Chapter 56: Hedging

In front of him, more than half of the Jin Guowan horsemen had already gone ashore, and those who went ashore first lined up to guard the tidal flats to prevent the Song army from raiding.

They wear double layers of heavy armor, horses do not wear armor, and when they are in battle, they mostly fight on foot to meet the enemy, and of course they can also fight on horse.

If you win, you will chase on horseback, and if you lose, you will stick to the spot, reorganize the army and make a breakthrough, you can repeatedly fight in turns, and your will to fight is extremely firm.

In terms of military quality, the Jin army in the early days of the founding of the People's Republic of China can be called the top of the feudal era, everyone is a veteran of a hundred battles, even if there is no officer to order, every soldier knows what to do when and when, which makes their organization rigorous is by no means comparable to that of the Liao State and the Song State.

Seeing that Fan Zhuoyuan's troops were already in formation, and the people and horses were equipped, they were also very dignified, and discussed with the Khitan deputy general beside him, stretching out his horsewhip and pointing.

Then the Khitan deputy general said a few words flatteringly, and the Jin general laughed, and shouted at Fan Zhuoyuan and them a few times.

The Khitan lieutenant general translated again: "General Song on the other side, your subordinates' equipment is very good, and our Jin army will thank you and accept it all with a smile!"

Now honestly take off your equipment, abandon your horse and surrender, we can still spare your lives, otherwise under the iron hoof, you will definitely wait for the head to build a Jingguan! ”

Fan Zhuoyuan laughed fiercely, raised the dragon slaying knife high, and turned back and said: "The Jin people are arrogant, they don't know that I am powerful in the army, and today I will give them a lesson that will be unforgettable for a lifetime!" Swift army, cavalry assault! ”

Xiao Jiejun, whose eyes were blood-red, looked at the Jin army opposite, thinking of the hatred of his relatives who lost their lives at home, and let out a heaven-shattering roar, which shocked the Jin army who was guarding the formation on the opposite side.

I saw Fan Zhuoyuan in front, and behind him 5,000 people with heavy horses and heavy horses were divided into ten rows, and 500 horses were in a row, almost shoulder to shoulder, like a wall, not fast or slow to advance with guns!

When charging, each row is more than 30 paces apart, and does not close to each other, this is to ensure that the front row charges are completed, and also to leave room for the rear row to charge the second or even third wave of the enemy.

Otherwise, if the front and rear cavalry of the infantry phalanx are close together, the rear row will not be able to exert its effect.

The Jin army had never seen a cavalry using such a long snake formation, and they were amazed.

The Jin general also reacted extremely quickly, knowing that the distance between the two sides was only a hundred steps, and for the war horse, this hundred steps distance would soon be able to break through.

So he made a quick decision and ordered the thousands of cavalry who had already landed on the shore to assemble, mount their horses, and rush to the opposite side with a lost front.

Although the front is out of formation, the formation used is not as close as the Song army's shoulder-to-shoulder, and there is often at least one or more space between the two horses.

This is because it is necessary to ensure that after each charge, if the opponent's formation cannot be chiseled, there will be enough space to pull the horse's head sideways and leave quickly, giving space to the comrades who charge in the rear.

Supported by the belief that the Jurchens were not satisfied with 10,000 and were invincible, they believed that in the face of such a thin cavalry array, once they charged, they would inevitably be directly torn apart, and once they were torn, the next thing would be a rabbit-like chase battle!

The opponent's horse gear looks powerful, but the guerrilla after the charge will suffer a big loss.

The distance between the two sides quickly approached within a hundred steps, and Fan Zhuoyuan blew the horn in his hand, which meant that it had reached the acceleration stage.

The cavalry in the rear clamped their legs between the bellies of their horses, and because of their heavy armor, they were not equipped with shields, and the dense array made it possible for the cavalry in the middle to be carried forward by their companions on both sides without having to manipulate the reins.

Therefore, both hands can be freed, holding the spear to keep it steady, recalling the brutal killing of the Jin army and the tragic death of their relatives, the soldiers let out a roar of filial piety, and their anger gradually turned into murderous intent.

The distance was close to the last fifty steps, Fan Zhuoyuan blew the horn again, the voice was urgent, and the whole army shouted loudly to kill, launching the final sprint.

