1087. Chapter 1087: Total Victory
They are different from the Iron Harrier, the Iron Harrier people and horses are all heavily armoured, it is difficult to make a large-scale maneuver to get rid of the unfavorable situation, and can only be face-to-face with the Song army on a small range of battlefields, once surrounded will be powerless to return to the sky, in the Song Army chariot and horse infantry joint operations, the disadvantage is more and more obvious, either try to kill or be killed, there is no second way to go.
Even if you want to escape from the battle, you have to fight a bloody way, and if you want to take off your armor and abandon the army to escape, it is simply wishful thinking, and you usually have to rely on the help of two burdens to complete the armor and get on the horse, how can there be conditions in the battle.
The heavy cavalry of the Song army was also armored, but it did not go to the extreme of heavy weight, and the horses were all made of leather armor, and the iron leaf was used in the front section, which had a higher mobility than the iron harrier.
However, Feng Yuan was not optimistic about the heavy cavalry, but interspersed with chariot soldiers and intercepted the iron harriers with infantry troops, which also achieved great results, and finally sent heavy cavalry to chase and kill.
The remnants of the Iron Harriers were destined to be abandoned, but they were worthy of the name of elite soldiers, in the hurry of a general, gathered more than four or five hundred people, and they were the last elite, in the face of the surging Jingsai Iron Cavalry, they roared to meet them.
The confrontation between the two heavy cavalry also heralded the end of the battle, the Song army wanted to end the battle with heavy cavalry, and the iron harrier wanted to use the destruction of miรจ to prove that even if they were destroyed, they were the real elite soldiers in the world, the iron floating slaughter of the Jin army, the Jingsai iron cavalry of the Song army, and the Xiao cavalry army were just defeated generals.
The heavy cavalry of the Song army is not alone, and the Iron Harrier is not alone, they all have a coordinated infantry army, but unfortunately today, the Iron Harrier is fighting alone, even if there are a small number of mountain battles, it is too few people.
These heavy cavalry belonged to the Western Army, and their equipment was naturally specifically aimed at the Iron Harrier, and the short-handled battle axe was a must for everyone.
The heavy infantry that followed also faced the hill, and their outnumbered superiority was swift to disperse them.
These heavy infantry, armed with iron rods and long knives, cooperated with the heavy cavalry to strangle the iron harriers,
Constantly people died under heavy blows, corpses trapped on horseback, let the lost owner of the war horse neighed and led the owner to rush, and some people's heads were cut off by the big knife, headless corpses lying on the horse's back and running back and forth, the scene was terrifying.
Soon, the battle ended without any suspense, the Iron Harrier lost its combat effectiveness, and even the hope of escape was ruthlessly crushed, and finally entered into organized killing.
With the collapse of the Iron Harrier, the mountain was also in a desperate situation, and under the wanton crushing of the Song army's war horses, they could no longer endure the cruel torment, and their will to fight completely collapsed.
With the defeat of the two elites, Wu Luo Mo also began to withdraw from the battle, and the remaining Xia army completely collapsed, they understood that they had been abandoned, and they were obviously resisting just now, and now they had begun to surrender, or flee north.
The Song army did not encircle and strangle, but let go of a way out of life and let the rout flee northward, while they shot and killed wantonly on the left and right, which was simply a hunt.
Feng Yuan felt that the Song army brutally hunted and killed the surrendered troops, and hurriedly ordered all parts to send troops, watch and collect the prisoners, and did not kill without authorization, and those who violated the order were beheaded, which made the bloody rain on the battlefield much lighter, at least there was no organized killing.
Looking at the north, the vigilant troops left by the Song army, and then at the crowded Xia army fleeing for their lives, he couldn't help but smile bitterly and shook his head, and said, "Traitors and traitors are misleading the country!" โ
"All the commanders of the army, they don't have many soldiers and horses left, and there is still a way to survive if they are killed."
"Where to go?" Didn't Luo Mo roll his eyes, as a general of his level, he knows his family and country very well, and the army of others has arrived in Xingqing, where else can you flee to? Go to Shazhou, or save it! I'm afraid that if there is no place, they will have to be buried in the Gobi Desert, and now they have no way to enter the heavens and no way to enter the earth.
"Then go back and fight."
"Alright, take root, put up the banner and surrender." Luo Mo said in frustration, he killed Ren Chuncong to vent his anger, and led the army to flee north, not to break through, but to gather the remnants of the army to plan to surrender.
Not to mention surrendering in a fierce battle, how much hope you can have for survival, even if you survive, you are destined to be ordinary. Gathering a single army will increase the bargaining chips, at least it can get the attention of the top level of the Song army, and also buy the foreshadowing for future benefits.
"All the army, we can't fight, we still have to think twice."
"What to fight? Ren Dejing has defeated the last old bottom, and the armies of all walks of life have long gathered in Xingqing, I am afraid that even His Majesty is ...... Hey, don't say more, it's too late if you don't choose. Wu Luo Mo didn't look at the stunned faces of his subordinates, waved his hand, and rode away in silence.
A general battle, with the surrender of Wu Luomo, finally came to an end.
It was a campaign, and Ren Dejing led an army of more than 110,000 people, which was originally determined to win, take Shibaozhai, obtain a strategic place that could be advanced and retreated, and talk to the Song army about the conditions.
But who thought that the beaten wolf was unbearable, almost the whole army was annihilated, both of them surrendered with their troops, almost the entire rear army was captured, and the iron harrier and the mountain were all wiped out.
Ren Dejing collected the defeated soldiers, and fled into Jingzhou with only a few thousand people, and was immediately surrounded by the Song army, and he was afraid all day long.
When the news of the defeat came, Li Renxiao's eyes were frightened, his face was particularly pale, and cold sweat oozed from his forehead.
Gan Dao Chong, Yi Yan, Ren Deren stood under the head, Gan Dao Chong's eyes were calm, his face was wooden, and the corners of his eyes were quite ruthless, and from time to time he swept over Ren Deren, who was in doubt.
At this time, Ren Deren's heart was very nervous, this battle was presided over by Ren Dejing, but was almost wiped out by the whole army, Ren Chuncong died on the battlefield, Ren Dejing did not return to Xingqing, but closed the city in Jingzhou to defend himself, and even expressed his gratitude for the night of the crime, which made him extremely frightened in his heart, for fear of disaster to him.
"What to do? The army of the Southern Dynasties is gathering, but our army is defeated, what do you think? Li Renxiao was a little angry, he was really annoyed, but he was helpless, he suddenly remembered something, and said: "Shift, how many soldiers are there in the city?" โ
It is the entanglement in his heart, the clan may be trusted, but he is by no means willing to be buried, and the situation is developing at the bottom Today, there is no room for maneuver.
Oh, maybe the Jurchens can go to war with the Southern Dynasties, so what? Xia lost the capital to gamble, and even if the Song army was repulsed, it would be destroyed by the Jurchens, and there was no third option.
"Your Majesty, the proton army, the garrison army plus other soldiers and horses, that is, more than 30,000 people can fight."
