Two days later, Zhang Guangdao came with a large army, counting the cavalry of Deng Chun and Chen Ziyi, as well as civilian and logistical personnel, the strength of the army had exceeded 20,000 (not counting the people).

Zhang Guangdao came in the morning, and Jin Bing also arrived in the afternoon.

For the time being, Wanyan Tart lazily led the troops and led the main force to join Wanyan Zongwang.

And the deputy marshal Wanyan Yanmu, with some golden soldiers, went around to arrest the people to cut wheat, and robbed Hebei Xinmai along the way to supplement the military rations.

"Why can't you get to the river?" Wan Yan asked lazily.

Wanyan Zongwang said angrily: "I only have cavalry in my hands, the Song people have already taken precautions, and they have demolished the bridge, how dare they cross easily?" Just waiting for you to come with the troops! ”

These two are cousins and nephews.

The troops in Wanyan Tart's hands have a total of four fierce an. However, when Wumeng'an was founded, Wanyan tart lazily recommended candidates to serve as the commanders, and there were even Khitan and Xi people. He also recommended the Khitans and Han people as officials, and from then on, the Jinguo Prefecture was governed by Khitan and Han officials.

Wanyan tart lazy relies on the Han people, not because he admires the Han culture, but because of his political fundamentals, that is, the northern Han people and the Sinicized Khitans!

In terms of the attitude towards the Great Song Dynasty, Wanyan tart laziness always belongs to the main and faction, that is, let the Great Song Dynasty cut the land and pay compensation, and there is no need to knock it to death with a stick.

Wanyan Tart is lazy as the overseer of the East Road, and has a tense relationship with the coach Wanyan Zongwang.

But on the whole, the two are allies, and they were both raised by Wu Qimai to fight against the powerful Wanyan Zonghan.

How awesome is Wanyan Zonghan?

Many times, Wu Qimai, the emperor of the Jin Kingdom, also had to listen to him!

Wanyan Zongwang said: "The ferry port has been chosen, the boats have been prepared, and we will cross the river downstream tonight." ”

Liu Yanzong then took the Han soldiers and quietly transferred to the downstream ferry. They needed to cross the river first, in case they were attacked by the half-crossing, and these Han soldiers were also damaged. If the Han soldiers successfully crossed the river, they formed a formation on the opposite bank to meet them, and the Jin soldiers passed without any danger.

Liu Yanzong's ancestor was Liu Yan, the envoy of the Tang Dynasty, who served as the prime minister of Liao for six consecutive generations, and Liu Yanzong himself also served as a member of the Privy Council of Liao.

Now, Liu Yanzong is the supreme commander of the Han soldiers of the Jin State, and even manages a part of the Khitan soldiers.

Deng Chun's light cavalry was scattered out to cruise, and the next morning he found that most of the Jin soldiers had crossed the river downstream, and immediately went back to report the news to Zhang Guangdao.

"Continue to retreat south!" Zhang Guangdao ordered.

Although it will cause suffering and even kill many people in the suburbs, exposing them to the iron hooves of the Jin people, but the order given by Zhu Ming is like this.

It is necessary to let the officials and citizens inside and outside Tokyo understand how terrible the golden people are!

Zhang Guangdao's army retreated all the way to the vicinity of Chicang Town and camped between the Huimin River and the Cai River.

Until now, Wanyan Zongwang and others still thought they were Song soldiers.

Wanyan Zongwang sent out cavalry to cover the battlefield and prevent the enemy from discovering his reality, and soon these cavalry explored Zhang Guangdao's camp.

"The Song people are cowardly, on the side of Chicang Town, it must be the Western Army of King Qin, and when they saw my Dajin Heavenly Soldiers, they were so frightened that they retreated again and again," Guo Yaoshi suggested, "As long as this Song army is defeated, the Song army in the city will not dare to fight again." ”

Wanyan Zongwang also thought so, he must fight the troops outside the city first, so do you still send troops to attack the city directly?

Without figuring out who the enemy was, the Jin soldiers began to move to attack.

