Chapter 816 0811 [The pursuit turns into a bloody battle]

Someone may betray the Jin and surrender, Ju Ming has already guessed it.

However, on the first night of the confrontation between the two armies, an enemy general directly burned the camp and caused chaos, which was completely beyond Ju Ming's expectation.

Things were so outrageous that the Ming army did not respond immediately!

The shouts coming from three miles away were first heard by the Ming army patrolling the river, and they immediately went to report the news. More than 10,000 Ming troops who were camped nearby were also awakened one after another, because they were sleeping with their armor on.

Always maintain a high degree of vigilance.

Zhang Xian and Zhong Yanchong each led their troops out of the camp and quickly formed formations by the river, waiting for Ju Ming to issue specific orders.

Yang Yun, Li Shifu, Yang Zaixing and other cavalry officers led the main horses to the river.

Gu San rode his horse and galloped through the camp, urging the heavy infantry to hurry up and take up their armor.

Hua Rong led the musketeers to protect the outside of Ju Ming's camp.

On the deeper level, Bai Sheng summoned the guards to form a formation to protect Ju Ming and the accompanying eunuchs and civil servants.

Zhu Ming had already put on the Heavenly King's Armor and was helped onto his horse, rushing to the river regardless of everyone's dissuasion.

"Drumming! Cross the river! Cross the river!"

Ju Ming shouted loudly.

The rumble of drums soon started.

In fact, the generals were already preparing to cross the river, but the entire army only arrived in the afternoon, and there was only enough time to set up camp. Although the civilians cut back a lot of wood, the craftsmen only had time to process the wood, and did not even start nailing the planks of the pontoon bridge.

The enemy general who burned the camp and caused chaos was too anxious to do what he did!

If it had been launched a few days later to allow Ju Ming to prepare for crossing the river, the entire Jin army would have been wiped out.

Of course, if Ju Ming was ready to cross the river, the Jin soldiers might be frightened and withdraw directly, and Liu E's fellow might not have the chance to cause trouble.

It can only be said that Liu E's defection was too unexpected and caught all the generals on both sides off guard.

The seven thousand cavalrymen put their armor on their horses, then quickly crossed the river with their arms around the horses' necks. After landing on the shore, they helped each other put on their armor, then got on their horses and chased them out.

As for the infantry, they carried the logs and threw them into the water, then lay on the logs and swam quickly.

The Ming cavalry had not run far when they found hundreds of golden cavalry approaching.

These are all the elite soldiers of Liu E's clan. When the Jin Kingdom was at its peak, the Liu family once had over 10,000 troops (including temporarily recruited militiamen). Therefore, when Wanyan Zongwang occupied Youyan, Liu E's father was regarded as Youyan

Number two.

But after repeated defeats, there were too many casualties and fleeing, and they were dispersed and resettled when they moved back to Liaodong. Liu E only had a few hundred cavalry left in his hands - of course there were miscellaneous soldiers, but they could not be brought out after surrendering to the enemy at night.

"Long live the Ming Dynasty, we are here to surrender and submit! Don't fire cannons and cannons, we are here to surrender and submit!"

"Long live the Ming Dynasty, we are here to surrender and submit! Don't fire cannons and cannons, we are here to surrender and submit!"

Liu E ordered hundreds of cavalrymen to dismount, eliminating the threat to the Ming Dynasty cavalry. Then he stood on the ground, waved torches and shouted loudly.

Seven thousand cavalrymen galloped wildly, unable to hear what was being said on the other side.

Liu E's action of dismounting his entire army and waving torches truly conveyed the message of surrender.

Yang Yun reined in his horse and slowed down slightly, and shouted to the ordering soldier: "Let the surrendered general follow and kill the enemy!"

The messenger immediately advanced at full speed, rushed to Liu E and shouted: "Follow me and kill the enemy!"

Liu E was overjoyed and turned around and ordered: "My sons, follow me to kill the golden dog and save our families!"

A few miles ahead, the mountains and plains were filled with defeated troops.

Unfortunately, although the Jin Kingdom had a small population, it had more than enough horses. Not only did they have their own horse farms, but they also ordered the grassland tribes to donate horses. The militiamen who had fought two wars were temporarily allocated bad horses for traveling.

When the Jin soldiers fled, their first reaction was to look for horses, and then fled regardless of military orders.

