Time is like a rush, surging forward, and unconsciously, another two years have passed.

On this day, the sky was dark, there was a fire in the distance, the goshawk rode a war horse, his eyes were like war eagles, looking keenly at the enemy formation, the sound of the earth shaking sounded in his ears, he breathed deeply, and when he isolated the surrounding sounds, between heaven and earth, but heard his own heartbeat, breathing, tremors, and the sound of blood boiling.

Beside him, he said in a deep voice: "The Tartar is here!"

Yes, after a year of rest and conquest, the Mongol army stepped into the iron hooves, continued to attack the city and plundered the land, the front towns have fallen, and the rear cities have also surrendered, they have surrounded Yangzhou City, cut off the surrounding roads, Yangzhou City is isolated, has been besieged for half a year.

The food and grass in the city were in short supply, but the morale of the soldiers in the city was still high, and they swore to resist the enemy to the death, and no one surrendered to the Mongols.

Goshawk felt that the soldiers beside him had an unusual loyalty.

That loyalty bordered on madness, and he was secretly worried.

The goshawk shook its head, dispelled its sorrows, and shouted: "Forcing the rain, I will rush to kill later, you follow me, where I go, you will go." ”

Forced Rain asked, "Goshawk, have you ever fought with the Tartars?"

Goshawk said: "I have only dealt with those traitors and thieves who surrendered to the Tartars, and this is the first time I have encountered the Tartars." ”

Unlike the goshawk, this is the first time that Qi Yu has really stepped on the battlefield, although his martial arts are high, but when he saw the Mongolian army approaching this side in the dark, it seemed to be looking at the waves, looking at the dark clouds, and the feeling of awe arose spontaneously.

He couldn't help but think to himself: "In front of the power of heaven and earth, no matter how high my martial arts training, what is the use?"

Chang Hai was dressed in armor, rode over, looked at his comrades beside him, and shouted: "Today's battle, not only to avenge the master, but also to make the Tartars lead us to teach us, if we can win, we can recapture Guazhou and open the way to the outside." ”

Guazhou is the outward entrance of Yangzhou City, and as soon as this road opens, the situation will be greatly improved. However, Ah Shu, the leader of the Mongolian army, was also a famous general, guessed the meaning of Li Tingzhi's surprise attack, and sent heavy troops to garrison the front. There is no way out for both sides, only a desperate battle.

Qi Yu remembered the bad news of Master Zhou Xingtian, gritted his teeth in an instant, driven by anger, swept away the cowardice in his heart, he clenched the long sword in his hand, and thought: "Master sacrificed his life for the country, and died without complaint." Naturally, I want to emulate his righteousness, and would rather die in battle than retreat. ”

Suddenly there was a thunderous sound in front, and in the sound of horns, the Mongols arrows rained down, and the iron horsemen rushed towards the Song army under the cover of archers.

Goshawk drew a spear and listened to the drums of war, laughed and said, "It's time!"

Forcing the rain, I saw the goshawk urging the horse to gallop, and I didn't have time to think about it, so I chased the goshawk and rushed out. After a while, the two armies collided, fighting like madness, the screams were endless, and the resonance rumbled, as if reaching the bottom of the heart.

A Mongolian cavalryman with a machete in his hand slashed down at the goshawk, and the goshawk's spear stabbed into the gap between the man's helmet and the iron armor, and the man opened his mouth and seemed to shout, but the surroundings were so noisy that the rain did not hear anything, only to see the goshawk's spear head drawn, stained with a trace of blood-red ribbon-like blood.

The man fell headlong, and the goshawk galloped by, and in a short time killed another man.

Forced Yu did not dare to separate from the goshawk, urged the horse to catch up, suddenly, he saw a Mongolian cavalry rushing not far away, the man held a crossbow, shot an arrow at him, Forced Yu was taken aback, dodged the arrow, and stabbed at the man with a sword, his move was very fast, the direction was ingenious, and he was about to stab the man's body, the man suddenly threw the crossbow at the body.

Qi Yu had already taken precautions, blocked the crossbow, and was about to change his move, but he was so delayed for a moment, and several enemies were killed at the same time. For a while, the blades slashed at him from all directions, forcing the rain to have a blank mind, wanting to jump off the horse, but hesitating, in a trance, swinging his sword to resist, only to hear the sound of clanging, he blocked the enemy, who knew that he suddenly received a heavy hammer in the back.

