Chapter 903: The Jurchens Are So Unbeaten?
The Song cavalry was not wiped out, so the Khitan cavalry that had been killed and scattered was able to regroup in the field. Many lucky Khitans looked back, and the battlefield full of corpses made the vast majority of people fall silent.
The other party is not the strongest enemy they have ever faced, but this battle is definitely the biggest psychological gap for them.
Whether it is the expected Goryeo cavalry or the unexpected appearance of the Song cavalry, in the impression of the Khitans, there is not much difference, it is nothing more than the degree of rotten and worse. Although the king of the steppe was prostrate at the feet of the more barbaric Jurchens, when facing the cavalry of the above two countries, they really had to rely on the Hongfu of their ancestors, and they had an absolute psychological advantage.
But who knows, the original battle of nine out of ten, now can only rely on the contempt of the other party to survive, a stick of incense before also vowed to find the opponent to find the proud Khitan cavalry of the steppe people, at this moment the face is full of decadence and frustration.
When people are vulnerable, they unconsciously want to find a backbone to rely on. And Aliqi, the recognized god of war of the Khitans, jumped off his silver fist in a panic at this time. At the moment when Aliqi's feet touched the ground, the boxer horse, who insisted on carrying his master out of danger, let out a long hiss, and fell to the ground with a bang. Alich was heartbroken and wept bitterly. Real knights and war horses have feelings, and only when this special emotion is established will there be a miracle of people and horses on the battlefield, just like the Song general and his mount just now.
The Khitan people are all people who understand horses, and seeing that the boxer horse suffered internal injuries, everyone couldn't help but wonder, if he could make his war horse into internal injuries in the hands of Aliqi, what kind of character would Song Jiang be? A Khitan man with palpitations stepped forward and said, "Is it caused by a Song general wearing gold armor?" ”
"Exactly! This person is strange to say, he actually makes a soft rod spear, and the power of the end is amazing! Did you fight him? The insider replied on Arich's behalf.
"Ahh Where have I fought against him? Probably hit him head-on. Only the little general was unscathed, and the others ...... Others, alas! ”
When everyone saw it, they all had a relationship.
"What to do? Do you want to kill and take revenge? Looking at the grief-stricken Aliqi, Biting Er Weikang asked the main general Dong Xian who had gathered over. And not long ago, the general sent by the cave immortal to rescue the Jurchen captives under the city was this person.
"We have no armor. There are no bows and arrows, is it not appropriate to count the lives of the sons and daughters, and fight hard with the elite cavalry of the Western Army of the Song Kingdom? ”
The cave immortal is the main general in the end, and his speech is powerful and level. At this time, a rhetorical question made the biting child Weikang and the resentful person speechless. The cavalry of the Song Army has just been tested by everyone, and nine out of nine are the Western Army of the Song Kingdom! Otherwise, how could the two thousand elite horsemen of his own front army not take advantage of the other party in the slightest? The god of war Aliqi also suffered a big loss at the hands of the other party!
Since it is the Song army, and he is familiar with the Jurchen kidnapping horse tactics, all this shows that the Song State is not good! Looking at the direction from which Song Jun was galloping, the right eyelid of the cave fairy jumped violently. At this moment, Aliqi wiped away his tears, restrained his emotions and said:
"It is not advisable to stay here for a long time, since the Song army abandoned our army and went straight to the Jurchen array, it means that it must have no fear, otherwise even if it is the Western Army of the Great Song Dynasty, it will not dare to rely on only six or seven thousand horsemen, and Meng Lang will attack the cavalry group with three times its own strength! If that's the case. This Song army, with the unicorn as its totem, is killing itself! Obviously, I don't think they've come all the way to Goryeo to die! ”
The crowd was justified when they heard it. They all subconsciously aimed in the direction where the Song army appeared, for fear that another Song cavalry would appear in sight. It's also embarrassing, and I couldn't ask for the object of my anger just now, but at this time, I can't avoid it.
"Withdraw!" The cave immortal didn't think about it for long, and then made a decision in accordance with the will of the army.
"Where to retreat? How can the Jurchens get along well? Biting Er Weikang said what everyone wanted. Seeing that the reinforcements of the Song army are very likely to arrive, the entire battlefield has become a dangerous place. Going back to entangle the Qilin army that spared one of their own horses, or staying where they are and waiting for the next Song army to appear, is not what everyone wants. But if they stood by and watched, the Jurchens couldn't explain it, so everyone was very distressed for a while.
"Go to the pontoon! I'm going to see. Make a decision again! As soon as the cave fairy raised his horse's whip, he was about to turn the horse's head, and everyone saw this and called for the rout, and at this moment, Aliqi grabbed the reins of the cave fairy and said in a deep voice:
"What do you want to see? What decisions to make? ”
The cave immortal glanced at Aliqi meaningfully, and said with a pun: "I want to see the determination of the Song people!" ”
……
Just when the Khitans were advancing and retreating, the forward of the Song army had already collided with the Bohai army's formation, but even if they were face-to-face, the warring parties had not yet figured out the true identity of the other party. The Bohai people still regarded their opponent as the Goryeo cavalry, but in view of their amazing performance of defeating the Khitan cavalry in one round, the Bohai people decided that the opposite team was the elite Beijing army of the Goryeo royal family.
