The Jurchens' attack became more and more fierce! Wanyan Aguda led 2,000 personal guards at the front. These 2,000 people were the 2,000 people from Wanyan's tribe who had joined him in raising troops. They can be said to be the most elite force in the Jurchen army.
, each one can equal ten!
The battle lasted less than half a quarter of an hour, and before Tiefu Tu came up from behind, Sun Li's army had already begun to collapse.
Sun Li himself was so shocked that he fell to the ground. Seeing that the horse's hoof was about to fall on him, a Liangshan soldier next to him rushed toward the horse desperately. The soldier stopped the horse with both hands, and then the soldier
He was kicked by a horse's hoof, and the horses from behind kept rushing towards him, causing the soldier to bleed from all his orifices, but he still had relief in his eyes until he died. No matter what, he temporarily saved Sun Li's life.
"Zhao Ming!" Sun Li had already stood up. He yelled crazily, his voice full of anger and sadness.
"Ah!" He turned around and slashed wildly! But although he killed two Jurchens, more Jurchens were still coming in this direction!
Soldiers fell down in rows, and Sun Li's eyes were filled with tears. He was surrounded by dozens of Jurchens, and his strength was almost exhausted, but he was still drawing the sword desperately.
"Liangshan is undefeated! I will not be defeated! I will not be defeated!" He shouted again and cut off the enemy in front of him. Then he got on his horse and fought with the Jurchens on the horse.
But everything he saw with his eyes made him despair! Less than half of his soldiers were left now, and the remaining half were fighting on their own! The Jurchens continued to attack, and I was afraid that the remaining soldiers would soon be dead.
! Some soldiers have retreated involuntarily, and Yang Lin's army is beginning to show signs of collapse at this moment! This battle is about to fail!
The Iron Buddha is still coming this way, but before they can come, his army will be finished.
"Reinforcements! Reinforcements!" Suddenly a faint voice came from a distance, and Sun Li thought he had heard it wrong.
But soon, he felt the changes in the Jurchen army. The Jurchen army's attack seemed to slow down, and many Jurchen soldiers looked to the east.
Sun Li cut down a Jurchen soldier next to him. He also looked to the east, and saw smoke and dust rising from the east, and countless cavalry rushing towards this direction.
"Reinforcements? Really reinforcements?" Sun Li couldn't believe it, but soon he began to laugh loudly.
However, at this moment, a Jurchen soldier on the opposite side slashed his left arm with a knife. Sun Li screamed, then gritted his teeth and cut off the Jurchen soldier on the opposite side.
"***, I accidentally got another wound!" Sun Li felt weak in his left hand and couldn't help but curse.
****
Wanyan Aguda was extremely depressed at this moment. He was about to succeed in his attack, but reinforcements from Liangshan arrived again! This time the reinforcements arrived in huge numbers, probably around 50,000 people.
He originally had 90,000 men, but after fighting for days and nights, he only had 70,000 men left! And after fighting for such a long time, his army had long been exhausted. With these 70,000 tired troops, he could
It is impossible to wipe out all the infantry and then deal with 50,000 light cavalry and 10,000 heavy cavalry.
He felt extremely unwilling. The war was about to be won. Why did the enemy's reinforcements appear again?
"Your Majesty, what should we do? Should we rush forward?" Wanyan Hanben, who had been following Wanyan Aguda, frowned at this moment.
"If we rush forward, we will lose both sides, and it is not good for us! We can no longer afford the consumption!" Wanyan Aguda gritted his teeth and said.
His heart was bleeding at this moment. So many soldiers had died, but now they were unable to complete the battle. Even the infantry in front of him had not been completely wiped out. There were still half of the infantry!
"Your Majesty!" Seeing that Wanyan Aguda had not spoken for a long time, Wanyan Hanben spoke again to remind Wanyan Aguda to make an early decision.
"Let's retreat!" Wanyan Agu said.
"What? Retreat?" Wanyan Hanben couldn't believe it.
"Not bad! Back off!" Wanyan Aguda said loudly.
He doesn't want to do this, but he must do it now.
The Jurchens finally retreated. With mountains to the north, Tiefu Tu to the south, and reinforcements from Liangshan to the east, they retreated toward the west.
Soon, a quarter of an hour later, reinforcements from Liangshan arrived here.
Sun Li rode up to meet him with a smile on his face.
Fortunately, the moonlight was bright on the battlefield, so the reinforcements on the opposite side did not regard him as a Jurchen, otherwise their bows and arrows would have been fired long ago.
"Brother Luan, is that you?" Sun Li shouted loudly.
"Brother Sun Li! How are you doing now?" Luan Tingyu, commander of the Fourth Army, came out of the army and said with a smile.
"No, very bad! We suffered heavy losses in this battle. I'm afraid our Second Army will be reduced by half! Our comrades from Hedong also suffered heavy losses, no less than us!" Sun Lidao.
"You pack up the army and catch up from behind. We are chasing the Jurchens now!" Luan Tingyu said before he could say more.
"Okay!" Sun Li shouted loudly.
Although the army suffered heavy losses this time and the army collapsed by the end, the fighting will of each soldier has not decreased at all! They will continue to fight even if they fight alone! At this moment, they still dare to pursue the enemy and dare to fight with them.
The enemy fights again!
