Chapter 067: Battle Array

Tan Xiong waved away the golden man in front of him with a knife, and together with Xu San, he stood in a row with Shao Xing, and the three of them raised their sharp blades and chests together against the golden soldiers who were surrounded by heavy overlaps.

How can the warriors of the battlefield and the horse-leather shroud, bend their knees and bow their heads in front of the tyrannical and murderous invaders!

Shao Xing wiped the blood on his hand on his clothes, felt out the last earth-shattering thunder on his waist, held it in his hand, crushed the wax seal, polished the fire fold, and shouted loudly: "Straight mother thief, come, come up!"

The golden soldiers formed a big circle, but no one came up, it seemed that they were not only afraid of the strength of these people, but also afraid of the power of the thunder.

Shao Xing looked around, except for the three of himself and the other two scouts who confronted Jin Bing, the rest of the brothers should have been killed.

Shao Xing's eyes were blood-red, and he said loudly: "Brothers, we are going to die here today, are you afraid?"

Xu San clenched the Pu knife in his hand and said loudly: "Shao Dutou, I have killed three thieves today, and I haven't killed ten people yet, I'm unwilling!"

Tan Xiong looked around at the golden people around him, and said softly: "If you die, you will die, I will kill at least two golden dogs in a while, but I will resist ...... I can't pay for the lives of my dead relatives!"

Thinking of his relatives who died tragically, Tan Xiong's tears couldn't help but fall. In his heart, he had already regarded his unmarried sister-in-law as a family.

Shao Xing nodded and said, "Good brother, you also killed three golden dogs, let's meet our brothers on the Huangquan Road!"

The three of them took a long breath and clenched their weapons tightly, preparing for the final battle.

Suddenly, the desolate horn sounded, and the golden soldiers withdrew from the hillside one after another, heading towards the mountain road, and after only a moment's work, the hillside was empty.

Shao Xing's heart was excited, and he didn't care about fatigue, so he ran a few steps, climbed the high slope, and looked south.

The dust is flying, the flag covers the sun, the swords and guns are like a forest, and the Song army of the brigade is mighty and mighty, and it is coming north.

Shao Xing's eyes were hot, and then he beat his chest and said: "Why is the general so confused, why did he chase after him instead of forming up his troops and waiting for the rear army?"

"The general still remembers me and other brothers!"

Xu San fell to the ground all of a sudden, the bones in his body seemed to fall apart, and he groaned and said:

"Shao Dutou is a little restless. The military regulations were strict, and Yang Commander would never dare to disobey the military order, presumably the army of Xianggong followed. ”

For the rest of his life after the catastrophe, Tan Xiong was in shock, he looked at the Song army all over the mountains, looked carefully, and nodded again and again.

"It was not only the front army that came, but also the cavalry of the left army and the guerrilla army. Now, it's enough for a thief to drink a pot!"

Shao Xing looked at the corpses of the scouts around him in different ways, and couldn't help but let out a long sigh.

50 elite scouts, almost all wiped out, it seems that they have to be rebuilt again.

"Shao Dutou, are you still there?"

Down the hillside, a weak cry was suddenly heard.

Several people were startled at first, and Xu San immediately shouted loudly.

"It's He Zhongwang, I can't imagine that he is still alive!"

Several people supported each other and came to the ravine, and sure enough, He Zhongwang was lying on the body of a golden soldier, weak and weak.

"He Zhongwang, are you okay?"

Xu San was full of tears and stepped forward to ask.

"It's okay, try to break a leg on your shit!"

He Zhongwang's eyes narrowed, if it weren't for Jin Bing falling below and making a mat, he would have died a long time ago.

"Okay, okay, as long as you're okay, my leg is broken!"

Several people were overjoyed, helped He Zhongwang up, and everyone came to the open exit together, looking towards the battlefield where the two armies were facing each other.

On the eastern wilderness of the mountain in front of the temple, two huge phalanxes slowly came. On the flanks of the two phalanxes, each has a group of cavalry marching slowly, and in the fluttering flags, you can see three flags of the front army, the left army and the guerrilla army.

As the steel forest advanced step by step, the Jurchen knights in front of the cavalry formation gradually became solemn.

The Song army marched like a wall, spears like a forest, the cold light on the iron armor and blades was shining, and the elite of the soldiers was unprecedented.

When they arrived at the Jurchen cavalry array, the Song soldiers stopped, and instantly formed a rectangular battle array, with two wings in the front row of the rectangle, stretching out a few meters to each side, like a thick "T" shape.

A barrier line was quickly erected on the periphery of the "T" formation. Each horse is made of three seven-foot spears with spear heads at both ends, resembling a "human" character, with the tip of the spear pointing outwards and an iron shaft pierced in the middle. All the infantry were in the rejecting line, and the "T" had 500 cavalry behind each of the two ears, sweeping for the infantry.

In the rectangular frame of horses, the front row is a pikeman sitting on the ground, 500 men on the left and right armies, a total of 1,000 men. These men were heavily armoured, pointed the sharp points of their spears straight ahead, and were not allowed to get up until a military order was issued.

Behind the pikemen were half-kneeling archers, 600 men on the left and right armies, for a total of 12,00 people. Archers are also divided into strong archers and sub-strong archers, each with half and half of each, shooting at 70 and 50 steps, respectively.

The archers were mixed with 500 grenadiers, one by one, staring at the golden army in front.

Then there is the Song army's big killing weapon, that is, the bed crossbow, which is also 500 people each, a total of 1,000 people, 40 bed crossbows per army, a total of 80 bed crossbows.

