The captain who was favored by Li Ting was Zhe Die'er who led the troops stationed at the south camp gate.
Zhedie'er is the powerful leader of the Yiqilesi tribe, and the strength he holds in his hands is stronger than that of the nominal leader of the Yiqilesi tribe, the Prince Consort Bitu.
When Genghis Khan first divided the tribes into tribes and established a thousand-household system, Zhedieer and the Batu Prince Consort were in the same thousand households. They were often able to issue orders, and their authority was superior to that of the Batu Prince Consort. Later, Genghis Khan established 95,000 households, and the entire Yiqilesi tribe was split into four, and only then did Zhedieer fall under Tuo Lei's command.
After the Battle of Thirteen Wings, Zhedieer led his troops to participate in five of the nine battles in which Genghis Khan unified the grasslands. He was a veteran with extremely rich actual combat experience.
After that, Genghis Khan sent troops to attack Jin twice, but Zhedieer did not participate. The main reason is that when the fourth prince drags thunder to the Ulusi Xinjian, there are always all kinds of trivial matters related to the distribution of tribesmen, livestock, and pastures. As a veteran, Zhe Dieer has to help the fourth prince.
However, for the Mongols, this is really worthless behavior.
All difficulties are ultimately caused by people's greed and insufficient distribution of benefits. So, as long as we fight hard, plunder the land of the Central Plains, and rob the Jurchens, Khitans, and Han people of money and materials, won't we have everything?
This year Genghis Khan attacked the Kingdom of Jin for the third time, and Zhe Dieer came with Tuo Lei.
When he came to the Central Plains to fight, he realized that things were not as easy as imagined.
There are too many cities in the Central Plains and too many people. The harvest of plundering is indeed rich, but after the army penetrates deep into the interior of the Jin Dynasty, even if every battle ends in victory, it will inevitably become exhausted after a few months.
The Mongolian army began to tire, but among the Jin people there were some who were brave and good at fighting, and they began to cause trouble to the Mongolian army. Some cities are not large in scale, but they cannot be attacked in every possible way, often resulting in unexpected large-scale casualties.
During the fight last night, because the fourth prince gave a strict order, Zhe Die'er personally led the men to charge and storm the pier next to the city gate.
In the end, he took the lead in breaking through the Jin army's defense and brought victory to this two-day siege battle. But he was hit in the shoulder by a heavy arrow and was seriously injured.
At that time, he felt murderous intent and did not feel any pain. He only felt that he had been hit by something. Later, he found that the huge bleeding mouth was bleeding, and the pale bones underneath were visible. If the arrow's direction changed even slightly, his arm would be useless.
Zhe Die'er's men also suffered a lot of casualties.
At least two of the most proficient hundreds of households have lost their combat effectiveness. If they want to rebuild, it will not be possible in three to five years. No less than one hundred and eighty of the young men whom Zhe Die'er was optimistic about died in the battle.
The fourth prince naturally saw this situation. So he ordered all the troops to withdraw and go out to intercept the main force of the navy, and specifically asked Zhe Die'er's troops to stay in the camp... This was obviously to give Zhe Die'er time to plunder alone, and it was a secret compensation given by the fourth prince. .
For this, Zhe Dieer was very grateful to the fourth prince.
The fourth prince is smart, gentle, and considerate towards others. No wonder the Great Khan likes him so much. Zhedie'er was also very willing to help Tuo Lei, making him, like his brothers, an invincible commander on the battlefield and a hero praised by the Mongols.
But the problem is...
What's going on here? Why did heavy armored cavalry like wolves and tigers suddenly appear in the fort behind the camp?
After Zhe Die'er was injured, he applied herbs specially provided by the shaman on his shoulder. The drug suppresses pain and also slows down thinking. So at this moment, Zhe Die'er was a little groggy.
While his subordinates were all shouting wildly and shooting arrows indiscriminately, he was repeatedly wondering, where did the enemy come from?
One of his capable subordinates shouted repeatedly: "Get out quickly! Get out! Release arrows and walk out!"
But Zhe Die'er suddenly grabbed his subordinate's shoulders: "You can't retreat!"
"What?"
Zhe Dieer opened his mouth.
He wanted to say that if he retreated from the camp, the battle of the past two days would be in vain. So many people died fighting for this fortress, but they gave up so easily in their own hands. What would the fourth prince Tuo Lei think? What would the other captains think?
He also wanted to say that the fourth prince, leading the main force, was about to block the main force of the navy along the glue line. If we cannot control Haicang Town at this time, will the fourth prince be attacked from both sides? Will the fourth prince be unhappy?
He also wanted to say that the entire Qianhu household had been scattered throughout the camp, and hundreds of cavalry were divided into small teams, chasing and killing them everywhere. If they easily exited the camp, would they abandon their companions?
But there was no time to express these thoughts.
From the frightened eyes of his subordinates, Zhe Die'er saw the armored cavalry rushing over like a torrent, charging straight towards them with an unstoppable attitude. He turned around and saw steel, spears like a dense forest, armor like an iron wall, and tall horses sprinting like monsters.
