Chapter 1707: The sudden reinforcements, the joy of the generals
Chapter 1707: Sudden reinforcements, General Jin’s joy
The number of these soldiers and horses was nearly ten thousand. The two leading generals came directly towards the Xia Liao cavalry. Another group of light cavalry bypassed the two soldiers and horses at a faster speed.
, and went straight to the battlefield where Hei Khan and Zhuo were.
The cavalry from the Kingdom of Jin arrived first, while the cavalry from Xia Liao's side who crossed the water was only more than 2,000. The gap between the two sides was several times, and one side was so powerful that they were almost face to face. Xia Liao's troops and horses were
Defeated! In fact, the Jin cavalry had cut off their retreat, and they couldn't escape even if they wanted to.
Another group of four to five thousand troops rushed into the melee, chopping melons and vegetables.
The Xia Liao soldiers and horses here had already overwhelmed Heihan and Zhuo's soldiers and horses, and the number of soldiers who came ashore reached two to three thousand. However, with the arrival of this cavalry, these soldiers and horses who came ashore were no match at all, and even
Without even a chance to resist, they were directly surrounded by cavalry.
The other side's general apparently also noticed the strange movement on the other side. Seeing his soldiers and horses being slaughtered, although he was furious, he also knew that it was no longer the time to continue fighting.
The reinforcements from the Kingdom of Jin came unexpectedly, catching them off guard. Now is not the time to dwell on this, but to gather their troops as quickly as possible and retreat directly to Qalan Prefecture.
As long as they guard Qianlan Prefecture, Baodou Prefecture, and Jizhou, they will still have a chance to counterattack, or at least they can contain the large number of troops from the Jin Kingdom here.
The battle on the east bank ended quickly. Heihan and Zhuo, who had narrowly escaped death, breathed a sigh of relief and headed straight towards the general leading the army.
"Wugu Lunda, Lida, Turha, why are you here?
But Commander Shan Kening is leading the army?
Your war in the southwest is actually over?"
Although they are not soldiers from the same place, Heihan and Zhuo can be considered old acquaintances with these people.
"Hahaha!"
Turha laughed loudly, got off his horse and patted Heihan and Zhuo on the shoulder, "Should you treat your brothers to a drink? This time, you owe us your life."
"It's just a drink!"
Heihan and Zhuo said loudly, "Don't worry, I will stay with you until we get back to camp!"
"Hey, you guys arrived just in time. If it had been another hour later, I would have had to collect the body for my brother.
However, why don't you lead your troops to chase us?
Don't worry, this army is a partial division of the party. There were only more than 20,000 soldiers in total before. They fought with me many times, and they also damaged thousands of soldiers and horses. Adding to the damage in this battle, I am afraid that at most the remaining
Thousands of people went up and down."
"If we pursue them one after another now, they will be unable to resist at all! But if we wait for them to retreat to Qalan Prefecture, it will be difficult for us to find opportunities to completely defeat them."
"You kid, do you think you're the only one with a brain?
Which one, the commander-in-chief or the deputy commander-in-chief, is not smarter than you?
Don’t worry, none of these people can escape!”
"This time it should be Commander Tu Dankening who is leading the troops. Who is the deputy commander?"
Heihan and Zhuo asked curiously.
"Hahaha, you guessed wrong! This time, Commander Tu Dankening is just our deputy commander!"
"oh?"
Hei Khan and Zhuo looked startled, "Did the imperial court send another commander in chief?
However, even so, there are probably not many who can defeat Commander Dankening."
"You wouldn't have guessed this! However, our commander-in-chief this time is still an old acquaintance of yours! Come on, let's take you to meet him."
Black Khan and Zhuo let the soldiers and horses under Ugu Lunda help clean the battlefield, and they mounted their horses and followed them southward.
After walking about a dozen miles, they saw a mighty army of twenty to thirty thousand people approaching, and the leader's flag actually had the word "Shen" on it.
Heihan and Zhuo thought for a long time. They really couldn't think of any well-known commander in the imperial court with this surname. They approached this army with suspicion. When both sides could see each other's faces clearly, Heihan and Zhuo couldn't help but exclaimed. A voice said, "Song people?"
How could there be a Song Army?
Could it be that besides you, there are also Song troops coming?"
"No, Shen... is Commander Shen Tang?"
Heihan and Zhuo's eyes lit up. Not only was the coach named Shen, but also a large number of Song troops showed up. Who else could this person be if it wasn't Shen Tang?
Hei Khan and Zhuo's surprise made Ugu Lunda and others laugh, "Yes, this time we have a total of 60,000 troops, of which 20,000 are borrowed troops from the Song Dynasty to join us, and the rest of the troops are all heavy Tang is the commander-in-chief, and Commander-in-Chief Dankening is the deputy commander-in-chief of the army."
"Why did the Song Dynasty suddenly lend us troops?"
Wugu Lunda shook his head, "We don't know what happened specifically, but I heard from the deputy commander that His Majesty sent an envoy to Lin'an of the Song Dynasty to discuss peace with the Song Dynasty. In the end, the two sides reached an agreement and we will Kaifeng The area around the mansion was returned to the Song Dynasty, while the Song Dynasty returned the occupied Lintao Road to us, and also needed to send troops to help us."
"Furthermore, His Majesty specifically mentioned that the commander-in-chief of the Song Dynasty must be Marshal Shen Tang!"
"Commander Shen Tang first helped us defeat Xia Liao's 80,000 troops in the Fengxiang Mansion area, and then joined us with more than 30,000 troops, and joined forces with 30,000 elite troops sent by General Manager Wan Yanhao. , Therefore, we have more than 60,000 soldiers and horses coming this time, and they are all elite soldiers and strong generals."
"Hahaha!"
Hei Khan and Zhuo were overjoyed. He would not worry about the court's decision, nor was he qualified to worry about it. However, he knew that this time not only did 60,000 elite troops come, but Shen Tang was also the commander. Not only did Taiyuan Prefecture The war within the territory will end, and the war on Xijing Road and even Commander Heshi Liezhining's place will also end soon, and the final result will be the victory of the Jin Kingdom.
The last time Shen Tang went on a mission to the Kingdom of Jin, he happened to encounter the party members invading Xijing Road. At that time, he saw Shen Tang's power.
Later, the Kingdom of Jin lent troops to the Song Dynasty, and the Battle of Chengdu Mansion of the Song Dynasty, controlled by Shen Tang, fully demonstrated Shen Tang's military talents.
It is no exaggeration to say that Heihan and Zhuo have more confidence in Shen Tang than he does himself.
Especially Shen Tang's ever-changing battlefield layout made him excited even just thinking about it.
"So, not only did you come to support me, but the commander-in-chief also set up an ambush behind them?"
Heihan and Zhuo asked excitedly.
Wugu Lunda nodded, "Before we came, the commander learned about the war situation in Taiyuan Prefecture through Tanma and local guides."
"So, 15,000 elite Song troops had already circled behind them.
It is estimated that it will not be long before we get the news that Xia Liao's troops and horses have been defeated.
The combat power of those Song troops is not even inferior to our elites, and they were caught by surprise. There is absolutely no hope for Xia Liao troops to escape."
