Chapter 16 Collapse (Continued)(1/3)
In the afternoon, it was still quite some time before dark, and the thin spring rain still showed no sign of stopping, so the entire Jin army collapsed.
In other words, before the total collapse came, Wu Shu, who was left behind in the rear camp, was extremely frightened, but he still tried his best to make a series of preparations... At the same time, he asked the Taishi slave to take Yu Yunwen to visit Zhao Song's official family, in order to delay it as much as possible
In the event of a possible total collapse, on the one hand, the guards were asked to open all the camp gate drawbridges and prepare flags behind the drawbridges for response when necessary; on the other hand, the remaining troops in the camp were asked to directly drive the signing troops out of the camp from the other side to vacate.
On the one hand, they also asked people to clear the passages and grounds in the camp to facilitate the entry and preparation of troops.
However, all preparations, at least the immediate preparations, were completely ineffective when the moment came when the earth collapsed and the mountains were destroyed.
The camp was out of control from front to back. The vast majority of people no longer paid attention to the military orders. Robbery and fighting spread everywhere along with abandoning their posts and fleeing. Nine out of ten flag bearers arranged for them also turned around and left... At the beginning, Wu
Shu also tried to lead his bodyguards to kill the flag bearers as a restraint. However, as the first batch of defeated troops arrived in front of the camp, even the ruling bodyguards' own remaining bodyguards lost their last trace of confidence and stopped executing military orders.
.
This is of course understandable - you know, even though countless suspension bridges and gates were opened in front of the camp because of the previous troops, when the defeated army turned back, there was still a large-scale stampede, and countless soldiers were directly pushed in by the rear troops.
In the ditch, these core combat forces of the Great Jin Kingdom immediately fought and pushed each other on the suspension bridge and mud ditch for the slightest possibility of escape.
They trampled on each other, tore each other apart, and even waved their war hammers. Some even tried to take off their armor in the mud, just to be able to climb into the camp earlier.
In just an instant, the armor, weapons and the mud in the ditch caused a huge attrition that probably only took half an hour of melee.
In fact, seeing this situation, not only Wu Shu gave up his efforts completely, but also the other people in the camp who strictly abided by military orders lost their discipline and fled directly.
"King of Wei! King of Wei! Fourth Prince!"
Angry and angry, Hong Ya shouted several times to the watchtower. "The situation is hopeless. If we don't leave now, are we going to ruin all the Great Jin Kingdom? Let's go back to Zhending Mansion!"
The pale-faced Wu Shu finally nodded blankly, then climbed down the watchtower in a daze, but almost fell down. But before he fell, several personal guards rushed up and lifted his prince to the ground.
, and someone quickly brought the war horse.
"No! I can't go to Zhending Mansion!"
Wu Shu got on his horse in confusion, and marched slightly for a moment with Hong Ya and dozens of his close guards. When they reached an intersection in a camp, he suddenly regained some clarity. "Such a huge collapse, how many people on the Hutuo River are there?"
A pontoon bridge can't pass many people at all, so the large group of soldiers and horses still have to go east... But if they go east, you know Hong Chengzhi..."
Of course Hong Ya knew... wouldn't it be that most of the Jin army's defeated troops would definitely stay in Hutuo Henan in a hurry, and Yue Fei would probably bring them from the lower reaches... But now, how could he still dare to interfere in this matter?
As the person in the army who was probably the most psychologically prepared for the collapse of the Jin Army, he was much more awake than Wu Shu just now, but he didn't dare to say a word, just for fear that something would happen in the future and suspicion would be raised on him.
Yu Yunwen A pool of muddy water is enough to scare people!
"I'll go to Shiyi first to see if we can gather together along the way and cross the river as soon as possible." On the other side, Wu Shu saw Hong Ya didn't speak, but he misunderstood and thought that the other civil servant was afraid of death. "Hong Chengzhi, please go there.
Back camp, take the people from the back camp to Zhending Mansion. Before, I asked Gao Qingyi to call Lao Liu to send reinforcements. Now you have to stop them. Don't let them come to die again. Let Lao Liu guard Zhending... If you can do it for a day,
One day...if Pusu Yue is able to grasp the pontoons on the river, how many people can be gathered in!"
When he started to say this, Wu Shu tried to take his gold medal from his waist and gave it to the other party, but for some reason, he didn't take it off until the end. In the end, Hong Ya himself was so anxious that he was sweating profusely.
