Chapter 435: No Advance or Retreat

Their formation also became denser and denser at this time, and those war horses and soldiers who rushed through the trap just rushed to the front of the Yuan Zhao army, and instantly let the spearmen on the opposite side pierce each other.

When Zong Han saw this scene, the anger in his eyes reached the extreme, the Yuan Zhao army in front of him was just a fish under his hands, and he was left to slaughter.

But who would have thought that at this time, their identities were reversed, and they became fish and meat, and they became slaughtered by the Yuan Zhao army. And the one who caused all this should be Jiang Chao of the disciple army.

Thinking of this, the killing intent in Zong Han's eyes was overflowing, and he couldn't help but want to look up to the sky and roar.

But before he could roar, suddenly, in the Yuan Zhao army opposite, a round of arrows shot over. Their cavalry fell in an instant, and wails rang out.

At this time, Zong Han found out because of the reason for their slowdown. They were all blocked in the gorge on this side, and under the rain of arrows on the opposite side, they became live targets.

Seeing this scene, Zong Han hurriedly said to the cavalry under him: "Go and cut the stumbling rope and give Ben Shuai close to the past." Hurry up ......"

At this time, it is impossible to rush over, the only way is to let the cavalry slowly approach, although there are many traps in front of you, but it is not impossible to pass.

As long as the war horse moves forward carefully, it can still be done. Moreover, they can cut off the stumbling rope even when they walk slowly.

Removing the stumbling ropes, their speed could also be increased, but in doing so, the cavalry in the vanguard would probably have to be sacrificed.

However, in this case, if there is no sacrifice, everyone will have to die here.

Hearing Zong Han's order, the cavalry in front did not hesitate and hurriedly approached forward, while the cavalry on both sides went to cut the horse rope.

Seeing this scene, Song Zhen's eyes showed a sense of consternation, if they were allowed to cut off the stumbling block, the advantage of the trap would be greatly reduced.

With a resolute look in his eyes, he hurriedly sent his spearmen to approach, and the spearmen were much more flexible than the cavalry who were restricted by traps.

The spearmen were timid, but they still rushed forward. Soon, they collided with the cavalry of the vanguard, and in an instant, hand-to-hand combat ensued.

The spearmen have an innate advantage in dealing with the cavalry that has lost their flexibility, even if they can't stab people, but under the stabbing horse, they can still lift the cavalry off their horses.

As soon as the battle was contacted, the cavalry was forced back, and nearly a hundred people died. But the gunners also lost twenty or thirty people.

However, the rain of arrows in the rear has not stopped, and the casualties of the Jurchens are still increasing, and they are equivalent to being blocked here for slaughter at this time.

This situation made Zong Han's eyes anxious, and at this time, he looked in the direction of both sides, but found that the canyon on this section of the road could not let the war horse rush up at all.

It's hard to even rush people, the slope is too steep, even if the distance is not high, it can't make them rush up to dodge.

Only then did Zong Han know why the Yuan Zhao army on the opposite side chose this terrain to intercept them. This means that he simply cannot take advantage of the cavalry.

Angry, Zong Han hurriedly let his cavalry rush forward again, even if it was a great price, he must open the road in front of him.

Otherwise, they're all going to die here. At the same time, he had his cavalry rush backwards to open the way for them to retreat at any time.

Zong Han is not dead-headed, when things can't be done, the best way is to be prepared with both hands. It's best to be able to break through, and if you can't break through, you have to retreat.

And after he gave this order, the cavalry in the rear began to rush towards the favorable terrain and towards the gorges on both sides. The infantry behind him was also ready to block the enemy on the gorges on both sides, preparing for the retreat of Zonghan.

Just as the cavalry on both sides charged upward, suddenly, a whistling sound drifted over their heads, and then, a loud explosion sounded in the dense cavalry group.

The moment the cannon rang out, Zong Han found in despair that his cavalry had fallen under the explosion in pieces. The casualties were devastating. Since they were stuck here, it was completely a situation of being left behind.

The cavalry that rushed forward fought fiercely with the spearmen of the Yuan Zhao army. The cavalry had to dismount from their horses because of the fatigue of their horses.

They abandoned the war horses. Prepare to fight to the death with Yuan Zhaojun. After they dismounted, they quickly reversed their disadvantage.

In the blink of an eye, they broke through most of the trap, but also lost nearly a thousand people. The cavalry that followed behind also gave up their horses. Rapid advance.

Soon, the Jurchens broke through in front of the military formation of the Yuan Zhao army, and the two sides fought together in the blink of an eye.

Although the trap ahead was useless, it also fulfilled their mission and blocked the Jurchen army there.

Otherwise, it would not have been possible for the artillery of the Sons Army to inflict such damage. After just a few rounds of shelling, at least nearly 10,000 people died in the Jurchen army. And that's only been less than a few minutes into the battle.

Such an injury can be described as terrifying. Zong Han was in the military formation, if it weren't for his guards desperately protecting him, he didn't know how many times he had died.

And his personal guards were heavily wounded. He looked angrily in the direction behind him, and then in front of him, and he could only prepare to rush forward with all his strength.

Later, Jiang Chao's attack was afraid that it would be more fierce, although Zong Han hated Jiang Chao to the core, but in this situation, he didn't dare to turn back and fight with Jiang Chao.

The only thing that can be done now is to break through the formation of the Yuan Zhao army and find a breakthrough from here. Wait until your men have covered the trap area.

Zong Han had his soldiers open a cavalry passage in the middle of the trap. And those stumbling ropes have all been cut off. The superiority of the cavalry can be shown again.

The Jurchen army advancing ahead was not afraid of death. Soon, the defense line of the Yuan Zhao army broke through one layer. The image of the rout of the Yuan Zhao army appeared.

And in the hills in the distance, Jiang Chao looked at the battle situation here from a distance and shook his head slightly. The combat power of the Yuan Zhao army is still too much worse than that of the Jurchen army.

Although their preparations were sufficient, the Jurchen army dealt with it very well, and even relied on their super combat power to turn disadvantage into initiative.

If this continues, once the Yuan-Zhao army is defeated, the cavalry of the Jurchen army will break through, and then, in turn, surround the Yuan-Zhao army.

But fortunately, because of the blocking of their traps, the Jurchen army was gathered together, and the artillery also achieved unexpected results.

By the time the Jurchen army completely broke through the defense line of the Great Zhao army, they would have lost at least nearly 30,000 men. Again, this was the result of artillery bombardment.

Under the head-to-head battle, between the Jurchen army and the Yuan Zhao army, I am afraid that there will also be casualties.
