Chapter 104: It's Over, I've Met a Maniac! (Ask for collection, ask for recommendation)

A horizontal formation of 1,600,700 Jurchen armor warriors had already spread out on an open field in front of Shiyama.

This open space was actually cleared by Han Shizhong for the infantry cavalry to move in the battalion. Just now, Han Shizhong, Liu Yan, and Yang Weizhong turned the troops over through this road.

Sheyama also guessed the role of the road in the camp, so he divided into two teams with more than 400 paces and marched along the road from the left and right, setting fire to create chaos as he went. The remaining 2,000 or so were divided into three parts.

In the first part, about 400 people were guarding the retreat - Sheyema didn't know that there were only 10,000 people in the hands of "Hun King Zhao Mujie", and he thought that the army of the Song people was constantly marching into Niangzi Pass! So he didn't dare to fight, so he wanted to find some yards and accept it when he saw it.

In the second part, about 200 cavalry surrounded Shiyama, preparing to chase and kill the Jurchen warriors who dismounted on foot after defeating the enemy, so as to expand the results of the battle.

The third part is the 1,600 or 700 Jurchen armor soldiers in front of them, and they are now waiting for the order of Sheyema, and they are going to launch a charge!

On the other side of them were the Song infantry with a slightly smaller number and the Song knights with less than 100 horsemen.

At first glance, it seems that the two sides are evenly matched. But Wanyan Sheyema's side is the Dajin Heavenly Soldier, and on the opposite side is the Song Army, which is a head worse in combat effectiveness. If it was daytime, the Song army would still be able to rely on the power of their Eight Bull Crossbows and Divine Arm Bows at a long distance.

But now it's night, and the power of the Divine Arm Bow has been greatly reduced, and the Eight Bull Crossbow has not seen a move since the time when Sheyema led the troops to attack this Song military camp...... I guess it didn't arrive, right?

After taking advantage of the moonlight, he carefully observed the battle formation of the Song army, and after determining that the advantage was really on his side, he no longer hesitated, and said loudly to the left and right: "Beat the drums, blow the horns, and tell the sons to attack!" ”

The left and right voices were loudly answered, followed by the sound of drums and trumpets. The Jurchen warriors opened their throats and shouted forward, the hard soldiers with spears in front, and the warriors with maces and bones held back. A large array of 1,000 or hundreds of people crushed forward like a moving wall.

When Han Shizhong saw Jin Bing moving, he also shouted: "Drumming!" Forward! ”

It's night, so the distance between the two sides is very close - you can't see each other for more than a hundred steps, and when you turn back to hedge, you will be big. At close range, the Divine Arm Bow is not as efficient as the Jurchen Bow because of its slow rate of fire, so Han Shizhong will not let his subordinates shoot arrows, so it is better to pick up the spear and axe and fight hand-to-hand combat!

To be honest, no matter how powerful the bow and crossbow are, the lethality in field combat is still not as good as that of hand-to-hand combat. One of the main reasons for the weak attack ability of the Song army was actually the excessive reliance on bows and crossbows...... And the proportion of strong men who can wear heavy armor, hold spears, knives and axes, and take the lead in battle is too low among the soldiers.

Moreover, the total strength of the Song army, except for a very small period of time (such as when there was only one Caizhou left in the Dajin Kingdom), did not reach the level where it could drown the Jin people.

In fact, in most cases, if you don't count the rebel armies whose numbers are very erratic and whose combat effectiveness is even more mysterious, and only count the real numbers of the regular Song army, the Song army has never had any advantage.

And the numerically superior (or at least comparable) Jin soldiers have a huge mobility advantage, which means that they can concentrate more troops on local battlefields.

Therefore, the number of hard-armed soldiers of the Jin army and the number of heavily armored soldiers of the Song army who were far less than them was the most common occurrence......

And this night, as it was, the number of people was equal, the number of heavily armored soldiers was also equal, and neither side was afraid of the other's situation, and Shiyama was also the second time he encountered it (the first time was yesterday during the day).

The head-to-head confrontation of two equal hoplites was, of course, bloody and brutal!

On both sides were heavily armored pikemen, who walked briskly at first, and when they approached each other, they ran wildly to help the spears. With a muffled sound of "bang bang bang" and loud shouts, the bloodiest scene of this confrontation took place.

