316. The decisive battle in Guangxi (2)

All the generals of the Yuan army realized that this was a good opportunity to make military achievements, so they worked extra hard.

The generals under Boyan and Yesuer also competed, wanting to break through the Song army's formation first and win the first merit.

Although the two chief and deputy marshals were helping each other at this time, the generals under their command still wanted to be more and more superior. Furthermore, it is still difficult to say whether the two marshals could maintain their current state by destroying Song. The contributions they made in the battle to destroy Song will also affect their status in the court.

Yesuer may not care about her status and even wants to keep a low profile, but the generals under his command may not think so.

No matter which dynasty it is, it is inevitable that the ministers will be divided into factions. The emperor is also happy to see such a situation, because the emperor's art is a technique of balance. Yesuer can be said to be involuntarily, and her status can be said to have reached the extreme that she can bear. However, the generals under her who want to be promoted, but they still have to push her up.

As for whether Kublai Khan's suspicion was caused by his high prestige, with the vision of these generals, he naturally could not think of this.

The Yuan army's rush to lead naturally increased the pressure on the Song army.

Miao Youli, Jin Hao, Liu Zijun and others had already galloped around the defensive formation several times, almost all of them were covered in blood.

However, the Yuan army was still scrambling to the forefront, but the offensive did not ease at all.

Even if there are more than 30,000 soldiers in the Song army, even if there are firearms, under the heavy impact of nearly 150,000 Yuan army, it is like duckweed floating in the wind, and there is a crisis of destruction at any time.

"What is that?"

At this moment, someone finally noticed the hot air balloons flying in groups from the sky.

Many people in the Yuan army and Song army were looking up and showing doubts.

But the ordinary soldiers naturally didn't know what this was. After a little surprised, they went back to the fight.

When Liu Zijun and others saw it, they were filled with joy. They all knew that these hot air balloons were the emperor's new weapons.

At this moment, everyone couldn't help but feel confident.

Although there are not many hot air balloons, the new weapons developed by Zhao Dongting have never disappointed them.

They already had a blind admiration for Zhao Dongting. When the hot air balloon arrived, they felt that this battle was inevitable.

Even if the number of Yuan troops was far greater than that of them.

Yue Peng and Su Quandang were in the sky. When they saw the Yuan army everywhere below, their faces were not very good.

The more than 200 hot air balloons carry only a limited number of sky-booming thunders. They were a little worried about whether these sky-booming thunders could help the Song army below open their way out.

Of course, now is not the time to hesitate.

After pondering for a moment, Su Quandang ordered the flag soldiers to say, "I will notify General Yue and help our army open the road to the south!"

The flag soldiers took the order and immediately waved the red flag and blew a few more flag words.

When Yue Peng saw it, he shouted loudly to the back: "Brothers, let these Yuan thieves taste the power of the sky-bombing thunder."

The soldiers next to him waved the red flag a few times to the back.

The soldiers on the hot air balloon behind saw the flag and began to pick up the sky-burning thunder from the hanging basket and throw it down.

At a height of hundreds of meters, the sky thunder fell into the Yuan army formation located south of the Song army like rain.

There were about 40,000 Yuan army formations that completely blocked the Song army's retreat, all of which were soldiers under Boyan.

When Boyan and Yesuer set up a defense circle, Yang Fan led 50,000 troops to guard the western front of Tengzhou, and Toheer led 50,000 troops to guard the northern front. Boyan had 100,000 troops divided into two units. Mengtuo led 50,000 troops to take Cenxi first, and then chased Xiujiang Town. The remaining 50,000 set out from Wuzhou and slowly surrounded the west, and finally surrounded the Song army in Rongjiang and Huanghuajiang Delta. They also gathered on the road where the Song army retreated south.

At present, except for the 40,000 troops in Wuzhou City, Boyan and Yesuer's subordinates can be said to have almost all been involved in the battle.

After the thunders hit the ground, they exploded in the Yuan army formation.

This immediately caused a little panic in the Yuan army formation. Because these soldiers were in the army, they did not expect any disaster to come from the sky.

Some soldiers were still talking to the robes next to them, and suddenly a thunder hit the head, and then they also blew up many soldiers around them to the point of blood.

Countless Yuan soldiers looked up and looked at the hot air balloons, and finally showed a look of extreme surprise in their eyes.

