It was not until the city gate closed behind him, blocking countless enemy troops behind him, and confirming that they were safe, the more than 100 soldiers of the Tiger and Leopard Cavalry who had survived from death softened and fell down from the horse's back one after another. Fortunately, there were many robes guarding the side, and when they saw them fall down and hurried forward to support them, they did not suffer any more harm.

The battle just now was too dangerous and too hard. If Dong Ping hadn't led the army to rescue him in time at the last moment, if he was a little late, these hundred cavalrymen would have probably died in the heavy siege of the Wu army. At this time, Panasonic was so excited that everyone felt the pain and numbness, but they didn't even have the strength to stand up.

In fact, not only these ordinary cavalrymen, but also Yue Fei and Lin Chong, they also needed someone to support them to safely get off the horse. They also had dozens of wounds of all sizes, and their bodies were dyed red by the blood of themselves and the enemy. But after landing and standing firmly, the two still straightened their backs, looked firmly at the streets behind, and saluted: "I will meet the commander."

It was not until then that everyone realized that Sun Tuzheng led people to come with a serious expression, and he did not care that the armor was not removed, and they all came forward to greet him. Dong Ping even hesitated and said with some trepidation: "I also asked the chief to rule me. It was because I sent troops too late, which caused many soldiers to die outside in battle..."

Sun Tuxian stepped forward and helped Lin Chong and Yue Fei right up to him, and then came to him and supported him: "What's the crime? I saw everything just now. The timing of your attack was the most appropriate. If it was too early, it would only cause more people to fall into danger. Now it would be a great achievement to be able to rescue the brothers of the Tiger and Leopard Cavalry. And you——" As he said, he looked at the Ximen defenders in front of him: "You have all made contributions, and I will reward you when the time comes."

After soothing the morale of the army, Sun Tucai sincerely looked at the wounded cavalry soldiers: "But today's first contribution is still our Tiger and Leopard Cavalry! You are worthy of being the sharp swords of our Shandong Army. This battle has brought the majesty of our Shandong soldiers. This battle alone is enough to make the rebels outside the city frightened and dare not look down on us anymore! Tiger and Leopard Cavalry is majestic!"

With his last loud shout, he was already depressed and immersed in the sadness of countless brothers dying outside the city, the remaining soldiers of the Tiger and Leopard Cavalry, who were suddenly excited. Even if they were injured, they all raised their chests and their eyes became firm again. Then they shouted loudly: "Tiger and Leopard Cavalry are mighty! Shandong Army is victorious!"

Soon, the shouts spread, and the soldiers of the West Gate guards beside him also shouted, and the screams spread from afar and then spread to other places. In an instant, the East Gate guards, the South Gate guards, and the Shandong soldiers stationed in other important places in Changshu City all raised their weapons and shouted loudly: "The tiger and leopard cavalry is majestic, and the Shandong army is victorious!"

The roars gathered together, and the mighty and victorious screams soared into the sky, as if they could shatter the large dark clouds gathered above their heads. When the sound reached the north gate, the Huainan army there looked at each other, their minds changed, and they could not calm down for a long time.

The soldiers of Huainan Army who came down from Peng Yongzhen have not yet come back to their senses from the thrilling battle at the south gate just now. They really can't believe that the Shandong Army would be so bold that they would go out of the city with small groups of soldiers to confront the 100,000 enemy troops head-on. Just thinking about this matter is enough to make them frightened.

In their opinion, the rash attack of the tiger and leopard cavalry was considered an act of killing the stone with eggs and seeking death. The defenders of the West Gate behind actually opened the city gate and went out to respond. This was a complete reckless act, and they were irresponsible to the entire Changshu City and the tens of thousands of soldiers in the city.

At that time, both Peng Yongzhen and the other Huainan army were so scared that their faces were pale, and they said that this time, Changshu would fall. It was not until the end that they watched the enemy Mingjin retreat and the Ximen closed again that they breathed a sigh of relief, but the heart they had previously been thrust into was that they had not yet fallen to this day.

"Sun Tu, Shandong Army... They have such a reputation today, so it is indeed beyond people's opinion. However, he never thought that irritating the enemy would make our next situation more dangerous?" Peng Yong really wanted to question Sun Tu with this. But this idea could only be a change in his mind. At this time, the commander Peng Qian did not have the courage to be on par with Sun Tu anymore. The only thing he could do was to strengthen the defensive power here in the North Gate and pray that the anti-army would not put the focus of the siege on his side.

It was not until the shouts around him that Sun Tu suddenly made an act that surprised all the soldiers. He actually bent down and bowed to the remaining hundreds of tiger and leopard cavalry soldiers, which made them stunned. After a while, they bowed one after another: "Don't do this, we are really frightened!"

