In an offensive and defensive situation, if you make a mistake in anticipation, you will lose your life. Similarly, if you make a mistake in a battle, you will lose more people's lives and even the national fortunes of a country. To be honest, in this siege battle, Zhao Hao also made mistakes. He overestimated Tuhuan's loyalty to this dynasty and underestimated his determination to flee desperately, resulting in passivity and danger in the resistance war, but at the moment he misjudged a son's love for his father.

In the time when Zhao Hao had just taken a breath, Lao Zhang led the army to turn around and kill back. The combat vehicle has the advantages of easy mobility, high carrying capacity and strong protection, but it is relatively slow to move when deploying the formation, and has high requirements for the terrain. After blocking the gap in the defensive line, the car battalion immediately leveled its position, adjusted the parking spaces, blocked the vacancy of the two workshops, and prepared for the next battle.

"All into the carriage, face the enemy on both sides!" Qin Buxing, the commander of the second regiment of the personal guard, heard the warning and immediately gave an order.

One of the most obvious drawbacks of the vehicle in combat is that it can only face the enemy on one side under normal circumstances. On the one hand, the chariot is mainly used for defensive operations, enclosing in a circular battle formation; On the other hand, the carriage should be left open to facilitate the handling of weapons by soldiers and at the same time to disperse the smoke from the guns in the car. At the moment, their enemy was an enemy army surrounded under the city, so they arranged a horizontal battle formation in order to close the gap and expand the killing surface of the firearms.

Therefore, the defense on the back of the horizontal chariot formation is very weak. At the moment, the enemy cavalry is approaching in an instant, and not only will there be no time to change the formation, but it will also allow the enemy in the encirclement to take advantage of it. Therefore, it became the most appropriate choice to enter the combat vehicle, they could rely on the solid hull as a cover, and fight the enemy on both sides, and the combat environment became harsh compared to the victory of the battle, or even the avoidance of heavy casualties.

As soon as the camp had completed its preparations, the light cavalry on the enemy's periphery was already approaching, and they quickly approached the defensive line and quickly shot a rain of arrows from the sky, 'crackling' and knocking on the carriage board. The sturdy hull provided them with reliable shelter, and at the same time they began to counterattack, firing through the firing holes to block the enemy horses entering the firing range, and almost every salvo, the enemy horses fell from their horses, but the carriages were soon filled with choking smoke and obscured their vision, forcing them to raise the roof panel to disperse the smoke.

'Boom ......' Because the rapid-fire guns in the gun carriage were initially facing the circle, they also began to fire after repositioning the guns, and the countless projectiles ejected from the muzzles swept the enemy cavalry and horses within the radiation range to the ground, and the situation was only relieved for a moment. When the second round of artillery was fired, the enemy cavalry that was hit was blown to pieces, and flesh and blood even burst on the carriage. But the gunners were nervous, realizing that the enemy cavalry was already approaching the chariot, and they would soon enter the firing corner.

It was not only the artillery that faced the crisis, but also the other tanks, and the enemy cavalry, which had been hit frequently, quickly discovered the weakness of the vehicle formation. When approaching the vehicle in front of you, it will be difficult for the chariot in a row to get support from other vehicles, especially the vehicle at the end. They quickly avoided the powerful artillery wagons and turned into columns to charge the chariots close to the moats, intending to break a gap from here.

The enemy troops in the encirclement also quickly discovered that someone was coming to help, and immediately launched another attack on the corner of the northeast defense line, they knew that this was the last line of life, and desperately rushed to kill, and gave reinforcements to rendezvous and fight their way out of the encirclement. The battalion instantly fell into the dilemma of fighting on both sides, they relied on the sturdy carriages to tilt the rain of bullets at the fastest rate of fire to the enemy, but the two fists were invincible to the four hands, and they could not stop the approaching enemy cavalry for a while, and the newly stable defense line became crumbling again.

"Concentrate all artillery fire on the enemy forces in the encirclement!" Guan Hong saw that the defense line that the guard regiment had just established was in danger, and that his side lacked cavalry at the moment, and His Majesty had been leading the capable fighters to fight for a long time, the men and horses were sleepy, and the casualties were heavy, even if he stepped forward, most of them would be drowned in the fleeing enemy group, so he immediately gave an order.

"Order all units to line up and attack the enemy!" Guan Hong also realized that the moment of decisive battle had come, as long as the enemy offensive was suppressed again, the overall situation would be decided, and on the other hand, shrinking the encirclement could also limit the enemy's range of maneuver and compress them into one place to gather and annihilate.

With the transmission of the two orders, for a time all the artillery of the Song army within the range began to fire fiercely, pouring shells on the enemy troops who broke through, while the mortar detachment, which was easy to maneuver, moved forward despite the danger of firing their guns. At the same time, the drums of war also sounded suddenly, and the various units under the command of the trumpet banner walked out of the fortified formation, and pressed the enemy group from three sides in the usual linear queue......

"Let go of me, or military law will be engaged!" On the high slope beyond the battle circle, there was a sudden burst of roars, but they were quickly drowned out by the rumbling sound of cannons and the footsteps of the marching procession.

