Chapter 510: The Jurchen is dead
Then, through the intention of infantry division, he wanted to divide the steppe cavalry into several pieces, and then use the cavalry to charge the formation to counterattack.
They even used all sorts of war weapons, trebuchets, bed crossbows, tripping horses, and so on...... Wanyan Zongwang and the three of them are worthy of being the gods of war of the Jurchens.
Their strategy was very successful, and the 20,000 men in the vanguard of the steppe cavalry were directly caught in the trap, and in almost a quarter of an hour, nearly 1,000 were lost.
It's just that this is a plain land, and their strategic intentions and strategies are indeed very good.
If it was in a favorable terrain, the steppe cavalry would really be able to defeat them, but unfortunately, they forgot the strength of the steppe cavalry's mobility.
At the moment when the 20,000 cavalry fell into the trap, the commander Tuo Lie quickly changed his strategy, and he sent another 20,000 cavalry to attack the Jurchens from both flanks.
With the addition of the two wings, the Jurchen cavalry finally felt the horror of the steppe cavalry, and after a few rushing kills, the Jurchen army collapsed directly.
Even if Wanyan Zongwang and the three tried their best to stabilize the situation, in the end it was in vain, and in the end, the three of them were also beheaded in the battle array. The steppe cavalry at the cost of losses of 30,000 people.
Defeated 200,000 Jurchens and beheaded 150,000 enemies, the steppe cavalry did not leave a living mouth, as long as it was the Jurchen army on the battlefield, they were all ruthlessly killed by them.
The remaining 50,000 Jurchens fled directly. Originally, they still wanted to hold on, but unfortunately, the horror of the steppe cavalry made them desperate and afraid.
Since then, the entire Jurchen army has been almost killed by the steppe cavalry, and there are still more than 100,000 Jurchen troops guarding Kyoto, as well as those Jurchen troops who are still scattered around the Jurchens.
The steppe cavalry began to attack the Jurchen Kyoto, and when the 300,000 cavalry of the steppe arrived at the Jurchen capital, although there were still more than 100,000 defenders in the city.
But the Jin Emperor was already desperate, but the Jin Emperor still had some backbone, leading more than 100,000 troops to defend the city, wanting to fight the grassland cavalry to the death.
With the high walls of Jurchen Kyoto, he held back the steppe cavalry for nearly fifteen days.
Although the steppe cavalry charged very strongly, it was obviously a little difficult in siege warfare. Even if there is a lot of siege equipment.
But the Jurchen army, which wanted to capture the desperate defense of the city, still suffered some losses, and the steppe cavalry besieging the city lost nearly 30,000 people. This battle also set the steppe cavalry on fire.
Originally, as long as the Jin Kingdom Kyoto held out for a while longer, or it could make the steppe cavalry retreat. After all, the steppe cavalry could not afford it.
Their logistical supplies are a little tight, and if they continue to consume them, they may be delayed and retreated due to logistical supplies, which may lead to the defeat of the war.
But at this moment, the group of surrenderers of the Jin State secretly sent people out of the city and contacted the commander of the steppe cavalry, Tuo Lie. In the middle of the night, someone secretly opened the city gates.
The steppe cavalry then attacked the capital of the Jin Kingdom, and the Jin Emperor was hacked to death in the bed by the steppe cavalry who came in.
Since then, the Jurchens have perished, and after the steppe cavalry entered the Jin country of Kyoto, they launched a seven-day massacre, and most of the Jurchens and other races in the city were slaughtered by the steppe cavalry.
Under the brutal slaughter, the entire Jurchen and other cities were directly frightened, so as long as the steppe cavalry came to attack the city, all the cities would surrender.
At the same time, when the steppe cavalry attacked Jurchen Kyoto, Jiang Chao already knew.
After knowing this, Jiang Chao convened a military meeting, although Jiang Chao scoffed at what the Jurchen envoy said, but he also knew that this truth was true.
After the destruction of the Jurchens, the next thing was Huaxia, and those cavalry in the grassland, in Jiang Chao's previous life, swept the whole world.
Their ambitions are by no means limited to a Jurchen.
Moreover, after the fall of the Jurchens, the steppe cavalry should want to destroy the Khitan after the restoration of the country. This is the regime propped up by Jiang Chao.
Jiang Chao didn't want to watch the other party let the steppe cavalry be wiped out so quickly, after all, Jiang Chao was already preparing to use Yelu Yunyan to merge the Khitan tribe into Huaxia.
When he learned that the steppe cavalry had begun to attack the city, he had already sent 100,000 troops to the Khitans.
And this time, almost all the guns equipped with the latest equipment have been replaced by the latest equipment. In addition to owning the Makqin, there are also guns from the AK series.
This is also a modern army, the first time it has fought with the ancient cavalry, and it is still the famous steppe cavalry in the previous life. This is the existence that once swept the world.
Just when the subordinate army galloped to the aid of Yelu Yunyan, the capital of the Gao Dynasty on the other side ushered in the subordinate army, and the 110,000 subordinate army faced the strong city in front of them, their eyes were full of indifference.
On the wall of the capital of the Gao Dynasty, Li Xiaocheng, the new emperor of the Gao Dynasty, stood at the head of the city, looking at the 100,000 children in front of him, although his eyes were full of jealousy, but he also showed a look of excitement.
According to the information from his subordinates, the army was only 110,000 people, but they now had nearly 400,000 defenders in the city.
The entire Yangping City, defended by 400,000 troops, can be described as impregnable, if at this time, their 400,000 troops go out of the city together, I am afraid that just the number of people can crush the 110,000 dead army outside the city.
Even if the weapons of the subordinate army are very advanced, Li Xiaocheng has not seen it, and he thought that it may be that his soldiers are afraid of death and the army's morale is unstable, which led to the final rout.
It's just that just when he was about to pour the whole city's troops and directly encircle the 110,000 children outside the city. But I saw that the boy had launched a person in front of the formation.
It was Li Chengkui, who was escorted to the front of the battle by the army. When Li Xiaocheng saw that his father was still alive, his eyes were full of shock and dismay, as well as a look of joy.
"Emperor Gao is here, if you want Emperor Gao to live, immediately open the city and surrender. Otherwise...... Emperor Gao will be beheaded on the spot...... To emulate the ......"
Nan Mingtu shouted at Li Xiaocheng on the city wall.
On the city wall, a group of courtiers and generals of the Gao Dynasty saw this scene, their eyes were full of shock and panic, and they didn't know what to do for a while.
In front of him is the new emperor, and under the city is the old emperor. Whether you save people or not depends on the new emperor's own choice. If the new emperor is unwilling to save people, even if they want to, it is useless.
Moreover, if the old emperor returns, the new emperor will have to abdicate. Faced with the temptation of imperial power, who is willing to give up.
Just when the courtiers of the high court looked at Li Xiaocheng, they saw Li Xiaocheng pulling a bow and shooting arrows.
The long arrow pierced Li Chengkui's heart in an instant, and the fierce sting and death made Li Chengkui unable to believe that this was true.
His own son would kill him.
"Father, we can't gamble on the national fortune of the entire Gao Dynasty for you, don't worry, I will defend the Gao Dynasty for you!"
