Chapter 837 - 0832 [Soul is gone]
Pucha Huzhan turned over his horse with a strong will, and the elite soldiers who had followed Yan Lou's room also behaved as if they were dead at this moment.
But!
Ten minutes ago, the soldiers who had just been replenished to Puchahuzhan were a little hesitant to mount their horses.
They are also considered elite, and were formerly subordinate to the Bolu fire.
Now Bo Luhuo is recuperating in Shangjing, his three sons have been killed by the Ming army, and the rest of the heirs are still minors for the time being. Last night, it was Bo Luhuo's nephew who commanded the army, and he was killed in the attack on Li Yanxian, and some of the remnants of the army were replenished to Pucha Huzhan to gather 1,000 men.
They really didn't dare to fight anymore.
Even if he wiped out one or two tribes in the northern desert, it would only force more tribes to join forces against him.
If the military power is gone, sooner or later it will be death.
There was a sound of horses' hooves in the south, the Jin soldiers were terrified, and the Ming army cheered and shouted.
In order to march in a hurry, the Ming army not only did not bring a chariot, but also a giant shield. More than 200 casualties had been inflicted one after anotherβmost of them wounded but not dead, and the infantry formation remained unmoved.
Finally, a Jurchen officer fled on horseback, and more and more soldiers fled.
Shi Jianu returned to Beijing to recuperate, and the two generals Yelu Ma Wu and Wo Lu were killed in battle. The heirs of the three inherited troops, all of whom suffered heavy losses last night, and the remnants of the troops were temporarily assigned to the unified command of the sudden and united forces.
He drove away the enemy cavalry with a sudden halt and a sand separation, while shooting arrows as he passed around the formation, and even fired his gun sideways in front of the formation. Pucha Huzhan followed behind, leading a thousand elites to charge the enemy formation!
The tired Jurchen soldiers, riding tired war horses, rushed towards the equally tired Ming infantry.
The so-called core elite can no longer be called elite.
They concentrated a little of the charge, sent two hundred horsemen in front, and made four consecutive charges.
Immediately afterwards, hundreds of Jurchen cavalry followed one after another.
And what about Wanyan Zonghan?
"Take care!"
They are also the remnants left behind by Jerumawu, and the friendly army does not care if they directly surrender to the enemy, what are they staying for? Even if this battle is won, he will definitely no longer be trusted by Wanyan Zonghan.
Yue Fei sent a personal soldier and ordered: "Guide them back to the rear of the infantry formation, dismount and remove their armor to watch the battle." β
The Ming army once again fired with bows and crossbows, causing more casualties to the Jurchen cavalry than the Ming army had just suffered.
The escape from the battle has become the last straw that breaks the camel's back.
Tuhesu, the Jin State Clan, the general of the Shi Family, once slaughtered tens of thousands of Song soldiers guarding the pass in Shanxi.
A few years ago, many people died in the battle with the Bolu fire, and several generals under their command were replaced.
Tuhesu was shocked and angry, although these Khitan cavalry, although they had just been incorporated into his command, how could he tolerate his troops to surrender to the enemy? immediately led the army to chase and kill the past.
Another Jurchen general, Sha Lizhen, was sent by Wanyan Zonghan to fight against Xu Qing.
More than 20 Ming pikemen were knocked over on the spot, and several pikemen were knocked down by cavalry pikes.
It was impossible to win the battle, and the reinforcements of the Ming army arrived, and no matter how high the prestige of Wanyan Zonghan was, he couldn't suppress it!
Wanyan can go to Mongolia to live together, but Wanyan Zonghan can't.
Seeing that he couldn't disrupt the big array, Wanyan Zonghan changed his tactics.
The next few teams of Jurchen elites did not dare to rush hard, and they fled around the formation after shooting an arrow, and were chased by the steppe cavalry who came to shoot arrows.
A team of Jurchen soldiers chased after them, killed a quarter of the deserters, and was called back by Wanyan Zonghan.
Even if he successfully escapes back to Shangjing, he will be relieved of his military power by the Jurchen nobles - those guys hate him to the core.
It was completely defeated, chased and killed far away from the battlefield, and don't think about coming back with the whole team for a while.
But Wanyan Zonghan's prestige in the army is too high, and the military law is very harsh. These soldiers who had supplemented Pucha Huzhan did not dare to raise objections at all, and they could only fight hard.
He was notorious in Mobei, and no Great Khan dared to take him in at ease, fearing that he would become the second Yelu Dashi.
"Surrender, surrender!"
