On the river bank where Yu Min couldn't see, Mu Ying led four thousand cavalry to rush left and right in the Yuan army's formation, attacking all the Yuan army's already weakly organized units into a chaotic mess.
Reduced the pressure on the troops crossing the river.
However, the number of the Yuan army was too great. Mu Ying and his men kept killing, and they were unable to completely tear apart the Yuan army's defense line for a while.
At least there was nothing they could do about the Yuan army on the arrow tower.
Therefore, the vanguard troops still had to brave the rain of arrows and forcefully cross the Baishi River, resulting in considerable casualties.
But the soldiers of the Ming army hit the water with their oars, beat drums and shouted, their morale was high, and they were not afraid of death!
They rowed their bamboo rafts desperately and approached the shore. They used their bows and crossbows to fight back, suppressing the Yuan army's archers.
At the critical moment, the soldiers of the Ming army broke out with great fighting power. By the time the raft where Yu Min was on arrived, the comrades in front had already cleared a passage.
"Get into the water!" Wang Xiaoqi's command sounded again.
The soldiers jumped into the water without hesitation, then worked together to lift the bamboo raft, held it high above their heads, and rushed to the shore with shouts.
Bamboo rafts can withstand the rain of arrows, but they also have a more important function - the soldiers set up bamboo rafts on the trenches to pave the way to the enemy's position.
Then he jumped over the trench with a roar and rushed towards the damn arrow towers!
Yu Min also followed Wang Xiaoqi and rushed to an archery tower. Naturally, the Yuan army had soldiers guarding the tower below, and the two sides immediately fought together.
By this time, Yu Min could no longer care about fear. Qi Qianhu had told him that if he wanted to survive on the battlefield, he must not give in, let alone retreat! The brave will win when they meet on a narrow road. If you want to survive, you must be better than others.
Be more fierce and ruthless, just kill all the people who want to kill you!
He had survived the previous two battles by relying on this, so now he was even more fierce and determined. He held a shield in his left hand and a knife in his right hand. He rushed left and right with agility, and cut down several Yuan soldiers in succession!
Just as he was getting ready to kill, an enemy soldier whom he had cut down suddenly hugged his leg. Yu Min was shocked, and hurriedly struggled to break away, lowering his head and slashing the Yuan soldier on the shoulder.
Yuan Bing screamed and let go of his hand. When Yu Min put the knife away, she found that the knife was stuck in the bone seam and could not be pulled out.
Seeing this, another Yuan soldier raised his spear and stabbed him. Yu Min had no time to dodge or block, and was stunned on the spot.
At the critical moment, another shot came from the diagonal stab. The second shot came first and deflected the Yuan army's shot. Then he stabbed the Yuan army through the chest with a stab.
"Han Pi, how did I teach you this!" The person who rescued him was Wang Xiaoqi. While waving the big gun, he cursed: "Why don't you lose your knife and roll around like a lazy ass?!"
"Oh." Yu Min's face turned red, and after a fierce effort, he finally pulled out his knife and rushed forward to kill the enemy side by side with Wang Xiaoqi.
"Don't just rush and fight, be smart, otherwise the ball will die sooner or later!" Wang Xiaoqi cursed, eliminated the last enemy in front of him, then threw away the spear, pulled out the waist knife and thrust it into his back, saying in a deep voice: "Follow me
dash forward!"
Before he finished speaking, he quickly climbed up the stairs to the archery tower using his hands and feet. Yu Min quickly threw away his shield, followed his example, stuck the knife behind his back, and climbed up.
As soon as I went up, I saw Wang Xiaoqi being surrounded and beaten by several Yuan army archers...
Archers are elite infantrymen with strong muscles and powerful melee combat capabilities.
Wang Xiaoqi rushed up and chopped down one of them unprepared. When he tried to chop down the second one, he was surrounded by them.
If it weren't for the fact that he was too late to get a knife and could only hit him with the hard bow in his hand, Wang Xiaoqi would have been chopped to the ground and chopped into pieces.
Yu Min hurriedly pounced on the food and stabbed an archer in the back with his knife. This time he learned the lesson and did not draw his knife. Instead, he directly pressed against the archer's back, continued to rush forward, and hit him hard.
Another archer on the opposite side.
The man quickly took a stance and lowered his shoulders, trying to stabilize his body, but he could not withstand the momentum of the two people. He was knocked back and his back hit the railing behind him.
The Yuan army's hastily built archery tower had no quality at all. The pole broke as soon as it hit it, and the archer screamed and fell down on his back.
Yu Min hugged the dead body and patted it on the ground...
Subsequently, the Ming army continued to surge forward and killed all the remaining archers.
Only then did Yu Min have the opportunity to pull up Wang Xiaoqi, who was beaten with a bruised nose and face. Wang Xiaoqi gave him a thumbs up.
~~
As each archery tower was captured, the pressure on the troops crossing the river dropped sharply. The soldiers held bamboo rafts and poured onto the river bank one after another, rushing into the enemy's position along the road opened by the leading troops.
After establishing a firm foothold, the Ming army's offensive became more fierce and soon captured all the archery towers. Then the Ming army archers boarded the archery towers and began shooting at the Yuan army.
The Yuan army could not withstand the fierce attacks from above and below. They could only retreat steadily while asking for reinforcements.
However, the rear area has been thrown into chaos by Mu Ying's 4,000 cavalry. The soldiers cannot find the generals, and the generals cannot find soldiers. The orders cannot be conveyed at all, and no one can carry them out after they are passed on.
On the one hand, the Ming army continued to surge ashore like a tide, and on the other hand, the Yuan army on the front line was slow to see reinforcements. As time went on, the river bank defense line that Dalima had placed high hopes on was in danger.
Past experience has repeatedly proven that the more unfavorable the battle situation is, the more the Yuan army will pull its hips.
Mu Ying keenly caught the emotional changes of the Yuan army and immediately asked his subordinates to shout in Mongolian: "Dari Ma has run away, Darima has run away!"
Dalima was in the middle of the army at this time, roaring and angrily scolding his generals: "No matter what method you use, send me reinforcements quickly!"
Then I heard someone yelling that he ran away...
"Nonsense, I didn't run away." He was stunned for a moment, then he came to his senses and said angrily: "The Ming army wants to shake my military morale, tell the soldiers quickly that I am with them!"
The generals rushed out to quell the rumors, but saw that soldiers had begun to run away...
Deserters are like cockroaches. If there is a first one, there will be a second one. If there is a second one, there will be a nest. Under the powerful offensive of the Ming army, more and more Yuan troops soon dropped their weapons.
Run away.
"Come back, don't believe them, Pingzhang is still here!"
"Pingzhang said, I am with you!" the generals of the Yuan army shouted loudly.
But no one paid any attention to it. More and more deserters were running away in all directions, and even some people in the supervising team began to escape.
The so-called rumors of Dalima's escape were just the straw that broke the camel's back.
And how could it be just the straw that breaks the camel's back?
It was the Ming army that completely broke through the river bank defense line and came overwhelmingly, the thousands of cavalry who were covered in blood and repeatedly charged and killed, and the fact that even a blind man could see that the defeat was certain, that caused the Yuan army to completely collapse...
