Chapter 186: All the way forward
----------
The 10,000-strong Western Army was defeated and fled in all directions. "Please familiarize yourself with the domain name."
Qu Duan had also escaped at this moment, and he was extremely shocked. The previous failure in street fighting could be attributed to the enemy's understanding of the terrain, or the enemy was more suitable for street fighting, but now such a head-on field battle had failed, which he really couldn't accept.
"Hurry up and call the commander-in-chief and get out of here." Qu Duan only had this thought now.
Yue Fei was still leading the army to charge forward at this moment. He was paying attention to the situation around him while charging. After a while, Yue Fei suddenly said: "Charge over there with me!"
Zhang Xian was stunned and said: "Brother, what is that dark place over there?"
Yue Fei said: "That's where the coach of the Western Army must be. Look, there are torches around him, but there are no torches over there. I think it's because I'm afraid of exposing the coach's position. My judgment shouldn't be wrong.
Yes, come with me."
At this moment, Yue Fei's soldiers and horses have been divided into three parts. Lu Fang and Guo Sheng each led a brigade of troops to kill the exhausted troops in the surrounding areas, while Yue Fei led Zhang Xian and Yang Lin and rushed towards the position of the central army.
Sure enough, as soon as they arrived here, they encountered a strong blockage. Although they defeated the new force of the Western Army, the enemy still had a small force of fresh troops in the position of the central army, and they were all composed of warriors with extremely high martial arts skills.
Yue Fei rushed forward in person. The spear in his hand swept across the field, and countless Western soldiers fell. At this moment, he also had many wounds on his body. However, the more he fought, the braver he became, and he gradually maximized his marksmanship. There was no more
Together they will.
He was originally a martial arts genius, what he lacked was experience and murderous intent. He killed countless enemies in this battle, so what he lacked has been made up for. With his talent, given time, it is possible to even surpass Lin Chong.
In a short period of time, the Western soldiers blocking the front began to collapse, and Yue Fei's soldiers and horses rushed into the central army, as if they were in a deserted land.
"Commander, escape from here quickly!" Qu Duan knelt in front of Zhong Shidao and said extremely anxiously.
"No, I can't leave! If I leave here and the army has no one to command, it will be a mess and the war will definitely be completely lost." Zhong Shidao shook his head without hesitation.
"But if the commander doesn't leave and is killed by the enemy, then we will lose this war! Why don't we leave here first, then sort out the remaining troops, and then fight them to the death!" Qu Duan begged bitterly.
Unfortunately, no matter what he said, Zhong Shidao just refused to leave. At this moment, the distance between Yue Fei's troops and horses was getting closer and closer, and Qu Duan could even see Yue Fei, the young man who was rushing at the front.
At this point, Qu Duan no longer hesitated. He suddenly stretched out his hand and cut Zhong Shidao on his neck. Zhong Shidao fainted immediately, and then Qu Duan picked up Zhong Shidao and ran away away.
.
Yue Fei's soldiers and horses charged through the Chinese army for a while. When they arrived at the largest tent, it was completely empty and there was not a single person left inside.
"Brother, it seems that the head coach of the Song Army has escaped." Zhang Xiandao.
"Let's continue chasing!" Yue Fei said.
"Continue to pursue the Song Army coach?" Zhang Xiandao.
"Not bad! All the way south!" Yue Fei said.
At that moment, Yue Fei immediately gathered his troops. After all the soldiers from the three brigades were assembled, the army headed south overnight and continued to chase Zhong Shidao and his party.
By the time Yue Fei had just left, Lin Chong had already led the soldiers and horses in the city to rush here. On the battlefield, the Western Army had completely collapsed, and the Liangshan soldiers and horses were shouting "surrender without killing".
Countless soldiers of the Western Army fell to their knees on the ground, terrified that they would face an unknown fate.
Lin Chong rode past these people on horseback. Along the way, he was extremely happy in his heart. He had already guessed that this was the result of Yue Fei's action. Yue Fei tolerated it for ten days, but this time he made a move that defeated the Western Army. Seizing the opportunity
His ability is quite extraordinary.
"Where is Yue Fei? Where has he gone?" Lin rushed away for a while and couldn't help but ask.
"Commander, he seems to have led his troops to hunt down the enemy." Several soldiers nearby said.
"This kid, doesn't he know the principle of not pursuing a poor enemy?" Lin Chong frowned and said secretly.
After thinking carefully for a while, Lin Chong sent 50,000 men south to meet Yue Fei to prevent him from being in danger.
These 50,000 people traveled all night, and there were broken troops of the Western Army everywhere along the way. When these broken troops saw the Liangshan army, they surrendered one after another, and were then taken to the rear by the Liangshan soldiers.
When the sky was about to dawn, they came to Jiangzhou between Jinning and Puzhou. This is a county town. There were originally garrison troops from the imperial court, but when they arrived, they found that the city gates here were wide open and there were more than 100 Liangshan.
The soldiers are here.
It turns out that Yue Fei had already captured this place when he came, leaving 100 people here, waiting for the Liangshan army to arrive to take over the city.
The 50,000 people continued to move forward, and when they arrived at Longmen, they found that this place had been captured by Yue Fei. But Yue Fei continued to move forward, so the 50,000 people continued to move forward.
