The Maojin knife from the late Jin Dynasty

Chapter 191 Liu Kun licks the bag
The fall of the king's banner extinguished the last vestige of fighting spirit of the huge and bloated front army.

Some of these soldiers decisively threw away their weapons and surrendered, while others spread their legs and ran away desperately.

Of course, he waved the weapon in his hand blankly, thinking that relying on the weapon in his hand could give him a little warmth, but instead he was attacked by Liu Tai's army.

Of course, there is no doubt about the frontal defeat, but Qi Hong's Red Blood Cavalry on the flanks, or Wang Ming's Royal Guards, it is impossible for them to see the king's flag fall at the first time like the former army.

In other words, they had rushed deep into Liu Tai's army and wanted to penetrate Liu Tai's army. They did not expect Wang Jun to be defeated so quickly, so they could not observe the situation for a while.

After all, they knew that Liu Tai's army was elite, but they had never imagined how elite it was!
All fifty thousand soldiers were wearing armor, and even the most ordinary leather armor gave them excellent defense against swords.

Secondly, these soldiers also have very rich combat experience. They are not like ordinary recruits at all. They are extremely familiar with the battlefield and have rich battlefield experience that even these noble cavalry do not have.

Whenever the cavalry attacked them, they always took the initiative to expose irrelevant parts of their bodies and decisively exchanged with these cavalry.

Either cut off the horse's legs directly, or directly pierce the cavalry, so that every value of their exchange is maximized.

What was most incredible to the two cavalrymen was that this army was not afraid of the cavalry charge.

As the vanguard continued to be weakened, they still failed to penetrate this unit.

On the contrary, as these warriors advanced one after another, risking their lives to stop these cavalry, both cavalry fell into the quagmire.

If you compare it carefully, Qi Hong's Red Blood Cavalry charges shallower, while Wang Ming's Royal Guards charges deeper.

Zhou Ping glanced at the two cavalrymen. Although he looked a little unhappy at Qi Hong, he decided to encircle and suppress Wang Ming first.

Because Qi Hong obviously had enough vigilance and respect for his own army.

Therefore, when the three sprinting parties sprint together, they also take the initiative to cross from the flanks, but in the end they have some reservations.

Obviously, if the situation is not good, it will be a strong man's wrist. He should give up and be ready to retreat at any time.

It can only be said that Qi Hong is really enlightened when it comes to abandonment tactics such as cutting off the gecko's tail, and he can do what he says he can do.

So when he noticed that the king's flag was falling, Qi Hong without hesitation abandoned some of the cavalry fighting on the front line, and rushed out decisively from the flank, hoping to escape.

But after all, Wang Ming was a relative of Wang Jun, so he tried his best to penetrate Liu Tai's army the deepest.

So this army is doomed.

After all, Liu Tai could not have led his headquarters to crush Wang Jun's army. As a result, Zhou Ping was guarding the army and was pierced by the Wang family's guards.

So at this moment, Zhou Ping seemed to be sending off the Red Blood Cavalry led by Qi Hong, and the soldiers wherever they passed took the initiative to give Qi Hong's Red Blood Cavalry a way out. However, the Wang family's imperial guards were killed under Zhou Ping's deliberate attack. Surrounded by people.

In an instant, the Wang family guards who were still massacred were directly surrounded and killed by Liu Tai's army after losing the most important speed of the cavalry. One after another, spears were stabbed on horses or people. Make sure they die completely.

It has to be said that this Wang family's imperial guards are indeed elite. The casualties they caused to Liu Tai's army accounted for almost half of the total casualties of Liu Tai's army.

This not only shows their desperate counterattack as a trapped beast, but also inevitably shows their will to fight. However, with Wang Jun's death, they only have the will to die.

Watching the war gradually come to an end, Wang Jun's army was able to escape and die, and captured the prisoners.

Compared with fighting for their lives on the battlefield, it was now the busiest time for Liu Tai's army to start capturing these soldiers.

Of course, equally busy was the medical camp, which was overwhelmed by the massive number of injured in an instant.

Even though Meng Dong and others had tried their best to imagine the wounded caused by this war, it was still difficult to imagine the impact of this massive number of patients. The entire medical camp was completely busy, trying to treat as many injured patients as possible.

At the same time, because the overall situation had been decided, Liu Tai even pulled the prisoners out of the prisoner camp and asked them to rescue the Youzhou soldiers.

Liu Taida said openly to these prisoners:
"Although they are soldiers under Wang Jun's command, they are also our Han people.

