The Mongolian cavalry rushed over, and the cavalry fired arrows at the Chu army occupying the high ground while galloping. The arrows fell down, and the Chu army's formation became chaotic.

The running of the horse army is the specialty of the Mongolian cavalry. Tens of millions of cavalry are galloping and shooting arrows at one place. The arrows that are fired are missed one after another, and each wave is like locusts falling to the ground.

Even the elite infantry cannot withstand such a dense rain of arrows and will be worn to death sooner or later, let alone the Chu soldiers who have just formed their formation and their formation is not yet stable.

Arrows were missing everywhere, and on the hillside that was hit in front, more than a thousand Chu soldiers fell into chaos.

At this time, a group of Mongolian cavalry dismounted without waiting for the infantry to arrive, picked up their weapons and charged upward.

The bravery of the grassland people was displayed at this moment. They took advantage of the chaos of the Chu army and had no time to build fortifications, raised their antlers to resist the horses, and rushed directly into the formation to fight hand-to-hand.

The ferocity of the Mongolian army shocked the Chu soldiers. The Chu troops on the first two hills were quickly defeated in an uproar and were driven down the high ground by the Mongolian army.

As soon as these defeated troops escaped, the Mongolian cavalry launched an attack, covering them from behind and rushing to the next hilltop.

The Mongolian army overturned the temporary obstacles set up by the defenders and charged madly towards the high ground, seemingly trying to eat up the Chu army on each hilltop one by one.

In the distance, under the banner of the great banner of the Chu army, Shi Songzhi's face was ashen, and all the generals also had solemn expressions.

Jiang Wanzai said: "The main force of the Mongolian army appeared in Huaixi and fought fiercely with our troops. The various tribes in Huainan will definitely get the news. Now our troops are holding on to various hills. As long as we delay, there will be a turn for the better!"

Shi Songzhi didn't say anything. This time he showed a big face. He couldn't take the credit and had to be rescued. It was really embarrassing.

On the battlefield, the Mongolian army broke through two groups of Chu soldiers and drove the Chu soldiers down the hill. Then the cavalry covered them and forced the Chu soldiers to break up and attack the next hilltop.

However, when the Mongolian army broke through the two battalions, the Chu army battalions in the rear gradually stabilized their positions and built fortifications.

When the Mongolian army came over to shoot, the Chu army on the high ground began to fight back with bows and crossbows. The Chu army gradually showed the elite side of the Song army and prevented the Mongolian army from continuing to break the formation.

Wu Lianghetai's troops were all cavalry. After the Chu army stabilized their position, it was difficult for them to take advantage of the cavalry. Moreover, the dismounted infantry battle suffered heavy losses, and the battle reached a stalemate for a while.

At this time, the Mongolian cavalry could only attack and harass, wait for the main force of the Mongolian army to arrive, and then use their superior strength to defeat each battalion of the Chu soldiers one by one.

Soon, Kublai Khan led the main force of the Mongolian army to the battlefield. His cavalry came to a high ground occupied by the Mongolian army, erected a large banner, and used the high ground as the location of the central army.

"Your Majesty!" Wu Liang came to the stage to see Kublai Khan coming and hurried over to pay his respects.

Kublai Khan proudly rode on his horse, "How is the situation?"

Wu Lianghetai pointed at the Chu army and said, "Each of the enemy's troops is occupying the top of the hill. It is difficult for our cavalry to charge. I am afraid that it will be difficult to defeat the enemy in a short time."

Kublai Khan was riding on his horse, scanning the battlefield with his eyes, and discovered that the Chu army should have suddenly encountered the Mongolian cavalry during their march. The army had no time to gather, so it could only find favorable terrain on the road that was more than ten miles long and form formations on the spot.

Now there are tens of thousands of Chu troops, thousands in large groups and hundreds in small groups, each located on the high ground on both sides of the road, giving the Mongolian army the opportunity to defeat them one by one.

If there is enough time for Kublai Khan to attack slowly, Kublai Khan will not hesitate and he will completely destroy this Chu army.

