Chapter 511: Great Victory

The drums of war continued to sound, and the tenacious Song soldiers slowed down the Yuan army's attack. It took about a quarter of an hour for the Yuan army, which had the advantage of both numbers and combat power, to catch its breath and break through the front line of the Zhongshun army.

Strength is the key to everything, as the saying goes, the brave wins when the two armies meet, and this "brave" does not refer to simple morale and courage, but refers to the comprehensive factors in all aspects.

Nearly 2,000 elite Yuan troops rushed towards the camp after paying the price of more than 400 killed. The Yuan soldiers in the back saw that the last line of defense of the Song army in front of the camp had been breached, and they were full of momentum for a while, and they got rid of the opponents around them and rushed forward together.

The musketeers opened fire in unison, and the ammunition struck the Yuan army's giant shield, making a loud sound, but it could not stop the enemy's advance.

"Ready to strike." Xie Daolin, Wen Zhang and others shouted angrily.

At this moment, the artillery finally roared again.

The explosion of "boom, boom" drowned out all the sounds on the battlefield. The soldiers of the Yuan army involuntarily looked back, only to see bursts of smoke, many cavalry and archery troops were blown up, the formation was chaotic, vaguely, all the Buddhas behind were being swallowed up by the smoke, and the fear of firearms spread again, making the soldiers of the Yuan army fall into a panic again. On the contrary, the officers and men of the Song army were in high spirits and had high morale. Under the command of Meng Tianxiang, the Zhongshun army seized the opportunity to intercept the Yuan army in front of them about five meters away from the camp.

The continuous artillery bombardment made the morale of the Yuan army on the battlefield gradually low, as the only general of the Yuan army on the front line, Boyan was in a hurry, seeing that his own soldiers were about to show signs of collapse, he hurriedly rose up and used a Mongolian shaman stunt "Plum Blossom Three Lanes", and in an instant, he saw twenty-seven identical spear flowers appear at the tip of the spear at the same time, attacking Huyande and Shen Mo.

In the world, whether it is a good hand at making a gun or a master with a sword, the number of spear flowers or sword flowers that can swing out in an instant is only thirteen at most, and masters of the level like Boyan and Shen Mo can only stab out nine small flowers in a reasonable way, and Boyan actually stabbed out as many as twenty-seven flowers at this moment, which naturally surprised Hu Yande and Shen Mo, and for a while, they didn't know how to deal with it, so they had to take three steps back to avoid their edge.

In fact, it is not that Boyan's martial arts have surpassed Yin Tianya, Yuan Jian and others, but this move "Plum Blossom Three Alleys" will dismantle one move into three moves, the spear in Boyan's hand can stab nine spear flowers in an instant, and the overlap of three nine flowers becomes twenty-seven, but because of the extremely fast speed and mysterious moves, it is difficult for unfamiliar people to distinguish them, and only nine of the twenty-seven spear flowers are real.

Boyan forced back the two masters in one move, and then fled into the crowd, and wandered around, everywhere he went, he shouted loudly: "All the generals listen to the order, the Song army has no troops to send, as long as we defeat the enemy in front of us, we can win a complete victory." ”

"Yes, General Boyan is right." The soldiers of the Yuan army, who heard Boyan's words, thought to themselves, and plucked up the courage to fight with the Song soldiers. Since the retreat has been cut off by the enemy's artillery, there is really no second way to go except to defeat the enemy in front of you.

As the cannon sounded, I put down my mallet and said to Zhang Quanyi: "The enemy is timid, Quanyi, you take the remaining 100 guards to rush for a while, and first assist the Zhongshun army to defeat the Yuan army in front of you." ”

"Yes, Your Majesty." Zhang Quan waved one hand, and a group of guards directly crossed the guardrail and rushed out.

In the noise, I couldn't hear what Boyan was saying, Yuan Jian said: "Your Majesty, that Boyan said that there are no soldiers to send in my camp, as long as our army in front of the camp is defeated, they can win." ”

"This Boyan is quite capable of doing ideological work, but it's a pity that he was born at the wrong time." I smiled and said, "General Xie and General Zhao, you lead the soldiers of the Imperial Forest Army to send the Yuan army on their last journey." ”

"Yes, Your Majesty."

"Remember, according to the usual way of training, you should form a formation against the enemy, and you can't be left alone."

"Yes, the last will obey."

"Jiang Aiqing, the officers and men of the Twentieth Army are almost rested, so let them attack together, this time we must completely defeat the enemy. I want to show Boyan that there are people in our army. ”

Nearly 20,000 soldiers rushed out of the gate under the leadership of Xie Daolin, Zhao Huai, Wen Zhang, and others, except for dozens of snipers who were still on the guardrail under the leadership of Zhang Shijie, there were few soldiers left in the entire battalion.

The Imperial Guards are well-trained, and although they have been in the army for the shortest time, they have the strictest military discipline, even if they are fighting the enemy in close quarters for the first time on the battlefield. Three or five people in a team, forming a formation, fighting more and less, those fierce Yuan soldiers were already exhausted, and they were killed by this new force, and they were suddenly defeated. Xie Daolin, Zhao Huai and Wen Zhang finally got the opportunity to go into battle, the three of them were strong in martial arts, pointing to the east and fighting the west, and no one was invincible. Together with the Imperial Forest Army and the Twentieth Army, the Song army surpassed the Yuan army in front of the big camp, and gradually formed a loose encirclement.

