Chapter 90
Boom~
The boulder fell, a section of the earth wall was smashed, and the dust dissipated. Cheng Huading let go of Xie Xianwen and spit out the sand.

Cheng Huading sat down and leaned against the earth wall and said: "You are the top candidate in this martial arts examination, but you are young. You should join the Fourth Army to experience, why bother to come here to eat dust."

Xie Xianwen replied: "My brother came here at the age of seventeen, so why can't I come? And most of the famous generals are born in the ranks of the soldiers, how can I be trapped like a bird in a cage?"

Although Xie Xianwen is 13 years old, he was not very competitive in this martial arts competition, so he became the top pick.

Originally, the emperor asked him to join the Fourth Army, but he had to come to the front line and wanted to come to Dongguanyi by name.

This was a loophole in the system, the emperor didn't want to make a slip of the tongue, so he had to let it go, and when he got here, Zhang Shijie asked him to follow Cheng Huading.

For exercise, of course you have to come to the front line.

Within a few words, a group of civilians rushed over, carried the boulder into the gap, and filled the gap with shovels.

When Xie Xianwen was about to go to help, Cheng Huading held him back and said, "Everyone performs his duties. We are just preparing for the attack of the bandit army, so we cannot use up our physical strength."

Xie Xianwen nodded and followed Cheng Huading to look outside.

3000 yuan troops were waiting in formation, and a large group of civilians were busy preparing to return artillery.

This thing is extremely powerful and can cause damage as long as it hits it. However, it is launched slowly and requires many hands to operate.

In a quarter of an hour, the earth wall was about to be repaired halfway, and the harsh whistle sounded, and everyone scattered.

huh~
Cheng Huading hurriedly looked up and saw ten black dots coming from the sky. When he found that they were not facing him, he stood still.

Xie Xianwen wanted to run away, but when he saw that Big Brother was not moving, he held it back.

Boom~
Boulders fell, dust flew, and screams could be heard vaguely.

"Someone got out of the way too late." Cheng Huading sighed.

Xie Xianwen asked: "How does brother know that the boulder will not fall?"

"Learned from him." Cheng Huading pointed to Dutou not far away and said: "Sun Ce, a veteran of Yangzhou, the Sun Ce of the Three Kingdoms, is used to being beaten."

Sun Ce noticed Cheng Huading pointing at him and waved lazily.

"I have been with him for more than a month, and I have benefited a lot. You may wish to ask for more advice when you have time. The other Yangzhou soldiers have their own strengths, so don't miss this opportunity." Cheng Huading continued.

After a hundred battles, there will be something good. The Yangzhou soldiers are not only the backbone of the army, but also Zhang Shijie's confidence. Otherwise, it would be really difficult for a group of new soldiers to defend Dongguanyi.

Outside, Boyan looked at him for a while and sighed: "I haven't seen you for half a year. I can't believe that the person opposite is Privy Zhang."

Lu Wenhuan continued: "The little emperor is good at deceiving people, so good generals are willing to use their heart and soldiers are willing to fight to the death."

Basically, my mood is different.

In the past, soldiers had to eat food, and the court did not give them enough food and wages. Of course, the soldiers were unwilling to die in service. After all, there were too few like Erzhang.

Nowadays, a lot of taxes are exempted, and everyone is willing to do whatever it takes to protect their small family.

Zhang Shijie was also observing in Dongguan Post. Seeing that the Yuan army was heavily guarded, he gave up the plan of sending troops to destroy the returning artillery.

So, so be it.

The Yuan army was not in a hurry to attack and only used trebuchets to consume them, and the Song army was not afraid.

Not to mention that the trebuchet is not durable, but the huge boulders have to be collected from the mountains and dug into a certain size. In fact, the consumption is not small.

In the evening, the Yuan army withdrew its troops and returned to the camp. Boyan launched a leisurely bombardment. Outside Shengxian County, the Yuan army also ended its day's siege and withdrew its troops.

Yu Wengang watched the Yuan army slowly retreat, and couldn't help but vomit blood and cursed: "The straight mother-in-law only uses the common people as her mouth."

Zhu Huandao said: "When I was in Yangzhou, the Tartar dogs used to drive the people to attack the city. We had no choice but to kill them. Otherwise, the city would be destroyed and people would die, and we would lose our family and the country."

"Yu Tong." Yu Wengang turned around and called: "Go and collect the body quickly."

"This is my own business, just go and rest." Lin Jingxi walked over, followed by a large group of civilians.

There are many things to do. Cleaning up corpses and treating the wounded is only the most basic work. You also need to prepare wood and stones, repair the damaged arrow shelter, and prepare sand and soil to extinguish the fire.

