Just when the Jin army thought they were about to defeat the Song army's formation, Fu Liang came with his cavalry.

After discovering the traces of the Song Army's cavalry, the Jin Army's Guaizima did not dare to continue to harass the Song Army. Instead, they quickly gathered to avoid being concentrated by the Song Army.

In the age of cold weapons, infantry and cavalry were very powerful once they were combined and coordinated with each other.

Zhang saw that the Jin cavalry were retreating one after another, and he guessed that the Jin people had detected the Song army's reinforcements.

He couldn't help but sigh: "Xiangong Li should not have sent people here!"

Sure enough, the Jin army's scouts also passed the news to Zong Wang.

"Okay, the Song Army is indeed here." Zong Wang smiled.

The Jin army's Guaizima began to retreat, distanced themselves from the Song army, and gathered together.

Fu Liang brought people over, and he saw Zhang Suo: "Manager Zhang, I am here to support you on the order of Xianggong Li."

"The main force of the Jin people must have advanced, let's return to Cangzhou quickly."

Seeing that only the cavalry came, Zhang Suo felt relieved.

Fortunately, Cangzhou's main defensive force did not come.

The strength of the Cangzhou Army was not comparable to that of Yue Fei's troops, and it was impossible for them to engage in a head-on positional battle with the Jin Army.

Zhang Suo looked back at the kidnappers who were not far away. It was obvious that they were not planning to attack for the time being.

Time passed little by little, and soon it was noon. The soldiers retreated and ate cakes at the same time.

"Report!" The scout came, "Report, we found a large number of Jin Army infantry chasing this way."

"How many people came?"

"At least ten thousand people!"

Zhang Suo took a deep breath, and it was as he expected.

Fu Liang said: "I'm going to meet the main force of the Jin Army!"

"Don't act rashly. The Jin people's kidnappers are still nearby. They are waiting for you to take action and surprise you when you launch an attack on the main force."

"Then now..."

"Keep the formation unchanged, retreat quickly, and don't stop."

Zhang Suo was calm and collected.

The Song army was trotting on the wide plain, and no one spoke.

The Jin army was also trotting, and the infantry regiment of ten thousand people was like a large black torrent flowing quietly on the earth.

Not long after, Guaizima suddenly appeared in front of the Song army.

The cavalry of both sides began to fight, and the Song infantry continued to retreat.

After a while, a small group of kidnapper horses blocked the path of the Song army's infantry.

Zhang Suo secretly complained that something was not right. The Jin army was divided and restrained. His intention was not to attack the Song army, but to hold it back until the main force of the Jin army arrived.

He looked at the soldiers who had been on the road for a long time, and they all looked tired.

"Fu Liang, bring the cavalry back to the city, and I will hold off the Jin army!"

"No, I came to meet you on orders from Xianggong Li!"

"No need, the Jin army is well prepared. We can't stop it at all. The main force of the Jin army will come soon. You have to keep the cavalry in case of emergencies!"

"Now is the time of need!" Fu Liang said decisively, "The golden man invades the border, how can we retreat!"

"But……"

Fu Liang interrupted him and said, "What is said in the martial arts hall?"

"To die in battle is the highest honor for a soldier!"

Fu Liang pulled the reins and the horse spun twice on the ground. He turned back and looked at Zhang Suo with firm eyes and said, "Why do we fight?

Zhang Suo was also infected: "If a man is a real man and joins the army, it is natural for him to protect his family and country!"

Fu Liang said loudly: "Behind is Cangzhou City, what's behind Cangzhou City? Behind is the Song Dynasty, with tens of millions of people!"

"I heard that during the Northern Expedition, Yue Fei faced the golden thieves head-on during the Battle of Qizhou. Countless soldiers died in the battle, and the military formation was not in chaos!"

"They can fight to death, why can't we!"

"In the seventh year of Xuanhe, we retreated! In the first year of Jingkang, we retreated! In the second year of Jingkang, we retreated! In the third year of Jingkang, we retreated to Cangzhou!"

"After we retreated, Zhending, Zhongshan, and Hejian fell one after another!"

"Now, we can't retreat any longer!"

Fu Liang's voice floated around.

The soldiers looked at him, with renewed strength in their tired eyes.

Zhang Suo took a deep breath, his heart burning with emotion.

"Yue Fei went on the Northern Expedition! He fought with Xixia many times in the northwest! He also fought with the Golden Thieves and Goryeo in Liaodong several times! He surrounded us in Cangzhou and defended the city all the time. Even if we come out now, we still want to go back to defend it.

city!"

Zhang Suo's eyes turned red instantly.

"Are we joining the army just to defend the city?"

"My sons, we are also a glorious army!" Zhang Suo rode on his horse and shouted loudly, "Today, we will not retreat. We will stay here and not return to Cangzhou. Let's go home together!"

The soldiers were infected by him and shouted: "I won't go back to Cangzhou. Please give me the order from General Manager Zhang!"

"All soldiers assemble!"

The horn sounded again, and the infantry regiment began to quickly form formation.

This time it is not a long line array, but an overall square array.

A total of 1,913 people lined up on the plain in a neat formation.

After the cavalry of both sides fought for a while, the Jin army's cavalry retreated first.

The Song army also retreated, and the cavalry quickly formed their formation.

This time, they really didn't retreat.

Zhang Suo rode his horse back and forth in front of the military formation: "My sons, behind us is Cangzhou, our home! We are soldiers! To die here is our duty! It is our honor!"

Finally, he shouted: "Let's go home together!"

The soldiers shouted in unison: "Go home together!"

This time, no one was afraid.

Along the way, the Song army stood quietly on the plain, waiting for the main force of the Jin army.

The clouds were lower and the soldiers were all wet with sweat.

Not long after, the sound of dense footsteps could be heard faintly on the quiet plain.

As time went by, those footsteps became more and more obvious.

A long black line also appeared in Song Jun's field of vision, and gradually became clearer.

Ten thousand Jin Army infantry advanced rapidly towards the 1,913 Song Army infantry and 2,956 Song Army cavalry in front.

On the other side, there were 2,946 kidnappers staring at the Song army like a pack of wolves.

You can't take advantage at any time.

There is not a city that can be defended at any time.

When faced with superior enemy forces and no way to retreat, some people choose to break up and flee, while others choose to stay.

Farming the fields is what farmers should do, so everyone has food to eat.

Weaving and spinning were done by workers, so everyone had clothes to wear.

Guarding the borders and protecting the country with flesh and blood is what soldiers should do, so that farmers can farm with peace of mind and workers can spin with peace of mind.

Jin Jun was shocked to find that Song Jun suddenly stopped here.

Because the strength of the Song army on this road was far less than the main force of the Jin army.

They hesitated for a moment before deciding to attack the Song army head-on.

Soon, the two sides started a head-on battle.

Guaizima attempted to flank the Song infantry, but was restrained by the Song cavalry.

The Jin Army infantry had to fight the Song Army head-on.

The strikers, armed with shields and axes, clashed with each other.

As soon as they came up, they entered into the most brutal hand-to-hand combat.

Heads were smashed one by one with blunt objects.
