Someone may betray Jin and surrender, this Zhu Ming has already guessed.

However, on the first night of the confrontation between the two armies, there were enemy generals who directly burned the camp to cause chaos, but it was completely beyond Zhu Ming's expectations.

Things were so outrageous that the Ming army didn't react immediately!

The shouts from three miles away were first heard by the Ming troops patrolling the river, and they immediately went to report the news. The more than 10,000 Ming troops who had camped closer were also awakened one after another, because they were already sleeping in armor and had always maintained a high degree of vigilance.

Zhang Xian and Chong Yanchong each led their troops out of the camp and came to the river to quickly line up, waiting for Zhu Ming to give specific orders.

Yang Yun, Li Shifu, Yang Zaixing and other cavalry generals led the main horses to the river.

Gu San rode his horse and galloped through the camp, urging the heavy infantry to hurry up and put on their armor.

Hua Rong led the musketeers to protect the periphery of Zhu Ming's camp.

On the inner level, Bai Sheng beckoned the guards to line up to protect Zhu Ming and the accompanying eunuchs and civil officials.

Zhu Ming had already put on the Heavenly King armor and was supported to step on the war horse, and rushed to the river despite everyone's dissuasion.

"Drumming! River! River! ”

Zhu Ming shouted loudly.

The rumbling drums soon sounded.

In fact, the generals had already made preparations for the river, but the whole army arrived in the afternoon, which was only enough time to set up camp. Although the minfu cut back a lot of wood, the craftsmen only had time to process the wood, and even the planks of the pontoon bridge did not start nailing.

The enemy generals who burned the camp and made chaos were in too much of a hurry to do things!

If it is launched a few days later, let Zhu Ming prepare to cross the river, it is estimated that the entire Jin army will be annihilated.

Of course, if Zhu Ming is ready to cross the river, Jin Bing may be so frightened that he will withdraw directly, and Liu Cao's gang may not have the opportunity to make trouble.

It can only be said that Liu Cao defected too unexpectedly, catching the generals on both sides off guard.

Seven thousand horsemen put their armor on their horses, and then quickly crossed the river with their horses around their necks. After going ashore, they helped each other put on their armor, and then they got on their horses and chased them out.

As for the infantry, they carried the wood and threw it into the water, lying on the wood and swimming quickly.

The Ming cavalry didn't run far before they found hundreds of golden horsemen rushing.

These are all the elite soldiers of Liu Cao, and when the Jin Kingdom was at its peak, the Liu family once had more than 10,000 soldiers (including the temporarily recruited militia). Therefore, Wanyan Zongwang occupied Youyan at the beginning, and Liu Cao's father was regarded as the second person in Youyan.

But under the successive defeats, there were too many dead and wounded and fled, and they moved back to Liaodong and were scattered and resettled, and Liu Cao only had hundreds of cavalry left in his hands - of course, there were miscellaneous soldiers, but they could not be brought out by the enemy at night.

"Long live the Ming Dynasty, we are here to surrender and submit! Don't fire your guns, we're here to surrender and submit! ”

"Long live the Ming Dynasty, we are here to surrender and submit! Don't fire your guns, we're here to surrender and submit! ”

Liu Cao ordered hundreds of cavalry to dismount and remove the threat to the Ming cavalry. Then he stood on the ground, brandishing torches and shouting loudly.

Seven thousand cavalry rode their horses and galloped, and they couldn't hear what was being said from the other side.

Liu Cao's dismount and waving torches can be regarded as the true message of surrender.

Yang Yun slowed down slightly, and shouted to the herald: "Let the general follow to kill the enemy!" ”

The herald immediately advanced at full speed, rushed to Liu Cao and shouted, "Keep up, kill the enemy!" ”

Liu Cao was overjoyed, turned around and ordered: "Sons, follow me to kill the golden dog and save our families!" ”

A few miles ahead, the mountains were full of routs.

It is a pity that although the population of the Jin country is insufficient, there are more than enough horses. Not only did they have their own horse farms, but they also ordered the steppe tribes to sacrifice horses, and the militia who had fought a little bit of a little war were temporarily assigned to inferior horses for driving.

When the Jin soldiers fled, their first reaction was to look for horses, and then fled regardless of military orders.

Most of those who are still running for their lives on two legs belong to the recruit eggs, as well as some unlucky ones who didn't find a horse.

