Chapter 983: Faith in the Central Plains, Entering the Kingdom of Jin
"It's the end of April..."
Wanyan Agu sat meditating on Tuxue Qianlihong's back. He unfolded a simple map in his hand, which outlined the Great Wall Pass at Gubeikou and the location of the beacon tower that the Jin scouts had discovered. Suddenly he felt a sense of heat, and his face turned pale.
He immediately sank in: "The heat is very early this year, and there is not much time left for our army!"
It is said that the right time is not as important as the right place, and the right place is not as good as the people. It sounds like the importance of the right time is the lowest. There are indeed many glorious battles in history that overcome the right time and achieve victory. However, in fact, all ethnic groups pay attention to one month in sending troops.
For example, when Li Shimin conquered Goguryeo in the past, he set a time limit for the Tang army to destroy the country before September because the Tang army could not bear the bitter cold in Liaodong. If it was delayed until winter, there would be a large number of sick people. However, when the foreign tribes from the north invaded the south, it was just the opposite.
Can't fight.
Not to mention the Jin people, the previous Liao people were also fond of cold and afraid of heat. Emperor Taizong of the Liao Dynasty, Yelu De, destroyed the later Jin Dynasty and occupied Kaifeng, but abandoned the Central Plains and returned to the north. One of the reasons was that the army could not tolerate the heat.
Humans cannot live there." Yes, at that time, the Khitan people faced the Central Plains people who were in constant war and felt that they were the people of the superior country.
Later, when the Khitan army attacked the Central Plains, they also tried their best to avoid the rainy and hot summer, and chose the less rainy, dry and cool period from late autumn to early spring.
Of."
The same is true for the golden people.
But Wanyan Aguda's dispatch of troops this time obviously violated this rule and was chosen at the end of April, a time when spring and summer alternate, the weather is unstable, and the temperature is gradually rising.
This is also the reason why the Yan army was caught off guard.
Even if Yan Ting issued an order for all armies to prepare for war and be on strict guard, peacetime and war are different after all. Soldiers cannot be on high alert all the time. If the enemy does not attack, their spirits will collapse.
Therefore, as summer approached, the Jin Army actually moved south in a large scale, which really surprised the border troops. The Jin Army naturally took the initiative at the beginning.
"If we successfully capture Shanhaiguan and drive straight in, the land of Yanyun, which is much richer and more prosperous than the Liao Kingdom, will be free to be plundered by our Jin people's iron cavalry..."
"It's a pity that Zhao Gou's death is worthless. Shanhaiguan was frustrated and Gubeikou lured the enemy. Our army's advantage has gradually been lost!"
Wanyan Aguda's eyes showed uneasiness.
Reason told him that at this stage of the battle, the chance of victory was actually slim, but if he really wanted to retreat, the backlash from all the tribes would be unbearable for Jin Ting...
dilemma!
At this moment, Wanyan Wu Yashu came up behind him. Although he was the eldest brother, he still said respectfully: "Your Majesty, I have summoned eight hundred elites for a surprise attack!"
"Didn't I ask my brother to gather two thousand capable people?"
Wanyan Aguda was puzzled: "My clan makes a living by fishing and hunting. Hunting and fishing are the means of survival. Is it difficult to gather a hunting team of two thousand people?"
Wanyan Wu Yashu was a little embarrassed: "Your Majesty, please rest assured... I will quickly select a clan member..."
A cold light flashed in Wanyan Aguda's eyes, and his tone became firmer: "I was hesitant just now, but now I am extremely happy to start the war quickly. If I had waited a few more years, my clan would be enjoying themselves, and I didn't know what would happen to me.
What does it look like? By that time, it will not be us who come to attack Yan, but the Yan army will easily destroy our country Zuo!"
Wanyan Wu Yashu fell silent, and deeply realized the importance of this battle concerning the life and death of the Jin Kingdom.
The overall fighting skills of the Jurchens are still online. That elite, powerful and invincible momentum was condensed during the sweep of the three northern countries. It will not disappear for a while, but the strength of individual soldiers has declined significantly.
"Hurry up and recruit men and prepare for a surprise attack on every pass of the Great Wall. There is absolutely no turning back in this battle. We must conquer it before the hot weather comes..."
Wanyan Aguda gave the order firmly, but in the middle of his words, he suddenly raised his head and looked towards the horizon.
The weather that had been clear and clear before was now covered by large dark clouds, and lightning was jumping playfully in the clouds.
"No! It's going to rain!"
…
"Whoosh!"
The green light in the sky brightened his eyes. Yuliqing jumped over the enemy's head and went straight behind him. Lu Junyi turned his spear, and the head of another golden man Mou Ke flew high into the air, and his body fell to the ground.
I don’t know how many conspirators Lu Junyi has killed. It’s like a god descending to earth. Wherever he goes, no golden man can stop him.
The most frightening thing is that Lu Junyi was not as red-blooded as Li Kui. He only knew how to rush forward. He relied on his fast horse to cleverly avoid the position of the Jin's heavy armored cavalry. He also did not go deep into the enemy's formation. When the enemy came from behind,
When there was an unusual sound of drum beating, he immediately led his bodyguards back to the Yan Formation.
Zhu Wuling's flag signaled, and the defense of the heavy armored cavalry remained impregnable. The military formation, leaving no gaps, once again opened the passage to welcome the return of this brave and strategic jade unicorn.
