Chapter 267 Mire

As the sun rose, a black flag appeared at the end of the road. Several soldiers excitedly reminded Juanhou: The main force of the Northern Army has arrived to support.

Cui Teng had nothing bad to do, and he actually rushed back in time. Han Ruzi thanked him from the bottom of his heart. Before the victory or defeat was decided, he would first write down a great achievement for Cui Teng in his heart.

There was a depression behind the camp, which slowly rose upwards. The black flag looked very close, but in fact there was still a distance, but Han Ruzi couldn't wait.

The battlefield ahead was only two or three miles away, almost in front of him. The chaos brought by the night was dissipating. Even though the barriers between Suwei and Cui Taifu's Southern Army still gradually gained an advantage. The Southern Army of Juehou's Southern Army was far from the number to the fighting spirit.

In order to distinguish it from Cui Taifu's Southern Army, the soldiers of Juehou's Southern Army were wrapped in black cloth on their arms and were retreating step by step at this moment. Han Ruzi could not blame this army. They had only been under Juehou's command for a few days, and they were willing to rush into the battlefield for him, and they had already shown extremely rare loyalty.

Therefore, Han Ruzi could no longer be outside the battlefield.

He could not wait any longer, because he knew that the black flags behind him were just bluffs, and wanted to make all parties on the battlefield believe that this was really the main force of the Northern Army. First of all, he had to believe it himself, and he could not give everyone too much time to observe and consider.

Han Ruzi ordered the last group of soldiers in the camp to join the battle, including more than 2,000 Northern Army and the same number of Southern Army, with a total of less than 5,000 people, and he personally led the team.

The deer antler bar that was prepared for a long time was useless and had been pushed to both sides of the road.

Han Ruzi held the reins in one hand and the knife in the other. Dozens of flag-raising soldiers followed closely behind him, and other soldiers were behind him. His goal was very direct, which was to rush to the north city gate. As for whether the goal could be achieved, he didn't care or consider it.

At first, he was a little anxious and couldn't help but want to speed up. He even stared at the flag of an enemy general from a distance and wanted to rush over to fight. However, the soldiers behind him were more experienced than the young Juehou. After running not far, more than a dozen flag soldiers surpassed Juehou and ran in front, deliberately slowing down the speed, getting closer and closer to the battlefield, and more and more soldiers were ahead.

This is not the special treatment of Juehou. The Southern and Northern Army are elite troops with strict training. The Northern Army has a less famous reputation and its combat power is still stronger than the ordinary Chu army. Protecting the commander and military flag is one of their most important training contents.

Han Ruzi participated in such a large-scale battle for the first time and didn't understand many rules. She once wanted to surpass the soldiers in front, but was surrounded by flag soldiers under her command and could not accelerate.

After rushing into the battlefield, Han Ruzi understood why. From a distance, the battlefield was all in his eyes. Once he was in it, there were people and war horses everywhere. Not to mention the target, it was difficult to distinguish between the south, south, west and north. He could only fight in a melee. After dawn, everyone was looking for flags. The more experienced soldiers, the faster they got closer.

"The Northern Army has arrived! Occupy the city gate!" Han Ruzi shouted over and over again, and the soldiers around him shouted louder.

Apart from the flag, Han Ruzi could not see anything. The horses under his foot were completely wrapped up and moved forward. They could not be fast or stopped. The sounds that came into his ears became louder and louder. Various sounds merged together, and he could only hear the word "Northern Army".

Han Ruzi, who could not see the enemy, suddenly had an idea. This battle would definitely be famous in history. He just didn't know how the history books would record it. The troops and results were best written, and blood and screams were easy to describe. However, he had never read these chaos, anxiety and confusion in history books.

Among the emperors of the Great Chu Dynasty, only Taizu had personally experienced several defeats, and they were defeats, and they often fled alone. However, in historical books, all of these defeats were understandable: Taizu used himself as bait to attract the main army of Zhao, and other generals under his command could achieve victory after victory, gradually closed the net, and eventually forced the King of Zhao, who had won consecutive battles and won in a desperate situation.

Han Ruzi has always doubted whether Taizu was really so far-sighted.

Han Ruzi retracted his useless thoughts. The soldiers in front were stopped. The soldiers in other directions also retracted. Countless horses squeezed together, raised their heads and neighed, and stomped uneasily, unable to take a step.

What he saw in his eyes was still just a flag. Han Ruzi held up the knife, but there was nowhere to fall, as if he was trapped in a mud. The more he struggled, the faster he fell.

The pressure from the right suddenly increased. Han Ruzi turned her head and looked, and through the gaps in her flag, she saw a truly vicious evil spirit.

Looking at the clothes, he should be a general of the Guard Army. His people and horses were tall, quite eye-catching among the chaotic army. He had a chaotic beard and could not see his true face. His body was covered with blood. He didn't know how long he had been fighting, but he was not tired at all and rushed around the crowd.

The weapons in his hand were different from ordinary soldiers. They were neither swords nor guns, but a long axe, which had been dyed red by blood and was still extremely sharp, otherwise he would have been extremely strong, and wherever the axe passed, people would be overturned.

"Protect the lord!" the soldiers shouted, and rushed over to block the axe-holding general.

