Volume 1 Born Out of Thin Air Chapter 41 The Battle of Zhongdu Ends

The reorganized Liao cavalry didn't know who started first, and soon vomited.

Suddenly, like a big stone smashed into a pond, the servant cavalry who did not want to be cannon fodder and the tribal cavalry that had long since separated from Germany scattered in a hurry, and even the servant cavalry who were monitored in the Liao army formation were no exception.

Ye Luming and Xiao Zhen tacitly did not stop them, but only restrained the soldiers and horses of their headquarters and let them leave, and at the same time were shocked by the power of the Jurchen clan's bows and arrows.

"Bastard, I'm going to destroy their people! What are you still doing in a daze, don't you catch that waste back and cut off your head! Emperor Tianzuo jumped up directly from the car.

A Han Chen explained embarrassedly: "Your Majesty, the hearts of these soldiers are already full of fear, and it is useless to chase them back, but it will affect the rest of the soldiers and horses of our Liao Kingdom." The officials and generals who accompanied him watched Emperor Tianzuo sit down dejectedly, and they all saw fear in the eyes of this majesty.

In the Liao infantry phalanx, the servant army was sandwiched between the Khitan tribal army and the tent army, and behind it was the tent cavalry that pressed the formation, unable to escape. The previous scene of killing people with bows and arrows had already shattered the fighting spirit of these servant troops, since they couldn't be defeated, why should they give their lives in vain for the sake of Liao.

For the first time, the balance of victory tilted in favor of the Jurchens, and Ah Guda took a long breath, and the other Jurchen generals also put down their hanging hearts, and the tribal soldiers attached to the Jurchens were also full of confidence.

Although the 100,000 Liao cavalry that collapsed were scum, the Jurchen coalition army only had more than 50,000 soldiers after all, and the pressure on the Jurchens suddenly decreased.

At two o'clock in the afternoon, the first game of the Jurchen Da Liao was over. The Liao 60,000 servant cavalry and tribal cavalry attacked the Jurchen cavalry position. The Jurchens resisted the onslaught with a large shield against horses, and then concentrated the horses with heavy arrows, causing the collapse of 100,000 servant cavalry and tribal cavalry.

There are still 30,000 cavalry in the tent in Daliao as a reserve, and the remaining cavalry is all sent to the two wings to suppress the formation, and the large array composed of 250,000 infantry is fluctuating. The Jurchens' 20,000 infantry and 30,000 cavalry suffered minor losses and were about to launch a counterattack.

"Forward!" A bone is full of pride.

At this time, no one noticed that there was a small hill behind the Jurchen phalanx, and the two thousand most ferocious Jurchen knights were preparing. They first helped each other to put on heavy armor, and then put on their horses as well, ready to strike a fatal blow.

Xiao Zhen watched the Jurchen formation slowly approaching after replacing the front row, and the uneasiness in his heart became stronger and stronger. He called his cronies, arranged some back-up hands, and told Yeluming to get ready again.

Dead soldiers, also known as Jurchen heavy armor soldiers, are usually the strongest and fiercest of the Jurchen warriors. Wearing two or even three layers of iron armor, some soldiers can reach 70 catties in armor alone.

The main weapons of the dead soldiers are heavy weapons such as iron spears, broadswords, maces, etc., and bows and crossbows are not used, and some use throwing spears. After the Jurchen conquered the Liao State, in view of the heavy casualties of their own soldiers, they began to let the "wild Jurchens" who had just been caught from the forest serve as dead soldiers to reduce the casualties of the core Jurchen warriors.

Seeing the collapse of the 100,000 cavalry of the Liao State, Ah Guta's military spirit was flustered, and he immediately commanded his own side to advance. The infantry phalanx marched slowly along the riverbank, followed closely by the Jurchen cavalry on both flanks.

