When the two armies fought fiercely until the night, the Jin army could not resist the offensive and began to retreat, Zhao Yong waved his army to pursue, and the Jin army was broken off after the Wan Yan Lou room lit the camp to block the enemy before he was able to get out, and the Jin army retreated thirty miles overnight to Baishuikou Xiazhai. At the beginning of the end of the war, the tripartite alliance of the loyal army, the Kryu army, and the Xijing Liao army under the command of Zhao Ta annihilated more than 13,000 enemies at the cost of 700 casualties, captured more than 2,000 enemies, captured more than 4,000 horses, and countless armor and weapons, and won the victory of the battle, which was known as the 'Yingzhou Victory' in history, but this incident was not widely known until a few months later.

The Jin Army's Wanyan Tuhe Speed Department was devastated, Wanyan Saili and Yelu Ma Wu were severely damaged, Wanyan Bali was captured by the head of the Speed Department, only more than ten of the 2,000 volt soldiers fled back in the night, and only Wanyan Lou's room suffered a slight loss of the 50,000 people. Because of the hasty retreat, the army had to set fire to the camp to block the enemy's pursuit, and almost all the heavy grain and grass were turned into ashes, so they had to temporarily stop the attack, while building a fortress to defend, while sending people to Tokyo to ask for reinforcements and grain and grass, it was impossible to launch a large-scale battle in a short time...

For the victory of the battle, Zhao Ta was not surprised, but once again verified his 'foresight' and the correctness of the strategy, hot weapons will eventually eliminate cold weapons, and strict discipline will surely defeat personal bravery.

Horseback peoples are inherently gifted by their superb horsemanship and martial arts, but their archery could not pose any threat to the musket-wielding coalition cavalry, and they were confronted with machine guns, rapid-fire cannons, and bead guns, and fearless charges against the rain curtain of steel and fire had become suicidal.

In skirmishes, individual bravery is important, but the larger the battle. Collective discipline becomes more dominant. The soldiers of the Jin Army often engaged in rapid horseback melee with no formation at all, and the irregular cavalry mainly required individual skill. They are not specifically trained for synergy. The riders could not maintain a highly rigid formation when running, and it was impossible to execute a neat line charge under a unified command. Even the iron floats had to be connected with pisos in order to ensure that they could keep in lockstep.

On the other hand, the cavalry team trained by Zhao Ta, whether it was a heavily armed hussar or a lightly armed dragoon, grew up under strict discipline. In the dense ranks of these cavalrymen, discipline reigned supreme, individual horsemanship was no longer important, and a single rider did not need to pull the reins, and his teammates' horses on either side of him would carry him forward. This way each cavalryman could free up two hands to fight, one with a sword. One hand with a pistol.

For example, the cavalry queue marching on the wall did not need to be too high, which would disrupt the formation and affect the impact force, so they began to use a neat jogging charge. After several major wars and years of harsh and scientific training, the quality of the cavalry of Zhao Ta's various units has been honed higher and higher in training and war, reaching an unprecedented height.

Now they didn't even need to keep their formation coherent by jogging all the time, as the cavalry had done before, but began to gallop their horses as they gradually accelerated to the enemy's 100 paces away, and still maintained their formation. Form a "galloping cavalry wall". The dragon generals of the loyal army, with veterans as the main body, have increased the distance from 100 steps in the past to 200 steps, and even increased to 300 steps at the end.

In the face of the "iron wall" line charge, the traditional cavalry scattered formations even had stronger individual martial arts and armor protection. Neither heavily armored melee nor lightly armed cavalry could compete with the neat and dense ranks of Western regular cavalry in frontal battle formations. It could only be overturned by those who rushed instantly, and the free charge of the Jin army could no longer oppose the disciplined coalition cavalry.

The biggest advantage of Zhao's army was that the cavalry units of other countries and regions were still training their command with experience and intuition. Through continuous summing up and study, they have developed a systematic cavalry drill code, so that the cavalry can adopt the most appropriate formation and impact mode at the most appropriate time.

So in the battle, even if Zhao Ta is not in the front line command. Generals at all levels can always ensure that they seize the opportunity to charge better, and strive to storm the flank of the enemy cavalry or the enemy cavalry in a stationary position; It can always ensure that the charge is more dense and neat, and it often knocks all kinds of traditional cavalry into pieces at one time, and the army is not formed. This battle is enough to prove that the scientific training and tactical guidance of the regular cavalry finally triumphed over the traditional experience and talent.

Another highlight of this time is that Zhao Ta began to try the combined use of infantry, artillery and cavalry, this kind of infantry as the root, cavalry as the dry, artillery as the leaf of the tactics, in the defense than in the past simply dragoon as infantry use, not only make the formation more stable, and in the defensive counterattack can make the dragoon play more role, and the combination of artillery in the fight against discipline and poor organization of the nomadic cavalry effect is the most obvious, through the powerful firepower can make the opponent fall into chaos first, and then their own cavalry then take the opportunity to rush to kill, Tend to achieve greater results!

