Chapter 362: Yingchang's Great Victory (2)

Why did most of the infantry in Yan Wushu be improvised strong men?

From the defeat of the Battle of Shunchang at the beginning to the defeat of Xiaoshanghe that just ended, Wanyan Wushu has lost six or seven tough battles in a row; In these defeats, except for the first battle of Yuncheng, Wanyan Wushu only brought 15,000 pure cavalry, and the rest of the battles were fought between tens of thousands of mixed arms.

When the golden soldiers are defeated, the cavalry may still be able to escape, and for the infantry who can only walk on two legs, death and rout are the most likely fate.

The rout here refers to the fact that the infantry fled from their original units and went home.

After six or seven consecutive defeats, how many tens of thousands of infantry did he have under his command to squander?

Because of this, like the national army in the late stage of the Celestial Empire's Liberation War, temporarily capturing strong men was the only way to increase the strength of the Wanyan Wushu

Compared with the simple tactics of Wanyan Wushu, the tactics of the Yue family army were a little more complicated.

The approach of the supreme commander Wang Gui was: 30,000 hoplites advanced step by step in the front, and fought hard with the cavalry of the Jin State; The 800 most elite Beiwei army, led by Yue Yun, forcibly rushed into the position of the Jin soldiers, confusing and breaking up the formation of the Jin soldiers; There are still 3,000 cavalry of the White Army, which will be handed over to Dong Xian, first, to protect the city, and second, to serve as a reserve for the battle, in case of emergencies on the battlefield.

Obviously, Wang Gui put the key to the victory of the decisive battle on the person who won the official.

If Yue Yun and the Eight Hundred Beiwei Army fought well and successfully disrupted the deployment of the Jin soldiers, the victory of the Yue Army's army was in sight.

Opposite. If Yue Fei can't play a role. was even besieged and killed in the Golden Soldier Array. Then Wang Gui's 30,000 infantry will be miserable.

Don't take bean packets for dry food.

As long as it is cavalry, it has a natural advantage over the infantry, not to mention that the 30,000 cavalry is the capital he used to press the bottom of the box with his complete Yan Wushu?

The sound of drums in the Yue family's army corresponded to the long and wild horn sound of the Jin soldiers.

Wanyan Wushu and Wang Gui's army were finally entangled.

At the same time, the 800 cavalry army rushed to the 100,000 gold army without hesitation.

Judging from the picture at this moment, the behavior of Yue Yun and the eight hundred warriors of the Riding Back Army was like a mayfly shaking a tree, or a mantis arm blocking a car, or a moth fighting a fire.

The gap between the two sides is too big!

can be in this case. Yue Yun and the warriors of the Eight Hundred Cavalry Warriors rushed left and right, and actually broke through the defense line of the Jin Army and deeply entered the opponent's camp.

In the era of cold weapons, charging into battle is the most difficult task.

Not only must the fighters have sufficient courage and force, but also the endurance of long-term combat and the ability to observe and analyze in detail.

When rushing into battle, different route choices and different rhythm mastery will have very different results.

Another point is that during the charge you must fight continuously, and you must never stop; Because if there is a halt in the operation, it will be immediately besieged. It's harder to get started

Wanyan Wushu was now standing on a high place to observe the situation, but the progress of the battle made him more and more worried.

The first is on the frontal battlefield of the two armies. The cavalry of the Jin Kingdom faced the infantry of the Yue family's army, and they couldn't take any advantage, and it was completely a stalemate.

On the long front, the two sides fought for every inch of land, relying on courage, body, blood, and so on, barely maintaining the temporary balance of the front.

In the middle army, the left and right flanks and the rear army of the Jin soldiers, although the formation still exists, the formation can barely maintain stability; But Yue Yun's team rushed back and forth in it, and no one could suppress them.

In this way, a cavalry force of less than 1,000 people actually rampaged in the belly of the golden soldiers, coming and going freely, taking and grabbing, as if they were strolling leisurely.

