Ask for tickets, ask for collections.

——

The cavalry of the Yuan army did not charge directly, they circled in front of the trench, and retreated several miles away amid the sound of artillery fire. After waiting for a while, they scattered a dozen hundred-man teams, raised their shields, and covered up.

Wen Huaguo had no other way than to urge the cannons, bows and arrows to continue shooting. Watching the Yuan army approach step by step, cleaning up the thistles, keeping guests in the house, filling in trenches, tearing down fences, and rejecting horses. The soldiers were too weak to risk attacking out of the camp. Eight hundred veterans are the support of the whole army, and they cannot be sent lightly.

In a hurry, Dunsher sent a musketer. The new deputy Qianhu of the leading fire gun is Lu Qianxi's elder brother, named Lu Qianwu. The only one among the horse thieves who was born in an official family, he was originally a craftsman of the Daimyo Road Armament Craftsman. It was originally a firearm, so Deng She knew how to use it well.

When he came to the front of the gate, Lu Qianwu commanded 400 musketeers, lined up in three teams, patiently waited for the Yuan army to be within range, and took turns shooting.

Thousands of paces away, there are cannons, then firearms, and hundred-step bows and arrows, covering far and near, and the shields of the Yuan soldiers cannot resist it, and the wheat is also like cutting it, falling in pieces. But he did not retreat, and continued to move forward silently, and his courage was shocking.

The archers and firecrackers of the Yuan army after the infantry in the formation did not show weakness, but also colored. At one time, in front of the two armies, the cannon rumbled, and the sound was earth-shattering; The fire is blazing, tearing apart the night; The smoke of gunpowder was filled, and the arrows were like flying locusts.

The Yuan army is the wind, the fire is not enough, and the power of the bow and arrow is much weakened. Deng She's subordinates are all recruits, and their ability to draw bows and shoot arrows is really poor. Compared with the two, no one took advantage of this one.

In front of the archers, the gold-coated sledgehammer he was carrying was reflected by the fire when fired by the firecracker, which was extremely conspicuous, especially attracting iron bullets and arrows. Everyone knows that this must be a big official.

Seeing that the opportunity was not good, he hurriedly dropped the sledgehammer and scolded: "The tartars of the dog day, a group of broken households, have never seen gold? Look at the front of the Yuan army approaching the camp, most of the trenches and horses have been destroyed, pull out the ring knife, he looked around viciously, and forced a few soldiers who were frightened by the momentum of the battlefield, "The general has an order, those who take a step back, from Lao Tzu down, behead!" ”

He threw down his helmet, let his hair curl in the wind, and shouted fiercely: "Today's events are only death!" The pikemen stepped forward, the axemen was in the center, and the archers stepped back and continued to shoot. ”

In the front, there was Wen Huaguo's order to supervise, and then there was Zhao Guo's prison army. The soldiers had no choice but to line up at their orders.

Lu Qianwu judged the distance of the Yuan army, and also waved the flag to order his subordinates to retreat to the side of the archers. The first wave of the Yuan army's offensive ended quickly, and thousands of infantrymen, with dozens of dead and wounded, successfully completed the task and completely destroyed the blockade outside the camp.

Before the big tent, He Guangxiu was confident, with flattery and showing off, and told Deng She that he guessed: "The second wave of the Tartar offensive must be cavalry." ”

His face was indifferent, and Brother Huang Donkey looked very unpleasant in his eyes, and snorted sarcastically: "Nonsense." At the moment of the great enemy, he temporarily suppressed his dissatisfaction with Deng She, and said: "Deng Wanhu, the Tartars are tired from afar, why don't you take advantage of the situation to attack?" ”

"It is the infantry that is tired, but the cavalry is not necessarily tired." Deng She concentrated on watching the battle of Yuanmen, "The Tartars concentrated their energy and only rushed to Yuanmen a little, and did not rule out the attempt to attack the west with sound." "Order," the two generals Guan and Luo, stick to their positions, do not give orders, and are not allowed to leave for half a step. ”

Before the words fell, the cavalry of the Yuan army moved suddenly.

Divided into a column, 100 people up and down, wearing net armor, wearing iron jackets, horses with protective skirts, everyone holding two zhang long ge in their left hand. Suddenly galloped to the ground, and they all raised their right hands and threw short guns. The red scarves that couldn't dodge, the short guns pierced the body, and some were even nailed to the ground. Under their cover, two infantry detachments of 100 men of the Yuan army carried the crashing car up and rammed the tall and sturdy camp wall.

After the toss, the cavalry turned their horses and turned back.

