For thousands of years, the Qinghui royal family and the prince of the county fought dozens of times, when the battle situation was the most unfavorable, the enemy did not set foot in the border of Kyoto half a step, the coalition army penetrated nearly a thousand miles, although the resistance encountered became stronger and stronger, but the Xiaocai battalion that had been on guard never appeared.

"You can't go any further, order, the teams set up camp early tonight and retreat tomorrow. ”

The commander of the cavalry of the coalition army realized that the situation was not quite right, after entering the boundary of Kyoto, the village was ten rooms and nine empty, even the wells were filled with soil, and the villagers moved into nearby towns.

"General, since the situation is not right, why don't you order a retreat overnight and get out of danger as soon as possible?"

A lieutenant in his thirties followed, puzzled by the commander's disposition, and had been advised not to enter Kyoto in Qili County, where the six cavalry battalions were rushing head-on, and the Linfeng cavalry was difficult to stop their edge, and once the formation was dispersed and then retreated, it was easier said than done, and there was a strong enemy in the back to pursue, and the eastern corps in front of it was intercepted, and the 40,000 people were not good and all of them had to be annihilated.

"If you retreat without a fight, how can you boost the morale of the army in the future, and the prestige of the Linfeng Iron Cavalry will not be lost in my hands. ”

The old general was bitter and inconvenient to say clearly, the king of Linfeng ordered to enter Kyoto, which had made the officers quite dissatisfied, and he was not allowed to engage in battle with the Xiao cavalry battalion, and ruthlessly trampled on the honor of the officers, loyal to the empire, fought bravely, most of the officers who came out of the children's camp, war-weariness gradually put on their faces, and the generals and colonels of the unified army could not be too strict, and most of the bravest officers under his command walked out of the standard battalion, just not to disobey the military order.

After setting up camp, the old general picked up his wine glass and said with a wry smile to several cronies: "The army is advancing and retreating in unity, and when encountering the Xiao cavalry battalion, there is still the strength of a battle, such as a hurried retreat on three roads, and a charge by the Xiao cavalry battalion will turn 40,000 people into stragglers, so I deliberately stopped and camped, so that the left and right teams can move closer to the Chinese army." ”

The next day, the cavalry of the coalition army retreated 300 miles at a rapid marching speed, and after setting up camp, the generals and colonels breathed a sigh of relief. The retreat of the army without a fight made it more difficult for many middle- and lower-ranking officers to identify with the Linfeng Iron Cavalry, and in their hearts, it was better to accept dying under the sword of a strong enemy than to fear the enemy and avoid battle.

The grasp of fighter planes is an important yardstick to measure the ability of officers, when the retreating coalition cavalry camp, when the smoke of the cooking smoke has not dispersed in the morning glow, the hoarse shouts of the scouts of each battalion awakened the dream of the generals and colonels to successfully retreat to the coalition camp.

The cavalry battalion appeared, the cavalry pulled down their masks and led the horses, and the five battalions formed a neat cone formation and stopped the way of the coalition cavalry's retreat.

"The military headquarters ordered to leave a quarter of an hour for the Linfeng cavalry to form a team, and the imperial cavalry disdained to take advantage of the unpreparedness of the people to sneak attack. ”

Outside each coalition camp, there were several teams of horsemen shouting outside the range of bows and arrows, and the cavalry battalion unexpectedly gave up the opportunity for a sneak attack, leaving a chance for the Linfeng cavalry to go head-to-head, 15,000 against 40,000, and the cavalry battalion seemed to treat the enemy as a whetstone that would not fight back.

"General, don't be fooled, they want to take advantage of the whole team to charge. ”

The old general looked at the few captains who shouted with disdain, and turned his gaze to the young captain: "Do you think the words of the cavalry battalion are credible?"

"General, if the cavalry battalion is about to sneak attack, we are all on the way to escape for our lives at this time. ”

If the battalion is stealing the camp at night, the fence of the coalition cavalry can't stop the galloping horses, and it is possible to kill each other in the chaos, and the words of the young lieutenant are still saving face for their colleagues.

"Order, all battalions will form a team, and fight to the death with the cavalry battalion, for the glory of the cavalry!"

The Chinese army camp sounded the horn, the coalition army began to line up outside the camp gate, peeking into the distance from time to time, leading the horses and standing Xiao cavalry battalion soldiers like ancient pine in the morning breeze, the coalition cavalry shouted in the Xiao cavalry camp when they could not talk about the morale of the army, at this time most people just wanted to escape from the chaos for a while.