Luan Tingyu's army had gone far, and Sun Li returned to his own army.
He has ordered the soldiers to assemble urgently!
Countless division commanders, regiment commanders, and battalion commanders were killed! If the division commander dies, the deputy division commander will take over! If the deputy division commander also dies, the commander of the first regiment will serve as the acting division commander. If the commander of the first regiment also dies,
Then let the commander of the second regiment take over! By analogy, each army quickly found its own leader! Liang
The mountain army system is extremely perfect. Even if all the leadership teams in the army are disabled, the entire army will reorganize a leadership team in the shortest time! This is completely different from the Song Dynasty army where the soldiers do not know the generals and the generals do not know the soldiers.
, Just talking about the military system, this is already the most advanced military system in this era.
"Points for each division and regiment, and statistics of casualties!" Sun Lida said.
"yes!"
After only a quarter of an hour, the statistical results were reported.
The Second Army of the Northern Army had 50,000 men, and now only 25,000 men were left, of which 5,000 were seriously injured.
"Leave a thousand brothers to take care of the seriously wounded, and the rest will follow me to pursue the Jurchens! They have killed so many of our comrades, and we must fight them desperately!" Sun Li said in a hoarse voice.
"Desperate!" At this moment, every soldier clenched the weapons in their hands hard, and everyone's eyes flashed with the light of revenge.
The Second Army began to take action again. They marched quickly towards the front. Some of them were eating and drinking water from their skins while moving forward. Only in this way could they replenish some physical strength.
Beside them, Yang Lin's army from Hedong has also gathered, and they are also rushing towards the west.
****
Further west, 150 miles away, Yang Xiong and Yang Zhi's armies were constantly heading east.
Yang Xiong's army is in the northwest, and Yang Zhi's army is in the southwest. The distance between the two armies is about ten miles.
Wu Dong and Hua Rong were in Yang Xiong's army. Yang Xiong was Hua Rong's direct descendant and did not discount Hua Rong's orders. Hua Rong liked him the most, so during the past marches, Hua Rong was always with Yang Xiong. Wu Dong was on the battlefield.
Above, he follows Hua Rong. Wherever Hua Rong is, he is also there.
"I wonder how the battle over there is going? We have to hurry over and try to besiege Wanyan Aguda!" Wu Dong said.
"At the beginning, in order to prevent the Jurchens from suspecting, only Sun Li and the others were there, but there was Yang Lin's troops at the foot of Wuding Mountain. Even so, they must have suffered heavy losses now! But as long as the Jurchens can be eliminated,
Really, it's worth it," Hua Rong said.
"That's right." Wu Dong nodded.
"Grand Governor, on the battlefield, you must pay attention to your own safety." Hua Rong looked at Wu Dong and said suddenly.
"Haha, I have so many people protecting me, what should I be afraid of?" Wu Dong smiled lightly and said.
He actually wanted to take action personally, but the habits of the Han people were different from those of the ethnic minorities in the north. The Han people believed that the son of a rich man would not sit down, and there was absolutely no reason for the leader of a country to take action in person. Even if Wu Dong wanted to go to the battlefield to kill the enemy in person, he
Neither do my generals.
Agreed. Those "personal expeditions" in ancient times were only when the emperor rushed to the front line. The emperor would not even come to the battlefield in person, let alone kill the enemy with his own hands. People like Wu Dong who followed the army to fight in the east and west were already far away.
It went beyond the behavioral scope of ordinary Han kings.
"Tell the soldiers that I, Wu Dong, am with them! In this battle, I, Liangshan, will use all our strength to deal with the Jurchen remnants. This battle will be won!" Wu Dong said.
Wu Dong's words were quickly conveyed, and there were bursts of cheers among the soldiers! His status in Liangshan was no different from Wanyan Aguda's status in Jurchen. With months of propaganda and offensive, the military and civilians were
He continued to be deified personally, and his status almost surpassed that of Wanyan Aguda.
The soldiers' marching speed became faster again at this moment, almost running forward.
After a while, the spies from the front came running back and said that the Jurchens were coming this way.
"In which direction are they?" Hua Rong asked hurriedly.
"They are due east," the spy said.
"How far is it from here?" Hua Rong asked again.
"Only more than twenty miles! The road ahead is a bit bumpy. I'm afraid it will take some time to get there," the spy said.
The Jurchens were not familiar with the roads, and some of these spies had been here for a long time, so they could come quickly to report the information.
"Order Yang Zhi's army to move closer here immediately. Everyone should move softly and don't be discovered! Yang Xiong, your Third Army's Fourth Division and Fifth Division go north and look for a remote place to ambush! The First Division
, the second division, and the third division are here to stop the enemy!" Hua Rong said.
In Yang Xiong's army, the fourth and fifth divisions are archers and crossbowmen. They are all in the north at this moment. Yang Xiong's army is in the front, and Yang Zhi's army is coming towards the north.
The battlefield emphasizes adaptability. Over the years, Hua Rong has made continuous progress. Such adaptability has become his instinct. In an instant, countless orders were passed on, and the entire army of 100,000 people began to move quickly. But everyone
They all walk softly and will not make too much noise to be discovered by the enemy.
Yang Xiong's 30,000 infantrymen from three divisions have stopped. They are taking a short rest here, waiting for the enemy to arrive.
