The Reborn Lao Tzu Is the Emperor

Chapter 278 Dramatic Changes in the Battle Situation ([-])

That night, outside the city of Wuzhou, the troops of the Yuan army chasing out of the city failed to catch up with the Song army led by Wen Tianxiang and Zhang Jue.

The next day, Zhao Dongting led the Tianxian Army out of Duanxi City and headed south to Gaozhou.

The only remaining people in Duanxi City were also taken away by him.

The current prosperity of Leizhou has already spread here. With Zhao Dongting's personal guarantee that they will arrive in Leizhou safely, these people will certainly not hesitate any longer.In the army, there are even more soldiers who are carrying the disabled old people, sick people, etc. This has attracted thousands of people in Duanxi to be very grateful to Zhao Dongting.

In the past, no emperor had done this.

Although Zhao Dongting has not yet completed the task of restoring the country, his actions of being close to the people undoubtedly made these people feel very fresh.

The emperor seemed no longer so out of reach.

In the past, the word "emperor" was as unattainable as a god in the hearts of the common people, but now, they really feel that the emperor is by their side.

Looking at Zhao Dongting's chariot in the army, some people even had tears in their eyes.

The imperial court finally took care of their lives.

And in the evening of this day, on the halfway from Wuzhou City to Tanjin County, by the Yujiang River.After all, the Song Army was chased up by the cavalry of the Yuan Army.

Most of the Song army's large troops were infantry, and they also carried military equipment and food. It was obviously not easy to run past the prestigious Yuan army cavalry.

There was a sound of hoofbeats and shouts from behind.The banner of the Yuan army's iron cavalry was fluttering, and it pressed up like a black cloud at an extremely fast speed.

From a rough look, I'm afraid there must be tens of thousands of them, which can be said to be all over the mountains and plains.

Ge Lichun, Ge Xiuhong, Liu Yong, and Yan Mingling were all in command of the rear army cavalry. Seeing this scene, they couldn't help but look heavy.

The cavalry soldiers of their four armies add up to less than 2.Facing such a powerful Yuan army, the odds of winning were slim.

Wen Jun Ji Ling and Deputy Zhang Ji Ling in the front probably had a hard time knowing that the Yuan army's iron cavalry had come after them. They understood that they could only adapt to the situation at this time.

Changeable, how to change?
Right now it is a dead end, they are in charge of breaking the rear, and the only way to go is to block the Yuan army.

In a short period of time, the iron cavalry of the Yuan army was no more than a thousand meters away from them.

The Yuan army obviously had no intention of stopping to confront them, and the war horse showed no sign of slowing down.

On the south side of the Song army's rear army, Liu Yong and Yan Mingling took the lead in raising their weapons and shouting: "Brothers, kill!"

Without hesitation, they led the cavalry under their command to charge towards the Yuan army without hesitation.

Both of them were from the rebel army, but they had many victories and wiped out many Yuan armies.Courage and loyalty are naturally present.

Brothers Ge Xiuhong and Ge Lichun had to calm down, they were still trying to find a way, but seeing that the Tianmeng army and the Tiangui army were already charging up, they had no choice but to go up to meet them.

Earthquakes.

The two armies spread for several miles and collided like two torrents.

Ge Xiuhong and his army each had two thousand firecrackers, and they fired one after another hundreds of meters away from the Yuan army's iron cavalry.

Numerous cavalrymen in the front row of the Yuan army were shot and fell off their horses.

However, this did not stop the Yuan army cavalry's charge.

It is not unreasonable for the iron cavalry of the Yuan army to be famous all over the world, and it is not unreasonable to conquer Europe on an expedition.Their cavalry is really good.

In the previous siege battles, their cavalry prosperity could not be reflected.But right now is the vast wilderness, but it gives them great room to play.

Amidst the sound of gunshots in the chaos, the cavalry of the two armies quickly rushed together, in a state of chaos.

A few miles ahead, the Song army hurried on their way, and the exhausted infantry could hear the sound of gunshots and explosions behind them.

Yuan Jun caught up.

Soon someone went to report to Wen Tianxiang and Zhang Jue, and then, scouts rushed over from behind.

When Wen Tianxiang and Zhang Jue learned that the Yuan army had arrived, their faces were extremely solemn.

They all know the strength of the iron cavalry of the Yuan army, and under the command of Boyan and Ye Su'er, there are definitely not a few iron cavalry chasing out of the city.

When they were on their way last night, they asked the cavalry behind to plant a minefield on the road.But unexpectedly, Yuan Jun still caught up so quickly.

If it weren't for the large number of soldiers, could they have passed through the thunder formation so quickly?

The two looked at each other, and they both knew that the Song Army cavalry behind them were in danger.

However, there is no way right now.

From the moment Wen Tianxiang decided to withdraw from Wuzhou, he had anticipated that they might encounter such a dangerous situation after leaving the city.