The drums of war sounded, the cavalry of both sides released the reins of their horses almost at the same time, and nearly 60,000 cavalry rushed to kill on the plain, one side for honor and the other for life, and the difference in combat power did not take long to show. The cavalry battalion did not choose to charge head-on, one by one the standard team galloped around the enemy's ranks, harvesting their lives with longbows and arrows, and seeing that there was no one to stop them on the way back, more and more coalition troops rushed over and did not look back, using the comrades behind them as a shield to save their lives.

In less than half an hour of the battle, the coalition cavalry was scattered, and the remnants of the defeated army fled to the east, while the battalions of the cavalry chased after them from both sides, inserted into the rear of the rout, and divided and surrounded the enemy who had lost their command, and the battle ended quickly, and the coalition army threw down nearly 10,000 horses before they were able to escape.

Cleaning up the battlefield and collecting the war horses, the three battalions escorted the prisoners and drove the war horses back to Beijing, and the two battalions buried the pots to make food to feed the war horses, and at noon the whole team got on the horses and chased down the road where the coalition troops fled.

The allied forces had to stop attacking villages and towns on the way to escape for their lives, while the pursuers had the government to replenish food and grass equipment, and there were local defenders to help stand guard when camping, so that the sergeants and horses could recover as soon as possible.

On the third day, the cavalry battalion caught up with the coalition army, this time it was not polite, the two battalions were like two sharp knives straight into the past, divided the coalition army into three parts, rushed to the end and turned the horse's head, and launched a charge towards the left and right teams, and the coalition army of 30,000 people finally improved a little compared with the last performance, the young captain led the troops to fight to the death with the left side of the cavalry battalion, and the coalition army was able not to disperse, and the main force withdrew to the east under the leadership of the old general. The gap in combat strength was too obvious, and the two battalions that covered the retreat of the main force finally wiped out all the Xiao cavalry battalions, and nearly let the young captain who was wounded all over his body lead more than a dozen personal guards to escape.

When the coalition army was about to retreat to Qili County, the coalition army encountered an ambush by the cavalry battalion, and suffered a big loss under the sudden surprise, barely regrouped the team while fighting and retreating, and another battalion of people chased after him, and the front and rear flanking made the coalition army collapse again, the old general was seriously wounded in the melee, and saw that he was about to fall into encirclement, and ordered the remaining soldiers of the Chinese army battalion to give up resistance, and took advantage of the fact that the captain of the guard was stunned and drew his sword to kill himself, and the coalition cavalry that lost his command scrambled to flee for his life in Qili County.

"Although the old general was defeated, he did not lose his military integrity, and he was buried thickly, remember to mark it well, so that it is convenient for his family to move to his hometown after the war. ”

"Captain, it is recommended to chase down, and not a single enemy will be let go. ”

The captain of the cavalry battalion turned around and got on his horse, and scolded in a low voice before leaving: "Have a long brain, if you dare to lead the troops to chase down, believe it or not, the county lord will even disarm your people." Several standard commanders still wanted to dissuade them again, but the herald came to report on horseback: "Captain, the Tiger Camp has turned around and returned to Beijing." The lieutenant raised his whip and shouted: "Withdraw, rush to the front of the tiger camp." ”

The cavalry battalion fought three times with the cavalry of the coalition army, captured more than 20,000 horses, captured more than 10,000 people, and suffered less than 1,000 casualties.

When the allied cavalry marched westward, it could be said that the soldiers were strong and strong, but now they have lost their armor and even their commanders have been killed, and the battalions have lost their command.

In the western part of Qili County, a river crossed the retreat of the coalition army, and Yu Wenjie led hundreds of archers to guard a stone bridge, smiling at the cavalry fleeing from a distance, which seemed to be thousands of people.

"Don't aim, harass with arrows in the air. ”

The retreating cavalry captain heard the scout's report that the stone bridge had not been destroyed, and only a few hundred people were defending, and the sullen anger of the past few days turned into anger, which was too deceitful.

"You lead the standard team, let the patrols continue to attack, and take the bridge down!"

