Chapter 664 0659 [Two Tough Guys Collaborate]

Yue Fei's commonly used combat weapons include five types: bow, gun, spear, mace, and knife.

According to historical records, Yue Fei used to use the Zhangba Iron Spear, which is actually a kind of horse spear, which can also be dramatically misrepresented as Zhangba Snake Spear, which is similar to the four-meter-long spear of Hezhameng'an - the names of gun, spear, and spear have long been mixed.

This time it was a mission to rob the camp, and it was foggy, so it was not suitable to use a four-meter-long spear. Yue Fei only brought a bow, spear, and knife.

This is a spear that is neither long nor short. It can be used with one hand, freeing up the other hand to hold the bow.

In the fog, visibility is too low.

The two hundred Khitan cavalrymen who went out of the camp for reconnaissance, because they could not figure out how many Ming troops had come, and they did not dare to let the friendly troops open the gate of the camp without authorization, so they shot an arrow into the depths of the fog, and then galloped around the wall of the camp.

Faintly seeing the wooden fence of the camp, Yue Fei rode along the wooden fence, found the gate of the camp, jumped off the horse, and shot an arrow at a figure inside.

The cavalry under his command also followed suit.

The Khitan soldiers guarding the village gate and the archers in the nearby arrow tower (actually a small earthen platform) also shot arrows at them based on their sense of feeling.

The fog was thick, and neither the enemy nor us could see clearly.

The soldiers dismounted and poked into the village gate with spears. Yue Fei identified the enemy's position based on the screams, and kept drawing his bow to shoot armor-piercing arrows. Figures were shot and fell one after another.

"Bang, bang, bang!"

Under the cover of his teammates, the general Xu Qing led his soldiers to split the pivot of the village gate with an axe, and then several people worked together to hit it, and the village gate with the damaged pivot fell down.

Yue Fei turned on his horse, led the troops in a line, and continued to shoot arrows at the moving figures in the fog.

Wang Gui was responsible for leading the troops to charge the nearby enemy. The Khitan soldiers here were no longer organized, and most of them were running in the direction of the trumpet.

"Kill!"

Everyone continued to shout, and the shouts of killing resounded through the fog, and the scattered enemy troops did not dare to stop them.

If they saw flammable objects on the way, they would throw out an oil can and ignite it with a fire starter. Then they would take out torches, light the torches they brought, and then continue to mount their horses and rush forward.

Not long after entering the camp, hundreds of cavalrymen under Yue Fei had already scattered into several groups, and each of them blew horns to communicate after finding their targets.

Xu Qing was the first to discover the siege equipment, but as soon as he threw out an oil can, he heard many footsteps approaching, followed by a round of arrows.

"Blow the horn, blow the horn, the main force of the Jin soldiers and the siege equipment are here!" Xu Qing shouted while shooting arrows, and led the troops to retreat temporarily.

Soon, Yue Fei and Wang Gui came to join them.

Yue Fei asked about the situation and made a decision immediately: "The fog is so thick that we can't see anything, and we don't know how many enemy troops there are. Avoid the enemy troops here and rush in!"

Hundreds of cavalrymen left quickly and dispersed to start the fire.

The fog wet the tents, and it was difficult to ignite without kerosene, but they had little kerosene left, and they had used it to ignite many facilities along the way.

"Kill!"

The shouts of killing came from another direction, and it was Li Shifu who led his troops to charge in.

Li Shifu was very lucky. He followed the wooden fence and went around to the southwest gate. Just as he approached, he encountered a large group of Hebei Han soldiers rushing out. They were not fighting outside the camp, but fleeing to Zhaozhou to surrender to the Ming Dynasty.

"I am Li Shifu, the general of the Ming Dynasty. Get out of my way!"

Li Shifu didn't know that these Han soldiers wanted to surrender to the Ming Dynasty. He rushed over and kicked one of them with a gun, scaring the Han soldiers away.

Suddenly, a large group of troops came over. Li Shifu was about to fight, but he heard a man shouting: "I am Meng Bangjie, a Han general of the Pseudo-Dynasty Dynasty. I am leading my troops to return to the right path and rise up in rebellion. General, follow me!"

In this chaotic situation, Li Shifu did not suspect him and said without even seeing the person clearly: "Good man, let's kill the enemy together!"

