Han Hai Tang Ergui

Chapter 571
Nearly 100,000 people were destroyed by the raid. This is a very terrifying thing. The chaos of the scene is beyond the imagination of many people.

In particular, the Southern Tang Army was still camped by the river, which caused a large number of soldiers to subconsciously run into the river.

At this time, most of the Southern Tang soldiers had no idea how many people Zhou Jun had come?There is no time to think about whether Zhou Jun will capture prisoners and so on.

They will only continue to infect each other's fear in the howling of the terrified comrades around them, and then let this fear quickly superimpose to the peak.

The soldiers quickly lost their minds, and many of them jumped straight into the river. Most of the boats parked by the river capsized due to the constant rush of people.

Some were running wildly along the banks of the Yangtze River. Even if there was no Zhou Jun chasing after them, they were terrified to the extreme and ran away desperately.

Of course, there were also those who couldn't run. Many people quickly exhausted their physical energy in the extreme tension and fright, and collapsed everywhere on the mud floor.

Some knelt on the ground and accepted their fate with their eyes closed, and some vomited so much that they convulsed and couldn't walk because of fright.

Murong Nobunaga is still very experienced in this kind of situation. In fact, the entire Zhou Kingdom cavalry is very experienced, because they have fought such defeat battles a lot.

So without waiting for Murong Nobunaga's order, the tens of thousands of cavalry were scattered according to the tasks assigned before the battle.

They kept interspersing on the battlefield, and when they encountered weapons in their hands or armor on their bodies, they immediately went to besiege them.

The ones who ran around didn't care, but they still kept intimidating them, trying to make these defeated soldiers even more panic, and exhausted their own physical strength.

Of course, Li Jinquan and Bian Hao protected Li Jingda and arrived at the mountain bag, which aroused the interest of all the cavalrymen of Zhou Kingdom.

In addition to Zhou Guo cavalry, a large number of Southern Tang rout soldiers who hoped to survive or follow the crowd also began to gather at this hill.

Gradually, there were at least 6000 people here in the Southern Tang Dynasty.

Cavalry squads were constantly attracted, and they launched attacks wave by wave, like peeling onions, killing fewer and fewer Southern Tang soldiers on the periphery.

When there were less than 2000 people from the Southern Tang Dynasty gathered here, an officer finally discovered the situation here. Gao Huaide got the report and hurried over with fifty cavalry guards.

The capture of the Southern Wu Puppet King Yan alive was the greatest achievement of this battle, and this mountain bag is most likely to hide a big fish.

Li Jinquan's back was drenched in sweat, and his whole body was sticky. He was almost 50 years old this year, squinting his eyes, trying his best to identify on the hill.

Li Jieshuai waited eagerly, hoping to see a few familiar figures.

It is a pity that the cavalry that Zhang Zhao dispatched this time are mainly the six guards of the pro-army and the seven towns of the forbidden army from Hexi.

Li Jinquan's acquaintances left and right the Shenwu Army, as well as the Yabing soldiers from various towns in Hebei, not many came.

But fortunately, with the blessing of God, Li Dajie's old eyes were almost blind, and he finally saw a familiar figure.

Gao Huaide's father, Gao Xingzhou, served Li Siyuan, Emperor Mingzong of the later Tang Dynasty, and was in charge of Li Siyuan's tooth soldiers together with the last emperor Li Congke as the left and right tooth generals.

At that time, Li Jinquan was Li Siyuan's personal bodyguard, so Li Jinquan and Gao Xingzhou were very familiar with each other.

In addition, Gao Xingzhou was from Guizhou, that is, from Huailai, Hebei. Huailai belonged to Zhangjiakou in later generations and was located north of Yanshan.

Li Jinquan was from Tuyuhun, and most of the Tuyuhun people in the Yinshan Dudufu were nomadic or settled in the Guizhou generation, so Li Jinquan and Gao Xingzhou were actually fellow villagers.

With this relationship, the relationship between the two families was extremely close. After Li Jinquan went south to the Southern Tang Dynasty, his four sons, younger brother and nephew were all under the protection of Gao Xingzhou.

So when Li Jinquan saw Gao Huaide, he immediately became excited, and he looked back at the guards and Bian Hao and others leading the Southern Tang Imperial Army.

