Chapter 384
In fact, there were only two generals in Chai Lin's army who didn't need money. One, Lu Da, had donated all his military salary to help poor farmers.Now that Lu Da wants money, and has married a wife, he can't do without money if he takes care of his family.Only Dian Zhengnan doesn't need military pay, and all the money he receives goes to Chai Lin, and he doesn't spend a penny.If you want to say that he doesn't care about money, he just cares about his land. After defeating an enemy general, he has to pick up the horse and take away the weapon.

When Dian Zhengnan came back, Niu Gao praised him with a thumbs up, and said, "Sure, why don't you bring his bag here."

"That kid's head is not strong, it bleeds everywhere, and it was buried in the bag." Dian Zhengnan said.

Kou Zhenyuan sees that the situation is not good, and if he fights again, it will be over, and the morale will be hit too much.

"Chai Zongbing, let's fight another day, it's getting late."

Chai Lin said: "General Kou, if I were you, I would withdraw my troops early. If I spend nothing here, it will only make Jin Guo a big profit. Caogu has also fought and made money. It is time to go back quickly, otherwise The soldiers from the Daming Mansion will come soon and you will be dead."

Kou Zhenyuan sneered and said, "Only you, the Cangzhou Army, can fight the entire Great Song Dynasty. The other troops are no more than chickens and dogs."

The two sides stopped their troops and returned to their camps.

In Gaoyang City, Lin Chong asked, "Brother, will the Liao soldiers really retreat?"

"Yes, even if Kou Zhenyuan doesn't want to retreat, Wu Yanguang will let him retreat. Our Cangzhou army has performed too well. The firecrackers and artillery are far beyond the understanding of these Liao people. If we continue to fight, there will only be one result. , Then the whole army will be wiped out. As soon as the Liao soldiers retreated, we took the opportunity to take down the Hejian Mansion, relieve the refugees, and rebuild after the war." Chailin said.

Chai Qiang patted his bald head and asked, "Then why don't we take this opportunity to wipe out all the Liao soldiers, and we will have fewer enemies in the future."

Chai Lin smiled and said, "Which one is stronger, the Kingdom of Jin, the Kingdom of Liao, or the Kingdom of Song?"

"How do I know this?" Chai Qiang laughed.

Sun An said: "Currently, the Jin Kingdom has sprung up suddenly, and its combat power is very powerful. It has eaten away half of the land of the Liao Kingdom in a few years. Although the Liao Kingdom is at the end of the crossbow, it has more cavalry and fierce infantry, and its combat power is stronger than that of the Song Dynasty."

"That's right, the [-] elite soldiers from the Liao Kingdom who came to fight Caogu are one of the few family assets. If they are all destroyed in the Song Dynasty, then the Liao Kingdom will probably perish. Therefore, the Liao soldiers will definitely retreat, and they will retreat. We are very fast. Although our equipment is excellent, we are all recruits who have not been tested by the flames of war. If we want to grow up, it will take two years at the fastest. It's a fierce golden soldier," Chai Lin explained.

The generals were convinced, and Chai Lin said: "Soldiers need elites, but also numbers. We need [-] elite soldiers, and heavy cavalry is the most important thing. Two heavy cavalry battalions need at least [-] heavy cavalry."

Lin Chong was overjoyed: "There are enough horses for this battle."

Sun An is also very happy, there is nothing more gratifying than being valued.With 6000 heavy cavalry, there must be about [-] auxiliary soldiers, and the entire battalion must have at least [-] people.

"Reward the three armies tonight, in order to rush to Hejian Mansion early in the morning." Chai Lin ordered.

That night, the Huotou army made stewed horse meat with potatoes. This kind of high-calorie and crude fiber food made some soldiers have nosebleeds.But everyone still likes to eat.

But the brothers in the cavalry battalion feel a little distressed. Although they are the horses of the Liao soldiers who were killed, they always feel a little pity.

In the early morning of the next day, there was a ding-ding-dong-dong sound of drums and curling smoke from the Liao army camp in the west of Gaoyang City.This is the trick of the enemy soldiers hanging sheep and beating drums to deceive others, but not the Cangzhou army.