Tuhesu continued to lead the troops to charge and kill, and when he ran to the front of the formation for more than ten steps, he rode and shot at the Ming army's large formation - his task was to shake the Ming army's large formation and create an opportunity for Pucha Huzhan to forcibly charge the formation.
The fifth team of Jurchen elites was thrown by Ming archers on the way to charge. Although there were not many casualties, they were already frightened, and they slowed down before they could rush to the front of the formation, and then pulled their bows and arrows and swept past the formation.
The morale is too low to rush into battle......
The impact on the scene was extremely tragic on both sides.
Under the repeated charges, more than 2,000 steppe cavalry were defeated.
Li Yanxian went around collecting wounded horses and pack horses, and after receiving the news that Yue Fei was asking for rapid reinforcements, he immediately asked pikemen, crossbowmen, and firecrackers to ride horses for reinforcements.
Wanyan Zonghan said to the more than 800 personal soldiers around him: "Those who are willing to fight to the death with me will fight together today." ...... who want to stay alive Run away. β
They continued to shoot arrows at the Ming army with crossbow shots, and they were accompanied by a series of feints.
This time, the Jin soldiers no longer directly faced the Ming infantry, but scattered out to drive away the annoying steppe cavalry, as well as those Ming cavalry who had already entered the battle.
Historically, this person was one of the slain breeders.
He didn't dare to go back to Liaodong, nor did he dare to go back to Shangjing, and planned to run away to the Mongol Great Khan Hebule. I can't care about my family or anything, anyway, I have an eldest son by my side.
Yelu Dashi still has at least the righteousness of the Liao State, as long as one or two tribes are subdued by force, the rest of the tribes will nominally submit to obedience.
"Boom, boom!"
Wang Yan's infantry arrayed powerful crossbows in unison, and even mixed with the Divine Arm Bow.
Pucha Huzhan did not go directly, so the decisive battle must wait for the opportunity.
"Rush to speed, you go and disrupt the enemy formation!" Wan Yan Zonghan ordered.
The Jurchen war horse rushed to the spear forest, and no matter how the owner urged, the war horse automatically slowed down to save his life. But he still couldn't contain the momentum, and even the men and horses slammed into the spear.
"Don't shoot arrows!"
Wanyan Zonghan was about to give the order to block the attack, when suddenly another Jurchen general fled.
It was the Khitan cavalry left behind after the death of Yelu Ma Wu. Because of his loyalty and bravery, he was used by Wanyan Zonghan as a descendant, and his military salary was comparable to that of the Jurchen elite.
Such a strict military law was actually commonplace at the beginning of the Agu fight. After slashing a few times, everyone in the Jin soldiers fought to the death.
Others can escape, but he has no way out.
Such a way of playing has deviated from Yan Zonghan's combat intentions.
Otherwise, the impact will continue, and the infantry formation of the Ming army will definitely be rushed out.
"All the troops are attacking!"
Just when the Khitan soldiers surrendered to the enemy in front of the formation, there was also a Khitan soldier on the flank of the Jin soldiers, who fled to the north regardless of the madness.
The morale of the army is disheartened!
The soldiers under the command of the sudden combination speed at this time have a more complex composition of troops. There are the old departments of Shijianu, the old departments of Yelu Mawu (Khitan soldiers), and the old departments of Wolu.
Last night there were a lot of casualties, and the breath left in my chest had been exhausted when I recaptured the grain and grass.
More than a dozen Jurchen cavalrymen were shot through the iron armor and died.
He wanted to take advantage of the unstable foothold of the Ming infantry and the exhaustion of the Ming infantry to immediately fight to annihilate the Ming army.
At this moment, there were dozens of horsemen under the command of Tuhesu, and they suddenly rushed to Yue Fei's side.
Wanyan Zonghan's heart tightened, he knew that it was over. The core troops of the Jin country, who are the most brave and good at fighting, were so frightened that they did not dare to rush into battle, and the souls of the Jurchen warriors were gone.
Without waiting for Wang Yan's order, the officers in the front row were already directing to fill their positions.
But it was a huge blow to the morale of the Jin soldiers!
The horn of the Chinese army of the Jin soldiers was great, and the sudden combination of speed finally held back his anger and led the troops to retreat to the main force of the Jin soldiers. His tail was bitten by Yue Fei all the time, and he only got rid of it after throwing down more than thirty rides.
The horn sounded again, and the Jurchen cavalry was called back as a whole team.
Wanyan Zonghan laughed miserably: "What can I do when I go back?" β
The voice fell, and no one dared to leave.
