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

Chapter 198 Lancers arrive on the battlefield
On Fenning City Wall, He Wei looked at the empty streets with anger on his face.

Lai Abachi only supervised the army to fight to the death, but he did not know to take the lead. Although the Song army was finally annihilated, he wasted two days in vain.

Two days!
At this time, there is not even a dog to be found in Fenning City, let alone food and the most important ship.

Sure enough, Lai Abachi came up angrily and said: "There is not even a grain of rice. They have all been moved to the other side."

"It's over." He Wei muttered to himself.

Lai Abachi didn't hear clearly and asked, "The army is already short of food. Do you want to send your men to harvest grass and grain?"

Of course he knew to go down the river as soon as possible, but the army was short of food.

They were traveling lightly, and each soldier brought five days' worth of dry food, enough to cross Mufu Mountain, and then resupply in Fenning.

However, Zhou Kuan risked his life to stop him and bought time for the people of Fenning to move. Yes, more than ten thousand people of Fenning were on the other side. However, the Yuan army couldn't get through without a boat, and they didn't even get a hair. They immediately fell into a dilemma.

It is impossible to go back. If there is no food and people eat each other, Song Jun will not need to do anything. He will eat himself up and continue down the river. I am afraid that the soldiers will flee in large numbers due to lack of food.

"General Lao, I'd like to lead the troops away, but we need to go quickly. If we get stuck in the mountains, I'm afraid..."

Before He Wei finished speaking, a horse rushed over and said: "Transfer envoy, the Song army has arrived at the ferry ten miles east of the city by boat and is disembarking."

"It's over." He Wei blurted out. Realizing that his lapse would severely damage morale, he quickly asked: "How many people are there?"

"About three thousand soldiers," Tan Ma replied.

"While his footing is unstable, kill him and find a way to survive!" Lai Abachi said fiercely.

"Okay, this is to survive in death!" He Wei agreed decisively.

The two men mobilized their entire army and marched towards the landing place of the Song army. When the Yuan army arrived, the Song army had already formed its formation on the shore.

Four rows of spearmen stood in front of each other, with swords and shields protecting the left and right.

Seeing that the river was full of boats and there were no legendary cannons, Lai Abachi smiled and said, "There will be no war."

He Wei said: "The formation is tight and cannot be underestimated."

"Not everyone can fight with all their might, let's let the men charge and kill for a while." Lai Abachi gave the order, and the Yuan army quickly completed the formation and lined up to press against the Song army.

"Calm down and fire when ordered."

"Remember, your Majesty personally designed it, the most powerful guy in the world."

"Fire at fifty paces. Trust your armor."

"When thunder explodes in the formation, it does not cause chaos. This is His Majesty's instruction. Please remember it."

Officers at all levels took turns scolding them to relieve everyone's tension.

I have been training for at least two years, but when I go into battle for the first time, I am most afraid of deforming my movements due to nervousness.

The Yuan army approached seventy steps and immediately fired arrows, focusing on hitting the pikemen in the middle.

It's just that the spearmen all wear full-body iron armor on the outside and close-fitting leather armor on the inside. The helmets are all forged from one piece. When the iron mask is pulled, only two eyes are the weak point.

With such protection, even heavy arrows are powerless, and the sharpshooter will burst into tears when he sees it.

After verifying the protective power of the armor, the Song army immediately felt at ease. Even so, seeing the Song army being shrouded in arrows, the Yuan soldiers were greatly boosted in morale and rushed forward with wild shouts.

Within a moment, the two sides were fifty steps apart.

"First row!" Yu Zhanchi shouted: "Fire!"

bang bang bang~
The slightly dull gunfire sounded, and the Yuan army immediately fell to the ground. However, due to inertia, they still rushed towards the front of the formation.

Without any orders, the first platoon fell back to reload, and the second platoon stepped forward to fire.

The gunfire was continuous, but the accuracy was not high, and some fish were still missed.

