I don't know when the red glow in the sky suddenly came into view.

Then, it was fast into the night.

The red glow faded and night fell. The wind at sea is also getting stronger.

The waves crashed against the reef with a rumbling sound. The sea at night is even deeper, and people can't help but feel timid.

And it was under such circumstances that Zhang Hongfan led more than 200 naval warships to the coast of Haikang County at night.

In just a few tens of minutes, Li Heng also led nearly 200 warships, totaling about 50,000 soldiers, to the inland sea of Leizhou.

A few miles behind the coast of Leizhou, there was silence in the Song army camp, only the brazier was swaying.

After Zhao Dongting came to power, he spent most of his time leading the army to fight, and he attached great importance to the army. Now the appearance of the Song army is far from being comparable to the past.

The guards stood with their chests held up, able to keep their eyes from squinting.

About two hours later, several fast horses hurried to the front of the camp, and before they could dismount, they shouted: "There is an urgent military report!" ”

As the words fell, several fast horses approached, and immediately the knight turned over and dismounted.

The soldiers guarding the gate of the camp hurriedly ran to the barracks with a few people.

Zhang Jue was woken up in his sleep.

The soldier knelt outside and said: "Military aircraft order, the Yuan army has more than 200 naval warships, and it is only more than ten miles away from the beach. ”

Zhang Jue's voice came out of the camp tent, a little dignified, "Beat the drum and gather the troops, prepare for the battle!" ”

Soon there was a deafening drum beat in the Song army barracks, and many soldiers ran out of the tents one after another, and then gathered into a team and ran outside the barracks.

In about twenty minutes, the Song army of nearly 30,000 people was all assembled outside the barracks.

Zhang Jue did not do any pre-war mobilization, but just rushed directly to the beach with the army to set up a defensive line.

Firearms such as thunderbolts, artillery trucks, and grenadiers were soon lined up along the beach again.

However, there were not many shells left in the Wyvern Army, only a hundred boxes left, piled up in the jungle behind the military formation, some of them were lonely.

And just after the Song army had just laid out the defensive line, the Yuan army led by Zhang Hongfan also rushed to the near sea, which was only a kilometer away from the beach.

Zhang Jue's hand was raised slightly, ready to order the soldiers to fire the cannon at any time. But at this time, the naval warships of the Yuan army suddenly stopped.

The Yuan soldiers on the ship threw all the anchors made of steel into the sea. The sails, too, were put down.

More than 200 naval warships of the Yuan army were quietly lying across the sea.

The rolling waves crashed against the side of the ship, rattling, but the behemoth naval battle ship did not move.

Zhang Jue stood on the bluestone on the beach, his trouser legs were very wet by the seawater. Seeing the Yuan army's naval warships besieging but not attacking, his face quickly became solemn.

Zhao Da and Zhao Hu stood next to him, looking at the sea, Zhao Da couldn't help muttering, "What is Yuan Jun doing?" ”

With the brains of the two of them, they naturally still couldn't think of Zhang Hongfan's use.

"Containment."

Zhang Jue said in a heavy voice: "The Yuan army came without attacking, and it must be intended to contain our army." Indeed, they had soldiers ashore in the rest of the land. ”

At his level, there are few tricks that can be hidden from his eyes anymore. What's more, Zhang Hongfan and Li Heng are not ghosts like Qin Han.

Zhao Da shouted: "Military Aircraft Order, since this is the case, then what are we still doing here?" ”

Zhang Jue said: "We don't even know where they want to land now, what can we do?" Is it just to return to Haikang like this? ”

He was reluctant to give up this beach, because it was indeed a good place to block the Yuan army's naval warships.

Zhao Da muttered, "Do you want them to land somewhere else?" ”

Zhang Jue pondered for more than ten seconds, and said in a deep voice: "General Zhao Hu, send your good men to quickly explore the situation along the coast!" ”

"Yes!"

Zhao Hu gave up his hand and left.

As a younger brother, his words are not as many as Zhao Hu's, and he seems to be much quieter.

Of course, the brain is still about the same.

Anyway, these two ugly men can always make moves that make Zhao Dongting cry and laugh.

Several of the soldiers of the Flying Army quickly rode away. And the sea was still quiet, and the two armies were facing each other like this.

The Yuan army was separated by a distance of nearly a thousand meters, and the night was dark, so naturally it was impossible to see the situation in the Song army.

However, before the soldiers under Zhao Hu came back, there were scouts in Haikang County who arrived first.

