Almost all of the mobile soldiers on the mountain of the Song army were concentrated on both sides of the valley mouth, and the crossbowmen used bows and crossbows, and most of them smashed the Jiaozhi people in the valley below the mountain with stones.

Learning about war in the midst of war, Xu Ping's system of having a plan in advance and a summary afterwards set by Xu Ping from the beginning of the construction of the cane sugar business has played a role.

The last time he dealt with Chen Changji, the weapons of the Song army here in Taniguchi were mainly bows and crossbows, but it was found that the effect was not ideal, but simply throwing stones to kill more. This time, from the beginning of the preparations, simple stone bullets were piled up on the hills on both sides of the valley mouth, and as long as the soldiers threw them, the soldiers who were hit by the cochin soldiers were either dead or maimed.

After a while, there were hundreds of Jiaozhi soldiers lying in Taniguchi, dead and wounded, and no one cared anymore.

The stone bullets that smashed to the ground rolled everywhere and spread a thin layer on the ground, seriously affecting the formation of the follow-up army's advance, and Taniguchi's Jiaozhi army began to be confused.

At such a price, the main force of Jiaozhi still managed to enter the valley.

Li Fengxiao has always been conceited and brave, and he personally led the team in the first charge, rushed into the valley, and saw that the front was empty, and there was only a vague outline of Nanliangzhou City a few miles away, and he couldn't help but be surprised.

Li Mingxin went back and said how tragic the battle at the valley mouth was, the arrows were all over the sky, the Great Song cavalry was vertical and horizontal, and the stone bullets rained down in the rear team, and Li Fengxiao took it for granted that there would be a fierce battle as soon as he entered the valley.

But there was nothing in the valley.

The state city in front was still a few miles away, and although the two earthen walls on both sides were as tall as city walls, they were far from each other, and even a powerful crossbow could not cover the open space in the valley.

What is Song Jun doing?

Or was it my luck that I really caught Song Jun off guard and didn't have time to complete the arrangement?

Just when Li Fengxiao was hesitating, suddenly there was a muffled sound of "knock, knock" from behind the earthen wall. With the sound, black smoke came out of several tubes of black holes that had not been noticed.

Before Li Fengxiao could think about what it was, the whistling stone bullets had already reached the front of the Jiaozhi army with the sound of breaking through the air. Swept past the military formation.

With years of experience and flexible reactions, Li Fengxiao instinctively jumped off his horse and rolled on the ground, passing under the horses of the soldiers beside him.

At this moment, the screams of the Jiaozhi army were incessant, along with the sound of flesh and bones shattering. The sound of the horses falling to the ground made even a hard-hearted person like Li Fengxiao feel a tremor in his heart.

After a round of cannons, the Jiaozhi formation was chaotic, and at this time, the Song army on both sides of the earthen wall began to release crossbows, and when the formation of the Jiaozhi army was not neat and the shield could not be protected, they cut wheat and put down countless Jiaozhi soldiers.

Li Fengxiao got up from the ground, and saw that half of his personal soldiers were dead, and he couldn't help but gasp. At this time, the artillery was inaccurate. couldn't stand the Song army's dozens of cannons shooting at one place, if Li Fengxiao hadn't reacted quickly, the first round of artillery would have taken his life, and this battle would not have been fought.

At this moment, the cannon in front of him rang out again, and Li Fengxiao was so frightened that he pulled a soldier to the ground and used the soldier's body to block himself.

This time, the shells didn't find him. But the cochin formation was completely torn apart.

Hearing that there was no movement, Li Fengxiao slammed his hand hard. Breaking the neck of the soldier in his hand, he calmly stood up from the ground, and shouted loudly: "The artillery in the valley of the Song army is too powerful, listen to my military orders, the whole army will go to the left and attack the earthen wall on the left!" After climbing the wall. Let's attack the city along the wall! ”

With the military order, the war drums sounded in the Jiaozhi array, the flags fluttered, and the scattered formation slowly became neat.

