1072. Chapter 1072: The Final Battle 4

The most terrible thing is that some people who have to wear armor will suffer foreign crimes, and they can only add grass and drape to shade the sun. Originally, it was wrapped in several layers of thick linen clothes, draped in heavy subway armor, and added a layer of grass clothing, it was really like being in a steamer, and the sweat soaked the linen clothes.

It must be said that the party members also attach great importance to force, and their standard iron armor is completely comparable to that of the Great Song Dynasty Forbidden Army, and the whole body protection is very perfect, which causes the heating area to increase, and it is difficult for the officials to have the energy to support it for a long time.

Ren Dejing saw that the sun was high, and had to order the iron harrier to retreat, these people were heavily armored, don't say that they can't bear it, even the war horses can't bear it, slow talk about the charge and fight, and in half an hour, people will faint.

For the other elite troops, it was simply torture, and seeing the Iron Harrier retreat, those armored men were resentful and cursed in low voices.

On the contrary, those who have no armor, or wear the most humble leather armor, gloating, they are all the lowest pretending commanders, who have suffered from the elite white eyes and bullying, and they are naturally very dissatisfied in their hearts, and they are very happy to see those so-called elites suffering.

Just when a few people were happy and a few people were worried, the Song army camp beat drums and shook the sky, and a Puma army came out and launched an attack directly on the left flank of the Xia army's front army.

Ren Dejing frowned slightly, it was too rude to open the village, and when he got the military intelligence report, he said in a deep voice: "Resist, the front army presses." ”

Just after the military order, there was a sky-shattering drum sound from the south, Ren Dejing's face changed, but he saw a hurrying horse coming, shouting: "The southern flank has been attacked, and Mu Weidu has unified the army to ask Guogong for reinforcements."

Ren Dejing was stunned, and couldn't help but take a breath, this is taking the initiative! They obviously wanted to take his flank first, and said, "Tell him to command the army, let him hold on, and soon reinforcements will arrive." ”

At this time, Wang De's troops did not move, but more than 1,000 horse troops joined Xi Yuli's troops to launch an attack on Ren Dejing's capturing army on the southern flank.

There was no shortage of elite soldiers in the hands of the mother of the Dutong army, and Ren Dejing put 6,000 soldiers of the captured army on the south wing, all of them horse army. Although more than half of these so-called elites are newly replenished, they are also the burden of the former captured army, who have received strict military rations, and have obtained excellent armor battles from Xingqing's armor storehouse, compared with those miscellaneous soldiers, they are still quite combative.

Of course, he still has more than 10,000 soldiers and horses of various colors such as commanders and burdens, and the Song army has no more than 10,000 offensive troops, and the Song army is at a disadvantage in terms of troops.

However, the senior generals and colonels of the Xia army were generally pessimistic about the war, and their sense of battle was not strong, so they called for reinforcements at every turn, for fear that they would be swallowed by the tiger wolf Song army.

Dang Xiong led the horse army camp to cooperate with the party to join forces, and the brothers each led hundreds of horse troops as the front of the army, and plundered the southern flank of the Xia army, followed by the 6,000 horse infantry army of the Xiyu Li Division.

The Mammers did not engage each other directly, but staggered along the edge of the opponent's position, striking with bows and crossbows.

However, Xi Yuli had 5,000 infantry troops, formed a military formation to gradually contact the Xia army, and constantly attacked the Xia army camp with small teams, which was the strategy of the Ma army's leaping forward and infantry army advancing repeatedly.

War is not just a military battle, since it is a fortification, you must be prepared, Ren Dejing is not a fool, at least military common sense is still understood. Whether it is a defensive battle or an offensive battle, as long as it is not a sudden encounter, there must be a simple camp defense, which can not only rely on the guards, but also allow the soldiers to rest.

This is the victory recorded in the historical records, today you build a base, tomorrow I build a base, even if it is a field battle, there will be a camp-like fortress.

The southern flank of the Xia army was based on a company of camps and villages, a large number of infantry troops were fortified inside and outside, and thousands of captured troops were used as the defense line of mobile forces.

The battle on the southern flank was very fierce from the beginning, and Xi Yuli was anxious to show his face, and when he came up, he threw himself into the battle of the infantry army.

The Xia army's vigilant troops could not withstand the Ma army's attack and continued to retreat, and the infantry army composed of Dangxiang, Han, and Uighurs unswervingly advanced and launched a fierce offensive against the camp.

After only half an hour, the sixth village at the top of the southern wing of the Xia army was captured by the Song army, and the infantry army killed the defenders of the pass, and the horse army led by Dang Xiong rushed into the camp and slaughtered, many people died tragically, and many people abandoned the army and surrendered.

Dangxiong, originally to escort the grain road, because the Xia army continued to retreat north, there was no need for intensive protection of the grain road, half of the township army troops went north to participate in the war, and the remaining troops joined the transfer force, he was also restarted because of his military exploits, and became the commander of the new horse barracks.

Although the number of this newly formed horse army is not large, most of the war horses are captured, and most of the officials are the original Xia army, but they are serving the Great Song Dynasty and are extremely strong in combat.

He wanted bloody revenge, killing to restore his reputation, and using the blood of the Xia army to wash away the shame of the dismissal of Weiheng Brigade Town.

The Ma army slaughtered on a large scale, even if they were still the Xia army not long ago, but today as the forbidden army of the Great Song Dynasty, they mercilessly slaughtered the former robes, and there were no ZÀI prisoners at all, and the remnants of the Xia army were frightened and fled one after another, but where could they escape.

"Don't stop, take advantage of the victory to pursue, and take the two villages next to you." Xi Yu Lili is also a veteran, taking advantage of the momentum like a rainbow to hurry into the army, and when he is relieved, he will relax, he needs to lay down three stockades and establish a stable defensive position.

The Song army continued to attack Sanzhai, but also suffered heavy damage, and the party was attacked by a group of captured troops, and he was surrounded by a team of soldiers and horses, and the situation was extremely dangerous.

When Dang Xiong got the news, he immediately organized more than 100 cavalry to launch a frontal assault, and even forcibly scattered the 400 captivators, and killed them together with Dang Yan.

In this way, Mu Weiqi's panic became a reality, the main force of Wang De's army was not dispatched, and the miscellaneous army of less than 10,000 people actually knocked down him near Dazhai, which was unimaginable in ordinary times.

The Song army brought a bed crossbow and shot at 300 steps close to the wall, but the Xia army did not counterattack. The walls of the civil structure collapsed in many places, some wooden watchtowers were also knocked down by large arrows, and many defenders were shot.

What's more, the Song army used medicine arrows and pear flower arrows, which were simply unbearable for the defenders, and raging fires were ignited in many places, and the fire spread in the camp, and there were scorching waves everywhere, many people were burned to death, and many more people howled unbridled in despair without scruples.

The point is that Mu Wei beggar neither organized a counterattack, nor did she order the captive army to send troops, which is very weird.

Compared with the heat of the southern flank, the northern flank was relatively calm, and the 9,000 men of Wei Liluo and Li Shifu's troops did not move.

Qiu Yun looked at the dusty battlefield from afar, almost staring, his face was full of determination.
