Chapter 690: The Battle of Iron (3)
Seeing such a shocking scene, and looking at the "pitiful" army around him, Kuai Yu couldn't help but be frightened; His scalp was fried, his feet were weak, and he fell from his chariot; He landed on all fours, and even his helmet flew off. Kuai Yu got up in disgrace, stretched out his horsewhip to pull him into the car, and sneered: "You are a! ”
Seeing that the enemy army occupied a favorable terrain, Zheng Jun did not dare to rush through, so he began to adjust the queue.
Zhao Jianzi inspected the military formation and made the final mobilization, he shouted: "Bi Wan (Wei Wan) was a puppet when he was young, but he followed the ancestors to fight in the public service, and made great achievements in seven battles, and was finally named a doctor, with a hundred chariots, and he died at the end of his life. Brothers, do your best! None of us will die in this battle! You all have the potential to become the next Bivan! ”
The soldiers of the Jin Kingdom were high-spirited, but there were still a very small number of people who were frightened and showed their foreign appearance.
Wenyi's doctor Zhao Luo is one of them, he was pale and covered in chaff at first; After a while, he rolled his eyes and collapsed in the car like mud. No matter how much Yu Rong and Che You dragged him, he couldn't return him to his normal state. In desperation, the two had to tie him to the flagpole with a rope, which barely made him stand in the car.
The military judge made his rounds and asked suspiciously, "Why did you tie up the commander?" Yu Rong replied: "Doctor Zhao suddenly made a swing, and he couldn't stand up to the cold. The military judge looked at Zhao Luo's pitiful dignity, sneered and left.
The sergeants began to pray before the battle. Kuai Shen got off the chariot, knelt down on one knee facing Emperor Qiu and prayed: "Great-grandson Kuai Shen has the courage to pray to Emperor Ancestor King Wen, Liezu Kangshu, and Emperor Wen Xianggong: Zheng Sheng (Zheng Sheng's official name) is in trouble, and Jin Wu (Jin Ding's official name) is in trouble; In order to quell the trouble, Jin Wu ordered Zhao Ying's division to march eastward. Kuai Shen threw himself under the Zhao family and did not dare to mock himself, so he followed Zhao Ying to this place with a spear. Dare to ask the ancestors to bless me not to break my muscles and bones, not to break my face and disfigure; The battle can be victorious, and the three ancestors will not be disgraced! I don't dare to ask for my life, and I don't dare to love myself! ”
Zhao Ying listened to his interesting patriotic accent and novel prayers, and couldn't help but smile knowingly. He felt that Kuai's self-confidence had finally returned when the war was about to break out, so he grabbed Kuai's hand and pulled him into the chariot.
Zhao Ying began to beat the drum, and Handa also beat the drum in response to his drum beating. Zheng's army began to advance slowly, but Zhao Ying did not move at all, as if waiting for the enemy to attack on his back. Just when Zheng Guoren felt strange, the vanguard army led by Yang Hu rushed down from a high place towards the enemy's flank.
Twelve years ago, when Yang Hu led the army to attack Zheng Guo Kuangyi, he made Zheng Guoren suffer a lot. In the eyes of Zheng Guoren, Yang Hu is a fierce and ruthless murderous demon who can go to heaven and earth; In China, the most common thing parents say to scare disobedient children is "Yanghu is coming!" ”
Twelve years ago, when the children grew up, they finally saw the psychological shadow of childhood; The sergeants couldn't believe it was true, and they were terrified and retreated. The chariots of the Jin army went on a rampage, and the infantry followed closely behind and slashed and slaughtered, and the attacked Zheng army was suddenly in chaos. The sergeants in front of them didn't know what was happening, and they all turned around, and Handa couldn't help but look panicked.
Zhao Ying saw that Yang Hu had succeeded, and immediately launched a general attack, so the two sides fought car-to-car, man-to-man, bow and arrow to bow and arrow, and spear to spear.
