…

At this time, the weather in late autumn and early winter is easy to wear and the war horse is easy to get fat. The soldiers have not been in battle for a long time, and they all have the heart to fight; Each has a grudge against each other, and wants to take revenge. Sent by the Emperor, he rejoiced, packed up his guns and knives, tied his saddle horses, sharpened his fists, and went down the mountain at all times.

Jiang Hongfei ordered the Qi Guards Army, the First Infantry Army, the Second Infantry Army, the Sixth Infantry Army, the First Ma Army, the Second Ma Army, the Third Ma Army, the Fourth Ma Army, the Ma Seventh Army, the Ma Eighth Army, and the Tiefutu and Beiwei Armies (Du Wei served as the leader and Yu Tai served as the deputy leader) totaled 22,000 troops, including 11,500 regular troops and 9,500 auxiliary troops.

——In the past two years, Jiang Hongfei has successively doubled the main force except for Tiefutu, making it a 1,000 regular army and a 1,000 auxiliary army.

In addition, at this time, in the city of the Daimyo's Mansion, there were 1,000 infantry Fourth Army regular army, 1,000 foot Seventh Army regular army, and 100 newspaper confidential special battalions.

Jiang Hongfei only left the naval army, the amphibious army (with Ou Peng as the leader) and the garrison army to guard the house.

It is worth mentioning that Jiang Hongfei was worried that someone would steal his hometown during his attack on the Daimyo Mansion in Beijing, so he suspended Qingzhou's work on Tianxingdao and transferred Xiao Jiasui, who was both civil and military, from Qingzhou back to oversee the defense of Shuibo Liangshan.

It is not difficult to see from the troop movement that Shuibo Liangshan almost came out of the nest this time.

There is no way, against one of the four capitals of the Zhao and Song Dynasty, Jiang Hongfei must go all out to deal with it.

Before the army set off, Jiang Hongfei received information:

Liang Zhongshu summoned Wen Da and Li Cheng to tell the headless notice of Shuibo Liangshan and what Wang Taishou said.

After hearing this, Li Cheng said:

"Measure this group of grass coquettes, how can they be willing to leave the nest without permission, why should the minister have to work hard. Li Mou is not talented, he has a lot of food, and he has no merit to repay his virtue, so he is willing to work hard for dogs and horses, lead the army and soldiers, and leave the city and go down to the village. If you don't come, don't discuss. If that gang of grass cowards is exhausted, leaving the nest without permission, and leading the crowd to come, it is not a young general who boasts, and he will order this thief not to return. Report the grace of the country, stretch out the ambition that you have learned in your life, and do not hesitate. ”

Liang Zhongshu was overjoyed when he heard this, and ordered someone to take spirit stones and spiritual weapons, and reward Lao Wenda and Li Cheng.

It is said that Li Cheng returned to the camp to rest, and the next day he raised his tent and called the officers and soldiers to go to the tent to listen to the order.

Li Cheng sent an order to Suo Chao: "Jiang Yan Caokou, sooner or later, he will come to the city and come to fight Beijing." You can order the soldiers of the headquarters and go down to the village thirty-five miles away from the city. Then I came with a large army. ”

Suo Chao got the general's order, pointed up the troops of the headquarters, and went to the thirty-five miles of the place name Feihuyu, and went down the fence against the mountain.

Another day, Li Cheng led the generals, twenty-five miles away from the city, the place name Huaishu Slope, and went down the fence.

The officers and soldiers were densely covered with guns and knives, hidden antlers in all directions, digging pits on three sides, the armies were grinding their fists, and the generals worked together, just waiting for the arrival of the Liangshan army to make contributions.

Besides, when Jiang Hongfei personally led the Liangshan army to a place about twenty or thirty miles away from Feihuyu, Jiang Hongfei listened to Sun Jing and Liu Huiniang's suggestions, ordered to set up camp, and discussed tomorrow's countermeasures to meet the enemy.

Sun Jing said: "That Li Cheng is quite anxious, reckless and impulsive, and extremely conceited, I expect him to strike first." ”

Liu Huiniang heard the words and said: "Shame, this battle is easy to fight, the slave family has a plan here......

However, it was said that Suo Chao was sitting in Feihuyu Village, and he heard the Malay newspaper that Jiang Hongfei personally led tens of thousands of troops to arrive.

Suo Chao immediately sent someone to report the matter to Li Cheng, who was sitting in Huaishupo Village.

