The sound of war drums continued, and the tenacious Song Army soldiers slowed down the Yuan Army's attack. After about a quarter of an hour, the Yuan Army, which had superior numbers and combat power, finally took a breath and broke through the forefront of the Zhongshun Army's defense line. .
Strength is the key to everything. As the saying goes, when two armies meet, the brave will win. This "brave" does not refer to simple morale and courage, but to the comprehensive factors of all aspects.
Nearly two thousand elite Yuan troops rushed towards the camp after paying the price of more than 400 deaths. The Yuan soldiers behind saw that the last line of defense of the Song army in front of the camp had been breached, and their momentum became strong for a while. They all got rid of their opponents and ran forward together.
The musketeers opened fire in unison, and the ammunition hit the giant shield of the Yuan army, making a crackling sound, but could not stop the enemy's advance.
"Get ready to attack," Xie Daolin, Wen Zhang and others shouted angrily.
At this moment, the artillery finally roared again.
The explosions of "Boom, Boom" covered up all the sounds on the battlefield. The soldiers of the Yuan Army couldn't help but look back and saw bursts of smoke. Many cavalry and archer troops were blown up and turned upside down. Their formations were in chaos. Vaguely, the people behind them were Everything was being swallowed up by the smoke, and the fear of firearms spread again, causing the Yuan army officers and soldiers to fall into panic again. On the contrary, the Song army officers and soldiers were in high spirits and had high morale. Under the command of Meng Tianxiang , the Zhongshun Army seized the opportunity and intercepted the Yuan Army in front about five meters away from the camp.
The continuous bombardment gradually reduced the morale of the Yuan army on the battlefield. As the only Yuan army general on the front line, Boyan felt anxious. Seeing that his soldiers were about to collapse, he quickly summoned his power and used the Mongolian Sha move. After performing the special skill "Three Plum Blossoms", in an instant, twenty-seven identical spear flowers appeared at the tip of the spear at the same time, attacking Hu Yande and Shen Mo.
In the current world, no matter whether it is a master with a spear or an expert with a sword, the number of spear flowers or sword flowers that can be wielded in an instant is only thirteen at most. It stands to reason that masters like Boyan and Shen Mo can Generally speaking, they could only pierce nine small flowers, but Boyan actually pierced out as many as twenty-seven at this moment. Naturally, Hu Yande and Shen Mo were shocked. For a moment, they didn't know how to deal with it, so they had to Take three steps back to avoid its sharp edge.
In fact, it's not that Boyan's martial arts has surpassed Yin Tianya, Yuan Ji and others, but that this "Three Plum Blossom Moves" split one move into three moves. The spear in Boyan's hand can stab out nine spear flowers in an instant. , three nine flowers overlap and become twenty-seven. However, due to the extremely fast speed and mysterious moves, it is difficult for unfamiliar people to distinguish them. Among the twenty-seven gun flowers, only nine are real. .
Boyan forced back the two masters in one move, then escaped into the crowd and wandered around. Everywhere he went, he shouted loudly: "Commanders, listen to the order, the Song army has no troops to send, we are waiting for you." As long as you defeat the enemy in front of you, you can achieve a complete victory."
"Yes, General Boyan is right," the Yuan army soldiers who heard Boyan's words thought to themselves, and plucked up the courage to fight with the Song soldiers. Since the retreat had been cut off by the opponent's artillery, there was no other way but to defeat them. Apart from the enemy in front of us, there is really no other way to go.
As the sound of cannons sounded, I put down my mallet and said to Zhang Quanyi: "The enemy has become timid. Quanyi, you can lead the remaining 100 guards to charge forward for a while. First, assist the Zhongshun Army to defeat the Yuan Army in front." ,"
"Yes, Your Majesty," Zhang Quan waved his hand, and a group of personal guards jumped over the guardrail and rushed outward.
Amidst the noise, I couldn't hear what Boyan was saying. Yuan Ji said: "Your Majesty, Boyan said that there are no more troops to send in our camp. As long as they defeat our army in front of the camp, they will
winnable,”
"This Boyan is quite capable of ideological work, but it's a pity that he was born at the wrong time," I said with a smile, "General Xie, General Zhao, you can lead the soldiers of the Royal Forest Army to send off the Yuan army on their last journey."
"Yes, Your Majesty,"
"Remember, follow the usual training methods, form a formation to fight the enemy, and do not leave alone,"
"Yes, I will obey the order,"
"Jiang Aiqing, the officers and soldiers of the 20th Army have almost rested. Let them attack together. This time we must completely defeat the enemy. I want Boyan to see that our army has many people."
Nearly 20,000 soldiers rushed out of the gate under the leadership of Xie Daolin, Zhao Huai, Wen Zhang and others. Except for dozens of snipers who still stayed on the guardrail under the leadership of Zhang Shijie, all the soldiers in the entire camp had already arrived.
Not much left.
The Royal Forest Army is well-trained. Although it has been in the army for the shortest time, its military discipline is the strictest. Even if it is the first time for the soldiers to engage in close combat with the enemy on the battlefield, they will not show any weakness. They form a team of three or five people.
The battle situation was to rely on more troops to fight against fewer troops. Those sturdy soldiers of the Yuan Dynasty, who were already exhausted, were attacked by this new force and were immediately defeated. Xie Daolin, Zhao Huai and Wen Zhang finally got the chance to go into battle. The three of them were highly skilled in martial arts and pointed.
