Chapter 246: Momentum (2)

Looking at the gradually defeated sergeant, Liu Yuanzhen was completely stunned. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info

When the army arrived in Xishui, Liu Yuanzhen followed the advice of his advisers and rested for a day, on the one hand, waiting for the scattered troops to assemble, and on the other hand, observing the actions of the Song army behind him, but it was also a day of rest, and the army continued to move, at this time, the number of the army under Liu Yuanzhen's command had increased to 34,000 people.

During the attack on the city of Bazhou, the army suffered some casualties, and almost all the sergeants in this battle were collected.

Liu Yuanzhen once again had confidence, he believed that with the more than 30,000 troops under his command, he would definitely be able to surround Chengdu Fucheng, which made the Song army tremble and fear, because the combat deployment arrangements were not in place, and the responsibility for the loss of Chengdu Fucheng should be smaller.

The army entered the area under the jurisdiction of Longqing Mansion and did not slow down, Liu Yuanzhen still sent sergeants to reconnoiter along the road, and the Song army following behind did not move, which also made the scouting sergeants become absent-minded.

In fact, Liu Yuanzhen's inner worries still exist, after all, Longqing Mansion is close to Tongchuan Mansion, you must know that Tongchuan Mansion is the territory controlled by the imperial army of Hezhou in the Great Song Dynasty, and I don't know if Longqing Mansion was attacked by the Song army.

When the army passed through Pucheng County, it did not detect any movement.

On the first day of August, more than 30,000 troops entered Zitong County.

After Zitong County, it was about to enter Mianzhou, and just when Liu Yuanzhen decided to strengthen his vigilance, the battle began.

The Song army actually set up an ambush in Zitong County.

Liu Yuanzhen was a little caught off guard, and never imagined that the power of the Song army had invaded Zitong County, which was under the jurisdiction of Longqing Mansion, so that Mianzhou and Hanzhou and other places were all occupied by the Song army.

When the battle had just begun, Liu Yuanzhen's advisers once again advised not to indulge in the battle, and quickly led the army to evacuate in the direction of Lizhou in the north.

Liu Yuanzhen categorically denied this proposal, the Song army in ambush in Zitong County, the attack was not very violent, it seems that the number of troops is not very large, think about it, Chengdu Fucheng fell less than half a month, at this moment the main force of the Song army, I am afraid that it is still hanging around the city, and Liu Yuanzhen still has 20,000 Song troops behind him, if he evacuates at this time, he will definitely let the Song army on both roads meet, and pursue behind the army.

Liu Yuanzhen had already discharged any other distractions, and after the battle began, he only cared about the situation of the battle.

Liu Yuanzhen sent three vanguard troops in a row, trying to break through the defense line of the Song army, but without success, until it was dark, the scouts reported that the Song army was following behind, and it was less than ten miles away from here, Liu Yuanzhen noticed something unusual.

It's a pity that Liu Yuanzhen has no chance, it is unrealistic for the army to evacuate at night, and it is impossible to do it, if it is forcibly evacuated, once the team disperses, it will fall into a situation of self-chaos without a fight.

Liu Yuanzhen made a heart and gave a death order, when he fought in Japan, he must attack with all his strength and defeat the Song army in the shortest possible time, so that the army could be calmly evacuated.

Since the power of the Song army has expanded to Zitong County, which is under the jurisdiction of Longqing Mansion, then with the ability of Liu Yuanzhen and his soldiers, it is very good to be able to break through Mianzhou and Hanzhou, it will pay a lot of casualties, and it is impossible to win the battle with the defeated army to besiege Chengdu Fucheng.

Therefore, Liu Yuanzhen's idea was to order the army to attack hard after dawn, and once the Song army's defense line was broken through and the Song army was defeated, he immediately withdrew in the direction of Lizhou, and finally went to Xingyuan Mansion to assemble and wait for the edict of the Great Khan Kublai Khan.

Liu Yuanzhen is still sober, and he has experienced a lot of battles, and he can control his emotions at critical moments.

As soon as he arrived, Liu Yuanzhen ordered the sergeants to launch a large-scale attack.

This time, Liu Yuanzhen dispatched most of the cavalry, hoping to rely on the sharpness of the cavalry to break through the defense line of the Song army in the fastest time, and then completely defeat the Song army.

But what Liu Yuanzhen never expected was that the Song army also became sharp, and the number of people participating in the battle increased significantly, and the battle soon fell into a stalemate.

By the time Liu Yuanzhen understood and thought about ordering the army to evacuate, he had no chance.

The Song army, which was following behind, finally participated in the battle.

The 5,000 soldiers sent by Liu Yuanzhen were simply unable to resist the attack of the 20,000 Song army, and the defense line was quickly broken through, and nearly 20,000 Song troops joined the battle group.

What made Liu Yuanzhen even more frightened was that the frontal Song army's offensive suddenly became fierce, and the sergeants under his command were suddenly a little difficult to resist, or they had to do their best to maintain it.

Tens of thousands of people fought in the open flats, surrounded by blood.

The strategists around Liu Yuanzhen had long since dared to speak, and the heralds would come to report almost every once in a while, and there were no more sergeants around Liu Yuanzhen who could be dispatched.

The battle that began at Mao Shi lasted until noon, and Liu Yuanzhen heard the dense drums again.

