Please ask me to be the emperor

Chapter 1346 Battle in the West of the City

The flanking attack tactic failed again, and the Houjin cavalry escaped in embarrassment after throwing down dozens of corpses.

Facing the "Moon Formation" that was like a tortoise shell of the rebels, the Houjin Cavalry, which had always been brave and brave, felt at a loss for the first time.

In desperation, General Houjin had no choice but to order the cavalry to continue harassing the rebels across the river while reporting the situation to Jiexiu City.

"Trash, two thousand fine cavalry can't even take down a battalion of 'Shun Thieves'!" Azig cursed angrily after hearing the report from Houjin's messenger.

It's no wonder that Azig was so angry. Since then, when the Jin Lao Khan and Wang Lao Nu cavalry came, they could be said to be invincible. How could they ever suffer such a loss?

He was defeated outside Taiyuan City before, and he could still say that the "Shun Thief" was cunning and fell into his trap.

If you can't beat a cat or a dog now, it doesn't make sense.

"Instruct the whole army to prepare for battle. Leave 4,500 people including Yang Guli and Mandarhan to guard the city, while the others will attack with me." Azig ordered.

This time, although the Hou Jin soldiers numbered 20,000, they actually suffered a lot of losses outside Taiyuan City. Now there are only 16,070 soldiers left.

Among them, Yangguli and Mandarhan were sent out to attack Lingshi and the three families of Wang, Ji and Hou. The soldiers were exhausted and could not go out to fight for the time being, so they could only stay in Jiexiu City.

As a result, Hou Jin's men and horses that can go out tonight are only about 12,000, which is basically the same as the men and horses who crossed the river under Zhang Sanbai.

This is really a chance to meet a good talent and an opponent in chess.

It's just that Azig didn't know that Zhang Sanbai still had so many troops in his hands.

According to his thoughts, not to mention that the number of rebels is less than his own, even if there are more, it is not easy to capture them.

The city of Jiexiu is small, but Jin has many soldiers.

Therefore, some were stationed in the city, and some were camped outside the city.

Following Azig's order, the city and the outside of Jiexiu City suddenly became lively, which only scared the people of Jiexiu City and kept them awake all night.

It can only be said that the people's intuition in Jiexiu City was very accurate. As expected, not long after, the wolf-like Hou Jin soldiers broke in and robbed all the quilts in the box and the cars in the yard. .

Those people were unarmed, who dared to resist?

Anyone who dared to shout a few words would be chopped to the ground by Hou Jin's soldiers.

But in this way, although these people dared to be angry but dared not speak out, the seeds of hatred towards Hou Jin were planted.

Upon seeing this, Fan Yongdou knew that he could no longer stay in his hometown in Xiucheng, so he quickly asked his servants to send letters to his wife and daughter in private, asking them to pack gold, silver, jewelry and other valuables, prepare horses and vehicles, and be ready to leave at any time.

Not to mention the situation in Jiexiu City, let's say that Azig and the Jin soldiers struggled for half the night, and then reluctantly left Jiexiu City and headed for the Fenhe River bank.

In the middle of the night, there is no light and no fire.

Although Houjin is located in Liaodong, a land of half fishing and half animal husbandry, and meat containing vitamin A accounts for a high proportion of the diet, it is still a bitter and cold place, and there are also many patients with night blindness.

Azig had no choice but to let the soldiers move forward in a row while holding on to the rope.

After arriving near Luo Wangzhuang, they lit the lights and arranged their troops in formation.

But no one expected that when the officials and the people saw the rebels forming up behind the river, and the Hou Jin soldiers had nothing to do, they became interested.

He was so bold that he sent 300 cavalrymen with many titles and horses, bypassing Houjin's scouts and suddenly came towards Azig who was arranging his troops.

Although Azig was conceited and brave, he was frightened to death this time.

At any rate, the guards and servants on the left and right fought to the death to protect him, and he was able to escape.

Only this time, although Azig was safe and sound, and the Houjin soldiers suffered little loss, the military formation that had been set up for a long time had been completely disrupted by the rebels, and morale was visibly lowered. Only Azig was My teeth are itching with anger.

