120 Battle of Xiaoling River

And at this moment, the Jin army finally dispatched. Yongde County is located on the bank of the Xiaowei River, right between Xingzhong Province and Jinzhou. In this way, both Temujin and Mu Huali were greatly restrained by the Wanyan Chen Monk Department. You can't attack as you want anymore. Because he was a Shuhuali, because he only had a total of 20,000 horses, he was in great danger in the flanks and rear, so he had to temporarily retreat from Jinzhou to Anchang County to garrison.

Temujin didn't expect that he didn't succeed in besieging the city and sending reinforcements, but was sent by the monk Wanyan Chen, so Mu Huali was forced to retreat. Therefore, he was also very annoyed, and after consulting with the generals, it was decided to leave Borhu and Yira'er to lead 15,000 men and horses to garrison here, and confront the Jin army in Xingzhong Prefecture.

Knowing that the Mongol army had reached Yongde, Monk Wanyan Chen immediately led the army to attack without waiting for the Mongol army to gain a firm foothold, intending to give the Mongol army a head-on attack. Although the Mongol army came from afar, they saw that the Jin army took the initiative to attack, and they were hoping to fight a field battle with the Jin army. Therefore, he did not retreat from the army, and immediately ordered the veteran generals Zhu'er and Kublai to be the vanguard, Heqi'er and Belgutai as the left wing, and the Shimo brothers as the right wing, and he led Guo Baoyu and the four sons as the rear team to meet the Jin army.

On the side of the Jin army, Monk Yan Chen, Tang Guorui and Shang Jingliang led 3,000 broken arrows and 2,000 Tiefutu as the vanguard of the middle road, and Pu Atong and Shi Dingyue were the left and right teams respectively.

Strictly speaking, Monk Wanyan Chen is the chief general of the whole army, and he should sit in the rear and command the whole army to fight, rather than fighting on the front line, but this time the situation is more special, because this battle will be related to the survival of the last piece of the Jin country, and Monk Wanyan Chen also robbed the whole army before the war, and intends to personally lead the army to attack at the beginning of the war, so as to drive the morale of the whole army. Therefore, as soon as he saw the banner of the Mongolian army, Monk Wanyan Chen roared, urged his horse, and rushed out first, while Tang Guorui and Shang Jingliang were not to be left behind, and also galloped forward with him.

The soldiers of the Jin army saw that the main generals were all in the lead, and everyone was brave, each competing for the lead, and the five thousand cavalry shot at the Mongol army like lightning.

As usual, the Mongols attacked with bows and arrows. But for Tiefutu, who was heavily armoured, the lethality of the bow and arrow was not great, and the distance between the two sides quickly narrowed.

"Kill!"

With another roar from Monk Wanyan Chen, the big axe in his hand also turned into a waterfall of light, and the three Mongolian cavalrymen who rushed to the front were shot down and dismounted almost at the same time.

Then he took the lead and entered the Mongolian army formation, although immediately there were countless spears, broadswords and arrow clusters from all directions to Wanyan Chen monk stab, chop, shoot over, but Wanyan Chen monk swung a big axe, in the air a line of death lightning, as long as the Mongolian cavalry close to him, all were shot down from the war horses without exception, and finally only one empty saddle war horse ran away. Subsequently, Tang Guorui and Shang Jingliang also led the Jin army and rushed forward. For a while, they were in close contact and fought together.

Although the Mongol army was fierce and brave, it had never seen such a strong enemy general, so it was also shocked by his momentum for a while, and the attack did not slow down. At this moment, the master waved the big knife in his hand, urged the horse forward, and met the Jin army. Black and flower flags flew fiercely behind him.

The black and flower flags were originally the tribal flags of the Ulu Uti and the busy Kuti tribes who were known as the descendants of the god of war on the grassland. After the Mongols unified the steppes, the Ulu Uti and the Busy Khuti were all incorporated into the Mongols and ceased to exist, but Temujin still authorized his master to continue to use the black and flower banners as the banners of the thousand households under his jurisdiction. In recognition of the contributions made by the Ulu Uti and the Busy Kuti tribes for Mongolia.

In the face of this formidable opponent, the momentum of the Jin army's assault was also blocked, although the monk Wanyan Chen was still invincible, but the enemy rushed towards him one after another, almost endlessly, so it was difficult to rush forward for the time being.

Don't you know that the master is even more shocked in his heart, the descendants of the god of war have never been suppressed by the enemy army like this on the battlefield. The golden general led by Yong Qi is extremely brave, and it seems that only Yang Yan and his princess wife, who have seen the Song Dynasty in the past, can compare with him. However, the master is also a fierce general in the Mongolian army, so naturally he will not be frightened by Monk Wanyan Chen, so he also urged the war horse, brandished a big knife, and rushed towards Monk Wanyan Chen. When the Mongol army saw that its main general was rushing up, they also moved to the left and right.

As soon as he looked at the opponent's armor, Monk Wanyan Chen knew that this must be the general in the Mongolian army, and immediately clamped the horse's belly and attacked him. The big axe unleashed a terrible roar and slashed at the opponent's head.

The master also tightened Cui Zhanma, raised the knife with both hands, and slashed down at Wanyan Chen Zhishang. "Dang!"