They did something wrong, but God is kind. After the doctors in the medical camp rescue the soldiers who were injured for our great righteousness, they will be free to rescue these soldiers.

But before that, I hope you can help take good care of these injured soldiers and keep them alive as much as possible! "

After hearing Liu Tai's words, the soldiers who were captured for various reasons only felt a rising warmth in their hearts, and they firmly believed in Liu Tai's kindness.

They also began to help Liu Tai take care of the wounded prisoners and reduce the corresponding casualties as much as possible.

Liu Tai knew very well that he could not be fair in this era, so he could not let these losers enjoy the resources of the medical camp first.

Because in the eyes of doctors, every patient should enjoy the equal right to be rescued, but as the leader of the Qingzhou political group, he must give priority to ensuring the survival rights of his soldiers.

But at the same time, what he hopes is to unify the world and reunite the hearts of the Han people.

Therefore, he could not just watch these injured waiting to die these days, so he asked the prisoners from the prisoner camp to come forward to rescue them.

In addition to the prisoners in these prisoner camps, he will also select some soldiers to go with them to rescue the injured, helping them until the medical camp frees up manpower, so that they also have the right to be rescued.

From the perspective of the prisoners in the prison camp, they did not expect Liu Tai to be able to do this.

Because although the hope was slim, Liu Tai really showed his kindness in the end.

Of course, the most important thing is that during these days, Liu Tai was instilling the greatness of the Han Dynasty while telling them about the shamelessness of the Sima family.

This also makes these people who are only one step away from being converted into Han people instinctively feel that these Jin soldiers who fought against the Han are guilty.

If they can't hold on until the medical camp is free to treat them, then God is destined to blame others.

After defeating Wang Jun head-on, Liu Tai decisively let his soldiers pursue him. Zaosong and Wang Jun were trampled to pieces by Liu Xia's horse hooves. Although Qi Hong escaped smoothly and even joined Hu Ju, he was reminded by Yang Yu. He fled to Bingzhou Liu Kun.

However, Hu Ju refused to agree because he had killed Liu Kun's clan brother Liu Xi, and Liu Tai's army got involved again after a slight delay.

In the end, Hu Ju chose to die in battle, and Qi Hong once again led the Red Blood Cavalry to escape. As for Yang Yu, he was captured by Liu Tai.

In this war, in addition to Yang Yu, the captured subordinates of Wang Jun also included Wang Ti, Pei Xian, Xun Chuo, Liu Hanxing, Liu Yin, Li Hong and others. The military generals included You Lun, You Tong, Sun Wei and others. .

However, Qi Hong fled to Gaoyang County to join Li Hun Bo Sheng. After the three discussed with each other, they finally decided to seek refuge with Liu Kun.

The soldiers led by Li Hun and Bo Sheng were mainly peasant soldiers. In terms of classification, they were a type of beggar army like Tian Zhen. They even hung out with Sima Yue at the beginning, and they were somewhat popular. Affection.

But when they chose to side with Sima Yue, they separated from Liu Tai.This left them faced with the choice between Liu Tai and Liu Kun, and they finally chose Liu Kun instead of Liu Tai.

After all, they couldn't guarantee whether Liu Tai would kill them.

They are just little warlords who have climbed up from the bottom step by step. If they have any idea of ​​unifying the world, it would be a bit too high for them.

Therefore, their actions are more based on their own bad likes and dislikes.

As Liu Tai rectified his soldiers, he took advantage of the situation to attack Youzhou and captured Fanyang County, Shanggu County, Yanguo County, Beiping County, Liaoxi County and other counties. They also took a large part of Wang Jun's remnants and decisively defected to Liu. Kun.

And Liu Kun didn't expect that this time he had no intention of taking action against Youzhou due to the oath of the covenant. He just wanted to gain more people to restore his strength.

But with Wang Jun's defeat, not only was the main force defeated, but his hometown was also taken away by Liu Tai.

This caused all Wang Jun's subordinates to inexplicably seek refuge with Liu Kun.

After all, the only Western Jin force left in the Jin court in the north now is Liu Kun. Where would they go if not here?

In an instant, Liu Kun, who was already in dire straits, suddenly took a big pill and took advantage of the situation to occupy Daijun in Youzhou.

For a time, it seemed to have returned to its original state of being the dominant force in the north with many soldiers inside and Xianbei cavalry outside.

Liu Kun's happiness came too suddenly at this time, and he could only lick Wang Jun's inheritance with tears.

Compared to Liu Kun's happiness, what Shi Le felt was fear.

