Chapter 193: Confrontation

Internal worries are often accompanied by external troubles, and everyone sees the essence of the Great Song Dynasty clearly, and the Western Xia, who has just served for a few years, jumped up, first refused to pay the New Year's coin to the Great Song Dynasty, and then plunged into the arms of the Jurchens. Of course, the Jurchens knew that they needed to give a bone to eat at this time, so they generously withdrew troops from Tiande and Yunnei Prefecture and gave them the two states, as for the promised Wuzhou, it was still in the hands of the Khitans, so go and get it yourself!

Since the founding of the country, the Tangut people have dreamed of pushing their forces to the other side of the Yellow River, and the Hetao area has also made them salivate for many years. There are not many pies falling from the sky, and the Western Xia is naturally ecstatic, as for what the Song and Jin countries are like, it has nothing to do with them now, and it is true to make a fortune in a muffled voice.

The Tangut people are accustomed to being slaves, that is, a standard three-surname domestic slave, and now they have become vassals of the emerging Jurchen regime, and they have committed the mistake of remembering what to eat and not remembering, where do you still remember Zhao Ta's warning, after the southern invasion of the Jin State began, let go of their hands and feet, crossed the river to participate in the war, attacked the city and plundered the land, and incorporated all the land promised by Clay Han into their own territory. Knowing that the main force of the Kryu army stationed in Shuozhou was all transferred to Yingzhou to deal with the invasion of the Jurchens, he eagerly stretched out his hand to Wuzhou...

At first, Zhao Ta's plan was to drag the main force of the Jin army south, give Hedong a chance to prepare for the war and win time and turn the tables, and he dragged Zong Hanfei's thin and thin ones to death in Yingzhou, consuming their troops, and finally making them unable to invade south. But the mud is the mud that can never be pasted on the wall, and he can only attack in advance, the greatest annihilation of the Jurchens' vital power, weakening their strength...

The battle between the two armies continued, although the Jin army was several times larger than the 'ragtag army' led by Zhao Tan, but the soldiers were noble. And not more. His essence lies not in the number of people, but in the effective equipment and quality of the army. Therefore, although the army in Zhao Ta's hands was small, it still made the Jin army lose its temper.

After breaking the front army of the Jin army. Zhao Yong changed the formation again, reorganized the various armies, and used the wolf to capture the commanding heights of the river bay and the river valley, protect the two flanks of the attacking troops, and prevent the Jin army from attacking from the flank. And the dragoons were formed into three horizontal columns to join the attack, and some of the hussars were replaced and let them regroup to rest in order to fight again!

Wanyan was defeated and suffered heavy losses, and he could only gather the remnants of the army and retreat to the rear army. Wanyan Saili took over the offensive position, and he had just hurriedly arranged the crossbow army to shoot at the position. Zhao Yong had already commanded the platoon to march forward through the gap between the three light cavalry in the rear. Hand machine guns and bead guns mounted on light carriages were used to fire at the Jin army in turn.

The crossbow army in the front row of the Jin army suddenly became the target of the first round of strikes, they were originally going to use bows and crossbows to block the attacking enemy, but they did not expect that the guys in their hands were not as good as people, and the shields in front of them, whether they were large shields made of two-inch thick planks, or round shields covered with animal skins and iron sheets, could not stop the raining projectiles, and they were knocked down in pieces.

The crossbowmen had to retreat under the heavy blows, and their retreat disrupted the cavalry that had not yet finished the formation, and the formation wavered. The opportunity could not be missed, and Zhao Yong immediately ordered to rush forward. The dragoons collected their guns and drew their swords, and charged against the stone wall to kill the 10,000-strong team in the Wanyan Race. The most fearful thing about the impact of the cavalry is that it will not be able to form an effective defensive formation, and Wanyan Saili will kill several soldiers in a row to try to stop the rout of the infantry in front of him, how many people may remain calm in the face of the roaring iron cavalry?

The scattered crossbow army disrupted the cavalry behind them and made them lose their speed. The impact of the dragoon fell into chaos, but it also caused the dragoon to fall into a melee. Zhang Pu, the commander of the second brigade, seized the fighter plane and personally led the two battalions of cavalry to fight a bloody way in the chaotic army, and after coming out of the formation, he made a detour to the left flank of the Jin army. The intention was to isolate them from the Jin Army brigade.

At this time, the king of the heavens, Wanyan Saili, was under the continuous assault of the enemy army, and called Tiantian. He watched his army being divided and surrounded by the enemy. Annihilation but helpless, he can no longer effectively control the troops, can only collect the defeated troops around him, while struggling to get closer to the Chinese army, to avoid being entrapped by the enemy cavalry.

Two 10,000 troops were defeated in a row, and Zong Han urgently ordered the five divisions of Yeluma to attack and rescue the Seri division. Zhao Yong saw that another 10,000-strong team of the Jin army joined the battle group, while only four dragoon battalions were put into battle, and now they were mixed with the enemy, and if they were surrounded by the enemy, they would definitely suffer, and he also ordered them to retreat.

Zhang Pu heard the call to retreat, looked up to the south, at this time the sky was already dark, only to see the Chinese army holding the cart crane rose red and yellow lanterns, confirmed that it was ordered to withdraw from the right flank of the main formation, gathered the teams to withdraw according to the instructions, jumped out of the encirclement of the five divisions of Yeluma.