Hearing the sound of horses' hooves approaching, the rout soldiers in front fled to both sides, giving way to the main road and surrendering to the Ming army.

The distance of several miles was quickly shortened, and Yang Zaixing led two thousand cavalry to cut down the routed soldiers who stood in the way like mowing grass, and soon he rushed into the canyon between the two hills.

The canyon is about seven or eight miles long, nearly two miles at its widest point, and only half a mile at its narrowest point.

Of course, the hills on both sides are not steep, and in some places you can run horses on the slopes.

"Woo woo woo ~ ~~"

Just as Yang Zaixing was about to rush out of the valley, a horn suddenly sounded in front of him.

The only remaining hundreds of Zha Meng'an of the Jinguo East Route Army rushed towards Yang Zaixing with more than 1,000 horsemen.

The cavalry of all ethnic groups all fled, and they couldn't be restrained at all, and Wanyan Zongfu could only lead the Jurchen elite in person and block them in the easiest place to ambush.

In fact, the Bohai cavalry did not finish running, Gao Biao led hundreds of horsemen, and was following Wanyan Zongfu to charge.

The hatred of exterminating the clan, the ruthlessness of taking his wife, he and the Ming army do not share the sky.

The black light was blind, and Yang Zaixing didn't realize the danger.

He was even a little excited, leading his army to accelerate the charge.

The two armies were getting closer and closer, and with the faint moonlight, Yang Zaixing finally understood the situation.

"Blow the trumpet and warn, and charge with me!"

It was too late to retreat, and they could only rush over at an accelerated pace.

Hezha Meng'an did not concentrate on charging, but formed a mixed squad to fight. Twenty heavy cavalry were in the middle, thirty cavalry were on the sides, and a team of fifty cavalry charged alternately.

At the moment of the battle, the Ming cavalry suffered more than 100 casualties.

Yang Zaixing pierced Tiefutu's armor with a single shot, but only made the opponent's body shake. He simply abandoned his spear, pulled out the iron shovel at his waist, and rushed towards the other Iron Floating Massacre with a wave of his arms.

The Iron Floating Tu spear stabbed Yang Zaixing easily dodged, and swept out with a slam of his waist.

"Poof!"

The Iron Float spat blood and flew back from his horse.

The sound of the horn before Yang Zaixing took over the battle shocked Yang Yun and Li Shifu.

Li Shifu said to the heralds: "I led my troops to abandon their horses and rush to kill, and went around the hillside to the enemy's right flank. You go and tell General Yang! ”

The herald turned around and galloped to inform Yang Yun, who was pressing the formation in the rear.

Yang Yun immediately understood what he meant, and led his troops around the left flank of the Jin soldiers from the hillside.

The slopes on both sides are relatively gentle, and most places can be used for horse running. But there were too many rubbles and stones, and the light was very dim, and the Ming cavalry stumbled and fell without paying attention.

At the moment when Li Shifu fell from the horse, he hurriedly pulled out the stirrups with his feet, and then took advantage of the situation to roll over and not fall and get hurt, then stood up and abandoned the gun and ran on the hillside.

The cavalry under Yang Zaixing had five or six hundred dead and wounded at this time.

But the more than ten teams of Jin cavalry that rushed to the front were entangled by more and more Ming cavalry. The speed of each other's horses slowed down, and they could no longer charge, so they could only move their horses in a small area to fight.

The follow-up golden cavalry rushed to meet them, but because the terrain was too narrow and there were too many cavalry in the canyon, the front cavalry of the two sides was completely mixed together.

"Withdraw and rush again! Alternate charges! ”

Although the cavalry of the Jin State achieved great results, Wanyan Zongfu was made restless.

The cavalry of the Ming army was not defeated by Hezha Meng'an, but entangled the Hezha Meng'an in front!

Yang Zaixing was also completely entangled, and the space around him for horses was very narrow. He fought bloodily while looking for enemy generals, but unfortunately the light was too dark to see.

Yang Zaixing couldn't find the enemy general, but an enemy general took the initiative to find him.

In another time and space, Gao Biao, one of the best fierce generals under the command of Jin Wushu, killed three Ming army horsemen one after another at this time, and finally rode his horse to the front of Yang Zaixing.

Gao Biao stabbed with a spear, and the momentum was fast and fierce.