Fortunately, the people of Shengxian County had already been ravaged by the Yuan army once, and no longer wanted to experience that feeling, so they tried their best.

In fact, the moat should be dug again, but the Yuan army filled up an entire ditch with more than 1 civilians. It was not possible to dig it secretly, so they had to give up.

In a short while, corpses were piled up under the city, and a handful of kerosene was poured on the fire and thrown on top. They all smelled of burning.

The corpses were burned until midnight, and the civilians followed the hanging basket back to the city. At the end of the night, the east city gate opened, and Zhu Huan led five hundred strong soldiers out and quietly walked into the night.Holding the piece of wood in his mouth, holding the sword and gun tightly, holding on to the quiver, he walked eastward along the Cao'e River for three miles, and then turned to the south.

In order to avoid the Yuan army's probing horses, it took an hour and a half to detour fifteen miles and finally entered a forest behind the Yuan army's camp.

Yu Tong asked quietly: "Control, I can't go up."

Zhu Huan said: "Rest for a quarter of an hour, eat and drink enough, and go out."

So, there was only the sound of chewing and swallowing in the forest.

After eating and drinking, Zhu Huan stood up, raised his knife and ran towards the Yuan army camp.

The entire army followed and soon entered the range of the sentry tower. As soon as the Yuan army on guard opened their mouths, an arrow flew towards them, and their shouts turned into screams.

"Come here!" Timur suddenly jumped up and asked, "Why is there such a cry?"

"Southern soldiers attack the camp~Southern soldiers attack the camp~"

"Meet the enemy~"

"Don't panic, come with me to fight!"

There was so much noise that the Yuan army ignored the armor, grabbed their weapons, got out of the tent, and faced the Song army.

Zhu Huan chopped down a Yuan soldier with one blow, kicked the brazier onto the tent, and shouted: "The front team rushes to kill, the back team sets fire, fight out of the front camp!"

It is not easy.

By going around to the back camp, one can avoid the Yuan army's probing horses, but the people stationed here are Timur's own men and horses, all Mongolian soldiers, who are not only brave but also quick to react.

As soon as they rushed in, almost all Yuan soldiers left the camp and greeted them spontaneously.

Zhu Huan had already prepared in his mind. He only raised and chopped the sword like a machine, without caring about anything else.

Yu Tong held up his iron gun to protect the right side, but the soldiers on the left changed one after another.

Timur came out of the Chinese army's tent. Hearing the shouts and the clash of weapons from behind, the advance was slow. He roughly estimated the situation and ordered: "Come here, prepare to engage in battle."

Before the order was sent out, only fires were seen rising from the front camp, and countless shouts and shouts quickly spread to the left camp.

"Brothers, the Tartar dogs don't treat me as human beings, and now it's time to take revenge!" Hu Feng raised his knife and shouted.

"Reverse~Reverse~" Yang Liu immediately agreed.

"Hu Feng, how dare you!" The commander of the battalion came over and shouted: "I treat you well on weekdays...ah~"

Before Qian Fu could finish his words, Hu Feng fired his crossbow and hit him in the face.

Hu Feng yelled again: "Brothers, take over Master Wang and kill the Tartar dog for revenge!"

"Revenge~" the new vassal who got the upper hand shouted.

"Fight with me~" Hu Feng rushed towards the Chinese army camp.

While rushing and shouting, new auxiliary troops continued to gather along the way. When they reached the junction of the two battalions, there were 2000 people following them.

At this time, a group of northern Han soldiers from Zuoying came forward and immediately killed them.

Before Timur could figure out where to suppress it, he heard a loud bang coming from the left camp.

"Brothers, the response is here~" Zhu Huan refreshed and started killing again.

The civilians mutinied, the newly attached troops rebelled, and he was surrounded by enemies on three sides. Timur had no choice but to gather his troops and fight while retreating. When he exited the camp, he saw that there were only more than [-] troops in his own army and more than [-] Han troops in the north, more than half of which were lost.

"Retreat, go back to Zhuji!" Timur gritted his teeth and said.

I thought that when he was 20 years old, he succeeded his father as a member of the Ten Thousand Households. After more than ten years of fighting, he had never suffered such a big loss.

However, the enemy's situation was unclear, and the entire army was discouraged and had to retreat.

In the camp, Zhu Huan, who was covered in blood, killed a Yuan soldier again and shouted happily.

I remember that when he was in Yangzhou, he went to battle with Jiang Cai many times. He killed many enemy soldiers and never won a single victory. It was not as happy as this time.
