Chapter 467: Battle of Shuozhou (5)

While continuing to attack Shuozhou, while rejecting reinforcements in the east, after conquering Shuozhou, there is a stable starting position in the west of Taiyuan Mansion, and you can continue to attack Yanmen Pass immediately!

The sound of hooves came to the ground, and these nervous and tired pale bullets didn't care about how their arrays were twisted and uneven, and they panted and nervously drew out all kinds of step bows, and they didn't even have time to insert the feather arrows in rows on the ground for easy access.

While watching the Song Army's iron cavalry getting closer and closer in front of him, he quickly opened his bow and arrows! The sound of hooves came to the ground, and in the eyes of these pale bullets, those fiery red jumping helmets seemed to have filled all sight.

Since they joined the Jurchens, they have always watched the Jurchen iron horses ravage each other, how could they have thought that stepping into this Southern Dynasty, which is said to be known for its weakness, would actually have to face such an iron horse formation!

In the angry shouts of the Jurchen generals, hundreds of bows finally opened into a full moon, and the Song army armor in front of them had already rushed to a distance of thirty or forty paces.

In a breath, he could crash into the formation, and even the Jurchen knights of the Pucha Wulie tribe who were facing the city turned around in a panic. Finally, I heard a loud string sound, and hundreds of arrows with sharp and slender armor-piercing cones had already **** out!

At this distance, there is no need to throw, these hundreds of feather arrows, all of them are fired horizontally, these cangtou bullets are the main force of bow and crossbow output in the Jurchen army, these auxiliary armies, can survive under the cruel rule of the Jurchens against them, ruthless servitude, and even in the lower level such as the grassland Zahu, the head of the Han of the Liao State as a prestige, all of them are good archers of all ethnic groups in the north.

The bow used was strong, hundreds of feathered arrows shot out in volleys, and there was a sharp whistling sound in the air! At such a close distance, all strong bows are used. Even if you're wearing a layer of heavy armor, you can be shot through!

The bullet pressure of the cangtou in the front can even be clearly seen that the iron face of the Song army armor soldier who rushed to the front has fallen, revealing a simple and loyal face, facing the **** of the feather arrow. The Song soldier didn't even raise his eyebrows.

In an instant, his mount and his body were splashed with blood, and more than ten feather arrows shot through the chest and face of his mount, and he was also hit by four or five arrows, which were deeply submerged in his body, and one arrow pierced his cheek!

But this armor soldier still stepped the spurs into the belly of the beloved horse. The hard-wounded war horse, with a long neigh, still tried his last strength, rushed forward more than ten steps before falling to the ground, and the armor soldier was just before the war horse fell to the ground, stepped on the stirrup sound, roared angrily and threw the spear out of his hand, and the spear shot at the lightning. The two Jurchen infantry soldiers in front and behind were nailed in one place, and the Song army armor soldier fell down with the mount!

From the head of Shuozhou City. Niu Gao's impact can be seen clearly, countless arrows and locusts rose from the Jurchen infantry array, and pieces of blood splashed from the iron flow of the Jinyang army. There are no knights who fall from their horses, and there are not many horses that fall to the ground. The first few rows of Song army armor soldiers were almost swept away by this dense rain of arrows.

But this iron horse still did not make a sound, and it was as if it could never be stopped. Then he crashed into the Jurchen infantry array again! Under such an indomitable impact, the Jurchen infantry army array composed of these cangtou bullets is no better than the Zahu infantry army.

It was the same long scream, the same blade that was swept down by the stab rolled up the sky with bloody light, and it was also slammed into the air. was also trampled into the mud and dust by the war horse! The infantry array composed of seven or eight hundred people suddenly collapsed, and in an instant, the Song army armor had already entered the depth, and at this point when they were hit by the iron horse, the chaos spread rapidly.

The bullets that were lucky enough to survive under the horse's hooves were bumping everywhere, just trying to avoid the ravages of the iron cavalry of this strong army of the Southern Dynasties, and the screams and wails of various languages rang out in one piece, seeing that this chaos was about to expand more and more, until the entire array collapsed!

And at this time, those Jurchen armored horsemen of the Pucha Wulie Department who were lined up in the rear finally reacted, and several Mouke shouted loudly, these hundreds of Jurchen iron horsemen didn't care if there would be military horses out of the city in Shuozhou City to attack, turned around, urged the mounts, and stepped into the infantry array composed of those cangtou bullets from behind!

