Starting with Jin Yong's martial arts

() The four of them discussed in the room for a day, and they all knew that the method Lin Heng gave was good, but too many people died in this method, so the two could not make a final decision.

There was no other way, Lin Heng could only settle for the next best thing, let Guo Jing, Qigong and others first recruit and train troops, and transfer troops to the front line to make certain arrangements.However, he still urged the two of them to make up their minds quickly, otherwise it would be too late when the Mongolian army attacked.

The next day, Guo Jing and Hong Qigong explained the matter of recruiting soldiers, but they scratched their hair in worry.During the period, they also asked Huang Rong, Lu Youjiao and others, but they couldn't come up with any good solutions.This battle is a head-to-head battle, even if you don't want to, it's not okay.

If nothing else, just talk about the 30 Mongolian army, how do you stop it?

If you rely on the towns alone, you won't be able to stop them at all. More importantly, the more than [-] towns on the front line have just been recovered. If someone repeats it, isn't it sending food?Only by hitting hard once first can everyone's confidence be strengthened.

Of course, Lin Heng also has other ways, that is to give up the town and retreat to the Song Dynasty.It's just that this method doesn't work at all in this era, and after passing Xiangyang, the mainland is flat. With the soldiers of the Song Dynasty, how could it be possible to stop the Mongolian iron cavalry?

So after much deliberation, only this desperate method is usable, usable, and effective.

On the third day, Hong Qigong and Guo Jing finally made a decision. They adopted Lin Heng's method, because they also knew that there was no way to do it, and although this method would kill and injure the Song people who looked at it, but at the same time, it would also It can severely damage the Mongolian army, so that they can no longer come and go at will.

Once the determination is made, it is natural to gather the army.With the two of them in person, the 1 regular army in Xiangyang City immediately assembled, and more than 7000 recruits were assembled.After several people agreed, [-] veterans were left to guard the city and take on the task of training other recruits. The remaining [-] people were heading to the front.At the same time, Guo Jing also sent out generals, so that the guards in all towns gathered [-] to [-] old and new mixed arms and rushed to the front line to gather.

More than a month later, about 13 Song troops assembled at the predetermined location.The densely packed military camp stretched for more than ten miles, and countless heads kept moving in the camp.

Seeing that the army was assembled, Guo Jing immediately dispatched the second general, that is, recruits and veterans were separated, and the recruits followed Lin Heng's arrangement to dig traps, while the veterans practiced formation.After the traps were dug, those new recruits also joined the training. Guo Jing used the method of bringing the new with the old, and divided the new recruits into various camps, and familiarized the veterans with the army's tactics.

Soon, the Mongolian army came.

The 30 Mongolian army is even more spectacular than the Song army. The first one is the 20 cavalry, and teams of galloping horses come, which greatly shocked the Song army.Afterwards, the [-] infantry chanted chant, and the powerful momentum silenced the Song army.

When all the Mongolian troops were assembled, Mongolian Great Khan Mengge decided to give the Song Army a blow, and the Song Army on the opposite side was really not in his eyes.He had already received news that the so-called [-] army was simply a mob.Therefore, shortly after the Mongolian army stopped, the [-] Mongolian cavalry moved.They pressed towards the Song Dynasty army like a black cloud.

"One hundred thousand iron cavalry is really spectacular!" Before the army, Lin Heng sighed, and said to Guo Jing beside him: "Brother Guo, let the pikemen come forward!"

"Okay!" Guo Jing nodded, and immediately waved the formation flag in his hand.Behind them, [-] spearmen came out in a uniform order.Under the leadership of a general of the Song Army, they slowly advanced about [-] steps, and the army also retreated a certain distance under the command of Guo Jing.

"kill!"

Hundreds of thousands of people shouted to kill at the same time, the scene was really shocking.However, the three thousand Mongolian cavalry who had just rushed to the front of the ten thousand spearmen fell down one by one before they could swing the scimitar in their hands.Taking advantage of this opportunity, the pikemen quickly took two steps forward, and then rows of pikes stabbed out in unison, taking away the lives of the Mongolian soldiers who came forward.

"Everyone be careful, there is a ditch ahead!"

