When Liu Zhengjiang said this, everyone was somewhat relieved. Li Weihua immediately clasped his fists to Liu Zhengjiang and said, "General! Li Weihua's ineffective protection has caused the general to fall into danger. Please deal with me."

"What nonsense." Liu Zhengjiang pouted, almost not amused by Li Weihua's words. He picked up Li Weihua by his collar, and said with a smile: "Kid, remember. We warriors charge the enemy, go deep into danger and take care of you. What a shit. According to your statement, Lao Tzu was dealt with by your majesty a long time ago." Since Liu Zhengjiang became the commander of this party, he has paid great attention to appearance. He is rarely as violent and swearing as he is today. Now he is so bold. It looks like Liu Zhengjiang's true temperament.

Liu Zhengjiang said so, and Li Weihua no longer insisted. At this moment, Shan Shanyue suddenly pointed to Dongfang and shouted, "Look, it's dawn."

Hearing what Liu Zhengjiang said, all the generals looked towards the east. Sure enough, the sun had gradually revealed its rays, and the dark curtain around him was torn away in an instant. Looking at the golden sun, Liu Zhengjiang smiled, pointing to the distance and shouting: "Brothers! Today we will take down Yiyang and knock down the last barrier of Shangrao! Brothers!"

"Kill!" The first person to respond to Liu Zhengjiang was Hua Zhonglong. The fight to kill Huazhonglong just now was not fun, so he immediately carried a single-handed approach and slew his horse towards Yiyang. When Hua Zhonglong walked like this, Shan Shanyue also reacted, and followed him up. The other Song army soldiers, except for a few soldiers who stayed to protect Liu Zhengjiang, were all just one step away from victory. The city far away launched the final attack.

Soon, the Song Army's flag was erected on the top of the city, and Yiyang had been captured by the Song Army. Seeing the flag flying high, Liu Zhengjiang was also a little bit excited, nodded to Li Weihua and shouted: "Weihua, let's go. After a hard night, today we will have a good rest in Yiyang."

Hearing what Liu Zhengjiang said, before Li Weihua could reply, Liu Zhengjiang was already driving towards Yiyang. In the Chaoyang, the soldiers and horses of the Song Army poured into this Yiyang from the city gate. The fall of Yiyang also marked the entire Xinzhou, except for Shangrao, now it is completely owned by the Song Army.

Shangrao Xijun Village is located in the central hinterland of Xinzhou. Since Xia Cheng led the Jiangnan East Road, Shangrao Xijun Village has not experienced any military disturbances, and even the defenders stationed at Shangrao Xijun Village are Xinzhou. The least of all places.

However, just a month ago, the Song Army suddenly sent troops to Xinzhou and captured the surrounding areas of Shangrao. Especially the occupation of Yiyang, this time, the West Army Village in Shangrao became the front line of the confrontation between the two armies. At this time, Xia Cheng also hurriedly transferred the army to the West Army Village in Shangrao. The West Jun Village in Shangrao was also panicked. The people in the villages around the Jun Village moved to other places in order to avoid the war. Fortunately, after the Song Army captured Yiyang, it died down again, and there was no intention of launching an attack on Shangrao Xijunzhai anymore, which made the people still staying around Shangrao Xijunzhai a little relieved.

In fact, it is not just the people who are at ease. As the chief general of the West Army Village in Shangrao, the general of Xia Jiajun Xia Ziteng can be said to be sitting on pins and needles during this time. Although the reinforcements dispatched from Shangrao had already moved into the West Army Village in Shangrao, Xia Ziteng was a veteran who had participated in the public security wars, and he knew the strength of the Song army more clearly. If Song Jun is really determined to go to war with Xia Jiajun, then just with this little reinforcement, I'm afraid it will still be unable to stop Song Jun's iron cavalry.

But as a courtier, you naturally have to do your best to share the worries for adults. Under the command of Xia Ziteng, the defenders stationed at the West Army Village in Shangrao kept changing their defense lines, so as not to let the Song Army know the layout of the West Army Village in Shangrao, and delay the defense as much as possible.

"Go straight to Shangrao?" In Song Jun Village, Shao Yun and others looked at Jiang Shanli in amazement. Zhao Yiming frowned and said: "Will it be too risky? There are still many enemy troops in Xijun Village. If we take Shangrao directly like this, what should we do if the enemy at Xijunzhai breaks the back?"