Those who were still running for their lives on two legs were mostly new recruits and some unlucky ones who couldn't find their horses.

Hearing the sound of horse hooves approaching, the defeated troops in front fled to both sides, leaving the road and kneeling down to surrender to the Ming army.

The distance of several miles was quickly shortened. Yang Zaixing led two thousand cavalry to cut down the broken soldiers blocking the road like mowing grass. Soon he rushed into the canyon between two hills.

The canyon is about seven or eight miles long, nearly two miles at its widest point, and only half a mile at its narrowest point.

Of course, the hills on both sides are not steep, and horses can be raced on the slopes in some places.

“Woooooooo~~~”

Just as Yang Zaixing was about to rush out of the valley entrance, a horn suddenly sounded in front of him.

Zha Meng'an, the only remaining member of the East Route Army of the Jin Dynasty, rushed toward Yang Zaixing with more than a thousand knights.

All the cavalry of all ethnic groups fled and could not be restrained at all. Wanyan Zongfu could only personally lead the Jurchen elite to block the attack in the place where they were easiest to ambush.

In fact, the Bohai cavalry had not finished running yet. Gao Biao led hundreds of brave cavalry and was charging with Wanyan Zongfu.

The hatred of genocide and the ruthlessness of taking away his wife made him sworn in with the Ming army.

In vain, Yang Zaixing did not realize the danger.

He was even a little excited and led his troops to charge faster.

The two armies were getting closer and closer, and with the faint moonlight, Yang Zaixing finally understood the situation.

"Blow the horn to warn me, follow me and charge!"

It's too late to retreat, so we can only speed up and rush over.

Hezha Meng'an did not gather together to charge, but formed mixed teams to fight. Twenty heavy cavalry were in the middle, thirty valiant cavalry were on both sides, and teams of fifty cavalry charged alternately.

In the moment of the battle, the Ming cavalry suffered over a hundred casualties.

Yang Zaixing pierced the iron pagoda's armor with a spear, but it only made the opponent shake. He simply gave up the spear, pulled out the iron mace from his waist, and rushed towards the other iron pagoda with a wave of his arms.

Yang Zaixing easily dodged the iron pagoda spear that struck him, and then swept it out with his mace.

"puff!"

The iron pagoda vomited blood and flew backwards from the horse.

The sound of the horn before Yang Zaixing entered the battle shocked Yang Yun and Li Shifu.

Li Shifu said to the messenger: "I led the troops to abandon their horses and charge, and circled from the hillside to the enemy's right wing. You go and tell General Yang!"

The messenger turned around and galloped forward to notify Yang Yun, who was holding the battle in the rear.

Yang Yun immediately understood what he meant and led his troops from the hillside to the left flank of the Jin soldiers.

The hillsides on both sides are relatively gentle, and you can run horses in most places. However, there are too many gravels and rocks, and the light is very dim, so the Ming army cavalry stumbled and fell if they were not careful.

The moment Li Shifu fell from the horse, he quickly took out the stirrups with both feet, and then used the momentum to roll over without being injured. Then he stood up and abandoned his gun and ran on the hillside.

The cavalry under Yang Zaixing's command now had between five and six hundred casualties.

However, more than ten teams of Jin cavalry rushing in front were entangled by more and more Ming army cavalry. Their horses slowed down and they were no longer able to charge. They could only move and fight in a small area on horseback.

The following golden cavalry rushed to respond, but because the terrain was too narrow and there were too many cavalry in the canyon, the front rows of cavalry on both sides were completely in a melee.

"Retreat and charge again! Charge alternately!"

Although the Jin cavalry achieved great results, Wanyan Zongfu was made restless.

The Ming army cavalry was not defeated by Hezha Meng'an, but instead entangled Hezha Meng'an in front!

Yang Zaixing was also completely entangled, and the space around him for his horse to move was very narrow. While he was fighting in a bloody battle, he was looking for the enemy general, but unfortunately the light was too dark and it was difficult to see clearly.

Yang Zaixing could not find the enemy generals, but some enemy generals took the initiative to find him.

In another time and space, Gao Biao, one of the most powerful generals under Jin Wushu, killed three Ming army knights one after another, and finally rode his horse to the front of Yang Zaixing.

Gao Biao stabbed with his spear, fast and fierce.