They naturally did not expect that this would be the Yuan army of the Song army.

How did Song Jun invent this thing?

Some generals watched their soldiers being bombed and fled in scattered ways, and their formation was in chaos, so anxious that they jumped straight, but they were helpless.

Before it was their turn to attack the Song army formation, the formation was in chaos. How could we fight next?

In this era, wars are extremely fatal if they are chaotic.

It can be said that it is not difficult for 20,000 soldiers with neat formations to defeat 50,000 scattered soldiers.

These generals had to roar repeatedly, trying to stabilize their soldiers. But at the critical moment of life and death, who would still care about obeying the general's orders?

More and more Yuan soldiers ran away with their heads in their arms, watching the sky-bang thunder fall on their heads, and then ran away in a hurry.

The infantry was fine, but the horse army was even more chaotic.

The frightened war horses were not controlled at all and rushed around in the formation, causing the originally neat formation to fall over instantly.

In just a few minutes, Yue Peng and Su Quan were swinging in the air and could clearly see signs of chaos in the Yuan army formation.

The Yuan army in front was still fighting bravely, but behind them were in chaos.

At this time, Miao Youli, Jin Hao and others naturally expected the appearance of the fighter plane, and more than ten commanders hurriedly gathered in the middle of the circular defense array.

Even the calm Miao Youli looked happy at this time, "The Emperor's reinforcements have disrupted the Yuan army's position. Will we break through now?"

Jiang Xiu, the commander of the Tianman Army, responded in an interest: "I don't think we should hesitate at this time, we should break through immediately. I am willing to lead the army as the vanguard."

Miao Youli nodded, "That general leads his army and horses to cut off the rear for you."

Liu Zijun said, "General Miao, let me cut off the rear!"

"this……"

Miao Youli hesitated a little.

It is obviously not a good job to cut off the queen. It can be seen from the battle in Wuzhou that Tianshang, Tianyong, Tianfu, and Tiangui four armies were cut off. Which one was not severely damaged?

Liu Zijun rushed to cut off the rear, which could be said to have put himself in danger.

The other generals did not take the initiative to ask for this, only he did this, which was enough to show how loyal he was to the Song Dynasty.

Seeing Miao Youli hesitating, Liu Zijun said again: "My Tianxiong Army is complete, and our army should be cut off from the rear."

Yes, among the 15th Army of the Southern Song Dynasty, only Liu Zijun's Tianyong Army still maintains a complete ten thousand-man system.

When Miao Youli saw Liu Zijun say this, he finally nodded, "That's fine. If this battle is successful, we should ask for credit for General Liu."

The other Jiang Xiu, Lu Yu, Ge Xiuhong and others all looked at Liu Zijun with admiration.

It takes courage to break the back.

The situation in the Southern Song Dynasty is now in jeopardy, so whether it is Chinese officials in the court or military generals, they are quite united and virtuous.

Everyone hurriedly discussed a few sentences, and then left.

The thunder was still exploding, but not much of it, the Song army's circular formation slowly changed.

Jiang Xiu, commander of the Tianman Army, and Lu Yu, commander of the Tianying Army, each led about 7,000 people to form a leading force and took the lead in launching a counterattack against the Yuan army.

The circular formation turned into a sharp-headed formation, like a sharp knife, and suddenly penetrated into the soldiers charging in front of the Yuan army.

This caught the Yuan army off guard.

On the bank of the river, Yang Fan and Tohoer stand on the commanding heights on the Rongjiang and Huanghua Rivers respectively.

As the chief and deputy generals, they did not lead the army to charge themselves, but instead commanded the overall situation behind them.

Seeing the Song army changing formations, Yang Fan's reaction was actually a little faster than Tohore, and immediately realized the Song army's plan.

His face was slightly dark, and he shouted to the messenger beside him: "Beat the drum, and the whole army will advance!"

He presented the siege tactics, and he was the least willing to see the Song army break through. Because in that way, his vast military achievements would be gone.

Around him, the sound of drums rang out first.

Immediately following, there was also a drum sound in the central army formation of the Huanghua River side of the distance.

He was not stupid either. He saw that the Song army wanted to break through. The entire army pressed forward, undoubtedly trying to completely stick to the Song army and prevent the Song army from withdrawing.

Nowadays, it is impossible for a general who is able to be a commander-level general in the military to be a fool.
