Destroy Jin and conquer Song, and carry the Northern Expedition through to the end

Chapter 471 The Young Man's Courage and Vigor

"Hahaha, this Wanyan Yuanyi is truly loyal."

Liu Huai, who had already shared a flag with Zhang Baiyu, looked at a group of armored cavalry separating from the Weisheng Army and heading towards the center of the battlefield. He smacked his lips and smiled at Zhang Baiyu beside him.

No one would have thought that the murderer who killed Wanyan Liang in history would actually send all the armored cavalry to support Wanyan Liang at this time, so that the Weisheng Army was left with nothing behind.

This is the irony of history.

The butterfly effect is real, and you never know when it will open your eyes.

Zhang Baiyu ignored Liu Huai's laughter and said sternly, "Leave this place to us. I hope the commander-in-chief can return to the central army to take charge of the overall situation!"

Liu Huai shook his head and ordered the 300 armored cavalrymen who had just followed him to attack to change horses. He then said to Zhang Baiyu, "Xin Wulang is commanding very well. We have only one path forward and we just keep charging forward. How could we go wrong? Now we have more important things to do!"

Zhang Baiyu was in high spirits: "Please give the order, Commander-in-Chief!"

Liu Huai pointed his spear at the official road between the large and small camps on Guishan Mountain and said, "All Flying Tigers, come together and rescue Cheng Min!"

"Here!"

Although Wanyan Liang had regarded Cheng Min as a dead man after the Beiwei Army was defeated and its two wings were held hostage, Cheng Min was not dead at this time.

It would have been fine if he hadn't died, the key point was that Cheng Min hadn't escaped yet. He was still waving a big flag in the formation, struggling and galloping, trying to gather more Beiwei troops.

As a general of Jianjie, Cheng Min still has some dignity to maintain and would not do the cowardly act of abandoning his troops and fleeing.

It was thanks to Cheng Min's persistence that the Beiwei Army and even the entire Ezhou Army were able to hold out until now despite being suppressed.

Liu Huai's strategy of leading the cavalry to rescue Cheng Min was a strategy that killed several birds with one stone.

Firstly, although the Beiwei army suffered heavy losses, there were still more than a thousand soldiers fighting stubbornly. If they were rescued, they would be a considerable fighting force.

Secondly, we can't just sit back and watch Cheng Min get captured and killed. His ability to hold on until now has exceeded many people's expectations. Cheng Min's situation is already precarious, and if we don't help him, he might really be in danger.

Thirdly, it can also put pressure on the flanks of the Weisheng Army. If the Weisheng Army's formation is slightly disorganized, Liu Huai will dare to press forward directly and give Wanyan Yuanyi a big surprise.

Fourthly, and most importantly, once the Jin troops on the official road were cleared, the Wuping and Weisheng armies would be separated into two groups, north and south, completely unable to communicate with each other. Wanyan Alin would also be surrounded on all sides.

With this idea in mind, Liu Huai ordered the cavalry to prepare their formation and sweep westward along the highway.

Although Hezhameng'an was an elite force, he was already exhausted after fighting hard with the Beiwei army.

Not to mention that Wanyan Liang also gathered a large number of troops to raid Yu Yunwen. Heza Meng'an, who had lost his organization and charge speed, was quickly defeated under the charge of the Flying Tiger Army and was driven westward in defeat.

Many of Heza Meng'an's cavalry were fully or partially armored, and both men and horses were heavily armored. Although the men could still hold on at this point in the battle, the horses had long been exhausted.

Hezhameng'an, who followed Wanyan Liang to withdraw from the battle, still had time to change his horses. However, the Jin army that was fighting with the Beiwei army did not have such leisure time, so many Hezhameng'an were now in a state of fighting on foot.

The Heza Meng'an who were fighting on foot were the most miserable. Although this place was an official road, its width was limited. The Heza Meng'an were fighting in various places and could not form a formation at all.

However, even the strongest individuals were powerless against the massed charge of armored cavalry. Without a solid formation, even the bravest Jin soldiers could only die in despair, trampled by the horses.

As for the infantrymen who came to support from the Weisheng Army and the Wuping Army, they were in even worse condition. They had been fighting for many days and were already exhausted. Now, facing such a dense formation of cavalry, they had no idea how many people had arrived.

After the commander Meng'an was stabbed to death by Liu Huai, nearly ten Mouke's infantrymen instantly collapsed and ran westward in panic.

