“Kill bi an!”

Xia ping ‘an let out a shout and gently twisted the spiked club that was being smashed by the other party with his sword. The spiked club changed its shape, and under the shocked gaze of the opposite Jin dynasty soldier, Xia ping’ an’s sword had already deftly pierced the throat of the other party, killing him in one blow. The Jin dynasty soldier’s eyes were wide open before he died, as if he was still shocked by the swordsmanship of the song Dynasty official.

At the same time, Xia Pingan’s body rushed forward like a butterfly. The long sword in his hand flashed and he stabbed out twice. Like a dragon exploring the water, another two Jin dynasty soldiers covered their throats and fell to the ground with blood spurting out of their mouths.

The song Army behind Xia ping ‘an was stunned. They did not expect Lord Yu, a civil official, to have such exquisite swordsmanship and to be able to take the lead. When they saw the Jin dynasty soldiers coming ashore, they were still a little afraid of the enemy, but they did not expect that the first one to charge at the Jin dynasty soldiers would be Xia ping’ an.

Seeing that Xia ping ‘an had killed three Jin dynasty soldiers who had come ashore in the blink of an eye, all the song Army soldiers felt a rush of hot blood rushing to their heads. No one could sit still.

brothers, even a civil official like Lord Yu can go into battle and kill the enemy. Let’s not let Lord Yu see all of us. Everyone, follow me and kill these Golden Dogs! the song Army General, Shi Jun, shouted. He was half-naked and rushed to Xia Pingan’s side with two knives in his hands. In an instant, he cut down two more Jin soldiers.

“Kill bi an!”

“Kill these golden dog Pixiu!”

“Once these Golden Dogs cross the river, our parents, brothers, and sisters will all be in trouble. Kill them!”

All the song Dynasty soldiers roared in anger. Each and every one of them was filled with great courage as they rushed to the river bank. All sorts of weapons were thrown at the Jin dynasty soldiers.

As the saying went,”one soldier bears fire, and the generals Bear Fire in a nest.” On the battlefield, the bravery of the commander and the general would directly affect the performance of the entire Army.

The song Army’s morale was high. On the other hand, the Jin soldiers were all stunned. Some of the Jin soldiers who had just come ashore were smashed by the song Army in the blink of an eye. Those who had not disembarked had a huge change in expression, hesitating whether to go down or not.

This time, the Jin soldiers followed Wanyan Liang to invade the South to report their determination to destroy song. Hundreds of thousands of Jin soldiers and their retinue, along with various tribes “miscellaneous troops, fought from Huaixi to the North bank of the Yangtze River. Along the way, they didn’t encounter any resistance. When those song officials saw the Jin soldiers arrive, they ran faster than rabbits. On the way, they saw the song Army. All of them didn’t have a commander. Their morale was low. People were in a panic. They all collapsed at the first touch. How could these Jin soldiers expect to encounter such fierce resistance when crossing the river?

As the saying went, proud soldiers were bound to lose. These Jin dynasty soldiers were arrogant and conceited. When they encountered these tough opponents, their morale collapsed in the blink of an eye. Many of them put up a symbolic resistance, then turned around and ran away one by one.

The long sword in Xia ping ‘an’s hand flickered, and more than ten Jin dynasty soldiers had fallen under his sword. When the song Army saw Xia ping’ an’s bravery, they became even more excited and transformed into fierce Tigers. Their combat strength was shocking.

However, the longsword in Xia Pingan’s hand was not of excellent quality. After exchanging two blows with a well-equipped Jin dynasty soldier, Meng an bojilie, the longsword was broken and bent. Although Xia Pingan still managed to kill the Jin dynasty soldier, Meng an bojilie (chiliarch), he could no longer use the longsword in his hand. Xia Pingan had no choice but to grab the opponent’s Wolf-tooth club. With a loud roar, he brandished the wolf-tooth club and smashed the heads of two Jin dynasty soldiers who had rushed towards him.

