I Xiaoxiong

Chapter 23 Infighting
Fu Jinchuan practiced martial arts since he was a child, practicing swords at the age of eight and spears at the age of 12.

But in this kind of large-scale cavalry battle, they like to use horses.

The horse lance is a weapon with a long blade, which can be stabbed, slashed, hacked, and smashed. It is very advantageous in riding battles.

However, this kind of weapon is very expensive to manufacture, and it often takes three years or even longer to make a qualified horse lance.

The horse spear in Fu Jinchuan's hand was made by a famous craftsman. The handle was processed with tung oil for three years. At this time, it is like a black dragon flying on the battlefield.

Wherever he went, there was a bloody storm.

The tiger ben followers behind him were also all wearing bright light armor, and followed behind without avoiding arrows to kill the barbarians of the golden tent.

In the other direction, the Baiting guards led by Shi Wannian were not to be outdone.

"Boys, but you can't let Fu Langjun underestimate our Baiting Shouzhuolang, who has made meritorious deeds, just today, kill him."

"kill."

Although the two cavalry troops had not undergone drills, they had a tacit understanding. This was mainly due to the rich combat experience of Shi Wannian and Fu Jinchuan.

After the big banner fell, the Golden Horde army lost the opportunity to gather the army again.The coach, Shi Liemen, was also fleeing desperately under the protection of his personal guards, and the power of that arrow could be said to have carved a deep imprint in his heart.

However, the strength of the Jin army is always limited, and there are too many compared with the Jinzhang army. The infantry attacking the city, the archers besieging the city, and the cavalry behind guarding about 2 people were killed by the [-] cavalry army of Fu Jinchuan Shi Wannian Disintegrated, but the three complete Leopard divisions retreated into the camp decisively because of the failure of the gate, so as not to be engulfed by the defeated army.

And when the defeated soldiers were driven in front of the camp gate, the leopard division who retreated into the camp decisively shot arrows to prevent the defeated soldiers from being driven into their own camp as the vanguard of the Jin army.

Among them, a large part of the reason is that the elite leopard masters have a much higher status in the Golden Horde than ordinary eagle masters, so they can say that they have no worries when shooting arrows.

The poor Yingshi's rout soldiers, who were killed by the Jin army, fled everywhere. They couldn't enter the gate of their own camp, so they had to go around the camp.

Some of the defeated soldiers fled to the seaside of Baiting, because there was no way to retreat, they jumped into the lake directly, and some were crowded into the water by their own people.

Most of the herdsmen in the north can't swim, so those who entered the lake can basically be judged as dead.

When Fu Jinchuan rushed to a distance of hundreds of steps from the Golden Tent camp, he ordered the two cavalry troops under his command to stop chasing.

The opponent's three complete leopards were blocked in the camp and couldn't get out, but it was also a dream for one's own side to break into the opponent's camp.

The disparity in troop strength is too great.

Although Fu Jinchuan is courageous, he is not a reckless man.In the absence of a fighter, he decisively chose to retreat and return to the city.

Although Shi Wannian's killing sprang up, his intentions were still unfinished, but the military order on the battlefield was like a mountain, and the soldiers behind him were exhausted, so they also obeyed the order.

"Lang Jun, what a joy, it's a damn joy to fight with you." Shi Wannian took off his armor as soon as he returned to the city, and came directly when he heard that Fu Jinchuan was on the city wall.

Guo Daifeng looked envious, after all, after this battle, Shi Wannian, the catcher, could be promoted to a higher level.

As for the general Fu Jinchuan, plus the contribution of Xiaoye City in front of him, a count is enough, and with the influence of the Fu family in the court, it is not a big problem to add a hereditary replacement.

There are two types of titles in Dajin, one is hereditary and the other is demotion.

However, the hereditary titles are extremely difficult to obtain, and almost all of them are honors only for the founding heroes.

His uncle, Guo Shixun, fought for 30 years but won an earl, which was not hereditary, but he was only a viscount when it came to his cousin.

"Congratulations sir."

Fu Jinchuan smiled and said: "The battle is not over yet, I will talk about it later. Guo Liulang, Shi Shouzhuo and I went out of the city to kill the enemy today. It is all up to you to defend the city. I thank you in advance."

Guo Daifeng hurriedly said: "Mr. Lang is polite. It's just a matter of business."

When Shi Wannian heard Fu Jinchuan's words, he hurriedly thanked Guo Daifeng.At this time, I thought to myself that Mr. Fu Lang was very thoughtful.

In the Jin army, in the past, there were examples where the generals defending the city were jealous of the achievements of the generals who went to battle, and deliberately did not open the city gates, so that the generals and soldiers who went out of the city were defeated and killed.

But after thinking about it, I felt that I was thinking too much. The one who went out of the city was Mr. Fu's family. If someone dared to harm him, I'm afraid he would be ripped off by the British public, and his bones would be crushed.

"With today's big victory, Baiting City should be stable for a few days. If the northern captives don't rest up for a few days and gather these routs, they won't be able to organize an attack on the city. Moreover, the ones defeated by us today should be Eagle Masters. Are you willing to use Leopard Division to attack the city?"

Shi Wannian knew the Golden Account army better than Fu Jinchuan and Guo Daifeng, so both of them were convinced by his judgment.

"But don't take it lightly. Today, Mr. Lang and Shi Shouzhuo will be exhausted when they go out to fight in the city. I will be on duty tonight."

Fu Jinchuan nodded after hearing this.

Shi Wannian clasped his fists and said, "Thank you so much General Guo Lang."

"You are Welcome."

Shi Liemen didn't expect that the first Jin army stronghold encountered by Nanxia was so difficult.

