Eight hundred and eighty-fifth chapter same year, same month, same day
Yutouzhu is a small village, with dozens of households originally living there. There is also an earthen fence surrounding the village to protect it from bandits and thieves. Fortunately, Tonan Le came out and it was peaceful. The village has never been exposed to weapons.
However, the peaceful time finally ended. When King Liang and his group entered Hongqiu Lake, the bandits entered the village. The meager resistance of the entire village was of no avail. The ground was immediately covered with blood and corpses were lying on the ground.
Now this is the residence of a general under King Dingyang. After killing all the villagers here, these bandits unceremoniously regarded this village as their home.
In the middle of the night, Bai Guang huddled up and hid behind the fence, whistling in the cold wind, which was freezing to the bone. Only a fool would stand upright on the fence. Although he was one of the police sentries tonight, was there anyone who did this?
Him alone?
It was so cold that even the lit fire didn't seem so hot anymore.
Suddenly, the flames began to tremble randomly. This was not a swaying motion caused by the wind, but a bouncing feeling.
Kneel down on the ground, put your ears to the ground, listen, listen carefully: that is the sound of horses' hooves, the vibration of a large group of horses trampling the earth!
Bai Guang has been a veteran bandit for three or four years. He has experienced the attack on Zibo during the heyday of the three Liang kings. They have forgotten the feeling of a large group of cavalry gathering to charge. They rolled their eyes, and there was fear in their eyes.
The three kings all have cavalry, but they should not appear at this place at this time. This is an enemy attack, it is Han people, it is Hedong cavalry——
"kill!"
We were only three to five miles away from the bandit camp, and the traces could no longer be hidden. Wang Guang shouted loudly, and everyone shouted in unison, and torches lit up. Like stars flashing across the sky, thousands of troops and horses were seen outside Yutou Zhu.
Coming roaring to kill!
Such movement, of course, alarmed everyone in the village. Bai Guang had seen the big world. He took a breath and looked at the low earth fence again. He consciously told him that the camp he was in would not be able to survive.
hit.
Besides, judging by the torches, there are tens of thousands of cavalry here!
"How...how is this possible?"
The sound of galloping horse hooves also told him that the enemy's elite cavalry was coming to attack the village gate. Therefore, he did not have much time to judge whether the number of officers and soldiers was true or false. He only thought of one sentence and then shouted: "Go to the wall of the village, everyone will go to the village..."
…”
While shouting, he ran down from the fence. The bandits in front of him were a little panicked. He kicked those who were blocking him and continued to run inside while yelling.
There were commotions on all sides, and the bandits were running around like headless flies, shouting "The Han army is coming to kill" everywhere. This made the people of Yutouzhu panic and had no fighting spirit at all.
The earthen wall was really rustic. Wang Guang's current Zuoying elite cleared the entire table with a few arrows, and then dozens of strong men swarmed in front of the door. Within a moment, the wooden door was smashed to pieces!
Only 500 of the 6,000 fine cavalry rushed in. The game of horseback riding and slashing lasted for more than two quarters of an hour. After the last bandit who dared to resist was hacked to death, only the cavalry commander remained in front of him.
Qianduo, who knelt down and shivered, was captured.
At this time, Wang Guang had already led his troops deeper into Hongqiu Lake!
Bai Guang and Liu Junfeng's faces were full of fear. The two relied entirely on supporting each other to prevent them from falling.
"Where...where is this?" Liu Junfeng asked blankly.
"Who knows, they are still in Hongqiu Lake anyway. How did those stupid Han troops become so stubborn and chased us for a full hour!"
I ran here on horseback from Yutouzhu. After running for more than a quarter of an hour, I was caught up by the Han army who was killing me. I don’t know how the Han army’s horses ran so fast. The Baiguang people were clever. They dismounted and hid in the woods with Liu Junfeng.
.
At first, we only saw large Han troops galloping past, but soon we found that one of the Han troops had left behind and was conducting a net-like search.
Bai Guang and Liu Junfeng fled. It was pitch dark at night, and all they could do was avoid the torches behind them, and keep running forward, forward, and forward.
Usually when fighting with officers and soldiers, even if they lose, the officers and soldiers will focus on looting instead of chasing them with all their strength. But this time, the Han cavalry followed them like a shadow, and Bai Guang and Liu Junfeng found that there were more and more companions around them.
.
