Chapter 286: The invincible charge of the Han army
Qiu Qiongying led 10,000 cavalry to meet the 5,000 Jin vassal army head-on, she knew that the pressure on the infantry on the right flank to block the cavalry was very great, and now the Han Wang cavalry had been entangled with the Jin State Tie Futu, and it was difficult to tell the winner for a while. If you want to relieve the pressure on the infantry, you can only end this point of battle as soon as possible.
10,000 cavalry set up a double dragon to go out to sea, 5,000 on the left and right, the intention is obvious, that is, Shuanglong went to sea and attacked the 5,000 Jin State vassals.
Xiao Zhiyi is an arrogant guy, he doesn't care about the Han army's Shuanglong Formation at all, he thinks that the Han army will play false, and cavalry combat is about strength. In the face of absolute strength, no conspiracy can succeed.
"Kill the past, kill all these southern barbarians, and snatch that girl."
Funny, in the eyes of the people of Liao, the people of Jin are all Southern Barbarians, Xiao Zhiyi fell in love with the stunning and heroic Qiu Qiongying at a glance, this guy is a little cowardly, after handing over the command to his younger brother Xiao Zhiqi, he led 2,000 cavalry to kill Qiu Qiongying's left flank. Xiao Zhiqi led 3,000 cavalry to the right and killed Guo Xuan.
Murong Yunqing was in charge of the right flank, and she saw that the Jin cavalry was covering up, so she led the cavalry to block it. Before leaving, Murong Yunqing discussed with her eldest sister Qiu Qiongying how to fight this battle. From the perspective of individual soldier ability, there is no doubt that the Jin army has the upper hand, and if you want to win, you must use the formation.
The premise of the Ssangyong Formation is that the strength of the army is more than the opponent, which is equivalent to sandwiching the enemy in the middle, regardless of whether the enemy divides his troops to fight, it does not matter, the two Han cavalry will gradually compress inward, and gradually complete the encirclement of the enemy.
Qiu Qiongying didn't expect that the commander of the Jin Army would rush towards her stupidly, and immediately understood what was going on, and she stabbed it with the silver dragon spear in her hand.
Although Xiao Zhiyi is lustful, it doesn't mean that he has no brains, how many female generals can go to the battlefield are vases? Seeing the beautiful woman's spear stabbing at him, he hurriedly used the three-pointed two-edged knife in his hand to block.
Just when the three-pointed two-edged knife was about to touch the silver dragon spear, Qiu Qiongying actually drew a move, she knew that the other party was a guy with infinite strength, and the collision of weapons was obviously her own loss, and if she wanted to win, she must use speed and skill, and she must not fight the enemy hard.
After pulling the silver dragon spear back, Qiu Qiongying directly stabbed the war horse under Xiao Zhiyi's crotch with the tip of the spear.
Immediately, he wanted to protect his people and his horse, and saw the silver dragon spear of the beautiful woman stabbing at the war horse. Xiao Zhiyi didn't panic, and hurriedly slashed at Qiu Qiongying's wrist with his three-pointed and two-edged knife.
Qiu Qiongying seemed to have long realized that the enemy would make this move, she was not nervous at all, and with a flip of her wrist, the silver dragon spear stabbed at Xiao Zhiyi's horse's head.
"Sweep through a thousand armies." The three-pointed two-edged knife in Xiao Zhiyi's hand swept directly over, this move was a blow to the stomach of even people and horses, no matter which one was hit, the battle would end immediately.
The silver dragon spear in Qiu Qiongying's hand quickly stabbed towards Xiao Zhiyi's throat, this move is a desperate way to fight with both sides, as long as it hits the opponent, the battle will be over, and at this time he is likely to be hit by the enemy. After all, in this state, if you want to hit the opponent, it will be difficult to dodge the enemy's attack.
Xiao Zhiyi didn't want to lose both sides with his opponent, so in the end he chose to dodge and dodge the fatal blow of the silver dragon spear, and at the same time, the speed of this guy's attack accelerated. attacked Qiu Qiongying and attacked the war horse, without any thoughts of pity and cherishing jade.
Just when Xu Xiao Zhiyi was speeding up the attack, Qiu Qiongying seemed unwilling to fight, and she urged her mount Fire Dragon Horse to run directly towards Murong Yunqing, and the speed was very fast.
Xiao Zhiyi is a little short of his head at this time, although this guy has amazing combat power and infinite strength, but he is actually a guy with developed limbs and a simple mind. He couldn't figure out what the beauty wanted to dare, and when he saw that Qiu Qiongying's younger brother Xiao Zhiqi was not suitable for killing him, his first reaction was that his younger brother was in danger.
Realizing that his younger brother was in danger, Xiao Zhiyi chased after him without hesitation.
Qiu Qiongying secretly looked behind her while running, and found that Xiao Zhiyi was chasing after her, so she hung the silver dragon spear on the saddle, drew out the flying knife and shot the bow left and right at the other party.
