Chapter 715 The era of generals
However, it was too late for Zhang Jun to adjust his formation at this time, and at the same time, the Jin army commanded by Wanyan Zhu's mother had already begun to attack his central army. Han Chang, who broke through the left army's defense line, rushed straight to his flank. If nothing unexpected happens, his central army will also be defeated...
Usually this is inevitable.
However, this time it won't be there.
Because there is a legion behind him.
At the same time, the three thousand main cavalry of the Liu family army led by Wang De rushed forward without hesitation, directly blocking the defeated Tian Shizhong.
"Wang Yasha, how dare you kill me?"
Shizhong Tian looked at Wang De who was hitting head-on in horror.
"Escape at the last battle, kill without mercy!"
Wang De sneered and waved his sword without hesitation to slash it.
Shizhong Tian raised his cone gun to block it.
But the difference in combat power between the two was too big. Wang De's oar knife in his hand instantly blocked Tian Shizhong's cone spear, and then stabbed Tian Shizhong's chest. The broad blade suddenly penetrated into his body. The next moment, Wang De roared, and the blade flipped down and slashed hard. While pulling out, it cut open Tian Shizhong's abdomen. The latter fell with the flowing internal organs, and Wang De held the bloody oar knife and looked fiercely at the personal soldiers of Tian Shizhong.
"Change, the escapee died in the last battle!"
He shouted loudly.
The personal soldiers from Tian Shi turned around silently.
At the same time, Wang De activated his war horses and stepped on the corpses from the field division with a torrent of cavalry, rushed straight towards Han Chang. Han Chang, who had originally rushed directly to Zhang Jun's flank, hurriedly turned around to fight. At the same time, the infantry led by Liu Guangshi behind Wang De formed a formation and reorganized the defense line behind Zhang Jun.
The three thousand cavalry led by Wang De soon collided with the Jin army.
His goal is also to directly target Han Chang.
The oar knife in this guy's hand is actually a simplified version of the Mo Dao, or it can be said that it is the three-pointed and two-edged sword mentioned in later generations. He was a military general in the Southern Song Dynasty who could rank in the top five in his personal martial arts. He was not famous because usually later generations remembered the famous generals of the Yue Family Army because of Yue Fei's history, and ignored the core of other armies of the same era. Just like Jie Yuan was the number one general and Cheng Min was the number one general, Wang De was the number one general and general under Liu Guangshi. All the victories of Liu Guangshi were fought by him. Without him by his side, Liu Guangshi had never won a victory. He supported the reputation of the four generals of the latter. After Liu Guangshi was removed from military power, he turned to Zhang Jun's subordinate, and then immediately became Zhang Jun's firefighter. After Zhang Jun was removed from military power, he even became the boss of the Zhang family army.
After Han Shizhong was lifted from military power, Jie Yuan became the leader of the Han family army.
These people are not inferior to those of the generals of the Yue family army at the same time. If they are deducted from the Romance of the Romance, they are just historically second only to the martial arts value of Yue Fei and his son and Yang Zaixing. The victory of the Battle of Zhegao was fought by him and Yang Yizhong.
He was over fifty at that time.
He was just forty years old at this time.
It is almost the peak state of force.
The terrifying oar knife kept flying in the Jin army, and it can be said that the people who blocked the attack were all broken.
By the way, this thing can really cut people in half. Its blade is a broad sword with wide front and narrow back. Because of its shape, it is very difficult to use. However, it is really good at using forceful power. It is second only to battle axe among the usual weapons of the Song army. However, no one uses battle axe immediately. For generals like him, it is a heavy model. The blade is longer and wider, and it is no pressure to cut off the horse's head in the air. The soldiers behind him are all elite northwest, all targeting the border guards of the Western Xia. The three thousand cavalry who exerted aura and the Song army who turned back from the middle of the Tian army suddenly submerged Han Chang's troops.
Because of the previous victory, the latter was eager to expand the results of the battle, and in fact he was separated from the main force. If the Song army did not turn back, he would succeed, but now he has become a rash person.
Soon Han Chang's troops were surrounded.
Wanyan Jiemu no longer had any extra troops to rescue him. In fact, the Jin army on the north bank invested only 50,000 people. Although they had 120,000, in addition to Luosuo's 20,000 on the south bank, there were 50,000 blocked on the Taihang Road. At this time, Nianhan had not ordered them to retreat, and even if they retreated for a short time, they would not be able to enter the battlefield. The 50,000 army was squeezed on the winding mountain road. It was not as simple as turning on the spot, especially because they were still crowded. At least today, it would be difficult for Wanyan Jiemu to obtain reinforcements from this part of the Jin army.
And he wanted to fight nearly 200,000 Song troops with 50,000 people.
He has no extra troops.
At this moment, another team of cavalry appeared behind Liu Guangshi's defense line, and the banner he raised was the Hebei Xuanfu Department.
These are the cavalry under Zong Ze's troops.
