On the battlefield, both armies were in agitation for a while. Whose reinforcement was this?
Li Mi jumped up the high slope and looked into the distance.
This is a large army, the distance is too far, and I only feel that the soldiers are coming in a fierce manner, with tens of thousands of people. But the distance is too far, and I only feel that it is misty and I can't even see the flag clearly. Li Mi was extremely nervous and secretly hoped that this was his own soldiers.
Behind them, although Yanshi City was more than twenty miles away, the closer one was Luokoucang City occupied by the Hebei army. Li Mi was not sure that the reinforcements were coming, but he could only comfort himself in his heart, looking forward to the reinforcements of Yanshi.
Suddenly, a Wei soldier with good eyesight shouted out, "It's the Hebei Army! They are the Hebei cavalry!"
There was another riot in the Wei army camp, and the soldiers all changed color.
"Nonsense!" Li Mi scolded: "Where did the Hebei troops come from?"
The subordinates did not dare to speak anymore, and watched the army get closer and closer. After a few breaths, they were less than two hundred steps away. The soldiers shouted, "It's my reinforcements, it's really our reinforcements!"
"It seems to be the cavalry of General Xu and General Shan!"
Li Mi was in an unknown fire and wanted to kill the yelling soldiers. But he was stunned at this moment. The figure on the war horse could see clearly. It was Xu Shiji and Shan Youxin’s Baihua Valley Army! The familiar forward formation was like a big red cloak flying on the flat ground in the wind, and the preparatory chopping posture of holding a scimitar over his shoulder. Undoubtedly, this was the old cavalry battalion of the Wagang Army. Now the Baihua Valley troops led by Shan Xiongxin and Xu Shiji! Under the reflection of the morning glow, the Baihua Valley reinforcements were clearly visible. Thousands of land were surging, killing with a rushing momentum. The soldiers rushed forward, like a storm.
"How is this possible!" Li Mi murmured: "Luokoucang is occupied by the Hebei army! How did they get through Luokoucang City? Why are they farther than Yanshi, but they arrive first than Yanshi's reinforcements?"
No one could answer this question. All the Wei army was inexplicably happy. The already collapsed array gradually stabilized. The soldiers turned around and returned to the battlefield.
The morning breeze is gentle, and the flags are flying. Xu Shiji and Shan Xiongxin's flags are fluttering in the wind!
Although the Wei army on the battlefield had discovered that there were not many reinforcements from the two generals Xu Shan, and it seemed that there were only about 10,000. However, Xu Shiji and Shan Xiongxin were recognized as Wagang's strategy second only to Li Mi, and brave and brave were the first-class generals who were known as Wagang's two heroes. The arrival of these two immediately gave the Wei army extremely confident.
The three generals Qin Qiong also discovered the newly arrived troops and sent several messengers to hurry up to the enemy and rush to the enemy. They shouted from afar, "Which army is it? King Chen personally led his troops to encircle and suppress the rebellion, and asked the general who commanded the troops to abandon the darkness and turn to the light!" They shouted three times in total, and the sharp voice could be heard clearly even by the deafening sound of horse hooves. But the cavalry army seemed to be silent and rushed forward. The messengers hurriedly turned their horses and fled.
At this point, the hostility of the army was fully revealed. Qin Qiong ordered, "Stop them!" A team of Hebei light cavalry was drawn from the combat team and hurriedly turned around to prepare for the battle. The cavalry in Hebei shouted, waved their lances and sabers, and kept cheering for themselves, with a grand momentum.
The two soldiers crossed each other, slashed and killed each other, and fought each other in close combat.
The two cavalrymen squeezed together to kill, and the swords were sprinting at lightning. The swords were shining in the sky, like lightning in the sky. The fierce blades slashed, slashed on the breastplate, chopped on the helmets, and resounded throughout the battlefield. The Hebei cavalry was shocked to find that the individual combat capabilities of the group of Wei cavalry in front of them were amazing! They were wearing red cloaks, raising their energy, and slashing with incredible agility. The soldiers were skilled in sword skills and well-equipped, and used fine fire to create scimitars used by the grassland people. The sword skills were incredibly fast. The swords flashed by, followed by blood and moans. A Hebei cavalry fell into dust. The Hebei soldiers next to them were shocked. It had been a long time since they headed south to the Central Plains.
Blood gushed, and my head had already flown into the sky.
This is not an ordinary Wei army, this is a real cavalry.
In the fierce battle, the impact of the Hebei cavalry was completely suppressed. Under the terrible scimitar of the Baihua Valley cavalry, the impact of the Hebei cavalry in the front row was basically blocked, like waves, slapped on the solid reef.
The fierce front line began to twist and turned into a curved arc-moon shape when it was counterattacked by the Baihua Valley Shengli reinforcements. The Hebei Light Cavalry gradually fell at a disadvantage. Their troops were insufficient, but only more than 10,000 people. They had just relied on their momentum to drive away the Wei army. But now the Wei army has obtained the Baihua Valley Shengli reinforcements and reorganized the array again. The Hebei Light Cavalry has not only fallen at a disadvantage in terms of number and momentum. The situation is gradually unfavorable, and they are defeated step by step and cannot stand firm.
