The more than 20,000 cavalry sent by Ye Tianlong soon caught up with Fang Maang and the others. In order to buy more time to escape, Fang Maang sent out all the more than 3,000 light cavalry under his command, and led them by Feilong General Liu Yun. It is led by four generals: Flying Tiger General Zhang Wei, Flying Bear General Xu Fang and Feishan General Zhen Cheng.
However, Ye Tianlong sent more fierce generals. Among them, Jade Kirin Lu Junyi once again took the lead. He rushed to the front with a two-foot steel gun and killed Feishan General Zhen Cheng with one shot.
Then Dong Ping, the two-gun general, arrived quickly. With both guns in his hands, he completely suppressed the flying dragon general Liu Yun in two or three moves.
Bing Wei Chi Sun Li and Jiu Wenlong Shi Jin arrived just a few seconds behind Dong Ping, and each also entangled the remaining Flying Tiger General Zhang Wei and Flying Bear General Xu Fang.
The vanguard Suo Chao deliberately detoured this time, waiting until the Flying Bear General Xu Fang was tightly entangled by Shi Jin who was wielding a three-pointed two-edged sword, and then suddenly rushed out and chopped off his head with an axe. down.
At this time, Xu Ning, the golden gunner, and Hu Yanzhuo, the double whip, also arrived one after another. Xu Ning took advantage of the flying dragon general Liu Yun to be entangled with Dong Ping with his two spears, and stabbed Liu Yun in the waist with a hook and sickle spear in his hand, and then Shoot him off his horse.
The pair of whips Hu Yanzhuo also smashed the head of Flying Tiger General Zhang Wei with one whip.
After neatly wiping out these four enemy generals, Jade Unicorn Lu Junyi led this group of fierce generals to continue to charge forward. How could the enemy's ordinary light cavalry stop these murderous stars? They were soon defeated. Killed to pieces.
The ordinary cavalry of the Qinglong Empire in the rear had almost no chance to take action, but fortunately, apart from these cavalry, the enemy army still had more than 50,000 infantry left! So these cavalrymen hurriedly increased their horse speed and followed the group of fierce generals in front to continue to kill the fleeing enemy infantry.
When Fang Maung saw that the more than 3,000 cavalry sent out were defeated so quickly, and all four generals were killed, he finally felt panicked, knowing that he might not be able to escape death today.
However, this also aroused the ferocity of this guy, so he simply stopped running and asked his more than 50,000 infantrymen to form a formation. He also took Fang Tian's painted halberd in his hand, preparing to fight the enemy to the death.
Speaking of which, these soldiers under Fang Maang can be considered the elite of Fang La's army. Among them are not only the more than 3,000 cavalry, but also a heavy infantry equipped with iron armor. There are also more than a thousand elite archers. The remaining infantrymen all looked quite elite. They were all wearing leather armor and holding long spears, and the formation was quite strict.
If it were the original Liangshan Army that came to conquer Fang La's army, then they might really suffer a big loss facing these elites under Fang Maang.
But now they encountered the Qinglong Empire's army. At this time, Ye Tianlong saw that the enemy's gun array was quite strict, so he asked his cavalry to withdraw, and instead sent out more than 7,000 elite heavy infantry under his command. Then dozens of infantry generals including Wu Song, Lu Zhishen and Li Kui led the charge towards the enemy formation. There are also a large number of ordinary infantry following in the rear. Most of these ordinary infantry are equipped with winch heavy crossbows and will work with the archers to provide long-range fire support to the heavy infantry in front.
When Fang Maung saw that the enemy had sent out so many heavy-armed infantry, he quickly sent out his 800 heavy-armed infantry. At the same time, he asked his archers to fire arrows at the same time, hoping to get as many as possible before the enemy infantry approached. Kill some enemy troops.
It's a pity that those arrows fell on the steel plate armor and Mingguang armor equipped by the soldiers of the Qinglong Empire, and they were unable to break through the defense. On the contrary, a large number of arrows and crossbow bolts fired by the Qinglong Empire were constantly killing and injuring Fang La's soldiers.
After the heavy infantry led by Wu Song and Lu Zhishen formally engaged the enemy's infantry, the situation became even more devastating. They quickly penetrated the large formation of Fangla Army. The more than 800 heavy infantry of Fangla Army, In fact, the equipment is just some iron armor. In front of guys like Wu Song and Lu Zhishen who are born with supernatural powers, these iron armors are almost like paper. Especially Black Tornado Li Kui, this guy also has brute strength, although Compared with Wu Song and Lu Zhishen, his martial arts skills are much inferior, but his lethality is very high. He keeps swinging two axes in his hands. The enemy infantry in front of him are all using one axe, and no one can pass under his hands. The second move.
Ye Tianlong looked at Li Kui's amazing efficiency in clearing the enemy's soldiers from behind, and couldn't help but nodded with satisfaction. He thought that as long as Song Jiang didn't die, the Black Tornado Li Kui, the killer star, would not lose control, and it could be used as a battlefield in the future. A strong player makes good use of it.
With such a ferocious general who looks like a humanoid beast charging into the battle, many enemy troops may be frightened into surrendering, which is a win for Ye Tianlong. After all, the battle he is fighting now is a civil war, and he is facing all Han compatriots. It is always a good thing to have fewer people die in this war to quell chaos.
And just when Ye Tianlong was thinking about who to fight after beating Fang La, that Fang Mang was already fighting with Lu Zhishen, and was given a Zen staff to take a picture of the war horse, and then before he could get up, Zhensanshan Huang Xin had already put a big sword on his neck and controlled him.
