The people sweated and dragged more than 100,000 catties of super cannons on the muddy land slowly, surrounded by the cavalry brigade composed of gorgeously dressed and well-equipped young rich sons and daughters guarding, the ragged husband and the mink Qiu Liangju young knight, it seems that there is a difference between cloud and mud, in fact, these gorgeous hoplite cavalry is just the escort of this group of people, and now there is nothing in the entire Mongolian army that can affect people's hearts more than the smooth placement of Shenwu cannons.

At this time, there was a familiar sound like thunder in the distance, which was a familiar movement of the Mongolian army, and after a while, several red figures appeared on the skyline, and the red spread along these people, filling the skyline full. Thousands of cavalry of the Song Army, men and horses are wearing vermilion armor, carrying a long back flag behind them, on which the four characters of the national warrior are neatly written, under the light wind, thousands of the warrior of the country are hunting and hunting in the wind, as if it is a war music that has been played before the battle, fluttering between the men and horses of the enemy and us.

"The whole army is moving forward, the focus is on destroying the enemy's super artillery!" Han Feng, who was riding on the black horse, shouted: "A rush forward, no way forward!" ”

His decisive order ushered in a tsunami-like response: "Take the lead, and move forward!" ”

"Stay! Stay! Li Tingzhi's anxious shout suddenly came from the rear, but seeing him hurrying up, he came to Han Feng and shouted: "Before the battle, how could the prime minister say to Dutong?" Dutong was frivolous and warlike in his life, and as soon as the enemy provoked the slightest provocation, he personally led thousands of elites directly through the enemy's formation, and because of such a brave and robust tactic, he achieved a lot of achievements, and suffered losses because of it. Today is the decisive battle between the two countries gambling on their fate, and they are both responsible for commanding tens of thousands of troops and setting a heavy responsibility for the command of the Great Song Dynasty. If the capital is slightly worse, how should the tens of thousands of elites in the middle of the army deal with themselves, and they will not regret it until the dragons are defeated by the Mongols when they are leaderless? ”

Han Feng smiled and shook his head: "Xianggong's Shenwu New Army, which is different from the army in the past, may not have noticed that the soldiers and officers who have been uniformly trained by the front division of the palace are not so dependent on the main general, not to mention that I left the deputy general Zhang Weixiao there, Zhang Weixiao has been passed on the art of war by Xianggong over the years, and he has made a slight success, and he will not make a big mistake in marching in a step-by-step manner." My battlefield is not under the banner of Pixiu, but in the midst of the enemy's army! ”

He took the black and shiny spear from the hands of his own soldiers, raised it above his head, and shouted loudly: "First break the Shenwu cannon, and then take the thief directly!" With that, he knocked the horse's belly, and the black horse understood, and rushed forward. Several relatives hurriedly held his banner and followed closely. The army roared in unison and marched on horseback.

Li Tingzhi couldn't stop it, only Pegasus returned to the Chinese army to report to Zheng Yunming, although Zheng Yunming was furious, he was helpless, so he had to say to Bai Yijie on the side: "Only if the military division is tired, this Han Feng has to cure his problem!" ”

Bai Yijie shook his feather fan and said slowly: "In fact, Han Feng's strength lies in the decisive conflict, and others are extremely smart, not the kind of rough person who is easily provoked by the enemy and recklessly attacks. This attack is not necessarily a move to light the enemy's wave war. ”

"It's too late to say anything." Zheng Yunming snorted: "I can only pray that this kid doesn't really go up and fight with others as soon as he gets hot, he should know that this is a gamble that must not be lost!" ”

Zheng Yunming's worries were naturally a little superfluous. The charge launched by Han Feng and all the cavalry under his command happened to stifle this flaw that appeared in a very short period of time for the Mongols. Under the continuous impact of the Song army, the Han army in the north of the front line seemed to be overwhelmed, and the marshal of the proton army in the world, Alihan, had to invest 10,000 people in the proton army to carry out a counter-charge against the Song army. Now the 8,000 cavalry is like a rainbow, and the target is directly aimed at the Shenwu cannon that is slowly moving on the road.

But if you want to destroy the Shenwu cannon, you must first pass the level of the proton army guarding around the Shenwu cannon, more than 10,000 proton army elites did not receive the interference of the panic in the army at all, but saw the red torrent of the enemy army surging here, ignited the fighting spirit, young people are always easy to be infected by the fierce battlefield fighting, especially these young nobles who have long wanted to win a glory for their family under the strict training of their father and brother since childhood, and they became more and more excited when they saw the enemy surging in. Without waiting for the ten thousand households leading the troops to give the order, some of the proton army cavalry took care of themselves and launched a hedge against the oncoming Song army cavalry.

