On November 1st, the cold wind blows through the air, and there is always a chill everywhere it goes.

Also in the Chen period, when the Yanzhou rebellion was completely purged, the Great Zhou Emperor Guo Wei had already led a heavy army to the city of Jinzhou and led nearly 100,000 troops to meet the Liao-Han coalition army.

Since the black dragon banner symbolizing the emperor's personal expedition was raised above the camp, the Liao-Han coalition army under the city of Jinzhou suddenly fell into a depression and panic.

The Liao cavalry led by Xiao Yu was not greatly damaged, and there were about 45,000 people, but the 20,000 elite soldiers brought out by the Northern Han Emperor Liu Chong were only more than 9,000 left, and the two sides together were only 54,000 people. When the two sides faced each other, the coalition forces also had to resist the surprise attack of the defenders in Jinju City; The most important point is that the follow-up food of the coalition army has not yet been delivered from Jinyang, and the stored grain can only support the army for more than ten days, and it is necessary to quickly decide how to face this disadvantaged battle situation everywhere!

Therefore, when Liu Chong rushed to Xiao Yu's tent to ask for a plan, Xiao Yu was so violent that he ran out of the tent first, and fiercely whipped Hu Khan, who had been tied to the wooden pole outside the tent for seven days, before turning around and shouting: "Fight!" I, Khitan Yong'er, have no precedent for retreating without a fight! ”

Then let's fight! The Liao-Han coalition army immediately left the camp as a whole and faced the reinforcements of the Great Zhou.

The Liao-Han coalition army put on a strange "three-one-two" formation, with three phalanxes side by side in front, each with 10,000 cavalry; In the middle are the nine thousand Xi and the most elite soldiers of the Khitan; The soldiers on the west side were guarded by 3,000 Khitan cavalry, facing the south and west at the same time, focusing on guarding against the attack in Jinju City. This battle formation, to say optimistic, is offensive and defensive, to say pessimistic, that is, the Liaohan coalition army desperate gamble, success or failure depends on whether the front cavalry impact can open the war situation in one fell swoop.

The Great Zhou army moved when they heard the alarm and went out of the camp to set up a formation.

Rows after rows of large arrays of huge shields and small soldiers' rejecting horses came out of the camp in order, sandwiched between archers, with a total number of more than 50,000 and a width of more than three li, forming a huge and incomparably large "one"; Immediately following this big "one" out of the camp were two cavalry phalanxes, one on the left and one on the right, each with 6,000 men; Behind the battle formation is a temporary high platform at the front end of the camp, with 30,000 elite cavalry arrays in front, and the regiments guarding Emperor Guo Wei, forming a very strange "one-two-one" formation.

"Da Liao is invincible! Capture Guo Wei alive! Xiao Yu pulled the reins fiercely, and the man stood up upright along the horse that raised his front hooves, waving his knife and shouting wildly.

"Da Liao is invincible! Capture Guo Wei alive! The Liao-Han coalition army roared in unison, but because it was a mixture of Chinese and Khitan, the momentum was not as terrifying as imagined.

"Whoever offends me Da Zhou, kill!" Guo Wei sat on the high platform and roared.

"Kill!"

"Kill!"

The uniform sound of Lang rang up from all over the Zhou soldiers' formations, and the most resounding and incomparably loud "kill"! The shouts that erupted from the depths of the hearts of the 100,000 Great Zhou men echoed on the battlefield for a long time, instantly suppressing the roar of the Liaohan coalition army.

"Those who dare to retreat will be killed!" Xiao Yuju's cavalry patrolled and waved his hand to attack. The thick horns sounded one after another, and the three cavalry phalanxes started one after another, and slowly adjusted into three offensive arrows during the march, rushing towards the Great Zhou Shield Formation.

"Steady! Archers ready! The Great Zhou Longjie, who was in charge of commanding the shield array, commanded Shi Yanchao, commanded He Hui, and Chen Sirang and Kang Yannuo, the envoys of the left chamber, turned their heads and stared at the command banner on the high platform, and shouted loudly. There are countless wars between the Han people in the Central Plains and the northern ethnic groups, and it is the most important thing to resist the impact of the opponent's cavalry group in such a field battle, and everyone is familiar with it.

With the shouting of the command "release", a dense rain of arrows rushed out of the shield array and rushed straight into the range of the cavalry.