The song Army’s trampling sea Loach battleship was not powered by sails or oars, but wheel oars. These wheel oars were the same as the wheel oars used by the earliest steam ships in the later generations. The ship was driven by the civilian workers who stepped on the power device to drive the wheel oars to rotate forward. Without a doubt, the trampling sea Loach battleship was the most advanced ship in the world at that time.

Not only was the chariot-stepping sea Loach boat huge in size, but it was also very agile and fast on the river surface.

As soon as the Loach boat rushed to the river surface, it was like an elephant squeezing into a flock of sheep. It was invincible. As the waves surged, the Loach boat crashed into the flat-bottomed boats of the Jin soldiers and broke into pieces. One of the boats sank, and the Jin soldiers on the boats fell into the river one after another, wailing like ghosts and howling like wolves.

Apart from the collision, there were also God arm crossbows and other powerful crossbows and Thunderbolt cannons on the trekking sea Loach boat.

“Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom!”

As soon as the Thunderbolt cannon was fired, the river surface was filled with gunpowder smoke and the sound reverberated for ten miles. The few large ships of the Jin dynasty on the river were like pieces of paper. As soon as they were hit, they shattered and burned. The power of the Thunderbolt cannon covered half a mu of the river surface. The Jin dynasty soldiers on the river trembled in fear when they heard the Thunderbolt Cannon’s sound. Countless Jin dynasty soldiers drowned in the water.

Xia ping ‘an looked into the distance and saw the song Army soldiers fighting bravely on the river surface. He also saw the galloping sea Loach boat and the powerful Thunderbolt cannon. He sighed in his heart.

If it wasn’t for the fact that the great song’s imperial court was too rotten and incompetent, with the most advanced technology of this era, being able to create weapons such as the sea Loach and Thunderbolt cannon, as well as a famous general like Yue Fei, and being ranked first in GDP and international trade, the great song should have been rich and strong. How could it have been destroyed by a group of nomads on horseback?

If one were to look closely, the real cause of the great song’s destruction was not Liao, Jin, or Yuan, but the Emperor of the great song and those incompetent and corrupt dog officials. Those people were the main culprits that brought this nation into this disaster.

The battle on the river lasted from day to night. By the end of the battle, the river was filled with the debris of the Jin Kingdom’s ships and the floating corpses of the drowned.

In the evening, Xia ping ‘an received a report from his subordinate that he had found a group of defeated song Army soldiers who had escaped from the North. There were about a few thousand of them.

Xia ping ‘an immediately ordered the defeated soldiers to gather and let them and the people who participated in the river Defense raise the flags behind the mountain, beat the drums, wave the flags, and shout. They also used horses to drag the branches to run back and forth on the ground to create momentum.

The Jin dynasty soldiers on the river were already on the verge of collapse from the attacks of the song Army’s sea Loach boat and Thunderbolt cannon. The sea Loach boat was tall and big, and they could not even get close to it. Once they got close, their boats would either be crushed and sunk, or be bombarded by all kinds of crossbow arrows and Thunderbolt cannons. The casualties were endless.

Even if they could get close to the ship, their clubs wouldn’t be able to hurt it. Even if they used their crossbows to shoot at the ship, they wouldn’t be able to fight it. The song Army on the ship was looking down at them from above, and they were shooting at them from the cabin and the deck. The Jin dynasty soldiers on the flat-bottomed boats couldn’t even stand still, let alone shoot at the song Army. How could they fight? they could only be beaten.

However, those Jin dynasty soldiers didn’t dare to retreat easily because Wanyan Liang’s rule was strict. If they retreated, those taimu bojilie and Meng an bojilie would have their heads chopped off.

At this time, the Jin soldiers who were fighting on the river saw countless flags waving on the opposite mountain, the sound of drums rumbling like thunder, and the dust behind the mountain. They thought that the song reinforcements had arrived, and this was the last straw that broke the camel’s back. The Jin soldiers who were originally in the river were depressed and frightened when they saw this scene. They no longer had the will to fight and could only be defeated.

On the North Shore, Wanyan Liang looked at the defeated and wounded Jin dynasty soldiers. He flew into a rage. He picked up the horsewhip and whipped the people around him.