Although he had internal strength to protect his body, the enemy's attack was sudden, and he was not able to prepare for it, his eyes were dark, his vest was in severe pain, and he fell on the back of his horse.

At that moment, the goshawk came out of nowhere, jumped behind him, took the reins in his hand, and shouted, causing the horse to gallop wildly, and then shook off the besieging enemy. Forced Yu looked back, only to see that the goshawk had knocked the two off the horse's back in a short moment, and I didn't know whether they were dead or alive.

In the midst of the surrounding shocks, the goshawk shouted: "My little rain brother, you can't stand still stupidly, if the enemy is holding a sword, this time it will kill you!"

Forced Rain's body trembled, and said, "I have not yet overcome the enemy." ”

The goshawk maneuvered the horse around and came to a calm and safe place, and the devil knew how he could find such a place on the ground meat battlefield, and he shouted: "If you miss a move, move immediately, and you are not wearing iron armor, so you cannot entangle with the enemy." ”

Forcing Yu Yungong to heal his wounds, he found that although he was in pain, the injuries were not serious, and he said, "I know." Don't protect me, I can take care of myself. ”

The goshawk laughed, "I knew you could be trusted!" He stepped on the horse's back and jumped to the side, but the enemy on the side was caught off guard and stabbed by him, and the goshawk pushed the man down and said, "Follow me this time, don't get lost again." ”

Forced rain looked at the back of the goshawk, although in the midst of thousands of troops, his heart was still stable and peaceful.

The goshawk charged forward, the route was strange, and the rain could only barely keep up, but he faintly felt that whenever the goshawk chose the road, the enemies on the road were all entangled by friendly forces, and there was no time to take care of the two of them.

If the enemy is looking for him, first, the goshawk is strong in martial arts, second, he slips away very fast, and third, the friendly army is attacking in a hurry, although the enemy is angry, but they can't help him at all.

Forcing the rain to learn the appearance of the goshawk, he performed a wonderful swordsmanship, constantly swinging his sword to the left and right, and killing the enemy. The two of them rushed for an unknown amount of time, but they actually broke out of a large gap in the enemy formation, and more and more friendly troops followed them, and soon became unstoppable.

Goshawk took a deep breath and shouted, "I've seen the Tartar boss!

When everyone heard this, they were all excited, and the goshawk did not hesitate to rush to one side, which is strange to say, the enemy army there seemed to be dense and well-guarded, but when the goshawk came to the front, they had already run elsewhere, although everyone went around in a circle, but the road was smooth, invincible, and the Tartar formation was scattered.

The Tartar wanted to turn his head against them, but the goshawk was already running away.

When he forced Yudeng, he realized that the path that the goshawk was looking for was a flaw in the enemy's ranks.

Just like a master in martial arts, no matter how subtle the moves, once someone finds out the routine, you can find a flaw, and once the flaw is exposed, it is the time to lose. It is a grandmaster against the enemy, if you can't win in a few moves, you have to slow down the moves, so that the moves are strict and unpredictable, so that the enemy can not take advantage of them.

Goshawk's talent is amazing, he can find the flaws of the enemy army in thousands of troops, when the enemy is relaxed, when to be tight, when to retreat, when to attack, the mind of the enemy's commander, the morale of the enemy in front of him, all these complex causes and effects, goshawk knows at a glance, without hesitation.

Just like Xiang Yu, the overlord of Chu in the past, led the army, I don't see how outstanding his strategy is and how exquisite his formation is, but he can always win more with less, run rampant, and beat the world's heroes, even if the number of enemies is ten times that of him, when he rushes to kill, he is often defeated.

On the battlefield, once the momentum rises, the tide of battle is irreversible. The goshawk grasped the trend, plucked up momentum, and with a little luck, the situation turned upside down.

Qi Yu thinks: Goshawk is such a person. He is not a strategist, not a strategist who wins thousands of miles, not a master who fights alone, but a wolf who belongs to the battlefield and an eagle soaring in the red sky. In the midst of the battlefield, the rest of the people are like lambs, and he is the beast of the flood.

