Chapter 338: The Queen of the Palace

Commander Liu, there are too many soldiers and horses in the Mongolian army, so I'm afraid we won't be able to withstand it! One of Liu Dayong's personal soldiers saw the Mongolian cavalry rushing like a torrent, felt the vibration of the horse's hooves stomping on the ground from under his feet, and shouted to Liu Dayong in some panic.

A thin layer of sweat soaked from Liu Dayong's forehead, and he involuntarily clenched the blade of the big knife in his hand, and shouted loudly: That's true, I'm afraid we can't stand it! Ordered the baggage battalion to immediately abandon the vehicles and hinder the onslaught of the Mongol army, and the rest of the men and others immediately retreated, and ordered the crossbow to be on the army! Resist the enemy with bows and crossbows, and we quickly retreat to the east of the river, without mistakes, move quickly!

So the formation of the army, after receiving Liu Dayong's order, when even if it was scattered again, the Song army rushed towards the ferry, and the soldiers of the baggage battalion immediately drove the vehicles to the front, and cut off the reins on the wheels, dragged these cattle and lost the carts, and also rushed towards the ferry.

The scene of the whole ferry suddenly seemed very chaotic, only the two thousand soldiers with crossbows and strong soldiers, still orderly, stepped forward and began to line up, the sword and axe men set up a shield and bayonet defense line for them, and the rest of the crossbowmen under the orders of the officers, nervously lined up, and pointed the bows and crossbows in their hands in the direction of the Mongolian army.

A large number of Song troops began to rush onto the bridge, and ran quickly towards the east side of the bridge, because it was too hasty, people and horses were crowded together, so that the bridge immediately seemed crowded, many people were not careful, they were squeezed into the river, now the river is still very cold, many people were frozen and shivered immediately after falling into the water, and had to throw away the weapons in their hands, and swam desperately towards the east bank.

Shi Bu held a long-handled axe, and led the army to surround and kill the Song army at the ferry in three ways, and the chaotic scenes of the ferry fell into his eyes, and he couldn't help sneering in his heart, the Song army was not much stronger than Peng Yibin's soldiers and horses! Don't look at them to defend the city is not bad, but as soon as they reach the flat ground, they are attacked by them, and they immediately become a swarm.

Liu Dayong didn't expect that the originally planned retreat would actually become this scene, when even if the scalp was numb, such a chaotic degree could be called a rout, and if it was so crowded, the military system was likely to be completely disrupted, and the result was that even if the river was crossed, it would probably take a long time to think about the whole team.

The sudden change made Gao Huaiyuan also stunned, his heart was bad, he had calculated everything, but he forgot to explain to Liu Dayong, when retreating, try to maintain order, and Liu Dayong obviously ignored this matter, although the play is very realistic, but this situation has evolved into a fake play, the originally planned retreat to lure the enemy into a deep retreat is basically going to evolve into a complete rout, and if it goes on like this, I am afraid that before Liu Dayong retreats from the transition bridge, the Mongolian army will bite them first.

Worst! Quickly send an order to Liu Dayong, and the whole army will retreat in turn, without rout! Ordered him to personally supervise the palace and delay the pursuit of the Mongol army! Gao Huaiyuan immediately ordered loudly to the heralds beside him.

A wise man must make a mistake in a thousand thoughts, this sentence is true, although Gao Huaiyuan has already considered things very carefully in advance, but he is still a hundred secrets, and there is a loophole in the plan.

After hearing this, the herald immediately rushed to the east bank of the ferry with the standard-bearer, at this time it was impossible to cross the river against the crowd to give the order, several bridges were already crowded with soldiers and horses rushing to cross the river, even if the herald had the courage of ten thousand people, it was absolutely difficult to cross the bridge at this time.

However, this does not affect the transmission of military orders, the Song Dynasty summed up a lot of combat experience in the previous life, the Song army in the Northern Song Dynasty, it compiled a very complex set of flags, through the flag hand to wave the flag, you can convey many established orders, and they are the regular army of the Song army, each army has a special flag herald, when the herald arrived at the mouth of the river, seeing that he could not cross the river, he immediately waved the flag in his hand, and passed Gao Huaiyuan's general order to the west of the river.

A herald nervously looked at the flag of the flag bearer on the other side of the river, and quickly translated the flag and conveyed it to Liu Dayong, who knew that he had made a big mistake today, if he continued to let such chaos continue, he would be blocked by the Mongol army west of the river before they could cross the river.

So he immediately ordered his lieutenant to lead the team to the bridgehead of several crossbridges to rectify the order of the retreating troops, and he personally ordered two battalions of elite soldiers, turned around and returned to the outside of the ferry, joined the queue of the crossbow hero, and laid a line of defense in front of the crossbow hero's queue.