This is the drumming of the Song army, the dense drumming that has never been seen before.

Accompanied by the sound of drums, Liu Yuanzhen heard the sound of a large trembling, which was a signal for a large-scale cavalry sortie.

In an instant, Liu Yuanzhen's face turned pale, and he began to believe that he had completely entered a trap, in fact, there were many Song troops on the opposite side, and their combat effectiveness was by no means ordinary, but they were not sure that they would eat the army under his command at one time, so they put out a maze array, and did not attack with all their strength, and when the other Song army participated in the battle, the Song army on the opposite side finally showed its fangs and began a large-scale attack.

The herald was out of breath to report, the news made Liu Yuanzhen desperate, the defense line of the army under his command was completely defeated, the Song army had infiltrated the army to fight, and tens of thousands of troops had been divided and surrounded by the Song army, there were urgent voices everywhere, attacks everywhere, according to the current fighting situation, Liu Yuanzhen could not command the army to evacuate safely.

The pro-soldiers and strategists around him finally suggested that Liu Yuanzhen lead some of the sergeants to evacuate first, as for the rest of the sergeants, it depends on what fate is, it is a good thing to be able to evacuate, and if you can't evacuate, you can only blame your own fate.

Liu Yuanzhen instinctively insisted, he was unwilling to abandon the army, this was the capital of his life, lost the army, lost the Chengdu Road, and what was waiting for Liu Yuanzhen was a dead end.

For a while, Liu Yuanzhen, who was completely in despair, led his own soldiers around him, rushed out of the Chinese military tent, and came to the battlefield to fight.

The sound of shouting and killing, the sound of jingo colliding, the neighing of horses, the screams and the sound of drums were mixed together, and it was difficult to hear what you were saying, even if you shouted loudly.

Liu Yuanzhen originally rushed up to fight with the belief that he would die, but when he saw everything on the battlefield, he was stunned.

The sergeants under his command were already in a situation of rout, there were scattered and fleeing sergeants everywhere, and even some sergeants had surrendered on their knees, and the cavalry that he was proud of was firmly surrounded by the cavalry of the Song army, and could not evacuate at all, and many cavalry sergeants fell in the battle, leaving the horses that kept neighing in place.

What the hell is going on, how can an army of more than 30,000 people be defeated so badly, but in half a day, there is no team that can resist and fight desperately.

Liu Yuanzhen, who was in a daze, was finally taken away from the battlefield by his own soldiers and evacuated in the direction of Pucheng County.

。。。

It was impossible for Liu Yuanzhen to escape, because someone had already been eyeing him.

Before the ambush began, Wu Shaogang gave Du Xiaoqi a special order, and the task of the scout battalion in this operation was to capture or kill Liu Yuanzhen and the strategists under Liu Yuanzhen, and these people must not be allowed to escape.

On the one hand, Liu Yuanzhen is the boss, once the boss is captured or killed, it indicates a complete victory in the battle, and on the other hand, it is also for Luo Sulin to continue to gain a foothold in the capital of Yanjing Road, after all, the strategists around Liu Yuanzhen know everything.

The 1,000 scouts led by Du Xiaoqi did not participate in the fight at all, and they have always paid close attention to the Chinese military tent of the Mongolian army and what is happening in the Chinese military tent.

Of course, it is impossible for a thousand scouts to take any decapitation action, after all, when the battle just began, there were a large number of Mongolian sergeants guarding the Chinese military tent, at that time Du Xiaoqi launched an attack, that is, looking for death, but with the continuation of the battle, especially after Cai Siwei ordered the army to launch a general attack, the situation was completely different, the Mongolian army that was attacked before and after, gradually lost the ability to resist, and began to rout.

At this time, Liu Yuanzhen actually wanted to fight in person.

Du Xiaoqi, who was overjoyed, was ready to order his scouts to attack, join the battle group, and specifically kill Liu Yuanzhen, but what annoyed Du Xiaoqi was that Liu Yuanzhen did not really participate in the fight, just looked at it, and was escorted by the soldiers around him, evacuated the battlefield, and rushed directly to the rear.

Du Xiaoqi, who is already on fire, how could he let Liu Yuanzhen go.

Many scouts followed him towards Liu Yuanzhen.

The first to suffer was the strategists around Liu Yuanzhen, these strategists were literati, they were powerless, and the speed of evacuation could not be very fast, they were quickly killed, even if they dismounted their heads, it would be useless, because there was an order from above, none of the strategists around Liu Yuanzhen should be let go, and they should not live.

Then there are the guards around Liu Yuanzhen, the combat effectiveness of these guards is good, but it is a pity that they met the soldiers of the scout battalion of the Hezhou Imperial Army, the elite of the elite.

The guards also fell one by one, and there were fewer and fewer guards around Liu Yuanzhen.

Finally, Liu Yuanzhen stopped, turned the horse's head around, raised the spear in his hand, and rushed towards Du Xiaoqi.

Du Xiaoqi didn't answer, but pulled out his bow and arrows one after another, and shot three arrows in a row.

The first bow and arrow hit Liu Yuanzhen's right arm, the second shot Liu Yuanzhen in the right chest, and the third shot directly into Liu Yuanzhen's left eye.

Before he could rush to Du Xiaoqi, Liu Yuanzhen fell, fell off his horse, and remained motionless on the ground.
