Powerful Song Dynasty

Chapter 217 Battle 3
"There are horses in front, okay! Hurry up and grab the horses, and cover them with bows and arrows." It was right, and the horses of the Liangshan Army were placed on the west side of the main camp. Wang Xiu was so happy that her eyes turned green.This can make a lot of money, why can't Da Song help Khitan, isn't it just a lack of horses!Jingdong's four generals are sharp, but there are less than a thousand horses. The horse army is quite embarrassing. They are all the horses of He Shuo's idiots. The scarce resources of horses were seized by a group of bandits.

The great benefit is right in front of you, if you ignore it, you will be too sorry for yourself, and you will be struck by lightning.Since ancient times, seeking wealth and danger, there is no sweetness without risk. He will never give up any opportunity, any opportunity to expand his troops, even if he pays a heavy price.

These Song Army cavalry immediately formed a two-wing defense line, using dense arrows to intercept the Liangshan Army's pursuit.The striking power of a strong bow and crossbow is terrifying on a moonlit night. You can't see the arrows at all, and you can't even talk about defense. If you are caught off guard, dozens of people will fall to the ground with arrows, and there will be ups and downs of howling.

It has to be said that Wang Xiu was lucky. Many people did not have time to get the horses, and they were raised in the camp. Although there were only more than [-] war horses, they were still horses!He couldn't help laughing and said, "I've made a fortune, grab it all, hurry up."

Now that you have what you want, why are you still standing in a daze, can't you wait for others to come up and beat you up?

Feng Yuan looked at the smug Wang Xiu, and couldn't help but twitch the corners of his mouth, Mr. is too snobbish, he treats war as a business, isn't it just more than two hundred war horses!What's more, the war horses of the Heshuo Army are not high-quality horses, and are several grades worse than Liangzhou horses.

Perhaps, today is Wang Xiuzhen's luck, and Lei Heng is the commander of this army. His accidental death made it difficult for this army to organize a strong counterattack in a short time, let alone organize a cavalry.

The Liangshan Army continued to fight with a small force, and they had no choice. If you don't advance tenaciously in the melee in the dark, you will die. Who knows if the opponent will kill back and forth, and there will be no way to survive.

In order to survive, they had to attack hysterically, one after another, like moths throwing fire. It was precisely this kind of hysterical madness that put Song Jun under tremendous pressure and could only fire arrows desperately.

However, the number of arrows carried by Wang Xiu's troops is limited after all, less than half a stick of incense, their arrows are running out, and gradually they can't hold on. On the siege, if the cavalry is alone and surrounded, it is definitely a dead end, there is no second possibility.

"Okay, the whole army retreats, pay attention to cover each other." Wang Xiu saw that it was almost done, and immediately ordered all the teams to cover the retreat. He also prepared another big meal for the Liangshan army. Tonight was just an appetizer and dessert, and he got a small surprise. fiscal.

"Sir, how many people are surrounded." Feng Yuan's sharp eyes saw that several cavalrymen in the back of the hall were encircled and were fighting hard. Waves of bandits from the Liangshan Army were trying to divide several cavalrymen and strangle them one by one.

"Go to the rescue."

Wang Xiu glanced at Qiu Yun, looked at the Liang Shan army swarming up, and said resolutely: "Come with me, and I will never abandon any robes." After finishing speaking, he rode his horse and swung his knife to charge forward. He had no choice but to lose his horse. You can only use the straight knife in your hand.

"Never give up." Feng Yuan's eyes lit up, he glared at Jing Bo and said sharply: "Fifth brother, hurry up and control the retreat of troops and horses. Brother Ninth and I will go to protect Mr. Hurry up."

"I can't be left behind." Qiu Yun laughed loudly, and rode his horse to chase Wang Xiu first.

"Once again, Lao Jiu took the lead." Jing Bo spat unwillingly, but he had to listen to Feng Yuan's words, so he rode away.

He still remembers Qiu Fu's innocent teachings. The mission on the battlefield is clear, and you must not show off your bravery. You have to have brains.

The sudden counterattack of the three of Wang Xiu caught the Liangshan army by surprise, they were beaten into chaos, and several people who didn't know what to do, they all retreated.

Feng Yuan and Qiu Yunru are two killing gods, with a big spear and a long knife, as long as they dare to fight, they will be beheaded within one round, and no one dares to approach.Well, those who didn't get close with long eyes turned into corpses.

When the three of them rushed forward and dispersed the crowd, they didn't take much effort to join the surrounded cavalry.Fortunately, none of the besieged soldiers was killed, and only one was slightly injured. They had no time to speak, and followed Wang Xiu back to fight back.

This time it was okay, no one who was not open-eyed dared to step forward to intercept, and the breakout went smoothly, just like a normal outing.

In the eyes of that group of Liangshan soldiers, they all rushed out of their own homes, and intercepting them would only make others work harder, leaving their own lives behind. The three of them act like wolves and tigers.

Coming and going like the wind, a robbery ended like this, leaving behind a shocking wreckage.