"Where's the prince?" When Zhao Yong led the team back to the camp in triumph, the sky had already brightened, and when he walked to the front of the camp, he saw Shang Hu and the others directing the captives to dig a pit and bury the corpses, he stepped forward and asked softly.

"I don't know, when we came out, he was in the medical team to help take care of the wounded!" Shang Hu replied.

"How do you get the prince to do these things?" Zhao Yong frowned and said dissatisfiedly.

"You all go forward, and we are left with the guards brigade to watch the house, but we still have to deal with the attack of the Jurchens, and there are only the prince's internal guards and the baggage battalion's medical team left in the camp, who will carry so many wounded?" Shang Hu glanced at Zhao Yong and said.

"Where's Xiye? He doesn't persuade either! Zhao Yong smiled embarrassedly and said, this time it was indeed a little ill-conceived, and let the prince show him the house.

"Hey?! He asked the prince to send him to cook and boil water for you, I asked the prince to blast out and bury the dead, Lin Shuo guarded the camp, and Erwa became a scout, and our guard brigade has become your baggage team! Shang Hu pouted and said.

"Hehe, you have worked hard, are the Jurchen ambushes coming?" Zhao Yong smiled awkwardly, but seeing that Shang Hu and the others didn't look like they had fought a battle, he was a little skeptical that the scout was a false alarm.

"Here, the two thousand-strong teams are hiding behind the White Fox Slope as judged by the prince, and they want to attack your flanks during the battle!" Shang Hu said to the white fox Po Nunu.

"You're cleaning them up?" Zhao Yong exclaimed that they were not harassed by the ambush soldiers, and the only explanation was that the Guards Brigade did the work for them.

"Cut, why are you opening your mouth so wide, you don't believe us!" Shang Hu smiled and said, "Our two brigades solved the battle in less than an hour against their two thousand-man teams, and we also captured the leading captain alive!" ”

"The prince wasn't frightened, right? Do you have heavy casualties? Zhao Yong asked anxiously.

"The prince is nothing, and he slept for a while, but he scared Xiye enough, and you will be scolded when you go back. We've wounded a dozen or so brothers, and we've not died, so we've saved you a pension! Shang Hu looked at Zhao Yong's appearance and held back a smile.

"It's good that the prince doesn't have anything to do, just take a few sentences of scolding!" Zhao Yong said curtly, these few of them have all sat down and fallen ill, after so many years, they have all become tens of thousands of generals in the two armies, but they are still worried about seeing Xi, afraid of listening to him scolding people with a sharp voice.

"However, I see that the prince has not been in a good mood in the past two days, and he is depressed, you quickly let the prince persuade the prince to see if something happened!" Shang Hu said with a look that you should understand...

Zhao Yong returned to the camp, each brigade has returned to the camp, patrolling the camp, guarding, counting the results of the battle and those trivial matters have their own subordinates to worry about, he went to the medical team to find the prince turned around but did not see the figure of the prince, asked a few people, said that they saw him as if he was chopping wood and burning fire in the logistics support brigade of the guards brigade, helping to prepare meals.

Zhao Ta had no choice but to hurry to the fire army again, that place is the best to find, from a distance to see the smoke, the sound of people, this may be the most lively place in the whole camp, but it is also the busiest place, more than 200 people to prepare tens of thousands of meals is not an easy job.

Thirty or forty cauldrons were lined up, and several of the prince's special chefs were trotting through them at the moment, and the large pieces of meat in the pot were churning up and down with the splash, exuding an attractive aroma. The steamed heads were piled up like hills, and the heat was still shrouded in the thick quilt. Smelling the fragrance, Zhao Yong also felt hungry, but he didn't see the figure of the prince, and after asking, he learned that the prince had gone to the second brigade to deliver food again.

This time did not disappoint Zhao Yong, he walked into the camp of the Second Brigade, and saw that the prince was wearing his military uniform without a military rank mark, with a large apron on the outside, and a wooden barrel in his hand was adding food to each table. He didn't go up to bother, he casually found a place to sit down, and looked at the prince as if he had returned to the early days of the army more than ten years ago, when the prince would also serve everyone a good meal one by one like this, and then say hard work.

Wherever the prince went, all the veterans in the field who recognized the prince would immediately stand up and salute, but they didn't say a word, but just looked at the prince silently with tears in their eyes, because they had all been ordered not to divulge a word of the past, but how could the sudden appearance of the prince not make them excited, because they knew that the prince was by their side at all times!

"Second master, we won!" When Zhao Yong saw the prince coming, he immediately got up, stood upright, saluted and replied, he had been looking for the prince for a long time, and he wanted to tell him the news in person, because this great victory was completed under his own independent command.

"Okay, I'm hungry!" Zhao Ta just smiled and nodded, took a bowl full of it and handed it to Zhao Yongdao, "I can't serve it for you in the future, I have to eat it myself!" ”

"Commander, who is that fire army, why do all the commanders salute him?" A soldier asked his commanding officer.

"Because he is a man worthy of the admiration of every one of our Kruppers!" The commander looked at the prince and said solemnly... (To be continued......)
