Chapter 753: Cavalry Like the Wind

Yang Zaixing finally chose not to attack Chenzhou, he felt that he had too few soldiers and horses, and it was not suitable for attacking Chenzhou, even if all the other soldiers and horses arrived, Chenzhou was not a top priority. In the final analysis, the troops are still a little insufficient, and the total number of troops in the three routes this time is only 50,000, and the others still have to follow General Niu to resist the Chai army. Therefore, if you want to solve it quickly, it is impossible, and you can only figure it out slowly. First slowly cut off Zhao Kai's wings in various parts of Chenzhou, eat the rebels' vital force little by little, and wait for Zhao Kai's forces to weaken, and then attack Chenzhou, which will definitely get twice the result with half the effort.

"You can return to the various departments, restrain the soldiers and horses, tomorrow, all the men and horses will pull out the camp to the east, and light up the banner, sound the gongs and drums, I am going to tell Qin Ming, we are going to fight Chenzhou. Then wait for General Han's soldiers and horses to arrive, hum, and then kill the horse pistol, let Qin Minggou know the strength of my Dingguo army" Yang Zaixing ordered, and all the generals agreed in unison, only Sanniang had a tense face, and she couldn't see any expression, all she had in her heart was Song Jiang, and the others had already been put aside. Yang Zaixing has a headache, Sanniang is like this now, as if she has just returned to the days when she just followed His Royal Highness, not smiling, like a dead person.

Early the next morning, Yang Zaixing's army beat gongs and drums, and swaggered towards the east with banners. Qin Ming, who was hiding in Xihua County, was so anxious that he walked around the house, now who in the Great Song Dynasty didn't know Yang Zaixing's name, this Yang Shaolie, who followed Zhao Yougong in the palace, was not only brave, but also approached Han Shizhong in the art of war, and now he clearly told everyone to go to Chenzhou, but the more so. Qin Mingyue couldn't believe it. No one knows what kind of medicine Yang Zaixing sells in this gourd. Qin Ming didn't think that Yang Zaixing would kill him. Attack Xihua County with all his might, because he thinks that there is no point in doing that, if the army is really besieging Xihua County, just pull the banner and leave, anyway, there is no need to fight to the death. Could it be that someone Yang really wants to attack Chenzhou? The possibility is very small, but Yang Zaixing's army did not stop for a day, just when everyone thought that Yang Zaixing was really going to wave his troops in Chenzhou, who would have thought that this Dingguo army would suddenly go north. Straight to the northeast of the city, the city is a small city, not visible mountains and no leakage, located in the southwest of Yingtianfu more than 60 miles, no one pays attention to the broken county on weekdays, now it is different.

When Wu Yong learned that Yang Zaixing waved his troops to expand the city, his face turned pale with shock, and he almost pulled off a few beards. Yang is really vicious, and he sees the weakness of the prince army at a glance, and the prince army is not as good as the Dingguo army. The Dingguo Army has a deep foundation, even if it gives up the foundation of Gyeonggi Road. There is also a large area of land in the central and northwest as a foundation, but what about the prince's army? can't stand the toss, Yang someone attacked Tuocheng, this is to directly cut off the connection between the base camp Ying Tianfu and all kinds of soldiers and horses, so ruthless Yang Zaixing. In a hurry, Wu Yong hurriedly mobilized Zhang Tianze's troops to aid Tuocheng, in short, Yang Zaixing's conspiracy must not be allowed to succeed. However, as soon as Zhang Tianze's soldiers and horses left, Wu Yong began to wonder again, did Yang Zaixing really want to expand the city? Half of Yang Zaixing's troops are cavalry, and the terrain of Tuocheng is complicated, which is not conducive to cavalry combat. Suddenly, Wu Yong seemed to think of something, he didn't care about the majesty of the military division, and ran into the handsome tent in a hurry, "Brother, the big thing is not good, quickly order Qin Ming to withdraw his troops and return to Zhoukou to garrison, otherwise the situation will be dangerous." ”

Why is it dangerous? In fact, it is very simple, because of Yang Zaixing's cavalry. Among the Dingguo army, there are three people who are the best at cavalry combat, Wu Jue is good at infantry and cavalry combination, large-scale combat, Yelusha is good at commanding Tiefutu, which should be used as a bulwark for the army, and Yang Zaixing's cavalry is the best at raiding. More than 10,000 elite cavalry, if they raid Xihua County, and then cooperate with other Dingguo troops, the effect can be imagined. Stupid, how did you forget Yang Zaixing's best trick? Wu Yong's reaction was fast enough, could the fast horses from Chenzhou to Xihua County compare to Yang Zaixing's cavalry? At this time, Yang Zaixing had already led tens of thousands of cavalry under his command to the west, and this time the Dingguo Army changed its previous slow and leisurely appearance, which was as fast as wind and thunder. On the same day and night, Han Shizhong, who got Yang Zaixing's military report, took the lead in attacking the northern city wall of Xihua County, Qin Ming didn't know what to do, and he also commanded soldiers and horses to defend the city, planning to rely on the strong city wall to consume Han Shizhong's soldiers and horses, but where did he know that Yang Zaixing's cavalry was less than ten miles away from Xihua County at this time. Ten miles, for an elite cavalry, it is simply a blink of an eye, Yang Zaixing did not rush to Xihua County, but waited, the army rested, and waited until Xihua County was in the middle of a fierce battle, before ordering to attack Xihua County. Now that Qin Ming's troops are fighting fiercely, Qin Ming himself has put all his energy on Han Shizhong, so Yang Zaixing didn't even touch a horse along the way, let alone stop it. Yang Zaixing's waiting had an effect, and he turned his tens of thousands of cavalry into ghosts in the night, attacking at will.