This shocked all the Jurchens!

A few days ago, they had already withstood the impact of Yang Zaixing and the Three Hundred Yue Family's Youyi Army. With the bravery of those dead soldiers, they will inevitably be buried in the chaos in the end, and all of them will be destroyed.

How can this Yue Yun do whatever he wants, could they be even stronger than that Yang Zaixing?

This comparison is actually not fair, because the environment and conditions of the two people are very different.

First of all, Yue Yun had been recuperating in the first few days of the decisive battle and had not experienced continuous combat; Secondly, Yue Yun did not patrol the defense area with dozens of battle wounds in the heavy rain, consuming physical strength; Moreover, Yue Yun was not fighting alone, behind them there were Wang Gui's 30,000 Yue family army hoplites.

If you have to compare, the current Yue Yun is similar to Yang Zaixing in the first battle of Yuncheng, galloping across the golden soldier position like a vast ocean, and his edge is exposed.

Of course, there is another point that cannot be ignored, the troops led by Yue Yun are completely different from Yang Zaixing's.

The three hundred cavalry led by Yang Zaixing were brave, but after all, they were just ordinary guerrilla soldiers; The 800 cavalry army led by Yue Yun is the most elite cavalry unit in the Yue family's army, and it is a special forces unit carefully prepared by Yue Fei and invested a lot of resources.

Not to mention anything else, just the horses, armor, weapons and other equipment of the Beiwei Army are the best and most sophisticated choices that the Yue Family Army can come up with, and it is really difficult to compare with other legions

Throughout history, there have been many invincible iron armies on Chinese soil; And these iron armies are all capable of winning more with less, invincible, and terrifying the enemy.

The first to have the name of invincible is, of course, the mercenary of the Eastern Jin Dynasty gate lord - Beifu soldiers.

The Book of Jin? The Biography of Liu Gaozhi recorded: "At the beginning of the Taiyuan Dynasty, Xie Xuanbei Town Guangling. Shi Fujian Fang Sheng, Xuan Duo recruited vigorously, and he was elected with He Qian of the East China Sea, Zhuge Kan of Langxi, Gao Heng of Le'an, Liu Liang of Dongping, Luo of Xihe Tian and Sun Wuzhong of Jinling. Xuan took the prison as the army, led the elite as the vanguard, won a hundred battles, and was called the Beifu soldier. ”

"Qualification Tongjian": "Xuan recruited brave people, and several people such as Liu Gaozhi of Pengcheng joined the army, and often led the elite as the forward. No victory. The time number is Beifu Bing. ”

The famous Battle of Weishui in history is the masterpiece of the Beifu soldiers.

A.D. 383. That is, in the nineteenth year of the former Qin Jianyuan, 8,000 Beifu soldiers broke the main force of the Qin army, killing and annihilating the 700,000 troops of the former Qin army, and Fu Jian's dynasty also collapsed.

The second force that can be called invincible is, of course, the guard army of Genghis Khan of the Yuan Dynasty - the Cowardly Xue Army.

"Yuan History? It is recorded in the Second Chronicle of the Soldiers: "The guardian is also the forbidden soldier of the Son of Heaven." During the time of Fang Taizu, Mu Huali, Chi Lao Wen, Bo Erhu, and Boer Shu were the four cowardly Xue, and the cowardly Xue was divided into Su Wei when he called Liban Qu Rhythm, and he still said that the four masters were also. Taizu ordered his world to lead the cowardly Xue Zhi. Those who are cowardly are still talking about the guard. ”

The Xue Army, which had the four heroes of the early Yuan Dynasty, was not only Genghis Khan's guard, but also the most important cornerstone of building the ruling foundation of the Great Mongol Empire.

Sweeping across the two continents of Asia and Europe, these seven simple words can already show their invincibility in bravery.

The third group claimed to be invincible was Li Shimin's Xuanjia Army in the late Sui and early Tang Dynasties.

Li Shimin created the pinnacle of China's feudal society, and one of his great swords for founding the country was the "Xuanjia Army".

