Chapter 422: Annihilation of the Jin Army

The 5,000 cavalry did not separate, but with the order of the two tigers of Chadie, the whole army attacked, and the army slaughtered the Han army in full gear.

This is destined to be a classic duel, 5,000 cavalry like a tiger down the mountain crazy rush to kill the past, at this time, the Jin army's powerful cavalry and archery ability has been fully demonstrated, and the super-first-class riding skills have also burst out of very strong combat effectiveness.

The cavalry and archery ability of the Jin army is far above that of the Han iron cavalry, and the soldiers control the war horses to sprint while designing the enemy, this kind of large-area, high-speed lethality is simply a nightmare for the defending infantry.

The first team of Han troops were all crossbowmen, who had long been hiding behind the horse rejection stakes, and they observed the advancing Jin army through the gaps, estimating the distance.

The speed and range of infantry shooting are far inferior to that of mounted shooting, and in this case, the timing of the Han army's shooting is very important, and they only begin to return fire after the first round of shooting of the Jin army.

This group of Han soldiers used the horse rejection pile, and the other teams are completely different, this horse rejection pile is Zhen Wuchen's son Zhen Yuchun designed, on weekdays and ordinary horse rejection pile, but set up a mechanism on it, so that the long shield used by the soldiers can be hung on it, to resist the enemy's bow and arrow shooting, so that the soldiers can counterattack with all their strength, do not have to pay too much attention to defense.

It is for this reason that these archers are double shields, one large and one small, to protect their bodies, and to cover the archery, so that the Han soldiers unscrupulously launched a counterattack against the Jin army, and the two sides stood up with bows and arrows to attack.

No one can bargain, it does not mean that they are equal, but in fact, as the attacking side of the Jin army, once this round of attack is not cheap, then the next positional battle will be even more difficult.

Under the cover of the shield, the casualties of the Han army were not too serious, but it was unlucky for the Jin army on the horse, even with men and horses, the target of the shot was very large, and the first round of sprint was destined to have great casualties.

If the cavalry shock infantry can't get cheap against long-range attacks, then once it falls into positional warfare, it will be quite passive, and the casualties will continue to expand as the positional warfare opens, and gradually fall into a life-and-death melee.

Once you get caught in a melee, the advantage of the cavalry is not obvious, and it will even fall into a passive that is difficult to control. Rather, over time, the advantage of the cavalry will be lost, and it will eventually fall into a fierce battle with the infantry.

After two rounds of shooting, the death of both sides was not big, they were all hundreds of people, rejecting the horse pile, the antlers delayed the speed of the Jin cavalry sprint, at this time, the first team of the Han army quickly retreated, the rear team became the front team quickly retreated, the front team became the rear team to stick to the post and the Jin army died, to cover the retreat of the rear team.

The crossbowmen patrolled the planks and built a fifth bridge before retreating behind the sword and shield men, then adjusting their formation and starting to stand behind the sword and shield soldiers and shoot the Jin army.

This trench was dug very individually, and the war horses could barely jump over, but after jumping over, they had to resist the sword and shield soldiers of the Han army head-on, and there was no way to sprint at all, and the cavalry became their infantry on horseback.

The nightmare struck, and the nightmare of the Jin army finally came, that is, the sword and shield soldiers, when they were in hard hand-to-hand combat, they abandoned the shield that could defend against the Jin army's cavalry, and began to use knives and axes to cut the horse's legs.

On the battlefield, a classic battle began. After the sword and shield soldiers gave up their shields, they frantically chopped the legs of the horses with their knives and axes, regardless of life and death, only cutting the legs of the horses, regardless of whether the cavalry would kill or not, as if these guys were not afraid of death.

Not afraid of death, it does not exist, and the most terrible thing happened, that is, when the swords, axes, spears and spears in the hands of the Jin army viciously killed the sword and shield soldiers, the gunshots rang out.

After the dense gunfire rang out, rows of Jin troops fell off their horses.

It turned out that the two teams were divided into labor, archers and musketeers shot long-range to attack the Jin army on horseback, this process and long-range mixed combat method brought great damage to the Jin army, and it was difficult to adapt to it for a while.

The most terrible thing is still to come, the Jin army behind doesn't know what is going on, and keeps moving forward, so that in a small space, the two armies are entangled together.

