096 Smoke Everywhere (5)

The four of them discussed in the house for a day, and several of them knew that the method given by Lin Heng was good, but there were too many people who died in this method, so that the two of them could not make up their minds.

There was no way, Lin Heng could only retreat to the next best thing, let Guo Jing, Qigong and others recruit and train troops first, and transfer troops to the front line to make certain arrangements. It's just that he still urged the two of them to make up their minds quickly, otherwise it would be too late for the Mongol army to attack.

The next day, Guo Jing and Hong Qigong explained the recruitment, but the two of them were worried and clung to their hair. During this period, they also asked Huang Rong, Lu Youjiao and others, but the two of them couldn't give any good solutions. This big war, it's a tough big war, even if you don't want to touch it, it's not okay.

If nothing else, let's talk about the 300,000 Mongolian army, how do you stop it?

If you only rely on towns, you can't stop it at all, and more importantly, the more than 20 towns on the front line have just been recovered. Only by hitting hard once can we strengthen everyone's confidence.

Of course, Lin Heng also had other ways, that is, to give up the town and retreat to the Song Realm. It's just that this method is not possible at all in this era, and after Xiangyang, the mainland is flat, with the soldiers of the Song Dynasty, how can they stop the Mongolian iron cavalry?

So after thinking about it, only this desperate method is available, can be used, and works.

On the third day, Hong Qigong and Guo Jing finally made a decision, they adopted Lin Heng's method, because the two of them also knew that there was no way to do it, and although this method would kill and injure the Song people, but at the same time, it could also inflict heavy losses on the Mongolian army, so that they could no longer walk at will.

If you make up your mind, you will naturally gather an army. Under the personal command of the two, the 20,000 regular troops in Xiangyang City immediately gathered and gathered more than 10,000 recruits. After several people, they left 3,000 veterans to defend the city and take on the task of training other recruits, and the remaining 27,000 people were on their way to the front. At the same time, Guo Jing also sent generals to ask the defenders of all towns to gather 3,000 to 5,000 old and new mixed troops and rush to the front line to gather.

More than a month later, about 130,000 Song troops assembled at the predetermined location. The densely packed barracks stretched for more than ten miles, and countless heads kept jumping in the barracks.

Seeing that the army was assembled, Guo Jing immediately ordered the second general, that is, the recruits and veterans were separated, and the recruits followed Lin Heng's arrangement to dig traps, and the veterans practiced the array. After the trap was dug up, those recruits also joined the training, and Guo Jing used the old to bring the new into various camps, and familiarized himself with the military tactics with the veterans.

Soon, the Mongol army came.

The 300,000 Mongol army was even more spectacular than the Song army, and the first was 100,000 iron horsemen, and a team of horses galloped over, giving the Song army a great shock. After that, the 200,000 infantry soldiers shouted trumpets, and the powerful momentum made the Song army silent.

When all the Mongol armies were assembled, the Mongol Khan Meng Ge decided to give the Song army a dismount, and the Song army on the opposite side was really not taken seriously by him. He had already received news that the so-called 100,000 army was simply a rabble. Therefore, not long after the Mongol army stopped, 100,000 Mongol cavalry moved. They pressed towards the Song Dynasty army like a black cloud.

"100,000 iron horses, it's really spectacular!" In front of the army, Lin Heng sighed and said to Guo Jing beside him: "Brother Guo, let the pikemen come forward!" ”

"Good!" Guo Jing nodded, and immediately waved the array flag in his hand. Behind them, 10,000 pikemen walked out in unison. Under the leadership of the generals of the First Song Army, they slowly advanced about three hundred paces, and the army, under the command of Guo Jing, slowly retreated back for some distance.

"Kill!"

More than 100,000 people shouted to kill in unison, and the scene was really shocking. It's just that the three Mongolian iron horsemen who had just rushed to the front of the 10,000 pikemen didn't have time to wave the scimitar in their hands, and they fell down one by one. Taking advantage of this opportunity, the pikemen immediately took two quick steps forward, and then rows of spears stabbed out in unison, taking the lives of the Mongol soldiers who came forward.

"Everyone, be careful, there's a ditch ahead!"

Lin Heng's first trap was the deep ditch across the continent. This ditch, one meter long and two meters deep, has a bamboo robbery under it, taking people's lives. However, in order to effectively combat the Mongol army, he did not lay out the trap, but covered it with a layer of cloth, covered it with loess, and then let the pikemen stand outside the trap. When the Mongolian iron cavalry rushed and fell into the hook, those who did not die were immediately killed.

