Chapter 542 Bali Bridge (3)

"Fake, all fake, those flying balls and golden dragons are just some Song people's tricks.

Don't kneel, all of them will get up for me, all the soldiers will listen to the order, if there is still kneeling around me, all of them will be hacked to me on the spot~"

Like a madman, the puppet emperor of the Jin Kingdom was begging for money, brandishing a bloody golden knife in his hand while roaring wildly in his mouth.

Saying! When I saw the position of the Song army on the opposite side, a total of twelve big balls were rising, and they had just begun to rise from the ground.

Wanyan Wu begged to buy this goods, based on a beast-like battlefield intuition, and felt a big bad feeling in his heart.

Soon after, wait until the twelve large balls rise straight into the air at a height of hundreds of meters; When the sun shines on it, the dragons in various forms above suddenly seem to come to life and begin to dance in the air.

Frankly speaking, at that time, this person claimed to be the Son of Heaven and a puppet emperor incarnated by a dragon in the world.

At that time, I was also frightened, my legs were shaking, and I wanted to pee.

It's no wonder that this thing is too cowardly, it is completely a carbon-based life of human beings, and there is an instinctive fear of such an unknown and incomprehensible scene in front of me.

The difference is that when you see a large number of people from your own side, you can see them under the color of the earth.

On the spot, he knelt on the ground and kowtowed like pounding garlic, and his fighting spirit was complete.

Some of the other personnel just didn't kneel, and their legs trembled badly, and even many of the Jurchen warriors also knelt on the ground and chanted words in their mouths.

After Yan Wu begged to buy a spirit, he reacted in an instant.

I am clearly aware that this situation cannot be allowed to continue to ferment.

Otherwise, if this battle had not started, the army of their own side would have completely collapsed due to the sharp drop in morale, and their Dajin Kingdom would be defeated in this war that was related to the fortunes of the country.

Then the situation annihilated the country and the people, and so on and had some terrible consequences.

Thinking of all the above powers, in today's weather of only seven or eight degrees, Wanyan Wu Qimai was scared out of a cold sweat.

At the same time, the original fear of seeing balloons and flying dragons in my heart was immediately suppressed.

When the goods looked to the side, they just saw a dozen paces away, and a subordinate guard actually turned over and dismounted, kneeling on the ground and kowtowing.

Wanyan Wu begged to kick the war horse hard, and rushed forward like this.

In this process, they made actions such as drawing knives and slashing, and immediately cut off the neck of the guard from behind.

Let a human head full of complex expressions such as fear and confusion and incomprehension suddenly roll out of the way.

In fact, Wanyan Wu Qimai also understood that the population of their Jurchen clan was originally not large, and many people came out of the old forests of Black Mountain and Baishui.

Under the difficult environment, these people have enough advantages such as being savage, not afraid of death, and strong in combat, but they also have the disadvantages of not seeing the world at all.

Especially for such a miraculous scene, there is no resistance at all.

It's just that understanding is understanding, but it still can't stop him from shouting out the murderous order at the beginning, 'All those who can't stand on their knees will be killed'.

Under such an order, the guards and ministers around Wanyan Wu Qimai were the first to react.

After thinking about the consequences, they were also scared into a cold sweat and acted quickly.

Repeating loudly in unison, at the moment of the order 'all those who kneel on the ground will be killed', the knives and guns and other weapons in their hands were all shot out in unison, and twenty or thirty people were hacked to death at once.

And with the orders and movements here, it quickly spread to the surrounding area.

While one unlucky guy after another was killed on the spot, more golden warriors who originally knelt on the ground, the fear of death in their hearts immediately overpowered the fear of unknown scenes.

They got up quickly, until no one else fell to their knees.

But even so, even after standing up, many people still had a look of fear on their faces; Obviously, their fear of the unknown is not easily relieved in this way.

Seeing this, Wanyan Wu Begging's mind was spinning rapidly, and he already had an idea.

Another sentence roared out of his mouth: "Great shaman, has there ever been a way to break the demon law of the Song people~"

After hearing this, an old man with a thin figure and a well-dressed body, that is, the Jurchen shaman who accompanied the army, immediately used a hoarse voice.

In a very confident tone, he replied:

"Your Majesty doesn't need to worry, after we cast a spell, we will naturally be able to let the gods protect my Dajin warriors without being affected by the demon magic of the Song people~"

After that, he took dozens of characters in the same costume and danced in public.

All kinds of strange magic weapons in his hands, as well as spell-casting things such as 'black dog blood', 'woman's riding cloth', 'boy urine', and 'big rooster', also appeared one by one.

As for these shamans accompanying the army, what is the specific role of the god of dancing in public?

There are only a few, but only a few.

When the Jurchens saw this, the panic on their faces immediately improved a lot; Whoever calls them the current belief is still mainly to worship various gods and mountain gods.

But even so, these people still can't recover to the high fighting spirit they had at the beginning.

Seeing this, the tension on the faces of the other Han people, Bohai people, Liao people, and Xi people in the north was also slightly better.

But they don't believe in shamanism very much, and the effect is naturally far inferior to that of many Jurchens.

