Chapter 288 Cavalry
"Everyone obeys the order, follow me to kill the enemy and rush!" Zheng Tu shouted to the sky and rushed towards the enemy first.
"kill!"
"kill!"
The last five hundred people who were originally reserved for support were also put on the battlefield. The soldiers of the Loyal and Brave Army who had retreated steadily exploded their last courage and counterattacked the enemy, constantly interspersing the opponent's formation, disrupting their deployment.
"General, the enemy is already struggling to death, and there is no need to worry." Huang Minglu looked at the opponent's attack and was unmoved at all. This last wave of attack seemed fierce, but once he exhaled, he could no longer raise it and became a lamb to be slaughtered.
"Not bad!" Qian Renjun gently twisted his beard. The power that exploded now was the force retained in the soldiers' subconscious mind. This was the last means to protect themselves. Once exhausted, there would be no more force to fight in a short period of time.
"General, we should move!" Huang Minglu bent down and reached out to greet him. The war on the south bank was settled, and it was not appropriate for them to continue in Jiangxinzhou. It should be crossing the bridge and welcoming the victory with the soldiers.
"Well, it's right. I can also give an explanation to the court for this battle." Qian Renjun was overjoyed. Although he suffered heavy losses, he won after all.
In this battle, Qian Renjun invested tens of thousands of elite soldiers. Most of them were elite soldiers of his military army, and a small number of them were imperial soldiers sent by the King of Yue to resist the loyal and brave army.
Qian Renjun had previously felt that these imperial guards always felt supervised and it was extremely inconvenient to do things, but in today's battle, the imperial guards' performance was indeed extraordinary.
Qian Renjun was wearing wind at his feet and walked towards the floating bridge under the escort of his personal soldiers.
"Old guy, it's time for us to fight on the battlefield again." Sun Yu put down his telescope. The enemy's elite were basically crossing the river, and it was time to close the net. The fire sniffed, and the horse's hooves kept stomping on the ground. It couldn't wait.
As early as two quarters of an hour ago, the cavalry and the personal barracks were all in place. More than 3,000 cavalrymen were like beasts out of the cage, waiting to tear the opponent apart.
Sun Yu waited patiently. After all, the cavalry could not go up the floating bridge. He wanted to let all the elite troops of the other party cross the river as much as possible and then eat it in one bite.
Sun Yu, who originally planned to only take over the south bank of the Minjiang River, has now been aroused. According to the news, there are more than 20,000 Zhangwu troops near Fuzhou City on the north bank of the Minjiang River, and now there are more than 10,000 crossing the river, and they are basically elite soldiers with armor. If this batch is eaten, then Fuzhou City's defense will inevitably be extremely empty. If there is a chance, of course, you must follow the trend.
"Since the establishment of our cavalry battalion, we have never encountered such a large-scale battle. This battle is the moment to test you."
"As the first cavalry of the Tang Dynasty, whether it deserves its reputation is today."
"Let the blood of the enemy be forged to the reputation of my Iron Cavalry."
"Everyone, follow me to kill the enemy and rush!"
As soon as Sun Yu pulled the reins, the fire jumped hard, like fire falling from the sky, rolling towards the riverside. More than three thousand cavalrymen rushed together, following Sun Yu, like the sharpest sharp knife, ready to break the enemy's attack and two blows.
"Marquis Zhenhai!"
"Marquis Zhenhai!"
......
The soldiers of the Loyal and Brave Army, who were originally about to be discouraged, felt the shock and turned their heads to look, and suddenly became excited. The cavalry of this size was the only one of the Loyal and Brave Army. Especially the leading red tall war horse, one of the generals holding horse lances, was the governor of the Loyal and Brave Army.
, Zhenhai Hou Sun Yu.
The main general personally fought and brought invincible cavalry. He immediately gave the soldiers who were about to be depressed and continued to sacrifice his life to fight.
As for the soldiers of the Zhangwu Army, they were completely on the contrary and began to become panic. When did they deal with real cavalry in Yue State? Looking at the cavalry rolling in, they were all armored and spears shining, and even the courage to resist was lost.
Because the soldiers on both sides were mixed together, Sun Yu directly gave up the cavalry crossbow in this battle.
The cavalry were getting closer and closer, and more than 3,000 cavalrymen rode their horses wildly, and their huge power hit the hearts of every soldier in Zhangwu. They ignored the orders from above and began to dodge, and some even wanted to return to the floating bridge, but the Naihe Bridge was already crowded and could not be reached at all.
Sun Yu lifted and overwhelmed a man with a spear, and continued to attack without stopping. The same was true for the cavalry behind him, like a strong wind blowing across the river, leaving behind large open spaces and corpses that could not dodge.
Sun Yu took the cavalry and plunged into the opponent's camp again, continued fighting, ready to quickly defeat the opponent's will and prevent the opponent from forming a formation to defend.
"Evil dog, take your personal military camp to guard the floating bridge." Sun Yu explained, afraid that they would escape through the floating bridge.
The evil dog received the order and rushed directly toward the pontoon bridge with his cavalry, rushing back and forth between the pontoon bridges. Anyone who approached would directly kill him with a blow.
The soldiers on the bridge began to retreat one after another. They did not dare to retreat before they received the order to retreat, and immediately squeezed into a group.
