The Reborn Lao Tzu Is the Emperor

Chapter 971
"kill!"

Gao Tianzong also saw this scene, his eyes were red, but he could only lead the soldiers to charge forward.

Looking around, there are war horses everywhere.

He didn't know how many people there were in the regiments, but even if there was only one soldier left, he had no choice but to charge forward.

At the foot of Drum Mountain.

Ashu also noticed the continuous explosions that suddenly sounded from the army.

When some scouts came to report to him, he pointed to the place where the explosion happened before and asked, "What happened to the blast just now?"

The scout just ran from there, and upon hearing this, he quickly replied: "Return to the Marshal, there are dozens of Song Army grenade launchers who committed suicide with Lalei."

"Raleigh committed suicide?"

Ashu was startled for a while, then became a little lost, waved his hands and sighed: "Well, you go down!"

The scout looked at A Shu suspiciously before running away.He didn't understand why the Marshal's mood suddenly changed.

As everyone knows, at this time, Ah Shu recalled the time when he fought with Meng Ge in the east and west.

At that time, he followed Meng Ge to conquer the Southwest Yi, flatten Dali, and sweep all the tribes on the grassland. It seems that the warriors on the grassland at that time were as brave and fearless as these Song soldiers.

I just don't know when, the warriors on the grassland gradually changed.

They are no longer so brave, and many people are gradually addicted to power and lust.

Even he himself, Ah Shu, has become more and more proficient in fighting for power and fighting for power and scheming in the imperial city these years, but he is gradually no longer the marshal who took the lead in the past.At this moment, he suddenly realized that he seemed to have forgotten how to set an example for the soldiers.

Is it just because of old age?
Do not!
It's because I no longer have the original belief in my heart.

After the Jin Dynasty was destroyed, the territory of the Yuan Dynasty stretched across endless distances. Although the emperor Kublai Khan was still ambitious, the people below were not so keen on expanding the territory.

Thinking about it, Ashu murmured suddenly, "It would be great if I could go back to the beginning..."

At this moment, the face of this well-known marshal of the Yuan Dynasty finally showed some old look.

10 minutes passed by.

Gao Tianzong and others protected the monks and were finally able to rush out with the Yuan army's iron cavalry.

A vast land appeared in the rain ahead, but it was not the horses and armor that made people feel a little hopeless.

"Come on!"

"withdraw!"

As soon as they rushed past the cavalry, Gao Tianzong and the others shouted hastily.

The original six-sided banner now only has four sides left, and they all go west together.

All the soldiers guarded the monks of Yongquan Temple and ran in a hurry.

There were nearly [-] soldiers, and now only more than [-] are left.

This is still supported by the monks of Yongquan Temple, otherwise, perhaps the Fuzhou garrison would not be able to charge out of these Yuan army cavalry.

However, even though he rushed out at this moment, it was far from being out of danger.

The iron cavalry of the Yuan army has already turned around the pier, sticking to the back all the time.

There was a mix of gunshots and screams.

Even though there are Shenlong gunners in the Fuzhou garrison, there are also soldiers who are dying all the time.

I have to say that it is indeed a clever plan for Ashu to set fire to the mountain.The original arrangements and plans of Gao Tianzong, Che Hongyu and others were completely disrupted.

The Fuzhou garrison could only retreat while fighting.

Another mile to go.

Finally, I saw the mountain again.

Che Hongyu's army was at the front with the big banner, he didn't care too much, and hurriedly ran towards the mountain.

Only mountains and rivers can stop the cavalry of the Yuan army.Otherwise, sooner or later, these people would still be swallowed up and destroyed by these Yuan armies.

When Gao Tianzong and the others saw Che Hongyu walking towards the mountain with a large banner, they also understood what he meant, and immediately led the soldiers to run towards the mountain.

When he got to the mountain, he hurried up the mountain again.

Only at this time, the number of soldiers under their command will inevitably decrease.

The six legions that were originally ordered to resist Ashu, totaling more than [-] soldiers, are probably only around [-] left now.

Many monks in Yongquan Temple died in the chaos just now, less than half of them remained.

All the monks were covered in blood.

There are also many wounded in the army.

This battle was truly tragic.Except when resisting the Yueli army, the Song army seldom experienced such a tragic experience.