Another team of 100 people, changed to light horses, impact, throwing guns. Obviously, the generals of the Yuan army saw that the bow and arrow were useless, so they changed their strategy. If it is repeated, the red scarf will suffer from being unable to get out of the camp and will be beaten passively. The screams were incessant, and some cried out in fear. When Wen Huaguo heard this, he ordered his soldiers to drag out the crying people, and shouted: "When you are in battle, you don't deserve the rumors, but those who loudly disturb the hearts of our army, military law: behead!" ”

The hand rises and the knife falls, and the head falls to the ground. kicked the headless body away with one kick, and the soldiers raised their heads, galloped forward, and passed the trumpet to show the public.

The bloody human head stimulated and reminded the new pawn of his identity. They are not outcasts, but soldiers. Wen Huaguo struck while the iron was hot, and shouted again: "The Tartars are brutal, and all the broken armies will be slaughtered!" If you want to live, honestly listen to Lao Tzu's orders, how many people are there in Tartar? My army of 10,000 people, waiting for work, and there is a sign of victory, this time, there is no doubt about victory! ”

Morale boosted slightly.

The herald rushed over from the big tent and shouted all the way: "The generals of tens of thousands of households have an order, kill the thief, cut off the first-class, the third-class merit, give a silk horse, and three money." ”

The gallop did not stop, and the second herald galloped over again: "Tens of thousands of generals have an order, and they will capture thieves in battle, each of them, with second-class merit, and give two silk horses and six pieces of money." ”

The third herald followed: "The general of Wanhu has an order, capture and cut the ranks, and those who are slandered and wounded, in addition to the merits, give the first class, give three horses of silk and ten pieces of money." ”

Before the big tent, Deng She's three hundred personal soldiers behind him shouted sonorously: "Tens of thousands of generals have orders, and they can make the formation of thieves chaotic, so those who fall into defeat are regarded as miraculous feats." The centurion is promoted to the first rank, the ten-captain is promoted to the second level, and the non-commissioned officer is promoted to the third level. "Shouted three times in a row, and the voice was raised by the wind, and the whole camp was carried out.

After the heavy punishment, there are heavy rewards, and there are 10,000 new deaths, how can there be no brave people who die lightly? Hearing this order, everyone was in high spirits. As long as you can make miraculous achievements, you will be a thousand households in the blink of an eye!

The Yuan army rode thousands of people, divided into ten teams to attack, and it was completed in a moment. The short gun is finished, and the axe is here again. The cavalry rushed around, bows and arrows, and firearms could not threaten, and the Red Army in the battalion struggled to support.

The cavalry took turns to attack, which was the usual tactics of the Yuan army. How could Wen Huaguo not know that as long as there was a slight defeat at the camp gate, the iron cavalry of the Yuan army would immediately follow and attack in a big way? He beat and kicked continuously, urging his soldiers to take down the red scarves that were killed in battle and seriously injured, and scolded Lu Qianwu: "You dog, aim for Lao Tzu!" Did I shoot you off the wall? I haven't seen you shoot down a single Tartar cavalry for a long time. ”

Lu Qianwu smiled bitterly, he had a good temper and never got angry. I don't want to explain either. In the current situation, how can he play accurately? Among the four hundred firearms, only one hundred veterans can deter the Yuan army and make it dare not attack the camp immediately, which is already very good.

Another wave of offensive by the Yuan army's iron cavalry ended, and there was still no rush to attack. Divided into two teams, the camp galloped back and forth, shooting arrows. They were no closer than the infantry archers, and the most skilled archers were far more damaging than the archers.

The camp wall near Yuanmen, after repeated blows by the Yuan army, was full of devastation, and many places were crumbling.

Chen Hu, who was arrayed behind Wenhua Kingdom, could see it clearly and knew that the general attack of the Yuan army was coming. He turned around calmly, his face sank like water, and said slowly: "Soldiers, advance and retire to death." Hundreds of households, commanded from the general flag. ”

There was a loud bang, and the camp wall was broken. The enemy infantry retreated like a tidal wave, and the cavalry entered the camp. Before the big tent, Ha Guangxiu was suddenly overjoyed.

Wen Huaguo threw away the knife, picked up the sledgehammer again, and crossed his arms with disgust: "There is goods in the crotch, the backbone is hard, stabilize Lao Tzu!" ”

The iron cavalry of the Yuan army crashed in, dozens of heavy cavalry in front, and the spears were broken everywhere they passed, and the people and horses were dead. Breathing kung fu, breaking into the camp for dozens of meters, no one can stop it. All of a sudden, flesh and blood flew sideways, dying screams, human heads flew up, and stumps were everywhere.

