The cavalry can only march about 120 miles a day and a night.

A forced march like this is unsustainable.

Just like it is okay for a person to stay up late occasionally, but if you continue to stay up late, you will definitely die.

Guo Hao marched nearly 180 miles in a hurry that day and night. The soldiers were actually very sleepy, but as soon as they arrived on the battlefield, they became excited.

Guo Hao came very quickly, basically giving Jin Jun no time to react.

First, a thousand soldiers and horses were divided to block the Jin army's retreat, and then two thousand cavalry quickly rushed towards the Jin army.

Because he knew that his infantry was almost reaching its limit, and if he didn't take action, something big might happen.

The sky gradually turned from dark to deep blue.

The outline of the grassland gradually emerged, like a huge carpet under the dark blue sky, stretching to the end of the sky.

A group of cavalry that rushed all night cut through the wind and waves of the grassland and quickly headed south.

Not long after, the tranquility of the grassland was broken by the intensive sound of iron hooves.

By the time he could react, the Song Army's cavalry had already pounced.

The Jin army could only fight in a hurry.

The result of rushing into battle is to be defeated and defeated.

In the chaos, Yiyi led his people to flee eastward, but was intercepted and killed again by the Song army who had been waiting for a long time.

As a result, half of the 3,000-strong Jin army on the road were killed, and more than 1,000 to 300 people were captured. Only more than 100 people actually escaped.

It means that I was captured.

After the battle was over, Guo Hao immediately reorganized his troops and retreated southward overnight, back to Dongsheng Prefecture.

More than 2,000 fine war horses were captured in this battle, which was definitely a great harvest for Anbei Prefecture, which was in its initial stage of development.

But the bigger gain was learning the strategic purpose of Pucha Shi's slaves from Zhehe's mouth.

On July 27, the main force of the Song Army retreated to Dongsheng Prefecture.

Alashu was drinking tea in the tent.

Kamachin said: "Chief, if you go further west, you may have to enter the core area of ​​the Xixia people. There may be something wrong."

"When the Song and Jin Dynasties are finished, you can visit the Jin camp."

"What does the leader mean?"

"It is still necessary to maintain a good relationship with the Jin people." Ala Hushu said, "Once the Song and Jin Dynasties go to war, it will be impossible for the Song Army to defeat the Jin Army on the grassland, but the Jin Army will inevitably suffer a lot.

The loss to us will then be smaller, our role will be more prominent, and the Jin people will not touch us rashly. When the time comes, you can go to Jin camp, say hello to Jin Ting on my behalf, and test the tone."

"The leader is wise."

Kamachin really admires him. Ala Hushu managed to thrive in the Song and Jin Dynasties by taking one step at a time and counting three steps at a time.

"It is basically impossible for the Song people to gain a foothold at the southern foot of Yinshan Mountain. Even if they invest a large amount of troops, it will not be possible for less than ten years." A Lahu lost continued, "We must continue to deceive the Song army.

It will be of great benefit to us to send troops to consume the Jin army and at the same time obtain tea from the Song people."

"Gao! The leader is really wise!"

At this time, a voice suddenly came from outside: "Report! There is an urgent report ahead!"

"Enter!"

"Chief, a thousands-sized cavalry force of the Jin Army was defeated by the Song Army, and the entire army was wiped out!"

Alashu was shocked: "What did you say! The Jin army was defeated?"

"Yes!"

"Is this information true?"

The scout said: "We have personally inspected it. It is right by the Yellow River."

"How many troops does the Jin Army have?"

"At least three thousand cavalry."

"Three thousand cavalry!"

Three thousand cavalry is already quite large.

"Where are the rest of the battlefields?"

"The remaining battlefields are not known yet."

Kamachin said: "It is incredible that the Song Army was able to defeat the powerful Jin Army so quickly in a short period of time."

In the hearts of these grassland people, the Jin Army was invincible. The powerful Liao Kingdom was completely wiped out by the Jin Army.

Yelu Dashi organized several counterattacks on the grassland, but with little effect.

Jin Wushu conquered the Mongol people in the west and defeated the Mongol cavalry many times.

These people on the grassland can only bow their heads obediently in front of the Kingdom of Jin.

As for the Central Plains Dynasty, in their understanding, they have only dared to shrink to the south for hundreds of years.

Who could have expected that the Song Army would win the first battle.

"Is the strength of the Song Army much stronger than that of the Jin Army?" A Lahu lost began to think again.

"What now?" Kamachin asked.

At this time, another voice came from outside: "Report! Chief, the Song envoy is here!"

"Why did the Song Dynasty come to our place at this time?"

Alashu said: "They must be here to ask us to send troops!"

He was right. After the news arrived in Dongsheng Prefecture, Yu Yunwen asked Liu Yi to hurry up overnight and rush to the place where Alahu was missing.

The Song Army defeated the Jin Army, and its political significance was far greater than its war significance.

When Liu Yi came in, he walked as if he didn't recognize his relatives, and there was only one word on his face: I'm really good at riding horses!

"Chief." Liu Yi said.

"The envoy of the Song Dynasty came from afar and was unable to meet him from afar. I'm sorry, I'm sorry."

"Chief, if we don't speak secretly, are we allies?"

Alashushe hesitated for a moment and said, "Of course it is."

"Now the Jin army is coming to the west, trying to destroy our trade lines. When the emperor learned that, Lei Lei was furious. One hundred thousand soldiers of our Song Dynasty have gathered in Fuzhou and are preparing to go north for a decisive battle with the Jin army."

A La suddenly said: "The Great Song Dynasty is mighty!"

Liu Yi looked at Ala Hushu with a smile.

He did not say that our army had defeated the Jin army. He believed that the old fox Ala Hushu must be paying attention to the battlefield.

Not saying it is more of a deterrent than telling it.

"Since we are allies, does the leader also want to send troops to join forces with us to fight against the golden thieves?"

"this……"

"Does the leader think that maintaining our common trade is only the responsibility of the Song Dynasty?"

Liu Yi's questions were very direct.

"Of course not."

"When will the leader send out how many troops?" Liu Yi said immediately, "I can go back and resume my duties so that I can prepare early."

"This is a big deal, I have to think about it carefully."

"What else does the leader have to fear?"

"I'm not afraid at all."

"The leader is worried about offending the Kingdom of Jin?" Liu Yi said with great confidence, "Are you not worried about offending the Song Dynasty?"

"this……"

Liu Yi said sharply: "Then please give me an answer from the leader so that I can go back and resume my life. Should I continue to make money with me, the Song Dynasty, or should I become the enemy of the Song Dynasty?"

"I admire the etiquette, righteousness, benevolence and trust of the Chinese very much. I admire the Chinese as the water of the Yellow River flows endlessly." A Lahu lost sincerely and said, "I am not sending troops because I can ally with the Song Dynasty. Making money comes out of sincerity and sincerely wants to help the Song Dynasty. Please understand this, Ambassador Song."

"When will the leader plan to send out how many troops?"

"In five days, we will gather 10,000 cavalry and join forces with the Song Dynasty to attack the Jin Dynasty!"

Liu Yi hurried back to resume his life.
Chapter completed!