Liu Huai gathered wave after wave of Beiwei troops and ordered them to ride their horses and charge behind him.

The Flying Tigers trampled on the enemy everywhere. Facing the enemy who had already fled and exposed their backs to them, this battle was no longer a fight, but a killing.

In the melee of expulsion, Liu Huai also saw Cheng Min from afar.

After all, Cheng Min was a general who had been famous for a long time. At this time, he did not need Liu Huai's instructions at all. He directly led the more than 200 cavalrymen he had gathered to fight back and forth, creating tactical space for Liu Huai.

Once Cheng Min began to fight desperately, the Jin army's formation became even more disorganized. Liu Huai was able to lead over a hundred armored cavalrymen to charge directly in front of Cheng Min, casually killing a marching Mouke. The separated Jin army had no room for resistance and was beaten and fled by Zhang Baiyu who arrived later.

"General Cheng, the war is dangerous, so I won't be polite." Liu Huai took Cheng Min's reins and asked directly, "How many Beiwei troops can we gather now?"

Cheng Min panted heavily, looked back and looked around for a while: "There are less than a thousand people who can fight!"

"Everyone gather! Don't wear vests, there's no need to break the formation next!" Liu Huai took off his helmet, wiped the blood from his head, and shouted, "Follow me, clear the road first, and separate the north and the south."

"Why not defeat Wanyan Alin first?" Cheng Min was stunned.

"Someone's already gone over there!" Liu Huai pointed to the Qingsi flag next to the Jingnan flag and said proudly, "It's none other than our brave general Xin Qiji!"

Before Liu Huai finished speaking, he discovered with some embarrassment that the Jingnan army at the foot of the mountain had not yet achieved any success, while Chen Min's troops on the mountain had moved first.

"Captain, I've brought the man back!"

"Let me go! Let me go!"

A burly man grabbed the edge of Bi Zaiyu's armor and dragged him in front of Chen Min regardless of his struggle.

Chen Min was not riding a horse or even standing at this time. He was just sitting upright on a mat in a relatively high position where he could be seen by the entire army.

Although Bi Zaiyu was young and short, he was very strong. The man dragging him didn't dare to hurt him, so he could only walk in a halting, crooked manner.

Chen Min tried hard to sit up straight, took his eyes off the battle and focused them on Bi Zaiyu.

Bi Zaiyu was now covered in blood. His shoulder pad and helmet were gone, and a wound about an inch long on his forehead was bleeding profusely. Several arrows were stuck in his armor, but it looked like they hadn't hurt his flesh. The long machete in his hand was already pitted and had a saw-like edge.

"This kid has gone crazy with killing. He doesn't listen to anyone's orders on the front line...Ah!!!" The big man had just said one sentence when Bi Zaiyu turned around and hit him in the chest and abdomen with his elbow. Although he was wearing armor, he was caught off guard and his big hand that was grabbing the armor immediately let go.

Bi Zaiyou was like a hungry beast, making a humming sound in his throat, staring with bloodshot eyes, picking up his broadsword and rushing towards the Jin army at the foot of the mountain again.

"Deqing! Come here!" Chen Min sat upright without moving, just calling out loudly.

After all, he was an elder who had fought side by side with him for many days. After hearing Chen Min's words, Bi Zaiyu sobered up a little and stopped.

"Come here..." Chen Min said with a smile.

When Bi Zaiyu staggered over, Chen Min suddenly raised his hand and slapped Bi Zaiyu hard in the face.

Bi Zaiyou lost his balance and fell to the ground, his machete slipping out of his hand.

Afterwards, Bi Zaiyu did not stand up, but lay on the ground, covering his face and crying loudly.

"Are you more awake?" Chen Min coughed a few times and asked sternly.

"My master... wuwu..." Bi Zaiyou burst into tears and couldn't speak clearly for a while.

"Your father is a man of integrity, and his son can only throw tantrums and cry?" Chen Min clenched his fists. "Old Bi risked his life to let you live, and this is how you want to live? Wasting your life in vain?"

Bi Zaiyu propped himself up with his hands and pounded the ground upon hearing this: "The hatred for my father's murder is irreconcilable! The enemy is right before my eyes, Uncle Chen, what can I do? If I don't fight for my life in the battlefield, am I going to be a coward?!"

Seeing Chen Min silent, Bi Zaiyou shook his head, wiped his face, gritted his teeth, picked up the machete and was about to go to the front of the battle again.

