Thousands of horsemen, taking advantage of the night, swept across the land north of the Wuding River in the cold spring.

Murong Parrot and Wan Yan Xianye, oh, it should be the international famous general Gao Taiwei - in later records, Gao Yu was the commander of the Battle of Tongwancheng - adopted a completely unexpected deployment. Most of the 8,500 cavalry in his hand, more than 4,500 cavalry were scattered out and charged as rangers, covering the entire battlefield.

These 4,500 riders have no advantage over the party's rangers, except for the number.

Because Gao Yu's 500 black-armored vanguard cavalry was not dispatched - Gao Yu hoped that they could protect themselves and return to Tongwan City if necessary. Therefore, most of the dispatches are light cavalry of the Hedong Army, and the configuration on weekdays is one person and one horse, and the mounts under the crotch do not meet the standard of war horses. Only the 600 riders of the Fold family are more elite.

But they are really numerous, and they are a new force. Both men and horses have rested in the Song army camp under Tongwan City for more than ten days, and now that they have enough strength, they can fight with the party for a while.

Moreover, it is not yet light, and it is not the time to play mounted archery. Instead, we have to keep impacting...... Hehe, the rangers under Brother Cha have long been frightened by the knights of the royal horse, and they can't raise their confidence at all.

In addition, the number of rangers sent by Chago is also small, less than 1,000.

Therefore, in the face of the Song army rangers coming from the slow field, the cavalry of the Dangxiang people did not dare to fight with them at all, and they were soon forced to the left of the Dangxiang army brigade.

In this way, Chago lost his grasp of the situation on the battlefield.

"King, the Song army has a large number of rangers, and our rangers are too few to deal with."

Hearing the report of his subordinates, Brother Cha just sneered: "It's just a bluff!" Just put the rangers near the brigade, and don't let the small cavalry of the Song people hinder the movement of the army. ”

"Great King," Li Liangfu felt that something was wrong, and reminded in a low voice, "If you don't let your subordinate iron harriers attack, teach Song Gou's light cavalry a hard lesson!" ”

"Not necessarily!" Brother Cha snorted coldly again, "And keep your strength, and then point to your iron harrier to step through Song Dog's armor!" ”

This time, Chago concentrated all 3,000 Iron Harrier cavalry in hand, just to deal with the royal horse straight armor cavalry.

After months of repeated trials, he now knew how good the Imperial Horse Straight Armor Ride was.

If you don't defeat them, even if you win the battle of Tongwan this time, I am afraid it will be difficult to achieve a large number of results in destroying the enemy, and this armored cavalry of the Song army is obviously improving, if you don't defeat them now, in a few years, I am afraid that there will be no cavalry of the Great White High Kingdom to confront it.

"Howler! The king can rest assured," Li Liangfu patted his chest, "As long as the iron harrier comes out, keep it and let those Song dogs die without a place to be buried!" ”

"Good!" Brother Cha nodded heavily, but he knew in his heart that this was Li Liangfu bragging!

In the Yuan Hao era, the Iron Harrier cavalry may be able to easily defeat the cavalry of the Song people in the field, but today's Iron Harrier is a little worried. Because this cavalry, which was supposed to be in the wilderness, has been raised in Xingqing Mansion for decades.

Moreover, the Iron Harrier cavalry was not selected from the hundreds of thousands of troops in Western Xia, but was served by the descendants of the first generation of Iron Harriers...... Hereditary soldiers, if there is no strict systematic education and elimination mechanism, will definitely be inferior to the next generation.

However, no matter how unreliable the Iron Harriers are, Chage must now rely on them. Because in the entire Western Xia, only these 3,000 armored iron cavalry can fight against the Song army armored cavalry that is becoming more and more terrifying.

……

The sky gradually brightened, and the mountains and rivers by the Wuding River were shrouded in the golden morning light, as if they were also dyed with blood, as if God wanted to expand the bloody slaughter that was taking place in the city of Tongwan to all directions.

The brutal and violent fighting in Tongwan City is still ongoing. Although the western thieves in the city were subjected to an unprecedented explosive siege, and lost their unified command from the beginning. But after all, there are tens of thousands of party soldiers and tens of thousands of civilians in the city, and the so-called civilians are not completely incapable of resisting. Even old and weak women have a little ability to fight.

Moreover, there can be more than 20 squares in Tongwan City, which is actually a small city. Although the two cities of the east and west have been broken, once the gates of these small cities are closed and the gaps are filled, they can still be held!

In addition, the middle wall separating the east and west cities is also in the hands of the party. The walls were crowded with civilians crying and scolding, and the walls were filled with soldiers retreating from all directions. At both ends of this section of the city wall, Song troops armed with shields or spears have appeared. They all formed a phalanx of 100 people, and under the personal dispatch of Zhao Zhongge, they took turns to attack and kill mercilessly.