When he saw the other party hanging the gun on the saddle, Xiao Zhiyi had a premonition, he reacted as soon as Qiu Qiongying hit the flying knife, and quickly dodged the oncoming flying knife. It's a pity that the second flying knife came one after another, and this flying knife was aimed at the war horse.
The man dodged the throwing knife, but unfortunately the war horse did not dodge. The wounded war horse fell to the ground, pressing the unlucky Xiao Zhiyi heavily underneath, and just as this guy was struggling, the silver dragon spear stabbed over, impartially, and pierced the throat of this unlucky guy.
The dragons were leaderless, and the vassal army that had lost Xiao Zhiyi seemed to be flustered, and it was at this time that Xiao Zhiqi was also killed by Murong Yunqing.
The vassal army, which had no commander, was suddenly defeated and scattered. The vassal army is basically composed of Bohai people, Khitans, Xi people, Goryeo people and steppe tribes, and their combat effectiveness is not necessarily inferior to that of the Jin people. Of course, the premise is that when fighting a tailwind war, the combat effectiveness is extremely strong, but once it is frustrated and lost, it is a bit like the Song army, which is definitely fleeing from the wind and cannot form an army.
The vassal army is actually similar to a mercenary, don't expect how loyal you are, when you attack, it is a copycat version of the Jin army, and its combat effectiveness is extremely strong, which is why the Jin army fought smoothly at the beginning, almost invincible. But when he lost and retreated, it was definitely a copycat version of the Song army, and he fled directly from the wind, and he couldn't form an army, so he chose to flee directly, and he never had any contact with the battlefield.
Xiao Zhiyi, after Xiao Zhiqi died in battle, the leaderless vassal army of the dragon lost its former edge, and had no courage to fight bloodily.
Qiu Qiongying didn't have the time and energy to chase after this defeated mercenary, because the war was not over, but gradually entered the most brutal stage, and the bloody battle had just begun.
The duel between the three armies entered the most brutal stage of the war with the complete victory of Qiu Qiongying at the earliest. Qiu Qiongying knew that the battle of the Han King's cavalry to encircle and suppress Tiefutu was a strong dialogue, and his own cavalry could not be inserted, once he intervened, not only would he not be able to help the Han Wang's cavalry, but he would also be unhelpful.
It seems that the infantry should be helped, otherwise the infantry will not be able to withstand it.
couldn't stand it, the infantry formation was torn apart by the Jin cavalry, if it weren't for Hua Rong commanding the army to defend desperately, the big array would have been broken through, despite this, it was obvious that it was completely passive.
After all, it was the evolution of the local army that had been sparse for a long time, and its combat effectiveness was already very low, and it was already a miracle that the fierce Jin State cavalry could hold out for half an hour. With more than 7,000 casualties, although this large infantry formation may have been penetrated by the Jin cavalry, they still held their positions firmly and did not collapse in a large area.
The Jin cavalry who fell into the melee also suffered heavy casualties, killing seven or eight thousand infantry, but more than half of the Jin cavalry suffered casualties.
At this moment, the infantry has reached the end of the crossbow, and if it is not adjusted, there is no doubt that the infantry array will collapse at any time.
The infantry formation was scattered by the Jin cavalry, and signs of collapse had appeared. The infantry could no longer hold on, and the large array could collapse at any time.
Miracle, this is definitely a miracle, all along, the Song army's formation, as long as it is torn apart by the cavalry, will quickly rout, this is the most common defeat of the Great Song forbidden army in the 160 years since the founding of the Great Song Dynasty. If the big array is not torn apart, then the Song army will have a small victory, but once the big array is torn apart, it will be defeated in a large area and will not be able to form an army.
However, this time, not only was the big array torn open a big hole, but the Jin cavalry was like sharp knives, constantly advancing towards the center of the big array. In this case, the infantry did not flee from the wind, which is really a miracle on the battlefield.
"The Han army is invincible and sweeps the world." In the bloody battle, the infantry still kept shouting, at this time, it seemed that they had really become an invincible Han army, and their will to fight was extremely tenacious. Although the cavalry of the Jin State was extremely strong, they could not kill this group of infantry who were not afraid of death.
The cavalry's crushing of the infantry is unquestionable, no matter how unafraid of death this group of infantry is, they can't resist the advance of the cavalry, the large array is torn apart little by little, almost tearing the entire infantry array into two pieces, once the large array is completely penetrated, then this infantry will collapse, even if the real Han army comes, it can't resist, let alone a copycat version of the Han army? You know, before they were just a local army with extremely poor combat effectiveness.
Just when the infantry array was about to collapse, Qiu Qiongying led the army to kill, and quickly entered the battle, which was inseparable from the opponent's killing.