In short, the role of the hot air balloon is far better than that of Hu Biao and them, and the situation that was initially expected is much better......

The scene that happened in the above golden team naturally fell into the eyes of those people in the hanging basket of the hot air balloon, holding a telescope in their hands.

Such a complicated situation is naturally impossible to explain clearly to the people below in simple flag language.

But it's not a big problem, and there are other means.

The lookouts quickly took the charcoal pencil and wrote it down on a piece of paper, then stuffed the paper into a large bamboo tube and threw it underneath.

There are some hot air balloon support personnel below, who are always keeping an eye out for movement above.

Naturally, it will be picked up and delivered to the hands of the relevant personnel.

So soon after, Hu Biao learned about the current situation that the great god was dancing on the side of the Jin people through such a means of transmission.

It was also at this time that I happened to see one who had just been under his command.

The heralds of the rocket artillery division who ran away were already in a hurry to return.

Immediately, he opened his mouth and asked: "What does the warehouse manager say, how long will it take for the rockets to be launched, and whether they can hit the Jurchen area where Wanyan Wu begs to buy." ”

When the herald heard this, he immediately replied in his mouth:

"Returning to Hu Xianggong, Xianggong said that half of their rockets have been installed and debugged, and they can be launched at any time.

The other half can also be launched again in two or three minutes.

It's just that those Jurchens are too far away from the launch position, and although some of the rockets should be barely within reach, the killing effect will not be too good. ”

After hearing this, Hu Biao sighed secretly in his heart.

In view of the good effect of the rocket washing in the first battle of Zhuxian Town, when preparing for the Northern Expedition, where would Hu Biao not invest more energy in this aspect?

To this end, they specially formed a rocket artillery division, which is more professional in operation, not to mention.

The model of the rocket was further improved, so that it was more powerful and had a longer range.

What's more critical is that the specific number is much more than when Zhu Xianzhen only had more than 300 rounds during the First World War.

Through the efforts of a total of three workshops and more than 4,000 workers working day and night, as well as the full cooperation of various departments, the supply of raw materials is limited.

At the time of the departure of the Northern Expeditionary Army, the latest rockets of this kind were carried by the team with a total of 4,210 rounds on the cart.

And that's not even counting until two days ago.

Yu Yunwen's naval fleet finally caught up with the footsteps of the army all the way; In addition to a large amount of grain and other materials, more than 3,000 rockets were loaded into the fleet.

Therefore, a total of 7,000 rounds of reinforced rockets were continuously hailed out in a short period of time.

That scene and lethality are completely worth looking forward to by Hu Biao and others.

Hu Biao and they are all ready, in this battle, all these rockets are greeted to those Jurchens, and they can be regarded as coming to fight snakes and seven inches.

It's a pity that Wanyan Wu begged to buy this product is really too chicken thief.

After absorbing the experience of the first battle of Zhu Xianzhen, the large army of their Jurchens was deliberately placed behind, and the distance from the launch position was more than 15 miles.

So much so that if you use it now, the effect will not be too good.

Otherwise, taking advantage of the effect of the hot air balloon, and then facing the Jurchen army with a rocket to wash the ground, the opposite side can be directly defeated.

But if you attack the trash fish, it will also have an excellent effect.

The problem is that most of the Jurchens' strength is still there, and this battle is won, but the casualties are estimated to be very large.

Based on the above considerations, Hu Biao thought about whether to launch rockets to wash the floor for a while, and then he completely had an idea: not to launch it first.

Since the Jurchens are hiding behind now, then let's beat them out.

With such a decision, Hu Biao issued a new order: "Pass the order, implement the No. 3 battle plan of A, and take the initiative to attack~"

That's right! It was the Great Song side, whose number was only one-half of the opponent's, that took the initiative in this battle.

According to the so-called A-3 battle plan, which has been issued a long time ago.

Under the banner of the Chinese army, the officers at the grassroots level blew the iron whistle on their mouths, and the military musicians beat a string of drums.

To be more specific, the troops of the New Army on the left and right flanks formed a phalanx that could support each other and began to move forward in a neat manner.

The same is true of the artillery assigned to them.

Only those miscellaneous soldiers from all over the Great Song Dynasty temporarily stood still as a support force.

Here in the Chinese army, there are two infantry divisions of the new army and 10,000 Yuejia army personnel, plus an artillery division, which also formed a large and small battle formation to advance.

The rest of the personnel, including the cavalry of 7,000 men, were all used as battlefield reserves.

Even the Yanshan Divine Army in the north began to take the initiative to march towards the Jin people; The difference between them and the Northern Expeditionary Army is nothing more than that they mainly use cold weapons, so the battle formation is larger.

Counting, a total of 1440,000 people, taking the initiative to attack an opponent who has more than four times as many people.

Seeing this, even if Wanyan Wu Qimai knew that the morale of his own personnel was far from recovering, he still issued an order to fight.

Let the left and right flanks and the Chinese army, those cannon fodder troops.

Pushing a large number of shield carts, movable eight-bull crossbows, and small and medium-sized double-bow bed crossbows, these combat equipment took the initiative to meet them.

It's not that they don't want to fill in all the troops in one go.