He beat the horse himself, then stretched out his hand to untie it and snatched it with his hands.
After taking it, the two of them beat their horses separately and prepared to go their separate ways. However, after taking a few steps, Hong Ya couldn't help but spin his horse slightly. He held the gold medal and handed it sideways to Wu Shu:
"Fourth Prince, you must cherish it!"
Wu Shu looked back at the other party blankly, and nodded slightly in the rain, but soon after, the two finally went their separate ways and parted ways.
And if Wu Shu and Hong Ya still have some time and thinking space because they are in the rear camp, then before the total collapse, Wanyan Huonv, Wanyan Caishu, and Jiagu Wuli, who were at the forefront of the highland,
General Bu San and his subordinates were the first to bear the brunt, and they realized at the first moment that the situation was over and that no manpower could do anything about it.
However, when the place collapsed, the three former close confidants of the Lou family behaved completely differently.
Jiagu Wuli, who was already sixty-four years old, let out a long sigh, immediately rode back to camp, and tried to escape. And contrary to most of the scattered troops, he actually led dozens of mounted guards to go eastward against the trend, as if
They were planning to go in the opposite direction, taking advantage of the inconvenience of the Song Army's Iron Curtain Formation to easily avoid the rout of the large army, and also make it easier to walk to Zhending Mansion via the Futuo River.
He knew the importance of crossing the river as soon as possible.
As for Wanyan Huonv and Wanyan Jishu, they both stopped in place as if by agreement, and then allowed the soldiers and horses around them to disperse, but they just stared at the dragon on the top of the mountain without moving.
This is understandable. Others still have reasons to flee and have the instinct to survive, but what about the living girl and the uncle?
They have nothing left.
Without the belief in revenge that had supported them for so long, they had lost the last hope of defeating the dragon, and they even had no capital to gain a final foothold... Their army was at the front now, and it was probably the most difficult part to escape.
, and in this battle, someone must be responsible for the defeat.
The level of the King of Wei was a matter of fact, but Huonv and Uncle Che took the lead in attacking, resulting in the last large group of elite cavalry being divided by the Song army's cavalry. As a result, the strategic tasks on both sides were not achieved, but this was a fact that was obvious to everyone. Even Bian was unable to do so.
No need to argue.
As soon as she thought of this, under the drizzle, the living girl reined in her horse and looked at the dozens of remaining riders behind her with a smile:
"Go and find General Cai Shu... He is Taizu's nephew. He still has a life if he goes back. In the future, he will retreat to the outside of the Great Wall, among the white mountains and black waters. There is no chance that he will be able to make a comeback and avenge my father... Don't be here."
I lost my life... hurry up!"
Dozens of cavalry guards looked at each other, and no one moved for a while. However, as the Song Army formation rolled forward, more elite Song Army soldiers around them saw that it was the Jin Army generals who were attacking in a targeted manner. In the end, more than ten cavalrymen leaned over.
Then leave and go east to look for Uncle Wanyan.
The living girl originally wanted to wait for the others to leave, throw away her bag, draw her sword and kill herself, but when she saw that there were still more than a dozen horsemen behind her, she simply rode up to meet them, avoiding the Song army's formation and heading along the gap in the horse-rejecting formation.
The visible but unreachable dragon charged away.
Seeing such a scene, more than a dozen of his riders turned away again, and for a while only seven or eight of them followed.
Moreover, although the Song troops in the Juma Formation were scattered and not as dense as the surrounding formations due to the presence of the Juma formation, there were still enough heavily armored warriors to easily stop these dozen cavalrymen who could not run fast at all.
Only the living girl had been peeping for a long time, and she had already seen a group of Song soldiers carrying long knives but no blunt weapons occupying a corner of the horse-rejecting formation in front of the dragon. They looked like they could be bullied, so they took the lead at this time, relying on their excellent equestrian skills and martial arts.
Outstanding, he dodged left and right, avoiding the swarming heavy armored warriors, and led his cavalry to the group of alien warriors wielding long swords. The two sides faced each other, and these alien warriors were indeed not living women and their relatives.
Guard opponents can often be taken care of with just one hammer blow, but wiping them with long knives has no effect. The few who have used hammers and axes are obviously not used to them... For a while, they were actually entangled by a living female guard, and then died.
The woman herself almost rushed to the position two or three hundred steps in front of Long Hu on a single horse.
