The reinforcements from the east have been greeted by Zahu, and there is still a considerable distance from Shuozhou City!

Yu Hualong is definitely not inferior to anyone in the fight, but at this time, he can only open his eyes and watch, otherwise who will defend this city, but he still has a little talent and vision in commanding the army and horses.

In an instant, Yu Hualong understood the intention of the Jurchen military horse to move. It is necessary to use these infantry auxiliary troops to line up a solid array to the south and east outside the range of Shuozhou City's bow and crossbow, and there is also a cavalry army to suppress the formation.

In order to cut off the contact between the reinforcement horses and Shuozhou City. Reinforcements come from afar, and the quick battle is acceptable, but if it lasts, it will be useless. If you can't take the field situation of the city, the Jurchen side still has the possibility of breaking the reinforcements and Shuozhou City! This Jurchen army, in addition to its fierce combat strength, is the commander of the troops, and it is also the choice of the moment, the decision is so fast in the battle, and the dispatch is so flexible, the best way to deal with it is to attack the soldiers and horses in the city and cooperate with the reinforcements.

However, most of the remaining sergeants in Yuhua Dragon City are newly formed, and there are others who are strong, relying on the city garrison and barely being used, once attacking, they have not practiced the method of formation warfare, nor have they qualified combat power, and there are not enough generals to suppress the commander, even if there is a bloody bravery, under the ravages of the Jurchen iron cavalry, it is just to die, so Shuozhou City will be lost faster!

Can't attack! The city gate has to be closed quickly, and now both sides are desperately investing their troops to fight under the city, just for this point.

No matter what, we must do our best to protect the city, the creatures still in the city, and the overall situation of the war in Hedong!

The people were still struggling to pour into the city, and in the smoke and dust, a Jurchen iron cavalry rushing towards Shuozhou had begun to speed up, and the brigade of cangtou bullets also rushed with bows and knives.

The real army of women. Basically, it can be said that they are all cavalry troops, and the bullet pressure within each mouke constitutes the infantry part of the Jurchen army at this moment, and they are all brave men of all ethnic groups in the north who have been collected by the Jurchens in the wars in the past few years. I can fight, too!

At this moment, the Jurchen Department concentrated under the city of Shuozhou is the vanguard Mouke led by the Pucha Wulie Department, adding up to more than a dozen, and each Mouke Cangtou auxiliary army has a hundred people, which has been concentrated in one place by Yin Keshu and organized into a part of the infantry army.

Even riding and walking, there were thousands of people rushing to the direction of Shuozhou at this moment, and Yu Hualong suddenly shouted: "Close the city gate!" ”

Inside and outside the city gates, more than 100 soldiers and civilians were maintaining order. More than 200 people were prepared in the city gate, ready to close the city gate at any time, and a large number of earth and stones were also prepared. As soon as the city gate is closed, the city gate will be put to death and blocked.

Hearing Yu Hualong's order from the city, the soldiers and civilians immediately moved together to stop the people who were coming in, and the people who were left behind were all tired. I only felt lucky to escape a life. At this time, the soldiers and civilians were forced to retreat towards the city gate and block them outside. There are even more people who are ready to close the city gates, and these people who have survived the catastrophe naturally dare not compete with the soldiers and men with bows and swords.

Just crying loudly under the city, "All of us have one life!" The cry shook the sky, and Yu Hualong, who was in the city, turned pale, and pointed sharply at the smoke and dust rolling in the south: "The Jurchen Tartars have come to rob the city!" In order to be able to save you. We've done our best! Now is the most critical juncture of this war, and the lower officials beg all the fathers and elders to let us close the city gates! ”

When the words fell, Yu Hualong had already taken off his hood, less than forty years old. It was already half a head of white hair, and it was in the city, and he fell to the ground with a heavy bow! When the people looked back, they saw that in the smoke and dust, the reinforcements were still fighting bloody battles in the distance to the east, and the battle group of the iron cavalry that had come out of the city and swept past them was silent, and there were not many armor soldiers in the spot.

The Jurchen military horses that rushed from the west flank were already getting closer and closer, and a somewhat old, but sturdy common man stood up and shouted towards the city: "Close the door!" ”

The sound of Ying Harmony finally sounded, and then it sounded under the city, and only two words couldn't stop ringing.

"Close the door!" The older people touched the blades left behind by the siege under the city wall, and shouted at the people who were not allowed to enter the city.

"We are under the city, if the Tartars attack the city, fight to the death, don't lose those military masters who died for us!" The ragged people were silent, picked up the broken blades, stones, and sticks under the city, and stood against the city walls, never looking at the city gates again.

