He Jingyuan rushed down the fort with great excitement and rushed towards the command post. Before anyone arrived, the voice had already spread far away, "Supervisor, Supervisor...Reinforcements...Reinforcements are coming...
....”
Tie Mo, Wang Zuoguan and others were preparing to retreat. When they saw He Jingyuan roaring like a ghost, they angrily said: "Shut up and talk properly. Where are the reinforcements coming from?"
"There are really reinforcements. The bandits' camp in the south has been overthrown by now..."
In the blink of an eye, Zhou Dingshan also hurriedly entered the house and explained the situation in the south, which was considered to be confirmation of He Jingyuan's news.
Tie Mo and Wang Zuoguan looked at each other, wondering in their hearts. Could it be that the troops from Hangu Pass were really rushing over?
Hesitation is the most taboo at this time. Tie Mo made a decision immediately: "Dingshan, organize all the soldiers and horses on the shore and rush over for me. He Jingyuan, how much inventory do you have? Give me every last one and give it to General Zhou."
Open a way. While the thieves are in chaos, I must slap Zhang Damou's face until it becomes swollen."
You only get one chance, you must seize it.
Although reinforcements have arrived, the number will definitely not be too large. Over time, they will not be able to escape the fate of being surrounded and suppressed by bandits.
The peasant army was caught off guard by Ding Luyan's reinforcements and was completely in chaos. Similarly, the Xuanfu army was also in chaos. Because of Tie Mo's order, many soldiers and horses who were ready to board the ship and return to the north bank were immediately disbanded.
, led by their respective generals, headed south. Zhou Dingshan didn't have time to think of any good plans now. Time was tight, so he could only fight directly.
He Jingyuan also took out all the stocks. The artillery shells opened a path and exploded directly on the Tianpo Highlands. Zhou Dingshan followed the opened road and rushed directly to the Tianpo Highlands. The counterattack of the Xuanfu soldiers and horses was sharp and fast, and the peasant army
He was blinded for a while. Due to insufficient troops, Tie Mo did not listen to the advice and also led the sand sculpture and his soldiers to join the battle group.
Looking at the empty command post, Wang Zuoguan felt like crying. It was just a counterattack. What sense does it make for you, a dignified commander, to run over and lead the charge? After a while, he shouted at the door: "Miao Mei, Miao."
Beautiful...you roll over here for me and press everyone up. Where is my knife? Who took my knife away?"
Miao Mei was standing guard outside the door. When Wang Zuoguan called out, he rushed in, "This... the supervisor has ordered me to let my younger brother protect you. Also, the supervisor has taken away your sword."
, he said it would be easy to use..."
"It's really stupid. The supervisors have already rushed forward. Why should I stay here? Lead the people and rush forward. Let's go kill the bandits together." Wang Zuogao left the house angrily, and Miao Mei quickly followed. Miao Mei
I have been good brothers with Wang Zuoguan for many years, and I know Wang Zuoguan's abilities well. When it comes to strategizing, Wang Zuoguan is second to none, but when it comes to fighting in battle, I am not exaggerating. I don't think I can defeat four of him by myself.
"Brother Wang...you'd better not go, right? The Superintendent has ordered you to stay safely on the shore..."
"Shut up, brother Miao, do you look down on your brother?" Wang Zuogao stared and didn't recognize him at all. What else could Miao Mei say? She could only respond with an embarrassed wry smile. Brother Wang really has no self-awareness.
At the Tianpo Highlands, the peasant army had been completely driven down. A strong man took the lead with a steel knife and killed majestically. Zhou Dingshan took the opportunity to take a breath, turned his head and looked, and almost fainted from fright. Oh my God,
Brother Tie actually rushed to the front line to kill the enemy himself. Isn't this a trick? Zhou Dingshan didn't know that Tie Mo became more and more excited as he fought. He hadn't been on the front line for a long time, and he really missed that feeling.
At this time, Zhou Dingshan no longer had the intention to chase down the traitors, so he decisively withdrew a few steps and came to Tie Mo. He didn't have the guts to yell at Tie Mo, but he had a strong opinion of Sha Diao, "Brother Sha, what are you doing?"
Did you get the supervisor here?"
The sand sculpture simply rolled his eyes, "Who can control what he wants to do? He rushed forward with the knife in hand, what do you want me to do? Really... He still thinks of himself as the boss...
..He kills happily, but others are careful!"
There are many benefits to being a dignified commander and taking the lead bravely. The morale of the soldiers and horses in Xuanfu has almost reached its peak. The peasant army is retreating steadily and cannot resist it. Gradually, the Beida camp is attacked. Under such circumstances, Zhang Damou must
Mobilize heavy troops to the Beida Camp. Now the problem arises. If the troops are concentrated in the Beida Camp, the chaos in the South Camp cannot be eliminated in a short time.
How could it be so easy to block the counterattack of Xuanfu troops? Zhang Da was so anxious that he almost got angry, but the Beidaying defense line still failed to hold up. The hastily organized defense line was simply a piece of paper.