Naturally, they didn't know that after the small groups of Han cavalry dispersed, multiple cavalry teams drove away the fleeing bandits, then gathered them, and then the troops followed up and encircled them. If there were any who couldn't escape, they would kill them with swords.
Killing, so all the way down, the bandits could hear the screams before death behind them from time to time. And the screams in the darkness brought great fear to the bandits. They did not dare to stop at all, and they had no time to carefully judge what was behind them.
Han Army".
There must be tens of thousands, otherwise they would not dare to break into Hongqiu Lake. There are hundreds of thousands of people in the old camp of the three kings.
"Oops, it's here again, run!"
Seeing the torches behind them starting to approach again, and the sound of shouts, gongs, drums, and the most terrifying horns, a group of exhausted people gathered their energy and started running again. Some of them tried to form a formation to defend, but
They were immediately flattened by the chasing cavalry and could not make any waves.
White light is not one of them. There was a camp in Yutouzhu before, but it could not be stabilized, let alone in this dark wilderness!
There were screams again, the sound of those who escaped slowly being killed. Liu Junfeng sighed, when will this kind of escape end?
Then he saw in front of him, there seemed to be dots of fires. At first they thought it was the encircling Han army, so they were desperate and even stopped, but the screams from behind made them step forward again.
He started walking and leaned numbly towards the fire.
He didn't know that in this dark night, they had run around Hongqiu Lake for more than 20 miles, and in the end, exhausted, everyone knelt down and begged for surrender.
"What's going on?"
When King Dingyang heard the noise in the distance, he kicked away his wife, pulled off his clothes and left the house.
Ordinary bandits, in such a cold night, naturally gathered around the fire to keep warm. Those with higher status lived in the houses in the village. Regardless of the appearance, no matter how shabby it was, it was better than a tent. Besides, there was no tent, so they could only
There are also many bandits who build a shed with various rags and ragged mats.
He didn't think it was dangerous. Because his northeast was the Liangwang, and his northwest was the eye of the wind. His place was close to the water, so it was safe. So at first he thought it might be another fight among his men, or a kidnapped woman.
They cried, but after listening carefully, they felt like a roaring camp.
Naturally, the tens of thousands of people under his account could not have gathered together in one place and divided them into three large villages and several small camps to garrison them, because he sent a team of people to stop the camp roar. It was the regular army, and the camp roared.
It's also a big deal. A bandit like him might have a bigger problem if he fails to do so. It would only be a small matter to embarrass him, but it would be a big matter if he is weak. However, the people who were sent out ran back not long after, and the torch
Under the illumination, the man's face was pale.
"What's going on?" King Dingyang was angry.
"Oh no, Your Majesty, it's the Han army, countless Hedong cavalry!" the bandit screamed and reported back.
When he said "Han Army", some of the sleepy bandits immediately shouted: "The Han Army is coming, the Han Army is coming!"
Such shouts quickly spread throughout the camp. It was not originally a roar from the camp, but it turned out to be a roar from the camp. King Dingyang was dumbfounded, and quickly led his followers to protect the main camp. Those who were in a mess even pushed each other.
The subordinates who were scurrying to escape gathered together. But at this moment, the bandits who fled from another village rushed his central army into chaos. Not only that, these defeated bandits also completely killed the Han army.
Sit down.
In the blink of an eye, the entire camp turned into a pot of chaos. These broken soldiers rushed in crying and screaming from outside the camp, making the situation completely out of control.
Even if the camp roar did not occur, King Dingyang knew that he could not restore chaos on this scale, and besides, there was a possibility that the incoming Han army would continue to attack his main camp. At the moment, he could only withdraw first and rely on the two rebels.
The way to resolve the current crisis is to defeat the Han army with my brother's support and then gather the defeated troops.
"This... what the hell is going on!"
While cursing angrily, King Dingyang got on his horse, and then he heard the sound of an attacking horn.
This sound seemed to be chasing souls and killing people. The bandits who broke into the stronghold were like a hornet's nest exploding, screaming: "Han army, they are here again, they are here again!"
Terror spread quickly, and even the faces of King Dingyang and his cronies changed. The main camp was in such a state, and being killed by the Han cavalry, it was not like wind and clouds, but it was like being in an uninhabited land. King Dingyang was so angry that he was killed by a group of bandits.
Wrapped up, he fled toward the northeast.
Horse hooves were coming. The fleeing force quickly swept across the other two camps of King Dingyang. When dawn finally arrived and the sky began to light up, the surrounding fertile fields were filled with rogue bandits who had lost their fighting spirit and fled.
