"Ambush?" Guan Tianxia was also taken aback, subconsciously looking into the woods, but now that night is falling, the woods are even darker, and I can't see what's inside. However, Li Weihua's words also caused Guan Tianxia to shudder. Now the chasing troops are so close behind, if there is another army in the woods, then they will be annihilated
"Shoo." Just when Guan Tianxia and Li Weihua were overwhelmed in shock, suddenly there was a sound of breaking through the air, and an arrow suddenly flew from behind. Lifting the three-pointed two-edged sword in his hand, he slashed the arrow directly out of thin air. Looking back again, he found that the chasing soldiers were a lot closer. At the forefront of the cavalry, a warrior was holding a longbow and was maintaining an archery posture. Needless to say, the arrow just came from him. Projected. Guan Tianxia could also see clearly that this archery fighter was Xia Jiajun General Yang Huai.
"Damn it!" Guan Tianxia couldn't help cursing, and now it really made him a little embarrassed. To stay here, he can only sit and wait for death, but if he ventures into the woods, he will be confronted by the army in the woods. , There is only a dead end.
After thinking for a while, Guan Tianxia gritted his teeth and made a decision: "Enter the forest. Everyone enters the forest." Staying here is undoubtedly mortal. There is at least a chance to venture into the forest. Li Weihua around him clearly understands this truth. , Opened his mouth, and said nothing.
Immediately, all the Qingqi soldiers entered the woods under the leadership of Guan Tianxia and Li Weihua, but even so, Guan Tianxia ordered the soldiers to be cautious and vigilant. In the back, Yang Huai and the cavalry had already rushed out of the woods. An angry Yang Huai couldn't manage to avoid entering the forest, so he directly ordered the cavalry to enter the forest to continue chasing. The forest in the southern suburbs is actually just an ordinary forest. The trees are not densely packed. Although some delays the marching speed, it does not affect the cavalry marching in the forest.
Listening to the shouting and killing from behind, Guan Tianxia and Li Weihua couldn't help but smile bitterly. Originally, they also expected the enemy to be scrupulous and didn't dare to come in, but they didn't expect Yang Huai to be so courageous. Immediately managing Tianxia and Li Weihua could only order the soldiers to rush forward with all their strength and escape the enemy's pursuit as quickly as possible.
When the Qingqi soldiers had rushed to the central area of the southern suburbs of the woods, suddenly, Li Weihua clearly heard the crisp sound from the front. This sound was clearly the sound of the collision of weapons, and Li Weihua immediately Yelled: "No! There are really ambushes."
The impact was not only heard by Li Weihua, but Guan Tianxia, who was on the side, could also hear clearly. He couldn't help but his face changed. He immediately put a three-pointed two-edged knife on his chest and shouted to the soldiers on the left and right: "All military guards! Ready to fight."
Although the soldiers were exhausted, Guan Tianxia ordered all the soldiers to form a formation behind Guan Tianxia, ready to fight. And at this moment, countless black shadows suddenly flashed between the trees in front. Sure enough, there were ambushes rushing out from behind the trees, and judging from the scale, the number of ambushes was quite large. Under this circumstance, encountering so many Fu troops, no matter how good the world and Li Weihua are, I am afraid it will be irreversible.
"Kill--!" The shouts of killing made the soldiers in charge of Tianxia, Li Weihua and Qingqi like falling into an ice cave. But soon, Guan Tianxia and the others' mood changed again, because they saw a familiar figure in the army.
"General Zhao?" Li Weihua looked at the person in front of him and couldn't help but exclaimed. I saw a warrior wearing silver armor and riding a war horse standing proudly among the fujun in front, by the light of the torch. It was Zhao Yun and Zhao Zhaoyun who was the envoy of Jiangnanxi Road.
But the ambushes rushed out from the woods, but they bypassed the Qingqi and slew towards the cavalry who chased into the woods in the southern suburbs. Although Fu Jun was Fu Jun, it was not Xia Jiajun's Fu Jun, but Song Jun's Fu Jun.
The cavalry is a light cavalry. If it is on the plains, it will have a huge advantage against the infantry. But now it is in the woods. Although the trees are not very dense, they prevent the cavalry from running fast. The previous advantage, Now it has become a constraint. Coupled with the surprise attack by the Quzhou soldiers, the cavalrymen were killed and retreated. Yang Huai was also stunned by the sudden change, and hurriedly ordered his subordinates to retreat.
"Is that person Yang Huai?" Zhao Yun narrowed his eyes and looked at Yang Huai who was commanding the cavalry in front, and asked in a deep voice. He had never seen Yang Huai before, but Yang Lin died in Zhao Yun's hands. Yang Lin and Yang Huai are brothers, they are somewhat similar, and Yang Huai's reputation is not small, so Zhao Yun immediately guessed it. Yang Huai's identity.
Guan Tianxia also relaxed at this moment, and said to Zhao Yun: "Yes, he will be Yang Huai. I will kill him now." After finishing speaking, Guan Tianxia will go ahead. He was just caught by Yang Huai. The chasing was embarrassing, and now taking advantage of this opportunity, he was just looking for revenge against Yang Huai.
