The army retreated, but Lin Heng, who was unhappy, still left a big gift to the Mongolian army, that is, he set the entire road on fire. He asked the soldiers to take out the remaining oil and spread it on the remaining few hundred meters of the road, and lit a fire. In his estimation, this fire road could hold back the Mongol army for at least one day.

Taking advantage of this day, he can make a good arrangement, and he can also use some brains about the Mongolian iron horses that have been withdrawn.

In the tent of the Chinese military camp, Lin Heng said to Guo Jing and Huang Rong with a smile: "Brother Guo, are you and your wife interested in meeting that group of Mongolian iron horsemen for a while?" ”

"Brother Lin is asking our husband and wife to lead a large army to stop the Mongolian iron cavalry?" Huang Rong frowned slightly. Lin Heng shook his head and said, "I'm afraid that we can't stop those Mongolian iron horsemen together, but it's okay to give them some trouble." Mrs. Guo, that's what I think......" Lin Heng said his thoughts. His method was very simple, that is, let Guo Jing and Huang Rong take the lead, and lead the martial arts people and beggar disciples to stop the Mongolian iron cavalry, but their blocking was not to block them head-on, but to attack and kill them at night while they were dark or when they were resting. The best thing is to make a few more traps and delay them a bit. Otherwise, as soon as the Mongol cavalry came, they might not be able to continue to stop the Mongol army here.

The two of them understood what Lin Heng meant when they heard it, and immediately nodded in response. Qigong originally wanted to go, but Lin Heng stopped him with a smile, saying that he was still of great use.

"Qigong, we are now on the plains, where we can only rely on pikemen and archers if we want to stop the Mongol cavalry. It's just that I'm afraid it won't work to let them go up like this, so I want the Seven Dukes to organize the beggars to help the disciples and surprise the Mongolian cavalry in a small formation. This leader is none other than you. ”

There are a lot of beggar disciples in the army, and the two armies play little role in fighting them, so they can only sneak attack at night, but there are too many Mongolian troops, and even if they sneak attack, it is impossible to go deep, so they will not cause too much damage to the Mongolian army. At this time, the two armies were already in the plain, and Lin Heng could only think of some ways in order to deal with the Mongolian iron cavalry.

His method was very simple, that is, to put the heavy spearmen and pikemen on top, and arrange some beggar disciples on both sides, so that the beggar disciples broke into the cavalry camp in groups of three or five, and killed them for a while, disrupting their impact.

Qigong nodded after hearing this, and promised that he would definitely stop the Mongolian cavalry and prevent them from disrupting Lin Heng's arrangement.

After thinking of the countermeasures to deal with the Mongolian iron cavalry, Lin Heng began to think about how to deal with the 200,000 Mongolian infantry troops. In the face of such a large army, a small conspiracy can only be a condiment, but what Lin Heng wants is this condiment, but how to use condiments?

Looking at the open space in front of the army, Lin Heng thought of using a trap, but immediately denied it. The infantry army did not go on a rampage like the cavalry, and the trap did not have much effect, at most it was just to block the advance of some infantry troops.

"There's not much time, whether it's useful or not, let's arrange it first!" Shaking his head, Lin Heng summoned the herald and asked him to call a thousand soldiers. Lin Heng instructed them to take out the iron nails that had been prepared earlier. He asked the soldiers to come to the flat ground in front of the camp with iron nails, and instructed them to bury the nails in the ground, and gently drew a line for the commanders to remember, so that their soldiers would not step on the iron nails.

After arranging the first trap, Lin Heng retreated outside the camp and dug the ravine again. This time, there were no trees on either side, so he had to nail the tarpaulin to the ground with a stake and smash the stake into the ground. In this way, no one who does not know will not see the trap.

Lin Heng then arranged a third trap. This is the last trap, he completely gritted his teeth and asked the soldiers to do it, because this trap can only rely on luck. He told the soldiers to divide three days' worth of food, and the rest was mixed with poison. In his opinion, in three days, they must evacuate, and they must evacuate as if they were fleeing, and everything else will be left here. If the Mongols are not careful enough to eat the poisonous grain, it is God who helps; If they find out, it will be tantamount to throwing away the grain.

The day passed quickly, and the fire in the mountain road had been extinguished. The Mongolian army rushed out as soon as possible, and Lin Heng and the others had already set up their formation, quietly watching the army rush out of the mountain road.

At the beginning, the army was in the middle of the mountain road, which seemed to be endless and imposing. However, there is a little less shock, after all, this is an army of 300,000. Now as soon as they came out, the momentum was completely opened, and the dense black clouds completely suppressed the momentum of the Song army. With this spectacular sight alone, the Song army had already lost.

Taking a deep breath, Lin Heng waved the big flag in his hand heavily. When Song Jun saw the command signal, a group of sergeants immediately walked out according to the queue. At the front, of course, there were sword and shield soldiers, followed by pikemen, and then archers. It's just strange that Lin Heng left the Broadsword Team by his side and didn't let them enter the battlefield.

