Chapter 1: The Awakening of Shin Wang...

  Zhao Bangjie is the deputy leader of the righteous army and also the first to start the Five Horse Mountain Righteous Army. He can be considered a veteran of Zhao Chen's faction, so his doubts must be explained by Zhao Chen.

  "On the opposite side, our main force will soon launch an attack. Jin Bing won't let me keep fighting like this either." Zhao Chen explained to Zhao Bangjie.

  Then, Zhao Xun glared at Gao Baoshan with a fierce gaze and shouted: "Do I need to repeat the order?" Zhao Bangjie's scalp went numb, and he quickly turned his horse around and left.

  Pu's face was as still as stagnant water, silently gazing at the battlefield ahead. The two wings of the battle array had already unfolded and were engaged in fierce fighting. On the side where the righteous army was outnumbered, they fought fiercely. However, on the side with tens of thousands of righteous soldiers, there was a lot of thunder but little rain.

  The elite of the various righteous armies repeatedly clashed with the Jin army, not allowing their opponents to have a moment's rest. Although they lacked good battle formations and coordination, they were brave and fearless. The righteous armies were like wolves on the grasslands, fixating on the Jin army as their prey, biting down hard and refusing to let go, seeking every opportunity to launch an attack.

  After several pre-war mobilizations by Zhao Jun, the righteous army officers are now boiling with blood. They kill Jin soldiers, recover their homeland, and avenge their brothers and sisters. The Han people's blood is flowing in their bodies.

  Pu Jia Nu turned his face to look at Zhao Song's tens of thousands of main forces, and his eyebrows involuntarily furrowed. He didn't know the strength of the tens of thousands of troops in front of him now, but it seemed that the opponent's main force was not attacking, probably because they were a group of strong and brave soldiers without fighting power.

  But Pu Jia Nu did not dare to easily dispatch troops out of the formation to attack, because once his judgment was wrong, his 10,000 elite soldiers would thoroughly fail. Now he can still hold on, holding on until the righteous army's rear strength is exhausted.

  "Boom, boom..." Under Zhao's banner, in the battle formation of hundreds of thousands of righteous soldiers, the war drums sounded again. Like the previous three times, it was just a small group of barbarian soldiers and horses, which had no use other than to send them to their deaths.

  Facing the powerful army led by Zhao Kuang, the Jin army had only one battle formation. Five thousand people, each with their own duties, for the safety of the other side's soldiers, they couldn't move rashly. The righteous army charged up with just a few men, and after charging up, they focused on one place and fought fiercely. At this time, the other people in the Jin army's battle formation could only watch, anxious and helpless, unable to go up and assist. People next to them wanted to squeeze in but couldn't, each one suffocating with anxiety, having no choice.

  Facing the Yijun's despicable tactics, Pu Jia Nu now also has a sense of helplessness. In the first round of attack, a wave of chaotic arrows scared away the small team of Yijun, but that small team of Yijun was slaughtered by Song Dynasty's Xing Wang Zhao Chen in an instant. In the second round of attack, due to the carelessness of the Jin army, they encountered a team of desperate barbarian soldiers who charged up and chopped fiercely, resulting in over a hundred deaths and injuries among the Jin army.

  After a period of time, the righteous army was quiet, and the Jin army thought that these bandits would change their tactics. Who knew it was still the same old trick, another small team, and dozens of Jin soldiers were killed or injured again.

  After a long time, it was still a small team that came to charge the array, but this time with some adjustments, adding 100 people and charging the array with 200 people.

  "These Song people are too cunning." The Jin army's marching marshal reminded Pu Jiasou in a timely manner: "This is to drag out the time, it seems that they have tens of thousands of people, but they are probably all robust men. They want to wait for the elite vanguard of the righteous army on the other side to break through our flank before launching an attack."

