Chapter 168 The cavalry wins, the bloody battle at the city head
Chapter 168: Cavalry victory, bloody battle at the city head
"Go, order two thousand cavalry to go into battle! Drive them thirty miles away! Don't let these annoying rats disturb us." Ulin Damu said with a frown.
South of the camp, more than two thousand Song Army cavalry, led by Ji Rong, moved around several miles away from the camp. Occasionally, they would charge outside the camp, shoot inward and then retreat directly!
"Although this battle was not smooth, seeing these golden soldiers disturbed by us really makes me happy!" Ji Rong said with a smile on a black war horse. In the past few days, they have lost a lot of money.
They couldn't kill just a hundred people, but the Jin soldiers suffered hundreds of scattered casualties! Moreover, the Jin soldiers obviously didn't want to send out a large army to chase them, so that they were in no danger.
"Tap, step, step..."
"Get ready to evacuate!" Hearing the sound of horse hooves in the camp, Ji Rong shouted sharply. Sure enough, as soon as they turned around, they saw two thousand cavalry rushing towards them from the camp.
Two groups of cavalry chased and escaped! The two sides were three to five miles apart! However, this time was different from before. The two thousand cavalry actually chased for twenty miles and still did not retreat.
Ji Rong's eyes lit up, he was not surprised but happy!
"Let's go towards the shallow water beach!"
The shallow beach is the most complex body of water next to the Bianshui River. It looks calm and calm, but if you run around randomly, those life-threatening whirlpools and the mud hidden under the floating grass can easily swallow up all life.
Moreover, the reason why they were divided and merged was that in addition to taking turns to harass them, they could also set up an ambush. And the place for this ambush was also on a shallow beach.
"Looking at the Jin cavalry chasing after them! Ji Rong sneered, "Hey, Grandpa Ji, I'm going to eat meat today."
The distance is more than ten miles, and the galloping horses can arrive in an instant!
Looking at the calm shallow water ahead, Jirong whispered an order, "Follow me, don't fail to trap Jin Bing, or you will lose your life first!"
The two thousand Song troops immediately formed a long queue and rushed directly to the shallow beach in front. Although the pursuers in the rear immediately reached the thirty miles mentioned by the commander, the enemy troops
How could he give up when he was right in front of him? Therefore, the commander of the Jin Army did not hesitate and directly chased him. However, he was not stupid either. Although he did not know what the terrain ahead was like, his subconscious mind was to let the soldiers behind him do the same.
Follow the position where the Song army passed by in front.
In an instant, Jin Bing arrived in the middle of the shallow beach.
"Kill, kill, kill..."
Suddenly! In the surrounding dense forests and reed swamps, the sounds of Song troops shouting to kill were heard everywhere! Moreover, there were more sounds of horse hooves.
These dozens of shouts of killing caused the Jin soldiers to suddenly become chaotic. The Jin soldiers in the front stopped, and the Jin soldiers in the rear just rushed forward, with the Golden Soldiers as the core, preparing to form a large circular formation to meet the enemy!
However, this time they deviated from the direction they originally wanted to go. In an instant, the screams of the war horses and golden soldiers were heard. They were horrified to find that there was like a devil below, swallowing up both themselves and the war horses.
Go down. Moreover, the more they struggle, the deeper they are trapped!
"No, I've fallen into a trap!" the commander shouted, "Back off! Don't take a side road, just follow the original path!"
After a moment of panic, the team that had lost hundreds of soldiers finally regained its strength and carefully retreated away from the shallow water beach. However, as the sound of horse hoofbeats approached, two thousand cavalry suddenly appeared and wandered outside the shallow water beach, bows drawn.
The arrows fell, and even if the Jin soldiers wanted to counterattack, they were unable to form a formation and were afraid of being swallowed by the shallow water. Therefore, their piecemeal counterattacks could not bring much harm to the Song army.
.
At this time, Ji Rong, who had fled in panic, led his soldiers back again. Similarly, they did not enter the shallow water beach, but cruising outside the shallow water beach, just shooting arrows at the Jin soldiers, and even not giving them any arrows.
Opportunity for combat!
With no way forward or backward, the surrounding soldiers kept screaming to death, finally completely wiping out the will of the Jin soldiers! Even the captain could not maintain the soldiers under his command. However, the panic caused them to be shot or killed faster.
Swallowed by the whirlpool, within two hours, none of the two thousand gold soldiers could escape, or they were all killed by Ji Rong's cavalry! This small shallow beach completely became the burial place of the two thousand gold soldiers and cavalry.
The two armies and horses converged, and both Ji Rong and several generals were beaming with joy! In a real cavalry confrontation, this was the first time they had wiped out the golden soldiers so cleanly and neatly.
"Count the men and horses and see what our losses are!" Jirong ordered.
Not long after, someone came to report, "General, we have lost one hundred and sixty-three people! The general's plan is indeed mysterious. Such a small loss actually killed two thousand gold soldiers and cavalry. If this happens a few more times,
Those tens of thousands of golden soldiers are not enough for us to kill!"
"Fart!" Ji Rong scolded with a smile, "Do you think this general's head can be so bright? Before our trip, didn't the commander-in-chief's brother-in-law Shen Gongzi give some advice? If you follow my idea, you can go directly to the camp.
The one who killed his mother is..."
"Ha ha ha ha……"
A great victory that made thousands of cavalrymen smile with joy.
"Okay! Continue to disrupt the Jin camp according to the previous arrangement! However, they have lost thousands of men and horses, and it will be difficult for them to take advantage of this huge advantage. Have you not forgotten what I told you before?
According to that arrangement! In the next game, we should have a bloody battle with the Jin soldiers..."
"Kill, kill, kill..."
The cavalry divided their forces again and acted according to the predetermined plan.
The sun tilted and gradually set, and the darkness slowly enveloped it. But whether it was the golden soldiers outside the city or on the city wall, torches were lit to illuminate the dark night!
Burn the midnight oil and fight!
Finally, the most severe time has come! After repeated battles, not only were the soldiers unable to get a better rest, but the deaths of their comrades and the spurts of blood put great pressure on their hearts and wills.
In just one day, all the defensive equipment originally prepared for the city had been used up, and even more than half of the equipment that was shipped later had been used up! The Song army injured nearly two thousand soldiers in total, and the Jin soldiers suffered even greater losses, and they attacked the south gate to death.
The five thousand infantry were almost exhausted...
The walls above and below the city were almost piled with corpses from both sides, and the blood dyed the entire city wall red! But the commanders of both sides did not waver in the slightest. In front of them, the lives of human beings were worthless!
"Brother, I have led people to demolish all the bluestone roads in the city, and all the stones have been transported to the top of the city. These stones are enough to last another day and night!"