For those who stood in the way, the Jurchen armor rode the same merciless longitudinal horse overturning, wielding a knife and slashing, under the attack at both ends, the seven or eight hundred auxiliary troops who worked for the Jurchens cried and wailed ten times louder, and in an instant, they were killed all over the place, from front to back, and completely collapsed at once!

The two sides of the horse, I don't know how many times they collided again today, and then they slashed each other mercilessly, both sides were tired and abnormal, both sides fought the last blood bravery, I don't know how many knights fought each other, stabbed each other's spears into each other's chests, and then planted each other's horses together.

Fell off the vest and rode on, but there was a breath of air, and it was still entangled and scuffled, until it was trampled by the chaotic horses, Niu Gao's department, after destroying the Zahu light cavalry, after driving back the Jurchen cavalry on the east wing, and then attacking the city of Shuozhou, and after breaking down the infantry array composed of the Jurchen auxiliary army, it was finally blocked and stopped all the way to this point!

Above the city, Yu Hualong's eyes widened, and together with all the soldiers and soldiers, he watched the reinforcements in front of him fight desperately to the death with their last breath, watching them kill through the enemy formation all the way, rushing all the way to a stone's throw away from Shuozhou City, and seeing that the Jurchens used all their means to finally stop the last step of their desperate battle.

The smoke and dust were rolling behind, and hundreds of Jurchen armor riders led by Yin Keshu finally arrived at this time, whether it was Yang Zhi or Niu Gao's department, today's battle has reached the level of the highest peak of the cavalry army in this era.

But the Jurchen cavalry they faced was also the pinnacle of the armed forces of this era, and they were also running all the way south, and they were also exhausted, but the Jurchen cavalry was also fighting from beginning to end, looking for the elite collision of the Jinyang army again and again, and there was no intention of retreating.

It seems that no matter how many life-for-life battles the southerners have to fight with heavy casualties, they will accompany these Jurchen military horses to the end! The tragic scene of the cavalry melee on the battlefield, after the Yinkeshu Department finally caught up and joined, finally let the Jurchens have the upper hand, and the speed of the horses on both sides has completely decreased, that is, they are fighting in a narrow range, and their lives are being consumed rapidly.

Yu Hualong watched as a Song army armor soldier who looked like a military general was too tired to wield his long blade. He could only draw his sword, rush left and right, and slash desperately, and the knights who guarded him kept falling off their horses, and were scattered, until they came later. There were only two or three lonely riders around him.

And the Jurchens also seemed to find out that this was the general of the Song army, and more armored cavalry surrounded and killed, and the Song army general used his last strength to shout and fight, the sword was knocked away, and all the guards around him fell off their horses, but he still grabbed the spear that came from the piercing and fought hard!

Then a few spears pierced into his body fiercely, and the Song army general was shocked and froze immediately. And the Jurchen armor wanted to snatch back the spear that he had taken, but it was like this spear inserted into the mountain, and he could not snatch it back!

Yu Hualong didn't know that this general, who fought to the end and had twenty-nine wounds on his body, and there was no blood when he died, was Wang Gui, the deputy capital of the left wing of the Jinyang Army!

Yu Hualong is both blood-red, and he only hates why there are no more people in the city who can go out of the city to fight! The sound of swans resounded in the sky again. Yu Hualong's gaze slowly turned to the eastern skyline. Under the sun, which was already setting in the west, another row of cavalry opened the array, and the red triangular flame tooth banner hunted and danced in front of the formation.

Then when he was the first general, he also silently flattened the horse lance in his hand, and hundreds of snow bright blades hung down at the same time. Point to the enemy! And reinforcements are coming! There are also those who dare to fight!

It's still the Jinyang Army! Da Song He is lucky, he has to meet Xiao Yang's general, and there must be such a Jinyang army! The Jurchen horses were still fighting hard under the city, and they also heard the sound of swans in the western sky.

At this time, even the most brave Jurchen armor warriors were a little cold and depressed. How could this strong army of southerners be so tenacious? One is gone, and the other comes, as if it were endless, as if it could never be killed!

But with this strong army of the southerners, how can we Jurchens destroy this southern dynasty? At the same time, the horns of the Jurchen army also sounded in the west, and at the eastern skyline, a Jurchen cavalry army also opened the array.

Under the black banner, these Jurchen military horses also flattened their blades, and another Jurchen Mouke from Pucha Wulie's department also joined the battlefield, and both sides were doing their best to put their troops into the Shuozhou battlefield on this day!