In front of the battle formations of both sides, there were armor soldiers who had been stabbed through the body with spears...... The spear pierced the body, no matter what the part, it was basically hopeless, only the mouth was spitting blood, dying, and letting out a dying wail, which was unbearable to see and hear.

If anyone can take a closer look, they will probably find that in this attack, the losses of the Song army are still greater than those of the Jin soldiers...... The Jin people's hard army has better physical strength, and they have also captured a lot of them after years of war, so most of them are wearing double heavy armor, and there is a greater probability that they can withstand the blow of the opponent's spear!

Although the Song army's infantry armor is also quite strong, it is only one layer after all, and these armors are all official-made...... This quality is not very reliable, so the probability of being pierced is greater.

However, the advantage obtained by the Jin soldiers was not enough to make the Song army on the opposite side collapse, but they were forced to retreat a little - they were the Song army that took the "shares" of the Great Song Dynasty, where did they collapse so easily?

The king said that he would share the world with them......

"Kill the gold thief! ...... the world"

I don't know which soldier who still remembered Zhao Kai's speech during the day took the lead and shouted, and the soldiers of the Song army, who had just been forced to retreat a few steps, immediately felt like they had been beaten with chicken blood, and shouted while opening their throats while struggling forward.

And in the process of moving forward in this round, the pikemen and axe soldiers of the Song army also completed the replacement, and the ones standing in the front row were no longer spearmen, but were replaced by armor soldiers holding long-handled knives and axes.

These armorers were shoulder to shoulder, swinging their swords and axes neatly, slashing at the Jurchen armor soldiers opposite. The spearmen were also replaced by the spearmen armed with maces and bones, and they also stood shoulder to shoulder like their opponents, greeting them with maces and bones.

This is the fight between the hoplites...... They all use blades that are a little heavy, and the slender swords are not used at all.

And wearing heavy armor and fighting with heavy long blades is actually a work of strength...... It's not martial arts, it's explosive power and staying power.

Of course, this kind of battle is also a battle formation. Because you have to keep replacing, or no matter how strong you are, you will probably die of exhaustion after cutting for an hour.

Therefore, on the battlefield of heavy armor fighting, the side with poor physical strength can also maintain it for a period of time through rotation.

But if the opponent's array is just as good, then failure is also a matter of time......

As time passed, there were more and more corpses in front of the two sides, and the casualties of the Song army were obviously greater than those of the opponent, and they were already a little too late to support it!

But I can't support it, and I have to grit my teeth to support it!

It's going to win!

It's about to win!

I'm about to win......

Why haven't you won yet!

Wan Yan Sheye saw that the Song army in front of him was retreating, but his heart was becoming more and more anxious...... These Song troops are too tenacious!

It's clear that he's already suffered heavy losses and his strength is almost exhausted, but he still fights to the death!

The 800,000 forbidden troops of the Great Song Dynasty won't all be so strong, right?

It's all going to be that strong...... Most of the tens of thousands of brothers of the Eastern Route Army are no longer alive!

At this moment, Han Shizhong suddenly opened his throat and shouted: "Reinforcements are coming!" Reinforcements are coming...... Brethren, the King is coming! ”

Hearing Han Shizhong's voice, the Song Army Sergeant, who was already about to lose his support, shouted frantically as if he had been beaten with chicken blood.

"The king is here! The king is coming......"

Wan Yan Sheye Ma was taken aback by this sudden shout, what happened to this? Why are you crazy again? Are you, the king of Hun the Great Song Dynasty, all the madmen gathered together into an army?

"Cavalry...... Meng'an, the cavalry of the Song people rushed over! ”

Cavalry?

Wanyan Sheye Ma heard someone shouting around him, so he subconsciously looked at the place where Han Shizhong was, but he didn't move!

Just as he was wondering, he heard the sound of horses' hooves getting louder and closer, accompanied by the shouts of an unknown number of people.

Sheyama turned his head to look at the voice, only to see a large group of cavalry faintly appearing in the darkness! Looking at their formation, it seems to be very dense, as if they were in the middle of the day!

Wan Yan She's eyes widened, and he couldn't believe his eyes.

How is this possible? It's so dark...... And there are no torches to illuminate the bonfire, so the cavalry group assault is launched in such a dark light!

Where did this madman come from?
