902 Chapter 902 Yu Yunwen

“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.

This Mace was indeed very useful and powerful. It didn’t require any fancy techniques. As long as one had brute force, this Mace could be almost invincible on the battlefield. Many of the charging Jin dynasty soldiers were armed with weapons such as maces and Pikes. There were not many Jin dynasty soldiers who were armed with sabers or swords.

On the other hand-the song Army was more armed with swords and Spears. Although the song Army soldiers were wearing armor, they were all wearing leather jackets on their heads. Those leather jackets had almost no protection against blunt weapons such as maces. No wonder the song Army had the scepter-gold had a Walking Horse, while the song Army had a machete. Jin had Jin Wu technique, song had Marshal Yue; Gold had the mace, and song had the skull.

Xia ping ‘an once again smashed a Jin dynasty soldier’s chest, causing him to cave in and spit out blood. Xia ping’ an was already surrounded by a large group of song Army soldiers.

Lord Yu, please don’t take any risks. Just stay here and give orders. Leave this to us, Xuanji. Zhang Zhen, the general of the song Army, led a group of song soldiers to Xia ping ‘an’s side. He put up a few shields around Xia ping’ an and had a few guards protect him.

Seeing that the morale of the song Army had been completely boosted by him, Xia Pingan did not insist on charging into the battlefield. Instead, under the protection of the soldiers and shields around him, he retreated from the river and began to command.

After returning to the villa that night, Xia Pingan struck while the iron was hot. In the underground secret room, he started to merge the realm beads that he had exchanged for at the banquet.

This realm Pearl was used for the stone-mining battle. As soon as Xia Pingan entered the realm Pearl, he found himself in the position of Yu Yunwen, the commander of the stone-mining battle.

At this time, Yu Yunwen was not a high-ranking general of the Southern Song Dynasty. He was just a Secretary of the Secretariat and an advisor to the Jianghuai military. Yu Yunwen’s mission was to urge li xianzhong to take up his post and to represent the song Dynasty in the stone mining war to comfort the Army. Logically speaking, Yu Yunwen had no right to command the stone mining war. However, the fate of the Southern Song Dynasty was still hanging on. God could not bear to see the Southern Song Dynasty destroyed and the Chinese people suffer. Before li xianzhong took over the position of the king, Yu Yunwen became the main character and commander of the stone mining battle. He led the 18000 soldiers of the King who had retreated to the stone mining battle and extended the luck of the Southern Song Dynasty for another 100 years.

These days, Xia ping ‘an had been mining stones. What she did was the same as Yu Yunwen. She rewarded the Army, boosted morale, and actively prepared for war. She organized the local people to participate in supporting the song Army and the Jiang defense. She mobilized everyone to fight to the death with the Jin soldiers in the mining.

Not counting the people, the song Army had 18000 people. On the other side, the main force of the Jin army led by Emperor Wanyan Liang of the Jin Kingdom had more than 180000 people. Besides the main force, the Jin army also had all kinds of retinue. There were also hundreds of thousands of miscellaneous troops.

Even if they knew the history, no one would be able to do better than Yu Yunwen. Yu Yunwen had created a war miracle in mining stones.

In a war like this, the only thing Xia ping ‘an could do was to follow history and at the same time, at the beginning of the battle, take the lead to kill the enemy and completely boost the morale of the song Army and soldiers.

When the song Army saw that their commander was going all out, there was no longer any support. Each of them was like a tiger out of the cage. The Jin dynasty soldiers who had just come ashore were annihilated in the blink of an eye, and the rest were all defeated.

On the other side of the river, Emperor Wanyan Liang of the Jin Kingdom, who saw the defeat in the first battle, was furious. He directly killed a Tiemu bujilie and a few Meng an bujilie. Then, he ordered all the ships to press forward.

In an instant, thousands of ships of all sizes gathered by the Jin Kingdom on the Yangtze River. They were all rushing towards the South with a great momentum. Before the Jin soldiers arrived, the big ships along the river and the song warships had basically escaped from the north of the river to the south of the river. The ships that the Jin soldiers could gather to cross the river were mostly flat-bottomed small boats. There were not many big ships.

Seeing that all the ships of the Jin dynasty Army had been set out and covered the river, Xia Pingan, who was sitting at the command post, asked the people around him to send out flag signals, so that the song Army’s warships, which had been waiting for a long time on the East and West banks and behind the mountains, would immediately set out.

As soon as the song Army’s flag signal was issued and the horn was blown, the song Army’s chariot-stepping sea Loach warship immediately charged forward.

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.