At this time, there was only one long-sword alien warrior left between the formation formed by the living girl and the one under the dragon banner who was obviously the Imperial Banzhi.
Seeing this situation, the formation in front of Longhu was as stable as Mount Tai, and there was no movement at all. Even in the surrounding Song army formation, no one came to rescue, because no one thought that this single horse could rush through thousands of Yuqian Banzhi.
Even the living girl herself thought at this moment that if she could die in the front line of Zhao Song and let Zhao Song's officials see whether she would die or not, then she would have no regrets.
Unexpectedly, just as the living woman's blood was boiling, she was approaching the sword-wielding warrior on the opposite side. Instead of retreating, the warrior shouted and faced him with a sword.
When the living girl saw this, she did not hesitate and faced him with a hammer.
However, as they collided face to face, the living girl actually lost her target. After about ten steps, the armored war horse neighed again, and then collapsed, throwing the living girl directly to the side.
The group refused immediately.
Although he was not pierced dramatically due to the protection of his armor, the pain was enough to make him lose his mobility and leave him to be slaughtered.
In a daze, the living woman who was caught between the two wooden cones of the horse struggled to open her eyes. She saw a large group of internal blood and blood on the side of the horse sliding and rolling along the slope. Among them, the horse's intestines came from the belly of the horse.
He was dragged for dozens of steps along the way, but at this moment, a bloody man actually stood up in the pile of internal organs, and then limped towards him.
The living girl didn't know that the other party was trying to survive. All she could say was that she was lucky to not be trampled and maimed by the horse while sliding on the ground to open the horse's belly.
Of course, now is not the time to think about the other party... The living girl tried hard to see her appearance clearly, but she couldn't turn around at all. She could only sigh in her heart, it didn't matter if she died so easily, but she didn't die before Long Hao.
In front of the Zhao and Song officials and countless famous generals of the Song Dynasty, I couldn't help but feel a little aggrieved.
Of course, the grievances quickly dissipated.
Yuan Weiyi, who was covered in blood, stepped forward step by step. Under the solemn watch of the Song army around him, he first took off the gold medal from the opponent's waist and bit it in his mouth. Then he opened his faceplate and stabbed the dagger directly into his face.
Then he hurriedly stepped on the opponent's body and raised the gold medal high in one direction.
Zhao Jiu, who had previously swung his sword and rushed forward in front of the horse-rejecting formation, did not move his hands behind his hands. Seeing this scene from afar, he just stretched out his hand and pointed a finger. Yuan Weiyi was relieved.
, and then fell to the ground again, crying inexplicably for a moment.
In addition, because Pu Sanbei Lu's body was not found for a while, and Wanyan Balisu was only found with a broken flag, Wanyan Huonv was the relay of Ali in this battle.
The third Wanhu among them was also the fifth Wanhu who was actually killed by the formation.
It was now afternoon, only half a quarter of an hour after the collapse of the Jin Army, and the rain had not stopped.
On the other side, Zhao Jiu waved his sword and ordered the entire army to attack. The generals, without mentioning the commander, ordered the formation to move forward. He himself did not know why, but he was no longer willing to move forward. At this time, he saw a Jin Army general riding almost alone in the distance.
He rushed into the battle, but before he could reach him, someone jumped on his horse and revealed his gold medal. Knowing that it was a living girl who died, he became more and more lazy. He didn't want to talk or move at all. He just let Shao Chengzhang move Ma Zha and several cases, and watched the army pour in.
Go down and chase and kill the fleeing enemy.
However, just as the official sat down again, another news suddenly came.
"Qu Da surrounded Uncle Wanyanji...Uncle Wanyanji wants me to meet in front of the formation?" Zhao Jiu frowned in response. "That deputy general from the Lou Room?"
"Yes." Liu Yan blurted out. "He is also the concubine of Wanyan Cha's mother. Wanyan Cha's mother is Aguda's concubine, and he can be regarded as Aguda's nephew."
"It's okay to meet him with such status." Zhao Jiu sat upright in the rain. "But I'm not interested today... Tell Qu Da to kill him quickly, and then go to the camp and trample on the enemy."
Liu Yan bowed his head and walked away.
About half a quarter of an hour later, the military order was conveyed to Qu Duan. Qu Duan nodded in understanding and did not say a word. He just looked at the Jin army in front of the formation without weapons and horses. The latter understood and turned back to the Jin army formation.
