Before arriving in Gaoyou County, Li Yun immediately discussed with other battalion commanders and believed that the Mongolian army attacking Gaoyou was far away from their large troops, and the number was probably not large. It was just enough for the Song army equipped with a large number of artillery to fight.

When he arrived outside Gaoyou County, he immediately saw a large number of Mongolian troops driving the people of the Song Dynasty outside the city to transport food to them. Judging from the number, the Mongolian army must have as many as two or three thousand. Seeing this situation of war, a sentence came to Li Yun's mind when he heard during class, "The soldiers are in constant force, and the water is in constant form."

The teacher in class repeatedly emphasized that most battles are completely different from those in paper like textbooks. Soldiers who are determined to join the army for their lifelong career should understand this. The reason why they learn to face combat in large quantities is that they can have more measures to take according to different situations in the actual wars in the subsequent real wars.

Li Yun found that he had completed the suddenness of the battle. However, the Mongolian army, the people of the Song Dynasty and a large amount of food mixed together. If the artillery fire was used to bombard the mixed areas indiscriminately, in addition to having no effect, it would also cause a large number of meaningless casualties.

After making a quick judgment, Li Yun immediately ordered the first wave of four battalions to prepare for a fight with the Mongolian army.

As the commander-in-chief of this operation, Li Yun, the other battalion commanders, must also accept this order. Fortunately, everyone has practiced the battle training many times. After ordering, each unit will start to act according to the techniques they have mastered before.

These Mongolian troops were ordered to collect military rations. The reason why they chose Gaoyou was that Marshal A Shu hoped to steal all the food near Yangzhou. The Song army in Haizhou wanted to provide supplies to Yangzhou, but they could not collect grain on the spot. Seeing the Song army suddenly coming, these Mongolian troops were also shocked. The Mongolian troops quickly rectified their formation and prepared to face the enemy. The civilians took the opportunity to flee quickly. After the Mongolian army was rectified, Li Yun's battalion had already been arranged opposite the Mongolian army.

Even though I heard that the Song army now seemed to be very capable and soon recovered from peace, the Mongolian generals looked at the Song army front without any depth, but still could not equate the front line composed of several rows of soldiers with their strong combat power. This depth was too shallow. As long as a little offensive method was used to cut off the front line, the Mongolian army could kill the Song army that had lost command at will.

The Song army had training from the Song army, and the Mongolian army also had training from the Mongolian army. Since we believed that victory was within our reach, the Mongolian generals immediately issued an offensive order.

Li Yun's troops were south of the Mongolian army, and his reason for choosing this was very simple. Since the Mongolian army came from the south, according to human habits, they would instinctively launch an attack along the familiar road. Seeing that the Mongolian army was indeed rushing towards him, the young battalion commander was nervous and mixed with joy.

There is a problem when fighting with Mongolia. The Mongolian army always runs fast and is keen on movement. The paper armor of the Song army has very good protection against long-range weapons, but it is not suitable for the troops to march in a marching manner because of its heavy feeling. The Mongolian army can fight if it can beat it, and run if it can't. Even if the Song army can defeat it, it can't catch up with it in paper armor. It can win but has not beheaded.

Now the Mongolian army is rushing towards the Song army, and the paper armor and the hat play an excellent protective role against the Mongolian army's bows and arrows. Basically, no one is injured in the rain of arrows before the Mongolian archers assault. Because the Song army's front is very thin, when the Mongolian army advances, the archers behind are afraid of accidentally hurting their own people, so they dare not shoot archers again.

At this time, it was the Song army's turn to start the attack. First, the two-pound cannon was baptized by the Mongolian army at a close distance of more than ten meters, causing hundreds of charge Mongolian troops to scream like ghosts and wolves. Then the musketeers used four-stage strikes to fire at the Mongolian infantry. The Song army's front looked thin, but it was not something that the Mongolian army could do with flesh and blood.

Li Yun, who was observing the situation in the front row, found that the ballistics of the musket were really too unstable. For example, the Mongolian army raising flag in the front, theoretically the one who was walking in the front should have been hit early. What happened in reality was completely different from the idea. The Mongolian army raising flag was as if protected by heaven, and all four-wheeled bullets hurt him at all. When the Mongolian army began to retreat, the Song army musket troops were always shooting quickly, and the Qingqi still had to carry the flag with all its tail and retreat behind other Mongolian soldiers. No matter how the Mongolian army in front, back and left and right around him were shot, the most conspicuous Qingqi was fine. It was not until he threw down the flag in his hand when he was running away that the Mongolian army completely disappeared from Li Yun's sight.

In addition to the wonders on this battlefield, Li Yun began to doubt whether there was any problem with the tactics he wanted to increase artillery. If Li Yun was not in his hands, one of the artillery companies could be replaced with a musketeer, he could use three musketeers instead of two musketeers to attack the Mongolian army. At least from now on, in the situation of fighting, the musketeers' role is more effective than artillery.

