Chapter 456: The Decisive Battle Three
readx;
Chen Yuan suddenly turned his head and looked at the mountain meeting the floating light, and the mountain met the floating light, and his eyes were very sincere: "Uncle Shan meets Weiliang, and the relationship with the Song Dynasty has always been very good, but he opposed Li Yuanhao and the Song Dynasty to start a war and was killed by Li Yuanhao."

Chen Yuan walked up to him: "Since your uncle had a good relationship with the Song Dynasty and was killed by Li Yuanhao, why did you still help Li Yuanhao?" ”
The corners of Shan Yufuguang's mouth moved twice: "My uncle strongly opposed it after knowing that Li Yuanhao was going to attack, thinking that this was a party disaster." So he escaped from the party and reported to the Song Dynasty. As a result, Fan Yong, the guard on the border of the Song Dynasty, not only listened to my uncle's advice, but also tied him back and gave him to Li Yuanhao. ”
Shan Yu Fuguang said that he was a little excited here, Chen Yuan looked at Liu Ping, Liu Ping nodded and said: "There is such a thing, after Shan Yu Weiliang was sent back to the party, the whole family was killed by Li Yuanhao. ”
Chen Yuan read in his mouth: "Fan Yong should be killed!" ”
Then he raised his head sharply: "Liu Ping, do you believe what he said?" ”
Liu Ping looked at the mountain standing in front of him, and suddenly nodded: "I believe it." ”
Chen Yuan smiled: "I also believe that if I know when Li Yuanhao will come, then this battle will be much easier." ”
Liu Ping also increased his confidence: "Don't worry, don't worry, let that Li Yuanhao be planted in our hands this time!" ”
The road from Jingsai Junsi to Xingzhou City is sandwiched between the river and the desert, and there is only a narrow passage to walk, which is a flat river, which is very suitable for cavalry operations.
When the soldiers who were put back by Chen Yuan met Li Yuanhao and told him that the Jingsai Military Division had been lost, Li Yuanhao was really a little panicked. What he was most afraid of was that Chen Yuan was waiting for him at the Jingsai Military Division. The terrain there is really dangerous, and it will be a real trouble if the Song army holds it.
At the moment, he hurriedly urged the party soldiers to speed up, hoping to get there before the Song army completed the defensive deployment of the Jingsai Military Division!
When Li Yuanhao passed through the northern part of Mingsha, he saw the banner of the Song army, he was stunned for a moment, he didn't expect that the Song army gave up the positional warfare they were best at, and actually ran to this flat and unsafe wilderness.
Li Yuanhao's heart was suddenly overjoyed, no matter what the reason for the Song army to come, he didn't believe that this 10,000 Song army could block the attack of his 20,000 cavalry in the wild!
Especially behind those Song troops, the supply of the car captain was in a row, which made Li Yuanhao drool, this battle killed the Song army and grabbed these materials, then everything was solved!
The first to see the party was Yang Qing's team, Yang Qing's new official took office, and he was very excited that he could be the first to contact the other party! I vaguely saw the battle flag of the party members, and before I had time to judge the opponent's formation, I saw about three or four thousand party cavalry in front, and they were not prepared at all.
"It's coming so fast!" Yang Qing frowned, he knew that when the infantry and cavalry encountered, the formation of the infantry was relatively much more important!
When Li Yuanhao gave up rectifying the formation of the party members, he just wanted to catch the Song army by surprise, and once he could not hold on to the first line of defense, then it would be difficult for the army behind him to fight.
"Yan Zhan, send five hundred men and horses out of the ranks! Give me time to hold off the enemy's charge, and hold on to at least one stick of incense! Yan Zhan was stunned for a moment: "Is it just five hundred?" ”
Yang Qing nodded: "It's five hundred!" Remember, you must withstand the first wave of enemy attacks, and only by withstanding the first wave of enemy attacks can I set up my crossbow and trebuchet! ”
Yan Zhan nodded: "Cheng, look at me!" ”
The five hundred men immediately formed a long formation, and the snow hook and sickle spears were stretched out in front, waiting for the party cavalry to collide.
