Tan Yuan and the others each picked a root of cocoon grass and put it in their mouths, then found a place in the river, and sent someone to watch from the shore.

After standing in the water for more than ten minutes, Tan Yuan was afraid that it would not be good to be in the water for a long time, so he called the whole army ashore.

Just after resting for a while, someone came from the front to call, the southern army is coming.

Everyone hurried into the river again.

Thousands of people jumped into the river like dumplings, the river was full of grass, and after jumping down and bending down, there was almost no human figure, and some people in Zhu Gaoxu listened to Song Meng's words, hid under the bridge, and didn't want to bury their heads under the water.

This southern army is a sentry scout, only a few dozen horsemen, they came just right, not long after rushing across the Yueyang Bridge, Pan Zhong and Yang Song went to Xiongxian with a large number of soldiers and horses.

There were almost tens of thousands of people in the wave of Pan Zhong and Yang Song, rushing across the Yueyang Bridge in a chaotic manner, and no one noticed that there were occasional fluctuations in the water below the bridge.

When the last group of people crossed the bridge, about a hundred people remained and stood guard on the bridge.

Tan Yuan will also stand under the bridge, standing with Wang Bin and others.

They silently waited for the Southern Army to pass by.

And then just wait for the time.

Pan Zhong's front army had a small number of cavalry, and the rear was full of infantry, and the infantry ran over slowly.

So they waited for about a quarter of an hour.

"Do it." Tan Yuan laughed wickedly at this time and pulled out his long knife.

In an uproar, the Yan troops in the water came forward one after another, and several generals such as Tan Yuan and Wang Bin quickly docked.

Later, it is almost the same as the original history, Pan Zhong and Yang Song have not yet arrived in Xiongxian, and they have already encountered a group of southern army deserters saying that Xiongxian is gone.

Pan Zhong and Yang Song were shocked, they didn't expect so much, they would be broken in less than half a day.

Yang Song scolded: "Zhu Wei misunderstood me." ”

Zhu Wei was his lieutenant general, and after he left, he asked Zhu Wei to guard Xiongxian County well to prevent the Yan army from attacking the city, and asked Zhu Wei to send ten teams of sentry spies outside the city, because in case the Yan army came to surround it, there were sentry agents who could report the news.

It was precisely this arrangement that they received a report from the sentry and came to support.

Pan Zhong also considered with him whether to go to Xiongxian, there were already people calling in front of him, and Yan Jun might be coming out of Xiongxian.

The two were frightened and hurried back with the army.

Unexpectedly, when I returned to the Yueyang Bridge, it was the black pressure that the southern army was guarding.

At this time, they had already entered Baiyangdian, and it was impossible to retreat from the original road, and they were surrounded by the front and back.

Pan Zhong and Yang Song could only shout and rush over, and only by rushing over could they live.

The southern army rushed forward with all his might, and Tan Yuan also commanded the soldiers and horses to block it.

At this time, Zhu Gaoxu was by the river, watching the battle in the field.

The soldiers and horses on both sides entered a melee, but in his opinion, the morale was the Yan army, but the situation was good for the southern army.

Because there are new soldiers in the Yan army, there are many new soldiers in his soldiers and horses, and there are many cavalry in the Yan army, but now it is not conducive to the cavalry, and the cavalry is not allowed to rush up.

There are still more key southern armies, more than twice as many as them.

Zhu Gaoxu looked left and right, Tan Yuan was still relatively fierce, and he was leading his three thousand people to fight fiercely with each other.

There were many soldiers on the opposite side, but most of them were infantry, and Tan's soldiers were few, but they were originally all cavalry.

But now everyone is crowded in the limited space north of the Yueyang Bridge, and the cavalry can't rush up, so Tan Yuan's cavalry is dismounting and fighting on foot.

The forwards of the two armies soon became entangled and turned into a scuffle, with arrows raining down in the air, shooting at each other, all of them the archers in the back.

However, the Ming army was not equipped with many archers, so the impact was not very great.

It's just that every time someone is hit by an arrow, there will be a scream, and it sounds like the battle is very tragic.

The morale of both sides is not low, Pan Zhong and they want to rush across the bridge to return to Juzhou, so they are desperate, Tan Yuan wants to force them down, and the rear of the Yan army is also desperate, and it is difficult to distinguish between up and down for a while.