To be honest, he did think that Liu Tai was very strong and Liu Tai was very likely to win this war.

But according to Shi Le and Zhang Bin's expectations, even if Liu Tai killed Wang Jun, he would only occupy Jizhou at most. Wang Jun could retreat to Youzhou and compete with Liu Tai again.

At that time, he will either go to Liu Kun to fight the autumn wind, or go to Wang Jun to fight the autumn wind. At least even if Wang Jun dies, he will have to squeeze out a few liters of oil.

But I never expected that in just one war, Wang Jun, who had been operating in the north for a long time, not only died, but even Youzhou, where he started, was taken over by Liu Tai.

What Liu Tai Bingfeng pointed out instantly swallowed up all of Wang Jun's territory.

To be honest, Shi Le's script was definitely not like this at the beginning. He had already used Changshan and Zhongshan as springboards to invade Youzhou, but now, he really didn't dare to move.

Liu Tai decided the outcome in such a clean and neat battle, which immediately frightened Shi Le.

Not only did Youzhou dare not think about it, but he also quickly withdrew the Qinghe Kingdom's army and sent an envoy to give Yuan Yan a gift and ask him to mediate.

Wang Jun knew that Liu Tai was cruel, so he had no choice but to fight Liu Tai head-on.

But he never expected that Liu Tai would be so cruel and would not give an ordinary warlord like him a way to survive.

Shi Le couldn't help but look back and think about it. Since Liu Tai led the army independently, as long as it was a battle led by Liu Tai himself, the most outstanding thing was that one battle determined the country. After defeating the opponent, he basically lost the ability to make a comeback. It can be said that it was clean and neat. .

What makes Shi Le even more troublesome is that he doesn't mind being soft to Liu Tai, and he can be Liu Tai's son.

The worst case scenario is finding an opportunity to plot against him directly. After all, he can't be beaten head-on. As long as he can kill Liu Tai and lose face, it doesn't matter.

But the problem is that the hatred between himself and Liu Tai is really deep. This depth makes Liu Tai choose to kill himself instead of accepting his surrender.

What was originally called conspiracy, when he faced Liu Tai, Liu Tai inherently did not trust him.

In addition, Liu Tai relied on Wang Mi's foundation to reach this point, so killing himself in this way is inherently politically correct.

If other opponents can't beat him, he can surrender, but facing Liu Tai, he has nowhere to surrender if he wants to.

Since you can't surrender, you can only find ways to increase your strength.

This time in the war between Liu Tai and Wang Jun, the two sides fought too quickly. The decisive battle was completed in one battle, leaving no time for them to invade Wang Jun's land.

But no matter what, I got Changshan and Zhongshan easily. Although it was a bit of a loss, it also strengthened my strength to some extent.

But look again, Liu Tai not only took over the two counties of Jizhou at one time, but also swallowed up the land of Youzhou.

Although Dai Jun was taken advantage of by Liu Kun, compared with Liu Tai's rich gains in this one breath, and looking at his own petty profits, he was really not happy at all, and felt very heartbroken!

So at this moment, Shi Le looked at Zhang Bin with a bit of confusion, and said with a wry smile:

"Our plan has been cancelled. Meng Sun, what do you think is better for us to choose next!"

"Let's take all the land north of the Yellow River first!" Zhang Bin said calmly,

"Originally, Wang Jun and Liu Tai were fighting, and we were afraid that they would sweep us away in one go, so we needed to gather our troops.

But now that Wang Jun has been destroyed, Liu Tai needs to recuperate. As for Liu Kun, although he has taken over Wang Jun's legacy, it cannot be digested in an instant.

And we can now spare some time to conquer the land north of the Yellow River, especially Jie County.

Now Liu Tai's salt is widely used in our counties. If we become enemies with him in the future and cut off our salt, it will be troublesome.

Therefore, it is safer to have supplies such as salt in your own hands! "

When Shi Le heard this, he breathed a sigh of relief.

After all, he still has a path to take and can still strengthen himself, so there is no need for him to collide with Liu Tai.

No matter what you say, you should first take all the land you can eat into your own hands.

Of course, as the news of Liu Tai's victory over Wang Jun continued to drift north, Zu Ti, who had been following Yu Yao in a battle of wits and courage in Taishan County these days, turned pale.

Obviously, with Wang Jun's defeat, there is no point in continuing to spend time here.

So Zu Ti chose to retreat, and even dismissed some of the soldiers who were unwilling to leave, and began to head towards Yuzhou.