Qian Renjun, who was originally proud of the wind under her feet, felt a cramped heart, covered her chest with her hands and fell down.
"General, General! Hurry up, help General back." Huang Minglu saw that something was wrong, so he called his personal soldiers to support him and retreated to Jiangxinzhou first.
"Old Huang, hurry up, withdraw your troops and destroy the bridge!" Qian Renjun said with all his strength. If he doesn't retreat, he will definitely attack Fuzhou City directly along the ready-made floating bridge.
At this point, Qian Renjun knew in his heart that the south bank of the Minjiang River was out of reach. What he could do now was to protect Fuzhou City as much as possible. Once Fuzhou City fell into the hands of the other party, he would be punished for his death. After he died, he would go underground and had no face to face the previous king.
"General, stop talking, it's important to save our lives." Huang Minglu also knew that this battle was defeated, but Qian Renjun could not die, and he would have to take charge of the overall situation in Fuzhou City later.
The sound of gold sounded, and the soldiers of the Zhangwu army on the entire floating bridge quickly retreated. The personal soldiers trotted back to Jiangxinzhou with Qian Renjun on their backs, and immediately brought them into the carriage and headed towards Fuzhou City.
Huang Minglu stayed to take charge of the overall situation, gathered all the remaining generals, and announced Qian Renjun's order.
On the south bank of the Minjiang River, Sun Yu led the cavalry to traverse, disrupting the opponent's formation again and again, tearing the opponent's defense apart, and the sentiment of despair spread among the Zhangwu Army soldiers.
"The pontoon bridge caught fire"
A soldier from Zhangwu Army shouted, heart-wrenchingly filled with despair.
In the center of the Minjiang River, a large ship in the pontoon bridge is burning, not only the ship, but also the hope of their escape.
A moment later, another pontoon bridge also caught fire, completely destroying their hopes.
"Surrender, the Lord has given up on you, your resistance is meaningless!"
Sun Yu pulled the reins and bribed the liberated
The fire stopped, and now these Zhangwu soldiers have become rootless duckweeds. It is meaningless to continue fighting. You might as well incorporate them and add them to each regiment. The third regiment and the fourth regiment are extremely depleted in this battle.
All the cavalry stopped one after another, and the nostrils of the war horses were steaming, and the consumption of the rush to kill them was also extremely high.
"Dingdang~" A small team leader threw the long sword to the ground.
"Brothers, we have no way out, let's surrender." The team leader said to his brothers. They have become abandoned children, so why bother to seek death?
The soldiers of the Zhangwu Army, who were already desperate, once someone took the lead, they would abandon their weapons. As for the senior generals, they wanted to take advantage of the chaos, but were stared at by the cavalry. How could they escape with their legs? After thinking about it over and over again, they finally put down their weapons and surrendered.
The soldiers of the Loyal and Brave Army had long been aware of the incorporation of prisoners. They came forward and confiscated all the weapons, then randomly placed them, and then identified their identities and treated them differently.
Sun Yu looked at the burned floating bridge in front of him and said in his heart that it was a pity that if he had enough troops, he would have followed him and killed him directly, which would have been able to further expand the results of the battle. Now he could only watch the opponent retreat calmly and deploy defenses on the other side.
"Han Zaiwu obeyed the order!" Sun Yu began to order, first taking down all the south bank of the Minjiang River and step by step.
"I'm humble!" Han Zaiwu knelt on one knee, excited. At this point, he had a chance of winning. As long as he didn't make any mistakes, he could get the rank of general when he was rewarded in terms of merit.
"Tell your troops westward immediately and patrol along the river. No one will be allowed to cross the river with one soldier."
"As for the order!"
Han Zaiwu received the order and immediately left with more than a thousand cavalry. This matter was just a matter of time. As long as someone dared to attack, he would immediately gather and attack him.
"Gao Huichang obeys the order!"
"I'm in a humble position!"
Gao Huichang was also very excited and knelt on one knee.
"Thank troops immediately, cross Dazhangxi to the east, patrol along the river, and do not let anyone cross the river." Now, as long as you keep a close eye on the Minjiang River, you will not allow any reinforcements from the other side and take down several cities on the south bank, it is a matter of time.
"As for the order!"
Gao Huichang immediately led his troops eastward, first passing Dazhang River, and then continuing to go east. Now, the wooden bridge that can be accessed on Dazhang River has not been completed, so he can only camp by the stream for one night.
"Zheng Tu, first select some personnel to reorganize them, fill up the third regiment, and send troops to Minqing County as soon as possible."
This Minqing County is the county town that was extorted last time by the cavalry battalion. Now there are more than a thousand combat powers in the county. There are more than a thousand soldiers outside the city, with a total force of more than three thousand.
Sun Yu did not expect to take this county with the third regiment alone, so that they could go there to block them and prevent them from interfering with the cavalry's actions.
When I freed up my hands, I led my troops to attack, and I also kept a backup plan to surprise the other party.
"As for the Fourth Regiment, you will be the leader first, and the reorganization and replenishment of people will follow me eastward." Sun Yu pointed to a captain of the Fourth Regiment and said. This person was Bai Meng, Bai Yong's cousin, and his martial arts value was three points stronger than Bai Yong's. He was the most capable of fighting under Bai Yong. If he was temporarily in charge, he could also convince the public.
"Don't worry, Marquis, let's do it now."
