Chapter 1536 The beacon fire in the sky, the battle of Taiyuan (3)
The shrill roar of arrows pierced the sky, piercing the cheek of a Jin Army cavalry commander and shooting him across the face. The cavalry commander howled and turned over and fell from his horse, and the cavalrymen from both sides quickly galloped back and forth.
The trampling has long been silent.
The bowstring in Hua Rong's hand was trembling continuously, and the quiver full of arrows had already been shot empty. There was a horseman following beside him, and Hua Rong took another quiver and hung it.
On the saddle, while still urging the horse to gallop, his handsome eyes were only looking at the many generals in the enemy's cavalry formation. At the same time, he was also paying attention to the two generals Wang Gui and Ji Qing who were leading his troops to charge. From time to time, he used bows and arrows to provide comprehensive support.
Although it does not seem that they are both serving in the Qingzhou Commandery Division, and the friendship of colleagues who know each other does not result in the marriage relationship between uncle and brother-in-law, Hua Rong and Qin Ming, who were born in Qingfeng Village in Qingzhou, met each other in their early years and spent time together.
After Dayi, they interacted with each other a lot. In addition to being more reckless and reckless, their abilities were not as brave as Thunderbolt. However, they were born with similar looks and temperament. Ji Qing also had a hot temper. In battle, he made a big wolf fang.
Great, he looks like a little Qin Ming.
Not only did Ji Qing have great respect for Hua Rong since he was transferred by Xiao Tang to serve as a general in the Cuchi Army, but his attitude was also very similar to that of Yue Fei, who was the first to return to the army and join the army, not to mention Wang Gui.
It is said that Hua Rong and he, Yue Fei, Zhang Xian and Tang Huai had known each other for a long time, and they were already old friends when they gathered at the Xiao family in Daming Mansion. Over the years, Hua Rong had met many brothers who had joined together to fight for justice.
Jin died on the battlefield. The battle in front of him was dangerous. He also tried his best to protect the brothers who supported each other and supported each other. Several arrow clusters roared out one after another. He was also about to shoot a member of the Jin Army Cavalry General who was attacking Ji Qing from behind.
He fell off his horse, but Ji Qing didn't notice it and just continued to charge forward while screaming.
The battle in front of him, Xiao Tang Wangzhi, was secretly advancing more smoothly than he had expected. Generals Wang Gui and Ji Qing broke into the formation, and Hua Rong led his troops to roam back and forth to provide cavalry and shooting support.
Unstoppable, this time the impact of the confrontation, the impact of only one branch of the Chi army, almost tore the Jin Kingdom's leading cavalry formation into two pieces.
However, it was still just a close call.
Suddenly, the horns of the Jurchen cavalry formation were blaring, the flags were fluttering, and the two wings of Jurchen army horses roared and accelerated to outflank. Samulu, Shaguzhi and their guards immediately swept up and rushed towards Wang Gui.
While riding hard with Ji Qing's troops, they also tried to cut off the connection between the cavalry and archery under Hua Rong's troops and the light cavalry of other teams.
Xiao Tang was paying attention to the battle situation, and his clenched palms were already full of sweat. After a while, he finally gave an order, and Zhu Wu waved the order flag from beside him. Suddenly, there was another wave of waves on the flanks of the army.
Loud shouts were mixed with the rapid sound of horse hooves. Yang Zhi, led by Zhu Jing, Yang Zaixing and other generals, also led the Tianbo Army's powerful cavalry to suddenly charge out and went straight to the galloping battle group in the center of the battlefield.
To support Hua Rong's rebel army.
On the other hand, Yin Keshu, the leader of the Jin army's formation, still had a calm expression. He looked at the movements of the formation where Xiao Tang was located, raised the corners of his mouth slightly, revealed a ferocious smile, and said softly: "The Song army was captured earlier.
Despite repeated defeats, Xiao Tang still dared to lead the soldiers he had gathered to rush to Taiyuan, and came to challenge the Jurchen army. There were indeed many brave generals under his command, and he could indeed be called a capable army! But he
The bandits under your command have gathered under Taiyuan City. If they can no longer calm down now, will there be any way out when they are defeated?"
Yin Shu knew that the rise of the Jurchens was really fast. They won more and more battles, and they became stronger and braver. Of course, the Jurchen tribes achieved a reputation of killing all the tribes in the north and became fearless and invincible. But the Jurchen sons
With the prestige of ever-victorious mentality, it is inevitable to be arrogant, and the battle between the East Route Army and Xiao Tang ended with the defeat of the Jin Army. The famous founding general of the Jin Dynasty, Bodhisattva Prince Wanyan Orulu Bu, was even killed. News of the defeat spread.
When we arrived at the Jin Kingdom's West Route Army, the Jurchen troops, who had developed an arrogant and arrogant mentality early on and had been fighting for a long time, were somewhat disturbed.