"Shout! Shout quickly! Call Gao Dalang, your uncle is here, hurry up and save him."

So, on the battlefield where the wind was blowing, the shouts of the East accent mixed with the Jianghuai accent sounded, and suddenly, Gao Dalang!Gao Dalang's cry can be heard everywhere.

As soon as Gao Huaide heard the word "uncle", he immediately felt pain in his stomach, and instantly knew who was surrounded on the hill, and he couldn't ignore it.

Because this is the rule at this time, even if everyone is their own master, and people show their chariots and horses, then you must save them.

If you don't save it, your reputation will be ruined immediately, and no one will think you are still a hero, and they will not follow you.

Well, the Wufu of the Five Dynasties actually had their own set of rules. Although they were shameless, brutal, and shameless, they were outsiders, but internally they valued loyalty and unity.

For example, the silver guns are effective in Jiedu. They overthrow the commander in chief and overthrow the emperor, but the soldiers at the bottom and the officers at the grassroots level are extremely united. Only when the ruler chooses to kill them collectively can the hidden dangers be eliminated.

But Gao Xingzhou was also in trouble!This was no problem in the past, but who knew that Emperor Shaoming, who was strict in military management, would recognize this?

Moreover, their Gao family is not Yuan Cong of Emperor Shaoming, and they have only gained a firm foothold. Although their younger sister E Niang is destined to be sent to the palace, the saint seems to like it, but after all, it has not been confirmed yet.

However, seeing the surrounding comrades and subordinates all turned their heads to look at him, Gao Huaide knew that he must not show hesitation at this time.

Just as he was about to answer, Yao Yuanfu captured and killed the Southern Tang Jiankang Army Commander, poking his head with a long spear in a show of power, passing by the left side of the hill, right in front of Li Jinquan.

uh-huh!

It was literally delivered.

As soon as Li Jinquan jumped three feet high, he yelled at Yao Yuanfu on the hill, "Yao Yuanfu, Yaoyao, save me, save me!"

Yao Yuanfu's face turned green, Gao's father and son still had a daughter (sister) to present, and they never betrayed Zhang Zhao.

But Yao Yuanfu, his younger sister and niece were all extremely majestic, and he had a history of taking money from Zhang Shengren and not doing anything. When Li Jinquan yelled, he immediately shivered.

Fortunately, he also saw Gao Huaide immediately, "Gao Dalang, this is still a rescue, and Li Jinquan is the most cunning person, maybe the puppet king of Southern Wu is with him."

All right!There is no way to hide from the left and right, so Gao Huaide can only go forward, while sending people to look for Murong Nobunaga, while arranging people to prepare for the attack.

But it was an attack, but it separated the Zhou army's iron cavalry from the panic-stricken Southern Tang army.

Li Jinquan saw that there was something going on, and ran down from the hill in a hurry. He raised his hands high, stripped himself down to his close-fitting robe, and said to Gao Huaide and Yao Yuanfu before the battle.

"The person you are looking for is on the hill and has made great contributions. Don't forget a certain family."

Gao Huaide and Yao Yuanfu's spirits vibrated, it seems that Li Jingda is really here, that's great!

Seeing the happy faces of the two, Li Jinquan asked in a trembling voice, "Is fourth brother all right?"

The fourth brother is Li Jinquan's fourth son who stayed in the Central Plains. Although he was the fourth, he was actually his eldest son. He was an official in Tokyo at the time, so he stayed in the Central Plains.

Gao Huaide nodded, "Fortunately, I have been serving as a personal guard by a certain father's side."

Li Jinquan's eyes were a little moist now, he nodded slowly, and wanted to say something, but in the end he didn't say anything.

Murong Nobunaga happened to be nearby, so he rushed over immediately.

As soon as he arrived, Li Jinquan recognized him.

In this world, the only one who dares to wear white helmets and armors on the battlefield is Murong Nobunaga.

This was intentional, Zuo Yulin guards were basically wearing red cloth armor, but he deliberately wanted white helmets and white armor.

Before Murong Xinchang could speak, Li Jinquan suddenly knelt down, still yelling, Gao Xingzhou and Yao Yuanfu couldn't understand, but Murong Xinchang could understand.