Han Ruzi was once forced into a dead end by the Huns. The scene at that time was far less thrilling than at this time. The axe seemed to be right in front of him and would chop him up on his head the next moment.

Han Ruzi was no longer afraid. He held the knife in his hand tighter and let out a roar from his chest. He had exhausted all his strength, but the sound was drowned in the sounds around him.

Dozens of soldiers fought to the death to stop them, and the axe-holding general was forced to turn and quickly disappeared into the crowd.

Han Ruzi felt disappointed.

The soldiers of his side surrounded Jue again, but they still couldn't move forward and could not retreat.

Han Ruzi could not see the changes in the situation on the battlefield, nor could she expect what was about to happen.

The first person to see the flag of the Northern Army was not the soldiers under Han Ruzi, but the generals of the Guards standing on the city wall to supervise the battle. Everyone was shocked. The flags in the distance were dense, like a moving black flood, which meant that the main force of the Northern Army had arrived, at least 80,000 people, and there might be more. Their arrival would completely change the situation on the battlefield.

"The Northern Army cannot come so quickly."

"It is said that Juanhou has already dispatched troops and has not come very quickly."

"Go and notify General Shangguan."

"It seems that there is no order in the palace for a while."

The generals of the Suwei Army were talking a lot. When they saw Juehou's flag entering the battlefield, they became more and more frightened. They made excuses to leave one by one. In the end, they didn't even need excuses and ran away.

The general led the way, the flag fell, and the city wall became empty, and the soldiers of the Guards outside the city were still unaware of the situation and were still fighting.

Cui Taifu's Southern Army did not all participate in the war, and a group of generals watched the battle on a high ground outside the court. Under the reminder of the guards, they also saw the black flags in the distance.

The generals of the Southern Army were not so scared, so they sent people to inform the Grand Tutor Cui, and sent scouts to check the enemy situation, and then arranged the remaining backup troops to fight with the main force of the Northern Army. Their plan was to take advantage of the distance between the Northern Army and wait for the effort to defeat them in one fell swoop.

If the generals of the Guards on the city wall had not disappeared without a trace, the generals of the Southern Army would have probably realized their plans, but they found that friendly forces were actually collapsed, and the generals of the Southern Army began to be scared.

The scout soon brought news, and according to their observation, it was indeed the main force of the Northern Army.

The black flags in the north were getting closer and closer, and they were endless on the official road and could soon arrive. Before the orders of Taifu Cui had arrived, the generals of the Southern Army had to take their own initiative.

They decided to preserve their strength. The coach was not present at the scene. This was the safest and most reasonable choice, at least more responsible than the generals of the Suwei Army who escaped in the last battle.

There was a three-way melee, and among the several coaches, only Han Ruzi personally supervised the battle, so he was the only one who really dared to take the bets and persisted, and even joined the battle himself.

Shangguan Sheng and Donghai Neptune also wanted to make a gamble, but they were "throwing" others, and they were still "throwing" in the rear.

The Southern Army general Ming Jin withdrew his troops, and their "reasonable decision" dealt a fatal blow to the battlefield.

Although the generals of the Suwei Army fled, they were silent and were not discovered by the soldiers on the battlefield for a while. The battle was still going on, but the Southern Army's order to withdraw troops attracted the attention of almost everyone.

The soldiers looked back and this glance caused even greater chaos.

The soldiers of the Guards, who were fighting bloody, found that the generals and flags supervising the battle were gone, and immediately their fighting spirit disappeared. They did not see the black flags coming. They took it for granted that something big happened in the city, and only had one thought left in their minds, to escape from the battlefield and escape as far as possible.

The soldiers of the Guards did not flee to the city, but dispersed to the east and west sides.

The soldiers of the Southern Army were also panicked. They heard the sound of retreating soldiers and did want to retreat, but were stopped by the more urgent Guards and fell into a dilemma of being unable to advance or retreat.

Han Ruzi, trapped in the middle of the battlefield, suddenly moved again. He heard the sound of gold. He did not understand its meaning at that time, nor did he find that the enemy was retreating. He still shouted: "The Northern Army has arrived! Occupy the city gate!"

The paused army continued to advance, and it became faster and faster, like a spear piercing through the ice, without any resistance after entering the water.

It was not until he rushed through the moat and entered the city gate that Han Ruzi was surprised to find that he had actually rushed in.

Nearly 100,000 people were fighting together, and it was not easy to separate. The outside of the city was still in chaos, even more chaotic than at the beginning.

Han Ruzi hesitated for a while in the city gate and suddenly realized that this was a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity. Since he entered the city, he could not go out again.

He immediately called the two nearest generals, one of whom led his troops to guard the city gate and could not be thrown to the enemy army anymore, the other led his troops to the city wall, erected the flags of Juanhou and the Northern Army as soon as possible, and he himself took the remaining soldiers straight to the palace.

The more chaotic the outside of the city, the quieter the inside. From generals and ministers to civilians, they all hid at home honestly. There were many nobles in the north city, all of which were deep courtyards and the gates were closed particularly closely.

Han Ruzi rode a horse across the familiar street, with only two or three thousand soldiers following him.

The palace was right in front of it, and the north gate was actually open and there was no guard. Han Ruzi's first reaction was not joy, but a surprise and rushed into the palace quickly.

Dozens of corpses were lying on the ground, and a large area of ​​blood stained red. To be continued
