Chapter 171: Regret (5)

Cai Siwei's hands were full of sweat droplets. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info

This is a face-to-face fight with the Mongolian Tartars, and it is also the first time that Cai Siwei has faced the Mongolian Tartars head-on.

It's funny to say, but also chilling, in Cai Siwei's memory, the imperial army has never had an active battle with the Mongolian army face to face, either passively defending in the city, or being forced to resist the attacking Mongolian army.

The situation of this operation was completely different, the Hezhou Imperial Army took the initiative to go deep into the Chengdu Fulu controlled by the Mongolian army to fight, resist the enemy outside the country, and it was the Mongolian army that took the initiative to attack the attacker.

The tasks and objectives of the operation were very clear, and the front army of the Mongolian army was completely annihilated.

There are 5,000 Mongolian cavalry, and they are the elite of the Mongolian army, and they can't let a single person escape.

Such a grand spirit, such a strong determination, and such a strong self-confidence are also Cai Siwei's first experience.

Shouldering such an important responsibility, Cai Siwei is extremely excited, not only him, but also the 10,000 soldiers under his command, who are also in a stirring mood, there are apprehensions, expectations, and the determination to fight to the death.

More than half a year has passed, Cai Siwei has to be convinced, Wu Shaogang asked to implement the training method, for changing the image of the army, to inspire the morale of the sergeants is very crucial, now the Hezhou Imperial Army, and a year ago has a world of difference, many sergeants are no longer afraid of fighting, and even compete for the opportunity to fight.

The armies in front of the Hezhou Imperial Palace have undergone radical changes, but Wu Shaogang still has a sentence that only the army that has experienced the forged by blood and fire is the real army of kings.

This time, the opportunity to mint came.

"Report, the former army of the Mongolian army has begun to enter the eagle's beak, and it is expected that in half an hour, all of them can enter the eagle's beak."

"Okay, continue to investigate, report at any time if there is a situation, and order Du Xiaoqi on the left and Qin Han on the right flank to prepare for battle."

After the herald left, Cai Siwei looked at the yellow sand in the sky and slowly raised the spear in his hand.

The archers in front of a thousand, lined up in three rows, had already drawn their bows and arrows, waiting for the order to shoot, and behind the thousand archers, there were five thousand cavalrymen, who had long been lined up in battle formation.

Cai Siwei's eyes have narrowed, they are at the exit of the eagle's beak, which is also the widest place, and the Mongolian sergeants must not be allowed to escape from the exit, and they must besiege the five thousand former sergeants of the Mongolian army in the eagle's beak.

The eagle's beak is the cemetery of the 5,000-year-old Mongolian army.

The faint sound of horses' hooves came, and Cai Siwei slowly raised the spear in his hand.

Entering the eagle's beak, the sergeant slowed down.

It's not the first time that You Qianhu has passed through the Eagle's Beak, and he is also familiar with the terrain here, but after passing the Eagle's Beak, he will go about five miles ahead, which is the area controlled by Zhongjiang County, so he still needs to be careful.

As for the eagle's beak, it didn't attract You Qianhu's attention, he mainly thought about how the front army should march after leaving the eagle's beak, whether to send a team of the most elite scouts to reconnoiter in front.

The eagle's beak is a place controlled by Deyang Mansion City, and in You Qianhu's opinion, it is absolutely safe.

When the front army entered the eagle's beak, You Qianhu slowed down slightly, and when he reached the rear of the team, Deputy Qianhu, who led the way in front, also slowed down.

Everything was normal around and nothing out of the ordinary.

Maybe it's habit, maybe it's the sixth sense, maybe it's the instinct generated by long-term fighting, I don't know why, You Qianhu always looks at both sides of the official road, even he himself feels strange, the eagle's beak is not a good ambush location, and the Song army can't appear here, after all, it is a place controlled by the Mongolian army, and the Song army doesn't have that much courage.

Trying to overcome the strange feeling in his heart, You Qianhu looked at the sergeants who had all entered the eagle's beak, and hit the horses and headed forward, the official road at the entrance was very narrow, and there was a small arc, and the sergeants in front were very conscious of getting out of the way.

The total length of the eagle's beak is about four miles, according to the speed of the march of the front army, it should be that the sergeant in front has left the eagle's beak, and the sergeant in the back has not yet entered, but because of the slowing down of the deputy Qianhu who led the team in front, all the sergeants have entered the eagle's beak, but the sergeant in front is about to arrive at the exit.

Deputy Qianhu was at the front of the line, waiting for You Qianhu.

I don't know why.,Vice Chino's feeling is not very good.。

In fact, along the way, Deputy Qianhu feels bad, whether it is in terms of qualifications or the number of battles, he is stronger than You Qianhu, but unfortunately You Qianhu has been favored by the marshal, but he is standing still, seeing You Qianhu is in high spirits, Deputy Qianhu's heart is very uncomfortable.

Deputy Qianhu is cautious in battle, accustomed to making all arrangements and deployments, this is not a disadvantage, on the contrary, it should be said to be an advantage, but unfortunately the marshal Liu Heima does not like this style of combat, plus over the years, their opponents Jin Bing and Song Bing are really weak, so Deputy Qianhu has no place to play.