Seeing this, Chen Min could only sigh and say, "Since ancient times, military strategists have said that a son should not be sent into battle alone. Let alone letting a father and son go to the battlefield together, or even letting the father die and the son take over. If a general acts like this, his descendants will be extinct."

"But the situation is pressing." Seeing Bi Zaiyu stop and turn around to listen, Chen Min could only continue this difficult conversation. "After this battle, all my generals have been killed or wounded, and I myself was careless and hit by an arrow. I am just holding on now."

"So, the next big thing can only rely on you."

As Chen Min spoke, she lifted her burqa and showed Bi Zaiyu her wound.

There were two serious arrow wounds on Chen Min's left side. One was on the thigh, which was a penetrating arrow wound. At this time, the arrow had been pulled out and the wound had been treated, but blood still seeped through the gauze.

The arrow wound under the ribs was even more serious. The army doctor didn't know whether it had damaged the internal organs. He simply broke the arrow shaft and didn't even dare to pull out the arrowhead, which was still bleeding and stuck in the flesh.

On normal days, these injuries would be easy to deal with, but now it is still wartime. In order to prevent the army from collapsing, Chen Min can only sit on the high ground and hold on.

Bi Zaiyu's tender cheeks twitched a few times. He wanted to comfort her, but when the words came to his lips, he could only ask, "Uncle Chen, I may be just a brave man, but I am willing to die. If there is anything important, just tell me."

When Chen Min heard Bi Zaiyu say that he was willing to die, a trace of sadness appeared on his face.

The Bi family has only one son for three generations. If Bi Jin and his son were to die on the battlefield today, Chen Min, who has been trained in the army for many years and has a heart as hard as stone, would still feel reluctant.

As if Bi Zaiyu knew what Chen Min was thinking, he stood up straight and said loudly: "In today's battle, and even since the Jin dog invaded the south, how many families have been wiped out? If I can avenge my master, why should I care about my life?"

The voice that was still changing but became strange like a duck due to shouting was quite funny, but the firmness in his words still made the surrounding soldiers tremble with fear.

Chen Min was silent for a moment, as if he had made up his mind. He pointed to the large Jin army flag over 200 steps away and said, "That Wuping flag is the Wanhu flag of the Jin bandits on the other side. I saw it clearly from my high vantage point earlier. It was that flag that led the cavalry and prevented Lao Bi from retreating."

Bi Zaiyou's breathing suddenly became heavy, and his eyes were fixed on the big flag like flaming fire.

"The Jin bandit's Wan Hu Du Tong is definitely under that banner. Even though reinforcements have arrived, they must break through the Jin bandit's formation before they can kill the Jin bandit Wan Hu. This will take too long and there are too many variables."

"The arrival of the Jin bandit general to our front is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity. We should accomplish this great feat!"

"I still have 200 of my personal guards who are still able to fight. I'll give them all to you." Chen Min gritted his teeth and said, "Take that damn Wuping flag from me!"

"Here!"

Not to mention how Chen Min and Bi Zaiyou fought hard, Wanyan Alin, who was two hundred steps away, was also constantly observing the surrounding battle situation.

The Wuping Army has fallen into a dilemma of being completely passive on the defensive. However, defending to the death has never been the style of the Jin Army. Even though Wanyan Alin promised Wanyan Yuanyi to attract the attack of the Song Army and buy time for the rest of the troops, blindly defending is only a way to bring disaster.

We have to defeat one of them first.

However, after the Wuping Army was at a disadvantage, it did not have many bargaining chips. Wanyan Alin knew that he could only strike once, and if he could not achieve great success, he would inevitably be counterattacked.

By then, even holding on will be impossible!
The Jingnan army behind them in the east was in good order, with bright armor and a solid formation. From a distance, it looked like a tough nut to crack. We definitely couldn't use our last throw to smash such an iron plate.

To the north, the Flying Tigers' cavalry moved relentlessly, sweeping the main road clear in a remarkably short time. This frightened Wanyan Yuanyi's Weisheng Army into retreating, leaving the few elite infantrymen of the Wuping Army to face certain death on the plain.

As for the southern naval forces, they were indeed disorganized, small in number, and poorly equipped. But what was the point of the Wuping army attacking them? Even if they could completely crush the Song navy, would the Wuping army attempt to break out of Chaohu Lake? Would they swim to Luzhou?
It can only be Chen Min’s troops on Turtle Mountain in the west.

