Chapter 445
The river was wide and the battlefield had a good view. Zhao Tai was afraid that the Mongolian cavalry would escape, so he ordered the fleet to re-establish a landing site more than ten miles away to the south of the battlefield.
As soon as the fleet docked, a temporary dock was quickly set up. The nearly a thousand cavalry carried on the big ship gathered briefly and then rushed to the battlefield to help.
The Qi cavalry that arrived at this time became the straw that broke the camel's back.
When the Qi army on the beach was about to collapse, the horn of the Mongols' retreat sounded.
When the Qi army, who was strangled together, heard the sound of the horn, they thought it was the Mongolian army that had reinforcements coming, but soon someone discovered that the Qi army's cavalry was outflanking them from the side.
"It's the Tiger Cavalry Camp! Commander! It's the Tiger Cavalry Camp! Woohoo~" The soldiers of the Qi army, who had fought hard for a day without shedding a tear, suddenly couldn't hold back at this moment.
"Reinforcements have arrived!"
"The Tatars can't stand it anymore!"
The Qi army on the beach discovered that the Mongolian army was fighting with them. After hearing the sound of the trumpet, they began to retreat and immediately let out bursts of urgent shouts.
The soldiers of the Qi army, who had been struggling to support themselves until now, saw that the Mongolian army was about to run, and their morale instantly increased.
The Qi soldiers, who could barely lift their arms because they kept swinging their swords, picked up their curled swords as if reflecting on their thoughts, grabbed the Mongolian soldiers from behind and tried to flee, dragged them back and slashed them to death with wild swords.
Aren’t your mother-in-law Tatars invincible and capable of destroying countless countries?
Don’t you guys like to invade and bully us? Why don’t you fight?
Damn it, you want to run away now, watch grandpa chop you to death!
The soldiers of the Qi army were charged by the Mongolian cavalry for a whole day and were almost driven down the Huaihe River several times. When the soldiers saw that the Mongolian army was trying to escape, they chased them red-eyed.
For a moment, the Mongolian army turned around and was about to leave. They were pulled off their horses one after another and were wildly hacked to death by the angry Qi army.
The two armies were strangled together, and thousands of Mongolian troops wanted to withdraw. It was not that simple.
At this time, Sawul'er finally stood out and just escaped from the battlefield. Before he could rejoice, the Tiger Cavalry Battalion directly bumped into him.
Wanyan Chenghu's eyes were sharp, staring at the Mongolian army that had just emerged, and without saying a word, "Soldiers, follow me to kill!"
Sawur and his cavalry were exhausted after a day of hard fighting. Now their morale has plummeted and they are unable to compete with the Qi army.
In an instant, the Mongolian cavalry who had just come out were directly rushed to pieces by the Tiger Cavalry Battalion. The scattered Mongolian cavalry did not regroup. Instead, they urged their horses and fled southward.
"Kill!" Wanyan Chenghu killed the enemy cavalry and reined in his horse. Looking back, he saw that the elite Mongolian cavalry did not withstand a single round, and immediately drew his horse and roared.
The Tiger Cavalry Battalion, which had pierced through the Mongolian cavalry, turned around and launched a ruthless pursuit of the Mongolian cavalry who were fleeing across the wilderness.
The changes on the battlefield were seen by the Song army in Chuzhou City, and the Forbidden Army officer who had been blocked in the city by the Mongolian army for several months was extremely shocked.
Nearly ten thousand Mongolian cavalry destroyed Xia and Jin, and the Mongol elite who were invincible in the Huaihe River were defeated like this?
"Ms. sir! Qi Jun won!" Liu Boxian was extremely surprised.
Zhao Fan clenched his fist and waved fiercely, "Open the city gate and the whole army will pursue us!"
This time, the old soldiers from Lin'an raised their hands in support of Xianggong Zhao's decision.
They didn't dare to attack Mongolia, but they were very bold to follow the Qi army to take advantage and gain credit.
For a time, the city gates of Chuzhou were opened wide, and a large number of well-equipped Song Dynasty imperial guards, like tigers emerging from their cages, launched a pursuit against the Mongolian army.
