"fall!"
In the chaotic wilderness, a Mongolian heavy cavalry came to attack the horse. Two Song soldiers hooked the horse's legs with hooks and sickles. The horse screamed and fell to the ground. The Song army sword and shield hand caught up and struck hard with the sword, causing it to fall to the ground. The heavy cavalry's iron helmet was dented and sluggish. Then another heavy knife hit the heavy cavalry's face, and the sound of broken teeth could be heard.
A thunderbolt hit the ground and exploded. A Mongolian heavy cavalry man and his horse fell to the ground. The Song Army cavalry behind them caught up and trampled the fallen heavy cavalry into a pile of meat.
Several heavy cavalrymen collided with the Song army's spear formation. Several Song soldiers were killed by flying sticks. The surrounding Song soldiers fell on them one after another. The war horses were knocked down by hooks and sickles, and the knights on the horses were killed one by one without mercy.
In the field, the remaining Mongolian heavy cavalry were killed one by one by the Song soldiers. The Song army moved forward, their crossbows fired, and the whole sky was full of flying arrows. The Mongolian troops who had no time to escape from the battlefield fell down one after another, and the rest fled in all directions. , the Song army's infantry and cavalry sacrificed their lives to pursue and kill them. It was bloody and tragic, and the thick smell of blood filled the battlefield.
All the Mongolian heavy cavalry were killed, and the light cavalry behind also suffered many casualties. As the golden sound of withdrawing troops sounded, all the Mongolian light cavalry turned their horses and hurriedly withdrew to the north. Under the ferocious artillery fire of the Song army, they were in a mess and without any structure. They huddled together from time to time. From time to time, some people fell off their horses and were trampled into pulp by the chaotic horse hooves.
"Puffy!"
The Song army's formation rolled forward, and the Mongolian army evacuated hastily. In the Chinese army's formation, Zhao Hong was regretting the Mongolian army's escape. The continuous sound of artillery sounded from the hills to the north, and countless shells hit the Mongolian army's formation, shocking Pillars of thunder and smoke rose from the sky, and the fleeing Mongolian troops fell off their horses one by one.
Zhao Hong's eyes widened and he couldn't help but feel refreshed.
"Your Majesty, this is the direction of Xi'an Mountain! It's our Song Dynasty's ambush!"
Xu Sheng pointed to the high ground ahead, his face full of excitement.
Zhao Hong picked up his telescope and watched. Sure enough, the highlands of Xi'an Mountain were filled with gunpowder smoke, and the characters "LV", "Ma", "Zhang", etc. were clearly visible on the various flags of the Song Dynasty flying in the air.
"I'll go! It's indeed Lu Wende!"
A smile appeared on Zhao Hong's face unconsciously, and he felt greatly comforted.
Whether it is running a country or maintaining peace, it all depends on whether the people are properly employed. Talent is the basis of everything. Even if he doesn't have a chariot to fight in person, I believe Cao Youwen and Lu Wende will not let him down.
Talent is always the foundation of a strong nation! This was far more exciting to him than winning a war!
"Send orders to all the troops to pursue the Tatar army! Afterwards, I will discuss the merits and reward the three armies!"
Zhao Hong issued the military order, and the morale of the Song army soared. They shouted and chased northward like wind and lingering clouds.
On the hills for several miles along the official road along the river, the Song army's arrows roared, artillery roared, and thunderstorms hit the retreating Mongolian army.
Lv Wende of Xihe Prefecture, Ma Zhong of Tianshui Army, and Zhangdu of Chengzhou, four thousand Song troops took advantage of the terrain of Xi'an Mountain to actually organize a vertical line of hills from southeast to northwest to ambush the troops retreating to the northwest. Mongolian army.
"Rolling Stone!"
Lu Wende shouted loudly, and countless rolling stones rolled down the hills, knocking over countless Mongolian knights who could not escape, and also blocked the official road. The mountain road hundreds of meters long was filled with stones, so that the Mongolian cavalry had to avoid it. The mountain road followed the narrow channel on the river beach, which greatly slowed down the retreat of the Mongolian army.
