Under the fierce blows of the artillery fire of the loyal army, there were less than 100 horsemen who could withdraw to the camp, and only a handful were not injured, but the camel was so big that he trembled with fright, his eyes were frightened, and he was allergic to the sound of artillery, and he was afraid that he could only eat meat, and it was useless again. *book* bar () Brother Cha's heart is dripping blood, and the family money he has saved for many years has basically been made in half an hour, he is angry, sad, his teeth are clucking, and his old face is red, but it can't help solve the problems he is facing in front of him, and he has to find a way to fight it!

"Lose the car and protect the handsome!" Brother Cha is worthy of being a famous general among the famous generals, a hero among the heroes, since the long-range firepower is not an opponent, then he can only replace his own lifeline - the Iron Harrier. In the early days, the Iron Harrier was used as the guard and honor guard of the supreme ruler of Western Xia, and later developed into a special force that charged into battle and assaulted the enemy, and the emperor's army, which was also the elite of the Song Dynasty, degenerated into a real vase at this time.

Cavalry is the most important type of troops in the Xia army, and the most elite unit of the cavalry is called the 'Iron Harrier', and the Liao State 'Tielin Army' in the same period, and the Jin State 'Tiefutu' is known as the most elite heavy armored cavalry in the history of China's cold weapons. Each member of it is a brave man selected from the party soldiers and generals, with the best war horses, the most refined armor, and there are also fine iron armor at the key points of the horse, and the total weight can reach 800 catties. Such a strong protection not only makes ordinary piercing weapons unable to inflict fatal damage on horseback knights, but also makes them have super impact power. It's tantamount to a modern heavy tank, and when you swing it on the battlefield, you can scare the faint of heart!

In addition, the Iron Harrier tied the rider to the man and the horse with iron cables, so that even if the enemy was lucky, the soldiers on the horses could be hacked to death. People still won't fall off their horses, not only will they not disrupt the offensive formation, but they can still exert their residual heat and charge into battle as a human tank, continuing to inflict damage on the enemy. This force was well-equipped, fast-moving, and extremely powerful in combat especially on flat ground, and was arguably a nightmare for every enemy army he encountered.

Chago decided to take a gamble. To do the last fight, he lined up two thousand iron harriers in a horizontal line of one hundred and fifty horsemen each, and the distance between the horizontal teams was twenty paces, a total of more than ten teams. The impact surface was formed with a width of more than 300 paces, followed by 3,000 garrison cavalry, and then the Chinese army composed of more than 1,000 proton troops led by Chage, and those remaining garrisons and crossbow armies were broken off ()

"The order was given, and the armies acted immediately after seeing the signal. There must be no mistakes, and those who violate the order will be immediately beheaded! ”

"After receiving the order, the left flank quickly moved closer to the Chinese army and gave way to the main road along the river!"

"Ordered the artillery team to be reloaded with solid bullets, and the Xia army opened fire as soon as it entered the firing range. Immediately after three rounds of artillery fire, they retreated, scattering unloaded gunpowder along the way. Merge into the left flank line! ”

"Order the first and second battalions of the dragon generals of the loyal and brave army, and the first and second battalions of the tiger generals to cut off the rear army after the advance of the summer army. The forwards, state troops, and cavalry troops from all walks of life all attacked, covering from east to west, and the archers of each battalion blocked the main road along the river together with the crossbow army on the left flank! ”

"Send a signal, it's time for Yeli to move!"

Zhao Ta saw that the Xia army was rearranging the formation, and as soon as the iron harrier moved, he issued several orders in succession to convey to the various armies. He knew that although his artillery was powerful, it was too small to fire a shotgun to inflict fatal damage on the harriers loaded into the barrels; Launching live ammunition is powerful enough to smash the iron harrier to death, but the rate of fire and density are there, even if it is very accurate, destroy an enemy with one shot, the two armies are five hundred paces apart, and it will not take a few breaths to get to the front, and it will not be trampled into a meatloaf. And he doesn't plan to use his own foot soldiers and light cavalry to resist them, just run, more than 800 catties, no matter how strong the horse can run, those people who leave the horse will still be their own dish when they leave! …,

The sky is full of red clouds, the battlefield is bloody, the horse's hooves knock on the earth like dense rain, the iron armor shakes out the sound of stirring the heavens and the earth, and immediately overshadows the shouts of killing in other places, the iron harriers are dispatched, and they line up in a dense formation of horses with indomitable spirit, with the hope of the whole army to launch a decisive impact, shining armor, riding a horse that is a head higher than others, it is really imposing like a rainbow, it is indeed terrifying.

Zhao Ta did not think so about their performance, when the cavalry attacked the artillery, if it was in a flat open area, the formation should be spread out as much as possible to reduce the probability of being hit by the cannonballs and avoid the killing of shotguns. He doesn't have artillery, otherwise he would concentrate all the machine artillery of the loyal army, not to mention 2,000 iron harriers, even 20,000 can make them have no return, but unfortunately, he forgot that he used a weapon that was centuries ahead of others, it was really fucking shameless, if there was a companion who would definitely stretch out his middle finger and despise him...

