Chapter Eighty-Five: The Great Horse Dipper Guo Jin

"Kill all the golden dogs!"

Guo Jin held a golden cooked copper stick, strode forward, rushed to the front of the military formation, the iron rod swept, and had already smashed the centurion of the golden soldiers who rushed to the front under the horse, and then beat the centurion to pieces.

At this time, the other two golden soldiers rushed forward with angry shouts. Guo Jin did not retreat but advanced, and the big stick came first, and he overturned two war horses.

Guo Jin's ferocity did not scare the Jin soldiers. Hundreds of horsemen rushed in. More than a dozen horsemen rushed towards this tall Song warrior with anger in their eyes. If you don't kill this killing god, don't even think about killing these hoplites.

The body wearing three layers of heavy armor was still extremely flexible, and Guo Jin fell backwards, just retreating into the heavy armored infantry team. Facing the roaring Jurchen Iron Horse, Guo Jin's mouth once again issued an order that made the Jurchen Iron Horseman's heart chill.

"Cut!"

Hundreds of long knives slashed straight down in the snowy sunlight. More than a dozen Jurchen iron horsemen who rushed in front were immediately broken in two. Even if they used the weapons in their hands to cover their weapons, they still couldn't stop this unstoppable knife formation.

The snare drums in the rear of the Jurchens were in a hurry. The Jurchen Iron Cavalry had no way out. If you don't want to die in disgrace by the sword of the Overseer, then die by the sword of the Protector. The Jurchen soldiers shouted slogans in Jurchen words and continued to charge at the hoplites in waves.

"Cut! Harvest! Chop! ”

Guo Jin's words had a sense of rhythm in them, which just fit the long sword formation of the heavy infantry. In Guo Jin's roar, the heavy infantry slowly moved forward, the sword light rose and fell, and the Jurchen iron cavalry fell off their horses one after another.

The essence of the glaive array lies in the recess in the middle, which can be supported by crossbowmen on both wings. If the enemy hits the mid lane, it will only knock back the mid-range. However, the more the midrange retreats, the more the crossbowmen on both wings shrink inward, and the crossbow becomes more threatening to the attacking enemy. At the time of the Two Jin Dynasty, Liu Yu, who was born as a herdsman, relied on this glaive array to defeat the 50,000 cavalry of the Xianbei tribe with 7,000 Beifu soldiers.

However, although the combat power of the Protector Army is not inferior to that of the Beifu soldiers, especially the more than 10,000 veterans of the First Division, it can definitely be compared with the elite soldiers of any era. But the combat effectiveness of the Jurchen Iron Cavalry is definitely not comparable to Murong De's cavalry.

No matter how fierce Guo Jin was, no matter how tenacious Xu Xuanhua on both wings was to the west, he still couldn't stop the Jin soldiers from advancing step by step. The golden soldiers were compressing the elastic space of the Glaive Array. Once the Glaive Great Array is turned into a long snake formation, it will not be far from the time to drive the Protector Army down the Yellow River.

Kill from morning to afternoon, from afternoon to night. and from night to night. Thousands of torches were lit on each side, illuminating the north bank of the Yellow River as if it were daylight. The warriors of the two nations fought to the death under the blazing firelight.

In such a fight, the tide of the battle quickly tilted to the side of the Jin soldiers. It's not that the golden soldiers are strong, but that there are many golden soldiers. The benefits of the round-robin attack are evident. All the 10,000 people who came forward to attack were mostly energetic and full of body. On the Protector side, the 25,000 infantry could be divided into three draws and resisted in turn. As the number of sacrifices increased, the three pulls were replaced by two pulls, and the two pulls became one pulls. By the time the blood-red sun rose over the horizon again, more than 5,000 of the 25,000 Protector infantry had been killed. More than 7,000 were wounded. There are only 13,000 tired soldiers left who can fight.

Yes, tired soldiers. A day and a night of non-stop fighting, even an iron man can't stand it. Every Protector on the battlefield was black and out of breath. As for the heavy infantry that the Jin soldiers wanted to eliminate the most, it was sharply reduced from 700 to 400, almost more than half.

