Pharmacist Guo breathed a sigh of relief when he saw that his daughter was fine. Hearing that his daughter wanted to lead his team into the battle, Medical Master Guo quickly went up to stop her.
"Sister, you can't go out to fight in the camp now!"
Guo Tiannu breathed a sigh of relief when she saw that her father was safe and sound. The Ever Victorious Army was an army led by Guo Yaoshi. From top to bottom, Guo Yaoshi was the principal and Guo Anguo was the young leader. Only a few of the Dong family's old troops were under the control of her, "Mrs. Dong". If it was Pharmacist Guo who was assassinated by Zhao Kai just now, then don't fight this battle today and just break out and escape.
"Sir, if we don't fight out now, we will be blocked by Zhao Kai's soldiers and horses!" Guo Tiannv said angrily, "Our camp is adjacent to the Yellow River to the west and Yongji Canal to the north. Now the ice The surface has been civilized and it is difficult to pass. Only the east and south gates can be entered and exited. Once the two gates are blocked, we will be trapped... There is not much food in the camp. If we are trapped, we will be trapped by more than ten people at most. We’ll run out of food every day!”
Pharmacist Guo shook his head and said: "We can't rush out. How many cavalry do we have? It's not even eight hundred. Including the Liu family's cavalry, it's only one thousand, three and four. We lost some just now, but now we don't have any." I know if I can pull out 1,200. And there seems to be a lot of cavalry on Zhao Kai's side. According to reports from far away, there seem to be four to five thousand people!"
"How much? Four or five thousand?"
Guo Tiannu was also shocked. Having more cavalry means that they are very capable of fighting in the field and chasing and annihilating fleeing enemies! Moreover, the Song Dynasty had been short of horses for many years, and the number of cavalry had never been sufficient. Zhao Kai actually had four to five thousand cavalry on hand. Does this mean that the number of Song troops in Daming Mansion was much larger than previously known?
"And the man named Zhao has already placed hundreds of carts outside our camp..." Guo Yaoshi said, his face already a little livid, "I guess he wants to set up a cart array." If we are blocked, we can’t get out with hundreds of cavalry!”
"It's so hateful!" Guo Tiannu's silver teeth were almost broken.
This Zhao Kai is not only insidious, but also extremely cunning. He actually wants to block his father and daughter in the camp.
"Sir," Guo Tiannu thought for a while and then said, "Then let's fight out from the east gate!"
Pharmacist Guo shook his head again, "Zhao Kai is plotting against us, so there must be an ambush outside the east gate waiting for us to fall into his trap..."
Before he finished speaking, a burst of intensive drumming came from outside the south gate of the camp, followed by the sound of horse hooves and a series of shouts.
The expressions of both Yaoshi Guo and his daughter changed. They immediately stopped talking, then stood up in the stirrups at the same time, stretching their necks to look outside the south gate.
Outside the south gate, hundreds of armored knights were seen rushing to where Zhao Kai and the hundreds of spear-throwing soldiers were standing. I saw them lined up in countless rows, each holding a carbine, galloping on horseback, shouting loudly, and with unstoppable momentum, they rushed towards the cavalry soldiers of Guo and Liu who were still in a mess outside the camp gate. .
The six or seven hundred soldiers of the Guo and Liu families outside the south gate of the camp have been completely scattered. Huang Wuji's 500 spear-throwing soldiers had just thrown 1,500 short spears, tying up at least two to three hundred soldiers of the Guo and Liu families. The people lying on the ground were all dead, and some thieves who were not dead were shouting. A shrill scream.
Most of the soldiers from the Guo and Liu families who were not injured by the three waves of "flying spear rain" were also frightened by the scene in front of them.
Didn't it mean that the Song army was very cowardly, and their officials and kings were even more cowardly and had no blood at all? Then who was it that just shot the Privy Councilor to death and shot away Mrs. Dong, the ever-victorious goddess?
Also, those galloping over...are they really the Song people's cavalry?
Just when these generals of the Ever Victorious Army and the Nanjing Road Han Army opened their mouths, they didn't know whether to resist, run away, or wait to go to the west. The cold carbine tip of the Song Army's cavalry had already rushed in front of them!