Wanyan Zongjun led thousands of light horsemen, including Guo Yaoshi, to cross the river between Tokyo City and Akakura Town. The Cai River was not wide, and there were a large number of golden soldiers with bows to cover it, and these thousands of light horsemen quickly crossed the river and gained a firm foothold.

Immediately afterwards, Wanyan Zongbi took 3,000 Hezha Meng'an and crossed the river smoothly under the response of the light cavalry.

Hezha Meng'an, also known as the escort army, is the elite of the elite, and there were less than 10,000 people in the heyday of the Jin Kingdom. But then it became a little stretched, and it became more and more desperate, after all, they were nominally noble guards.

Now is the time of the fiercest!

"Keep retreating!"

Zhang Guangdao has 20,000 soldiers in his hands, how can he fight hard with tens of thousands of gold soldiers? What's more, he has to complete Zhu Ming's task.

Before the Jin soldiers approached Caihe, Zhang Guangdao retreated again. He had a large number of ships and horses, donkeys and mules, and he withdrew quickly with his baggage, making a posture of panic and fleeing for his life.

After Guo Yaoshi crossed the Cai River, he became a pioneer to challenge, but when he saw that the enemy camp was empty, he was immediately overjoyed: "The Song soldiers are really cowardly, and they fled without a fight, and the sons and daughters will kill the enemy with me!" ”

There is really no vigilance at all, because from Yanjing to the Yellow River, the Song soldiers along the way either defend to the death, or directly surrender the city, and the Dingzhou defenders dare to go out of the city to lure the enemy.

There is a fire burning in Guo Yaoshi's heart, as long as he defeats the Song army in front of him, he will be able to make meritorious contributions and gain the trust of the second prince!

Guo Yaoshi now has 3,000 cavalry, half of which are his descendants, and the other half are light cavalry of other victorious armies. As for the remaining Liaodong elites, they still let his son Guo Anguo take the lead, and Wanyan Zongwang didn't dare to hand it over to Guo Yaoshi at all.

The cavalry of the 3,000 Changsheng Army chased out for several miles, and Deng Chun suddenly led 3,000 light cavalry to meet them.

"Where's the mule?" Pharmacist Guo was dismissive.

Because of Deng Chun's three thousand light horses, the war horse is too short, although the best of the best, but after all, it is a southwest horse.

In Guo Yaoshi's eyes, it was not a war horse at all, but a mule like a horse.

Can this kind of mule cavalry fight?

The cavalry of the victorious army rushed forward in several groups, and after shooting an arrow halfway, they began to charge at an accelerated pace, wanting to rely on the tall horses to fight directly in close combat.

The Han and Qiang mixed cavalry under Deng Chun were shooting and walking.

Although their horses were shorter, their tactical movements were more standard, the teams were uniform, and the orders were conveyed, and the junior officers responded extremely quickly.

It's more than twenty miles from the city of Tokyo, and the woods haven't been completely cut down.

Deng Chun, with the light cavalry, retreated with alternate shots, leading Guo Yaoshi to a small forest.

Such a dangerous signal, as a general, Pharmacist Guo should be vigilant and stop the pursuit. But first, Song Bing's cowardice left a deep impression on him, and secondly, he was eager to make meritorious contributions and gain the appreciation of Wanyan Zongwang, so he led his troops to chase him frantically.

In the woods, Hu Cong had already helped put on the heavy armor.

The mounted cavalry under Chen Ziyi has now increased to more than 280 cavalry. In addition to the war horses bought from the northwest, there are also war horses collected from the people, and the folk horses are all offered by wealthy families.

As long as you donate a horse that can carry the equipment, you can send the children of the clan to Zhu Guoxiang as students!

In addition to the mounted cavalry, Chen Ziyi also had more than 1,000 Hebei cavalry.

Deng Chun approached the grove with a light horse, and suddenly let the trumpeter blow the horn, and the three thousand light horsemen simply folded neatly, and swept outside the grove in two.

"Kill the thief!"

"Woo woo woo ~ ~~~"

The horn sounded in the woods made Guo Yaoshi frightened, and he subconsciously pulled the reins to slow down the horse's speed.

