What kind of favor was there? It was obviously because his hands were itchy. When he saw Chang Yu entering the battle group with a knife, Zhou Yuji shook his head and smiled bitterly. He took back his mind and took a closer look at the battle situation. The middle army of the bandit army was in a rout after Hao Yaoqi was captured.
It affected both wings. In order to deal with Jinwu Guard's nearly 10,000 cavalry, the northern wing invested a large amount of troops. It was able to support it for a while, but the southern wing was exploited by Yang Zhenwei and He Chengxin.
A ball, like a headless fly, the rhythm is completely suppressed.
When Zhou Yuji was about to send an order to mobilize his personal troops to reinforce the northern wing, and crush this last straw as quickly as possible, Far Passengers came to report: Li Yan's tribe and the bandits were fighting fiercely twenty miles to the northeast.
The bandit army is attacking the city ten miles away!
Good guy, the intruder is so generous. He actually fought on three fronts at the same time. He is quite arrogant. Zhou Yuji sneered and admired the little eunuch. Although it was not exhaustive, it was not far behind. He had predicted the enemy before.
The foresight predicted that the bandit army would make a big move today. I thought it would be a large army besieging Baoding, but unexpectedly, Li Zicheng became even thirstier!
Chang Yu is warlike by nature, but he has been running for nearly a thousand miles continuously in the past few days and tried his best to make plans. In addition, the south is full of shrimps and light rain, so he is not interested in taking action. This time, the overall situation is under control, and he encounters the main force of the bandit army. He is tired of watching and holding on.
The knife comes on stage.
He led more than ten of his attendants and rode into the battle. He raised the knife in his hand and dropped it like a piece of mustard. In an instant, his armor and clothes were stained with blood. He approached Jia Waixiong and shouted: "Old Jia, you haven't achieved even an inch of success. I'm here to guide you."
Are you going to catch big fish?"
When Jia Wai Xiong was venting his anger on the thieves for missing Hao Yaoqi, he suddenly heard someone shouting. Following the call, he saw Chang Yu running towards him. He was immediately overjoyed: "Is there any fish bigger than that wine jar?"
?”
"The wine jar is nothing but a weapon for being used as a weapon. The one at the back is the bigger one." Chang Yu pointed his knife at the flag flying in the east, and wrote: Zhang
The leader named Zhang, who was qualified to hold up the banner and asked Hao Yaoqi to be a pawn, turned out to be Li Zicheng's adopted son Zhang Nai as expected. Chang Yu's head was spinning. When Jia Waixiong heard this, he was full of fighting spirit: "Then go and arrest him."
That thief’s son”.
"Let's go" Chang Yu laughed loudly, and Jia Wai Xiong led the Black Panther Battalion to kill towards the heart of the rebel army. But dozens of meters away from them, Ji Jike had already tied Hao Yaoqi to the outside of the fighting circle.
I ran towards him and saw the little eunuch in the distance actually entering the killing array. I was horrified. The rumors that he would take the lead were true, and that he was brave, good at fighting and ruthless. It was true!
The two armies started fighting for only half a stick of incense. At first, the rebel army's momentum suddenly declined. The change was so fast that Zhang Nai, who was behind the formation, could not believe what he was seeing. He led the formation with the fierce general Hao Yaoqi. At one time, his momentum was like a rainbow. He also attacked with two flanks.
The number of officers and soldiers was more than doubled, but it was only a draw. Just when they were about to order a fierce attack, they saw that the Chinese army had been defeated. The sudden incident was really unacceptable.
At this time, he did not know that the danger was approaching, nor did he know that Hao Yaoqi had been captured. Seeing that the defeat of the Chinese army had spread to both wings, and the morale of the officers and soldiers was high, he could not help but panic, and ordered his subordinates to dispatch troops to block the eye-catching situation, cursing in his heart.
Why is Hao Yaoqi so useless?
The army was defeated like a mountain, and the leader of the vanguard of the rebel army was captured. Then the heavy armored cavalry of the Black Panther Battalion intervened, and two more warriors came to the scene. The rebel army had no intention of fighting anymore, and they fled in all directions. The two wings were instantly affected.
The city collapsed.
Zhang Nai's face was pale. He was defeated. He was defeated. He was defeated so quickly... Why was Zhou Yuji so strong all of a sudden...
He couldn't accept such a cruel reality for a while, but the bloody reality was right in front of him. If he didn't end it in time, the consequences would be even worse.
"General, we can't hold it anymore, look over there..." the soldiers around him shouted. Zhang Nai looked up and saw the defeated troops in front of him were like ebbing tide. The officers and soldiers were chasing them like tigers descending from the mountain. One of the cavalrymen... was heavily armored.
cavalry!
Zhang Nai gritted his teeth in anger: "I want to go and have a meeting in person..."