At this time, Zongze did not need cavalry. He formed a dawn formation. He and the local volunteers who came urgently almost blocked the surrounding area of Qinghua into iron walls. The lines of defense were densely packed with horses, and they were almost dug out trenches. Even if he withdrew all the soldiers, the Jin army would have a headache after thinking about it. Moreover, the people of Hebei who were in order to protect their homes from being poisoned were coming in a steady stream, and even the people in Bianliang City formed their own militia teams to participate in the battle. By the way, this could almost be said to be a decisive battle in the Song and Jin. Everyone knew that once the group of Nianhan was completely wiped out, then there was no need to worry about the Jin army going south, even if they were regaining all lost land north, they would be stressed even if they were recaptured by Taiyuan.
These are all the strategic mobile forces of the Jin army.
Nianhan was originally stationed in Datong, and Olibu was originally stationed in Youzhou. This was the Jin army that could fight mobile operations from the sixteen states of Yanyun to the south. If they were completely wiped out, the Jin Kingdom would not be able to form another offensive army of the same size within at least five years.
And annihilation of them means the end of the war.
It is impossible for the Jin Kingdom to continue fighting.
The Jin Kingdom also has no ability to inherit and fight again.
At this moment, no matter the local officials, powerful people, or even ordinary people behind the battlefield, they were inspired by the prospect of peace and beautification in the world, and then they rushed to make their final efforts. Even the Zhang Institute in the north sent the rebel army he had just collected to reinforce.
So Zong Ze didn't need this cavalry that he couldn't use, so he just sent a favor to reinforce. Although he and Zhang Jun were two battlefields, they were actually more than twenty miles apart. The width of the entire north bank of Qin River was actually only thirty or forty miles, which was basically equivalent to a straight line from the mountainous area north of modern Boai to the south to the Qin River. Not to mention cavalry, even infantry can support each other when running faster.
Liu Guangshi immediately let go of the road.
This cavalry directly joined the battlefield where Han Chang was besieged.
Poor Han Chang was also unlucky today.
His subordinates were actually 5,000 in total, but not all real cavalry. He was a Han from the Liao Kingdom, but he was quite loyal to the Jin Kingdom. His troops were actually mainly Khitans and Han people. Except for a few elite soldiers, they were all infantry riding horses. Although he was very capable of fighting by his conscience, he would not have become the number one general under Jin Wushu, and he was almost tied with the famous Jurchen generals. But even if he was a tiger, he could not resist the wolves, not to mention that he was a powerful general of the same level as Wang De, but...
However, he made a mistake.
Wang De is not the most powerful one.
The most powerful one has just arrived.
"Where did such a fierce general come from?"
Wang De, who was slashing, looked at him in shock.
A young general with a white horse in the cavalry belonging to the Hebei Xuanfu Division suddenly rushed out of the team and crashed into the Jin army alone. A cone gun in his hand advanced forward at an almost jaw-dropping speed. Wherever he passed, the Jin cavalry was constantly being taken off by him, and he really picked it up. Even if it was just one pick and then throw it out, it would definitely be amazing.
And that cone gun is obviously not normal.
It is normal to be difficult to provoke someone.
After all, the wooden gun has limited hardness unless it is an iron cone gun.
Wang De, who was also a powerful general, even forgot to fight and looked at the sudden young man in a daze, watching him rush forward like a bamboo shoot in the Jin army.
And Han Chang was also dumbfounded.
Han Chang did not wake up until he was less than five feet away from him.
This guy is not good at robbing. He was the number one thug in the late stage. He immediately roared and swung the mace to meet him. Just as the young general smashed the head of a Jin army with a cone gun, Han Chang's mace roared down. The young general swept the cone gun in his hand. Han Chang almost let go of his hand when the guns and rods hit each other. The iron cone gun stabbed him directly in the chest. Han Chang smashed his mace under the mace. While he was swinging the cone gun, a personal soldier next to him hit him with a hammer. The cone gun swept across the hammer and then the hammer flew away. The head of the gun swept over the chest of the personal soldier. Han Chang took this opportunity to knock down the mace again, but the general avoided it. At the same time, he swung his left hand and a crane beak hammer or pecked that had been hanging on his wrist. Then he hit Han Chang's right arm.
This is the real can opener.
However, due to the styling, it requires some skill to swing it. Although it is not heavy, it is much harder to use than a hammer and whip mace.
The fish-scale armored armour on Han Chang's armour did not stop its attack at all. The sharp hammer hit the iron armor and smashed it into his arm, even nailed it to his bones. He suddenly screamed and the mace fell in his hand. The young general used one hand and Han Chang's heavy body was pulled away from the war horse. At the same time, the crane-mouth hammer was also pulled out. Before Han Chang could land, the crane-mouth hammer fell down again.
This time, the hammer instantly broke Han Chang's helmet and smashed into his head...
"June Zhang is just like that!"
Wang De, who had arrived not far away, sighed.
At this time, Han Chang's personal soldiers were already scared. They watched the young general cut off Han Chang's head and picked it up with the crane-mouth hammer still stuck on it. With a hint of sneer, they carried it and led Han Chang's horse towards the cavalry he belonged to.
"After a certain left-behind officer of the Left Army in Nanjing, the commander of Wang De, the general respects his surname?"
Wang De shouted through the Jin army.
"Yang Zaixing, the general of the Sima army in Hebei Xuanfu, met General Wang."
The young general bowed and said.
"Okay, okay, heroes are young!"
Wang De sighed.
