Chapter 67: It is so decisive(3/4)
"Wave the flag!"
The surrounding officers were caught off guard.
"Wave the flag!" Wang Bolong turned around, his face more serious than ever. "Wave the flag immediately and let the front troops withdraw! This is a trap!"
The principal beside him was in a daze, and he quickly waved several flags together and blew the bugle.
In the Song army camp, the Jin army, which was still advancing despite some difficulties, dismounted and remounted their horses and turned back in shock. The sound and flag clearly meant that they wanted to retreat, but why did they want to retreat?
They had no vision at all from below and had no idea what was going on.
Many people immediately became panicked.
"Start immediately!" On Tushan Mountain, Yue Fei was condescending and issued another military order without hesitation.
For a time, seven or eight red flags were waving on Tushan Mountain, which served as the command platform of the Song Army, while the right army of the imperial camp, which had long been hidden in one side of the camp, was carrying the Wei army, that is, the long ax that had long been unable to hold back.
The heavy infantry, under the leadership of Zhang Zigai, immediately followed the familiar camp road and eagerly attacked the Jin army pouring into the camp from the flanks.
At the same time, several reserve teams at the foot of Tushan also swarmed forward. Tian Shizhong, who was extremely aggrieved at the front line, turned around, set his own flag, and ordered a counterattack.
Even some brave civilians began to use their familiarity with the terrain to pour out of some small villages and try to seize those precious war horses.
There was no gap between the movements of both sides, as if Wang Bolong's decisive withdrawal summoned the Song army's ambush.
At this time, some of the knights of the Golden Army who had noticed the movement around them woke up and turned their heads one after another. However, those dense trenches, camps, and corridors remained cold and unchanged. How they prevented them from advancing effectively before, how to counterattack now
came and became an obstacle to their retreat.
In panic, even the elite of Bai Zhan fell into some kind of confusion.
On the river embankment, Wang Bolong could see more clearly than these soldiers... The extremely obvious elite heavy step advance was extremely fast, and it intentionally or unintentionally moved towards the east outer embankment, as if he wanted to move his
The subordinates surrounded the camp and devoured them all.
At the same time, the retreat speed of his subordinates was too slow.
If this continues, it seems to be only a matter of time before the troops that smashed into the Song Army camp will be completely surrounded and annihilated. As the commander-in-chief, he must make a quick decision, whether to lead his bodyguards and the infantry behind him to respond, or to
The strong man cuts off his wrist and retreats immediately?
Wang Bolong stood on the river embankment, and the war horse under his crotch led him around several times, which also made his eyes focus on the subordinates lying in front of him, the huge Yuancheng on the south, more and more Song Army cavalry on the river to the north, and behind him
On the embankment on the east bank, the infantry formations rotated repeatedly.
Finally, Wang Bolong, who was so decisive, became decisive again. He pulled down his mask, turned his horse's head, and rode eastward, taking his last cavalry and bodyguards with him to find his infantry array.
No less than forty Mou Ke were thrown into the Song army's camp!
And these forty Mooke were like insignificant ink stains in the huge camp, being quickly cleaned up by a huge rag.
Wang Bolong retreated, disappointing everyone.
The Jin army was at a low place and witnessed their general abandoning him. Naturally, he was frustrated and angry. Yue Fei and other generals were also disappointed when they saw Wang Bolong escaping with his limbs cut off at such a speed... This is ten thousand households, and it is equivalent to
The general who founded thousands of households in the country is known as the most brave general in the Eastern Route Army.
What a pity.
Even Tian Shizhong felt a little unfair. He had sacrificed hundreds of lives, and might even have lost thousands of people in the end, to catch this big fish. Not to mention that Wang Bolong ran away at this time, it was Jin Jun's.
He found it difficult to accept that the infantry did not follow.
"Damasao, how many people are here?"
On the other side of the Yellow River in the east, the heavily armored deputy general Yang Zaixing turned to look at each other on his horse.
"A little more than three hundred..." Guo Jin, the commander on the side, told him seriously. "Three of them are, but one of them is a minor official."
