The smoke that had originally blocked the view was blown away by the mountain wind, and the scenery below the mountain, which had not been shown for a long time, suddenly became clear. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info

On the official road under the Gubei Pass, the Mongolian army in a strict queue has been in chaos, from their flanks and rear, there are constantly Ming army foot cavalry roaring out, arrows whistling into the crowd, the low roar of the fire gun can be heard clearly even on the Great Wall.

Crimson flags appeared on the hillsides, official roads, and fields, gradually connecting into one, like tumbling crimson magma, and anyone who dared to stop in front of them would be incinerated and devoured by this magma.

The Mongolian cavalry turned their horses' heads in a panic, but such a short distance was no longer enough for them to lift their horses quickly, and a famous Han cavalry roared past them, and cut down the Mongolian cavalry next to them with a knife in his hand, and a red flag flew proudly over the corpse of the fallen Mongolian soldier. Countless Ming cavalry continued to intersperse and stab in the Mongolian army, and the red dragon flag that symbolized the Ming Dynasty also appeared in every corner of the Mongolian army array with the advance of the cavalry, and those black flags were like encountering the biggest natural enemy, constantly shrinking and retreating.

This dark cloud shrouded under the Gubei Pass seemed to be torn apart by the light falling from the sky, and was about to disappear in the brilliance of the sky.

Xu Chen's hand trembled slightly, and his precious clairvoyance almost fell to the ground. All the people around him who were lucky enough to see this spectacular scene subconsciously held their breath. At this moment, they not only knew that they had been saved, but also knew very well that this war about the ownership of Youyan between the Ming and Mongolia was finally about to usher in a winner.

The Mongolian soldiers on the city wall who were originally rushing forward with red eyes obviously saw the changes under the city wall at this time, and the knife in their hands was slowly put down, and the steps that had been firmly moving forward also stopped at this time, and some people even retreated timidly.

The Ming infantry and cavalry that poured up from all directions continued to impact the Mongolian army, and after several days of fierce fighting, the Mongolian soldiers under the Gubei Pass actually did not have much morale. In the face of the oncoming Ming army, the infantry was almost crushed at the first touch.

After all, these Mongolian soldiers are no better than the main force of the Mongolian headquarters that followed Kublai Khan to the south, and they have participated in several wars between the Ming Dynasty and Mongolia before, which also means that these soldiers have experienced more than one retreat and defeat, and their fighting spirit is far inferior to the cavalry of the Mongolian headquarters who just expelled Bara, not to mention the elite cowardly army around Kublai Khan.

Therefore, in the face of the overwhelming killing of the Ming army, these Mongolian soldiers no longer thought about fighting with the Ming army, but how to protect themselves. The whole army rushed towards the narrower and narrower valley road ahead, and even Boyan's own general flag was broken in the crowd and pushing, and the dull sound of the horn could no longer arouse the fighting spirit of the Mongolian soldiers.

"Marshal, let's kill you out!" A commander with blood on his face still had blood on his face, and rode his horse to Boyan's side, obviously he had just retreated from the front, and the defeated Mongolian infantry had already slapped heavily on the Chinese army array like a tide, and the Chinese army array, which was still very neat, was also scattered, and many of the guards who had been following Boyan for a long time disappeared at this time, and they didn't know whether they took the opportunity to escape for their lives in the chaos or were washed to which corner by the flow of people.

Sitting on horseback, Boyan's eyes were gloomy, a few years have passed, at this time Boyan is no longer the Boyan outside Xiangyang City who has been defeated by all the armies and only has its own brilliance, several years of failure and retreat, has consumed the last trace of youth on Boyan's face, but he doesn't know when wrinkles have climbed into the corners of his eyes, and if you look closely, you can clearly see the silver hair on both sides of the helmet, in just a few years, Boyan seems to be twenty or thirty years old.

A few years ago, when Jiang Hao was repelled outside Xiangyang City, the vigor has been exhausted by the years, and the eyes that once exuded sharp eyes have long lost their former brilliance, leaving only the vicissitudes that are difficult to taste. However, compared to the panic and ownerlessness in the eyes of the surrounding soldiers, Boyan's gaze fell on everyone, and he was as calm as ever.

"You can't retreat, retreating at this time is a dead end, quickly stabilize your position, anyone who loses your words will be killed; Anyone who retreats voluntarily will be killed! Instead of turning the horse's head, Boyan turned over and dismounted, drew his saber, and looked at the several captains and commanders beside him, "You go and order your men to resist now, we must get out of here alive!" ”

Seeing that these generals still had uncertain looks on their faces, Boyan strode up to the boulder on the side of the road and shouted: "Brothers, warriors on the grassland! Stop your shameful escape, look up and take a good look, the Great Wall above your heads is no longer guarded by many Southern Barbarians, and now you plan to spare these murderers who killed thousands of our brothers in Paoze, and even plan to send your own lives to them! ”

Boyan's body is not huge, but his voice is very loud and full of energy, and he can't see the old state reflected on his face at all, as if he is still the talent of the new generation of Mongolian pillars who rode horses at the foot of Lumen Mountain in Xiangyang that day.