Fighting from the east to the west, no one could defeat them. Together with the Yulin Army and the Twenty Army, the number of the Song Army exceeded that of the Yuan Army in front of the camp, and a loose encirclement was gradually formed.
Through the thick smoke emitted by the artillery fire, Kublai Khan saw a large number of soldiers rushing out of the Song camp. His heart sank. Knowing that the opportunity had been lost, he ordered the drums to be beaten to withdraw the troops. However, although the drums sounded, they were stopped.
Covered by the sound of artillery, only intermittent sounds could be heard. You must know that different war drums represent different meanings, either attack or retreat, and the drums heard by the Yuan soldiers in front were incomplete, so they were not
Knowing what the order was, and being entangled by the Song army, he had no intention of withdrawing.
"Your Majesty, please wait for the last general to go up and deliver the order," Ah Shu said after seeing this and realizing that the sound of his war drums was blocked by the sound of artillery and that he could not convey the order to retreat to the soldiers in front.
Kublai Khan nodded and said: "Okay, the generals will obey the order and retreat to the Baihe City camp."
Yin Tianya, who had returned to Kublai Khan, suddenly let out a long whistle. This whistle was extremely harsh. It was a secret signal among Tianya's senior officials, which meant to tell Boyan in front to return immediately and unconditionally.
To Kublai Khan, the sound of artillery was the sound of the King of Hell urging his life, but to Xia Gui, who was miles away, it was like the sound of nature.
"Haha, okay, okay, I finally heard the sound of the artifact again. General Bian, order the troops to march to Guanzitan immediately,"
"Yes, I will obey the order," the commander of the carriage, Bian Juyi, said loudly.
Bian Juyi, a native of Suizhou, first served under Li Tingzhi, the envoy of Jinghu. He made many military exploits and became the commander of the capital. After the merger of the two military regions of Yangzhou and Luzhou, he served as the commander of the Tenth Military Region because he was familiar with Suizhou.
Terrain was transferred to Suizhou by Li Tingzhi to follow Xia Gui.
A half-carriage of soldiers from the Jianghuai Army, led by Xia Gui and Bian Juyi, rushed from the east toward the Guanzitan Camp.
At this time, Boyan was powerless and could only sigh. Immediately, Boyan heard the sound of war drums coming from his side. Although he could hear it intermittently, he could understand that this must be an order to retreat, plus a seal. With the roar from the end of the world, Boyan knew that it was time for him to leave.
"Commanders, listen to the order, kill to the north and break out of the encirclement," Boyan finally ordered.
When the army was fighting, it was easy for Boyan to leave with his martial arts.
Boyan felt quite guilty about his decision to leave. As the deputy commander-in-chief of Zhengnan of the Yuan Empire, it was unjustifiable to abandon his subordinates and leave alone. But other than that, he had no choice but to stay and fight with Song If the army fights to the death, that can only be regarded as showing off the courage of a man. What's more, he can't resist the group fire of the musketeers. At most, he can pull a few backs. Of course, Boyan will not make this choice. He keeps the green hills and is not afraid. No firewood.
When 18,000 Jianghuai troops rushed to the Guanzitan camp, the battle was already one-sided. Thousands of Yuan soldiers who were unable to break out were divided into dozens of pieces by the Song army. Except for a few Mongolians, While the Semu people were still trying their best to resist, many Hanjin soldiers had already put down their weapons. There were endless shouts on the battlefield. Xia Gui listened carefully and repeated over and over again just one sentence, "Those who surrender will not be killed."
The emergence of the Jianghuai Army made the most powerful Yuan Army soldiers lose their intention to fight again.
Xia Gui led Bian Juyi and other major generals from the Jianghuai Military Region through the crowd, came to the guardrail, and knelt on the ground outside the camp: "General Xia Gui is here to see your Majesty,"
"General Xia, without courtesy, come in and talk," I said as I walked down the guardrail.
"Yes, Your Majesty,"
I laughed and said: "General Xia, the war is basically over. The important task of cleaning up the battlefield has to be left to your Jianghuai Army."
"Yes, the final general honors your order,"
I hummed and said to Jiang Wanzai beside me: "Jiang Aiqing, pass the order. The Polu Army, Zhongshun Army, and 20th Army will be on guard a hundred meters away from the camp to prevent the Yuan army from counterattack. Each scout will march along the road. Explore the north, and the rest of the troops will return to the camp. After cleaning the battlefield, the soldiers of the Polu Army will return to the main camp."
Just after the order was given, bursts of cheers were heard from outside the camp: "We have won, we have won,"
The soldiers couldn't help but cheered: "Long live the emperor,"
"Long live the Song Dynasty,"
These bursts of sound came in an endless stream, resounding throughout the sky.
I walked out of the gate and said to the soldiers: "Heroes of the Song Dynasty, we have won."
"We won, we won,"
The smoke of the war slowly dissipated, and teams entered the Guanzitan camp one after another from the gate. I stood by the gate and greeted every exhausted soldier. When these soldiers saw me, they suddenly became excited. I He waved his hand to indicate that everyone did not need to salute and returned to their respective stations to rest first.
Half an hour later, when I was sitting on the handsome chair in the big tent, I realized that my whole body was sore. Although I had been practicing martial arts for many years, I could hardly lift my hands because of the continuous hard beating of the war drum. I drank a big sip of tea and didn't feel hungry. Then I leaned on the chair and rested. After about half an hour, the generals came to the big tent one after another.