The Mongolian army ran south, with the Tiger Cavalry Battalion and the Song Army chasing after them. The battlefield quickly moved south, and the noisy battlefield near Chuzhou suddenly became quiet.
At this time, the exhausted Qi army could no longer hold on. Lu Wende looked at the disappearing figures of the pursuers and sat directly on a dead horse.
"Brother, since the beginning of the war, we have never fought such a brutal and tough battle!" Lu Wenhuan pounded the ground with his weapon, limped over, and then sat down as well.
Lu Wende raised his head and glanced at him, "How happy! We have become as solid as a rock and will not retreat until we fight to the death!"
Lu Wenhuan said: "Now the Tatars should know that we Han people are not soft persimmons, and we are not sheep to be ravaged by them."
This battle not only made the Mongols unforgettable, but also gave the Qi army soldiers confidence.
"Hahaha~ Yes! Damn it, let's see who dares to underestimate us!" Lu Wende suddenly laughed, his laughter was heroic and sad at the same time.
This laughter spread on the battlefield, and as night fell, the surviving Qi army soldiers, whether sad or happy, laughed to vent their emotions.
More than 80,000 Qi troops could cross the Huaihe River in just one or two days.
With the help of the Chuzhou Song Army, the Qi Army rebuilt the pontoon bridge on the river, and Zhao Tai immediately arrived at the south bank surrounded by soldiers.
The Mongolian army ravaged the Song Dynasty, even drinking horses from the Yangtze River, threatening the south of the Yangtze River, but the Song army was unable to respond, and the people in Huainan were massacred by the Mongolian army.
At this time, Zhao Tai led the Qi army across the river to attack Mongolia. He was undoubtedly the hero of the entire Song Dynasty.
Therefore, when Zhao Tai crossed the river, a large number of Chuzhou people, as well as the Qi army and the Chuzhou Song army gathered beside the pontoon bridge and on the south bank of the Huaihe River.
On the south bank of the Huaihe River, outside Chuzhou City, more than 100,000 soldiers were lined up in formations in the wilderness, with military flags flying in each formation and high spirits.
"The prince has crossed the river!" The messenger cavalry galloped past between the formations.
As soon as Zhao Tai landed on the south bank, he heard more than 100,000 soldiers kneeling on one knee and cheering loudly, "Your Highness, a thousand years old!"
When Zhao Tai saw only the black head, he knelt down on one knee and saluted him, feeling a surge of pride in his heart.
When Wu Xian and Li Fen saw this scene, their hearts were surging and they were extremely excited.
Seeing this, Zhao Tai climbed up to a high place, waved his hand, and raised his arms and fists with a sound like a bell, "Who is the one who defeats the Tartars?"
"Your Highness! Your Highness! Your Highness!" More than 100,000 soldiers responded in unison, and the sound went up to the sky.
Seeing this, the people watching couldn't help but burst into tears. Some old men shook their heads and said, "Grandpa Zhenyue is reincarnated."
Zhao Tai waved his hand and shouted loudly: "The one who defeats the Tartars is the united efforts of all the soldiers and the lives of our soldiers of the Song Dynasty!"
"Ten thousand victories! Ten thousand victories! Ten thousand victories!" The soldiers heard the sound, raised their weapons, put them down, and then raised them again.
Zhao Tai looked around at the troops and saw a forest of guns undulating, flags fluttering, and a sound that shook the sky.
This battle was not a big battle, but it was a hurried attack by the Qi army with an equal number of Mongolian elite cavalry without superior strength.
The Qi army not only blocked the impact of the Mongolian cavalry, but also defeated the Mongolian cavalry and killed thousands of them.
Anyone who sees this record will give a thumbs up. Even if it is evaluated by the Mongolian army, the Qi army will be listed as a strong enemy.
The Forbidden Army of the Song Dynasty has developed to this day, and the high positions in the army have long been occupied by the nobles and nobles of the Song Dynasty.
These people have strong family backgrounds and are not good at fighting, but they rarely obey anyone.
But at this time, these young and old men of the Forbidden Army lined up outside and cheered with the Qi army.
