Wang Baobao instinctively wanted to run, because he knew that it would be difficult for his cavalry to break through the strict military formation of the Song army, not to mention that his own army was running from afar, the soldiers were extremely tired, and the combat strength could not last long, but at this time, he gave up Yanzhou, which was equivalent to giving up the land east of the canal to Hao Ren, and Wang Baobao was afraid that it would be difficult to have the strength to come back.

Wang Baobao's army, most of them are Richard's old troops, in the past when Richardan led the army, almost a hundred battles were won, and then claimed to eliminate a million Red Turban Army, Wang Baobao, the new commander of this army, after all, the area is too light, his reputation as long as Richard's shadow, if he retreats without a fight, it will inevitably cause Richard's old generals to despise, and it will be even more difficult for him to lead this army in the future.

He didn't want a second Hu Lin Chi to appear in his army, and someone else would pull men and horses to separate from his army.

What's more, the cavalry led by Wang Baobao is the grassland cavalry of the Eight Classics, Batu and others in the past, with the iron cavalry swept through Europe, the world is invincible, the Song army is difficult to shake, in Wang Baobao's view, the Song army just enclosed itself in the sheepfold, not really a good man, as long as a gap in the military formation is opened, the Song army is just a lamb driven by the grassland cavalry.

Hao Ren's choice of the decisive battle node was more scientific, and the Song army had already lined up the military array, forcing Wang Baobao to have a decisive battle with the Song army.

Since the Song army formation is invulnerable on all sides, he sent four troops and horses to besiege on all sides, as long as there is a flaw in the Song army's military formation, with the high mobility of the Mengyuan cavalry, it will concentrate the relatively superior forces in a very short period of time and dig out a gap in the military formation.

For a time, the trumpet artillery was repeated, the war horses were galloping, and the Mengyuan army killed four teams of cavalry in the formation, the cavalry rolled up high dust, and the four cavalry lines were clear, one army hit the front, the two armies attacked on the left and right, and a cavalry actually wanted to go around the back of the Song army.

Of course, Hao Ren deduced the enemy's combat intentions based on Wang Baobao's cavalry charging route.

If there is really a cavalry attacking the Song army from the rear, Wang Baobao wants to send troops and horses from the front to respond to the rear flank, and the army will bypass the left and right flanks of the Song army.

The front of the Song army was the closest to the enemy, and the enemy's charge was also the closest in a straight line, so the front was the first to engage the enemy.

The cavalry of the grassland was extremely brave, and the charge was as excited as going to a banquet, and the riders wielding sabers and spears leaned forward as much as possible, as if they wanted to rush in front of the Song army immediately, and with their flesh and blood, they rushed into the gap in the Song army's shield array, even if behind the gap, there was an endless abyss, and even painful disappointment, the riders were not afraid at all.

The cavalry rushed slowly, the impact momentum was strong, and in the blink of an eye, the brave steppe cavalry had rushed to within three hundred steps in front of the Song army.

"Boom!" With the sound of a trumpet, the front artillery of the Song army exploded one after another, accompanied by the billowing smoke of gunpowder, the entire army formation was filled with the smell of sulfur, which smelled good, and between the flames of the muzzle, the large lead bullets were like raindrops, and they poured into the enemy's cavalry formation.

The cavalry formation that shouted and charged was beaten out of the speckled gaps, the horses neighed, the flesh and blood flew sideways, and countless war horses fell to the ground with a bang, overturning the riders on the back of the horses, and the ice blades that fell by the missed hands flew stubbornly forward.

The brave steppe cavalry, braving the fierce artillery fire of the Song army, regardless of the huge casualties of men and horses, the momentum of the charge did not decrease at all, and continued to charge at the Song army's formation.

In the blink of an eye, the brave cavalry had rushed to a hundred paces in front of the Song army's formation, and in the Song army's formation, rows of musketeers ran out, and the musketeers put the butts of their guns on their shoulders and knelt on one knee.

"Bump", a gunshot rang out, and a musketeer finished firing, regardless of whether he hit the enemy or whether his comrades around him had finished firing, turned around and ran towards the military formation.

And a musketeer quickly flashed out behind him, just pulling the trigger, firing the musket and leaving!

After the three teams of musketeers finished firing in turn, the enemy's cavalry had already rushed to within 70 paces of the Song army's formation, but now less than half of the cavalry rushed to the front of the army's formation, and most of the remaining half were all wounded by firearms in the process of charging.

The steppe cavalry fought against the infantry of Middle-earth, and they always had to risk a certain amount of sacrifice, withstand the heavy crossbows and catapults of the infantry, and then rush to the front of the military formation, as long as they tore the hole in the infantry formation, the war was over.

The charging steppe cavalry, although suffering huge casualties, finally saw the hope of victory, seventy steps, enough to shoot the armor-piercing cone into the Song army's military formation.

"Collapse-" The riders controlled their bows on their horses, threw at the maximum elevation angle, and were ready to throw crossbow arrows at the Song army's military formation, and at this time, the Song army's military formation suddenly changed, and the gaps between the shields were all filled by the shields, and the shields were as flat as a city wall.

The charging riders did not directly ram into the shield, but divided the troops into two ways, left and right, and only threw bows and arrows at the sending army formation, which could not break through the Song army's army formation at all.

The artillerymen, musketeers, and crossbowmen of the Song army killed each other with the steppe cavalry across the shield wall, and a good crossbowman could actually punch the bow and arrow accurately into the shield, and wounded the musketeers of the Song army, but the Song army rushed out of the shot, and with more blows, the cavalry could not break through the shield, and the Song army could not immediately wipe out all the cavalry in front of the formation.

The steppe cavalry that charged head-on rushed to the front of the army formation, and the other three cavalry also launched an attack one after another, and the entire Song army was attacked on all sides.

It is not a good thing to be attacked on all sides, and once there is a problem on one side, it is likely to cause a rout in all aspects. The key is that Hao Ren only has one pair of eyes, he can't take care of all four sides on the battlefield, his attention at this time is only on his frontal enemy, as well as Wang Baobao's handsome flag in the military formation.

"Tell Yu Tonghe to go to the back and clear the enemy behind me!" Hao Ren ordered.

The Chinese army guards blew the horn, the flag waved, the back door of the Song army's military formation opened, and 10,000 cavalry, under the leadership of Yu Tonghe, the cavalry commander, rushed out with a shout.

The enemy's cavalry behind is not much, only about three or four thousand people, Yu Tonghe has experienced a hundred battles, and occupies an absolute advantage in numbers, not long after, half of the enemy was killed, and the rest of the cavalry retreated and fled.

Hao Ren didn't care about the thousands of cavalry, the Chinese army had already sounded the horn and summoned Yu Tonghe's army back!