Guo Jin, who has always been tired, was finally so tired that he couldn't straighten his waist, and the cooked copper stick that he was handy with began to become heavy. But in front of the heavy infantry formation, the corpses of the golden soldiers were piled up at least a meter thick. Guo Jin alone killed at least more than 100 Jin soldiers.

Zhang Xian also lost the demeanor of a white-faced young man at this moment. He suffered three wounds, and only two hundred of the five hundred cavalry remained. In the middle of the night, Zhang Xian joined the battle. The 500 cavalry army repelled a golden soldier with a sharp spirit. However, under the counterattack of the second Jin Soldier Ten Thousand Corps, the 500 cavalry suffered heavy casualties.

"Brothers, are you afraid of death?"

Zhang Xian carried a big gun, stood at the front of the military formation, and shouted loudly.

"There are only the Protectors who died in battle, and there are no Protectors who are afraid of death." More than 10,000 Protectors responded in unison.

"That's good!" Zhang Xian shouted, "Brothers, please see, our brothers who were killed in battle and those who were wounded have reached the south bank of the Yellow River. Our 1st Division will not die. With more than 20,000 infantry, our feat of resisting 100,000 gold soldiers will surely be famous for future generations. Now, let's pick up the weapons in our hands and meet the all-out charge of the golden soldiers. We killed 10,000 golden dogs yesterday, plus more than 20,000 Han soldiers. Let's kill another 20,000 golden dogs today. If we can't kill 20,000 golden dogs, we can't die. Have faith? ”

At this time, the glaive array no longer exists. More than 10,000 Protectors once again formed a well-organized infantry phalanx, which was still standing in front of the pontoon bridge. Hua Chaoxi said loudly, "Master Zhang, how can it be enough to kill 20,000 golden dogs?" We need to kill at least 30,000 golden dogs before we can meet the brothers who go first. Isn't that what everyone says? ”

"No, no, no!" When Guo Jin heard this, he shook his brain like a copper bell. "Even if we die, we have to fight all these golden dogs."

"What an iron-clad Protector!"

Seeing that the Protector Army not only resisted the crazy attack of the Jin soldiers for a day and a night, but also took advantage of the dawn to let the lightly wounded help the seriously wounded, carry the corpses of the martyrs, and cross the pontoon bridge, even Zong Han, who was bent on eliminating the Protector Army, had to admire.

Jin Thirteen's eyes were also full of respect. In the past, there was only one such army in the world, and that was the Dajin Iron Cavalry. For example, there is one more today, and that is the Protector Army. Don't think about a quick victory in this battle. Even if all of Zhang Xian's army were left here, as long as they destroyed the pontoon bridge, they would be able to stop the 200,000 troops on the north bank of the Yellow River. It's easier said than done if you want to find a boat to cross the river!

Today, the north bank of the Yellow River has long been deserted. Even if some fishermen's boats can be found, it will be a drop in the bucket for the 200,000-strong army, and it will not help. From the combat strength of the Protector Army in front of them, Zong Hanxi, Yin Jin, Thirteen Sa, and Lu speculated that the battle situation on the south bank of the Yellow River may not be as optimistic as they thought.

Even if Wanyan Zongbi is an enemy of 10,000 people, in the face of such a tenacious protector army, he doesn't want to drive straight in. Maybe when they stopped at Zhuludu, Zong Bi's army had already been repelled by the Caozhou defenders.

Although they are both Jurchen sons, the increasingly harsh political struggle has made Zong Han and Zong Wang brothers increasingly estranged. Even if Zong Han had a sense of the overall situation, deep down in his heart at this moment, he was actually looking forward to Zong Bi's Eastern Route Army being defeated by the Protector Army.

"Zhang Xian has reached the end of his rope. Zong Han is extremely fierce, and in the next wave of attack, I am willing to personally lead the army to attack. The red-eyed Samoulu took the initiative to ask for battle. He couldn't help but be blushing, and after a day and a night of fighting, his 10,000-strong team lost 1,500 people.

Wanyan Xiyin very much agreed with Sa Moulu's opinion. "Zong Han is extremely vigorous, and General Sa is reasonable. We have to do it quickly. If you can wipe out these Protectors today. As long as we can get over the pontoon, we can catch up with the wounded soldiers and wipe them out completely. ”

"Big brother, Prime Minister Yin's words are reasonable. The Protector Army is already exhausted, and we will send the most elite 10,000 troops to attack, and it will be effective in one fell swoop. Jin Thirteen's eyes never left the Protectors. So he saw the exhaustion of the Protector Army.