Groups of auxiliary soldiers rushed up to replace his armor and stomach, which were stained red with blood, replenished his empty quiver, and replaced him with new spears.
Some of the cavalrymen who returned with Lu Junyi collapsed from exhaustion. They had stimulated their whole body's potential just now, but they could no longer hold it back once they came back. But this one was still in high spirits, shouting happily, and even facing Zhu Wu.
Holding fists: "Zuo Cheng's formation changes are so amazing, I admire him!"
Zhu Wu caressed his beard: "If there was no governor, how would this formation be possible?"
Lu Junyi said with a smile: "After a short rest, we can fight again. This time we will definitely give the gold thief a head-on blow!"
After the divine arrow is shot, it returns to the bowstring, is set up again, and is ready to go!
First, the heavy-armored infantry of the Yan Army withstood the charge of the Jin's heavy-armored cavalry, and then Lu Junyi's charge, and the balance of victory began to tilt significantly.
The key is that when many important Jin generals were killed by Lu Junyi first, Wanyan Odai found that his command became more and more sluggish.
The Jin people have a very good habit, that is, when fighting, everyone, regardless of high or low, must go into battle, and even charge on the front line. This will undoubtedly greatly boost the morale of the soldiers under their command.
This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! But everything has advantages and disadvantages. When these tribal chiefs or upper-class nobles are killed, the delivery of orders becomes even slower, and the chaos in each department gradually becomes apparent.
The orders were no longer unified, and each began to fight independently.
When Zhu Wu saw this, he began to wave the flag unceremoniously.
There is a poem that says, war is always like a game of chess, and if you play chess with determination, there will be no sorrow, but war is not a game of chess after all.
There are rules in the game of chess. Each side makes a move. No matter how great the advantage is, they cannot make consecutive moves.
The point of war is to break the rules and take as many steps as you can. It is best to take down the opponent in one fell swoop without any delay.
"Pocket array?"
Zhu Wu was like this at this time. When the Yan army's formation changed again, Wanyan's leadership quickly changed color, because he found that the Yan army did not know how to change, and its wings spread out like a bag, actually trying to wrap the Jin cavalry in it.
in.
Obviously, for the cavalry who come and go like the wind and can escape if they can't be beaten, this is the best formation to annihilate the enemy. Once the mouth of the bag is tied, the infantry can still block the retreat, allowing the enemy to get in but unable to get out.
!
However, such a formation also revealed quite a few weaknesses. After all, this place is flat and there is no geographical advantage. Large-scale changes in the formation will inevitably expose flaws. Wanyan's coordinator was angry and happy: "Do the Yan people think they have won?"
Are you sure? Charge me! If you open a gap, the Yan army will be extremely happy and sad!"
This is true, sometimes the victory or defeat really depends on a cavalry charge, but Zhu Wu dared to change the formation like this because he trusted one person.
A person worth trusting.
"Haha! This governor is here!
"
Lu Junyi rode on Yuliqing and fought out again, followed by two hundred cavalry. The bright armor reflected the light. Each warrior had a bloody and fanatical look on his face as he faced the Jin's attacking cavalry.
The collision of the two powerful forces caused a raging pile of passionate flesh and blood to rise in front of the formation, which also emitted a hellish and terrifying glow of blood.
If it was a roundabout way before, this time it's a big fight, slashing with all your strength!
Yu Liqing's body was covered with armor, and Lu Junyi's armor was inevitably stabbed. Instead of the enemy's blood splattering, his own blood also poured out.
But when it comes to injuries, with the physique of this Qilinzi, who can he be afraid of?
"kill--!"
Fighting against the Jin army all the way, Lu Junyi danced wildly with his spear, overthrowing thieves one after another, and there was no enemy under his command.
Until a spear struck at an extremely vicious angle.
"Keng!"
The two spears stirred up the clash of gold and iron in the air, and while sparks flew, they both felt the astonishing explosive force coming from the other's body.
"Oh? You, the enemy general, finally dare to go into battle?"
Lu Junyi looked with disdain at the Wanyan leader who came out under the cover of his personal guards.
"Stop being so arrogant!"
It was not that Wanyan Odai had forgotten Wanyan Aguda's instructions, but at this time when we met on a narrow road, the brave would win, and it was time for him to take the lead: "Wait until I kill you, and then defeat the Yan army!"
"Then come!"
Lu Junyi stabbed out with a spear.
In terms of strength, there is no doubt that Lu Junyi is stronger, but Wanyan is not weak either, and he has been recharging his energy before. Compared with Lu Junyi, he killed at least two to three hundred golden soldiers and was injured again. He is the best in the world.
Your body will eventually get tired.
Just when one war spear was like thunder, and the other war spear was like lightning, thunder and lightning intersected at this moment, bursting out with roars like wind and rain, and they were fighting fiercely. The celestial phenomena seemed to be triggered, and with a snap, their cheeks
I felt a little wet all over my body and subconsciously moved apart.
Wanyan Odai was stunned. First there was surprise in his voice, and then there was fear: "Rain...is it raining?"
"Water is the source of life, nourishing all things and nurturing life, so wonderful!"
Lu Junyi licked his dry lips and felt the nourishment of the water drops. He even forgot about the pain of the wound and grinned: "You Jin people often say that destiny is in me. Now it seems that I have not met a real opponent."