But how can the cavalry in high-speed pursuit easily stop?

I saw more than 280 cavalrymen, slaughtered from the small woods, all wearing heavy armor.

There were also more than 1,000 Hebei cavalry on both sides to help the mounted cavalry try to disrupt the enemy's formation.

Pharmacist Guo's pupils shrank when he saw it, and shouted, "Retreat!" ”

There was no need for him to remind him, the cavalry under his command was all slowing down, intending to turn around and retreat.

They couldn't sweep to the sides and retreat, because Deng Chun's light cavalry was gradually stopping, and was turning around to cooperate with the mounted cavalry to attack on three sides.

"Boom!"

More than 280 mounted cavalry, faster and faster, were already running and charging.

Three thousand southwestern light cavalry, turning back on both sides to shoot arrows.

Guo Yaoshi's headquarters could still maintain morale, but the other cavalry were frightened.

Seeing that these enemy horses were about to run, Deng Chun shouted: "Blow the trumpet, stop!" ”

The three thousand southwestern light cavalry stopped shooting arrows and charged towards the diagonal front in close combat, trying to leave Guo Yaoshi's troops behind.

These light cavalry under Deng Chun are chain mail plus cloth armor, and their anti-arrow ability is directly full, and their melee defense is not bad.

Deng Chun's own war horse was the original match of the cornucopia, a tall and divine horse - Zhang Guangdao temporarily lent it to him.

This guy threw out several horses under his command and rushed in almost single-handedly. His strength was terrifying, and he smashed the enemy rider with a swing. The second enemy horse stabbed with a spear, Deng Chun swung his left mace to strike away, and the clamping horse accelerated and smashed out with his right mace, directly smashing the enemy's arm.

Yang Yun, a young general of the Qiang nationality, riding a southwestern horse, had also stabbed a person with a spear. Although his horse is from southwest Sichuan, his shoulder height reaches one meter three, and he is already very good in Sichuan.

This kind of ambush, surprise attack and three-sided flanking attack, the front is still equipped cavalry charge, I am afraid that Tiefutu will have to drink a pot when encountered.

The other cavalry under Guo Yaoshi had completely lost the heart of resistance, and they could escape as fast as they could, and they didn't dare to stop fighting at all—they no longer listened to Guo Yaoshi's command.

The cavalry of the headquarters was quite obedient, and Guo Yaoshi escaped death countless times, quickly found a breakthrough, and led the cavalry to rush towards Yu Dian's department.

Yu Dian was born as a general of the Lizhou Xiang Army, and his martial arts and command ability were not weak, but it was still not enough to meet Guo Yaoshi and his own soldiers. With just one face, Yu Dian was almost killed by Guo Yaoshi, and more than a dozen cavalrymen around him were killed or wounded.

At this moment, Chen Ziyi's mounted cavalry finally rushed into the battlefield.

The cavalry of the Changsheng army was stopped by the light cavalry of the southwest, and the speed of the horse had dropped a lot, and the rear row was attacked by the mounted cavalry at full speed.

In the face of these heavily armored guys, the cavalry of the Changsheng Army had no power to resist, and the living people could only accelerate and urge their horses to flee for their lives.

The ambush battle soon turned into a pursuit battle, and Guo Yaoshi led five or six hundred horsemen and staggered with Yu Dian's cavalry. Yu Dian killed and injured more than 200 people, and Guo Yaoshi also killed and injured more than 100 people, and then Guo Yaoshi fled non-stop.

Chen Ziyi and Deng Chun cooperated to divide, encircle, and strangle, and killed all the enemy cavalry who refused to surrender. The heavy cavalrymen also rode inferior horses and rushed out of the grove to receive the captives who surrendered, as well as to clean up the battlefield and guard the captured horses.

Then, Chen and Deng led the ranks to chase and kill, and chased for several miles before leading the army back - and then they met the elite of the Jin soldiers.

Guo Yaoshi fled back in embarrassment, and he went out with three thousand cavalry, and now there are less than eight hundred left.

Wanyan Zongwang looked at the remnants in front of him, and always felt that something was wrong.