The defenders of Guishan had been pinned down by the Jin army for two hours, yet they hadn't collapsed. Their resilience was beyond the Jin army's imagination. Wanyan Alin was a veteran general after all, and he had noticed the unrest among Chen Min's troops from the slightest clue.

And this restlessness is a sign that the army is losing control.

In Wanyan Alin's view, Chen Min's troops at this time were like a dilapidated old house, which would collapse with a single kick from the outside.

Just when Wanyan Alin was hesitating whether to kick out, several strong men suddenly rushed out of the old house, vowing to beat the bastard who kicked the wall outside into a pig's head!
It was true that Chen Min's troops were in a state of restlessness and on the verge of collapse, but Chen Min gave strict orders to his subordinates and launched another attack on the Jin army.

The Song army on Guishan Mountain was also feeling mixed emotions at this time: fatigue from the battle, fear and hatred of the Jin army, resentment towards military orders, and excitement at the arrival of reinforcements.

Although mixed with various emotions, military orders are military orders. The Ezhou army still strictly implemented Chen Min's orders, mustered up their remaining courage, and attacked on all fronts.

This was the so-called "bring your family along in one wave" attack, and it was also the Song army's last gamble. If it didn't achieve any results, it would be disastrous. Under the counterattack of the Jin army, Chen Min's troops would definitely be completely destroyed.

As the saying goes, a disaster for an army begins with hesitation. Wanyan Alin hesitated for only a moment before he was struck in the face by the Song army.

The only thing is that war is not a game. There is no such thing as whoever takes the first step will definitely win.

Wanyan Alin didn't panic. He stood still and gave a command with a clear mind: "Tell Liu Cangyu to fight back the way the Song dogs attack us. I will back him up. As long as he can hold out for a moment, I will personally go into battle and defeat the enemy!"

As soon as the order was given, Wanyan Alin immediately raised the flag and moved forward. He had just taken two steps when he heard a huge cheer coming from behind him.

Wanyan Alin immediately frowned and looked back, but saw that the extremely well-organized Jingnan army at the foot of Guishan Mountain suddenly split into several relatively loose small square formations, changed their steady and cautious style, and began to advance rapidly and pursue relentlessly.

The crossbowmen in the Jingnan army also began to show their prowess, not caring about the consumption of arrows or the accuracy, but simply raising their bows and hurling arrows. The dense rain of arrows actually caused the Jin army, which was defending with shields, to tend to collapse.

Xin Qiji launched his general offensive at just the right time, seemingly in response to Chen Min's counterattack. The Jingnan army pressed forward, squeezing the panicked Wanyan Mougui into a narrow strip at the foot of Guishan Mountain.

Wanyan Alin just watched silently for a moment, then turned his head, stared at the Ezhou army on Guishan Mountain, and took the bow from his back.

To be honest, on the battlefield of such an elite decisive battle, armored soldiers are everywhere, cavalry are no better than dogs, and swords and axes are the best weapons.

No matter how powerful the iron-framed bow was, or how good its armor-piercing abilities were, it wasn't a machine gun. Each draw expended the user's energy, and in the chaos of battle, the lower the chance of hitting, the more satisfying it was to swing with a broadsword. However, Wanyan Alin, besides being the commander of ten thousand troops and the general commander of an army, was also a renowned archer within the army.

This large bow engraved with the words "My heart is filled with longing for your green collar" was given by Wanyan Liang to Wanyan Alin to show the promise of loyalty between the monarch and his subject.

Since Wanyan Liang had never let Wanyan Alin down, at this moment, Wanyan Alin would definitely take this big bow and repay his kindness with his death!
"forward!"

Wanyan Alin raised his bow high and gave orders in a stern voice.

The armored cavalry who were fighting on foot beside him also shouted and rushed forward.

As nearly three hundred elite soldiers rushed into the battlefield, the front line in front of Wanyan Alin immediately advanced, and the Ezhou army that had just attacked immediately showed signs of disintegration.

But what Wanyan Alin did not expect was that the two wings of the Jin army were suppressed by the Ezhou army.

This was partly due to exhaustion from prolonged combat, but more importantly, in the panic of being attacked from both sides, junior officers like Xingjun Mouke misjudged the situation. They had never imagined that not only would they not be able to defend, but they would also have to launch a counterattack.

Come to think of it, even radicals like Wanyan Alin understood that they should defend to the death at this moment, let alone the ordinary Jin army?
It was just this slight delay that allowed Wanyan Alin's Wanhu banner to cross the front line and advance too far.