"That's two hundred, both of them, one for each of us." Yang Zaixing spoke while swinging the iron gun back and forth in his hand. "Lao Guo, that man surnamed Wang has a household of ten thousand, how could he be allowed to run away like this?
If I don't rush, I will definitely not be able to sleep tonight... I haven't fought since I crossed the river!"
Guo Jin thought for a while, then looked back at the "little officials" who were reorganizing the troops under the river embankment in the distance, that is, the young marshal Yue Yun who, according to the custom, was carrying the title of "Ji Yi" and was actually the commander-in-chief of the Wei Army.
Then he nodded: "I think it's okay... let's rush in quickly before the official can react!"
After saying that, Yang Zaixing reined in his horse and turned around. He gave a whistle on the horse and pulled down his mask. Then there was no flag or words. He just took the lead and headed towards the Jin Army, which still had five thousand soldiers.
The infantry marched away in great formation.
In other words, it was heading towards the king-shaped banner that had just entered the infantry formation.
Guo Jin followed closely behind, both of them carrying the Wei army. They were both accustomed to following others, so they immediately caught up with him without hesitation. Only the man who was cleaning up the city under the river embankment was obviously a little stunned, but he was looking towards him.
After taking a first look at the situation, Xiaodu, who was only fifteen or sixteen years old, chose to remain still with a slight commotion.
The little one, Yue Yun, who was only sixteen or seventeen years old, was obviously a little confused... He had just entered the battle, how would he know what to do?
If you don't go, does that mean you are cowardly in the face of battle?
But if he goes, does it count as attacking without authorization?
Who will get the military stick?
But soon, as a general appeared on the river embankment with hundreds of riders who were no longer covered at all, this doubt was immediately dispelled.
"Yue Yun!" Zhang Xian glared at him on the river embankment. "The enemy troops are all running away. Are you in a daze? All the cavalry here are with you. Take them to Damashio quickly! Remember,
If you make a mistake, I will give you twenty army sticks!"
Yue Yun received the order, and without hesitation, he immediately got on his horse, led the two or three hundred horsemen who had just crossed the river, plus his own capital, and chased Guo and Yang.
Zhang Xian, on the other hand, stayed where he was, urging the outnumbered troops behind him... There was no battle across the river, but the Beiwei Army of the imperial camp's right army repeatedly made the final decision. From Tian Shizhong's point of view, he was certainly manipulated, but
From the perspective of the two armies below Zhang Xian and Zhang Zigai, it is Zhang Zigai's troops who are increasingly respected in the camp, while the cavalrymen of the imperial camp's front army have become the object of innuendo by many people.
Some people even say that Marshal Yue’s real back Wei army is Zhang Jiedu’s army. How could Zhang Xian tolerate this?
In this way, Zhang Xian organized his troops here, and sent out one capital as soon as he organized them. On the other side, a small group of cavalry speeded up, so fast. They were only a few miles apart. Wang Bolong had just led his infantry to the east, a few hundred steps away from the embankment.
That’s all, the two sides can fight directly!
Of course Wang Bolong saw this small group of cavalry, and was equally flustered... But what worried him was not the power of these two hundred cavalry, but the fear that after being bitten, the Song Army cavalry would continue to tear him apart.
Therefore, he immediately pointed out the two assassins and asked them to lead the remaining two hundred horses to meet him.
But at this time, the Jin army was already panicking. The two cavalrymen who were plotting to conquer were very cold-hearted when they saw Wang Bolong abandoning most of the main force. At this time, they had to order to meet the Song army cavalry. The key is that there are more cavalry behind them.
The smoke and dust are billowing, and it is obvious that there is constant support. How can you be willing to die?
Once your heart is in turmoil, you won't dare to openly disobey the order, but you will inevitably slow down your actions.
At the same time, General Guo Yang was definitely not rushing. When they saw that there were many cavalry supporting Wang Zi's banner, and there were constant reinforcements behind them, they simply turned slightly and rushed towards the advancing east side together.
