Chapter 169: The Chivalrous Division

"Lord, look, what is that. Suddenly, a military general pointed to the distance and said.

I saw that on the horizon in the distance, a round of sunset was slowly setting, and the blood-red sunset on the horizon was like a dancing veil, paving the earth with a golden yellow.

Zoronga looked up, only to see the horizon shaking. He thought he was dazzled, and he took a closer look.

No, it's not a shaking horizon, it's the smoke and dust of thousands of galloping horses. At this time, at this place, a large number of cavalry appeared, except for reinforcements from the Southern Han Dynasty, there was no other possibility.

But Suo Longga couldn't figure it out, it was clear that it was impossible for several large battalions in the Southern Han Dynasty to send reinforcements in one day, where did this team come out of thin air.

The earth was shaking, and the roaring hooves of horses resounded through the sky, which could not be left to him.

It is true that this team is not a reinforcement for the border army battalion. Their costumes were varied, some wore the clothes of the officials and soldiers, some wore the clothes of the common people, and some were even bareheaded monks.

How could such a motley army with different identities suddenly appear on the battlefield?

Three hours ago. Fuzhou City.

A group of men approached the gates, and they galloped as if there was something urgent. When they reached the gate, they were stopped by the soldiers who defended the city.

"Who is coming, don't you know the rules for entering the city and dismounting?" asked the sergeant.

"I'm sorry, this military master, we do have 100,000 urgent things to enter the city, and we forgot the rules for a while, so please make it convenient. One of the people in the team stepped forward on horseback, clasped his hands into fists, and said very politely, the person who spoke was Yu Zhong.

"If everyone says they are in a hurry, do I have to let everyone go. The sergeant replied forcefully.

Seeing a group of people arguing here, an officer with a head and head came over. When he saw Ran Yi in the team, he turned around and gave the sergeant a slap in the face.

"Bastard, you don't know Tarzan with eyes. He said, and then gave a big salute and said to Ran Yi: "My subordinates once served as a cavalry captain under General Ran's system, and I have seen the eldest lady, please invite the eldest lady into the city." ”

It turned out that the sergeant who spoke was once a subordinate of Ran Yi's father.

As soon as everyone entered the city, Gui Ming saw an acquaintance on the street.

"Brother Shi Yan, why are you here!" Gui Ming was a little surprised, and hurriedly dismounted to greet him.

Shi Yan bowed in return, and there were many monks and warriors standing behind him.

It turned out that on the way back to his hometown, he heard the mobilization of the army of the Nanwang in Beining Town, and he expected that there must be a big move. After inquiring around, Fang learned that the army was moving in the direction of Fuzhou in the Southern Han Dynasty.

His home is in Bac Ninh, which is actually the homeland of the Southern Han Dynasty, and he has always cherished the heart of serving the country. Although he didn't know what the purpose of the Beining army was, it must have been unfavorable to the Southern Han.

So as a lay disciple of Longhu Temple, he gathered his fellow disciples and brothers who were active nearby. But he never thought that not long after he arrived in Fuzhou, he saw Guiming rushing into the city in a hurry.

"Great, Brother Shi, how many people have you brought. Gui Ming asked.

"Because of the suddenness of the incident, this time only fifty high-ranking warrior monks and more than 300 lay disciples in the temple were brought in, all of whom were experts. Shi Yan replied.

Longhu Temple is worthy of being the largest temple in the Southern Han Kingdom, and it is rare for Shi Yan to gather so many people in such a hurry.

The most important thing at the moment is to know the position of the crown prince and his safety. Everyone immediately divided their troops into two ways, Yu Zhong and Ran Yi went to the Fuzhou Mansion, and Gui Ming and Shi Yan went to join the people of Longhu Temple.

However, they did not see Lord Zhizhou in the palace, and after inquiring, they learned that the prince took the civil and military officials of Fuzhou to Yangshan early in the morning to pay tribute to the heroic spirit.

Hearing the place name of Yangshan, Ran Yi couldn't help but feel nostalgic for his life experience and remembered his father.

"Although Yangshan is some distance from Fuzhou City, according to the itinerary, it should have come back at this time, unless something happened. Ran Yi said.

"The transfer of the Beining army that Shi Yan just mentioned must be related to the prince, and in the worst case, I am afraid that the prince has been surrounded by the Beining army near Yangshan. Yu Zhong said worriedly.

However, now that the military situation is unknown, and the civil and military officials of Fuzhou City are not there, it is obviously unrealistic to transfer the officers and troops.

"I think I can help with the transfer of officers and troops. Ran Yi said.

The people she brought with her on this trip were all generals and officers who followed her father to fight on the battlefield back then, and they still had some face in the army. If they do the work, it can be of some use.

It's just that it still needs to be determined what the situation of the prince is, otherwise there is no purpose.

Yu Zhong suddenly had a flash of inspiration, inquiring about such a thing, who else could be better than the gangs in the rivers and lakes.

"Miss Ran, you go and contact Ling Zun's old subordinates first, and I'll inquire about the prince's news. After Yu Zhong finished speaking, he went straight to the branch of the Red Gang in Fuzhou City.

You must know that Yu Zhong and the old gang leader of the Red Gang, Lin Hui, can be said to have a great friendship. It's no secret to the Red Gang. When he revealed his identity, he was also warmly entertained.