Lin Heng's first trap was a deep ditch across the continent.This ditch is one meter long and two meters deep, and there are bamboo snatches underneath, killing people.However, in order to effectively attack the Mongolian army, he did not set out the trap, but covered it with a layer of cloth, covered it with loess, and let the pikemen stand outside the trap.When the Mongolian iron cavalry rushed forward and fell into the hook, those who survived were killed immediately.

This hook won't cost the lives of many Mongolian cavalry, because the road is not wide enough for the cavalry to look at, but counting carefully, this time the trap took at least two thousand Mongolian lives.

Two-thirds of the iron cavalry who charged at the beginning died, and the others immediately retreated quickly, and the army following behind also stopped immediately.The galloping cavalry stopped suddenly, and this visual difference was really shocking.At the same time, Lin Heng, Hong Qigong, Guo Jing, Huang Rong and everyone had to praise: "What a strong army!"

Although the Mongolian iron cavalry stopped for a while, they rushed up again immediately, because the two thousand dead bodies and horse corpses had paved the way for them.This time, they rushed over directly.

Seeing the leaping iron cavalry, the frontline soldiers of the spear team immediately moved a few points to the sides, and the people hidden in the queue rushed forward.If you look carefully, every five of them held up a huge stick. The stick was as thick as half a person and four or five meters long.Facing the leaping cavalry, the soldiers holding the big stick moved forward to block the road, and those cavalry were also blocked by the big stick.Taking advantage of this opportunity, other pikemen shot again and attacked and killed the Mongolian cavalry.

This is Lin Heng's second move.

Everyone knows that pikemen can restrain cavalry to a certain extent. Song Jiang has many pikemen, but it is unrealistic for them to restrain Mongolian cavalry.Therefore, Lin Heng asked people to cut down many big trees, and used the trees as guns to directly withstand the leaping horses with the combined strength of the people.In this way, not only the cavalry was blocked from the pikemen, and they were saved, but also other pikemen could instantly attack and kill some Mongolian cavalry.

It can be said that in order to kill the vital force of the Mongolian iron cavalry, Lin Heng frantically tried to find a way.

The Mongolian army is not stupid. At first they thought of smashing the pikemen of the Song army, but now that they have been blocked twice, they naturally have to find a way.For the Song army, breaking this formation means allowing the infantry archers to step forward, but it doesn't need to do this for the Mongolian iron arrows, because they are all very good at riding shovels.No, after being blocked again, the cavalry general behind immediately shouted: "Shoot with a bow and arrow!"

Seeing the Mongolian cavalry doing this, the general of the Song army immediately waved the flag, and the soldiers below blew their horns, and they retreated quickly.It's just that the Mongols moved very quickly, a round of flying arrows shot down, and some people died when they sent them off.Moreover, when the Mongols saw the Song people retreating, they immediately patted their horses and chased after them, and were about to shoot arrows while chasing them. Then they had just chased dozens of steps, and the Mongolian cavalry in front fell to the ground again, and the Mongolian cavalry in front fell into the ground again. into Lin Heng's trap.

This trap is the same as the first one, the difference is that the cloth carrying the loess has become a strong oilcloth, and both ends are also tied with ropes.When the Song army retreated and the Mongolian army caught up, the Song army guarding the rope cut off the rope to stop the Mongols from chasing, so that the Song army could return smoothly.

Sure enough, this trick was useful. Seeing that the iron cavalry in front fell into the trap of the Song people again, the iron cavalry behind stopped immediately and stopped chasing.They could only watch Song Jun retreating slowly to the rear.

"Hero Guo, we have killed and wounded more than 500 Mongols this time around, and we have achieved the planned goal." The leader of the team came to Guo Jing and the other four as soon as he returned, and reported.

Guo Jing nodded and asked, "How many people have we lost?"

"I counted just now. About 1000 people died in the front, and more than 500 people were injured." Song Jiang looked a little pale, but he really had to be happy.One thousand and five to three thousand and five!With a ratio of more than one to two, this was a big victory for Song Jun.

"Very good, you go down." Guo Jing nodded, and said to Lin Heng beside him, "Brother Lin, the first time we did better than expected."

Lin Heng laughed irrefutably, and said, "Brother Guo, don't be careless. This time, the Mongols were unprepared and wanted to give us a blow. Now, seeing our preparations, they might not be so impulsive again. Now. I think, the Mongolian infantry will play next. We should also let the Broadsword team play."