  Upon hearing the words of the military commander, Pu Jia Nu turned his head to look at the other side of the battlefield. The vanguard of the righteous army was indeed fighting madly, with over 20,000 troops launching a fierce attack on the 5,000 Golden Army soldiers. The more they fought, the fiercer it became. The righteous army soldiers were like wolves with bloodshot eyes, fighting with all their might. On the other hand, the Golden Army soldiers had already become exhausted after suffering multiple rounds of attacks from several times their number of vanguard troops. Not only had their physical strength drastically decreased, but even their warhorses were no longer able to stand.

  If no measures are taken, the two thousand cavalry and three thousand infantry on the Jin army's flanks will be unable to withstand the rebel army's twenty thousand elite troops. Once the Jin army's flanks collapse, with the rebel army's current display of ferocity, they will surely swiftly break through the Jin army's formation, killing all the way to the central array, and in this way the Jin army will be doomed.

  "We must send them reinforcements." The marching marshal suggested: "Bring up the reserve cavalry, otherwise we won't be able to hold off the Song people's righteous army."

  Pu Jia Nu shook his head. The reserve cavalry was used to deal with the tens of thousands of main forces of the righteous army, which directly affected the outcome of this battle and could not be moved under any circumstances.

  "Lure the rebels in." Pu Jiasou raised his whip and pointed in the direction of what seemed to be the main force of the righteous army, saying: "The Song people are treacherous, these tens of thousands of people are probably just for show. Since the Song people are being deceitful, then we'll just play along. If a hundred or two people think they can take us down, then we'll fulfill their wishes and satisfy their desires."

  At this time, 200 soldiers of the Fan army charged forward and actually tore open a gap in the Jin army's battle formation. This was truly a miracle, as the Jin army was indeed exhausted and could no longer hold on.

  "Quickly, at once mobilize the great army, advance and attack, advance and attack..." At this time, Zhao Bangjie and Gao Baoshan were both anxious and impatient, especially Gao Baoshan, who had lost several hundred men and finally achieved some results, so he spoke more boldly.

  This is an opportunity, and it will be gone if we don't seize it. As long as we break through the Jin army's flank, we can deal a heavy blow to them. Once the Jin army's formation is disrupted, our main force can take advantage of the momentum to break through the other side, and the two armies will attack each other like giant pincers, left and right, and the Jin army will be completely finished.

  Zhao Zhuang looked up at the sky, not even bothering to acknowledge him. You're just a foolish foreigner who doesn't understand anything. Jin Jun's strength hasn't been fully utilized yet, and he was killed by just over 200 people? It's obvious that he was deceived. Now you think that with just over 5,000 militia here, you can break in and find death?

  Gao Bao Shan saw Zhao Kun ignoring him, shook his head and sighed. He thought to himself that this Prince of the Song Dynasty was really incompetent in battle, then he immediately thought: Forget it, let you do as you please, anyway I just need to bring you back alive, other things I won't bother with.

  At this time, Zhao Bangjie was about to persuade again, but suddenly he had a thought and felt that the Jin army in front of him was not quite right. The Jin army in front were all elite, and more than 20,000 loyalist troops launched a surprise attack on the flank of the Jin army, killing more than 5,000 people without winning a single battle. It is impossible to defeat the Jin army with just 200 people. Immediately afterwards, Zhao Bangjie felt that Xining Wang Qiansui was wise and had a very accurate judgment of the situation.

  It seems that this is obviously Jinbing's plan to lure the enemy, and as long as the righteous army rushes up, they will immediately suffer a head-on blow from the Jin army. At that time, more than 5,000 people against 5,000 Jin soldiers are definitely not their opponents. As long as one or two thousand cavalrymen of the Jin army charge forward, the tens of thousands of troops on display will immediately collapse like a mountain, and at that time, the righteous army will be completely finished.

  At this time a cavalryman came galloping up, just as he was about to speak, Zhao Ju shook his hand to stop him, and called him over to his side, Xinfeng Qian Sui leaned in, making it mysterious.

