At the end of Song Dynasty: I want to be the master of ZTE

Chapter 118 The troops arrive in Nanchang
"kill~"

"Kill the Tartars."

"Don't let the southern thieves come over."

"Ah~"

"Let the arrow, let the arrow..."

Outside Shicha Town, the Song and Yuan armies strangled each other, and the civilians nearby were trembling with fear.

For a month, the Song army has been attacking every day. Although the Yuan army has blocked it, the wall has not been closed yet.

"You are so cunning, you thief!" Liu Shen said bitterly: "This is just to delay the construction of the wall. When the water flow dries up, I'm afraid all the previous efforts will be wasted!"

"It doesn't matter, it can be completed tomorrow." Guan Jun Wanhu Xilimen said.

Liu Shen was still worried and said, "I'm afraid Jiang Wanzai and Wen Tianxiang will come to help."

Xilimen said: "The envoy will lead an army of ten thousand and build a stronghold to block it. No matter how cunning Jiang Wanzai is, he will not be able to advance even an inch."

In the town, Gong Xin looked at the two armies fighting and nodded slightly.

Through combat training, the Song army's tactics and combat skills have improved greatly, and they can now defeat the Yuan army's new annexed troops. Although they paid more than a thousand casualties, Gong Xin believed that it was worth it.

Seeing the troops from the Yuan Army headquarters coming this way, Gong Xin ordered the troops to withdraw with gold.

Because they were afraid of the thunder, the Yuan army did not pursue them. They only urged the civilians to dig ditches and fill walls frantically.

In Fengcheng City, Wen Tianxiang got on his horse and left the military camp first, followed by the army behind him.

On both sides of the street, many people stood on tiptoe and shouted "Dalangerlang" from time to time.

In the past month, many people in Fengcheng have defected to the army. At this time, the army went out for war, and their families naturally came to see them off.

This farewell may be an eternal farewell, and it would be good to take another look.

Wen Tianxiang looked back and said, "Here's an order, if you have a family to see you off, please give me a quarter of an hour to say goodbye."

"Thank you sir." The soldiers and civilians cheered in unison.

Seeing that he was tolerant, a girl quickly ran to the horse and said, "Mr. Wen, there are some rice cakes in this basket for you to eat on the way."

"Thank you, little lady." Wen Tianxiang asked the guards to take it away.

The young lady didn't say much and ran away with a blushing face.

The guard said: "My lord, the army and the people support us so much, why worry about the uncertainty of the world."

"This is due to your majesty's kindness, and it is actually because God will not destroy our country." Wen Tianxiang said with emotion, without mentioning why it was given to him and not to others.

Without him, handsome!
Next to him, Xiao Mingzhe said: "Why don't my husband write a poem to remember such a scene?"

Wen Tianxiang pondered for a while, and read: "Fengcheng will send troops in September, fathers and children will say goodbye. There is no return date for this trip to the north, and I will chase Leiyin with my sword. The emperor's grace is as vast as the sea, and I will shoot the eagle with all my strength. The world is chaotic. When a country is stable, a glass of wine will tell the heroic spirit."

"Your Excellency has a good literary talent." Xiao Mingzhe cheered, "The army is about to go out, and the Tartars will definitely flee, without many casualties."

"Don't underestimate the enemy. If you want Gong Xin to stick to Shicha Town and fight every day, there will be a lot of casualties. If [-] troops leave Fengcheng today, half of those who return will get half of them?" If you don’t stop, I will repay you with death!”

The army traveled at dawn and rested at night. Because Guangsa Tanma, the Yuan army could not make a surprise attack. Three days later, they successfully arrived at Xiaogu Mountain, ten miles away from Shichan Town, and set up camp.

The army stayed, firmly attracting the attention of the Yuan army's probing horses. Sun Gui and Yan Shili each led a thousand and five elite soldiers to quietly leave the camp in the middle of the night and go separately.

When Liu Shen received the information, he immediately stared with bloodshot eyes and said: "The water flooded Gong Xin, and then defeated Wen Tianxiang. It's just an old man, what's the point?"

At this time, the wall had been repaired and the villagers were raising the river embankment.

At this time, the work was about to be completed, and the civilians were moaning and not wanting to move. Xilimen was furious and shouted: "Come on, kill them all, and replace them with a new batch!"

The soldiers on the left and right rushed forward and killed all the hundreds of civilians with swords and guns.

There is still a chance of survival if you are swept away by the river, but if you are killed and you die without a burial place, the choice is actually not difficult.

As for the Song army in the wall, the civilians can't control that much.

After a while, the river embankment opened, and the river surged down. The gap in the erosion became wider and wider, and the water flow became more and more turbulent. Within half an hour, the water was up to the chest, and the flat land had turned into a lake.

"Get on board, let's go!"

Liu Shen shouted and jumped on the boat. More than 300 large and small boats carrying four thousand soldiers followed the current towards the Song army's camp.

Sure enough, Shicha Town was submerged in the water. Some soldiers stood on the town wall. When they saw the Yuan army coming to kill them, they hurriedly jumped into the water and swam back.

