278.Upheaval of the Battle Situation (3)
That night, outside the city of Wuzhou, the army that the Yuan army chased out of the city failed to catch up with the Song army led by Wen Tianxiang and Zhang Jue.
The next day, Zhao Dongting led the Tianxian army out of Duanxi City and rushed south to Gaozhou.
The only remaining people in Duanxi City were also taken away by him.
The current prosperity of Leizhou has already spread here, and with Zhao Dongting personally guaranteeing that they will arrive in Leizhou safely, of course these people will not hesitate. In the army, there are even soldiers who carry those elderly and sick people who have difficulty moving, which has attracted thousands of Duanxi people to be quite grateful to Zhao Dongting.
In the past, no emperor had ever done this.
Although Zhao Dongting has not completed the task of restoring the country now, his pro-people actions undoubtedly make these people feel very fresh.
The emperor no longer seems to be so out of reach.
In the past, the word emperor was as unattainable as a god in the hearts of the people, but now, they really feel that the emperor is by their side.
Looking at Zhao Dongting's chariot in the army, there were even tears in the eyes of some people.
The court finally cares whether they live or die.
And in the evening of this day, halfway from Wuzhou City to Rongjin County, on the banks of the Yujiang River. After all, the Song army was still chased by the cavalry of the Yuan army behind.
Most of the Song army's troops were foot soldiers, and they also carried ordnance, grain and grass, and it was obviously not easy to outrun the famous Yuan army's iron cavalry.
The sound of horses' hooves behind him was loud, and the shouts were boiling. The banner of the Yuan Army's iron cavalry fluttered, pressing up at an extremely fast speed like a black cloud.
Looking at the past roughly, I am afraid that there must be tens of thousands, which can be described as all over the mountains.
Ge Lichun, Ge Xiuhong, Liu Yong, and Yan Mingling all commanded the cavalry of the rear army, and when they saw this scene, they couldn't help but have a heavy face.
The cavalry of their four armies combined was less than 20,000 men. In the face of such a Yuan army, the chances of victory are obviously slim.
The Wen military machine order and the deputy military machine order Zhang in front were afraid that it was difficult to know that the Yuan army's iron cavalry had chased after them, and they understood that they could only improvise at this time.
Changeable, and how?
At present, it is a dead end, they are responsible for the break, and there is only one way to block the Yuan army.
In a short period of time, the Yuan army's iron cavalry was no more than a kilometer away from them.
The Yuan army obviously had no intention of stopping and fighting them, and the war horses showed no signs of slowing down.
On the south side of the rear army of the Song army, Liu Yong and Yan Mingling took the lead in raising their swords and shouting: "Brothers, kill!" ”
Without hesitation, they led the cavalry under their command to rush towards the Yuan army without hesitation.
Both of them were born in the rebel army, but they had a lot of achievements and wiped out many Yuan troops. Courage and faithfulness are naturally there.
Ge Xiuhong and Ge Lichun had to be calmer, they were still trying to figure out a way, but when they saw that the Tianmeng Army and the Tiangui Army had already rushed up, they had no choice but to go up to meet them.
The earth shook.
The two armies spread for miles, colliding like two torrents.
Ge Xiuhong and his army each had 2,000 firearm cavalry, and they shot one after another when they were still hundreds of meters away from the Yuan army's iron cavalry.
The cavalry in the front row of the Yuan army was suddenly shot countless times and fell off their horses.
However, this did not stop the momentum of the Yuan army's iron cavalry.
It is not for nothing that the iron cavalry of the Yuan army can be famous all over the world and expedition to Europe, and the soldiers are invincible. Their cavalry is really powerful.
In the previous siege battles, the prosperity of their cavalry could not be reflected. But now it is a vast wilderness, but it is an excellent room for them to play.
In the chaotic gunfire, the cavalry of the two armies quickly rushed together, and the confusion was in chaos.
For miles ahead, the Song army hurried along, and the tired foot soldiers could hear the sound of gunfire and explosions behind them.
The Yuan army caught up.
Soon someone went to report to Wen Tianxiang and Zhang Jue, and then, another scout came in a hurry.
When Wen Tianxiang and Zhang Jue learned that the Yuan army's pursuers had arrived, their faces were extremely solemn.
They all knew that the iron cavalry of the Yuan army was powerful, and there were definitely not a few iron cavalry under the command of Boyan and Ye Su'er, who chased out of the city.
Last night, when they were on their way, they had the cavalry behind them lay a thunderstorm on the road. But I didn't think about it, the Yuan army still caught up so quickly.
If it weren't for the large number of soldiers, would they have been able to pass through the thunderstorm so quickly?
The two looked at each other, and they both knew that the cavalry of the Song Army behind them was in danger.
However, there is nothing to be done at the moment.
From the moment Wen Tianxiang decided to withdraw from Wuzhou, he had already expected that they might encounter such a dangerous situation after leaving the city.