On the one hand, there is limited space on the battlefield, and there is no way to pile all the troops on it.

On the other hand, after suffering enough from the firearms of the Song people, the Jin side had already noticed that when fighting, the formation should not be too dense......

******

In the case of footsteps, horns, scolding, whips, tin whistles, drums, neighing of cows and horses, these strange sounds are intertwined.

The combat units of both sides are constantly approaching each other.

However, before the two sides fought on a large scale, an artillery battle began between the two sides; A special artillery battle between cold weapons and hot weapons with the characteristics of a traverser.

In order to deal with the artillery of the New Army of the Great Song Dynasty, or after suffering losses, the tactics of artillery were imitated.

Although the process of imitating the cannon was not smooth, after some hard thinking, Wanyan Wu Begged to buy and ordered people to hurry up and build hundreds of ballistas, intending to wrestle with the Song army.

Today, it is such a tactic, and it is time to reflect how effective it is.

When the two sides moved relatively slowly because of the need to cooperate with the artillery troops, the personnel of the two sides were finally about four miles away.

The artillery phalanx on the side of the New Army stopped their pace, and after quickly building up one running position, the 24-pounder and 12-pounder guns, which had the longest range, were the first to fire.

If it's the target, it's the ballistas in the pile of gold.

Suddenly, in the midst of the loud cannon sound, hundreds of thick projectiles beckoned towards the Jin side; But only two hits smashed the ballistas to pieces.

Is the gold side on the side? Keep going, of course.

Because at such a distance, they do not have the slightest means to counterattack their opponents.

Even if it was built by a group of Great Song Dynasty craftsmen who were captured from Kaifeng City at the beginning, the maximum range of the eight-ox ballista that could move was only three miles.

Therefore, driven by their officers and overseers, they can only move forward head-on.

Finally, after another round of shelling, the ballista troops on the Jin side also stopped.

The operators began to work hard to fix the wheels of the ballistas with wood, and many of them began to wind them with all their strength, even with the strength of their mules and horses.

The crossbow arrows, which were three or four meters long and had iron arrows, were quite powerful at first glance.

It's a pity that at such a time, among the Great Song Artillery Divisions, the 8-pounder guns and 6-pounder guns with the largest number of guns also joined the process of firing.

These 8-pounder and 6-pounder iron cannons, after lengthening the barrels, can reach a range of just three miles.

What's more, although their caliber is not large, they can still pose a considerable threat to the artillery units of the Jin people.

When almost three hundred small-caliber guns joined such a process of firing.

The density of artillery fire on the Great Song side increased by more than three times at once.

Moreover, under the coordination and command of the junior officers, a group of artillery commanders often formed a batch of three guns and fired at a certain ballista at the same time.

Greatly increased hit rate, as well as lethality.

Under such a fatal attack, the ballistae on the Jin side's side were often still being loaded, and they were directly reimbursed.

While the ballista was reimbursed, the shells that continued to roll and the sharp wood chips that flew down also put down a large number of people on the side.

It's just that no matter how powerful the artillery on the Song side is, it can't solve the numerous ballistae on the Jin side's side before they open fire.

After enduring the Internet and completing the loading, the Jin side also had more than 300 rounds of crossbow arrows to greet the artillery on this side.

There were about twenty of them, and they were roughly accurate in their call to the gun emplacement, after knocking over the shield-holding guards.

The ballista continued to move forward, and it continued to shoot through some of the crews before stopping.

There were even seven or eight shots that hit Napoleon's guns, knocking them all off or overturning.

It's a pity that these ballistae fired at the maximum distance can only produce such an impact force, which is not enough to destroy the thick barrel made of all-steel.

Therefore, after the Jin people's ballista was hit by a shell, it was immediately scrapped.

After the cannon of the Song army was shot, it was nothing more than the substitute personnel who immediately filled it up, lifted and straightened the cannon again, and was able to fire again.

Under such an unfair battle, the ballistas on the Jin side's side were rapidly decreasing one after another.

Soon after, there were less than a hundred left; If it weren't for the fact that behind every ballista, there was a Jurchen with three hardcore traitors as overseers.

Those operators are afraid that they have already run away.

However, even so far, those operators are gritting their teeth and continuing to reload and fire, but I personally know that the artillery units on the Jin side will soon be wiped out.

After seeing such a scene, Wanyan Wu begged to buy this puppet emperor, and sighed very weakly.

There is a matter of how his own ballista can't beat the artillery of the Song people, and of course he is quite aware of this.

Because he originally thought that the use of ballista firing could somewhat restrain the time and energy of the Song artillery troops; It's just that the well-built ballista unit was defeated so quickly.

Such a feeling suddenly made him feel so powerless.

It was a feeling that he was completely crushed in terms of equipment, and he tried his best to imitate it, but he couldn't do it, and even made him a little desperate.

It's just that things have come to the current point, what can they do but grit their teeth and fight to the death?

For this reason, he turned his attention to the infantry troops who had already begun to engage in battle.

After a while, this puppet emperor was a little helpless to find that the infantry army that had just risen to the top was also suppressed badly, and he was about to be defeated......
