Chapter 993 The Battle of Baigou River(2/2)
The days of being a surrendered general were very difficult. He was not popular among Zhao Wang's army, was ostracized, and was not trusted by his colleagues.
Now, finally having the opportunity to prove himself, Chen Heng naturally would not miss this sentence, and the fight with Zhong Yaqi was in full swing.
However, although Chen Heng was brave and wanted to make great achievements, the soldiers and horses under his command did not think so.
He also has 7,000 cavalry under his command, but more than 4,000 of them are his old troops in the Jizhou army.
These soldiers were different from Chen Heng. Although they did not want to die, they did not want to fight with the Southern Army, so they did not have a high will to fight.
When this group of soldiers and horses came into contact with Zhong Yaqi's cavalry, they either fled or surrendered.
Instead, Chen Heng, a surrendered general, led the young and strong cavalry of the Jurchen tribe and fought hard, which also caused a lot of trouble for Zhong Yaqi's troops.
However, in the end, Chen Heng was still defeated by Zhong Yaqi's troops. Almost all the three thousand brave soldiers and horses under his command were wiped out. The rest either ran away or surrendered!
Chen Heng had no choice but to fight his way out of the siege alone.
With his martial arts skills and courage, he is quite capable of coming and going with ease among thousands of soldiers. It is a pity that such a person actually voted for King Zhao.
After Zhong Yaqi regretted it, he left 300 soldiers and horses to guard the surrendered soldiers, while he led his soldiers and horses to continue the outflanking as planned.

----------------------------------
On the frontal battlefield, the confrontation between Qu Neng and Zhu Kai also entered a fierce battle.
Due to Qu Neng's command, it was difficult for King Zhao to take any advantage for a while!
As time went by, the fog began to thin.
Zhu Kai has already divided his troops to cross the river to attack Zhao Tianlin's camp. His biggest task now is to remain undefeated.
If it were a calm general, he might choose to hold on.
Zhao Tianlin's headquarters has now been cut off by the river and has lost contact with the Pingjing Army on the south bank. The soldiers and horses of the Pingjing Army on the south bank are also unable to support Zhao Tianlin.
Zhao Tianlin is now a lone army, and he only needs to be surrounded and exhausted to bring him down.
This is the optimal solution, but it is not King Zhao’s solution.
Qiu Fu's defeat caused the morale of King Zhao's army to fall to the bottom for a time. Most people were unwilling to do such things as rebellion. It was only King Zhao's prestige that allowed these soldiers to follow him and rise up.
But successive failures will always hit the entrepreneurial team.
Especially for a special entrepreneurial team like Zhao Wang, if the business fails, it may be Jiuzu Xiaoxiaole.
King Zhao must have a hearty victory to inspire his soldiers, boost morale, and regain the confidence of his followers.
Therefore, he did not choose to hold on, but personally led the Guards Cavalry into the Pingjing Army's formation.
King Zhao led thousands of elite men into the formation, risking arrows, rushing left and right, and there was a time when there was no way to stop him.
The morale that had been depleted by the confrontation was gradually restored.
While King Zhao was rushing to kill and use his troops, he could already see the grace of King Kaiping, and he was gradually becoming invincible.
Naturally, it was impossible for Qu Neng to let King Zhao run rampant on the battlefield and then pick up his bow and arrow.
There are three magic arrows in Dazhou, which refers to the three martial arts families in Dazhou who are excellent in archery.
The first one is the Xu family, the founder of Zhongshan, whose arrow is named "Guanri".
The second one is the Qu family represented by Qu Neng, whose arrow is named "Luoyue".
The third is the Yang family of old general Yang Hong, whose arrow is named "Langya"
These three people are all masters of archery in the continental army. They come from Chuanwu family and have extraordinary shooting skills.
Qu Neng saw that King Zhao Zhu Kai was so brave in the formation, so naturally he would not let him do anything. He stretched his bow and shot an arrow directly at King Zhao's face.
On the battlefield, there is no room for mercy. If you can kill King Zhao, you will win in advance.
Although Jinshang is kind, he is not a pedantic person, and he has not made any special excessive demands on King Zhao.
Not even a mention of trying to capture them alive.
Although Thirteen never led an army himself, he was an emperor who knew how to fight.
He knew that his casual words might put a lot of pressure on the soldiers fighting abroad, so he did not make any request for it.
Once he said that he wanted to capture King Zhao alive, these generals and soldiers would definitely have some concerns when fighting King Zhao again, for fear of disobeying the holy will and restraining their hands. This would instead give King Zhao a chance.
This is precisely the case, so Qu Neng didn't have much psychological pressure to shoot and kill a King of Sai, the emperor's uncle.
Qu Neng shot an arrow, and the arrow was like a meteor falling to the moon, reaching an astonishing speed. This arrow was worthy of the name of the "falling moon" arrow of their Qu family.
King Zhao's instinct on the battlefield made him feel the danger coming, but when he turned around, he could only see a cold light coming, and naturally he had no time to dodge!
"My lord, be careful!"
A guard beside him stood in front of King Zhao regardless of his own safety.
Qu Neng's moon-falling arrow pierced the man's throat in an instant, and blood shot out and splashed on King Zhao's face.
