I Xiaoxiong

Chapter 187

Chapter 187
In terms of terrain, between Zhengyang and Shouzhou, there is almost a flat open land.

For cavalry, this kind of terrain can maximize the impact.

Xue Jucheng, who was covered with cold, had no time to react at this time.It was too late to change formation at this time, and he never thought about facing the cavalry of the official army in this battle.

On this kind of plain ground, the flanks of the rebel phalanx fighting with the officers and soldiers were almost undefended.

Fu Jinchuan raised his horsewhip and pointed at the flank of the rebel army, saying, "Order the cavalry of the Shenwu Army to stay in the left wing to help in the battle, and the rest of the troops will pass quickly and drive directly to the city of Shouzhou."

"promise."

More than 8 cavalry troops and more than [-] horseshoes trampled on the ground finally made everyone realize what had happened.

The [-] rebels were fighting with the [-] government troops, and the battle was intense.

But the cavalry that suddenly appeared in front of them was simply a nightmare for the rebels.

A large group of cavalry galloped past not far from their flanks, in a continuous line.This number alone is enough to shock their minds.

Xue Jucheng knew what these cavalry were doing.

This cavalry army, which is tens of thousands in size, is definitely not here to find him, and his partial division is not worthy.

Definitely went to Shouzhou.

He wanted to send someone to inform Shouzhou Daying.

But obviously, it doesn't make any sense at all, he can't protect himself now.Besides, the person who reported him must have arrived before the cavalry of the official army.

The only thing he wants to do now is to retreat to the camp.

But the official army will give him this chance?

Qiu Yuan, who failed to go to Shouzhou City with the brigade, took all her anger on the rebel army in front of her.

However, he didn't have a hot head and immediately led the charge. Instead, after the cavalry of the brigade passed, he led ten cavalry regiments under his command, using regiments as a team, to circle around the rebel army formation and attack with bows and arrows. The posture of charging and dancing, this is the traditional method of warfare of the cavalry against the infantry that is still in formation.

And Qiu Yuan led the only regiment of heavy cavalry, waiting for fighters outside.

In the front is the indissoluble formation of the officers and soldiers, and the cavalry on the side are still going around to harass and intimidate.

In this case, the distance from the collapse of the rebel formation is only a hair's breadth away.

And Qiu Yuan saw the right moment, and launched the last and most famous blow.

A regiment of hundreds of heavy cavalry was like a sharp sword, stabbing directly at the already crumbling rebel flank.

The rebel army finally began to flee, and the army formation could no longer be maintained. Seeing the current situation, Xue Jucheng was also changing his horse, and commanded the soldiers who were still in the formation to retreat into the camp.

But Liang Dai, Zhou Shize, and Qiu Yuan didn't intend to give him this chance.

The official army immediately charged with the whole army, and rushed bravely on the basis of the team, driving the rout of the rebel army straight into the enemy's camp.

The rebel army under the city of Zhengyang had already been completely defeated, only a thousand or so of the remaining troops retreated into the camp, and were followed and killed by the officers and soldiers.But most of the rout soldiers were not stupid, instead of running to the west of Shouzhou, they fled south one after another.

Qiu Yuan immediately sent several teams of cavalry to go south to pursue the forced-landing rebels. On the other hand, he also quickly formed a team. After meeting Zhou Shize and Liang Dai, he made some adjustments and led most of the cavalry to continue westward.

Under the city of Shouzhou, thousands of horses galloped, making the earth tremble.

There were still rebels attacking the city in the west and south of the city, and there was a mess all of a sudden.

The ground under their feet seemed to be shaking, and there seemed to be the sound of thunder rolling in their ears.

And what caught their eyes was a black torrent that was surging like the tide of the Qiantang River.

In the face of the rebel infantry who were attacking the city and had not formed an formation, there was no need to harass or test them, and a tidal wave rolled over.

Although it looks reckless, Fu Jinchuan's thinking is actually very clear.

With the cavalry capital of the Tiger Wing Army and the cavalry capital of the Shenwu Army, more than [-] rebels who attacked the west of the city went directly to Beiping to cover up and kill them.

