When Wei Mingshanxi arrived near Mizhi with a quick march, he was relieved to see that the Xixia banner was still hanging on the city.
Mizhi was surrounded by the Song army before, and they didn't get any news.
At this moment, the spies came to report:
"Report to Your Majesty, more than [-] Song troops are lining up in front of our army."
Wei Mingshan was stunned for a moment, then he was overjoyed and said with a smile:
"The Song army wants to fight our army? God help me!"
"I am a big summer iron kite, who can stop me from crossing the world?"
Then, he waved the command flag and said:
"Come here, order the iron kite to be ready, listen to my orders at any time, and break through the formation of the Song people!"
He has two thousand iron kites under his command, which have only been established for less than a year, and he regards them as his greatest reliance.
Hearing his order, his men, Iron Kite, hurriedly prepared their armor for battle.
The general behind Wei Mingshanxi quickly persuaded:
"My lord, our army is exhausted from a long distance, it is better to take a rest before fighting."
Wei Mingshan rebuked happily and angrily:
"Shut up, I am twice as strong as the enemy. What if the people of Song Dynasty run away timidly?"
"Cao Bin and Zhong Shiheng are my mortal enemies in Daxia. If you let them escape, you will die!"
When the surrounding generals heard the words, they immediately fell silent, not daring to say more.
Only then did Wei Mingshanxi nod his head in satisfaction, without any hesitation, he quickly ordered:
"Order the iron cavalry to break through the formation first, and Bubaziying take advantage of the situation to cover up and kill the Song people."
In spite of his great confidence, he added, in a moment of caution;
"Notify the guard Mizhi that if the enemy and our armies are in a stalemate, let him choose an opportunity to attack the Song army's flank."
After quickly forming the formation, Wei Mingshan waved the command flag and immediately sounded the drum horn.
Numerous war horses neighed and rushed towards the Song army's formation with the momentum of carrying mountains and surpassing seas.
Seeing the light cavalry in the front row suddenly fell down, Wei Mingshanxi didn't care, looked to the left and right and said:
"Song people love to play tricks, and this king has already expected it."
Then, without giving Song Jun a chance to breathe, he waved the command flag again.
I saw a group of well-equipped cavalry began to accelerate slowly, and then went farther and faster.
It was early morning at this time, the sun was high, and the golden sunlight spread down and shone on the iron ride, giving people a sense of holiness and majesty.
The horseshoes step on the vast land, like the sound of thousands of drums, the sea cracks and the mountains collapse...
In the large formation of the Song Army, Zhong Shiheng looked at the armored cavalry rushing towards him, and his expression changed:
"It's an iron kite!"
Zhong Dalang said, "Father, what should we do?"
Seeing that majestic momentum, he was terrified, although the front row was already densely packed with guns and horses.
But in such a large-scale battle, even if the opponent's heavy cavalry is blocked, the formation of one's own side will be disrupted.
Once the formation is chaotic, facing an army twice as large as your own, you will be a lamb waiting to be slaughtered.
Chong Shiheng gritted his teeth and said, "There is no way to keep Marshal Cao's personal guards, send them out!"
Zhong Dalang said: "The marshal's personal guards are only 800 people. If the whole army is wiped out, I will have no way to explain to him..."
Zhong Shiheng shook his head and said, "I can't take care of that much anymore. Marshal Cao left his personal guards because he was worried about this situation."
After finishing speaking, he no longer hesitated, waved the command flag fiercely, and shouted:
"General Cao Jiaojiao, I'm watching you!"
At this time, the sedan chair was heavily armored. After hearing the words, it just nodded slightly, then waved the big halberd in its hand, and only one word popped out of its mouth:
"kill!"
After finishing speaking, he immediately led the tiger and leopard riders to rush out of the formation and greet the iron kite.
On the battlefield at this time, smoke and dust mixed with the smell of blood are everywhere, and even the golden sunlight seems to have turned bloody.
Everyone's attention was attracted by the two heavy cavalry.
The lack of heavy cavalry in Xixia was due to lack of money, and the lack of heavy cavalry in Song Dynasty was due to the lack of qualified horses.
Therefore, heavy cavalry duels are extremely rare.
"Boom!"
The two heavy cavalry collided immediately.
But to everyone's surprise, the iron kite was cut down by the tiger and leopard rider in an instant, which was also a heavy cavalry.
They have even formed their own formations, and began to harvest the lives of the iron kites like chopping melons and vegetables.
The tiger and leopard cavalry not only outnumbered their horses by half a head, but also their soldiers were astonishingly powerful, with superb martial arts and skillful formations.
The iron kite had almost no power to fight back.
The two sides were stunned, especially Wei Mingshanxi, the corners of his eyes couldn't stop twitching, and he gritted his teeth and said:
"The enemy's warhorse was clearly trained by our Lord Xixia, and there is nothing wrong with it. I can't wait to kill your brothers and sisters!"
The horses ridden by tigers and leopards were all blackmailed by Cao Bin from the Empress Dowager, but now they have become tools for slaughtering Xixia cavalry.
The tiger and leopard cavalry can win more with less against the iron forest royal cavalry of Shangliao State, not to mention these iron kite cavalry who have been retrained for less than a year?