The swords and axes struck each other, making a deafening loud noise.

The master only felt that his arms were sore, his mouth was about to crack, and his chest was like being hammered, and he was about to vomit blood. I couldn't help but be secretly frightened in my heart, I couldn't imagine that the other party had been killing for a long time, and still had such energy.

And Monk Wanyan Chen also felt that his blood was rolling, and he was very uncomfortable, and he couldn't imagine that this Mongolian general could block his full blow, and he couldn't help but admire it a little. But immediately he swirled the big axe, and another axe swept over.

The master couldn't dodge, so he could only parry with a knife. After blocking this blow, the master finally couldn't stand it, his throat was sweet, and a mouthful of blood spurted out. But immediately after the third axe of Monk Wanyan Chen, it was cut down again. This time, the master couldn't sit in the saddle anymore, his eyes were blurred, his body shook for a while, and the dust fell.

The main general was killed in battle, and the morale of the Mongol army could not help but fall sharply, and finally could not resist the attack of the Jin army, and retreated, even Kublai could not stop it. And Wanyan Chen monk also tried his best, and he was no longer able to fight anymore. Fortunately, his goal was also achieved, so he handed over the vanguard army to Tang Guorui and Shang Jingliang, and went to the rear to command the whole army.

And to learn the news of the defeat of the former army and the death of the general, Temujin couldn't help but be surprised, since the battle of Hongliulin, there had never been a Mongolian general killed on the battlefield, and hurriedly ordered his four sons to attack immediately, and they must block the attack of the Jin army. At the same time, he ordered the left and right flanks to attack immediately. The two sides finally engaged in full-scale fighting.

The four princes were ordered to attack, which also reinvigorated the morale of the Mongol army, and finally stopped the retreat, regained their foothold, and engaged in a fierce battle with the Jin army. But it only contained the defeat, but did not gain the slightest advantage, let alone defeat the Jin army. And the left and right wings and the Jin army were also inseparable, and they couldn't tell the winner for a while.

The strength of the two sides is roughly equal, and in terms of individual combat effectiveness, the Mongolian army is slightly superior, and this is the best field battle of the Mongolian army, according to common sense, the Mongolian army will not fight so hard. However, because of Yan Chang's death in defending the central capital, after the army retreated north, he was finally martyred, which aroused the grief and indignation of many Jin soldiers, and on the battlefield, he also turned this grief and indignation into a strong fighting spirit and released it to the fullest.

At the same time, every Jin soldier knew in his heart that if this battle was defeated, the Jin country would completely lose its last chance, the land would be occupied by the Mongol army, the property would be plundered by the Mongols, and their families, relatives and friends would become prisoners of the Mongols. Therefore, everyone also had a strong fighting spirit in their hearts, and fought desperately with the Mongolian army, fighting to the death. In addition to the advantages achieved by the Jin army on the battlefield in the early stage, the two sides have been fighting fiercely for nearly three hours, and there is no winner or loser.

Temujin did not expect that this battle would be fought like this. In his opinion, although the Jin army is not vulnerable, it will never be the opponent of the Mongol army. And now it seems that the bravery and fighting spirit of the Jin army are no longer under the Mongolian army at all. Therefore, Temujin couldn't help but wonder if he had thought about the battle situation too simply, and it might be difficult to defeat the Jin army by relying on the Mongol army alone. Even if it is the Jin army that is now retreating to Shangjing.

At this time, Guo Baoyu said: "Great Khan, withdraw the army, if we continue to fight, I am afraid it will be unfavorable to us." ”

Guo Baoyu is still very sober-minded, although the current battle situation is still evenly matched, but after all, the Mongolian army is coming from a long distance, and the Jin army is waiting for work, so if it continues to fight, I am afraid that the Mongolian army will be physically exhausted. Therefore, it is better to take advantage of the fact that the defeat is not revealed now, and quickly withdraw the army.

After Guo Baoyu's reminder, Temujin also immediately understood, although he was still a little unwilling, but he was a smart man in the end, and finally ordered the withdrawal of the army.

Because the Mongol army retreated on its own initiative, it did not leave any opportunity for the Jin army to take advantage of. And after three hours of fierce fighting, the Jin army almost reached the limit of the warp, so it was unable to pursue, and the Mongol army also took the initiative to withdraw its troops as soon as it withdrew. However, Monk Wanyan Chen still ordered the soldiers to cheer for victory. After all, it was the Mongol army that retreated, which also helped to boost the morale of the Jin army.

But judging from the results, the losses of both sides in this battle were roughly equal, and they were not small, and the number of men and horses killed in the battle exceeded 5,000, but the Jin army was backed by its own country and could be replenished, and it was much more difficult for the Mongol army to replenish. The attrition of both sides is not good for the Mongol army. Moreover, the defender of Xingzhong Prefecture, Guo Xiantoad, saw that the large army of the Mongol army had withdrawn, and also led the army out of the city to challenge the Mongol army.

Temujin was also unwilling to fight hard with the Jin army in this way, so he temporarily withdrew his troops from the Da and Xiao Ling rivers and temporarily stationed his men and horses in Jianzhou, wanting to wait for the results of the negotiations between the Zaba'er Fire Warriors and the Song army before making plans.
