Chapter 159: The Bloody Battle of Xing'an Town (Part II)
The way the Huangzhou Red Turban Army exchanged their lives for their lives, which aroused the bloody nature of the Yingzhou and Xiangyang Red Turban Army on both wings. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info
Looking at all this in front of him, Li Xingze's eyes gradually moistened, and he never thought that the Huangzhou Red Turban Army would dare to fight so much.
Even if this kind of tragic battle did not last long, the losses on both sides were quite large, the cavalry of the Yuan army suffered a lot of losses, and the 20,000 Huangzhou Red Turban Army, almost everyone was injured, and only a few thousand people were able to walk the road.
Seeing that the Chinese army of the Red Turban Army had no chance of turning the tables, Don't Timur urged: "Speed up the pace and cover up the whole army!" ”
"Doodoo"
When the cavalry of the Yuan army heard the order, they all turned their horses off and retreated, and the next thing was the battlefield belonging to the infantry.
At this moment, the infantry phalanx of the Yuan army had slowly walked over, and Li Xingze knew that he still had to fight, otherwise Timur would not be fooled.
Immediately shouted: "Beat the drums, hit together!" ”
......
"Fourth uncle, should we listen to Ni Wenjun?" The Fang family's fleet was behind the Huangzhou fleet, slowly sailing on the water, Fang Guan asked with a frown.
Fang Guoying didn't answer directly, and suddenly asked, "Le'er, what did Li Junshi order?" ”
"It's weird!"
Fang Le was puzzled and said, "Let's prepare more rafts after we get to Hanchuan!" ”
"Raft?" Fang Guoying reacted instantly and muttered, "Do you want to attack with fire?" ”
Fang Guoying remembered Ni Wenjun's order before, which was to let them stand still with the Huangzhou Red Turban Army and block the enemy in Hanchuan, but they did not take the initiative to attack, which was completely different from Li Xingze's order.
"This..."
Fang Guoying is also in a dilemma now, whose order is it based on, and what should the Fang family do?
"I'll ask General Ni first and see what's going on!" Fang Guoying, who had made up her mind, simply didn't think about it anymore, and directly beckoned a small boat and went to the boat.
Ni Wenjun also had a headache at the moment, Don't Timur let him secretly release the water, and Miss Ma asked him to fully cooperate with Li Xingze.
Ni Wenjun was in a dilemma, and suddenly got a report, Fang Guoying came, and hurried out of the cabin to greet him.
"The general is worried about the Yuan army?" Fang Guoying came on the boat, and met Ni Wenjun, who was frowning, and asked immediately.
It's a worry, but this worry is not the other's sorrow.
Ni Wenjun smiled bitterly: "Let Fourth Master Fang laugh!" ”
The number of the two parties is the same, and the Fang family came with Li Xingze, Ni Wenjun knew that it might be the Fang family who got some news, so he cautiously asked, "Is there any good way for Fourth Master Fang?" ”
After Fang Guoying told Li Xingze what he told them, Ni Wenjun fell silent.
He and Li Xingze had also discussed how to meet the enemy in Hanchuan before, although a few thousand against 50,000, but the water war did not depend on the number of people. Ni Wenjun asked himself and was confident that he would defeat He Sinan's army.
The question is whether he is of use in the heart of Timur after the deliberate defeat.
Whether Huangzhou won or lost this battle, it is now all in the hands of Ni Wenjun.
Fang Guoying couldn't understand it now, after Ni Wenjun heard what he said, he stood up and walked around the small cabin, the sweat of the bean size slid straight down the sides of his cheeks and fell to the ground, obviously not hot in the cabin.
Isn't it just to discuss how to fight, is it so difficult to make a decision, Fang Guoying said secretly in her heart.
Regarding how to fight, Ni Wenjun and Li Xingze had already made a plan, a very simple move, but it was enough to destroy He Sinan's 50,000 sailors.
Ni Wenjun suddenly stomped his feet, looked at Fang Guoying and gritted his teeth and said, "I know what to do!" ”
......
In the government of Huangzhou City, almost all the people in charge will gather together, and the first seat is Xu Shouhui, who closes his eyes.
On the left is Zou Pusheng, who didn't say a word, constantly dusting his hands.
The entire hall was silently dropped, and almost everyone sat solemnly, not afraid of Xu Shouhui's temper, but worried about the war on the front line.
Xu Shouhui really didn't dare to open his eyes at the moment, he felt that his heartbeat had never been so violent, thumping, and almost jumping out of his chest.
It was so quiet that he couldn't help but quietly open his eyes and glanced at Zou Pusheng beside him.
His expression was extremely relaxed, but there was sweat on his cheeks.
Unexpectedly, Zou Laodao was also so nervous, Xu Shouhui wanted to laugh but couldn't, and then glanced at everyone in the hall, all sitting with their heads down, not knowing what to think there.
Inadvertently, Xu Shouhui saw Cui Yingying sitting near the door, and saw that she was also lowering her head and twisting the handkerchief in her hand, it stands to reason that she is not qualified to be here, but she is grateful for her family's funding for the Red Turban Army, and...
Xu Shouhui said secretly, after this fight, is it time to match the two of them.
It was already dusk, and the dim light of the setting sun was slanting in from outside the hall gate.
"Report!"
Suddenly, a shout came from a distance outside the door, and almost everyone looked up and stared at the door in unison.
A herald stumbled in, got down on one knee, and hurriedly shouted: "Report to the marshal, our army is defeated!" ”
"What?"
Although everyone had already prepared for the worst, there was still a glimmer of hope in their hearts, and after hearing the battle report, they still exclaimed in unison.
