The great victory at Xiangyang City once again made the troops of the Yue Family Army powerful, and also made their morale even more prosperous. At this time, it seemed that no one could defeat the Yue Family Army.
And being repulsed...no, the defeated Li Cheng gathered his troops and headed towards Dengzhou again. This time he became extremely honest. He did not dare to rely on his subordinates anymore. There were many soldiers and horses fighting Yue Fei to death.
He chose Jin Wushu's style of play and defended to the end!
"Yue Fei has come a long way, with few troops and horses and insufficient food and supplies, and the baggage has just been scraped together.
They came so suddenly because they wanted to see me wait for the unstable foothold in the Jianghuai and Xianghan areas to quickly regain this place, and then gather the food and the people here. They are following the path of supporting war with war.
All he had to do was to strengthen the walls and clear the country, and then put up heavy defenses in Dengzhou to defend to the death. When Yue Fei ran out of food and grass, he lost his sharpness.
The war is over! "
Although Jin Wushu's abilities were more or less inferior to those of Yue Fei, Han Shizhong, Liu Qi, and the Wu brothers, after all, he had really gotten to know the edge of a famous general.
He could clearly see the pros and cons of both the enemy and ourselves.
Now after another major defeat, Li Cheng also knew that if he attacked, he might not be Yue Fei's opponent. It was really impossible to regain his face.
The Jin general was unable to command and could only retreat to Dengzhou. At the same time, the Jin reinforcements finally arrived. Jin general Liu Hebojin led his troops to join Li Cheng and gathered near Dengzhou to build a Trench trenches were dug in the village to prevent the Yue army from moving north.
After Yue Fei received the news, he immediately made appropriate countermeasures.
"Now that the opponent's wall is strong and the country is clear, we can't just sit back and wait for death. You must be prepared for a fight to the death!"
Under this situation, the Yuejia Army had no way to use tactics and calculations, because once their morale was exhausted in a stalemate, the six counties of Han and Xiang would really have nothing to do with them.
Only by fighting to the death and killing the opponent can there be a chance of survival.
"Please give the order, General!" Tens of thousands of troops roared in unison without the slightest fear.
Seeing this, Yue Fei knew that the morale of the army was now available, so he said nothing more, took out the sword from his waist, and directly began to distribute troops and horses.
"Now the army is divided into two groups, the general will obey your orders!"
"Roar!"
"Wang Gui, Niu Gao, Dong Xian, Li Dao, Hu Cheng, Pang Rong, Liang Xing, Hao Yu!"
"The general is here!" Eight people stood up at the same time and agreed in unison.
Among the rest, Wang Guinai was Yue Fei's loyal confidant. The others were either demoted generals or later followers. Only Hao Yu was the latest general to join the Song Dynasty.
It turned out that he was the commander of Hunan's pacification department, and sent Wang Xie from Jingnan to conquer Dongting Lake. He was defeated repeatedly, but in the end he had some military success under the leadership of Yue Fei, because the authority now happened to belong to Yue Fei's command.
So he took advantage of the situation and merged into the Yue Family Army.
"You, with Wang Gui as the leader, are advancing from Guanghua Road. Don't stop along the way. Charge with all your strength. Attack any obstacles you encounter. No stopping is allowed!"
"The last general takes command!"
"Zhang Xian, Wang Jing, Yao Zheng, Li Shan, Kou Cheng, Xu Qing, Fu Qing, Yang Qin!"
"The general is here!" The same eight people stood up, waiting for their orders.
"General Zhang Xian, advance from Henglin Road to the same target of Dengzhou. Cover and kill all the way there. No delay is allowed!"
"The last general takes command!"
"Wang Wan, Han Chang, Yang Zaixing!"
"The final general is here." The last three people were Yue Fei's close confidants.
"The three of you will be stationed in Xiangyang Prefecture with me. They will go to Dengzhou to fight. This Jin man will definitely attack the grain road. You must ensure the safety of the grain transportation and make no mistakes!
After all the enemies in front are cleared, the three of you will join me and attack Dengzhou! "
"The last general takes command!"
Yue Fei tried his best in this battle, and almost all the generals of the Yue Family Army were dispatched.
As for people like Hu Qing, Meng Bangjie, Zhao Yun, Wang Jun, Li Xing and others are all deputy generals of each army, they naturally follow the main general.
On July 15th, Wang Gui and Zhang Xian experienced fighting and ups and downs all the way, and finally they were about to meet again thirty miles away from Dengzhou. But now, the only thing standing in front of them was the defense line of Li Cheng and the Najin people.
This is a crucial battle.
"Commanders, follow me to kill the enemy!"
"Fight to the death and never retreat, only death!"
Wang Gui and Zhang Xian issued orders almost at the same time, which fully illustrates the tacit understanding between them that they have been fighting side by side all year round.
After the soldiers roared loudly, they immediately launched a general attack on the defense line stationed by the Jin generals Liu Hebojin, Li Cheng and others.
It's just that even if they didn't stop at all along the way, Dengzhou's defense was now ready. Liu Hebo Jin's generals Yang Desheng, Gao Zhong and others were all on the front line.
The commanding army relies on countless anti-horse antlers, and defends without retreating under the cover of throwing lathes, crossbows and other various equipment.