  "Are you all ready?" Zhao asked in a low voice. "Report to the palace, Your Majesty, everything is ready." "Good, good, not bad, not bad." Zhao was overjoyed. That Gao Yunfei really had a way, he's a talented person. For his father, he really got this thing done well. If it wasn't for him, this matter wouldn't have been handled so well, and after this battle, our army's losses would have been extremely severe. From now on, we won't be able to fight again.

  "Go back and tell Gao Yunfei, wait for my signal later. Once I throw down the big flag, he can start. Tell him that his father and son's lives are in my hands, don't take any initiative on their own. Make it clear to him, got it?"

  That cavalryman made Zhao Xun very nervous, his head nodding like a chicken pecking at rice. "Hmmm! Don't worry, Lord Qian. I'll definitely deliver the message." With that, the cavalryman galloped away swiftly.

  Zhao Song furrowed his brow, gazing out at the distant battlefield. The two hundred troops in front had already fallen into the Jin army's large formation, and it seemed that the plan to lure the enemy had not succeeded, as the Jin army had filled in the gap again and was now surrounding and killing them from all sides.

  Zhao Kui summoned two generals under Gao Baosong, Xiao Deli of the Khitan tribe and Gan Duduo of the Xi people, to his side. He said to them: "You just saw that the Jin army can't hold on, and was torn open by 200 soldiers. So I plan to have you two lead 400 men to charge into battle, tear open the Jin army's flank formation, and wait for the enemy formation to break. Then I'll lead the main cavalry force to charge up and thoroughly destroy the Jin army's flank."

  Gan Guo didn't say anything, it's a calamity that can't be avoided. It seems that today this life will be given to Xing Wang Qian Sui's hands. Xiao De Li asked: "Qian Sui! When do we start the attack?"

  Zhao Song raised his head to glance at the sky, then looked towards the battlefield on the other side of the Jin army. Faced with the several times larger rebel army's charge, the five thousand Jin soldiers still had a majestic momentum, resisting the rebel army. They showed no signs of retreat or fear.

  The previous battle, Zhao Ke sucked in a breath of cold air. These Jin soldiers are so fierce! No wonder the vast Liao State's million-strong army was defeated and destroyed in just over a decade. The Jurchen people are indeed extremely formidable in battle, each one as fierce as a tiger.

  "Wait a little longer," Zhao Yun said, "when the sun is about to set, you can attack." The main general of the Jin army, Pu Jia Nu, looked at the distant array of tens of thousands of righteous troops, feeling both helpless and enraged.

  The main force of the righteous army opposite, simply does not fight, it is clear that tens of thousands of people are probably not soldiers, but a group of young civilians who will collapse with one blow. Sending troops to attack the tens of thousands of people opposite, and fearing that the cunning Song Dynasty's Xin Wang has some ambushes, if they fall for it, they will lose everything. Now they can only fight with their lives on the line.

  Looking at the other wing, the vanguard of the righteous army has already achieved results. The golden army's battle array on the wing is precarious. Once the wing is breached, more than 20,000 elite soldiers of the righteous army will join forces with tens of thousands of people from the opposite side to charge over, and they will surely be defeated.

  Pu Jia Nu decided to take the initiative and launch a surprise attack, as the tens of thousands of troops on the opposite side who were holding their positions motionless might be the main force of the righteous army. On one hand, he wanted to see how many elite troops the enemy had left; on the other hand, he aimed to lure the enemy in deep and then strike a crushing blow at the tens of thousands of righteous soldiers, thus achieving victory.

  The time left for Pu Zhong was indeed limited, and on the other hand, under the continuous attack of more than 20,000 elite soldiers, his own left wing became increasingly difficult. If the Jin army's left wing was breached by the elite soldiers, he would have to call upon all the cavalry on the right wing to counterattack the elite soldiers. But in doing so, the Jin army and the elite soldiers who were entangled together would be mixed up in battle, and the Jin army would not have any reserve troops.

