However, he said that tens of thousands of enemy horsemen surrounded him one after another, and Song Jiang couldn't get out of it, and regretted it in his heart. Said to Hua Rong: "The virtuous brother is strong in martial arts, and he has a magic arrow, it is better to leave Song Jiang and escape alone, otherwise both of us will die here." ”

After Hua Rong experienced the setbacks of Duanjiazhai's fight, his heart stabilized a lot. He replied: "Today, my brother and I are going to die together, we want to live together, and we swear to die together!" ”

In the crisis, I saw that not far behind him, the dust was flying, and the fierce general Hu Yanzhuo shouted: "Don't panic, big leader, Hu Yanzhuo is leading the cavalry here." ”

It turned out that Song Jiang agreed with Hu Yanzhuo that after seeing the arrows rising in the sky, it was the time for him to rush out of the forest with 20,000 cavalry.

Subsequently, after Song Jiang encountered danger, when he was escorted by everyone and escaped, he forgot about it. Later, after thinking about it, Wang Ying had already sacrificed, and the arrow was still on Wang Ying.

Hu Yanzhuo was in the forest, and he didn't see the arrow rise for a long time, so he walked out of the woods and looked down the mountain, and it turned out that they had been defeated on all fronts. The phalanx was broken through, the Jin soldiers were chasing the Jin army, and many were already on their knees and captured.

So he rushed down the mountain with Qin Ming, Suo Chao, Ji Qing and others with cavalry.

They came at the right time, and Jin Wushu didn't expect that Song Jiang still had 20,000 cavalry hidden in the back mountain, and the four of them were all fierce generals in the world. Seeing that several of them finally came with cavalry, Song Jiang felt a little relieved.

When they rushed down from the mountain, on the one hand, they were condescending and took advantage of the position. On the other hand, in local areas, the cavalry of the Jin army had a relative numerical advantage. Therefore, as soon as they rushed down, they caught the Jinliao cavalry by surprise, not only drove away tens of thousands of enemy troops who wanted to capture Song Jiang alive, but also took the opportunity to rescue some of the defeated soldiers.

But soon, Wanyan Lou Room and Jin Wushu, who came later, discovered that there were cavalry of the Western Army here, and immediately asked the herald to transfer the cavalry on the nearby and opposite mountains to encircle and suppress them.

Fortunately, Hu Yanzhuo has been in battle for a long time and knows that he can't fall in love with the battle, so he ordered everyone to accept it when they see it, and don't want the enemy's cavalry to stick to it, otherwise the whole army may be wiped out......

In this battle, although the Jinliao coalition army lost another 30,000 people, it captured more than 80,000 people of the western army and wiped out more than 100,000 people of the western army, which was the first major victory after entering Taiyuan.

In addition to the 4,500 people in the pro-military battalion who escorted their families under the leadership of the deputy general Zheng Tianshou, only more than 10,000 people were withdrawn, and when the cavalry went down the mountain to save people, they lost another 5,000 people, so that more than 155,000 people on Song Jiang's side participated in the battle, and only more than 25,000 people remained.

Among the generals, Yang Xiong, Cai Fu, Cai Qing, Lei Heng, Yan Shun and others were killed in battle. If Song Jiang hadn't sacrificed himself to save him, he would have been captured alive.

Fortunately, Gongsun Sheng learned the swordsmanship of the Daomen, and his skills are superb, and he will come and go. He was originally arranged by Song Jiang at the mouth of the valley to command the sergeant to let go of the wooden stones, and after seeing that the situation was unfavorable to the western army, he asked the captain to take everyone to the mountain to retreat, and there was no need to line up a spear formation to fight with the enemy.

So the soldiers of this battalion he led did not go past and a platoon of spears from another battalion. Although most of the 10,000 soldiers of this battalion were killed in battle, after all, 2,000 men remained.

He settled his subordinates, rushed all the way to the middle, and saved Wei Dingguo, Hao Siwen, Huang Xin and others. Otherwise, these three generals will also die in the chaos like Yang Xiong, Yan Shun, Cai Fu, and Cai Qing.