With impact power, the cavalry of the Jin State, which is good at mobility, fell into positional warfare, and when it lost its mobility, the cavalry became infantry on horseback, and the war horse became a burden, and the combat effectiveness of the 5,000 cavalry could not catch up with the combat effectiveness of the 5,000 infantry, in this case, it could be entangled to death by 18,000 infantry plus 1,000 musketeers.

When the fierce battle kicked off, Zhen Wuchen knew that this time the 5,000 gold soldiers would not be able to run, he waved the command flag, and the 12,000 soldiers of the fourth team finally came out, led by Zhen Wuchen's son Zhen Yuchun, and the 12,000 soldiers were killed like a group of tigers.

Although surrounded, however, the always fierce Jin army did not have stage fright, and there was no sign of rout, not only that, but also that kind of barbaric energy came up, and it was possible to rush out at any time, and it was obvious that the 30,000 Han army could not trap the highly mobile and fierce Jin army.

can't bear it, it really can't bear it, all the Han army can do is to entangle the five thousand Jin State cavalry, and if you want to annihilate it, it will be a joke.

Bloody battle, as time went by, the Jin army became more and more confident, and the Han army showed signs of defeat, and it was for this reason that the Jin army showed no signs of withdrawing.

It's right not to withdraw, because at this time there is no way to withdraw, 10,000 Han kings rode out, and in this battle, Han Wangcai is to completely annihilate the 5,000 Jinguo cavalry.

Gap, gap, the Jin cavalry against the Han Iron Cavalry is basically four or six soldiers, the Jin State Cavalry is six, and the Han Iron Cavalry is four, which is the proof of countless bloody battles. However, in the face of the battle of the Han Wangqi, the combat power of the Jin Guotie Cavalry was obviously insufficient, and it has been crushed inwardly and has never won. The most terrifying thing is that you can't beat it in one-on-one combat, let alone 5,000 Jin Guo's iron cavalry against 10,000 Han king's cavalry plus 30,000 infantry?

The originally confident and murderous Jin army finally collapsed, and in this case, encountering the Han Wangqi was destined to be a massacre.

The 5,000 cavalry of the Jin Kingdom struggled to support for an hour and then collapsed on all fronts, and were finally wiped out, and not a single one escaped.

In this battle, Zhen Wuchen won respect and dignity, proving that they can proudly say that they are the Han army, and they are no longer resentful soldiers.

Zhen Wuchen still felt a little unsatisfactory, obviously, he still couldn't do without the Han Wangqi, otherwise this battle would be really hard, very hard. He envied the Han King's cavalry, the most powerful cavalry of this era, and also wanted to have a cavalry that had always belonged to him, this time the cavalry of the five thousand Jin Kingdom finally left more than 3,000 war horses, but having war horses and forming cavalry are two different things, and the road behind is still very long.

In fact, there are no tigers in Tiger Cave Mountain, but Zhao Heshou wants to become a man-eating tiger, and he wants to eat the Jin army, no matter how many Jin soldiers come, they all have to eat it.

Zhao Heshou has the most soldiers and horses among these people, with 50,000 soldiers, but he is the worst in combat effectiveness, and his mobile combat ability is very poor, but this time, he does not need to take the initiative to attack the Jin army, he only needs to defend to the death, as long as he can hold on for three days, then he will complete the task.

Defense, the more greedy people are for life and fear of death, the more effort they put into defense, Zhao Heshou, who has married seventeen wives, is undoubtedly this kind of person, this guy let 50,000 soldiers set up camp, dig trenches on the road, and be enough to be the cavalry of the Jin State, and put 30,000 soldiers on the mountain, and the other 20,000 at the bottom of the mountain.

Zhao Heshou firmly believes that after digging so many trenches, even if the Jin army has wings, he will not want to fly out, and he has made the worst plan, that is, to burn the entire Tiger Cave Mountain, of course, the premise is that if he can't stand it, he would rather burn this mountain and destroy his 50,000 soldiers, but also intercept the reinforcements of the Jin State.

Setting fire to the mountain is obviously not a good method, it is just a more radical method, in fact, there are 10,000 cavalry as backup, unless it is absolutely necessary, Zhao Heshou will never set fire to the mountain.

The fierce battle was destined to be a vicious battle, 20,000 Jin cavalry came to the rescue of Chaoyang City, and the two sides fought fiercely in Tiger Cave Mountain.

50,000 against 20,000 is unexpectedly no chance of winning. It is no wonder that the 20,000 cavalry of the Jin Kingdom are like wolves and tigers, and their combat effectiveness is extremely strong, while Zhao Heshou's 50,000 are actually a group of rabble, and in the face of the almost crazy attack of the Jin army, they can't bear it at all, and they are defeated and retreated as soon as they come up.