  Facing the Jin army in a chaotic melee, without formation coordination and cover, once the tens of thousands of brave soldiers from the opposing side took advantage of the situation and launched a fierce attack, it would be easy to defeat the Jin army with just ten or so men against one. The Jin army's defeat is certain.

  Pu Jia Nu swung his whip and two columns of golden cavalry burst out of the Golden Army's camp, charging straight into the battle formation of tens of thousands of righteous troops opposite them.

  "The cavalry regiment's long spearmen, two wings welcome the battle." The command flag waved, and the Imperial Guard Regiment's long spearmen quickly rushed out from both sides of the rebel army's formation, killing them head-on.

  The Golden Riders intended to lure the enemy, but their numbers were limited and they did not dare to leave their formation too far. The Imperial Guards' long spear troops aimed to intercept the Golden Riders and delay time. Both sides fought in one place, coming and going, looking very lively, but actually neither side used much force.

  Both sides "crackling" fought for a while, the Golden Army's light cavalry pretended to be defeated and retreated into the formation. The long spear soldiers of the Imperial Guard also returned to their camp one after another, and the Righteous Army fell silent again.

  Pu Jia Nu looked up at the sunset on the horizon, his heart burning with anxiety. Once night fell, facing tens of thousands of righteous troops, their situation would be even more unfavorable.

  "Beat the drums..." Zhao Xun suddenly shouted. "Prepare to charge into battle."

  Suddenly, the war drums were like thunder, the bugle horns sounded long and loud, the banners fluttered, people shouted and horses neighed, the righteous army was in motion. The Khitan general Xiao Deli and the Xi general Gan Guduo each led 200 infantrymen, quickly rushing out of the battle formation, lining up at the front.

  Zhao Jun kicked his horse's belly, the warhorse let out a long whinny and charged straight into the enemy lines. "Wang Jin, lead your personal guard battalion, prepare to attack and kill the Jin soldiers." Wang Jin bowed and said: "For the sake of our lord's thousand-year-old dynasty, we will fight to the death and never retreat."

  "Kill..." Two hundred elite soldiers, in a deafening roar, like tigers descending from the mountain, charged forward with a fierce battle cry. The Khitan general Xiao Deli and the Kumo general Gan Guduo led their troops, advancing without hesitation.

  "Kill the Golden Dog……!" "Blood Battle……!" Tens of thousands of people shouted in unison, a huge roar rose up in waves, like a howling storm, sweeping towards the enemy's position. In an instant, the battle cry pierced the sky.

  The loud shout of killing, made the Pu family slaves hear and secretly shocked. Just from the morale, the Jin army had already lost, this was something that he had never encountered in years. Since invading the Song Dynasty, he had almost every year suppressed the Song army and various righteous armies, encountering only a mob, winning with one blow.

  However, today's Xin Wang and his righteous army made themselves feel the fear of defeat. This Xin Wang of the Song Dynasty is far more capable than his incompetent father and useless elder brother, and even stronger than that boneless Kang Wang Zhao Gou from the south. With just one person's power, he stirred up a shocking storm, gathering the strength of tens of thousands of people in the midst of thunderous shouts, stirring up hatred, fearless and fearless, vowing to fight to the death. Given time, this man will become a great threat to the heart of the Jin State.

  Today, we must kill him and destroy the Xing Wang Yi Jun. Otherwise, once this Xing Wang becomes powerful, the Jin State will have a very formidable opponent.

  "On the other side. 'Attack, full attack...' Ma Zheng, who was commanding the elite troops of the righteous army, was directing various forces to launch a full-scale attack on the flank of the Jin army. The current situation is very favorable for the righteous army, as long as they quickly break through the Jin army's flank and advance into the Jin army's central army, this battle will be won."

  "Sound the horn......!" On the other side of the Golden Army, Marshal Ma gave the order to retreat and regroup, preparing for another attack. He drew his battle sword from his waist and shouted loudly: "Advance and kill...!"