Seeing that the Yuan army's thunder hand was about to catch fire, Yu Zhanchi suddenly pulled the trigger. With a bang, the thunder hand vomited blood and fell backward.

The muskets fired randomly in four stages, and the rifle rifles sniped accurately. With the cooperation of each other, the Yuan army could not get closer.

"Run~" "If you can't beat him, you can't die."

"Surrender, surrender, grandpa, spare your life."

The Yuan soldiers cried for their fathers and mothers, most of them turned around and retreated, while a few knelt down and surrendered.

"Straight bitch..." Lai Abachi was stunned and subconsciously spit out the essence of the national curse.

He Wei closed her eyes in pain and couldn't bear to look directly at the battlefield.

After a moment of pause, He Wei shouted: "Come on, gather all the armor and shields of the army, I will lead the team myself."

"General, you are mighty!" Yuan Bing cheered up slightly and immediately raised funds for armor.

The roads over the mountains and ridges are rugged and cannot be passed by vehicles. The soldiers alone cannot carry too much weight, so there are not many armors, especially heavy armors, in the army.

After busy for a long time, He Wei put on three layers of heavy armor, and there were [-] heavy armored soldiers behind him, each holding a large shield and pressing towards the Song army.

The Song soldiers remained silent and stood ready with their guns raised. The Yuan soldiers suppressed their panic and prayed silently, hoping that God would bless the heavily armored soldiers to kill them.

Think more.

The fire was shining, the smoke was rising, the heavy shields were hit hard, and they were knocked to the ground one after another. Without the shield, the heavy armor was also knocked over.

Blood flowers were rare, but the heavily armored soldiers were groaning and unable to get up, obviously suffering from internal injuries.

After a moment, the heavily armored soldiers retreated in embarrassment, and He Wei was dragged back by two soldiers.

He was wearing Western heavy armor, the kind made from a single piece of iron, but it was now flattened, as if it had been hit by a powerful hammer.

"General, I can't stop you." The guard cried.

Lai Abachi took a deep breath and spit out one word: "Retreat!"

It's easy to come, want to leave?
The Song soldiers marched in formation, because the musketeers were wearing heavy armor, and their speed was really slow. However, the Yuan soldiers came out of the city in a hurry and fought another round. They were already exhausted. soft.

Therefore, a large number of Yuan soldiers left the army.

Those who felt they had the ability went into the forest, intending to live happily for the bandits, but most of them knelt down and surrendered.

When Abachi returned to Fenning City, there were only more than 6000 soldiers left.

Of the [-] troops, about [-] were wounded and killed, far less than [-]%. However, the momentum was lost, and more people escaped than died.

This is a huge defeat, it's that simple.

"We can't take in so many prisoners, can we?" Zhu Yong made a gesture of cutting his throat.

Jiang Xiangu fell into deep thought after hearing this.

With so many prisoners, not only had they been guarded early, but they also had to be provided with a large amount of food. This group of troops was basically dragged to Fenning.

Yu Zhanchi said: "The defeated troops are scattered in the mountains and forests. If we massacre the prisoners of war, I am afraid that we will not be able to recruit them and will have to be surrounded and suppressed by a large army. We will have to accept them."

The bandits will not fight face to face in formation. If they really want to fight to the death, there must be constant guerrilla warfare in the mountains on the border of Jiangxi and Hubei. It is impossible to clean up without an army of [-] to [-] people pulling back and forth with nets.

The cost is too high and not cost-effective.

The three reached an agreement and ordered the surrender.

Jiang Bing was surprisingly honest. He would never lie down when he was lying on his stomach, and he would never touch his armor when being attacked by weapons.

Seeing the surrendered soldiers peeking at their muskets from time to time, Zhu Yong understood that he was afraid of being beaten.

Not to mention ordinary soldiers, even Zhu Yong himself was envious and wanted a firecracker in his dreams.

Men's romance is that simple.

However, as a newly surrendered general, Zhu Yong knew that it was impossible to issue muskets and artillery before proving his loyalty. He could only work hard to prove himself.
