Everyone on both sides was stunned by this sudden turn of events. The first person to react was not the elite Jin soldiers who had experienced hundreds of battles, nor were they experts like Shi Wengong. Instead, it was the oldest Zeng Nong. In the blink of an eye, he was shouting loudly: "The Jin people invaded our Song Dynasty. The sons of Zengtou City are protecting our family and killing the enemy today. Kill them!"
As the saying goes, a child knows better than his father. Zeng Nong understood Zeng Suo's intention in just a short moment. After seeing the leader Hua Mo being severely injured by Zeng Sheng's knife, he felt that this was an opportunity. . Now that we have turned against each other, we must do everything possible and strike first to catch the golden man off guard!
The shouting from this voice immediately lifted the spirits of the people in Zengtou City. They shouted out one after another and rushed forward waving weapons. Although many people here are still confused, they clearly had a good relationship with the Jurchens before, so why are they suddenly in a life-or-death fight? But driven by the habit of obeying orders, hundreds of young men rushed over without hesitation, and immediately collided with the golden soldiers, starting a fierce fight.
Even though these people in Zengtou City are not government troops, their combat effectiveness is much higher than that of the general Song Dynasty rural army. After all, compared to the rural army who are just dawdling, they have the responsibility to defend their homeland and have more training in their daily life. Because of the dedication, the overall quality will naturally be higher.
On the Jin soldiers side, one of them had just experienced a rout and was already in low morale. The incident between the two happened suddenly. Even Garukamo, the leader, was plotted and injured. At this time, the hasty response to the battle naturally seemed a bit panicked, and he was suddenly killed. The people of Zengtou City were beaten back steadily, and in the blink of an eye, more than ten people were killed by the soldiers of the Zeng family.
He could hear the screams coming continuously in his ears, and his face was covered with blood. The face of Hua Mo, who was heavily injured and was being dragged back, twisted rapidly. He never imagined how things that were clearly under his control would turn out. The land has become what it is today.
I thought I could easily seize Lingzhou City, plunder all the property and food in the city, and give life to the tribesmen who suffered from the winter snow disaster. However, unexpectedly, things went wrong one after another. Not only was the Song army defeated, but even my own brother could be killed. Already died in the previous battle. Now, the Zeng family, who thought they were in control, suddenly turned against them and wanted to kill all of them. This was something he could not accept no matter what.
The anger had gone straight to Tian Ling Gai, making both of his eyes blood red. He could no longer care about any future plans, and naturally he could no longer care about his injuries. He immediately broke away from the pull of one of his men and drew the knife behind his hand. , then yelled: "You traitors all deserve to die! Kill them all!" While shouting, Hua Mo rushed forward, spotted a young man from the Zeng family, and stabbed him with a knife. With a slash, the man's head was immediately cut off.
After hearing his roar and seeing his ferocious counterattack, the Jin soldiers who were still a little dazed before quickly came to their senses. Their eyes once again showed a dangerous and bloodthirsty light like wild beasts, and they were howling strangely. In the sound, these guys completely ignored the opponent's weapon that was stabbing in front of them, and slashed at the enemy in front of them with their swords in a fighting posture.
For a moment, screams continued. Those people from Zengtou City who took advantage of the situation and rushed over quickly fell down. Others
He also began to retreat, appearing to be shrinking. Once the Jin soldiers counterattacked with all their strength, their ferocious momentum quickly frightened the opponent. In the final analysis, the people in Zengtou City were just a group of local armed forces, and they were not truly elite in a hundred battles.
Especially after seeing that their relatives and friends who were familiar to them were being killed one after another, and the knives and guns they stabbed at each other did not seem to affect the enemy's killing actions, these people even wanted to retreat, their forward movements slowed down, and they quickly retreated from the attack. Turning to the defensive, some people even began to retreat.
As soon as he retreated, Jin Bing immediately seized the opportunity. They are the best at fighting this kind of hard-fought frontal battle. Even thousands of Song Dynasty official troops cannot withstand their momentum, let alone a few hundred Zeng family soldiers. As a result, the roar became louder, and the forward momentum became more fierce, until the advantage that the Zeng family had just established immediately disappeared, and they could only retreat in embarrassment, with people falling down all the way, and the situation of the battle had completely reversed.
Zeng Nong and others couldn't believe what they saw. It was obvious that their own troops had more troops, and that they had taken the absolute initiative at the beginning, but this golden soldier actually reversed the entire situation in just a moment, and compared with them. For example, my own soldiers are too vulnerable!
Zeng Suo's face also became extremely gloomy. Looking at the children in the town who kept falling, his heart was bleeding, because this battle was caused by him. If this battle was really defeated, then his The responsibility is too great. At that moment, he no longer cared about his own safety. He shouted loudly, drew his knife in his hand, and charged towards the golden soldiers in front of him with big strides.
