"Hold on! Vice General Wu's army is about to arrive! The rebel army is struggling to its death! Come on!" Yu Zilian shouted.
Early this morning, we saw that the Ruzhou Army's camp was heavily defended, and the Peasant Army also suspended its attack, waiting for the Runing Army to be exhausted. The two sides were in a state of confrontation. However, within half a day, the Peasant Army seemed to be in a state of confrontation.
They attacked like crazy, causing the Ruzhou Army camp to be in a state of chaos.
Under the power of the captured artillery, the Ruzhou Army's camp was almost broken several times. However, under Yu Zilian's instigation, the remaining Ruzhou Army still tried their best to plug the leaks, barely preserving the integrity of the camp. But now they are looking forward to it.
The Runing Army has appeared. If they don't come again, these soldiers don't know if they can hold on and stop the crazy peasant army.
But although it was just a guess, Yu Zilian's guess was not wrong. This uncharacteristic behavior of the peasant army meant that the Runing Army had already approached this peasant army.
After setting off from Ruzhou City, it didn't take long for this large group of people to be discovered by the spies of the Peasant Army. However, Ma Shouying, the commander, did not panic at all, because he had already laid an ambush on the way and was ready to encircle him.
Calling for reinforcements.
But then Ma Shouying noticed something strange. At first, few of the spies he sent out came back. Ma Shouying also understood that those spies were strangled by the reconnaissance cavalry sent by the Runing Army. Therefore, Ma Shouying immediately had an idea of the combat effectiveness of the supporting army.
Intuitive understanding.
Then, the Ming army that came for reinforcements moved very strangely. They not only marched during the day, but also made a rapid march in the dark, passing through several ambush points of the peasant army, and suddenly appeared in front of the last interception line of defense of the peasant army.
Ma Shouying immediately knew that something was wrong. He absolutely did not believe that the last intercepting peasant army could stop the Ming army. So Ma Shouying immediately decided to take his elite troops away from the battlefield.
So Ma Shouying first gathered his own troops, and then sent the motley crew of peasant armies to attack Yu Zilian's Ruzhou Army with all their strength. He wanted those motley crews to entangle the Ruzhou Army and then leave them behind to block it. It was completely a kind of
The behavior of a dead Taoist friend is not that of a poor Taoist.
In order to rob the remaining military supplies of the Ruzhou Army, those unknowing peasant armies, with the cooperation of the captured artillery, resolutely devoted themselves to the attack on the Ruzhou Army camp, leaving Yu Zilian in a panic.
"How's it going? Have you all gathered?" Ma Shouying asked.
"The cavalry has assembled, but 30% of the cavalry has not come yet!" replied a trusted general.
"No more waiting. Let's go first! That team of official dogs moved too fast." Ma Shou responded to the order.
But before Ma Shouying finished speaking, he only heard the roar of firearms from the interception place in the distance. Then, first one or two, then in groups, the defeated peasant army collapsed towards Ma Shouying's main formation.
.
Ma Shouying's expression suddenly changed. Originally, he thought he could hold them off for a day or two no matter what. But in less than half a day, the peasant army that intercepted them had been defeated.
Moreover, those defeated troops also ran towards their own formation, weren't they serving as the vanguard? If the main formation of Ma Shouying was dispersed by the defeated troops, then he would be injured.
So Ma Shouying immediately ordered: "Bows and arrows disperse the broken troops and let them flee to both sides. Let's leave quickly!"
"The traitor army is retreating! The traitor army is retreating!" The Ruzhou Army, which had fallen into despair, suddenly found that their pressure dropped sharply. In confusion, they discovered that the peasant army, which had been going crazy just now, had already retreated like a tide.
.So they all cheered loudly.
The peasant troops who were fighting also found that their companions were retreating, so they immediately lost their fighting spirit and fled backwards, abandoning their helmets and armor. It was only because the Ruzhou army was still in shock that they did not take advantage of the peasant army's embarrassment to cover up the enemy.
Those miscellaneous peasant army leaders who were serving as cannon fodder were not fools. When they saw Ma Shouying gathering his troops, they thought it was Ma Shouying's elite troops who were about to join the battle. But now when they saw Ma Shouying's commander's flag retreating, they knew something was wrong. But not yet.
When the leaders understood the reason, they saw that the friendly troops who had gone to intercept had broken up and dispersed. Isn't this situation still clear? Run away quickly. It depends on whose legs are longer.
So the soldiers of the Ruzhou Army who were still fighting desperately just now seemed to have had a nightmare, holding weapons in their hands. They stared blankly at the peasant army fleeing in all directions on the battlefield. After a while, they saw thousands more well-equipped soldiers.
The cavalry rushed into the battlefield and slaughtered the fleeing peasant army.
The soldiers of the Ruzhou Army finally reacted. They all cried with joy, hugged each other, and shouted: "We are saved! Reinforcements are coming!..."
I don't know who started it, but they cheered together: "Your Majesty is wise! Your Majesty is mighty! Your Majesty is so clever!" The soldiers' admiration for Yu Zilian suddenly reached the extreme.
At this time, Yu Zilian was also completely exhausted. When the celebrities around him appeared out of nowhere, ignoring their celebrity demeanor, and crowded around Yu Zilian to congratulate him, Yu Zilian also tried his best to restrain the ecstasy in his heart.
, said lightly: "This is all under my control!"
But before those celebrities could flatter him again, Yu Zilian couldn't help but smile up to the sky, and then fainted with a "thud". The mental and physical fatigue caused by these days of crisis finally took hold.
"Where is Yu Zhizhou?" Wu Shigong asked arrogantly.
"We, Yu Zhizhou, are resting in the tent!" Wang Qianhu, who accompanied Wu Shigong, nodded and bowed his head and replied.
This time, the Runing Army gave full play to their characteristics of marching and fighting at night, using changing rhythms to avoid the ambush of the peasant army. Because in such a dark night, the peasant army could not set up an ambush!
After that, the Runing Army broke through the last interception line. There is not much to say. After the artillery bombardment, the artillery bombardment was completed and the cavalry charged. After the artillery bombardment, the cavalry charged, and then the whole army followed the cavalry to attack.
The peasant army that was originally intercepting was caught off guard. It was struck by the powerful firepower of the Runing army, which meant that it was defeated.
After that, they took advantage of the situation and carried out a mopping up. Basically, the peasant army that besieged the Ruzhou Army was left behind by the Runing Army's cavalry, and even Ma Shouying's troops were left behind by the Runing Army.
Ma Shouying had no intention of fighting at all, so he gathered the defeated troops and fled westward. The fatigue of the hasty march also made it impossible for Runing's army to pursue them too deeply, so Wu Shigong and the others gave up as soon as they were ready. However, the outcome of this battle was
The results were astonishing.
Seeing that it was already dark, Wu Shigong gathered his troops, gathered the prisoners and captured people, and joined forces with the Ruzhou Army. (To be continued...)
