Chapter 450: Clean
10th year of Xianchun, April 17. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info
The weather is very good, just after the hour, the sky is already bright, there is not a trace of clouds in the sky, the clear blue sky makes people feel comfortable, and a round of red sun rises from the sky.
The deputy marshal who commanded the 30,000 troops of the Chinese army was in a very comfortable mood, he finally figured it out, this time he followed the deputy marshal Ali Hague to Haizhou City, it is not a bad thing, if he can defend Haizhou City with all his strength and prevent the attack of the Song army, it is also a great merit, and he will also be rewarded by the emperor and the imperial court.
After a few days of marching, many sergeants have shown fatigue, but the deputy marshal will not care so much, after all, the deputy marshal Ali Hague has a strong requirement, and the Chinese army must arrive in Haizhou within 20 days.
The calm of the march all the way, has made the deputy marshal completely relaxed, from Lianshui County, he did not send scouts to investigate, remember to enter the Lianshui County under the jurisdiction of Haizhou, he met the deputy marshal Ali The Hague sent scouts, specifically to Xuancheng to the marshal Ashu to report the news, the scout said that the deputy marshal under the command of the 20,000 soldiers, all arrived in Haizhou City, the road was very calm, did not see the Song army.
This made the deputy marshal more reassured, and also thought that there was no need to send scouts, so as not to delay time, if the Chinese army could arrive in Haizhou Prefecture a day earlier, he would definitely be able to get the deputy marshal's reward.
When he set out from Lianshui County, the officers around him reminded him whether to send scouts to Haizhou Prefecture to report the situation of the Chinese army's march to the deputy marshal, but the deputy marshal refused.
The dust was flying in the distance, and the birds were constantly being alarmed and flying around.
Cai Siwei narrowed his eyes, there was no need to scout at this moment, he also knew that the Mongolian army was coming along the official road.
Scouts Pegasus reported that the Mongolian army was already entering the ambush circle.
The spear in Cai Siwei's hand was raised.
The herald beside him quickly raised the red flag in his hand and waved it desperately three times from side to side.
The rumbling sound of horses' hooves made the earth tremble.
。。。
The deputy marshal looked confused, he didn't know where the sound of horses' hooves came from, could it be that it was the army sent by the deputy marshal to respond, and it wasn't until the rain of arrows in the sky that he understood that the big thing was not good.
The marching sergeants, however, were the first to move, and they instinctively turned around and retreated in the direction they came.
After the deputy marshal understood, he immediately began to shout loudly and give orders, not allowing the sergeant to turn around and evacuate, in the face of the attack of the Song cavalry, if he turned around and fled, it would be a dead end, and there was no chance to escape at all.
Some of the guards around him helped to block the bows and arrows that came from them, and some of the horses conveyed the order of the deputy marshal to resist on the spot.
Officers at all levels also began to order sergeants to form a formation at this time to resist the attack of the Song army.
When the black hurricane appeared in front of him, the face of the deputy marshal was pale, he had also experienced hundreds of battles, the morale of the cavalry of the Song army was far beyond his expectations, and the cavalry of the Song army was met with the infantry under his command, and the outcome of the battle could be imagined.
Just as the deputy marshal ordered the sergeants to set up a battle formation, ready to start holding on to the defense and evacuating in an orderly manner, the left and right flanks of the team also heard the sound of rumbling horses' hooves, and a round of arrows flew from the sky again.
In front and on the left and right flanks, the cavalry of the Song army all appeared.
The deputy marshal sensed the great danger, and he ordered the guards around him to evacuate by all means and report the news to Ali Hague, the deputy marshal stationed in Haizhou Prefecture.
。。。
Xia Gui had closed his eyes in pain, and when he heard the sound of horses' hooves, he sensed that something was wrong, and a large number of cavalrymen wearing black robes appeared in front and on the left and right wings, Xia Gui knew that his end had come, and the black robe, which he used to be so familiar with, now seemed to be the black that ended his life.
Perhaps thinking of certain death, Xia Gui seemed calm, he kept dodging the bows and arrows that came from him, turning his head to look at the situation around him, many sergeants were shot by bows and arrows, screaming and falling, and more sergeants were busy resisting the roaring bows and arrows, and when the front and the cavalry of the Song army on the left and right flanks surrounded him, many of the sergeants in the formation had begun to choose to evacuate towards the rear.
The moment the cavalry of the Song army charged, the formation of the Mongolian army was divided, and they could no longer coordinate with each other.
The infantry is by no means the opponent of the cavalry, but if the formation is well organized, it can still defend against the impact of the cavalry, but these Mongolian soldiers would never have imagined that the Song army that attacked them had been fighting in the Monan grassland for more than a year, and its impact was amazing.
As the cavalry of the Song army rushed over, a large number of Mongolian sergeants fell, and the temporarily organized defensive formation collapsed like the wind blowing.
A small number of cavalry had long been targeted by the cavalry of the Song army, and they encountered attacks from all directions, even faster than the foot soldiers fell.
Xia Gui was in the middle of the army, this was the place where the Song army cut the men and horses of the Mongolian army, and when he saw the Song army charging towards him, Xia Gui pulled out the war knife on his waist and wiped it towards his neck.
