Chapter 797: Sons, Come With Me-[Ask for Subscription]
Has anyone among the Jurchen soldiers ever tasted the earth-shattering thunder?
Of course there is, but not many.
The Jurchen soldiers who often fought with the Qi army were all folded outside Liaoxi Prefecture. Just as Ah Gu defeated Zhu Tong and Lei Heng, Lu Junyi also led the Jianrui Army that day to destroy more than 20,000 Jin troops in the fierce battle with Yue Fei's army.
There is no need to consider how many people died in battle and how many surrendered on their backs. The latter is a thing of the past.
However, the loss of more than 20,000 soldiers was a big blow to the Jurchens. It can even be said to be a nerve-wracking injury.
Look at how many defenders are there in Chenzhou? Wanyan Yan's mother is the half-brother of Aguta, and he also made great achievements during the Liao War, but he can only command 10,000 soldiers and horses in Chenzhou, which is the same as the number of Zhu Tong and Lei Heng. This is also the fundamental reason why after seeing Yan Yan's mother leading the troops out of the city, Zhu Tonglei Heng had no doubts at all, and the whole army fought with him.
Wanyan Yan's mother can only lead 10,000 soldiers, so you can know how important Wanyan Lou Room and Wanyan Yinshu were to hold a small 30,000-step cavalry that day.
It can be said that although the Jurchens immediately expanded their army with all their strength after the defeat, they did still have some soldiers and horses in their hometown, but the total number of troops after the expansion based on this was only a little more than 100,000, and Aguta forcibly expanded to 1340,000, which in itself weakened the combat effectiveness of the Jin army.
He was also more interested, and immediately lost the Zhongjing Province and the Shangjing Road, and guarded the troops with low combat strength in the central and northern regions, and the main force of 100,000 troops was stationed in Liaoyang.
Emperor Tianzuo is not a reckless man who doesn't know bullshit, he naturally won't take advantage of the situation to attack Aguta's lair, and the Jurchen and Khitan are already allies.
Even though they are still enemies on the surface.
Next, after settling down on the outside, Akuta began to straighten out the inside. With the cooperation of sticky and drunk, he successfully built a 3,000-strong Iron Floating Slaughter and about 10,000 kidnappers. But this weakened the already declining Jin Army.
This is also another reason why in the Battle of Chenzhou, Zhu Tong and Lei Hengbu were inseparable from Wanyan Yan's mother.
It must be clear that the soldiers and horses led by Zhu Lei and the others are only Qilu's garrison, not the regular soldiers under the Governor's Mansion of the Five Armies.
In the original battle in the east of Yanjing City, although Emperor Lu was always stable, the foundation was that he not only had more soldiers and horses than the Jurchens, but also had two trump cards to play, artillery and the imperial front division.
After deducting these advantages, the Ma Bu Army of the Qi Army did not surpass the Jin Army in terms of combat power compared to the Jin Army at its peak.
But it was a regular soldier, and what Emperor Lu took out was the regular soldier of the Governor's Mansion of the Five Armies, and the garrisons of Qilu, Central Plains, Northern Hebei and other places had the actual effect of shouting "666" on the side.
But now they are able to compete with the Jin soldiers in equal numbers, can this be the progress of the Lu Qi garrison? It must be that the Jin army has regressed.
And now there are 5,000 such people in the Yan Lou room, and it can be said that there is a lot of water inside, and there are only about 1,800 veterans with good quality, and some of them are newly incorporated into the army; Among the newly recruited recruits who have a certain amount of military experience, that is, the Liao army that surrendered before, there are also thousands of people. Most of these people also had experience of war, and many had blood on their hands. But at the beginning, under the harsh pickiness of Aguta, they were all kicked out of the army.
Nominally, they were also included in Meng'an Mooke, but in fact, they had no chance to join the army at all.
It was more like a reserve and homesteaders with a lot of land. There is land in Liaodong.
But now they have become the backbone of the Jurchen recruits.
In addition to these people, the quality of the other 3,000 people is really not good. They came from the Bohai people and the Liaodong Han'er.
Bohai Meng'an and Han'er Meng'an also have it. The former's combat effectiveness was seen in Gao Yongchang's rebellion in Tokyo [Liaoyang], and he was wiped out by the Liao army like the Jurchens chopping melons and vegetables. The latter is historically the signing of the Jurchens. In the official history of the Jin State, every time there was a conquest and border provocation, he ordered to sign an army, so that there was a commotion near and far, and the people and men, if they were all strong, or they could take it all.
The combat strength and quality of this kind of soldier can be seen. Although the earliest of them has almost enlisted in the army for a year, and the late ones have been in the army for half a year.
But they are still cannon fodder and masters of shouting 666. Don't look at the time of his enlistment, it is enough for the garrison of the Qi army to be freshly baked. The Jurchens who came out of the deep mountains and old forests could have fought and killed, and the harsh living environment and the tigers in the mountains and forests were their teachers. But expecting them to train Han'er recruits for training is far less efficient than the Qi army that has a systematic recruit training.
really fighting, there is a qualitative gap between the combat effectiveness of these people and the Jurchen veterans. You can't count on them for a real war!
Gao Pinzhou is a Bohai native, he never thought that his military career would encounter such a thrilling and exciting thing!
Just a big firecracker fell at his feet, and he had already been frightened by the thunderous explosions in front of him. Yes, a wonderful straight line short pass, like an antelope hanging horns, and like a cow, the big firecracker avoided seven or eight pairs of feet, like a scalpel accurately cut through the only gap, directly to the feet of his top boss's top boss - Hu Du Jin Mouke.
Then there was a roaring explosion, and the flesh and blood were swayed in the screams, and it was a good color.
