"Well, it's going to strike in two moments, are you sure?" Li Shifu glanced at Qiu Yun and said lightly, but he sighed in his heart, Feng Yuan is the master of the first army, and he controls the three armies to fight, even Jing Bo is about to become a capital colonel, this guy can lead a battalion to fight, how can life be like this, people don't hesitate to sigh!

"Don't worry, I'll prepare, it's time to put on armor." Qiu Yun took a deep breath, turned around and walked back, his steps were particularly firm.

"Do you want to bring a fleet of chariots?" Li Shifu shouted loudly.

"Cut, you can keep it!" Qiu Yun didn't look back, waved his hand and strode away.

Li Shifu looked at Qiu Yun's back, the corners of his mouth were slightly upturned, and his eyes were full of approval, this is a peerless general with a bad fate.

"Captain ......"

"Order all battalions to prepare, and watch my order to destroy Shengqiang."

On the front, Wang Xuan led hundreds of horsemen in a thin formation, he was the first to gallop left and right, and the right flank of the Xia army's front army was loose, and he was not advancing, only fighting nearby.

It should be said that he took the lead in launching the attack, so that there was an offensive of the party brothers and Xi Yulili, but because the number of people was too small, it could not make waves.

Ren Chuncong was shocked and angry, and hundreds of horsemen were actually fighting, making him feel that General Song had humiliated him, and immediately ordered the horse army to attack.

This is a cavalry of the garrison, also six or seven hundred people, they are against the bows and crossbows of the Song army, and they are killed with lightning speed.

Wang Xuan never imagined that when the Xia army was attacked on the southern flank, they would even use the horse army to counterattack, and they should attack with a strong infantry army to try their best to recapture the captured stockade, rather than taking his small army.

Since the other party was fighting, he was not a bad breed and even a reckless man, so he immediately ordered the horse army to retreat, keep a distance as much as possible, and shoot the enemy with a bow and crossbow.

It's not that he is timid and embarrassed, but in front of the opponent's offensive army, if he is entangled by the enemy, and then caught up by the infantry army, it is called a senseless tragedy, and it is correct to retreat calmly.

The two battalions of officials who followed Wang Xuan out of the village did not participate in the battle ahead, but lined up in a covering formation, waiting to support the horse army. They were all troops armed with strong crossbows, and when they saw the enemy attacking, their horse army robes were withdrawn, and they did not panic, but took turns firing in three columns of crossbowmen to cover the retreat of the horse army.

As the crossbowmen of the two battalions took turns firing, the power of the Divine Arm Bow was brought into full play, and the garrison with extremely strong combat effectiveness was suppressed by the crossbow arrows, and one after another was shot into the dust.

If it is not a strong crossbow but a hard bow, if you want the Xia army to rush to within more than a hundred steps, I am afraid that three rounds of shooting will not be able to stop it, and the killing of the bow and crossbow will be decided.

When Wang Xuan led the horse team to sweep through the military formation, the group of captured soldiers still attacked bravely, but under the sharp blow of crossbow arrows, they rushed within fifty paces, their number was too small, and they were facing the impact of the military formation, and it was simply wishful thinking to break the Song army's military formation.

This is also Feng Yuan's consideration, Wang Xuanguang led the horse army to attack, I am afraid that it will be difficult to retreat, only the infantry army can ensure the advance and retreat of the horse army.

"Feng Zixuan, you are really calm." Wang Xuan glanced back at Dazhai and counted Feng Yuan angrily, the two battalions of infantry were more than self-preservation, and obviously could not support him to fight back.

As soon as the words fell, but I heard the drums in the village and shook the sky, the three big villages of the Song army opened the door, and a team of soldiers and horses came out, quickly lined up into a formation, forming a defense line backed by the camp, and the main force of the Tianwu army and the archers of the subordinate township army went to war.

The battle on the frontal battlefield finally kicked off quickly.

Ren Chuncong saw that the Song army was finally out of the village, and couldn't help but be overjoyed, if the Song army cowered in the village, it would be necessary to force the infantry army to attack, and take the three villages to attack the Shibao Village, and I don't know how much time was wasted and how many lives were sacrificed.

The life of the Xia army is like a mustard in his eyes, and the reason why he cares about human life is whether he can capture Shibaozhai, without sufficient troops, it is difficult to achieve the strategic goal.

According to Ren Dejing's arrangement, he immediately informed the former army general that the Huaizhou Metropolitan Army did not let the two wings send troops to contain the Song army, but prepared an iron harrier to attack.

Luo Mo looked down on Ren Chuncong, and was extremely dissatisfied with Ren Dejing's letting this governor lead the iron harrier, that is the important weapon of the country, how can he let the vertical son be restrained, and he simply treats the party generals as nothing. No matter how dissatisfied he was, he could only mutter twice, Ren Dejing was ordered by Zhongshu to control the army, he couldn't afford to offend, so he could only order the left and right flanks of the front army to attack.

Although most of the Xia troops in front were not elite, there was no shortage of capture troops and garrisons on both wings, who rode their horses and rushed towards the Song army's formation.

The Tianwu army relied on the camp, and with the cooperation of the archers of the township army, it was ten thousand arrows.

The horses and infantry troops on both wings of the Xia army were tantamount to moths throwing fire, but they still stepped on the billowing smoke and dust, and rushed towards the well-organized large array of the Song army, many of whom opened their eyes wide, looked at the long steel wall of the Song army, and let out a cry of strength or fear.

The arrows flying in the sky are enough to destroy the consciousness of the strong.

In the face of the overwhelming offensive of the Xia army, the Song soldiers of all departments did not need military orders, and they were strictly trained in peacetime to let them know how to do it.

In the face of the military orders of the commanders of the battalions and teams, long-range stone throwers, bed crossbows, divine arm bows, and various hard bows were fired layer by layer, and iron shells, lime bullets, pear blossom arrows, and featherless arrows covered the far, medium, and near multi-directional intensive strikes, and the battlefield was covered with blood mist.

It must be said that the Song army's baggage transfer was very efficient, and the material preparation was quite sufficient, and a single blow would cost a lot of money, which made the officials of the household department and the Taifu palpitate, not to mention the continuous and uninterrupted interrupted shooting.

The cost is huge, the effect is remarkable, within 700 steps to 100 steps, the Xia army horse infantry turned on their backs, leaving behind many dead corpses, luckily entered 100 steps without being shot by a hard bow at close range, within 50 steps faced the threat of the Song army's heavy infantry with guns, can reach within 50 steps of very few, but under the strong pressure of the heavy infantry, they are crushed.

The collision of flesh and steel doomed them to a tragic end, and those lucky Xia soldiers rushed up, including horse troops and infantry troops, who not only had to withstand the fire of bows and arrows, but also fought to the death with heavy infantry.

Those heavy infantry of the Song army wore heavy armor, held shields and robbed, and rushed forward in formation, the distance of fifteen steps was not long, but it was like the autumn wind sweeping away the leaves, killing the Xia army in all directions, they didn't care about the swords and guns falling on their bodies, just an impact slowly retreated, replaced by another team of impact.

Instead of cutting off the horse's legs, cutting the throat with a sharp blade, or directly smashing the head with a sledgehammer, the infantry army is better said, nothing more than a sword and axe.

Many Xia soldiers died tragically under the sword and gun, and many more still resisted tenaciously, and they were no longer fighting for victory, but for survival.