The correspondent ran over and reported loudly to Li Yun on the noisy battlefield: "Bail Commander Li, the troops on both sides of the east and west are in place, and are now preparing to encircle the Mongolian army."

Even if two battalions were left to protect food, Li Yun could use eight battalions of eight battalions to deal with these two or three thousand Mongolian troops. This is why Li Yun learned to face knowledge with a critical learning attitude. The military academy talked about the entire content of Sun Tzu's Art of War, Sun Wu believed that "ten times will surround them, five times will attack them, and multiple times will be divided." However, the firearms troops will not use their troops like this in the face of the cold weapon troops. According to the results of various calculations of the school, Li Yun hopes to completely eliminate these two or three thousand Mongolian troops through the surround and annihilation war.

Because he could not observe condescendingly, Li Yun could only trust his comrades. He ordered to calm down and wait for the news of the encirclement to be completed.

At this moment, the formation of the Mongolian army opposite also changed a lot. The Mongolian army who fled back were in chaos. The Mongolian cavalry went to the front row and looked at their appearance, and they wanted to charge.

Li Yun was overjoyed, and he immediately shouted: "Tell everyone that the Mongolians will be surrounded by our troops. As long as they kill their cavalry, none of these Mongolians will escape! Do it well and kill them all!"

Most people who shouted loudly, now the troops are trained to communicate. The words of battalion commander Li Yun were summarized as shorter by the battalion staff, "We surrounded the Mongolians, do it well, and kill them all!"

"We surrounded the Mongolians, do it well, and kill them all!"

"We surrounded the Mongolians, do it well, and kill them all!"

The battalion staff told the company commander that the company commander told the platoon leader that the commanders and soldiers of each platoon passed the message to their comrades next to them. Even though Zhao Jiaren's efforts to "same voice" had not yet fully achieved results, at least most of the commanders and soldiers knew the situation at this time, and everyone felt that they could accurately position themselves and felt much more at ease.

The Mongolian army's reaction was fast. As soon as the Song army completed the adjustment in the battle, their cavalry began to charge.

Hundreds of war horses rushed forward like dark clouds, looking really full of momentum. Li Yun sighed: "What a pity! What a pity!" The horse meat can taste better after being marinated with spices and treated with suitable cooking methods, but for the Song army who lacks horses, a living horse is more valuable. Even the worst mare can be used to grow mules?

With a little emotion, Li Yun ordered, "Fire!"

The same situation as the infantry was encountered, shotgun attacked the Mongolian cavalry like a locust. Then the musketeers kept firing the high-ranking cavalry. The Mongolian cavalry's horses had to face the thorn formations composed of spears. The high-speed moving species such as horses were afraid of sharp objects, and they would instinctively stop running when they encountered these. This was a program written in the DNA, and it was not something that could be ignored by training. Therefore, the heavy cavalry had to be blocked, and the horses had to be blindfolded so that they could not react to the spear formation.

The Mongolian army had no such conditions at this time. Their horses were already very frightened by the sound of cannons, and they were even more reluctant to go up against the spear formation.

The horses that lost control stayed in front of the spear formation, which caused a more tragic result. The musketeers had more time to open fire on these people. The killing and injury became more tragic.

The battle lasted for an hour, and the four battalions of the Song army completed a complete encirclement. The musketeers and the spearmen carried out a centripetal encirclement shoulder to shoulder. The Mongolian army that did not surrender was killed, and the surrendered were not dead for the time being. Li Yun was preparing to take them to parade the streets of Yangzhou City to increase the belief in victory for the military and civilians in Yangzhou City.

The civilians also gathered up at this time, and suddenly someone came out of the civilians' team and shouted while trying to approach Li Yun. The guards next to him immediately stopped the person. The man shouted even harder: "Brother Li, it's me, it's Zhu Hongwu!"

Li Yun had an impression of Zhu Hongwu. The young man was the only one who had seen Li Yun who chose the best food to repay the debts owed to Zhao Jiaren and Zhao Taiwei. Even with this attitude, Li Yun agreed with Zhu Hongwu very much.

After walking over and pulling Zhu Hongwu up from the ground, Li Yun asked, "How come Brother Zhu is here? At least you were not injured by the Mongolian army."

This is a heartfelt greeting. Li Yun did not expect that Zhu Hongwu couldn't help crying after hearing this. Li Yun was surprised. He never felt that he was a person who could show his strength by virtue of eloquence. When he met his favorite girl, Li Yun was speechless and could not speak at all. He was very much looking forward to his true eloquence.

Zhu Hongwu didn't keep crying. He said while crying: "Brother Li, the Mongolians came to our house to grab food. I was driven here by them! My Zhu family also had an insider, and we were cheated to death!"