By this moment, however, they had penetrated into the rear of the enemy, and with each step forward, the garrison became doubly fortified, and the Mongol vanguards had come to their senses, turned back, and pounced on the goshawks. Goshawk smiled: "It's time to withdraw!" The horse listened to his command, brushed past the enemy's defensive position, rushed forward for a while, turned a corner, and inexplicably, everyone came to the flank of the enemy's formation.

Chang Hai checked the situation and said happily: "The momentum of the flanking attack has been achieved! First destroy the enemy's right formation!"

Those who returned to defend the enemy army were caught off guard, there was Weishan in front, there was Chang Hai in the back, both sides surged up at the same time, at this time they had the upper hand, everyone killed red-eyed, Weishan held a heavy hammer, opened the bow left and right, and smashed the enemy's head individually, and Chang Haishen was haunted, his body was ercareless, and the enemy was injured with his strong palm force. Goshawks, forced rain, light shirts, and iron salt also kept attacking. Where could the Mongols resist? In an instant, those who were killed lost their armor and suffered heavy casualties.

Seeing that the situation was not good, the Mongol lord sounded his horn and withdrew towards the city. The Song army wanted to chase after them, but the goshawk shouted: "Don't chase, close to the city wall, they have artillery!"

Before the words fell, a cannonball whistled and exploded not far ahead, and the generals were frightened for a moment, lost their fighters, and could no longer catch up.

The sound of Mingjin retreating troops came from the rear, and the Song army defeated the Mongol army with more and less, which was a rare victory in recent years. However, General Jiang Cai was afraid that everyone would be impatient to chase and fall into an ambush by the enemy, so he ordered everyone to return to the camp and consider the long term.

The goshawk rode back to the camp on horseback, forced the rain to catch up and said, "Brother goshawk, you are really amazing, as long as we follow you, no matter how powerful the enemy is, we are not afraid." ”

The goshawk closed its eyes and mumbled, noncommittal.

Seeing him like this, Qi Yu felt strange in his heart and asked, "Brother Goshawk, what's wrong with you?"

The goshawk smiled at the corner of his mouth and said, "It's not enough." ”

Qi Yuqi said: "What is not enough?"

Goshawk said: "You are not good enough. You should say: Brother Goshawk is wise and martial, invincible in the world, and he is really the first general in the past, that is, Bai Qi is alive, Xiang Yu is reborn, I am afraid of it."

Weishan caught up, hugged the goshawk, kissed him on the face, and shouted: "What a good boy, it is worthy of my cultivation senior brother." The goshawk exclaimed, "It stinks, it stinks!"

Wei Shan laughed and said, "Good boy, do you think your senior brother stinks?" Senior brother didn't think you were a bedwetting kid back then!"

Goshawk said angrily: "No matter how stinky I am, can I compare to my little niece? This girl peed on my face a month ago!"

When Wei Shan heard this, his face was gloomy, and he immediately changed the topic and said: "You have made a great contribution this time! Let's beat the Tartars to the point of crying father and mother, if we win such ten more battles, not only will Yangzhou City be as stable as Mount Tai, and it will not be a fool's dream to recapture Xiangyang and Fancheng." ”

The three of them walked into the camp, and saw Jiang Cai standing in front of a large table with a map on the table, and when they saw them coming in, they smiled bitterly, shook their heads and said: "You are so brave and brave, the number of enemies is three times that of our army, but we have beaten them and fled. Alas, it's a pity that the Mongol Tatars are cunning and sent troops to attack Yangzhou, and although we won, we can only withdraw our troops. ”

Weishan was shocked and hurriedly said: "My lord, Yangzhou City is garrisoned by Lord Li, and the Tartars will not be able to attack it for a while." Let's just go all out and take Guazhou down. ”

Jiang Cai shook his head and said: "Although we win, if the Tartars retreat into the city, we don't have siege firearms, and we can't fight for a long time, and then we will fall into a stalemate, once surrounded by the enemy, then we won't be able to return to Yangzhou. ”

Weishan sighed, knowing that what Jiang Cai said was true, although he was disappointed, he was helpless.

Chang Hai pondered for a moment and said: "What the adults said is right, our sneak attack failed this time, we can't advance or retreat, and being able to retreat with our whole body is already the best ending." ”

Jiang Cai suddenly showed frustration and said: "It's difficult, it's difficult, it's difficult, it's too bad, the situation is too bad, the Tartars are strong, and I don't know how long we can hold out in Yangzhou?"
