Although at present, his troops can still take the initiative, and the cavalry of the barbarian cavalry is not completely harmless to the chariot formation, but if he wants to give Zheng Yunming who is cowering in the chariot formation any fatal blow, there is no way to start at all.

More than 1,000 Mongolian cavalry ventured to gather and launch a surprise attack on the Song army, crushing a small formation of the Song army and killing and wounding hundreds of Song infantry, but it was no longer beneficial to the overall situation. Wan Wensheng's troops killed and captured thousands of Mongol artillery soldiers and craftsmen, swept away the obstacles and fortifications south of the city, and burned a large number of trebuchets. The retreat was being organized in an orderly manner, and the Song army in the east and north of the city had also completed their respective tasks, gradually retreating in the direction of the city gate. Zheng Yunming listened to the report of the lookout and thought about the shape of the battlefield. When should you arrange a retreat? You must wait until the rest of the Song army advances into the city, and then slowly retreat as the queen of the palace. The march of the chariot formation is an extremely tedious and trivial matter, and it is also extremely fragile when the chariot array is unlocked and retreated, and it cannot withstand the repeated attacks of the cavalry, so it is still necessary to send a large infantry formation to cover all around. He looked at the West Gate Tower behind him, and the daylight flag representing the good news had been hung, which meant that Zhao Kui had allowed him to retreat.

Zheng Yunming thought for a while, stretched out his hand to pick up a command flag from the command flag stand, and prepared to issue an order, so that the troops in the Zhenwu and Tulong armies who had not yet participated in the battle would go forward to form a formation in front of the car formation to provide cover for the retreat of the car formation.

At this time, I suddenly heard the stunned shouts of the lookout: "Southwest, there is a Mongolian army coming to help!" ”

Although the opportunity had been completely missed, another Mongol general, Kuduhu, who was in charge of attacking the outer fortresses of Xiangyang, finally arrived to join the main force. In the distance, the Mongolian flag sequence is embroidered with a white wolf's head, and the black flag is waving in the wind. Kuduhu brought back not only another elite cavalry of the Mongolian Wanhu, but also the combat power that was most needed to bind Chongshan. In order to attack the castle on the periphery of Xiangyang, Qu specially ordered Shi Tianze, Yan Shi and Liu Wei to each leave a thousand households of troops for the unified command of Kuduhu, to make it clear, it is the established policy of the Mongol army to let the Han and Jurchens act as cannon fodder during the siege of the city, knowing this, but for their own position in front of the Mongol Great Khan, the Han army Wanhu must still order his subordinates to risk their lives and attack the city with all their might. In addition to leaving 1,000 households near Fancheng to clear the fortress near Fancheng and strengthen the barrier fortifications, there are also 2,000 households under Kuduhu's men to attack a series of fortresses south of Xiangyang. Naturally, they can also be used for the most urgent task at the moment, to capture the vehicle formation deployed by Zheng Yunming in front.

Kuduhu was quite dissatisfied at the moment, and he returned from Luhuling with the team. He had just completed the siege of Lutuoling, erected a fence around the castle, and managed to fill in a few more trenches, when the Han army had already rushed up to build a human ladder and began to ascend the city, and the order to withdraw his troops to the vicinity of Xiangyang for reinforcements arrived at this time. The whole siege plan is just?? It can be said that it was a failure, and the anger of the Kudu Tiger is of course justified, and the most important thing in attacking the city is to make a big move. If the plan falls through halfway, the morale of the defenders will rise and the morale of the own army will fall.

But if he thinks that this time the marshal of the glue does not give an order to let him collect his troops, he will be wrong to capture the Camel Ridge, the Song army in the Camel Ridge is extremely strong. The attacking Han army had already lost 100 men before it approached the city wall, and if the battle continued, it was difficult to know who would win and who would lose. But glue Shigeyama so ordered. Kuduhu can just put the blame on him.

"The order of the king of Quchu is to clear these small fortresses around Xiangyang City first. The Sinan people in the city only need to contain our army. He said indignantly: "Now the southern fortress has been abandoned halfway, and it is going to attack their defensive line of vehicles head-on. Isn't it that the tiger doesn't go after the yellow sheep, but wants to hit the rock? ”

Glue Chongshan pointed at the middle of the Song army's six chariot formations with a horsewhip and asked, "Do you know who is commanding this chariot formation?" The Chinese text written on the flag is Zheng Zheng, the deputy capital of Jing and Hubei, that is, Zheng Yunming, who is remembered by the king. ”

When Hu Duhu heard this, he became interested, and said hurriedly: "Is it really Zheng Yunming who came out in person?" ”