Wei Mingshan was delighted to see the iron kite being killed continuously, and said with blood dripping from his heart:
"My iron kite!"
As he spoke, he waved his command flag and said, "The whole army goes out and kills!"
At the same time, Zhong Shiheng was inexplicably pleasantly surprised. He did not expect that Cao Bin's personal guards would be so powerful. He repeatedly waved the command flag and said:
"Order General Cao to retreat and the crossbowmen to prepare."
In a short time, tens of thousands of troops from both sides had already fought together.
The spearmen of the Song army were in the front, and the crossbowmen were in the back. The rain of arrows covered the enemy soldiers in all directions as if they didn't need money.
Although Wei Mingshanxi had many soldiers, he could not break through the Song army's formation, and the Song army had few soldiers, so it was difficult to counterattack Xixia.
An hour passed, and the two sides only killed the sky and the earth changed color, and the blood was like a rainbow.
After Wei Mingshan stood upright, he asked impatiently, "Where is the defender of Mizhi City? Why hasn't he attacked yet?"
The general under his command hurriedly said: "The messenger hasn't returned yet, so there won't be any accidents?"
While speaking, the gate of Mizhi City suddenly opened wide.
But before they had time to show their happy faces, more than ten thousand Song Junfeis rushed towards Xixia's side and rear.
Wei Mingshan was so shocked that he almost fell off the horse, and hurriedly said:
"Caught in the trap, what should I do?"
If they retreat at this time, the army will collapse completely, but at this time, it is already a doomed situation, and whether they withdraw or not is actually doomed.
The general under his command hastily said:
"Your Majesty, retreat quickly, or we will die here."
Wei Mingshanxi immediately came to his senses, and said: "Yi Lingji blocks the ambushes, after the wretched soldiers lead the troops, the rest follow me and quickly withdraw."
The general who was persuaded by that member froze for a moment, and had no choice but to hand in hand with the other general and said:
"The last commander will obey!"
After giving simple instructions, Wei Mingshan quickly commanded the troops to retreat.
It wasn't until noon that the shouts of killing near Mizhi City gradually subsided.
Zhong Dalang, covered in blood, hurried up to Zhong Shiheng and reported:
"Father, in this battle our army beheaded [-] people, took [-] prisoners, and won [-] horses."
Zhong Shiheng asked:
"Hurry up and support Marshal Cao. Apart from those who fled, there are still more than [-] remnants under Wei Mingshanxi's command."
"Marshal Cao only set up an ambush with 5000 people, which is a bit dangerous..."
Wei Mingshanxi left the battlefield and ran for thirty miles. Just as he was about to breathe a sigh of relief, the spies suddenly came to report:
"Your Majesty, the cavalry of the Song people are catching up."
Wei Mingshan was overjoyed, and said: "Can't they find death? How many people are there!"
The spies said: "There are [-] cavalry, of which [-] are heavy cavalry, each with five horses..."
Wei Mingshanxi immediately stopped the thought of turning over and fighting, and hurriedly hit his horse and continued to escape.
At this moment, there was a sudden sound of shouts and golden drums in front of them.
"Kill, don't let the Xixia people run away, brothers kill..."
Wei Mingshan was delighted to see the smoke and dust in front of him, and said in surprise: "No, there is an ambush."
With that said, he hurriedly turned around and ran over from the side.
The soldiers in ambush were relieved when they saw the Xixia people disappear. When the smoke and dust cleared, there were only two to three hundred of them.
It's just that everyone has drums in their hands, and the horses are still dragging branches and dry grass...
A valley a hundred miles away from Mizhi City.
Zhong Saburo stood on a boulder, kept looking into the distance, worried:
"I don't know if Father and the others have won. Will the Xixia people come here?"
Lu Zhi said with a deep smile: "Don't worry, Major General, my uncle has no plans to spare, how could he do useless work?"
Zhong Saburo heard the words, jumped off the boulder, and said doubtfully:
"Brother Lu Da has so much confidence in Marshal Cao?"
Lu Zhi shook his head deeply and said:
"Anyway, I haven't seen Uncle make a mistake."
Zhong Saburo looked at the leeward side, and Cao Bin, who was flirting with beautiful women, whispered with envy in his eyes:
"You are the marshal's family general, has he rewarded you with some beauties?"
Lu Zhi shook his head deeply and said, "Lu Da is a good man, he doesn't like women."
Saburo Zhong was so disappointed, he curled his lips and said:
"I don't believe it, I'm afraid the marshal is reluctant to let you spoil something good."
Lu Zhiqi said:
"Fart, I, Ruda, have already passed the age of lust."
"Even if I kill someone, Uncle can settle the case for me."
"Don't talk about a few women..."
When he said this, he brought a little resentment.
He was originally a general under Zhong Erlang's command, but because of the strict military discipline of that kind of Erlang, he never talked about personal relationships.
Lu Zhishen fought against the injustice, and after killing someone by mistake, he didn't dare to see him at all.
If Zhong Erlang found out, he would not be able to escape the fate of being punished according to law, so he could only run away alone.
In order to prevent Zhong Erlang from notifying the government that he was wanted, he even turned into a monk to avoid him.