Xu Ping saw it on the top of the mountain and said to Sang Yi beside him: "It is said that Li Fengxiao is the first general in Jiaozhi." Now it looks like it's well deserved. Although I still don't know the reality of our arrangement, we really grasp the key point by attacking an earthen wall with all our might. ”

"What now? Do you want to be tall and all attacked? ”

"Can't delay, you go and let Gao Daquan and Han Daocheng each bring two thousand cavalry and take turns to attack the flanks of the Jiaozhi people. There are two points to keep in mind, one is that if the Cochin people adjust their formation in time and face the cavalry from the south instead, then they should not really attack, and they can return one mile before their formation. If they do not interrupt the attack on the earthen wall, they will first get out of the way to the flanks, let the artillery fire two rounds first, and then charge the enemy position. ”

Sang Yi promised to send a herald to pass Xu Ping's military order.

The earthen wall itself was the road, and the heralds galloped down the hill and ran directly along the earthen wall to the state city.

At this time, the sun had risen in mid-sky, and the early spring sun was warm on my body. But in this small valley, there was killing everywhere, and there was only fire and blood in the sun.

With the sound of a loud horn, the cavalry of the brigade came out from behind the state city, facing the sun, the swords and guns in their hands were glowing with cold light, and the strict lineup was shocking.

Li Fengxiaoyuan, who was a few miles away, saw that based on many years of experience in conquest, he immediately judged that it must be the cavalry brigade of the Song Army, and secretly complained in his heart.

The infantry is not impossible to deal with the cavalry, as long as the lineup is tight, the opponent does not dare to charge directly into battle, and can only slowly look for opportunities.

But the worst thing is that at this time, the Jiaozhi army faced the weakest flank of the Song cavalry, which was another matter entirely. If the cavalry rushes into formation from the flank, the result is almost only a small rout.

Looking ahead, the forward was still dozens of steps away from the earthen wall, and was overwhelmed by the dense rain of arrows of the Song army. And not far away, you can clearly see that the Song army is demolishing the small stone cannon behind the mountain and moving it to the back of the earthen wall, it is estimated that it will not be long before the Jiaozhi army will face the attack of the Song army's stone cannon.

Since the rain had stopped, the sun had been working hard, the ground had long since dried, and the cavalry of the Song army, although only advancing slowly, still brought up dust in the sky.

As the distance got closer and closer, Li Fengxiao only felt that his heartstrings were getting tighter and tighter. Gradually, the roar of cavalry stepping over the earth was heard, rolling like thunder.

Li Fengxiao didn't dare to delay any longer, and ordered loudly: "Change the formation and meet the cavalry of the Song army!" ”

The handsome flag turned, the flag shook wildly, the Jiaozhi army formation slowly rotated, and the front formation changed to the north.

As soon as Jiaozhi changed formation, there was a burst of cheers from the Song army behind the earthen wall, the bows and crossbows were fired more intensively, some small cannons had been erected, and stone bullets began to fall into the Jiaozhi army formation.

Li Fengxiao felt that his eyelids jumped, but he missed that he would face this situation, and he couldn't even send troops to attack in a hurry, so he could only let the soldiers raise their shields and resist.

Han Daocheng rushed to the front with his loyal army, and as the distance got closer and closer, he saw that the Jiaozhi army in front of him had changed formations, and the spearmen and archers were all facing him.

With a sip on the ground, Han Daocheng scolded: "These killings are quick to see the opportunity!" ”

After speaking, he saw that he had reached a place about a mile away, whistled, and said to the soldiers behind him: "Order the commanders, the left army to the right, the right army to the left, cut across from the front of the Jiaozhi formation!" ”

Li Fengxiao watched as the thousands of cavalry of the Song Army were a mile away from him, and as soon as the formation changed, the flower arrangement butterflies exchanged left and right, and then retreated!

Returned! I didn't let go of the arrow and just went back!

"Straight sissy thief! These Song Guo killed me to tease me! ”

Li Fengxiao roared angrily and looked helplessly at the white sun in the sky. (To be continued.) )
