A person who is already in his fifties has been addicted to drinking and sex in the past few years, and his physical strength has long been reduced.
He rushed from the Mu Us Desert, only resting briefly twice on the way, and braved the sandstorm. He waited for dark ten miles away from Yanzhou City, only rested for an hour, and then rushed straight into the battle.
The man is tired and the horse is exhausted!
According to Brother Richard's idea, the city can be captured in one fell swoop.
Even if there were Ming army sentries patrolling outside the city and blowing horns to warn the defenders inside the city, it would be difficult for the defenders to quickly deploy their defenses at night.
At this moment, a group of Ming cavalry was chasing after them. Brother Richard blew the trumpet twice, telling his cavalry to separate and escape, and sent cavalry many times to block the rear.
The Xixia cavalry responsible for breaking up the rear, frightened by Brother Richard's power, reined in their horses, slowed down and turned around to defend themselves against the enemy.
But when Wu Lin led his army to charge over, these Xixia cavalry were frightened, and suddenly they did not dare to physically block the Ming army, and dispersed in a rush after thirty or forty steps.
Wu Lin ignored these defeated enemies at all and focused on Brother Richard's own team.
Although it was difficult to see clearly in the dark, under such circumstances, they were still able to send troops to break up the rear and constantly blow the trumpets to give orders. Then there must be a Xixia general in front.
Gradually, no one had the courage to divorce Brother Richard.
Brother Richard separated the cavalry behind him and fled in three directions. Wu Lin was still chasing Brother Richard.
Brother Richard really couldn't figure out how the enemy general who was chasing him recognized him?
It's very simple. Most of them are tribal cavalry in other directions.
But those who have been following Brother Richard are his personal soldiers and Iron Harrier.
After being crippled by Han Shizhong and Yue Fei last year, Brother Richard reorganized the soldiers and iron kites who escaped alive into an elite cavalry force of more than a thousand people.
Even if they were defeated in the dark night, this elite cavalry looked different.
They escaped more neatly and orderly.
Moreover, they also automatically "isolated" the friendly troops. The other tribal cavalry were always at a distance from them, as if being too close would be an offense.
If it were Yao Pingzhong chasing after him, he would definitely be able to find clues.
Unfortunately, Yao Pingzhong made the wrong pursuit at the beginning. He was pursuing Mu Xiaoliang, the commander-in-chief of Yanzhou.
Li Jiqian's biological mother's surname is Zong.
Li Yuanhao's biological mother's surname is Wei Mu.
These surnames are all from the Xixia clan, and most of the civil and military positions were occupied by them.
In order to escape for his life, Wei Mu Xiaoliang became even more frantic. He sprinted towards death, galloped all the way with the help of his good horse, left all his own soldiers behind, and disappeared into the night on horseback alone.
In a situation like this, the troops under his command are effectively useless, and it will be difficult to regroup within a month or two.
Yao Pingzhong chased for a long time and finally caught a decent enemy general.
The guy stumbled and fell to the ground, shouting in extremely fluent Chinese: "Don't kill me. My brother is the imperial censor Zhongcheng Rela Gongji, and it was my brother who arranged for Ren Dejing's daughter to enter the palace! My name is Rela Gongren
, I can take you to fight against Huaizhou! Spare your life, spare your life..."
All party surnames are transliterated, and there are more than a hundred surnames recorded in history books, official documents, inscriptions, Buddhist scriptures, and official seals.
The surname "Rela" is nothing, but there are also people with the surname "Iran".
Of course, among these more than one hundred surnames, several can often be classified as one. For example, Iran, Yilang, and Yilang actually belong to the same surname.
"Tied!"
Yao Pingzhong gave an order and continued to lead his troops to pursue and defeat the enemy.
In the wilderness, countless Xixia cavalry were running around, even confused about their direction. Sometimes when they heard the sound of horse hooves from the left, they were frightened and turned to the right. After escaping for a while, they realized that they were running back to Yanzhou City.
At the beginning, they all followed their respective chiefs and herdsmen, running away without paying attention to anyone.