"No." Jiang Shanli said confidently: "Although there are quite a few enemy troops in the West Army Village, they are only strong enough to defend the West Army Village in Shangrao. Moreover, our ambush is here. Strike the grass and startle the snake in one step. I believe the enemy in Xijunzhai will not dare to act rashly in a short time. We just took advantage of this opportunity to sneak attack on Shangrao."

"Uh." Jiang Shanli made a lot of sense. The entire West Army Village in Shangrao had only a few thousand defenders. With the reinforcements recently deployed, there were only more than 20,000. It is possible for these soldiers and horses to defend the West Army Village in Shangrao, but they have to take the initiative to attack, but they are slightly insufficient. Moreover, Jiang Shanli's plan also made everyone feel a little moved. If they could break through Shangrao and capture Xia Cheng, that would be a great credit, and everyone would have a face for it. Thinking of this, the generals no longer objected.

Immediately the army rested for a while, then turned to go around the trail. The journey to Shangrao is actually not that far, but because the purpose of the Song Army this time was to sneak attack on Shangrao, he had to be cautious along the way. It was not until the next day that he rushed to a village outside Shangrao where the Xia Family Army was stationed.

The Song army’s attack on this village called Wangjiazhuangdi went smoothly. The battle lasted less than half an hour. The village had only nearly three hundred defenders, and 10,000 Songs led by Jiang Shanli and others. Under the attack of the army, there is no ability to resist at all. However, the more than 300 defenders still resisted to the end. After the battle was over, none of the defenders surrendered.

Looking at the corpses all over the city, both Shao Yun and Shao Long couldn't help sighing. Shao Yun shook his head and said: "I didn't expect this small village to have such a strong soldier. If the defending army If the number of people is larger and our number is smaller, we might not be able to break this city so easily."

Shao Long also nodded in agreement, but frowned and said: "Yes! Xia Jiajun is indeed amazing!"

It is a pity that Shao Yun and Shao Long did not expect that a general of Xia's army escaped from this village and reported their situation. Soon, the army that set out from Shangrao encountered this army trying to sneak attack on Shangrao.

"Woo--!" In the sound of the charging horn, the two torrents rushed together. Because the Xia's army had more troops, the Song army fell into a disadvantage as soon as the two armies fought.

Just when the two armies were fighting fiercely, Song Jun was about to be overwhelmed by Xia's army. Suddenly, the sound of a horn came from the west of the battlefield, and the melodious sound of the horn spread throughout the battlefield. At first hearing the sound of the horn, everyone on the battlefield was stunned and stopped fighting involuntarily, turning their heads to look west.

I don’t know when, on the west side of the battlefield, a team of thousands of soldiers and horses suddenly appeared. The soldiers and horses are all composed of infantry in pitch-black armor. With the sound of the horn, they are moving towards this step by step. The edge is approaching. Even in the process of marching, this army of soldiers and horses still maintained a neat phalanx, without the slightest confusion, like a dark cloud, slowly drifting towards this side.

In front of this phalanx, four generals were riding over on their horses. These four generals were not the most conspicuous. The most conspicuous was the military flag erected in the center of the phalanx, on which was simply written two characters: "Heavy Armored Army".

"Heavy Armored Army?" Seeing these two words, Liu Wenyuan, with the best eyesight, suddenly brightened his eyes and shouted: "Heavy Armored Army! It is our heavy armored infantry. It is a potential general who came to support us! We are victorious! Brothers! Kill!"

Following Liu Wenyuan's shout, Zhao Yiming and others also shouted. Immediately afterwards, it drove all the Song Army soldiers. After the soldiers heard that reinforcements were coming to rescue them, their morale that had been somewhat low just picked up again, and the soldiers followed the generals and killed the Xia family army who was still in a daze.

The soldiers and horses that came were heavy-armored infantry. Among the generals in front of the heavy-armored infantry array, three of them are also the generals of the heavy-armored infantry, the coach Zianqian, and the two lieutenants and the general Xie Xiaogui.

Looking at the situation on the battlefield in the distance, Xiaogui Xie's expression sank. He naturally saw that the situation of Song Jun in front of him was not good, and immediately Xie Xiaogui turned his head and said to Zhong Qian: "It's not too late, come forward and help. they."

Zhang Qian kept his usual calm, turned his head and shouted to the two lieutenants: "You two led a thousand people to kill from the left and right sides. The rest of the soldiers followed me, and we went to help the friendly army!"
