Chapter 730: Descended

Di Hun finally formed a formation here, thinking that he could hold on for a while. But this can only be said that he has no knowledge, and it can also be said that his brain reaction is a little slow, and after paying a heavy price, he still fails to realize that this is a weapon revolution in history, and the battlefield is no longer a world of fast horses and strong bows. And his faith became the death knell he sounded for himself.

At the end of the battle, the Song army basically completed the encirclement, and the two armies faced each other two arrows away. In the direction of Changhua, there were scouts who came to spy and found that after the Yingzhou army was surrounded, more than 1,000 township soldiers were organized to come to the rescue, but the combat effectiveness was too weak, and they were defeated by the cavalry battalion.

Ni Liang asked about the situation, and Haosheng appeased him, saying that the emperor's personal expedition was to recover his homeland and expel the Tartars. But he didn't dare to let these enthusiastic volunteers go into battle to fight, so as not to interfere with the battle of the army. But they could not be left idle, so they were allowed to clean up the battlefield, collect the capture, and search for the fleeing rout.

What made Ni Liang feel uneasy was that there had been no trace of the enemy in the direction of Lin'an County, and this place was closer to Lin'an County, and he had two judgments on this: first, there were no soldiers to send in Lin'an County; The other is that His Majesty has taken action, and Lin'an County does not dare to move. But no matter what the reason, his most urgent task at the moment is to annihilate the enemy in front of him first.

"Dutong, we have surrounded the enemy, do you want to rest and fight again?" Xiao Ting came over and asked.

"Not allowed!" Ni Liang glanced at him and said in a deep voice.

"Dutong, the sergeants have been marching for two days, they are already very tired, and today they have been fighting fiercely for a long time, and they have not yet entered the water!" Xiao Ting said a little anxiously.

"You can't die if you eat one less meal, but if you can't annihilate the Yingzhou army as soon as possible, you will die when its reinforcements arrive." Ni Liang said coldly.

"Dutong, I know it, but I ......" Xiao Ting still didn't give up, and wanted to say more.

"Are you the only ones who feel sorry for these brethren? They are all recruited into the army one by one, is this marshal hard-hearted! Ni Liang roared.

"All the generals, don't dare to be lowly!" Xiao Ting hurriedly saluted.

"The artillery is all in place!" Ni Liang picked up the binoculars and looked at the battlefield and asked.

"The capital is unified, the rapid-fire artillery has occupied a favorable terrain to set up a position, and the Ben Thunder Gun is also in position in front of the formation, waiting for orders!" The marching Sima said.

"Order to disrupt the shooting, disrupt the enemy formation, and when the enemy formation loosens, the whole army will immediately launch an attack and annihilate the enemy army!" Ni Liang said.

"Yes!" Guan Tongshou immediately passed the order to the front in flags, and then Ni Liang left the command post of the Chinese army and moved forward again, less than 200 steps away from the front line before stopping......

"Columns become horizontal columns!" Sun Jin heard the sound of cannons, and he also realized that the moment of decisive battle was coming, so he changed the battle formation. The shortening of the battle line made it three rows of horizontal formations into six rows, and the formation was tighter.

"Check the firearms!" After the formation was converted, Sun Jin ordered again.

"The Seventh Regiment is ready for battle!"

"The Eighth Regiment is ready for battle!"

"The Ninth Regiment has completed combat preparations!" After a burst of commands, the regiments reported the situation.

"Get on the bayonet and get ready to attack!" After Sun Jin gave the last order before the battle, he turned over and dismounted, drew his musket, installed the bayonet with a slight 'click' sound, and strode forward, standing at the forefront.

According to the rules of the new army code, in order to increase the density of firepower, all officers are obliged to join the queue to participate in the battle. Sun Jin was reprimanded by the capital, and he was also angry, and after completing his own work, he joined the battle sequence as an ordinary soldier and stood in the first row of the battle line as a striker. And as he enters, he gives up his power, and if he runs away or hesitates, anyone behind him can kill him, without any privilege.

'Boom, boom, boom...... On the beach without any shelter, the Yuan army still lined up in an upright way, which was equivalent to completely exposing themselves to artillery fire, and each shell would take several lives. The shotgun fired covered a larger area, and although the soldiers in the front line tried their best to bury their bodies behind the big shield, how could the big shield with wooden skin block the bombardment of the artillery, and the end result was often the destruction of the shield and the death of the people, without the slightest effect.

