As soon as Wu Shigong saw the Tartar cavalry trotting towards the phalanx of six hundred people, he knew that it was broken. Then Wu Shigong saw those Tartars stop their horses at a distance of more than a hundred paces, and when they dismounted and began to shoot arrows, they felt that something was wrong.

Wu Shigong immediately ordered Xue Qiang: "Sixth son, you quickly lead a squadron of cavalry to support Yu Qianhu's phalanx." ”

"Yes!" Xue Qiang immediately led a squadron of cavalry over. However, because the cavalry was behind the two phalanxes, Xue Qiang could only take the cavalry and bypass Yu Ji's phalanx.

But in just a little time, those bannermen had already shot three or four rounds of arrows. Although because he had learned about the combat methods of the Houjin army from Qin Liangyu, Wu Shigong also equipped his soldiers with some shields. But seeing the arrows flying over, in Yu Ji's phalanx, those military households who had only received little military training were still in chaos.

Fortunately, because they had to resist the cavalry charge, the soldiers of this phalanx were lined up very closely, so even if these soldiers wanted to escape, they were squeezed by the people behind them and couldn't turn around. Therefore, although the soldiers in the front row were hiding in Tibet and put down the spears in their hands, at least the formation had not collapsed.

But the conductor Niu Lu's forehead really thinks that this is enough. Under his whistle, the bannermen who were shooting arrows immediately got on their horses and rushed towards Yu Ji's phalanx.

In fact, it was not only Wu Shigong who felt bad, but Zhou Xun, who was commanding another phalanx on the side, also felt a little bad about whether Yu Ji's phalanx could withstand the charge of the Houjin cavalry. However, Zhou Xun could not move his phalanx without orders.

So, Zhou Xun shouted to the officer who was standing in front of his phalanx and commanding the musketeers: "Hurry up and take the musketeers to support Lord Yu." ”

But the officer who commanded the musketeers replied: "According to the rules of the army, we should stand in front of our own phalanx, and we should not move." ”

Zhou Xun was half angry by the officer's answer. In such a situation, this officer is still brainless, and he still has to talk about the rules in the army. But for a moment or three, Zhou Xun couldn't say anything wrong with this officer. So Zhou Xun said again: "Don't talk nonsense, go quickly!" That's an order! ”

Seeing Zhou Xun's resolute attitude, the officer hesitated for a moment, and then beckoned the firecrackers to run in the direction of Yu Ji's phalanx.

In fact, all this happened very quickly, and at this time, the first row of horses of the Houjin army had already collided with Yu Ji's phalanx. The cavalry of the Houjin army walked in an arc, and they collided with a corner of Yu Ji's phalanx.

The cavalry of the Houjin army wanted to disperse the phalanx of Yu Ji and press the rout in the direction of the phalanx of Zhou Xun and the cavalry of Wu Shigong in the back, so as to achieve the purpose of disrupting Wu Shigong's entire formation.

Nearly forty horsemen in the middle of the cavalry of the Jin army in this row crashed into the corners of the phalanx at once. Immediately caused a burst of people to roll on their backs. The soldiers standing in the first and second platoons almost immediately vomited blood. But because they were all supported by the soldiers behind them, they leaned straight even when they died.

And the Houjin army of these forty horsemen was basically stabbed into a hornet's nest by the spear array discharged from the phalanx, and only a few horses rushed into the phalanx because of the gap in the spear array.

But it was just a few horsemen who slashed left and right with sabers, causing chaos in the phalanx. Coupled with the fact that the twenty or so horsemen on both sides of the Houjin soldiers were all around the phalanx and slashed, the entire phalanx was on the verge of collapse.

At this time, the soldiers in Yu Ji's phalanx just wanted to resist, and the spears in their hands were not easy, because those Houjin soldiers were close, and they used the barrels of their spears to hit the Houjin soldiers horizontally, which had no lethality to the Houjin soldiers at all.

Fortunately, a few of the military instructors sent by Wu Shigong in the past were calmer, and they drew out the waist knives on their waists and pounced on those Houjin soldiers. With the example in front, the other soldiers also threw down the spears in their hands, drew their waist knives and fought with the Houjin soldiers.

Seeing that the first row of cavalry did not rush away from Yu Ji's formation, the second row of rear Jin soldiers also rushed over. But at this time, the musketeers sent by Zhou Xun also arrived, and they immediately fired a volley under the order of the officer.