Not only because of the majesty of Boyan, but also because he also knew that blindly moving forward was just a dead end, and the panicked soldiers around him were surprisingly quiet and looked at Boyan.

"Do you see those big rocks under the beacon above, the Southern Barbarians must have prepared firearms a long time ago, as long as we rush into the valley, we will directly blow up the rocks and block the road, even if you and I have three heads and six arms, we will not be able to escape this net!" Bo Yan shouted, "And the reinforcements of the Southern Barbarians have also killed us right under our noses, and they will not give us the rest of the way out, so the only choice now is to follow a certain one, kill this Gubeikou, kill all those hateful Southern Barbarians, and take the Great Wall. ”

Before the words fell, Boyan Huoran turned around and pointed at the Great Wall with a saber in his hand: "Rush!" ”

The Mongolian soldiers in front of him and behind him gritted their teeth and looked at the Great Wall above their heads, looking at the Great Wall where the fighting had subsided, and at the same time raised their breath and closely caught up with Boyan's figure. Boyan is right, as long as the Great Wall can be taken, it is up to the Mongols to decide whether to advance or retreat, and the Ming army can still resist the onslaught of tens of thousands of Mongol troops with hundreds of people, not to mention that the Mongol army here must have thousands of people even if they are excluded from the losses just now.

"Those who dare to retreat in a panic will be killed!" Several commanders and commanders also came to their senses, and directly rushed forward and kicked a few soldiers who were still trying to run in the direction of the valley to the ground, and their knives fell, and their bloody heads had already rolled down. The surrounding Mongolian soldiers are all fighting a spirit, even if they want to take another path at this time, it is impossible, not to mention that Boyan has already taken the lead as a Mongolian marshal, and these ordinary soldiers are not qualified to hesitate.

Thinking that the other side of the Great Wall is the grassland, which is the hometown, all the Mongolian soldiers have red eyes, and they closely catch up with Boyan's figure. On the steep slopes of the mountain, the charging Mongol soldiers surged like a tide, and the black banners were still waving in the wind, as if they did not care about the enemies who were already about to kill at the foot of the mountain.

On the Great Wall, the Mongolian soldiers who had already retreated one after another roared towards the steps again at this time, but compared to just now, there was no one on the steps to stop them at this time.

Looking at the Mongolian army that rushed up again, Xu Chen's face also changed suddenly. Although he has done his best to lead the team to resist the attack of the Mongol Tatars, but in the final analysis, there are only 800 soldiers of the Ming army on the Great Wall, and after the continuous bloody battles in the past few days, there are only more than 100 people left, and basically everyone is injured, and their faces are full of tiredness.

Xu Chen had never doubted the determination of his brothers to fight to the end, but now, after all, Xu Chen only had such a few people around him, even if they were all fighting with the Mongol Tatars, they might not be able to stop the Mongols from attacking upward.

Looking at the person who took the lead and rushed up, his outline was vaguely Boyan, and Xu Chen already understood what kind of calculation the Mongolian Tatars were playing. Although Gubeikou may be blocked by the Ming army blowing up the rocks on the top of the mountain, it does not mean that there are no other roads to go in Gubeikou, the Great Wall is a wall in the final analysis, and you can still evacuate if you go down directly from this wall.

Even at that time, Boyan did not need to eliminate these Ming troops who were still resisting, as long as there were enough people left to delay the time, the remaining people could directly retreat over the city wall.

"Blow up the enemy platform!" Xu Chen didn't have time to think about it, seeing that Boyan's figure was getting closer and closer, and the Mongolian soldiers who had opened the road in front had already rushed into the enemy platform, and immediately ordered loudly.

The arrows on the beacon tower roared out, knocking over several Mongolian soldiers who rushed out of the enemy tower to the ground, and Wang Yizhou opened the bowstring, and a fire arrow that had been prepared for a long time came out of his hand in an instant, and accurately shot into the lookout of the second floor of the enemy platform, and the explosives package full of the second floor was ignited at once, and the entire enemy tower was torn apart from the middle by this earth-shattering explosion, and the city wall bricks that had experienced hundreds of years of ups and downs were still unable to resist the power of the gunpowder explosion after all, and turned into powder in an instant. Along with the shattering of these bricks, there were more than a dozen Mongolian soldiers who rushed into the enemy tower. The bricks and tiles on the upper floor fell like rain as the support disappeared, smashing their heads and faces at the Mongolian soldiers who were caught off guard.

On the hillside and on the city wall, there are constantly Mongolian soldiers who are smashed by the bricks and tiles falling from the sky, and even Boyan, who is trying to climb up, if it weren't for the two guards around him who rushed up quickly, I am afraid that he would have become a dead soul under this brick.