Previously, they were bombarded by artillery, their morale collapsed, and then they were attacked in the rear. Now Xuanfu's musketeers and infantry have also begun to counterattack. How much fighting power does the peasant army with low morale have? In less than an hour, Zhang Damou
The most worrying thing happened. Due to the unfavorable outcome of the war, the number of casualties increased sharply, and many people began to desert.
The biggest problem with the Peasant Army was that they dispersed in a hurry due to the unfavorable outcome of the war. The Peasant Army seemed to have a large number of people, but most of them were refugees and had not received any formal training. It became common for them to be defeated in a battle and flee in all directions.
Even though Zhang Damou had thought about this problem, he still couldn't prevent the collapse from happening.
Zhang Yichuan was at the front and killed many deserters, but with little effect. At this time, almost the entire front line of Beidaying collapsed, and everyone fled south. Because the supervising team was too harsh, it aroused the ferocity of the deserters, and almost started internal strife.
, Zhang Yichuan withdrew in dejection with his soldiers. He was afraid that a bigger chaos would occur and he would die among the soldiers.
"It's no longer possible. We can't stop them from the front... Most people have lost their will to fight. The various departments are beginning to collapse, and nothing can be done to stop them..."
Zhang Yichuan showed complicated eyes and moved his throat. He seemed to have something to say, but after hesitating for a moment, he still didn't say it. Zhang Damou was a little dumbfounded. He was really unwilling to do so. It was just a little bit, really.
A little bit. It has pushed the Living King of Hell to the edge of the cliff. If he pushes it again, he should roll back to the north bank. But at this time, an accident happened.
Could it be that the Living King of Hell is the nemesis of the rebels? Why is it that no matter how hard he fights, he is no match for the Living King of Hell? God seems to be protecting this man, and all the luck has been given to him.
Zhang Damou could roughly guess what Zhang Yichuan wanted to say. Now that the morale of his troops has collapsed, he will not get any benefits if he continues to fight. Maybe his army will fall apart because of its lack of morale. The only way is to withdraw.
Okay, but is it so easy to retreat? Zhang Damou looked at the north, his heart like a huge boulder, hey, I don’t know how many Yunfu cavalry are on the south bank. It doesn’t need to be many, only three thousand people are needed, it is a force that makes people
The power of headache.
The area near the pier is not suitable for cavalry combat, but after leaving the pier, the flat land is the favorite battlefield of the cavalry. After thinking for a long time, Zhang Damou let out a long sigh and said, "Tell Yuan Ma and others to withdraw to the southwest and enter
The foothills of Xiaozhou Mountain."
"Yeah!" Zhang Yichuan nodded and didn't say anything else. When the battle is like this, who can be willing, let alone Zhang Dashu? But there are unforeseen circumstances in the sky, and even this can't defeat the living King of Hell, and time is also fate.
!
The peasant army withdrew, but what Zhang Damou was worried about still happened. As the peasant army began to retreat, a group of cavalry caught up from behind. Although Orger only had more than 2,000 cavalry in his hands, he was confident that he could
It brought painful memories to the peasant army. More than 2,000 cavalrymen chased more than 30,000 peasant troops. It seemed unreasonable, but in fact it was very reasonable. Now the peasant army has no intention of fighting, and no one
If you are willing to stay and block the enemy's rear, then the person running at the back will have no choice but to admit it is unlucky.
After chasing all the way to the west side of Xiaoshan Mountain, Orger stopped. Looking at the steep foothills in front of him, Orger turned around and went back.
Zhang Damou felt very uncomfortable on Mount Lu. He fled all the way. Thousands of his brothers became the dead souls of the Yun Mansion cavalry. Many people were separated from the main force. Now there are only more than 20,000 defeated soldiers who entered Mount Laoshan. At this time,
Zhang Damou also knew very well that when he decided to evacuate to Xiaoshan, he was destined to abandon Mianchi. Mianchi could not go back, and the next step was to join the army led by the king.
The Living King of Hell is really my nemesis. I have fought against him so many times, but I have not gained any advantage, and this time I have lost an army. What is even more frightening is that the morale of Zhang Yichuan and others under his command has been shattered. You can tell by looking at their eyes.
, Zhang Yichuan, Wei Yang and others are afraid of the Living King of Hell from the bottom of their hearts. It is almost a dream to expect these people to confront the Living King of Hell in the future.
.......
At the South Camp of the Peasant Army, the two armies finally completed their rendezvous. After Ding Luyan met someone, he quickly asked about Tie Mo's whereabouts. When he found Tie Mo, Ding Luyan didn't know what to say. At this time, Tie Mo
He was dressed in a military uniform, covered in blood, his helmet was thrown away, and his hair was disheveled. Ding Luyan even wondered if this was the governor of the three provinces. How could any governor personally go into battle to kill the enemy?
