Building pontoon bridges and crossing the river to attack the enemy is a very common means in warfare, and no general suddenly realizes it when he sees the river, and then finds a way to cross the river.

Especially in large armies, when the number of people reaches a certain number, the cost of requisitioning ships is too high, so building bridges has become the only means.

Of course, with a water as wide as the Yangtze River, it is impossible for you to build a bridge.

And on this day, the Jindi army came from all over the field, and the means of building a pontoon bridge were really eye-opening.

When the two pontoon bridges were placed, two large boats floated downstream, and the big boats were full of men with long shields and bright light armor, which was obviously a rare heavy infantry nowadays.

Once the two large boats are in place, even the gap between the pontoons will be filled, allowing the front end of the pontoon to be close to the shallows.

And that's not all, a group of soldiers began to lay on the bridge deck with wooden planks that had already been prepared, and in less than two hours, the two pontoon bridges were already taking shape on the surface of the Yellow River.

The Tang army was dumbfounded, the rhythm was wrong, and they felt extremely uncomfortable, shouldn't crossing the river be a strong attack? What are you doing with all these tricks?

Obviously, the generals of the Don Army on the river beach realized that it was impossible to inflict mass damage on the enemy on the river.

In fact, the unwilling Tang army, under the order, drew their bows and shot, and the arrows rose and fell like raindrops, but they were blocked by the canopy of the pontoon bridge and gained very little.

Sufficient pre-war preparations made the Jindi army more calm, and they were already a division of a hundred battles, and they were more able to adapt to the atmosphere of the war.

Almost in the blink of an eye, everything was ready, and it was only time to cross the river and fight......

Li Po, who was in a high place, smiled with satisfaction, he felt that he had grabbed the corner of the goddess of victory, and he needed to hold on to it, and he couldn't relax even for a moment.

"Beat the drum, pass the order to General Wei Chi, cross the river ......"

The rumbling of war drums is the most powerful note of war, and when it doesn't appear on the battlefield, it means that countless blood will be shed.

The captain's flag began to move forward slowly, the rude roars of the officers continued, and groups of soldiers, under the leadership of the officers, armed with swords, guns and round shields, walked up the pontoon bridge in order, and quickly marched to the opposite bank.

This is different from last year's forced crossing of the Fengling Ferry, there is no longer a need for any fighters, and the enemy on the other side will not easily give up the beachhead, there is no doubt that the Tang Army is a very powerful enemy.

Even though he has fought with Li Tang repeatedly over the years and won many victories, Li Po has never denied this, and now looking at the princes of the world, only he and Li Yuan can have a complete bureaucratic and military system.

The remaining ones, even Xiao Miao, couldn't do this, because when they started, they gathered all kinds of rebels, which made their military system more and more chaotic.

The advantages of the Tang army have always been obvious, they received a large number of late Sui official troops, combat effectiveness and cohesion are not comparable to other princes, the only unfortunate thing is that they met Li Po who came out of the borderland, and his command was the more elite former Sui border army, so the Tang army was dwarfed.

The young and vigorous Jindi soldiers boarded the pontoon bridge and staggered forward quickly, and the next step was to grab the beach.

At this time, the bows and arrows of the Tang army had stopped, and thousands of Tang troops set up arrays on the river beach, and under the orders of the officers, they slowly moved forward, obviously defending the river beach.

The heavy infantry jumped off the bow of the ship, and the shallow water began to set up, while others dragged the iron ropes to nail them into the ground to complete the final process of the pontoon.

Compared with the Tang Army, they were too thin, and the follow-up soldiers were quickly joining them.

As the Tang army moved forward, the war drums on both sides of the strait were intertwined, and the shouts of killing finally resounded on the shore.

The Tang army did not leave much time for the enemy to prepare, and the rain of arrows intensified on the river beach, and the Jindi soldiers who had climbed the beachhead fell to the ground one after another.

But once the fighting begins, it will not stop because of this casualty.

Soon the two armies collided together at the beachhead, swords and guns were raised simultaneously, shouting and killing, arrows dancing in the air, swords flashing, and countless people fell to the ground screaming in the impact, and blood flowed out wantonly.

But this was not the most tragic moment of the battle, the Jin army continued to replenish the military formation through pontoon bridges, struggling to block the offensive of the Tang army.

At this time, the situation at the beachhead is somewhat odd.

Originally, the defending side would have more options, and generally speaking, the half-crossing attack was the most commonly used tactic, that is, let a part of the enemy cross the river, and then gather and annihilate it, demoralize the enemy, and then hold the beachhead, so that the enemy sighs.

Of course, this is certainly not the same as a strategic half-way attack.

But the Tang army chose to stick to the beachhead, the most secure and rigid tactic, which made the two militaries come into contact with each other, and it became a life-and-death situation.