Fortunately, the iron cavalry of the Yuan army finally reined in helplessly at the foot of the mountain.Their pawns hadn't been able to catch up yet, so Gao Tianzong and the others were finally out of danger temporarily.

After arriving at the mountainside, Gao Tianzong and the others turned off the road and continued westward.

After running over two more hills in this way, the shouts of the Yuan army behind were finally deaf.

Fortunately, the general training of the soldiers of the Fuzhou garrison was arduous, and the monks in Yongquan Temple did not lack of exercise. Otherwise, they would be exhausted from running so far.

But by this time, everyone is close to the limit of physical strength.

Gao Tian saw that the Yuan army was thrown some distance away, so he asked the soldiers to rest where they were.Then, he and Che Hongyu walked towards old monk Huizhi.

The heads of the original six regiments had already lost two of them.

Several people walked up to the old monk Huizhi, seeing many monks with red eyes, and sighed in their hearts.

This battle has ended like this, and no one feels good.The soldiers under their command died far more than the monks in Yongquan Temple.

Just because they are generals, no matter how sad they feel, they can't show their weak side in front of the soldiers.

Gao Tianzong looked at the slightly pale old monk Huizhi, and said, "Master, you will take all the eminent monks to Changle County later!"

Old monk Huizhi was slightly moved, "Aren't you going, general?"

Gao Tianzong said: "The military order we received was to resist these Yuan troops for five days, but up to now, it has only been two days. We have to continue to deal with them."

"But……"

Old monk Huizhi said: "There are only these soldiers left in the army, how do you continue to deal with these Yuan troops?"

Gao Tianzong only said: "We have our own methods for this, Master, you can rest assured."

But he was telling himself in his heart that even if he couldn't do it, he had to do it.

If they hinder the Ashu army for one minute, Changle County may be breached one minute later, and the chances of being able to persist until the Yuan army arrives will be slightly higher.

Che Hongyu also said beside him: "Yes, master, you don't have to worry about us about this."

Hearing what they said, old monk Huizhi couldn't help sighing softly, "Then everyone...take care..."

He also understands that staying here with these monks who don't know martial arts is just a burden for the army.

He stood up and called the Arhat Hall host over.

At this moment, the abbot of the Arhat Hall of the True Martial Realm was already covered in blood on his armor.If it weren't for the ring scar on his head, no one would have thought that he would be a monk.

"Brother."

Arriving near, the presiding officer of the Arhat Hall gave salutes to the old monk Huizhi.

Old monk Huizhi clasped his hands together and said, "Junior brother, you should lead all the Arhat Hall monks and stay here and continue to resist the Yuan army with the generals!"

"Yes."

The host of Arhat Hall did not hesitate, and immediately agreed.

This made Gao Tianzong and the others a little embarrassed.

Gao Tianzong said: "Master, there is no need for this. We are soldiers, and it is our duty to serve the country. Let the monks escort you to Changle County!"

The old monk Huizhi said: "Although we are monks, we are also from the Song Dynasty. General Gao, don't refuse."

The presiding officer of the Arhat Hall clasped his hands together, and said, "Amitabha, the Yuan army slaughtering all living beings is a demon, and it is also our Buddhist disciples' responsibility to eliminate demons and defend the way."

The abbot of the Arhat Hall not only has amazing martial arts skills, but also has a very good Buddhist practice. At this time, there is neither sadness nor joy in his eyes, "I don't know how many soldiers have sacrificed their lives to protect my Yongquan Temple disciple from leaving the mountain. Let us Buddhist disciples put in some effort..."

Gao Tianzong and the others were silent.

In the end, the monks in the Arhat Hall of Yongquan Temple stayed behind.

After about ten minutes, old monk Huizhi left with the rest of the monks and continued westward.

After Gao Tianzong and the others reorganized their army, they did not go west, but headed south of the mountain.

Going south is because the official road is on the south side of the mountain.

They were worried that the Yuan army would continue to go to Changle County regardless of their few people. In this way, even the old monk Huizhi and others might encounter danger.

It's still raining.

There were mixed monks and soldiers in the army, all of them were wet, but their steps were extremely firm.

When they were about to reach the foot of the mountain, everyone really saw the Yuan army heading west.At this time, the rear of the Yuan army had already walked past the mountain, and only their backs could be seen.
