To the west of the canal, north of Gaoyou Lake, on the endless wheat fields, Li Quanquan, who had left in a hurry, was heading north, and although his morale was low, he still maintained his formation.

In a field, Li Quanzhu looked back in the direction of the southeast canal, where the sound of artillery was still bursting, but it was much weaker.

"Hasn't Zheng Wu arrived yet?"

Li Quan whispered softly, his face expressionless.

Zheng Yande postponed and commanded the troops to evacuate, not knowing whether they had crossed the river in time.

"When the Song army came, I saw Vice General Zheng leading the cavalry to block the Song army, but what happened later, I didn't see it."

Liu Quan was lucky to cross the river, and he still has palpitations.

Li Quan didn't speak, and left after hitting the horse.

"Let's ...... Don't wait for Zheng Yande? ”

Liu Quan asked about Yang Miaozhen in surprise.

"General, the Song army controls the river, and there are no brothers left behind."

The sergeant who followed said softly, explaining Liu Quan's words.

"Life and death are fateful, I can't wait. Hurry up! ”

Yang Miaozhen whispered softly, her eyes lonely.

"Siniang, there are a lot of villages here, why don't you see people?"

Liu Quan looked at the surrounding fields and villages and shook his head.

Liu Quan's words were heard in his ears, not only Yang Miaozhen, but even Li Quan suddenly reined in the war horse and stopped.

The two of them looked at each other, and they both felt that it was not good.

Could it be that the Song Army has already laid a big trap and is waiting for them to jump in?

The two of them were suspicious, only to see countless black dots emerging on the skyline of the southwest and southwest, dense and terrifying.

The black dot soon became larger, and countless Song troops appeared, covering the fields, they had a clear banner, swords and guns like a forest, and the array was neat, stepping on the steps, pressing towards the Mongolian army.

Looking at their large array, there were no cavalry, all the infantry, but the number was dense, and there were forty or fifty thousand people on both sides.

No wonder there are only 30,000 troops outside Yangzhou City, and the highlight is here. It seems that the Song army has ill intentions, and he is already in ambush from all sides, waiting for him to be caught.

To the east are lakes and canals, to the west and south are the Song army, and only the north is unblocked. Surrounding Sanque Yi, the Song army was going to drive them north.

God knows if there was an ambush in the north?

But do they have a choice?

"Who knows where the north side is?"

Li Quan asked loudly.

"General, to the north is Hongze Lake, there are hundreds of large and small lakes, and there are many swamps."

A sergeant immediately made an introduction.

"Hongze Lake is full of swamps and wetlands, and it is not suitable for cavalry. It was necessary to defeat the Song army in the west in order to cross Surabaya from Xuyi. ”

Liu Quan has been to Xuyi several times, where there are many fishermen at the ferry, there are many boats, the terrain is flat, and the army crosses the river from there, which is the best choice.

"Brothers, when the two armies meet, the brave wins! Break the Song Army's southern array, the world is so big, let us stay! ”

Li Quan did not hesitate and made a decision immediately.

At this time, there is only a rampage and a go.

As long as you rush out, with the characteristics of strong cavalry machine power, with the long battle line of Huaishui, you can go there if you want to.

Li Quan drew his sword and roared, the army echoed loudly, thousands of troops and horses rolled in, the earth trembled, and went straight to the Song army's big array.

In the south of the Song army's large array, seeing the Mongolian cavalry rushing forward, the dragon spirit and the tiger fierce, Huainan East Road control envoy Du Gao, shook his head and sighed.

It's a pity that these soldiers, if they can recruit An, the southeast cavalry will be powerful, and there is no need to envy and envy the northwest frontier army anymore.

Li Quan was also bold, and attacked directly at the belly of the Song army, trying to win in a vain situation, but it was a pity that this talent was talented.

"Du Shuai, it seems that Li Quan is going to work hard!"

Thousands of troops and horses galloped in, and the deputy general Lu Wang's face was solemn, and the pressure was great.