The Jin army's foot formation was placed at the edge of the formation to prevent the Jin army from escaping.
The two of them worked together very well. The two hundred cavalry were like two huge iron spears, and the second general was like the tip of a spear that was not rusty and blunt. While avoiding the somewhat slow-moving Jin Army cavalry, they kept attacking from the Jin Army infantry.
Loose pieces were found at the corners of the array and the flesh was cut out one after another.
After succeeding only two or three times, the Jin army's infantry array became somewhat chaotic.
When Yue Yun arrived with several hundred cavalry and ran into the Jin army's blocking force, the chaos intensified and the retreat speed of the army was obviously hindered.
The situation that Wang Bolong was most worried about appeared.
Then, the famous Jin general who was known as the most brave in the East Route Army hesitated again, and once again made a quick decision. He did not know how many times he pulled down his mask and ordered the remaining few hundred riders to leave together.
Infantry formation, to drive away the two small groups of cavalry that blocked the retreat of the infantry formation.
This time, he really wasn't escaping, and he did not leave the infantry array, because he had realized that if he abandoned the infantry again, he would inevitably become a hunted target in the wilderness.
He really wanted to save the infantry, and he also wanted to save himself.
However, when he saw the cavalry under Commander Wang Bolong disperse and rush toward him, Yang Zaixing was excited, because the opponent's action also revealed a flaw and opened the tight door of the infantry.
Without waiting for Guo Jin to make a whistle call, Yang Zaixing brandished his iron spear and led the dozens of cavalry behind him upstream against the Jin army's cavalry. Guo Jin saw it from a distance and was furious, but he had to give up his original tactics and led his troops forward.
He tried his best to protect Yang Zaixing.
Wang Bolong stood under his banner and saw this scene through the eye holes in his mask.
He saw that the first cavalryman was carrying a huge iron gun, but he was as easy as waving a small gadget. He rushed all the way upstream, but he continued to kill his own cavalry, but he killed more than ten people in a moment.
And it kept advancing towards him, but he vaguely thought of his appearance during the battle more than ten years ago.
At that time, the siege was unsuccessful, so he lost his helmet. Instead of retreating, he simply put on heavy armor and carried a large pot as a helmet. Then he climbed the ladder with an iron spear and killed twenty people on the city with his own hands.
If there are many people, the first step is to destroy the city.
From then on, even Lu Bu did not dare to show his courage in front of him.
This person today is no less brave than I was back then!
The order I just gave was not wrong, it was just that this man's courage was truly impressive.
With this thought, Wang Bolong mustered up his courage, took off his big gun from his horse, and faced the enemy.
When Yang Zaixing saw a general with extraordinary armor coming from his banner, how could he not know it was Wang Bolong? He was even more delighted, so he killed several more cavalrymen, grabbed him, then drew his spear and stabbed him. But Wang Bolong just raised his hand to catch it, and felt
His arms went numb, and then he suddenly woke up... This was not a question of whether he was still brave as before, but that the other party was infinitely stronger than when he was in his prime!
At this moment, the founder of the Jin Kingdom Wanhu didn't hesitate anymore. He leaned over to hug the horse with one hand and dragged the gun away with the other hand, trying to scatter outwards with his scattered cavalry... At this point, he didn't think about anything anymore.
In war, we just want to survive.
But since Wang Bolong escaped, his bodyguards, who were somewhat loyal, swarmed in and tried to stop Yang Zaixing at the risk of their lives. However, no matter how tyrannical Yang Zaixing was, he would kill one by one.
On the contrary, the mantis was catching the cicada and the oriole was behind, and Guo Jin was behind to block Yang Zaixing. When he saw this scene, he knew that the key was coming, but he moved forward hard to block the general face to face.
Wang Bolong is not a person with poor eyesight. The person he spied on before is the same as the person before. He has the sharpest point of the Hundred Cavalry. His arms are still numb here. If he dares to go right, he immediately turns around again and panics.
To be continued...
