Chapter 70: Peach Blossoms

To the south of Yaojiagou, Sun Zhuang's troops were defeated, and Ning Zechen led his troops in pursuit. Zhou Pu changed back into his armor, led the armor-clad light cavalry detachment to protrude from Meiqiu, killed Sun Zhuang's flank array, and then spun around and walked northwest.

At this time, the west of Suining City was also fighting endlessly, Liu Miaozhen led the horse out of Qinglonggang, wanting to help Sun Pole, but to the west of Suining's Changshan battalion and two hundred heavy cavalry to intercept the way, the two sides fought hard in front of the ancient city of Xiapi.

Suining lives under Pi County, also known as Xia Pi, the previous city was washed away by floods in the early years, and a new city was built, before it was renamed Suining. The ruins of the ancient city are still there, the ruined walls are in ruins, standing in Suining City is only six or seven miles, standing at the head of Suining City, you can see the battlefield that is unfolding here to fight.

Liu Miaozhen is also helpless.

Sun Gongzi rushed out of Suyu to lead his troops, she did not lead his troops to attack, Sun Gongzi gave the Jiangdong Left Army a flank to intercept, and it was undoubtedly defeated.

Besides, more than 80,000 exiled troops have formed a stagnation in Suining, and it is not to go, nor is it to stay, and the certainty of succeeding in the strong attack on Suining is too low.

If there is no war, the dilemma will be difficult to solve; After a narrow victory, Suining and Suyu can be connected, and the exiled army can still get together, or go or stay, there is room for manoeuvre.

The key is that the East China Sea Fox Forest Binding Department is actually the leader of all the soldiers and horses in Jiangdong County, and defeating the Jiangdong Left Army can deter other soldiers and horses in Jiangdong County from not daring to move easily, so they need a respite.

Under the current situation, Liu Miaozhen has to fight.

However, the Jiangdong Left Army was strong and brave, the soldiers were strong, and the generals were afraid, and they all said war, but they were reluctant to open the camp and send troops. As a last resort, Liu Miaozhen could only lead her and more than 10,000 elite people from Ma Lantou's department to go out of Qinglonggang and rush down to the ruined city first.

Ma Lantou restrained the rest of the more than 10,000 people as the rear army, and dragged them behind.

Lin Tie made Qin Chengzu to control the Huai army on his behalf, and Ao Canghai led the elite armor of the Changshan battalion to the front of the ruined city of Xiapi, and he led the armored cavalry, sword and shield auxiliaries and escort cavalry to stand in front of the two formations.

With the current situation of the Exile Army, Liu Miaozhen can only put all her hopes on this battle. Rushing to the ruined city of Xiapi, she caused the whole army to start a fierce battle, and she personally led the red armor cavalry to rush left and right.

The remnants of the Duhuai Army were also a rare elite soldier in the world, and after being transferred to Suining, they were further strengthened in armament. However, the military attache system of the remnants of the Duhuai Army has not been improved in a short period of time, and it is still one line behind the elite of the Changshan Battalion of the Jiangdong Left Army.

Liu Miaozhen had excellent eyesight, and when she was engaged, she saw that the left wing of the Huai Army was weaker, and it was easy to form a breakthrough gap, so she led the elite to storm the side corner of the Huai Army array, wanting to break this corner first, drive the rout to the inner line, and disrupt the entire formation of the Jiangdong Left Army.

Liu Miaozhen was wearing crimson armor, and there were only two or three hundred cavalrymen wearing the same color armor behind her, but the combat power that broke out was particularly amazing.

The Duhuai army is all old pawns, different from new pawns.

If the new pawn is defeated, he will subconsciously turn around and flee, leaving an unresisting back for people to cover up, while the old pawn is different, even if he is scattered, he can understand the sound of the war drums, he can see the flag, as long as the war drums are not chaotic, as long as the main general does not fall, he can still maintain the will to fight, he can hold a group of three or five people, find favorable terrain, resist stubbornly, and wait for the reinforcements to come over.

The old soldier is very rare, and he can select and train a group of military attachés with tactical literacy, and Lin Jian is of course reluctant to consume too much.

After receiving the report that Sun Zhuang was captured in Yaojiagou, his troops had been defeated, Zhou Pu led the light cavalry to arrive later, and Ning Zechen would also go to the battlefield here in the fastest time.

Lin Jian sent out 200 armor cavalry and 400 sword and shield auxiliaries left as reserves in his hand to attack from the outside of the Duhuai army, so that the armor cavalry was half-pierced from the flank of the Liumin army and assembled in Taolin in the north direction of the ruined city of Xiapi. Surrounded by the escorts, Lin Lian entered the formation of the Changshan battalion, joined up with Ao Canghai, led the Changshan battalion to rush forward, and moved to the peach forest in the north as a whole.