Yang Zaixing dodged another enemy's weapon, but charged towards Gao Biao head-on. Feeling unable to dodge Gao Biao's spear, Yang Zaixing subconsciously swung his mace and swung it out, parrying and evading in dangerous ways.

Gao Biao put away his gun and came back. The horse could not move away, so he could only rein in the horse and turn around, and shot Yang Zaixing in the back again.

Yang Zaixing was stabbed in the waist. Fortunately, his armor blocked him and he was thrown forward on horseback.

It was too late to turn the horse's head, and another Jin cavalry also came to attack. Yang Zaixing dismounted and broke the leg of the Jin cavalry with his mace.

This was a fierce attack, the horse's leg was broken, the war horse screamed and dropped the iron can hard.

Yang Zaixing snatched the spear from the opponent's hand and rolled to avoid Gao Biao's pursuit of the spear. Then he half-crouched and poked Gao Biao who was still riding a horse. While Gao Biao was dodging, Yang Zaixing threw away his spear and raised his mace to pounce.

"Buzz buzz..."

The mace even made a cracking sound and hit the horse's leg hard.

Gao Biao fell down with his horse, but at the moment he fell off the horse, he adjusted his body and rushed towards Yang Zaixing.

The two fierce warriors hugged each other and struggled.

The two sides were constantly being joined by cavalry, and they were completely unable to charge. They could only stop and engage in melee on horseback. From time to time, horses' hooves would step on the sides of the two of them. They no longer had much to care about, and they just wanted to kill each other with hand-to-hand combat as soon as possible.

Short weapons are useless because they are entangled together.

At this moment, Li Shifu led the abandoned cavalry from the hillside to join the battlefield.

This fierce man threw away his spear and rushed in with a pair of knives.

His pair of swords were typical Song hand knives, but they were thicker and heavier and could be used as blunt weapons. He was short and avoided the weapons of the Jin cavalry, and Li Shifu swung the sword to chop the horse's legs. The force was almost the same as hitting it with an iron rod.

.

In this way, fighting on foot can kill enemies faster than on horseback.

The cavalry on both sides were entangled, and the golden cavalry could not get out of the way. Li Shifu rushed in front and chopped off the horse's legs, and the infantry cavalry who followed immediately rushed up to surround and kill the fallen enemy.

Even those who joined forces with their horses had their legs cut off and fell down one after another, and were immediately surrounded and killed by more than two Ming troops.

The solid heavy armor turned into a shackles after falling from the horse.

Often one Ming soldier would hold him down, while another Ming soldier would pull off his neck and wipe his neck.

Or just use the iron bone flower and the iron mace to hit the head.

If it hits the visor, it will immediately bloom all over the face.

Hitting the helmet would have caused a concussion at least.

On the other side, Yang Yun also led his cavalry and abandoned their horses to come around the battlefield from the hillside.

Wanyan Zongfu saw that he was helpless and ordered: "Blow the trumpet and retreat!"

Yang Zaixing and Gao Biao were still tumbling and fighting. Both sides were extremely powerful, and they were evenly matched.

But in the end, Yang Zaixing was the better one. He finally gained the upper hand during the rolling and wrestling. Gao Biao was lying on top and Yang Zaixing was lying on the bottom, but Yang Zaixing's right arm severely strangled Gao Biao's neck.

Gao Biao's face turned red due to suffocation, and he stretched out his hand to pry Yang Zaixing's arm away.

Yang Zaixing grabbed his right hand with his left hand and used both arms together.

Gao Biao was so anxious that he kicked his legs wildly, but his strength was getting weaker and weaker, and he was finally strangled to death by Yang Zaixing.

The retreat horn of the Jin soldiers has been sounded, but it is difficult for the entangled heavy cavalry and valiant cavalry of the Jin state to leave the battlefield calmly.

In this battle, the Ming cavalry suffered heavy casualties.

But the only remaining piece of Hezha Meng'an in Wanyan Zongfu's hand was broken into half - Wanyan Zonghan still had it in his hand.

What did Wanyan Zongfu rely on to intimidate the armies of all ethnic groups?

Just rely on these elites!

Half of the Hezha Meng'an was gone, hundreds of Jurchen knights were still riding in, and Gao Biao, who was loyal to the Jin Kingdom, was also dead.

Can those heroes from various races who are already rebellious be able to suppress them next?