This Li Jinquan was reporting to him in Tuyuhun language, saying that Li Jingda, king of Yan of the Southern Tang Dynasty on Shanbao, and Bian Hao, the envoy of the left deployment, were both there.

Moreover, Li Jinquan also called him Khan, and paid homage to him with the etiquette of Tuyuhun people meeting Khan.

Murong Xinchang suddenly couldn't laugh or cry, people said that Li Jinquan was clever but stupid, it seems to be true.

Although his family, the Guazhou Murong family, is indeed the descendant of Murong Fu, the last Tuyuhun Wudi Yeba Qindou Khan, the governor of Changle Prefecture, and Qinghai County King Murong Fu.

But when has he been?He himself didn't dare to mention this again, because he was afraid that someone with a heart would say that he was Li Siyuan and Li Congke.

This Li Jinquan was lucky, in front of so many people, he even came to pay homage to him by uttering Yuhun words.

Murong Xinchang had no choice but to put on a dark face, and asked Li Jinquan to order the remaining two thousand Southern Tang troops to lay down their weapons, and then asked him to escort Li Jingda and Bian Hao down.

Not long after, all the Southern Tang soldiers who had received Murong Xinchang's promise not to kill them all knelt on the ground, Bian Hao raised the white flag high, Li Jingda took off his robe, exposed the left half of his body, and surrendered to Murong Xinchang.

In this battle, Murong Xinchang took advantage of the opportunity of Jinyi's personal guards to destroy the beacon fire tower, led seven thousand cavalry, one man and two horses, and ran for more than one hundred miles in only four hours.

Of course, this speed is not enough to compare with the terrorist action force of the Long live army who marched 72.5 kilometers in [-] hours.

Not even top ten in Feudal Army, hardly even famous, but not bad.

You must know that the seven thousand cavalry came all the way, not in light clothes, but in armor.

And when they got there, they didn't need to rest, they only ate a cake, and the war horse added a handful of boiled black beans in salt water, and immediately went into battle.

In a very short period of time, he went straight to the camp of the Southern Tang Central Army and ended the war.

In this campaign, Murong Xinchang captured more than [-] Jiedu envoys, commanders, and commanders under Li Jingda, King Yan of the Southern Tang Dynasty, and hundreds of mid-level generals at the first level of Duke Yuhou.

Tens of thousands of Southern Tang soldiers were killed, countless drowned in the river, and more than [-] people were captured.

The Southern Tang claimed to have 150,000, but in fact nearly [-] imperial troops, prefectural and county soldiers, township soldiers, and Ding Zhuang were all lost. They could no longer do anything to start any war, and they couldn't even defend the river.

And when Murong Xinchang sent the captured Southern Tang Li Jingda banner and Yamen flag to Chuzhou, Bai Congxin, who was located in Tianchang, also rushed to Yangzhou with five thousand troops.

This time, not only did Yangzhou, the eastern capital that the Southern Tang had just regained, fall again, but it also caught up with a large number of Southern Tang officials who followed Li Jingda back to Jiangbei.

After Bai Congxin arrived, Murong Xinchang quickly handed over the command of the army.

The big ones are still very clear, he won't show off in front of the Yuan Cong faction seniors like Bai Congxin.

He also knew that he was more close to the Yuan Cong faction than Li Cunhui and others. That was because although he was not a member of the Yuan Cong faction, his mother Cao Sanniang, Yannai, was a member of the Yuan Cong faction.

Not only that, Murong Nobunaga also personally wrote a letter to Zhang Zhao, explaining that Li Jinquan paid homage to him with the khan ceremony of the Tuyuhun people.

After Bai Congxin took over the command, he immediately arranged for Li Cunhui to go east to conquer Taizhou again, and took all the Yang and Wu clan into his hands.

Then send Gao Huaide to lead [-] riders to open up the traffic line from Yangzhou to Chuzhou along Hangou.

Because Zhang Zhao had already sent a letter, he planned to go to Yangzhou himself.

After finishing these, Bai Congxin immediately began to select the navy from the Southern Tang captives, repair the captured warships, and select the elite from the fishermen of Han, Chen and other families who had already taken refuge to form his confidant navy.

This is not to scare the Southern Tang court on the other side of the river, it is really preparing for the next move. If Li Jing is not capable of coping, Bai Congxin doesn't mind fighting across the river now.
