971. The monks leave

"Kill!"

Gao Tianzong also saw this scene, his eyes were red, but he could still only lead the soldiers to rush forward to kill.

As far as the eye can see, there are war horses everywhere.

He didn't know how many people were still in the regiments, but even if there was only one soldier left, he could only rush forward and kill.

At the foot of Drum Mountain.

Ah Shu also noticed the sudden sound of explosions in the middle of the army.

When a scout came to report to him, he pointed to the place where the explosion had occurred and asked, "What happened to that burst of artillery just now?" ”

The scout came from there, and when he heard this, he hurriedly replied: "Marshal Hui, there are dozens of Song Army grenadiers who have committed suicide by pulling mines. ”

"Larley killed himself?"

Ah Shu was slightly stunned, and then became a little stunned, waved his hand and sighed: "Well, you go down!" ”

The scout looked at Ah Shu suspiciously, and then ran away. He couldn't understand why the marshal's mood had suddenly changed.

As everyone knows, Ah Shu recalled the time when he followed Meng Ge to fight in the east and west.

At that time, he followed Meng Ge's expedition to the southwest, leveled Dali, and swept through the grasslands, as if, at that time, the warriors on the grassland were also as fearless as these Song army.

I don't know when the warriors on the grassland have gradually changed.

They are no longer so courageous, and many of them are gradually addicted to the wine of power.

Even if it is him himself, he has become more and more sophisticated in the imperial city over the years, such as fighting for power and skillful scheming, but he is gradually no longer the marshal who took the lead in the past. At this moment, he suddenly realized that he seemed to have forgotten how to set an example for the soldiers.

Is it just because of old age?

No!

It's because I don't have the original belief in my heart anymore.

After the destruction of Jin, the territory of the Yuan Dynasty spanned endless distances, although the emperor Kublai Khan was still ambitious, but the people below were not so keen to expand the territory.

Thinking about it, Ah Shu suddenly muttered, "If only I could go back to the beginning...... How nice it ......."

At this moment, this famous marshal of the Yuan Dynasty finally showed some old age on his face.

Dozens of minutes passed.

Gao Tianzong and others protected the monks, and finally they were able to rush out with the iron cavalry of the Yuan army.

The vast land appeared in the rain ahead, and it was not the war horses and armor that made people feel a little desperate.

"Let's go!"

"Withdraw!"

As soon as they rushed past the iron horse, Gao Tianzong and the others hurriedly shouted.

The original six-sided Daxu was now left on only four sides, and they marched westward in unison.

The soldiers guarded the monks of Yongquan Temple and ran in a hurry.

There are nearly 6,000 soldiers, and only about 2,000 people are left until now.

This is still with the help of the warrior monks of Yongquan Temple, otherwise, maybe the Fuzhou garrison will not be able to rush out of these Yuan army iron cavalry.

It's just that although he rushed out at this moment, he was far from being out of danger.

The iron cavalry of the Yuan army had already turned the dock, always sticking to the back.

Gunshots and screams were mixed.

Rao is a dragon in the Fuzhou garrison, and there are soldiers who are always falling.

I have to say that Ashu arson to the mountain is indeed a clever plan. The original deployment and plan of Gao Tianzong, Che Hongyu and others were completely disrupted.

The Fuzhou garrison could only fight and retreat.

Another mile to go.

Finally, I saw the mountains again.

Che Hongyu was at the forefront of the army, and he didn't care about much, so he hurriedly ran towards the mountains.

Only mountains and rivers can stop the iron cavalry of the Yuan army. Otherwise, sooner or later, these people would have to be devoured and destroyed by these Yuan armies.

Gao Tianzong and the others saw Che Hongyu walking towards the mountain, and they also understood what he meant, and immediately ran towards the mountain with the soldiers.

When he came to the mountain, he hurried up to the mountain.

Only at this time, it is inevitable that there will be fewer and fewer soldiers under their command.

The six legions that were originally ordered to come to resist Ah Shu, with a total of more than 6,000 soldiers, are afraid that there are only about 1,000 and 5 left.

Many of the monks of Yongquan Temple died in the chaotic battle just now, and less than half of them remained.

All the warrior monks were covered in blood.

There were also many wounded in the army.

This battle was truly tragic. Except for the time when the Great Song army resisted the Yue Li army, it was rare to be so tragic.