Hidden in the midst of the Song army's attack, Bi Zaiyu had already put on a new set of armor. His helmet was still a little too big, and after tying it several times, it still wouldn't stay in place. Bi Zaiyu simply threw the helmet to the ground, raised his broadsword high, and pointed at the Wuping flag over a hundred steps away.

"rush!"

Without further ado, the fourteen-year-old Bi Zaiyu once again took the lead. Over two hundred elite Song soldiers followed silently behind him, their mouths sealed. They charged into the Jin army formation, hacking and killing without restraint, cutting diagonally towards Wanyan Alin.

It was not until they had advanced more than thirty steps that the Song army finally released their mouthpieces and shouted in unison.

"Kill the thief!"

"Kill the bandits!" Bi Zaiyu also shouted loudly. Although he was physically strong, he was relatively short. At this time, he wielded a machete and slashed left and right, aiming at the lower three parts of the Jin army. The Jin soldiers often saw only a figure flash before their thighs and knees felt a sharp pain and fell to the ground.

Bi Zaiyou did not stop, letting the follow-up troops finish off the attack, while he stepped forward lightly and headed straight for the Wanhu flag.

Wanyan Alin only noticed the Song army when they were about fifty steps away, and hurriedly called on his personal guards to step forward to stop them.

Speaking of the commander-in-chief, he would usually gather a group of trusted elite soldiers to make the final decision. The number of these soldiers would vary depending on the general's duties and temperament.

As Cheng Min's deputy, Chen Min often leads an army alone and has to do all the dirty work himself, so his personal soldiers, like Lei Ben's troops, are very versatile swordsmen.

You can chop off people's heads and horses' hooves, you can chop anything.

They wore heavy armor and held long, heavy, sharp machetes in their hands. With a powerful blow, even the enemy wearing heavy armor would have his bones broken.

Wanyan Alin's guards were no ordinary men, and they wouldn't have been unable to stop Chen Min's guards. However, they were originally armored cavalry, and their daily training and weapons and equipment were all designed for cavalry warfare.

This also meant that the only melee weapons these elite armored cavalry could use at this time were cavalry hammers.

However, how can a cavalry hammer that is more than two feet long compete with a five-foot-long broadsword?

The two sides clashed before Wanyan Alin, but instead of a clash of equals, the outcome became instantly clear. The Song army, with unstoppable force, mowed down the first wave of Jin troops, finally reaching Wanyan Alin.

Wanyan Alin was naturally not afraid. He held a longbow and shot the Jurchen heavy arrows in a continuous manner. Several Song soldiers in front of him screamed and fell to the ground.

After all, he is a military aristocrat who has been training his muscles since childhood. Even if Wanyan Alin relies on his own courage, he is not afraid of anyone!

Wanyan Alin's personal guards also reacted at this time. Dozens of them held shields and came to the upper flank of the Song army. Then they raised their bows and arrows and shot the Jurchen heavy arrows into the Song army at close range.

It must be said that this move worked wonders. Since the Song army was armed with two-handed broadswords, it was impossible for them to use a large shield. And although the infantry armor had layers of armor, there were still areas that were not protected.

For example, if an arrow pierces the arms, thighs, or ribs, the person will not die immediately, but will definitely lose their combat effectiveness.

After only two rounds of arrow rain, more than 30 Song soldiers fell to the ground wailing. Taking advantage of this opportunity, Wanyan Alin led his personal guards to withstand the offensive, and there was even room for a counterattack.

The Song army, however, relied on their individual bravery, wielding their broadswords and charging into battle. From this moment on, the battle devolved into a melee, leaving the bow-wielding Jin army helpless. With the exception of a few archers who remained stationed to snipe and kill, the rest of the Jin army abandoned their bows and wielded hammers, engaging the Song army in hand-to-hand combat.

Bi Zaiyou pushed away the corpse of the Song soldier on top of him, took a quick look, and found that three heavy Jurchen arrows had pierced the chest and abdomen of the Song soldier.

Song Jun's helmet fell to the side. At this moment, Bi Zaiyou recognized that the Song Jun who knocked him down and protected him with his body was the shirtless man who had pulled him back from the front line before.

Bi Zaiyou lowered his eyes, mourned in silence for a moment, picked up the big knife, and continued to kill forward.

At this time, he was very close to Wanyan Alin!

