my wife is mulan

There was only one hour left for Tan Jin, and he had few choices. First, he had to leave Jiangxia city, and he couldn't be attacked by the defenders in the city immediately; second, he had to find a convenient defensive position to re-arrange.

Five miles away from the northwest, there was a small patch of soil on a slightly higher terrain. This was the only location Tan Jin could choose. After making the decision, Tan Jin led his army there without hesitation. Orderly.

Sima Chuzhi, who was standing on the tower watching, knew that even if he went out of the city to pursue him, he would not be able to gain much. If the Song army set up an ambush in front, it would not only fail to make achievements, but would also lose troops and generals, so he did not pursue them.

Tan Jin's 5000 men and horses rushed to Xiaotubao to occupy a favorable terrain, and the movement here was discovered by the scouting posts in front of the Qianjun cavalry. After all, they occupy a high ground, and it is difficult not to be discovered.

Although there is still some distance from the official road leading to Jiangxia City, but because this is the only place with high terrain nearby, it was first listed as a reconnaissance target by the Qianjun reconnaissance cavalry post.

At this time, Sima Chuzhi also sent scouts out of the city to investigate the news. When he learned that Tan Jin's 5000 troops occupied the small soil bag, he guessed that Tan Jin's purpose was to hold back the cavalry and buy time for the main force of the Song army to retreat. .

After investigating the enemy's situation clearly, Sima Chuzhi immediately ordered people to go out of the city to move all the luggage discarded by the Song army into the city.

The 5000 cavalry of the Gan army soon arrived near the small soil bag occupied by Tan Jin's 5000 troops. A scout came to report to the leading general Wei Wubing: "General Qi, according to investigations, 5000 of the main force of the Song army have already arrived. Retreating to the west, it seems that they intend to cross the Han River and retreat to the Jingling area; but they left 5000 people to stop our army, and now these [-] people are stationed on this small field, and the leader of the Song army is called Tan Jin!"

"It's him?" Wei Wubing frowned. He had heard about Tan Jin's reputation a little. The generals have also done a little research, and this Tan Jin is one of them that he attaches great importance to and admires.

The difference is that in Qianguo, people from humble backgrounds have more chances to get ahead and encounter much less resistance. It is different in Liu Song Dynasty. The wealthy noble families control the promotion of officials and generals. Climb to a higher political arena.

Wei Wubing grew up in a poor family, and he was born in the lowest-class peasant family. People say that someone is from a poor family, but it does not mean that this person is a real commoner. He still has a family background, but is just poor. Someone like Wei Wubing doesn't even have a family background.

Wei Wubing is a premature baby, weak and sick since he was a child, his father died early, and he grew up relying on his mother to pull a cart alone. In this era, very few premature babies can grow up normally. It is also a blessing for him to grow up, because Worried that he would not grow up, his mother named him Wubing, hoping that he would be free from illness and disaster throughout his life.

Wei Wubing is unfortunate. There are five brothers and sisters in his family. He is the youngest. His mother alone cannot support them. He met the first noble person in his life when he was six years old. His mother adopted him to a The old widower is the son.

The household used meat and mountain herbs to nourish his body, and taught him martial arts, archery and hunting skills.

When he grew up, Wei Wubing signed up for the second enrollment at the Military Academy of Qianguo, and was admitted to the junior class of the Military Academy with excellent results.

The military academy recruited students for two consecutive years in the first two sessions, but since the third session, it has recruited students every three years. The number of recruits has been greatly reduced, and the resources have been pooled and used. Every student in the school is a dragon among men, and Wei Wubing, a commoner, was lucky to catch up with the best era when the Military Academy was enrolling civilians on a large scale.

Since then, the military academy has recruited fewer and fewer people directly from private recruits, and most of them are recruited from elite soldiers in the army.

"Come on, let's go and see!"

Under the leadership of Wei Wubing, five thousand cavalry rushed to the vicinity of the small soil bag at an extremely fast speed. The Song army on the small soil bag had already occupied a favorable terrain under the deployment of Tan Jin. It is also very difficult for infantry to attack easily.

Wei Wubing sat on his horse and observed for a while, took out a map and studied it, raised his head and said, "Tan Jin really has a bit of knowledge, there is only such a high-lying place nearby, we want to use five Don't even think about thousand cavalry defeating his five thousand infantry!"

The deputy general next to him said: "General, the mission His Majesty has given us is to deal with as many vital forces of the Song army as possible with the sharpness of the cavalry attack. If we are dragged here, I am afraid that we will not be able to complete the mission!"

Wei Wubing said with a smile: "Tan Jin thought I would spend time with him here, but he was totally wrong. The position he chose is indeed easy to defend and difficult to attack for the cavalry, but this is not a traffic hub! You take 1000 People stayed to contain Tan Jin's [-] infantry, and I would take the remaining [-] cavalry around to hunt down the main force of the Song army, what do you think?"

The deputy general clasped his fists: "The general thinks it is feasible. If Tan Jinruo goes down the mountain to fight the general, the general will not confront him head-on. At that time, he must let him know how our cavalry fight!"