The Jin soldiers on the opposite side were also charging, but they were also shocked to see that the Song army in front of them really dared to rush against them.

They had fought against the Liao cavalry, and in the face of the frantic charge of the Jurchen cavalry, the Liao cavalry would often be so frightened that the whole army would scatter at about fifty paces, and they would not dare to meet the frontal hedge, and they would start guerrilla cavalry shooting, which directly caused the formation to collapse, and was finally pursued and routed by the more organized Jin cavalry.

And the Song army in front of them was so bold, which shocked them.

Many soldiers of the Jin Army were thinking, even if the soldiers of the Song Army were not afraid, could their war horses not be afraid?

When faced with a frontal obstacle, horses often instinctively slow down or turn their heads despite the rider's control.

But soon, they found out why the Song army on the opposite side was able to rush straight over without slowing down, because they had already blindfolded their mounts and had no way to retreat!

The war horse can't see it, of course, it can only charge forward without a head.

Jin Jiang, who was at the forefront, gritted his teeth and said in his heart: Are these people crazy?

Then his eyes locked on Fan Zhuoyuan, who was rushing to the front, tightly grasped the spear in his hand, licked his lips, and showed a bloodthirsty smile.

As long as you kill this Song general first, you are not afraid that the morale of this group of Song troops will not collapse!

He roared angrily, and in the last thirty steps, powerful arrows shot out one after another from the Jin army, heading straight for Fan Zhuoyuan and the cavalry of the Xiaojie army.

The rain of arrows hit the crowd, but even if the bow is paired with an armor-piercing heavy arrow, it is difficult to cause effective damage to the heavy cavalry equipped with human and horsepower!

General Jin's eyes widened angrily, and the distance had been pulled into twenty steps!

There is no room for turning around on both sides in this distance, and it is a real narrow road where the brave wins!

He let out a roar of rage, and the man was almost half-standing on the stirrups, his weight pressed forward, and he handed the spear as far forward as he could.

Head-on impact, no weapon has more than a foot long to ride the wall practically, the thorn is always faster than the crackle!

His spear was already aimed at Fan Zhuoyuan's chest, as long as it came into contact, this Song Jiang who was dressed in armor would inevitably be pierced by a huge force, and he would die an extremely painful and miserable death!

was thinking about Fan Zhuoyuan's tragic death in his mind, but at this time, he was shocked to see the long knife in Fan Zhuoyuan's hand burst into a flash, doubling in length, and cracking down heavily with a bloody aura.

The knife snapped off the head of the spear, and as the horse thrust forward, the golden general felt a sharp pain between his chest and abdomen, and his upper body seemed to be fluttering as if in the clouds.

He reacted immediately, and the other party actually cut himself into two pieces with one sword!

As soon as his eyes showed horror, his body fell to the ground, trampled into flesh by the heavy cavalry of the Swift army that followed.

Immediately after Fan Zhuoyuan crashed into the enemy cavalry formation, the war horse neighed, the blade crackled, and the ten bloody battles were performed on the horseback, the power was not reduced at all, and the sword was hot everywhere, and more than a dozen people were cut under the horse in a row!

The horses of the cavalry of the Xiaojie Army were blindfolded, and they still rushed at a very fast speed, but the war horses of the Jin Army were not blindfolded, and when they saw that they were about to collide, their war horses instinctively resisted and continued to accelerate.

As soon as the speed was slow, coupled with the death of the main general, the morale of the cavalry of the Jin Army suddenly declined, and they passively greeted the cavalry of the Xiaojie Army who rushed like a wall.

The Jin army's arrows were killed by Fan Zhuoyuan, and the elite soldiers at the front were also scattered by Fan Zhuoyuan.

Next, they were forced to use a loose formation to deal with the dense formation impact of the Xiaojie army!

In an instant, a golden soldier had to face at least two lunging spears, and the spear in his hand in his hand was terrified, and he didn't even know who to stab at it.

But whoever he stabs, he will surely die!

The Jin army was brave, even though they knew that they would die, they still fought to the death, and for a time both sides fell countless times.

The formation of the Xiaojie army is dense, the losses are relatively light, the golden soldiers and horses have no armor, and the losses are even more tragic in the face of the armored Xiaojie army horses.