The Mongolian army was blocked for a while and moved slowly. Some horses were overturned by artillery and shot down by arrows. It was even more difficult for the Mongolian army to evacuate. The artillery carriages of the Song Army took the opportunity to follow up. The artillery kept roaring, the Mongolian cavalry suffered heavy casualties, and the entire river was covered with dead bodies. The blood flows into the river, bursts of bright red. Some iron balls and iron pellets flew into the river, splashing and spraying water.
The crossbowmen of the Song Army rushed forward wildly. Their crossbows fired in unison, and their arrows were like locusts. The Mongolian knights were constantly shot and killed by arrows as they fled, and the wounded were also ruthlessly assassinated by the Song Army's spearmen who caught up.
"Go back with me and kill these thieves!"
Seeing the numerous casualties of the Mongolian cavalry under his command, their bodies were bruised and bloody. Everyone was frightened and had no fighting spirit. Subotai's eyes were blood red and his heart was burning with rage.
The Mongolian cavalry that dominated the world were slaughtered wantonly, which was unprecedented and unbearable.
"Subotai, Song Jun's weapons are too powerful! If we don't leave, it will be too late!"
Tali was so frightened that he grabbed Subotai's horse and moved forward with all his strength.
The mountain road is narrow, and they fight with feather arrows and Song Army firearms. The firearms are endless, and there is no room for counterattack and no chance of victory.
With a "ping" sound, a thunderbolt suddenly hit the ground and exploded. Tali covered his face and screamed loudly, and blood surged from between his fingers.
"Tali, what's wrong with you?"
Subotai couldn't help but feel frightened when he saw that half of Tari's face was covered in blood and one of his ears had been cut off in half.
"Subotai, I'm fine. Hurry up and let the troops break out to the north! There are Song army cities to the west. Who knows how many ambushes there are?"
Tali held back the pain and shouted to dissuade. He was very lucky. He only lost an ear but was not fatally injured.
"north?"
Subotai was stunned for a moment, then realized what he was doing and shouted loudly:
"Everyone, break out to the golden realm to the north!"
Qifangguan has been abandoned. Although the Jin army is on the ground to the north, the Jin army does not have the firearms of the Song army, and its defeated generals are not worth mentioning.
Subotai's military order was issued, and the Mongolian troops who had no intention of fighting fled to the north one after another, leaving behind the corpses of men and horses all over the mountains and rivers, which was shocking and the blood stained the river red.
Some Mongolian troops, including men and horses, were squeezed into the river. The Song Army's crossbows and arrows were fired. Countless Mongolian troops were shot down. The river was full of crossbows. The Song Army's spearmen caught up and the lagging Mongolian troops and the wounded were stabbed to death one by one. , there were corpses on the river beach. Some corpses floated on the water and went with the waves, and the river was dyed red.
"Rush over!"
Subotai was furious, galloped his horse, raised his hand and shot an arrow, knocking over a Song soldier who was about to shoot an arrow on the opposite hillside.
The general fought with all his might, and thousands of Mongolian cavalry fired in unison. Their feathered arrows blocked the sky. The Song army on the hillside fell down, and a gap of more than 100 meters appeared. The Mongolian cavalry climbed up the slope one after another, and the Song army had no time to avoid it. They chopped them down and killed them one after another, and finally broke out a bloody path.
"Warriors, kill the enemy with me!"
Subotai shouted wildly and was about to attack the Song army blocking the front line of the hillside with his horse, but Tali grabbed the reins.
"Subotai, the Song army is powerful and the artillery is too fierce. Move quickly!"
Before Tali finished speaking, countless smoking iron lumps fell into the group of Mongolian cavalry that broke through. Violent explosions occurred one after another. Countless Mongolian cavalry were bloody and bloody, and countless people fell off their horses.
