Chapter 722 The Battle of Qishan!

Lu Zheng once again locked his target on Qi Biao, which is another blind spot that the opponent is not easy to think of! Generally, according to habitual thinking, since Lu Zheng has captured Miao City, he will definitely not abandon the city, because Lu Zheng’s specialty is to defend the city! Relying on the city to resist Song Naifeng, the two sides fight, maybe Lu Zheng can gain new results!

Also, even if Lu Zheng did not defend Miaocheng, the most likely route he would go south. Who would have thought that Lu Zheng would not go south, but instead headed north, taking advantage of the night to lie down at night and head straight to Qishan!

Song Naifeng did think of ways to deal with Lu Zheng, which was to gather the 100,000 troops, connect them from beginning to end, and then advance like a stone mill, leaving no gaps between them, leaving Lu Zheng's surprise attack without an opportunity.

Isn’t Lu Zheng’s method just to use the gaps between the troops to encircle? What else can Lu Zheng do if Song Naifeng does not leave any gaps?

However, Song Naifeng ordered the entire army to gather in Miaocheng. Before entering Miaocheng, they had not arranged the formations! This undoubtedly gave Lu Zheng a good opportunity.

Let’s talk about Qi Biao. He originally led 20,000 people. Although there were 5,000 people not his soldiers, these 5,000 people were swallowed by Lu Zheng in one mouthful, and as the master, he could not shirk his responsibilities.

There were even strange rumors in the Northwest Army that Qi Biao and Lu Zheng might have colluded, otherwise why would Lu Zheng only deal with Dong Jialin and ignore him?

The conflict between Qi Biao and Dong Jialin is known to the whole army. Dong Jialin is over. Is Qi Biao very happy? The 15,000 cavalry under his command will no longer be supervised. Will he fight back at critical moments not only fail to become a force in the Northwest Army, but will help the evildoer instead?

These strange words were quickly suppressed by Song Naifeng. At this moment, Song Naifeng, as the main general, was very sober, that is, no matter what, his camp should not be in chaos and his morale should not be in chaos.

The more surprising the opponent is, the more confident the opponent is, the weak strength is. As a veteran of the battle, Song Naifeng has absolute confidence in his own strength. In addition, he has been dealing with the Qi family for half his life and knows that Qi Biao will not be able to surrender to Lu Zheng no matter what, because once this matter is a fact, the Qi family must be completely cleaned first, and Qi Biao must not escape unscathed.

The Song family has dominated the northwest for so many years, how can they not have any means? How could Song Naifeng be a kind person? He is not in charge of the army. At the critical moment, Song Naifeng's decision to kill is absolutely unambiguous!

Therefore, Qi Biao is under great pressure now, and he is unable to pursue Lu Zheng all the way north. He received a general order from Song Naifeng to let the troops quickly approach Miaocheng. He quickly traveled day and night to Miaocheng.

It’s just that there is a deep gap between him and the Song family army of the Northwest Army, so others don’t bother to pay attention to him. Everyone is desperately walking south, only to regret that their parents have lost two legs. Qi Biao is limited by his own route in Qishan. The road above Qishan is difficult to walk. Where can there be a fast army with the other two routes on the official road?

Therefore, they walked in the mountains for two days, but had not yet come out! Accompanied by their generals and counselors, Qi Biao climbed up to look far away, looking at the flat river that could be seen in the distance, and pointed to the front and said, "There is a mountain there! After Qishan, we should be able to arrive at Miaocheng within two days. I hope the defenders of Miaocheng can hold on for a few more days, otherwise when we arrive, Miaocheng has been captured. I am afraid that we will be joking and neglected again when we look back!"

The adviser said: "General, the city defense of Miaocheng is actually quite solid. Lu Zheng is not an idiot. His defense in Miaocheng is said to be very strict. Many people died after two days of attack on Sichuan Mountain and Mountain, but they didn't even climb up the city wall! This arrogant general also suffered a time when he was defeated. The last time he was in the prince's camp, he still remembered so arrogantly to you now. I don't know if the general will still be so arrogant when he meets him next time?"

Qi Biao sneered and said, "Chuanshanyue has always been a brave but unscrupulous man. Humph, can he dare to underestimate me? Look at it, there will be times when this kid suffers!"

Qi Biao sighed and said, "Lu Zheng has only heard of his name before, and has never seen his real person, nor has he learned his methods. This time I finally saw it. It's so famous, amazing!"

"However, his skillful wife cannot cook without rice. No matter how good his methods are, the prince will be in the divine position. Now he has brought all his troops together and then headed straight to the capital. Even if Lu Zheng is powerful, he may have to fight us!"

Qi Biao said this, but the strategist around him did not respond. He frowned slightly, turned his head to look to the side. Several strategists opened their mouths wide and suddenly pointed at the front with their fingers and said, "General, no, look!"

Qi Biao frowned slightly and looked in the direction of the fingers of several strategists. His face suddenly changed, because in his sight, he saw a big flag erected on the mountain opposite, with a big word "Lu" written on it. This was clearly Lu Zheng's army!

