Chapter 62: What is that?
Looking at the banner in the opponent's army, Nahai couldn't figure out the identity of the other party, the scouts were all stupid, and they didn't know who this army was, but what made him wonder was that the Song army should not only send such a thousand soldiers and horses to rescue Jiangli County, which had been surrounded by their 20,000 large army regiments.

And the current performance of this Song army is also very strange, they must have detected in advance that their Mongolian army is going to solve them, but these more than 1,000 people did not choose to retreat towards Qifang Pass, but chose to build simple fortifications here, waiting for the arrival of their army.
This one made Nahai very confused, could it be that these Song people were crazy? Or do they think they are all immortals and can deal with them Mongol warriors with one as ten? This really doesn't make sense.
But after looking at the formation of this Song army, as well as the equipment and morale, the first thing Nahai can confirm is that this Song army is definitely also a brave army, because the quality of their equipment is very good, even ordinary soldiers are wearing well-made mountain armor, which is very rare among the Song army they first encountered, so he judged that this Song army must be the most elite soldiers and horses in the Southern Song Dynasty, and it has undergone very strict training, and it is definitely a strong force.
This may be the reason why the other party chose to stay here to fight them! After seeing this Song army, Na Hai secretly thought so in his heart, and actually made him feel a little uneasy.
As a commander of a thousand soldiers, Nahai has been fighting for many years with the tow mine, although it is not too good compared to some people, but at least the observation ability of the battlefield is still quite experienced, a short glance, he saw that this Song army is not easy to deal with, and the other party has built three rudimentary defense lines on the hillside in a short period of time, which can basically prevent the Mongolian cavalry from attacking the mountain from here, so the cavalry led by Nahai as the advance has lost the best opportunity to defeat the other party, And the other party has obviously calculated the distance, and a trench will directly invalidate the cavalry and archery skills that the Mongolian cavalry is best at.
Even if Haidang had made a wise decision, he would keep an eye on the Song army here, wait for the follow-up infantry to arrive here, and then attack the matter.
Gao Huaiyuan also looked at the Mongolian cavalry that appeared on the mountain, obviously this cavalry is not composed of Mongolians, from the color of the skin and clothing and the other party's flags, he can see that it is a cavalry team composed of color people, the number is not less than a thousand, and the color eye cavalry has now become an important component of the Mongolian army, and even the combat effectiveness is not inferior to the Mongolian cavalry, the quality of the opponent's equipment is not inferior, all the color eye cavalry are wearing iron armor, everyone is carrying a spear, waist knife, round shield, riding bow, And each person immediately carried three or four pots of arrows, and some people also carried weapons such as lassols and flails that did not belong to regular equipment, and their combat effectiveness was very strong.
Fortunately, today, the scouts discovered the actions of these Mongol troops and rushed back in advance to report to him, otherwise, in the case of being caught off guard, with only this colored cavalry, I am afraid that his soldiers and horses will likely be eaten by the other party, and even the bones and dregs will not be left.
Looking at the Mongolian army below, Gao Huaiyuan secretly shouted luck in his heart, his decision can be said to be too timely, and if it is a little later, this battle will be really difficult to say.
Looking at the Mongolian cavalry that arrived first, most of the Song troops did not know their situation, and each of them secretly looked at each other, and some of the less experienced soldiers saw that the cavalry below was not as neatly lined up as they imagined, and they couldn't help but start to feel a little contemptuous.
Gao Huaiyuan nodded to Li Ruohu, Li Ruohu immediately understood that Gao Huaiyuan handed over the command to him today, so he immediately nodded and shouted loudly to the Song general:
The crossbowmen stepped forward, using the stone barrier as cover, and ready!
The archers of the army immediately stepped out of the ranks, strode behind the low wall that had just been made of stones, pinned their bows to their calves, bent their bows, stretched out their hands and hung the bowstrings on the ears, and tested the strength of the bowstring with their thumbs.
In order to maintain the elasticity of the bow arm, the bowstring must be taken off when it is not at war, so that the bow arm is stretched out and the bow is raised.
Xing Fang, who was standing in front of Gao Huaiyuan's left, observed the distance of the enemy army, and thought that the place where the Mongolian soldiers were stationed had already entered the range of their cannons, so he turned his head to look at Gao Huaiyuan, with a hint of asking for instructions in his eyes.
And Gao Huaiyuan immediately shook his head and said to Li Ruohu and Xing Fang: Don't be in a hurry to use these things, listen to my orders before firing the cannon!
Li Ruohu immediately understood that Gao Huaiyuan was going to play tricks, so he nodded to Xing Fang, and Xing Fang immediately nodded and walked towards his artillery position.
No artillery can be fired without General Lee's order! Get ready! To the gunners under him, Xing Fang conveyed Gao Huaiyuan's meaning.