Through the smoke emitted by the artillery fire, Kublai Khan saw a large number of soldiers rushing out of the Song camp, and his heart sank, knowing that the opportunity had been lost, so he ordered the drums to be withdrawn. However, although the drums sounded, they were muffled by the sound of artillery, and only staccato sounds could be heard. You must know that different war drums represent different meanings, either attacking or retreating, and the drums heard by the Yuan soldiers in front were incomplete, because they did not know what the order was, and they were entangled by the Song army, so they had no intention of withdrawing.

"Your Majesty, wait for the last general to go up and give orders." Seeing this, Ah Shu understood that his war drums were blocked by the sound of artillery, and he could not convey the order to retreat to the soldiers in front of him, so he said.

Kublai Khan nodded and said, "Okay, the generals will listen to the order and retreat to the camp in Baihe City." ”

Yin Tianya, who had returned to Kublai Khan's side, suddenly let out a long howl, which was extremely harsh, and it was a secret signal in the upper echelons of Tianya, which meant to tell Boyan in front of him to return immediately and unconditionally.

For Kublai Khan, the sound of artillery was the sound of Hades' urging, but for Xia Gui, who was miles away, it was like a heavenly sound.

"Haha, okay, okay, I finally heard the sound of the artifact again, General Bian, order the troops, and immediately march towards Bush Beach."

"Yes, the last will obey." The commander of the carriage made Bian Juyi say loudly.

Bian Juyi, a native of Suizhou, served under Li Tingzhi, the envoy of Jinghu at the beginning, and made many military exploits, and the official was under the control of the capital, after the merger of the two military regions of Yangzhou and Luzhou, he served as the commander of the tenth compartment, because he was familiar with the terrain of Suizhou, he was transferred to Suizhou by Li Tingzhi and followed Xia Gui.

A half-box Jianghuai army soldiers, under the leadership of Xia Gui and Bian Juyi, rushed from the east to the Guanzitan camp.

At this time, Boyan was powerless to return to the sky, so he could only sigh, and then, Boyan heard the sound of war drums from his side, although he also heard it intermittently, he could understand that this must be an order to retreat, plus the whistling of Yin Tianya, Boyan knew that he should also go.

"All the soldiers, listen to the order, kill to the north, and break through." Boyan finally ordered.

When the army was fighting, with Boyan's martial arts, it was easy to leave.

For the decision to leave, Boyan felt quite guilty, as the deputy marshal of the Great Yuan Empire, abandoning his subordinates and leaving alone, it is indeed unreasonable, but there is no other way, stay and fight to the death with the Song army? That can only be regarded as the courage of a horseman, not to mention, he can't resist the ** of the musketeer at all, at most pull a few more pads. Of course, Boyan will not make this choice, and he will stay in the green mountains, not afraid of running out of firewood.

By the time 18,000 Jianghuai troops arrived in front of the camp at Guanzitan, the battle was already one-sided. Thousands of Yuan soldiers who could not break through were divided into more than a dozen pieces by the Song army, except for a few Mongols and Semu people who were still resisting vigorously, many Han and Jin soldiers had already put down their weapons. The shouting on the entire battlefield was endless, Xia Gui listened carefully, and turned over and over with only one sentence, "Those who descend will not be killed." ”

The appearance of the Jianghuai Army made the most fierce Yuan soldiers lose the intention of fighting again.

Xia Gui took Bian Juyi and other major generals of the Jianghuai Military Region through the crowd, came to the guardrail, and knelt on the ground outside the camp: "The last general, Xia Gui, see Your Majesty." ”

"General Xia, excuse me, come in and speak." I said as I stepped off the guardrail.

"Yes, Your Majesty."

I laughed and said, "General Xia, the war is basically over, and the heavy responsibility of cleaning up the battlefield will have to be handed over to your Jianghuai Army." ”

"Yes, the last general."

I hummed and said to Jiang Wanzai beside me: "Jiang Aiqing, pass the order, the Broken Army, the Zhongshun Army, and the Twentieth Army will be on guard a hundred meters in front of the camp to prevent the Yuan army from counterattacking, and the scouts will go north along the road to investigate, and the rest of the troops will return to the camp." After cleaning the battlefield, the soldiers of the Broken Army returned to the camp. ”

As soon as the order was completed, a burst of cheers were heard from outside the camp: "We have won, we have won." ”

The soldiers couldn't help but cheer: "Long live the emperor." ”

"Long live the Great Song."

This burst of sound was endless, resounding in the sky.

I walked out of the gate and said to the soldiers: "Heroes of the Great Song Dynasty, we have won." ”

"Won, we're victorious."

The smoke of the war slowly dissipated, and one by one teams entered the camp of Guanzitan through the gate. I stood by the gate to greet every tired soldier, and when they saw me, their hearts became excited, and I waved my hand to signal that everyone should not salute, but to return to their stations and rest first.

Half an hour later, when I sat in the handsome chair in the big tent, I realized that my whole body was aching. Although I have been practicing martial arts for many years, I can't lift my hands because of the continuous beating of the war drums. I took a long sip of tea, didn't feel hungry, and leaned back in my chair to rest. And after about half an hour, the congregation came to the tent one after another.