Yin Keshu has also gone into battle in person, covered in blood, and when the southerner reinforcements appear again, he may be the only one, and his heart is still as hard as iron. At this time, he just shouted: "The southerners want to fight!" We're here to fight them to the end! Look who is standing here last! ”

The blood-colored smoke and dust shrouded the Shuozhou battlefield for a long time, the sun was hanging in the west, and the sunlight reflected the blood in the smoke and dust doubly strongly, on the battlefield, too many human and horse corpses had been piled up, and the originally dry ground was filled with puddles and puddles. Zahu, Jurchen, Hanmin, Xi Ren, Song Jun, thousands of corpses fell on the battlefield.

Such a vicious battle, since the Song Dynasty destroyed the Northern Han Dynasty, for more than 100 years, Hedong has not seen it! And the battle between the Jinyang army and the Jurchen army and horses is still in the midst of a tragic battle.

Before dark, the reinforcements on both sides arrived separately, and they all joined the battlefield without hesitation, at this time there was no array, that is, they rushed to the scene, collided fiercely, and then they were entangled and scuffled under the city of Shuozhou, and the roars of Han and Jurchen resounded in the battle array, for this Shuozhou point, the elite cavalry of both sides were put into the battlefield in waves, and then quickly consumed!

On the city wall of Shuozhou, how many soldiers and civilians flocked to Yu Hualong, who was watching the battle, and fell to the ground one after another: "General, let us go out of the city and fight!" At this time, just looking at it, they are all five-foot-tall men, and they are nothing more than death! ”

These men who fled in the officials and the garrison troops in the two states were defeated by the wind, and were collected by Yang Ling and guarded Shuozhou City alone, or the unappreciated garrison forbidden army under Yu Hualong, or the shop soldiers who were responsible for the post delivery, or the armor guards near Shuozhou, or the strong hunters in the countryside, or the hawkers in the city, or the craftsmen and laborers.

These miscellaneous characters, when the pampered people in the past took the lead in abandoning the people and fleeing, these people were when the Jinyang army stepped forward to organize and defend the city, whether they wanted to kill the Tartars, or they were originally the people under their command who habitually obeyed the orders, or simply coveted the Jinyang army to open the treasury, and there was a reward of 400 pure copper for every day of defending the city.

In short, they all stayed in this Shuozhou city, and when Wang Gui came to help, they had the support of fighting, and they threw arrows and stones in the city, and defended the lonely city for two days, and waited until Yang Ling went to Taiyuan to clean up the situation, and waited until Yang Ling tried his best to collect batches of reinforcements to put in this direction to block the Jurchen surging south!

And batches of Jinyang troops came to help, and then threw themselves into the battlefield without hesitation, fighting to the last person, such a majestic scene, how could not the people in it be bloody, just to kill the enemy side by side with these good men? As long as you touch the crotch, you can also touch two bird eggs!

And the corpses of the people under the city who were like mountains and were driven to fill in the trenches also illustrate what it is if you don't fight hard with these Jurchen Tartars and wait for the fate of the Han family.

At this time, even if they are not accustomed to fighting, even if they are not fully equipped, even if the bloody battle on the battlefield has reached the most tragic level, these soldiers and soldiers defending the city are also fighting with Yu Hualong.

If you watch the Jinyang army fight bloodily outside the city like this, even if you are lucky for the rest of your life, you will never see anyone again! Yu Hualong has been staring at the battlefield deadly, in the melee battle group, the reinforcements from both sides have been put in, and they are all desperately trying their best, and then killing an evenly matched match, just exchanging lives for each other.

In the hundreds of horsemen who came to the aid of the right time, a 20-year-old general was shouting for a fierce battle, leading the guards to rush left and right, and the horse lance he used was also different from the military system, not only longer and thicker, but also with small branches under the lance, as if it was the system of a one-sided halberd.

Yu Hualong, who watched the battle at the head of the city, naturally didn't know that although Guo Sheng was not as good as him in the Jinyang Army, he was also a rising star who was famous as a fighting general in the army.

Since the fiasco of the Huanqing Army, Guo Sheng was unwilling to sink and switch to the Jinyang Army, his ability has been fully demonstrated, from the original small cavalry ten generals, sent has become the commander of the main force, and further, it is also expected, Guo Sheng's future in the army is absolutely immeasurable!
