One Piece of Song Dynasty

Just as Sa Lihe was paying close attention to the battlefield situation, shouts of killing suddenly rang out from behind, and soon a scout came over to report: "Commander, there are Song Army cavalry coming from behind and have already rushed into the camp. "

Sa Lihe had a gloomy face when he heard this. Since the Song army was attacking from the rear, it meant that something must have happened at the Hezhong Mansion, and the West Road Governor's Mansion was sure that the army had crossed the Yellow River. It seemed that the outcome of this battle had been decided. Daikin was defeated.

After thinking about it, Sa Lihe made a decisive decision and ordered the last five thousand soldiers around him to resist the Song army behind to buy time. At the same time, he sent messengers to deliver the order to withdraw some of the cavalry first and prepare to escape. The infantry must not be able to escape, so they can only lead The cavalrymen ran away.

Soon after receiving the order from Sa Lihe, some of the cavalry began to retreat. The main generals of the Jin army, such as Xi Buzhu and Tongjian, also received the order to withdraw. They quietly withdrew with their own soldiers, all the while watching from the rear of the Jin army's infantry. Peng Xuan, who had heard all directions paying attention to the battlefield situation, also noticed Salihe's unusual behavior. He knew that something big must have happened, otherwise Salihe would not have ordered the cavalry to withdraw, and also called back Xi Buzhu and Tongqiang. , but Sa Lihe did not notify Peng Xuan, maybe because he was a Han general.

After Peng Xuan saw all these situations, he immediately called his cronies back, and then rode towards Sa Lihe.

When Peng Xuan saw Sa Lihe, he asked: "Commander, has something happened?"

Sa Lihe had no intention of informing the Han and Khitan generals. When he saw Peng Xuan returning with his men to question him, he could only say awkwardly: "Our army has been attacked by a large number of Song troops in the rear. We are now in danger of being attacked from both sides. We must hurry up." Evacuate.”

Peng Xuan nodded and said: "Commander, please retreat quickly." As he said this, Peng Xuan cursed in his heart: The stupid golden man still wants to abandon me. He is really not a fucking thing. Fortunately, I have always been Pay attention to the situation on the battlefield.

Sa Lihe took a deep breath and said, "Since everyone is here, let's retreat and go north. Go to Pingyang Mansion first."

Then Salihe took more than cavalry who had assembled and suddenly walked north to escape the battlefield. Qu Duan had always seen Salihe's actions. When the Jin army withdrew some of its cavalry, Qu Duan knew that it was certain. It was Zhang Xia and the others who took action and immediately ordered their troops to step up their attack.

After seeing Sa Lihe fleeing with his cavalry, Qu Duan quickly ordered a few soldiers to hold tin trumpets and shouted: "Jin Kou, look behind you. Your commander has escaped. Hurry up and put down your weapons and surrender. I will spare you." One life.”

The Jin soldiers who were still fighting suddenly heard this and were stunned. Then they looked back and saw that there were indeed cavalry going north. Some people panicked all of a sudden, while others froze there.

As soon as Sa Lihe withdrew the cavalry, Zhai Jin led the cavalry to break through the Jin army's infantry blockage and enter the battlefield, and cut off the Jin army's commander's flag. Seeing that the commander's flag fell down, he still didn't believe it at first. The golden soldiers also panicked, and the entire battlefield suddenly turned into a mess, and the golden soldiers began to run around.

Seeing this scene, Qu Duan ordered the soldiers to continue shouting and directed the army to surround the defeated troops. Zhai Jin did the same thing when he saw this chaotic scene. As for chasing Sa Lihe, it was not within their scope at all. Chasing the escaped pure cavalry Sa Lihe is not something they can do now.

It only took an hour to gather and capture the broken troops. At this point, the Song-Jin showdown that took place under Jiezhou City was considered over. After final calculation, a total of Jin troops were captured in this battle, including those in Zhongtiao Mountain. The Jin army of people was annihilated, and people were killed and wounded. Sa Lihe took people with him when he fled, and another to people took advantage of the chaos on the battlefield to flee. The Song army was in trouble. After the war, out of the people in the Zhongdu Dudu Mansion, there were still people left to continue fighting with the army, which meant that people were killed or injured. Of course, if the Jin army included the nearly people lost in Hezhong Mansion, it would be even more. too much.

So far, during the entire Jin Army's southern invasion for more than two months, the Jin Army dispatched three armies of nearly troops, lost nearly people, and fled people. The Song Army In the two months before and after, they also lost nearly people. Of course, the Song army achieved greater results. In several major battlefields, they captured prisoners alone, and countless other armors, equipment, and food were seized.

After collecting the prisoners, Qu Duan and Wu Jie finally met each other. The two of them were extremely emotional when they met. They were speechless for a moment. In the end, Qu Duan shamelessly solemnly cupped his fists and said: "General Wu, thank you very much this time." , if General Wu had not arrived in time, it is hard to say whether this war would have been won in the end. Even if we could win, it is estimated that a certain unit would suffer heavy losses and affect the subsequent war."

Wu Jie replied: "This is all a matter of a certain person. Besides, General Qu's arrangement is also appropriate. Even without a certain person, General Qu can still win this battle. The coming of a certain person is just the icing on the cake. General Qu's military achievements are also due to him." ”

Qu Duan said: "I have heard what Wang De said. Without the West Road Governor's Mansion, he would not have been able to capture Hezhong Mansion so quickly. He would still have time to return to Jiezhou to aid. Therefore, the military merits of the West Road Governor's Mansion are real." You deserve the name, it will get dark soon, today I will be a host, and soon I will set up a few tables for a banquet in the camp to entertain the generals of the West Road Governor's Mansion."

Wu Jie joked: "General Qu is not afraid that Sa Lihe will leave and come back to sneak attack on us if we are careless. You must know that when Salihe left, he still had more than cavalry in his hands."

Qu Duan smiled and said: "Haha, I'm really not afraid of him coming. If he really comes, his more than cavalrymen will never leave again. Besides, I'm not bragging. I really want to talk about the night battle gold." The army is really not as good as ours, although I don’t know why, but since the prince took charge of the Song Dynasty, the sergeants can see it at night."

Wu Jie said with emotion: "That's true. Night fighting has now become a weapon for our army to deal with the Jin army."

At night, the entire Jiezhou City was brightly lit. In order to celebrate the victory of the war, Wu Jie and Qu Duan allowed the soldiers who had no special tasks to drink tonight. The soldiers from the two governor's offices sat together to drink and enjoy the food.

The big tent of the Middle Dudu's Mansion was also very lively, and the generals of the two Dudu's Mansions also gathered here. Qu Duanxian raised his glass and said: "Everyone, in order to celebrate the victory of today's war, tonight, after my commander-in-chief and Wu Shuai discussed, we can drink three glasses of wine, and for this first glass of wine we have to honor the prince. Without the prince, our Song Dynasty would not have the great victory today. Long live the Song Dynasty, and long live the prince."

"Long live the Song Dynasty, long live the prince."

After drinking a glass of wine, Qu Duan raised the second glass of wine and continued: "This second glass of wine, I would like to pay homage to Commander Wu and the soldiers of the West Road Governor's Mansion. Without their timely support, there would not be what we are today." Big win.”

Wu Jie stood up and raised his wine glass and said, "No, no, General Qu deserves the award. This is the credit of our two families. Without anyone, there would not be today's great victory."

Qu Duan nodded and said: "Okay, I won't say much more, let's drink this glass of wine."
