Thousands of horses went out of Taihang and rushed to the high ground.

Zhending, Zhaozhou, Xingzhou, and even Cizhou hundreds of miles away were shocked. The entire Hebei West Road, from north to south, all the way down, the Jin army detectives from various prefectures and counties were everywhere, and the warnings were frequent, and the chaos was shattered.

Jump, panic.

Since the Song army attacked Jingxing Pass at night, Zhending Prefecture sent a small team of Jin soldiers to wander outside Jingxing Pass day and night, closely monitoring the progress of the battle. The information we received was that the Song army successfully attacked, one broke Jingxing Pass, and two

After taking the Naihe Pass, it almost reached Tianshu City of the Tianzhu Army.

Just as Wang Bolong and Yelu Duo summoned the generals overnight to urgently discuss whether to send troops to Jingxing as soon as possible and get a bowl of soup. However, the situation suddenly changed. After only one night, the Song army, who was already sure to win, was suddenly defeated.

On the contrary, like a rat and rabbit driven away by a beast, he rushed out of Jingxing Pass in vain and fled south.

The reinforcements of the Tianzhu Army have arrived, and the Song army has been defeated. Although this result has been expected, the reversal is too sudden. The real deposit army, which is ready to move, is in the forefront of cold water. The feeling of loss has not completely dissipated, and shock comes one after another.

—The sky punished thousands of cavalry, broke out of Jingxing, chased and killed the north, and vowed to destroy the Song army.

There were two enemy troops fighting on the territory of the Jin Dynasty. How to deal with this?

In this era, there is no concept of sovereignty at all. In addition, the Jin people subconsciously do not regard Hebei as their own territory, so they are not too entangled with this issue. There is only one who really makes the true defensive generals trouble.

Man - Sali drinks.

When the Song army was defeated, was Sali Yu, the Jin envoy who followed the army dead or alive? What is certain is that Sali Yu could not escape, otherwise he would have to guard and get rid of the remaining troops of the Song army and escape to Zhending. What if Sali Yu is gone?

He was out of date and was once a heavy general at the level of the Jin army's mother, not to mention that the right deputy marshal still appreciated him. However, no one could come up with an idea of ​​how to deal with it. After discussing for a long time, Wang Bolong finally made the final decision: "Report this matter to Kaifeng

The right deputy marshal's mansion. Please decide the two men."

In private, Wang Bolong said to Yelu Duo like this: "Salihe ends with nothing more than two kinds of endings, either being captured or being killed in battle. If you are captured, two men will negotiate with Tianshu City; if you are killed in battle

... There is no need to break out another war with the Tianzhu Army for a dead man."

Yelu Duo agreed deeply.

The two defenders of Zhending Prefecture did not mention a word whether they would take measures against the Tianzhu Qianqi who went out of Taihang - this is obvious. There are only 10,000 defenders in Zhending Prefecture, and only 5,000 soldiers in the main soldiers.

There are less than one thousand cavalry. In other words, if you really want to react to the Tianzhu Army's move, there are less than one thousand cavalry. You will confront the Tianzhu Cavalry with one-to-one force.

For the Jin army generals of Zhending Prefecture who are familiar with the combat effectiveness of the Tianzhu Army, this is completely taking risks. Taking risks with their most elite troops to help the Song army escape? Do you really think that the Jin army will do good deeds and help others?

The Jin army in Zhending Prefecture did not move, and the Jin army in other prefectures and counties dared not move. The military soldiers in these prefectures and counties, even the main soldiers, auxiliary soldiers and errands, did not have a thousand people in total. Cavalry? Can you get one together?

The whistle chasing is very good.

The Jin army in prefectures and counties along the way did not dare to provoke the hunting soldiers, but the Song army, who were defeated by the remnants, would not be polite and frequently launched attacks on Du Chong's army. Fortunately, Du Chong's army has been staying at Jingxing Pass and has not participated in the Naihe Pass.

In the war, there was no defeat, and the morale was still there, so we could still fight. More importantly, these more than 600 Song troops were Du Chong's own army.

That's right. The two thousand soldiers who died in Naiheguan were basically Fan Qiong's Imperial Camp officers and Kong Yanzhou's Qiong's elite troops. Du Chong's headquarters had more than 1,300 soldiers, and except for 300 auxiliary soldiers, he handed over them to him.

In addition to Kong Yanzhou's command, the remaining 1,000 people were stationed in Jingxing Pass, and 500 people set up camp at Naihe Pass. He killed his life and death on the mountain, but the loss of his troops was not his. But if he had any contribution, he would naturally be his.