A stream of blood splattered out, and Xia Gui's somewhat fat body shook slightly, and he fell off the horse.
。。。
Cai Siwei has withdrawn from the fighting battle group, led 3,000 soldiers, bypassed the fighting war group, and surrounded the rear of the Mongolian army, 60,000 cavalry against 30,000 foot soldiers, in Cai Siwei's view, a complete victory is inevitable, but this battle, the requirements are also severe, that is, not to let even a Mongolian sergeant flee in the direction of Haizhou City.
In other words, this battle is bound to be kept secret, and no information can be leaked.
The army led by His Royal Highness King Wei should have taken Lianshui County at this moment and controlled the official road to Huainan, maybe at this time, the army has already come towards Jincheng.
When rushing towards the rear of the Mongolian army, Cai Siwei didn't even bother to kill the Mongolian sergeants who were desperately fleeing, and the soldiers behind him would not let go of these Mongolian sergeants.
The 30,000 Mongolian soldiers, most of them are in the new vicinity, the southern army of the Great Yuan Imperial Court is also based on the new annexed army as the main force, the number of Mongolian iron cavalry is not very large, and most of the Mongolian iron cavalry is still following Ah Shu's side, and did not follow Ali Hague to Haizhou, so this battle cannot be particularly fierce.
Holding out for less than half an hour, the Mongol army began a large-scale rout.
They were attacked by surprise, and all the cavalry of the Song army attacked them, coupled with the long-distance march, these Mongolian soldiers were already very tired.
The sergeants who planned to evacuate the battle all fled in the direction of Lianshui County, but these sergeants soon found that what was waiting for them in front was gloomy bows and arrows, and those sergeants who evacuated in front and headed in the direction of Lianshui County were almost shot like hedgehogs, and they were already in a large row on the terrain.
At first, some sergeants chose to surrender on their knees, and some sergeants of the newly attached army had long heard that the Song army in Sichuan did not kill those who surrendered, and the best choice was to surrender when they were at an absolute disadvantage in fighting them.
With no escape on all sides, perhaps surrender is the best way to save your life.
When the deputy marshal found that a sergeant had surrendered, he didn't even care about the fight with the Song sergeant, and the prancing horse went towards the sergeant who was kneeling on the ground and surrendered, brandishing the spear in his hand, and stabbing several sergeants who put down their arms and knelt on the ground.
Seeing the deputy marshal rushing over, these surrendered sergeants did not dare to resist, so they could only try to avoid it.
However, it is impossible for the deputy marshal to kill more surrendered sergeants, and the personal guards around him have almost been killed, and the encirclement formed by the Song army is getting smaller and smaller.
The deputy marshal looked at the sergeants who were still kneeling on the ground with hatred, roared angrily, turned around and rushed towards the Song army.
The whistling bows and arrows came, and the deputy marshal waved the spear in his hand to block these bows and arrows.
The guards who followed the charge were not so lucky, and many fell under the bow and arrow.
When he was about to fight with the Song army, the deputy marshal found that there were almost no personal guards around him.
Chang Mingquan had noticed the deputy capital marshal early in the morning, and at this moment he roared angrily, and rushed towards the deputy capital marshal with his horse, the spear in his hand had been raised flat, and stabbed towards the deputy capital marshal.
The moment the spear and the spear collided, Chang Mingquan felt a strong force coming, he quickly stabilized his body, raised the spear, and pressed towards the other party.
is worthy of being the deputy marshal of the Mongolian army, and his combat ability is still strong.
The deputy marshal was also surprised, when he was fighting alone, he had not met a strong opponent in the Song army, and he didn't expect the opponent's strength to be so great, which made his hand holding the spear a little numb.
When the deputy marshal raised the spear in his hand and was about to stab at the other Song army officer, a bow and arrow roared from the side, and the deputy marshal who was caught off guard wanted to dodge this bow and arrow, but unfortunately his figure was not so fast.
The bow and arrow pierced his right arm, and a sharp pain struck, and the spear in the hand of the deputy marshal hung down.
The spear in Chang Mingquan's hand slammed heavily on the right shoulder of the deputy capital marshal.
The sound of bones shattering came, and the fierce face of the deputy marshal showed an expression of disbelief, and when he was about to turn his head to look at the scene of the battle on the battlefield, Chang Mingquan's spear was raised again, and this time the spear penetrated his body.
。。。
Chang Mingquan, who killed the deputy marshal of the capital, was a little annoyed, and turned his head to find out who shot the arrow, but on the battlefield of the fight, he couldn't find it at all.
An hour and a half passed, and the battlefield had gradually fallen into silence.
The corpses of countless Mongolian soldiers were lying on the ground, and more Mongolian soldiers chose to surrender on their knees, and they had been gathered in one place to wait for the next disposal.
The sergeants sent by Cai Siwei are searching everywhere to see if there are any Mongolian sergeants who have fled in the chaos.
In the sky, the sun has begun to flourish, and its dazzling sunlight shines on the ground, making the blood stains on the ground even more shocking.