The two sides approached a distance of dozens of paces, the proton army took off the bow and arrow and shot at the Song army, and the Song army each untied the short musket from the saddle bridge to counterattack, the Song army's horse short fire gun has always been a cavalry used to resist the Mongolian cavalry bow and arrow, at a distance of dozens of steps, the cavalry horizontal musket salvo made up for the lack of accuracy, while the Mongolian war horses were easily frightened by the sound of muskets and the smell of gunpowder, because the cavalry took turns to bombard the enemy's archers with short guns became the fixed tactics of the Song army.

But this time, the Song cavalry did not seem to be willing to do this, and after firing the two muskets on the saddle bridge, they immediately swung their sabers and spears and rushed through in several neat formations. To be precise, this is not the first time that the direct assault method has been used in the Song army, in fact, the cavalry generals who like direct assault in the Song army far exceed the generals who use muskets to fire in rotation, probably because the cavalry is a very proud class, even in the face of the Mongolian archers who come and go, most cavalry generals prefer to rely on sabers and courage rather than muskets as the main weapon.

Zheng Yunming's reform can be described as appropriate, after the new military training of the Song cavalry, although the combat skills are still not comparable to the elite cavalry of the Mongols, but the discipline is far more than the Mobei nomadic warriors who are accustomed to scattered battles, when the Mongolian young knights try to use bravery to solve the opponent in front of him, he always faces three or five sabers, or two or three riding spears alone, no wonder Han Rui is so contemptuous of the fierce opponent when he recalls this battle in the future:" They run around like ducks in a vegetable garden, and the hardest thing is to catch them, and once they can fight in close quarters, it is not much more difficult to annihilate them than to kill a duck. ”

The torrent of red cavalry quickly overwhelmed the black enemy, and swooped straight at the panicked people and the stagnant Shenwu cannons on the avenue. The proton army guarded around the Shenwu cannon, and began to accumulate a dense formation, they are also brave men who shoulder the glory of the clan, and it is impossible for them to run away in embarrassment like the Han people, not to mention that at this time, more than 10,000 proton troops are assembled, just like a large black cloud in the field, and the momentum is enough to match the red cavalry torrent.

With the sound of sharp copper whistles, the cavalry of the Song army began to stop the horse's hooves and began to rearrange the formation at a distance of 200 paces from the proton army's large array, but to the surprise of the Mongol army, they did not rush to attack immediately after arranging the formation, and the cavalry team automatically divided into passages and launched elite bronze artillery from the passages.

In the era of rampant cavalry, the biggest problem that needs to be solved in the military is that the cavalry and the speed and heavy artillery can not be consistent, usually when the cavalry gallops a hundred miles a day and night to attack the enemy, the heavy artillery can only slowly move forward in the rear hundreds of miles, the cavalry and artillery seem to live in two completely different war worlds, the former is light and agile, and wins the victory with maneuver and dexterity, and the latter is heavy and slow, and succeeds with power and shock. However, the Mongols founded the country on horses, and it was absolutely impossible to carry out a comprehensive renewal of strategy and tactics around artillery, and people who did not understand the art of war always thought that updating their strategy and tactics and operational thinking was as easy as changing clothes, but they did not know that these things were traditions deeply rooted in the soul of an army, and it was tantamount to asking a person to come back from the dead. But now the Mongols have relied on the cavalry group to run rampant in the world for 20 years without an opponent, and only recently they have slowly fallen slightly in various places, not to mention the emperor-level figures such as the Great Khan, King Kublai Khan, and King Hulegu, even if it is an ordinary Mongolian brand leader, he will never have the slightest doubt about the tactics of the large cavalry group of his army.

However, whenever they launched a charge against the well-guarded Song infantry supported by a large number of artillery, they often suffered extremely heavy casualties, and the Mongol army's response to this was to exaggerate the importance of spirit, and to encourage the soldiers to mobilize their greatest courage to rush straight forward in the face of the enemy's guns, which of course would cause heavy casualties, but once they rushed into the Song army's artillery position, the Song artillery could hardly resist the enemy's swords.

On the other hand, the cavalry of the Song army carried out tactical operations around their own artillery most of the time, and even the most famous cavalry general, Han Feng, complained: "The horse team is a mother, carrying the infantry at one end, and the artillery at the other." In the Battle of Baimei Mountain on the Sichuan Road, 3,000 Song cavalry launched a surprise attack on the well-prepared Mongol position, and more than half of them were killed, and most of the remaining were wounded.

Zheng Yunming had already thought of countermeasures, and later history gave him excellent answers, but the limitations of technology have always prevented him from implementing the expected solutions, until there has been a new breakthrough in cannon casting technology.
