Chapter 259: Holding the bottle-shaped pass, chasing after Wang Gubu. Personal expedition!

Chapter 259: Attacking the bottle-shaped gate, chasing the Wang Gu tribe relentlessly. In person!

On April 25, under the bottle-shaped gate, Xiao Haohu fell and cursed, and his chest was full of anger!

The morning mist at the gate has not dissipated, and the shadows are about hundreds of generations. They are all bald and hung rings. They are all tall, waving their soldiers with bare hands, swearing dirty words, and shouting and scolding there, but they are not very good at speaking. The soldiers of Yue's army in the gate of the mountain ahead did not hear clearly. There was no good words, but they were not able to respond.

The dangerous road in front of me is like a natural chasm. In the past three days, Datong's elite troops were firmly blocked outside the pass. There were only a few stone fences on the top of the mountain, but there seemed to be tens of thousands of elite troops hidden. As long as the cavalry rushed forward, there would be enough rolling stones, hot oil, lime, strong arrows and crossbows to greet them, and they were condescending, with great power, but when they heard the sound of killing at the pass, how could they know how many soldiers were on it?

The Jurchen elite cavalry is the most powerful. The above-mentioned capital, Xijing (Datong), and the northern desert is the most peaceful. The Jianghuai period has been safe for many years. The elite soldiers and horses of the Great Jin have long been stationed. For the Great Jin Kingdom, the Mongolian enemy in the north can cross the Great Wall at any time, take the Central Plains in the south, and force the capital to go to Beijing in the east, which is far more threatening than the Yue Family Army in Hedong and the Zhao Song army in Jiangnan. Therefore, the Dajin army has provided many services in recent years for the use of troops and horses. At present, this Datong army is one with elite soldiers and the other with the Mongolian troops attacking year after year. How can it be compared with the wealthy soldiers in Kaifeng that have not been riding and shooting for a long time? Therefore, with Xiao Haohu's order, all of them served to die. At present, the opposite side is just a bandit of Yue Family, so how can it be invincible!

But the situation is stronger than that of the people. After three consecutive days of fierce attacks, the people were trapped and the horses were scarce, and more than 2,000 casualties were killed or injured. However, they could not help the bandits, so Xiao Haohu Bu's angry.

"What a good thief! I have the courage to come down the mountain and fight with me. What a hero who is so sneaky!"

Xiao Haohu was helpless, and he was cursing at the foot of the mountain, hoping to inspire the thieves on the mountain to come out of seclusion and kill each other. He saw that there was no response on the mountain. In anger, he came forward to curse himself, but spoke standard Chinese language, and the mountain could clearly hear it. Cai Jin heard Xiao Haohu speak wildly on the top of the mountain. Seeing that all the soldiers under his command were unfair, he laughed and threw the half-clear pheasant leg bones in his hand at the Jin soldiers' cluster at the foot of the mountain, cursing: "Follow this dog thief to scold him, don't pay attention to him! All the generals obeyed the order: Let people cook more wild game, and they will be roasted today! Hahahaha!" The generals were ordered and looked at each other, and they were all agitated. They didn't know how tolerated this Cai Dutong.

"This group of golden dogs is extraordinary!" Cai Jin saw the elite Jurchen soldiers at the foot of the mountain, and although he did not speak, he was secretly shocked: "Although the Taiyuan Mansion has many soldiers, I am afraid that they may not be able to take down this group of thieves during the field battle. What's more, the troops in our unit are only more than 10,000, and with few enemies, how dare you win? The strange thing is that Yang Xiang only ordered Datong's troops to be drawn out, but he never fought with this group of thieves!"

Seeing that Xiao Haohu was cursing, he still didn't see any movement at the gate. He roared in a furious manner: "All the troops obey orders, don't waste your energy and rush to the gate with these timid southern barbarians!"