"That's good, I'll leave this place to you! Come here, send an order, the first thousand cavalry team will stay, and the other thousand cavalry teams will bypass this place and continue to pursue the main force of Song Army Xiao Bin's army!"

Tan Jin, who was on the small soil bag, could clearly see the movement of the army dividing the troops. He knew that this was troublesome. He only blamed this place for the flatness of the river. There were no traffic arteries that were easy to defend and difficult to attack. Xiao Bin ordered him Block the cavalry and prevent him from retreating.

"General, the army has been divided, what should we do?" The lieutenant looked at Tan Jin worriedly.

Tan Jin's face changed several times, and he said firmly: "The general of the army is ordered to look down on me, and only leave more than a thousand people to contain my 5000 people. Do you really think that our five thousand brothers are all soft persimmons? Send the order to go down, prepare to rush down, and first give the [-] cavalry soldiers who are left behind a disarm!"

"promise!"

It didn't take a moment for the sound of rumbling war drums to be heard from the earth bag. Under Tan Jin's personal leadership, five thousand Song troops rushed from the earth bag to the one thousand cavalry cavalry below.

"Kill kill"

Five thousand soldiers of the Song Dynasty, wearing armor and holding a sharp edge, rushed down from the earth bag with bursts of shouts and killings.

The lieutenant general of the cavalry below took a look, pulled the reins, turned the horse's head and shouted: "Retreat!"

If the cavalry wants to run, how can the infantry catch up?In the blink of an eye, a thousand cavalry disappeared.

When Tan Jin rushed down the earth bag with his men and horses and found that the thousand cavalry had gone far away, he would definitely not be able to catch up, so what should he do next?

After some consideration and weighing, Tan Jin ordered to chase after the four thousand cavalry led by Wei Wubing. The back of Xiao Bin's army, right?

"Follow the general to the west, advance at full speed!"

Under Tan Jin's command and leadership, five thousand Song troops ran forward and pursued westward at the fastest speed.

"General, it's too dangerous to do this. If the thousand cavalrymen catch up, what shall we do?"

Tan Jin couldn't take care of that much anymore, "Take one step at a time, our task is to ensure the safety of the main force's back, and we must not let the cavalry catch up with the main force!"

Only half an hour later, the deputy general of the Gan army led a thousand cavalry to catch up with Tan Jin's 5000 troops.

The general in charge of the rear of the hall sent someone to report to Tan Jin: "General, the thousand cavalrymen have caught up, and they are only three miles away from the rear of our army!"

What should come can never be avoided, Tan Jin has been mentally prepared for a long time, he ordered Zhou Le, who joined the army: "Zhou Canjun, I will give you three buildings with a thousand soldiers and horses, you go and stop them, and stop the pursuers!"

Zhou Le was unwilling to use a thousand infantry to block a thousand cavalry. If he did not occupy favorable terrain, the task of blocking the rear would be ten deaths and no lives. Looking around, how can there be any defensive terrain around here?It's all flat, isn't that letting him and the 1000 people go to die?

"General, the general is not sure that he will be able to stop the pursuers. Look at the surrounding terrain. How will this battle be fought? I'm afraid that if the cavalry of the cavalry rushes up, a single charge can wipe out 1000 people!"

Tan Jin's face was ugly, and he had nothing to do. He had no effective helpers under him, and he was just a bag of wine and food. If a general was to lead the army, and his qualifications were not enough, he might not be able to convince the crowd. It would be useless if he couldn't command. A person who came here to grab credit for his qualifications, but at least he still has some background, soldiers will not disobey orders.

"Why, do you dare to disobey orders?"

"From time to time, general, from time to time, subordinates don't obey military orders. Subordinates really don't have the ability!"

There was no time to argue, and Tan Jin increased his chips: "I'll give you 500 more people!"

"No, really"

"2000 people, this is the general's bottom line, if you don't accept the order, military law will follow!"

Can 2000 people stop a thousand cavalry?The cost of raising one cavalry in the Qian Kingdom can raise four infantry. If two thousand infantry can block the charge of a thousand cavalry, are the people of Qian Guo crazy to develop cavalry at such a high price?

Zhou Le had already scolded Tan Jin's ancestors for generations in his heart, but he couldn't refuse anymore. If he refused again, Tan Jin ordered him to be chopped off, and he would die unjustly.

"Okay, just 2000 people, the subordinates will take orders!"

Tan Jing immediately ordered 2000 people to be assigned to Zhou Le's command, and warned him: "At least block the thousand cavalry for two hours. If you retreat early, military law will be followed! After the withdrawal, you don't have to go to join me, and find a way to cross the river yourself. Bar!"

Chapter 1068 Entering the Urn

Tan Jin led the 3000 people away very simply and neatly, without nostalgia.

A general walked up to Zhou Le who joined the army and asked, "Zhou Canjun, shall we?"

Zhou Le was in a bad mood, and immediately yelled: "What are you doing in a daze, set up the formation and prepare to meet the enemy!"

The building general said: "It's too late!"

"what?"