"General, we can't stop it anymore, go quickly!" the soldiers shouted. Zhang Nai looked around and saw that the rebel army had been defeated and was unable to recover. He was trembling all over, biting his lip and bleeding, and finally hurried under the protection of the soldiers.
Escape.
They came in great numbers, but fled in great embarrassment. More than half of the 30,000 to 40,000 bandits were killed or injured. They were defeated like the Yellow River bursting its embankments, unable to stop them. The generals were captured one by one and fled. The rest had no intention of fighting anymore, and even had no power to escape. They lay on the ground.
Surrender on the ground and beg for mercy.
If in normal times Chang Yu would kill prisoners without batting an eyelid, but at this time he was not allowed to assess the situation, killing people indiscriminately might arouse the resentment of hundreds of thousands of refugees in several nearby prefectures, which would be detrimental to the overall situation, and most of the prisoners at the moment were actually cannon fodder.
There are two types of cannon fodder, one is the strong men who surrendered and were temporarily recruited from the refugees, and the other is the ordinary refugees, old, weak, women and children who are driven over in droves to disturb the morale of the officers and soldiers.
Niu Yong, Yang Zhenwei, and He Chengxin rushed to pursue the defeated troops. The remaining troops were trying to clean up the aftermath of the battlefield. Chang Yu learned about the situation near Zhou Yuji's report, which was also a bit unexpected. Li Zicheng started the war on the third front. This was a big show of force.
.
"The thieves are attacking the city with all their strength. We must rescue them immediately, otherwise we may destroy the city!" Zhou Yuji said urgently.
Chang Yu frowned and looked toward the northeast. There seemed to be dust flying in the sky, but it was difficult to predict the situation of the battle. Zhou Yuji saw that he was silent and couldn't help it, so he ordered the Jinwu Guard to march urgently to rescue Baoding City, because all the Jinwu Guards were cavalry.
, high speed and high combat effectiveness.
"Wait!" Chang Yu suddenly stopped him and sent an order to Ji Jike, Jia Waixiong and the Black Panther Battalion and the Jinwu Guards to rush to the rescue of Li Yan's tribe. The generals immediately sent troops after receiving the order.
Zhou Yuji was puzzled and asked why he didn't save the city!
"Baoding City has high walls and thick walls. No matter how fierce the firepower is, the bandit army will not be able to break through the city for a moment. But now there are only two of us supporting troops under Baoding City. The original intention of the bandits sending troops is to prevent us from going to the rescue. If we wait,
If Baoding City is repelled and the reinforcements are cut off, then the real danger will be," Chang Yu said calmly.
"Li Yan has established a defense line in the north. He has sent troops to harass the intruders several times before. Now that he is attacking the city with all his strength, how can he not send heavy troops to intercept Li Yan? Now that we have defeated the thieves, Niu Yong and others are chasing him.
If we go, we will be able to disrupt the morale of the rebel army below the city, and we will certainly be able to contain the rebel army's offensive to break the city to a certain extent. Therefore, what we need to do now is to mobilize the front troops to support Li Yan, and then join forces to attack the city. Only by cooperating with the inside and outside can we achieve great results."
Huang Degong suddenly realized that he was deeply impressed by the fact that working with the little eunuch was a great joy in life. He was full of pride at the moment: "The general will follow the governor to help Li Yan defeat the thieves, and then march to the city to defeat the army of thieves."
"No, no, no," Chang Yu waved his hand: "Go and help Governor Li Yan deal with the aftermath."
He was uncharacteristically lazy, which shocked Zhou Yuji so much that his jaw almost dropped. Seeing that he didn't seem to be joking, he thought to himself that no one could catch this young man's thoughts. The situation was strangely changing at this time, and he
But it's such a child's play, is it possible that he is so calm because he is confident?
He had no choice but to obey, so he shook his head with a wry smile, clasped his fists, and led his troops away, leaving Chang Yu here to clean up the battlefield.
There were piles of corpses on the battlefield, and howls were everywhere. Thousands of officers and soldiers were counting prisoners, searching for loot, and rescuing their colleagues. As for the injured soldiers of the rebel army, they were usually treated with last-ditch wounds.
Chang Yu sent an order for the prisoners and trophies to be counted and sent to the city for centralized distribution after the war. Then he dismounted and went to the edge of a small forest.
There were more than ten soldiers beside the grove, guarding a big man tied up in an iron tower. It was Hao Yaoqi who was captured by Ji Jike. At this time, his hands and feet were tied and his mouth was gagged. When he saw Chang Yu, he glared and struggled hard.
There was a low buzz in his mouth, which I guess was not a good thing to say.
Chang Yu came closer and looked at him with a smile for a long time. After the guy's panting stopped for a while, he said: "I can take the thing out of your mouth and have a heart-to-heart chat with you, but you have to talk about something useful. Between men,
The kind of refreshing and joyful time, instead of you scolding me like a street shrew, okay?" (To be continued)