There are more than 300 Jurchen soldiers who chose to stay and accompany Yan Zonghan to die together.
The steppe cavalry ran away with a few arrows, but this time they ran in a very orderly manner. Yue Fei allowed them to run and shoot arrows, but they were not allowed to impact the friendly army's large array when they fled, otherwise they would be treated indiscriminately with a strong crossbow.
They used armor-piercing arrows, and this distance was the most powerful cavalry shooting, and twenty or thirty Ming troops were immediately shot through the armor. Fortunately, the Ming army did not suffer many casualties, but only wounded.
But now that you spend time entangled with the enemy cavalry, the enemy infantry will be able to take the opportunity to recover their strength.
Yue Fei retreated while fighting, leading his troops to pass in front of his own phalanx.
Wanyan Mouyan persuaded: "Marshal, let's go, it's too late if you don't leave." β
Even Wanyan Mouyan felt that he would definitely lose today. But he didn't dare to dissuade Yan Zonghan, so he could only observe the battlefield situation at any time, and once the situation was not right, he would lead his troops to escape.
Wanyan Hezhu took hundreds of Jurchen cavalry and fled frantically towards the north.
Who wants to die in a defeated battle?
Then, Wanyan Zonghan sent all the troops out, leaving only his own personal soldiers as reserves. On the opposite side of the Ming army, nearly a thousand horsemen did not move, causing Wanyan Zonghan not to let his own soldiers fight.
When he sent people to burn the grain and grass of the army, he only let people cut two knives on the war horses and pack horses, and he didn't have time to kill all the horses.
He can also take the remnants of the soldiers and kill Wu Qimai to stand on his own. However, the remaining Jurchen troops in Shangjing will inevitably flee back to their tribes, and it is impossible to serve him as the master. It is even possible to join forces to fight him and kill each other in Shangjing.
"Wang Gui, you lead the steppe cavalry to meet and guide General Li's troops to occupy the enemy's granary!" Yue Fei ordered at the first time.
"Fifth team, all cut! Whoever dares to disobey military orders again will end up like them! β
"Woohoo!"
Wanyan Zonghan hurriedly ordered: "Blow the trumpet, let Tuhe come back quickly and the whole team, and if you chase him again, you will fall in!" β
But it was Wanyan who fled with the troops, and this old guy was from the Jurchen of the Hosu Pavilion. Not only was his hometown captured by Zhu Ming, but his clan soldiers also died not much. Most of the troops in his hands are trained Jurchen slaves - these Jurchen slaves were freed earlier, so they are still very loyal.
The rest were the dead.
There were still troops in the follow-up, who had abandoned artillery and baggage, and rode mules pulling carts to this side.
The sudden speed and sand detachment charge had already induced the Ming army to launch the divine arm bow. This charge of Puchahuzhan caused the Ming army to shoot the enemy with ordinary bows and crossbows.
Wanyan Zonghan laughed miserably: "It's not a lie to deceive you, if you want to live, run away quickly." β
Even those generals felt that they should not be killed indiscriminately.
After Yan Mouyan finished speaking, he turned around on horseback, and the old troops left by his father followed.
But the same thing is happening now, but it makes the Jurchen soldiers resentful.
The Khitan officer leading the troops shouted, dropping his spear to the ground, and then throwing away the iron bones and saddle axes. The dozens of Khitan cavalry under his command also made the same move, apparently having been discussed before going into battle.
But it was the Jin soldiers who attacked Li Yanxian last night and lost many troops. Wanyan Zonghan was in a hurry to come back to save food, and a large number of spare war horses and pack horses could not be taken away.
During the charge, the Jurchen cavalry continued to fall.
At the moment when Yan Mouyan left, Wang Yan and Yue Fei issued military orders at the same time.
After several teams of grassland cavalry were scared away, Xu Qing went around to the side to shoot arrows to harass, and Yue Fei led his troops to shoot head-on with Tuhesu.
The two generals of the sudden combination speed and the sand detachment, and the whole team continued to rush and kill.
In fact, there were not many Khitan soldiers who defected to the enemy and fled, adding up to less than 200 people.
However, he saw that Tuhesu stepped forward with these mixed troops, and it was the steppe cavalry who came to meet him in front.
They all came from small Jurchen tribes and did not have any noble blood. Purely based on military exploits to obtain promotions or rewards, even ordinary soldiers were given good land and serfs.
Wanyan Zonghan is their heaven, they are not loyal to the Jin Kingdom, but to Wanyan Zonghan.