Meng Bangjie shouted: "Where the siege equipment is, the Jin thieves have gathered heavy troops. Don't rush over again. You can go straight north, intercept the craftsmen who are fleeing there, and drive them to Zhaozhou to surrender to the Ming Dynasty."

"How many troops do you have?" Li Shifu asked.

Meng Bangjie said: "I originally had a thousand Han troops under my command, assisting the Khitan soldiers to garrison here. When the general came, most of his soldiers fled, leaving only these dozens of confidants. I was planning to turn against the enemy in front of the battle..."

"Don't say too much, lead the way quickly!" Li Shifu urged.

In history, Meng Bangjie was a civil official of the Pseudo-Qi Dynasty. When he surrendered to Yue Fei, he had become the governor of Henan Province. (When Yue Fei went north to fight, he gave half of Henan to Meng Bangjie for his command. He was definitely not a general in the ordinary sense.)

This man was a man of both civil and military talents. He was a local noble in Hebei. He was appointed as a general by the puppet court and ordered to recruit local soldiers to fight with the Jin people.

Before Meng Bangjie came to the front line, he had already thought about defecting. This time he just took the opportunity to surrender to the Ming Dynasty.

Under the leadership of Meng Bangjie, Li Shifu quickly arrived at the north of the camp, drove the craftsmen and civilians to run west, and asked all the soldiers to shout: "Go to Zhaozhou quickly, surrender to the Ming Dynasty and get a reward! Go to Zhaozhou quickly, surrender to the Ming Dynasty and get a reward..."

If you still want to go north, kill them on sight.

After a period of horseback chasing and hacking, a large number of craftsmen and civilians changed direction and fled westward to the bank of the Xiaoshui River, and followed the river bank to Zhaozhou City to surrender to the Ming Dynasty.

"Boom boom..."

There were bursts of horse hoof sounds coming from the north, and Meng Bangjie exclaimed: "It's the Jin cavalry coming!"

"Blow the horn, retreat!"

Li Shifu immediately gave the order. Although he did not destroy the siege equipment this time, he killed many Han soldiers, civilians and craftsmen in Hebei.

On the way of retreating, Li Shifu heard the sound of fighting in the southeast, and said to Meng Bangjie: "Your soldiers have no horses, run to Zhaozhou quickly, I will lead the troops to help General Yue!"

"Take care, general!"

Meng Bangjie bowed and shouted: "My sons, follow me to surrender to the Celestial Empire, don't be dogs for the Jin people anymore!"

"Surrender to the Celestial Empire!"

"Don't be a dog!"

The dozens of Han people who had been following Meng Bangjie all the time immediately roared excitedly, which was completely different from their previous lying state.

They ran all the way south, and when they met the scattered Han people along the way, they shouted to persuade them to join the group. When they fled to the outside of Zhaozhou City, hundreds of people had gathered around Meng Bangjie.

Xiao Zhonggong had gathered troops in the fog and defended the siege equipment with all his strength.

Who knew that Yue Fei and Li Shifu did not come to kill him, Xiao Zhonggong was unwilling to wait for death, and took the initiative to lead his troops to the nearest Yue Fei troops. He wanted to entangle Yue Fei and then encircle and annihilate him after the reinforcements arrived.

Being in the camp and in the fog, it was difficult for the Khitan soldiers and Xi soldiers to form a large formation. Xiao Zhonggong divided his elite troops into four teams and rushed to different directions to intercept Yue Fei.

Yue Fei also faintly heard the sound of horse hooves in the north, and found that Xiao Zhonggong sent troops to intercept him. He didn't care about much, and blew the horn to gather troops while rushing straight to the south.

Several arrows were fired in the fog, and Yue Fei was also hit by two arrows. Holding a bow in his left hand and a spear in his right hand, he rode into the enemy.

With continuous stabbing and sweeping, the Jin soldiers who were fighting Yue Fei retreated one after another with the momentum of a tiger descending from the mountain.

The Jin soldiers further behind could not see the situation in the fog at all. They only felt that Yue Fei was coming with great momentum, so they subconsciously retreated to both sides.

Wang Gui and Xu Qing followed behind Yue Fei, shooting arrows continuously to help him kill the nearby enemies who were blocking him.

