Chapter 1591 Heavy riding elite, at least it looks terrifying now
In the following days, both Xiao Tang and Wanyan Wushu tentatively mobilized their troops and sent out soldiers and horses for several small-scale encounters. Although the casualties on both sides were not large, as the soldiers and horses dispatched by each other continued,
More and more, Xiao Tang and Wanyan Wushu seemed to have a tacit understanding. They all led the main force of their headquarters out of the camp and went straight to the vast and empty land between Pu and Jizhou to assemble.
Their respective soldiers and horses are engaged in a battle that will ultimately determine the outcome.
During the march, he heard that Tan Ma had come to report that there were at least 60,000 soldiers and horses under the banner of the Jin Army. When they were only fourteen or five miles away from here, Xiao Tang raised his eyebrows, and immediately ordered Tan Ma to check again, and said
"This Wanyan Wushu was really eager to get rid of me. He first besieged Shuibo Liangshan Walled City with the intention of breaking through it, and pressed heavy troops on the border. But when he learned that I was personally leading the army, he commanded most of the troops to greet the general.
He intends to seek a decisive battle with me immediately."
At this time, Lu Zhishen, Lu Junyi, Hua Rong, Zhu Wu, Yang Zhi, Yao Pingzhong and other generals all rode their horses to surround Xiao Tang. Hua Rong said: "The enemy is riding 20,000 iron pagodas, kidnap horses, and four more
Ten thousand infantry, our strength is not inferior to that of the Tatars, not to mention the two Xianggongs Zong and Zhang have promised to lead their troops to temporarily hold back the reinforcements of the puppet Qi, and the reinforcements dispatched by Xiao Jiasui's brother and Liu Jinglue have not yet arrived. If Huangfu Duan,
The methods used by the two brothers Chang Boda can also work... If you think about it, you will be able to defeat the Tatars and achieve a great victory!"
Xiao Tang nodded slightly when he saw this. Although he led a group of brothers to fight against the Jin army and defeated the enemy repeatedly, but now that he is in the mountains, he must beware of falling short of success, and he still cannot be careless. Before, he could know the general situation of the Jin army from historical materials.
He took the lead in the direction of the enemy, and achieved several great victories through strategic deployments that were able to attack the enemy's weak points. However, Wanyan Orulubu, who had fought against Wanyan Orulubu before, and Yin Shuke, a famous general of the Jin Army, really talked about his personal experience in large and small battles.
, the experience of uniting the army in bloody battles is much more than his own. If he were to fight with those powerful enemies again, if he was only competing for his real abilities such as commanding troops and generals, and adapting to battle opportunities, Xiao Tang also knew very well that the opponent would and might not have a chance to capture him.
When the fighter planes counterattacked, they were defeated and defeated.
Now facing the head coach of the Jin Army, Wanyan Wushu, the pre-war deployment must not only be thorough and secure, but also must use surprising means to win according to the circumstances...
According to what Huangfu Duan and Chang Boda said, if the horses in the Jin army were infected with the disease, although they would not die in large numbers in a few days, they would be infected with white and gray patches all over their bodies, making them easily frightened and irritable.
Even if the symptoms are not obvious at ordinary times, no matter how strong the horse is, if it bears hundreds of kilograms of weight and is charged back and forth, it will probably collapse immediately from fatigue.
Now we have to see whether Yan Wushu will realize that the heavily armored elite cavalry he commands has been infected with the very rare clan horse disease, and whether the epidemic situation of the horses will have a fatal impact on the Jin army.
At this point, Xiao Tang also shouted an order immediately: "Send my military order, the three armies will first find a favorable location to defend themselves, and form a formation on the spot to wait for the Jin invaders!"
The surrounding leaders suddenly accepted the order, and then immediately rushed back to their own formations. The camp leaders gave orders one after another. The armies continued to march, but they could not go more than seven or eight miles away to a stretch of endless wilderness and assembled on the spot. All the troops and battalions gathered on the spot.
Not long after the soldiers spread out their formation, they formed a formation with red flags spread across the sky and white swords covered with thousands of miles of snow. Soon, the soldiers in front noticed that the earth began to tremble slightly. Immediately, someone set up a pergola and looked into the distance.
, I saw a group of black dots gathered like ants on the other side of the horizon. The black dots quickly became larger. It seemed that teams of cavalry had formed an aggressive formation. They were urging their horses faster and faster.
They rushed towards Xiao Tang's army, which was currently just forming defensive formations. The sky was filled with dust and smoke covered the sun, and a large number of Jurchen cavalry came like a raging flood that burst a dike, accompanied by shouts that resounded throughout the night.
