Wuma Huacai's strategic deployment, according to the meaning of old general Zhao, biased towards the Mongolian army who was about to arrive at the closed dock, because the mountain on the left side of the closed dock was a dead end, and only three-way containment was needed to catch turtles in a jar.
Therefore, Wu Mahua divided Zhao Jiajun into three.
With 50000 troops, Zhao Xingwen led 60000 troops to encircle the enemy from behind and cut off his retreat. Old general Zhao was responsible for the heavy task and led 80000 troops to directly press in and try to destroy them.
Originally, the plan went smoothly. The Mongolian army marched at full speed and wanted to reach the closed dock as soon as possible. Zhao Jiajun did not dare to enter the city, but the Mongolian army did not have this concern.
When the dock was closed, the Scouts of the Mongolian army first encountered the trap buried by Wu Mahua early in the morning. The scouts who had not returned for a long time aroused the vigilance of the Mongolian army and sent a small team of troops to investigate. Although the team was in danger, one person sent a signal of danger on the occasion of death, which attracted the attention of the Mongolian army commander Bayar.
Bayar is surrounded by a think tank named Bu rigude.
He has studied the battles between the Mongols and the state of Xiao over the years, especially the wars in which Gu Shiqing and Xia Weimou participated.
He keenly judged that it was not appropriate to venture forward at this time, which prevented the Mongolian army from moving forward. He even proposed to retreat to the last city KANGYI, take root and defend the city, and wait for Shi Jiajun to come.
If there is any danger to wade, leave it to their own people in the state of Xiao. Retreating is the best way for the Mongols to preserve their combat power. It doesn't matter if they have to close the dock all the way.
It is also because of the decision of Bu riguide that the trap of Wuma Huacai has not been brought into full play, although it has benefited.
And because Bayar listened to the suggestions of Bu rigude, Zhao Xingwen had to appear in advance to prevent the Mongolian army from retreating, and the old general Zhao had to wave his army.
However, Wu Mahua, who had originally planned to wait until the Mongolian army forward came under attack, saw that the horns of the other two routes had sounded and the smoke had risen, so he had to lead the army to avoid the trap he had laid and pursue.
According to the plan, at the time of the war, the vanguard of the Mongolian army had already been hurt and suffered from the enemy. Then, General Zhao was leading the army, and the battle had gained the upper hand in terms of morale and military strength.
However, due to the retreat of Bu RI Gude, Zhao Xingwen did not want to miss the opportunity. At present, the two armies meet in advance, but General Zhao did not take the lead.
In addition, the Mongolian army timely attacked Zhao Xingwen's troops and horses. If there were not great pressure from old general Zhao on the flank, the broken team would have been unable to carry it.
However, once the war starts, neither side has a way back.
Wu Mahua saw through the idea of the Mongolian army. If they were allowed to smoothly return to the KANGYI city and occupy the advantage of guarding the city, they only need to spend Shi Jiajun to counter attack.
Even if Bu RI Gude didn't know Wu Ma Huacai's mind at first, he looked at the attack on three sides, and Zhao Jiajun came fiercely. Now he knows that this is not a feint, but a real heart of annihilation.
If there is no way out, the situation of the Mongolian army will be in jeopardy once the Zhao family army forms a contraction trend.
However, although Zhao Xingwen led only 60000 troops, the elite army of the Mongolian army failed to make a surprise attack after several attempts, and the army could not press it with all its strength. From time to time, the direction and flanks on the other side of the fortress suddenly stabbed the middle strength of the Mongolian Army, which made the Mongolian army very annoyed.
In the military account after nightfall, bu rigude, who was still thinking hard about Countermeasures in front of the sand table, suddenly had a plan.
Attached to Bayar's side whispered a few words. Bayar's eyes were shining. Then he sent a messenger to the Mongolian army left in KANGYI city.
Spring is chilly and cool.
China, in KANGYI City, received the order of Bayar and rushed to Zhao Xingwen's rear camp overnight with a team of men and horses.
Originally, the people and horses of China belt carried pine oil and wanted to sprinkle it into the Zhao family army according to the plan. However, the Zhao family army on duty was extremely strict in defense and didn't give a chance at all.
Chi na spared half a circle and found that he couldn't get in at all, and didn't dare to disturb the army. Finally, he had to blow the overpowering drug one by one in the tent closest to the periphery.
Unexpectedly, before the outermost row was finished, a tight whistle suddenly sounded in the tent of the first room.
Something went wrong in Chi na, which alerted Zhao Jiajun. In a hurry, the rest of the tent didn't dare to make any more ideas. He quickly ordered his subordinates to kick the drum containing turpentine to the tent with the whistle, quickly throw down a fire and beat the horse and withdraw.
Bu RI Gude naturally hoped to burn the army led by Zhao Xingwen, but he also always knew that the Zhao family army had strict discipline and it was slim to take advantage of it.
Therefore, he specially instructed that he could not find a chance, so he just needed to light a fire in a circle of tents outside.
As long as it can cause riots, so that their Mongolian army can break through the siege immediately.
Chi na had prepared enough turpentine, but at last, due to the whistle, they were all thrown into a tent. The fire suddenly burst into the sky. Zhao Jiajun was alerted by the tight whistle. He had already looked for a voice to check. Suddenly, he saw the fire all over the sky, so he quickly sent someone to put out the fire.
Fortunately, the fire mainly gathered in the outermost tent. Although it was not easy to put out due to many fire oils, it did not harm other places.
The soldiers in the nearby tents around the tent were still in a coma because they were also blown by Chi na.
On the other side, the Mongolian army, who was already ready, saw the chaos in the Zhao family barracks and took the opportunity to make a surprise attack in an attempt to rush out of a way.
Zhao Xingwen, who should have stood up to command the battle, was missing. Deputy general Lei song came on as a substitute in the face of danger and vowed to resist the Mongolian army's raid to the death.
Fortunately, the tight whistle timely reminded Zhao Jiajun that they were ready for war while looking for the sound.
Also let Chi na have no time to blow more smoke into the surrounding tents, avoiding the loss of more combat effectiveness of Zhao's army.
At the same time, the warning also reminded the soldiers on the side of old general Zhao. Although the sudden outbreak of the first World War damaged the Zhao family army a lot, it finally resisted the breakthrough offensive.
The Mongolian army gradually retreated, and Zhao Jiajun also began to count the disabled.
The outermost tent had been burned and was finally put out, but the soldiers inside were burned into charred bodies.
At this time, the fruitless sentry came to report that Zhao Xingwen's last place last night seemed to be the burning tent.
At that time, he comforted the soldiers all the way. According to the soldiers who had seen him one by one, no one saw him. He came out of the tent.
Lei song panicked. He knew that Zhao Xingwen's left shoulder had been injured by a long gun and had not been fully recovered. He quickly asked people to look at the burnt body one by one.
And there was a charred corpse. Although the burned face was blurred and the whole body was charred into leather shape, it could still be detected that there was an injury on the left shoulde