This shows that the generals of the Tang Army lack confidence and do not have the confidence to fight the enemy head-on and win the battle, but then again, this has indeed caused a lot of trouble to the Jindi army.

It was difficult to make up for the disadvantage in numbers, the beachhead seemed to be crowded with people all at once, and the front defense line was constantly compressed by the Tang army, and soon the hedgehogs gathered together and did not stop retreating.

Casualties are one thing, and they are almost unable to gain a foothold for the follow-up soldiers who have landed on the shore, and once the Tang army launches an offensive, it has no intention of stopping, and it has the potential to push the enemy down the Yellow River with all his might.

Seeing this, Li Po in the high place only frowned slightly, and he didn't have much to worry about, the war when the army crossed the Liaoshui gave him a lot of experience.

On the one hand, the Tang army on the other side did not have many troops, and on the other hand, he believed that the battle for the beach was actually only the beginning for the army he led, and the Tang army on the shore would definitely not be able to stop the footsteps of the army.

In other words, once he made up his mind to cross the river and enter Kansai, the battle for the beach was just a local battle, which could not affect the overall situation, and only how much effort it would take.

Just like on the other side of the Liaoshui, the army of more than 200,000 Goguryeo could not stop the Sui army from forcibly crossing the beachhead, and the performance of the Tang army at this time actually proved this on the side.

Li Shenfu ...... Li Po pursed his lips, is this to leave all the Tang troops guarding Feng Yi here? That's a thank you to him.

In fact, what he is thinking about now can only be how to make the army cross the river as quickly as possible before the Tang army gathers, so to speak, with his vision, temporary disadvantages and setbacks are nothing.

Even if the Tang Army can block Wei Chixin's troops on the shore today, it will only be a small trouble for him who is in command of the army.

What's more, is Wei Chixin really willing to be easily blocked by the Tang Army? So what other face does he have to stand alongside other generals who are full of decories?

…………………………

A big man in armor jumped off the boat vigorously, this is a battalion lieutenant, the backbone of the army.

As soon as he got off the boat, an arrow grazed his face, bringing out a bloody wound, and he only turned his head sideways, and kicked and beat the people in front of him away.

His face was hideous, and he howled like a beast, "Fuck, rush up, rush up for me." ”

The first time the Youzhou Han set foot in Qin, he greeted the Qin people fiercely in his own way.

With a ferocious momentum and rich combat experience, the cultivated monsters killed several people in a row as soon as they arrived in front of the formation, and took the lead in rushing into the Tang Army's military formation.

This is a typical example of a soldier, and it can also indeed arouse the courage of the Chinese army, and his subordinates only shouted, and then followed behind the battalion captain, desperately squeezing in.

The Tang army was very dense, making this charge the most dangerous hand-to-hand combat, poof, poof, all of which were the sound of knives and guns entering the flesh, which was enough to make people feel terrified.

On the other side, the same story is being staged, the army is fighting to the death, and two teams of dozens of people are inserted into the Tang army formation like sharp knives, and continue to move forward.

This is very similar to the Battle of Liaoshui, where the brave men rushed forward, frustrated the enemy's formation, and opened the door to victory for the follow-up army in the strongest way.

There was a slight disturbance in the Tang army's formation, and the offensive was frustrated.

Soldiers jumped from the boat and finally stabilized their footing in the shallow water, and the big man with a strong shield in his hand struggled forward, pushing the enemy back and back.

The space is getting bigger and bigger, there are more and more soldiers crossing the river, hundreds, thousands, increasing every moment, the arrows of the Tang army have turned the river beach into thatched grass, the screams are endless, and the blood flowing down not only stains the river beach red, but also makes the river water by the river have a strange color.

But this did not stop the enemy's pace, and when the Jin army gained a foothold, their terrible character was revealed, and they had grown up in the wars of the late Sui Dynasty, and they were the most proficient men in killing, they were well-trained, full of morale, fully equipped, and fearless of casualties.

In the face of such an army, it is no longer important what kind of enemy it is, what matters is the value of victory and whether their casualties match.

A sun, moon and star flag was finally waved in the wind by the river, and what was even more coincidental was that while the Tang army was constantly retreating, their flag fell crookedly.

At this point, there is no suspense left......

Li Shenfu was furious, and immediately wanted to send troops to continue to seize the beachhead with the enemy, and the generals under his command also asked for orders one after another.

But Li Shenfu hesitated in the end, behind them was Feng Yi, there was no room for mistakes, and such an enemy was entangled by the river, in case ...... He didn't dare to think about it, and he didn't dare to bear that kind of outcome.

So Li Shenfu made a decision that seemed to be very wise at the time, but was criticized later, and retired back to Feng Yi.

This was actually the result of Li Tang's slow response, and the riverside defense line was too long and the troops were too scattered, which was also an important reason for the defeat in the battle of Hetan.

And when the military order for the Tang army to withdraw was issued, the situation on the river beach was out of control.