The war had just begun and entered a fierce battle. Wang Gui personally took the lead in the charge. However, although Wang Gui was cautious and prudent, he was also loyal to Yue Fei.
But after all, he is not a fierce general of the Yue family army, and he is not as brave as Zhang Xianyang Zaixing.
Under this kind of attack, in order to live up to Yue Fei's expectations, he directly chose to fight the enemy to the death, but the price was that he was shot several times and almost died.
Seeing the blood flowing all over his body, especially the stab wound on his left leg, made it difficult for him to move.
At this time, Wang Gui only felt unbearable pain, but he did not flinch at all.
"Get the rope!"
There was a roar on the battlefield, and no rope was found for him, but in the end, the personal guards tore off a long strip of cloth for him, and tied him and the horse tightly together under Wang Gui's order.
After fixing himself, Wang Gui let out another roar and charged towards the enemy's line of defense. Arrows flew towards him, dodging his vital points before hitting him.
Even a huge boulder directly scratched his face, almost knocking his head off. However, even if he escaped death by chance, a piece of skin and flesh on Wang Gui's face had been shaved off, and the blood dripping from his face was particularly ferocious.
"Kill it, keep killing it, don't stop!"
Liang Xing's lieutenant and his sworn brother Li Jin rushed forward and was shot dead and turned into a hedgehog-like being.
The leader of the Yue Family Army, Hu Cheng, took the lead in rushing into the trench, and after killing several people in a row, opened a hole for the Yue Family Army. However, before Pang Rong and others behind him could rush in, the Jin general Liu Hebojin personally He led people and rushed over.
Under the siege of hundreds of people, Hu Cheng finally failed to hold on until the arrival of reinforcements. Unfortunately, Hu Cheng was once the commander-in-chief of one side and was originally the commander-in-chief of the Jiankang Left-behind Division.
He had just returned to the imperial court and was cut into pieces before he could make any achievements.
At the same time, Zhang Xian and others on the other side also started taking action, and the brutality of the fight was no less fierce than that of Wang Gui.
Yao Zheng and Wang Jing, two veteran-level generals of the Yue family army, were directly seriously injured when they came up, but as a price they still opened a gap.
But just like Hu Cheng, this gap was blocked by Li Cheng and his men after opening it with his front legs.
The two sides continued to fight around the defense line, charging and repelling again and again. At the same time, as several fierce generals of the Yue Family Army, Zhang Xian Niugao, Dong Xian, Xu Qing and even Yue Yun were at the forefront.
Everyone was covered in blood, but even so, they still couldn't break through Dengzhou's defense line.
Of course, Zhang Xian Wanggui suffered heavy losses here, and the Jin people were even more unbearable than them. Tens of thousands of enemy troops were directly beaten horribly. I don't know how many Jin people died here.
The generals under his command suffered heavy casualties. After leading his men to kill Hu Cheng, the general Liu Hebojin ran into the unknown young general Yue Yun.
When Liu He and Bo Jin saw that Yue Yun was still childish and didn't have any armor on, he thought he was just an ordinary elementary school student. He couldn't help but feel a little contempt in his heart. As a result, he was seriously injured before he was even three years old.
Li Cheng on the other side was also wounded by Zhang Xian's men, but he was more cunning. When he saw something was wrong, he immediately withdrew from the battlefield on the pretext of covering Liu He Jin's retreat.
In this case, the Jin people were led by generals Yang Desheng and Gao Zhong, but Yang Desheng was also found by Dong Xian and Niu Gao. With the two men joining forces, Jin Wushu had to crawl back even if he came in person, let alone Said little Yang Desheng.
If the Jin man hadn't been so powerful and brave, he would have died directly in the hands of these two men, but even so, he retreated after being wounded.
Now Yang Desheng has retreated to the rear to command, with only Gao Zhong in the front supporting him. Although the Yue Family Army's offensive is very fierce, the situation has now reached this point.
The Jin people's eyes were also red with blood. After a full day of fighting, both sides looked miserable. The Jin people's losses were much greater than those of the Yue family army.
Unfortunately, the defense line is still there.
Not to mention Dengzhou City, even the first line of defense in Dengzhou was holding them back. It has to be said that this situation made Zhang Xian and Wang Gui feel once again that the Jin people were not that good. inability.
"Have a good meal and fight at night!"
After a short period of repair, Zhang Xian chose the most unfeasible but necessary method, fighting at night.
Under the night, it is difficult to control the battlefield with only torches. This all depends on the bravery of both sides. Even the possibility of trampling and accidental injury is extremely high.
But Zhang Xian has no choice. This is the best way for now.
During the night battle, the losses of the Yuejia Army doubled, but the losses of the Jin people also doubled. Liu Yu and Li Cheng continued to mobilize reinforcements here, using their lives to fight against the strength of the Yuejia Army.
The corpses slowly accumulated, and the smell of blood was so strong that it made people feel sick even when they breathed.
On the other side, Wang Gui had just bandaged his wound. Hearing the sounds of fighting in the distance, he pushed away the medical officer who kept urging him to be cautious and not to move.
"All soldiers, follow me and fight, kill!"