Yelu Ma Wuyuan was a general of the Liao army, and he was also a fierce general after repeatedly making military exploits after the gold reduction, and he had already seen that the enemy army on the opposite side relied on sharp firearms, and only by mixing with them and fighting with them to make them throw a mouse bogey could they hope to win again, but the enemy army saw through his intentions and quickly got rid of his encirclement. He led the army forward, hoping to take advantage of his retreat and avoid the blow of firearms.

But when he rushed to the front of the formation, he did not dare to chase after him, only to see that the enemy troops who had just withdrawn from the battle, even in the retreat, still maintained a strict formation, advanced and retreated in moderation, and returned to their own position from the right flank under the cover of the rangers, while the two columns of heavy cavalry had slowly stepped forward, intending to attack themselves. The speed of the transition between attack and defense was much faster than Yelu Ma Wu expected, and where did he dare to engage in battle, he hurriedly ordered to retreat and widen the distance from the enemy, after withdrawing from their firepower.

Looking at the other party's strict formation and calm scheduling, Yeluma felt mixed tastes, bitter and sweet sour, and he couldn't tell whether he was happy or painful. Secretly sighed that if the Khitan had such a strong army a few years ago, why would he be a pawn of others, and use the blood of his own people to exchange land and wealth for foreign races. It is gratifying that there are successors of the Khitan Yelu clan, and the princess of Shu and several princes may really be able to prosper the Great Liao, so that the Khitan people will not have no foothold...

The frontal attack of the Jin army was crushed, and they were powerless to retreat, and the strange army used to turn the tables was also in a bitter battle at this moment.

Since it can be called a slope, it means that the mountain is relatively gentle, you can ride a horse to go up, after pulling out the speed to get the order to attack, the high-spirited leader rushed to the top of the white fox slope, only to feel that the eyes are bright, the golden light is everywhere, the afterglow of the setting sun is shining on their faces, pulling away from the speed of the heart is a little unhappy, secretly scolding Zong Han is to find fault, because they want to attack against the sun, the line of sight will be disturbed, the arrow can not be aimed at the target, the fight will be disturbed by the sun, this has always been a taboo for soldiers.

But when the mood of pulling away quickly improved, he put his hand on the monkey's pergola to look down the mountain, only to see that there were few people on the empty battlefield, and not far from the battlefield is the enemy camp, although the flag is unfurled, but there are only a few sentries on the wall, obviously after the battle their own defeat, the enemy army raised the whole army to pursue, leaving a good opportunity to himself.

"Rush!" Pulling out the speed of the excitement of the long knife, two thousand volts rushed down from the mountain, the momentum is like a rainbow, like a torrent pouring down from the mountain, can be described as menacing, its momentum is unstoppable. But they didn't know that the treatment they enjoyed was much higher than that of other departments, and what served them was the Guards Brigade known as the First Brigade of the Loyal and Brave Army, and the personal guards of Prince Song Yan!

"Kill..."When the detachment rate army rushed down the hillside, adjusted the formation and discharged the column to prepare to steal the rear of the enemy army, suddenly a cavalry appeared on their left flank, shouting that the horse rushed towards them.

"The front army turned to the left to meet the enemy!" The pull-out quickly ordered the front army to turn around to meet the enemy, but he secretly shouted in his heart, who is the damn ambush of whom? And this enemy army appeared at the right time, they did not choose to meet when they went down the mountain, but they attacked when their whole team was advancing, not only avoided the edge, but also caused difficulties for themselves to meet the battle, if you want to deal with them, you must turn, but then you lose the meaning of ambush, fortunately, the number of intercepted enemies is not much, and you can still deal with it.

If they had accelerated their escape at this time, they might have been able to escape the blow, but they had chosen to turn around and meet the enemy with the large number of people, wanting to encircle them with the Glaive Formation and eat this ambush that had ruined their own good deeds...

After Shang Hu and Lin Shuo left the camp, they lay in wait in a depression outside the camp, because they didn't know whether the target of the ambush attack of the enemy army in the road was the big camp or the attack on the Krup army in the big battle. If they make a mistake in judgment and let them rush into the camp, so that the prince is frightened, he will have to commit suicide and apologize for his guilt without being told by others, and hiding here will be able to take care of both sides, and he will be able to react quickly no matter which direction the enemy attacks.

The Guards Brigade is fighting in two field brigades, plus special combat teams, which are at a disadvantage in numbers, but they are all elites selected from more than 40,000 people in the Kryu Army, each of whom is a warrior with one as ten, not only has rich combat experience, but also immediately works hard to achieve first-class, and these two thousand people really don't pay attention to it. But because of the responsibility, there are few opportunities to go to the battlefield, this time I can seize the opportunity, how can I not have a good time!

Shang Hu and Lin Shuo were bold and daring, and they also wanted to sharpen their team, so they gave up the traditional defensive and counterattack tactics of the loyal warriors, and adopted a hard-fought attack as soon as they came up. But that didn't mean giving up their advantage, and they lined up their front lines and attacked from behind. The quality of the special combat team is the highest, but what they are best at is doing small movements, not group combat, so they do not participate in the charge, but cruise around the perimeter as a surprise army to capture fighters.

As soon as they entered the range of the guns, the guns rang out, and the soldiers of the Jin Army, who were bending their bows and arrows to meet the attackers, fell off their horses one after another, causing a burst of confusion, but before they could assemble again, the attackers were already holding their sabers high and crashing into them!