Li Yuanhao's vanguard is his general Wu Anze, he can see clearly, although the Song army has set up a formation, but the soldiers behind this formation are still mobilizing, not fully ready, if he can break through the defense of these five hundred people and rush into the Song army's large array, then the king's army can follow and kill and start a melee with the Song army.
On the plains, cavalry against infantry, 20,000 against 10,000, the results of the melee can be imagined.
When he was excited, he suddenly saw a group of Song Dynasty cavalry rushing diagonally from the flank in front. There were about four hundred people, and the leader was not very old, with a spear in his hand, and his eyes were staring at him like wolves!
The timing of this Song cavalry attack is very good, if you rush forward desperately, then the real team may be cut off by the Song people!
Wu Anze didn't dare to be careless, and glanced at one of the most courageous party warriors under his command: "Go!" I'll give you five hundred men and kill them!" ”
The party guy looked very vicious, staring at the direction Yang Wenguang was rushing from, and laughed: "Look at me!" ”
His weapon was a huge axe, weighing a hundred and ten pounds, to say the least! This thing is on the battlefield, not to mention blocking it, even if you see it, you can scare the opponent half to death. The guy carried an axe and rode towards Yang Wenguang, and when the two horses were wrong, they cut off their heads, and the momentum was extremely fierce!
Yang Wenguang sneered, his whole body fell on the horse's back, did not avoid it, and the spear in his hand pierced the man's lower abdomen as fast as lightning!
The weapon is heavy, and the opponent can't hold it at all, but it's not so easy to take it back, but the party can send and receive it freely, and the huge axe can be adjusted back when it turns around, and it deviates slightly, and it slashes down at Yang Wenguang's back.
Yang Wenguang shouted: "Die!" ”
After all, his spear was one step faster, not only piercing the guy's waist with a shot, but also taking advantage of the situation, and suddenly, flesh and blood flew sideways, picking the opponent in two.
As soon as they clashed, they lost their generals, and the party members who didn't have much military heart were suddenly a little overwhelmed, and those who originally came to intercept Yang Wenguang's 400 personal soldiers didn't know whether they should rush over or retreat.
Yang Wenguang saw that there was an opportunity to take advantage of it, and immediately shouted: "Brothers! Make a first contribution with me! ”
These 400 cavalry are all the Yang family's own soldiers, and they have been tempered thousands of times on the battlefield! One by one, like that fierce tiger, they instantly cut into the military formation of the army without Anze!
Yang Qing knew that he was too worried, and it turned out that Shangguan had already made arrangements. However, for a pioneer, emergency is a must to do. Even if Yang Wenguang disrupted the first wave of attacks by the party members, Yan Zhan still couldn't withdraw until he was completely ready.
As there were more and more enemies behind him, Yang Wenguang felt that the pressure on him was getting bigger and bigger. Liu Ping said clearly, as long as he disrupted the opponent's first wave of attacks, it was enough, and now it seems that the results should be about the same, right?
He never expected that with his cavalry, he could directly defeat Li Yuanhao's 20,000 cavalry. At the moment, he abandoned his opponent, and suddenly turned his horse's head: "Withdraw!" ”
A group of Yang family cavalry fought a bloody way and rushed out from the flank.
Wu Anze was very annoyed, and when he was about to pursue, Yang Qing's army formation had been set up, and countless crossbow arrows rushed over, cutting off the path of the party's pursuit.
Without Anze, he could only watch Yang Wenguang go away!
Looking at the formation of the Song army in front of him, Wei Anze raised the spear in his hand: "Warriors! Rush with me! ”
He knew that the more time he gave the Song army, the more difficult the opponent's formation would be, and if he really let the Song army shrink into a hedgehog, then even if the battle was won, the party members would inevitably have to bear a great price!
His troops continued to advance, and although the party members who came from behind made him suffer a round of preemptive blows from Yang Wenguang, they increased a lot in numbers.
Nearly 4,000 people rushed towards Yang Qing's phalanx, but Yang Qing did not panic at all, and waved the command flag in his hand: "Crossbow!" ”
The crossbow in Song Jun's hand shot extremely fast, and the range was slightly farther than the bow and arrow of the Dangxiang people, and the distance of these dozens of steps became the death zone of the Dangxiang people!
