After the Song army entered the city, Bi Zaiyu had no time to spare, and regardless of his own bloodstains, he immediately bowed to the two main generals who rescued the people and horses, and said: "Two generals, today we were able to fight our way out of the encirclement and return to Xinzhou, thanks to the two generals who arrived in time to rescue each other." 〈 Bayi Chinese >>>.〕8}1〕Z]}.)C] OM is so great I will never forget it when I meet it again, I don't know that the two generals have their names and are from there. ”

Liu Fuwu and Zhang Shiyan also came over at this time to greet these two generals.

The two generals glanced at each other, their expressions seemed to be a little embarrassed, and one of them hurriedly bowed to Bi Zaiyu and said: "Bi Zhenfu said that he really killed the last general, and the last general is the commander of the army in front of the palace, see Bi Zhenfu." ”

Another person also bowed his hand and said: "The last general is Xie Dongming, the commander of the front and rear army of the palace, see Bi Zhenfu." ”

After Bi Zaiyu, Liu Fuwu, and Zhang Shiyan heard this, they were all very surprised, because the front army and the rear army of the front division of the palace are now subordinates of Liu Bao, how did the two of them get here? And where is Liu Bao now?

Bi Zaiyu hurriedly asked, "Then how did the two generals come?" Where is Liu Jie's envoy now? Please tell us the truth. ”

Zhang Xun and Xie Dongming glanced at each other again, and suddenly knelt in front of Bi Zaiyu together, and said in unison: "The last general deserves death, and I ask Bi Zhen to forgive the sin." ”

Bi Zai was stunned, and hurriedly picked up the two of them and said, "Two generals, please make your words clear." ”

Only then did the two explain what had happened in the past. It turned out that Liu Bao led the men and horses to stop thirty miles south of Yongfeng, and ordered the soldiers to set up camp and go down to the village. The soldiers had just set up camp and started to bury their pots and cook food. Liu Bao was sitting in the big tent drinking water, and suddenly Zhang Xun came into the tent to report, saying that there were Jin soldiers and horses in the upper reaches of Yongfeng River, and they were rushing towards the Song army.

When Liu Bao heard this, he couldn't help but be shocked, and hurriedly followed Zhang Xun out of the big tent to watch. At this time, it was already dusk, and I saw smoke and dust rising in the distance in the north, rolling up the yellow dust in the sky, and dyeing the blood-colored remnant sun into a gray-yellow. In the yellow dust, countless knives and guns shone dazzlingly in the afterglow of the setting sun, like a dense forest. The sound of horses' hooves stomping on the ground was like rolling thunder towards the Song army, which had just set up camp.

Liu Bao's face changed greatly, and he hurriedly ordered: "It's not good, we have fallen for the plan of the Jin army, and the whole army retreats." ”

Zhang Xun, who was standing beside him, was shocked and hurriedly said: "Lord Jie, we must not retreat at this time. What's more, we can resist for a while if we set up a camp, as long as we stick to the camp, and order someone to go to Bi Zhenfu in Xinzhou for help, as long as we wait for Bi Zhenfu's men and horses to arrive, and attack inside and outside, we can break the Jin army. If we withdraw our troops, we will be defeated, and the Jin army will inevitably pursue and kill behind, and our army will be defeated. Therefore, we can only hold out in the battalion, and we must not retreat. ”

At this time, Xie Dongming also came to Liu Bao and said, "Yes, the commander of the chapter is right, Liu Jie, we must not retreat." As long as the envoy sticks to Dazhai, the last general is willing to lead the army to meet the battle and fight to the death with the Jin army. ”

Both of them turned out to be under the command of the front division of the palace, watching the other Song armies fight fiercely with the Jin army under the leadership of Yang Yan, Bi Zaiyu, Li Xianzhong and others. However, after following Liu Bao, he ran away when he saw Jin Jun, and he didn't fight a battle. The military general is also a person who wants to have a face, and he feels that it is not a taste in his heart, and he feels inferior when he sees his former comrades.