For the hundreds of archers intercepted, the commander of the standard did not take it seriously, and sent three patrols to seize the bridge, he led the troops to stand on the opposite bank to watch the battle, and did not set up an arrow tower at the head of the bridge to set up a fence when closing the bridge, the cavalry hundred-man team will be more seriously wounded in the first round, and the second round will be close to the archers, and the cavalry and infantry will fight in close combat, and the end does not need to be thought about at all, and hundreds of archers will not be able to run far if they want to escape.

The cavalry rushed to the bridgehead, the archers hurriedly released their arrows, how lethal the arrows could be, a patrol of cavalry was about to rush to the bridgehead in a blink of an eye, and the leading sentry saw Yu Wenjie standing in place and laughed, which seemed to make the Linfeng Iron Cavalry stupid.

Two rows of fences emerged from the ground of the bridgehead, and the iron rods of the thickness of teacups crisscrossed and crisscrossed in front of the cavalry, and dozens of iron rods were diagonally propped up on the ground behind the fence, and two solid iron walls were erected at the bridgehead in an instant.

Yu Wenjie hid behind the heavy shield, laughing at the cavalry cutting the fence with a sabre, the cavalry inspector noticed that something was wrong and ordered to turn around, the smile on Yu Wenjie's face disappeared, raised his hand and ordered the arrow, dozens of steps away, the archers almost did not have to aim, the cavalry close to the fence fell off the horse after being hit by the arrow, and the people behind could not turn the horse's head, and all became the live targets of the archers.

"Dismount, bow and arrow. ”

The cavalry captain is also a ruthless role, on the one hand, he ordered the bridge to shoot at the archers, and on the other hand, he ordered the two markers to cross the river and bypass from both sides of the bridge.

Trying to cross the depth of the river, the two bidders led the horses along the river bank and went into the water, when the river was full of horses and cavalry, the archers beat the war drums behind them, and the ambushes on both sides of the river were everywhere.

Let the cavalry of the cavalry battalion see that they are in an ambush, and the ambushes on both sides of the river are not in sight, the officers ignore the orders of the captain, and each of them leads the troops to flee in all directions, the worst is the sergeant in the river, under the threat of long arrows on the shore, they can only obediently lead the horse and surrender, in other words, they are also the luckiest deserters.

There is no charge formation, no unified command, a cavalry battalion that has escaped the pursuit of the cavalry, nearly 3,000 people let the ambush annihilate most of the half, when it is learned that the ambush soldiers were temporarily drawn from the cities, and only a few days ago they were formed into an army, the strength is only 10,000 people, and the cavalry is pitiful, the faces of the cavalry officers do not know how ugly they are, if they obey the order of the captain, the cavalry battalion can easily break out of the encirclement, and it is not difficult to destroy the ambush soldiers if they are bold, and regret cannot save the captain who died under the random arrows.

After collecting the weapons, the captives were divided into patrol guards, and the leading officers received a passage document with the seal of the county lord, as long as the soldiers did not do evil in Qili County, the government along the way must not deliberately make things difficult, and on the way back with this document, each city and town will arrange food and clothing.

"Officers above captain are issued long swords, and the empire will never trample on the dignity of the samurai. ”

After explaining that the seriously wounded were left to the local government for medical treatment, and after recovering from their injuries and allowing them to leave, Yu Wenjie released all the prisoners, did not interrogate a single person, did not record a single confession, and did not even register the names of the captured officers.

After surrounding the enemy, Qin Rufeng commanded the left guard to intercept the stragglers who tried to escape, she led the guards to kill the Chinese army, the spears flew like into no man's land, when a shot killed the enemy's main general, the enemy in the encirclement wisely chose to surrender, and the combat power of the left guard of Cuihua Palace was no worse than that of the Xiao cavalry battalion.

According to Duguying's order, the western cities dispatched elite soldiers and strong generals to form a team of 40,000 people, intercepted the retreating cavalry at the main road wharf, and the troops occupied an absolute advantage, and they set up an ambush in advance, and the defeated soldiers without fighting spirit almost did not launch a decent battle, and more than 20,000 people left their war horses and ordnance, and returned to the coalition camp on foot with bare hands.

The two prefectures could not be attacked for a long time, more than half of the 100,000 elite cavalry were lost, and there were murderous broken military camps lurking in Donghai County, and the generals in front of the coalition army were no longer optimistic about the battle situation.

The offensive and defensive trend of the eastern battlefield changed, the coalition forces in the west and south did not dare to act rashly, the northern corps of the empire made slow progress and suffered heavy losses, and had to stop the offensive and turn to defense.