The two city gates were closed heavily, and when they were not closed, there were still soldiers and civilians who stepped forward and stood with these people! Yu Hualong stood up, looking at the Jurchen military horses that were getting closer and closer, watching the reinforcements' iron cavalry break through the Zahu array, and watching the Jurchen armored cavalry on the west wing finally tidy up the queue a little, and galloped towards the east wing.

As I said before, outside Shuozhou City, there are many strongholds, all of which are used to support Shuozhou City, after all, once the war starts, it can be each other's horns and support each other, as soon as the battle starts, each fortress is out of considerable soldiers and horses, come to the Shuozhou battlefield, or two or three hundred, or four or five hundred, the wind blows in general, and Wang Gui, the youngest of Yue Fei's brothers, is one of them.

The battle has been fought so far, both sides have done their best, both sides have suffered heavy casualties, and the outcome is still unknown, but dog tartars, you can't take Shuozhou City!

Niu Gao panted heavily, the horse lance in his hand was already hanging down, and he could no longer lift it, and beside him, hundreds of armored cavalry were still moving forward, and the Jurchen armored cavalry who had gathered on the battlefield was still retreating step by step.

Niu Gao didn't know why they made this choice, but this sortie, as well as the sacrifice of almost annihilating the entire army, won the opportunity to destroy the eastern flank of the Jurchens in one fell swoop for the arrival of the reinforcement vanguard led by him!

The smoke and dust in the west are rolling, where the Jurchen military horses have been assembled and sorted out, and without a little respite, they gallop to the east, at this moment, the Jurchens are boasting of the peak of their strength when they can fight back and forth in the formation for twenty rounds in heavy armor, and the smoke and dust are also spreading in the direction of Shuozhou, and the Jurchens divided a military horse to go straight to Shuozhou City.

How could Niu Gao not see that this was the arrangement of the Jurchen generals to cut off the connection between their own military horses and the city of Shuozhou? The robe of the west is gone, and at this time, it is necessary to turn to the direction of Shuozhou as soon as possible. Taking advantage of the fact that the Jurchen infantry array over there was not finished, he broke through the block, killed under the city of Shuozhou, relied on the defenders of the city, and then fought with the Tartars to the end!

Suddenly, there was a loud cheer from among his own horses. I saw that the Jurchen military horses, which were still struggling to resist the entanglement, had turned around and walked westward, and they really couldn't support it, and they were fighting in the hedgehogs, and when there was no array, they were suddenly attacked and killed by the reinforcements of the Southern Dynasty. All of them were heavy casualties.

The Yinke Department has already rushed over, at this time, hurry up and disengage and let Yinke operate, take a breather and sort it out, and then reflexively kill back!

The tide of Jurchen military horses generally retreated, but the smoke and dust in the west were getting closer and closer, and in the battlefield left behind, there were still one or two dozen armor soldiers covered in blood and scars. The helmet on his head was blood-red, and he stared blankly at the reinforcements who rushed in front of him.

Wang Gui rushed to the battlefield at this time. Seeing the tragic fighting, after fighting two or three battles with the Zahu and Jurchen infantry auxiliary troops in the front row, he was a little weak, and just after sweeping the three hundred Jurchen auxiliary army, he gritted his teeth and pointed obliquely in the direction of Shuozhou: "Rush to the city!" But there are obstacles, and they all step over! Relying on the city, let's go back and fight again! ”

Today, under the city of Shuozhou, this battle is already a considerable scale. From early in the morning, it has been fought until the afternoon, one side drove the people to fill the city, the other side rode through the formation, and reinforcements from both sides also arrived. Join the battlefield one at a time. The entanglement and scuffle have reached the point where it is becoming more and more intense. The main force of Zahu, which has always been the vanguard of the south, has collapsed.

But now those who are still fighting to the death on the battlefield are the elite forces of this era, even if they are all rushing to attack, even if they are all adding fuel to the battlefield, they are constantly joining the battlefield, even if they are quite tired, and there are more heavy casualties, but both sides are still shouting for a fierce battle, and there is no intention to quit the war group!

As the Yinkeshu side, it has lost the opportunity to conquer Shuozhou during the march, but it is also necessary to expel the reinforcements from the battlefield, force the city to go down, and firmly grasp such a starting point for the attack on Taiyuan Mansion.

Then there is still a chance to destroy the Jinyang army in one fell swoop, and if these Song reinforcements cannot be defeated and driven back, then the Song people rely on Taiyuan Mansion, which is only a few hundred miles away, as long as there is a few days of buffer time, they can set up a military village on the first line of Shuozhou, blocking this passage to death.

