Li Xiang knew that the Mongols had suffered a big loss this time, and in terms of the character of the Mongols, they would definitely not give up, and this time the Mongols were likely to send a small force of cavalry to raid the land of Shaoxi Mansion and Luzhou.

Sure enough, the entire southwestern region of Sichuan soon fell into the attack of the Mongol cavalry, of course, this is not a full-scale war, the Mongol cavalry has always fought and left, and at this time the state capitals are closed the city gates and hold on.

The goal of those Mongolian cavalry was very clear, that is, they were coming towards Shaoxi Mansion.

After Li Xiang thought about it, he summoned Zhao Er and the others and instructed him: "Wait a minute, once the Mongol thieves come, you must immediately order your subordinates to take out the fire guns and load the bullets, and first transfer a team to the south of the city to sneak in the private houses." Leave two squads here to prevent accidents, and send a squad to support when there is an emergency. Another team followed me. ”

The Mongolian thieves finally arrived at noon after everyone had finished eating.

Thousands of Mongolian cavalry were divided into two groups from three or four miles south of the city, and galloped around the left and right of the city to the south of the city. After they saw the galloping speed of these cavalry, they understood why the bureau master wanted his people to spend a lot of physical strength to dig trenches and large earth pits where they could hide before the battle, and this was all for their own good.

With these trenches and pits hidden underground, the enemy cannot be spotted until they get close, and they can calmly use the tiger squat cannon and steel crossbow in their hands to meet the enemy head-on.

The leader of the thieves sent by the Mongol Empire to plunder this area was the fierce general Hua Hua'er, who was stained with the blood of the Great Song people. However, in a battle, this person was shot in the thigh by a rocket, and his cronies desperately snatched him back and spent a month in bed before his leg was sealed. But he always felt that something was going on in his thighs, and if he moved a little bigger, he would break out in a cold sweat. No one knew what the bloody hole in his leg was made of, and many Lang Zhong couldn't cure him. No way, since then when he goes out, he has to ride a horse as long as the distance is a little longer.

This time to retaliate at the same time, it is also equivalent to robbery, several teams of Mongolian cavalry can be said to be a bumper harvest, from the Yangtze River all the way south to Luzhou City, and then to Shaoxi Mansion, just Gao County, Jing County two large counties have captured tens of thousands of taels of gold and silver, more than 100,000 stone grain, and more than 10,000 men and women.

The day before yesterday, Jiang'an County went straight to Nazhou, where although the people had almost fled, there was a lot of grain, rice and property, and it was still unsatisfactory. Today, I want to attack Shaoxi Mansion with lightning speed, grab the first credit, and take this rich place known as the treasury of southern Sichuan within half a day, and I may have a greater harvest than Gao County and Jue County.

Seeing the houses in the south of Shaoxi Mansion from a distance, it is estimated that it is only about three miles away.

Still acting according to the old rules, Hua Hua'er yelled and ordered: "Divide four hundred cavalry into two ways to block the town in front of you to the back road, four hundred cavalry follow me into the town, and the rest of the 1,000 cavalry will come to search for property." Take the first step in the back road, don't let the fat sheep get lost. ”

Hua Hua'er took the cavalry to move forward quickly, and after about two quarters of an hour, he himself also went to a big town in the south of Shaoxi Mansion City, about half a mile in front of Niufo Town, to see that the dust raised by the cavalry galloping had bypassed the house in front, and the two dust heads had merged together, knowing that the big thing had been decided, and the flies in the town did not want to fly away at this time.

The town seemed to be very calm, silent, and from a distance it seemed that there were a few vague figures moving, and there seemed to be three or two cows grazing leisurely in the fields outside the town.

"The people of this town really don't know whether they are alive or dead, and we have come here so much that no one has fled in panic, waiting for us to collect money, food, goods, and a large number of children. Ha ha! Hua Hua'er thought of the happy place, and tried to start with both feet, but the pain in his thigh made him "hiss" and took a breath of cold air, and scolded: "Damn injury!" ”

In the face of the attack of the thieves, Li Xiang, who was disguised by cutting down branches and inserting them in front of the bunker, stood in the bunker dug up by the guards. His hand holding the telescope couldn't help but tremble slightly, seeing the enemy's cavalry face to face for the first time, and seeing the speed of the cavalry rushing past the side of the town just now, his heart was indeed very nervous.

He couldn't help but complain secretly: "Oh my God, I haven't fought, isn't this killing me." ”

Then he comforted himself and said to Zhao Er, who was lying beside him: "Don't be afraid, isn't it just more than a thousand cavalry, a few cannons can send them away, even if a small number of cavalry rush to the front, there are still hundreds of steel crossbows of the guards, no matter how bad they are, there are thirty guards around them and the sixty long and short firearms they brought can resist for a while, of course, if these are not good, you can immediately use a super 3D printer to print some machine guns to save your life, what are you afraid of?" Of course, Li Xiang was praying that it was better not to go to that point.

Zhao Er pouted dissatisfiedly and said: "My lord, have you forgotten that our brothers are all in the rivers and lakes, I am not afraid, but why are your own hands shaking so much, is your 'clairvoyance' too heavy, why don't you just change it to me." ”

Zhao Er took out his own five-inch-long "clairvoyance" and increased it in front of Li Xiang, and with his other hand, he was about to take Li Xiang's telescope.

Li Xiang withdrew his hand to avoid Zhao Er, and said in a loud voice: "It's not heavy, it's not heavy, you don't need to change it, you're too small, I'm not used to it." ”

After such a break, Li Xiang's nervous mood calmed down a lot, and his hands no longer trembled.

Li Xiang's sentry guard team was the most outstanding soldier in training in the escort team, not only was they physically strong and knew some of the basic martial arts taught by Zhao Er, but they were all equipped with newly made repeating crossbows. And, according to Zhao San, there was absolutely nothing wrong with their loyalty.

Thinking of Zhao San, Zhao San quietly came to Li Xiang's side with the "clairvoyance" that never left day and night after getting his hands, and asked in a low voice: "My lord, looking at the formation of the Mongolian cavalry, they want to rush into the town with cavalry first, control the overall situation, and then slowly search out all the belongings. How are you going to deal with them? ”

Li Xiang suppressed the uneasiness in his heart, and tried to say the plan he had already thought of in his heart in a steady voice: "Strive to annihilate them completely." It has been arranged, I ordered the artillery team to let them into the firing range of the tiger squat cannon, first use artillery fire to knock out the cavalry, disrupt their formation, and then use the tiger squat cannon to intercept the scattered cavalry, and then concentrate firepower to destroy them, of course, those Mongolian war horses, it is best not to kill them if they can stay, these are all treasures. ”

Zhao Erdao: "Okay, you see, the horses of the Mongolian cavalry horses are quite good, taller than the horses we have seen in the south, and even better than the horses of the cavalry of the army. Once such horses have been allowed to run, they will be extremely fast, and this distance of 100 zhang will probably be reached in a few moments in a sprint. We must pay attention to the fact that at the very moment before they are ready to attack, and the horses have not yet started, they must be ordered to be taken by surprise by artillery, so that the Mongol cavalry will not run fast and rush forward.