This was really a perfectly organized raid and cavalry attack. The spear throwers and cavalry cooperated flawlessly, and the cavalry attack was timed just right, leaving no time for the opponent to organize resistance or retreat.
The only flaw is that there are too few soldiers brought out by Guo Yaoshi and Liu Yanzong from the camp. They are only about a thousand people, and there are too few heads to harvest...
Han Shizhong, Liu Qi and Xiang Ke rushed to the front. This was deliberately arranged by Zhao Kai. Of course Han Shizhong is the key target for training - his parents chose a great name, Han Shizhong! If you don’t train him, who will you train?
Huang Wuji, Liu Qi, and Xiang Ke are the training targets second only to Han Shizhong. Because the three of them were young, Tong Guan's deepest wish was to ask Zhao Kai to use young generals and local soldiers. There are not many local soldiers now, and the younger generals are the three of them and He Guan's two sons. Of course, they must be given the opportunity to make meritorious deeds.
Huang Wuji had already achieved great success by commanding the spear-throwing troops, and He Ji was preparing to command the armored infantry to attack the south gate of the Jinthief's camp. He Mos was good at using large equipment and was now commanding the artillerymen affiliated with Wei Fuyi's army in assembling spears. Cannon and eight oxen crossbow.
So Han Shizhong, Liu Qi and Xiang Ke each led 200 elite cavalry in this head-cutting charge.
At the same time, Zhao Kai, who had retreated from the front line, stood behind a nail plate truck with four jiyi, Chen Dong, Hu Yin, Deng Su, and Zhang Jun, to supervise the battle. Chen Dong, Hu Yin, Deng Su, and Zhang Jun are now the "reward and punishment agencies" under Zhao Kai. Now one person is holding a book in his hand, and the cover of the book has Zhao Kai's personal inscription. The cover of the notebook in Chen Dong's hand said "promote", the cover of Hu Yin's notebook said "make a fortune", the cover of Deng Su's notebook said "give land", and the cover of Zhang Jun's notebook said " There are eight characters written in it, such as "Military law is like a mountain, and relatives will not be recognized".
The current task of the four of them was to record the merits and demerits of the frontline soldiers on the spot, as well as Zhao Kai's orders to fill in official certificates or documents for removal from office.
Zhao Kai is a bit impatient, and he can also understand the mood of the people below him who are eager to get promoted and make a fortune - he has also been at the bottom and knows these things very well. Everyone is anxious!
So his current rules are "promote immediately", "pay money immediately", "become landlord immediately"! Of course, the master who escaped from the battle would be beheaded immediately!
Therefore, soldiers who can perform meritorious service do not have to worry about the inexplicable disappearance of their due rewards, and cowards who want to run away should not have any illusions, no matter who they are, they will die soon!
Just now, Huang Wuji had been promoted, and all the soldiers of Tiance's first general who followed him in throwing spears also received rewards, and everyone who protected Zhao Kai from the front line also received rewards.
That's really an immediate result!
How could Han Shizhong, Liu Qi and Xiang Ke, as well as the knights selected from their respective armies, not be tempted by their enthusiasm?
Although the three of them all have official status, they are still at the lower level of the Song Dynasty Military Officer Promotion Chart. They are all officials with a big salary. Now that they have the opportunity to be promoted immediately, how can they not fight hard? You have to fight for it anyway, right?
As for the cavalry under their command, most of them are still struggling in the eighth-level rank of captain without official status, and they have to fight for an official status!
Everyone was enthusiastic and wanted to fight. The more than 600 cavalry naturally charged with the momentum of thousands of cavalry. The cavalry with their spears raised amidst the sound of horse hooves and shouts crashed into the already Among the scattered soldiers of Guo Yaoshi and Liu Yanzong!
Seeing the Jinthief infantry and cavalry running desperately towards the south gate of the Jinthief camp being swallowed up by the Song Dynasty cavalry like a torrent, Zhao Kai danced with joy and said loudly to the four reward and punishment machines behind him: "Did you see it? I, the Great Song Dynasty, are invincible...a great victory is imminent!"