Di Xun also understood that he had no way to retreat, so he also arranged the most elite soldiers in front of the battle, hoping to stop the Song army's attack, but the result was that they were buried under artillery fire in batches. After several rounds of artillery fire, the Yuan army was already a corpse in front of the formation, and the blood flowed like a river, but the Yuan army also broke out at this moment, and every time there was a vacancy, the back row immediately filled it, trying to block the bombardment of artillery fire with flesh and blood.

"Great Song mighty, Great Song mighty, Great Song mighty!" The bravery of the Yuan army also shocked the soldiers of the Song army, thinking that they were the best soldiers in the world, but they did not expect that there were such fierce soldiers among the enemy army. And Ni Liang also realized the seriousness of the problem, he knew that sometimes fighting a war is about morale, if he is intimidated by the opponent's momentum and loses his courage, he will not be able to fight this battle again in the future. As for the solution, the little emperor often said, you are ruthless, we are more ruthless than you, you are not afraid of death, we are lighter than you, we are lighter than you, only by completely suppressing the opponent in momentum, can we completely subdue and fear.

"Great Song is mighty!"

"Great Song is mighty!"

"Great Song is mighty!" With Ni Liang's roar, the officers and men of the whole army raised their guns and shouted, everyone understood that this was the final mobilization before the decisive battle, and it was also a signal to launch an attack. Therefore, everyone roared hoarsely, releasing the pride in their chests, the timidity in their hearts, and the desire for victory.

"Forward!" The commanders of the battalions at the head of the team waved their swords violently and loudly gave the command to advance, and then the command flags of each regiment, battalion, and capital all pointed forward, and the sound of war drums that urged people to forge ahead also sounded, which made people's blood surge.

The rows of soldiers marching in rows ...... not only as neat as knives and axes, but also the leather boots on the river beach all fell on the same rhythm, making a loud noise, which seemed to have overshadowed the roar of the artillery firing, suppressed the explosion of the cannonball landing, and the turbulent Tianmu River seemed to be silenced by the momentum of the Song army, which only made people feel as if only their sonorous and powerful footsteps were left between heaven and earth......

"Is this Song Jun?" After the Song army launched an attack on the whole line, the sound of artillery gradually stopped, and the wind quickly blew away the gunpowder smoke on the battlefield.

Di Xun has been fighting on the battlefield with his father since he was a child, and participated in several battles to pacify the south of the Yangtze River, but the performance of the Song army made him very disdainful, once he left the shelter of the city, he seemed to not know how to fight, and the performance in the field was also unbearable.

But the Song army encountered today gave Di Hun a lot of surprises, first of all, he dared to go deep into the hinterland of Jiangdong for hundreds of miles, quietly ambushed on his own way, not to mention how he did it, this courage alone is enough to make people admire; Then the Song army blew up the river bridge, cut off their own retreat and trapped themselves in this twenty-mile radius, in fact, while surrounding themselves, they also put themselves to death, once they failed, they were no different from their current outcome; The strictness of discipline in the Song army also exceeded his expectations, tens of thousands of people were hidden in such a small space, and it would be difficult to do without strict military discipline.

However, after Di Xun was attacked at first, he did not realize the seriousness of the situation, and he was very unconvinced, but he just thought that the Song army had caught him off guard with a sneak attack, and it was precisely because he was afraid of fighting head-on with the Yuan army and was afraid of field battles. Therefore, he thought that as long as he stabilized his position, he would reverse the disadvantage, and he could teach these Song Jun who dared to challenge him a lesson. However, Song Jun didn't seem to give himself a chance at all, and kept chasing and fighting, and his tenacity was no less than that of the Mongolian army, but he was lucky to feel that he had a chance to turn the tables.

But the performance of the current Song army made Di Xun no longer dare to report any illusions, the array conversion of tens of thousands of people was not only not chaotic at all, but also moved forward as a whole without missing the slightest flaw, and even the steps of progress fell on the same point, this kind of well-trained army not only had not seen it, but had never even heard of it. He thought that not only could he not do it, but even the most elite Great Khan pro-army in the Yuan army, the cowardly Xue army, could not do it.

"Wanhu, what should I do?" At this time, a lieutenant general beside Di Xun watched the surging Song army gradually approaching and asked in a trembling voice.