Behind the bed crossbow was a reserve army of 500 men each, and behind the reserve army was the same 500 pikemen in heavy armor to prevent the gold soldiers from sneaking up from behind.

This is the "stacked array" used by the Song army to deal with the cavalry, but because there are not so many archers, it can only be regarded as a flexible "stacked array".

The desolate horn sounded continuously, and the Jurchen cavalry formation slowly advanced, and stopped less than two miles away from the Song soldiers' phalanx.

Under the autumn sun, on the field, thousands of troops and horses confronted each other, and there was a desolate atmosphere. The drums and horns are contending, and the battlefield of the Jin Ge Iron Horse always makes people adrenaline rush.

"Kill a few more golden people, and you will have more military merits. Whoever dares to escape from the battle will know what will happen!"

The irresolute elements in the big array were all shivering, and the bloody scene of the deserters in the battle of Guyukou is especially vivid.

Yang Jin rode a war horse and walked slowly in the large array.

"In the battle of Guyukou, Lao Tzu was already disgraced. If anyone escapes again, don't blame Lao Tzu's sword!"

Cowbell-like eyes swept over the soldiers, and all of them straightened their backs and chests.

"Brothers, what's so terrible about Fanzi, if your head is cut off, you will still die!"

Wang Yan walked around in the middle of the phalanx with a horse, his face was solemn, and the infantry against the cavalry made him inexplicably under great pressure.

When fighting, follow the orders of the generals! The head is off, the bowl is a big scar, even if you die in battle, Xianggong will take care of your family. Who said that if you escape, not only will you lose your head, but your family will also be implicated! ”

After Wang Yan finished speaking, his eyes swept over the officers in the big town, and when he saw that they were all calm and relaxed, his heart was calm.

Sha Guzhi gently beat the war horse out of the battle formation, carefully looking at the Song army in front of him.

In the battle of the siege of Tokyo in the first year of Jingkang, he led the invincible Jurchen warriors to the south of the Yellow River, the capital of the Song people.

He participated in two bloody battles outside Tokyo. In the two bloody battles, the strict discipline of the Song army and the fearlessness of the soldiers made him three points hard.

Especially that Wang Song, an iron spear, was as brave as a man in the army, and almost killed the Jurchen prince Wanyan Zongwang on the spot.

"Loyal and righteous army, my Dajin's fierce enemy, Wang Song, my Dajin's "henchman"!"

Seeing the Song soldiers in front of him, Sha Guzhi couldn't help but say this sentence in his heart.

The Song soldiers I met today were solemn and neat, and in the face of the Jurchen Iron Cavalry, they dared to fight in the field, could it be that this was really Wang Song's team?

In the second half of yesterday night, he received a report from the rout, saying that Pantuo Pass had been captured by the Song soldiers, and the cavalry of Wanyan Samoulu was annihilated.

Seeing the formation of the Song soldiers, Sha Guzhi understood seven or eight points in his heart, and his heart was also five or six points cold, this must be Wang Song's loyal and righteous army has arrived!

"Let the rangers come forward and test it, and see how many of these Song dogs are on."

"General, is this necessary?"

Before the adjutant general's words fell, he had already received a whip in his face.

"Too much nonsense, do you want to disobey military orders?"

Sha Guzhi glared at a pair of bull's eyes, and the deputy general was frightened and hurriedly took the order.

The rangers of the Jin people kept harassing on the periphery, but they were driven away by the sweeping Song cavalry, and the feathered arrows of both sides galloped, and their casualties increased. The golden rangers couldn't penetrate it, and seeing that the other party's grenadiers were following again, the golden rangers had no choice but to retreat.

"A bunch of waste, even Song Gou's flanks can't rush in, I want you to have a fart!"

Sha Gu glanced at the trembling lieutenant general hatefully, and then looked at the Song army formation in front of him.

"General, the Song army on the opposite side is about 5,000 people, and the cavalry is 1,000 people. The Song army is in good order, and the soldiers are dark and strong, and they look a little good!"

The soldier stepped forward to report, his face worried. Sha Guzhi nodded, and said to the Jin general next to him: "Mo Li, take your subordinates to rush and explore Song Gou's reality!"

Mo Li responded loudly and said proudly: "These cowardly Song dogs will put up flowers." The warriors of my Dajin Dynasty have never lost to others in the field. Let these Song dogs see today, his Jurchen grandfather's sword is not good!"

Mo Li is a famous warrior in the army, the head of a thousand households, seeing that he is full of ambition and pride, Sha Guzhi frowned, and said sharply: "Mo Li, don't be careless, be careful of Song Gou's tricks!"

Mo left the order, and soon the 1,000 soldiers were assembled and set out in turn in front of the big array. 300 heavy armor soldiers wearing heavy armor and heavy iron scarves were in front, and 700 light armor archers, all neatly draped, turned over and got on their horses, one by one, violent, ready to move.

When the Jurchen cavalry engaged, there must be several rangers every time they encountered the enemy, leaping out of their horses, first observing the reality of the opponent's formation, or galloping to the opponent's left and right. If you win, the whole team will chase slowly, and if you lose, you will reunite and not disperse, and if you are divided and combined, you should be like a god, and people will fight for themselves, and you will win. That is, the shock armored cavalry is mixed with the archers.

The Jurchen cavalry cared more about the shooting power of the cavalry archers than the range, the bow power was only five buckets, the arrows were extremely long, and the sharpness was better than the sword. This is because the armor of the Song army is generally thicker, and the armor-piercing effect is better when shooting at close range.