Shu Dan is a Khitan commoner, a member of the Khitan tribal army, and his family has been a noble herdsman for generations, and his life can go on. In this Jurchen war of the Liao State, his aristocratic lord thought that the Liao State would win, so he asked Shu Dan to come over to earn some credit.

If the soldiers of Daliao only have military exploits and no backers, they will not have a bright future, and they will not pay attention to warriors as much as in the past.

The distance between the two infantry formations was shortened to less than a hundred meters, and Shu Dan and the archers in the phalanx heard the order of the drummer and threw together.

Tens of thousands of arrows rose into the air at the same time, and in the sound of "buzzing", the arrows that covered the sky and the sun seemed to be pouring heavy rain, sprinkling on the Jurchen military array.

Many arrows were stopped by the big shield in the front row of the Jurchen, and the front of the shield was so full that it could not even be held, and the big shield had to be discarded in order not to fall behind.

There were also more than a dozen arrows stuck in Heilig's small round shield, and he cut off the arrows with a single knife, and then looked at the few arrows stuck in his body, and felt that it was a fluke. No arrows could have penetrated through the gaps, otherwise they would have died even if they didn't pierce deeply.

Some soldiers in the Liao State still have accurate arrows, but their strength has become very weak, with an average of 30-40 kilograms, and there are very few shooters with more than 50 kilograms. Jurchen shooters have an average pull force of about 65 kilograms, so the casualties of the Jurchen dead soldiers wearing multiple layers of armor are not large.

But the Jurchen tribal soldiers were different, after all, the number of foot archers on both sides was ten to one, and there were many tribal soldiers who were shot and wounded. In this era of tetanus, they basically did not survive.

Ah Guta's sons Wanyan Zongwang and Wanyan Zongbi looked at the Jurchen warriors who were shot into hedgehogs, and couldn't help swallowing a mouthful of saliva, looking at Ah Guta, they always felt that their father Khan was still too big.

If you can take one or two more years to subdue the entire Beihai and Donghai Jurchens, there will be more than 50,000 true Jurchen warriors in your hands, and who in the world can stop them.

Aguta also felt that he was too big, but he didn't think he was doing anything wrong. The Jurchen's strength is weak, if you wait for the Liao State to train the army and start to fight for consumption, only the Jurchen will fail!

Aguta felt lucky, most of the Jurchen warriors were in the cavalry phalanx, and the dead soldiers in the infantry had iron helmets and double iron armor, and the losses were not very large. Tribal soldiers? Dead is dead, not enough to have.

Within seventy meters, except for the big shieldmen and heavy armor soldiers in the first row, everyone else in the Jurchen phalanx picked up their big bows and began to aim. The Jurchens used bows and arrows in the deep mountains and forests, and they paid more attention to accuracy and strength than the rate of fire and range.

Let you see what a strong bow is! Hailig thought so in his heart, and was ready to show his background. The horn sounded, and Hai Lige shot a heavy arrow at a young Liao soldier.

Shu Dan was turning to get the arrow, and when he heard something, he looked at his companion suspiciously, but his companion looked at him in horror.

Shu Dan wanted to speak, but he couldn't make a sound, and felt a little itchy in his neck. When I raised my hand, I felt a thick arrow shaft.

Blood gushed out, Shu Dan felt so weak, and his eyes were black. Sharp pain came, and his physical strength was quickly lost, and then he hugged his companion's leg and closed his eyes.

"Mom, sister, little brother, hurry up. The Jurchens are so powerful, we can't beat them..."Shu Dan didn't have a chance to warn his relatives, and none of his family members near Zhongdu survived except for Xiaomei, who was taken captive as a camp prostitute.

The infantry formations of the two sides have already fired three rounds against each other, and the Liao State has caused a lot of damage to the Jurchen phalanx, after all, the Liao army has nearly 100,000 archers. Although most of them fired arrows from a distance of 150 meters, the power of the armor was negligible.

And the backbone of the Jurchen phalanx, the heavy armor soldiers suffered less than two thousand casualties. And every time the Jurchen coalition army fired two arrows, a Liao soldier would lose his combat power, die or be wounded.