The Mongols who gathered from all over the country, without Zhe Die'er's command, each drew their bows and nocked arrows, and kept firing. Then the sky became brighter and darker, and each time it dimmed, hundreds of arrows flew into the sky and then fell down.
But the torrent surged forward, seemingly unimpeded.
There were two captains of ten, seeing that the situation was not going well, they shouted sternly and led their men forward to stop them.
Both of them are among the few warriors under Zhe Die'er. They have accomplished many feats by virtue of their skillful equestrianism and killing skills.
But these armored cavalry all wore thick armor, iron helmets and iron collars, even the greaves and shoulder pads were all made of iron. Each of them is like an iron can, with airtight protection. The Mongolian knight's scimitar was broken in one blow in front of this kind of iron armor. Only heavy weapons such as hammers and iron bars could be effective.
When the two armies clashed, where would they have time to switch weapons?
They are like small waves in the ocean tide. They make a little ripple and then disappear without a trace, never to be seen again.
Closer, closer.
what to do? How to deal with them?
The arrows can't be stopped when they fall, and even if they fight with swords and guns, they can't stop them. As they got closer and closer, Zhe Dieer suddenly felt the long-lost fear. The Mongolian riders around him were also shouting wildly, as if this was the only way to dispel the fear in their hearts.
The Mongols are a nation on horseback. They grew up on the grasslands and began to learn to ride horses when they could walk. Before they could learn to speak, they began to follow their elder brothers on horseback to hunt. Because of this, they have a special feeling for the power of cavalry.
They could feel how powerful the torrent in front of them was.
This power was beyond their ability to resist... There was no point in resisting. Everything that stands in the way of this torrent will be torn to pieces in an instant!
Zhe Die'er shouted wildly: "Come forward to meet us!"
Contrary to the roars of the Mongols, the Tiefutu knights became quiet as the cavalry approached the camp gate.
There is no need to shout anything, you can’t hear clearly even if you shout.
The sounds of armor leaves clashing, iron hooves hitting the ground, and the breathing of humans and horses filled my ears like a roar. Other than that, only the sharp sound of the bone whistle kept ringing in Li Ting's ears.
This is to urge the front cavalry to charge faster and crush the enemy in front of them.
Li Ting leveled the spear he was holding at an angle, and then the Tiefutu cavalry running alongside him also leveled their spears, causing a wall of sharp blades shining with cold light to appear in front of the horse.
Li Ting felt that his mouth was a little dry. He swallowed and tried to sit more firmly on the horse.
Li Erlang of Zhongdu boasted about himself every day, claiming to be the number one brave general of the Ding Navy. In fact, Li Ting knew in his heart that when it came to his martial arts foundation, a character like himself, who was born as a local ruffian, had learned a lot of showmanship. In terms of real kung fu, he was slightly inferior to those fierce men who had been in the army for generations.
Fortunately, the effect of Tiefutu's attack has little to do with personal martial arts.
The power of the armored cavalry depends on the overall assault. Each knight is just the simplest part in the iron pagoda queue. What he has to do is also very simple: charge with his horse and attack the enemy in front of him. , that’s all.
The war horse's hooves flew and neighed repeatedly.
The next moment, the two armies collided, and they were knocked upside down. Countless gun barrels broke, countless blades flew apart, and people and horses were hit by the huge impact and flew into the air.
Li Ting, together with the entire cavalry team, rushed into the Mongolian queue. His eyes were filled with the ferocious faces of Mongolians for an instant, and then suddenly became sparse. He saw the Mongolian cavalry being pushed through a huge gap by the Tiefutu, and saw his own horses trampling over the dead and seriously wounded who fell to the ground, as well as the lightly wounded who were rolling all over the ground and wailing.
He heard the sound of weapons clashing with each other, the sound of horses clashing with each other, and the voices of officers or leaders at various levels shouting orders one after another.
As the commander-in-chief, Li Ting was too lazy to issue orders. He was wearing bright armor and riding a tall horse. Every soldier could see him. As long as he is charging, all the soldiers will follow him... Just charge as much as you can!
The spear in Li Ting's hand stabbed repeatedly and finally snapped.
Ignoring the severe pain of the tiger's mouth opening, he smoothly pulled out the long knife from the side of the saddle and slashed left and right. Two Mongolians were struck in the arms by him, and their severed arms flew high into the air, with blood spurting out wildly. There was also a person who resisted his execution, and then the two horses were in the wrong stirrup and could no longer care about them.
Li Ting continued to move forward.
He found it, the Mongolian captain!
He clamped the horse with all his strength with both legs and urged the horse to sprint. He covered his face with his hands in the middle and deflected several arrows flying from an angle.
The sword flashed.
The skin on Zhedie'er's neck was cut open by a thick and sharp knife, and blood burst out suddenly. The blade continued to penetrate deeper, cutting through muscles, blood vessels, and tendons, and was finally slightly blocked at the bones.
But the power of Li Ting's arms and the power of the horse's sprint were all exerted on the bones at this time, so the gray-white bones immediately shattered, and the blade continued to push forward, cutting through the muscles, blood vessels, tendons and skin behind the bones.
The beard-bearded head of thousands of households flew up and glared at Li Ting as if full of despair and anger.
