Chapter 1161 Collapse
Shi Tianze's battle flags were like clouds.

The soldiers lined up, nervously facing the Tang army coming from the south.

"Father, didn't Zhang Hongfan say that he has already captured Hongjinggou? Why did Tang Jun still kill him?"

Shi Gang rode his horse and galloped all the way, and only then did he finally have the opportunity to ask Shi Tianze.

Shi Tianze was still intensively laying out the defense line, and replied casually: "Although he took down Hongjinggou, he didn't have time to attack the mountain and deploy defenses."

"why?"

"Why?" Shi Tianze was silent for a while, "Victory and defeat are commonplace in military affairs."

This time, he finally made no excuses.

There is no detailed betrayal of the military situation, no nobles from the Golden Family to dictate... It is not even Li Xia who is facing.Shi Tianze was defeated.

"Boy, I really don't understand." Shi Bang said, "Even if it's a common thing in the military, how could Zhang Hongfan lose to a few unknown soldiers?"

Due to the retreat of a large number of defeated soldiers, it also had a very bad impact on the morale of the Yuan army. Today, Kublai Khan will take the elephant to supervise the battle, and the incentive effect he can play is much smaller.

Shi Tianze did not hesitate, and immediately led his troops to flee to the west.

"Father, look at the names of those enemy generals. Pifeng, Huhu, and Gao Nianfeng are all names given by lowly peasants, savages, and servants." It's too strange for Hong Hongfan to be defeated by a few unknown pawns this time..."

Pairs of military boots stepped on the blood pools all over the ground, and flags flew across the hills.

After the Yuan army collected the defeated soldiers, their strength was no more than 7.

The two sides fought, and the arrows flew, covering the sky and the sun.

"I am not your subordinate."

"Kill the prisoner!"

"Here! I will understand in the end."

"..."

The Mongolian cavalry are fast, and there is no loss if they are defeated. As long as they turn around and run, they can come back next time.

The generals of the Yuan army were about to control the situation, but the Tang army in the north burst into shouts in unison.

"General, the soldiers and horses of Kedun in the Western Regions are still chasing Hachi!"

After that, a big head was held up high by soldiers of the Tang army.

"..."

The Yuan army did not retreat and was still storming the Dingyuan camp, as if it was only the last push away from victory.

"Father……"

The binoculars in his hand fell to the ground.

Finally, they began to rush towards the main front of the Yuan army in the north.

He still has more than 1 people, plus the [-] people in Hulahuer to the north, he can stop them for a few more days.

Shi Tianze ignored his son, rode his horse up to a high place, and watched more and more Tang Jun appearing in the sky.

The most beheaded was Hu Lanji.

Shi Tianze closed his eyes, knowing that he was defeated once again.

Gao Nianfeng raised his binoculars and swept across the battlefield. He first glanced at the elephants carried by four elephants in the furthest distance, and then at the other two moving elephants in the Yuan army.

Before he even realized it, the mount had already been hit by an arrow.

He never imagined that an ordinary person like himself would really stand out in such a big battle one day.

In fact, there are not many Dali people under Gao Nianfeng's command, and they did not come from Yunnan this time. The soldiers and horses from Yunnan probably only arrived in Guanzhong.

"go!"

None of the generals of the Yuan army expected to be so caught off guard.

1, 2, 3...

But the strategic location has been lost, and the defeat in the south is like a corner of a mountain collapsing to the entire Yuan army's battle situation.

He is using his personal experience to tell the soldiers that even an ordinary farmer like him can become a general, which is a great opportunity for a man to make contributions.

"Keep chasing!"

I really want to be a general!

But the Tang army didn't even reach the noble Zongwang, and was still fighting with the soldiers and horses brought by Manggu.

"That's Kublai Khan up there." Gao Nianfeng handed out the binoculars and said, "You all have to watch carefully, concentrate your forces to attack him today."

Li Xia continued: "After breaking through the West Road, Kublai Khan will definitely not want to fight again, he will lead his troops to transfer."

No one went to detail how many troops they had.

The Tang army over there began to attack, and Shi Tianze began to command calmly, steadily blocking the Tang army's attack.

Lu Xiaoyou galloped past, and at the same time issued orders step by step.

"The battlefield has reached this point, and I can't care about these anymore."

"General, watch me rushing in front of the captive chief, startling his elephant, and smashing him to pieces..."

The deterrent effect of elephants on the Tang army is also rapidly decreasing.

"I don't know, anyway, my grandfather died earlier."

The shouts of killing became louder and louder, and the dust and smoke became higher and higher.

He stationed his troops three miles away from Hulahuer's camp, so that the news of the retreat would not disturb Hulahula's soldiers, and the Tang army who was chasing up could just see the flag of the main force of the Yuan army and be shocked.

Tang Jun was getting closer.

He finally didn't have to think about how to explain to Kublai Khan anymore, what he thought about might be how to leave this place alive.

"You can use this battle to get rid of the eight assassins who coveted the Khan of the Chagatai Khanate, get back the captured herdsmen, and the spoils I promised you."

"Master, look over there!"

During this night, the Yuan army's offensive became more and more fierce, and at the same time, more and more Tang troops entered the camp.

After dispatching the soldiers and horses, the sky was already bright.

The soldiers of the Tang army also understood, and they all rushed to the north in the direction of the nine-pronged white banner.

~~
"General, it's really riding an elephant to fight."

But Li Xia finally turned from defense to offense, and he was absolutely unwilling to let Kublai Khan withdraw from the battlefield after such a small defeat.

"I know, when Wuliang Hetai occupied Dali, he paid tribute." Gao Nianfeng asked his generals, "Do you know how many Dali people died for the tribute elephant?"

