Iki Island, Yuan army camp, and the main tent of the central army.

"Fan Wenhu, have you been pulled out from your wings? Or are you a turtle? Is cowardice and laziness holding you back, making you unable to ride a horse like an aging shepherd?" Xin Du blamed Fan Wenhu for coming to the middle, and the meeting was an aggressive question.

He made up his mind and would report to the Khan afterwards, dismissing the surrendered general of the Song State.

Although Fan Wenhu is the commander of the Jiangnan Army, he has little face in front of Xindu and is not as good as Jin Fangqing.

"The good sect general learned that it was not the remnants of the Song State in Quanzhou that caused trouble! The Zhejiang Navy was originally going to go to war, but the remnants of the Song State rebelled in Quanzhou, which also greatly damaged the Zhejiang Navy's energy. The ship and the soldiers were not enough, so they had to replenish warships and horses. It was only too late! I would like to ask the general to atone for his sins."

Fan Wenhu said with a smile that even if he had the courage to use him, he would not dare to contradict Xindu. Xin was not only the commander of the coalition army, but also the royal family of the Golden Family.

Li Ting, deputy commander of the Jiangnan Army, also smiled and explained, "Yes, Grandmaster, the Quanzhou treacherous riots caused great turmoil in Jiangsu and Zhejiang. It took so long to miss it. Please ask Grandmaster and generals to atone for their sins!"

Seeing that Fan Wenhu and Li Ting were so obedient, Xindu no longer pursued the case.

"Hmph, I am not your concern for the time being. Next, it is your Jiangnan Army's turn to do its best. Fan, you should let me see how powerful the Southern Warriors are." Xin Duyu said coldly with sarcasm.

"That's it, that's it! I will send Jiangnan Army to the lead tomorrow. The commander just asks the order." Fan Wenhu agreed repeatedly. In order to win the importance of the Mongolian Yuan after surrendering to the Yuan Dynasty, Fan Wenhu studied Mongolian hard, so he could barely understand the Mongolian in Xindu.

The Mongolian generals here couldn't help laughing together when they heard the "Southern Warriors". It seemed that the four words "Southern Warriors" were particularly funny.

Even the Goryeo generals couldn't help but smile.

Although Fan Wenhu's old face was thick-skinned, he could not hold back when he heard the unconcealed sneering from everyone. It is true that he is a big traitor, but he is also a southerner after all.

Deputy coach Li Ting also blushed and could only smile embarrassedly.

Seeing the cowardly marshal of the Jiangnan Army, the Mongolian generals and the Goryeo generals were even more despised.

After the two armies merged, the morale of the Yuan army was greatly boosted. Xindu did not know that the Japanese Yuan army had arrived, so of course he decided to continue the strong attack.

However, he was very confident about the combat power of the Jiangnan Army. Not only him, but also other Mongolian generals, and even Goryeo generals such as Jin Fangqing, were not confident enough in the Jiangnan Army.

Don’t look at the Jiangnan Army’s 120,000 people this time. It sounds scary, but once you go to the battlefield, it is probably difficult to compare with the performance of the Goryeo Army.

However, the battle the next day immediately changed the views of the Mongolian generals and the Goryeo generals.

Fan Wenhu sent a ten thousand guards named Li Debiao to lead 8,000 Jiangnan troops to attack the Japanese stone walls. Although these 5,000 Jiangnan troops have become Yuan army for several years, they are still equipped with excellent Song army infantry armor.

This is a typical mixed infantry of the Song army. Each of them is based on most of the spearmen as the main force for the breakthrough defense, and then two sword and shield soldiers are responsible for the defense, and there is also a divine arm crossbow soldier who covers the assault behind.

Five thousand mixed infantry were arranged in an orderly manner, holding long spears like forests, and slowly pressing towards the Japanese stone wall.

On the beach behind, there were five thousand people, including two thousand archers, and another three thousand people operated hundreds of bed crossbows and stone cannon machines.

As soon as Fan Wenhu made a move, he had ten thousand Jiangnan troops. Unlike the Mongolian army that relied on horseback and shooting, although the Jiangnan army carried few war horses, it carried a large number of crossbows, stone cannons and stone bullets.

When Xindu and others saw the orderly formation of the Jiangnan Army, they immediately felt a lot of expectations. These Southern Army might be able to fight.

When the Japanese army behind the stone wall saw the Jiangnan army going into battle, they originally thought that the defeated country and surrendered army must have been forced to go into battle by the Yuan court, and the morale of the army must be weak and should be easy to deal with.

But at this time, when I saw the momentum of the Jiangnan Army, it did not look like my morale was depressed.

