Kai Fu Han

Chapter 260
On November [-]th, Si time, at the south gate of Huang County.

Thousands of cavalry came from the official road in the south of the city. Judging by their attire, they should all be Jin cavalry.

After Zhao Yinghao received the enemy report, he immediately climbed the south gate wall with Gu Yi. After Gu Yi's confirmation, he knew that this cavalry unit was the cavalry unit that had passed through Huang County before heading to Penglai to attack the Xinghan League.

At present, the Xinghan League only has four golden eagles that can only be used for communication. Now it is fighting on four fronts at sea, Yexian, Huangxian and Huangshuihe defensive positions. Therefore, Zhao Yinghao has not yet received the results of the Huangshuihe defense battle and does not know these. Why are the cavalry here?

However, Zhao Yinghao's trip had the most basic combat purpose, which was to prevent the Jin-Qi coalition forces from getting any supplies from Huang County. The way to deal with these Jin cavalry was naturally obvious.

"Plant a flag! Identify yourself."

"Yes!"

After listening to the order, some soldiers erected the "Han" flag on the high flagpole above the city gate.

As the "Han" flag on the flagpole slowly rose, the speed of the cavalry troops in the distance gradually slowed down.He stopped about two hundred steps near the south gate of Huang County.

A cavalryman served as a messenger and rode up to the city gate holding a white flag.

"Who in the city belongs to Qi?"

Gu Yi did not respond to this lucky question and looked at Zhao Yinghao, meaning to let him handle it.

Zhao Yinghao took the "Xinghan Type [-]" flintlock musket belonging to a Xinghan League soldier next to him.Methodically loaded with gunpowder and bullets, and then pointed the gun at the Jin cavalry under the city.

"The two armies are fighting, don't kill the envoy!" Gu Yi muttered in a low voice.

Zhao Yinghao seemed not to hear it and continued to operate. After feeling that he was basically aiming, he pulled the trigger.

"Boom!" There was a sound.

The Jin cavalryman who was still shouting at the city was shot in the chest and fell off his horse. The horse that lost its owner was also frightened by the crisp sound of the gunshot. After being tied up, the body was dragged on the ground by the horses, leaving a trail of blood.

What puzzled Zhao Yinghao was that upon hearing the gunshot, the cavalry formation of the Kingdom of Jin in the distance immediately became rioted.

Not long after, probably only a few breaths of time later, the entire Jin cavalry formation began to change its formation, bypassing the city wall of Huang County and galloping towards the west.

"What's going on?" Gu Yi asked doubtfully.

Zhao Yinghao had some reaction at this time and guessed: "I think the number of Jin cavalry is less than four thousand, and they are one man and one horse. It is probably because they were not effective in the battle and were frightened by the power of the muskets on the Huangshui battlefield. See There are also muskets in Huang County, so I just abandoned the city and withdrew west.”

"Maybe." Gu Yi couldn't think of any other possibilities. Thinking about it, this was the fact.

Before Ansheng had even spent an hour, another message came from the east city gate, and more than 1 puppet Qi infantrymen came from the east.Zhao Yinghao and Gu Yi rushed to the east gate again.

"This is Liu Yi's army, but judging from the situation, it should be the defeated troops from the front line." Gu Yi looked at the troops under the city. They were in disarray and had no morale. He said to Zhao Yinghao: "They are all infantry, and they have no supplies." Neither the logistics force nor the logistics force."

"Raise the Han flag!" Zhao Yinghao agreed with Gu Yi's judgment and ordered again.

As the Han flag was raised, the Puppet Qi troops who had already reached the city gate retreated directly, and did not slowly stabilize until they were two to three hundred steps away from the city wall.

"Are you afraid of being beaten?" Zhao Yinghao became more and more sure of his previous guess.

These Han troops did not come forward to negotiate, and turned directly to the south. Then, under the watch of Zhao Yinghao, they bypassed Huang County and went straight south. "Why don't they retreat to the west?" Zhao Yinghao asked Gu Yi, wondering if Gu Yi could give an explanation based on his understanding of the Puppet Qi.

"You also occupied Ye County?" Gu Yi asked without answering.

The locations of Ye County and Huang County are similar. They both belong to the back road of the Jin-Qi coalition's attack on Penglai, and both face the sea. That's why Gu Yi made this guess.

"Yes, it has been occupied." Zhao Yinghao replied.

"That's right, this unit should be heading to Laiyang. Without supplies, if they want to pass through the border of Laizhou, their soldiers will probably mutiny." Gu Yi replied.

"Then why didn't the previous Jin cavalry go to Laiyang? They also had no supplies?" Zhao Yinghao wondered.

"The Kingdom of Jin is a Jurchen. As long as you have a knife in your hand, you can have plenty of food in this Han family's territory." Gu Yi's answer revealed some helplessness and desolation.

"These Jurchen Tatars deserve to die! If they fall into my hands, they will die a terrible death!"

From the moment he entered Huang County, Zhao Yinghao thought that since he had blocked the retreat of the Jin-Qi coalition, he would inevitably experience a great battle and make great achievements.I didn't expect to enter Huang County with Gu Yi's help. It went very smoothly and the battle was not bloody.After that, two troops arrived one after another, both of which bypassed Huang County and moved in. As a result, Zhao Yinghao fired only one shot from beginning to end, killing an envoy holding a white flag.

Shame!
Shen time.

Signal troops came from the Yellow River and conveyed Liu Xinqi's order.

He was asked to leave a company of troops to cooperate with Gu Yi in controlling Huang County. The other officers and soldiers of the Fifth Infantry Battalion took a boat to go to Ye County to support Ye County in blocking the Jin cavalry.

"This time we must kill in a big way!" Zhao Yinghao showed his eagerness to make meritorious deeds.

……

Liu Xinyuan and ten warriors have been wandering around the Jin cavalry, looking for opportunities to assassinate Wanyan Jingzhe.

However, Wanyan Jingzhe didn't know whether he was on guard or just because of his nature. He was always surrounded by a large number of elite cavalry guards, and the distance when the probing horse was released was far enough, so Liu Xinyuan never had a suitable opportunity to make a move.

When crossing the boundary river, Liu Xinyuan thought that crossing the river would inevitably lead to formation chaos, and there should be a chance.

Unexpectedly, Wanyan Jingzhe was very cautious and did not cross the river from the deep water section downstream. Instead, he walked nearly ten miles upstream, found a place with shallow water, and directly crossed the river with his entire army on horseback, leaving Liu Xinyuan completely incapacitated. Can be multiplied.

"If this continues, he will soon join the five thousand horses in Ye County."

Liu Xinyuan was worried.

Fortunately, Wanyan Jingzhe was as anxious as Liu Xinyuan. On the night of November [-]th, he did not choose to camp and rest, but chose to travel overnight, which gave Liu Xinyuan a chance.

When the Jin Army's cavalry troops marched along the official road to Jiwang'er Mountain, it was already Xu hour.

Wang'er Mountain is only fifty miles away from Ye County, Laizhou. Both sides of this official road are woodlands, ten miles to the northwest is the sea, and Wang'er Mountain is to the southeast. It is a small mountain, but it is completely enough to hide Liu Xinyuan's 11 people.

The night on the [-]th was very dark, and the weather should be cloudy. The moon in the sky sometimes leaked out, and sometimes was completely hidden by the clouds. The sky at night was also bright and dark, with more darkness and less light.

"The moon is dark and the wind is high on a murderous night! Let me avenge my relatives here." Liu Xinyuan said through gritted teeth as he looked at the Jin cavalry passing by on the official road.
