Chapter 372: Finally Dispatched
Cheng Yue grinned and said, "Yes, do you like it?" I love it so much, I didn't expect to get such a wonderful birthday present today, it's really unforgettable. Actually, I'd love to make amends a few more times until you're satisfied. ”
Nuhan Gege smiled and waited for Cheng Yue to get dressed, and said, "It's easy to say, how can there be such an opportunity in the future." ”
Cheng Yue hugged her waist and smiled: "Opportunities are created by people, but just a moment ago, could you think of being my woman?" ”
Nuhan said angrily: "It's not that you are bold, I am forced!" You have to be careful, don't get carried away. ”
Cheng Yue hugged Nuhan into his arms and kissed him, and said with a smile: "Don't worry, I'm not a person who doesn't know the severity, and I won't put you in danger." ”
The two of them sorted out their clothes, checked each other's expressions, and felt that they could not show their feet, so they walked out of the sleeping tent one after the other.
Talahai was very relieved to see that Nuhan had finally appeared, and pulled him to his side to take a closer look, Nuhan's cheeks were ruddy, his beautiful eyes were wavering, and his complexion seemed to be better than before he passed out, and he said with a smile: "Sister, you have frightened us, has Cheng Yue made good amends?" ”
Nuhan couldn't help but blush, and said, "He...... I have paid for my sins for a long time. I thought about it, I really can't blame him, so don't mention it again. ”
Cheng Yue coughed lightly and said: "The minister felt deeply guilty, but he could only cry and sincerely apologize, but fortunately, Queen Nuhan understood the righteousness and did not pursue the minister's sins, which made the minister panic." ”
Talahai had never seen Cheng Yue bow his head and confess his guilt, so he thought it was very funny, and said with a smile: "Didn't you listen to Nuhan just now? Don't mention it again, you have to forget about it completely. From now on, they will be more loyal to the Great Khan. to live up to Nuhan's hard work. ”
Cheng Yue replied respectfully. Talahai personally sandwiched a few mouthfuls of food for Cheng Yue, and watched Cheng Yue eat it with gratitude on his face, thinking that he had a plan, and his heart was extraordinary.
Today is Cheng Yue's birthday, and the four concubines all read a few words of congratulations, and they also followed the concubines to learn to sing happy birthday songs for Cheng Yue.
Cheng Yue secretly flirted with Nu Han and Sa Bu, and kept making small movements under the table, this birthday was very exciting.
The next day. Kublai Khan sent Namuhan to send a heavy congratulatory gift, and after Cheng Yue thanked him, Namuhan did not leave, but talked to Cheng Yue about the situation and the contrast of the strength of many Chinese and left armies against their opponents.
Kublai Khan faced Haidu's 90,000 troops, and Ashu and Boyan had to confront Timur's 70,000 troops, and the difference in strength was very small, so although the armies had won these days, they did not have a big victory. Only Cheng Yue's opponent is weak, and it seems easier to win.
Cheng Yue understood that this was a euphemistic reminder to send troops as soon as possible, and calculated that the two armies had been facing each other for more than half a month. It was time for me to make a move, so I agreed.
Namuhan accomplished his mission. smiled and retreated, always polite to Cheng Yue.
After Namuhan left, Cheng Yue called Zhang Xiaozhong and Lu Shikui into the tent and said, "I have not allowed you to send troops before, just for today." Now I'm going to hand over a big thing to you. Xiaozhong, I want you to go to the camp where Hehu specially holds Han slaves, rush in and kill it without leaving a piece of armor, and rescue as many Han people inside as possible, and Lu Shikui is responsible for receiving you. Remember three things, try to use guns as little as possible, don't fall in love with war, and save people is the most important thing, do you understand? ”
The two of them had long been eager to fight, and Lu Shikui had to rely on meritorious service to gain a firm foothold beside Cheng Yue, and he was overjoyed when he heard this, and saluted at the same time: "Yes." ”
Cheng Yue smiled and said, "Go ahead, let the Mongolians see how powerful you are!" ”
The two immediately went back to gather their troops. Cheng Yue's 5,000 cavalry basically couldn't move, and the two selected 5,000 elite soldiers from the Yuan army, and then brought their own personal soldiers, a total of 6,000 elite cavalry, and rushed out of Cheng Yue's camp!
Lu Shikui almost forced Zhang Xiaozhong to death before, but now he is killing the enemy together as his lieutenant, which feels amazing. The Yuan army was the first time to obey Cheng Yue's orders, and there were five hundred Cheng Yue's elites on the side, and there was a special excitement in his heart.
Six thousand men and horses rushed towards the river, and when the scouts saw it, they immediately signaled. They did not relax their vigilance for a moment, Duwa and He suddenly had an order, if they saw Cheng Yue sending troops to come, try to hide away or hold the camp, it seemed that it was not difficult for them, so the Mongolian army was not afraid. After seeing the signal, those who could go back returned to their yurts, took out swords, guns, bows and arrows, and prepared to fight.
After Zhang Xiaozhong and Lu Shikui crossed the river, they did not stop, but plunged directly behind He Hu. Of course, this is not a new trick, it can only be said that these two people are very bold.
The Mongolian army immediately raised wolf smoke, explaining the strength of the two and the direction of their advance, and reminding each other to be careful.
Zhang Xiaozhong followed Tanma for almost half an hour, and Tanma pointed to the large yurt that appeared in front of him and said: "Commander, this is the place where the Han people have the most slaves, and it is estimated that there are at least four or five thousand people. He Hu was very well prepared, and the garrison was almost four or five thousand people. ”
The Mongols' military camp in addition to the Chinese military tent, there will rarely be a horse rejection and the like, the Mongols are good at attacking but not good at defending, someone is attacking the camp, they will use cavalry guerrilla to deal with each other, after discovering Zhang Xiaozhong's army, the cavalry inside are quickly on the horse with a bow, ready to fight.