Li Cheng reported that on the one hand, he sent someone to inform Liang Zhongshu in the city of the Daimyo's mansion to make preparations early, and on the other hand, he personally led the army to Feihuyu Qianzhai to prepare to command the battle.

The next day, after breakfast, both sides went to Yujiatuan and lined up in formation.

The Liangshan army put out a sparse formation, and Shi Gugong used the trick of spraying clouds and forcing fog in the formation, so that the Song army could not see the reality of the Liangshan army.

On the Song army, Li Cheng personally commanded 15,000 men and horses, with cavalry in front and infantry in the rear.

Li Cheng and Suo Chao were all draped, and the horses were strangled under the door flag, and when Pingdong looked at it, he saw dust in the distance, and about 500 people and horses rushed forward.

Li Cheng whipped the tip of the whip, and the military Jian stepped on the hard crossbow and pulled the strong bow in his hand.

As for the Liangshan army, they formed a formation in Yujiatuan. Saw:

The first to ride is a female general, born very standard.

Yuxue skin, hibiscus appearance, with natural standards. The golden armor is brilliant, and the scales are moving, and the silver seeps red and wipes the forehead. The jade hand is slender, the double wielding blade, and the hero Xuanhe. The eyes are slippery, and thousands of enchanting can be picked. At present, the frost blade is like the wind, and the officers and soldiers must be beheaded. The dust is flying, the robe is sweaty, and the chest and armpits are murderous. The warrior dies the soul, the enemy loses fear, and the female general is peculiar in the middle. Returning victorious, with a faint smile on his cheeks.

It is Jiang Hongfei's concubine Hu Sanniang.

Li Cheng looked at it, smiled and said to the left and right: "There is no one in Liangshan, what is the use of sending a woman to take the lead?" Who will take her down with me? ”

When Suo Chao heard this, he was going to go out to fight.

A member of the general after Suo Chaoma said: "Kill chickens with a knife, and the young general will capture this thief woman for the king!" ”

The person who spoke was surnamed Wang Mingding, and he held a spear in his hand, leading his subordinates to 300 horse troops, and rushed towards Hu Sanniang.

In the battle situation of five to three, what is there to fear about the already belligerent Hu Sanniang? She immediately turned two swords of the sun and the moon, and led five hundred men and horses to rush forward.

Wang Ding shouted, suddenly rode forward, raised his gun and went out to meet the enemy Hu Sanniang.

The two armies shouted at the same time, and in an instant, the two sides fought against each other.

Not to mention that Hu Sanniang led Jiang Hongfei's personal guard army, which was the ceiling of combat power in the Liangshan army, and at this time, he relied on the large number of people to slaughter the three hundred men and horses led by Wang Ding.

only said that Hu Sanniang and Wang Ding had only fought for less than ten rounds, and Suo Chao could see that Wang Ding was not Hu Sanniang's opponent.

Suo Chao did not hesitate, and led a thousand horse troops from his headquarters to rush straight past Yu Jiatuan.

Hu Sanniang saw it, and with a mandarin duck knife, Wang Dingxiao was beheaded, and then he stopped fighting, pulled out the horse and left.

Suo Chao chased for a while, and when he saw the fog in front of him, he was afraid of deception, so he stopped chasing and returned to the army.

Li Cheng asked, "Why don't you bring a thief woman?" ”

Suo Chao replied: "I rushed over the mountain, and I was about to take her, but there was a lot of fog there, and the last general was afraid that the thief woman would have someone to answer the horse, and the ambush soldiers would rise together, and it would be difficult to start." ”

Li Cheng said unhappily: "This kind of grass coward, why be afraid? ”

After finishing speaking, Li Cheng personally led all the horse troops and killed all the Yu family Tuan.

I saw the flag waving and shouting in front, beating drums and gongs, and Hu Sanniang reappeared.

Li Cheng fixed his eyes and saw that there was a golden book banner in Hu Sanniang's army, which read: The female general is a young man!

Li Cheng felt that this was a mockery of him, and immediately ordered Suo Chao: "Suo Chao and I will go forward to meet the enemy, catch this woman and return, I will divide my troops to strangle the four grass coles, and help you win this battle." ”

Suo Chao received the general's order, dipped the axe in gold, sat down and dismounted, led a thousand cavalry from the headquarters, and rushed towards Hu Sanniang.

Seeing this, Hu Sanniang turned around, looked at the recess of the mountain and left.