In fact, the morale of the Jiangnan Army is really good. Not only is it not bad, it is even very high, and the Japanese army completely thinks it is simple.

This has something to do with Fan Wenhu's request. A few days ago, Fan Wenhu reported to Kublai Khan that if he wanted to occupy the Japanese country for a long time, he had to take out part of the Japanese country's land as a reward and distributed it to the Jiangnan Army who conquered Japan. In this way, the Jiangnan Army would be grateful to the Khan's kindness and would definitely die for the court.

Kublai Khan agreed. Anyway, it doesn’t matter if it is some of the Japanese lands to the Jiangnan army. Even hunting dogs, don’t you also have to give them a bone?

Therefore, this time the Jiangnan Army came, and also brought a large number of agricultural tools for military reclamation.

The Jiangnan Army was indeed in a low morale. Most people were unwilling to serve the Tartars. If they surrendered, they also surrendered in an established manner with the generals. They were just obeying their decrees.

The reason why they continued to serve in the army was nothing more than just a matter of food. As for the debate between Chinese and foreigners and the national justice, although they did not understand at all, they could care about so many things? They were just small soldiers. What could they change?

The Empress Dowager and the official family have surrendered, so what can they do?

By the way, being a soldier can not only make you feel full, but you will not be bullied and oppressed by the Mongolian Seminary Guardian. At least it is better than the people.

Regarding military garrison, Fan Wenhu also took advantage of the topic and drew a lot of cakes, which successfully stimulated the morale of the Jiangnan Army. For example, low taxes can bring family members to the Japanese reunion and live a good life without the management of the Mongolian Seme Chief, etc.

In the eyes of most soldiers of the Jiangnan Army, it is worth their efforts to exchange their lives for some land, but they have not been able to pay their respects to the chief of the chief and impose heavy taxes.

"Kill!" The Wanhuli Debiao who was commanding the attack waved the flag, and the five thousand Jiangnan troops immediately accelerated their pace and rushed towards the stone wall with shouts.

Almost at the same time, the stone cannons, crossbows and archers, which had been ready, also began to prepare for launch to cover the five thousand people in front of them to attack.

The Japanese army behind the stone wall also shot out dense rain of arrows and shot the Jiangnan army.

With a "boom", the gun forest of Jiangnan Army and the spear forest of Japanese troops were thundering together, making a loud noise that made people's scalp. The spears of Jiangnan Army and the spears of Japanese troops were both long weapons. The Japanese army was condescending, while the infantry and man armor of Jiangnan Army was more powerful. This battle immediately became evenly matched.

With just one encounter, hundreds of Jiangnan and Japanese troops died under the spears or spears of each other. The entire front was filled with blood shooting everywhere.

The spearmen of the two armies stabbed each other, and the Japanese archers also shot the Jiangnan Army at close range, and the Jiangnan Army's divine arm archers also shot crossbow arrows at the Japanese army at close range.

In a blink of an eye, there were countless Japanese soldiers who were shot by the divine arm crossbow, and there were many Jiangnan soldiers who were shot by the Japanese longbow.

This is like queuing up and stinging against each other.

Immediately afterwards, a sharp whistle came from the air, hundreds of stone cannons and bed crossbows were fired together, and large pieces of stone bullets and gun crossbows were bombarded at the Japanese army.

"ah""

"Baga"

In an instant, the Japanese army on the stone wall seemed to have been cut off by a huge sickle. In the bloody rain, thousands of Japanese soldiers were killed and injured under this wave of attacks.

The dense Japanese army behind the wall suddenly became chaotic.

"Your Excellency Zishi is dead!" Several warriors exclaimed. Shao Erzishi, the main general of the defense line here, was hit between his chest and abdomen by a giant arrow of a small spear-like bed crossbow. Although his Domain (armor) was more sophisticated than ordinary warriors, he could not resist the bed crossbow at this distance.

When Shao Erzi was the uncle of Shao Erjingzi, he was the eldest of Shao Er family and the highest-ranking family. After he died in battle, the Japanese army suddenly became motivated, and many people even wanted to retreat involuntarily.

"kill!"

The Jiangnan Army, who was attacking the toughest, saw that the Japanese army defending the wall suffered severe damage from bed crossbows and stone cannons, and the morale of the army was greatly boosted. Taking advantage of the sudden sparse kung fu of the Japanese army on the wall, they tried hard to climb on a short ladder. The Japanese army fought back desperately to prevent the Jiangnan army from climbing the wall.