At the moment, the sound of killing in front of the pass was shocking the sky, and thousands of Jin soldiers raised their shields and rushed forward. Naturally, there were already deep ditches and high bases in front of the pass, and the troops at the pass were prepared. When they saw the Jin thieves approaching again, they were not polite. The flying arrows were like locusts, covering the sky and the sun. The sound of fighting and howlings came again. In a short while, the Jin people had already surged to the front of the pass. The rolling stones on the mountain showed their power, smashing the Jin people's bones and limbs. They all hurriedly avoided it, and it was difficult to advance for a second.

Seeing that the Jin army returned in vain in the first round of attacks, Cai Jin was expected to be like this today, so he laughed and said, "My sons are more careful. I'm going to bed. As long as Xiao Haohu has not entered the pass, don't disturb me!" He turned around and entered the tent and lay down without mentioning it.

Zhu Jun smiled bitterly when he heard this: "This President Cai is really free!"

As the saying goes: Feng Shui turns and it is really true. After noon, the Jin people failed to attack for half a day and were already weak. Xiao Haohu had to order to make rice, and he was optimistic about the pass to prevent the Yue family army from attacking and retreating.

But before the rice was cooked, several horses could be heard flying. At this time, there was no fighting in front of the formation. The sound of horse hooves resounded for several miles. Even the Yue family army at the gate heard the movement and looked down.

"Sir! The Helan Khan of Wanggu's army personally led a large army to attack!" The person who came rolled down from the saddle, his body was covered in blood, his face was covered in dust, and his voice was hoarse: "In the past two days, three prefectures and counties have been attacked, thousands of soldiers and civilians have been killed and injured, and countless people have been captured by cattle and sheep. At present, the thief army has gathered a brigade and will attack Datong Prefecture. You can return to the army to rescue!"

After hearing this, Xiao Haohu gritted his teeth and looked at the Yue family camp on the mountain, stared at it for a moment, then shouted: "Draw the camp! The vanguard army followed someone to rescue Datong, and the rear team led the camp to slow down. Don't let the Yue family bandits chase after it!"

In an instant, smoke and dust rose everywhere in the camp, and more than 10,000 cavalry and horses gathered together in a blink of an eye. Xiao Haohu led his horse to take the lead in the camp. Under the action of thousands of cavalry, dust rose several miles of dust on the avenue.

"Xiao Haohu escaped! Xiao Haohu escaped!" The Yue family army closed the Yue family and saw the Jin army's flag moving, and knew that Xiao Haohu had already left the camp. The direction should be towards Datong. Although they were not clear about the investigation, they also knew that the situation was reversed, which was very beneficial to their own family.

"What?! Xiao Haohu escaped?!" Cai Jin heard the news and could not sleep peacefully, but he was wearing a happy robe and armor. He hurriedly went up to the wall to observe. Sure enough, there was a panic in the Jin camp, and nearly half of the troops were gone. The smoke and dust raised in the distance had not yet dissipated, but Xiao Haohu's handsome flag was missing.

"My boys get on the horse!" Cai Jin was full of energy and asked to take action when he mentioned the gold-retaining bob he used for.

"The governor is not anxious!" The school of the lockdown shouted: "There are more than 4,000 thieves guarding the gate, and there are still thousands in the camp. Do you really want to fight hard?"

Cai Jin lay on the gate and looked carefully. It was true that there were more than 4,000 cavalry and Jin thieves waiting for battle at the gate. Although the Jin camp was in chaos, there were no more than 6,000 soldiers or 7,000 soldiers. If he attacked like this, he would be afraid that there would be any damage, so he said angrily: "I will bear it anymore, let's see when these thieves will withdraw!"

At this time, outside the city of Datong, there were people shouting horses neighing, which was very lively. The Han army responsible for defense on the top of the city was as anxious as an ant on a hot pan. Seeing the guards of the army outside the city, the Helan Khan of Wang Gu tribe pointed at the city. I wonder when it would attack the city. The army in the city had already encircled and suppressed the Yue family bandits, so how could they defend well? Fortunately, there were not many Mongolian soldiers. If they had to attack the city for a strong attack, it would be difficult to capture. If it was delayed for a day or two, Xiao Haohu's army had returned. What were they afraid of at that time?

