Chapter 122: The Decisive Battle (3)
Hearing the sound of gold, the Liao cavalry, which was struggling to support, immediately dispersed from both sides and wanted to withdraw to their own formation.
Beside Dongxian Wenrong, the cavalry of the Liao army, which was 15,000 before the battle, is now only a little more than 10,000.
After the huge casualties caused by the assault on the Dingxiang army just now, under the encirclement of the Dingxiang army, the Liao cavalry fell into a predicament, and one after another the Liao cavalry was stabbed off their horses.
If the Wuyan army retreats more slowly, I am afraid that the Liao army will suffer greater casualties.
But even so, if the Liao soldiers want to withdraw, they have to ask whether the Xiang army agrees first!
The left and right winged flying leopards are out on the move!
Before the Flying Leopard Cavalry arrived, the archers of the Dingxiang Army struck first.
Before the Liao cavalry was killed, the two armies fought together, and the archers of the Dingxiang army were afraid of being injured by mistake, so they could only shoot and kill scattered.
Now that Dongxian Wenrong is about to retreat, he has separated from the Dingxiang army, and his back is unguarded, and it is the time for the archers to exert their might.
"Target enemy horseman, shoot at full speed!" Seeing this, the deputy general Yunli King Kong Song Wan gave the order to attack without hesitation.
"Woo...... Instigate...... Instigate......! The 3,000 archers immediately pulled the bowstrings desperately, and the arrows splashed in the sky were jaw-dropping in speed.
"Shoot! Shoot! Shoot! Song Wan's expression was extremely excited, and he roared almost madly.
Don't shoot at this time, wait until the enemy runs a little farther, and the arrows won't kill them at all.
One by one, they tirelessly repeated the action of the upper arrow, the opening of the strings, and the loosening of the strings.
After leaving behind more than 300 corpses, the Liao army was finally out of the range of arrows.
However, before Cave Immortal Wenrong could catch his breath, he heard the dull sound of horses' hooves sounding from both sides, and approached at a very fast speed.
"Dut...... Honk......! ”
With the long and deep sound of bull horns, nearly 6,000 horsemen galloped on the flat ground.
At the forefront of the cavalry on the right flank was an ink-colored battle flag waving in the wind, and there was only one large and flowing "Qin" character on the flag.
Under the battle flag, one person wears a vermilion lacquer hat, wears a chain chain mail beast swallowing shoulder armor, carries a mace, and straddles down to charge the fire dragon horse, it is the thunderbolt fire Qin Ming!
Thunderbolt Fire Qin Ming is as bright as a fire, and even leading troops to fight must be one step faster.
The flying leopard on the right wing led by him rode one step faster than Luan Tingyu on the left wing, and killed the Cave Immortal Wen Rongjun first.
Desperately stopped by the infantry, and then shot by the archers, forget it.
Now you Song cavalry also dare to challenge my Da Liao cavalry, you simply don't know whether you are alive or dead.
Cave Immortal Wenrong felt that he had been humiliated, and he roared angrily: "Shoot me, let them know what a real cavalryman is!" ”
With the order of the commander, the Liao cavalry drew arrows from the quiver at the same time.
Seventy paces away!
With the momentum of the charge, the cavalry of the Liao army loosened their strings one by one.
"Woo ......!" Nearly 10,000 arrows crossed arcs and then stabbed down.
When Qin Ming saw it, he immediately roared angrily: "Raise your shield!" ”
The extremely well-trained Flying Leopard Riders quickly took out the light round iron-clad wooden shields hanging from the back of their horses and blocked them in front of them.
"Bang bang ......!" Most of the arrows were blocked by wooden shields, but hundreds of arrows still wounded cavalry and horses.
Qin Ming's eyes shot a fierce cold light, and he ordered without hesitation: "Huang Xin, let them see how powerful we are!" ”
Zhensanshan Huang Xin shouted the order, and then roared at the cavalry under his command, "Javelin preparation!" ”
Nearly 3,000 cavalrymen drew their javelins in front of them.
The two armies had less than fifty paces left.
"Cast!"
Almost at the same time, Huang Xin and his cavalry skillfully and skillfully threw their javelins at the enemy.
Nearly 3,000 javelins covered the enemy cavalry, and as soon as they were thrown, the flying leopard rider hurriedly raised the wooden shield in his hand, his eyes staring straight at the attacking feathered arrows.
At the same time, the nearly 10,000 cavalry of the Liao army also fired the second wave of arrows, and after shooting, they took out the shield behind the horse at the same time and raised it to block.
The rain of guns and arrows staggered through the air, and some arrows were hit by javelins and landed directly. But more often than not, they crossed each other and fell to positions in various places.
The range of the arrow is much longer than that of the javelin, but it is not as powerful as the javelin. If the space is large enough, it is completely possible to kill the opponent with the tactic of flying a kite.
But now that the two armies are fighting, without the order of the main general Wuyan to unify the army, Dongxian Wenrong can't just wander around, he can only fight hard.
The javelin followed by a huge inertia, directly piercing the leather shield of the Liao army, shooting the Liao soldiers off their horses and nailing them to the ground.
Although the arrows were not as powerful as the javelins, they still shot many flying leopard riders with their large numbers.
This round of mutual casualties was not small, and just as the Dongxian Wen Rongjun was preparing for the third round of cavalry shooting, the left-wing flying leopard cavalry led by Luan Tingyu arrived.