Even though Bi Zaiyu was short, Wanyan Alin still spotted him from this distance. Wanyan Alin raised his hand and shot an arrow, aiming it directly at Bi Zaiyu's forehead.

Bi Zaiyou was prepared and held his sword in front of his face, blocking the arrow with the blade.

There was a sound.

The arrow drew a streak of sparks on the blade and flew obliquely to the side.

Even though he tried to reduce the force, Bi Zaiyou's hands were still numb from the arrow, but he didn't care at all. He pulled out the short hammer from his waist and threw it towards Wanyan Alin who was five steps away.

"Go!"

The distance was too close, and Wanyan Alin, who had just put an arrow on his head, was unable to react in time and could only hurriedly block it with his longbow.

The short hammer hit the bow, and the big bow that was pulled into a full moon broke in the middle with a snap, and the bowstring hit Wanyan Alin's face hard.

This long bow was a gift from the emperor, so Wanyan Liang would naturally not fool his trusted generals with a defective product.

But firstly, it was quite old, and although Wanyan Alin had taken good care of it, it could not withstand the corrosion of time; secondly, although Wanyan Alin carried this bow with him, it was impossible for him to really use it as his main weapon, so he was not very familiar with the condition of the bow.

"Ah!!!" Wanyan Alin screamed miserably. He covered his face with his hands, blood continuously flowing out from between his fingers. In front of his right eye, everything was dark and he could not see anything.

"You little bastard!" Wanyan Alin cursed.

The guards beside him were also panicked. Some strode forward to try to stop the Song army, while others tried to drag Wanyan Alin away from the battlefield.

However, the actions of Wanyan Alin's personal guards had the opposite effect, allowing the surrounding Song soldiers to recognize that this man was a high-ranking officer. In an instant, more than a dozen Song soldiers abandoned their opponents and rushed towards Wanyan Alin together.

Bi Zaiyou raised his sword and chopped down the enemies who blocked his way one by one, and then he came to Wanyan Alin again.

Wanyan Alin broke free from his guards, threw his helmet aside, bent down, grabbed a handful of loose soil from the ground, and applied it to his face. He kicked a Song soldier away and snatched the machete from his hand. Wanyan Alin shouted at Bi Zaiyu, "You son of a bitch! Are you tired of living?"

Wanyan Alin's right eyelid was torn open by the bowstring, and his eyeball exposed to the air had turned blood red. The wound on his face was still bleeding and mixed with the loose dust, making him sound like a demon no matter what he said.

Bi Zaiyou said nothing, but took a step forward. Just as his father had taught him, he raised his sword, using his feet as the force, and used all his strength to chop fiercely at the general in front of him.

Wanyan Alin sneered and attacked, his broadsword slashing down like a colorful ribbon in the sky.

With a clang, the two swords collided, and in a burst of sparks, Bi Zaiyu's long sword slipped out of his hand and fell to the ground.

If Bi Zaiyuu were to meet him again twenty years later, he would definitely not be at a disadvantage, but he is still just a young man after all.

But Bi Zaiyu was fully aware of this, and he even took the initiative to abandon his long sword. Taking advantage of Wanyan Alin's old skills, Bi Zaiyu pulled out his wrist-cutting knife from the inside of his wrist armor and slammed into Wanyan Alin like a cannonball.

The distance between the two was too close, and the severe pain on his face made Wanyan Alin lose his keen insight into the battlefield, and he was knocked to the ground by Bi Zaiyu.

Both the Song and Jin armies around them cried out in surprise, and all wanted to step forward to aid their respective generals, but they each blocked the other and fought in a group.

Although Wanyan Alin was knocked to the ground, he did not lose his fighting power. He threw away the machete that was in the way and swung his iron fist to hit Bi Zaiyu who was pressing on him.

Bi Zaiyou was hit hard in the waist and abdomen, but he just groaned, turned the sharp knife in his hand, and stabbed it fiercely at Wanyan Alin's ribs which were not protected by the infantry armor.

Wanyan Alin cried out in pain. Although he was wearing chain mail to protect himself, the knife did not penetrate even half an inch of his flesh, but it still caused him unbearable pain.

"You little bastard!" Wanyan Alin stretched out his arms, grabbed Bi Zaiyu's head with both hands, and was about to use force to break his neck.

Bi Zaiyu held his neck and struggled twice, but failed to break free. He simply opened his mouth and bit off the other person's fingers. He raised the sharp knife with both hands and stabbed it fiercely at Wanyan Alin's face.

