Chapter 1282: The Death of Gao Ping in the Scarlet Sun
The final decisive battle finally began, and the Jin army used the time to adjust its deployment, giving up the pursuit of the remnants of the 7th Brigade of Tianwu and the 1st Brigade of the Japanese Army, and gradually pressing on the 10th and 15th Brigades. At the same time, nearly 10,000 people were divided to form a defensive line to guard against possible support from the Song army in the east of Qinshui.
The entire battlefield situation is tantamount to severing the connection between the eastern and western armies, and Gao Ping is in a catastrophe.
Wu Lie personally organized 700 heavy cavalry and assigned 3,000 cavalry to prepare to implement the standard tactics of the Jin army, plundering on both flanks and breaking through in the middle, in an attempt to defeat the Song army in one fell swoop.
Seven hundred heavy cavalry is not much, but it is the greatest strength he can come up with, these people are all men and horses in armor, they are simply armed to the teeth, but unfortunately as Hexi has been occupied by the Great Song Dynasty for many years, the excellent Liangzhou horses have been cut off, and the Liangzhou horses grazing by the Jin army are shrinking day by day, and the heavy cavalry is only 20,000.
Even if it is only 700 horses, the impact on the battlefield is huge, and its strong tenacity style is enough to rush back and forth for dozens of rounds.
Feng Yuan was not idle, he took advantage of the gap to withdraw the two chariot battalions, set up a temporary defensive position with crossbowmen, and reorganized the 20th Brigade Town, equipped it to make up for the battle damage, and let them quickly build a defensive camp, everything showed the contraction of strength and completely abandoned Gaoping.
Of course, he did not have a passive defense, but sent some horse teams composed of dozens of people to meet the remnants of the broken out, the number was not too many, but he also tried his best.
On the battlefield, as the marching drums sounded, the Han army troops approached in the north and south directions, and the six military formations gradually pressed in, like Mount Tai pressing on the top.
Two hundred paces, the forward soldiers on both sides let out a roar, and a rain of arrows fell down many people, and those Han army foot soldiers stubbornly approached the Song army formation.
An easy offensive operation turned into a desperate defense, the Song army hastily organized a military formation, and there was no perfect defensive equipment, and finally the Jin army approached, and the contact boundary between the two sides broke out in a scuffle.
In an instant, Bin released a strange blood light, and the fallen person was trampled into flesh even if he didn't die, and the patterns of two different colors were constantly twisting, pushing, changing, and crowding each other.
At this boundary of death, the power of any individual is so small, so insignificant, that it is impossible for anyone to survive for long, either to be killed by an opponent, or to be wounded and crushed to death.
Just as the two armies fought a bloody battle, with the sound of the unique war drums, the Jin army finally dispatched the horse army to show its fangs, and violently plundered the two wings of the Song army.
What frightened the Song army the most was that a column of heavy cavalry began to charge, this was the most feared Tiefutu, all armored cavalry, spears and iron shields, violent, facing the horse team like an iron mountain, even if it was well-equipped, everyone was afraid.
A soldier shouted, abandoned his spear and ran back, there will be two people if there is one, there will be three people if there are two, and there are more and more people retreating, and suddenly the forward queue of the entire army formation is in chaos, even Yu Hou and the escort teams of each team have fled.
Due to the disorganization of the Song army's troops, the heavy cavalry of the Jin army easily broke into the formation, and the front of the solid army array was scattered instantly, and everyone was invincible, causing the army formation to be torn apart as if it was broken in the wind.
A single charge was not enough to crush the Song army, and what was fatal was the tactics of the two wings and the approaching foot soldiers, who caused the army formation to be unable to be quickly bridged.
The most terrible thing is that from the beginning of the persuasion of the Jin army to surrender, the Song army was very confused and tired, and could not accept high-intensity combat, and this outcome was inevitable.
Gao Ping was already desperate, seeing the Jin army's series of blows, the opposing horse army wantonly crushed back and forth, like slaughtering lambs, many officials were at a loss, and had no power to fight back, let alone resist the swarming Jin army foot soldiers.
The combat effectiveness of these Han army foot soldiers is not good, if they face defeat, it will be a thousand miles of defeat, and it is extremely ferocious to fight a good battle.
Seeing that the general trend has gone, and the tired soldiers of the long-term battle are about to collapse at the touch of a button, where is the elite of the palace front division that he is proud of, his eyes turned red with anger, and then he sighed, it was helpless and angry, but it was so pale and helpless.
"Follow me." He did not give up, but insisted on grabbing the horse, and rushed to the Tiefu Tu, and killed it without hesitationใใใใใใ
The fog of the battlefield gradually dissipated, and the expected results were clearly visible, the 10th and 15th brigades of the Song Army collapsed, and they did not survive even a round, and the entire battlefield was no longer a battlefield, but a slaughterhouse.
At this time, Feng Yuan also made the final preparations, he established a ring defense position, with the Gongsheng Army as the core, the 28th Brigade Town and the troops directly under the military division are in the middle of the village, there is a village on each side, the north is composed of four car battalions, with more than 1,000 township army native soldiers composed of a large array of car soldiers, the grain and grass in the army is also between the village and the car array, stationed 7,000 township army native soldiers, this is the school review of the township army, not those who sign the township army, the combat effectiveness is still considerable.
In the south is the town camp of the 29th Brigade, in the east is the town camp of the 27th Brigade, and in the west there are two car battalions and the 20th Brigade town along the river. The defeated troops of the various divisions collected one after another were reorganized into battalions and stationed between Zhongzhai and Xizhai, which could not only support Xizhai but also reinforce the grain and grass Dazhai at any time.
He attached great importance to the defense of the riverbank, which was a barrier to ensure his defense, and deployed long-range stone throwers and bed crossbows, as long as the Jin army dared to enter the strike range, the merciless blow would be met head-on.
However, the Song army sent a small team of horses to the rescue, but they made a lot of gains, and they rescued a lot of robes, so that the defense force was strengthened.
Feng Yuan was dressed in half armor, his eyes were far away, his expression was determined, and the battlefield of killing in the distance did not affect his calmness.
Chen Ming and Fang Zhen saw it in their eyes, but they admired it in their hearts, whether it was rational or calm, this royal general was remarkable.
"Looks like it's over!" Feng Yuan put down the slender cylinder, his expression was a little lost, the army of nearly 30,000 elites was still the elite of the front division of the palace, and it would be over in one day, and no one would be comfortable.
Chen Ming and Fang Zhen saw the things in Feng Yuan's hands, and flashed out of the lookout glasses almost at the same time, this is a rare thing! Qin Min also has one, it is said to be a fine product of Zhongshan Academy, it has not yet reached the stage of mass production, high-precision lenses are very rare, the success rate is extremely low, only less than ten are made, they saw it in Feng Yuan's hands.
Xie Man rushed over, and of course, there was also the Gong Saint Army's Duyu Hou Du Sheng, they had just arrived at Feng Yuan's side, Xie Man said loudly: "Tai Lieutenant, the golden cavalry is coming, and the handsome is in danger!" I am willing to lead the 20 brigades to kill it. โ