One by one, the Khitan cavalry tightened their bodies behind the shield and rushed forward desperately. There are only three arrows in battle, as long as you rush through the area covered by the arrows, it is the world of cavalry!

In the three torrents rolling southward, there were cavalry that fell into the dust one after another and were crushed to pieces by the follow-up torrent, but the torrent of attack became faster and faster, more and more, and the cavalry at the front slammed into the shield array in the front row!

As soon as the two forces collided with the galloping horse and the static shield, the animal power and the manpower, and the two forces that were extremely dynamic collided, they exploded immediately, and the horses were back, the shields were broken, the people flew, the guns were broken, and the knives were broken, and the first row of shield arrays were all broken at once, and then the humanoid horse-repelling array, which was dominated by soldiers with spears, was also knocked out, and the stumps and blood flew sideways.

"Resist the horse formation, steady! The back row shield is moved forward! There were shouts one after another in the Great Zhou Array. The most terrible thing about cavalry is speed, as long as the enemy's speed slows down, the horse rejection array and shield array are the sharp weapons to strangle the cavalry!

Shi Yanchao, who was tall and strong, screamed repeatedly, kicked over a slow shield-wielding soldier, bent down to pick up a spear, threw it hard, pierced a Khitan cavalry who was roaring forward, turned around and shouted: "Go up!" Go up! ”

The impactor, the man Pegasus flips; Those who were hit, the shield flew away. Such a tragic scene lasted for only a quarter of an hour, and a small half of the Zhou army's shield array had been broken, at least tens of thousands of Zhou troops fell, and three or four thousand Khitan cavalry also fell at the same time.

"Three stacks of Lang, keep attacking!" Xiao Yu smirked, snatched the horn from a trumpeter, jumped onto the horse, and blew a tight triple sound.

Hearing the order, the Khitan cavalry roared wildly, and many people ripped off the fur on their chests, struck their chests and shouted wildly, exerting their feet to drive the horses into three rows and a total of three groups of attack formations. This is a common ramming attack trick for the Khitan cavalry when it encounters obstacles in the field, like a Lang tight like a Lang, so it is called "three stacks of Lang".

At the sound of the horn, the Khitan cavalry that had rearranged the formation started again, and in front of them, the scattered cavalry that had lost their galloping speed hurriedly took their horses away and freed up the impact route.

Seeing this scene, Du Paichen, who had been standing on the horse to watch the formation, sent Yao Yuanfu to the other side of the camp, and the commander of the horse army shouted Qiu Hongchao: "General Qiu, let's attack!" ”

Qiu Hongchao looked back and happened to see the cavalry attack banner held high on the rear command platform, and immediately waved his hand and shouted: "Cavalry attack!" Cavalry strikes! ”

The rapid sound of drums sounded, and many heralds rode out, passing orders from the rear of the shield array to the front, and the shield array quickly vacated two wide passages. The two cavalry phalanxes of the Zhou army and the Chinese army slowly activated, adjusted into a cone shape during the action, and accelerated to rush forward.

At this time, the "three-fold Lang" attack of the Khitan cavalry had rushed to the front of the formation, and continued to knock down and hammer down the already incomplete shield array and horse rejection array. At this speed, it will soon be able to penetrate the entire shield array.

Yao Yuanfu and Qiu Hongchao each held a big gun, rushed to the front, and fiercely plunged into the "Three Stacks of Lang" formation, which had reduced their speed, showing a sharp edge against tissue paper, and immediately plowed out two blood passages in the Khitan cavalry formation.

"Counter-charge?" Xiao Yuju, who had been keeping an eye on the development of the battlefield, sneered, waved his hand, and ordered the nine thousand Xi tribes and Khitan elites of the Chinese army to attack. At the most critical moment, using the most elite soldiers to complete the fatal blow has always been a favorite move of the Khitan cavalry.

These elites of the Liao State were all warriors who had experienced a hundred battles, and they were all silent, and quickly adjusted the team into a long wedge. The horses' hooves trampled into thunder, accelerating to the sound of the trumpet.

"The elite of the rear army attacked!" Guo Wei on the high platform stood up suddenly and roared wildly.

At the critical moment of the war, the cold wind intensified, and there were scattered snowflakes in the air.