At the beginning of the battle, the situation was favorable for the Jin army, but the Zheng army had a huge numerical advantage, and soon gained a foothold and began to counterattack. You must know that before the rise of Wu and Yue, Zheng Guo's military strength was ahead of Jin for a long time (from the beginning of the Spring and Autumn Period to the beginning of the three armies of Jin Wengong). Later, even if it was surpassed by the Jin State, its strength did not fall past the top five in the Central Plains (only ranked after Jin, Chu, Qi, and Qin). Jin and Zheng, the old enemies, have fought dozens of battles over the past 100 years, and both sides have a clear understanding of the old opponents. In fact, Zheng Guo is a belligerent country, and since Handa and Sihong dare to accept the escort mission, they will not have fear and pity for their old enemies.
Handa beat the drums hard, the Zheng army attacked in full force, and the Jin chariots began to scatter and flee, and most of the infantry was forced to retreat to the hillside. The worst thing is Zhao Luo, this coward watched Che You and Yu Rong both die in front of him, he shouted and struggled heartbreakingly, but he was tied to the flagpole and couldn't move. In the end, they could only watch as the enemy captured themselves.
Handa was overjoyed when he heard the news, and he shouted loudly: "Whoever captures Zhao Marting, reward the doctor, and give five counties!" Zheng Jun cheered, fought bravely, shouted and went straight to Zhao Ying to kill. Zhao Ying was so frightened that he had to flee in embarrassment. But the chariot was instantly overtaken by the enemy, and an enemy soldier swung a long sword and hit Zhao Ying in the head; Zhao Ying suddenly lowered his head to dodge, but he received a heavy blow between his shoulders and neck, and suddenly fell into the car.
The post is not chaotic in the face of danger, and changes the direction of the car in time; Kuai Shen swung his long song with all his might, so that the enemy could not take half a step forward. Zhao Ying's expression was in a trance, his eyes were foggy, he staggered and pulled the belt to stand up, and spurted out a mouthful of blood, which returned to normal. Seeing that he could no longer hurt Zhao Ying, the enemy shook his shot and pulled out the bee flag on Zhao Ying's chariot sideways.
Zhao Ying's military flag was taken away, and he couldn't help but be angry. He shouted: "Is it a shame for me that the flag of the Chinese army has been taken away? A disgrace to the whole army! If you can't take back the big bee flag, what county and county land are you talking about? You and I will be slaves to Zheng Guoren! With that, he used all his strength to beat the drums of war, turned the head of the car and rushed towards the enemy.
Inspired by their commander, the sergeants rushed back into battle to kill the enemy. Yang Hu heard the fierce drum beat and rushed forward desperately. Under the deterrence of the Jin army's desperate fighting style, the Zheng army finally showed signs of retreat. Kuai Shen couldn't suppress his crazy moves, and attacked the enemy like a fierce god possessed. So Zheng Jun first fell ground little by little, gradually became rapid, and finally abandoned the grain cart and fled.
Zhao Ying ordered the pursuit, and Handa ordered Sihong and Gongsun Lin to lead the army first, and he was in charge of the palace. The two said angrily: "We didn't get an inch, but we fled for our lives first; If you are alive, you will be ridiculed, and you will not be allowed to enter the Ming Hall after you die! We are the ones who should be in charge of the queen! Handa said, "Okay, let's die together!" The three generals joined forces to stop the pursuing enemy.
The two Qing were both Zheng Guo's leading archers, and Gongsun Lin was the commander of Zheng Jun's strong bow troops. The troops behind the palace were neatly arranged, and their actions were steady and orderly. When the pursuers rushed towards the rear of the Zheng army in a disorderly and disorderly manner, the arrows shot by the Zheng army swooped down on them like flying locusts, and the Jin people who were running in the front were immediately overturned. The speed of the Jin people did not change, and they continued to charge, and the result was the second and third rounds of arrow rain. The pursuers were deterred by the stubbornness of the enemy and slowed down.
Zhao Ying ordered the operation to be stopped, saying: "Zheng Guo is small, but it should not be taken lightly. ”
At this time, the sky had begun to darken, and Zhao Ying let out a sigh of relief and said with a happy face: "We have achieved an almost hopeless victory, and Fan's bad luck is about to come. Doctor Fu Wei said: "Although we have defeated the enemy outside, but the Zhi family is still in the country, and the master cannot but be on guard. ”