No one dared to stop and blow the trumpet, they were afraid of attracting the Ming cavalry. Because blowing the trumpet meant that they had not lost their organization and would become the key target of the Ming cavalry.
Brother Richard didn't dare to play the trumpet anymore, but he still couldn't get rid of Wu Lin.
Brother Richard, who had traveled a long distance, escaped for more than ten miles, but was chased closer and closer due to lack of men and horses.
The formations of the soldiers and iron kites also became more and more scattered, and some people kept deliberately turning away from Brother Richard.
"ah!"
A scream came from behind, and Brother Richard was so frightened that he quickly leaned down and accelerated. It was one of his soldiers who was attacked.
"The one with the helmet and tassel must be the Xixia general!" shouted a Ming cavalryman.
"Chasing the helmet tassel!"
"Chasing the helmet tassel!"
The shouts came one after another. Brother Richard reached out to touch his helmet and found that there was indeed a helmet tassel on the top of his head.
He quickly tore off the helmet rope, took off the helmet and threw it away.
Brother Richard accelerated his horse again and whipped the horse's butt crazily, no longer caring about the possibility of outrunning the horse.
Sprinting away at full speed is like flying with wings on your back, just barely leaving the ground.
No matter how Wu Lin mobilized his horses, he could not catch up even if he chased him to death. This was the crushing gap between the two horses.
Brother Richard left everyone behind, including his own soldiers.
Escaped, actually let Brother Richard escape!
Wu Lin shouted: "Keep chasing him. He can't escape far like this, and the war horse will soon be exhausted!"
Brother Richard didn't dare to pause at all, and kept running wildly.
I don’t know how long I had been running away, but the sky was getting slightly brighter, and Brother Richard finally stopped whipping his horse.
He wanted to slow down slowly and stop.
But the horse lost its spur and seemed to have been drained of all its strength. Its front legs became weak and it suddenly fell, throwing Brother Richard away.
Brother Richard was beaten to pieces, his head was dizzy, and his whole body was in severe pain and he couldn't stand up.
After a while, he put his hands on the ground and tried to get up, but felt a sharp pain in his right arm. It was because he had broken his arm when he fell off the horse.
Brother Richard was so painful that he was sweating all over, and his old nose was weakened. He untied his armband and armband with one hand. Then he took off his body armor and took off the armor on his chest and back. In an instant, he felt more relaxed.
He walked slowly towards the horse.
This top-notch horse from Ganzhou Racecourse was lying on the ground, twitching and foaming, looking at its owner pitifully.
He definitely won't survive.
Brother Richard couldn't use his right arm, so he drew the sword with his left hand and pressed it against the horse's neck.
With all his strength, he pressed down and blood spurted out from the horse's neck. Brother Richard stretched out his mouth to drink the horse's blood.
It not only relieves the war horse from pain, but also replenishes its own physical strength.
After filling his stomach with horse blood, Brother Richard stood in the wilderness and looked around at no one.
He didn't know where he was because he forgot which direction he was running in. He was afraid that the Ming army would pursue him directly, so he even turned around in the middle.
Brother Richard took off all his armor, cut off two pieces of horse meat, and carried it with his clothes as he walked northeast.
He did not dare to go west. Even if he did not encounter the Ming army, he would starve to death in the semi-desert.
Although the east side has long been occupied by the Ming army, there are mountains and water sources, so it is not easy for people to starve to death or be captured by the Ming army.
After walking for a whole day, Brother Richard entered the hilly area.
His broken arm had become swollen. He went to a valley somewhere to rest at night, and when he woke up he was dizzy, his whole body was hot, and he was running a high fever.
He struggled to get up, but finally gave up and fell into a drowsy sleep.
In a daze, Brother Richard felt someone shouting. He opened his eyes with difficulty and saw a hunter. He suddenly said happily: "I..."
Sore throat and hoarse voice.
"Save me..." Brother Richard said weakly, "I... am... King Jin... Brother Richard..."
