It is particularly accurate, that is, the galloping Mongolian light cavalry hit almost every shot at a distance of dozens of paces, and at every bowstring sound, a Song soldier fell screaming.

This is from childhood, tied to the back of a horse with a bow and arrows, every day in the steppe non-stop hunting tempered archery, this is the Mongolian survival of archery, if you can't shoot enough prey every day, you will starve. There is no motivation more than the desire to survive to hone one's combat skills. When the Mongolian cavalry, who had been repeatedly tortured by such rigorous training for more than ten years, appeared on the battlefield of the World Realm, they were invincible in that era.

When the first wave of arrows from the Song army was fired, the rest of the Mongol soldiers who did not participate in the assault fire also stopped their horses and switched to covering the shooting with longbows. Through the provocative actions of their companions, they have already estimated the distance covered by the opponent's bow and arrow. A rain of arrows rained down on the Song army. At the same time, the first wave of cavalry that had been deployed into a horizontal formation had retreated to the rear in two wings, and the subsequent second wave of cavalry did not leave any room for the Song army to counterattack, and launched a second round of cavalry suppression.

"No backwards!" Li Mingfu slashed down an archer who was fleeing with a knife, and shouted, "Shoot back with an arrow!" The Modao team is ready to charge! The archers stuck their dovetails in the ground, drew their bows and released arrows, unleashing a wave of arrows that returned fire.

The cavalry who rushed forward saw the oncoming feather arrows, and they turned their horses' heads and hung their bodies on their horses, and the brave ones lightly controlled the reins in their hands, and commanded their mounts to take a small step to the side, and the feathered arrows swept past one person and one horse, without causing any damage.

This is the most ornate battlefield dance on the battlefield of the thirteenth century. Not only were the crossbowmen of the Song army helpless against this, but the Eastern European crossbowmen at this moment, the Jin crossbowmen of the Jin Kingdom earlier, and the Turkic archers in Khorasan were all dodged by this horse-man-horse riding technique.

European historians even lamented: "How can a knight with such excellent riding skills not dominate the world?" ”

When the archers of the Song army finished releasing their arrows, the Mo swordsmen stretched out their Mo knives forward, roaring loudly and rushing towards the enemy cavalry dozens of paces away.

As soon as they charged, the Mongol cavalry began to retreat, running backwards while turning around on horseback to shoot, and heavy armor-piercing arrows flew out of the retreating cavalry one after another, continuing to kill and injure the Modao team who were bravely advancing.

Although the Mingguang armor is known to be indestructible, the best defense is the striker, and the defense of the bow and arrow is not good.

What's more, there is also the deadly weight of the Mingguang armor.

sprinted for a distance, not only did not get the opportunity to fight hand-to-hand, but a heavy armor and a heavy Mo knife made everyone sweat and panting.

The limit of physical fitness made it impossible to maintain the strict Modao formation, and some people began to fall behind, some people dragged to the back of the team, and some rushed too quickly to the front, all in all:

The ranks are out of order.

Suddenly, a long sound of hoops sounded from the north. The archers dodged their way. Hundreds of heavily armored cavalrymen with spears in their hands bowed their heads and charged towards the scattered Mo sword array.

In the steppes, the armor of the Mongols was not very good, and their armor was mostly made of strong, puncture-resistant multi-layered cowhide, and iron armor rarely appeared. The anti-arrow effect of cowhide armor is even better than that of paper armor, but when it comes to knives, guns, and strikers, neither of them is as good as iron armor.

However, with the victory of the southern and western expeditions, the Mongol army captured a large number of heavy armor from the Jin Kingdom and the Western Regions. In particular, the iron floating armor of the Jin Kingdom, known as the solidity of the iron tower, and the chain armor of the Western Regions, because of the origin of the iron, the quality of the iron is better, so the quality of the armor is also better.

At that time, the Mongolian heavy cavalry had become the strongest heavy cavalry in the world, whether it was the chain mail cavalry in Europe or the large-leaf armored heavy cavalry in the East, it could not be compared with the Mongolian heavy cavalry in terms of combat skills and equipment.

What's more, this team still has a will of steel.

More than 20 years ago, Mongolia had just been unified at that time, and it was the time of the second southward attack on Jin. The elite of the Jin Kingdom, who suffered a big loss last year, came out together to defend the dangerous Wild Fox Ridge with 300,000 elite soldiers in the world.

Genghis Khan did not want the Jin State to be so aggressive, and rashly led the army to attack Yehuling, but was stubbornly resisted by the Jin army, and the two sides fought dozens of vicious battles in the big and small passes of Yehuling, and the Mongols lost more than they won.

Just when the enemy was outnumbered, the enemy occupied a favorable terrain, and a slight retreat of half a step would threaten to annihilate the entire army, the Mongolian left head of the 10,000 households Mu Huali stood up.

