Chapter seven hundred and thirty sixth crossing the river

Sun Jingting, Li Shenming and others were also standing beside Zhang Han and watching. Each of them was shaking at the beginning, and then their faces were heavy. When the baggage-behinds sang military songs, Sun Jingting burst into tears without realizing it, and Li Shenming and others also had pale faces.

Everyone's mentality was very relaxed before. No one felt that the Northern Lu had the power to fight. They felt that after the breakthrough, they would clear out the enemy. The cavalry took a detour from another river estuary. In fact, it would be impossible to take a detour from the entire army. It was just that the closest straight-line distance from the mouth of Xiaoheihe. According to Zhang Han's idea, he took a thunder attack and quickly surrounded Tumote's main force to destroy him, and took advantage of the victory to capture Qingcheng. Then forcibly crossing the river at this river estuary is inevitable.

But no one expected that the Northern Territory, with its repeated defeats, could really hit the estuary at this river, and it was not as shattered as people imagined.

Zhang Han was riding on the horse, controlling the reins with both hands. Many people were watching him. On this battlefield, he needed to maintain the best appearance and show the style that the coach should have. However, only those who were very close to him could see that Zhang Han held the reins tightly with both hands, and his knuckles were white.

No matter what, when he saw his subordinates bleeding and dying, so many people fought hard for their own and commanders, not afraid of life and death, Zhang Han felt that he could not be completely indifferent.

However, he also knew that he had to persevere no matter what. Fighting across the river at such an estuary, if he relaxed a little, he would be wasted all his efforts. At this time, both sides would have to withstand the pressure. Whoever could not withstand the first would lose!

Zhang Ziming, Fu Qingming and others' voices were hoarse, and many people were excited and burst into tears, and many people were worried. Only then did they realize that war was not a joke, but in an instant it was countless lives. Many people, like Zhang Ziming, had children in the merchant army. At this moment, every time someone died in battle in front of them, their hearts were gripped by Lao Gao, because everyone could empathize with it. Every time one died, people seemed to see their own children floating in the water.

Compared with the small-scale cavalry wars that people had imagined and seen before, and even for many soldiers in Yusheng, this battle at the mouth of the river was tragic and grandeur that they had never imagined before. Although the cavalry wars were powerful, they did not have such fierce collisions and resistance. The Mongols were useless to fully armed warriors. They would only go around in circles, defeat and escape. In this battle across the river, bows, arrows, the oldest weapon, played the greatest effect. The role of bows and arrows in the past was not as good as that of today's war.

The grand, heroic, sticky blood kept sprinkling into the river.

At this moment, even if this is a group of businessmen, people, and civilians, as long as the floating bridge is built and someone gives the order, they will strive forward and fight with the enemy!

Li Congye was the first one to rely on the regiment command. Zhang Han, Wang Changfu, Liang Xing and others sent commanders to ask him to stay behind many times. Li Congye did not obey the order and stopped moving forward. When the floating bridge was built for more than halfway, Li Congye had already arrived in the middle of the floating bridge surrounded by several guards.

The gunman was not far away in front of him, and Li Congye was surrounded by war soldiers, and several floating bridges were about to be completed. The Mongolians also knew that at the most critical moment, there were still artillery shells passing by over their heads. However, the archers by the river were too close to the mount bridge, and the artillery was completely unable to play a real role and the threat was not great. A large number of armored archers were even squeezed into the river less than twenty steps away from the mount bridge, and they stood in the water and shot arrows at the civilians and the baggage soldiers.

There were also many armored soldiers who could not bear the pressure brought by the musketeers. They began to shoot at the musketeers on the floating bridge. The arrows fell on the floating bridge, making jingling sounds. For warriors wearing iron helmets and armor, arrows were almost useless.

Countless Guds suddenly flew through the air. This was thrown by the front row of the Mongols. It was only a few dozen steps away. They began to throw out the throwing weapons in their hands.

A gunman was hit by a bone in the chest, and blood was spurted out from his mouth. Both the man and the musket fell into the river, and dense bubbles emerged from the red river water.

Some soldiers were also hit by the helmet, and the entire helmet was knocked away, and the head was knocked to sink into one part, and the person immediately fell to the ground and died.

Some people were hit on their arms and thighs, and there were thunderstorms on the entire floating bridge, and there were also thunderstorms with bones being smashed, and there were also people moaning in pain.

At this time, Li Congye suddenly stood up from the floating bridge. He was a southerner with a low head, as thin as his face, and did not have a thick beard. He did not look like a general. However, at this time, Li Congye roared and threw the gun in his hand first.

Countless war soldiers threw out their weapons at the same time. People on the south bank of the river seemed to see countless weapons flying in the air, with silver light flashing. In conjunction with the bright firelight of the muzzle when the gunner set off the musket, they almost felt the gorgeous feeling of setting off fireworks during the New Year.