"Prison formation, those who dare to take a step back, slash!" Wen Huaguo's blood was gushing, his halberd was pointing and his eyes were open, and he gave orders with a fierce face; Then he pointed his sledgehammer at the back, and his voice was hoarse to boost morale, "You know no, you're not alone, there are eight thousand tigers behind you!" ”

Wen Huaguo was in front, and the archers and musketeers retreated another five hundred meters. At this time, the enemy and the enemy were mixed, and Lu Qianwu could not continue to shoot. He turned his head and saw the flag waving in front of the Great Tent, calling him back.

He Guangxiu turned to Deng She, bowed to the end, and said loudly: "General Qiyu, the villain has a good plan to ensure that the enemy is broken!" ”

Hundreds of paces in front of the big tent, the fireheads were piled up, and Chen Hu stared at the battle situation. The iron cavalry of the Yuan army opened and closed vertically and horizontally, rampage in the Wenhua National Formation, and the iron spear of Changge dragged back and forth.

The Ge they used was inherited from the Song Dynasty. The Iron Neck has a hook on it, and in addition to stabbing enemies, every time you stab an enemy, you will bring back an enemy. The red scarf was dragged horizontally and flew several meters away, and after falling, it often knocked over many soldiers who fell to the ground.

The array of Wenhua Kingdom, in less than half an hour, turned on their backs, and collapsed. The cowardly one threw down his weapon and ran backwards, all of which were hacked to death by Zhao Guo. Chen Hu took a bow, set up an arrow, aimed at the iron cavalry of the Yuan army with the most fierce momentum, and shot three times. Since the iron cavalry entered the camp, there were no injuries, and only then did there be casualties.

Wen Huaguo took advantage of the situation to raise the flag and reorganize the defense line. Under the threat of the sword and axe of the prison array, coupled with the courage and courage to take the lead in fighting for their lives, the front line barely held.

The thick smell of blood spread in the wind, until it reached the front of the big tent. Deng She withdrew his gaze from the gate, and he hid the tension and uneasiness in his heart very well; Turning his eyes at Ha Mitsuxiu, he asked, "What strategy?" ”

"It was dark and windy, and our army was leaning on the earth mountain with its back. The general, the villain thinks that it is better to send an army, rush to the back mountain, take more soil and sand, and shake it away in the wind. In this way,......" Speaking of this, Ha Guangxiu pretended to be mysterious, stopped talking, and smirked triumphantly.

No wonder he is proud, ordinary people really can't think of such a strategy. Brother Yellow Donkey was taken aback; Deng She was overjoyed, he had never spoken rudely, and he almost scolded two words of dogtime with joy. Ha Guangxiu smiled and continued: "In this way, the Tartar is against the wind, and we are ,...... with the wind."

Deng She didn't wait for him to finish speaking, sent his own soldiers, and went to the headquarters of a thousand, cracked the tent with a sword, thought it was a container, and went to the back mountain to get soil.

Looking at the Goryeo soldiers standing not far away, Deng She interrupted Ha Guangxiu's chatter: "General He, you also take your troops to the back mountain to dig with swords, guns, swords and axes." The tabernacle is insufficient, strip and take! After a pause, "If this strategy can break the enemy, you will be a miracle!" ”

Ha Guangxiu shouted the order and shook his head and went.

Deng She ordered Lu Qianwu: "Take your department, load the gunpowder and get ready, as soon as the soil and sand are raised, you will fire!" "It's still insufficient, so I recruited the archers in the headquarters and assembled them on standby. The rest of the crowd, sharpening their knives and guns, prepared to take advantage of the chaos to attack.

At the same time, drums were beaten, flags were raised, and Wenhua was strictly ordered not to take a step back. lest the earth and sand not come, and the array will break first. Properly deployed, in the end, he couldn't help but feel joy in his heart, and scolded twice: This dog is really useful. The palms of his hands were clenched with a handful of sweat, success or failure, just in this move.

Deng She knew very well that it could be seen from the battle situation at Yuanmen that it was almost impossible to block the enemy's attack with these new pawns. It's hard to win unless you have a miracle.

He has always sought stability, so he thinks about it repeatedly before the enemy comes. But when the enemy arrived in front of him, the more fierce the battle, the less impatient he was. Therefore, knowing that the gate was about to fall, he could still stand still. As for why the cavalry didn't move, he didn't think about it at all. There is no doubt about employing people, he has done everything that should be done, what use do you want? Disturb your own heart in vain. Of course, as far as his own judgment is concerned, he also thinks that the time has not yet come to send out cavalry.