"This prayer is my apologization to you and the soldiers who died outside the city. I admit that the strategy of sending you out of the city to harass the enemy this time was indeed a bit inappropriate. I underestimated the anti-army outside the city and believed that the speed of cavalry could be free to advance and retreat, but almost put you in a desperate situation and killed many soldiers outside the city." Sun Tu sincerely blamed himself and reflected on himself.

"Don't say that, as a soldier of the Song Dynasty, we are responsible for going to fight and killing the enemy. Moreover, this time we went out of the city to harass us was also a strategy we set together. If we really want to make a mistake, it is also a humble position!" Lin Chong hurriedly exonerated Sun Tu.

Yue Fei also said solemnly: "Yes, General, we have made the worst plan before we left the city, so no one has ever blamed the general. Moreover, in fact, the last general is more responsible. If I hadn't been the strategy of greedying for me and trying to escape from the real and the false, we would have had the chance to escape unstoppable!"

"Minister, we have never complained. Even if we die outside the city, it is our honor!" The other soldiers also spoke to express their feelings, which moved Sun Tu a little, and bent down again: "Since you brothers don't blame me, then Sun Tu will write down this matter first. I promise everyone that there will be no such risky approach in the future!"

After pausing for a moment, he looked at Yue Fei with approval: "So, I want to first adjust the enemy's outward expansion so that the vanguard's central army is empty, so that you can kill the main general in one fell swoop. Is it because Peng Ju you?"

Yue Fei's face turned slightly red, but he nodded: "The situation was urgent at that time, and I had no other way, so I decided to take a chance."

Lin Chong also said with a look of surprise: "When talking about this, Pengju is indeed much better than me. With this battle alone, I believe that Pengju will be a famous general of the Song Dynasty in the future!"

Amid Yue Fei's humble voice, Sun Tu nodded happily and expressed his agreement. But in his heart, there was a little more strange emotion. Yue Fei was Yue Fei after all, even though he was young this year and had only been in the army for a few months, he had already shown a rare general!

After calming down a little and letting the tiger and leopard cavalry go back to rest, Sun Tucai solemnly looked at Dong Ping: "Although our army won a small victory today, it can only hurt the enemy's spirit for the anti-army outside the city, and it will not affect their next attack on Changshu. After tomorrow, they will definitely launch a fierce attack on us. You must defend the West City here, don't be relaxed at all."

"Don't worry, the general will definitely be able to deal with it with it with a spirit of 120!" Dong Ping said, then turned around and looked at the thousands of soldiers on and under the city wall, shouting loudly: "Just just now, our cavalry brothers have completed their mission and demonstrated the majesty of our Shandong Army. Next, it is our turn to rely on the city to fight and give some powerful views to Fang La's anti-army outside!"

"Here!" The soldiers answered their orders loudly, and each of them showed decisive and fearless expressions: "Our army will win!"

Soon, the shout spread again, and the shocking roar of "Shandong Army will win" sounded from all over the city at the same time, and it spread to the Wu army camp that had already been installed in the camp several miles away, causing many soldiers to have strange expressions on their faces.

In the central army's tent, a group of generals who were gathering to discuss matters also showed indignation because of these two consecutive waves of roars. Several people even muttered below: "Shuai Pang is still too cautious, which greatly increases the confidence of the Song army. This is not a good thing for us to attack the city next."

At the last moment of the battle just now, Pang Wanchun's withdrawal of troops was indeed difficult for many people to accept, because in their opinion, as long as they chased them tightly enough, they could take this opportunity to break into the Ximen of Changshu. It was just because Pang Wanchun's reputation was so powerful that they did not dare to raise it head-on.

But these low-key comments still fell into Pang Wanchun's ears, which were sitting on his face, making him smile unconsciously: "I know how dissatisfied with Mingjin's withdrawal of troops. Indeed, if we hadn't retreated before, Ximen might have been able to be captured. But do you know why I did this?"

If there was a substantial gaze swept over quickly, the generals dared not look at him, and they all lowered their heads, and there was no more discussion. Pang Wanchun then continued: "It's just because I saw the situation you haven't discovered, except for the West Gate of Changshu, there were Song troops gathering in the southeast. Once our entire army attacked the West Gate, the rear would inevitably be empty. This is probably going to hit Sun Tu's thoughts and step into Liao Guang's afterwards!"

As soon as these words were said, the generals suddenly woke up and vaguely remembered that there were indeed not many defenders on the two sides of the city before. If what Pang Shuai said was true, they would have ended up like the vanguard army - if the Shandong army was really as fierce and good at fighting as the rumored ones.

With just a few words, Pang Wanchun regained the recognition of the generals, which made him feel a little relieved. But at the same time, his heart also felt a little heavy: "Sun Tu... You are indeed more difficult than I thought. This battle is much more difficult than I thought!" As his mind turned, he looked out of the tent, as if he wanted to penetrate the tent, pass through the thick walls, and look at the city of Dachangshu.