Also, Tie Mo is too young, which makes Ding Luyan feel a little weird. It's really embarrassing for someone in his forties to report to a young man in his twenties. But Ding Luyan also
Don't be jealous. Tie Mo is where he is today because of his swords and spears. I heard that when the Yun Mansion army rose to Zhang Bei, the court didn't give him any money or food, and it was all Tie Mo's fault.
Even Governor Sun valued young people like this very highly and accepted him as a closed-door student. Therefore, the fact that he could serve as the governor of three provinces at such a young age was due to his strength.
"General Ding Luyan, the commander-in-chief of Henan Province, is here to see the superintendent!" Ding Luyan straightened his clothes and bowed respectfully.
Tie Mo threw the knife to Zhou Dingshan, stepped forward to hold it up, and said with a smile: "It turned out to be Commander Ding. It's really thanks to Commander Ding that he arrived in time this time, otherwise the commander would have returned to the north bank in despair.
Find another way."
"The Superintendent is ridiculous. The general has only done his duty. His efforts are meager and not worth mentioning. The reason why the traitors can retreat is mainly due to the strong combat power of the troops and horses under the Superintendent's command. In such an unfavorable situation, the Superintendent can rely on this
Soldiers and horses have been able to resist the bandits for so long, which is the most admirable thing!"
Tie Mo narrowed his eyes and secretly praised in his heart. This Ding Luyan is very good at talking and knows the current affairs. After a few words of greeting, the two sides gathered their troops and ordered Bei'an to transport all the troops, horses and supplies. There are few.
The peasant army made trouble, but this time crossing the river became extremely smooth.
Returning to Nan'an again, Hai Lanzhu's eyes changed when she looked at Tie Mo. There was no one around, so she scratched Tie Mo's chest and joked: "I really don't know what to say to you. In this situation, you can't stand it anymore."
Carrying it down."
"Haha, I can only say that we were very lucky. Ding Luyan led his men to sneak attack the rear of the rebels in time. If the rebels hadn't been in chaos, we wouldn't have had the chance to repel them!"
"Hmm? How about this Ding Luyan? I heard you say before that Hangu Pass doesn't have many troops except for troops. How dare he bring troops here?"
"Ding Luyan is flexible, courageous, and very aware of current affairs. He can be used. As for him leading troops to rush for reinforcements, it is not surprising. He probably understands the current situation. If we retreat to the north bank, there will be nothing we can do for a while.
Entering Henan Prefecture, 80% of Hangu Pass cannot be defended. The main force of Wang Ziyong is not going to Xiaozhou to go shopping, most of them will take a detour to attack Hangu Pass."
"Sending troops to help us will not only make us a good friend, but also guarantee that we will have peace of mind. It is worth taking some risks! He should be the first to send troops for a sneak attack. With my relationship with His Majesty, as long as he writes to the court, he will benefit a lot.
of!"
In short, Ding Luyan is a very shrewd person, he knows how to advance and retreat, and understands current affairs. He is worth using. "Beauty, please send someone to pay attention to Xia Ding Luyan and establish relations. If we don't have to rely on Xia Ding Lu in the future in Henan,
What about the power of words?”
"Don't worry, since I want to use him, I will send someone to pay attention." Hai Lanzhu's smile was full of confidence. As long as Ding Luyan is interested, he is not afraid of not being able to win over him. As the commander-in-chief of Henan, Ding Luyan must have some power.
With his help, it won't be that difficult to open up the situation in Henan.
The purpose of coming to Henan this time is not just to fight, but mainly to radiate industry to the Central Plains. The Central Plains has always been a place where Shanxi merchants cannot intervene. There are too many inherent forces here, and they are very xenophobic. This time the bandits
Invading the Central Plains is an opportunity.
...
The plan to cross the river was almost in progress, and the next step was to capture Mianchi. Tie Mo was not worried about Mianchi, because the county seat was almost within easy reach.
Ding Luyan was also present at the impromptu military meeting. Tie Mo said bluntly: "General Ding, how is the situation in Henan Province now?"
"Returning to the Supervisor, not long ago the rogue bandit Zhang Xianzhong broke into Yinchuan, occupied Funiu Mountain, and looted Fangzhou. Now Zhang Xianzhong is entrenched in the Funiu Mountain area. In addition, after Gao Yingxiang's troops captured Nanyang Prefecture, their reputation was great, and responders gathered.
Now a force of 140,000 has been gathered. A few days ago, Li Yangchun led his troops into Ruzhou. In order to prevent the rogue bandits from moving north, almost all the troops in Henan Prefecture were transferred to Ruzhou. However, the southern part of Ruzhou was still captured by the rogue bandits!
"
Tie Mo frowned, "When did the rogue bandits become so capable? In just a few days, they took over half of Ruzhou."
As soon as these words came out, Ding Luyan looked embarrassed. In fact, he knew better than anyone else that it was not that the rogues were more capable of fighting, but that the soldiers at the Henan Guard were so bad that they almost collapsed at the first touch.
