Chapter 48 - Defeat
Zhe Yanwen, Zhe Yanzhi rushed over to Zhe Keqiu's side, only to see his father's bloodshot eyes;
"Father, what happened? You're in such a hurry for us to come over? " Zhe Yanwen said.
"Nvzhen is only half a day away from us!" Zhe Keqiu said.
"What!" Zhe Yanwen and Zhe Yanzhi were both shocked.
If the Nvzhen were to rush up, I'm afraid that all one hundred fifty thousand of our Home Breaker s would be annihilated! Tell me, what do you think we should do now? " Zhe Keqiu said.
"Father, we can only send people to stop the Jin Army!" Zhe Yanwen thought for a moment, then said.
"Stop the Jin Army? Who am I sending to stop Jin Army? Who can stop Jin Army? " Zhe Keqiu asked.
"This …" Zhe Yanwen was also speechless for a moment.
"Father, brother, I am willing to lead troops to stop Jin Army! As long as you give me 50,000 people, I will block the true female army! Father, Big Brother, you should bring the remaining one hundred thousand people and enter the Middle Han Area. Zhe Yanzhi suddenly stood up and said.
"Nonsense, you can do things that even Yao Gu and the other teachers can't do, can you?" Zhe Keqiu said.
"Father, at that time, he was already very old. As an old man in his seventies, it is unavoidable for him to be confused by the use of weapons. As for Yao Gu, we have obtained accurate information. The Nvzhen attacked the Chang'an City by surprise, which was why they were able to take down Zhang An in one go, and then set up an ambush, which was why the Yao Army was completely annihilated! What they can't do, it's not impossible for us Home Breaker! Furthermore, even if I am defeated, if we can delay the Jin Army, and Father and Big Brother can reach a safe place, it would be worth it! " Zhe Yanzhi said.
"This... "Let me think!" Zhe Keqiu anxiously walked around the ground, and only after a long while did he finally nod his head and say: "I'll listen to you! Remember, if you cannot stop the Jin Army, you don't need to care about those ordinary soldiers.
Zhe Yanzhi nodded: "Of course, I am a son of the Zhuo Family, just how precious is my identity! If I can't, then I will naturally not be with those lowly soldiers. As a Xiantian master, I will naturally escape to my father's side. "
Only then did Zhe Keqiu relax, and said: "Prepare yourself, you can go now! I need to get the rest of the people to continue their journey immediately! This time, if they do not leave, I will use my bow and arrow to urge them to leave! "
The military discipline in Western Army was chaotic, and the efficiency was extremely low! After an entire two hours, the Home Breaker was split into two, with Zhe Keqiu bringing a hundred thousand people to continue forward, while Zhe Yanzhi brought the remaining fifty thousand to stop the Jin Army!
Zhe Yanzhi was still standing at the top of the hill. Seeing his father leaving with the whole troop, not only did he not feel any fear, he was actually very excited!
Yeah, how could he not be excited? In his opinion, it was time for Zhe Yanzhi to become famous!
Although he was a great general of the Western Army and was once a high official of the Yellow River, everyone knew that it was because of his surname. It was not because of his talent, nor was it because of his illustrious achievements! On the contrary, not only did he not gain any battle merits, he had even "escaped while listening to the beat of the drum" and "escaped while the wind". It was very likely that no one in this world had any respect for him!
"Heh, what Nvzhen, Barbarian! My Zhuo Family is the number one family in the Northwest. As a descendant of a noble family, how could I not be a group of barbarians? The reason why and the other teachers were not a match for the barbarians was because they were incompetent! I, Zhe Yanzhi, however, am not as useless as they are! Today, I've defeated the female army, and in the future, my name will spread far and wide! At that time, even if the heavens do not order the dukes around, no one will dare to underestimate me, Zhe Yanzhi! I, Zhe Yanzhi, am the strongest general in the world! Come on, immediately head east, we will face the Nvzhen, and I will lead you all to defeat them! " He laughed.
Originally, Home Breaker Soldiers did not rest for one day and one night. Zhe Keqiu told him to stop the Jin Army, and before leaving, he instructed the soldiers to let him rest first. But now, he actually ignored Zhe Keqiu's orders and rushed the soldiers in the direction of the Nvzhen, wanting to defeat the Nvzhen head on!
