Chapter 217 Gouge

The commander who was favored by Li Ting was Zhe Dier who led the troops stationed at the south camp gate.

Zhe Dier is a powerful leader of the Yiqiliesi tribe, and the strength he holds in his hands is stronger than that of the nominal leader of the Yiqiliesi tribe, Botu Prince Consort.

When Genghis Khan first divided the tribesmen and established the thousand-household system, Zhe Dier and the Botu son-in-law were in the same thousand households, and they were often able to issue orders, with authority over the Botu son-in-law.Later, Genghis Khan set up 95 households, and the entire Yiqi Liesi tribe was split into four, and Zhe Dier was assigned to Tuolei.

After the Battle of the Thirteen Wings, Genghis Khan led his troops to participate in five of the nine battles in which Genghis Khan unified the grassland. He is a veteran with extremely rich actual combat experience.

Since then, Genghis Khan sent troops to attack gold twice, but Zhe Dier did not participate.The main reason is that the fourth prince Tuo Lei's new Ulus, there are always all kinds of trivial matters related to the distribution of tribesmen, livestock, and pastures. As a veteran, Zhe Dier has to help the fourth prince a little.

However, for the Mongols, this is really useless behavior.

All the difficulties, in the final analysis, are due to the greed of people, and the benefits are not distributed enough.Then, as long as we do our best to fight the war, plunder the land of the Central Plains, and rob the Jurchens, Khitans, and Hans of their money and materials, wouldn't we have everything?
This year Genghis Khan attacked the Kingdom of Jin for the third time, and Zhe Dier came with Tuolei.

When he came to the Central Plains to fight, he realized that things were not as easy as he imagined.

There are too many cities in the Central Plains, and too many people.The harvest of plundering was indeed rich, but after the army penetrated deep into the interior of the Golden Kingdom, even if every battle ended in victory, it would inevitably be exhausted after a few months.

The Mongolian army began to get tired, but there were brave and good fighters among the Jin people, and they began to cause trouble for the Mongolian army.Some cities are small in scale, but they cannot be attacked in every possible way, often resulting in unexpected large-scale casualties.

During the fight last night, because of the strict order issued by the fourth prince, Zhe Dier personally led people to launch a charge and stormed the pier next to the city gate.

In the end, he took the lead in breaking through the defense of the Jin army, bringing victory to the siege for two consecutive days.But he was shot in the shoulder by a heavy arrow and suffered serious injuries.

At that time, he punched his head with murderous intent, but he didn't feel any pain, he just felt hit by something. Later, he found that there was a huge bloody mouth, and the pale bones underneath could be seen.If the direction of the arrow changes slightly, his arm will be useless.

Zhe Dier's subordinates also lost a lot.

At least two of the most combat-friendly hundred households have lost their combat effectiveness, and if they want to rebuild, it will not be successful in three to five years.Zhe Dier's favorite young man also died in battle no less than a hundred and eighty.

The fourth prince naturally saw this situation.So when he ordered all the troops to withdraw and go out to intercept the main force of the navy, he specifically asked Zhe Dier's troops to stay in the camp... This is obviously the time for Zhe Dier to plunder alone, and it is the fourth prince's secret compensation. .

For this, Zhe Dier was very grateful to the fourth prince.

The fourth prince is smart, gentle, and considerate to others, no wonder Da Khan likes him so much.Zhe Dier was also very willing to help Tuo Lei, making him, like his elder brothers, an invincible commander on the battlefield and a hero extolled by the Mongols.

But the problem is...

What's going on here?In the fort behind the camp, why did heavy armored cavalry suddenly appear like wolves and tigers?
After Zhe Dier was injured, he applied herbs specially provided by the shaman on his shoulders.The drug suppresses pain and also dulls thinking.So at this moment, Zhe Dier was a little groggy.

When all the subordinates were shouting wildly and shooting wildly with their bows and arrows, he was struggling repeatedly, where did the enemy come from?
One of his capable subordinates kept yelling: "Quickly get out! Get out! Walk out while shooting arrows!"

But Zhe Dier grabbed his subordinate's shoulder suddenly: "I can't retreat!"

"what?"

Zhe Dier opened his mouth.

He wanted to say that if he retreated from the camp, the battle of the past two days would be in vain.So many people died fighting for this camp, but he gave up easily in his own hands, what would the fourth prince Tuo Lei think?What would the other commanders think?
He also wanted to say that the fourth prince led the main force and was about to block the main force of the navy along the glue line. If we can't control Haicang Town at this time, will the fourth prince suffer from the enemy?Will the fourth prince be unhappy?
He also wanted to say, the entire thousand households have been scattered throughout the camp, hundreds of cavalry have been divided into small teams, chasing and massacring them everywhere, if they leave the camp easily, are they going to abandon their companions?
But these few ideas, have not had time to say.

From the terrified eyes of his subordinates, Zhe Dier saw the armored cavalry rushing forward in an unstoppable posture like a torrent.He turned around and saw the iron and steel, the dense forest-like spears, the iron wall-like armor, and the tall horses rushing like monsters,
The Mongolians gathered from all over the world, under the command of Zhe Dier, each drew their bows and arrows, and kept throwing arrows.So the sky brightened and then dimmed, and every time it dimmed, hundreds of arrows flew into the sky and fell down again.