"What an official who cares for the people, he did a great job!" Zhang Sanbai, who was on the ferry, heard the news and couldn't help but praise excitedly.

"The Japanese general underestimated him in the past. When I meet King Shun in the future, I will definitely say more kind words!"

It turned out that at this moment, the rebel army had also spent seven or seventy-eight years under the cover of night. After the troubles of the officials and the people, the time difference between the two sides was evened out.

After struggling like this for half a night, by the time it was dawn, the rebel army and Houjin formations had also been deployed one after another.

Zhang Sanbai stood in the middle of the army quite tiredly. Looking at the Houjin soldiers on the opposite side who had the same neat lineup, he didn't know how to start for a while.

The Hou Jin soldiers first traveled hundreds of miles and only rested for one day and one night in Jiexiu City. In the end, they were pulled out and tortured for the whole night. Although they were very exhausted, in fact, the rebels were not much better.

Except for Zhang Rukui's first battalion who stayed in Xiaoyi, the rest of the troops first captured Fenzhou City under the leadership of Zhang Sanbai, and then rushed seventy or eighty miles to the shores of the Fen River. Most of their physical strength had already been exhausted.

Therefore, despite the fact that both sides look neat and murderous, they actually feel a little weak in their hearts and dare not take action first.

"Zhang Shuai, something is not good!" At this moment, Zhang Rukui couldn't help but walked over and reminded him in a low voice.

"Now we are facing east, and Houjin is facing west. If the sun rises soon, we will fight against the light."

How could Zhang Sanbai not know about this?

The reason why he was so undecided was that he couldn't decide whether to let Zhang Rukui's battalion, who had the strongest strength, go forward and fight for a while, or whether to hold on for half a day and wait until the sun turned west before launching a counterattack.

Seeing that Zhang Rukui mentioned this matter, Zhang Sanbai wanted to ask his opinion.

Unexpectedly, before he could speak, Li Wanqing shouted and then hurried over with a horse.

"What's the matter?" Zhang Sanbai frowned and thought to himself: How come you still have time to bother me with trivial matters at this time?

"General, urgent information! Li Wanqing rushed to the scene. When he saw that the person next to Zhang Sanbai was Zhang Rukui, he couldn't help but said quickly.

"This man came from the Wang family compound. He has news to report to Zhang Shuai."

"Say!" Zhang Sanbai frowned.

You are an insignificant person, but you still take it personally if you lose money.

"Thank you general for going all the way to save the lives of my Wang family members. I kowtow to you here!" Who would have thought that when that man heard that Zhang Sanbai was the commander-in-chief of the three armies, he immediately knelt down with tears in his eyes.

Zhang Sanbai didn't know whether to laugh or cry, and couldn't help but said impatiently: "This is all the kindness of King Shun, I can't take it for anything."

"If nothing happens, leave as soon as possible. Don't miss the general's use of troops!"

"Ah? Ah! I still have something to say, I still have something to say!" Seeing that Zhang Sanbai was not easy to talk to, the man hurriedly kowtowed "bang bang".

"Say!" Zhang Sanbai felt that his patience was about to run out, and he wanted to stab him three times.

"That...that...our head of the family said...that our Wang family is going to join the rebels. In the future, 50%...oh no, 70% of the family's income will be given to the general..." The envoy secretly observed Zhang Sanbai. Color, while modifying his words.

"You want to die, don't you!" This time, before Zhang Sanbai could speak, Li Wanqing couldn't stand listening anymore and couldn't help shouting loudly, "Hurry up and tell Zhang Shuai about the military situation!"

"Ah? Yes, yes!" The man was confused after hearing the words, and said quickly, "Now our Wang, Ji, and Hou families have suffered greatly and are willing to join the rebel army."

"I just found out last night that the Jin soldiers were dispatched, and only three to five thousand tired troops were defending the city. As long as the general is willing, I and three dead soldiers hiding in Jiexiu City can open the city gate for the general, and cooperate with each other inside and outside..."