"Kill! Kill!" Liu Shen's face turned red.

I've been holding it in for too long and I need to vent.

Unexpectedly, as soon as he reached the town wall, a rain of arrows fell head-on, pouring Yuan Jun's face.Liu Shen's face changed and he secretly screamed.

Such a dense rain of arrows was obviously well prepared.

At this time, the Song army in front stood on the wooden raft, drawing a bow and releasing arrows, and the Song army in the rear was busy connecting the small wooden rafts into one.

When the Yuan army came closer, the Song army had already formed a military formation. The archers in the front row retreated, their spears and shields were pushed to the front, and the crossbow carts in the middle fired one after another.

Hundreds of wooden rafts are connected like flat ground, and the people and horses are galloping without any shaking, which is much better than the small boats that rise and fall with the waves.

This Yuan army was also brave. They rowed forward with all their strength, but as soon as they got in front of them, they were stabbed to death with spears. Some of the powerful ones jumped over, but they could not avoid the siege with swords and shields.

"Kill~kill~" Liu Shen fell into madness and urged the soldiers to come forward.

The preparations have been made to this point, how can we be willing to not fight?
Xi Limen directed the boat to row over, grabbed Liu Shen, and shouted: "Go quickly!"

Where to go?
Chen Baitiao came like an arrow. When he got close, he opened his bows from left to right and fired his javelins without missing a beat.

Behind him, more than a hundred boats carrying the Song army came to kill.

Being attacked from both sides, the Yuan army panicked and fled in all directions.

Xi Limen led Liu Shen to change direction and bypass the Song army camp. Just as they were about to land on the east side, they saw a Song army appear. The Yuan army, which had not yet established a stable foothold, was killed and had to retreat into the water.

"Find another direction, find another direction." Xilimen shouted.

In the camp of the Yuan army, the marching deputy Wanhu Xudutai received the news. He was shocked and immediately ordered the entire army to return to Nanchang City.

The more than [-] soldiers immediately packed up their weapons and armor, abandoned all their vehicles, food and other baggage, and hurriedly left the camp.

"Liu Shen misunderstood me!" Xun Dutai hated.

If he hadn't eaten the 8000 people of Gong Xin's tribe, he would have retreated to Nanchang City long ago. Why waste time and troops here?

Now that he has lost his troops and generals, even if he is Li Heng's son, he will not be exempted from punishment.

After traveling for more than ten miles, Xundutai suddenly saw a ray of light.

"not good……"

Before the words were spoken, a series of loud bangs were heard, and the Yuan army that stretched for four miles was immediately blown to pieces.

"Kill, don't let anyone escape!" Jiang Xin raised his knife and shouted.

"Kill it~"

Six thousand Song troops rushed out and dealt with the dizzy Yuan army like crazy.

"Ten thousand households go quickly." The guards grabbed Xundutai whose hands and feet were cold, and rushed towards a place where there were few people.

One night, Xudutai rushed back to Nanchang City, with only about ten people accompanying him, so he could only escape with his own life.

Li Heng got the report and said after a long silence: "Half of the [-] troops in Nanchang have gone. The thunder from the sky is fierce. How can we resist it?"

Neither the left nor the right can answer.

Lost the enemy who summoned the envoy said: "We must never abandon Nanchang, we can only fight to the death."

Nanchang City is not important, Poyang Lake is the key. If the Song army captures Nanchang, they can enter and exit Poyang Lake at will. At that time, whether they go west to Jinghu Lake or east to Jiangnan, they will be able to do so with ease.

"Fifteen thousand troops were lost, and the whole army was frightened. Why hold on? Why not retreat to Duchang and guard Hukou." Cheng Pengfei, an official in Pingzhang of Jiangxi Province, put forward his opinion.

Liu Guojie said: "Gathering soldiers and horses from all walks of life and setting up water fortresses at the mouths of rivers may not lead to a stalemate."

A group of people discussed until noon and had no idea, Xilimen returned to the city with Liu Shen, who was unconscious.

Li Heng was very unhappy and immediately ordered: "This man lost his master and harmed the country. His crime is unpardonable. Come on, he will be dismissed from his post and escorted to the capital for questioning."

It's just a grassroots general, and no one pleads for him.

Then, before a decision could be made, Gong Xin's troops landed on a wooden platoon at Chenjiadu, ten miles outside the city.

When the city attacked whether it was halfway across, the Jiangxin Ministry and the east of the city landed eight miles away.

Li Heng received the report, let out a long breath, and said: "Everyone, please gather around the city and defend it."

If you leave at this time, you will end up being chased from behind. Even if the Yuan army has many horses, you will still have to shed your skin if you don't die.

Although the terrain around Nanchang is flat, there is a lot of water and numerous rivers, large and small, which is really not conducive to the performance of the cavalry army.

The limericks are definitely not the real level of Prime Minister Wen. The author's level is just like this. Everyone can enjoy it and complain at will.