It was the dark night of the second day. The Western Army fled very fast and had already arrived in front of Puzhou City. They were hesitating whether to enter the city when Yue Fei's army unexpectedly caught up with them again.
"General Yue, Puzhou City is ahead," Yang Lin said.
"Put on the military uniforms of the Song Army, and then we will go in." Yue Fei said.
I don’t know how many Western Army soldiers died along the way, and there were countless Western Army uniforms along the way. At this moment, Yue Fei didn’t look much, and found more than 300 sets of military uniforms in half a quarter of an hour. Then Yue Fei personally put on the Western Army uniforms and took 300 sets of military uniforms with him.
Many people hurried into the broken army and rushed towards Puzhou City.
"Kill!" He shouted loudly as soon as he arrived in Puzhou City, and first attacked the Puzhou soldiers guarding the city gate. Those Puzhou soldiers had no defense at all, and they became one for a while!
When the shouts of killing came from here, Yang Lin, Lu Fang, and Guo Sheng led the rest of the troops and rushed towards the Puzhou city gate!
"Oh no, the Liangshan bandits are here!" The defenders of Puzhou City were in a mess. These defenders were not as good as the Western Army, and their quality was extremely poor. At this moment, they rushed towards the city one after another, and Puzhou City was suddenly lost.
Master Zhong said that Qu Duan had arrived in Puzhou City. When they heard the news that the city gate had been lost, they were shocked.
"Commander, let's escape from here now!" Qu Duan said anxiously.
During this nightlong journey, he became more and more frightened, so he no longer wanted to stay here. He just wanted to go back to the northwest. Once there, he would be truly safe.
"No, if you run away now, you will give up Puzhou City to the other party. From now on, the entire land east of Hedong, except Taiyuan, will be the territory of the Liangshan bandits." Zhong Shidao shook his head.
"Then what should we do?" Qu Duan asked.
"We also fight them in the streets! We still have tens of thousands of soldiers, plus the defenders of Puzhou City, so we are not afraid of them in street battles!" Master Zhong said.
"But...the soldiers are already scared!" Qu Duan said with a wry smile.
"Tell the soldiers! As long as I can defeat the enemy, I will definitely ask the emperor for rewards for them! By the way, open the warehouse in Puzhou Mansion, take out the silver, and distribute it to the soldiers now!" Master Zhong said.
If the imperial army is okay when it wins, but if it wants to make the soldiers persevere when it loses, then the only thing they can get is large sums of rewards!
The two of them were still discussing how to persist when suddenly a soldier came over and said: "Commander, the soldiers ran away from the south gate one after another and trampled countless people to death!"
Zhong Shidao felt dizzy and groggy, and immediately fell to the ground. Qu Duan hugged Zhong Shidao, and rushed outside with Zhong Shidao.
By the time Liangshan's 50,000 soldiers and horses arrived, Yue Fei had disappeared, leaving only Puzhou City. After these 50,000 soldiers and horses took over Puzhou City, they realized that Yue Fei was pursuing Fenglingdu in the south.
passed.
Fenglingdu is the largest ferry on the Yellow River and one of the most important ferry crossings in ancient times. It connects Hedong, Henan and Guanzhong. It has been a battleground for military strategists from ancient times to the present.
During the Northern Song Dynasty, this place was still one of the most important commercial hubs of the Song Dynasty. There were countless merchants here. Even though the Hedong War was taking place during this period, the number of merchants did not decrease at all.
"I heard that the imperial army was encircling and suppressing the Liangshan bandits. I wonder how the battle is going?" A traveling merchant carrying a pole sat at a tea stall and asked the stall owner about the situation.
"I don't know about this, but the imperial court's 200,000 troops are all elites of the Western Army. It shouldn't be much of a problem to conquer those bandits," the stall owner said.
"I heard that there were no excessive taxes and miscellaneous taxes in the areas ruled by the Liangshan bandits. I don't know whether it is true or not?" the traveler asked again.
"This is true. The Liangshan bandits distributed all Tian Hu's fields to the people, and they can be called righteous thieves. Their leader was the famous 'Timely Rain', and many people went there one after another.
Here." said the stall owner.
The two of them were talking here, and another young man next to him, who seemed to be a businessman, said: "Those who are thieves, I'm afraid the court will not let them go?"
The stall owner looked at the man and said with a smile: "This is natural. What good will happen to a person who is a thief?"
The three of them were talking, when suddenly there was a huge mess in front of them, and countless businessmen and clerks were running towards it like crazy.
"What happened?" The young man hurriedly grabbed an old man and asked.
"Ouch, Liangshan's army is about to attack! Run away quickly!" The old man said anxiously while pushing his hand away.
"What? The army of Liangshan is coming?" The young man, the merchant carrying the pole, and the owner of the tea stall were all shocked and in disbelief.
"I just came from Puzhou Prefecture. Puzhou Prefecture has been captured by the Liangshan army. I'm afraid they will come to Fenglingdu soon!" The old man said while wiping his sweat.
The three young men were stunned, and then the three of them immediately ran away.
By the afternoon, there was a commotion in the distance, and countless soldiers were running towards us.