The arrow on Shu Dan's neck was shot by Hei Lige, almost splitting Shu Dan's neck in half, and Hei Lige was complacent about it. However, a Jurchen dead soldier who was also monitoring him next to him used a heavy arrow to directly break open the abdomen of a young general of the Liao State.

In a screaming sound that was very different from the bow and arrow of the Liao State, the heavy arrow pierced through the iron armor of the young general of the Liao State, penetrated the leather armor, and finally cut through the soft abdomen.

The young general of the Liao Kingdom, who was shot in the abdomen, threw away his weapon and frantically pulled out the arrow, but the three-edged heavy arrow with a barb brought out his intestines, and dark blood water flowed all over the ground along with his internal organs.

When he died of blood loss, he remembered his father's request not to pull out the arrow by himself in the first life-and-death struggle......

Back in Mingyue Village, Li Xiang's newly built study already has hundreds of books and hundreds of theories.

When the news came out that Li Xiaofuzi bought books at a high price, the soldiers and villagers who went out were excited, and many people came over with books such as "Four Books and Sentences", and insisted on asking for money.

Li Xiang was moved and couldn't cry or laugh, so he hurriedly changed a notice, indicating some books that already existed, and affirming not to repeat them.

Li Xiang insisted on paying the book at a high price, or deducting the production in the village, and it was not a good habit not to give money.

Because the villagers rarely buy things from the outside, they generally choose the products of their own villages, which are easy to use and have large discounts, and they can also sell them out by themselves......

The collation of the Hundred Schools of Thought is a big project, and we can only sort out a basic framework first, and it is not an overnight thing.

Li Mengkong made a lot of sense, he had to determine some basic right and wrong, good and evil for these teenagers, so Mengxue in Mingyue Village temporarily added a new class, and the bear child and the young man shouted bad luck.

Customs class, this is the name taken by Li Mengkong. Li Mengkong dipped it in ink, wrote it in a chic stroke, and then gave it to Li Xiang, who was very confident in his calligraphy, and as a result, Li Xiang directly squirted out a sip of tea......

The custom class is the customs class, and it's not bad to focus on it from here, and it's easy to go from shallow to deep. After all, like the children of the original time and space, the children of Mengxue also like to celebrate the festival the most.

The customs course first combines history to introduce the important customs and festivals of the Great Zhou, as well as the similarities and differences between Liao, Xixia and Dali and the Great Zhou. Then it focuses on the traditions of the Han people, as well as some typical stories.

In order to further unite the children of the public middle school and try to "oppose the water" of these intellectuals, Li Xiang was only responsible for formulating the outline of the customs class, and the specific curriculum was led by Li Mengkong and several children.

Cool! A group of bear children looked at themselves with sparkling eyes, and that feeling made Li Mengkong addicted. He also didn't want to think about it, without Li Xiang, Liu Susu, Xiong Chengwen and others taking care of Mengxue's daily work, how could they leave after finishing school.

In the process of taking customs classes, Li Mengkong also gained a lot. Cangjie made characters, Shennong Baicao and Spring and Autumn Baijia passed by one by one, and slowly, several children were no longer entangled in the Four Books and Five Classics.

Respect for teachers and respect the way, there was Qin first; Honoring one's parents has existed since ancient times; Benevolence, righteousness and morality, Zhou etiquette still exists. As the customs lessons went deeper and deeper, a lot of familiar but old things began to emerge.

The syllabus of the customs class took Li Xiang a lot of time, and after the initial decision, Li Xiang celebrated with several children.

At the banquet, Li Mengkong held this hard-won "key" and couldn't cry.

"I have been studying the four books for more than 20 years, and today I know what I have learned, and there are many fallacies! First there was Huaxia, then there were hundreds of schools, and then Confucius and Mencius were on top, which is the correct solution. ”