It is impossible for tens of thousands of soldiers to withdraw to Jinjin safely, because the Yuan army is definitely not easy to deal with.
Even, whether he could bring these foot soldiers back to Jinjin, Wen Tianxiang didn't know the bottom in his heart.
You know, there are still tens of thousands of troops who haven't shown up.
The two were silent for a few minutes, and Zhang Jue asked, "Military Aircraft Order, is it really to let the cavalry soldiers behind die like this?" ”
He used to just guard Kuizhou, and rarely did such a strong man break his wrist.
Wen Tianxiang's eyes showed an unbearable look, and he hesitated several times, but in the end, he nodded.
In fact, from the moment they were cut off, he already had the idea of sacrificing them to protect the army. This is clear to everyone.
Ge Lichun, Ge Xiuhong, and Yan Mingling were also very clear, but at that time, no one showed any dissatisfaction.
Because, at present, only they can complete the task of the Song army.
Could it be that it is impossible to let the hard-hit Tianju, Tianyong and Tianfu Army break off?
In the past, Wen Tianxiang was in various places in the Great Song Dynasty and the Yuan army, and he was often run by the tail, and he did a lot of such things.
This is not because he is ruthless, but because the situation is compelling. Sometimes, as a manager, you don't have a choice.
The most important thing is to keep as many troops as possible. At least that's what Wen Tianxiang thinks.
It is precisely because of this that he resolutely wants to withdraw from Wuzhou.
In fact, he was also very painful and self-blaming, but he couldn't say it to anyone, so he could only endure it himself.
Wen Tianxiang is actually only forty-five years old, which can be said to be in the prime of life, but he looks as vicissitudes as if he is fifty or sixty years old. This is because he has so many things in his heart that it is not an exaggeration to say that he is exhausted.
He rubbed his forehead vigorously, gritted his teeth, and said, "Pass the order, let the soldiers speed up!" ”
He didn't know if Ge Xiuhong and the others would be able to block all the Yuan troops, if the Yuan army's iron cavalry rushed from both sides, they would be in trouble.
Soon, this order was passed down, and the speed of the Song army marched a few points faster.
Later, Ge Xiuhong, Yan Mingling and others led the cavalry and the Yuan army's iron cavalry to fight bloodily.
The Yuan army really had the intention of bypassing from both sides and pursuing the Song army's foot soldiers. However, Yan Mingling and the others arranged the soldiers extremely wide, firmly blocking the entire avenue, and stifling their thoughts.
Ge Xiuhong and the others are also experienced generals, and they undoubtedly also want to know what strategies the Yuan army might have.
It's just that they spread their soldiers too widely, and they undoubtedly have great weaknesses.
In total, there were less than 20,000 cavalry, and the wider the battle line pulled, the weaker the defensive line. They were outnumbered by the Yuan army, which would be more dangerous.
If it weren't for protecting the foot soldiers in front, they should gather in groups and form a sharp knife formation to fight with the Yuan army.
In the final analysis, it's all because there is no choice at this time.
Even, Ge Xiuhong and the others didn't think about going back alive. They only thought that they could do their best to delay the Yuan army.
There was an extremely desolate atmosphere that had long since spread among their army.
After the broken soldiers and horses, few have a good end, since ancient times, most of them.
The battle was extremely tragic.
In this scorching meadow, which had been baked for many days, soldiers on both sides were constantly cut off their horses, lying among the weeds and never moving again. The heat waves rising from the ground seemed to blur their faces a little.
The grandeur of each of them can be called epic, but here, it seems sparse and ordinary.
They are all unsung heroes.
These soldiers who fought on the battlefield, whether they were the Song army or the Yuan army, were actually respectable.
Most of them are fighting for their nation. Although, there may be many of them who are numb and just go with the flow, but the blood they throw is undoubtedly worthy of admiration.
Ge Xiuhong, Liu Chun, Yan Mingling, Liu Yong and other generals of the Song Army rushed to the forefront, and in a short period of time, they were already covered in blood.
With such a strong battle situation, no matter how high the martial arts are, they will only be as small as ants.
About ten minutes have passed, and in the formation of the Tianmeng Army, the Great Banner has fallen.
Next to Liu Yong, the fierce general carrying the big sword shot several cold arrows in the chest, blood spilled from the corner of his mouth, and he fell off the horse.
He was originally a master of the Zhongyuan Realm, but with the big sword on his shoulders, he had no time to resist dozens of cold arrows shooting at him.
And at the moment when the Daxu flag fell, there was a Tianmeng sergeant who immediately dismounted and picked up the Daxu, and then followed Liu Yong's steps.
It's just that after another few tens of seconds, the soldier who carried the big rope was shot down by a cold arrow again.
One by one, the soldiers rushed up and picked up Daxu.
Liu Yong was covered in blood, trembling, his eyes were red, there was no discipline at all during the fight, and he was completely numb.
Daxu is a symbol of the army. The army is not in a desperate situation, and the big army will not fall.