Right Prime Minister and Chief Master Du Chong are extremely skilled in playing this trick. Fan Qiong and Kong Yanzhou are not the ones who don’t know Du Chong’s play, but they are several levels of official position. There is nothing they can do.

Du Chong is okay to make plans. He led his army to break through and fight and leave, which is not something that he is a person who is good at pen and tricks. Therefore, it is his commander of this remnant army.

He is a commander Huo Ming.

Huo Ming was born into the Eight Character Army and was originally the commander of Sang Zhong. Later, he rebelled with Sang Zhong. When he besieged Li Baozhai, he was defeated by Zhang Rong's Tianbo Navy. Sang Zhong was killed. Huo Ming led his remaining troops to escape.

Later, it became the dominance of Du Chong's tent. In the history of another time and space, Huo Ming first betrayed and then surrendered, and finally killed Sang Zhong's head and surrendered to the Song Dynasty. However, in this time and space, this opportunity was deprived of Yan Qilang, and Huo Ming could only

After following Du Chong's butt in shame, he stumbled.

Huo Ming was born in the Eight Character Army and had some tricks. These remaining soldiers were subordinates and had no obstacles in command. Although they were repeatedly attacked by Jin army whistle cavalry along the way, they were able to repel one by one and were not defeated.

The most dangerous time was that a team of golden cavalry in Xingzhou raided dozens of Song soldiers. At a critical moment, the one who saved the defeat was actually the thunder bullet of the Tianzhu Army!

Kong Yanzhou selected one musket from the spoils, three thunderbolts, and presented it to Du Chong for fun. After Du Chong for fun, he handed over the thunderbolts to his personal soldiers. The musket was satisfied with Huo Ming's performance and rewarded him.

Chong is a literati after all. Literature is born to reject "strange tricks". Muskets and thunderbolts, such powerful weapons that are enough to change the form and process of war, are just equivalent to powerful weapons such as Divine Arm Bow and Thunderbolt Fireball.

In the Song Dynasty, which civil officials would take the Divine Arm Bow and the Thunderbolt Fireball seriously? So it is not surprising that Du Chong has such an attitude.

At a critical moment, Du Chong's personal soldiers threw three thunderbolt bombs in one breath, killing and injuring five or six people. The rest of the golden cavalry were all shocked and retreated.

This was the first time Huo Ming saw the power of the Thunderbolt Bomb. He was shocked and felt very sorry: "It's a pity that such a powerful weapon has only three..."

"Prince, the rule is not good. Five miles away from the right wing, I found a large number of cavalry in the Tianzhu Army!"

"What?!" Du Chong jumped up like a firecracker, grabbed the hard detective with his chest, and sprayed his saliva on the other party's face, "How do you know it is the Tianzhu Army? Why is it not the Jin army? Only the Jin army has a large number of cavalry..."

The hard detective didn't dare to wipe his face: "I saw that there was a Tianzhu army flag, exactly the same as the flag of Jingxing Pass..."

Du Chong pushed away the hard tent and glared at Taiyuan: "Good you Di Lie! He actually chased Baili, and he would not give anyone a way to survive... Damn! He hateful!"

Du Chong suddenly turned his head: "General Huo!"

"Subordinate is here."

"I will give you all the military soldiers and hold on to me for half a day. Even if all the military soldiers are exhausted, as long as you are still alive, I will return to Jiankang, and I will recommend you as the governor of Zhongzhou, the right Wu Doctor, and the Jiankang Army.

The commander-in-chief is absolutely free.”

Huo Ming was surprised and said, this was a fifth-rank high-priced military position. He jumped from an intermediate general to a high-level general. Moreover, there was a right-right in the court... He fought a war and gained a fortune and had a future!

"The whole team! Form a formation!" Huo Ming's voice seemed to be injected with chicken blood. He swung far away in the Hebei Plain.

Seeing the bleak and anxious remnants on the plain trying to make a defensive posture, Ling Yuan and Liang Xing breathed a long breath and finally caught up with them-although they rode their horses far faster than walking, but they escaped as they please.

Run away when there is a road. But the chasing people have to stop and stop, search for traces, and adjust their directions at any time. Especially this is still an enemy-occupied area, so they have to be cautious, so they have to chase for more than 200 miles before they can be considered

Blocked.

The Song army was not stupid either. The entire army relied on a sparse forest as a backing to prevent being attacked from being attacked from all sides. The formation formed was the most regular round formation in the regular formation. There were less than 500 Song troops remaining, and they surrounded them in four layers.

In the circle, the formation is the handsome flag, as well as its subordinate Du Chong and Huo Ming.

When the eight hundred hunters rolled up smoke and dust in the sky, like a giant shark surrounding it from all directions, you can clearly see the fear and despair on the faces of the Song soldiers.