The scouts of the Cangzhou Army were equipped with binoculars eight times the diameter of 32 mm. Although they were just ordinary binoculars, they could clearly see the retreat of the Liao soldiers at night with the help of a weak light source.

Chai Lin led the army to take over an empty camp, and there was nothing of value, only dozens of broken tents that were still usable.

"Lin Chong, Sun An." Chai Lin ordered.

"Yes, yes." The two clasped their fists together.

"Pang Wanchun has already ambushed the Liao soldiers in front, and the two followed closely to gather the strong men who were captured by the Liao soldiers. These people's homes have been destroyed by the Liao people, and their own people still treat them as traitors. If they are not gathered in time, They are likely to go up the mountain to become bandits," Chailin said.

"Yes."

Two battalions of heavy cavalry set off.

The Liao soldiers left in the middle of the night, and went out for more than 50 miles at dawn.

The tens of thousands of people who were captured walked with the infantry, pulling carts and carrying loads, and all they took were the property and soft goods looted along the road.

A group of people went to get up early in the middle of the night, hungry and uncomfortable. The Liao soldiers could eat jerky while walking, but the poor minzhuang had nothing to eat. If they walked a little slower, the whips would slap their faces.

In the col a few miles away, Pang Wanchun was mobilizing before the war.

"Our next task is to rescue the strong men who were robbed by the Liao soldiers. These strong men are from Hejian Prefecture, Jizhou Prefecture, and Shenzhou Prefecture. I went to the Liao Kingdom, and when I turn back, I will be a Liao soldier to attack us." Pang Wanchun said.

All the troops said one after another: "Yes. Save the compatriots."

"Okay, let's go. Follow the command in all actions, and those who don't obey the military order will be killed."

"Yes."

After repeated fierce battles, more than 100 cavalry were injured and went back to recuperate. Now there are only [-] light cavalry left.Although the number of people has decreased, the combat power has increased.

The light cavalry ran fast, and rushed over a few miles in minutes.The infantry of the Liao Army at the end of the team reacted slowly, and when Pang Wanchun led the cavalry over, the Liao soldiers were in a mess.

The cavalry and archery tactics are different from the traditional light cavalry combat. There is no need to rush into the enemy's line, and the arrows are released from a distance of about [-] meters.

The crowd shouted: "Folks, run, folks, run."

The captured strong men broke out their last efforts. Whoever is willing to be captured and go to the Liao Kingdom to work as an ox or a horse, many of them will die of exhaustion. Now that someone comes to meet them, they will naturally run back.

More than ten thousand strong men got into a mess, swung sticks, sticks, or grabbed the weapons of the Liao soldiers around them, started fighting, and ran back after fighting.

Kou Zhenyuan heard the commotion behind and asked, "What's going on?"

"More than [-] light cavalry from the Cangzhou Army attacked our rear, and the cavalry has already gone over to meet them," said the lieutenant general.

When the light cavalry of the Liao army returned to rescue them, the strong men had almost run away. About six to seven thousand people escaped smoothly, and more than a thousand were killed by the Liao soldiers.

"The enemy cavalry is coming up." A captain reminded Pang Wanchun.

Pang Wanchun said: "Don't worry, our heavy cavalry should be here soon."

Lin Chong and Sun An are still very stable.

Huh, huh, the ox horn blows low and shockingly, this is the horn of the heavy cavalry.

The east was full of dust, and heavy cavalry with armored men and horses came up.The colorful flags are flying, and there are two general flags, one with the word Lin and the other with the word Sun.

Pang Wanchun smiled and said: "The heavy cavalry has arrived, ignore the enemy light cavalry, and quickly retreat after the strong men."

"Yes."

The infantrymen of the Liao Kingdom were also afraid. This group of light cavalry was too ruthless, and their arrows were so accurate that they shot a lot of people, causing more than 1000 infantry casualties.

It was too late when the light cavalry from the Liao Kingdom came up, and the heavy cavalry from the Cangzhou Army came up. When they saw Lin written on the general flag, they knew that it was Lin Chong. The strong man retreated slowly.
