Chapter 1144: Surprise Attack on Changlin (1)
If any masters were willing to form a suicide squad, with their skills, they might be able to break the gap on the Song army's defense line. Unfortunately, he ordered these people not to be moved.
Guigu Academy is Guigu Academy, and Pojun Academy is Pojun Academy. In Dali, it is equivalent to two completely different yamen with equal status.
Although Wang Zigan is the chief general, he cannot force these masters of the Pojun Academy.
The sound of gold sounds in the army.
The Dali soldiers had long been looking forward to hearing this sound, and they retreated down the mountain like a tide.
This battle against the Song Camp has continued until now, and they have paid a lot of unnecessary casualties.
In the military camp, a general led his way to Liu Hongyi, who was holding a telescope, and said excitedly: "Chief, the Dali army has withdrawn. Should we pursue it?"
Liu Hongyi looked at the hot air balloons of the Dali Army in the sky and shook his head, "The soldiers are all tired, don't chase them."
He is actually afraid of these hot air balloons.
Although fighting out of the camp at this time will definitely cause heavy casualties to the Dali Army. But if the Dali Army fought to the death, the Song army would probably pay a considerable price with the help of hot air balloons.
Liu Hongyi was reluctant to fight to the death like this.
Because in his opinion, the soldiers of the Song Dynasty were much more precious than those of the Dali army.
"oh!"
The general was a little embarrassed and disappointed, but he stopped saying anything and ran away again.
The Dali Army went down the hillside under the cover of the hot air balloon in the air, and then headed towards the west.
Shocking cheers broke out in the Great Song Dynasty military camp.
"We won!"
"We won again!"
Such victory is undoubtedly very exciting for these garrison troops and the Qiongzhou troops.
Because this was their first time fighting with the Dali soldiers. Moreover, they turned defeat into victory after being attacked by surprise.
The little sadness in the army was washed away by the cheers.
It was not until Liu Hongyi ordered the battlefield to start cleaning and sorting out the body for the robes that the atmosphere in the army became a little sad.
Many once familiar faces have become eternal past in this battle.
More and more corpses were piled up.
The bodies of Dali soldiers were piled up into more than ten corpse mountains.
Some of these military strokes were worn by armor, and their armor was stripped off. With the mining technology of this era, metal was a scarce resource.
The infantry in the Song Dynasty suffered little losses.
But the cavalry losses are a bit distressing.
More than 10,000 cavalry blocked more than three times the enemy's army and fell into a heavy siege, losing nearly 4,000 yuan.
Although this loss is normal compared to the time they have resisted the Dali cavalry for so long, it still makes the generals feel distressed.
The one who suffered the most was Feitian Camp.
The two armies had a total of 200 hot air balloons, which lost nearly half.
Of course, the Dali Army's hot air balloons were blown up and shot down more, and even more than half of them were probably over. But this still makes people feel distressed.
Kumano's body was also found.
He had a sword wound on his throat, and his whole body was almost trampled to death. If his face had not been downward when he died, it would have been impossible to recognize him again.
This ambitious Miao King finally couldn't last until the moment he became the lord of the entire Miao Xinjiang.
Perhaps, this is fate.
It's also God's will.
After Hong Wutian and others burned his body, they collected the ashes and decided to take them back to Changsha.
After all, although Kumano is cold-blooded and cold, he has indeed put a lot of efforts into the Song Dynasty.
This can offset his previous sin of Gu's love for free.
After Liu Hongyi asked the soldiers to collect all the waist cards of the dead robes, he went to the corpse mountain to deliver letters to the dead soldiers.
All the generals and soldiers surrounded them. When the flames rose, they all silently took off their tassels or felt hats on their heads.
Everything is silent.
Only the sad breath lingers in the rain and fog.
These soldiers who died were all good, and they were all warriors of the Song Dynasty.
In the Dali army heading towards Hengshan Village on the official road, the sad atmosphere was naturally much stronger than the hillside.
Someone was crying.
Some people are sad and angry.
In this battle, their 50,000 soldiers left the city, and nearly half of them were lost. Many of them naturally had a close relationship with these surviving soldiers.
They are all flesh and blood, and they have feelings.
At this moment, it is hard to say that there are already people in the army who are quite dissatisfied with Wang Zigan and other generals.
This is a very normal thing.
Someone was whispering.
However, as the chief general, Wang Zigan looked surprisingly calm. It seemed that he didn't care about such a large casualty at all.
He also didn't take the morale of the extremely sluggish army to heart.
Of course, his expression fell into the eyes of others, so he thought he was just sad.
The hillside is blazing.
The rain and mist are filled with rain, as if there are dead souls crying and lingering.
"Soldiers, remember today! Remember these brave brothers who sacrificed their lives! Their blood debts need to be paid to the enemy's lives!"
After more than ten piles of flames gradually extinguished, Liu Hongyi stood among the crowd and said such words loudly.
"kill!"
"kill!"
"kill!"
The soldiers around him shouted loudly.
This shout seemed to dissipate the rain and mist that spread in the air.
On Jinghu North Road, there is also spring rain here. The world seems to be shrouded in misty rain all day long.
On the official roads outside Changlin County, there are people with family members walking, either heading west to Dangyang County or heading south to Jiangling Prefecture.
Liu Tong, the commander of the Changlin Guard Army, led less than two thousand defenders to escort the officials of Changlin County, and were also on his way south.
However, the Changde Prefecture Garrison led by Wen Qi was missing.
They all lie on the cock ridge.
Gongjiling is hundreds of meters above sea level, with undulating mountains and dense vegetation. It is no longer a problem to hide tens of thousands of people.
It was not until Su Quandang and Liu Zaiyuan led Tiangang and the two armies of Tianli arrived at the foot of Gongjiling that Wen Qi led several generals out of the mountains.
He directly said to Su Quandang and asked, "Su Shuai, what's wrong?"
At this moment, they were all covered in rain and looked very wet.
Su Quandang even had water drops on his eyelashes, but there was a smile on his lips, saying, "The Yuan army does not seem to be planning to pursue us, but is to occupy Changlin County."
Wen started to move, "Then are we going to counterattack Changlin County now?"
"No."
Su Quandang shook his head and said, "Maybe our movements are still under the surveillance of the Yuan army. If we want to counterattack Changlin, we still need to continue to confuse them."
