Chapter 80: Raid
In November of the second year of Song Jianwu, Lizhou West Road, Wuxiu Pass.
Wuxiu Pass, located in the Bao slope plank road, connected with the Bao Xi Valley, the cliffs on both sides are straight and steep, the two mountains are sandwiched by water, the hollow line, the terrain is dangerous, after the Wuxiu Pass goes south is Hanzhong, the Song army has 5,000 soldiers, and the army is guarded by the commander Pan Fu.
The night is vast, the cold wind is howling, Wuxiu Pass, which is in the middle of the lofty mountains, is shrouded in a fog, and the Chinese army barracks, Pan Fu, the commander of Wuxiu Pass, woke up from a nightmare, distraught, and couldn't sleep anymore, so he simply got up and sat down at the table.
Take a sip of cold wine, and it will be cold to the bone. Pan Fu frantically slammed his glass on the table and leaned back in his chair, distraught.
The early warning of the Mongol army going south continued, and there was a lot of noise on the pass, and Pan Fu was also uncomfortable.
"General, something is wrong!"
The soldiers reported outside the barracks, their voices panicked.
"Calm down! In! ”
Pan Fu was shocked, his face turned pale, and he sat up straight.
Panicked, what it looks like.
"General, tens of thousands of Tatar troops appeared from Huayang Pass and Yangming and Huangzhu Trails east of Wuxiu Pass, burning and looting all the way to the south. It looks like he's going straight to Hanzhong! ”
"What?"
The soldiers came to report in a panic, Pan Fu was taken aback, and couldn't help but be stunned for a moment before asking.
"Dasanguan and Fengzhou, didn't they stop the Tatar army?"
Wang Shixin of Dasanguan and Lu Yuanting of Fengzhou are both famous generals in the northwest. Can't they resist the Mongol army?
The Mongol army appeared in Huayang Pass and Yangming and Huangzhu trails east of Wuxiu Pass, the mountain roads were rugged, and I am afraid that it would take ten days and half a month to reach Hanzhong, and there was still a chance to report the military situation to Hanzhong.
"General, the roads to the north are blocked by the Tatar army, I don't know what is going on in the north!"
The sergeant replied truthfully, and he was also shocked.
The Mongol army was strong and strong, and tens of thousands of troops were coming, and if they couldn't get their own little life, they would be gone.
"What can I do?"
Pan Fu was shocked and sat back in his chair.
The Mongol army went south, from Dasanguan, through Huangniubao and Fengzhou. Now the Mongol army is heading straight to Hanzhong, and it seems that it is unstoppable and unstoppable.
"Have you found out, how many people are in the Tatar army?"
Pan Fu tried to calm himself and not appear so flustered.
"Endlessly, at least 100,000 people!"
The sergeant didn't know whether he was frightened, or if he said it casually, which made Pan Fu shiver and subconsciously tremble.
100,000! Didn't it say that there were 70,000 troops, why did it add 30,000?
100,000 Mongolian iron horsemen, even if the Wuxiu Pass is dangerous, I am afraid it will not be able to resist. Isn't this meant to bring harm to the world?
The years are unforgiving, and unconsciously, he is already fifty years old and knows the destiny of heaven, and he is no longer the high-spirited and ambitious he was back then.
I am used to living a comfortable life, with a beautiful wife and concubine, wine-colored wealth, and a heroic short-livedness. The Mongol army of 100,000 marched south, making him restless and chilling.
Wang Shixin of Dasanguan, a famous fierce general in the border, and his subordinates are all elite soldiers, how could he let the Mongolian army enter the customs easily?
Wang Shixin and Lu Yuanting can't stop it, can he Pan Fu do it?
Didn't the emperor already arrive in Hanzhong, why didn't he keep the enemy out of the country and let the Mongolian army enter? Doesn't that make it difficult for them to do it as generals?
The emperor was so desperate that he had to fight against the Mongol army, why didn't he dare to wave his troops north and fight the Mongol army?
"General, what should I do? Hurry up and report to Hanzhong! ”
The pro-soldiers couldn't help it and urged up.
"What to do? What to urge? Lao Tzu cut off your dog's head! ”
Pan Fu was stunned for a while, and then he woke up like a dream and said irritably.
"Yes, yes, yes! Checkmate! ”
The pro-soldiers only promised and did not dare to urge again.
"The order went down, and let people report to Hanzhong the military situation of the Tatar army. Dispatch 3,000 men to garrison Nanzhai in case the Tatar army comes from the south to copy the back road! ”
Pan Fu was sweating profusely, perhaps because the six gods had no master, and made a bold decision.
"The defensive ...... outside the north wall"
The soldier asked hesitantly.
In fact, he himself was not sure whether the Mongolian army had 100,000 people. Only 3,000 people were transferred to garrison Nanzhai, but there were only 1,000 people at the gate. Isn't such a long wall useless?
"Defend against Nyon's eggs! Get out of here, get the order! The Tatar army has already gone south, and what are you doing in the north? Are you a pig's brain? ”
Pan Fu scolded angrily.
"Yes, yes, yes! I'll go right away! ”
The pro-soldiers nodded again and again, secretly scolding in their hearts to go down to give orders, and soon, the entire Wuxiu Pass moved.
After the deployment of troops was completed, and when it was quiet outside, Pan Fu was relieved and sat down.
"General, what's the mess inside? Where did all those soldiers go? ”
A sergeant in a military uniform came out from behind the screen, took off his helmet, had long black hair, and had a slender figure, which turned out to be a young woman.
"Isn't this the Tatar army coming again. But they've gone to Hanzhong, and now they're fine. ”
Pan Fu wiped his sweat and was relieved.
"General, will it be fine?"
