Chapter 308 The Battle of Guangxi
"kill~"

While shouting, Yuan soldiers rushed towards Wenquan Prefecture in a swarm. Because the formation was too scattered, the artillery in the fortress did not fire.

When they got closer, they heard gunshots ringing out, Yuan soldiers kept throwing themselves down, and those who were injured but not dead screamed in agony.

After a moment, the remaining Yuan soldiers became timid and turned around and ran back.

"No, we still have to dig the trench." Dali Buhan put down the telescope and sighed.

"It's been too long. I'm afraid I won't be able to respond to Hasan." Lieutenant General Gao Zheng said.

"It depends on whether the envoy can make a breakthrough." Dali Buhan said.

At this time, just before the Lai'an Army, the Yuan Army had dug trenches in front of the Song Army's trenches, with only a distance of more than three feet to penetrate them.

High in the city, Miao Zaicheng was observing the movements of the Yuan army, but did not issue any orders.

The plan to defend the city had already been drawn up, and it was executed by officers at all levels, and the generals could defend the city independently. If they had to wait for the general to make decisions, the day lily would be cold.

Soon, the Yuan army buried the gunpowder, only to hear a few loud bangs, and five trenches were connected.

"Kill it~"

Amid the shouts, the Yuan army rushed into the Song army's trenches.

Bang~bang~bang~
Boom~
The muskets and rifles opened fire one after another, thunder exploded everywhere, and the battle was fierce.

The artillery on both sides also began to roar, spraying iron bullets at each other.

Not to mention the effect, the atmosphere is indeed full.

On a hilltop outside the city, Chen Guobao stared at the killing place through a telescope, frowning.

The Yuan army's fortifications were hastily dug out, and the Song army's were quite complete, but the Yuan army was invisibly inferior. In addition, the Song army's configuration was more suitable for trench warfare, and the Yuan army suffered a great loss.

"Send the order, the rear team rushes up from the ground and must capture the trench outside the city." Chen Guobao ordered.

After the order was issued, the 3000 Yuan soldiers who had been ready dispersed, each jumped to the ground with swords and guns, bent down and rushed towards the Song Army's position.

The Song soldiers, who had been prepared for a long time, took out their torque crossbows and fired at the Yuan army.

Being backward is indeed backward, but it is cheap.

The Yuan army attacked with a skirmishing formation. Even if the Tiger Crouching Cannon was fully fired, it could not kill a few people. Instead of wasting gunpowder and shells, it was better to use a torque crossbow.

It's lethal, fast, and most importantly, cheap.

Seeing the Song army emerging, the Yuan army archers mixed in immediately launched a counterattack.

The range of bows and arrows is greater than that of muskets and torque crossbows, but it is very laborious and has no aiming time. Except for a few sharpshooters who can cause damage, the others are mostly deterrents.

The Yuan army's artillery adjusted its angle, and the gunmen also emerged to suppress the Song army's position with fire.

It's just that the hit rate is impressive, but it mainly has a courage-boosting effect.

Fortunately, the distance was not far, and the Yuan soldiers fought in front of the trench at the cost of more than a hundred casualties. At this time, the musketeers who had been holding back pulled the trigger.

With a close-to-the-face output, no matter how rubbish the musket is, it will not be lost. In just one wave, thousands of Yuan soldiers will be lost.

Three-stage shooting was impossible in the trenches, so the musketeers retreated to reload, the sword and shield men resisted the Yuan soldiers, and the pikemen thrust forward with their spears.

Four or five people can easily kill a Yuan soldier when facing them, and then turn to other Yuan soldiers, with no disadvantages.

There were also brave Yuan soldiers who rushed in. Just as they killed the swordsman and shieldman, the musketeer had already put his gun to the door.

No matter how high your martial arts skills are, you can knock him down with one shot.Seeing the ground troops retreating hastily, Chen Guobao punched his thigh angrily and cursed: "Coward!"

Thinking of him starting from a hundred households, he must be the first in every battle, fighting to the death no matter good or bad, naturally he can't bear to retreat when encountering difficulties, but he also knows that the Song army is well-equipped, and the new tactics changed because of the equipment are also ahead, Yuan It is not surprising that the army cannot move.