Orion was ecstatic: "Are you really the King of Jin?"
Brother Richard found it difficult to nod at this moment, so he blinked and said, "It's me..."
Orion raised his foot and stepped down hard, and he stepped on Brother Richard's broken arm.
"ah!"
Brother Richard screamed, and he was frightened and angry. He reluctantly touched the knife on his waist.
But nothing happened. It turned out that his knife was in the hand of Orion.
Orion smiled and said: "I'll take you to collect the reward. If you want to live, don't move around. Just let me tie you up. A living Jin King is always more valuable than a dead Jin King."
As expected, Brother Richard stopped moving and started talking to distract the other party: "Where is this?"
Orion said: "Fox Valley."
"It turns out we have arrived at Fox Valley..." Brother Richard looked miserable.
When Li Jiqian was defeated, Tian Qinzuo led his troops to attack from Wanjingkou. Li Jiqian was beaten and fled to Dijinze to lick his wounds.
Those were the days when Li Jiqian was at his most depressed.
Can I make a comeback like my ancestors?
"Hand over, be honest!" Orion scolded.
Brother Richard said: "My arm... is broken and I can't use it anymore."
Orion stretched out his hand to pull it away, and Brother Richard screamed in pain.
Stimulated by the pain, Brother Richard suddenly turned around and fought back, scaring the Orion so much that he struck out with his knife.
The knife hit Brother Richard on the face, and he was immediately chopped down.
Orion was afraid of another accident, so he simply added a few more cuts and hacked Brother Richard to death.
The famous general of the Xixia generation, King Richard of Jin, died in the hands of a hunter just like this.
At that time, Liu Fa, the best general in the northwest, was forced by Tong Guan to go deep into the army alone. When he broke out of the encirclement, he fell off a cliff and broke his leg. He was actually killed by a Xixia grain transport soldier.
Brother Richard sighed and sighed when he saw Liu Fa's body, and now it was finally his turn.
The hunter carried Brother Richard's head and ran quickly to the nearby Wanjingkou. He was far away from the village wall and shouted: "Don't shoot arrows, don't shoot arrows. The head of King Richard of Jin is here!"
There are only a few hundred garrison troops and civilians in Wanjingkou Village.
The garrison couldn't even understand what Orion was saying, but the local citizen understood clearly: "General, great work has come, and outside is the head of Brother Richard, King of the Jin Dynasty of Xixia!"
The guard general was just the battalion commander of the Fengxiang Mansion garrison, a low-level general of the second-line army, who was thrown to Wanjingkou to garrison the fort.
He never thought that he would be able to make any meritorious deeds, he only hoped to end the war as soon as possible.
A human head was delivered to my door!
The guard general took the local civilian husband and quickly called the Orion in for questioning. Then he went to look for Brother Richard's body and sent people to Yanzhou City and Baichi City to report the news.
…
But they said that they had been waiting hard for a whole day, but before Brother Richard returned, they saw the cavalry who had escaped.
"Our army was defeated."
"Where is King Jin?"
"I don't know. Has Prince Jin come back yet?"
"Prince Jin won't be captured, right?"
"..."
The cavalry who stayed here to guard the livestock, as well as those who fled back one after another, became more and more frightened and confused.
Suddenly, a chief drew his sword and kidnapped him without any warning.
"What are you going to do?" Bin Cunli was shocked.
The chief said to other Xixia soldiers: "Daxia is definitely gone. From now on, we can only be loyal to Emperor Zhu, otherwise we will not get back our pastures and herdsmen. This guy's daughter is a queen, so I just happened to capture it and give it to the soldiers of tomorrow!"
Everyone reacted and thought it made sense.
When Bin Cunli knew that he would not die for the time being, he said shamelessly: "I have long wanted to surrender to the Ming Dynasty. Brothers, please do not kill me. You send me gifts to see the general of the Ming army, and I will take the Ming army with me."
Xingqing Mansion persuaded the young emperor to surrender. When Xingqing Mansion is captured, we will all have great contributions!"