Zhao Yun stopped Guan Tianxia, shook his head and said, "Tianxia! Don't be impulsive. The cavalry's combat effectiveness is not bad, and we still accept it when we see it. If we want to force the opponent to fight hard, we will not be able to solve this battle in a short time, the enemy. Reinforcements from China will come soon, so we’d better be careful.”
"Tsk." Zhao Yun's words are very reasonable. Although Guan Tianxia is unwilling, he can only give up the idea of counterattack, but seeing Yang Huai command the cavalry has begun to withdraw from the southern suburbs woods, and retreat towards the rear, in charge of Tianxia's face. With an unwilling expression on the top, he said, "Then we just watched them run like this?"
"Hehe." In response to Guan Tianxia's question, Zhao Yun's face was filled with a smile, but he stretched his hand behind him, and then a soldier handed Zhao Yun's bow and arrow over. After receiving the bow and arrow, Zhao Yun turned his hand and bent the bow and set the arrow, but the whole work was smooth and free. He aimed directly at Yang Huai who had just escaped from the forest in the southern suburbs. In a blink of an eye, the longbow was pulled to the full moon, and then he shot out quickly.
I saw the arrow shot at Yang Huai’s back vest like lightning. Yang Huai was also an expert in archery, and the sharp sound of the air falling in his ears also made him alert, just waiting. The moment Yang Huai turned his head, the arrow had already flown to his chest. Yang Huai yelled in surprise and hurriedly moved to the side, but the arrow still shot through his shoulder, Yang Huai screamed and fell directly off the horse.
"General! General!" "The general was hit by an arrow."
Yang Huai's arrow caused the cavalry to fall into chaos. Several soldiers hurriedly rescued Yang Huai and fled with the remaining cavalry. Looking at the cavalry who fled, Zhao Yun smiled and turned to Guan Tianxia and said, "How about Tianxia? Can you calm down now?"
Guan Tianxia, Li Weihua and others all looked at Zhao Yun with admiration, not to mention that Zhao Yun's spearmanship was well-known in the world, in fact, Zhao Yun's archery achievements were no less than his spearmanship. Living in the north, especially when fighting against golden soldiers who are good at shooting, one cannot do without superb archery. Among the generals of the Southern Army of the Song Army, there are three who can truly be regarded as masters of archery. Shan Hongfei is the first one. Hua Zhonglong is also good at archery, and he is a veteran archery master earlier than Shan Hongfei. And Zhao Yun is also in the top three, although he may not be as good as Shan Hongfei, he definitely surpasses Huazhonglong.
Now that the enemy had retreated, Zhao Yun also shot that Yang Huai arrow, and the anger in Guan Tianxia's heart disappeared a lot. Then he looked at Zhao Yun with a puzzled face and asked: "General! Why did you run here to ambush? Woke up?"
This incident really made Guan Tianxia unable to figure it out. After all, the previous plan was to make Guan Tianxia bring a light cavalry to attack the enemy, while the Quzhou Army was to defend Quzhou City. This is not only because the world can't figure it out, but Li Weihua next to him also looked at Zhao Yun with a puzzled face, looking forward to Zhao Yun's answer.
Zhao Yun smiled, and said to Guan Tianxia: "This is not a place to speak, let's go back to Quzhou City first." Although Yang Huai was repelled, it was because of the small number of cavalry and Zhao Yun. It was knocked back by surprise, but if the enemy's army arrived, it would be troublesome.
Zhao Yun said that, Guan Tianxia and Li Weihua couldn't say anything, they could only do according to Zhao Yun's words. Immediately, Qingqi and the Quzhou Army also regrouped in the southern suburbs of the woods and marched towards Quzhou City. Although there was no enemy chasing, they did not dare to waste time. Soon, the army rushed back to Quzhou City. After making some arrangements, Zhao Yun, Guan Tianxia and Li Weihua also rushed to the mansion in the city. At the entrance of the mansion, Zhang Xiao was smiling and waiting there, as if he had known that Zhao Yun and others would return triumphantly.
Immediately, everyone went directly to the discussion palace in the mansion. The wounded like Li Weihua had just been given a simple bandage by the doctor, and Guan Tianxia also cleaned up the blood stains on his body.
A few people sat in the discussion palace, and they couldn't help the world anymore. They directly asked: "General! Lord Zhang! What is going on? Why does the general take his soldiers and horses to ambush in the woods in the southern suburbs? "After seeing Zhang Xiao's expression, Guan Tianxia knew it subconsciously, and Zhang Xiao also knew the reason for this.
"Haha!" Zhang Xiao smiled at Guan Tianxia's question, but did not directly answer Guan Tianxia's question. Instead, he turned to look at Li Weihua, who was covered with white cloth all over his body, and smiled: "You are General Li Tao. Son, Li Weihua, right?"
Li Weihua was also waiting for Zhao Yun and Zhang Xiao's answers, but he didn't expect Zhang Xiao to ask himself suddenly. He was taken aback, but he quickly recovered and replied: "The final admiral is Li Weihua."