"The end of the hero, dying and struggling. Why bother? ”

In Du Gao's words, there is unspeakable regret and regret.

"Du Shuai, why can't the imperial court recruit Li Quan? Is it because the official given is not big enough? ”

Du Gao's face was relaxed, and Lu Wang's heart was inexplicably a little calmer.

"Du Shuai, I heard that the emperor personally wrote to Li Quan to ensure that he would be happy for the rest of his life. Is there such a thing? ”

Another general, Gu Hao, asked curiously.

He is an officer from the martial arts hall, young and vigorous, and has a strong curiosity about the outside world.

"The emperor really wanted to recruit Li Quan, but unfortunately it backfired. Power is poison, and if people are too greedy, they will reap the consequences. That's what Li Quan looks like. ”

Du Gao looked at the attacking Mongolian army and frowned slightly.

"Alright, let's go and get ready for battle!"

Today's big war can destroy Li Quan, and the riots in Lianghuai should be calmed down.

This cancer should also be removed.

The drums were dense and breathtaking, and the iron cavalry rushed forward, and the wind and rain were fierce, and soon entered the firing range.

In the large array in the west of the Song army, the earth-shattering artillery sound continued, the white smoke rose like a wall, and the iron ball came out of the disembowel, making a terrible roar, splitting the head and covering the face, and went straight to the rolling Mongolian cavalry.

The iron ball flew in the air, covering the sky, some smashed on the ground, jumped and rushed, some iron balls directly killed the Mongolian cavalry, the iron ball came, the wind was invincible, the withering and decaying, the Mongolian cavalry turned over on their backs, and there was a riot in the riding array.

The sound of artillery of the Song army continued, and the Mongolian cavalry kept falling off their horses during the charge, with many casualties, and in the Mongolian army's formation, Li Quan's eyes were painful, and the generals around him were silent.

These cavalrymen are all Li Quan's descendants, but now they have been slaughtered by the artillery fire of the Song army, which is distressing.

"Song Gou's artillery is sharp and ill-intentioned, let's retreat north. Otherwise, everyone would be here. ”

The Mongolian cavalry suffered countless casualties, and Liu was completely colorless, and said tremblingly.

The Song army besieged from two directions in the southwest, with rivers to the east, and could only retreat to the north. Otherwise, these cavalry will be slaughtered.

"The Song people are all flowery and scheming, and there must be an ambush in the north. It's better to go directly to the west and cross the river from the Xuyi army! ”

Another general, Li Jun, said urgently.

"Don't say it, let's talk about it after opening up the south side. As long as you get close to the Song army, you can break through! ”

Li went all out to dismiss the general's suggestion.

At this time, only by working together can we successfully break through.

Li Quanjun's order was handed down, and all the Mongolian cavalry rode forward and went straight to the southern formation of the Song army. They struck their horses forward, slowly accelerating, the heavy cavalry in front, the light cavalry with bows and arrows, and the archers behind, and the distance between the cavalry widened, making a desperate fight.

Du Gao saw it clearly, and frowned.

It seems that Li Quan is going to fight the trapped beasts.

Let's make the artillery fire more intense.

"All artillery, ready!"

Ten thousand horses came and went, Du Gao's face was solemn, and he shouted loudly.

According to the Song military regulations, 50 people have a small cannon, and 10,000 people are equipped with at least 100 7-pound general cannons and 200 medium-sized sub-cannons. In the south, 20,000 Song troops, with thousands of large and small artillery, were eyeing each other and aimed at the Mongolian cavalry coming from the opposite direction.

"Pong! Disheveled! Ponto!"

The command flag was waved, and 200 general guns opened fire together, and the general guns fired three rounds, and the medium sub-mother guns leveled their muzzles and began to roar. As the Mongol cavalry entered the 300 paces, the small artillery opened fire again. The three types of artillery thundered incessantly, and the sound shook the plain.