The rescue came, and at this time Hua Rong came to the spirit, he ordered the infantry not to take a step back, and those who violated the order were beheaded, and the infantry began to approach slowly towards the Jin cavalry.
This Jin cavalry is still a vassal army, the reason why the combat effectiveness is strong, and the commander Ali Hu is brave and good at fighting, there is a way that a lion with a group of sheep, then the sheep will also become lions, not to mention that the lion of Ali Tiger is carrying a group of lions?
Qiu Qiongying took the lead and pounced on Alihu.
Alihu is a Bohai man, the reason why he can become a commander is related to his courage and good fighting, he saw a beautiful woman rushing towards him, so he did not hesitate to wave a serrated mace to meet him.
Xiao Li Guanghuarong saw Qiu Qiongying and Ali Hu fighting together, so he opened his bow and shot an arrow, this arrow directly pierced the left eye of the war horse, and the unbearable pain of the war horse lifted Ali Hu, the fierce general of the Bohai Kingdom, down, and the horse's hooves crushed his shoulders heavily.
Take advantage of your illness to kill you. Qiu Qiongying's silver dragon spear pierced Ali Hu's throat directly.
The vassal army that lost the main general panicked, but this time they were not as lucky as the vassal army in front, and they couldn't escape at all, and they all died under the attack of the infantry and cavalry of the Han army, and the infantry suffered heavy casualties in this battle, and the fifteen thousand infantry finally left a little more than 5,000, but these more than 5,000 infantry really became the Han army, and in the future, they swept all directions under the command of the king of Han, and after encountering the cavalry of the Jin State, they still fought bravely to kill the enemy, and did not fall behind at all.
After the two armies joined forces, Qiu Qiongying said: "General Hua, let's go to encircle and suppress that Jurchen cavalry, so that the Han Wang cavalry can destroy Tiefutu without distraction." If this battle can wipe out Tiefutu, it will be considered a victory, and escaping Tiefutu is a defeat. ”
"That's right, after arresting Yan Zongzhi, don't let this guy run away, you are in charge of the match, I will shoot and wound him." Hua Rong knew that his skills were not as good as others, so he begged Qiu Qiongying to fight against Yan Zongzhi.
"No problem."
There are six female generals in the Great Song Dynasty, each with its own merits, Qiu Qiongying is the highest combat power among the generals, Hu Sanniang's flying knife is alone in the world, the female arrow god flower makes a hundred steps through Yang, and the horse shooting is not in Xiao Li Guanghuarong, Xiao Yang is under Ji Pang Wanchun, the strongest foot battle is Liu Ruyan, the water battle is Liang Hongyu, and the strongest Folding Moon Immortal is arranged.
Killing the enemy on the battlefield, Qiu Qiongying was the first to take the lead, and the cavalry behind followed closely behind.
Strangling Tiefutu was an extremely difficult battle, not that Han Wangqi could not defeat him, but that Han Wangqi was unwilling to fight Tiefutu to the death, and wanted to annihilate Tiefutu with minimal casualties. After all, in a stable battle, there is no need to kill a thousand enemies and lose eight hundred.
King Han relied on his good endurance, and when he tore up with Tiefutu, he delayed as much time as possible, trying to drag Tiefutu down. A set of armor armed to the teeth of Tiefutu is hundreds of catties, not only people wear armor, but even the horses are heavy armor, and the defense is extremely strong, but the heavy armor consumes the physical strength of the war horse, generally an hour is the upper limit, and the war horse will not be able to bear it if it exceeds an hour.
In this battle, the light armor of the Han King occupied a great advantage, not only flexible and mobile, but also full of endurance, entangled with Tiefutu, the goal is very clear, is to drag down the opponent and strangle them all.
When the king of Han rode to the death and entangled Tiefutu, Wanyan Zongzhi led 5,000 Jurchen warriors to kill, and the two sides fell into a melee, which disrupted the plan of the king of Han to exterminate Tiefutu.
It's like when the dragon and tiger are fighting, they suddenly join a group of hungry wolves, so that the dragon has no way to deal with the tiger with full firepower, and the battle situation has undergone subtle changes, creating conditions for Tiefutu to escape.
Of course, Tie Futu knew the purpose of the Han army, and he also knew what the purpose of Wanyan Zong's previous visit to the war was, but they couldn't retreat, once they retreated, then Wanyan Zongzhi's 5,000 cavalry were destined to be annihilated by the Han army.
No matter how brave the Jurchen warriors were, after the light cavalry was surrounded by heavy cavalry, they were doomed to be completely annihilated. The commander of Tiefutu, Tudler, did not dare to retreat blindly, once the 5,000 Jurchen warriors under the command of Wanyan Sect were completely annihilated, the consequences would be very serious. Moreover, the Han army's heavy cavalry was extremely fast, even if Tiefutu wanted to run, he might not be able to run, and now he could only stay and fight hard.