Affected by this, Zeng Sheng, Zeng Kui, Shi Wengong and others roared out of the queue and engaged in head-on confrontation with the enemy.
As these masters of the Zeng family joined the battle, the originally one-sided battle situation was finally restored. Although those golden soldiers were brave and fearless, they were obviously no match against the masters who were skilled in martial arts. After they kill a Zeng family member, they will often be attacked by a gun or a knife from the side. If they are not careful, they will be killed. This will also discourage their forward momentum. This time The battle actually showed a delicate balance again.
Just like this, the sound of fighting resounded throughout the countryside and continued to spread, allowing Sun Tu's troops a few miles away and the defenders at the head of Lingzhou City to hear clearly.
At the head of Lingzhou City, in fact, after the battle in the direction of Zengtou City, they had noticed that something had happened there. However, out of distrust of the Zeng family and the heavy responsibility of defending the city, the governor Chu Mingsheng did not want to leave the city at all. What does it mean to find out, let alone send troops to rescue: "Maybe this is a conspiracy used by Zengtou City in cooperation with the Jurchens, just to lure us out of the city. What we have to do now is to strictly guard the city and never Don’t give the thieves any opportunity to take advantage of you!”
"Captain Yingming." The subordinates were naturally happy to stay in the safe city, and they all said so immediately. As for the sounds of fighting that continued to come from there, they turned a deaf ear.
Different from the indifference of the defenders in the city, the Qingzhou army, which was determined to continue chasing the Jin soldiers, still pursued them after a short rest. After hearing about the sudden fight, Sun Tu ordered the entire army to be careful. , but still led the troops and slowly moved closer.
When the two armies were in a stalemate and were fighting inextricably, the Qingzhou Army finally appeared behind the Jin soldiers and saw this fierce battle scene.
After seeing that only a few hundred disciples could fight against such elite Jin soldiers for a long time, Sun Tu also showed admiration in his eyes: "Actually, it's not that the Song Dynasty was incompetent, but that the imperial officials and soldiers were too unbearable. But the civilians Some soldiers and horses are far more courageous and capable than the regular army!"
"Captain, are you going to kill them and attack them from both sides?" Some of the subordinates were also greatly surprised when they saw this and began to ask for orders.
Sun Tu nodded lightly. There was no moral issue to be had with the invading Jin soldiers. The key was to annihilate them all. At that moment, he slowly raised his gun and said loudly: "Brothers, this is the time to make great achievements and protect your home and country. Come and kill with me!"
"Kill!" Everyone in the Qingzhou Army shouted loudly, and followed Sun Tu's footsteps towards the back of the Jin soldiers who were fighting hard with the Zeng family soldiers. At this time, the Jin soldiers were really in a desperate situation, with soldiers blocking them in front and pursuing them in the back. Although Sun Tu was still one or two miles away from them, with their impact speed, it wouldn't take a while before the back road would be attacked. , the collapse occurred in an instant.
Seeing this, everyone in the Zeng family was also in high spirits. The sword in Zeng Sheng's hand danced like two haloes of light, and he chopped off the heads of the two golden soldiers almost at the same time, with a majestic and murderous look. The other brothers and Shi Wengong were also like him, constantly harvesting the lives of the already frightened Jin soldiers. It seemed that this Jin army would be buried here without the Qingzhou Army taking action.
Hua Mo was so anxious that blood and tears rolled down his eyes. He had never considered such a desperate situation. Watching the warriors in his clan continue to fall, it made him feel anxious and cold all over. By this time, he could no longer care about any other thoughts. After slashing the enemy in front of him with one blow and dodging Zeng Suo's shot, he suddenly roared loudly: "You still want to watch, wait..." Are we all going to die here? Don’t do anything yet!”
His roar really made people confused. At this time, everyone was involved in the battle. Do their golden soldiers still have the strength to retain it? With some fear in their hearts, many people deliberately slowed down their pace and glanced around, fearing that a killer would suddenly appear in the darkness.
But as a result, there was no movement around him, which made everyone immediately think that he was bluffing. Zeng Kui even laughed ferociously: "Stop bluffing people at this time. Grandpa is not scared!" As he said that, the long ax in his hand struck Hua Mo's head, but he nimbly dodged it. past.
But just when everyone thought he was deceiving, something unexpected happened. A person who had been ignored suddenly moved at this moment. In the flash of cold light, several Zeng family members who were guarding Zeng Nong screamed and fell down one after another. Then a steel knife was placed on this Zeng family member. The owner's throat.
It wasn't until he finished all this that he shouted loudly: "Whoever dares to do anything again, Zeng Nongke will be dead!"
As soon as the sound came out, everyone was shocked. Especially the five sons of the Zeng family and Shi Wengong, who were fighting in front, showed disbelief when they turned to look back. Suddenly, their eyes were about to burst, and they opened their mouths and shouted: "Su Ding, how dare you..."
