494th Battle of Thang Long City 12

These Song soldiers, who had already escaped from the ascension to heaven, suddenly heard the sound of fighting behind them, and when they looked back, they found that the large army still behind them was desperately intercepted by the enemy troops who came out of nowhere.

So, without saying a word, the soldiers, who had already run away, immediately turned around and rushed behind the enemy with their weapons in hand.

This is the advantage of Cai Dao recruiting soldiers, all of them choose Lingnan people, because behind the soldiers who have left, there are their brothers, relatives, and even brothers-in-law. If you leave your relatives behind and run away, won't you be scolded to death by your relatives at home after you go back?

The two sides scuffled together.

The same surprise, almost the same troops.

On the scene, it was the Song army that had the advantage. Although the soldiers of the Song army had already run out of three miles, this distance was just warm-up for them, and they didn't even sweat on their bodies. You know, when they were in Leizhou, they had to run ten miles in full gear every morning.

And now, these soldiers have nothing on them except a weapon, and they can be said to be relaxed.

The sword and shield soldiers, who had already thrown away the medium-sized shield on their bodies, now held in their hands a small round shield that had been carried behind them in addition to the waist knife.

And those archers did not take out their bows and arrows at this moment, and the two sides scuffled together, and most of the archers were useless. So, they also drew the long knives at their waists and joined the warband. Only those elite archers are capable of shooting the enemy in such a chaotic situation.

And the spearmen are even more amazing, and the spears designed by Cai Dao for them can be broken down and combined.

This spear is composed of three sections, which are combined to be two meters long. In the middle section is an ash rod, both of which are one meter long, and the two ends are short guns with spear heads, and one is half a meter long including the spear head. When choosing pikemen, you can't choose those who are tall, but choose those who are stocky and have a stable chassis are the most suitable criteria.

Therefore, by the time the army fled quickly, most of the people had thrown away the ash pole in the middle, and now they only had two short guns left in their hands.

The pikemen of the Song army, no, should be called double spearmen now, they really showed their power at this time.

I saw that the two short spears in his hands sometimes pierced the enemy's abdomen, sometimes used as shields, and pushed away or blocked the enemy's weapons, the spears were like swimming dragons, and the people were like fierce tigers, and the entire spear battalion rushed like a sharp spear so that the enemy had to scatter in all directions.

Moreover, these two enemy troops rushed out from the side road, and naturally could not catch up with the width of the middle road, although the Yue army numbered more than the Song army by 1,000 people, but on the narrow road, it could not release the advantage of troops at all.

Even though the Song army faced desperate resistance from two sides, it always maintained a situation of fighting more and fighting less.

Seeing that the Song army was about to rush over, at this moment, behind the Song army, far away, he could stand tall and hit the ground...... Moreover, the sound of horses' hooves became louder and faster, and the louder and clearer they were, the louder and louder they became, the more excited the enemy troops who intercepted the Song army.

Because, the generals and soldiers of the two Dayue armies who were responsible for intercepting them knew in their hearts that there must be reinforcements from behind the Song army, and it was a cavalry force of no small size.

These cavalry units did not need much in number. It only takes the impact of a hundred cavalry to completely crush the Song army in front of you.

The generals of the Song army naturally understood this.

Guo Zhongxiao communicated with his generals with his eyes, and the four generals of Di'an, Yao Pingzhong, Guo Shuyong and Guo Shukang took the initiative to take their pro-army to rank. Turn the horse's head and face the approaching cavalry troops.

At this time, the tripping rope still has to be pulled, this time it is the rope used by the reconnaissance team to climb the city, in addition to hemp, there are also women's hair, silk, and the steel wire specially produced by the Yizhou Island Iron and Steel Factory, which should be called the steel god, with today's technical ability, the steel plant can not pull out the extremely thin steel wire like the later generations.

If this thing is stopped in the road, unless you control the horse to jump over, or find the source, and lift the steel nail where the rope is buried, you will not be able to cut it with a knife.

At this extremely critical moment, the rear of the Great Yue Army, which suddenly intercepted the Song army from the northeast, actually sounded a loud charge.

This is the Song army's official charge order.

Neither side of the scene could figure out what was going on over there, but both sides also knew that that direction was where the Song army troops were located, and once they crushed the enemy in the northeast, the Song troops who were intercepted here would be able to escape immediately.

Therefore, the general of the northwest direction immediately gave an order to let the soldiers on his side start to charge forward without dying, and he personally took his own personal guard to become the overseer, and if anyone dared to stop for a while, the general's spear would be directly greeted to whom.

However, the northeast defense line was so chaotic, and the middle defense line was naturally empty.

Therefore, Dean couldn't care about Guo Zhongxiao's face, he immediately assigned tasks to each branch of the army, and pulled out the pikemen and threw them directly into the enemy's northeast defense line, while the sword and shield soldiers fought and retreated, only needed to defend the intersection of Long Street and West Street, and the archers quickly rushed through the empty passage in the middle, and then, with bows and arrows to shoot at the rear of West Street, they immediately left with Guo Zhongxiao's chariot.

As for the four of them, they landed in the middle gap and used bows and arrows to 'name' the enemy generals and soldiers who rushed in front of them.

Immediately afterward, once the pikemen and reinforcements have completely extinguished the enemy forces on East Street, the sword and shield soldiers can retreat from the direction of East Street in a fight. And Dian, the four generals and their own soldiers were responsible for covering the retreat of the sword and shield soldiers.

Then, with the help of their horsepower, they could escape the pursuit of the enemy's cavalry from due north.

As for the situation in Dongjie, although Dean didn't know who the general of the reinforcements was, he knew in his heart that this support army must have been pulled out of between his teeth by Cai Dao's kid to help them.

And the generals of this support army are nothing more than three candidates, Zhi Keda, and the two unfamiliar but extremely capable generals beside Cai Dao, that is, Xie Feibao and Shi Ernai.

Regardless of any of the three of them, Dean believed that the general would definitely come up with a good way to completely block the entire East Street, so that the cavalry of the Great Yue Kingdom and the subsequent pursuing troops would not be able to pursue them from this road at all.

After that, things were much easier.