The armored cavalry is extremely sharp and can ruthlessly tear apart the enemy's formation, but the number of displaced people is too large, and it spreads out for seven or eight miles. In addition to the red-armored cavalry, there are more than 2,000 cavalry on both wings of the key rogue army, and their combat power cannot be underestimated.

Lin Tie and Ao Canghai led the Changshan battalion to advance as a whole, that is, to go to the peach forest to meet the armor cavalry, to avoid the loss of the armor cavalry, and lose the strength to rush into battle; At the same time, the Duhuai army was slightly further back to reorganize the formation and have a chance to breathe.

Although the Jiangdong Left Army only had more than 200 armored cavalry, all of them were heavily armoured, and the horses were also armored, so the arrows could not be shot, and the spears and spears could not penetrate; The armored cavalry was supplemented by 400 sword and shield soldiers, and even if the wandering army was not afraid of casualties, it had no chance to sacrifice itself to fight in front of them.

Liu Miaozhen saw that the armored cavalry of the Jiangdong Left Army was sharp, and she entered her own position from the flank, and the flank could hardly establish effective resistance......

This battle was fought separately from the corner to the night.

The five battalions of the Huai army were almost defeated, and Qin Chengzu could only master the remnants of less than 1,000 people in the end, and they lined up behind the Changshan camp to defend, and Ning Zechen and Zhou Pu all led their troops to join the battle.

The number of soldiers and horses of the exile army has also reached more than 20,000, and it still has an absolute advantage in numbers.

The red-armored cavalry of the red-jacketed woman was left with forty or fifty men from more than 300 people, and still did not withdraw from the battlefield.

At this time, Lin Jian also saw why the red-jacketed girl painted the armor of the cavalry with the elite in red - although the sharp interspersing of the Jiangdong Left Army cut the wandering army several times, as long as the red-jacketed girl led the red-armored cavalry to gallop on the battlefield, those displaced troops who were cut off seemed to see the battle flag of the main general still fluttering in mid-air, and they could still maintain the will to fight, and divide it without collapsing.

There are also several generals of the Wandering People's Army, who lead their troops to always follow the Red Armor Cavalry to intersperse and move on the battlefield to ensure that the general order of the Wandering Army is not chaotic.

Under the setting sun, Lin Jian squinted at the red-armored cavalry more than a thousand steps away, looking at its situation, he even had to break through.

"How can this black-faced woman still have the strength?" Zhou Pu rode a horse to protect Lin Lian's side, and said hatefully.

"It's almost three hours, isn't it?" Lin Jian asked Qin Chengzu, who was hit by an arrow in his leg and was inconvenient to ride a horse.

Qin Chengzu nodded, and Ning Zechen secretly spoke.

Ning Zechen led his troops to arrive a little late, and it was less than an hour before he joined the battle, and he saw the red-jacketed woman wearing a dress and leading the team, or rushing into battle or receiving reinforcements, rushing and killing four times, and there was almost no stop in between.

With such physical strength, Ning Zechen also sighed to himself; Zhou Pu had a blood mark on his face, which was given by the girl in the red jacket, if it wasn't for Zhou Pu's fast flash, the door would have been split open by the woman in the red jacket.

The Wandering People's Army was originally a rabble, and even the elite soldiers in the Wandering People's Army could never be compared with the soldiers of the Jiangdong Left Army in terms of the quality of the soldiers. But until now, the exile army has not become a tired army, and it can become more and more courageous, but it is the morale and fighting spirit inspired by the personal martial arts of the red-jacketed woman.

Only by killing the girl in the red jacket can the fighting spirit of the exile army be completely extinguished.

"Aside from the front, I will personally guard the flag, and let the girl in the red jacket come in and capture the flag!" Zhou Pu said viciously, and thought of the trick of capturing Sun Pole alive.

"Nonsense, if the lord takes away the flag, how can the face of the lord and the Jiangdong Left Army remain?" Qin Chengzu did not agree with Zhou Pu's use of this risky strategy.

They have a great strategic advantage, and there is no need to fight with the outcasts for a momentary victory. Even if the troops retreated and returned to Suining, the displaced army trapped between the Bianhe and Si rivers still couldn't get back a little disadvantage.

In comparison, maintaining the military prestige of the Jiangdong Left Army is much more important than fighting for a momentary spirit.

Zhou Pu smiled, reprimanded Qin Chengzu, and didn't say anything.

"If you don't thwart the spirit of the girl in the red jacket, how can the exile army in Qinglonggang be willing to subdue me?" Lin Jian said, "Mr. Qin will go to the rear, and I will naturally guard the flag of this boss himself!" ”

"Okay." Zhou Pu shouted excitedly.

Qin Chengzu saw that Lin had untied his saber and crossed his knees, his will had been decided, he glared at Zhou Pu, blaming him for making random moves, making it difficult for everyone to ride a tiger, and he couldn't persuade him.