"Okay!" At this time, it was impossible to call Li Congye back. Zhang Han looked at him calmly, and his excitement just now finally calmed down. Judging from the performance of Li Congye and the baggage soldiers, this army is worthy of being a tiger and wolf army he built according to his ideal state. At the critical moment, he could withstand the pressure as majestic as the sea.

At this time, Li Shenming's eyes widened. Zhang Han looked at him with his eyes. It turned out that it was Tang Wangzong and a group of Thais in front and gunners behind. The artillery pushed the cannon to the edge of the riverside and was re-fixing the cannon position!

"Fight!" Tang Wangzong was red with his eyes. The short miner burst out with courage. Once the cannon position was fixed, he ordered the attack.

The artillery 6 continued to fire. This time the distance was shortened. A large number of shells poured directly on the heads of the Mongolians on the river bank. Each shell fell on the top of the head, which was a disaster. Coupled with the attack of gunmen and warriors throwing weapons, the Mongolians finally showed signs of being unable to withstand. The archers began to retreat. The people in front wanted to get closer to avoid the shells. The shells behind them landed on the turf, and each time they took many lives. Those who landed on the open space would lift the turf for more than ten meters high, and the soil and turf splashed all over the sky. Seeing such a power, many Mongolians within the range rushed forward desperately.

Li Congye's figure appeared in Zhang Han's sight again, and finally reached a distance of within ten steps. Li Congye held a shield in his left hand and waved a knife in his right hand. He wore more than 30 kilograms of iron armor, but he jumped down from the floating bridge. When he jumped down, everyone around Zhang Han exclaimed.

Zhang Han said: "The general will dismount immediately, and he will still be able to wear a strong and hold his sharp edge and sweep away the enemy in front of him. Don't worry, Li Congye is a soldier from Jizhen. He has martial arts skills, and ordinary people will not be his opponent."

Sun Jingting kept staring at Li Congye, but at this time he said, "As a general, he took a risk. When he comes back, I will definitely scold him as the military commander and officer."

Li Shenming laughed and said, "My servant will definitely approve it and I will treat him hard. I will be detained for three days."

Everyone was joking loudly, talking about the punishment Li Chongye would punish him after he came back, just like a lonely traveler walking at night, and talking loudly was to strengthen their courage.

Zhang Han's subordinates, Wang Changfu, were experienced, and Liang Xing also rolled up from the bottom of society, with a sharp mind. Wang Yikui, Li Laibin and others were both porters, with a tough personality, brave and good at fighting. Zhou Yao was even a famous god of killing. However, at this time, the one who rushed to the forefront was Li Congye, a beautiful southerner.

Zhang Han thought to himself: "You really shouldn't behave like a person!"

When Li Congye first jumped, almost his entire body fell into the water, but he soon emerged from the water. A northern barbarian immediately shot an arrow at him. Apart from a distance, people seemed to hear a loud "don" sound. The light arrow hit Li Congye's helmet and shot his helmet slanted. However, Li Congye jumped and exposed most of his body out of the water.

The arrows shot one after another, shooting Li Congye like a hedgehog. Fortunately, the iron armor was extremely solid. The commander of the regiment was wearing the strongest mountain culture armor. The value of one armor was at least 100 taels. If you even inlaid some precious gems, you can sell it at a high price of hundreds to 100 taels.

Li Congye was instantly hit by more than a dozen arrows. Fortunately, Beilu's arrows were focused on shooting and accurate heads, but not on heavy arrows. If it were heavy arrows or armor-breaking arrows used by Beihu and the current Donglu, at such a close distance, he would definitely be able to kill him on the spot. After this round of shooting, Li Congye had already reacted, blocking the shield in his left hand at the critical point, and continued to wade forward.

Behind Li Congye, dozens of iron beast-like warriors in heavy armor jumped down. They also held shields to block the rain-like arrows.

Soon, all of these soldiers entered the shore, with only their calves not in the water. Fortunately, the river was not too deep, so the soldiers were able to stand firm by the river and began to wave their weapons to kill the Mongolian armored men on the shore.

Many archers moved away. Some armored men with weapons rushed to the river. They poked randomly with iron spears, hoping to block these soldiers who landed on the shore. Many people saw that Li Congye had an extraordinary identity. They tried their best to stab the weapons at Li Congye. However, Li Congye's movements were very fast and powerful. His shield was waving, and his long sword kept stabbing. A large gap quickly appeared in front of him. Then he kicked suddenly, and his whole body stood firmly on the shore!

Behind Li Congye, there was a roar like a tsunami-like roar!

Zhang Shixiong suddenly shouted to Zhang Han: "Sir, let me be an ordinary combat soldier. Go up the floating bridge and follow Commander Li to fight. Please!"

Zhang Han glanced at Zhang Shixiong and finally nodded.
Chapter completed!