Although the defenders at the city wall were sure that this was the case, Helan Khan outside the city was not stupid either.

"Let's let the Jin thief live for more hours!" Luo Yan pointed to the city and said to the generals around him: "This has also disturbed the Jin thief. It is expected that Xiao Haohu will not be willing to give up. We don't need to attack the city. As long as we attract Xiao Haohu to return to the army and drag him to the grassland to circle around a few circles! This Datong Mansion belongs to our family sooner or later!"

One night later, the soldiers of Datong Mansion went up to the top of the city and watched them. They were all overjoyed and shouted loudly: "The Mongolian thief has escaped!"

The place where Mongolian soldiers stationed outside the city was in a mess, but there was no more soldiers. It was expected that overnight, the Mongolians had already escaped far away and did not dare to attack Datong Mansion. The red sun rose, and before the Si was approaching, the hooves outside the city were thundering, and dust on the ground rose, and panic was once again on the top of the city. However, when the smoke and dust dissipated, they saw Xiao Haohu Shuaiqi. It turned out that more than 10,000 cavalry who were helping Datong this time rushed to the road overnight, and finally returned to Datong for more than 200 miles a day and night.

"Where did the thief army go?" Xiao Hao and Hu Cheng didn't enter, and just shouted outside the city.

Although the defenders at the top of the city were not clear about the details, they were still pointing to the north. Xiao Haohu shouted loudly and led the army north. Sure enough, they chased for only fifty miles, and the horse manure hoof prints were everywhere on the road. He had indeed seen the traces of the Mongolian army walking. Xiao Haohu was overjoyed and knew that he had chased the right direction. He carefully investigated the way and chased them straight.

I was chasing here happily, but I didn't know that all the Jin people retreated outside the bottle-shaped pass. Seeing that the four or five thousand cavalry who were holding the tail slowly retreated, Cai Jin could not bear it, so he led more than 10,000 cavalry to follow him. The Jin people who were left behind were also elite. How could they fight hard for days and never rest? They were even more nervous and could not sleep well overnight. Now they saw the Yue family cavalry coming from behind, and they were afraid first, and they resisted a little, and they all rushed to the horses.

He hoped to throw the Yue family army away as far as possible. The backward naturally cried and called for his parents. He was killed by the Yue family army and chased after more than fifty miles. Cai Jin saw that he had already killed seven or eight hundred Jin troops, and most of the rest had already scattered. He knew that it would be futile to chase them any more, so he had to return. In this round of advance and retreat, the Yue family army suffered only dozens of losses, but killed more than two thousand Jin cavalry, which was a big profit. He just didn't know how the business of Helan Khan was.

Xiao Haohu was full of confidence at the time. He estimated that the Mongolian bandits could not escape 200 miles, but he didn't know that the more they chased them, they were trapped and horses were exhausted, and there were still no trace of the Mongolians. According to the degree of dry and wet horse manure on the ground, the Mongolians were always forty or fifty miles away, but they were not able to catch up with these dozens of miles.

Three days later, Xiao Haohu suddenly woke up on the boundless prairie: after days of chasing, Helan Khan was leading his nose and detouring the decisive battle with the army he led. The attack on Datong Prefecture seemed to be just attracting his army. From beginning to end, he had never planned to capture Datong Prefecture!

Since then, the Kelie tribe has also taken action. In two months, it has forced it to Yanjing six times. Although the soldiers and horses of Datong Mansion have been injured, they still have to divide their troops to Yanjing to assist in defense. They also received a warning from the capital: Hutus led thousands of troops to lead the army, and even the two tribes were captured by nearly half of the population!

This is awesome!

When Wanyan Liang heard about the revenge, Mongolia was attacking, and in anger, he summoned the monarch and ministers to discuss military and political affairs in the palace, but this was different from the past.

"I am determined to fight in person. All the families of the ministers should be careful to go to Beijing and not shake the hearts of the army and the people. The army will launch, and it is expected that within a few months, we will definitely suppress the thieves and then return!"
