This army was temporarily formed by miners in the mining area.
So, he took the homonym of the word "矿" (mine), which is "狂" (crazy).
The mining army became a mad army.
Xie Daoxun said: "In that case, we can only meet on the battlefield!"
After saying this, he stopped looking at Zhao Hao, reined in his horse and turned back to the army.
Zhao Hao also rode back.
The two armies deployed their battle formations, and the Southern Chu side immediately sounded drums and horns and launched an attack.
Zhao Hao's side was unexpected. He did not engage in the fight at all, but turned around and fled.
Walk along the official road towards Tongshan.
When the Southern Chu army saw it, both the generals and soldiers were stunned.
He immediately chased after him.
However, soon, an order was received to stop the pursuit.
All the generals and soldiers didn't know why.
Xie Daoxun explained: "Zhao Hao is full of tricks. I don't know whether he is trying to lure the snake out of its hole or whether it is better to be cautious!"
Everyone nodded when they heard this.
In the past two days, they have witnessed many of Zhao Hao's tricks.
It is indeed hard to guard against.
Xie Daoxun immediately sent out 3,000 cavalrymen as the vanguard, and the central army followed behind, without making any rash moves.
The three thousand soldiers are all veterans of battle. Even though Zhao Hao has more than 20,000 soldiers under his command, they are just a mob.
Moreover, these three thousand soldiers do not need to win, they just need to hold Zhao Hao back.
Seeing three thousand cavalrymen chasing after him, Zhao Hao immediately ordered his men to spread caltrops behind them.
The horses fell one after another, slowing down the pursuit.
The pursuers were unable to advance, and after running for more than ten miles, Zhao Hao stopped the army again.
He used this method to delay the Southern Chu army for half a day.
It was not until noon, when they retreated to the not-so-spacious Xiazhai Pass, that Zhao Hao ordered the army to stop.
However, there was no sign of relief on his face.
Taking a deep breath, he looked at Wu Song and asked, "How long will it take for my army to arrive?"
Wu Song quickly replied: "General, I'm afraid it will be night soon!"
They also knew long ago that the imperial court had sent a large army to stop them.
Now, there is only half a day left to arrive.
But, this half day...
Zhao Hao took another deep breath. This was the limit of what he could do.
From now on, we can only fight hard.
Zhao Hao stood in front of the pass and watched the Southern Chu army slowly approaching.
Following Xie Daoxun's order to attack, the two armies began fighting at the pass.
The Southern Chu army launched a crazy and swift charge with cavalry.
The Crazy Army occupied the pass and defended it desperately.
As soon as the two armies engaged in battle, the Crazy Army was immediately at a disadvantage.
There is no suspense at all.
But soon, the ones behind came up.
This pass is the best place Zhao Hao could choose for a decisive battle.
The pass was narrow, making it impossible to deploy the army on a large scale, nor to engage in large-scale fighting.
Take advantage of geographical location.
If these were two armies of equal strength, the geographical location occupied by the Crazy Army could be said to be a one-man-block pass against ten thousand.
But now, when the combat effectiveness of the two armies is completely on a different level, they can only wait for the other side to continue reaping the rewards and slaughtering them.
Seeing their companions die one after another, the miners behind were all terrified.
Within an incense stick of time, there were signs that the pass had been breached by the Southern Chu Army.
Seeing this scene, Zhao Hao didn't say a word, brought Wusong, and rushed forward with a sword in his hand.
No one expected that Zhao Hao would dare to lead the charge.
Seeing Zhao Hao take the initiative to charge, the miners were extremely frightened, but they also gained infinite courage and followed Zhao Hao to charge forward.
Qing Xing, who had been guarding Zhao Hao, saw this and brought more than a hundred Qingqi to protect Zhao Hao.
Zhao Hao had no experience at all. He just stared at a Nanchu soldier from a distance and then rushed up.
He raised the sword high and struck the opponent from behind.
However, he didn't know whether this blow of his would make the opponent lose his fighting ability.
He was about to strike again.
However, at this moment, the Nan Chu soldiers next to him had already rushed towards him.
Wu Song, who was standing next to him, saw this and immediately stood in front of him. With a sweep of his sword, he cut the three men in half.
Seeing this, Zhao Hao was stunned for a moment. He took a deep breath and continued to rush to the next target.
Wu Song shouted, "Protect the young master!" and several guards surrounded Zhao Hao.
Qing Xing flashed and appeared in front of Zhao Hao, grabbed Zhao Hao, and then stepped back.
Before Zhao Hao could react, she took him to the back.
"Be honest and don't force me to do what I did in Tucheng."
Zhao Hao said in a deep voice: "These miners have no combat experience. As their commander, if I don't lead the charge at this time, how can they dare to move forward?"
Qing Xing said, "I don't care about these things. I just know that nothing can happen to you!"
"This is my promise to Your Majesty!"
What this means is that in this battle, anyone can die and she doesn't care.
However, Zhao Hao must not suffer any damage.
Looking at her expressionless face, Zhao Hao shook his head slightly.
Then, both legs began to tremble slightly with fear and excitement.
He is afraid too!
Just now, he also rushed forward with gritted teeth.
Once the blood boils, I no longer feel afraid.
But now, when he thought back to what happened just now, if it weren’t for Wusong, the guards, and the Qingqi, all surrounding him.