Tushan relied on the rear camp, and the big tent was not far from it, and the coming and going was very fast. In a short time, more than 2,000 people sent out returned in a hurry. Deng She handed over the responsibility of raising the soil to He Guangxiu, but before the time came, the enemy cavalry had not fully entered the battle.

Then beat the drum and raise the flag, so that the Wenhua State Department slowly retreated, and let the enemy into the camp. At this time, Chen Hu's troops had already gone up, and the battle lasted for two quarters of an hour, with 4,000 people in Wen and Chen's second divisions, and more than 1,000 casualties. The army of new pawns. With such casualties, even if Deng She didn't tell them to retreat, they couldn't support it.

The cavalry of the Yuan army roared in formation, suddenly dispersed, and suddenly gathered. Stirring Wen and Chen, they went straight into the camp for hundreds of meters and completely rushed into the gate. Outside the gate, the enemy's infantry had enough rest, and they shouted in formation, and pounced on them with great momentum.

There were 800 people in the Heguang Xiu Division, in groups of two, some climbed to the bracket of the tent where the curtain was removed, some climbed to the flagpole, and some supported each other and set up a human ladder. Deng She gave an order, and all the earth was dusty, and the wind swirled, and the dust was overwhelming, sweeping away. Like a yellow dragon, it swept past the camp tent, and with the help of the wind, it was endless, pouring the front army all over the body.

"Drumming, heralds, Wen and Chen are prostrate!"

"Herald: Musketeers, archers, come forward and shoot!"

The change was protruding, and no one expected it.

When Wen and Chen heard the military order, they didn't have time to think about it, and out of Deng She's trust, they immediately executed it. Hundreds of households and ten captains shouted one after another, ignoring the trampling of the Yuan army's iron cavalry, and in the raging wind and sand, the soldiers lay on the ground. There were also frightened cangs, or beheaded by the prison array, or shot to death by the ensuing firecrackers, bows and arrows.

It's not enough for the wind and sand to fascinate the eyes of the cavalry, the key is that the eyes of the mounts are also fascinated. Arrows and arrows were fired, causing the horses to jump, foaming at the foam, and rushing madly at the horses in front of them. Many cavalrymen sat unsteady and jolted down.

The firecrackers, bows and arrows stopped slightly, and Wen Huaguo and Chen Hu covered their mouths and noses with knives and axes, preventing the wind and sand from entering their mouths. rushed to the front and chopped and chopped. The cavalry of the Yuan army who fell to the ground couldn't open their eyes, couldn't breathe, dropped their guns, touched the short sword at their waists, and defended themselves by instinct, surrounded by fire, arrows, knives and axes, and couldn't protect their lives.

Deng She personally led his own soldiers and headquarters to kill together. Their forces were overwhelmingly superior, and the enemy was in a sandy formation, taking care of himself, chopping melons and vegetables, and dying one by one.

The Yuan army outside the camp did not have time for this great change, and the scope of the wind and sand spread to their surroundings, and they hurriedly stopped. The attacking camp turned into a circle formation, and the opportunity to change the attack to retreat. Monk Li, who was outside the camp, couldn't hold back for a long time, if it wasn't for Lu Qianxi's repeated dissuasion, when Chen Hubu went up, he would have rushed out of the battle.

At this time, an order was given, and nine hundred cavalry went around from behind the mountain, ignoring the Yuan army in the camp, and rushed into the infantry formation outside the camp.

The infantry of the Yuan army was around 5,000 men. Red Turban cavalry, with a majority of raw hands. After a long time of impact, although there were many casualties due to the wind and sand, there were not many kills. Several times he rushed into battle, and he couldn't enter half a step. Seeing that the wind and sand were gradually slowing down, the Yuan army was still in a stable camp, with swords and guns outside, bows and arrows, and fire guns in the center. Monk Li was very angry, and the Haikou boasted before leaving the camp was still in his ears, and in such a favorable situation, if he could not break the enemy, he really had no face to return to the army.

He took his junior brother Li Zifan and more than a dozen monks and soldiers to rush to the front to be the front. Lu Qianxi followed behind, covering both wings. Inch by inch, in the midst of the bitter battle, I suddenly heard the fire of fire, and the army shouted: "All the Tartar cavalry have been annihilated!" Great Song Tianwei, tens of thousands of generals, soldiers pointed out, those who follow me live and those who oppose me die. ”

With the shouting, countless heads were thrown in the air and fell into the Yuan army's infantry formation. Two cannons, Wen Huaguo also pulled out, aimed at the enemy formation, and opened fire. There are only two cannons, and the lethality is not large, but in the case of not being able to open their eyes, with fire guns and bows, the deterrent effect is not small.

