Chapter 1302: The Mound of the Scarlet Sun
Feng Yuan didn't care about Li Cheng, in his opinion, the Jin army used the light baggage vehicle of the Song army, which was a painting tiger and not an anti-cat, and the four-wheeled light baggage vehicle, whether it was established or used, was different from the two-wheeled vehicle, and the troops without training could not exert combat effectiveness. {We don't write, we're just web word porters.} -
Although he did not understand what an infantry fighting vehicle or an armored personnel carrier was, under the guidance of Wang Xiu, he was in charge of all types of vehicles through the supervision of the vehicles and soldiers, and used all types of vehicles well.
It's definitely not something you can use to simply marshall, and the bulls will kill it coaxingly, it will only cause the power of the infantry army to be sharply reduced.
After thousands of years of evolution, any military formation has the rationality of its existence and can also give full play to the maximum combat effectiveness of the infantry army. If you forcibly add a kind of main battle equipment without strict marshalling and long-term training and testing, it will definitely disrupt the offensive and defensive functions of the original formation and complicate tactical military orders.
The commander of the car brigade is Gao Xiao, who is one of the eight hundred patrols of the country, once followed Gao Ping to fight in Huaishang in the front of the palace, but his career was not smooth, and he was still a seven-rank military attache for many years, which can be called a white head.
The year before last, he was transferred to the Commander of the Commander of the Cavalry, and was reused by Feng Yuan, and was given the rank of Assassin of Yaoqun, and he was supposed to stay in the Metropolitan Supervisor Division honestly, as the Commander of the Coach Elementary School to supervise and train the Commanders, but under the recommendation of Feng Yuan, he went to the battlefield to command the Fleet Brigade Town, and realized his desire to rush to the battlefield.
The rook battalions drawn from the various armies of the palace front division are composed of mobile strike forces directly under the command of the capital, and the lineup is extremely luxurious, with four chariot battalions, two horse battalions, and one infantry cavalry battalion, plus the support of the remnants of the first brigade of the Japanese army, he is absolutely confident that he will not hold the position, but defeat the Jin army.
Those foot soldiers equipped with light baggage carts, the formation of a military formation looked extremely vast and magnificent, but in his eyes it was useless, and it was not vulnerable at all.
What he was worried about was that the opponent had a large number of generals and the support of the horse army, so it would not be good for the chariot soldiers to fall into a static state, although he was not afraid of the impact of the horse army, but he could not hinder the continuous attack of the horse army.
When the black pressure of the Jin army came, Gao Xiao did not have a static defense, and took the initiative to attack, the defense of the chariot soldiers is indeed solid, far exceeding the defense of the light baggage vehicle, and the offensive operation is more sharp, he has a deep Feng Yuan's teachings, and he has never thought about defense from the beginning.
Two chariot battalions plus two horse battalions launched an offensive from the east, with the chariot troops carrying out a frontal assault, while the Ma army made a detour from the flank and directly attacked the Jin army's alert troops.
This is the impact of more than 2,000 people, the scale is also quite magnificent, the smoke and dust raised by the chariot, and the sound of the roaring rolling wheels, even if there is the protection of the baggage vehicle, it also makes the Jin army infantry frightened, and they don't understand how to use the light baggage vehicle to fight, they can only hide behind the car.
In the eyes of the Great Song Dynasty chariot soldiers, the defense of light baggage vehicles is as weak as paper paste, even if they can exercise, those elite infantry troops equipped with light baggage vehicles are also defeated nine times out of ten, not to mention these miscellaneous armies of captives.
However, what Li Cheng was waiting for was the counterattack of the Song army, he had a cruel smile on his face, he had always had a reputation for cherishing soldiers, he didn't care about the safety of the left flank at all, but the soldiers were divided into two ways, all the way to suppress the battle formation of the chariot soldiers, and all the way directly interspersed, coming in the direction of the mound, and the target was Feng Yuan.
At this time, Feng Yuan's position did not have too many guards and horses.
The remaining two chariot battalions in Beizhai, as well as an infantry battalion, were not directly fought against the Jin army, but were protected by more than 2,000 township army archers.
The attack of the Jin army did not cause panic in the Song army, there was Feng Yuan's reserve camp around the mound, as well as some troops from the Shenwei Dragon Guard, and there was a Minfu village, which could be reinforced by the Shenwei Dragon Guard camp, Feng Yuan was quite confident, at least able to hold on independently.
He never thought that he was impregnable, as long as you guarded the village, you would definitely be beaten in by others.
The first batch of Jin troops was the horse army, they just arrived at the mound, they were condescending to the Song army's strong crossbows and fierce fire, using medicine arrows, this kind of arrows are far less powerful than iron shells, but they are also quite lethal, causing a lot of casualties in the Jin army.
In particular, when it explodes on the iron armor, not only the flesh and blood of the people are blown up, but the iron pieces splashed on the iron frame also become a sharp weapon to kill and injure the cavalry around, and often one person is hit by an arrow and several people are unlucky.
With the arrival of the Jin army's foot soldiers, they began to attack the mound, the Song army fired three rounds of non-stop shooting, and the foot soldiers of the concession army were washed by the crossbow rain and fire, and no one in the first few rows could step on the slope of the mound ten steps away, either by the crossbow arrows to the ground, or by the big guns to death, and some people were blown up by medicine arrows, so that the people behind were not stepping on the soil, but the broken flesh of people, which was disgusting.
"Charge me upward, don't hesitate."
"Rush up and take down their manager."
"Quick, don't wait for death, kill them for me."
The generals and colonels of the Jin army shouted hurriedly, and the foot soldiers of the Jin army mustered up their courage and began to speed up with a roar, rushing towards the mound, which was not too high, and no one wanted to delay time to become a victim of crossbow arrows, only by taking the mound could they guarantee their lives.
Feng Yuan's eyes were cold, since he had set up his command structure on the dirt slope, he expected that the Jin army would launch a surprise attack, in order to make it easier to look down on the battlefield, the risk was still worth it.
He kept issuing brief military orders, ignoring the offensive that the Jin army was unfolding, and was extremely calm.
There are only a few wooden fences under the mound, but they have to withstand the fierce fire of the Jin army, he put into the reserve camp at the first time, whether the first wave can withstand is the key, because it is an internal battle, the Jin army can not have enough time, unless they open up Beizhai, otherwise they can only delay time, and they are all surrounded and annihilated by the Song army.
Therefore, he used the strongest troops, and more than 300 reserve guards were definitely the elite of the elite, and no one took them out to consume at will, but he did not hesitate to enter the battle, as long as he dragged the other party.
Don't underestimate the wooden fence, in the fierce charge confrontation, it can delay the attack of the Jin army, not to mention that around the wooden fence, there are many upside-down wooden thorns, and the spikes are exposed on the ground, which makes the Jin army's foot soldiers extremely headache, and they are even careful to walk, and what kind of charge is it nonsense.
However, they were outnumbered and filled a path with their lives, and their archers also fought back, and the Song army behind the wooden fence also suffered casualties.