Just when Chen Guobao was fighting for success, the Song army forward who returned to aid Yongzhou arrived in front of Gulou Mountain.

"Stop the whole army." He Shiying gave an order, causing the entire battalion to stop in front of Gulou Mountain Road.

"Lao He." Supervisor Chen Wei asked, "How did you stop?"

He Shiying said: "Look at the forest, the birds are spinning and not falling, there must be an ambush, don't enter lightly."

"Oops." Chen Wei said, "Since the Tatars have set up an ambush here, I'm afraid Yongzhou has been lost."

"With one bad move, there is nothing we can do." He Shiying said: "For the current plan, we must completely wipe out this group of Tartars to avenge the soldiers and people of Yongzhou."

"The top priority is to find a way for the Chinese army. What do you think?" Chen Wei asked.

He Shiying said: "Send a platoon in to explore the way, and the whole battalion will follow up, forming a skirmish formation and preparing for a chaotic battle."

In the mountains and forests, Xia Bo held up his binoculars and saw that the Song army had stopped moving forward. He was very disappointed, but there was nothing he could do.

Xia Gui was very good at fighting when he was young, otherwise he would not have been retained again and again. Although the older he gets, the more he becomes tired, but the knowledge and experience of leading troops in war have not disappeared. Xia Bai has learned many real skills by following him around. .

He understood that when birds circled in the forest, there must be an ambush, but he could not stop the birds from flying.

Seeing the Song Army spies coming in, Xia Bai knew that it was impossible to ambush, so he asked his deputy general to take 3000 people back, and he stopped the Song Army here.

Hasan was rewarded. After thinking for a moment, he led the large army to Hengzhou.

His mission is to undermine the stability of the Song Army's rear, involve the Song Army on the front line to retreat, and create opportunities for Dali Buhan. It is good to be able to annihilate the Song Army's effective strength, but if you don't have it, don't force it.

Behind the Yuan army, on the Temo Road at the junction of Guangxi and Yunnan, countless mountain people came down the mountain, armed with simple hunting bows and inferior swords and guns, and headed towards Fuzhou, where the government was.

In the past, Temo Road was the main trade route between Guangxi and Dali, with prosperous commerce and constant business travel. The mountain people made a living on it and lived a pretty good life.

The Yuan Dynasty occupied Yunnan, and the Song Dynasty regained most of Guangxi. Trade between the two sides was cut off. Only the Yuan army came and went, so business was naturally impossible.

Later, Dali Buhan sent his troops out of Yunnan and made many promises to resist the Song army but failed to implement them. He even made various plunderings to supply the front line, which aroused the dissatisfaction of various tribes.

Seeing the opportunity, Jiang Huang sent people to infiltrate and contact various ministries. Although he spent more than a hundred meticulous lives, he successfully persuaded Shannusu, Shen Langxian, Yilangxin and other tribal leaders.

The Yuan army detoured to South Vietnam and entered Yongzhou, which started an all-out war in Guangxi. Jiang Qiu no longer held back and ordered all ministries to launch.

Fortunately, the general manager of Temo Road had always been on guard against the various tribes. After learning the news, he immediately recruited close tribesmen to come to help in the battle.

Of course, Jiang Guan would not sit back and watch the tribal troops die. He had already sent five thousand light troops over the mountains and bypassed the frontline Yuan troops to support them.

In Hezhou, the hinterland of Guangxi, several tribes gathered more than [-] people and surrounded the Taiping Bank.

Song Ting regarded Han and barbarians as one body, and gradually eliminated local officials. Many tribal leaders were secretly resentful, which gave Dali Buhan an opportunity to operate.

When news came that the Yuan army had captured Yongzhou, the chieftain of Hezhou responded immediately.

It's just that Li Ling was out of his wits. Instead of attacking the city and taking the territory, they went to the silver market to grab the silver first, leaving Yuan Ting's Xiao Zuo helpless.

Don't look at them having a lot of fun, pulling out the list afterwards, none of them can escape, unless they go to Yuanjing.

In short, because of Hasan's detour and surprise attack, the war spread throughout Guangxi and will not be extinguished for a while.