However, the party members who could not retreat were still putting up their last resistance, although Wu Haogu and Tong Guan had already sent the captured old party men who could speak Chinese to persuade them to surrender. But it was refused, because the party members who were still resisting knew that their capital was in command, and the army of King Chage of Jin was nearby!

As long as the army of His Royal Highness the King of Jin returns, the tide of the battle in Tongwancheng can be reversed, and everyone will not have to become slaves of the Han people!

Therefore, the battle on the wall in the city of Tongwan became extremely tragic. Although the party members lost their unified command, they fell into chaos for a time. However, there were still many generals and colonels of the Western Xia army on the crowded city walls, and they could barely organize resistance. And the space on the city wall is limited, and the combat mode is relatively simple, except for archery, it is to collide in formation, and then squeeze each other.

The two sides just squeeze over, and I push over. In this "squeezing" operation, the spearmen of the Song army showed unexpected combat effectiveness. The dense spear array attacked in an orderly manner under the cover of the arrows fired by the house slave warriors. Each impact can pierce the bodies of at least twenty Western thieves - the party is too dense to be stabbed out with spears.

However, as the corpses of the party members kept piling up, and the "corpse wall" was built by the living party members, the pikemen finally could not play. Brother Zhao Zhongge immediately dispatched the warriors to attack with swords and shields, wanting to take down the "corpse wall", but the party members also desperately resisted and actually repelled the attack of the warriors. The corpses also accumulated more and more, and the blood continued to flow out, pouring all over the city, dyeing the white walls a dark red color, and in the morning light, it was shocking to the extreme.

However, Zhao Zhongge did not have the slightest intention of giving up, and still continued to dispatch warriors to launch round after round of attacks. This is not to crush the enemy in one fell swoop, but to drain their stamina.

Now the offensive of the Song army was well organized, and it was possible to constantly rotate in order to rationalize the physical strength of the soldiers. And the party members were crowded into a heap, and there was no general who could give orders, so it was always the people at both ends of the city wall who were fighting hard. By daybreak, they had fought so hard that they had finally lost the wall of corpses.

However, the bloody battle is still going on on the narrow wall of Tongwan City, and soon there will be a new corpse wall and a new bloody battle!

And everywhere in the city, fierce battles were waged in the capital office of the Divine Brave Army Division in the left chamber and in the warehouses where hundreds of thousands of stone grain and grass were hoarded. Wu Yi Boma left two commanded soldiers and horses to guard two important places. Wu Haogu assigned Yang Keshi and Wang Yu to lead four commanders to attack, two of which were warrior commanders, both of whom were composed of veterans who had already obtained the house.

They have all experienced last year's series of battles, they have very rich combat experience, and their martial arts have also been honed in actual combat, so they should have been the sharpest fighters. But because the house has been acquired, the goal of struggle has been lost - the next thing is to exchange the head for merit and reward, and the amount of the reward is also discounted, which is the same amount as the ordinary forbidden army. In the words of later generations, they are not "just needed", so they are not so desperate. No matter how Yang Keshi and Wang Yu shouted, those warriors were just attacking unhurriedly, and those who could solve it with bows and arrows would never fight hand-to-hand, and those who could make the pikemen charge would never get on their own horses.

However, the performance of the two spear commanders surprised Yang Keshi and Wang Yu. These pikemen often formed small but dense phalanxes and horizontal formations in units of the capital rank (100 men) and 10 generals (25 men), and took turns to charge under the cover of archers (warriors). In the face of this kind of spear-like attack, the panicked western thieves didn't even have the strength to resist. After entering Tongwan City, the enemies encountered along the way rarely need pikemen to launch a second round of strong attacks. It wasn't until Yang Keshi and Wang Yu led people to the capital office of the Left Wing Divine Warrior Division and the outside of the granary that they encountered a little trouble.

The capital office and granary of the Divine Warrior Division each occupy a fairly intact square outline, and as soon as the gate is closed, it is a small city that can be defended.

Of course, this kind of small city can't stop the Song army with two sapper commands - the walls of Tongwan City and the horse face can be full of tiger falls (that is, sharpened wooden stakes), as long as they are pulled out, what kind of siege equipment can't be built? But the problem is that it takes time to pull out the stakes and build siege equipment!

And how much time can the international famous general Gao Taiwei buy for the invincible Wu Haogu?

At this time, Wu Haogu had already taken the military command and climbed the north gate tower of the west city of Tongwan City. He was neatly draped and stood behind the battlements, holding a long telescope in both hands and looking at the dusty horizon in the distance.

The dust is flying, which means that a large number of war horses are galloping back and forth, and the cavalry fight may have begun. I can't spare the troops to support them now, and the only way is to cheer them on.

"Someone!" Wu Haogu suddenly shouted.

"Captain, what do you command?"

A military plane should stride forward.

Wu Haogu raised his hand and pointed to the city gate tower at the north gate of Tongwan East City and said, "Go quickly, set that city gate tower on fire!"

This official wants to let the general of the Western Thief know that the Tongwan City has been broken! ”

"Whoa!"