However, the morale of the Jin army would not suffer a serious blow. Zhi Yin Shu could command the troops with sophisticated methods. He considered that Xiao Tang led the army under his command to make a sudden attack, and that the Jin army on the east route, commanded by Prince Bodhisattva, broke through.
After the Song Dynasty capital Bianjing, the military morale was negligent, and due to the coordination of Song Tingqin, King Tingqin and other troops, they ended up with a disastrous defeat. This was indeed a blow to the Jin army's military morale, but it also sounded the alarm.
, the army he now commands is to take advantage of the siege of Taiyuan to annihilate a large number of the effective forces of the Song army. The war preparations are properly deployed, waiting for you to lead the army. Of course, with Wanyan Orulu's troops who are eager to return to the north, they will return home.
The situation of the army on the east route was completely different.
After all, you, a traitor who betrayed the Song Dynasty, did not hide in the capital of the Central Plains. You did not go to the Southern Dynasty to find a place to settle down. It was just because of the great fortune of our Jin country that it was convenient for you to continue your intrigues. Instead, you were eager to fight.
Fahedong Xiaotang, Xiaotang, these bandits and thieves led by you are so arrogant now.
Yin Shuke thought about it in his mind. Xiao Tang sent troops from the Gyeonggi Road. Along the way, they passed through Longde Mansion, Weisheng Army and other state capitals successively recovered the city. Now they rushed straight to the front of Taiyuan City. Although the momentum of the rush to rescue seemed unstoppable, it was not
Are you going deep alone?
Previously, Hedong had experienced large and small wars, and most of the so-called friendly forces of the Song Dynasty Forbidden Army to Xiao and Tang had been killed long ago. The recaptured Longde Mansion, Wei Sheng Army and other Xiazhou and county defenses were mostly empty. Now they only need to secure
Dragging you and the troops and horses under your command here, and then bypassing other troops and horses that have been deployed by a certain family, they will cut off your retreat. These grass bandits and thieves led by you seem to be huge, but they are
The situation then will be no different from that of Taiyuan Mansion, which sooner or later will fall to the ground and be massacred. If we continue to resist stubbornly, will we be able to defeat my Jurchen son?
Therefore, the man with silver skills who was as stable as Mount Tai was sitting in the middle of the army, watching the battle situation in front of him coldly and still calmly. Now that the Taiyuan war has entered the scale of a battle, he not only personally led the army to confront Xiao Tang's rebel army, but he was also making plans in his mind at this time.
Several other groups of soldiers and horses were sent by him to outflank the rear of the Song Dynasty. The rear was outflanked and cut off. It was easier for these soldiers and horses led by Xiao Tang to come, but it was difficult to leave. After all, you were eager to rush to Taiyuan, but how could you take care of everything?
The entire battle?
However, at the same time, in Taigu and Pantuo areas, which are 150 to 60 miles away from Taiyuan Prefecture, General Yelu Mawu, who had already ordered his troops to make a roundabout way and then attack Weisheng and other places, did not have the same look on his face as Yin Shuke could.
So calm and calm.
The 8,000 soldiers and horses led by him originally thought that several Song army reinforcements were defeated on the way, but they still used Taiyuan as a bait to attract Xiao Tang's rebels. At the same time, they galloped and marched most of the land north of Hedong Road. Yelu came and went freely.
Ma Wu was still thinking that the state capital south of Taiyuan had changed hands several times after tug-of-war. The defense was not very tight when attacking the city. In addition, except for the Khitan soldiers under his command who were good at fighting, they had to be trusted with silver skills.
He was also in charge of two thousand Jurchen warriors who were also in the formation. Yelu Mawu was also a brave general who was good at commanding troops in battle. He knew that this military strength had previously been enough to defeat tens of thousands of Song troops who had resisted to no avail, so he accepted such a military order.
Just think of it as a fat guy.
However, Yelu Ma Wugang led his troops through a mountain ridge. The marching soldiers were shocked to hear a shrill horn sound, and countless sharp arrows shot out of the air and roared in. In an instant, the marching troops were like sickles cutting grass.
The man and the horse shot down one piece!
The shrill sound of arrow feathers piercing the air continued, and amid the sounds of people howling and horses neighing, Yelu Ma urgently ordered all his troops to seize up, and when they tried to close their formation, they were shocked to see the ambushed enemy troops suddenly charging out again, heading straight towards
He rushed over with his own troops and horses.
It was called a surprise attack because it was an unprepared attack. Yelv Mawu was shocked to find that the Song soldiers and horses ambushed here were actually of a certain size. He was shocked and angry. He immediately picked up his long sword and looked at the enemy soldiers who were charging around.
And it was found that most of them were wearing the uniforms and armors of the Song Army. First, a general of the Song Army rushed in with a spear and a horse, and the flag behind him also clearly read: Xiao Taiwei Yao Pingzhong!