Under Qin Ming and Luan Tingyu's left and right attacks, the Cave Immortal Wen Invalids suddenly felt very difficult, and the casualties increased suddenly.
The Wuyan army rode on a tall horse, raising his eyes to look at the dust in the distance.
When the Flying Leopard rode out, he was experienced in the battlefield and reacted immediately.
"Wood makes a fire, only a child, you immediately lead the horned wood Jiao Sun Zhong, Doumu Ji Xiao Daguan, Kui Wood Wolf Guo Yongchang, Jing Mu Qiantong Lihe four soldiers and horses to attack the enemy army, and help the Dongxian general retreat!" Without hesitation, the Wuyan Commander shouted an order to Zhi'er Fulang, and then conveyed it to the military order. "Order Cave Immortal Wenrong to withdraw from the two wings to the rear army for repair, don't mess up our army formation!"
Knowing that the situation was urgent, he didn't say much, and hurriedly beckoned his soldiers and horses to follow him to attack the enemy.
Only Fu Lang was drinking and ordering the iron cavalry to gallop forward, ready to meet the enemy.
Shi Jin has been paying attention to the movements of the Liao army, and seeing that the Liao army will soon send another army to attack, the speed of the Wuyan army to deal with it is quite unexpected for Shi Jin.
Wheel warfare?
This is the traditional tactic of the Liao army!
For this move, Shi Jin was already prepared when he discussed it with Zhu Wu and Xu Guanzhong before the war.
Shi Jin hurriedly ordered: "Order General Yang Zhi of the Left Army to attack and stop the attack of the Liao army." Order the former army Wu Song to retreat and repair! ”
After all, there were only more than 6,000 flying leopard cavalry on the left and right, and when they saw that the Liao army was killing again, Qin Ming and Luan Tingyu stopped the advance of the flying leopard army, and then turned their horses' heads and ran to the rear of the Dingxiang army, re-arrayed and waited for another attack.
Getting rid of the entanglement of the Flying Leopard Cavalry, the Dongxian Wen Rong Army finally withdrew to the Liao army's main camp safely.
As soon as he counted it, it suddenly made Cave Immortal Wenrong's heart ache. In this attack, his men suffered casualties and killed nearly 6,000 people, and countless people were slightly wounded.
Jupiter's general only led the army to attack the Dingxiang army, but was intercepted by Yang Zhi on the way. The two drums shook and fought fiercely with each other.
After fighting for a while, the sky gradually darkened, and I couldn't see my fingers. Wuyan Tongjun and Shi Jin were very tired when they saw the army fighting for a day, and today's battle was just a tentative attack, after knowing the relative strength of the opponent's soldiers and horses, after each paying a lot of casualties, they each paid a lot of casualties, and they each paid a lot of gold at the moment and slowly retreated.
In the Liao army camp, the night was quiet, and the Wuyan army was in no mood to rest at this time.
The Wuyan commander sat in Mazha, covering his forehead, and couldn't hide a kind of anxiety in his eyes.
The sweltering summer has passed, and the cool breeze brought by the autumn breeze cannot blow away the dullness in the hearts of the Wuyan commanders.
Today's battle gave him a new understanding of the Song army.
He had to admit that this Song army was very strong, and even faintly felt that it was more powerful than the Liao army!
In order to confirm his thoughts, Wuyan Tongjun asked in a deep voice. "How many people have been killed or wounded in our army today?"
Yelude, who served as the deputy commander, hurriedly said, "Wuyan commander, our army has lost nearly 9,000 people today!" However, the casualties of the Song army are definitely not small, definitely no less than three or four thousand! ”
When the Wuyan army heard the casualty figures, their hearts were even more irritated.
The casualty ratio is nearly three to one, not to mention that the casualties on his side are more cavalry. How can such casualties satisfy the Wuyan army.
Yelu Dezhong saw that the Wuyan army did not understand his meaning, and hurriedly said: "Wuyan army, this Song army does not have as many soldiers and horses as us!" And these soldiers and horses are only the most powerful soldiers and horses in the Song Kingdom. In addition to the 200,000 soldiers and horses led by you, our Liao State can still recruit hundreds of thousands of soldiers and horses. As long as our army kills this Song army. So where can there be a strong army in the Song Kingdom to resist my Great Liao Iron Cavalry going south! ”
Hearing this, a cold light flashed in his eyes, and he hesitated for a moment, and shouted decisively, "What you said makes sense. However, the Song army had 100,000 soldiers and horses on this road, and three or four soldiers and horses were killed or wounded, and they could not pose a threat to him at all. Tell your children to clean up, and we're going to attack at night tonight!" ”
"Night attack on the Song army camp!" Jerod looked straight at the forehead and said with some astonishment.
"Not bad!" Wuyan Tongjun said affirmatively.
"Wuyan commander, if you go to attack the Song army tonight, I'm afraid that the other party will be on guard, won't it be too risky!" Jerod re-urged.
"Sneak attack? No, we're going to attack openly. We have a lot of troops, and we are attacking day and night, and I want to see how long they can hold out. The Wuyan commander shouted.
Today's battle made the Wuyan army understand that this army is very strong, and he will defeat the opponent head-on, and he will not give up hope. In this case, he planned to take advantage of the advantage of his soldiers and horses to consume and drag down the opponent.
After thinking for a while, Yelu Dezhong understood what Wuyan meant by the army, and hurriedly shouted. "Yes! The last general is going to straighten out the soldiers and horses! ”
