Chapter 451

In the Northern Song Dynasty, the Western Army was the most capable, while in the Southern Song Dynasty, the soldiers of Jingchu were the most elite.

The army led by the Communist Party of Meng, named Zhongshun Army, was one of the tribes led by Grandpa Yue.

Kublai Khan saw that the Meng Cong formation was too stable and the equipment was very sharp. After discovering the main force of the Chu army behind the Meng Cong, Kublai Khan immediately changed his strategy and sent cavalry to bypass the Meng Cong and attack Shi Songzhi's main formation.

After the Chu army encountered the Mongolian army in Chuzhou, they did not know what was true at first and did not know that the main force of Kublai Khan was coming.

After thinking that their sneak attack plan had been discovered, the Meng Communist Party first stabilized their position and then reported to Shi Songzhi urgently.

Shi Songzhi learned that he had run into the Mongolian army and saw that the sneak attack was unsuccessful, so he simply decided to attack by force. As long as the army broke into Jiangbei, it would be considered a great achievement.

After the former army fought with the Mongolian army, the Mongolian Communist Party gradually realized that something was wrong. The Mongolian army's attacks were more powerful than the previous ones. The Zhongshun Army's crossbows were in short supply, and the Mongolian army was still attacking.

Something is wrong, the Mongolian army seems to be unable to kill them all, there are too many people.

Realizing that the main force of the Mongolian army seemed to be on the opposite side, the Mongolian Communist Party became a little anxious and quickly sent someone to report to Shi Songzhi again.

At this time, Shi Songzhi led 50,000 Chu soldiers and rushed forward, preparing to turn the surprise attack into a strong attack, kill the Yangtze River, and enter the Hezhou and Zhenzhou areas.

The 80,000 Chu soldiers who descended from the sky were not only unexpected by the Mongolian army, but also by the Song army in Lianghuai.

Shi Songzhi felt that when his 80,000 people arrived in the north of the Yangtze River, the river defense would be stabilized immediately. He would become the first person to stabilize the river defense and would definitely win the favor of the emperor.

With the river defense stabilized, the Mongolian army could not threaten Lin'an, and the war could not continue. Mongolia could only negotiate peace.

The Zhao brothers are the main war faction, and the important task of negotiating peace can only fall on him. It will be a piece of cake to replace Zheng Qingzhi and return to Lin'an to worship the prime minister.

At this time, Shi Songzhi was riding proudly on his horse, and a group of cavalry galloped up against the mighty team.

The leader of the horse immediately reined in his horse. Before the horse could stop, he rolled down and bowed, "Report! Mr. Zhizhi, Meng Tongzhi is reporting urgently. The main force of the Mongolian army is ahead!"

Shi Songzhi's heart trembled, and he reined in his horse and stood, "What? The main force of the Mongolian army, how is this possible?"

The generals around him also looked shocked. Jiang Wanzai, the infantry and cavalry commander of the Zhongshun Army, was calmer and asked, "How many enemy soldiers are there?"

Shi Songzhi came back to his senses, "Yes! How many Mongolian troops are there, and what's the situation ahead?"

The man raised his head and his face was covered with blood, and his armor was dripping with blood. I don’t know whether it was his blood or someone else’s blood. “Reporting to my husband, the Mongolian army attacked one after another, and it seemed that they were endless. According to Meng Tongzhi’s estimate, I’m afraid that

There are tens of thousands of them, and they must have hit the main force of the Mongolian army. Now our troops can only hold on to a few hills. If we are not careful, we may collapse under the impact of the Mongolian army."

After hearing this, Shi Songzhi's face turned ugly, and the generals around him shouted, "Why did we bump into the main Mongolian force? What should we do?"

When the Mongols destroyed the Jin Dynasty, they passed through the Song Dynasty. Chu soldiers had fought with them before, and they knew that the Mongolian army was powerful.

With 80,000 Chu troops, there is no problem in attacking the Mongolian partial divisions, but if they encounter the main force of the Mongolian army, it will be in doubt.

Shi Songzhi was a little flustered, Jiang Wanzai clasped his fists and said: "My lord, it is urgent, we must quickly formulate countermeasures!"

Shi Songzhi waved his hand quickly, "The Mongolian horse army is powerful! Hurry! Send the order, the army will stop! Form a stronghold on the spot!"