Fortunately, the Yuan army's iron cavalry finally had no choice but to rein in their horses at the foot of the mountain. Their foot soldiers haven't been able to catch up, and Gao Tianzong and the others have finally escaped temporarily.

After arriving at the mountainside, Gao Tianzong and the others turned around and continued westward.

After running through two more hills, the shouts of the Yuan army behind him were finally inaudible.

It is also thanks to the fact that the soldiers of the Fuzhou garrison are usually trained hard, and the monks in Yongquan Temple are also not less trained, otherwise, just running so far is enough to exhaust them.

But by this time, everyone was also approaching the limit of physical strength.

Gao Tianzong saw that the Yuan army was thrown some distance, so he let the soldiers rest in place. Then, he and Che Hongyu walked towards the old monk Huizhi.

The commanders of the original six regiments, by now, two have been killed.

Several people walked up to the old monk Huizhi, and saw that many of the monks had red eyes, and they all sighed in their hearts.

This battle is fought like this, and no one feels good. The soldiers under their command died far more than the monks of Yongquan Temple.

Just because they are generals, no matter how sad they are, they can't show their weakness in front of the soldiers.

Gao Tianzong looked at the old monk Huizhi with a slightly pale face, and said, "Master, you will take all the senior monks to Changle County later!" ”

The old monk Huizhi was slightly moved, "General, aren't you going?" ”

Gao Tianzong said: "The military order we received was to resist these Yuan troops for five days, but until now, it has only been two days. We have to continue to deal with them. ”

"But ......"

The old monk Huizhi said: "There are only these soldiers left in the army, how can you continue to deal with these Yuan troops?" ”

Gao Tianzong only said: "We have our own way to do this, master, you can rest assured." ”

But in his heart, he was saying to himself, even if he can't do it, he has to do it.

If they hinder the Ashu army for one more minute, Changle County may be broken by one minute late, and the chance of holding out until the Yuan army arrives is also a little greater.

Che Hongyu also said beside him: "Yes, master, you don't have to worry about us about this." ”

When the old monk Huizhi heard them say this, he couldn't help but sigh lightly, "Then everyone...... Take care......"

He also understood that he and these monks who did not know martial arts were staying here just to add a burden to the army.

He stood up and called the host of the Luohan Hall over.

At this moment, the armor on the body of this Arhat Hall host of the True Martial Realm was already covered with blood. If it weren't for the ring scar on the top of his head, I am afraid that no one would have imagined that he would be a monk.

"Senior brother."

In the past, the Luohan Hall presided over the ceremony to the old monk Huizhi.

The old monk Huizhi folded his hands and said, "Senior brother, you will lead all the warrior monks of the Luohan Hall to stay here and continue to resist the Yuan army with the generals!" ”

"Yes."

The host of Luohan Hall did not hesitate and immediately agreed.

This made Gao Tianzong and others a little embarrassed.

Gao Tian said: "Master, this is not necessary. We are soldiers, and it is our duty to serve the country, so let the warrior monks escort you to Changle County! ”

The old monk Huizhi said: "Although we are monks, we are also people of the Great Song Dynasty. General Gao didn't want to push it back. ”

The presiding officer of the Luohan Hall clasped his hands together and said: "Amitabha, the slaughter of sentient beings by the Yuan army is a demon, and it is also the responsibility of our Buddhist disciples to eliminate demons and defend the way. ”

This Luohan Hall host is not only amazing in martial arts cultivation, but also extremely good in Buddhism, at this time there is no sadness or joy in his eyes, "You soldiers to protect my Yongquan Temple disciples from the mountain, I don't know how many lives to pay, you generals also let our Buddhist disciples do something......"

Gao Tianzong and the others were silent.

In the end, the monks of the Luohan Hall of Yongquan Temple stayed after all.

After about ten minutes, the old monk Huizhi left with the rest of the monks and continued to the west.

After Gao Tianzong and the others reorganized the army, they did not go west, but went to the south of the mountain.

To the south, it is because the official road is on the south side of the mountain.

They were worried that the Yuan army would continue to go to Changle County despite their few people, and in this way, even the old monk Huizhi and others might encounter danger.

The rain is still falling.

The monks and soldiers in the army were mixed, all of them wet, but their steps were extremely firm.

When they were about to reach the foot of the mountain, everyone really saw that the Yuan army was heading west. At this time, the rear army of the Yuan army had already walked past the side of this big mountain, and they could only see their backs.