After Xia Jun's iron harrier took a hundred steps, the horse had become a fast runner, and it was so natural to be able to carry such a large weight in such a short distance, and it was seen that its equestrian skills were skillful and well-trained. As they were marching, they suddenly saw a flash of fire rising from the Song army's formation, rising more than twenty zhang high, and then exploding in the air, turning into a dazzling red flower. Then the Song army moved, the left flank began to shrink towards the central army, and the scattered rangers quickly gathered together and rushed east...

"Hmph, the Song army is afraid, our Iron Harriers are invincible in battle..."They usually enjoy the highest treatment in the army, eat well, dress well, get on and off the horses and have people to serve them, even in the days when there is no food, their horses eat better than other generals.

'Bang', when the proud iron harriers were still intoxicated with the pride of the 'frightened' Song army running away, a large iron ball flew head-on and smashed into their array, if the others were next to each other, they would definitely wear a sugar gourd, and they would not stop if they didn't kill a few, but the one who was in the chest, but the iron armor was smashed into a big pit, and there were a few crisp sounds in the chest, embedded with a big iron ball, the body fell back, the mouth became a fountain, and a bright red liquid bubbled out, and the horse under him staggered and still moved forward.

"Tsk... It's amazing, so you don't fall off the horse! Zhao Ta smacked his lips with the binoculars and sighed, but he knew that the person's sternum must have been broken and his spine fractured, even if he could survive, he was also a high-level paraplegic cripple who couldn't take care of himself.

Although the artillery of the loyal and brave army was well-trained, they did not reach that far into the artillery, all of them were hit in the chest, and some touched their heads, of course, including the horse's head wearing a horse's face, the iron-masked man's head, and the rest hit the horse's leg and touched the horse's belly and other weak protective places. But these people are all people who are not afraid of death, they don't take their lives seriously, and they don't take other people's lives in their eyes.

When the artillery team of the loyal and brave army finished firing the three-wheeled cannon prescribed by the prince, although the iron harrier was blocked by them for a while, it was only less than 300 paces away, and the usual strict artillery training showed results, and they immediately connected the gun cart and the ammunition cart together, hung up the horse and ran away. By the time they fled back to their home camp along the passage they had left behind, their position had already been trampled by the Iron Harrier.

"What the fuck are you waiting for, the cannon is bombarding, waiting for me to invite you to drink, greet with incendiary bombs and flowering bombs first!" But the prince didn't understand these guys who escaped death at all, he gave two kicks to the artillery captain who was returning to his life, and shouted loudly.

"Release the arrows, release the arrows, and wait for Brother Cha to give you a reward!" The prince twisted his face and shouted at the snickering crossbow soldiers, everyone looked at the prince's angry appearance, of course, they dared to be angry and didn't dare to speak. But everyone also understands that the prince has spent so much effort to surround Brother Cha, but he has to make way for the iron harrier in the end, it is simply a failure, can you not nest fire! …,

"Don't stop, it's important to seize the pontoon bridge ahead!" Brother Cha saw that the Song army did not dare to wipe its edge, and his heart was overjoyed, seeing that the iron harrier was about to collide with the Song army's large array, he hurriedly shouted out the words in his heart, and everyone also understood at this time that the prince originally wanted to flee for his life, not to implement the plan to defeat the Song army! But we like it, can we not go hungry and desperately, but go home, whoever is not happy is a fool, for a while, Xia Jun cheered in unison, all praised the wisdom of the prince!

However, Brother Cha, who was like an arrow, quickly understood that the road home was not so smooth, and the road opened by his iron harrier was only three hundred steps wide, and he was facing the surging river on one side, and the unwilling Song army on the other side.

"The front army passed quickly, and the rear army formed a formation to fight and walk, blocking the Song army and protecting the passage!" Brother Cha immediately urged the army forward, but where could the team of four or five thousand people pass so quickly, the Song army over there also quickly completed the formation, and the cannons rumbled to bombard them, the shield hand was in front, and the low wall was surrounded by a big shield, and the pikemen erected a series of rejection horses, and the archers hiding behind threw at the passing Xia army, and Brother Cha could only organize some men and horses to shoot back to suppress the Song army, and the other side urged the army to move forward to seize the ferry.

'Crackling' suddenly a few crockpots fell between the ranks of the Xia army that were moving forward, and fell apart on the ground, and the viscous liquid inside splashed everywhere, exuding a pungent smell, but now who cares about what is in the study, but at this time a cannonball fell down and exploded, and the splashing sparks ignited those liquids, and the ground also whirred with flames, the fire spread rapidly, and soon became a sea of fire, animals are not afraid of fire, war horses are also animals, of course, no exception, these sudden fires immediately ignited the mane on the horse's body, and scared them to scatter and flee。

"Ha Luha, burn you!" Zhao Tan smiled, the gunpowder scattered by the artillery when they retreated was ignited, and he kept igniting the dropped Molotov cocktail, and lit a fire in front of the formation, but he also understood that this little thing would not burn for long, but it was still possible to cause some chaos to the Xia army... (To be continued......)
