"The Xia army's cavalry has arrived in the north of Shinye Castle, who can fight?"

As Yang Shiro's brother-in-law, Cai Mao is responsible for defending Shinno Castle.

Khitan general Xiao Talin led 3,000 cavalrymen of the Shan army as vanguards to test the defenders of Xinye City, and Xinye was shocked.

Cai Mao looked around at Wu Jie, Liu Pan and Huang Zhong who were present.

"Maybe I can fight."

Huang Zhong volunteered.

"Huang Zhong, are you really allowed?"

Seeing that Huang Zhong's temples were gray and he was over 50 years old, Cai Mao couldn't help but wonder about Huang Zhong's ability.

"Although I am old, my sword is not old."

Huang Zhong is not willing to be outdone.

"Mr. Cai Mao, the Wu army in Jiangdong dispatched military generals Huan Wen, Zu Ti, Liu Kun, Ling Cao and other military generals to come from Jiangxia County!"

"The reinforcements promised by Wu's army have finally arrived."

Cai Mao was overjoyed when he heard that the Wu army sent reinforcements.

The Wu army was stronger than the Song army. It can be imagined that the King of Wu had the upper hand in the battle between King of Wu and King of Song.

"Huang Zhong, you bring five thousand cavalry to fight against the vanguard of the Xia army."

Although Cai Mao was the main general of Xinye City, he was the famous general of the Southern Song Dynasty, Wu Jie who was the same as Yue Fei and Han Shizhong.

"It will definitely defeat its pioneer!"

Huang Zhong led 5,000 cavalry out of Xinye City to fight against the Khitan general Xiao Talin.

Huan Wen and Zu Ti led 100,000 Wu troops to support Xinye.

Huan Wen and Zu Ti were famous generals of the Eastern Jin Dynasty. They had already become active in the Lujiang and Chaisang areas a few years ago.

Liu Kun and Zu Ti are the two protagonists in the allusion "Watching the Chicken to Dance", but Liu Kun's ability is much worse than Zu Ti's ability.

Ling Cao was the father of Ling Tong, a military general of the Eastern Wu. Ling Tong was just a child at this time.

When the Wu army entered Xinye to assist in defense, Cai Mao held Huan Wen's hand and sighed: "The Xia army is coming in a fierce manner and wants to seize the land of Jingzhou. Although we were enemies before, now, with the great enemy in front of us, we should join forces to defeat the enemy."

Huan Wen nodded: "I once fought with the Xia army in Hefei. At that time, the King of Xia had not unified the north. They were indeed unprecedented strong enemies."

Cai Zhong, Cai and the two brothers were submissive and said to Cai Mao in a low voice: "Brother, the Xia army is invincible in the world, we cannot be the opponent of the Xia army..."

Cai Mao scolded: "Before fighting, why do you need to be ambitious and destroy your own prestige!"

Cai Zhong and Cai He were once captured by Mi Fang, and had psychological shadows on the Xia army. They still murmured in a low voice, believing that the Jingzhou army could not resist the Xia army's offensive.

The 5,000 Jingzhou cavalry led by Huang Zhong and 3,000 Khitan cavalry of Xiao Talin have already encountered an encounter in the north of Xinye City!

"Break down the enemy!"

Xiao Talin waved the mace in his hand, and 3,000 Xiao Chuo's cavalrymen of the Shan army attacked Huang Zhong's cavalry!

Although Xiao Talin's troops were less than Huang Zhong, the cavalry he brought belonged to Xiao Chuo's high-level cavalry, so it was entirely possible to defeat 5,000 Jingzhou cavalry.

The war horses galloped, and the Shan army was fired at the same time, and the Jingzhou cavalry kept falling from their horses!

Huang Zhong holds the longbow? The arrow is shot without any slightest, and one arrow kills a cavalry belonging to the Shan Army!

Xiao Talin noticed that there was an old general among the Jingzhou cavalry. He actually shot an arrow in an empty charge? More than 20 cavalrymen from the Shan army were shot and killed, so he waved his mace to hit Huang Zhong!

The Jingzhou cavalry along the way were hit by a mace? The armor was deformed, and the iron nails destroyed the iron piece!

Huang Zhong gave up his bow and arrow, held a big sword and confronted Xiao Talin!

"die!"

The mace was roaring and hit, blocked by Huang Zhong's big knife? The blade swayed violently!

Huang Zhong kicked off the mace? He chopped Xiao Talin!

Xiao Talin tried his best to avoid Huang Zhong's big sword. The blade was less than an inch away from Xiao Talin's nose. Xiao Talin could already feel the sharpness of the sword light.

If he was hit by Huang Zhong's big knife, he might die in the small town of Xinye.

Xiao Talin, who reacted, was scared and sweated in cold sweat. He clamped the horse's belly and retreated back.

The cavalry of the Shan army had already defeated the cavalry of Jingzhou? Because the chief general retreated? He had to turn his horse's head and escape from the battle.

Huang Zhong relied on his own force to chase Xiao Talin in the melee.