The crowd on the hillside was stagnant, but after a while, it advanced at a faster pace, and it was obvious that the Mongols also realized that their side had captured an important node on the Great Wall, otherwise it would be impossible to force the Ming army to adopt such a brutal approach, which also meant that it was not far from eliminating this Ming army and retreating to the north safely.

And with the sound of this explosion, the Ming army under the mountain naturally understood that if they didn't move forward, I was afraid that the Mongolian Tatars in front of them, who seemed to be inescapable, would also escape.

"Supervisor, look!" A brigade commander rode a horse to Wang Dayong's side, stretched out his hand and pointed to the dense figure on the hillside and said, "The Mongolian Tatars are about to rush to the Great Wall, and it is estimated that the brothers of the two Huai armies on the Great Wall will not be able to hold on." ”

"It's embarrassing for them to stick to this Gubeikou for so long." Wang Dayong squinted, and his voice suddenly became cold, "The two Huai armies can't hold on, it's up to us next, could it be that Boyan still naively thinks that he can go up this Great Wall if he wants to!" ”

Before the words fell, Wang Dayong had separated from the left and right with several personal guard cavalry, and hundreds of tigers rushed arrows and artillery out of the military formation one after another, aiming at the Mongolian army in front, and with the sound of neat slogans, the muzzles of all artillery were raised.

The Mongol soldiers under the hillside no longer had any chance of escaping, so Wang Dayong had no intention of using such valuable firearms as artillery and arrows to deal with them.

"Aim at Boyan's general flag, and give Lao Tzu a damn blow!" Wang Dayong jumped off the war horse, and there was only a cold and indelible killing intent in his eyes. Over the years, the town navy and the Southern Expeditionary Army under the command of Boyan have fought bloody battles again and again, and it can be said that the Mongols killed by the Zhen Navy and the Zhen Navy have killed countless officers and soldiers in the hands of the Southern Expeditionary Army, so this time the road is narrow, and naturally there is no reason to let go of Boyan and the elite of the Southern Expeditionary Army under his command.

The cannon roared, and the hundred tigers rushed to the arrows and did not hesitate to show their minions, countless beams of light were like meteors falling to the ground, smashing heavily on that hillside, the already steep hillside was completely shrouded in rolling smoke and dust at this time, and the Boyan General Flag, which was still barely fluttering, also fell with the wind in this continuous explosion. The artillery and flying thunder cannons in the back also came up one after another, and the muzzles of the guns were aimed at the black and pressed figures on the hillside, most of these were not the first Ming gunners who fought with Boyan and the Southern Expeditionary Army, and they did not spare the shells and explosives at all, as long as they still existed, they would never hesitate to destroy them.

The entire hillside was no longer visible to the human figure, and countless pieces of rubble were blown open and splashed everywhere, even those who were not directly knocked to the ground by the explosion would be affected by the sharp rubble, which could be bruised at least and hit the vital point at worst. However, the gravel is quite relaxed, and what is really taken care of is the location of the Boyan General Banner, almost all the artillery and the Hundred Tigers Rushing Arrows were aimed at that direction at the beginning, resulting in not only no trace of the flag being found in that area, but even the people around it have been completely erased from this world.

"Brothers, Boyan's Southern Expeditionary Army has been our opponent for many years, and their hands are stained with the blood of our brothers in the town's navy, and now they are cornered, and now they are just stubbornly resisting. Follow so-and-so, go and beat these bitches all over the ground to find teeth, and comfort the souls of the brothers who have died in the war over the years! Wang Da drew his saber with Huo Ran and rushed to the hillside first.

And behind him, the red-eyed Zhenhai generals roared and followed, maybe these battle-hardened men still had a glimmer of sanity before, but now there was only a hot flame in their eyes, and any enemy who had a mark on the Southern Expeditionary Army, they would break it into pieces!

This is to avenge the countless brothers who died in the battle on both sides of the Huaishui River, this is to avenge the officers and soldiers of Li Tingzhi and Xia Guihuai who were almost wiped out in the first battle of Huaixi, and it is also to avenge the Han people who were oppressed and slaughtered by the Mongol Tatars.

Blood debt can only be paid in blood!

"Kill!" All the town's officers roared forward like an irresistible red tide.

At the corner of the official road, an army rushed over non-stop, but seeing the scene in front of him, the general who led the team grabbed the reins of the horse, and a division commander who accompanied him looked at the town navy that was killing in the Mongolian army, and couldn't help but say: "General, isn't Your Majesty's will to capture as many Mongolian Tartars as possible, but the town navy does this······

The Mongol army under the hillside actually had no fighting spirit when the Ming army showed a large number of firearms, and they had not been taught the power of this firearm, so many soldiers who originally planned to fight hard began to retreat, and some even put down their blades directly.

But for the officers and soldiers of the town navy, these are their enemies, and only by killing them can they be worthy of the heroic spirits hovering in the sky.

Therefore, even in the face of the Mongolian soldiers who laid down their blades, the movements in the hands of the Zhenhai officers did not pause at all.