"What should I do?" Di Xun twisted his face to look at the adjutant general, whose face was pale and his lips trembled, and asked with a wry smile. At this moment, he could already feel the ground trembling under his feet, and the soldiers who were ready to fight to the death just now had their swords and spears hanging down, and they involuntarily retreated. And the soldiers and generals around him also showed panic on their faces, you must know that these are warriors who have survived a hundred battles, but they are also drenched in cold sweat and at a loss.

"What can I do?" Di Xun asked himself again, his 10,000-strong team is all from the north, including many children and relatives from their hometowns, some of them have died here, do you want to bring them all to death? At this moment, the Song army was already approaching a stone's throw away, and the soldiers in the front had already raised their guns and were ready to shoot, and he knew that the morale of the army was now completely low. And if you take a step back, it is a surging river, there is no detour and defensive depth at all, if you continue to fight, you will either die under the sharp firearms of the Song army, or be driven into the river and drowned, even if you want to defend the baggage, the arrows will be exhausted, how to defend?

"Wanhu ......," the deputy general exclaimed in surprise.

"......" Di Xun suddenly woke up from his contemplation, looked up and saw that the archers in front of him did not know whether they could not bear the pressure of the Song army, or they were in a cowardly hand, and they released their arrows as soon as they entered the firing range, and the others also shot arrows on the string, and for a while the arrows shot like locusts towards the approaching team of the Song army. Seeing this, his mind was blank, and he didn't know how to deal with it.

"Wanhu, it's going to collapse!" The adjutant exclaimed again.

'Bang, bang, ......' Di Xun rode on the horse in a daze, the footsteps of the Song army echoed in his ears, and the exclamation of the deputy general made him sober up, but seeing that the Song army did not seem to be affected by the falling arrows at all, and still marched forward with rhythmic steps, even if someone fell from the arrow, someone immediately filled the vacancy, and continued to discharge a line to approach without stopping, but did not let go of a shot. On the other hand, the archers in the front row were just throwing arrows indiscriminately, some of them had already abandoned their bows and ran into the middle of the formation, but the sword and shield soldiers and pikemen who should have moved forward did not advance but retreated, and the officers could not stop drinking.

"Let's go!" At this time, the Song army had approached within sixty paces, and the cold light of the bayonets was dazzling, making people palpitate. Seeing that it was difficult to recover the decline, and there was no other way to go except for the annihilation of the whole army in the re-battle, Di Xun sighed and said in a deep voice.

"Ten thousand households have an order, and it has been lowered!" As soon as Di Hu's words came out, the generals around him shouted in unison. The pro-soldiers shouted in the formation, and the flag officer could knock down the handsome banner, and then the soldiers abandoned their weapons to the ground and knelt on the ground, lest they be 'mistakenly killed' by the Song army.

"What a defeat!" Seeing this, Di Xun secretly sighed, turned over and dismounted, took off his saber and bowed to the front of the battle, accompanied by several generals......

"There is an order to stop advancing!" Suddenly, the sound of the drums changed and turned into silence, and the flags of each regiment were erected, and the sound of the password sounded repeatedly, and all the divisions stopped at the same time.

"It's falling, how did they fall?" Seeing that the front suddenly fell to his knees, and the swords and guns were abandoned, the most unacceptable thing was Sun Jin, who was holding back the fire in his belly, but now he had nowhere to vent, staring and shouting.

"What's wrong with the enemy army falling?" At this time, Xiao Ting rushed to the front of the battle and said to Sun Jin, who was red-eyed.

"Alas, I gave the order to shoot earlier!" Sun Jin cried and regretted with a sad face, if he hadn't imagined that the first brigade would shoot at close range and inflict heavy damage on the enemy, why would he wait until now to shoot and miss the opportunity, which made him regret it, but there was no way.

"There are all orders, no one shall be killed without permission, no property shall be taken without authorization, and those who violate the order shall be beheaded!" At this time, a signal soldier galloped in the queue to give orders.

"Don't stand stupid, get ready to surrender!" Xiao Ting patted Sun Jin, who was still angry, and pointed to the enemy general who came out of the enemy formation.

"I can't behead him!" Sun Jin was still extremely disappointed, and looked at what they said. But he was not carried away at all, and ordered to send a guard to monitor the enemy soldiers, and ordered all departments to change the horizontal column into a column, and make way for the prisoners to pass. And he straightened his uniform, handed over the gun to his subordinates, and stepped forward with Xiao Ting to accept the surrender of the enemy generals, and asked them to carry the seal letter to the capital to present it, and then sent the disarmed enemy soldiers to the rear camp......
