Chapter 229 The Crow Army goes south!(1/2)
"Lord, the Ya'er army has gone south and has captured Jinzhou!"
"How many people?"
"Forty thousand to sixty thousand."
"Recalling all the troops pursuing the Jin soldiers."
Zhang Hua, as the Xia army advanced, entered Yubi. He learned that Li Keyong's Crow Army had gone south, so he recalled the generals.
"Li Keyong is a cruel person, and the Ya'er Army inherited Li Keyong's style, which is extremely cruel. Let's avoid his sharp edge for the time being."
Zhang Hua had just defeated Wanyan Zongwang, and Wanyan Zongbi's brothers were severely injured. The eight troops of the Imperial Guards, the Tiger Guards, and the White Lotus Army were almost completely injured and were unable to continue to fight with the Ya'er Army.
"Li Keyong has thirteen sons or adopted sons with strong military power, known as the 'Thirteen Taibao'. They are all powerful generals. Some people, even if they meet the last general, will lose."
Yang Ye brought his troops back and mentioned Li Keyong, the hero of the Five Dynasties and Ten Kingdoms, and was very alert to Li Keyong.
Yang Ye was a military general from the Five Dynasties and Ten Kingdoms. Later, he defected to Emperor Zhao Kuangyin of Song Dynasty and knew the situation of Li Keyong and the Ya'er army best.
The forces established by Li Keyong eventually unified the north. Zhao Kuangyin's Song Dynasty can be traced back to Li Keyong's Later Tang power.
Like the Northern Prefecture Army, the Ya'er Army influenced the historical trend.
"Thirteen Taishang Insurance..."
Zhang Hua knew the reputation of Thirteen Taishang.
The Thirteen Taibao were all famous generals or powerful generals, and two emperors of the Later Tang Dynasty were born.
During his lifetime, Wanyan Zongwang did not dare to provoke Li Keyong's power.
"Reinforce the defense of Yubi City and resist the Crow Army."
The seven thousand defenders of Yubi City surrendered to Chen Qingzhi, and Zhang Hua won this important fortress without any effort.
If you occupy Yubi City, then Li Keyong's Crow Army will not be able to go south to threaten Guanzhong.
"Jinzhou fell into Li Keyong's hands, and the current situation has divided Hedong with Li Keyong."
Zhang Hua occupied Puzhou and expanded to Yubi, while Li Keyong's Crow Army occupied Jinzhou.
The troops pursuing the Jin army returned to Yubi one after another and came to meet with Zhang Hua, and all of them were captured.
Among them, Yue Lei's team brought back a big figure - Qin Hui, the powerful prime minister of the Southern Song Dynasty.
After Qin Hui became a prisoner under the ranks, his face was pale and bloodless, and was taken to Yubi by Yue Lei.
"Qin Hui, last time you asked you to escape in Heluo, now you finally fell into my hands."
Zhang Hua finally met the notorious Qin Hui.
Qin Hui's appearance is not much different from that of ordinary civil officials. The difference is that Qin Hui was a peace sect of the Southern Song Dynasty. He planned with Zhao Gou, surrendered to the Great Jin Kingdom, and killed a group of people including Yue Fei, suppressed dissidents, maintained Zhao Gou's rule, and became the power prime minister for the rest of his life.
Therefore, Qin Hui had a bad reputation and a group of people wanted to kill Qin Hui.
Qin Hui knew that he was doomed, so instead of being tortured, he might as well seek to die quickly: "The defeated general only wants to die quickly."
Yue Lei said sternly: "Qin Hui, just letting him die like this, is really a good deal for him. Please give him the lord to the general to deal with it!"
Zhang Hua weighed the pros and cons in his heart.
Is Qin Hui talented?
have.
Jin Wushu appointed Qin Hui to farm in Hedong, and Qin Hui provided a lot of food and grass for the Great Jin Kingdom.
But Zhang Hua could not appoint Qin Hui.
Not to mention Zhang Hua’s personal opinion of Qin Hui, taking in Qin Hui will only ruin his reputation.
This alone is enough to make Zhang Hua kill Qin Hui.
"He will leave it to you for disposal. Don't let him escape."
Since Qin Hui no longer has any value for use, Zhang Hua generously handed Qin Hui over to Yue Lei for disposal.
"Thank you, lord! Because lord gave me troops, I can capture this thief alive. If lord has any orders in the future, Yue Lei is willing to go through fire and water, so he will never refuse!"
Yue Lei bowed respectfully to Zhang Hua.
You can avenge Yue Fei, but Yue Lei is already dead without regrets.
"Your father may be alive and fight somewhere in this world. You still need to cherish your life and meet him in the future."
