Chapter 167 The Giant Trebuchet

After discussing with several brothers, Zhao Xiaojun mobilized troops to encircle Jincheng on the one hand, and sent elite cavalry to march into Hongchiling on the other hand.

He wanted to throw some more spurs on the enemy's escape and set up obstacles to make Kuoduo come once and not want to come again.

Gongchang Mansion has been fighting for two days, and Kuoduan has already mastered the battlefield information, but Wang Sixian and other remnants of the Jin Kingdom have already been determined and have completely returned to the Song Dynasty. This is one of them.

The Minjiang Army had powerful cavalry and went out of Qinghai to occupy his rear base. It was very likely that it had already fought roundaboutly, which was the second.

The third most serious point is that once the new army is mixed with infantry and cavalry, the Mongolian army cannot chew at all and is crushing from east to west.

Now, it is wiser to not want anything and run away with light clothes, otherwise you will be finished if you are wrapped in dumplings.

But he was very unwilling to give up and hesitated for a long time. After hearing the explosion of the sky cannon, he ordered the entire line to retreat.

It was too late at this time, and Jincheng could already hear the trembling cannon sound of the Minjiang New Army.

I originally wanted to demolish the city and that the future would be more grazing, so I had to wait for the next time.

Kuoduan packed his bags and ran away quickly.

However, Comrade Kuoduan's hesitation delayed the precious half-day.

After learning that Xining had easily obtained the battle, Wang Hanchen immediately divided 10,000 troops and turned around and killed them back.

I don’t want anything, so I just run away with light clothes because I have to compare speed now, which one can bring so many things to increase the burden?

However, he had just run on the road for a while and soon came to Malai to report in front of him. Monkling Ling found that the Song army was intercepted. This was the most unexpected thing for him.

The Monkling Ridge is Hongchiling, and the Song army was called Hongchiling, which was a place name that was found in the Eastern Jin Dynasty. The Mongolian army was called Monkling Ridge, which means a bare mountain and belongs to the throat of the Hexi Corridor.

The terrain here is high, with no tall trees. In the later years, it is said that it is high cold and lacks oxygen and has difficulty walking.

But it is the only way to Hexi.

Kuoduan was suspicious. Could it be that the Song army had detoured to Monkling so quickly?

It's impossible, he's very clear-headed.

After hesitating for a moment, Kuoduan ordered an attack and had to escape.

Although the Song army was waiting for work, they had just arrived and had a small number of people, with less than two thousand men, building simple fortifications on the hill to stop the enemy.

The Song army did not block the road in half, but only built a sniper position on one hillside. Obviously, they still knew that their strength was not good. They did not completely block the enemy's return.

The Mongolian army rushed up the mountain and it was difficult and slow to climb up. It became a living target, with countless casualties and injuries.

If you want to escape desperately, the arrows shot from the mountain will definitely bite the flesh.

Kuoduan regretted it. When he was singing a folk song, he trotted all the way to Jincheng. He never thought that he would be defeated. He should put down a group of people here and leave a way out for himself.

How could he want to lose so quickly at that time?

The defender came to report that the Song army's troops had already caught up.

He was so arrogant that he rushed over and was ordered to survive. Even if he was alive, he would be considered a victory. The Song army on the mountain saw it clearly, and after most of the Mongolian army passed, the gate was completely blocked.

Kuoduan ran forward all the way, with fewer and fewer people around him, and he became more and more energetic.

This time, the old Wang family is so arrogant this time. Everyone tear their faces apart and chops them with a big knife. Don’t think about mentioning the friendship that year.

Most of Cao Youliang's cavalry were from the border and were deeply harmed by the Mongolian army. Now that he has the opportunity to take revenge, all of them have red eyes.

In addition, Wang Hanchen's ten thousand iron cavalry, everyone running in front was carrying three-eyed magic guns, but the guns were about to bite the flesh.

Kuoduan was busy rushing to the road, so naturally he didn't dare to stop to attack the cities and rob the villages, and there was no supply.

Although some small villages were built, the problem was that the food was not enough for people to eat, and the horse gradually couldn't run away.

In the larger market town, Zhao Xiaojun had already asked the Xinjun and the soldiers of the small tribe to sneak over and launch a blind date to guard it.

The village gate is closed properly. He can't get in and will not sell it to him.

He had no choice but to force his lent to the temples along the way.

He fled all the way to Wuwei, but found that there was no Song army within 50 miles in front, back, left and right, and the Song army that pursued him was still a hundred miles away.

He felt that he had been trapped again, and the enemy might not have deviated from Jiayuguan at all. The letter was lying to him.

Kuoduan was so angry that the Han people were so bad that they didn’t tell the truth at all.

He irritably kicked the stones on his feet one by one, and hit the two personal guards, but finally kicked a big stone. He was so painful that he hugged his feet and jumped desperately.

Now Wuwei is in front of you, can you fight?

If you want to fight, you still have nearly 20,000 people under your command. Although you are a little embarrassed to escape, are you still elite soldiers?

If you don’t fight, more than half of them may starve to death when you go back empty-handed.

So Kuoduan decided to fight Wuwei, at least he had to grab some food before leaving.

Even though the leader here belongs to the State of Song, his subordinates have climbed over the Wuwei city wall, which is a piece of cake.

Anyway, he is going back, so he doesn't need to bring back the siege equipment he brought, so he will use it all here.

He asked his men to make rice, have a good meal, and then have a rest after eating, and then take a night of rest. He took the city in one go.

At this time, the new army's detours were at least two days away from Wuwei, and this was calculated based on the speed of the forced marching.

Cavalry is not a magic weapon, horses stepping on flying swallows are just an image of handicraft.

Although Wuwei was disrepaired and demolished by the Mongolian army, the city wall was still in its foundation. In addition, Zhao Xiaobing did not want Kuoduan, the demolition team leader, to take over there, or to demolish the city wall, so it was rare to repair it.

So he asked Xiaojun to send people to protect him at the beginning of the battle.

The 16th Brigade Special Forces of the New Army in the city were not much better. They also penetrated and were tired from running inside, so they had only been resting for less than two days.

However, with the support of the people, I had two meals of hot tea and hot rice, which was obviously much more enjoyable than Kuoduan. The new army soldiers were already familiar with the people and were guarding the city gates and some low and weak areas. A large number of young and strong people in the city were mobilized to join the city guard.

So, at first, Kuoduan only saw the Jin people's clothing, and thought it was just the local people and the remnants of the Jin Kingdom defending the city.

These places were originally where his Mongolian cavalry galloped at will, so he became much more courageous.

It was dawn, and the Mongolian army started fighting without saying a word, and even set up the only three remaining Hui cannons, which were giant catapults to attack the city.

But when his stone thrower was set up, he had just fired two guns and had not had time to calibrate, and the right to speak was immediately cancelled by the mortar in the city.

The Mongolian army understood what weapon was hit, and knew that the Minjiang Army was in the city and immediately fell into chaos.

However, seeing that there were not many new troops on the city wall, it was judged that it should be the small intertwined troops of the Song army, and soon organized an attack.