  Hundreds of bugle horns sounded one after another, and within a short period of time, the armies led by Liu Xijun, Wu Fengjun, and Liu Sange, as well as Zhang Ying's Zhao Family Army and Zhao Qing'er's Xinwang Guard Cavalry Regiment all reassembled. The vanguard troops were majestic and powerful, like tigers, sweeping away the remnants of the enemy like a whirlwind, charging straight into the Golden Array.

  The Khitan general Xiao Deli and the Xi general Gan Guduo led 400 cavalrymen in a frenzied charge into the enemy ranks, cutting down anyone in their path. At this point, the various cavalry units accelerated their pace, dividing into three contingents that formed a triangular shape like three sharp blades charging forward with an awe-inspiring momentum.

  "Boom......" Zhao Qing'er led the Xinfeng Imperial Guard Cavalry Regiment to charge forward first, wielding swords and arrows, killing indiscriminately. "Dong dong......" The Jin army's war drums thundered loudly.

  The retreating Liao army infantry suddenly accelerated their pace and quickly gathered into several human walls. The Jin army's battle array also contracted, the square formation changed, and row after row of Jin soldiers picked up their weapons and fought with the righteous army together.

  "Wooo...! Wooo...!" The riverbank, the charging horn sounded back and forth, row upon row of cavalry burst out like a broken dam, rushing forward with a loud roar, their momentum fierce. The ground began to shake violently, the thunderous sound of hooves shook one's eardrums, two thousand golden armored cavalry covered the sky and earth, stirring up a massive wave, charging towards the righteous army's eight thousand cavalry and over ten thousand infantry like a storm.

  "Qian sui, issue the general attack order?" At this time, Wang Jin's eyes were red, and he asked in a loud voice. He was worried that Zhao Chen would be injured, and he followed closely behind him. Zhao Chen had been running with his long spear for half a day, but hadn't killed a single enemy.

  Zhao Yun raised his long spear and shouted to Wang Jin: "Abandon my commander's flag, sound the gong to retreat. The whole army is fleeing, hurry up...!"

  When Wang Jin heard Zhao Song's order, he was stunned. The difference between before and after is too big, right? Just now you were shouting loudly in front of the formation, boosting morale, getting everyone's blood boiling, preparing to fight the Jin army to the death. As a result, we haven't even charged into the Jin army's formation yet, and you're ordering us to retreat?

  When Zhao Kuang ran to the side of the flag bearer, he shouted again: "Didn't you hear my order? Throw away my big flag, quickly, quickly...!" The flag bearer didn't dare to throw it away originally, but when he heard the king's order, he felt a strange sense of gratitude. What a good king! He knew that I was running too slowly with this big flag, what a great king for his T-shirt soldiers! "Plop", he threw away the big flag and followed Zhao Kuang to run.

  "Retreat, retreat..." Zhao Xun urged his horse to run faster and shouted loudly. "Sound the gong to recall the troops, hurry up and run, all the big flags have been abandoned, abandon them all for me."

  Qian Sui ordered a retreat, and in the blink of an eye, the retreat bugle sounded across the battlefield. The armies of Liu Xijun, Wu Fengjun, and Liu Sangge, as well as Zhang Ying's Zhao family army, Zhao Qing'er's Sheng Wang Qinbing war horse camp, and on another front, tens of thousands of strong men, Wang Jin's Sheng Wang Qinbing infantry camp, and the Fan Bing troops all retreated.

  All the righteous army retreated while throwing away their war flags. As soon as the war flags of the righteous army disappeared, all the tens of thousands of righteous army "hula" ran away.

  "Haha! Heaven is helping me! Beat the drums! Beat the drums to boost morale......!" Pu Jia Nu saw the various righteous armies suddenly fleeing in disarray, and was overjoyed. He immediately gave orders: "Pursue them, slaughter those Song pigs at will...!"