Zong Han's eyes were like eagles, sweeping across the faces of the sergeants in the front row of the Protector Army, and finally stopped on Zhang Xian's face as he pursed his lips. "Zhang Xian can be described as a famous general. I heard that Yue Fei is just a Xiangzhou mud leg, how could he recruit so many elite soldiers! Wow, what is that rammer out of battle for? ”

The rammed goods in Zong Han's mouth are Guo Jin. Guo Jin's bravery in killing more than 100 golden soldiers had already fallen in Zong Han's eyes. Guo Jin walked out of the military formation dozens of steps and smashed the cooked copper stick to the ground, smashing it into the ground half a foot deep. Although Guo Jin let go, the cooked copper stick still stood firmly on the ground.

"The golden dog on the other side listened! Your grandfather is Guo Jin. I fought with you for a day and a night, and my grandfather didn't enjoy it. Now Grandpa stands here, challenging your best general! No matter what weapon you have, Lao Tzu can kill you with his bare hands. Do you hear me? Grandpa can kill you with his bare hands. Did anyone dare to come out and engage in the battle? Aren't you big gold warriors? Who dares to come up! ”

When Guo Jin said the last four words, he suddenly raised his voice.

"Who dares to come up!" Hundreds of heavy armored infantry saw that their own commander dared to single-handedly challenge the warriors of the Jin Army before the ten thousand armies, and they were even more combative, and roared in unison.

"Hehe, I didn't expect Zhang Xian to come to this point that he would even use the tactic of delaying the army! Does he think that by sending a rammer to fight the generals, he will be able to stop my army from charging? Dashuai, ignore this rammer, let me lead the army to rush up and trample him into a pulp. Sa Moulu was afraid that Zong Han would be provoked, so he said loudly.

Zong Han squinted his eyes and looked at the Protector Army, and suddenly shouted, "Sa Moulu, are you afraid of this rammer?" Send the best warriors in your army to kill this rammer. Half an hour later, we will attack again. ”

Sa Moulu was about to protest, but he heard Jin 13 say, "General Sa, have you forgotten how we can hunt roe deer in the mountains and forests?" I couldn't catch him for a long time, so I asked the roe deer to rest for a while, but the roe deer couldn't get up. ”

"Oh!"

Samoulu's eyes lit up, and he immediately understood Zong Han's intentions. He ordered his own guard, the commander of the Yelitai, to go into battle.

"Yelitai, go out and kill this rammer. I'll reward you with thirty beauties. ”

Yelitai is tall and big, like a man-bear. He carried a long knife and rushed in front of Guo Jin. "Nanban, lift your cooked copper stick!"

"Kill you golden dog, you don't need Lao Tzu's stick." Guo Jin clasped his hands in front of his chest and said extremely contemptuously.

"What an arrogant Southern Barbarian! Lie down for Lao Tzu! ”

Yelitai was no longer polite, and rushed straight on the horse, taking advantage of the horse's momentum, and slashed out. If this knife is chopped, it can definitely break through Guo Jin's three-layer heavy armor.

Guo Jin suddenly turned to one side and rushed forward against Ye Litai's long knife. But when the long knife was about a foot away from his head, Guo Jin's body suddenly fell to the ground, and a tiger pounced, not only avoiding the edge of the long knife, but also arching under the belly of the horse in Yelitai. Yelitai was overjoyed, and was about to trample Guo Jin to death on the war horse, when he suddenly felt that the war horse left the ground. When I looked down, I almost scared my pee.

It turned out that Guo Jin actually held the horse's belly with both hands, arched his shoulders, and carried the war horse. Guo Jin exhaled and threw the war horse out. Yelitai on the horse was about to jump up, but was dragged under the horse by Guo Jin. Without waiting for Ye Li Tai to stand up, Guo Jin stepped on Ye Li Tai's left leg with one foot, grabbed Ye Li Tai's right leg with both hands, and roared, and actually tore Ye Li Tai alive!