Zhou Pufei can't plan, but he is warlike by nature; Qin Chengzu is not unable to fight, but he is more strategic.

"Okay, let's fight another battle, it's good to collect the troops before dark," Lin Jian said calmly, "The front formation spreads out to the two wings, making a pincer attack posture, and when the red-jacketed girl rushes in, Ning Zechen leads your troops out of the east wing of the Taolin, cutting the main force of the exile army on the periphery, and striving to destroy the red-jacketed woman before it gets dark." The red-jacketed girl will not be extinguished, and the situation in Suining will be delayed. If Yue Lengqiu was allowed to free his hands from the north and move south, the matter would not be easy to handle. ”

After all, Yue Lengqiu is the governor of Jianghuai, and Lin Lian is only the envoy of Huaidong, and when Yue Lengqiu also leads his troops to join in the fun, who will the desperate exile army choose to surrender to?

This is something that can be figured out by breaking his toes, Lin Jian is eager to clean up the affairs of Sui Ning before Yue Lengqiu frees his hand, so as not to let Yue Lengqiu have a chance to interfere.

The front of the Jiangdong Left Army spread out to the two flanks, making a pincer attack posture, leaving a gap in the middle, giving this place a chance to directly attack the main formation of the Chinese army.

Liu Miaozhen also knew that this was likely to be a trap, but until now, she still failed to give the main force of the exile army in Qinglonggang a ray of life, even if she knew that it was a trap, she could only fight.

In addition to the remaining forty-seven red-armored elites behind him, Liu Miaozhen also ordered Han Caizhi to gather more than 500 cavalry that still had combat power, and make one last effort before dark, so that the Jiangdong Left Army could withdraw to the camp while it was dark.

Ma Lanlong led most of the pressure back. The Jiangdong Left Army is too strong, the bow and crossbow are too dense, he has to wait for Liu Miaozhen to open a big gap in front of him, so that the foot soldiers can press on and play a role, otherwise they will press up first, and it will only increase the rout of the army.

At present, the Red Armor Cavalry is like a sharp steel cone stabbing at it, heading straight for the headquarters of the Chinese Army of the Jiangdong Left Army. Han Caizhi led 500 cavalry to follow, divided into two teams, and flanked the array spread out to the two flanks of the Jiangdong Left Army's front formation, so that it could not form an encirclement and gave the rear foot soldiers a gap to enter.

Lin Tie crossed his knees, less than two hundred steps apart, and he could almost clearly see the pair of eyeballs embedded in the black fat face of the red-jacketed woman Liu Miaozhen, shining in the sunset.

Unexpectedly, this woman was much thinner than when she met in the forest, and she could be called petite and longling, which was by no means commensurate with her black fat face. If it weren't for the fact that she was still martial arts, Lin Jian would almost suspect that she was a different person.

This woman is also staring at herself, and she should recognize herself, after all, she has been photographed in the forest.

The red-jacketed woman was really as brave as a Valkyrie, and she effortlessly picked up two shield carts in a row, breaking through the opening, and the armor behind the shield cart was as weak as a baby in front of her.

The female generals in the Jiangdong Left Army include Sun Wenwan and the fourth lady Feng Peipei, but they are definitely not at the same level as the red-jacketed girl Liu Miaozhen, even Zhou Pu can't bargain in her hands, and she really deserves to be the first military general of the Wandering People's Army.

No matter how strong the red-jacketed woman is, she is only strong personally, and the opening she has broken can only allow two or three horses to break in. The red-armored cavalry on her side was not as strong as the elite of the Jiangdong Left Army to protect the main general of the Chinese army and protect the battle flag of the main general, and they were at a disadvantage in numbers, and people kept killing and falling off their horses.

Seeing that the red-jacketed girl could only bring seven or eight horsemen to burst in, Zhou Pu rode on the right side of the forest binding, flicking the knife in his hand, and making a loud sound; Ao Canghai was on the left side of the forest binding, holding the horse lance, and his expression was calm.

To say that the generals under Lin Lian's command can stand alone, in addition to Fu Qinghe, the second person is not Cao Ziang, nor Qin Chengzu, but Ao Canghai, who is usually silent and has no waves in ancient wells.

Zhou Pu was warlike, Qin Chengzu was scheming, and Lin Jian was determined to lure the girl in the red jacket to seize the battle flag of the main general, but he didn't say anything.

Three generals kill a woman, although it is not glorious, but before the battle array, how can there be any brilliance?

Ao Canghai also became slightly excited, and exchanged glances with Zhou Pu, he couldn't wait for the red-jacketed girl to kill in front of Lin Lian's eyes, he and Zhou Pu would make another move.