Although the enemy was light cavalry, their culling momentum was even more fierce than the heavy armored cavalry. Even with the strong bright light armor of the Hebei soldiers, they could not stop the opponent's chopping, and even the people and armor were cut off.
Seeing that the situation was not good, Cheng Yaojin immediately sent a call to escape from the melee.
The Hebei Light Cavalry came and went like the wind. After receiving the order, they rode their horses and gradually escaped from the Wei army array. More than 10,000 Hebei Light Cavalry slowly retreated backwards and re-arranged.
The black stone beach was covered with troops and smoke filled with gunpowder.
Ten thousand cavalry of Huagu bypassed the two wings of the Wei army and gradually gathered in front of the formation. Xu Shiji and Shan Xiongxin each led 5,000 cavalry in the headquarters and gathered in the central army. The horns of the cavalry penetrated the vast plains and spread throughout the battlefield, whistling hoarse and deep, like the call of hell, and the sounds were passed down from generation to generation.
"Stop chasing!" Shan Xiongxin ordered, "Carrange the formation on the spot!" The personal guards sent the order. The cavalry drove the horses and returned to the team everywhere.
"The King of Wei is here!" A loud voice sounded. Under the urging of dozens of gorgeous armored guards, Li Mi rode his war horse towards Xu, and General Shan Er rushed straight towards him.
"See King Wei!" Shan Xiongxin, Xu Shiji and his subordinates all stepped forward to salute.
Li Mi smiled and turned over and fell down. He rushed forward with an extremely friendly attitude, and helped Xu Shiji, Shan Xiongxin and other reinforcements from Baihua Valley.
"Luckily you came in time, otherwise our army would have been defeated! Brother Xu and Brother Shan, why haven't the reinforcements from Yanshi arrived yet? You arrived first?"
Xu Shiji was wearing armor, and the brass helmet on his head covered most of his face. Under the helmet, he narrowed his eyes and looked at Li Mi at this time. Li Mi's face was a little pale, and even the gorgeous armor was a little uneven. Especially when he looked at them, he was both happy and a hint of alert.
Xu Shiji raised his lips slightly, revealing a trace of unknown sneer. He understood Li Mi's mood at this time. Before, Li Mi did not trust him and Shan Xiongxin and other old brothers, so he transferred them from an important position, transferred Huang Junhan from Jindi Pass to Huzhu, and even transferred them to Baihua Valley.
Xu Shiji had long understood Li Mi's suspicion about them. When the news of Huang Junhan surrendering to Hebei reached the ears of him and Shan Xiongxin, they did not feel much surprised. In fact, as soon as Huang Junhan surrendered to Chen Pojun, Huang Junhan then wrote a secret letter to them, accompanied by Chen Pojun's handwritten letter, intending to pull them over. The two of them had considered abandoning Wei and surrendering to Hebei, but it was of great importance and did not come to a single result.
Although the Wei State is no longer the original Wagang, they also participated in the establishment of the Wei State. The countless and blood in it made it difficult for them to abandon it for a while.
Looking at Li Mi who was as anxious as a dog of a family at this time, Xu Shiji felt contempt. If he was the lord of Wei, he would never have suffered such a defeat. When Luokou was defeated by the Jianghuai Army in the first battle, he should understand that the Wei army was unable to eat Chen and Zheng coalition forces. At that time, he should immediately retreat to Hulao or Luokoucang. The best way to defeat Chen Pojun is to cross the Yellow River, fight with the Yan coalition forces, and fight with the Hebei army on the north bank of the Yellow River. This is how to win, but Li Mi likes to play with his intelligence in everything and wants to repeat the action of defeating Wang Shichong, but unexpectedly fall into Chen Pojun's plan.
An ambush battle originally took the lead, but now the battlefield situation has completely fallen under the control of the Hebei Army. The Wei State had to be completely mobilized by the Hebei Army and fought an extremely bad decisive battle.
"Return to the King of Wei, General Wang Dangren has gathered all the generals in Yanshi. At present, more than 100,000 troops in Yanshi. When General Shan heard that Chen Pojun was coming, he led the light cavalry to pick up the King of Wei back to Yanshi. King of Wei also asked to order the entire army to return to Yanshi immediately in order to prepare for the enemy!"
"All the troops from all walks of life have arrived in Yanshi? OK, okay, okay! I will immediately send an order from the orphans, and the whole army will quickly return to Yanshi City!" Li Mi was very excited when he heard the arrival of reinforcements, and his fear was reduced a lot.
The Wei army changed its formation again, and the entire army turned around to retreat to Yanshi.
Just at this moment, accompanied by a large, low sound of horse hooves vaguely like muffled thunder from the sky, all the soldiers rushed to the battlefield. Countless dust rose, and in the dust, all the troops rushed towards each other quickly.
Loomingly, a big Wang Shishi flag was raised high in the wind, and countless war horses galloped over afterwards.
Looking at the soldiers and horses that were approaching quickly like dark clouds, looking at the familiar flags and armor, no one spoke again. All the Wei soldiers were very familiar with this old opponent who had been fighting for more than ten days. The Jianghuai Army arrived.
Before most of Chen Pojun's infantry arrived, Wang Xuanying's Jianghuai Army's light cavalry arrived first. More than 10,000 light cavalry ran like lightning and galloped like clouds.