But Tan Yuan's side will definitely have few soldiers, if he continues to fight like this, it will take a long time, and the rear of the Yan army will definitely lose.

"Your Highness can let the cavalry charge for a while." Just as Zhu Gaoxu was watching the battle left and right, Xu Xiang spoke.

Xu Xiang has actually been waiting for Zhu Gaoxu, and everyone said that the king of Gaoyang County is brave, but they didn't expect that the king of Gaoyang County would not rush into battle today.

Of course, he couldn't think of what Zhu Gaoxu was thinking now.

The battle of more than 10,000 people in the two armies, I rushed to find death? Sick in the brain?

The front is full of infantry, Zhu Gaoxu is rushing up now, it is easy to be blocked by the infantry, once he loses mobility, it is very dangerous, and the key is that intermittent bows and arrows are shot over.

Zhu Gaoxu wanted to take another look, but he didn't expect Xu Xiang to propose that he rush into battle.

"The infantry on the opposite side is dense, the space north of the bridge is limited, and the cavalry is afraid that they will suffer losses." Zhu Gaoxu said quietly.

"Lunge at them." Xu Xiang pointed to the front and said: "The left and right flanks are both close to the river, so the southern army has gaps and weak formations, because everyone doesn't dare to get too close to the river, for fear of falling into the river." ”

"The cavalry can rush in, have a chance to charge them directly into the river, and if they break through a gap, they will inevitably collapse."

Zhu Gaoxu looked at it calmly, and sure enough, there was a look of admiration on his face.

The space on the north bank of the Yueyang Bridge is limited, and the sides are all rivers, and a large number of southern troops are concentrated in the middle, so the middle formation is very thick, and everyone is reluctant to go to the side, just for fear of being squeezed into the river.

So now the southern army in the center is very dense, and the two flanks are relatively weak.

Xu Xiang is not a veteran and has a lot of experience, just by watching it, he can see the weaknesses of the other party.

Zhu Gaoxu learned again.

He was shocked, and after thinking about it, he immediately said, "Order, all departments gather with me and follow me." ”

He ordered ten of his own soldiers to be called.

On the side, Zhao Qing repeated again: "Order, all departments gather to His Highness and follow His Highness." ”

The ten pro-soldiers repeated it in front of Zhu Gaoxu, and then everyone pulled out a yellow ribbon from their horses and tied it to their pointed head hats.

"Let's go." Ten personal soldiers rushed out and divided into Zhu Gaoxu's ten hundred-man team.

As they ran, they shouted, "Assemble with Your Highness and go with Your Highness." ”

The war horses galloped, the yellow ribbons floated high, and Wang Bin and others, who were fighting with the southern army, saw it.

There are also people who don't see it, but there will be a general flag or a reminder from the subordinates.

"Assemble with Your Highness and go with Your Highness."

"Assemble with Your Highness and go with Your Highness."

"It's the yellow ribbon, gather with Your Highness."

Everyone was looking at Zhu Gaoxu's banner, only to see that the banner quickly crossed the bridge and retreated to the south of the bridge.

But the five hundred horsemen sent by Xu Zhong didn't know the news of Zhu Gaoxu, so they basically didn't move, and they were still fighting with Tan Yuan.

Tan Yuan was fighting viciously in front, and when he looked back, he vomited blood angrily.

"What does the King of Gaoyang want to do?" Running away? Want to frame me?

But now he can't do anything but desperately let the soldiers and horses block the southern army.

Fortunately, there is not much space here, and his 3,000 soldiers and horses are guarding the bridge, and they are still guarding it, but there are a lot of casualties.

The Southern Army wanted to cross the bridge and escape, but of course fought desperately.

Zhu Gaoxu called a personal soldier at this time: "Go and inform Tan Yuan, the king's cavalry will rush up in a while, let his soldiers and horses make way to the two wings, otherwise they will rush to their own people, don't blame me for being unkind." ”

"Yes, Your Highness."

You repeat, Zhu Gaoxu said.

"His Royal Highness's cavalry must rush up and let Tan Yuan's soldiers and horses give way to the two wings, otherwise they will rush to them." The pro-soldier tried to say his full meaning as simply as possible.

"Okay." Zhu Gaoxu was very satisfied.

He turned and led everyone backwards, farther and farther away from the bridge.