Yang Zaixing avoided another enemy's weapon, but he was head-on and killed Gao Biao. He felt that he couldn't dodge Gao Biao's spear, so he subconsciously swung his iron mace and smashed it, blocking and avoiding it dangerously.

Gao Biao came back with his gun, and the war horse couldn't move, so he could only turn around on the spot, and another shot poked Yang Zaixing's back.

Yang Zaixing was stabbed in the waist, but fortunately there was armor to block it, and he was poked forward on the horse's back.

It was too late to turn the horse's head, and another Jin State cavalry also killed, Yang Zaixing turned over and dismounted, and smashed the leg of the golden horse.

This is a Hezha Meng'an, the horse's leg is broken, the war horse screams, and the tin can is thrown down hard.

Yang Zaixing snatched the spear from the opponent's hand, and at the same time rolled to dodge Gao Biao's spear pursuit. Then he half-squatted and poked at Gao Biao, who was still riding a horse, and when Gao Biao dodged, Yang Zaixing threw up his gun and pounced suddenly.

"Buzz ......"

The iron shovel even made a sound of breaking through the air and smashed the horse's leg.

Gao Biao even led the horse down, and at the moment he fell off the horse, he adjusted his body and rushed towards Yang Zaixing.

The two fierce generals just hugged each other and scuffled.

The two sides continued to be joined by follow-up cavalry, and they were completely unable to charge, so they could only stop and fight on horseback. From time to time, there were horses' hooves, stepping on the sides of the two, and they couldn't care much about it, they just wanted to kill each other with hand-to-hand combat as soon as possible.

Short weapons are useless, because they are already entangled.

At this moment, Li Shifu led the cavalry who abandoned their horses and came around from the hillside to join the battlefield.

The fierce man threw away his spear and rushed in with two knives in hand.

His knives were typical of Song hand knives, but they were thicker and heavier, and could be used as blunt weapons. The short body dodged the weapons of the Jin cavalry, and Li Shifu swung his knife to cut the horse's legs, which was almost as powerful as smashing with an iron rod.

In this way, the killing efficiency is faster than riding a horse.

The cavalry on both sides were entangled, and the golden cavalry could not avoid it at all. Li Shifu rushed in front to cut the horse's legs, and the infantry cavalry that followed immediately rushed up to encircle and kill the fallen enemy.

Even those Hezha Meng'an were cut off and fell off one after another, and then they were besieged and killed by more than two Ming troops.

The sturdy full-body heavy armor became a shackle after falling from the horse.

Often, one Ming soldier held it down, and the other Ming soldier tore open the neck and wiped his neck.

Or just use the iron bones and iron shovels to smash them on the head.

smashed into the face armor, and immediately the face bloomed.

Hitting the helmet is a concussion, to say the least.

On the other side, Yang Yun also led the cavalry and abandoned his horse to come to the battlefield from the hillside.

Seeing that he was unable to return to the sky, Wanyan Zongfu ordered: "Blow the trumpet and retreat!" ”

Yang Zaixing and Gao Biao were still rolling and fighting, both sides were infinitely powerful, and they were inseparable.

But in the end, Yang Zaixing was the better one, and he finally had the upper hand between the tumbling and scuffling. Gao Biao was lying on it, and Yang Zaixing was lying below, but Yang Zaixing's right arm strangled Gao Biao's neck fiercely.

Gao Biao's face was red because of suffocation, and he reached out to break Yang Zaixing's arm.

Yang Zaixing grabbed his right hand with his left hand, and his two arms worked together.

Gao Biao was so anxious that his legs kicked wildly, but his strength became smaller and smaller, and he was finally strangled to death by Yang Zaixing.

The clarion call for the retreat of the Jin soldiers has been sounded, but it is difficult for the entangled Jin heavy cavalry and Xiao cavalry to calmly withdraw from the battlefield.

In this battle, the Ming cavalry suffered heavy casualties.

But the only remaining Hezha Meng'an in Wanyan Zongfu's hand was folded in half - Wanyan Zonghan still had it in his hand.

What does Wanyan Zongfu rely on to deter the armies of all ethnic groups?

It's all about these elites!

Half of Hezha Meng'an is gone, and hundreds of Jurchen horses are still riding in, and Gao Biao, who is loyal to the Jin Kingdom, is also dead.

Those heroes of all ethnic groups who were already anti-minded, can they still be suppressed next?