Tens of thousands of troops set up in formation, shouting and killing, but compared to the Song army, the Mongol army did not show weakness, and when they set up a formation, the momentum was much stronger than the Song army.

The two armies moved forward slowly, and when the Song army came to the long line that Lin Heng had drawn, it stopped abruptly. The Mongol army did not stop, and continued to move forward. Seeing that the two armies were about to collide together, suddenly a cry of pain sounded, and the soldiers in the front row of the Mongolian army suddenly hid on the ground. Song Jun would not give up such a good opportunity, and the people in front immediately took out their knives without hesitation and slashed those who fell to the ground.

The Mongols saw their brothers in front of them hiding on the ground inexplicably, and then they were killed by the Song army one by one, and they were about to step forward, but most of them fell to the ground like the people in front. When the Mongolian generals saw that something was wrong, they immediately shouted and stopped the stopped army.

At this time, the armies of the two sides were less than two meters apart.

The two armies looked at each other so closely, refusing to give in to each other, and among them, many Mongol corpses were piled up. Just now, although it was very short, but a lot of people died. If you think about it, there are more than 100,000 people on both sides of the plain, and you may not notice anything when you look at it, but it is long horizontally. At that moment, most of the Mongols in the line died in a row, and most of them were at least three or four thousand.

"The Song army is despicable, and must have done something on ......the ground," General Meng shouted, and he ordered the swordsmen to retreat, and the spearmen stepped forward and poked the ground in front of them. Soon, the nails were pulled out by them. Meng Jiang's nose was crooked when he saw this, it was this small iron nail that actually took the lives of three or four thousand of his own people, which was really unbearable for uncles and aunts.

"Pull out the iron nail and rush me!"

There were not many iron nails, and they were swept aside by the spears of the Mongolian army, and then the two armies fought together. At the same time, the Mongolian iron cavalry in the back also rushed out. When Hong Qigong saw it, he immediately led the remaining pikemen and beggar disciples to block it.

The pikemen are in the center, in the shape of a half-moon, and the beggars on both sides are protruding. When the Mongolian iron cavalry rushed up, the pikemen immediately shot out to stop the Mongolian iron cavalry, and at the same time, the beggar gang disciples also rushed into the ten thousand horses in groups of three under the order of Hong Qigong, killing and injuring the iron cavalry.

Standing behind the army, Lin Heng stared intently at the battlefield fighting on both sides, and his hands holding the reins of the horse were secreting cold sweat.

This battle was a real battle between two armies, much more intense than the previous ones. Standing behind, Lin Heng saw that the flying severed limbs and the blood that were sprinkling, if it weren't for the pungent smell, maybe this would be a very poignant picture, but standing here at this time, Lin Heng only felt miserable.

As the commander of the army, he could only suppress the discomfort in his heart, and kept waving the command flag in his hand, so that the front army with heavy casualties retreated, and the rear army continued to fight. In order to preserve combat strength, Lin Heng did not let the rear army take the initiative to step forward, but completely let the front army retreat.

In this way, the soldiers kept retreating from the battlefield and regrouping to his side, but he didn't need to count them to see that almost all of the people who came back were wounded, and the number was much smaller. At the front, the Mongol army oppressed, and when the place was opened, more and more of their army began to surround it.

There were 5,000 soldiers, 10 teams, and 3 teams. When they completely retreated to Lin Heng's side, the number of people left was less than 20,000. This astonishing number of casualties shocked Lin Heng's heart. He immediately looked at the cavalry, where many Song soldiers had also died under the Mongol iron cavalry, but he couldn't see how many there were.

"The pikemen block the cavalry and the infantry on both sides, cut the ropes!"

Lin Heng issued the last order, and then led the army to retreat slowly. Immediately, the heavy pikemen were divided to the flanks to block the onslaught of the cavalry, while two men looked at the ground with a sword.

With a bang, the oilcloth broke, and a horizontal ditch suddenly appeared on the flat ground, and the Mongolian troops who stepped on it all fell, and the infantry behind them were also blocked on the opposite side.

"Damn, it's another trick!"

Meng Jiang roared angrily, but although Lin Heng's move was simple, it was very practical. You see, this ravine is more than two meters deep and more than two meters wide, and the infantry army will not be able to pass at all, unless they die and jump down the ditch to climb. Of course, if it was in the mountain road, they would have no choice but to Tianping, but on this plain, it was different, and Nameng would immediately command the army to move to both sides, preparing to bypass the ravine and continue the attack.

It's just that as soon as his army moved, the Song army shot an overwhelming rain of arrows, and General Meng immediately shouted to dodge, and let the archers return fire, but the Song army's attack did not stop, after the first wave of arrow rain, a wave of stone rain also smashed over, followed by another arrow rain, and then stone rain...... The two went back and forth, not giving the Mongols a chance at all.

Seeing this, General Meng had no choice but to let the army retreat temporarily.

As soon as the Mongol infantry retreated, the cavalry suddenly appeared, and Lin Heng immediately commanded the army and asked them to come forward to hunt and kill the cavalry. Of course, the cavalry was not stupid, and immediately retreated.

And so the first encounter on the plains ended.