Ling Yuan held the whip tightly, and his body gently undulated with the horse's velocity. He stared at the figure of the brocade fur in the Song army formation and said to Liang Xing beside him: "The enemy is already timid, but he can get closer and cut little by little."

Strike, break the enemy."

Liang Xing put down his telescope, thought for a while, and said, "The range of the Eagle-Bee Gun is too close. If the enemy has archers, it will hurt the brothers. I have a way to end the war without hurting one person."

Ling Yuan was surprised: "What good advice do Commander Liang have?"

Liang Xing asked replies without answering: "Du Chong, are you going to die or live?"

"Die!" Ling Yuan almost thought without hesitation.

Before the hunting soldiers set off, the General Staff had discussed whether Du Chong was better or alive. There were many benefits to living. Not to mention that he was captured and handed over to the Zhao Song royal family, he could invite people to buy their hearts. Du Chong was the only one who was given to the Yan Dynasty.

The right prime minister of Shangshu Youpushe and Ping Zhangshi can play many important roles and become a powerful tool to deal with the Jianyan Dynasty in the future.

But Di Lie and Ling Yuan’s conclusion is very simple: as long as Du Chong is dead!

Ling Yuan’s reason was that because of Du Chong’s special identity, once captured alive, there would be a lot of civil officials in Tianshu City oppose the punishment of the death penalty. Even if forced orders were executed, it would cause turmoil in the civil servant system, which was a self-inflicted move.

Unless the General Staff of Cinene concludes that Du Chong is not killed but used, can Du Chong not be killed?

"You must kill!" Di Lie issued a decisive killing order, "I don't care what kind of benefits he will bring to me, some things must be done!"

Liang Xing nodded: "Okay, my method is OK."

Liang Xing's method is to dispatch a sniper team.

Originally, after completing the training, the sniper team had to serve as Di Lie's guard, but Di Lie believed that this unit still needed to gain more experience and merit in actual combat. Therefore, the sniper team was temporarily included in the hunting camp.

Sequence, participate in various combat missions of the Hunting Battalion.

Thirty snipers took out the extended musket from the holster on the saddle, installed it with a scope, calibrated the ruler, poured the gunpowder into the barrel, and then pushed the rotor bullet into the barrel with a long rod, and finally the plate

Open the hammer and sprinkle the introductory medicine into the medicine room.

Thirty cavalrymen, holding guns in one hand, spread out to form a half-encircle, slowly approaching the Song army.

The Song army surrounded four floors, the first floor was holding a knife and a card, the second floor was holding a simple wooden gun, and the fourth floor was holding a bow and crossbow. Du Chong's army was equipped with good equipment.

In order to prevent the Song army's bows and arrows, the sniper cavalry not only put on two layers of armor, but also put on equipment for war horses, and their posture was a bit close to the "Iron Pagoda" of the Jin army.

The visual impact and psychological pressure of heavy armored cavalry on infantry was indeed not covered. The Song soldiers, whose morale was already unstable, instinctively retreated to the center of the circular formation, squeezing the gap in the center of the circular formation more and more.

Seeing the enemy cavalry getting closer, Huo Ming ordered loudly: "Shoot the arrow!"

A hundred arrows were shot at the same time, and they hit the sniper cavalry and war horses. As a result, only two horses were shot and injured, and all the sniper cavalry were damaged. The Qing Party Armor was indeed well-known and could not be seen through the powerful arrows, let alone the bows and arrows.

It’s a pity that there are not many such exquisite armor tools, otherwise people would rush up to step on the formation.

The Song army fired arrows within fifty steps, and the straight-line distance between the sniper cavalry and the commander flag in the formation was also narrowed to eighty steps.

I have to say that neither Du Chong nor Huo Ming had any experience in fighting against the Tianzhu Army musketeers, so I didn’t know what the safe distance was from the musketeers. I didn’t know what the safe distance was from the sniper.

How much? This kind of lack of understanding is destined to have their tragic ending.

As soon as he stepped into the distance of eighty steps from the center of the circular array, the thirty snipers all placed the raised muzzle flat, locking the target, aiming, and squeezing the machine in a very short time...

Bang bang bang! Smoke was shrouding, and the war horse Hui Yuyu neighed and took several steps back.

In the center of the Song army's round formation, under the commanding flag, Du Chong and Huo Ming's body were covered with blood at the same time, and they fell down with a hump and could not get up again.

The commander and the general died in the formation at the same time. Is this battle still necessary? More than 400 Song soldiers scattered in a hurry. What awaited them was the sad ending of the cavalry chasing them.
To be continued...