"No! Lu Zheng was actually coming for us, we were fooled! Hurry up, summon the entire army and we will break through!"

Qi Biao shouted loudly, and he ran back immediately. At this moment, the enemy's horn sounded first!

Qi Biao's army camped at the foot of the mountain. At this time, various woods and rocks on the mountain greeted him down, and then there was the smell of tinder oil. Then the fireworks rose. The cunning Lu Zheng actually attacked the fire in Qishan. Once the fire burned, from the mountain to the valley, even if it was not buried in the sea of ​​fire, the heavy smoke caused great harm to people!

The key is that the panic caused to people is too great. Qi Biao is full of cavalry and is not good at mountain combat at all. Lu Zheng gave them a sudden attack in Qishan, which caught them off guard!

The entire army suddenly became in chaos. At the critical moment, Qi Biao used the order to gather the cavalry, and then rushed out desperately. From here, it was very close to Qishan, but it was only a dozen miles away, but these ten miles were deadly. The sea of ​​fire fell out, and arrows were everywhere!

Qi Biao's ten thousand men rushed out like headless flies, running for their lives. When they lost their troops and generals along the way, they probably had less than ten thousand left.

But the good show that Lu Zheng prepared for them had just begun! Qi Biao's Northwest Army had just rushed out of Qishan, and the 20,000 cavalrymen who were ambushing in front quickly crushed them. Look at Lu Zheng's cavalry, heavy cavalry in front and ranger behind. Because at the exit of the mountain, Qi Biao didn't even have a chance to escape. There were mountains on both sides, mountains behind, and a sea of ​​fire was still on its back!

When Qi Biao saw this scene, his eyes turned dark and he murmured: "It's over, it's over! Hurry up, send the signal!"

Qi Biao asked hundreds of people in the army to activate arrows, and the signal was very loud and the sky was released, and it could be seen within a radius of hundreds of miles!

However, at this moment, Lu Zheng was waiting for work with an absolute advantage, and the formation of troops had already been tightened. Heavy cavalry lined up in front, and the rolling iron cavalry crushed like a torrent. Qi Biao had no room to hide, so he could only fight to the death. The cavalry battle between the Northwest Army and the South Mansion Army began like this.

Of course, such a battle is not fair, because the number of people is unfair, and the preparations of both sides are not fair. But the battlefield is a trick. In addition to the soldiers on both sides, the tactical strategy of the leader is also the core key. Lu Zheng never thought of fighting fairly with the enemy. The only thing he wanted was to defeat Qi Biao or even destroy Qi Biao!

Qi Biao's ruthlessness also came up. When he was desperate, he aroused his blood. He pulled out his waist and pointed at the front and said, "Brothers, our success or failure today will be here. Bounce out. I, Qi Biao, will save my life and protect you from your life's glory and wealth. If we can't rush out, we will only see you again in the next life!

The cavalry of the Southern Prefecture Army is the way of our Northwest Army. Our Northwest Army teaches them how to kill people with a knife today! There is nothing to say at this moment, just give your life to kill. Brothers, kill!"

Qi Biao was also a powerful general. When he was desperate, he pulled out his long sword and rushed to the front with one horse, directly touching Lu Zheng's heavy cavalry.

Inspired by him, countless Northwest troops rushed over one after another. The distance between the two sides quickly narrowed. Qi Biao closed the long sword, took out the ox horn from his back, bent the bow, and put the arrow on the bow. The two-stone strong bow shot out sharp arrows that broke through the air. The long arrow was like a rainbow, and one arrow hit the weak part of the throat of a heavy cavalry. The heavy cavalry fell head-on, causing chaos in the Southern Prefecture Army.

"Coax!" The Northwest Army cheered together, and everyone's morale rose rapidly. The other soldiers also followed the leader's appearance, bent their bows and arrows, and started a long-range attack.

Qi Biao has few heavy cavalry under his command. The key is that they have just emerged from Qishan, and even heavy cavalry cannot wear armor. They have no choice but to fight to the death on the battlefield at this time!

Their archers did not have Qi Biao's means, and the shooting effect was very small. Lu Zheng's archers began to hide behind the heavy cavalry and shot. The arrows shot by thousands of archers were everywhere. These arrows shot into the enemy formation, and the soldiers of the Northwest Army were harvested one after another.

Qi Biao gritted his teeth and clamped his horse's belly hard, almost rushing through the area where the opponent was shot in the rain forest of arrows. When the distance between the two sides quickly narrowed, the power of the cavalry weakened.

In these two rounds of shooting, Lu Zheng killed one-third of the enemy, and Qi Biao's cavalry was left with only six or seven thousand troops!

Seven thousand pairs of Lu Zheng and 30,000 cavalry, the battlefield was outside Qishan, and the two sides quickly strangled into a group, and the canyons and plains outside Qishan became purgatory on earth!

At close range, the Southern Mansion Army still couldn't take advantage, and the incompetence of the heavy cavalry was infinitely weakened under the powerful combat power of the Northwest Army.
