Corpses littered the ground in the encirclement, and the smell of blood rose to the sky.

A fast horse came galloping, "General Qi, the county government has been captured, all four city gates have been captured by our army, and the county magistrate appointed by the Southern Dynasty has also been captured by our army!"

Sun Shujun ordered: "Kill the county magistrate appointed by the Southern Dynasty! The [-]th cavalry team immediately went out to the south gate to the river bank to control the wharf, gather the boats and burn them!"

"Obey!" The thousandth rider came out under the leadership of the commander and headed for the south gate.

Sun Shujun ordered the barracks to be cleaned up again, and the soldiers will still live here for a few days.

Next, Sun Shujun sent troops to clean up the remaining Southern Dynasty troops in the city, and soon took control of the whole city.

"Come here, go and report to the king, our army has captured Yicheng!"

"Come here, find firewood and burn all the four city gates down!"

Burning the city gate, what does this mean?The soldiers and generals who carried out the order were at a loss, why did they burn the city gate?Sun Shujun quickly let everyone understand why he burned the city gate.

Chapter 734 The Disaster of Liu Songjun

After capturing Yicheng, Sun Shujun's [-] soldiers and horses only stayed in the city for two days before leaving, whereabouts are unknown.

Another day later, Nan Chao, Yan Shibo, Bu Tiansheng, Liu Huaizhen and others all bowed down and asked for a decisive battle with the Gan army.

"The soldiers are holding their breath in their hearts, their morale is high, and their military spirit is invincible, Your Majesty!" Xiao Sihua immediately stood up, clasped his fists and said, "Please lead the army to fight against the dry army, so as to solve the current predicament!"

Wang Xuanmo immediately jumped out and shouted: "Do you only know how to be brave? The safety of the world depends on His Majesty, and the most important thing now is to protect His Majesty to cross the river safely. Only on the other side of the river can we talk about fighting the dry army!"

"My minister seconded the proposal!" Zang Zhi immediately agreed.

Some other civil servants stood up and echoed.

If Hua Mulan was the only one who went all the way, Liu Yikang would not be afraid of the current strength of the army. In the past few months, the two sides have fought hundreds of battles, each winning or losing. The [-] cavalry are the middle soldiers, with the strongest combat effectiveness. The others are mostly the town garrison and state and county soldiers, whose combat effectiveness is obviously inferior.

But now it's different, Zhao Junsheng brought another [-] cavalry, and cut off Liu Songjun's retreat and supply line like a wild horse, so Liu Yikang lost his confidence.

When fighting against the [-] troops led by Hua Mulan, Liu Yikang was really afraid of those [-] cavalry. The infantry didn't do anything, and they just guarded against the [-] cavalry. Even so, the two sides were still just fighting evenly.

But now it is different, Zhao Junsheng brought [-] cavalry, this is the elite army cavalry that has been battle-tested, Liu Yilong can't think of any way to deal with these [-] cavalry, now that this cavalry is coming, it can be said that it is like Mount Tai. .

Liu Yikang knew that he should continue to be disturbed by it, and immediately ordered: "Our army has been fighting Hua Mulan's army for so long and has not taken advantage of it. Now that Zhao Junsheng has brought another [-] elite cavalry, our army has almost no chance of winning, let's cross the river! Time waits for no one, send enough people to cut down bamboo and wood to make rafts and bamboo rafts as much as possible, and the whole army will go to the shallow water section to cross the river!"

The generals had no choice but to agree: "Obey!"

On the afternoon of the first day of August, Liu Song’s army of 8 troops forcibly crossed the river [-] miles west of Yicheng County. They made a wooden raft and bamboo raft, and immediately someone carried it to the river to cross the river. Liu Song’s army without rafts and bamboo rafts Wanting to cross the river earlier, but didn't want to wait for the raft to be built, a large number of Liu Jun began to wade across the river on foot.

This is the first time Liu Song's soldiers have experienced the scene of tens of thousands of people crossing the river.

When the troops were withdrawing, the soldiers of the Liu Song Army did not dare to take off their armor for fear of being punished by the general. They were about to enter the water and cross the river. The armor was too heavy, and it would make people sink if they wore it. Regardless of other things, they took off their armor and threw them into the river. Without the restraint of armor, the soldiers were much more relaxed, and they waited for the order from the superior to cross the river.

In a forest a few miles away, a military spy reported to Sun Shujun: "General, they are crossing the river!"

Sun Shujun's eyes shot a frightening light, "My mission here is to cut off the return of the army. The king and Marshal Hua will catch up soon. We can't wait any longer. We must attack immediately to stop Liu Song." The army crosses the river, pass the order down, and everyone gathers!"

"Yes!"

Soon, the 8 cavalry were assembled, and Sun Shujun ran back and forth in front of the formation with a spear in his hand. He stopped in the middle and faced the soldiers and shouted: "Soldiers, the [-] horses of Liu Song's army are preparing to walk across the water at this time. He, they are already at the end of the road, the emperor of the Southern Dynasty is among them, and there are many ministers and generals accompanying him, as long as any one of us catches one, he will not have to worry about it for the rest of his life, and it is easy to get promoted and get rich!"