, the momentum is so thrilling that people can immediately feel it!
Just as the soldiers of the rebel army were arranging in dense formations with clanging armor, the soldiers in front could vaguely see the crotches of a large number of heavy cavalrymen among the enemy cavalry who were suddenly coming.
The war horses are equipped with veils, chicken necks, chests, collars, chests, belts... and other vest items, which make those tall horses in the North look like they are covered with iron barbs.
The terrifying monsters, now moving in groups, really look like mobile fortresses gathered in one place.
The leader of the formation-breaking army, Hu Yanzhuo, who was on the left side of the formation, was a good general who knew how to deal with heavy cavalry. When he saw the heavy-armored cavalrymen and horses of the Jin Army opposite him wearing sets of well-made armor, he only looked at the quality of its workmanship.
The metal texture reflected in the sunlight roughly weighs a few hundred kilograms in total. It seems that the horse armor is heavier than the armor used by the chain horse heavy cavalry he pulled, and the majestic war horse riding on the opposite side
The quality is also much taller and more majestic than the mounts that were chosen from the war horses that were scarce in the Song Dynasty.
The group of horses, which at least look majestic now, are covered with heavy armor, and their bowl-sized hooves are pounding heavily on the ground. It sounds like a series of thunderstorms, roaring in the sky, and it is so powerful.
Even the brave and brave rebels who had been fighting for a long time could not help but change their expressions slightly when they saw this. What's more, the Song army had not experienced much war in many years, and the military discipline was slack and the military was weak.
He was going to be so scared right away that he couldn't even think of fighting!
However, the heavily armored elite Jurchen heavy cavalry wore only two holes on their heavy iron gaiters, and they were full of murderous intent. They just looked forward, and the heavy armor pieces they wore did not look like ordinary horses.
The armor of the military uniform is made up of tiny nail leaves, but is woven with layers of plate-like armor strips that have a strong sense of hierarchy. The armor strips gradually decrease upwards to form a large pair of armor. At a glance, it really looks like a series of armor.
The iron pagoda stands on top of the iron monster.
Each of the Tiefutu heavy-armored soldiers has a strong body with broad shoulders and broad backs. Now they are rushing over in groups, which seems to be endless. The number seems to be much more than the chain horse soldiers commanded by Hu Yanzhuo.
Peng Qi, who was hit by an arrow in the neck during the battle with Hedong Taiyuan, still needed to be recuperated. When Hu Yanzhuo looked at Han Tao next to him, the two looked at each other with serious expressions on their faces.
Peng Qi, who was close to Hu Yanzhuo and Han Tao, was almost killed in the fierce battle with Yin Shuke's elite cavalry. Hu Yanzhuo held on to the water mill while the two sides were racing back and forth.
He couldn't help but tighten the eight-edged steel whip, and he couldn't help but secretly said: It's no wonder that the Song army led by Zhang Shuye in Jeju was massacred by the Jin army's iron float and collapsed at the slightest touch... With such a heavy cavalry momentum,
, and then use the tactics that the Jurchen Tatars are good at to charge and kill repeatedly. If I only control the chain of horses and heavy cavalry to defend against the enemy, I am afraid that I will win less and lose more...
What's more, there are even more elite cavalry horses on the left and right sides of Tiefu Tu.
The knights in the front row of the heavy spears and cavalry horses that surrounded them from both wings were all holding long weapons such as horse spears and spears. Countless sharp points emerged from the front array in layers. The cavalry in the back rows were holding hammers, maces and other heavy blunt weapons.
, all have sharp sabers on their waists, and most of the horses are equipped with all kinds of long and short weapons for fighting; and although the teams of bow and arrow cavalry horses are all lightly armed, in addition to the riding bows in their bow bags, most of them are in their bags.
They are also long-steered fine iron wolf fang arrows that the Jurchens are good at. Almost all knights are elite soldiers who can shoot hard bows, control horses, ride and shoot freely. And the Tiefu Tu and Kaizima tribes are also members of various tribes.
The troops are elite and brave, and with the seemingly inexhaustible and perseverance of the Jurchen Cavalry, they launch waves of violent attacks like raging waves. What enemy will not be crushed by such powerful cavalry?
And be completely swept away and annihilated?
At least at the moment, Wanyan Wushu has such thoughts in mind. He is riding forward surrounded by a group of Jin Army generals. His beast-like eyes look through the layers of cavalry formations in front of him and fall on the opposite side.
On the other side of the enemy formation that had just formed, Wanyan Wushu soon showed a ferocious smile on his face, and the fierce fighting spirit in his pair of moves became even more intense...