Therefore, this time they sent troops, and both of them praised their strength, and they wanted to have a big battle with the Jin army, and they also wanted people to know that they were not bad breeds. Knowing that Liu Bao was going to retreat when he saw the Jin army coming, the two of them couldn't help it, so they advised Liu Bao.

Liu Bao was displeased, and said: "This is all Bi Zaiyu's self-righteousness, if he hadn't set up any strategy to flank the Jin army, we wouldn't have been ambushed by the Jin army here, and wait for Bi Zaiyu to save us?" I'm afraid that before Bi Zai Yu arrived here, we would be the ghosts of the Jin army, and retreat immediately while the Jin army had not surrounded us. ”

Zhang Xun persuaded bitterly: "Envoy Liu, there is still a glimmer of life here to stay, once you retreat, the whole army will be wiped out." ”

Xie Dongming also said: "Lord Liu, if you must retreat, then leave the two of us to guard here, block the Jin army for you, and cover the retreat of the army." ”

Liu Bao was furious and said sharply: "You don't need to say it, this is a general order, whoever dares not to withdraw, this commander will not be spared." ”

As early as when Wanyan Changzhi sent troops to attack Xinzhou, it was decided that this time it was actually pretending to attack Xinzhou, but in fact it was to attract the surrounding Song troops to come to the rescue, and then set up an ambush halfway to eliminate the reinforcements, which was a plan to besiege the city and send reinforcements. Therefore, while Wanyan Changzhi was fighting with Bi Zaiyu in Shinzhou, he also sent people to pay close attention to the movements in Pucheng, Dexing, Longxingfu and other places.

Therefore, as soon as Liu Bao and Cao Xun left the army, Wanyan Changzhi immediately got the news. He also decided to fight Liu Bao's men first, because although Liu Bao had many men and horses, Wanyan Changzhi knew that Liu Bao was a timid man and would never dare to fight to the death with the Jin army. Therefore, he left Wanyan Kuang and Hezhuda to hold the Xinzhou camp, personally led 10,000 horses, and ordered Guo Xiajiao, who was stationed in Yushan, to lead 20,000 horses, and transferred 10,000 horses from Yongfeng, a total of 40,000 troops were gathered, and an ambush was set up on the road 20 miles away from Yongfeng.

Knowing that Liu Bao's timidity was far beyond Yan Changzhi's expectations, he actually set up camp more than thirty miles away from Yongfeng, and no longer advanced, and actually did not enter the ambush circle of the Jin army. After Yan Changzhi received the report, he also laughed, but at this time there was no other way, so he had to order the ambush army to kill together and attack the Song army's Dazhai.

In fact, at this time, the camp of the Song army was set up by the scriptures, and the Song army had a lot of troops, so it was completely possible to follow Zhang Xun and Xie Dongming's method to defend the camp to the death, waiting for the rescuers to arrive, and attack inside and outside, even if they could not win, they would not be defeated. But Liu Bao was afraid of the enemy like a tiger, did not listen to Zhang Xun and Xie Dongming's words, and as soon as he saw that the Jin army was killed, he immediately ordered to retreat. He was the first to mount his horse and fled south.

The main generals fled, and the rest of the Song army naturally had no fighting spirit, although Zhang Xun and Xie Dongming had the intention to fight a decisive battle with the Jin army, but they could not do anything at this time, so they had to lead the men and horses to flee with Liu Bao. By the time the Jin army reached the Song army's camp, it was almost an empty camp.

Seeing Liu Bao fleeing in defeat, Wanyan Changzhi couldn't help laughing, and immediately ordered Guo Xiajiao to lead 5,000 cavalry to pursue the Song army. He led the rest of the men and horses to immediately rush back to the Yongfeng camp and set up an ambush again, preparing to ambush the men and horses that he met again.