The [-]-strong army was defeated and killed by the Jin army, and he was almost shot to death by the Jin army.If the strength of the arrow is shot, there is absolutely no physiology.

After returning to the camp, I met my two younger brothers, Jin He and Shuhu, in the big tent, and I felt like I was alive after a catastrophe.

"Today, I underestimated the enemy. I didn't expect that the Jin army, with only 2000 people, dared to go out of the city to fight. I originally wanted the archers to go forward and suppress the Jin army's god-armed crossbow on the top of the city, but I didn't expect it to be a big mistake."

When Shi Liemen said this, his eyes were blurred with tears. He had never experienced such a defeat in leading troops in the past, so his heart inevitably felt a little sad.

Jin He comforted him and said: "Second Brother, although we lost today, only the three eagle divisions suffered a little loss, and the three elite leopard divisions were not damaged at all. Our main force is still there. When we fight again in the future, we will definitely be able to defeat the city in one fell swoop. The shame of defeat today."

"That's right, second brother, our wolf bloodline, today is just a small defeat, why should we worry about it? We will fight again when things are sorted out in the future."

Shuhu also persuaded.

These two people are staunch supporters of Shi Liemen, and the three brothers have always had a good relationship. Naturally, they want to comfort Shi Liemen when they see some depression.

"Thank you two brothers, but today it's my second brother's fault, but the Baiting City is indeed beyond the reach in three to five days, and now I'm frustrated here, but I don't know what to do next."

It's a bit embarrassing to lose the martyr's door.

The two also knew that Shi Liemen was telling the truth.

"Baiting City is not big, but the city walls are not low, and the guards in the city are also very courageous and foresight. Today, he caught this mistake and sent cavalry to attack without hesitation. I almost died on the spot. Except for the honest There seems to be no good way to take people's lives."

"But today's defeat, the eagle masters who have always been the pioneers of the siege have lost their fighting spirit, and driving the siege may cause mutiny.

The elite leopard masters can't be wasted here, after all, there are Xiutu City and Liangzhou City ahead."

In fact, Shi Liemen had already retreated again in his heart, but he sent troops to no avail, which was a great blow to his prestige.

dilemma.

"Why don't you bypass Baiting City?"

Shuhu thought for a long time and came up with a suggestion.

After hearing this, Shi Liemen and Jin He were speechless.

Going around the city, even a small city, is a great risk to the army, so it can be said that it is a taboo for military strategists.

More than a hundred years ago, the grasslands in the north were still under the control of the Zhaowu Khanate. At that time, Fuyun Khan of the Zhaowu Khanate was known as "the pride of a generation". He gathered hundreds of thousands of troops and went south. Give full play to the characteristics of grassland people's combat.

Relying on plundering supplies all the way, the army reached the capital of the Great Zhou Dynasty at that time, but was unable to attack for a long time.

On the way to retreat, the bypassed cities became obstacles one by one.

The army was almost dead and wounded, and fled back to the north in embarrassment. The Khan, who was called "the pride of the generation", also died of illness on the way.

It was also because of that war that the Golden Horde was able to rise.Da Zhou was also replaced by Da Jin.

So it is absolutely impossible to talk about passing around the city.

"I mean, we pretended to go around town."

Shuhu continued to explain.

"You mean, lure the enemy out of the city?"

Shi Liemen's eyes lit up when he heard this, but in an instant he felt that it wouldn't work.

"Bai Ting can only guard the city with a maximum of 2000 people. Even if we pretend to go south, the possibility of them chasing us is very small. Forget it, we will gather the rout troops tomorrow, and we are making calculations."

The Jinzhang was defeated, but the number of casualties was only a few thousand, and a large part of them were trampled on by each other. Not many were actually killed by the Jin army.

But it had a great impact on the morale of the army, and many soldiers under the Eagle Division fled.

There is no way to lose the dead, but the military law can only be strictly enforced, and the bloody deserter's head is used to warn the army.

Under such circumstances, although the fleeing situation of the three dissatisfied eagle masters has improved slightly, the hearts of the people are indeed getting more and more war-weary.
And the hatred for the main forces of the Leopard Division is also increasing.

Because the fugitive soldiers were captured by the elite Leopard Divisions and brought back for execution, many of the fugitives belonged to the same tribe, and some were old acquaintances of relatives, so there was also an undercurrent between the Eagle Division and the Leopard Division.

In such a situation, Fu Jinchuan on Baiting City has always been paying attention. Some herdsmen of the Eagle Master went directly to Baiting City to beg for surrender in order to avoid the pursuit of the Leopard Master.

Of course, it is impossible for Fu Jinchuan to accept the enemy's surrender on a large scale in such a critical time, but it is still possible to pull up a few through the hanging basket to find out the information.

"These sons of the leopard division, they hide behind in the war, and they are capable of killing our own people."

"Who made them belong to the royal family?"

Inside the camp, an eagle master said angrily.

After Fu Jinchuan listened to it, he remained silent. Shi Wannian waved his hand and someone put the soldiers down, and then asked.

"What's your plan, Mr. Lang?"

Fu Jinchuan shook his head, "Let me think about it again, no hurry, no hurry."

After he finished speaking, he turned around and left the camp, and the other generals naturally left without saying a word.

On the contrary, Guo Daifeng and Shi Wannian continued to stay in the camp.Although they didn't know each other for a long time, they all knew that this gentleman must have some idea of ​​defeating the enemy.

What they have to do now is to wait with peace of mind.

After a while, Fu Jinchuan came in again and saw that the two were still there, "You guys?"

Guo Shi and the two looked at each other with a smile, clasped their fists together and said.

"Your Majesty, please give me instructions."

Seeing this, Fu Jinchuan also laughed. It is a pleasure to work with smart people.

　Thank you for your support, please share your opinions.