Zhang Xiaozhong did not pause, and ordered: "Zhou Shifang, Ren Qing, you lead a thousand people to attack the left road, Chen Yi, Si Wenjie, you lead a thousand people to attack the right road, I lead 1,500 people to attack the middle, we will kill back after we meet in the formation, remember, don't fall in love, use less guns, save more people, kill!" ”
The generals rode their horses and hurried hard, and 3,500 elite soldiers rushed straight towards the more than 4,000 Mongolian cavalry on the opposite side.
Although the Mongol cavalry had superior strength, they did not collide head-on with Zhang Xiaozhong's men and horses, but immediately dispersed and outflanked left and right, which was the usual tactics of the Mongols.
They didn't know that this trick was in Zhang Xiaozhong's arms, he was leading troops to save people, and killing the enemy was just a matter of convenience.
Zhou Shifang and Chen Yi led their troops to shoot at the Mongol cavalry on the periphery, each of them had more than a hundred elite Song troops, and the new crossbow that Cheng Yue issued to them exerted great power, the range was farther than the Mongols' bows and arrows, and faster, the Mongols could shoot five arrows with one arrow. One person shoots, two people install, and the cooperation is seamless.
The Song army wore three to five pieces of silk ** on each body, covered with steel sheet soft armor, and was very well protected, the Mongolian army could not get close to them, and the arrows they shot were almost harmless.
The Mongol army and the Yuan army chased each other, each with casualties, but the Song army, except for a few people who were slightly injured, was completely undamaged. What's more, the Cheng army was so badly wounded by the Mongol cavalry in front of them that the Mongol cavalry was reluctant to fight them, and immediately walked around when they saw them rushing over.
Seeing this, Yuan Jun's eyes were red with envy, and he couldn't wait to get all their equipment on himself. I even sighed in my heart, I had heard that the marshal was sympathetic to the soldiers, and I didn't want to be able to do it to such an extent.
You must know that the head-to-toe equipment of the Song army is several times stronger than the best heavy cavalry of the Mongols. Because silk ** is very expensive, the Mongols can only wear it to more than 100 households, and there is only one, and the Song army has several pieces for everyone!
The weapons in their hands and the armor on their bodies cannot be compared with the Song army. The sabers of the Song army had the upper hand over the scimitars of the Mongol army, and severed scimitars could be seen everywhere.
The steel used in the armor of the Song army is also very different from that of the Yuan army, and the armor of the Song army cannot be penetrated no matter where it is, and the parts of the Yuan army and the Mongolian army can be easily penetrated as long as they can move. In contrast, the combat strength of the Song army increased greatly, and it was difficult for the Mongolian army to deal with it.
After Zhang Xiaozhong led his army into the camp, he searched for Han slaves everywhere. The slaves didn't know what was going on, and they didn't dare to resist, so they knelt down in front of Zhang Xiaozhong and waited for the fall.
Zhang Xiaozhong shouted loudly: "Wait a minute, Cheng Yuecheng ordered me Zhang Xiaozhong to rescue you out, I would like to go with me, hurry up and get on the horse with your belongings!" Dashuai is a Han Chinese, and he will never let you be slaves again! ”
When the slaves heard this, they were all moved to tears. They are all Han people in the north, and they don't have much closeness to the Song people in the south, but Zhang Xiaozhong's words knocked into their hearts, making them remember that they and the Han people in the south were originally compatriots. Cheng Yue sent his generals to save them, just because they were Han!
The slaves got up and said, "Please General Zhang try to take the horse as much as possible, even if we die, we will follow the general back to thank Marshal Cheng!" ”
Zhang Xiaozhong nodded, left Sun Zhiwang to organize slaves, and led his troops to meet the Mongolian cavalry.
Zhou Shifang and Chen Yi saw Zhang Xiaozhong rushing out, and immediately followed to cover on both sides.
Zhang Xiaozhong was the commander of Cheng Yue's army, and he killed hundreds of Mongolian soldiers and was famous. After the Mongolian cavalry learned that it was Zhang Xiaozhong who led the army this time, they all pointed at Zhang Xiaozhong and yelled, and they all wanted to kill him and make a special contribution.
Several thousands of households led troops to meet Zhang Xiaozhong, Zhang Xiaozhong's personal soldiers used rainstormy arrows to open the way for him, Zhang Xiaozhong followed the rain of arrows to rush into the enemy formation, brandishing double swords, there was no enemy under his hands, the screams were endless, and the severed limbs and corpses flew everywhere.
Zhou Shifang, Ren Qing, Chen Yi, and Si Wenjie rarely had a chance to perform, and they were even more red-eyed.
After Zhang Xiaozhong joined, the advantage of the Yuan army was even greater, and the more than 4,000 Mongolian cavalry could not withstand the onslaught of more than 3,000 Yuan troops, and they did not dare to withdraw as usual. He Hu made it clear that these Han slaves were of great use, and they must be optimistic.
The sound of killing in the battlefield shook the sky, and the Mongolian cavalry resisted desperately, helpless, and more and more people were killed, but they could only hold on.
He Hu and Du Wow were taken aback. Cheng Yue didn't move, and he stormed the slave camp as soon as he moved, what did he want to do? Other battalions can feint and escape, but this is absolutely impossible. Fortunately, Cheng Yue did not send many soldiers and horses, so he should be able to deal with them.
The two urgently led 8,000 troops and rushed out of the Chinese army camp. (To be continued......)