This time, the marshal Liu Heima decided to attack Tongchuan Mansion, and Deputy Qianhu also had some opinions in his heart, he thought that the marshal was too risky, you must know that every battle needs to be approved by the Mongolian Khan Kublai Khan, unless it is a special circumstance, the marshal ventured into Tongchuan Mansion to fight, and the practice is debatable.

Along the way, Deputy Qianhu kept reminding You Qianhu that he still needed to be careful, and he did it for a reason, because when the former army set off, the marshal Liu Heima specially found him to ask him to prevent You Qianhu from being hot-headed.

Deputy Qianhu also knew that You Qianhu was very impatient with his reminder, and even showed it on the surface.

In such a situation, Deputy Qianhu not only has a very bad opinion of You Qianhu, but also has some opinions on the marshal Liu Heima, since he asked him to remind You Qianhu to be careful when marching and fighting, then he must also make a special entrustment to You Qianhu, judging from the current situation, the marshal obviously did not tell You Qianhu.

The official level crushes people to death, and this is especially true in the Mongolian army, the orders of the superiors and the subordinates must obey unconditionally, otherwise You Qianhu, who holds the token in his hand, can kill him at a very moment.

Fortunately, there was no trouble along the way, and the shadow of the Song army was not seen, which made Deputy Qianhu feel a little relieved, anyway, when he took Zhongjiang County, he would definitely put forward a suggestion and insist, that is, the front army must follow the order of the marshal, wait for the Chinese army in Zhongjiang County, and must not attack Tongchuan Mansion without authorization.

When he entered the eagle's beak, Deputy Qianhu and You Qianhu had the same feeling, he always felt that something was wrong, but he couldn't say it, after all, he didn't see anything along the way, so suspicious, wouldn't he suffer You Qianhu's direct blame, but Deputy Qianhu still had his own way, he slowed down the pace of the march, and You Qianhu at the back of the team must have caught up.

Cai Siwei's face changed slightly, he didn't expect the Mongolian army that entered the eagle's beak to slow down the pace of the march.

The original plan was that the 6,000 soldiers led by Cai Siwei would fight head-on, and Du Xiaoqi and Qin Han would attack from the left and right flanks to cut the front army of the Mongolian army into at least three pieces, so that the Mongolian army could not form too much combat effectiveness.

In the Eagle's Beak Canyon, 15,000 people are difficult to spread completely, and they are all cavalry, which is likely to lead to a situation where the fight becomes a pot of porridge.

This is something that Cai Siwei, who has an absolute advantage in troops, does not want to see.

Unfortunately, the situation has changed, and he must also make adjustments and changes.

The Mongol army was already less than a mile away from the main army, and when they turned the small bend in front of them, they could see each other.

"Archer, prepare."

"Herald, quickly notify Deputy Zhang who is stationed at the entrance, the situation has changed, his pressure will definitely increase, the Mongolian army behind is likely to withdraw in the direction of the entrance, and the sergeants stationed at Gukou must hold on to the death, and they can't let go of any Mongolian army."

"Herald, report the situation here to your lordship."

Cai Siwei was still holding a spear in his hand, he looked at the archers in front of him, turned his head to look at the cavalry behind him, and a glimmer of light burst out of his eyes.

"Herald, tell everyone that after the battle begins, they are not allowed to retreat, only to fight forward, and there are Mongolian soldiers who retreat without permission and kill without mercy, according to the orders of the adults, the Mongolian soldiers who kneel and surrender can be let go for the time being, but if they do not obey the command, they will be killed."

Cai Siwei didn't want to have any prisoners at all, the battlefield was fighting, the prisoners were the most obstructive, he had no way to send special troops to watch the prisoners, and who knew if the prisoners really wanted to surrender, if they surrendered, they fled while they were unprepared, and went to inform the Chinese army of the Mongolian army, wouldn't it be a big deal.

In this regard, Cai Siwei intends to disobey Wu Shaogang's order, and he can't be soft-hearted on the battlefield, even if this may cause desperate resistance from the Mongolian army, he doesn't care.

Yellow sand had already appeared not far ahead, and it was a breeze blowing.

There is no need to scout for the report, Cai Siwei also knows that the Mongolian army is about to appear in front of him.

Everyone's attention was highly concentrated, and many people had large drops of sweat on their foreheads, but no one wiped those droplets, and a pair of eyes were staring at the front, staring at the yellow sand that had appeared.

The sound of horses' hooves in front of them has become very clear, and the sound of horses' hooves is a little messy, but it beats everyone's hearts.

A murderous aura began to appear.

Finally, the Mongolian sergeant in a gray-white military uniform appeared in front of him.

A strange smile flashed on Cai Siwei's face, and he raised the spear in his hand.

"Archers in the first row, fire...

In an instant, hundreds of bows and arrows roared in the direction of the Mongolian army.

A tragic battle finally unfolded in the eagle's beak.

In the military tent, Wu Shaogang closed his eyes slightly, as if the old monk was settled, but his fists were pinched very tightly, and his knuckles were white. (To be continued.) )
