In desperation, Wanyan Zongfu ordered a retreat, trying to get out of the current predicament, and after regathering morale, he took Puzhou City in one fell swoop.

Defeat is like a mountain! After the order to retreat was issued, the Jin cavalry was okay and maintained the overall retreat formation, but the infantry cavalry led by Liu Lin was too bad!

What grain and grass, what siege equipment, what weapons, everything that can be discarded is abandoned, and even if they retreat, they are scattered all over the mountains and wilderness.

After more than 20,000 men and horses led by Yue Fei defeated the opponent's forward battalion, he led the army to attack the enemy's camp, according to his arrangement, he planned to use the cavalry to use the speed advantage to outflank the two wings, and the fire gun army broke through in front, and the infantry followed behind to cover the kill.

But when Yue Fei's army arrived at the enemy's camp, he found that the camp was empty, and only a few hundred old, weak, sick and disabled soldiers who had fled slowly were captured.

Yue Fei, who looked at the discarded one, was stunned......

What made them so frightened and retreated in embarrassment after losing so many military supplies? Was it those explosions? What was going on with those explosions? Could it be that the county lord did it?

"General, are we going to continue to pursue the enemy with victory?"

Yue Fei waved his hand, "Go back to the city!" ”

Bi Jin asked with some puzzlement, "Now that the enemy army has been defeated, our army should take advantage of the victory to pursue!" A sentence to defeat them. ”

"Poor Kou Mo chase, everything is based on defending the city as the main task!"

Yue Fei's guess was almost correct, the night harassment against Wanyan Zongfu's army in the past two days was all done by someone she assigned.

She knew very well about the battle situation on the East Road that it was very difficult to rely on Yue Fei's more than 20,000 troops to defend Puzhou City, and even if she won, it would be a miserable victory! In case the city is broken, Yue Fei's end will be death in battle!

She didn't want Yue Fei to have any accidents, so she assigned Wen Boyuan, the very clever scout team leader in her private army, to follow Yue Fei's army to Puzhou with two of his subordinates, and found a hidden place outside Puzhou City to wait for the arrival of the enemy army.

Wen Boyuan followed Zhao Yingluo's instructions and brought twenty clay bombs, each pottery ball slightly larger than a palm and weighing about ten catties, and the clay pot was tied with ropes.

According to Zhao Yingluo's instructions, after the enemy troops were resting, they lit the fuse of the pottery bomb and smashed it into the enemy camp with the help of a portable trebuchet.

As for evading the enemy's search, Wen Boyuan had a clever trick, as long as the pottery bomb was dropped, the three of them quickly climbed the nearby big tree to dodge, so even if the scouts sent by Yan Zongfu passed under the big tree where they lived, they didn't find their traces.

The pottery bomb attack for two consecutive nights greatly affected the combat strength of Wanyan Zongfu's army! After completing the task, Wen Boyuan took his men back to Kaifeng on the morning of the second day.

Wanyan Zongfu and Liu Lin fled to a place fifty miles away with the remnants of their soldiers, and the attack for two consecutive nights made Wanyan Zongfu and Liu Lin already exhausted, distraught, and without fighting spirit.

Liu Lin said with a sad face, "General, what should we do?" ”

After collecting the army, the 100,000 army had lost more than 30,000 people without a battle, and the vast majority of them were still Liu Lin's men, which made his heart extremely anxious and afraid!

He was a little afraid of Zhao Yingluo, afraid that she would have some unexpected means.

Wanyan Zongsuke had a dark face, "What are you afraid of!" Isn't it the loss of 30,000 horses? Those who are greedy for life and afraid of death have fled, even if they don't flee now, the official war will not have the slightest combat power, and it will affect the morale of the army! Rest for the night today, and attack the city early tomorrow morning! ”

"General, that Zhao Yingluo is scheming, you must guard against it."

"She's only going to attack at night, and now we're ordering the scouts to take extra precautions at night, so she doesn't have any chance to do it!"

After seeing Yan Zongfu so confident, Liu Lin felt a little relieved......

"Pass the order, let the infantry be the rear, block the enemy's attack, and the cavalry defend the two flanks! Descend in a defensive formation! ”

After the Chinese military tent was set up, Wanyan Zongfu was finally able to sleep peacefully before dawn came, and this sleep came to the afternoon of the second day.

After a day and a night of rest, Wanyan Zongfu's army recovered its vitality, more than 70,000 men and horses set up a formation, trebuchets, door-ramming logs, bamboo ladders and other siege objects are very complete, the siege battle is about to officially begin, but to their surprise, the siege war has evolved into a counterattack!

Yue Fei only led a few hundred iron horsemen out of the city to face the battle.

Seeing this, Wanyan Zongfu couldn't help laughing, "Fighting against my tens of thousands of cavalry with hundreds of cavalry is simply looking for death!" Today, I want to take Puzhou City and kill Yue Fei in one go! ”

Wanyan Zongfu waved the command flag and signaled the whole army to attack. Inside the city gate, hundreds of iron cavalry led by Yue Fei also rushed out of the city to meet the enemy.

Yue Fei knew in his heart that fighting thousands of golden soldiers with a mere few hundred cavalry was tantamount to hitting a stone with an egg. But his purpose was to attract the enemy's attention, cover the sneak attack army from the east and west gates, and buy time for the defense of Puzhou City. He not only wanted to let Wanyan Zongfu know how powerful he was, but also let him understand that it was not easy to capture Puzhou City.

When the golden soldiers saw the iron cavalry led by Yue Fei rushing over, they all brandished their long knives and rushed forward with shouts. They planned to scatter this cavalry in one fell swoop, and then cover the past and take Puzhou City directly.

However, Yue Fei's iron horse was not an easy one. Under the leadership of Yue Fei, not only were they not scattered, but they became more and more courageous, blocking tens of thousands of enemy troops under the city gate.

After a long time of attacking the city of Puzhou, Wanyan Zongfu walked around nervously in the Zhongjun tent, if it continued like this, Hugh said that the city would be broken, and the outcome was not yet known.

Liu Lin, who was in command, saw that the corpses of his own army outside Puzhou City were about to pile up into a hill, and his flesh hurt to the extreme! Siege battles depend.

Wanyan Zongfu was furious when he saw this, he didn't expect Yue Fei to dare to use hundreds of cavalry against his army. He immediately ordered the cavalry on the left and right flanks to attack with all their might, and it was necessary to besiege Yue Fei in the center and capture and kill him in one fell swoop.

However, at this moment, Yue Fei's army also moved! The Iron Cavalry and Fire Gun Corps that were lying in ambush outside the city quickly appeared, a situation that was completely unexpected by Wanyan Sosuke.

He looked up into the distance, and saw that both cavalry and firecrackers quickly appeared in people's field of vision.

Wanyan Zongfu was shocked when he saw this, he didn't expect that the defenders of Puzhou City still had this hand. He had thought that he could easily take the small city, but now it seemed that it was much more difficult to attack than he had imagined.

At this moment, the iron cavalry led by Yue Fei also showed their strength. They rushed back and forth outside the city and beat the Jin soldiers to pieces. The defenders at the head of the city were constantly dropping fireballs and rolling wood and stones to provide support for the iron cavalry outside the city.

The battle continued into the evening. Sosuke Wanyan finally recognized the reality: he couldn't take this small city.