Before Xu Shouhui could ask, Zou Pusheng quickly stood up with a 'swish', and shouted urgently: "How did you lose, where is Li Junshi now?" ”
The herald hurriedly bowed his head and said: "Li Junshi and Bei Timur fought against each other in Xing'an Town, lost to the Yuan army, and have withdrawn to Hanchuan!" ”
How could this be, even Li Junshi was defeated, and then He Sinan's army was going to sweep through Huangzhou, and the hall was in chaos in an instant.
"Silence!"
Xu Shouhui was suddenly furious, and slapped the mahogany square table fiercely, and the teacups on the table couldn't stand the vibration, rolled to the ground, and shattered and scattered.
Xu Shouhui scolded: "Look at what you have become one by one, the Yuan army hasn't fought yet!" ”
Then, Xu Shouhui waved his hand impatiently and said, "Let's go and prepare to defend the city!" ”
Zou Pusheng stretched out his hand to stop and stopped: "Wait! ”
......
The Xiangyang and Yingzhou Red Turban Armies carried out the order well, and after the remaining sparse cavalry of the Yuan Army left, they joined forces together and shelved the Huangzhou Red Turban Army behind the formation.
The Huangzhou Red Turban Army was so tragic just now that it was almost disabled, and with such a few people, it was impossible to resist the Yuan army.
Meng Haima and the others did not dare to hesitate, and shouted loudly to their men and horses to resist the battle formation of the Yuan army.
Miss Ma looked back at Li Xingze, who was far behind the battle, and was very anxious, and couldn't help but secretly ask, what are you thinking, why haven't you withdrawn your troops.
At this moment, the generals of the Red Turban Army on the battlefield all looked at Li Xingze behind the formation more or less.
"Why haven't you withdrawn your troops?" Zhang Junbao was really anxious at this time, the 40,000 infantry battle formation of the Yuan army was getting closer and closer, and the formation of the Huangzhou Red Turban Army was crippled, and now it could only rely on the 20,000 people of friendly troops to resist.
Li Xingze stared at the phalanx of the Yuan army with concentration, ignoring the sweat that flowed from both sides of his cheeks, and muttered: "You can't withdraw, it's still a little close!" ”
It's still a little bit, it's all like this, if it is delayed any longer, everyone will not be able to withdraw.
Zhang Junbao dragged Li Xingze, who was still slightly stunned, and shouted loudly: "Senior brother, wake up!" ”
At this time, the Yuan army had already made contact with the Red Turban Army.
The Red Turban Army of Xiangyang and Yingzhou desperately resisted the slowly advancing Yuan army and fought each other.
It's just that any resistance has become very thin, and the Red Turban Army in the front row is like being slowly crushed by a giant tank, falling down one after another.
At this time, Li Xingze suddenly ignored his body shaken by Zhang Junbao, hurriedly set it aside, and shouted: "Order, retreat!" ”
"Knock Knock"
For a while, the drums beat loudly, and everyone knew that this was an order to retreat, but...
Nima, now that the fight is going on, can you get out?
Miss Ma suddenly became angry, and secretly scolded Li Xingze for not being too dull, if this situation is not fought for a while, where can he be withdrawn.
The Red Turban Army, which received the order, ran backwards one after another, and there was chaos at once, while the Yuan Army still advanced slowly, and many Red Turban Army soldiers fell to the ground.
"Kill!" At this time, Hua Shaofeng and Feng Qiang led the cavalry to catch up from the rear.
"Withdraw, withdraw!"
The generals of the various Red Turban Corps hurriedly shouted loudly, beckoning their subordinates to hurry back and run back, with cavalry covering at this time.
Hua Shaofeng shot arrows one after another, and several Yuan soldiers in the front row fell to the ground in response, and Feng Qiang and the cavalry crashed into the phalanx of the Yuan army.
hit the Yuan army by surprise.
Anyone who could move the Red Turban Army hurriedly ran backwards at this time, taking advantage of the moment when the cavalry crashed into the Yuan army, they instantly opened up a little distance.
"Old flower, withdraw!"
Feng Qiang slashed down the Yuan soldiers who were about to surround him with a backhand, and shouted loudly.
The cavalry of the two teams of the Red Turban Army quickly turned around, and they lost hundreds of horses under the collision just now, but now they have to rush before the Yuan army charges to cover the retreat of the Red Turban Army.
Don't Timur suddenly laughed, I really didn't expect that Li Xingze would make such a mistake, obviously he could retreat a moment ago, but he had to wait for contact before retreating, this time, not only could he not escape, but also involved the cavalry in exchanging his life for time.
It seems that Li Xingze was already distraught when he saw that the Red Turban Army had suffered such a big loss. Thinking of this, don't Timur waved his sword and shouted: "The whole army charges!" ”
"Toot..."
The rapid whistle sounded throughout the battlefield, and the Yuan army dispersed at this time and began to pursue the fleeing Red Turban Army not far ahead.
The remaining thousands of horsemen of the Yuan army also drove their horses to catch up.
"Old flower, what should I do?"
Following behind the majority, two groups of cavalry ran on both sides, covering the retreat of the Red Turban Army. Seeing that the cavalry of the Yuan army was chasing after him, Feng Qiang said hurriedly.
Hua Shaofeng looked back at the murderous cavalry of the Yuan army, and gritted his teeth at the moment: "Qiangzi, I'll lead someone to block it, you withdraw first!" ”
Knowing Hua Shaofeng's ability, Feng Qiang nodded silently, this retreat is still a long way away, and the two of them must give up one now.
At that moment, Feng Qiang's nose was sour, and he shouted loudly: "Old flower, take care!" He didn't look back, beckoned to the cavalry, and drove behind the soldiers of the Red Turban Army in front. (To be continued.) )
