Chapter 421

After a big battle last night, the Mongolian soldiers were very tired.

While they were sleeping deeply, they were suddenly awakened by explosions and shouts of death.

The soldiers who climbed up from the bunk had no time to put on their armor, so they asked each other what was going on.

Some soldiers who rushed out of the tent stood outside and were dumbfounded. The entire camp was on fire, and countless voices shouted one after another, "Zhao Tai has robbed the camp! Zhao Tai is coming to kill!"

Zhang Rou's subordinates never expected that the Zhongyi Army, which had just encountered a wall yesterday, would come over again to launch a sneak attack.

Moreover, they did not change the target, but still attacked themselves secretly.

Not only Zhang Rou's soldiers did not expect this, but also the general Zhang Rou did not expect this.

After he reported his merits to Kublai Khan during the day, Kublai Khan was very happy and immediately approved the note, allowing him to take away 30,000 guan of money and 20,000 shi of grain.

Zhang Rou had already thought that a small portion of the reward would be distributed to his subordinates, and the rest would be used to invest more and recruit troops so that he could make further military exploits during the Mongolian attack on the Southern Song Dynasty and obtain more rewards.

In this way, the Zhang family will definitely become bigger and stronger and create greater glory!

Zhang Rou was sleeping soundly when he was suddenly awakened by the sound outside the tent. He had no time to put on his armor and hurried out of the tent. He saw a whole camp of soldiers running around in the firelight. He heard the soldiers yelling in panic, "Zhao Tai has robbed the camp again."

La! Run!"

"Robbing the camp again?" Zhang Rou felt dizzy and swayed. Fortunately, the soldiers who came over with armor and helmets supported her, and she fell to the ground without brain congestion.

At this time, the loyal army first reached the vicinity of the camp through the tunnel, then demolished a section of the fence, sneaked into the camp, set fire, threw thunder, and shouted urgently, causing chaos in the camp.

Seeing that the infiltration team had succeeded, Zhao Tai immediately gave an order. The loyal soldiers lying outside the low wall no longer hid, roared and jumped up, rushing towards Zhang Rou's camp.

In order to trap Zhao Tai, the Mongolian army built a large number of fortifications outside the city wall.

It was originally thought that for this batch of fortifications, as long as the patrol sentry in front discovered that the Zhongyi Army was leaving the city and sounded a warning, the Mongolian troops in the camp would be able to respond quickly, rush out of the camp, enter the fortifications to defend, or rely on the main camp to block the Zhongyi Army's surprise attack.

The camp was now in chaos. The frontline fortifications only had patrol posts and no reinforcements from the Mongolian army. They were immediately broken through by the loyal and loyal troops who suddenly came out.

Sanyu hacked to death the Mongolian army's patrol team, led the soldiers to overturn the antlers and horse stakes in front of him, built a flying bridge on the trench, and quickly rushed to the edge of the Mongolian army's camp.

At this time, the horse army led by Wanyan Chengde galloped through the obstacle. The soldiers threw flying hooks to grab the fence of the Mongolian camp. With a pull back on their horses, they pulled down the wall of the camp, forming a huge exit.

As soon as Zhang Rou came out of his tent, he saw the soldiers on the watchtower being shot down, and saw countless loyal soldiers rushing into his camp with shouts.

"Commander Father, hold on!" Zhang Mingshan supported him and said anxiously and angrily.

"Zhao Tai! I am your ancestor!" Zhang Rou's eyes bulged, and she was extremely angry.

At this moment, Zhang Rou was like a person who had been bullied by Zhao Tai for a long time and tried to resist many times, but was always beaten again. She felt ashamed and angry.

At this time, he saw the waves of loyal troops pouring into the camp with loud killing noises. The first reaction of the soldiers in the camp was not to stop them, but to flee. They quickly drew their swords and roared, "Stop the traitors. Anyone who retreats will be shot!"

Kublai Khan besieged Zhao Tai for several months and paid a huge price in order to encircle and annihilate Zhao Tai.

If Zhao Tai ran away, how would Kublai Khan punish him?

Zhang Rou was really worried when she saw the chaos among her subordinates.

He pulled out his sword and didn't bother to put on his helmet. He quickly ordered one of his guards to ask for help from Kublai Khan, and then led his guards to charge forward.

The loyal soldiers who rushed into the camp chased away the rebels and ran into Zhang Rou who wanted to fight for his life.

The Loyalty Army came well prepared, with spears in front to open the way, and archers in the back to shoot. The Mongolian troops fell to the ground one after another, and were retreating after being killed.

"Father, commander, please retreat, and my son will resist the traitors." Zhang Mingshan shouted loudly when he saw that the troops were being beaten and retreating, and the soldiers and horses in the rear were just running away without anyone to command them.

Zhang Rou is a veteran, and he knows that he must reorganize his defense now, otherwise his loyalty will be broken.

At this time, he forced back the loyal troops in front of him with a knife, gritted his teeth, turned around, mounted the war horse brought by his subordinates, and shouted urgently: "My son, resist for a moment, and I will collect my troops and reorganize my defense."

After speaking, Zhang Rou drew her horse and retreated, shouting loudly as she ran, "No chaos, no retreat, reorganize the defense!"

Zhang Mingshan is Zhang Rou's son and a fierce general. In order to buy Zhang Rou time, he advanced instead of retreating, "Kill! Fight with the Zhao thief!"

The sword in Zhang Mingshan's hand flew up and down, killing several loyal soldiers one after another. No one could get close to him when he swung the sword.

Suddenly, there was a loud sound of horse hooves, and Wanyan Chengde flew up on horseback. The horse stabbed directly at Zhang Mingshan. The latter blocked the head with his sword, but his body did not hit the horse and flew straight away.

The huge impact of the war horse knocked him away, and his body fell like a kite with broken strings.

With a "Peng" sound, Zhang Mingshan fell heavily to the ground, and a mouthful of blood immediately spurted out.

Just when he was about to stand up, there was another sound of war horses neighing, and several cavalry came galloping over. The front cavalry pulled hard on the reins of the horses, causing the horses to neigh and the front hooves were hanging in the air. They leaped high, and then two horse legs

Landed directly to the ground hard.

"Young General!" Zhang's troops were surrounded by soldiers. They saw the war horse stepping on Zhang Mingshan's chest. With a "kacha" sound, the entire chest was directly dented.

The cavalry stepped over Zhang Mingshan and drowned him instantly.

Wanyan Chengde did not check the situation behind him, he directly raised his horse and shouted loudly: "Brothers from the Tiger Cavalry Battalion, charge with me!"

The cavalry knights of the Loyalty Army clamped their legs on the horses' belly, straightened their horses, and the horses under their crotches thrust forward like lightning.

Behind him, Zhao Tai led thousands of infantry troops, roaring to follow up, intending to kill directly through the Mongolian camp in one go.

Zhang Rou roared urgently and dared to gather hundreds of soldiers and horses. Before they could reorganize the military formation, the horse army directly ran into them. The soldiers and horses that had finally been gathered dispersed in an instant.

"Commander, you can't stand it anymore, run away!" A Qianhu man reached out and grabbed Zhang Rou's horse reins, crying and advising.

The movement at the north gate alarmed the Mongolian central army. The soldiers ran to the wall of the village, looked north, watched the flames rising into the sky, listened to the explosions, and couldn't help but talk about it.

Kublai Khan had already fallen asleep. When he heard the noise, he suddenly sat up from the bed. At this moment, a man walked in through the curtain and reported urgently, "Report! Your Majesty! The thieves are attacking!"

"What?" Kublai Khan looked surprised and suspected that he had heard wrongly.
