Chapter 344: Attack from both sides

The Song army also went through more than a day of fatigue fighting, but the soldiers of the cavalry unit were well cultivated, even when they were rotated, they were not the main combat positions, and they quickly assembled into an army at will, ready to go out of the city to fight. （）

At this time, the 30,000 yuan army outside the city seemed so small and powerless, so helpless, like a child abandoned by the people, this is hundreds of miles away from the 10,000 yuan army cavalry can break through the territory of the Great Song Dynasty, and then it is only a few years to retreat, the change is so big, so unacceptable.

Sangou and Da Fat An couldn't bear it, begged bitterly in front of Zhao Tianyou, got a place to participate in the battle, and hurriedly prepared horses and weapons happily.

Zhao Tianyou didn't want to participate in this kind of battle with no suspense, but the big black horse listened to the sound of artillery for two days, and he was already irritable for a moment, if it weren't for Zhao Tianyou's resolute attitude, this guy estimated that he would have gone out of the city to kill people a long time ago.

"You want to go to war too?"

Zhao Tianyou saw that the big black horse was already equipped with a saddle, this is not its usual style, except for Zhao Tianyou's hands, others don't want to put something on it.

"Baby......"

The big black horse said in his heart, if I could speak, I should have swear a long time ago, there is such a lively scene outside the city, just don't let Lao Tzu participate, and don't let me get addicted to killing at the end of the day, aren't you afraid that I will have horse depression!

"Okay, okay, I'll take you out for a yo-yo!"

Zhao Tianyou turned over and got on his horse, and the big black horse immediately ran happily towards the city gate, and there was a crisp sound of turning hooves and bright palms along the way, and the war horses lined up on the street automatically flashed out of a passage, if he lowered his head as if he saw his own king.

Li Mingyi, who was wearing battle armor and was arranging tasks for his subordinates, hurriedly hit his horse and leaned over after seeing Zhao Tianyou.

"General, do you want to go out of the city to kill the enemy?"

"Well, I'll go out too, but the troops are still under your command, and the goal of our meeting remains the same, do our best to kill every soldier. Don't let them have a chance to scatter and flee, otherwise the people within a hundred miles of the vicinity will be slaughtered by them. ”

"Don't worry, general, as long as we surround you, you can't run a single one!"

Zhao Tianyou likes this young man with thick eyebrows and big eyes, from a young apprentice in the martial arts hall who is not in the stream, it only took less than two years to evolve into a general who commands tens of thousands of troops, which is just an excellent inspirational propaganda theme.

However, the current Song army no longer needs to advertise and recruit soldiers, and there are young and middle-aged young men everywhere to clear the way, hoping to find the help of relatives or fellow villagers, so that they can join the army and fight to glorify their ancestors.

In the past, it was a chore to be a soldier, there was hardship and tiredness, and the income was low, and if you didn't get it right, you would lose your life, and those soldiers' salaries and pensions were likely to be greedy, and your family couldn't get much silver taels, and it was a problem for the family to eat up and down.

Since ancient times, the emperor did not send hungry soldiers, but the Song Dynasty, which was the most economically and culturally prosperous in history, invested the least in soldiers, and let the soldiers be half-hearted, in order to cope with errands and eat with food, who would really work for you.

In addition, the civilian officials who accompanied the army had too much power, and they basically pinched money and food to feed the soldiers, and most of the military expenses allocated in the treasury of the Song Dynasty were privately divided in circulation, and even fewer fell into the hands of the soldiers.

However, there are also many loyal generals, in order to prevent their soldiers from suffering and starving, the countermeasures they come up with are also simple and rude, directly doubling the number of soldiers on the roster, and everyone receives double the military salary, which can just offset the loss of corruption.

There was a general who had 2,000 sergeants under his command and 5,000 on the roster, so each soldier would be assigned two or three names when he was called.

When supervising the imperial history, he happened to draw three names, all of which were drawn by one person, and the same person came out of the list every time he clicked.

made the general's face unbearable in front of the imperial history, and directly scolded him: "You three brothers don't all have the same beard in the future, just like different surnames, you have to let everyone be able to distinguish them." ”

However, these problems are all known to the imperial history, and the checklist is just a formality, because he is also greedy for silver in it, so everyone turns a blind eye, and he will not laugh at fifty steps. You say that how can an army like this have super combat effectiveness, and how can it be possible to kill the enemy after going to the front line?

However, the current treatment of the Song army has risen sharply, although the soldiers who are not seen are promoted and rich, but the livelihood of the old and young in the family will not be worried, let alone being bullied because there is a lack of male in the family. The local government confirmed that after the men joined the army, they had ripe fields close to the village that were easy to cultivate and allocated to the family, and even found someone to help them cultivate to ensure the life of the whole family.

After the perfect reward system, it is Zhao Tianyou and Wen Tianxiang who repeatedly negotiated and studied to ensure the fairness and reliability of the implementation of the system.

Now the military discipline and combat power of the soldiers of the Song Army are rapidly improving, high-quality equipment and weapons are fully equipped, the grassroots solid personnel structure, tactical skills and command arrangements exceed the enemy by several times, how can they not defeat the cavalry of the Yuan Dynasty?

The drums in Bazhou City sounded rapidly, and then the two city gates opened at the same time, and after the drawbridge fell, the cavalry of the Song army rushed towards the 30,000 yuan army from two directions with the momentum of wind and thunder.

The 30,000 yuan army left behind was not a single tribe, but composed of soldiers from three tribes in Mobei, and the same khanate to which they belonged was the Kipchak Khanate, the most dissatisfied with Kublai Khan's rule.

Möngke's son, Siriji, believed that Kublai Khan was a thief of the Great Khan's throne and was not an orthodox heir, and that he always had hatred in his heart, and that the temporary peace was also manifested because he was suppressed by Kublai Khan's powerful force.

The generals of these three tribes have already felt that something is wrong in their hearts since they were left behind, they are not very active in recruiting troops to participate in the war, and their performance in preparing for the march is not very good, but staying here is not in vain to die.

Kublai Khan left them, the original intention was to let the Song army destroy them for him, so as not to make him angry and not used to doing it himself, for Meng Ge's son, he also thought that it was a scourge, and sooner or later it would be eliminated.

They still couldn't make up their minds whether to retreat or flee, although when they came, their Great Khan had instructed them to preserve their strength and not easily die for Kublai Khan. Of course, they also had another task, that is, to participate in Kublai Khan's conscription this time, and by the way, contact the generals of other khanates, find tribes with the same hatred, and unite against Kublai Khan's rule.

Their chances were running out, and the Song army surrounded them from two directions, at an arc-shaped angle, and at first glance, they didn't mean to let them go.