Zhang Hua sacrificed a Qin Hui and got Yue Lei's loyalty, thinking it was cost-effective.
In addition, Yue Lei may be the key figure in recruiting Yue Fei and Yue Yun in the future.
Qin Hui had the desire to die at this time.
If Zhang Hua kills him, he can still be relieved.
Yue Lei, who holds the hatred of killing his father, will not let Qin Hui die well.
Other Xia army also captured the war. Chen Gong roughly calculated that in the battle of swamps, the Xia army beheaded 80,000 and captured 50,000. Many of them were rural brave men who were carried by the Jurchens to participate in the war or transport grain. The real Jurchen soldiers dared not fall into the hands of the Xia army.
The head general of the Jin army, Wanyan Zongwang, the Jurchen general Chi Zhanhui and more than a dozen senior Jin generals were killed on the battlefield, and Tiefutu was almost wiped out.
The Xia army lost 60,000 yuan, which was equivalent to a war, and half of the imperial guards were lost.
Among them, the elite Tiefutu team killed more than 20,000 Xia troops, which shows the strength of Tiefutu.
"It's hard to bear the battle at this level if you do it again."
After learning about the casualties, Zhang Hua couldn't help but sigh at the tragic battle.
More than one hundred thousand soldiers and horses were sleeping in the reed ground.
After destroying Tiefutu, the Imperial Guards were also seriously injured.
"Lu Lingqi chased the Jin soldiers and had not returned yet."
Mulan was in charge of the Women's Army, and Lu Lingqi was her general. As a result, all other troops were ordered to gather in Yubi City, but Lu Lingqi's wolf cavalry lost the news.
"Did Lu Lingqi have an encounter with the Ya'er Army going south? If this is true, it would be a bad thing."
Zhang Hua did not doubt Lu Lingqi's force.
However, the Ya'er Army had several generals with higher force than Lu Lingqi.
"Let the Tieying scouts, but don't stop at night, and quickly find Lu Lingqi's traces."
Zhang Hua immediately sent two scout troops to Tieying Scout and Yebuku.
In the territory of Jinzhou, Lu Lingqi led three thousand wolf cavalry to pursue Wanyan Loushi.
Wanyan Loushi was an ever-winning general of the Great Jin Dynasty and was rarely defeated. His talent for "ultimate formation" was quite terrifying, so Lu Lingqi wanted to capture Wanyan Loushi as much as possible and go back to receive the reward.
Wanyan Loushi was chased by Lu Lingqi's wolf cavalry, and his physical strength was almost at its limit, and he was also desperate.
He defeated Liao and destroyed Song, and was one of the first generals under Wanyan Aguda. He made great achievements. As a result, he was famous for his lifetime and was destroyed in the reed land in Hedong and was chased by a female general.
Fighting alone and competing for force, Wanyan Lou Shi is really not a match for Lu Lingqi.
"I have reached my limit of physical strength, but I didn't expect that I, Wanyan Loushi, would die here."
Wanyan Loushi drew out his sword, and he had no strength to escape and had to commit suicide.
"General, there is no way out!"
Several personal soldiers following Wanyan Loushi pointed forward and shouted excitedly.
Wanyan Loushi looked into the distance and saw a cavalry in black clothes and black armor pressing towards him like black clouds. The wind swept the remaining clouds, and the Tang army's flag was waving!
In addition to the Tang army's flag, the Crow Army also created a special black crow flag, which was cold and harsh and frightening.
But this Tang was not the other Tang, but the Later Tang power of the spiritual Tang Dynasty Li Keyong!
Li Keyong believes that he inherited the orthodox of the Tang Dynasty!
In front of the Crow Army all over the mountains, there was a powerful general in a white cloak, holding his spear high and swallowing thousands of miles of energy!
This white-robed general was particularly conspicuous among the dark Crow Army.
But the more this happens, the more it means that the general has absolute confidence in his own force.
"Crow Army? Li Ke took the opportunity to go south with this one-eyed dragon. These people are more cunning than the other."
Wanyan Loushi recognized it as Li Keyong's Crow Army and did not show his expression of surviving the disaster.
Li Keyong is not a good guy. He is cruel and likes to kill people.
The only reason why the Jurchen military general defected to Li Keyong was just because Li Keyong was a Shatuo native, so he could reuse these Jurchens.
"Stop the march!"
When Lu Lingqi saw the Crow Army led by the white-robed general appear, she reached out to ask the Three Thousand Wolf Cavalry to stop.
The Ya'er Army is not that easy to provoke.
Above the heads of Lu Lingqi and the wolf cavalry, an unknown crow was hovering, and a dangerous aura approached.
"retreat!"