"Some people may say, they have 8 horses, and we only have [-]. How can we catch them? But have you forgotten that Liu Songjun's army has lost his morale at this time, and each of them just wants to go to the police station early?" Crossing the river, how could you still want to fight to the death with us? So, this time is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity! Brothers, follow me and kill them. If you don’t have any hesitation and fear, rush to the bottom, disperse them, and kill them , Capture them, let’s get promoted and make a fortune together, let’s go!”

Sun Shujun's agitation was very powerful, and all the soldiers followed him as if they had been beaten with chicken blood, and rushed towards the [-] Liu Song army several miles away.

"Boom..." Although Sun Shujun only has 5000 people, he has [-] war horses. The movement caused by his running speed is too great, and each person can ride three horses in rotation. Rushing inside and outside to cross the river has no pressure on the horse.

How could it be possible that Liu Songjun could not hear such a big commotion. The outermost Liu Songjun looked to the west one after another, and saw a large number of dry cavalry galloping quickly from two miles away.

"It's not good, the dry army is catching up and killing them!" The soldiers of the Liu Song Army who were the first to react shouted one after another, and ran towards the river while shouting. They wanted to cross the river. Was it hacked and killed by the cavalry of the dry army?

While running, someone shouted: "Run, the cavalry is coming, run!"

Are you thinking of these soldiers who call their comrades to run away for the safety of their comrades?They want everyone to join the ranks of fleeing. In this way, no one will hold them accountable. As the saying goes, the law does not punish the public. If everyone joins the ranks of fleeing, the charge of deserting soldiers will not be established.

"What? Why did Gan Jun come over so quickly?" Liu Yikang turned pale with shock.

Xiao Sihua immediately said: "Your Majesty, it is very likely that it is the cavalry of the dry army that raided Yicheng County. They should have been hiding nearby!"

Liu Yikang couldn't even speak easily, "Xiao Sihua, I, I ordered my troops to resist, hurry up!"

Xiao Sihua clasped his fists and agreed: "Observe the order!"

He immediately rode towards the more than [-] people in the headquarters, where Liu Yikang asked loudly: "Is the bamboo raft ready? I want to cross the river, so I can't stay here anymore!"

"The raft on which His Majesty rides is still under construction..."

Liu Yikang roared: "Go and find a small bamboo raft first, I want to cross the river, go!"

The ministers all dissuaded: "Your Majesty, no, the current is fast and the water level is high. It is too dangerous to ride on a small bamboo raft, and it will capsize at any time! Your Majesty, don't panic. There are so many soldiers and horses again. The dry army has less than 5000 people. Call here quickly!"

Liu Yikang also realized that his reaction was too panicked, he was the emperor, he was so panicked, one can imagine how panicked the soldiers below were.

"Okay, I'll wait, tell Xiao Sihua, let him try his best to block this dry army cavalry!"

Chapter 735 Capturing the Monarchs and Subjects of the Southern Dynasty

Just when Sun Shujun led five thousand fine riders to the [-] Liu Song army who were about to cross the river, Zhao Junsheng and Hua Mulan each led their teams to Longkang and Wei counties, which were located in the northwest and north of Yicheng respectively. In the northeast direction, the distance is not far.

"Lu Gui, how far is it to get to Yicheng?" Zhao Junsheng asked as he trotted through the ranks on horseback.

Lu Gui said, "Your Majesty, we have bypassed Longkang, and this place should be less than sixty miles away from Yicheng!"

"Where are Marshal Hua's troops now?"

"Should have passed Ming County, they should be 100 miles away from Yicheng, and more than [-] miles away from our army!"

Zhao Junsheng nodded: "Mulan's team has more than half of the infantry, and their marching speed is not as fast as ours! I don't know what's going on with Yicheng. Sun Shujun sent someone to report that Yicheng had been captured two days ago. I'm sure I can't keep Yicheng, Gu Zhen is a little worried!"

Gao Xiu clasped his fists and said: "Your Majesty, don't worry too much. I think that kid Sun Shujun is very shrewd, and he is not rigid and stubborn. He will definitely not stick to righteousness!"

"Lu Gui, send spies to find out the news first!" Zhao Junsheng ordered.

"Yes, Your Majesty!"

Then Zhao Junsheng gave another order: "Send the order, the whole army will speed up the march!"

Zhao Junsheng didn't know if Sun Shujun would stick to Yicheng. He was worried that Sun Shujun would not be able to stop the [-] Liu Song army from crossing the river. If the [-] Liu Song army ran away, wouldn't everything he had done before be in vain?

In fact, with the cavalry quality of the dry army, Zhao Junsheng could have marched at a faster speed, but this cavalry of 3 people fought for too long this time. They circled the entire north and ran tens of thousands. After taking Chang'an, they ran thousands of miles non-stop to Huainan, attacking cities and villages along the way, other armies would not be able to hold on, maybe they would have collapsed long ago, but this army is tough Life survived.