It is impossible for tens of thousands of soldiers to retreat to Tanjin safely, because the Yuan army is definitely not easy to deal with.

Wen Tianxiang was not even sure whether he could bring these pawns back to Tanjin.

You know, Ye Suerke still has tens of thousands of troops who have not shown up.

The two were silent for a few minutes, and Zhang Jue asked, "Does the military order really allow the cavalry soldiers behind to sacrifice like this?"

He used to guard Kuizhou, and rarely did such a thing as a strong man cut off his wrist.

Wen Tianxiang could not bear it, he hesitated a few times, but in the end, he nodded.

In fact, from the moment Ge Lichun and the others were cut off from the rear, he already had the idea of ​​sacrificing them to protect the large army.Everyone knows this very well.

Ge Lichun, Ge Xiuhong, and Yan Mingling were also very clear about it, but at that time, no one showed any dissatisfaction.

Because, at present, they are the only ones who can complete the mission of the Song Army.

Could it be that it would be impossible to let the severely injured Tianshang, Tianyong and Tianfujun go to the rear?

Wen Tianxiang used to deal with the Yuan army in various places in the Song Dynasty, and was often chased away by his tail. He did many such things.

This is not because he is cruel, but because of the situation.Sometimes, as a manager, you have no choice at all.

The most important thing is to retain as many troops as possible.At least Wen Tianxiang thinks so.

It is precisely because of this that he resolutely wants to withdraw from Wuzhou.

In fact, he was also very painful and blamed himself, but he couldn't tell anyone, he could only bear it by himself.

Wen Tianxiang is actually only 45 years old so far, which can be said to be in his prime, but he looks as if he is 60 or [-] years old.This is because he bears too many things in his heart, and it is not an exaggeration to say that he is physically and mentally exhausted.

He rubbed his forehead vigorously, gritted his teeth and said, "Pass down the order and let the soldiers speed up their pace!"

He didn't know if Ge Xiuhong and the others could block all the Yuan army. If Yuan army cavalry charged from both sides, they would be in trouble.

Soon, this order was passed on, and the Song army marched a little faster.

Later, Ge Xiuhong, Yan Mingling and others led the cavalry and the Yuan army's iron cavalry to fight bloody.

The Yuan army really had the intention of going around from both sides and chasing the Song army's infantry.However, Yan Mingling and others arranged the soldiers extremely wide, firmly blocking the entire avenue, and strangled their thoughts.

Ge Xiuhong and the others are also experienced generals, and they undoubtedly also want to know what strategies the Yuan army may have.

It's just that they spread their soldiers too widely, and undoubtedly have great weaknesses.

There are less than [-] cavalry in total. The wider the front line is, the weaker the line of defense will be.They are not as numerous as the Yuan army, which will be more dangerous.

If it is not to protect the infantry in front, they should gather in groups, forming a formation of sharp knives and fighting with the Yuan army is the most correct way of fighting.

In the final analysis, it is still because there is no choice at this time.

Even Ge Xiuhong and the others didn't think about going back alive.They only thought that they could try their best to delay the Yuan army.

There was an extremely desolate atmosphere that had already spread in their army.

Soldier soldiers and horses seldom end well. This has been the case since ancient times.

The fighting situation was extremely tragic.

On this scorching grass that had been scorched day in and day out, soldiers from both sides were chopped off their horses one after another, lying in the weeds and never moving again.The layers of heat waves rising from the ground seemed to blur their faces.

The heroism of each of them can be called an epic, but here, it seems ordinary.

They are unsung heroes.

The soldiers who fought on these battlefields, whether they were the Song Army or the Yuan Army, were actually respectable.

Most of them are fighting for the nation.Although many of them may be numb and just drift with the flow, the blood they shed is undoubtedly worthy of admiration.

Ge Xiuhong, Ge Liu Chun, Yan Mingling, Liu Yong and other generals of the Song army rushed to the forefront, and in a short time, they were already covered in blood.

Such a powerful battle situation, no matter how high the martial arts is, it will only be as small as an ant.

About ten minutes later, in the formation of the Tianmeng army, the banner fell.

Beside Liu Yong, the fierce general carrying the big banner was shot in the chest by several sniper arrows, bleeding from the corner of his mouth, and fell off his horse.

He was originally a master of Zhongyuan Realm, but with a big banner on his shoulder, he had no time to resist dozens of cold arrows shot at him.

And at the moment when the big banner fell, a Tianmeng soldier got off his horse and picked up the big banner immediately behind, and then followed Liu Yong's pace.

But after another few tens of seconds, the soldier who was carrying the banner was shot down again by a cold arrow.

One by one the soldiers rushed up and picked up the banner.

Liu Yong was drenched in blood, trembling non-stop, his eyes were red, there was no way to fight, and he was completely numb.

The big banner is a symbol of the army.If the army does not reach a desperate situation, the big flag will not fall.