Subutai's heart was as sharp as a knife. The Song troops on both sides of the hillside hit hundreds of thunderbolts from the north and south. The Mongolian knights fell on their backs, and there were screams and the wails of war horses everywhere.
"open!"
Subotai raised his whip and was about to whip the tower. The thrilling sound of artillery came from behind, followed by the screams of the Mongolian cavalry and the neighing of the horses. Countless Mongolian cavalry caught up from behind, and the horses The surging force forced the Mongolian army in front to move forward.
Subotai had no choice but to be surrounded by the troops and headed north. He looked back and saw that the Mongolian army was in a mess with thousands of troops. They were being chased and killed by the Song army on the river bank without mercy.
In his sight, Captain Erden, a powerful general in the army, was charging wildly with his horse, and the panic on his face was obvious. The heart-stopping sound of artillery continued, and Erden suddenly fell down with his men and horses. In the thick smoke, he and countless panicked Mongolian cavalry passed through the smoke. Erden never got up again.
Subotai's heart was as hard as iron, he turned his head and rode his horse forward.
Only by quickly breaking away from the Song army's artillery fire can more Mongolian knights escape.
Thousands of cavalry retreated in a mighty manner. The wilderness was filled with surging horses. The sound of horse hooves, the sound of artillery, the sound of fighting, the screams of war horses, and the screams and curses of people filled the entire battlefield.
A group of Mongolian cavalry at the rear turned their horses and charged towards the pursuing Song army. They were brave and fearless, and arrows rained down like rain. The Song army that rushed forward immediately fell to pieces.
"artillery!"
"Crossbowman!"
Roaring sounds came and went, the violent sound of cannons shook the earth, and arrows soared into the sky, filling the sky. Suddenly, blood mist shot out from the Mongolian cavalry formation. Pieces of Mongolian cavalry fell to the ground with bloody bodies, and were trampled by the Mongolian horses that followed.
The artillery fire roared and the smoke filled the air, creating a spectacular sight. The Song army's artillery fired in turns, with solid iron balls and shotguns in an endless stream. Soon, there were not many Mongolian knights left to fight back. The Song army's cavalry rolled past like a whirlwind, sweeping away the remaining Mongolian troops. Knight Devour.
The spearmen and sword and shield men of the Song Army followed up, assisted the crossbowmen, and strangled the unorganized Mongolian army's rangers all over the mountains and plains.
"I'm Han, don't kill me!"
A Mongolian cavalryman was knocked off his horse, his iron helmet fell off, his hair was in a bun, and he howled loudly while holding his injured leg.
"Are you worthy? Why didn't you show mercy when you were killing the people of Song Dynasty?"
The Song army's spears stabbed down one after another, leaving several bloody holes in the Mongolian soldiers' bodies. Their whole bodies twitched and slowly became motionless.
A Mongolian knight fell off his horse. He opened his bow and shot a Song soldier, but was stabbed by two Song soldiers who caught up with him. His body was covered with blood holes. He muttered something and looked up to the sky without any breath.
"Don't kill! Don't kill!"
Countless Mongolian cavalry abandoned their horses and fled towards the mountains and forests. They were constantly shot over and overtaken and assassinated. Some people dropped their weapons and knelt down to beg for mercy, but they were still furiously slashed to death. Some people abandoned their horses and jumped into the river. They were either shot to death by the Song army's crossbowmen, or were washed away by the ruthless river. They were left to their fate whether they lived or died.
There were many Mongolian troops who turned around and charged with the Song army, but because the cavalry formation was sparse and unorganized, no one was spared under the fire of the Song army's firearms and bows and crossbows. However, due to their bravery and fearlessness, they attracted the firepower of the Song army on the hillside, which caused thousands of cavalrymen brought by Subotai to escape the Song army's artillery fire and had a lucky escape.
On the battlefield, there is no right or wrong, there is only bloody killing, and only the complete elimination of the opponent seems to be the best solution.