This shot was particularly effective because it was within range. Knocked down the Houjin soldiers in the second row of more than 20 horsemen at once. You must know that Niu Lu really arranged the white-armored soldiers with the most combat experience in the first and third rows. This second row is basically all Jurchen recruits.

It should be said that the military law of Houjin is still very strict, and even after such a blow, these Jurchen recruits are still rushing forward. However, the sound of the firing made the recruits invariably make an evasion.

We all already know that as soon as people avoid it, they will make a backward movement, and with this backwards, the reins of the horses in the hands of these Jurchen recruits will be tightened. This slows down the horses.

When the Jurchen recruits raised the speed of their horses after the evasion was completed, the speed of the horses could no longer reach the maximum speed. In addition, more than 20 horses were knocked down, and the sparse horses crashed into Yu Ji's phalanx, but they still didn't crash away.

Then, of course, there was the third platoon of cavalry of the Houjin army. But at this time, the cavalry of the squadron led by Xue Qiang had already bypassed Yu Ji's phalanx. They didn't care about the Houjin cavalry surrounding Yu Ji's phalanx at all, but lined up in two rows and rushed towards the Houjin cavalry in the third row.

Then the golden cavalry saw Xue Qiang's cavalry and rushed over. In fact, when the two sides found each other, the two sides were already very close. When the horses were moving at high speed, the two sides met in an instant.

When the cavalry and the cavalry hedged, it was actually a test of the cavalry's will. Under normal circumstances, the weak-willed party will scatter and flee.

Horses are also spiritual animals, and of course they don't want to collide with any objects, so horses also make avoidance actions at this time. However, the cavalry on both sides was so closely aligned that the horses had no room to turn and could only rush straight forward.

The soldiers on both sides stretched their spears forward as best they could, and when they saw the opposing cavalry getting closer and closer, they all shouted hoarsely.

All of a sudden, the two sides converged, and whether or not the spears in their hands stabbed each other, the horses moving at high speed on both sides slammed into each other, and the soldiers on horseback flew out like matches in matchboxes that had fallen on the ground.

In the end, there were more Houjin cavalry in this platoon, and more than a dozen Houjin cavalry on each side rushed through this death charge. However, these Houjin cavalry then faced the cavalry of Wu Shigong's second row. Houjin's cavalry was no longer in array at this time, so it was swept away by Wu Shigong's cavalry like a gust of wind. Only a few Houjin cavalry escaped the catastrophe.

Seeing this tragic battle situation, Wu Shigong and Ba Duli both had their eyelids jumping. Wu Shigong immediately ordered his cavalry to press forward, and the phalanx led by Zhou Xun also pressed against Yu Ji's phalanx.

Seeing that the cavalry in the third row behind had been wiped out, under the orders of several white-armored soldiers, the Houjin cavalry besieging Yu Ji's phalanx also turned around, bypassed the cavalry in front of them, and retreated towards the main formation.

The place where the death collision took place is now covered with horse and human corpses. Some of the horses that were not yet dead and the soldiers on both sides were screaming and groaning.

At this time, Wu Shigong saw a person standing up in the pile of corpses, that person Wu Shigong knew, his name was Wei Changlin, he was a captain of his horse team, and he was also a gambling house guard he brought out of the capital.

Wei Changlin's face was covered with blood, and it was obvious that he had Venus in his eyes, and he couldn't see the situation around him clearly. Wei Changlin drew his saber and blindly slashed around.

But at this moment, a Houjin soldier suddenly held a short spear, got up from the pile of corpses, and stabbed the short spear through Wei Changlin's back.

Wu Shigong's eyes turned red all of a sudden, and a beastly cry came out of his throat. And the cavalry who saw this situation in front immediately surrounded it, and under the chaotic knife, cut the Houjin soldier into pulp.

In order to meet the retreating Houjin cavalry, Baduli led the remaining two Niu Lu to press forward. And Wu Shigong immediately led his remaining three cavalry squadrons to press up.

Moreover, Wu Shigong asked Yu Ji to rest in place and let Zhou Xun also move forward, and accompanied him to press it together. Wu Shigong must cross the place where the death collision took place and guard this place. Hopefully, I can save my own cavalry who may still be alive. It is one that can save one.

Under Zhou Xun's order, a small group of soldiers also left their phalanx and searched for the place where the death collision occurred, giving a knife to those Houjin soldiers who were not yet dead. and help their own wounded.

At a distance of about one hundred and fifty paces, the two sides stopped again and confronted each other.