Several generals hurriedly clasped their fists to accept the order, and then went to deliver the military order.

Shi Songzhi waved his hand again and said with a gloomy face, "Bring me the map!"

The accompanying staff quickly took out the map. Shi Songzhi and the other generals got off their horses, squatted on the ground, spread out the map and looked at it carefully.

Shi Songzhi looked at it for a while, then frowned and said: "The situation is not very optimistic. There is no city nearby. I think the army should retreat to Haozhou quickly and enter Dingyuan City nearby."

Jiang Wanzai shook his head and pointed at the map, "Mr., it's too close. We are too close to the battlefield, only thirty miles away. The Mongolian army may have discovered us. If we retreat at this time and our army moves, if we are noticed by the Mongolian army,

We will definitely send troops to pursue us. We have mostly infantry troops, how can we outrun the Mongolian horse army? Even if we are lucky enough to enter the city by then, what will happen to the baggage and the front troops?"

Jiang Wanzai was not as famous as the Mongolian Communists in later generations, but Yu Jie was the general who persisted in resisting the Mongols until the end.

They are full of loyal people.

Shi Songzhi frowned, "Then what do you think we should do?"

Jiang Wanzai drew a circle on the map, "Mr. sir, this area is mountainous and watery, and the terrain is mainly hilly. If our army fights, there is still a chance to win, but if we retreat, we will be defeated!"

Shi Songzhi looked heavy and couldn't make up his mind for a moment.

He is here to snatch the credit. If he suffers heavy losses, not only will he have no merit, but he will also be ridiculed.

Just when he was hesitating, the Mongolian army made a decision for him, and a group of scouts rushed over in panic.

The man rolled off his horse and everyone turned around in shock. They saw the cavalry kneeling on one knee, panting like an ox and reporting urgently, "Ms. sir, two Mongolian horse armies, one on the left and one on the right, bypassed the Zhongshun army and came straight.

Come over!"

"Oops! We can't leave!" Shi Songzhi cried in his heart. What was originally a sneak attack has now turned into an encounter and bumped into the main Mongolian force.

This time of suffering!

Jiang Wanzai quickly clasped his fists and said, "Mr. Sir, we have to order all the battalions to form formations and prepare for battle immediately!"

Shi Songzhi stamped his feet, "Get ready for war!"

During the march, the army of 50,000 Chu troops was like a snake in the Changshan Mountains, stretching for more than ten miles.

If this were on a plain, the men and horses would not have time to gather in formation, and they would almost be dead if they were rushed by the horse army.

Fortunately, apart from the many hills in the prefecture, there was no place for fifty thousand horses to spread out. After a military order, the Song troops in each battalion learned that the Mongolian horse army was attacking and immediately rushed up the hills.

Some of the 50,000 Chu troops climbed up the hills, while others lined up with their backs on the hills. Their foot and cavalry were scattered, and they hurriedly took up their positions.

At this time, Shi Songzhi and others, surrounded by the Chinese army, occupied a low hill. When the yellow dust raised by the Mongolian cavalry appeared in the field of vision, the total number of Chu army's troops could barely form a formation.

The mountain wind blew by, and the military flags rustled. The soldiers of the Chu army held weapons and looked ahead with stern expressions.

At this time, the Mongolian cavalry was getting closer and closer, and soon the Chu soldiers discovered that they had encountered the largest enemy cavalry since the expedition.

Shi Songzhi stood under the banner and saw the Mongolian horse army coming across the field. The sound of horse hoofbeats shook the heaven and the earth, and the momentum was extremely terrifying.

The power of the Mongolian cavalry was so frightening that all the Chu army units did not dare to move. The soldiers could only hold on to their weapons and stay vigilant with thirsty mouths.

The Chu army remained stationary in formation, but the Mongolian cavalry who arrived did not hesitate.

While Wu Liang was galloping on the platform, he saw flags filling the sky on the hill in front of him, but he didn't take it seriously.

As the son of the Mongol warrior Subotai, Wu Lianghetai inherited his father's bravery and was also sharp enough.

The Chu army hurriedly formed a formation, but the formation was not yet stable. He did not discuss it with anyone, but decisively gave the order, "Attack and shoot at the enemy's formation!"