This hook didn't cost many Mongolian iron horsemen, because the road was not wide enough to allow the measured iron horsemen to cross and horizontally, but if you count it carefully, this time the trap also took the lives of at least 2,000 Mongolians.

Two-thirds of the iron horsemen who attacked at the beginning were killed, and the rest of the horses quickly retreated, while the army that followed also stopped at the first time. The galloping iron rider suddenly stopped, and this visual difference was really shocking. At the same time, this also had to make Lin Heng, Hong Qigong, Guo Jing, Huang Rong and everyone admire: "What a strong army!" ”

The Mongol horsemen stopped for a moment, but immediately rushed again, for the two thousand dead bodies and horse corpses had paved the way for them. This time, they rushed straight over.

Looking at the leaping iron horsemen, the front soldiers of the pikes immediately moved a few points to the sides, and the people hidden in the queue rushed forward. If you look closely, every five of them have raised a huge stick, which is half a human weight and four or five meters long. In the face of the leaping iron horses, the soldiers with large sticks stepped forward and blocked the road, and the iron horses were also blocked by the big sticks. Taking advantage of this opportunity, the other pikemen fired again and attacked the Mongol cavalry.

This is Lin Heng's second move.

Everyone knows that pikemen restrain cavalry to a certain extent, and Song Jiang has a lot of pikemen, which can allow them to restrain Mongolian iron cavalry, but it is unrealistic. Therefore, Lin Heng asked people to cut down a lot of big trees, use trees as guns, and use the strength of losing people to directly resist the rushing horses. In this way, not only did the cavalry keep the cavalry out of the spearmen and save themselves, but also allowed other pikemen to instantly attack and kill some of the Mongol iron cavalry.

It can be said that in order to kill and injure the vitality of the Mongolian iron horse, Lin Heng went crazy and tried to find a way.

The Mongol army is not stupid, at first they thought of smashing the pikemen of the Song army, but now that they have been blocked twice, they naturally have to find a way. For the Song army, breaking this formation is to let the archers of the infantry army step forward, but they don't need to do this to the Mongolian iron arrows, because they are good at riding and archery one by one. No, after being blocked again, the cavalry generals behind immediately shouted: "Shoot with bows and arrows!" ”

Seeing the Mongol iron cavalry doing this, the generals of the Song army immediately waved their flags, and the small soldiers below blew their horns, and they quickly retreated. It's just that the Mongols moved quickly, and a round of arrows came down, and some of the people were killed. And when the Mongols saw the Song people retreating, they immediately chased after them, and prepared to shoot arrows while chasing, and then they had just chased dozens of steps, and the Mongolian iron cavalry in front fell to the ground again, and the Mongolian iron cavalry in front fell into Lin Heng's trap again.

This trap is the same as the first, except that the cloth carrying the loess becomes a strong tarpaulin, and there are ropes at both ends to tie it. When the Song army retreated and the Mongol army caught up, the Song army guarding the rope cut the rope to block the Mongol pursuit, so that the Song army could return smoothly.

Sure enough, this trick was useful, seeing that the iron cavalry in front of him fell into the trap of the Song people again, the iron cavalry behind immediately stopped and stopped chasing. They could only watch as the Song army slowly retreated into the rear.

"Guo Daxia, we have killed and injured more than 3,500 Mongols in this formation, and we have achieved the predetermined goal." As soon as the team leader came back, he came to Guo Jing and the four of them and gave them a report.

Guo Jing nodded and asked, "How many people have we lost ourselves?" ”

"I just counted, and there are about 1,000 people who died in front and more than 500 who were injured." Song Jiang's face was a little smug, but he really had to be happy. Fifteen thousand to three thousand-five! With a ratio of more than one to two, this is a big victory for Song Jun.

"Very well, you go down." Guo Jing nodded, and said to Lin Heng beside him: "Brother Lin, the first time we did better than expected." ”

Lin Heng laughed undeniably and said, "Brother Guo, don't be careless. This time, it was the Mongols who were unprepared and wanted to give us a dismount. Now, seeing our preparations, they may not be so impulsive anymore. I think the next is the Mongol infantry army. It's time for us to play the Broadswords. ”
