Chen Qilin immediately asked the three brothers to touch up.
Zhao Bingyan asked everyone to follow him, and the remaining people climbed up towards the cliff gate in the direction where Chen Qilin and others were touching the whistle.
After Chen Qilin killed two sentries one after another, Zhao Bingyan discovered that the Yuan army was too vigilant and there were no hidden sentries.
Perhaps this was the reason why the Yuan army believed that it was impossible for the Song army to climb up the cliff and seize the fort.
Zhao Bingyan was extremely nervous and kept sounding the alarm for everyone. However, the climb all the way to a position thirty meters away from the fort was unobstructed and went very smoothly.
He quickly found a big rock and hid it behind him, took out a dozen wooden-handled hand grenades from the extra-dimensional space and put them in his shoulder bag before returning to the middle of the team. He asked Zhang Qi and Chen Qilin to lead the team to continue climbing. Once exposed, he would immediately lie down. Don't move, wait until you hear ten explosions before charging.
Zhao Bingyan followed the team and took out grenades and prepared to drop them.
The death squads were extremely close to the Yuan army's fort position, and each one of them boldly moved forward. Suddenly, the Yuan army above them shouted: "Who is it? Password."
Everyone immediately fell down, and the Yuan army sentry shouted: "The enemy is attacking, the enemy is attacking."
Zhao Bingyan immediately turned on the fire and threw the grenades one after another towards the Yuan army's position. Boom boom boom, a series of explosions sounded.
After he finished shaking off the grenade | pulled out the big knife and climbed up, he rushed into the Yuan army's position without killing a few enemies and the battle was over. The brothers shouted: "Happy, happy."
Unfortunately, the Yuan army guarding the cannons saw that the situation was over and used explosives to blow up all the cannons and trebuchets. There were still a lot of cannonballs scattered on the ground, but without the cannons, the cannonballs were useless.
It was almost dawn. When Zhao Bingyan saw that Wang Bao had come up with reinforcements, he said: "The task of defense will be left to you. There are still 300 grenades here. Learn how to use them after repairing the fortifications."
He briefly explained how to use grenades and then led the death squad down the mountain.
At this time, Zhang Hongfan, the commander-in-chief of the Yuan Army, had received reports of fighting on the west bank of Yamen, and this guy was heartbroken.
The Yuan army prepared meals at the third watch and prepared for war at the fourth watch. They had already had breakfast and lined up, ready to weigh anchor and march.
A battle suddenly broke out at Yamen. What was the Song army doing?
His general Adou told him that the generals on the shore observed a dazzling red light suddenly appearing on the fort, followed by a series of explosions. The current situation was unknown.
The situation was unclear, and he certainly could not attack rashly. Zhang Hongfan was not reckless enough to lose his mind. He had to wait for further news.
However, the sea has already risen, and the big ship has to follow the rising tide to rush into the cliff mountain to gain convenience. If we attack after the high tide time, it will be laborious and time-consuming. The soldiers will not be motivated before they reach the battlefield, so it is still a shame.
At this moment, this guy is the most anxious.
Zhang Hongfan was thinking that even if the fort was captured by the Song army, the Mongolian soldiers inside would supervise the destruction of their returning artillery. The north side of the cliff gate is steep and it would be impossible for the Song army to move their trebuchets up in a short time.
This means that even if the Song army occupied the fort, it would be useless. At most, they would throw two stones down to scare people, which would not affect him in the slightest from launching an attack.
This is indeed the case. While this guy was still struggling, the Yuan army who fled back reported that the fort was attacked, the cannon was destroyed, and the Song army occupied the fort.
Zhang Hongfan immediately ordered an attack after receiving the report that the cannon had been destroyed. After making arrangements, he casually ordered all the fort defenders who had escaped to be beheaded and sacrificed to the flag, in order to increase the power of the army.
Immortal Banban, the marshal is so majestic. With just one word, hundreds of soldiers who survived the disaster lost their food.
However, Zhang Hongfan's hesitation gave Zhao Bingyan safe time to quickly return to the camp.
He walked all the way back, and his soldiers seized advantageous terrain along the road and opened a safe passage for him. It was not until he got on the boat and returned to camp that Zhang Hongfan's army entered the entrance of the cliff valley.
This speed is too slow.
Zhao Bingyan changed his clothes and appeared in front of the soldiers. The soldiers and civilians in the water village already knew the result of Yamen's victory, and they all rekindled their hope of survival.
General Zhang Shijie was overjoyed when he heard the news. He shouted that the Guards were powerful and asked Empress Dowager Yang to commend Zhao Bingyan for his achievements. Wen Tianxiang happily wrote the six characters "Great Song Guards" on a large flag of the Song Dynasty and gave it to Zhao Bingyan as a military flag.