After passing this, Gongsun Shengxuan saw Song Jiang thoroughly and knew that he would return to the Great Song Dynasty no matter what. However, according to Gongsun Sheng's understanding, Da Song has been damaged to the bone marrow and is hopeless.

A few days later, Song Jiang collected men and horses from all the counties along the way, and by the time he reached the farthest state in the east, there were another 60,000 men.

Fortunately, Tian Hu left Song Jiang with a rich family foundation and enough gold and silver, which created favorable conditions for him to make a comeback.

Three months later, in the first month of the following year, Song Jiang avoided the Jin-Liao coalition army all the way, recruiting troops along the way, and soon the number reached 120,000. At the same time, it also absorbed Zhang Qing, Xu Ning, Yang Lin, Deng Fei, Ou Peng, Hou Jian, Han Tao, Xuanzan, Shan Tinggui and other heroes and heroes, and their prestige was restored.

Under the banner of "Hebei regimental training, protecting the king of Beijing and Qin", they went all the way south and were received by the officials in various places, and when they arrived to the north of the Yellow River, it was already the middle of the first month. At this time, the Jin-Liao coalition army was not far from here, and Yang Jian had been ordered to lead the army to organize a defensive line near Tokyo and defend the Beijing division.

After Song Jiang arrived, he came to see Yang Jian with a generous gift, claiming that he was willing to contribute to the country under Yang Jian's command.

Yang Jian saw that Song Jiang was sensible and willing to spend money, and it was the time to employ people, so he played Zhao Gou, named him as the commander of the three products, became an independent army, and led the troops to defend the west of the Beijing Division.

Gongsun Sheng saw that Song Jiang already had a place to stay, so he said to Song Jiang: "My senior brother and I have been separated for more than three months, and I don't know if they are safe to escape." Therefore, I temporarily said goodbye to the big leader, went to Fenyang to inquire about the whereabouts of the senior brother, and after finding the senior brother, I came back to distance myself from the big leader. ”

Song Jiang knew that none of their brothers and sisters were willing to accept the court's recruitment, and after they left this time, they would not come back. But he was tactful, and he didn't say anything, he still smiled and said: "If you find Master Qiao, you must come with him to counsel military affairs and serve the country together." ”

Gongsun Sheng also feigned: "After finding the senior brother, persuade him to come with him." ”

……

Now let's talk about the recent situation of Sun An, Qiao Daoqing and others.

In the Battle of Panlong Valley in early September, 130,000 people participated in the battle, losing nearly 60,000 people, and more than 70,000 people retreated safely. This is still Sun An's proper handling of the enemy, anticipating the enemy first, otherwise the whole army may be wiped out. Fortunately, the main generals are all there, which is the capital for a comeback.

Some of the remaining subordinates were accepted in the counties they passed through, and by the time they arrived in the state where their families were settled, the team had another 110,000 people.

They rested here for a month, and after Qiao Daoqing, who was sent to contact Taiyuan Jiedu, one of the envoys in the Zhong Division, came back, he told Sun An that Zhong Shuai had written a letter of recommendation to them, asking them to go up to Taihang Mountain to find General Yang, and General Yang would naturally make proper arrangements for them.

Chong Shuai also quietly told Qiao Daoqing that General Yang had broken away from the control of the imperial court and joined the command of King Dasheng, who had already claimed the title of king overseas, and was now the Marquis of Dasheng Dynasty. In the future, after King Dasheng becomes orthodox in the Central Plains, the old general will definitely go further and become a first-class prince.

Therefore, if they go, Yang Laojun will definitely not treat them badly, and a loss will give them a high position of three to four grades.

Sun An summoned all the generals and conveyed the opinions of the shuai to them, so that they could express their positions, and everyone was willing to follow Sun An and Qiao Daoqing to Taihang Mountain. Qiao Daoqing and Gongsun Sheng had already expected this result, so Gongsun Sheng wanted to find Qiao Daoqing, and would go directly to the Yang family's general village to inquire.

In this way, the cadres of Tianhu, the former king of the Jin Dynasty, after the battle of Panlong Valley, were thrown into two different camps. Song Jiang, a celebrity who is bent on making a name for himself, has taken another detour on the road of life.