For them, this is the first time to come to the battlefield, so many people are both excited and a little nervous, and they are already eager to try, wanting to fire artillery and bombard these Mongolian troops below, after listening to the order, everyone is a little discouraged, so they have to put down the prepared torches and look down the mountain.
Nahai had been looking at the Song army array on the mountain, and inadvertently, he saw those strange things arranged on the two wings of the Song army, and he didn't know what was the Song army, so he pointed to the position of the Song army's artillery array with his hand, and asked a few centurions under him: Look at what are those things arranged on the two wings of the Song army?
His words attracted the attention of those people to the Song army's artillery array, and after taking a closer look, the sky gradually brightened up at this time, and they all saw those strange tubes clearly, so someone immediately thought of something they had seen before.
General Qiyu, it must be the trombone of the Song army, the Tubo people and lamas often use these trombones, and the sound is quite inspiring to the army, I think it is the Song people to boost morale! One centurion felt that he was incomparably wise, and immediately said to Nahai, as if his conclusion was the truth.
After hearing this, Nahai laughed, pointed at Song Jun with a horsewhip and mocked: These Han dogs, they actually think that if they put on a few more horns, they will be able to defeat our Mongolian army, haha! We're going to bury them all here today! The king's idea is quite good, surround the Song army in the county seat of Jiangli County, so that the Song army has to send troops to help, and then we will eat them one by one, today I will use this Song army to sacrifice the sword! Get off your horse and rest, and we'll attack it later!
The generals under his command laughed together, and jumped off their horses, sat down on the ground, took the skin full of mare's milk from the side of the saddle, and took out some jerky, and ate and drank.
Looking at the Mongolian cavalry laughing and eating at the bottom of the mountain, the Song officers and soldiers on the mountain couldn't help but be a little angry, the other party was obviously insulting them by doing this, and they didn't take them in their eyes at all! was so lax in front of them, so there was a preparation named Fu Datong who immediately walked in front of Gao Huaiyuan, hugged his fists and asked him to order: My lord, these Tartars really don't take us seriously, they are not talented, I would like to ask the general to take two hundred people to rush down to teach these Tartars a lesson, so that they don't dare to underestimate me anymore!
With a sneer on the corner of his mouth, Gao Huaiyuan looked at the actions of the Mongolian troops below, shook his head slightly, and said: General Fu's courage is commendable, but if you go down, you will fall for these Tartars!
They are waiting for the arrival of the infantry army behind, by the way, to rest their horsepower, and to mock us, but as long as we are not provoked, if we rush down, they will immediately show their fangs, if you go down, there will be no return, become their arrows! Don't be impatient, let's wait for them to come up and then fight! We have limited forces right now, and we can't afford to take such a risk!
After hearing this, Fu Datong had to retreat into the array, correspondingly, Gao Huaiyuan also gave an order, ordering the head soldiers of the army to bury the pot and cook in the back on the spot, so that the whole army could rest on the ground, compared to the Mongolian army below, they ate much better than the Mongolian army, and after a while, the smoke rose from the mountain, and the steaming meal was soon carried by the fire head army to the army with a wooden barrel.
Na Hai was angry this time, he originally wanted to ridicule the Song army on the mountain, and wanted to provoke the Song army to rush down and take the opportunity to solve some Song troops, but now it became the Song army to turn around and ridicule them, so he immediately sent an order to let the rangers return and urge the infantry behind to come quickly.
As a result, it was not until three poles in the morning that the infantry of the new annexed army of the brigade arrived belatedly and surrounded the hill, and the sea summoned the commander of the newly annexed army to the front, and after agreeing on the plan of attack, the Mongolian army began to move.
This time, it is obvious that Nahai does not plan to count on the new annexed army, firstly, he knows how the new annexed army is fighting, under strong pressure, the new annexed army should have no problem dealing with the general Song army, but today it is obvious that this Song army is not an ordinary Song army, so if you rely on these new annexed armies and the Han army to fight, Nahai does not think that they can defeat this Song army, once you expect the new annexed army to be pressed up like rewarding Hailasu, in the end, once the new annexed army collapses, it will scatter the colored cavalry under his command, in that case, He can only flee back in disgrace, and as a result, he may never be able to raise his head again in this life!
Therefore, he concentrated the new annexed army to attack the mountain from the front and assault the frontal defense line of the Song army, while he himself summoned the color soldiers under his command to rush up the mountain from the side close to the mountain road, and the two sides began to attack at the same time, so that the Song army on the mountain would lose the other, and finally as long as one side broke through, then the Song army could be completely disrupted, and the rest was to let them slaughter to their heart's content.
(It stands to reason that there should be a lot of red tickets in the hands of the brothers, so you might as well leave them all for me!) Thank you very much! Hehe! )