Even if the Jurchen follow-up army arrived and wanted to break through the Shuozhou defense line by attacking the fortifications, it would not be ten days and a half a month's work, and at that time, the Jinyang army in the north won the opportunity to adjust its strategic deployment to the south.

At that time, this great opportunity to lay the foundation of the battle in Hedong in one fell swoop, which was easy to win, is gone forever! At this time, both sides must be firmly nailed to this battlefield and defeat the other!

Yin Keshu now occupies the advantage, that is, the strength of the army, not to mention the Zahu light cavalry, has been declared collapsed, even if there are nearly half of the military horses lucky to survive, but can no longer exist as an army, but with him to the south of the Lou Chamber, there are still times rushed to the vanguard of the Pucha Wulie Division, there are seven Moke, even if they are not satisfied, the Jurchen iron cavalry also has 13400 numbers. There are also seven or eight hundred auxiliary troops such as Cangtou bullet press.

At this time, soldiers and horses can also be mobilized, while the Pucha Wulie Department and the auxiliary army are arrayed under the city to isolate the connection between the Song reinforcements and the city, and on the other hand, they can also lead 3,000 elite cavalry, as a mobile force to bite the Song people's military horses, and the follow-up Pucha Wulie's Jurchen Mouke, when they are still coming!

This is where the confidence of Yinkeshu lies in the end, and the cavalry of the Song army that went out of the city to raid at that time was a command, and the cavalry who came to help was also a commander, but Wang Gui's command was overnumbered, with a total of six hundred cavalry slightly insufficient, although the combat power was strong, not only brought heavy casualties to the Jurchen military horses, but also destroyed the Zahu military horses.

But Yang Zhi has almost been wiped out, although Niu Gao is fighting hard, but at this time, once he falls in, it is quite difficult to fight with the Jurchens, only Wang Gui's department is still rushing left and right on the battle formation, but for the Jinyang army, their advantage is that as long as they get in touch with Shuozhou City and can do a field battle situation according to the city, they are not afraid of anything.

And for the Jinyang army, they also firmly believe that the general Xiao Yang, who is personally sitting in Taiyuan, will also send them reinforcements endlessly, not to mention that the cavalry infantry led by Niu Gao is on the way to come!

Both sides have the same plan, before the other party's reinforcements arrive one after another, defeat the other party and expel them from the Shuozhou battlefield, both sides gritted their teeth and prepared to fight to the end, so this war is still developing towards a climax!

Hundreds of horsemen under Niu Gao's department, after slightly repelling the Jurchen military horses on the eastern flank, from the commander to the head of the capital to the team, were desperately shouting and reorganizing the formation, and the armor soldiers who had been reduced to more than 1,000 horsemen rotated ninety degrees, lined up in a formation with a narrow front and long depth, and before the cavalry that Yin Keshu was desperately rushing from the west did not arrive, he began to accelerate again, rushing towards Shuozhou City!

Each soldier was covered in blood and sweat, his horse's mane was wet with sweat, and his chest and abdomen rose and fell violently, but he still quickly completed the formation transformation. Ignoring the retreating Jurchen knights, they immediately opened their bows and arrows to harass, and this iron stream began to surge again.

In this world, it's not just you Jurchen Tartars who can wear heavy armor, a battle, and repeatedly rush to kill twenty rounds! And outside the range of the Shuozhou City bow and crossbow, the mixed Jurchen cavalry of the brigade was also desperately rushing to arrive, with a Jurchen command, the cangtou bullet pressure was violently panting and lined up in place, hundreds of Jurchen infantry troops squeezed me and collided, and took out the strength to put out a wide frontal array, blocking between the reinforcements of the Southern Dynasty and the city of Shuozhou.

And after these cangtou bullets overwhelmed the infantry army, the cavalry troops of the four Pucha Wulie Divisions of Mouke were also panting, and set up an array facing Shuozhou to prevent the defenders in Shuozhou City from suddenly opening the door and clashing.

If this array is broken by the Song army, needless to say, add another elite cavalry to the city, take the field situation of the city, and cooperate with the continuous reinforcements, the Jurchen army under the city of Shuozhou will no longer have to fight, only to retreat to the east, let the Song army control the battlefield, and then with the unique ability of the Han people to defend the army, set up a continuous military village, dig trenches, build various defense facilities, and turn the Shuozhou line into an impregnable Jintang city.

But if the Song army can't break through this array, it will be bitten by the iron cavalry led by Yin Keshu, but it will be beaten by the Jurchen army, and it will be wiped out under the city, and it will be impossible to fight again until dark. (To be continued.) )