The battle situation was extremely fierce on the stone wall front, which was only a few dozen feet wide. The Jiangnan Army in the front was squeezed by the people behind and could not retreat even if they wanted to retreat. The Japanese army on the stone wall was also squeezed by the dense Japanese army behind, and they could not retreat even if they wanted to retreat.

The two sides just pinched to death through a wall.

With a "boom", the stone cannons and crossbows fired again, killing a large number of Japanese troops behind the stone wall. However, the continuous Japanese troops rushed over to fill the situation under the leadership of the Samurai family.

"Kill the chicken!" The great warriors supervised the Japanese army to fight back desperately. The Jiangnan army under the stone wall was killed and injured, but still could not capture the stone wall. Inside and outside the stone wall, they were filled with dead bodies, and both sides were completely filled with human lives.

Aren't they afraid of death?

In fact, once a person reaches this point and cannot retreat, he can only rely on a breath to hold on. Too much death will make them temporarily forget their fear. At this moment, the person becomes a killing machine, and his consciousness is almost dominated by a powerful collective fighting spirit.

And, so what if you are afraid of death? Can you live?

Later, the Jiangnan Army under the wall simply used dead bodies to mats under it, so that the stone wall, which was originally not high, was even more precarious.

With a "click", a big warrior's sharp sword cut off a Jiangnan army gun and then it didn't make much sense. The gun that had been cut off the gun head actually stabbed into his mouth that was opened because of the shouting.

"Puchi!" The big warrior fell down to the sky with the gun that pierced into his mouth.

"Your Excellency Du Jia!" The Japanese army next to him suddenly exclaimed.

The general, the commander of the warrior of the Fenghou Kingdom, Du Jiawei, was killed in battle!

Mongolian generals such as Xindu, as well as Goryeo generals such as Jin Fangqing, were all surprised to see the scene on the battlefield.

"Southern Warriors! They are really Southern Warriors!" Xindu couldn't help but praise him sincerely.

What I said about the warriors of the Southern people before was completely a satirical mockery. Where are the warriors in the southern Han people? If they are really warriors, the Song Kingdom will not perish.

But now, Xindu and others have no sarcastic expressions.

Although the ferocity of the Jiangnan Army is indeed not as good as the Mongolian soldiers, it performs better than the Goryeo soldiers. Of course, it is considered a warrior.

Moreover, anyone can see that even if the Japanese army guarded the stone wall, the Jiangnan army equipped with a large number of crossbows and stone cannons, and the Japanese army's casualties seemed to be even more severe. Obviously, if this continues, the Yuan army will soon be able to capture the stone wall.

Jin Fangqing and other Goryeo generals also had to admire that these Han people did fight better than Goryeo soldiers. Of course, since the war started, Goryeo soldiers have fought not badly.

What the Mongolian generals and Goryeo generals didn't know was that when it comes to infantry, the Song army before was not only not weak, but also very strong.

Really strong.

The Song Dynasty lacked horses and cavalry was very miserable. However, it was able to fight against the four major cavalry empires of Liao, Jin, Xixia and Yuan, and established the country for more than 300 years. What did it rely on? The main thing was to rely on the powerful infantry.

However, since cavalry is naturally the nemesis of infantry, they are always strategically passive in the face of highly mobile horse riding, and they suffer many losses. However, if the monarchs and ministers of the Song Dynasty did not value culture over military affairs, or if the Zhao official family was harder, it would be hard to say.

The main force of the Jiangnan Army, but the elite imperial guards who surrendered to the Yuan Dynasty with the Empress Dowager Xie Daoqing a few years ago, could they have weak combat power?

"The warriors of the southerners will be able to capture the stone wall soon! The troops are ready to disembark and land!" Xindu ordered.

But at this moment, the gates on both sides of the stone wall front suddenly opened!

The Japanese army's stone wall was not entirely built from a stone embankment that was ten feet tall, but there was a gate every few dozen feet, which was used to take the initiative when necessary.

The gate is taller than a stone wall and is blocked with stones, so it is more difficult to attack than a stone embankment.

Because the Japanese army has always been on the weak side of defense, they have never opened the gate to take the initiative, because it will cause greater casualties. Of course, the Yuan army hopes that the Japanese army will take the initiative, but they also know that the Japanese army will not be so stupid.

So, I didn't expect the door to be opened.

But now, the two giant doors on the left and right have suddenly been opened.

Immediately afterwards, a rumbling sound came. Then, a large number of people equipped with iron armored heavy cavalry surged out like iron streams from the two gates.

Japanese heavy cavalry!

When the stone wall was in danger, Shao Er Jingzi, who was commanding in the rear, had to dispatch the newly arrived ace, Utsunomiya Sadatsuguchi's three thousand heavy riders.