With five thousand cavalry of the Longjie Army of the Shence Army, they charged directly at the rebels in the south of the city.

Since he and Wang Linhuai led the whole army of Longwu Army to support them, they stared at the rebel camp.As long as the rebels in the battalion dared to go out of the city to meet their own rout, this Yu Wan cavalry would directly charge over him.

Seeing this, Li Tuizhi, who was organizing the rebels to attack the city, hurriedly ordered all the troops to gather closer, in an attempt to fight against the cavalry army of the official army in a dense formation.

But in a hurry, how could there be time?
The rebel army, which was in a state of siege, did not have the tight formation of the infantry battle. When they saw the cavalry rushing, they naturally scattered and fled.

Although a small number of rebels quickly formed small formations under the organization of generals and schools at all levels, as if they were huddling together to keep warm in the cold snowy night.

Although these also caused some troubles for the cavalry of the official army, in the face of the surging iron cavalry, even if they gathered like a rock, they could only be crushed and submerged by the monstrous waves of the official army.

The sound of cavalry horses trampling on infantry, the sound of cavalry spears piercing through armor and human bodies, the muffled sound of blunt weapons slamming on the pockets, the buzzing of weapons colliding with weapons, and the call signs of officers and soldiers, The screams of the rebels
The sound is endless, converging into streams, into rivers and seas, breaking through turbulent waves.

It also becomes a needle, which is extremely harsh.

In the rebel camp, the rebels in the rear team quickly ran into the camp.

The high-ranking rebels in the military camp had been alarmed a long time ago. They gathered in front of the camp gate to watch the situation on the battlefield. At this moment, most of them were also in a daze.

The brigade cavalry of the official army is here, and they came from the west.

Whether it is the reinforcements from Guanzhong or Shangjing, it is difficult to rush to help in such a short period of time, so there are only two explanations.

The first is the arrival of Cheng Jintang, who was in charge of eliminating Honglian from the west.

Or. The big flag with the word "Fu" that caught your eye, its owner led a cavalry detour to Huaibei
It really is or.
The defeated soldiers kept pouring into the camp, and the generals who watched the battle had to retreat. At this time, Li Zichun suddenly said: "No good, the gate of the camp must be closed immediately."

This sound reminded the generals watching the battle.

Today the rebels put 5000 troops into the siege.The rest of the ministries have just gone through the rotation of the siege battle and are being repaired in the camp.

It is absolutely impossible to let the siege troops of more than 1 people outside be driven away by the official army, and become the vanguard of the official army and rush into the camp!
Otherwise, the tens of thousands of troops in the entire camp will be completely overwhelmed by the cavalry of the official army!
Liu Taiqing immediately issued an order to order the troops in charge of security in the camp to quickly close the door, and anyone who dared to rush through the door could be killed!

The cavalry of the official army continued to intersperse, trampling horses back and forth, hacking with spears and bayonets, covering up the rebels attacking their camp gates, and driving the rebels in the north and south of the city to the banks of the Huai River and Fei River.

The rebels were backlogged by the river, and many of them could only take off their armor and dive into the water to survive. However, the official cavalry, seeing the crowds were dense, did not charge directly, but took turns as a team to flank.

There were also routs of the brigade who fled directly to the south, and a part of the official army also split up to pursue the south to expand the results of the battle.

The defenders on the top of the city were very excited when they saw the reinforcements coming. After the request to go out of the city to help the battle was rejected, Lei Bo personally beat the drums to cheer for the reinforcements with a drumstick in his hand.

The battle lasted from noon to dusk, when the sun was setting.

The setting sun shone on the Huaihe River and Feishui River, covering up the scene that the river water had been stained crimson with blood.

In the end, the rebels who were divided and surrounded by the river, facing the iron cavalry of the official army, could only shed tears in pain and knelt down to ask for surrender.

In fact, the fighting spirit of these rebels was already very good. From noon to evening, the whole army was defeated before they surrendered on a large scale.

Fu Jinchuan, who is in the south of Shouzhou City, has not yet entered the city. After hearing the news of several rebels asking to surrender, his face was very cold.

Then he said two words firmly.

"No."