Hundreds of cavalrymen were like a sharp arrow, and Yue Fei, Wang Gui, and Xu Qing were the arrowheads, and all the enemies they encountered were pierced by them.

"Form a formation, form a formation!"

"Raise your spears and form a formation!"

"Block this place, they can't escape!"

In front, Xiao Zhonggong led his personal soldiers and shouted.

Yue Fei took down three arrows on his spear, pointed them at the place where the sound came from, and shot them fiercely into the fog, with the warhorse under his crotch always running forward.

One arrow shot, another arrow, and another arrow.

The first arrow hit Xiao Zhonggong's chest, but he was wearing armor and the arrows didn't penetrate deeply. The second and third arrows were avoided because Xiao Zhonggong had already dismounted in a panic.

"General Yue, I'm here to help you!"

In another direction, Li Shifu led his troops.

Before Xin Qiji returned to Song, he led 30 people into the enemy camp of 50,000 people, and chopped off the head of the traitor and escaped calmly.

Li Shifu also had similar actions. He was transferred to assist in the attack on Song. He used a trick to get close to the Marshal of Jin, Salihe, and directly arrested Salihe among the thousands of troops. Countless Jin soldiers chased him madly, and Li Shifu felt it was difficult to escape, so he threw Salihe off the cliff.

The Jin soldiers hurried down the mountain to rescue people, and Li Shifu successfully escaped.

Of course, the price of doing so was also very high. Li Shifu's family was killed by the Jin soldiers.

At this moment, Li Shifu wielded two swords, and this two-sword style of cavalry combat was also rare.

The "History of Song Dynasty" said that when he rebelled against the Xia Dynasty and joined the Song Dynasty, tens of thousands of soldiers from the Western Xia Dynasty came to intercept him. Li Shifu waved his two swords and led 800 old soldiers to fight against the Iron Harriers. His record was probably a bit exaggerated - he killed and trampled tens of thousands of Western Xia soldiers and captured 40,000 horses.

Li Shifu rushed into the enemy army with two swords in his hands. Those Khitan soldiers were originally blocking Yue Fei, but they turned around to resist when they heard the sound of horse hooves.

Li Shifu took the lead and slashed left and right.

Although his old soldiers had just received war horses today, most of them knew how to ride horses. Although their riding skills were only average, they were enough to deal with the panicked infantry.

Xiao Zhonggong stood up in shock and was about to command the troops. He was suddenly attacked by Li Shifu from the side and suddenly didn't know which side to deal with.

He hurriedly gave orders to his generals, and Li Shifu's side was about to kill through, catching the Khitan soldiers off guard.

Taking advantage of the enemy's panic, Yue Fei took the opportunity to lead his troops in.

Xiao Zhonggong raised his spear to meet him, and his personal soldiers also rushed forward.

With the assistance of Wang Gui and Xu Qing, Yue Fei quickly broke through the enemy in front and finally saw Xiao Zhonggong's outline in the fog.

The two men rode against each other on horseback. Yue Fei pushed away the enemy's spear with his spear, and stabbed it diagonally when the horses crossed, and suddenly stabbed Xiao Zhonggong's throat.

During the gallop, in the fog, the tip of the spear really pierced his throat.

Xiao Zhonggong was shrouded in fear, and when he fell, he covered his throat, and blood gushed out from his fingers.

"The enemy general is dead, kill!"

Yue Fei led his troops through the formation, and Xiao Zhonggong's personal soldiers avoided him in fear.

Li Shifu also came from the side to join him. When he learned that the enemy general was dead, he smiled and praised: "General Yue has good martial arts!"

Yue Fei said: "Thank you brother Li for your help."

When a large number of Jin cavalry chased them, Yue Fei and Li Shifu had already rushed back to the city.

After entering the city to count the number of people, Li Shifu lost more than 60 people and Yue Fei lost more than 20 people.

Not all of them were killed, they might have been separated in the fog.

It was almost noon when the fog completely dissipated.

Wanyan Zongwang looked at Xiao Zhonggong's body, then looked at Zhaozhou City in the distance. He was a little confused about where the main force of the Ming army was.

Were all the Ming army so fierce?

Why did the Song army collapse in one blow?

They were all Han people, but the difference was too big.