But the torrent flowed, as if unimpeded at all.

Seeing that the situation was not good, there were two ten captains who yelled sharply and led their subordinates forward to block it.

Both of them are one of the few warriors under Jie Dier's subordinates. They have made many achievements by virtue of their skilled horsemanship and killing skills.

But these armored cavalry are all wearing thick armor, iron helmets and iron collars, even the greaves and shoulder guards are also made of iron.Each of them is like an iron can, and the protection is airtight.The Mongolian knight's scimitar was broken in one blow in front of this kind of iron armor, and only heavy weapons such as hammers and iron rods could be effective.

When the two armies confront each other, how can there be time to switch weapons?
They are like the little waves in the tide, stir up a little ripple, and disappear without a trace, never to be seen again.

Closer, closer.

what to do?How to deal with them?

Arrows can't be stopped when they fall; fighting with knives and guns can't be stopped.When they got closer and closer, Zhe Dier suddenly felt the long-lost fear.The Mongolian riders around him were also yelling wildly, as if this was the only way to dispel the fear in their hearts.

The Mongols are a people on horseback. They grew up on the grasslands. They learned to ride horses when they could walk. Before they learned to speak, they began to ride and hunt with their elder brothers.Because of this, they have a special feeling for the power of cavalry.

They can feel how powerful the torrent in front of them is.

This power is so great that it has already exceeded the range they can resist... There is no point in resisting.Everything that stands in the way of this torrent will be torn to pieces in an instant!
Zhe Dier shouted wildly: "Go up!"

Contrary to the shouting and roaring of the Mongols, as the cavalry approached the gate of the camp, the knights of Tiefutu became quiet.

There is no need to shout, and I can't hear clearly.

The sounds of armor leaves colliding, iron hoofs stamping on the ground, as well as the panting of men and horses filled both ears, as if they were roaring.Other than that, only the sharp sound of the bone whistle kept ringing in Li Ting's ears.

This is urging the front cavalry to charge faster and smash the enemy in front of them.

Li Ting leveled the long spear he was holding at the side, and then the iron floating map cavalry galloping alongside him also leveled the long spear, so that in front of the horses, a wall of sharp edges shone with a cold light.

Li Ting felt that his mouth was a little dry, he swallowed, and tried to make himself sit more firmly on the horse.

Li Erlang, the capital of Zhongdu, boasted every day, and people before and after claimed that he was the number one brave general of the Ding Navy.In fact, Li Ting knew in his heart that when it came to martial arts background, a character like himself who came from a local ruffian had learned a lot of airs, and in terms of real kung fu, he was slightly inferior to those fierce men who had been in the army for generations.

Fortunately, the effect of the iron floating map charge has little to do with personal martial arts.

The power of the armored cavalry depends on the overall assault. Each knight is just the simplest part in the formation of the iron floating map. The thing to do is also very simple: charge the horse and launch a stab at the enemy in front of you. , that's all.

The horse's four hooves were flying and neighing again and again.

In the next moment, the two armies collided, and people were turned on their backs.Countless gun barrels broke, countless blades collapsed, and people and horses were hit by the huge impact and flew into the air.

Li Ting, together with the entire cavalry team, rushed into the formation of the Mongols.His eyes were instantly filled with the ferocious faces of Mongolians, and then suddenly became sparse.He saw the Mongolian army's cavalry team being driven through a huge gap by Tie Futu, and saw his horse stepping over the dead, seriously wounded, and lightly wounded who were rolling and crying all over the ground.

He heard the sound of weapons colliding with each other, the sound of horses colliding with each other, and the shouting of officers or leaders at various levels, repeatedly issuing orders.

Li Ting, as the general, was too lazy to give orders.He has bright armor and rides on a tall horse, and every soldier can see him.As long as he is charging, all the soldiers will follow... Just charge as much as you want!

The spear in Li Ting's hand stabbed repeatedly, and finally snapped.

He didn't care about the severe pain of the tiger's mouth opening, he pulled out the long knife from the side of the saddle, and chopped left and right.Two Mongols were chopped off in the arms by him, and the broken arms flew high, spurting blood wildly; there were also people who stopped his beheading, and then the two horses missed the stirrups.

Li Ting continued to move forward.

He found it, it was the Mongolian commander!

He clamped the horse with all his legs, and urged the horse to sprint. Halfway through, he covered his face with his hands and blocked several arrows flying from the slanting stabs.

The knife flashed.

The skin of Zhe Dier's neck was sliced ​​open by the thick and sharp long knife, and blood burst out suddenly. The sharp blade continued to penetrate deeply, cutting through muscles, blood vessels, and tendons, and finally got slightly blocked at the bone.

However, the strength of Li Ting's arm swing and the horse's sprint were all exerted on the bones at this time, and the gray-white bones immediately shattered, and the sharp blade continued to push forward, cutting through the muscles, blood vessels, tendons and skin behind the bones.

The bearded head of thousands of households flew up, glaring at Li Ting as if full of despair and anger.