Zhao Bingyan asked his generals to raise the flag for him, so that the soldiers and people of the Song Dynasty could see that the Guards were sworn to protect the safety of the people in the water village.
The enemy and us on the southern front quickly engaged in battle, but the Song army broke out with unprecedented combat effectiveness and continuously destroyed enemy ships approaching the water village. The Yuan army had no chance to climb the city wall.
Adou, the general of the Yuan army, had been attacking for a long time with no results. He felt very strange. How could the Song army become more energetic overnight?
He believed that after the Song army occupied the fort, it eliminated the Yuan army on the west bank of Yashan Mountain and seized the water source on the mountain. The Song army was energetic after having fresh water.
Commander-in-Chief Zhang Hongfan shook his head and said: "It's impossible. He didn't recover his strength so quickly. That's because the Song Army had hope of survival after seizing the fort, and its morale returned. Youdao has failed again and again, and has been exhausted three times. . If we continue to fight the Song Army, our strength will weaken. How strong can a patient who has been without fresh water for several days be?
What if we grab fresh water? Could it be that if you just drink fresh water, your strength will increase immediately?
Attack, attack, attack for me. "
The Yuan army charged forward one after another. A large number of buildings and ships approached the water wall. The battleships rushed to the bottom of the city and fought with the Song army's defenders. The heavy hammers on the city wall knocked the light boats and battleships away. The ghosts and wolves howled and the shouts of killing shook the sky above the cliffs. .
Zhao Bingyan put on his own body armor and a lightweight bulletproof helmet, and left the originally defended area to Zhang Qi to defend. He carried the 800 million bar and wandered around the Guards' defense area to kill the enemy ships in the distance who were firing arrows. Beat them whenever they show up, and kill them with gunshots.
Seeing that the city wall was stable, deputy general Sun Huchen sent a fighting ship to drive out the enemy ships.
Upon seeing this, he immediately called everyone back to conserve their strength to meet the enemy's greater attack.
The eastern section under Zhang Shijie's personal command was in danger. Two large vehicles and ships of the Yuan army directly hit the city wall and fought. Soldiers from both sides were already fighting together.
Seeing that the Yuan army actually climbed up the city wall and attacked the rows of boats on both sides, Zhang Shijie panicked and mobilized the soldiers in front of the palace, Su Liuyi, who was guarding the north entrance, for reinforcements.
As soon as Su Liuyi's men and horses moved, Li Heng's troops of the Yuan army guarding the north immediately launched an attack. The Yuan army attacked from two sides and launched a fierce bombardment with returning artillery. The Song army's water stronghold was immediately in danger, and warships were constantly being captured by the Yuan army.
Zhao Bingyan heard the fierce shouting of killing in the eastern section and personally led 300 troops to rush to the rescue. However, the distance between his place and the dangerous area was too far. By the time he arrived at the battlefield, the Yuan army had already cut off the iron chain, seized the row of boats and left.
The two sides fought a truce at one o'clock in the afternoon. The eastern section of the city wall on the southern line commanded by Zhang Shijie was captured by the Yuan army with twelve warships. The morale of the Song army in the water village dropped to freezing point.
As a general, Zhang Shijie suffered a major setback and was in a very depressed mood.
His subordinates attributed the failure to the fact that Zhao Bingyan, the commander of the Guards, was hiding his secrets and did not take out plum candy and self-heating rice in time to share with everyone, so that the soldiers on the commander's side lost their combat effectiveness.
Everyone gave him an idea. Since the Guards had food and drink and were strong, let them bear more burdens.
Zhang Shijie is not like Zhao Bingyan, who equates young people with soldiers, and even equates common people with soldiers to form a rope to defend against the enemy.
He always believed that the army was the army and the people were the people. Without Zhao Bingyan's army and the people being united, the soldiers in his hands would die one by one, and his combat effectiveness would naturally become weaker and weaker.
He was originally dissatisfied with Zhao Bingyan, a rising star. After listening to the general's idea, he summoned Zhao Bingyan to the handsome ship, personally brewed a cup of tea and sent it to Zhao Bingyan with a smile, making Zhao Bingyan feel flattered.
Zhang Shijie said seriously: "I have decided to break out tonight. The water stronghold will be left to General Zhao at low tide at the latest. We must delay the Yuan army for one day to buy time for the imperial court to break out."
Zhao Bingyan understood that when the tide ebbs, the sea water flows out, and the warship just takes advantage of the current to rush out.
However, Zhang Shijie asked him to stay and defend the stronghold, but the main force had fled, so how could he defend it?
This is asking him to die.
He began to lament that the world is as dark as crows, and where there are people there are rivers and lakes.
Zhao Bingyan remained silent, nodded calmly and drank tea.
Zhang Shijie was shocked. The young general in front of him did not look like a newly promoted commander. He looked like a battlefield veteran who had commanded thousands of troops.