King Daliang had already received the news and knew that the Han cavalry had attacked King Dingyang at night. In just an hour, King Dingyang's tens of thousands of veterans were finished.
Because they were attacked at night, and because Chen Mengren created a great momentum during the attack and lit tens of thousands of torches, every one of the escaped thieves swore that there must be tens of thousands of Han troops.
Public.
When he first received the news, King Liang was still skeptical, thinking that there must be something strange in it. The Han army clearly only had more than 10,000 people entering Nanle, so where did the tens of thousands come from? Did Zhu Biao transfer into the army in the past few days?
However, more and more of King Dingyang's men escaped, and gradually he became certain that the number of Han troops was indeed tens of thousands. If not, how could King Dingyang's old camp of 30,000 to 40,000 men have been able to defend it for even an hour?
Can’t live?
The wind is here.
When Chen Mengren led the right battalion to raid, 30,000 men collapsed in an instant. But what was better than King Dingyang was that Feng Liyan had about 2,000 cavalry in his hands. This was his foundation and the most elite under his command.
force.
Zhu Zhenguo was rampaging through the chaos with more than a hundred soldiers, and unexpectedly he met Feng Liyan. When he saw that Zhu Zhenguo only had thirty riders, Feng Liyan yelled at him. He had two thousand riders and more than a thousand elite infantry.
A, how can you take Zhu Zhenguo, a hundred people, into your eyes?
"The Han dog on the day of the donkey suddenly comes across me and wants to die. Brothers, kill, kill the Han dog, and let out a bad breath first!"
Feng Liyan was wearing the bright light armor and a red cloak, which made him stand out among a group of thieves. Zhu Zhenguo saw him from a distance and raised his spear: "Brothers, have you seen that thief leader? Catch the big fish.
, rush!"
A few hundred iron cavalry rushed towards Feng Liyan like a wind and a cloud. The people around Feng Liyan also tried their best to block it. As a long-standing bandit, the elite soldiers around Feng Liyan were not stupid. The two sides collided with each other.
There was a loud bang, and Zhu Zhenguo and the others' originally overwhelming offensive was suddenly blocked!
If the cavalry loses its impact, its power will be sharply reduced!
Zhu Zhenguo realized this, but had no choice. The opponent almost stopped them with flesh and blood!
Feng Liyan, who was still a little nervous, laughed out loud. In his eyes, the few hundred cavalrymen who were being carried were already a group of dead people. He looked around and said, "Come up with me!"
His voice was not loud, but at the same time as he shouted the word "charge", the man had already driven the horse to "shoot" like an arrow.
His riding skills are very good and he also has a lot of courage!
But people will not die unless they want to die. If Feng Liyan stays at the back of the battle group, Zhu Zhenguo will rein in his horse and retreat in a short time. No matter how elite Difeng is, he has no speed and can fight against an enemy that is thirty times more powerful.
Killing is also unwise.
But during the brief stalemate, Feng Liyan made a shining appearance.
Zhu Zhenguo immediately laughed. Bandits are bandits. No matter how many battles are fought, there will be no progress.
He reached out and took out two thunderbolts from the steel box on his waist. When Zhu Biao separated, he and Zhu Pingchuan and other new generations were given five thunderbolts and five thunderbolts to each of them. Zhu Zhenguo never used them once.
, now it’s time to use it.
"Boom, boom..."
Two balls of flame exploded in the group of thieves and cavalry. In an instant, the thieves and cavalry war horses, which had never experienced anything like this before, were shocked and screamed.
In the center of the explosion, covered by a large area of flames, dozens of corpses of men and horses lay scattered, and some horses that were not killed screamed in the flames.
"kill--"
The soldiers behind Zhu Zhenguo were not affected by the loud noise. The war horses, like dragons, galloped directly through the flames. "Aim!"
More than a dozen sharpshooters in the front row all took off their hand crossbows and aimed at the target. It was indeed Feng Liyan.
"Whoosh..."
Shadows passed through the darkness.
Feng Liyan wanted to hide, but when the explosion sounded, he secretly screamed that something was wrong. But it was already too late!
Fengliyan, who has barely penetrated the Rendu and Dumai vessels, can hardly dodge the fire of more than a dozen crossbows. What's more, the BMW under his crotch is in a frightened state...
The piercing scream rubbed his eardrums. Feng Liyan tried very hard to dodge, and he even pulled two of his guards over, using their bodies as his cover. But he still felt huge pain radiating from every part of his body.
