Asa was silent for a moment, then looked back towards the high ground.
Wuzhe understood and immediately said, "Even if the plan fails and the commander-in-chief blames you afterwards, we father and son will protect you in front of the King of Wei! If it really doesn't work, come to me, I still have you, the military commander... Are you going or not?"
Asa took a deep breath, looked at the big banner a few hundred steps away, and suddenly laughed: "I am just a small Puliyan, if I fail, it's fine. If I succeed, it will be an unparalleled achievement... Why don't I go?!"
The crow was overjoyed for a moment.
"Wait a minute, let's wait here for a while, wait for Han Shizhong to exert his strength again, and when we get closer, I will attack again!" Asa was rough but meticulous, and quickly formulated a military strategy. "Han Shizhong is a great general after all, and even though he is old, we still have to be careful... If we want to behead him, we must take him by surprise and attack him when he is unprepared."
Wuzhe had even less to say.
The opportunity came at once. In less than half a minute, the battle line once again played out the same scenario that had been played out five or six times before:
The two battle lines were barely in a stalemate when Han Shizhong's large banner suddenly stepped forward and urged his elite Beiwei troops to advance from the left and right wings. The Jin army's cavalry on the left and right were unable to withstand the force and instantly lost control of their formation in a small area. They retreated in a panic, causing the central army's infantry line to retreat hastily.
At this time, Wuzhe, as the front-line commander, should have done as usual, replacing his troops on both sides, supervising the battle in the middle, and then leading the defeated troops to the rear for preparation for the next round of replacement.
However, this time, after discovering that the big banner was located in front and to the right near the river, Wuzhe made a slight change... The left wing remained the same, but the right wing was replaced by five Moukes from his own unit who had never participated in the battle. Among these five Moukes were the fifty Iron Buddha riders of Wanyan Bendu's personal guards, led by Pucha Asa.
The cavalry on both wings took turns. The left wing immediately tried to join forces with other cavalry to stabilize the line and protect the infantry, but the more than 500 cavalry on the right wing took advantage of the situation to accelerate after passing the fleeing soldiers and headed straight for the unparalleled banner in the world.
The Song army had just won a small victory and was trying to advance further when they were suddenly counterattacked by a new force. They were indeed a little panicked, and were penetrated by this cavalry and approached to within a hundred steps of the flag.
However, that was all. As the surrounding Song troops noticed and turned back, they squeezed from all sides. The offensive of the 500-cavalry Jin army was quickly brought under control. The Song army only thought it was a tactical counterattack by the Jin army to stabilize the front line and control the situation, and then relaxed again... But at this moment, the cavalry formation suddenly broke apart. The fifty armored Iron Pagoda riders had already accelerated and jumped out of the formation. Then, with an unstoppable momentum, they rushed straight to the big banner that was only a hundred steps away.
The Song army's cavalry was caught off guard and was actually dispersed by this elite Iron Pagoda, which then allowed the latter to actually rush under the big banner.
At this time, the rain stopped for a while and the field of vision was restored a lot. When the Song army on the front line saw this scene, they were immediately shocked and panicked.
Without further ado, let's just say that Pucha Asa rushed to the big banner, extremely excited, but quickly suppressed his emotions and went to look for Han Shizhong... However, around the big banner were all Song cavalry in bronze-faced armor, and there was no cloak, cape, or jade belt attire, so how could he easily identify them?
However, he soon noticed the unusual rider... First of all, this man had a strong build, similar to the legendary Han Shizhong; secondly, this man was skilled in martial arts and had extraordinary strength, and he knocked an Iron Pagoda off his horse with a large iron spear in one encounter; finally, this man was originally at the closest point to the big flag, and when he saw the Jin army's sudden attack, he did not move at all, but instead seemed to be giving orders in a small area.
Asa no longer hesitated, he jumped forward on his horse and swung the heavy sword in his hand to fight.
Seeing this, three Song army knights on the side abandoned their opponents and thrust their spears at him, but he raised his hand and pulled the three spears directly under his ribs. The three Song army knights were actually subdued by his strength alone, and they were also shocked. However, Asa just turned around and chopped off the three spears with his sword. He ignored them and went straight to the knight he had already identified.
The Jin general showed such a powerful force that the majestic Song cavalryman under the banner was not surprised. Instead, he calmly raised his iron spear to meet him. Both sides raised their hands and faced each other with weapons. Pucha Asa was completely sure that the opponent must be Han Shizhong, otherwise how could he have such a powerful force and martial arts? So he became more and more excited and vowed to kill the opponent in battle to achieve an unprecedented feat.
At a distance of 70 to 80 steps from the banner, Han Shizhong, who was wearing the same attire as the rest of the Beiwei Army, turned his gaze away from the fight between the brave Jurchen general and Wang Shixiong and turned to look at Cheng Min, the commander-in-chief of the Beiwei Army, standing beside him.
"Where did this cavalry come from?"
"On the other side of the river." Cheng Min blurted out.
"That's not what I'm asking." Han Shizhong said calmly. "I'm asking you, where did he and his support troops start from?"
Cheng Min was stunned for a moment, then after thinking for a while, he immediately raised his sword and pointed it at a position behind the Jin army: "That place seems to be next to the Meng'an army flag!"
"I said that the Wanhu banner was far behind, but why were the front troops advancing and retreating in a clear manner?" Han Shizhong looked over there and couldn't help laughing. "I think there must be a Jin army commander who is convincing enough to lead the troops... This is a battle opportunity!"
At the end of his speech, Han Shizhong suddenly raised his hand and pointed in the direction of Linhe, which was exactly the route of the Jin army that was attacking the big banner. Because they had to send a decapitation unit to rush directly under the big banner, the decapitation troops were directly suppressed by the Song army on all sides and it was difficult to retreat, which meant that the gap on this side was not blocked in time.
Cheng Min was originally Han Shizhong's personal trainee, and later took control of the Beiwei Army. At this moment, he immediately understood, but couldn't help but look in the direction of the big banner.