Li Chengqin led 3,000 cavalry to encircle the people and horses of Hu Sanniang's department, and drove Hu Sanniang's department to kill Hu Sanniang with pincers.

Li Cheng and Suo Chao chased to the ground, only to see that the fog covered the sky here, and Hu Sanniang rushed in without hesitation.

Suo Chao saw it, stopped, and then when Li Cheng caught up, he suggested: "This fog is strange, the king of heaven has the right to collect troops, and I will fight him again in the next day." ”

Who thought, Li Cheng didn't listen and ordered the pursuit.

Four thousand men and horses obeyed the order, and all of them rushed into the fog with Hu Sanniang's department.

But rushing to rush, Li Chengcheng felt that something was wrong.

Although it was difficult to see clearly due to heavy fog, Li Cheng also felt that the terrain here seemed to be getting narrower and narrower, and the situation was a little bad because of the heavy gloomy atmosphere here.

Li Chenggang wanted to order the withdrawal of the army, but it was too late.

At this time, I only heard the sound of "rumbling rumbling" in the distance from the sound of a large number of war horses running!

Immediately afterwards, a strange wind blew in the face, which blew away the fog and made Li Cheng and the other officers and soldiers unable to even open their eyes.

In a blur, Li Cheng only saw that there was dust in the distance!

And the earth shook!

There are no war drums, but this power is more terrifying than the war drums, and the rumbling sound is like thousands of thunders erupting together!

Immediately, Li Chengcheng heard Suo Chao shouting: "Heavenly King, withdraw the army quickly, it is the heavy cavalry with armor, and we are in ambush!" ”

At this time, Li Cheng also saw that there were five hundred heavy cavalry armed to the teeth like iron towers rushing over, the first person, nine feet long and short, broad shoulders and round waist, and a big axe in his hand, like a demon god.

Seeing this, Li Cheng hurriedly ordered the horse's head to be turned and retreated.

But where is it too late at this time!

The Song army was taken by surprise, and thousands of military horses crowded into the narrow valley, scurrying from east to west and trampling on each other.

What is even more terrifying is that these 500 heavy cavalry are like a torrent of steel composed of 500 heavy tanks, and everywhere they pass, they are all crushed and destroyed.

Especially Bian Xiang, who took the lead, was refrigerated by Jiang Hongfei for three years, and this time he could finally show his might, only to see that he could cut down a large piece with an axe, and killed hundreds of Song army soldiers alone.

Li Cheng and Suo Chao hurriedly retreated, and finally rushed out of the valley!

But at this time, the two thousand divine arm archers who had been in ambush for a long time, under the command of Lu Zhishen and Liu Guang, shot arrows as quickly as they didn't need money.

Seeing that there was also an ambush at the mouth of the valley, Li Cheng complained bitterly: "I didn't even fight with the thieves, and my three or four thousand elite riders lost seventy-seven eighty-eight, how should I go back and talk to each other?" ”

What Li Cheng didn't expect was that he, who was originally protected by heavy soldiers, was blocked by at least hundreds of arrows at the moment when he emerged from the valley mouth.

The incident happened suddenly, and the arrows were inhibitable, so Li Cheng could only use the aura shield and rely on the treasure armor on his body to resist.

But what Li Cheng never expected was that among these arrows, there were three sharp arrows with electric arcs!

Only three sounds of "poof", "poof" and "poof" were heard, and Li Chengcheng was shot off his horse in response.

Suo Chao braved the rain of arrows to save Li Cheng.

But before Suo Chao could make a move, the two Liangshan horse armies came out of the oblique stab.

One of them, the first general, is nine feet tall, with a snake spear in his hand, like a demon god, it is Du Yan, the leader of the Beiwei army!

The other one, the first general, is eight feet five or six tall, holding a wind splitting knife and a meteor hammer, and it is Shi Bao, the leader of the Seventh Army!

As soon as these two Liangshan horse armies appeared, they quickly reaped the lives of the Song cavalry who were lucky enough to rush out of the rain of arrows.

Seeing this, Suo Chao didn't dare to fight, so he could only give up Li Cheng and retreat to Yu Jiatuan, that is, to retreat to their more than 10,000 foot army.

Who thinks, this is in the hands of the Liangshan army.

The panicked Song army routed and fled to the Song army camp, disrupting the Song army's position.

This was something that Song Jun did not expect.

