Chapter 279: Heavy losses

At this moment, Di Feng rushed over, and the iron shovel in his hand flew out, hitting the body of the cow, drilling through the iron armor it was wearing, and hitting the heart, the giant bull fell to the ground violently, and Jiang Xuan also fell.

Di Feng rushed up and pulled out the iron shovel, while Jiang Xuan jumped up and threw himself next to the cow corpse, stretched out his hand and pulled out the medicine and threw it aside.

At this time, the mournful roar of the giant bull came one after another, Jiang Xuan and Di Feng turned their heads to look, and saw that Sun Hui stabbed down another giant bull and cut off the medicine, and in just a short period of time, six giant bulls had fallen under his knife.

At this time, there were still three giant bulls rampage in the formation, Sun Hui was about to fly forward to assassinate them, but saw a young man rushing up with a big axe, rolling and slashing, and cutting off the hooves of the giant bull with an axe, the giant bull fell to the ground with a cry of sorrow, and the young man immediately pounced on another giant bull.

Seeing that this young man didn't even think of pulling out the medicine, Sun Hui couldn't help grinning.

At this time, he was some distance away from the giant bull, and he was about to fly forward, but he saw two Song army foot soldiers rush forward and pull out the medicine Minoru.

The young man swung his axe and cut down a giant bull, and it was his companion who came up to pull out the medicine, and when he pounced on the last giant bull, Sun Hui saw that the powder jar on the cow was about to burn to the end, and his heart sank.

At the last moment, a black rope flew out of nowhere, and at once wrapped itself around the waist of the young man with the axe, picked him up, and pulled him away from the bull.

The young man's body flew straight up, and hit several of his companions who had caught up, and the gang fell to the ground at once, and the moment they fell to the ground, there was a loud bang, and the powder jar on the giant bull exploded.

Although Sun Hui was far away, his ears were also buzzing, but he didn't care about this, his eyes fell on the person who rescued the young man in time.

Hu Liying, who was dressed in light armor, looked at him with a smile, and disappeared into the smoke and dust in a flash.

The sound of iron hooves passed behind him like a raging wind, Sun Hui and Jiang Xuan turned around at the same time, and saw that the Song cavalry forward was galloping at high speed, looking up to the sky and shooting a rain of arrows, and the cavalry of the Jin Army on the opposite side also entered the range at the same time, shooting a rain of arrows at the same time, and the rain of arrows on both sides was dense enough to collide in mid-air. This is the most shocking and tragic cavalry charge on the grassland, and the glory of a man is to spur the war horse to gallop proudly against the enemy's arrow rain.

The cavalrymen, who had avoided the first rain of arrows, drew their swords from their saddles at the same time, and the sound of swords was piercing, and the shouts of killing filled the clouds. At this point, the infantry battle was over, and the cavalry of both sides began to take over the battlefield.

In Taiyuan City, Emperor Jin Wanyan Wu begged to hide in a secret room, anxiously waiting for the battle report.

Because he was afraid that Sun Hui would be unfavorable to him, at the insistent request of the ministers and generals, he could only hide here and wait for the end of the battle.

Wanyan Wu begged to be a little anxious in his heart, his troops had all been handed over to Wanyan Zonghan to command - the battle formation was not his strength, he knew, but after so long, Wanyan Zonghan had not heard from him. According to the time calculation, the vanguard of the Jin army has now engaged the Song army. He knew very well that the Song army sent 50,000 horses to come this time, not to spy on the reality of the Jin army, but to lure his army into the encirclement. But he didn't care that his army stepped into the encirclement of the Song army, the scouts he sent had been closely monitoring the surrounding situation, there was no large group of Song cavalry haunted, with the current strength of the Song army, even if it was an ambush, at most 50,000 or 60,000 people, and the 50,000 cavalry bought by Wanyan Wu could level these Song army ambushes.

But there was no news back for a long time, which made him feel a little ominous.

A scout walked in briskly.

"Engaged?" Wanyan Wu begged to buy it and finally couldn't hold it back, and went up to grab the scout's collar.

"The front army fought hard! The 40,000 cavalry in the vanguard of our army was stopped by the Song army! The losses are huge! The scout gasped.

"Which troop is it? Who is the leader? Is it the Jingsai Army? Wanyan Wu begged to buy and roared. The former question was the one he desperately wanted to answer, but the latter did not need an answer, and it was said that the only one in the Song army who could fight his Iron Harrier cavalry was the Jingsai Army, which was said to have defeated the cavalry of the Liao "Iron Forest Army" that was rampant in the grassland. He estimated that this cavalry should also be in this 50,000-strong Song army this time. He only wanted to know who the other side was leading the army now. He was unwilling to be burned in his heart, and the elite cavalry he had trained for many years still suffered a setback in front of the Song army.

"I don't know that the generals of the other side are not the Jingsai army, they are foot soldiers, they are in front of the formation, and when our cavalry passes by, they jump up and cut down the horses. The striker's horses lost hundreds of horses in an instant. ”

"Foot soldiers?" Wanyan Wu Qimai's hand grasping the collar of the scout tightened suddenly, "How many infantry?" Why don't you let the horse step over? ”

He couldn't believe the news, he was also a Jurchen man on horseback, and he knew the terrifying speed and power of the war horse charging up. The horse that charges up is a beast, not a human flesh and blood can stop it, and those who dare to stop the charge of the war horse will see tens of thousands of flying iron hooves surging to trample him into mud. In fact, the Jurchen cavalry never really encountered an opponent, and there was nothing that could put an end to the tactics of the fierce horses.

But he couldn't help but believe this scout, one of his most elite subordinates, who had never made a mistake.

"There are about more than 10,000 people, they are set up in a shield formation, and there are archers behind them, but it is because our army's war horses are blocked, and they have also tried to trample forcibly, many war horses have broken their hooves, and we have lost more than 5,000 horses, and the charge behind is blocked by the carcasses of horses."

"10,000 foot soldiers?" Wanyan Wu Qimai felt a chill in his heart, "Why don't you get off the horse and fight?" ”

"The dismounted people did not have time to gather, they were surrounded and killed by the enemy, and there was no chance to return fire."

"What about the fire cow? Let the fire bull out! Flatten them! Blow them up! ”

"Fire Bull...... Killed! ”

Wanyan Wu Qimai grabbed the scout's collar tightly, almost lifted it up, and glared at him with wide eyes, as if he wanted to swallow him in one gulp. He wanted to ask something, but he couldn't ask, he poured out the entire army of the Jin State to sweep the Song State with a sweeping momentum, but he suffered an unbelievable defeat in the first battle. All the problems seemed ridiculous at this time, and if the anger in his heart was released, he could burn everything on this plain, but he was helpless.

"What about the demon? Did you show up? Wanyan Wu begged to calm himself down and asked.