The Mingguang armor on my body seems to have no effect!
He looked at the crossbow arrows that penetrated into his body one after another, his eyes full of confusion.
This is the Mingguang Armor. Even if the crossbow arrow penetrates, it shouldn't have penetrated so deeply! But who knew that Zhu Biao's crossbow unit attribute had been upgraded to level B, and the lethality of his crossbow had greatly increased.
Staggering, Feng Liyan, covered in blood, fell off his horse.
"The king was shot to death!"
"The eye in the wind is dead, and those who descend will not be killed!"
"The king is dead!"
Along with Feng Liyan, the flag general next to him also suffered. Two crossbow bolts penetrated his chest, so he died immediately. As soon as the flag general died, Feng Liyan's flag fell down, and Zhu Zhenguo had the opportunity.
He raised his voice and shouted loudly, and the soldiers followed him and shouted wildly. Suddenly, the thieves were completely in chaos.
How could Zhu Zhenguo miss this opportunity?
He roared violently, swept his spear, and smashed the heads of seven thieves in succession. Then he drove his horse into the group of thieves and danced his spear like falling pear blossoms. The cold light was beautiful, but it was very exciting.
Xiaoming’s post from the King of Hell!
"Feng Liyan is dead! Those who surrender will not be killed——"
Baishi Difeng's morale was like a rainbow, and the cheers were deafening, completely suppressing the thieves' cries of killing. In such a melee, whoever has more momentum will have the advantage. Now this advantage has completely fallen to Zhu Zhenguo's side.
.
Zhu Zhenguo licked the corner of his lower lip with his tongue, and without looking at the result of his victory, he fired his spear wildly. Under his leadership, the Baishi Dyfeng behind him charged forward again, and in just an instant, he was on the ground again.
There were more than fifty corpses of bandits left behind!
This was the last straw that broke the thieves' morale.
The thieves and knights who were originally rushing forward turned around and started to run away. Zhu Zhenguo ordered his men to blow the trumpets and shouted at the same time, beckoning his men to follow up and pursue them.
King Daliang's forehead was filled with veins. King Dingyang's whereabouts have not been seen so far. The Fengliyan camp on the opposite side of the lake can also be seen clearly across the wide Hongqiu Lake, which is twenty or thirty miles away.
The fire also rose in the Fengliyan camp. Looking at the scale and momentum, it was obvious that the Fengliyan camp was also doomed.
"Your Majesty, all the ministries have been summoned——" The general will report.
This was entirely due to the 'sacrifice' of King Dingyang and Feng Liyan, which gave King Daliang time to gather his troops.
Although the troops were in chaos and frightened, they did not look like they could win the battle. King Liang could only pray that the Han army would lose its physical strength and horsepower after defeating two troops in a row.
In the morning, the sun rises.
On the bank of Hongqiu Lake, about 50,000 rebels lined up in uneven formations, facing off against the Han cavalry not far away.
The troops from the left and right camps merged together. Apart from the casualties from the night fighting and the troops guarding the prisoners, Chen Mengren was riding behind him with 12,000 horsemen.
The soldiers galloped and fought in the middle of the night, but they remained as calm as a mountain and their morale was as high as a rainbow.
The king of Daliang and the king of Dingyang looked at the Han army on the opposite side. Fortunately, not bad, it was only ten thousand people to ride, not the tens of thousands they imagined. They still have a chance!
There is still a chance to escape!
King Dingyang, who had narrowly escaped death, no longer thought about "turning defeat into victory". King Daliang, although his main force was still intact, knew how bad the state of his troops was.
But no matter how panicked people are, there are always 40,000 to 50,000 people. It doesn’t matter how long they can resist the Han army, as long as they have enough time to escape. Even 40,000 to 50,000 pigs will take a long time to catch, right?
The good life is still long, and the King of Liang did not want to fulfill the oath he made when the brothers became sworn brothers: not to be born in the same year, the same month and the same day, but to die in the same year, the same month and the same day!
…
In the first month of the eleventh year of Yuanwu, on the banks of Hongqiu Lake, Chen Mengren, the vanguard of the Hedong Army of the Northern Han Dynasty, with his cavalry of ten thousand men, defeated the three bandit chieftains of Daliang Wang Dingyang Wang Fengliyan.
The formation beheaded King Dingyang, had an eye in the wind, and captured the King of Liang! (To be continued, please search Piaotian Literature for better and faster novels!
