The Mongolian army was defeated in the middle, and the Mongolian army that gritted its teeth and persisted felt a sigh of relief. The Mongolian army in various parts of the battlefield rushed to flee.
Subotai, who was rushing to attack Zhao Tai, looked at the fleeing Mongolian army with horrified eyes. When he saw Wanyan Chenghu rushing directly to rescue Zhao Tai, his face was filled with horror.
"Marshal Du, we are defeated, run away!" Seeing this, the generals around him couldn't help but pick up Subotai, drag him away from the battlefield, and push him onto the horse.
Subotai looked lonely, sighed, pulled the reins of the horse, and did not want to say another word, "Retreat!"
Under the banner of the Qi Army, Zhao Hu saw the scene on the battlefield and was filled with ecstasy, "Your Majesty, Mongolia has been defeated!"
Zhao Tai swung his sword to block an arrow, and looked intently, only to see the fleeing Mongolian army and the pursuing Qi soldiers all over the field.
"Hahaha~" Zhao Tai kept laughing wildly until he was injured by the arrow, then coughed twice, and finally brandished his sword and roared, "The whole army is pursuing us!"
The war drums of the Qi army's central army beat, and the signal of attack resounded through the wilderness. The Qi army on the battlefield was inspired and launched a vigorous pursuit of the Mongolian army.
Damn Mongols, why don't you fight again and fight against the grandfathers again!
The Qi army roared angrily, but the Mongolian army, which was routed like a mountain, fled in panic.
The Mongolian cavalry was fast. They roared to the north of Dong'an City. Without any hesitation, they rushed directly into the river and waded to escape.
At this time, Qi general Lu Wenxin led a small boat to rush down. The Qi navy stood on the boat and fired arrows to kill the defeated Mongolian troops who were forcibly crossing.
No one resisted the Mongolian cavalry, just like a herd of horses migrating across the river, allowing the crocodiles in the river to attack them.
The Qi army's navy fired continuously on the small boats. The Mongolian cavalry who forcibly crossed were constantly shot and fell into the river, and then were washed away by the river.
】
The Mongolian cavalry has always been at an advantage during the battle. When they retreated, they still had a relatively complete structure across the river. The Mongolian infantry was completely disrupted by the Qi army. They fought for the longest time and were the most exhausted. They could not escape the pursuit of the Qi army. Either he was overtaken by the Qi army and cut down from behind, or he was driven into the river and drowned from exhaustion.
Wokuotai was unwilling to admit defeat, but his 100,000-strong army was indeed defeated by the Qi army.
In this battle, Zhao Tai had no new tactics. The Qi army defeated the Mongolian army with head-on confrontation and tenacious will.
This made Wo Kuotai unable to let go and couldn't find a reason to comfort himself. He was completely depressed by Zhao Tai.
At this time, the Mongolian army was defeated. Regardless of casualties and the obstruction of the Qi army, they swarmed across the river and were shot to death by the Qi army. Countless people were drowned in the river.
The Mongolian troops who had escaped across the river were frightened. They did not dare to stay on the north bank, so all the troops scrambled to flee north. Even Wokuotai tried to gather the defeated troops, but he could only gather a thousand men.
At this time, night fell. After the Mongolian cavalry retreated, the Wuxian in the west used infantry to pursue the cavalry and inserted it into the north of Dong'an City. The Tiger Cavalry bypassed the city from the east and gathered their pockets together with the Wuxian.
Soon the Qi army blocked the Mongolian infantry who could not escape in time and blocked the beach of Nanyishui. The Mongolian army, unable to escape, put up feeble resistance under the attack of the Qi army.
The Qi army's horse troops charged back and forth, strangling them with their horses. The Qi army's infantry advanced like a wall, cutting off the defeated troops with horizontal knives and spears. The red-eyed Qi army did not hold back, until there was no standing Mongolian army on the battlefield.
In the middle of the night, the battlefield finally calmed down. Except for a few who became prisoners, all the Mongolian troops on the south bank of the Nanyishui River were killed by the Qi army.
In the dark night, the Qi army lit a bonfire among the piles of corpses. Zhao Tai, who was hastily bandaging, rode through the battlefield and looked at the corpses at his feet, feeling both excited and desolate.
Suddenly, cheers sounded from all over the battlefield.
The soldiers of the Qi army, who had fought hard for half a day and won this victory at the cost of more than 30,000 deaths, shouted wildly.
They roared, venting the joy and sorrow in their hearts. The soldiers held their heads and cried, celebrating the hard-won victory.
This battle was the toughest battle fought by the Qi army since its formation. The Qi army defeated the main force of the Mongolian Khan Wokuotai head-on, and won a key victory that determined the situation in Hebei. It also faced the Mongols who could not be ignored. It proved that they were a steel division that the Mongolian army could not defeat from the front.
Zhao Tai walked through the battlefield, and his ears were filled with the shouts of the soldiers. However, he did not laugh or cry. He just held the horse's rein tightly and said repeatedly in his heart, "I did it, the Qi army soldiers did it." .”
At this time, Wuxian, Li Fen and other generals rode over and found Zhao Tai. Several people galloped in front of him, turned over and dismounted, and were speechless for a while.
They should cheer and celebrate this battle, but the huge cost made them feel heavy and speechless.
Zhao Tai glanced at the generals, and through the firelight he could see that the generals were all covered in blood, and some even had wounds on their bodies.
This forced Zhao Tai to admit that the Mongolian army was powerful, but the powerful Mongolian army was still defeated by them.
"How are the injuries of Liu Dun and others? Have the bodies of Wanyan Chengde and others been found?" Zhao Tai asked in a deep voice, breaking the silence first.
Li Fen cupped his fists and said: "Liu Dun was stabbed more than ten times and has been sent to Langshan for treatment. Wanyan Chengde has been found, but he was trampled to a state of disgrace by the war horse. I am asking people to try to restrain him."
When Zhao Tai heard this, his eyes filled with tears, "We have lost many of our generals in this battle, so I really want to kill them."
It was dark, and there was no way to make statistics on the specific casualties of the Qi army. However, it was only a rough summary. It was known that one person died in the deputy capital commander, three in command, and nine battalion commanders. It was no wonder that everyone was heartbroken.
Wuxian's nephew also died in the day's battle, but he said: "Your Majesty, we suffered heavy losses in this battle, but Mongolia's losses were even more severe. According to my estimate, we killed at least 60,000 enemy soldiers in this battle. We killed hundreds of Mongolian generals. That old boy in Wokuotai has been disabled by us. Now we should put away our sorrow and drive the Mongolian army out of Hebei while they are timid!"
The formation killed 60,000 elite Mongolian troops, which is definitely a battle that can be recorded in history.
Zhao Tai put away his sad emotions and said, "Yes! We cannot let the soldiers sacrifice in vain now. Mongolia must be driven out of Hebei."
Zhao Tai looked around and said in a deep voice: "Send the order from the solitary general and ask the civilians to clear the battlefield, and all the troops will move north immediately."
The Mongolian army was frightened by the Qi army. Some of the horse troops ran towards the grassland and some ran to the east of the river. The team had already dispersed.
The Qi army cannot give Wo Kuotai a chance to breathe. All units of the Qi army must move north immediately, and Wo Kuotai cannot be allowed to regroup the army.
"Yes!" Upon hearing the order, all the generals quickly clasped their fists to accept the order.
Zhao Tai then ordered Wang Bin: "Sir, the food must be followed up!"
Wang Bin said: "We have captured a lot this time, enough for the army to last until the autumn harvest."