After Guo received the order, he led 5,000 men and horses to pursue the Song army. Because the Song army did not run far, and Guo Shrimp Toad brought all the cavalry, so it didn't take long for the Jin army to catch up with the Song army, and then cover up.

Although this group of men and horses is not a broken arrow army or an iron floating map, it is also the elite men and horses of the Jin Kingdom, all of them are skilled in riding and shooting, and they are fan-shaped, chasing the rear team of the Song army for more than 20 steps, and they fire their bows and arrows together.

At this time, the Song army was routed on all fronts, and there was no power to resist, and countless Song soldiers who fell behind were shot by the arrows of the Jin army and fell to the ground with a miserable scream. Even if there were some Song soldiers who were not killed by arrows, what awaited them was the ruthless trampling of the Jin army's iron cavalry. The Song soldiers who were not hit by the arrows were all panicked, and the Song soldiers on horseback hit their horses like flying, but the vast majority of the Song soldiers were infantry, and they also rushed forward to run forward, for fear that they would fall behind and be shot to death by the Jin army. Suddenly, people pushed people, people squeezed people, chaos was unbearable, trampled on each other, and countless dead and injured people.

But the infantry ran faster than the cavalry, and the Jin army did not relax at all in pursuit of the rear of the Song army, shooting arrows, spears, slashing, and horses, wantonly chasing and killing the Song army. Along the road were the corpses of Song Jun.

Liu Bao didn't care about others at this time, and took more than 100 personal soldiers to fight and gallop desperately. Many Song soldiers also scattered in all directions, and each fled for his life. Guo also scattered the Jin army into several teams, each pursuing the Song army. He personally led more than 1,000 people and horses to pursue Liu Bao closely. Liu Bao was so frightened that he ran out of the road for more than 20 miles in one go, until he reached the side of Wuyi Mountain. The mountain road is steep, the war horse can not go up the mountain, Liu Bao abandoned the horse and threw the armor, and pedaled the mountain on foot, which was very embarrassing. And the Jin army is all cavalry, and it is inconvenient to pedal the mountain, so I gave up.

At this time, Zhang Xun and Xie Dongming had already left Liu Bao with a team of men and horses and fled to the southwest. Because the Jin army mainly pursued Liu Bao, they didn't keep an eye on them, so they gradually got rid of the Jin army's pursuit, and then stopped. After collecting the defeated army, there were still three or four thousand men and horses.

Both of them felt that this battle was very defeated, because it was not that they couldn't defeat the Jin army, but they had never fought with the Jin army, so they were defeated all the way down. Later, as soon as the two discussed, they didn't want to continue to follow Liu Bao, so they decided to lead the defeated army to Xinzhou to defect to Bi Zaiyu. However, he was afraid of the Jin soldiers, so he didn't dare to walk during the day, so he had to wait until the evening to take the men and horses and take the path to Shinshu.

After walking all night, many defeated troops were collected along the road, and a total of more than 6,000 people were gathered. When it was almost dawn, I walked near Yongfeng and heard the sound of fierce fighting.

Because it was dark and they couldn't see clearly, the two didn't know what army was fighting fiercely, they had too few men and horses, and they were afraid of being ambushed by the Jin army, so they decided to stop first and wait for the battle to finish before leaving. As a result, it was not until dawn that I saw that it was the Jin army that surrounded the Song army. also saw that the Song army was under the banner of Bi Zaiyu. Only then did the two understand that it must be Bi Zaiyu who sent troops to attack Yongfeng according to the agreement, and Liu Bao was the first to escape, but instead he was surrounded by the Jin army, and he was about to be wiped out.

The two discussed it again and decided to go to the rescue and meet again. Their more than 6,000 horses were also holding back the fire in their bellies, and they rushed and struck, just when they hit and the Jin army was caught off guard, and Bi Zai encountered internal and external attacks, and finally broke out of the encirclement.
