Chapter 117 Recapturing Fu City

Yang Jin's generals saw that the Song army outside the city only numbered ten thousand men. I have thirty thousand troops.

The advantage is mine!

Okay! Fuck him to death!

Yang Jin sent out 20,000 troops.

And these people are all wearing armor.

These armors were captured from Fucheng, and there were also axes, iron bones, swords, spears, etc., and even thunderbolts.

However, Yang Jin is currently planning to have a field battle with Yue Fei, and Zhentian Lei is of little use.

After all, Zhentian Lei does not have a fuse, so it cannot really be like the grenades of later generations.

Yue Fei and others were overjoyed when they saw the city gate opened.

Dozens of people in the vanguard immediately turned their horses, dragged Yang Zhong, who was crippled, and withdrew to the main force behind him.

As soon as Yue Fei came back, he ordered his people to beat drums, put on armor, and form arrays.

In the army brought out by Yue Fei, there were only 2,000 men with heavy armor, and the rest were all leather armor.

But that's enough. These people are different from the Forbidden Army in the past. These are soldiers trained by Zongze himself and selected to give Yue Fei some military merit when he went north.

In orthodox history, it was Zongze who discovered Yue Fei and gave him the opportunity to show his talents.

Moreover, under Zhao Ning's operation, the logistics supplies were sufficient, and under Zong Ze's rectification, Daming Prefecture's military discipline was as strict as a mountain.

It can be judged from the proficiency of their armor-wearing movements that they have gone through countless trainings.

"Archers in formation!" Yue Fei shouted loudly.

The archers in leather armor quickly and neatly moved to the front, behind the forward heavy infantry.

Zhang Xian said: "Yue Dutong, the opponent has heavy armor, and the archers may..."

Yue Fei was riding on his horse, inspecting the troops while speaking concisely and concisely: "The opponent lacks battlefield experience. When he sees the bow and arrow coming, he will dodge, destroy the opponent's formation, and then charge."

Zhang Xian was immediately convinced. Yue Fei's mind turned too fast before the battle. This operation, which seemed to go against military common sense, actually had deep thinking on his mind.

"All the archers behind come forward!"

The troops in the middle quickly began to change formations. This is the time to test the mobility of an army and the command of the commander.

The so-called immovable as a mountain and as moving as thunder means elite!

Yue Fei quickly shuttled among the troops and shouted: "Array! The archers of the left camp array! One line!"

The archers quickly organized their formation, and the rest of the infantry also quickly moved their positions.

Everyone knows that the Yuedu unified formation has very high requirements and must be aligned in a straight line. This is a manifestation of strict military discipline and there is no sloppiness.

After the bow and arrow battalion was completed, the sound of the Song Army's war drums became denser, like a heavy rain.

At this time, Yang Jin's people left the city and were still in formation. The formation was twisted and twisted, and some even wore their heavy armor hats crookedly.

Some even complained: "This armor is too heavy, I won't wear it anymore!"

Yang Jin didn't care about this. How could he know anything about military affairs?

At most he is a bandit leader, and a bandit leader is still at the level of fighting in groups.

When it comes to group fights, it's all about having more people, so just do what you want. He doesn't care about military formations and military disciplines, thinking that they are useless. More people are strength.

If he had read military books for a few days and read some history books, he would know that the more people there are, the worse the military discipline will be, and the easier it will be to defeat.

Yue Fei pulled out his sword and said loudly: "Fire the arrow!"

He gave the order, and at the Song Army's bow and arrow camp, arrows suddenly shot up from the ground, densely packed into the air, and the area was filled with darkness.

As if a black cloud rose out of thin air and pressed towards Yang Jin's army in front of the city tower.

When Yang Jin's men saw it, they were frightened out of their wits and instinctively screamed.

Some people fell to the ground and covered their heads with their hands, while others turned around and ran away.

In fact, before they went into battle, they knew that the armor on their bodies could protect them.

