapsed at this time.

Yiding began to try to attack, constantly approaching the Jiannu infantry phalanx with small groups of cavalry, and Jiannu could only release arrows in order to prevent Yiding from approaching.

Soon, all the arrows were gone.

But the lethal effect is not satisfactory.

The darkness of the night seriously affected Jiannu's accuracy.

There weren't many heavy arrows carried by each Jiannu in the first place.

When the arrows were exhausted, they became lambs to the slaughter.

With the help of the speed of the war horse and the powerful impact ability, Yiding began to continuously attack Jiannu, but it was not a forward charge, but an oblique charge, just like a knife and a face, each impact was just a small piece of dough from the large dough of Jiannu, and it was cut and sharpened, and it was cut and sharpened......

By dawn the next day, the dough was finally peeled.

When the last Jiannu fell to the ground, Hu Guozhu put the blood-dripping long-handled knife in front of the saddle, turned over and dismounted and shouted: "All dismount and rest, hurry up to eat and drink, and feed some essence to the war horse, and assemble in a quarter of an hour!" ”

Hu Guozhu's ambition is not just to eat the 600 Jiannu after the break, but to go south to all the Jiannu.

The Battle of Xuzhou has been going on until now, and almost all the soldiers of the Ming army, including Hu Xinshui, have inexplicably had first-class confidence in the Ming Dynasty or Emperor Chongzhen.

Now I am afraid it is no longer a question of whether or not we can hold the Yellow River.

With the strength of the Xuzhou defense line, is there still a problem in holding the Yellow River?

The question now is, when will the Holy Lord put the court in order, when will he be able to raise enough food, and when will he be able to launch the Northern Expedition? That's a good time for their generals to make a contribution.

Hu Guozhu has long lost the idea of returning to Wu Sangui's command.

What kind of thing is Wu Sangui? The emperor doesn't follow, with a lackey?

A quarter of an hour passed quickly, and Hu Guozhu turned over and stepped onto the war horse.

"The eagle on the grassland will not let go of any birds that invade its territory, and the wolves in the desert will also tear up and eat the beasts that invade their homes, the stupid Jiannu has desecrated the dignity of the Son of Heaven, as the loyal guardian of the Son of Heaven, even if he chases to the ends of the earth, he will never let go of any blasphemer, warriors, kill!"

"Kill!" Wu Gang Tan, Mengke Rabbit and other Yi Ding shouted loudly.

Huang Degong's heart was slightly cold, and he said that although Hu Guozhu was young, he was very good at inspiring, and he stirred up the emotions of these Yiding with just one sentence.

If such a person is loyal to the Ming Dynasty, it will be fine.

If he is disloyal to the Ming Dynasty, isn't it the second Nurhachi?

However, such a thought is fleeting, even if Hu Guozhu will really become the second Nurhachi, it is far from the time to prevent it.

"Kill!" Huang Degong also yelled.

"Drive!" Hu Guozhu reined in his horse's head and galloped towards the north.

"Drive!" A thousand Yiding turned their horses' heads one after another, and followed Hu Guozhu to the north.

Soon, a thousand Yiding drove more than 3,000 horses and disappeared on the northern horizon, only the dust raised in the air, obscuring the rising sun that had just risen from the eastern horizon.