In addition to Fang Mao, there are four remaining generals under his command. Among them, Flying Leopard General Guo Shiguang was wounded by Yan Qing's crossbow and was captured. Feitian General Wu Fu, Feiyun General Gou Zheng, and Feishan General Zhen Cheng All three of them were killed on the spot by the Qinglong Empire generals who were eager to make meritorious deeds.
As these generals died or were captured, the last more than 20,000 soldiers under Fang Mao's command also abandoned their weapons and surrendered.
After spending some time to completely clean up the rebels in Suzhou City, Ye Tianlong left 50,000 militiamen here, and then led the army to move forward.
This time, his target was Hangzhou City, the capital of Fang Lajun. When Ye Tianlong's army set off, Shi Qian was already on the road ahead of time, taking dozens of his special team members with him, preparing to sneak into Hangzhou City to gather information first.
It took more than five days for Ye Tianlong to arrive at the gate of Hangzhou City. When Shi Qian saw the army arriving, he immediately went out of the city in person to report to Ye Tianlong the situation in Hangzhou City.
It can be said that Hangzhou City is indeed the capital of Fang La's army, with a full 400,000 troops stationed there. However, Fang La is not in Hangzhou City. It is said that he has returned to his hometown of Qingxi County.
Although Fang La is not here, there are many enemy generals in Hangzhou City. Among them, the chief general is Fang Tianding, the eldest prince of Nan'an. Under him are four generals with high martial arts skills, including Baoguang Tathagata's Imperial Master Deng Yuanjue and Nanli Grandmaster. General Shi Bao, General Zhenguo Li Tianrun and General Protector Si Xingfang.
In addition to these four generals, there are twenty-four lieutenants in Hangzhou, namely Li Tianyou, Wu Zhi, Zhao Yi, Huang Ai, Chao Zhong, Tang Fengshi, Wang Ji, Xue Dounan, Leng Gong, and Zhang Jian , Yuan Xing, Yao Yi, Wen Kerang, Mao Di, Wang Ren, Cui Yu, Lian Ming, Xu Bai, Zhang Daoyuan, Fengyi, Zhang Tao, Su Jing, Mi Quan, Bei Yingkui.
The city of Hangzhou originally had high walls and thick walls, and there were so many soldiers, horses and generals stationed there. Ye Tianlong immediately understood that this was definitely a tough battle. It is no wonder that in the original plot, the Liangshan heroes led by Song Jiang were in the process of conquering Fangla. The losses were so heavy.
In order to capture the city of Hangzhou as soon as possible, Ye Tianlong decided to come up with a strategy to lure the snake out of its hole to see if he could lure the enemy's main force out of the city. At that time, with more than 20,000 cavalry under his command, he would definitely take the opportunity to severely damage the enemy. military.
As soon as he thought of it, Ye Tianlong immediately sent a few soldiers with loud voices to shout and invite a fight in front of Hangzhou City.
However, Fang Tianding is obviously not a fool. Seeing that the Qinglong Empire army captured so many of his cities in such a short period of time and lost so many soldiers, horses and generals, he already realized that this was He is such a hard nut to deal with, how can he go out of the city to fight just because of a mere scolding!
While sending people to call for battle, Ye Tianlong did not just watch. Instead, he sent a large number of militiamen to collect materials and make various siege equipment.
After those subordinates yelled and cursed all day long, and the enemy generals in Hangzhou City did not respond at all, Ye Tianlong knew that this strategy of luring the snake out of its hole would not work.
So after letting his army repair all night, he launched a strong attack on Hangzhou City at around eight o'clock the next morning.
And just when Ye Tianlong was fighting Fang Lajun in full swing, Xixia took the opportunity to cause trouble again.
Previously, because the most powerful Western Army of the Song Dynasty was stationed at the border, the Xixia Kingdom did not dare to rashly start a war with the Song Kingdom. However, the Western Army suffered a lot in the process of resisting the invasion of the Jin Army. Those who survived were basically transferred to Shu by Song Huizong Zhao Gou.
As a result, there were only less than 30,000 Western troops left on the border between the Song Dynasty and the Xixia Kingdom, and most of them were old, weak, sick and disabled with low combat effectiveness.
Xixia also saw the opportunity and seized the opportunity to launch an invasion against the Song Dynasty, which was about to die completely.
Xixia was obviously planning to play a big game this time. It pulled out almost all the soldiers and horses that could be fought in the country, formed an army of 200,000, and came to kill them in a mighty manner.
The Western army, which had only two or three kittens left, was unable to withstand the Xixia army, which had a large number of soldiers and horses. It persisted for less than three days before being defeated. Therefore, the Xixia army was able to advance straight in and in just half a month , and occupied both Qinfeng Road and Yongxing Military Road of the Song Dynasty.
After that, they began to attack Lizhou Road. Zhong Shidao led tens of thousands of Western troops to resist the fierce attack of the Xixia army in Xingqing Mansion. The Supreme Emperor Zhao Ji, who was hiding in Shu, asked for help, hoping that the other party could send some troops to support him.
However, Zhao Ji, a selfish and foolish king, values his own life more than anything else. He now has less than 100,000 regular troops left on hand, and he feels that they are not enough to defend Sichuan and Shu! How could they divide their troops to rescue Zhongshi Dao again?
So Zhong Shidao waited and waited, but in the end he did not receive any reinforcements. He only received an imperial edict saying that he was made the Grand Marshal of the Army of the Song Dynasty, allowing him to recruit and expand the army at will within the territory of Lizhou Road.
Zhong Shidao was almost angry to death when he saw this imperial edict. Now that he was besieged by hundreds of thousands of Xixia troops in Xingqing Mansion, how could he go out to recruit troops?