"Your Majesty, even if you kill your subordinates, you must not let Your Majesty be in danger!" Tan Fei was holding the reins of the horse, and he looked at His Majesty's raised horsewhip and said loudly without fear. Several of the guards tried to drag the little emperor off his horse, surrounded by guards, but the shields they were holding were facing inward, as if to prevent anyone from breaking through through them.

"Ran away, I asked ...... you guys" Zhao Fei's war horse was held by Tan Fei and the reins were held, and the guards hugged the horse's neck and pulled the horse's tail, although it neighed unwillingly, it couldn't move. And although he was also struggling desperately, the heroes were hard to defeat with four hands, not to mention the powerful internal guards, who were held by their waists, dragged their legs, pulled their arms, broke off the fingers that were pulling the reins, and forcibly dragged them off the horse, leaving only their mouths open and unyielding loud threats.

"Your Majesty, at present, our army has entered the city, and has taken control of the city walls and gates, and is advancing. The enemy forces outside the city had already suffered heavy losses and could hardly do anything. The overall situation has been decided, even if you run away, you can't set off the storm with some remnants of the army! Tan Fei took the opportunity to take the war horse and asked his subordinates to quickly take it away, squatting down and persuading the half-lying little emperor.

He knew that under the current situation, the annihilation of most of the enemy army was basically a foregone conclusion, and even if a small group of enemy troops stood out and surrounded him, it would be difficult to change the balance of strength between the two armies and reverse the crisis. However, this achieved the strategic goal of 'annihilating the living forces of the two Huai regions, seizing the land south of the Huai River, and changing the Jiangnan without evidence' formulated by the little emperor. So it's really not a big deal to run a bare pole, and it doesn't hurt at all.

But if the little emperor is allowed to take risks again, he really has three longs and two shorts, and the Great Song Dynasty will fall into an ownerless dilemma. Then it fell into the situation of the clan seizing the heir again, and under the disputes of various forces, the court inevitably went to split. Even if several pregnant concubines gave birth to the prince and were able to inherit the unification smoothly, it was a fluke that the Great Song Dynasty produced such a talented young emperor, and no one would ever believe that a baby in swaddling clothes could inherit the ability of the little emperor, and the Great Song Dynasty. Therefore, Tan Fei made up his mind that even if he was convicted and died, he would never allow the little emperor to be in danger again.

"Okay, okay, you let me go first!" Zhao Yu tried to struggle a few more times, how could he break free, thinking about Tan Fei's words was not unreasonable, so he gave up the resistance with the knowledge of the times.

"The subordinates are guilty, please punish Your Majesty!" Tan Fei asked everyone to let go, and did not remove the outer ring, but he knelt on the ground to plead guilty. The emperor is the son of heaven and the king of a country, not to mention doing something to him, even if he is verbally offended, it is a great crime of disrespect, and he can be punished by the nine clans.

And he also knew that he had imprisoned the emperor, and the situation was really critical, and he had to do it as a last resort, but he also committed a serious crime. On the other hand, he is the head of the emperor's guard, and he must obey His Majesty's words, and must not disobey or even question it. But at the moment, not only did he disobey the order, but he could also order the guards to restrain him, which was obviously a violation of duty.

However, Tan Fei knew that the most serious thing was not only that, but the guards obeyed his orders. To make it clear, what the emperors are most afraid of is not the rebellion of foreign ministers, but the betrayal of their cronies or overstepping their power. Because the rebellion of the foreign ministers is still far away from it after all, and it will not endanger his life for a while; But the ministers are different, as the people around him, if he betrays, he may lose his life at any time. Now what he is doing is violating the taboo of those in power, even if he is killed on the spot, it is light. Even if the emperor is lenient, he will no longer give absolute trust, but will transfer away from his side.

"Please punish Your Majesty!" Several internal guards helped the emperor up, tore his messy military uniform for him, and bowed down to salute.

"I should have cut you!" Zhao Yu stood up, slammed his fingers on Tan Fei's head, and then kicked him again, "Don't be pretty, get up quickly!" ”

"Thank you, Your Majesty!" Tan Fei raised his head and saluted again in disbelief, he was knocked and let go.

"Get out of the way, get out of the way, don't get out of my way!" As if nothing had happened, Zhao Yu pushed away the guards who were blocking him, and then dragged the telescope hanging on Tan Fei's neck.

"Your Majesty......" Everyone got out of the way, Tan Fei followed timidly, standing beside the little emperor, wanting to say something but not knowing how to speak.

"Look, look, Tuohuan is really going to escape!" Zhao Yu ignored it and looked at the battlefield with a telescope. However, under the sudden attack of the enemy troops on the periphery regardless of casualties, they actually rushed to the front of the car, and pulled the two battlefield vehicles over with lassoes, tearing a gap in the defensive line. Seeing this, the remnants of the enemy in the encirclement were only bombarded by their own fierce artillery fire, and they rushed to the gap without their lives, and one of them could be seen wearing gold armor rushing over under the escort of everyone, and he frowned and said to Tan Feiyan dissatisfied......