At the moment, he lightly clamped the horse's belly, and Zhou Pu each protruded half of the horse's head, and the Ao Cang seahorse lance shook out like a silver dragon, striking the red jacket female face door.

Zhou Pu's knife was short, and the other person was on the right side, holding the horse chopping knife in his right hand, and he dragged back half a step before swinging the knife like a match.

Of course, Liu Miaozhen knew that this was a trap, she had to fight, only by stepping on this trap and beheading Lin Jian under the knife, would tens of thousands of sons and daughters behind her have a chance to turn defeat into victory and survive.

With the knife face to block Ao Canghai's stabbing horse lance, Liu Miaozhen did not have the power to resist the strength, and pressed down the waist, so that the huge force was borne by the mount under him. The horse chopping knife in the red jacket woman's hand was broken in two, and almost at the same time as the attack, the four hooves of the horse that stepped down clicked and shattered. Liu Miaozhen's body took advantage of the momentum to be short, flashed over Zhou Pu's chopping horse, she ran out of the horse, holding a broken knife that was only three feet long, and grabbed the head of the horse bound by the forest.

Ao Canghai and Zhou Pu did not prevent the red-jacketed girl from abandoning their horses and passing through the gap, they were all riding horses, and it was inconvenient to maneuver.

Ao Canghai stabbed with a backhand with a mallet; However, the red jacket woman was extremely fast, turned around and slashed the lance with a broken knife, her body was non-stop, and she could also accelerate with her strength, and her martial arts skills were rare in the world.

Zhou Pu also jumped on his horse to fight, but in an instant, he had already opened three or four steps for the red-jacketed girl......

For this blow, Liu Miaozhen took off two layers of thick armor before rushing into battle, leaving only one layer of close-fitting cotton armor. When rushing into battle, the back blade was almost shattered, but as long as Lin Tie was killed under the horse, it was worth dying here.

The broken knife is also deliberately broken when Ao Canghai stabs a spear, and the remaining three feet are just right.

Liu Miaozhen wrapped the knife around Lin Tie and stabbed it up across the horse's neck, the blade cut the artery in the horse's neck, and the sound of the horse's neck before the blood sprayed out.

Liu Miaozhen knew that Lin Tie was capable of literature and martial arts, and she didn't expect a knife to kill him, this knife was stabbed out to Lin Tie to block, she grabbed the horse with her left hand and tied a leather cord around her neck, and pulled it down suddenly. Lin Tie stepped off the green horse is a rare divine horse, and he was stunned to give her a hand that broke her front hooves. Liu Miaozhen wanted Lin Tie to lose his strength and fall out of the horse, and then kill him with a second knife before Ao Canghai and Zhou Pu could save him.

Lin Jian secretly felt unlucky, and actually underestimated this mother-in-law, if he killed the girl in the red jacket with two knives, wouldn't he become a laughing stock when he worked hard to practice swordsmanship on weekdays? Taking advantage of the fact that the woman in the red jacket was underestimating the enemy, she jumped up from her horse, struck her sword in front of her, and left.

The light of the knife is like electricity, and its speed is incomparable.

Liu Miaozhen only felt that her eyes were blackened by the light of the knife, and she was secretly miserable. Lin Lian has never been famous for his martial arts, the world says that he is both civil and military, and he is only praised for knowing military affairs and governing the army well, where did Liu Miaozhen think that Lin Lianwen was born in Juzi, and his sword skills are so strong, he is not weaker than the two or three brave generals under his command!

Liu Miaozhen only felt a chill on her face, and almost gave Lin Jian a knife to split, but she knew that Lin Lian's knife was rare and fast, not under Sun Zhuang, who taught her sword skills, and her body was out of balance, and there was no way to avoid the second knife he slashed, so she gave up the heart of struggle and waited for Lin Lian's second knife to split with her eyes open......

For some reason, Lin Bin's second knife was stagnant between the lightning and flint, Liu Miaozhen's left foot touched the ground, and the second knife was not split. She didn't hesitate at the moment, and when she had a point of strength, she stabbed forward with a broken knife and stabbed Lin Jian in the chest.

Lin Tie had scale armor to protect his chest, but he almost held his breath when he stabbed Liu Miaozhen with this knife, and his body flew out backwards.

Liu Miaozhen knew that there was no chance to kill Lin Tie again, so she didn't hesitate and walked back.

Zhou Pu, Ao Canghai and the surrounding generals saw that Lin Tie was hit by a knife, and they were out of proportion for a while, and they actually snatched a horse for the red-jacketed girl to kill.

Lin Lian helped people up, rubbed his chest, picked up the face armor that was split in half for him from the ground, and it turned out to be a black and fat woman's face, looking up, through the gap between the swords, shields, guns and spears, in the last ray of sunset, the little face of the girl in the red jacket was looking at this side, but she kept fighting in her hands, breaking through......