The brief battle has already made Xiao Talin realize that he is not Huang Zhong's opponent? So he thought about attracting Huang Zhong to the main force of Xiao Chuo, the leader of the Khitan Legion.

With Xiao Chuo's ability, even Huang Zhong could not escape as long as he was besieged by her superior forces.

"Don't chase the enemy!"

Huang Zhong pursued him for fifteen miles and suddenly realized the danger approaching, so he decisively led his troops back to Xinye.

Yes, it's about escaping back to Shinye, not withdrawing.

In front of Xiao Talin, Xiao Chuo commanded tens of thousands of cavalry of the Khitan Legion. Yelu Xiuge, Yelu Xizhen, and the kings of the Khitan North and South Courts led a Khitan cavalry to detour, forming half an encirclement.

If Huang Zhong dives into the encirclement or takes a step later, he will fall into Xiao Chuo's trap.

"It's a pity... some veterans have a keen intuition about danger..."

Xiao Chuo knew that veterans on the battlefield were very sensitive to danger. Sometimes even if they did not see the other party’s ambushing army with their own eyes, these veterans on the battlefield would have a premonition of murderous aura and then make a choice.

After Xiao Chuo failed to ambush, he didn't think there was anything. If the strange plan could not be successful, he would attack him head-on.

The Women's Legion, Khitan Legion, and the National Protection Legion, the three armies were moving together, and the black clouds were overwhelming the city.

Huang Zhong returned to the city and went to Cai Mao for his order, losing about 700 cavalrymen.

"Xia Army, Xia Army is already visible!"

"The Xia army's troops are so fast!"

Cai Mao, Wu Jie, Huan Wen and others immediately climbed the city and looked at the black lines that appeared in the north.

As the vanguard of attacking Xinye City, the Khitan cavalry held the battle flag of the Xia army and flew!

Wave after wave of Khitan cavalry, like black waves.

The soldiers guarding Shinye were in panic.

No matter who it is, everyone knows that the Chutian forces are mainly cavalry.

Not long after Huang Zhong saw that he returned to Xinye City, the Xia army was at the city, and the military force was invisible and the situation was cold behind him.

If Huang Zhong had not retreated in time just now, he might have been captured by the Xia army.

Huan Wen sighed: "The current Xia army is no longer the same as before."

Wu Jie, the real leader of Xinye, said: "Use the Divine Arm Bow and the Eight-Cow Crossbow as a defensive weapon. To defend the city, you should not fight the Xia army in the field."

Opposite Baihe River in Xinye City, Song Wang Yang Shilang, with Han Shizhong, Zong Ze, Pan Mei, Cao Bin and other military generals as the main force, Xu Shu as the military advisor, Zhang Yun and Wenpin as the governor of the navy, supporting Fancheng and resisting Wu Qi.

The Tang army's generals Guo Ziyi, Qin Qiong, Li Daozong met with Yang Shilang.

The Tang and Song dynasties confronted Wu Qi in the north of Fancheng.

The Wu army sent the guard Liu Renzhan to guard Fancheng.

Liu Renzhan is also a top guard.

The princes of Yizhou, Jingzhou and Yangzhou built almost impeccable defense lines, delayed the war, and wanted to force Chu Tian's finances to go bankrupt and then retreat.

The princes of the three states have basically the right ideas, and their defense is currently indestructible.

In Xiangfan alone, there are natural dangers such as Han River, Baihe, Xianshan, and Fancheng and Xiangyang are the corners of each other. Jingzhou Navy occupys the Han River and can support Fancheng in time.

Wancheng and Fancheng have first-class guards, and even Xinye has guards Wu Jie, and there are still many troops.

"It's not easy for Chu Zimou to break through such a line of defense."

When Yang Shiro faced Wu Qi, he focused on guarding and tried to avoid a decisive battle with Wu Qi.

The wars in Goryeo, Jianghuai, Xiangfan and Hanzhong fell to a standstill for a while.

Chutian was still invincible in the north, but in the south, after the terrain changed, the speed of implementation was obviously hindered.

On the battlefield of the Goryeo Kingdom, the two sides were tug of war in the mountains in the north of the Goryeo King City.

On the battlefield of the Jianghuai River, Tongque took the initiative to attack coastal counties. Sun Jian attacked Hefei, Shouchun, and the Xia army was unbearable.

On the battlefield of Xiangfan, many guards gathered, and the Han River blocked the Xia cavalry from taking straight to Xiangyang.

The battlefield in Hanzhong was surrounded by mountains, and the Xia army could only fight against the Shu army on the narrow mountain road.

The dangers of mountains and rivers are not just jokes.

If it were not for the dangers of mountains and rivers, the Three Kingdoms would not have confronted each other for many years, the Northern and Southern Dynasties would not have been formed, and the Southern Song Dynasty would not have been supported by the Mongolian cavalry for decades before it perished.

Chu Tian is looking for opportunities to break the deadlock, and the princes of the three southern states are waiting for Chu Tian's financial bankruptcy, or there may be changes in the north.

Both sides were in pain.