Glue Shigeyama leaned his horsewhip against the saddle bridge, half-closed his eyes and said, "What is a trebuchet, and what is an artillery army?" If you get Zheng Yunming, you can catch a thousand generals of the Southern Dynasty, but I don't know if Hudu Huwanhu has the courage to take this wealth. ”

Kuduhu is very greedy and anxious, how can he not be enthusiastic about this work of the Southern Expedition? He shouted loudly: "Order the march of thousands of households to slaughter the square, gather the soldiers, and prepare to attack the car formation of the Sinan Si people!" The herald bowed down to give orders, and Pegasus went to deliver the order. After a while, about 2,000 Han soldiers began to assemble in front of the Mongol army. These brave and capable soldiers have fought in the north and the Jin State for many years, and they have also smashed the Jin State's so-called powerful infantry array face to face many times. At this time, in the face of the Song people's chain of locked side car formations, the fighting spirit was particularly high.

"It's really the third watch that got up at night and overturned the stove!" Zheng Yunming looked at the enemy infantry gathered in the distance and couldn't help but curse. He immediately looked back at the 6th master, but fortunately he didn't understand this sentence very well. Zheng Yunming shouted: "Zhu Sheng! Beckon your firearms hand into the van! The others went their separate ways to find fortifications to hide, and the cavalrymen took care of their horses! ”

"The Tartars are about to be killed!"

The infantry stepped forward one after another, either relying on various sundries as fortifications, or entering the area protected by the side vans. The archers of the enemy army raised their bows and began to shoot arrows into the formation, and the crossbowmen of the back army and the general archery army also returned fire with curved shots. In addition, in terms of the Middle Earth, the bow and arrow of the Song Dynasty, which was in a corner of peace, was more refined than the bow and crossbow in the north. Confirmed by Han Shizhong, Yue Fei and others in Chapter 2o2. Anyone who manufactures a substandard weapon will inevitably be severely punished by the deputy commander of the Metropolitan Administration. Bai Yijie also imitated the step-by-step process of weaving craftsmen and porcelain craftsmen. The manufacture of weapons is refined into more than ten or even dozens of steps, and each step is fixed by a part of the craftsman, so that the craftsman can specialize in one of the steps, and does not have to learn everything to make weapons. If the skills in their minds are turned into dozens of simple and easy-to-learn procedures, then the threshold for craftsmen to get started will be greatly lowered, and the government's dependence on them will be reduced. But Bai Yijie has a strict order, and he personally expressed his feelings, saying that the future war is dangerous, and whether the country can keep it is in two words, at this time, it is very unwise to affect the process of weapon production for a little selfishness of his own, and said that in the future, he will definitely fight with the Hu people in the north for many years, and the need for weapons is absolutely indispensable, and reducing dependence on Yunyun is simply a shadowless thing, on the contrary, the country will pay more and more attention to the status of craftsmen in the future.

After arduous and meticulous efforts, Xiangyang's military production was finally able to leap to a higher level, and it was able to steadily surpass the level of the craftsmen in the north and make a slight difference. This is a very unusual achievement, you must know that the war in the north has been raging for many years, and the craftsmen under the supervision of the powerful people in various places are very strict, if the production of weapons is slightly poor, it is very likely to pay the price of life. Under such strict supervision, the standard of bows and arrows they produced was still under the refurbished Xiangyang craftsmen. This was because the Mongol army had no spare time to stabilize the quality of weapons production after years of fierce battles, and in order to make up for the huge losses caused by years of war, it had no choice but to adopt the principle of exchanging quality for quantity, and endure the decline in the quality of weapons to expand the quantity.

However, there is another advantage in the Mongolian army, that is, the soldiers of the Mobei headquarters and some of the surrounding Tibetan troops will make their own bows and arrows, repair armor, which is a necessary skill on the grassland, and they have been learning since childhood. And because they can make weapons themselves, they can make them on the spot after the war, and they don't have to worry about the number of weapons being insufficient. The Han generals also encouraged their subordinates to learn from the soldiers of the main family, but it was clear that the Han soldiers, like the soldiers of the Southern Dynasty, were peasants. The soldiers of the Southern Dynasty will not do anything, they will not do anything. If there is a slight advantage, it is because the people of the Northland have always had martial customs, and they have experienced many years of war, which makes them experienced soldiers. In the face of the pampered and weak soldiers of the Southern Dynasty, they seemed brave and good at fighting.

But they were completely inferior when faced with the elite infantry of Jinghu peasants and miners trained by Zheng Yunming himself. The archers of the Tulong Army's Zhongjun, Qianjun and Beiwei armies were skilled in archery, and they inflicted casualties one after another in the Mongol Han infantry advancing with shields.