Zhang Xiao nodded and smiled and said to Guan Tianxia: "In fact, this time General Zhao will lead the army to rescue General Guan, but it has something to do with General Li." Then, Zhang Xiao said completely. Again.
It turned out that Zhang Xiao suggested to Zhao Yun to reuse those young soldiers sent from Jiangling, and the one who stayed in Quzhou was Li Weihua. Zhao Yun also agreed to Zhang Xiao's suggestion, and sent someone to find Li Weihua, but he didn't expect that Li Weihua would have secretly followed Qingqi in the battle. The run of Li Weihua caused Zhao Yun and Zhang Xiao to feel a headache. If it were to be replaced by another young warrior, then he would run away. After all, as a soldier, it is also indispensable to kill the enemy on the battlefield.
But Li Weihua is different. He is an adult who has personally explained that he must take good care of him. With the relationship between Li Tao and Wu Heilong, if there is something wrong with Li Weihua, wouldn't it be bad? So Zhao Yun and Zhang Xiao discussed it and decided that Zhao Yun would personally lead the troops to the rescue, hoping that Li Weihua would not be surprised.
As for Zhao Yun's ambush in the southern suburbs, it was Zhao Yun's temporary decision. As the earliest commander of Qingqi, Zhao Yun had a good understanding of Qingqi's combat capabilities. In addition, he is in charge of the world, as long as there are no accidents, the enemy should be able to escape from a surprise attack.
The question is how to withstand the enemy's pursuit. Zhao Yun clearly knew that under Xia Cheng there was a cavalry that was no less than Qingqi in speed and combat effectiveness.
Out of various considerations, Zhao Yun decided to set up an ambush army in the southern suburbs of the woods. When Qingqi escaped here, if there was a chase attack, he would immediately clear Qingqi. Originally, Zhao Yun only wanted to rush out from the southern suburbs of the woods when the chasing soldiers appeared, but he did not expect that Guan Tianxia would cooperate so as to pull the chasing troops to drill in the southern suburbs. This gave Zhao Yun a better fighting effect. .
Hearing what Zhao Yun and Zhang Xiao said, Guan Tianxia and Li Weihua were able to fully understand it. All of this can be said to be a coincidence, and everyone couldn't help but sigh with emotion.
But with emotion, the result of this time is indeed very brilliant. With the two rushes of Qingqi alone, the Xia Jiajun's army was at least killed or injured and lost about 16,000 troops. In addition to the battle in the southern suburbs of the woods, the enemy's cavalry also lost thousands of people. The results of this raid can be said to have completely exceeded previous expectations. I believe that after such a battle, the morale of the Xia's army will inevitably drop. It is not impossible for Zhao Yun and others to defend Quzhou City.
Guan Tianxia also followed Li Weihua's advice, and for the second time assaulted Xia's army, and also told Li Weihua about the beheading of the enemy general Xia Shanyue. He finally smiled and pointed at Li Weihua, and said: "This kid is really not an ordinary character. No wonder your Majesty values him so much! General, I think this kid is good enough to be reusable."
Zhao Yun narrowed his eyes to look at Li Weihua, laughed, and shook his head and said, "Li Weihua, your ability is indeed good. But you defy the military order and go to war without authorization. This is an indisputable fact. On the battlefield, no matter what your ability is. How strong, if you can’t abide by the military order, it can only harm others and yourself.”
Hearing what Zhao Yun said, Li Weihua, who was still a little proud, got up and immediately stood up and bowed to Zhao Yun, saying: "General Zhao is extremely true, the final general is convicted, please be punished."
"Punishment is definitely to be punished." Zhao Yun laughed, but nodded and said: "But well, right now is the critical juncture of the war. I allow you to commit crimes, can you be convinced?"
Zhao Yun said that when he was here, Li Weihua would not understand what Zhao Yun meant, and he was immediately overjoyed. He once again bowed to Zhao Yun and shouted: "The last general takes the order, General Xie."
"Boom, boom, boom!" With the sound of war drums, Xia's army lined up outside the city of Quzhou. Although the Xia's army suffered a lot after yesterday's World War I, for the 100,000 army, it is still not able to change the Xia's army. The advantages.
On the head of the city, looking at the enemy army outside the city, the faces of Zhao Yun and others were not very good. I thought that yesterday’s sneak attack would take a big blow to the morale of the enemy and delay the time of the enemy’s attack. But I didn't expect the enemy to launch an attack so quickly.
Today, the only ones that can be used in the city are the eight thousand Quzhou army and more than two thousand Qingqi, which add up to no more than 10,000 people, but there are a full 80,000 army outside the city. With such a disparity, it is almost impossible to defend Quzhou City.
After taking a deep breath, Zhao Yun shouted in a deep voice: "Everyone! Your lord will entrust Quzhou to us. Now that the enemy is present, we can't live up to the entrustment of the adults. Our army must win this battle. Defend Quzhou City and repel the enemy. ."
"Yes." Guan Tianxia and Li Weihua both held their fists to Zhao Yun and responded in unison. They were indeed a little embarrassed just now. Yesterday they also fought against an army of 100,000, but they did a sneak attack at the time, and they carried out a sneak attack on the official road.