The problem is that Kublai Khan did not know whether the Chu army had contact with Zhao Tai and whether their appearance in Huaixi was part of the Song army's plan.

If this is the case, Zhao Tai is probably already on his way, so the Mongolian army must quickly defeat the Chu army and cannot attack one hilltop after another.

Thinking of this, Kublai Khan carefully observed the battlefield, suddenly sneered, raised his whip and pointed: "The formation of the southerners is like a snake in Changshan, stretching for more than ten miles. If you attack this formation one by one, it will take time and effort, but you should stay

One army seizes his head, another army bites his tail, then the cavalry divides them, and finally they take the southern central army directly."

Kublai Khan was worthy of being a Mongolian king. He was already quite experienced in war at a young age, and he quickly discovered the weaknesses of the Chu army.

Now the Chu army has set up a classic long snake formation, and in this formation, as long as the head is pinched and the tail is nailed, it can be easily cut into several sections.

What's even more terrible for the Chu soldiers is that they are on the top of the mountain and dare not come down. The Mongolian army attacks the Chinese army, and the Chinese army basically gets no support.

Kublai Khan found that the Mongolian Communists were too difficult to defeat and could not take them for a while, so he left a force to fight with the Mongolian Communists. The main force bypassed the battlefield to defeat the main force of the Chu army, and quickly formulated a strategy.

Under the banner of the Chu army, Shi Songzhi was watching the battlefield. When he saw a large number of Mongolian troops arriving, he became nervous.

At this time, I saw the Mongolian army ascending to a high ground. After a while, tens of thousands of Mongolian cavalry quickly crossed back. Every time they passed under a hill, hundreds of cavalry were left behind.

Shi Songzhi couldn't help but wonder, "What are the Mongols going to do?"

Just when the Chu army was confused, Kublai Khan's banner descended to the high ground again, and the Mongolian army that arrived began to move towards the side of the Chu army's long snake formation.

】

The generals of the Chu army frowned, but some people still saw it, "The Mongolian army is going to go around to the flank, and then attack us directly!"

Shi Songzhi instantly understood that if the Mongolian army attacked from the front, it would have to advance from hilltop to hilltop, and then go around the flanks and attack directly seven inches away.

Kublai Khan actually had another purpose in moving the main force from the front of the snake head to the side of the elongated snake body. His previous position was between the Mongolian Communist Party and the snake head. If anything happened, it would be more dangerous to be attacked from both sides.

After moving the main force to the side of the Chu army, not only can he directly attack any point of the Chu army, but even if Zhao Tai comes to kill him, he will have enough options.

At this time, the Chu army was arrayed on the mountain, and there were Mongolian cavalry on the road below the mountain. It was difficult for the Chu army to change their formation, and they could no longer move closer to the Chinese army.

The Chu army on the hilltop saw that the situation was critical and was about to come down from the high ground and move closer to the Chinese army. The Mongolian cavalry who were resting on the road got on their horses and drove them up again.

Shi Songzhi and others could only watch helplessly as the Mongolian army moved to the flanks. The Mongolian army that had just completed the transfer gathered briefly, and thousands of infantry troops came out directly to launch a fierce attack on the hill where the Chinese army was located.

.

The hill where the Chu army's central army was located was not big. There were only about three thousand soldiers and horses guarding Shi Songzhi, but on their sides were tens of thousands of Mongolian troops.

When the Mongolian army moved to the side, the Chu army on the hill also quickly changed direction so that its front could face the main force of the Mongolian army.

Jiang Wanzai drew his sword and shouted loudly: "If you join the army to serve the country, you will inevitably die. The soldiers will protect the Chinese army and fight to the death without retreating!"

Under the banner of the Mongolian army, Kublai Khan watched thousands of infantry troops pressing up, and couldn't help but sneer, "Although the southerners are holding on to the high ground, their troops and horses are divided and cannot be supported. It is easy for me to concentrate the superior troops and defeat the enemy."