Iron balls and iron pellets shoot sharply, forming a stream of bullets, covering the sky. White smoke billowed up, pungent and unpleasant. The smell of blood comes with the wind, making people feel sick.

The Mongolian cavalry fell one by one, the people turned over on their backs, the war horses screamed, and the cavalry screamed continuously, but the latecomers were still fearless, beating their horses and galloping forward.

"Kill Song Dog!"

The Mongolian cavalry clenched the weapons in their hands, urged the horses, and regarded death as home.

Countless earth-shattering thunderbolts flew out of the Song army's large array and rained down into the Mongolian army's heavy cavalry formation.

The artillery was fierce, but there were still hundreds of heavily armored cavalry rushing out of the dust and heading straight for the Song army's main array. Although the earth-shattering thunder rained out, the heavy cavalry fell one by one, and half of them still rolled in.

The light cavalry of the Mongolian army after the heavy cavalry did not count the casualties, they fired arrows in unison, and the Song army was constantly shot down on the Song army's position, and there was a wail.

The heavy cavalry of the Mongolian army rumbled over, the ground trembled violently, and seeing that it was only twenty or thirty steps away from the Song army's main array, the frightened look on the face of the heavy infantry in the forward position of the Song army was visible.

The Mongolian cavalry was in the rear formation, Li Quan's eyes were hideous, looking ahead, expecting the heavy cavalry to break the formation, not only the army could escape, but also hit the Song army hard, and let out a good breath of evil.

Suddenly, the heavy cavalry of the Mongolian army charged into battle like horses' hooves stepped on the air, knelt down with their front hooves, and threw the heavy cavalry on horseback one after another.

A few steps away, the light and heavy cavalry of the Mongolian army fell to the ground one after another, and countless earth-shattering thunderbolts exploded around them, and iron pieces and iron pellets flew wantonly, harvesting the lives of men and horses.

It turned out that the Song army dug a lot of pits the size of horseshoe in front of the big array, sprinkled a layer of grain grass on top of the cover, and successfully deceived all the Mongolian cavalry.

The artillery roared, the earth-shattering thunder rained out, and under the indiscriminate bombardment, the Mongolian cavalry was blocked in a narrow line of thirty or forty paces, and in any case, it was difficult for the brigade to break through. The warriors who were lucky enough to run out of the artillery barrage were obstructed by the pit and were ruthlessly killed by the earth-shattering thunder of the Song army.

The stumps and severed bodies, the human organs, and the blood stained the fields red, and the flesh and blood were piled up into small mountains, and the miserable situation was unbearable, like hell on earth.

The front of the cavalry was shrouded in endless smoke and dust, and Li Quan was dumbfounded, turned his horse's head, and headed north.

The firearms of the Song army are so ferocious, how many of the subordinates who rushed into battle can be left? Since you can't break the formation, change your course immediately and take it as the best policy.

If the Song army in the west also surrounds him, I am afraid that he will not be able to leave if he wants to.

Li Quan retreated from the battle, the cavalry who rushed into battle had no fighting spirit, those in the rear fled with him, and those in the front were still charging, fighting alone. The artillery of the Song army fired in unison, and most of the charging Mongolian troops were killed and wounded, and the rest found that the rear army had withdrawn, and they also galloped wildly and followed closely.

Thousands of large and small artillery pieces continued to roar, and the Mongolian cavalry that had withdrawn in a hurry continued to fall off their horses, and there were corpses of men and horses everywhere along the way, and the deaths were different and shocking.

Li Quan led the remnants of the defeated army to beat the horse to the north, the sound of artillery behind him continued, the cavalry of his subordinates fell from time to time, the sound of falling to the ground and screams came and went, Li Quan remained silent, only cared about beating the horse to the north.

The Mongolian cavalry that followed in panic around him was only two or three thousand horsemen at this time.

Li Quan led his troops south to attack Yangzhou, but in just a few days, the 100,000 elite army was almost wiped out.

All ambitions, a dream, have also vanished.