Fifty thousand Home Breaker Soldiers s, if one were to look from afar, would seem vast and mighty. At this moment, they were all heading towards the east!
Countless of soldiers could no longer walk, and Zhe Yanzhi was the one leading the supervising team to the back, holding a bow and arrows in their hands, they madly shot forward, and those who were slow instantly got shot to death! The soldiers in front had no choice but to advance forward with all their might!
Some soldiers were already vomiting blood. As they fell onto the ground, their comrades had already stepped on their bodies. A moment later, the soldiers had turned into a pool of blood!
The soldiers did not have any fighting spirit, they were not willing to go forward, they were not willing to fight with the ferocious Nvzhen, but under Zhe Yanzhi's orders, they could only go forward!
"General, we've heard the sound of horses' hooves!" An assistant general came to Zhe Yanzhi's side and asked nervously.
"Good!" That's great! Quick, let the soldiers charge! Pass my order, whoever kills the Jin Army general will be rewarded with 10,000 gold! " Zhe Yanzhi laughed.
He had never seen the general of the Jin Army give such an arrogant order at this moment! The assistant general at the side was at a loss for words, but he did not dare disobey Zhe Yanzhi's orders, and immediately passed down his order!
At such a moment, even the so called "ten thousand taels of gold" would not attract the Home Breaker Soldiers at all!
They were urged forward, but no matter how they looked at it, this team didn't have much combat power! ordered the supervising team to move forward again, and the soldiers were forced to rush up once again.
The sounds of horses galloping in the distance grew closer and closer, and gradually, they saw the Jin Army's team!
The Home Breaker Soldiers in front of them revealed a look of indescribable shock. They were soldiers, it was not as if they had never fought with enemies before! Some of them were already fifty or sixty years old, and had also fought with the Western Xia Army before. But how could the Western Xia Army have the same heaven blocking aura as the Nvzhen?
It was as if everything before his eyes had disappeared, leaving behind only the unparalleled cavalry!
The Jin Army got closer and closer, three kilometers … One mile … Half a mile …
Finally, the two teams clashed!
There was no suspense at all. Like a torrent, Jin Army's speed did not slow down in the slightest, and the opposing Home Breaker was completely drowned out!
Miserable screams could be heard everywhere, it was just that these screams were all made by the Home Breaker Soldiers!
Fifty thousand Home Breaker s were not even able to withstand a single blow. The moment they came into contact with each other, they began to suffer defeat!
In front of them was the vanguard team of the Jin Army, with only 1000 people, yet these 1000 people were chasing and fighting the 50,000 people!
"Young General, the situation is bad. Let's hurry up and evacuate!" The deputy general came to Zhe Yanzhi's side and asked anxiously.
"How is this possible? How is this possible? I am the world's number one general. Today should be the day I become famous, but how did I lose? How is that possible? " Zhe Yanzhi muttered to himself as his eyes lost focus.
"Young General, let's go!" The deputy general was extremely anxious!
"Go!" Right, hurry up and go! We cannot die here! " Zhe Yanzhi said in fear.
He brought a few high-ranking officers and headed towards the west. The supervising troops were mostly cavalry, so he followed behind them. As for the fifty thousand Home Breaker, he did not care about them anymore! He allowed the fifty thousand Home Breaker Soldiers s to fend for themselves! In his heart, not even all those lowly soldiers added up were more important than a single strand of his hair!
In less than an hour, the battle had ended!
Behind him, another large group of Jin Army s caught up, and the one leading them was Jin Wushu!
"Fourth Prince, should we continue chasing after these Song Army!" Han Chang said.
"Did you find out the whereabouts of the Crown Prince of the Great Song Dynasty?" Jin Wushu said.
"Crown Prince of the Great Song Dynasty is heading towards Middle Han Area!" Han Chang said.
"Don't chase them, we need to catch up to Crown Prince of the Great Song Dynasty immediately! Only by killing Crown Prince of the Great Song Dynasty can we make a huge contribution! " Jin Wushu said.
He originally only had ten thousand troops under his command, but a few days ago, Wanyan Loushi arrived with thirty thousand soldiers and horses. Now, he had thirty thousand soldiers and horses under his command!
At this moment, he was no longer chasing after the scattered Home Breaker Soldiers, but was bringing thirty thousand strong army to chase after them!