It is recorded in the "Zizhi Tongjian": "The Qin King Shimin selected more than 1,000 elite horsemen, all dressed in Xuanjia, divided into left and right teams, so that Qin Shubao, Cheng Zhijie, Wei Chi Jingde, and Zhai Changsun were divided into generals. Every battle. Shimin was taken as a striker by Xuanjia Shuai and took the opportunity to attack. Everything is destroyed, and the enemy is afraid of it. ”

In the battle of Tiger Prison Pass, which decided the ownership of the world, Dou Jiande led the elite main force of more than 100,000 troops to support Wang Shichong, while Li Shimin only used 3,500 Xuanjia elite soldiers to reinforce Tiger Prison Pass for the forward.

There was a huge disparity in the strength of this battle, but the final result shocked the world.

Li Shimin led the Xuanjia Army to break Dou Jiande's 100,000 army, and Dou Jiande only led a few hundred horsemen to escape. Subsequently, Wang Shichong of Luoyang was also eliminated. The situation in the world completely turned to the side of the Don Army.

There was the Tang generation, and martial arts were strong for a while. Li Shimin relied on his genius military ability to create an era, and the Xuanjia Army was the sharpest sword in his hand!

No wonder Bai Juyi, the "poetry demon" of the late Tang Dynasty, wrote a poem and praised: "Taizong raised eighteen volunteers, and Bai Yang and Huang Yue set two capitals; Capture and kill Dou Sihaiqing, and four achievements in twenty. ”

And now, in Shaoxing in the Southern Song Dynasty for ten years, in front of the city of Yingchang Mansion, Yue Fei's Beiwei Army has sharpened a sword for ten years, re-enacting the invincible glory of our Han nation

A small short sword was stuck straight upside down on the ground, and in the sunlight, the shadow of the sword body was gradually shortening, and only a short tail remained.

Judging from the shadow of the sword, the time has passed.

In other words, the battle that began in the hour had been fought for two hours and four hours.

During this period of time, Yue Yun and the eight hundred horseback soldiers had already fought in and out of the enemy formation for dozens of rounds, killing people for blood and horses for blood horses; Yue Yun was wounded in more than 100 places, and the Jin and Song armies were victorious.

The record in Volume 9 of the "Jin Tuo Cui Compilation" is: "...... The battle was not worried about ten numbers, in and out of the captive array, the armor was red, and the body was wounded by more than 100 wounds. ”

Here, the on-the-spot command of Wanyan Wushu has to be praised:

In the case of being unable to suppress Yue Yun and his Beiwei army head-on, Wanyan Wushu relied on the flexible scheduling in front of the battle, relying on the advantage of being outnumbered and overwhelming, and stubbornly maintained the situation.

At that time, the situation was that as long as the situation continued to maintain the current state of see-saw, the scale of victory would gradually move closer to the golden soldiers.

The reason for this trend is that the proportion of Jin cavalry far exceeds that of the Yue army.

To inflict the same amount of lethality, the infantry must have exerted more physical strength than the cavalry; The longer the battle drags on, the greater the difference in physical strength between the two sides.

It's no wonder that Wanyan Wushu's frowning brows have begun to stretch

Such a situation, Wan Yan can see it clearly, and Wang Gui also knows it.

As the real power figure of the third in the Yue family's army, Wang Gui's style is more than steady, and his courage is slightly insufficient; Often hesitant when it matters most, and it is difficult to stick to their beliefs.

The situation began to be bad, and Wang Gui's first thought was to retreat.

Behind him is Yingchang City, the city wall is high and thick, easy to defend and difficult to attack, and it seems that it is a good choice to return to the city to defend, at least it can preserve its strength and will not be wiped out.

At the critical moment, the blood-colored Yue Yun rode his horse to his side and asked him to fight to the end-

The Northern Expedition has become a lone army, and the retreat of size will lead to the hatred of breaking the embankment! . (To be continued......)