"Hit, brothers, hit hard, shoot these reckless men in Guanzhong" Qin Ming's eyes widened, his face was full of hideousness, the injuries he gave him by the Dingguo Army back then will be recovered today. I have to say that Qin Ming really has two brushes in the war, Han Shizhong has been attacking for most of the hour, and he has a little headache, speaking of which Qin Ming is also a talent. But alas, this person can't use it.

In Luda's words, Qin Ming is a reckless man with a cold nature and no flesh and blood. Song Jiang designed to frame him like that, but how did Qin Ming do it, with Song Jiang going up the mountain, two days after his wife and children died, he happily married Hua Rong's sister as his wife under Song Jiang's Zhang Luo. I really don't understand Qin Ming, as long as he has a little conscience, even if he can't take revenge at that time, at least he won't be in the same league with Song Jiang, no matter what, then Song Jiang is the culprit who caused the tragic death of his family. But Qin Ming, he didn't do this at all, who would dare to use this kind of person who didn't even care about the life and death of his wife and children? Anyway, Han Shizhong won't keep it, and if he gives this kind of person to His Highness, wouldn't that harm His Highness?

Qin Ming is not available, but he has great talents, and at this time, Han Shizhong has already made up his mind that he must not let Qin Ming leave Chenzhou alive, and must find an opportunity to do it. Qin Ming resisted Han Shizhong, just when he was in a high mood, suddenly an urgent report poured a basin of cold water on him, "General Qin, General Qin's big thing is not good, the south gate is broken, and a lot of cavalry rushed in"

The soldier was so tired that he couldn't even say a word. Qin Ming was stunned. My head was buzzing. What's going on? Where did the cavalry come from? But soon, he figured it out, smashed the mace on the battlements, jumped to his feet and scolded, "Yang Zaixing, raised by a son of a bitch, is really insidious, you are evil this time, brothers." Don't fight, Lin Fu, you take people to burn down the treasury, don't leave any of the national army, and the rest will withdraw with the general, don't delay. ”

Yang Zaixing's brigade of cavalry was like entering a no-man's land, killing all the way from the south city gate, only killing Qin Ming's soldiers and horses crying father and mother, and did not even have the courage to resist. However, what made Yang Zaixing depressed was that he still didn't catch Qin Ming in the end. The black light was blind, and he didn't know which direction Qin Ming was running in. Han Shizhong entered Xihua County. After listening to Yang Zaixing's report on the results, he also sighed a pity, this is a good opportunity to kill Qin Ming, this opportunity was not grasped, and it will be difficult to use this trick next time Qin Ming has a defense.

The day after Yang Zaixing and Han Shizhong took Xihua County, Wu Jue's troops also captured Xiping County in Caizhou, so far the three-way army of the Dingguo Army has been fully engaged in the battle against Zhao Kai, the king of Yun. In fact, all the generals of the Dingguo Army knew that the war could not be delayed, although it could not be resolved quickly, but it was necessary to eliminate the rebels as much as possible, and on July 28, Zhao Yougong led Mu Wanqing and Han Shizhong's army to converge.

On July 29, Yingzhou Yingshang County, the commander of the soldiers and horses of Shanzhou, Ma Tian's department after capturing Wanshou County, did not stop and went directly to the south, because the rebels were menacing, the governor of Yingzhou did not resist, and directly led his troops to surrender, and the commander of the soldiers and horses of Yingzhou was also assassinated, causing the rebels to enter Yingzhou as if they were walking on the ground, without encountering the slightest resistance, directly crossed Yingzhou, and went south to defeat Jiangling Town. When everyone thought that Ma Tian would quickly defeat Yingshang County and enter Jiangning Mansion, Ma Tian ran into a bag in Yingshang County. Because he did not taste defeat in Yingzhou, Ma Tian was a little flustered, and he didn't take Yingshang County seriously at all, Yingzhou was defeated, and he was afraid of the small Yingshang County, but it was this small Yingshang County that made Ma Tian suffer. On the same day, the siege of the city for an hour, directly injured more than 2,000 soldiers and horses, this time Ma Tian had to take it seriously, before ordering a truce, while asking for reinforcements from Chenzhou, while beginning to explore the situation in Yingshang County. It's ridiculous to say, the dignified general of the army has attacked Yingshang County, but he doesn't know who the defender of Yingshang County is, let alone how many guards there are. Ma Tian, I am really arrogant.

