Although Ha Tielong looks rough, he is very meticulous in his thinking. In local dialect, he is the kind of person who can think clearly.
Along the way, he asked his subordinates to write down the number of heads piled up along the way. The final count was 212 people in total.
In other words, almost all the Jurchen warriors led by Tu and Su were killed by the Song army.
Ha Tielong's heart sank little by little.
Now it should be confirmed that Tu and Su are finished.
Braving the constant harassment from the Song army, the Jin army reached Magedang with great difficulty.
From a distance, you can see a tall wooden pole standing at the entrance of Magedang Village, with a person hanging on it.
Because it's far away, I can't see it clearly.
As they got closer, the sharp-eyed Jin soldier shouted, "The ones hanging up there are Tu and Su Mouke."
Although Ha Tielong was prepared, his heart still skipped a beat.
At this moment, the sound of war drums was heard from Ma'erdang Village. Then, several flags were erected on the wall, and countless Song soldiers leaned out from the top of the wall.
Ha Tielong had fought against the Song army several times and won every time. In his eyes, the Song army was just a bunch of chickens and dogs, and even the strongest Western Army was a pile of mud.
He looked at Tu Hesu hanging high in the air, wondering how the Song army, which had always been cowardly, could defeat Tu Hesu and wipe him out in one fell swoop?
Ha Tielong has a total of four Moukes under his command, and Tuhesu is one of them. Although his combat capability is not the strongest, it is not the weakest either.
He must have underestimated the enemy, allowing the Song army to take advantage of the opportunity.
Ha Tielong did not dare to be careless and quickly sent out two teams of cavalry, one on the left and one on the right, to explore the periphery of Magedang.
In addition, several scouts were sent out to investigate whether there were any Song army ambushes nearby.
Ha Tielong himself was riding on a horse, with an expression that varied from gloomy to happy.
He only brought more than a thousand people with him. If he attacked Magedang by force, there would definitely be heavy casualties.
The most crucial thing is that we are now completely in the dark, the enemy situation is unclear, and we don’t know how many Song troops are there in Ma’erdang.
However, the attire of the opposing Song army was very chaotic. Most of them were not wearing armor, not even leather armor. It was obvious that they were not regular Song army.
Just as he was considering whether to attack by force, he saw the village gate opened and a Song general wearing a black helmet and armor, holding a Fang Tian Hua Ji, appeared. It was Zhang Shixun.
He rode out of the village and rode alone towards the Jin army, and stopped at a point where the Jin army's formation was within an arrow's reach.
He raised his Fang Tian Hua Ji and shouted, "You Jurchen bastards on the other side, come out and speak up."
Ha Tielong was immediately enraged. He urged his horse forward and shouted, "Song dog, stop being so rude! I am Meng'an Ha Tielong, serving under the command of Wanyan Zonghan, the Grand Marshal of the Great Jin. Who are you? Tell me your name immediately."
Zhang Shixun couldn't help but laugh as he listened to him speak so eloquently. "How did you, a crude barbarian like you, learn such elegant speech? How disgusting!"
Ha Tielong's expression froze.
He really couldn't read a single word. This set of rhetoric was taught to him by a Han Chinese from the Liao Dynasty, who said that the people of the Song Dynasty fell for it.
In several battles with the Song army, there was no chance to use it at all. Today, I finally used it, but was ridiculed by the opponent.
Ha Tielong said angrily, "Stop talking nonsense and tell grandpa your name."
Zhang Shixun looked at him with amusement, and after a while he said, "Since you want to know who I am so much, I'll tell you. My last name is Zhang, and my given name is Ye."
"Master Zhang."
"Yes! My dear grandson, call me again."
Only then did Ha Tielong realize that he had been fooled by the other party. He became furious and rushed towards Zhang Shixun with his mace raised.
Zhang Shixun showed no sign of weakness, holding a Fang Tian Hua Ji and standing with Ha Tielong.
If he wanted to kill Ha Tielong, he wouldn't have to do anything. He just had to open the mechanism in the Fang Tian Hua Ji and kill Ha Tielong at any time.
However, he has not yet attempted to engage in combat immediately.
This fight made Zhang Shixun groan in pain.
Ha Tielong was strong and swung his mace, smashing it down on Zhang Shixun's head.
Even though Zhang Shixun was a very skilled person, he still felt some numbness in his arms.
The problem is that Ha Tielong doesn't follow any rules at all. Cheng Yaojin has three tricks, but this guy in front of him only has one trick - smash!
Smash it hard.
It's powerful and fast, so I just want to ask you if you can stop it.
With this move, Ha Tielong killed several Song generals.
However, the Zhang Shixun he met today destined him to be unlucky.
After Zhang Shixun resisted for a few times, he figured out Ha Tielong's tactics and stopped defending blindly.
He used the Fang Tian Hua Ji in his hand to block Ha Tielong's mace at an angle, and then stabbed it towards the opponent's head.
Ha Tielong tilted his head to avoid the tip of the Fang Tian Huaji.
Zhang Shixun's stab missed, so he changed it to a drag, and suddenly pulled back, with the hook of the Fang Tian Hua Ji pointing towards Ha Tielong's neck.
Although Hatilon reacted quickly and dodged to the side, the halberd still cut a gash on his neck and blood flowed out.
Zhang Shixun succeeded in one move and did not give him a chance to fight back. He swung the Fang Tian Hua Ji in his hand, moving left and right, and each move was aimed at Ha Tielong's head.
Ha Tielong was caught in a dilemma and suddenly fell into a passive position.
The National Protection Army of Ma'erdang stood on the wall. Seeing their leader was unstoppable, they cheered and shouted to encourage him.
Zhang Shixun became more and more courageous as the battle went on, and he beat Ha Tielong so hard that he could only defend himself and had no power to fight back.
Seeing that his own Meng'an was about to suffer a loss, the deputy general of the Jin army urged his horse to gallop towards the battlefield.
Zhang Shixun saw it out of the corner of his eye, smiled secretly, and quickly turned on the switch on the Fang Tian Hua Ji. He pointed his thumb at the tip of the Ha Tielong halberd and pressed the button. An invisible gas spurted out from the tip of the halberd.
Ha Tielong's body paused, his eyes rolled back, and he was instantly anesthetized.
In a flash, Zhang Shixun stretched out his left hand quickly, grabbed the leather armor on his chest, and dragged him onto his saddle without waiting for him to fall off the horse.
This move was so sudden and swift that no one from either army could see it clearly. They only saw Zhang Shixun thrust out his halberd and then captured Ha Tielong.
Everyone thought that the halberd had injured Hatilon.
Zhang Shixun captured Ha Tielong, circled his horses and returned without wasting a moment.
Upon seeing this, Ha Tielong's deputy general became very anxious and desperately urged his horse to chase after him.
When he got close, Zhang Shixun turned around and pointed his Fang Tian Hua Ji at him. The deputy general immediately fell off his horse, but one of his feet was caught in the stirrup and he was dragged forward by the warhorse.
Seeing their main general captured and their deputy general killed in battle, the Jin army was in chaos and the Jurchen cavalry rushed towards them frantically.
According to the military law of the Jin Dynasty, if the commander-in-chief was captured or killed in battle, his subordinates would be executed or held accountable.
However, in terms of the severity of enforcement, the later Yuan Dynasty was much stricter than the current Jin Dynasty.
Zhang Shixun looked back and urged his horse back to Ma'erdang Village.
"Close the gate and prepare for battle!"
Behind the village wall, the National Protection Army was already on full alert, with ten small catapults lined up in a row, ready to launch at any time.