He said to his subordinates: "Now there is no advance or retreat, there is still a way to survive desperately, and half a step back can only mean death!" It's the warriors of the Great Khan who rush with me! Saying that, he rode his horse with a spear, and rushed straight into the Jin army formation of Yehuling, and hundreds of heavy armored cavalry of his subordinates also broke into the pass together, and under the crazy melee assault of the Mongolian cavalry, the Jin Iron Cavalry, which had swept the Central Plains with intensive assault tactics, was finally frightened. They abandoned the Wild Fox Ridge Pass and fled all the way to the pass. However, Genghis Khan Temujin led the crowd to chase closely, and finally the 300,000 army was lost in a battle, laying the final outcome of the defeat of the Jin State.

It also established the reputation of Mongolian iron cavalry invincible in the world.

When these heavy knights in armor rushed towards the Song Junmo sword formation on the opposite side, the undefeated experience of more than twenty years had already imprinted their spirits on them. The strength of this imprint gives each heavily armored soldier high morale and absolute self-confidence, which is enough to cope with all kinds of difficult and difficult circumstances, and all kinds of enemies.

And when they faced the Modao team, whose formation was already chaotic, the powerful impact force almost instantly shattered this Tang-style elite force that the citizens of Jiangling had spent money on equipment and training.

The sound of spears piercing heavy armor, the sound of long knives cutting through armor leaves, the sound of Mo knives being smashed by horses' hooves, and the screams of Song soldiers mixed together, and reached the ears of spearmen and archers in the rear.

The scene of almost resistance being annihilated at the front was a devastating blow in the eyes of every soldier. The destruction of the will to fight for the rest of the people is even more deadly.

The spearmen abandoned their elongated spears, and the archers threw away their bows and arrows, starting with one or two, and then fear spread like a contagion to the whole army, and everyone began to run desperately towards Shatou City, as long as they ran this way, they had a chance to survive. Their goal now is simply to survive.

"Don't run away!" "Don't run away!" Li Mingfu shouted angrily, once the fantasy of relying on retro weapons and tactics to resist the Tatar whirlwind was shattered by reality, his only way was to kill the deserters, but even killing a few deserters could not prevent the fact that the whole army had actually collapsed.

And when he turned to face forward, the Mongolian heavy cavalry who had already crushed the Modao team were rushing towards him with a momentum that shook the heavens and the earth.

The last scene he saw before his death was that of a samurai wearing a Mongolian helmet with black feather armor and slashing down the bright scimitar head-on.

The officers and soldiers of the earth dragon on the city wall all felt a chill in their hearts when they watched the living friendly troops being trampled into smoke and dust by the enemy like a ball of dirt.

"This is the power of the Mongols," Zheng Yunming silently read in his heart, "This is the meaning of being invincible in the world." ”

He shouted: "Don't be stunned, shake your spirits!" Now it's our turn! ”——

Sun Jia, the officer of the first team of the firearms team, had already lined up in front of the wall with twenty bamboo generals, and saw that the enemy cavalry had no intention of stopping after ravaging the troops out of the city, and rushed directly towards Dazhai. Although he used to be a capable Tabai envoy under Meng Hui, he was also impetuous, and he ordered: "Take off the oilcloth and prepare to fire!" ”

The word "fire" is exactly the password for firing firearms set by Zheng Yunming himself.

"In the future, whether it is iron artillery, fire thistle or bamboo general." Zheng Yunming said: "Use this password to launch!" ”

In fact, in the Song army, no, even in the Tulong army, the only firearms that can be "fired" are these bamboo generals, and they are weapons that have never appeared in history to use gunpowder to push out bullets for killing. Other firearms are mostly used for explosive throwing, or arson-like spraying.

However, Zheng Yunming knew that in the future, there will be more and more firearms that will be used to "fire" for "firing," and there will be enough to reverse the general trend of history.

But at this time, he immediately shouted: "Wait a minute! No fire! ”

When everyone heard the commander's order, they all stopped their movements and waited for the next instructions.

The Mongol cavalry roared towards the north gate in a volley, and the mixture of people and horses neighed formed a powerful requiem, and the people in the city were all shocked when they heard it. The children were even more panicked and cried.

The cavalry lined up in a neat formation a mile away, and a general in black armor jumped out of the ranks, galloped to a distance of dozens of steps in front of the north gate, and threw the bloody head in his hand to the ground, stirring up a puff of smoke and dust.

It was vaguely recognizable in the smoke and dust, it was the head of Li Ming's re-administration who was full of confidence not long ago.

"The bravest warrior of the Mongol Great Khan!" The general shouted in stiff Chinese, and his voice was rough and heavy: "King Tath orders!" Open the Walled City now! Go out and surrender! ”

"Those who dare to send an arrow to our army, break the stockade, and leave no chickens and dogs!"

Zheng Yunming stood up, and the flag erected behind him rolled in the wind.

"That's what you told him." He said to the interpreter beside him: "Zheng Yunming, the chief manager of the Jinghu System Envoy Sizhi Yingtian, replied!" ”

The interpreter shouted loudly in Mongolian to the gatekeepers.

"Fuck off!" Zheng Yunming said loudly.

The interpreter was taken aback and turned his head to look at Zheng Yunming.

"Translate as it is." Zheng Yunming said calmly: "Don't let people wait in a hurry. ”

The interpreter laughed miserably and scolded loudly to the city.

The black-armored general roared angrily and urged his horse to whip back to his main formation.