In fact, part of the direction of the battle can already be seen from the formation.

"I killed a Marshal Du! I killed a Marshal Wanhu!"

"Gao Nianfeng, you reinforce the north. This is the main battlefield. Kublai Khan's main force is here. This battle should be stable. We are not in a hurry to win. We must cover the Yuan army like a pocket."

"Didn't father always say that historians are the most important?"

And Kublai Khan would not take so many days to defeat Li Xia.

As soon as the battle was fought, the rout soldiers began to flee, and then led to the rout of the West Route Army.

~~
On the west road, the Yuan army was led by King Zong Baci and Marshal Hu Lanji of Wanhu, and they fought steadily all the time.

"When your grandfather joined Genghis Khan back then, I was just a nobody, and the place was powerful." Shi Tianze said indifferently, "Which one of the famous generals in the world is born a famous general?"

"Kublai Khan, who rides an elephant! Kill him!"

But last night, the Eight Strikers gathered too many rout soldiers, and before they had time to reorganize, or even find Hulahu'er and Shi Tianze to ask about the specific situation of the battle, Tang Jun had already killed them.

"Stop the bullshit and get ready to attack."

"Fight!"

~~
The Tang army did not manage the luggage left by the Yuan army, but continued to rush north.

"Confession?" Shi Tianze said, "You're still thinking about this."

"I know, I told you not to order me." Wulu Hunai said lightly, but still stepped forward to accept Li Xia's military order.

In fact, Li Xia had already begun to dispatch troops and horses, arranging to counterattack Kublai Khan.

For example, Kublai Khan no longer sent the Qixue army to the front line, but served as the Chinese army to hold the line.Although this may be to allow more fresh troops to enter the field, it may not be for the convenience of evacuation.

If it is said that the defeat of the army is like a mountain, then the mountain began to collapse during the battle of Sanguankou and Jiguanliang. Of course, no one can stop it.

"It's this damned captive chieftain who hung the banner of 'stop killing' and killed all of us Dali people."

Perhaps it was useful for the old mother to pray to the Buddha in her hometown, and it was God's favor that gave him this opportunity to make contributions.

However, until noon, it was Xilu who decided the whole battle.

There were screams from the side, and occasionally a few arrows flew by... Lu Xiaoyou suppressed the excitement in his heart, kept his focus, and stared at the enemy flags one after another.

Shi Tianze was observing the enemy formation with a binoculars, when he heard this, he turned his head.

When there are more than [-] enemies coming from the south like a huge wave, when thousands of friendly troops from the north rushing towards them.The more than ten thousand soldiers and horses who were caught in the middle and just got their feet back from the defeat suddenly felt desperate.

Looking at the entire battlefield, the strength of the Tang army has surpassed that of the Yuan army. At this time, they shouted in unison, shaking the whole field, suppressing all other voices.

"Here!"

The scene can be seen with the naked eye... Hulahuer's banner has fallen, but Hulahuer himself must be running towards him.

~~
At night, Camp Mountain.

Shi Gang murmured: "What should I do?"

This is why the Song State has always had no choice but to take the Mongolian cavalry.

"Xu Kui, Hu Hu, you help Bao San defeat the small Yuan army led by Aibuhua and Hong Junqi in the east, and then go north from the west slope of Helan Mountain. Guard these routes for the Yuan army to retreat in advance."

But in fact, Kublai Khan and Li Xia knew very well that the offensive and defensive momentum had changed.

"Cooperate with them to catch up!" Lu Xiaoyou raised his sword and shouted: "Drive out the routs, attack the main formation of the captive chiefs, and make achievements today!"

Finally, at dawn, the strength of the Tang army had reached nearly 10.

"Kublai Khan, who rides an elephant! Kill him!"

And the collapse is still spreading...

But these generals are very familiar with elephants, so naturally they are not afraid.

Although Kublai Khan is still attacking Li Xia on the surface, in fact, he is just holding the last expectation.

There were a large number of infantry in the Tang army, which enabled most of the Yuan army to quickly leave the battlefield and gradually fled back to the camp of the main force of the Yuan army.

"But how should father explain to His Majesty? There can't be only one sentence: victory or defeat is a common matter in military affairs."

He couldn't tell whether it was due to reasons other than the battlefield, or simply because his combat power was inferior to others... In fact, victory is victory, and defeat is defeat. How can there be so many reasons?

According to Shi Tianze's judgment, at least [-] Tang troops came from the post road at Sanguankou.

suddenly.

For a while, more than [-] yuan army cavalry had dispersed.

The excited soldiers of the Tang army looked very fierce, and the defeated soldiers of the Yuan army turned around and fled one after another.

"Wulu Hunai, you help Lu Xiaoyou attack the Baci and Hulanji on the western battlefield. You have an absolute superiority in force, and you must win this battle quickly."

The generals quickly adjusted their formation, transferred the exhausted soldiers to the rear, and the new force moved forward to continue the fierce battle.

Gao Nianfeng was the group of people who followed Li Xia from Dali to the north in the early years, but now there are only dozens of generals around him who were brought out back then.

Every order he gave still seemed very calm, but in fact he was already extremely excited.

The roars of the generals of the Yuan army seemed to be hoarse, and they couldn't command the rout at all. They could only watch them rush towards the main formation.

And the momentum boosted by Xiangyu, and the deterrence it caused to Tang Jun also dissipated at this moment.

Once the attack and defense changed, the soldiers of the Yuan army were only worried that Kublai Khan would be too conspicuous in his elephant.

Panic suddenly arose among all the soldiers of the Yuan army at such an instant, and it was impossible to suppress it...