The Yuan army marched into formation, and gradually became unable to resist. Raising his feet and retreating, he encountered all the heads of the cavalry, and his morale plummeted.

"Heaven is virtuous and good, tens of thousands of generals order, those who abandon their weapons and surrender will be treated preferentially; Those who do not descend to the rank of official shall be appointed by their official position. Deng She transferred out of Guan and Luo and poured out. Monk Li attacked one side, 8,000 people attacked both sides, and 1,000 people shouted. There is only one bluff flag left, and one side of the net is opened.

The enemy is elite, and Deng She is afraid that they will desperately break through and lose more than they gain.

Monk Li felt less and less resistance, and there was a lot of noise in the Yuan army. The sound of drums and trumpets, the shouting and scolding of the officers, and the exclamations of the soldiers all came to my ears. In the windy and sandy night, they couldn't see clearly, only around the formation, flags were all over, and there were countless red scarves with countless shadows. They were originally a combination of military horses from the two places, and although they were good at fighting, it was inevitable that there would be discord between military orders with each other.

The direction of Monk Li's attack was first chaotic. One side spreads to the other, the anthill bursts, and almost at the same time, the whole array is in chaos. The flag is upside down, trampling on each other. The red scarf is like a bamboo. The surrender of small units began to appear.

A Yuan army accurately judged the location of the suspicious soldiers deployed by Deng She, led by several generals, and broke through. Ignoring the remaining Yuan army, he walked away.

Seeing this, Deng She couldn't help but admire: "Seeing the danger, there is no chaos, and there is a stop to advance and retreat." Seeing that the defeat was out of control, he gave up decisively; In the midst of the chaos, we can accurately judge the reality of our army, and we are really elite generals. He was apprehensive about the combat strength of the Yuan army, and he was strictly ordered not to catch up. Concentrate on dealing with the enemies in the siege.

In the middle of the night, the sky was white, and it was about to dawn.

The Yuan army that broke through and left was about 2,000 people, and the rest finally couldn't hold on, and surrendered in large numbers. Several officers who fought to the death were either easily killed by the red scarf, or they were surrounded by his subordinates and dismembered their corpses.

In front of the chaotic army, Wen Huaguo's face was covered with mud and blood, his hair was scattered on the side of his face, and the cloak behind him was tattered. Sitting on the captured horse, he raised the golden sledgehammer and laughed loudly: "General, it is indeed the wind of victory!"

Even happier than him was He Guangxiu, gray-headed and dirty-faced, standing behind Deng She with full spirit, and his heart was full of joy: "Miraculous feat!" Miraculous! As he spoke, he squinted at Brother Huang Donkey, the meaning was obvious, he knew that he couldn't be a 10,000 households, so he had a position of deputy 10,000 households, and he was nine out of ten. Thinking of the proud, the hands danced.

Brother Huang Donkey turned his head angrily and didn't look at his villain's ambition. With great hatred in his heart, he was in the same position as such a lowly stick, and he was not even more powerful than him, and he gritted his teeth and thought, what a great shame.

Deng She didn't know what the two of them were thinking, looking at the battlefield full of corpses, the jubilant victory red scarf, and the Yuan army kneeling on the ground and begging for surrender; Recalling the battle, thinking of the strength of the Yuan army, he was lucky, surprised and happy, and his heart was surging.

In the eastern sky, a round of red sun erupted, dispelling the haze of many days. The banner hunts and flies, the wind is still cold, but the armor is hot.

——

1. Armament Craftsman Lifting Division.

The Yuan Dynasty specialized in conquest and always attached importance to the manufacture of weapons.

In terms of firearms, they were deeply influenced by the Song Dynasty, and with the participation of the Hui people, they were very developed. In the central government, there is the Armament Institute, and in the localities, there are the Armament Craftsmen Lifting Division and the Ordnance Bureau set up in Zhulu, and the various manufacturing bureaus in Luxiazhou and County are under the jurisdiction of the whole country.

2. Three-stage shooting.

It was first recorded in the history books and was used by Zhu Yuanzhang's son Mu Ying when he broke the enemy in Yunnan. However, at that time, not long after the chaos at the end of the Yuan Dynasty, the Yuan army and the righteous army of all walks of life were extremely prosperous with firearms, and perhaps this shooting method had already appeared at that time.

3, Yuan army cavalry.

Carry a bow, an axe, a knife, and a spear, and you must bring a hammer (lv, a sharpening tool) to sharpen the crossbow. There are as many as two or three bows for good shooting, and two or three quivers full of arrows.
