Became a feudal lord in the late Northern Song Dynasty

Chapter 266: Anyone who sees the Han army retreat in a hundred steps can be called brave
Qian Gai began to scold Tan Zhen, Tong Guan, and the person who delivered the military report.

They're all a bunch of idiots!

The main force of the Han army is with me!
At this moment, in addition to being powerless and furious, he also felt a deep sense of grievance.

My side is obviously the weakest of the four-pronged army. The total number of old, weak, sick and disabled people in the whole army can open a hundred rehabilitation centers for the elderly. Why do you want to come and beat me up?

The military drum began to beat, and the sound of the drum was loud. A series of black lines appeared on the distant horizon, and then began to rise slowly like a rising tide, forming a black wave that kept advancing.

Surrounded in the center of countless black flags is a King Wu dragon banner fluttering in the wind!

When the emperor went on patrol, he used forty dragon flags of five colors, but the Han army only had one dragon flag. The flag was scarlet, with gilded corners. In the center of the flag was a black dragon lying in a ferocious roaring shape. The long tassels at the bottom of the flag fluttered in the wind. Flying like a dragon's tail hanging down.

On both sides of the dragon flag are the Feiyan flags unique to the Northern Army of Yandi Town, guarding the surrounding areas.

"Five years, or six years?"

Under the dragon banner, Liu Ling jumped out of the chariot, looked at Zhen Wuchen coming on horseback, and asked.

"Send someone to send an order and tell the Song army on the opposite side that if they surrender now, let bygones be bygones, their generals and officers can still be retained, and their officers and soldiers who want to go home will be given travel expenses and allowed to go home. "

"Brother Zhao died fighting for the country. Gao Fengyuan is in Hebei. Now, you are the only one who can follow me all the way here. Lao Zhen, if you want to survive later, in this world, I will have to rely on the help of brothers like you to be able to sit still." "

After a while, Liu Ling put down his arm, adjusted his arm guard, and looked up at Zhen Wuchen.

Liu Ling spread his arms, Zhen Wuchen stood up, took the armor from the soldier next to him, and put it on for Liu Ling. His movements were quick and steady.

"It's still early, still very early."

"General, please pay homage to Your Majesty!"

He can be any character, but in the hearts of these soldiers, he, Liu Ling, is destiny.

From the initial Zhuozhou Army, to the Changsheng Army, to the Zhenyuan Army, and now the Zhenbei Army.

Although there are many other soldiers and horses in the Han army, there is only this one. The whole army has followed Liu Ling from the beginning. Whether they are always in the army or later added as fresh blood, they can only Stay loyal to one person.

Zhen Wuchen did not answer, but immediately got off his horse and bowed his head respectfully to the man.

"My lord, I understand."

"The Lord has mercy."

"It's been a few years, and there are not many old brothers left at the beginning."

Liu Ling waved his hand casually. He used the dragon flag today just to boost morale, but the morale of the entire army seemed to be boosted too much.

Liu Ling has no idol baggage from beginning to end, but he pays great attention to creating his own personality in the eyes of the entire army.

Zhen Wuchen hurriedly bowed and saluted, his voice even choked with sobs.

King Jing Gong of the Great Song Dynasty once wrote a poem: Two mountains are lined with gates to bring green.

But right now, all that appeared in front of Song Jun was an endless black wave.

The ground trembled, and the sound of horse hooves gathered together like thunder. A group of black-armored cavalry appeared on the flank, followed immediately by another group. The black-armored cavalry appeared almost continuously, but hundreds of steps away, these cavalry soldiers all turned over. dismount. Immediately afterwards, two messenger cavalry galloped out of the formation and went straight to the front of the Song army formation. They rode across the formation as if they were in front of their own army formation and shouted in Chinese: "Surrender now and you can go home!"

Two Han army envoys were quickly brought to Qian Gai.

Qian Gai rode his horse, leaned over to look at the two men, and asked in a deep voice: "Is the King of Han still in the army?"

"My master said, if you surrender, you will avoid death!"

Qian Gai took a deep breath and was no longer too lazy to talk too much nonsense to the two military envoys. He said coldly: "Beat the drum and go to war."

The drums of the Song Army had just beaten, and after a moment of silence in the Han Army's formation, military orders came out one after another. Liu Ling rode a white horse and looked at Zhen Wuchen: "Beat the drums and go to battle!"

On the flanks of the Han army, a large number of soldiers got on their horses again, and began to urge the horses to walk quickly under the orders of their superiors.

For a time, countless flags surged.

The banks of the Luoshui River are full of shoals and mud. It stands to reason that at most the infantry will fight in front and the archers will suppress them. As for the black-armored cavalry, as long as the generals of the Han army are not bad, they will definitely not let the cavalry fight in this kind of situation. Take the initiative to attack or pursue under the circumstances.

Moreover, the battlefield area is not large.

In this thought of "No matter how hard I try, I can't get in", I found out the reason why the Han cavalry divided into small groups. They divided into several groups and began to speed up one after another. For a while, the Luoshui River surged, and the horse hoofs trampled the ground, as if Create a certain rhythm.

Each team of Han cavalry had no more than two hundred people at most, but they charged directly towards the military formation composed of thousands of Song infantry.

This move seems stupid.

The Song army also began to use bows and crossbows to suppress them under the order. From time to time, black-armored cavalry would be hit by arrows and fall off their horses, but most of the cavalry were wearing heavy armor and would often rush forward with arrows all over their bodies.

Three hundred steps away, the Song army barely maintained its formation and began to fire arrows continuously.

Within two hundred steps, the Song Army's front army began to collapse. Two officers rode their horses into the crowd and wanted to scold the soldiers to go back and stick to their posts. However, including the frightened horses, they were all forced back by the crowd.

When the Han cavalry rushed to a distance of a hundred steps, countless banners with Song characters fell down from the front to the flanks, and the crowd began to run towards the rear in a chaotic manner, not noticing the menacing Han cavalry behind them. Slow speed.

"Our army is defeated!"

"Our army is defeated!"

On the opposite side, a group of Han generals who looked up looked a little confused. Most of them were ready to lead their troops into the Song army, engage in a hearty fight, and completely tear apart a corner of the Song people's so-called encirclement. .

But the Han army only used cavalry in the early stage to test whether the Song people's position was stable, and then they were frightened away.

Thousands of people stood on the bank of the river. The people behind and on both sides could not actually see the fighting situation of the front army. However, most of the people in the front army were composed of Xiang troops and had no combat effectiveness at all. However, it cannot be said that they have everything. They didn't do it. After all, they still shot at the Han army for several rounds before they collapsed.

Although the rear army and the two wings cannot see how the front army resists the enemy, if the front army collapses, they will most likely collapse directly.

The soldiers of the Song army who could really fight with the Han army for a while and then retreat have long since disappeared.

Qian Gai rode out of the central army on his horse. He was so angry at the sight of countless defeated soldiers that his eyes turned black. Just when he was about to scold the defeated soldiers and turned back, the deputy general rode over, grabbed Qian Gai's horse and said urgently. : "The army was completely routed in less than half a moment. Sir, it is better for you to make plans early!"

"Plan, what are you planning to do now?" Qian Gai shouted, and then he was suddenly stunned.