During the fight, the wrist-breaking knife lost its accuracy, but it hit the target by accident and pierced Wanyan Alin's throat.

"Huh... Huh..." Wanyan Alin opened his left eye wide, as if he wanted to say something, while his hands were still fighting Bi Zaiyu hard.

Bi Zaiyou spat a mouthful of blood, and tried to take two heavy punches with his head. He put all his strength into pressing the sharp knife into Wanyan Alin's neck.

"When you get to the underworld, tell the King of Hell that the man who killed you was Bi Zaiyu, the son of Wuyi Doctor Bi Jin!"

Wanyan Alin's struggles became weaker and weaker until they turned into spasms.

"The leader of the bandits is dead!" Bi Zaiyou cut off Wanyan Alin's head, held it high and shouted loudly, then picked up his machete and rushed towards Wuping's flag.

Wanyan Alin's personal guards did not flee immediately. They launched a chaotic counterattack in shock and anger, but were resolved one by one by the morale-boosted Song army.

When Bi Zaiyou killed the flag-bearing officer and seized the flag, a wave of unrest spread throughout the Wuping army like a plague.

Fear and panic spread, and the Wuping army finally couldn't bear it and broke apart. The Jin army officers were unable to stop the rout because they themselves were already discouraged and some even took the lead in fleeing with their guards.

"Turn! Turn!" Xin Qiji waved his banner and shouted urgently, "Push the defeated army to the north! North!"

The Jingnan army at the foot of Guishan Mountain received the order to turn around and drove the defeated Wuping army towards the Weisheng army.

At this time, Liu Huai had rescued Cheng Min and led the cavalry to clear the road between the two armies, so that the defeated army had a clear path between them and the Weisheng army.

Seeing this, Liu Huai said to Cheng Min beside him, "Uncle Cheng, the fate of the world depends on this! Please hand over the command of all the Beiwei troops to me!"

Cheng Min panted and asked, "What are you going to do?"

Liu Huai said proudly: "Of course, we will kill Wanyan Liang!"

Cheng Min nodded, and without further questioning, he waved and called over a man: "Deputy Commander of the Beiwei Army, Cheng Bofeng!"

A large man with half his beard burned off bowed and said, "Manager!"

"You take all the reorganized Beiwei troops and obey the orders of General Liu." Cheng Min said sternly, "If he tells you to die, you die. Do you understand?"

This general, who was obviously Cheng Min's nephew, immediately bowed and agreed.

Afterwards, more than 800 Beiwei soldiers gathered together, changed into new war horses, and joined forces with more than 700 Feihu soldiers.

Just as Liu Huai was about to turn his horse and leave, Cheng Min grabbed his reins and said, "General Liu, although you are my junior, you are very knowledgeable. Tell me, can this battle really decide the fate of the world? Can it really bring peace to the world?"

Liu Huai pondered for a moment on the chaotic battlefield, then shook his head and said, "Of course it won't work. But no matter what, according to history books, this battle marked the beginning of peace in the world!"

Cheng Min loosened Liu Huai's horse reins, waved his hand and said, "Since that's the case, then go quickly and bring peace to the world!"

Liu Huai bowed and then led the 1,500 cavalrymen to gallop towards Wanyan Liang's Jinwu flag.

The Flying Tiger flag fluttered in the wind. When it passed by the Jingnan Army that was driving the defeated troops northward, everyone in the army cheered loudly.

"Flying Tiger!"

"Flying Tiger!"

"Flying Tiger!"

When they reached the central army, Liu Huai and Xin Qiji were separated by several phalanxes and looked at each other from afar.

As they passed each other, Liu Huai raised the Liquan spear in his hand and shouted to Xin Qiji: "I'm going to Quantai to recruit my old subordinates!"

Xin Qiji, who had already turned his attention to Liu Huai, heard this and immediately drove his horse forward two steps, raising his heavy sword in response: "With a hundred thousand banners, kill Yama Luo!"

"Hahahaha!"

Amidst the laughter, Liu Huai led his cavalry and marched away in a mighty manner. Xin Qiji was momentarily stunned, and then he said to several clerical staff and military commanders around him: "General, go and kill Wanyan Liang. We cannot fall behind the general."

"Pass on my order. All units must continue to advance. The vanguard must engage immediately. The remaining troops must not rotate and must circle the battlefield to form an encirclement!"