And this elite cavalry, which was successively regarded by the enemy as the Western Army of the Great Song Dynasty and the Goryeo Jing Army, was the Lu Junyi Department of the Seventh Army of the Liangshan Poma Army.
It is precisely because Liangshanbo, who has been in the strong army, has always been unknown, not only the faces of the officers and men of the whole army are gloomy, but even the personable Lu Yuanwai can't sit still this time, and he has to fight for the position of this vanguard.
To tell the truth, in fact, Wang Lun is not very at ease with the Seventh Army of the Ma Army, because among the main generals of the Ma Army, only Lu Junyi and Hao Siwen are not from the military, but the latter has the ambition to make a name for himself in the battle since he was a child, so he either learns martial arts or reads military books on weekdays, and the accumulation in the first half of his life is no less than that of a leader from a military background. And Lu Junyi is just different, this is the richest man in Hebei, in addition to personal martial arts, there is basically no pursuit in life, and he can go hundreds of miles away to burn incense and repay his wishes with a jump of his eyelids, obviously living too nourishingly, like this quality of life, it is estimated that he has no time to study the secrets of the military family that have nothing to do with life planning.
In the original trajectory, Lu Junyi served as the commander of the front army many times, but this was all due to his status at that time (Liangshan's second son), and his style of leading troops was more decent, and he was step-by-step with the assistance of Zhu Wu, and there were few outstanding things in military strategy.
Of course, after Lu Junyi fell into the grass, especially after he led the troops alone, he was "stimulated" by friendly troops, and naturally he would consciously fill in his shortcomings. While Wang Lun gave him recognition, he also supplemented him with generals such as Han Tao, the general of Baisheng, and Peng Xi, the general of Tianmu, to assist in the military. It's just that there is a saying that it is too extravagant, maybe there are always better choices in hand, so that Wang Lun still ignores Lu Junyi and his men too much, and always feels that his horse army is still in the stage of building the foundation, so he rarely lets them take charge of any big battles alone. It wasn't until this time, Lu, Han, and Peng fought to the death for the vanguard, that Wang Lun realized that he had neglected this team too much before.
The vanguard gave Lu Junyi, but Wang Lun also gave a lot of instructions, in Wang Lun's original words, the enemy they were about to face was a half-beast and half-human existence.
Just after fighting with the first Hulu, Lu Junyi's sensitive heart rose to his throat. He had already overestimated the combat power of the Jurchens to an incredible extent according to Wang Lun's instructions, but after the fight, he was surprised! At that time, if he hadn't relied on his mount to make his power, he Lu Junyi was afraid that he would have to make a big mistake! This shock is not trivial, who would have thought that the Jurchens would be so strong that they would casually pull out a small general, who is a figure at the level of the five tiger generals of Liangshan?
Fortunately, the hanging heart didn't hang for long, and it was put down. The next enemy, although superb riding skills and fierce fighting, is not the kind of existence that is completely desperate. In the comings and goings, you can be described as evenly matched, there are losses to each other, and there is no one who has an overwhelming advantage over whom. On the contrary, because the enemy's rear army went into battle without armor, the result was that our army took a great advantage, and defeated these strong enemies who outnumbered their own in one battle.
This victory was not easy, especially the kind of coordination between the enemy and the horses, which was simply a disadvantage that the current army could not reach. But it's not difficult, and it's not to the point where you have to grit your teeth.
But the positive impact of this victory is enormous, after all, ghosts are far more terrifying than tigers and wolves, simply because the former is invisible. This defeat gave Ma Qijun a preliminary understanding of the Jurchens, and more importantly, this cavalry army, which had been ignored for a long time, showed its confidence!
With confidence, the remnants of the defeated army were no longer in his eyes, and Lu Junyi generously left it to the friendly troops behind. The order he received was to ensure the personal safety of the county order, and at this time, the infantry of the Jin State had landed in the city, and it could be said that at the last moment, Lu Junyi was in a hurry, and led the army to attack the enemy's large array.
As soon as he came into contact with the Jurchens' main army formation, Lu Junyi was shocked in his heart, don't look at the armor matching rate of this formation is higher than that of Fang Cai's team, but as an opponent who fights for his life, he feels that his own side is obviously inferior to the army just now. I don't know if it's because of the power of his army's victory, he clearly caught cowardice and retreat from the eyes of his opponents more than once.
Is this really a Jurchen strong soldier who beat the Khitans to the brink? Lu Junyi looked around, at a loss in his heart, but there was only a cavalry of more than 1,000 people left on the battlefield that had not fought for the time being, and this group of men and horses was fleeing in the direction of the city with thousands of ownerless war horses.
Such an army can make the Liao State face the disaster of annihilation, so to what extent should the Khitans degenerate now? Lu Junyi is really a little incomprehensible, but this is not the time to think deeply, when facing a comeback opponent, Lu Junyi made a decision that he will regret for half his life in the future:
"The whole army has it, and with one blow, follow me to break down the main formation of the army!" (To be continued.) )