The key is that because Li Cheng was shot off his horse and did not know whether he was alive or dead, Suo Chao had no power to control the whole army, Wang Taishou, the commander-in-chief of the infantry army (and also the commander-in-chief of the whole army), was a newcomer and a civilian official, and he did not have prestige among the Song army in the Daimyo's mansion, so that the Song army at this time had no leader, fought separately, and lost unified command.

In this way, the Beiwei Army and Ma Qijun led by Du Bai and Shi Bao followed the defeated Song army and successfully passed through the firing area of the Song army's bow and crossbow and rushed straight to the front of the Song army's camp.

As a result, Liang and Song launched a fierce battle of hand-to-hand combat.

In one fell swoop, Du Yan no longer left his hands, and turned into a half-orc with nine lion heads, full of firepower, and the soldiers of the Beiwei Army under his command were selected from the elite of the Quanliangshan Army, and their strength was not weak, and they rushed into the Song Army, just like wolves entering the flock.

Shi Bao does not have such a great lethality as Du Bao, but unless he doesn't make a move, he will kill steadily and ruthlessly, and the soldiers of the Ma Seventh Army he trained himself are the same, all of them pay attention to killing with one hit.

The most important thing is that the Liangshan army is a horse army on its side, and the Song army is an infantry army on the side, and the combat power of the two sides is not equal at all.

Soon, under the strangulation of the Beiwei army and the Ma Qi army, the infantry of the Song army was killed in a chaotic formation.

It didn't take long for the Song army to resist the pressure and fled one after another.

Seeing this, Du Bao and Shi Bao killed even more fiercely.

This made the Song army spread for fourteen or fifteen miles, and it was divided into four parts, and it could not be taken care of from the beginning to the end.

Later, the Liangshan horse army that caught up with them was killed one by one.

Those who are smart, quickly put down their weapons, kneel and surrender, and can still pick up a life, otherwise it will be difficult to escape the pursuit of the Liangshan Horse Army......

Suo Chao saw that the Liangshan army was too powerful, rushed away, withdrew from Yujiatuan, and then took the road......

Song Jun's corpse was displayed for more than ten miles, wailing everywhere, which was unbearable to hear.

Post-war statistics:

In this battle, the Song army suffered at least 7,000 casualties and more than 6,000 prisoners.

The Liangshan army captured nearly 1,000 good horses, more than 2,000 wounded and dead horses, and countless armor.

And the casualties of the Liangshan army itself were only a little more than a hundred.

There is no doubt that the Liangshan army achieved an unprecedented victory.

Seeing such a result in the first battle, Jiang Hongfei couldn't help but secretly breathe a sigh of relief, and he said to the left and right: "The Daimyo Mansion is worry-free!" ”

Jiang Hongfei had already sent someone to investigate clearly, and there were more than 30,000 forbidden troops and box troops in the Daimyo Mansion, half of which were controlled by Li Cheng and half by Wenda.

In this battle, nearly half of the Daimyo's Mansion was wiped out, and Jiang Hongfei sent two infantry troops and a special battalion of newspaper secrets to prepare for the internal and external cooperation in the city of the Daimyo's Mansion, and the Daimyo's Mansion was indeed not to worry.

But on the basis of facts, to be able to achieve such a result, the Liangshan army took a lot of luck.

First of all, of course, Liu Huiniang's strategy worked.

Secondly, relying on the three mages of Gongsun Sheng, Wu Jiao, and Shi Gugong in the Liangshan army, the Liangshan army could hide troops and terrain and ambush the Song army while setting up suspicious formations.

Of course, the most important thing is that Li Cheng is too rash to attack the enemy.

Otherwise, if the Liangshan army had not been allowed to almost wipe out most of Li Chengbu's cavalry in a battle in the valley, and then used the horse army of the Liangshan army to bully the infantry of the Song army, this battle would not have been fought so smoothly.

To put it bluntly, it's a downwind battle without much difficulty.

But then again, this is the first real battle fought by Liang Shanjun (including Zhujiazhuang before, in fact, it was just a small fight), and Jiang Hongfei could wake up with a smile in his dreams to achieve such a result.

But then again, the Liangshan Army has never fought a big battle, and Sun Jing and Liu Huiniang, who can set the strategy, are both people who are familiar with military books and tactics and have strong command ability, and Du Bao, Shi Bao, and Bian Xiang, who fought this battle, are all commander-level talents, Lu Zhishen, Lin Chong, Tang Bin, Yang Zhi, and Sun Li are all regular officers, even those generals who are not commanders and officers also have something, so it is normal for the Liangshan Army to fight such results......