Ma Tian hit a wall, let people inquire about the situation, and soon the news reached Ma Tian's ears, it turned out that the guard of Yingshang County at this time turned out to be Liang Fangluo, the commander of the soldiers and horses of Jiangning Mansion, and 5,000 soldiers of Jiangning Mansion. Hearing that it was Liang Fangluo's Jiangning Mansion soldiers and horses, Ma Tianqi frowned, "Liang Fangluo, this old horseman, Ma Someone doesn't go to Jiangning Mansion to trouble you, you actually kill yourself, then don't blame Ma for being unkind." ”

Ma Tian is quite familiar with Liang Fangluo, all because Liang Fangluo has a good granddaughter, when Liang Hongyu collided with King Qin, she was still a yellow-haired girl, but in a few years, she was like a flower, sassy and charming, and once looked for someone to talk to the matchmaker, but Liang Fangluo, an old horseman, refused directly, and said that the daughter of the Liang family is not a villain. If you don't marry, you won't marry, and you still say that someone is a villain, and the new and old hatreds are combined, how can you not be angry? Without waiting for reinforcements to arrive, Ma Tian launched another onslaught on Yingshang County at noon.

On the city wall, a middle-aged man in black armor held a steel knife and kept slashing and killing the siege rebels, fighting for a long time, and it was already bloodstained, this man was Liang Fangluo's son Liang Jianzong. Several rebels climbed to the top of the city, the target was directly aimed at Liang Jianzong, due to exhaustion, Liang Jianzong was very difficult to deal with, seeing that the rebels were about to succeed, only to hear a coquettish reprimand, a spear poked out, directly provoked two rebels. With that coquettish reprimand, a woman in red armor can be seen, her long hair is pulled up, she wears a wooden hairpin on her head, and a pair of apricot eyes are heroic. This woman is none other than Liang Hongyu, a girl from the Liang family.

The rebels are attacking the city more and more, the soldiers and horses of Jiangning Mansion have suffered heavy injuries, and even Liang Jianzong himself has suffered a lot of injuries, bandaged his wounds, and with the support of Liang Hongyu, he came to Yingshang County and County Ya, "Dad, what should I do now, the sons and daughters have suffered heavy casualties, and if we go down here, I am afraid that they will all be buried here, or let's withdraw, withdraw to Jiangning Mansion first, and then make plans." ”

As soon as Liang Jianzong finished speaking, Liang Fangluo was stunned and scolded, "Fart, thousands of children, you can say withdraw, but you can't." If it weren't for His Royal Highness the King of Qin, I am afraid that my Liang family would have already become the soul of someone else's sword, and now His Royal Highness is in trouble, if my Liang family does not swear to repay each other, what face will there be to live in the world? ”

When Fang La was conquest of Fang La, if it weren't for Zhao Yougong to find out the truth, Liang Fangluo's father and son would have been beheaded, where would they still be the commander of the soldiers and horses of Jiangning Mansion? So all along, Liang Fangluo has been grateful for Zhao Yougong's kindness, no matter what others say about the regent, in short, he Liang Fanglue is to swear allegiance to the regent, at least, the regent is sincere for the well-being of the Great Song Dynasty.

At this time, it is completely possible to evacuate Yingshang County, but Liang Fangluo does not want to do this, once his Jiangning Mansion soldiers and horses withdraw from Yingshang County, the rebels can go south directly and leave Yingzhou, that is just a fish into the sea, and they can toss as much as they want. Holding Yingshang County will be able to trap the rebels on Gyeonggi Road, which will be easier to exterminate, and it will never be easier to abandon Yingshang County and let the rebels wander and cause chaos, and it will never be easier than the Fangla rebellion back then. was scolded by Liang Fangluo, Liang Jianzong didn't say anything anymore, and returned to the city, at this time the rebels stopped attacking the city, and Ma Tian actually let people shout under the city, "Liang Fangluo, if you know each other and let go of the city gate quickly, you can still let go for the sake of the red jade girl at that time, otherwise if you attack the city, you will definitely leave the Liang family chickens and dogs." ”

Liang Hongyu lay on the battlements and listened, listening to Ma Tian's arrogant words, she scolded the city with a red face, "Ma Tianji, my aunt will not marry you even if she marries a dog, you will die of this heart." ”

Ma Tian's face was blue when he was scolded, didn't he scold him that someone was not as good as a dog? Returning Ma Tian Chicken, it is simply insulting, "Little Niangpi, you wait, you wait, brothers, attack the city, whoever can take the city will reward him with a hundred taels of gold!" ”

Xihua County, Zhao Yougong and the generals discussed how to act next, but at this time, an urgent report completely disrupted the previous deployment, looking at the military report, Zhao Yougong frowned, a little happy and a little worried, "Everyone, just got the military report, Liang Fangluo led the soldiers and horses of Jiangning Mansion to resist Ma Tian in Yingshang County, I hope that our department can quickly send reinforcements, attack inside and outside, and break Ma Tian's department."