But when I actually arrived on the battlefield and saw such a dense rain of arrows, I couldn't adjust to my previous habits and cognition for a while.

This is the difference between an untrained army and a well-trained army.

The arrows fell down and hit the armor, making a "ding-ding" sound.

But Yang Jin's army was already in panic. Yang Jin could not imagine this level of group behavior. He shouted loudly: "Charge!"

But his voice was lost in the panic.

The Song army immediately set up their arrows and started the second round of shooting.

Since the second round of shooting, Yang Jin's forwards have been even more messy.

Some people turned around and started running, and panic immediately began to spread. Some people who had not been hit by the arrows started to turn around and run away when they heard the shouts of running for their lives.

Everyone began to crowd towards the city gate.

"Get out of the way and let me in!"

"This armor is too heavy, I don't want it anymore!"

"Let me go in first!"

"..."

Yang Jin himself was shocked. He didn't expect that the army would collapse as soon as they met him!

Seeing the collapse of the army on the opposite side, Yue Fei immediately ordered a charge to kill.

The vanguard troops rushed towards the city gate like a tide. They twisted the iron bones, rushed forward and started to slap people on the head.

The guards at the top of the city panicked when they saw this posture.

Yang Jin quickly shouted: "Close the city gate quickly!"

"Your Majesty, they are all outside..."

Why did Yang Jin worry so much? He shouted: "Close the city gate quickly!"

"Yes Yes……"

The people at the top of the city pulled up the gate, and the city gate began to slowly descend.

When Yang Jin saw that the Song troops were rushing to the city, he rushed over in three steps and slashed with his sword several times, trying to cut off the rope of the gate, but the rope was too strong.

He immediately changed the ax head, and after a few blows, the rope broke.

The gate fell with a bang, and those who were under the gate before they could enter the city were crushed by the heavy iron city gate.

Five people were cut off on the spot, and even their armor was crushed.

They didn't die immediately, they were wailing there.

But their wails were drowned in panic, and no one paid them any attention.

When the army outside saw that the city gate was closed, they all wailed: "Your Majesty, open the door, we haven't entered the city yet!"

Yang Jin ignored them.

Seeing that the city gate was closed, the defeated rebels had no choice but to throw down their armor and surrender.

Yue Fei began to collect prisoners in front of Yang Jin. Yang Jin at the top of the city was so angry that he shouted loudly: "Set them with arrows and shoot them to death!"

Shoot an arrow?

Arrows did start to be fired from the top of the city, but they had just shot a few arrows and had not caused any casualties to the Song army. They could no longer pull the bow.

Anyone who has ever shot an arrow knows that this requires long-term training. For those who have not received training, their arms will begin to feel weak after five arrows.

This is also the reason why in the age of firearms, flintlock guns replaced bows and arrows even though their range was not as far as that of bows and arrows.

A bow and arrow requires two years of training before it can be qualified for the battlefield.

But a musketeer can go to the battlefield in two months, which greatly lowers the threshold and expands the number of people.

So by the time of Napoleon, Europeans could easily mobilize hundreds of thousands of troops to fight on the battlefield. This was the reason.

Having said that, the bows and arrows at the top of the city quickly withered, and Yue Fei sent people to easily pull away the prisoners of war.

In Yue Fei's view, there are no soldiers who cannot fight, only commanders who cannot lead troops.

Han Xin ordered troops, the more the better.

This is the difference between a qualified military commander and a idiot.

I am not afraid of large numbers of people. I have military laws here. Anyone who violates military laws will be killed without mercy. They will follow military regulations.

Those who can't keep up will be eliminated, and those who remain are the strong ones.

This is the army!

Therefore, Yue Fei's captives totaled nearly 20,000 people.

Yang Jin was so angry that he stamped his feet at the top of the city.

After knowing how powerful Yue Fei was, Yang Jin did not dare to mess around again.
Chapter completed!