This scout was led by the sergeant to run in front of Zhang Jue, knelt down on one knee, and said: "Deputy military order, tens of thousands of troops landed more than 20 miles north of Haikang at night, and are marching towards Haikang. Deputy Su Jun has led the militia to stop him, he asked me to bring you a message, if he fails to stop the Yuan army, please retreat to Haikang, be sure to hold Haikang County before the emperor rushes back. ”

When Zhang Jue heard the soldier's report, his brows furrowed suddenly, "Deputy Su ordered the militia to stop the Yuan army?" Isn't that a joke? ”

His face was a little anxious.

Although the imperial court has been recruiting militia these days, up to now, there are only a few thousand militia in Haikang County. How can this stop tens of thousands of troops? Didn't Su Liuyi go to die?

But Zhang Jue's question, the scout obviously couldn't answer him, just silenced.

Zhang Jue gritted his teeth several times, and finally said to Zhao Da: "General Zhao, you lead the Flying Dragon Army to help the Su Deputy Army, and you must not let him have any accidents." ”

Su Liu Yi is a very popular minister, and as a deputy military commander, he absolutely cannot afford to lose. If he died, it would also be a great blow to the morale of the Song Dynasty soldiers.

And now the Yuan army's naval warships are staring at the sea, but Zhang Jue has no way to send too many soldiers and horses forward.

Moreover, he is only less than 30,000 soldiers, even if he is divided, how much can he divide?

He could only send the most elite Flying Dragon Army over, and he didn't have much hope of blocking the Yuan army, just begging Su Liuyi not to die on the battlefield.

When Zhao Da heard this, he hesitated and said: "Deputy military commander, then ...... here"

Zhang Jue sighed: "There are not many shells left, it doesn't make much difference whether you use them or not......

More than 100 boxes of artillery shells, a total of just over 1,000 shells, and the effect of such a confrontation between the two sides is indeed limited.

When Zhao Da heard this, he arched his hand: "Then the two hundred flying dragon troops will be left here to open fire, and only the rest of the soldiers will be led forward." ”

"Okay."

Zhang Jue couldn't help but instruct again: "Don't let there be any accidents in the Su Deputy Military Aircraft Order." ”

Zhao Da nodded, turned around and ran towards the Flying Dragon Army.

Although he is honest, he is not stupid. knew that Zhang Jue sent him because only their Flying Dragon Army could protect Su Liuyi.

The Flying Dragon Army is not just a grenadier, they are also a special force carefully built by Zhao Dongting with a comprehensive quality far beyond ordinary soldiers.

The subjects they usually practice were transferred by Zhao Dongting according to the training subjects of the special forces of later generations, and naturally there are rescue subjects.

In just a short time, Zhao Da and Zhao Hu quietly left with nearly six hundred flying dragon troops.

And shortly after they left, the Yuan army at sea also began to launch a tentative attack on the beach.

The Yuan army put down a lot of small boats on the naval war ships, and the soldiers sat on the small boats, facing the waves, quietly rowing to the beach.

In the dark night, Song Jun could not see the situation on the sea. I only faintly saw that the naval warships of the Yuan army had not moved, and thought that they had not attacked.

It wasn't until the Yuan army's boat appeared in the light of the torches and was faintly visible that the Song sergeant suddenly exclaimed, "The Yuan thief is here!" ”

Such exclamations are getting more and more intense.

Zhang Jue stood on the reef and heard the shouts of these soldiers, and without waiting for the soldiers to report, he suddenly shouted: "Thunderbolt, release!" ”

The bolts shot out to the surface of the sea.

Explosions sounded over the sea.

In the night, the quiet sea did not know how many Yuan soldiers had been killed.

And at the rear of the Yuan army's ship formation, Zhang Hongfan was sitting in the cabin, and when he heard these explosions, he smiled.

He didn't think that these advance troops would be able to capture the beach at all, all he wanted was to make sure that the Song army was still here.

Their real killer move lies on Li Heng's side.

As long as Li Heng successfully approaches Haikang County, then this Song army will definitely not be able to take care of each other, and when the time comes, they will take the initiative.

Zhang Hongfan seemed to be a little excited in his heart, and felt that the time for revenge was coming. Even, he was already thinking in his heart, after taking Haikang County, how to humiliate those royal relatives and nobles in the Song Dynasty. The defeat of Qizhou made him hate the Song Dynasty to the core.