When the first wave of crossbows fired by the Song army, they were still in a low gear, and the very experienced party members shrank their bodies next to the horse's body and raised their shields to protect the horse's head.
Only a few dozen horsemen were shot to the ground. Most people turned on their horses after the attack.
According to their thoughts, there was still a time for the Song army to put on their crossbow arrows after the first wave of shooting, and this time would allow them to look up and see the situation ahead.
But they didn't know that the crossbow arrows that Zeng Gongliang researched this time were very convenient to use, as long as the soldiers pulled the bowstring back, the crossbow arrows could be automatically improved.
So when the party members stretched out their heads, the second wave of crossbow arrows caused them great casualties! The hundreds of cavalry who rushed to the front suddenly turned on their backs.
I didn't have an An Ze who was shocked, but now I can't go back, Suo surnamed was ruthless, and the spear pointed at the Song army's formation again: "Rush!" ”
After paying the price of thousands of men, they finally rushed to the range of their bows and arrows, and the archers of those party began to release arrows, and soldiers in the Song army formation were constantly shot to the ground.
At this time, the booklet compiled by Chen Yuan played a great role, and many soldiers who went to the battlefield for the first time subconsciously followed the methods mentioned in the booklet when they were a little panicked!
When the enemy starts shooting arrows, don't panic, the comrades in the back should quickly fill in the position of the fallen teammate in front of them, and remove the corpses and wounded at the same time!
This method has been used in the Song Dynasty for a long time, and it can be said that it existed in the Han Dynasty. But at that time, it was the generals who knew about the method, and those generals would tell the soldiers on the battlefield.
The effect of this was obviously not as good as it is now, because if the soldiers were too nervous, and with the sound of various shouts on the battlefield, they could not hear what the general was saying.
Now they repeat the instructions in the pamphlet, which not only saves the general a lot of trouble, but also greatly increases the opponent's casualties, and they are never able to shoot away from the Song army's formation.
"Whew! Call! ”
The trebuchet was also launched, and the lighted palms flew forward and landed in front of the party's horse. The party cavalry knew about this thing, and their faces suddenly changed!
The last time I was in Huiyancheng, the Song army used these, but that time was far from flying like now!
I didn't take it seriously, until the palm thunder exploded one by one, like brilliant flowers blooming on the earth.
The party cavalry that had just rushed into the land of a stone's throw was all blown up! The moaning of the centaur echoed throughout the battlefield.
Without An Ze's heart trembling, his hands began to tremble!
I finally got up with it, but I was beaten back by my opponent so easily, do you still have to fight this battle?
If you don't have to fight, you have to fight! His loyalty to Li Yuanhao made him raise his spear again: "Brothers! Rush up! ”
But this time, the remaining party members around him were terrified, and no one dared to rush anymore. Wu Anze glanced at it, his expression was a little sad, and finally his legs clamped the horse's belly: "Rush!" ”
With the general taking the lead, the morale of the soldiers was boosted to a certain extent, and they rushed to the Song army formation one by one behind Wu Anze!
A team of crossbowmen had already put the crossbows, and the leader of the team saw that there was no Anze, and concluded that this person was a senior official of the party, so he immediately adjusted the direction of the crossbows: "Brothers, don't move, watch me shoot this guy down!" I said launch and you will shoot again, do you know? ”
The soldier with a sledgehammer nodded: "Don't worry, listen!" ”
The captain looked at Wu Anze while adjusting, and when he was sure that it was almost there, he shouted: "Shoot!" ”
The hammer struck on the trigger, and the huge crossbow bolts rushed to the side at a rapid speed, and without Anze, he didn't even have time to dodge, and even the men and horses were shot to the ground.
The thick bolt shot through the horse's belly, piercing the horse's body, and then through Anze's chest. He lay on the ground, looked at the blue sky above his head, and looked at the giant crossbow inserted into his chest, and a sentence squirmed out of his mouth: "Your Majesty, the last general can't fight with you......"