At that time, Gao Pin Zhou was extremely glad that he loved to kick on weekdays, and even now he felt that the kick just now was the most wonderful kick in his life, and he still remembered the soft touch of the rattan basket outside the big firecracker, otherwise there would be blood he spilled in the colorful head.
Don't look at the thunder falling from the sky, but on average, it is very little. So far, there has only been one high-quality week.
But a lot of arrows fell.
The thunderstorms had already blown up the watchtower and arrow tower on the shore. Not to mention that the torsion ballista can also fire a ballista, the head of the gun is wrapped with cotton and linen, dipped in fire oil, and released, one shot is accurate. Those seemingly good watchtower arrow towers have now either collapsed or turned into large torches, and the Jurchens are simply in vain.
Therefore, one by one, the wooden bands approached the shore, and a large number of crossbowmen shot at the Jin army in the chaos of the array on the shore. to cover the landing of the Qi army's infantry armor.
Just a few seconds ago, a crossbow bolt suddenly passed through his ears and shot a man behind him in two eyes. Then another arrow fell from the sky, fell against the shoulder, and hung on the leather robe. It was not the slightest difference from his shoulder.
Originally, Gao Pinzhou didn't care much, he was not close to the water of the Liao River, and this arrow fell on his shoulder, and it didn't necessarily pierce the leather robe outside, right?
What he is worried about now is the Qi army on the riverbank, they now have an advantage, the big firecrackers have caused the Jurchen soldiers to be chaotic, and then there are arrows and crossbows, and the first batch of Qi troops on the shore have not been hindered at all. And they have already brought one small cannon after another ashore, and the speed of this landing is too fast. However, the Jin Army array is still chaotic, and there is no possibility of launching a counterattack in the short term.
However, after a while, the number of Qi troops coming ashore will increase.
But soon he was no longer worried. Because just after the crossbow arrow flew past his ear, several more crossbow arrows flew towards him, and the soldiers in front of him fell one after another, so frightened that he hurriedly covered the arrows on his shoulders and hid behind. He felt that he was being targeted by a few crossbowmen on the other side.
The result was quite obvious, where he was before, seven or eight people died one after another, and the soldiers next to him shouted shield, shield again and again.
Gao Pinzhou was unscathed, and secretly laughed at the person in front of him in his heart, he was really stupid, he didn't know that the best shield on this battlefield was the robe in front of him.
It turns out that this kind of meat shield is better for comrades-in-arms than the long and short cards in their own hands!
But even if he escaped, he was still pessimistic about the subsequent battle!
This battle can't be fought!
The Qi army not only has a lot of people, but also has strong bows and crossbows and artillery, and they are all armored soldiers.
In fact, Yue Fei still miscalculated at this point, he didn't expect that the Jin army after being baptized by the earth-shaking thunder would be so weak.
Wanyan Lou didn't attack now, which was different from the Jin army he had seen before.
But what should come is still coming. The crisis that can be seen in a high-quality week, how can Wanyan Lou Room not see it?
When the first batch of Qi troops all landed, numbering nearly three thousand, they left the east bank one by one with wooden flutes and rafts.
"You go, lead the cavalry to charge into battle, and lead the troops to follow up for your father." Wanyan Lou said to the eldest son, Wanyan Huonu. Now you have to fight hard.
The latter only nodded heavily, "Sons, come with me—" Running to the front of the cavalry with a mace, the girl shouted loudly.
The entire Jin army seemed to be awakened and roared alive.
Since the Qi army crossed the river, the blows and suppression against them became loose at this moment. Especially after hundreds of Jin cavalry urged their horses to sprint towards the river bank.
The horn sounded.
At the same time as Wanyan Huonu led the cavalry to charge, Wanyan Lou also appeared in the infantry formation in person, leading the rest of the infantry to rush towards the shore like a tide.
Hundreds of archers of the Jin army moved first, and they ran forward like a surge of water at the moment when the horn sounded, all of them wearing armor, sticking into the two wings, holding bows and arrows, holding shields above their heads, rushing to a distance of a hundred paces like the wind, and one arrow after another shot towards the Qi army on the shore in the blink of an eye.
At this time, most of the attention of the Qi army was attracted by the cavalry of the Wanyan Living Girl.
"Stretch Stretch Stretch ......"
The sound of bowstring ejection resounded, and on the battlefield, arrows were fired in unison, covering the entire Jin cavalry that rushed towards the Qi army in a rain of arrows. Although the Qi army has sharp artillery and outstanding hand-to-hand combat ability, it is not famous for its strong bows and crossbows, but this does not mean that the Qi army's bows and crossbows are not sharp.
From shooting the cavalry of the Jin Army, to expanding the coverage, and pulling the Jurchen archers on both wings in, only three rounds of salvos, the Jurchen infantry cavalry on the opposite side has fallen a piece, but these Jurchen archers are still insisting, and the Jurchen cavalry led by Wanyan Huonu is still covering their heads and moving forward, without the slightest stop.
They're shooting arrows too. When the distance is long, it is difficult to break through the armor with light arrows, even if many of the vanguard troops of the Qi army are only wearing relatively light cotton armor. When you get closer, use heavy armor-piercing arrows.
There were also some people in the Qi army who fell down screaming, and the cotton armor could protect against arrows, but there were always wounded. Wang Gui was also hit by an arrow, and the feather arrow pierced into the arm armor, and it was directly bounced away with a bang, not to mention that the armor was broken, or it was hung on the battle armor and couldn't do it. He doesn't care at all!
"Fire—"
As the Jurchen cavalry approached more and more, the air in front of the Qi army suddenly became tense. A door tiger squatting cannon sparked......