The woman was startled, she took off her armor, came over and sat on Pan Fu's knees, and put her arms around his neck.
"It's fine. The emperor sat in Hanzhong, and the Tatar army could not make any waves. ”
Beauty is like jade, and Pan Fu's hero is a little bolder.
"The general was really heroic. Wuxiu Pass is impregnable, and the Tatar army is coming, and there is nothing we can do. ”
The beauty put her mind at ease, and a soft white face was attached to Pan Fu's bearded black face.
"General, let's let the concubine serve you and rest."
"Beauty, let me kiss!"
Pan Fu put his hands up and down, picked up the panting beauty, and went straight to the bed.
Today there is now drunk, anyway, the Mongolian army has gone to Hanzhong, waiting is waiting, and the gentle township is also waiting, it is better to sink.
The sound of the watch outside came, it was already the fourth watch, and there was still some time before dawn, but Pan Fu couldn't sleep anymore, he got up after getting dressed, picked up a military book, and pretended to read it.
At this time, is it still useful to read military books? Can it solve the irritability and fear in his heart?
There was silence on the close, the cold night was long, and at dawn it was a good time to sleep. Song Jun was unaware that danger was imminent.
In the mountains and forests of Wuxiu Kanto, there are dozens of black shadows lurking, they are dark and strong, dragons and tigers are fierce, and they are silent in the dark night, obviously they are all well-trained soldiers in the army.
These are the elites of the Mongolian Wanhu Liu Heima, all of whom are brave people in Hedong, and many of them are hunters in the mountains and are good at climbing. They walked day and night, swimming and climbing, and it took two days until the third watch to reach Wuxiu Pass.
And on the mountain road behind them, countless Mongolian infantry horses had arrived, lurking in the valley, ready to attack.
"Remember, pass the order, this battle will be won and undefeated. Victory, the road ahead is smooth, burning, killing and looting, gold and silver beauties have everything. Then he went straight to the back of the Jin people in Hanzhong and destroyed the Yan clan. has made meritorious contributions, and I Liu Heima has been rewarded. If he is defeated, Lao Tzu will let his head fall to the ground, and there will be no place to bury him! ”
Liu Heima's eyes showed a fierce light and instructed his subordinates.
Taking advantage of the night to sneak attack Wuxiu Pass and open up the road to Hanzhong in the south is the first achievement.
"Don't worry, General! If you can't open and close the door, the villain will come to see you! ”
Adjutant General Tian Xiong generously received the order. With a strip of cloth wrapped around his forehead, he disappeared into the night, along with dozens of equally dressed daredevils, led by the Orions.
Liu Heima looked at the direction of Wuxiu Pass in the dark night, and his eyes were cold.
After breaking the Wuxiu Pass, the army can quickly move south to Hanzhong, if it can't be attacked, it's a big deal to make a detour.
At dawn, the fog was thick on Wuxiu Pass, the Song army was still asleep, unaware, dozens of Mongolian soldiers with sharp blades in their hands, one after another, climbed up the wall along the mountain path, and the Mongolian army dragged the rope to climb up, and soon the wall was all over the wall.
Tian Xiong led people to grope forward, closed a few Song soldiers who were napping on the wall, and lost their lives in a daze.
Tian Xiong secretly took chances. The wall is rugged and difficult to walk according to the mountain, and only one person can pass through the narrow place. If there were one or two hundred Song troops stationed at this dangerous place, if there were no guides from the Orions, thousands of troops would not be able to attack.
The dead soldiers of the Mongolian army groped all the way forward, entered the gate building, Tian Xiong and others fired crossbow arrows in unison, followed by knives and stabs, and more than a dozen Song soldiers inside were ruthlessly shot in their sleep.
"Quick, go down and open the door! Sound the arrow! ”
Touching the earth-shattering thunder on Song Jun's corpse, Tian Xiong couldn't help but feel a burst of heartbeat.
The firearms of the Song army are much more powerful than those made by the Mongolian army themselves.
"Who, what? Password! ”
At the gate, Song Jun saw the shadow rushing over and asked loudly.
"It's me! My own brother! ”
Tian Xiong shouted in his mouth, took the lead in an arrow, shot the Song soldiers who were questioning, and fired arrows with the dead soldiers behind him, and the Song soldiers at the gate were caught off guard and fell to the ground one after another.
"All of them!"
Dozens of earth-shattering thunderbolts exploded together, and the wall of Wuxiu Pass collapsed, followed by arrows, lighting up the night sky.
"It worked! Entry! ”
Liu Heima shouted, and the killing sound outside the north wall of Wuxiu Pass was boiling, and countless Mongolian army foot riders held sharp blades, and the tide poured into the pass.
"Kill Song Dog!"
In the dark night, the Mongolian army swept into the pass, and they held torches, which soon filled the entire pass. The Song soldiers who were sleeping were awakened from their dreams, and they rushed out of the barracks one after another, but they were greeted by the rain of arrows from the Mongolian army, as well as the indiscriminate bombardment of earth-shaking thunder, and many Song troops were shot over and blown up by the other side before they had time to fight back.
The Mongolian cavalry galloped vertically and horizontally, sacrificing their lives to fight, the feathered arrows of the infantry and cavalry roared, and the sound of earth-shaking thunder explosions was endless. The Song army was in chaos and looked for shelter, and many people retreated to the barracks, relying on feather arrows and earth-shattering thunder, and resisted stubbornly.
A large number of Mongolian troops entered the pass, and the artillery was also carried in, and at a distance of 100 paces, the same cannon rumbled, and the Song army could not raise its head.
Sneak attack in the night, although the opponent's artillery and earth-shattering thunder were not as powerful as the Song army, but the Song army lost its artillery and fought on its own, so it could only fight hard and retreat to Nanguan step by step.