The disciples of the Red Gang are all over the country, and even there are branches in Bac Ninh, and the daily news is transmitted through flying pigeons, and even without leaving home, you can know about the world's major events.

Yu Zhong immediately knew that the prince was now trapped on Yangshan, and there were 20,000 Beining iron horsemen under the mountain, and they were in a fierce battle. The border troops of each battalion were leaderless, and there were traitors who caused trouble and the enemy attacked and harassed, so it was impossible to send troops to rescue for a while.

Judging from the time, the prince has been fighting fiercely in Yangshan for half a day, and he only has thousands of forbidden army guards brought from the capital around him, and he can't help but feel anxious when he thinks of this.

But he knew that the more times like this, the more calm he had to be. Yu Zhong calmed down and thought about a way, but now he could only mobilize all the power he could think of.

If you want to quickly gallop to the Yangshan battlefield, horses are indispensable. Most of the military horses are in the camp of the border army, and there are probably not many of them in Fuzhou City, but if you can find the horse gang, you must be able to solve the temporary need.

Then there is the problem of manpower, although the Red Gang has many disciples, but after all, it is facing tens of thousands of Beining Iron Horsemen, and I am afraid that we still need to find more manpower.

If there is any gang in the rivers and lakes that responds to the needs of Yu Zhong and has many disciples, it is naturally the Salt Gang.

It only took Yu Zhong half an hour to gather the Red Gang, the Ma Gang, and the Salt Gang. People in the rivers and lakes all pay attention to a righteous word. Not to mention that Yu Zhong has kindness to the three gangs, even if they are at the end of the national disaster, they are absolutely duty-bound.

An hour after arriving in Fuzhou City. Yu Chong, Guiming, and Ran Yi gathered again outside the city.

Yu Zhong brought three gangs of 2,000 men. Ran Yi, through his father's subordinates, gathered more than 3,000 officers and troops and 500 military horses in the city.

What was surprising was that Guiming not only brought hundreds of disciples from the Dragon and Tiger Temple, but also used the second prince's golden medal arrow to bring the three thousand tiger elite horsemen stationed outside Fuzhou City.

In this way, they were actually put together and put together a reinforcement of nearly 10,000 horses.

"There is not much time left for us, and the defenders on Yangshan may find it difficult to hold out until dark, so we have to set off quickly. Yu Zhong looked up at the sun and said.

"The people around the prince are all elites of the forbidden army, and it is not so easy for the people of Beining to succeed, so many of us, waiting for work, will definitely be able to relieve the siege of Yangshan. "Guiming is full of confidence.

"Two sons, let's set off immediately, we should be able to reach Yangshan before evening. Ran Yi said.

Under the leadership of the three people, the team quickly drove and went straight to Yangshan. After two hours of rapid marching, the army that appeared in front of Saurunga was this improvised chivalrous army.

At this time, Saurunga had sent almost all of his troops to attack the mountain, leaving only a thousand cavalry around to guard the king's banner. Seeing that tens of thousands of Southern Han reinforcements suddenly appeared in front of him, he was also a little flustered, and hurriedly ordered the mountain siege troops to come back to help.

The battle on the Yangshan Walled City was very fierce, and the Southern Han army suffered heavy casualties, and it was about to be unable to support it.

"Zhongqing's family, it seems that today is the death of the heavens, and it is the honor of this prince to be sacrificed on the battlefield. Ji Yubing also knew at this time that they couldn't last long.

The civil officials in the warehouse whimpered, but none of them wanted to surrender, and at such a time, even the integrity of a weak scholar might not be lost to the generals.

Suddenly, the shouts of killing outside gradually weakened, and it seemed that the enemy's offensive was beginning to weaken.

Although I don't know what the reason is, the situation on the battlefield is changing rapidly, and the fighter plane is fleeting. Ji Yubing knew this well, and knew that there should be an accident at the foot of the mountain, so he immediately sent someone to investigate.

"Report, His Royal Highness the Prince, reinforcements from our army have appeared at the foot of the mountain, and the people of Bac Ninh are retreating down the mountain. The sergeant replied.

"Great, Qing Shao, immediately gather the men and horses, condescendingly kill down the mountain, and join forces with the reinforcements, and beat this group of dog-day Beining people to the prince. In addition to being excited, Ji Yubing even scolded people.

Seeing the arrival of reinforcements, the morale of the defenders on Yangshan was greatly boosted, and they completely forgot about the pain, and the sound of killing shook the sky. The originally dominant Bac Ninh people lost their armor and were defeated and fell into the mountains.

"Lord Wang, withdraw, we have lost too much today, and now that the Southern Han reinforcements have arrived, it is impossible to eat the Southern Han prince on Yangshan. The generals beside Saurunga persuaded.

He saw that victory was in sight, and he would be willing to lose. It's just that he has led the troops for many years, and he knows that if he doesn't withdraw at this time, I'm afraid that the 20,000 Beining iron cavalry he brought will be wiped out here in Yangshan today.

"Bastard, withdraw troops. Sooner or later, I will avenge today's vengeance. Solunga gritted his teeth and gave the order to withdraw.

Who would have thought that the 20,000 iron cavalry of Bac Ninh fought fiercely for one day, and more than half of them were lost, and the undefeated golden body of Sauron, the king of Zhennan, was actually broken here in Yangshan.