Seeing the sand and dust raised by the countless war horses of the Mongolian army in the distance getting closer and closer to the ferry, Liu Dayong stood in the middle of the formation and raised his arms and shouted: Brothers of the Divine Brave Army, listen! I, Liu Dayong, am here with you and others today to defend against the Mongol Tatars, and behind us is the Yuhe, and our brothers are retreating to the east of the river! If we take half a step back, it's the river! More brothers will die under the swords of the Mongol Tatars, and our great commander is watching us on the other side of the river! Today, it's time for everyone to pull out a mule, a horse, and a yo-yo! I Liu Dayong dare not say that I am a fierce general, but I am by no means a bad race, today my surname Liu is here to ask you, are you willing to be a bad seed and lose the face of our brave army? Can you get back?

Although these Song army soldiers saw the Mongolian cavalry rushing towards them like a tide of black pressure and covering the sky, but when they heard Liu Dayong's words, they also aroused their blood, since ancient times, there are cloud soldiers who are bears, and they will be in a nest, the generals are the soul of the army, if the generals are not afraid of death, then the soldiers will not be greedy for life and afraid of death, and Liu Dayong's words today made their blood boil, these soldiers immediately raised their arms and shouted: The Divine Warrior Army has no seeds! Even if we die, we will never take half a step back!

And the courage of the soldiers of the Divine Warrior Army led by Liu Dayong also aroused the blood of the soldiers of the crossbow battalion behind them, who belonged to the Infantry Division, and one of the generals at the head also drew out his waist knife and shouted: The brothers of the crossbow warriors have also heard it, we are the people of the Infantry Division, and we will never allow others to look down on us.

After hearing this, the generals behind Liu Dayong who belonged to the crossbow warriors also shouted at the same time: Not we are all well-known masters, there is no bad seed!

Good! Joyfully! Today, the Tartars are here, so let the Tartars see the power of our bow and crossbow! God Arm Crossbow Ready! This crossbow warrior named Song Cheng immediately ordered loudly.

The Song army fled so quickly towards the other side of the river, a bit out of Shi Bu's expectations, he didn't expect the Song army to be so unbearable, as soon as he saw them rushing out, he immediately seemed to be like a stabbed hornet's nest, first put on a posture to resist, and then in less than a moment, it collapsed on its own, swarming towards the opposite bank, such a fighting spirit, and dared to come to Enzhou to relieve the siege? They're too bad, aren't they?

But at this time, he didn't think much about it, because the ferry in front of him discarded a large number of heavy vehicles, almost blocking the entire ferry, and the Song army couldn't fight the best, which just saved his strength, and he happily killed it, grabbed the grain and baggage and went back to Polu to pay the errand, and by the way, he got out of the sulking during this time.

Speed up, block them, don't let them run! Kill me! Shi Bu rode on his horse, galloping as he ordered.

The horns sounded in unison, and the Mongol cavalry shouted and quickened their speed and rushed in the direction of the ferry.

Four hundred steps, three hundred and fifty steps, three hundred steps! Divine Arm Crossbowshot! Song Cheng suddenly shouted while measuring the distance of the Mongolian army.

The soldiers with divine arms and crossbows in the crossbow battalion immediately raised their arms, pulled down the machine in the direction of the Mongol army's attack, and immediately took off from the crossbow arrows and sprinkled them down on the Mongolian cavalry that rushed to the front.

For the interception of the enemy's bow and crossbow, the Mongolian cavalry each has been mentally prepared, anyway, at such a distance, the enemy fires crossbow arrows, and it is not aimed directly, who is unlucky to fall on whose head, and it is impossible to hide if you want to dodge, some Mongolian soldiers saw the Song army release arrows, and immediately raised their left arms, held the round shield, and protected it above their heads.

The sharp crossbow arrows with the sound of breaking the air, crossed a half-arc in the air, and pierced heavily in the crowd of Mongolian cavalry, with the speed of the arrows shot by the crossbow of the gods, the armor of the Mongolian cavalry was not enough to resist, some unlucky guys immediately screamed, and they hit the horse headlong, and the cavalry that followed immediately stepped under the horse's hooves, and after a while, there was no sound, and they were trampled into a puddle of flesh.

However, such an interception was not enough to break the fighting spirit of the Mongol cavalry, and they did not look at the fallen robes at all, and continued to accelerate and roar, crashing towards the Song army.

The Mongol cavalry at the front changed into their own curved bows, clamped their legs and tightened their horses, and pulled their bowstrings in a semi-upright position.

Shoot the arrows! After Song Cheng saw the Mongolian army approaching a stone's throw away, he immediately shouted again.

The soldiers of the crossbow battalion, who had been waiting for a long time, immediately drew their bowstrings and fired arrows of their hatred at the oncoming Mongol soldiers.

Another rain of arrows rose into the air, and the dark clouds drifted to the top of the Mongolian cavalry, falling again like rain, this time the arrows shot by the archers far exceeded the arrows shot by the crossbow of the divine arm, and immediately a blood mist was raised in the Mongolian cavalry army, and a group of Mongolian soldiers were once again hit by arrows and fell under the horses.

Vertical shield! Shoot! Resist! At this time, Liu Dayong also roared wildly, and the knife and axe hand in the front row forcefully clubbed the horns of the big shield in his hand on the ground, and the two sharp corners under the square shield were deeply inserted into the soil, and the person holding the shield immediately put his shoulder against the shield, and kicked the ground with one leg back, ready to accept the impact.