Losing and retreating, it seems that the situation is precarious, but in fact, the casualties of the Han army are not very large, this is mainly due to the unintentional love of the Jin army, plus the cover of the archers on the mountain, in this case, you can also deal with the Jin army.

Maneuvering does not mean that there is no danger, after all, the Han army has been pressed and beaten by the Jin army, and the gap in strength is still quite large, and it is not something that can be made up by a large number of people at all.

Moreover, there were only 20,000 infantry facing the Jin army at the foot of the mountain, so it was not easy to entangle with the Jin army. Holding on for three days is obviously an impossible task. Even with the addition of those 10,000 cavalry, it is quite difficult.

The Jin army was in a hurry to rescue Chaoyang City, so it fought very tenaciously and sprinted fiercely, but the Han army was losing and retreating, and it was obviously not easy to rush over.

Can't rush through, you can only charge again and again, maybe after killing this Han army, you can rush over for a long time, under the effect of this psychology, the Jin army charged again and again, but because the mountains are all Han archers, so the charge is very fierce, but the actual threat is not very big.

Charge again and again, can only advance slowly, in fact, the destructive power of the Han army is not very strong, in this case the courage of the Han army gradually came up, without the previous panic, began to entangle with the Jin army step by step.

Entanglement, obviously, this Han army is kraft candy, when entangled, it can be said that it is played to the fullest, and the Jin army that kills has no temper at all, no matter how big the advantage is, it is difficult to break through.

Wanfu Shangtu Danzhen has no great skills, he is a very rude guy, if he hadn't married the princess of Liang State, it would not have been his turn to lead his troops to the battle.

After Yan Liang killed the emperor and became the emperor, he was very good to his brother, younger brother, brother-in-law, and brother-in-law.

The unreliable Shangtu Danzhen encountered Zhao Heshou, who was greedy for life and afraid of death, and this battle was destined to be different. The battle lasted from noon to dark, although the Jin army had an absolute advantage, but there was no way to break through, and the darkness could not fight again, so it could only wait and wait until dawn to fight again.

When it's dark, it doesn't mean that there can be a truce. Although in this era, most people have night blindness, they can't see clearly at night, and it is difficult to fight at night, but standing on this night, Guo Sanlang led 10,000 cavalry to rush into the camp of the Jin army.

This battle has been won for Guo Sanlang, and the Jin army that has been killed indiscriminately for a while will not be able to rest, which will definitely affect the next day's battle. For Shangtu Danzhen, for the Jin army, it is not a good thing, the bloody battle continued the next day, the obvious fighting spirit is not very strong, and it is still difficult to make a big breakthrough with the Han army.

The next night, Zhao Heshou finally lost his patience, he set the valley on fire, and the Jin army in the valley could only flee in all directions in the face of the raging fire.

The Tiger Cave Mountain was not burned, but the valley was burned, but despite this, the casualties of the Han army exceeded 10,000. As for the number of casualties of the Jin army, it is difficult to count, but the 20,000 Jin army scattered and fled, and the plan to rescue Chaoyang City was shattered.

There are no reinforcements, no reinforcements, Wanyan Xiyin, who is guarding Chaoyang City, takes the initiative to defend the city, he knows that without reinforcements, this battle is difficult to fight, but the only advantage is that he is facing a resentful army, not a brave and good Han army, which is a blessing in misfortune.

The siege of the city, there are no tricks, only hard encounters, the intensity of the siege gradually escalates, and the pressure of defense gradually increases.

What the battle of Chaoyang City looked like, Liu Zhenglong, the emperor of the Han Dynasty, didn't care, he just wanted to know what kind of scene the Han Navy Division would be after landing on Huludao.

Huludao landing, the capital is under the command of the old general Zhang Heng, destined to be the last battle of his life, and Zhang Shun has gone to the South China Sea to expand the territory, and Ruan's Sanxiong also went to the East China Sea. This time, only Zhang Heng, Tong Wei, and Tong Meng fought among the Han Naval Division, after all, the core of the battle to destroy Jin was the army, and the naval army was just a sneak attack.

The main mission of the powerful sailors of the Han Dynasty was not to destroy the Jin Kingdom, but to go east, to the south, to develop unfamiliar lands, and to expand the territory for the Han Dynasty, so in this battle, after the Han sailors landed on Huludao, the mission was basically completed.