A tall and thick man got on his horse in a daze, watched Song Jun rushing away, and said angrily: "Quick, get on the horse for me, rectify the soldiers and horses and let me chase them, I'm going to kill Li Guojian. "

If Wang Xiu fought this person, he would be surprised if he reported his name again. It turned out to be Shi Jin, a coquettish guy known as Jiuzhilong.

In the early morning, Wang Xiu led his army back to the hidden place, and sent out patrols again. The soldiers who participated in the battle rested on the spot, replenished arrows, and replaced damaged equipment.After they counted the number of people, nine people were killed in battle, two people were seriously injured, and 32 people were slightly injured.

Wang Xiu was very satisfied. There is no way that no one would die in a war. Only nine soldiers from the Xiang Army of the Liguojian died in the first battle, which was far beyond his expectations. a satisfactory return.Still, every soldier killed made him worry.

With more than a hundred excellent war horses and mules, Wang Xiu's joy was incomparable. He never thought that a single attack would be rewarded like this.

Qiu Fu was very happy, he laughed and said: "The harvest is good, what we lack the most is war horses."

Wang Xiu nodded, and said seriously: "Take a short rest, and let the officials who have not yet fought to attract the Liangshan army. Let's fight a beautiful battle of annihilation."

Qiu Fu stroked his beard and said with a smile: "Yes, this battle must severely injure the Liangshan army, and make them completely give up."

Wang Xiu smacked her lips, turned her head and looked northeast, with a very serious expression.

However, Shi Jin fired a fire, rectified the troops and horses and went south aggressively. He still has three or four hundred cavalry and more than a thousand Bubazi, which is considered strong in terms of military strength. It is a pity that more than half of his cavalry has been lost. If he is smarter He quickly withdrew from Xuzhou.But in his rage, he had no choice but to give Wang Xiu color and avenge Lei Heng with his own hands. He didn't even listen to Suo Chao's words, but desperately urged the troops to move forward.

"Boss, the Zhao family's roaming horses are found ahead."

Suo Chao's face was serious, and he said in a deep voice: "We can't go any further, the other party is fully prepared, we should withdraw from Xuzhou, and returning to our brother is the best policy."

Shi Jin's eyes were red, and he gritted his teeth and said: "Wang Xiushu killed my brother, I will cut him into pieces, so that I can eliminate the hatred in my heart."

Suo Chao was very dissatisfied with Shi Jin's tyranny, but he and Lei Heng, who died tragically, were not the chief generals, and their orders and prohibitions must be obeyed by Shi Jin's arrangement, and they could not bite the bullet and lead the army forward.

Perhaps it was because of Shi Jin's arrogance, or perhaps it was because of his own strength, the horse infantry came in two steps and formed a long snake formation all the way.

The officials and soldiers of the Song army who had been hiding in the low-lying valley for a long time quietly waited for the prey to take the bait. Qiu Fu saw the formation of long snakes, and his eyes were as hot as wolves.Obviously, Liang Shanjun was defenseless, and if the sneak attack was successful, it would cause great harm.

"Command the order, each team is ready, look at my order." Qiu Fu's cheeks trembled with excitement, wishing he could pounce on him and bite him hard.

Wang Xiu was very calm, still closed her eyes and meditated, and her demeanor was as calm as water.

More than a hundred cavalry passed through the ambush site and headed towards Liguo, followed by the carefree Liangshan Army. More than [-] cavalry came roaring, but Bu Bazi was left far behind, forming a two-way long front and back. The snake array is very tangled,

"Coach, beat their horses and leave none behind." Wang Xiu said lightly, without any emotion in her tone.

When the cavalry of the Liangshan Army entered the bow and arrow range of the Bubazi of the Song Army, the Bubazi occupying their respective positions got up one after another. The cavalry of the Liangshan Army in the encirclement were in a desperate situation, and they turned their backs on their backs for a while, shouting again and again.

Hearing the sky-shattering shouts and seeing the dense sound of arrows piercing through the air, he suddenly became excited and couldn't help looking at Wang Xiu.

Battle reports kept coming, but his expression remained calm, and he did not convey the military order for a long time, which made Feng Yuan and the others, who were hiding in the distance, very anxious, but did not dare to ask.

Qiu Fu attaches great importance to bow and arrow archery, especially the tactical cooperation between the teams. This is a lesson summed up with blood in the war. Those soldiers of the Song Army took advantage of the terrain and shot with bows and arrows. More than a hundred people were shot off their horses.The rest of the people were in a mess under the pressure of bows and arrows, and more and more people were shot down.

From the moment the arrow was released until the enemy reacted, Shi Jin only fired three rounds of shooting, and Shi Jin lost half of his [-] riders. Suo Chao was startled and angrily shouted: "Hold on, hold on, and charge forward with me."

Shi Jin was dumbfounded. He never expected that the Song Army would set up an encirclement circle, let alone that he bumped in. He moved from Liangshanbo to dozens of counties. He was not so aggrieved. He shouted: "Give them all, kill them all."

Qianbu Bazi rushed forward, speeding up from [-] paces away. Once they joined the battlefield, the outcome would be unpredictable. Wang Xiu's expression was cautious.
