Knowing that the entire army of Diagonal Ali was annihilated, Jin Wushu was furious, and immediately ordered all the horses in Qingzhou City to pour out of the nest to find Xiao Ming's Tiger Guard for a decisive battle, but he ignored one point, that is, how the five thousand cavalry of Diagonal Ali were completely annihilated, only from the dozen or so war horses that ran back, there seemed to be no explanation.

But before he found Xiao Ming, Xiao Ming had already come to look for him, ten miles away from the east gate of Qingzhou City, the Tiger Guards set up camp and found someone to give Jin Wushu a war letter, the meaning was very simple, telling him that he was facing the army of the former King of Dongdan in front of him, and ordered him to withdraw from Qingzhou within two days, otherwise he would come here in two days for a decisive battle, and surrender if he was afraid.

This is undoubtedly a slap in the face to Jin Wushu, it seems that Xiao Ming wants to provoke him, and Jin Wushu is indeed angry, and vows to crush Xiao Ming's Tiger Guards into powder, but Jin Wushu also has a military advisor by his side, and a Wanyan Guru who has dealt with Xiao Ming!

The military advisor Ha Michi persuaded: "The four wolf lords are angry first, I heard that this Dongdan king is very difficult to mess with, even the big wolf lord Sticky Han and the second wolf lord have been defeated in his hands, this person is my Dajin's number one enemy!" The four wolf lords should not be underestimated! ”

Wanyan Guru also said: "That's right! At the beginning, I followed the two wolf lords to attack Liaodong, and the plan that I had painstakingly prepared for a long time even captured him, but I still let him escape, which shows that this person is very cunning! ”

Jin Wushu had also heard of Xiao Ming's deeds, and he asked, "Are you talking about the red-eyed God of War who was rumored to be the reincarnation of the Thunder God?" ”

Ha Mi Equator: "That's right, it's this person!" ”

Jin Wushu gritted his teeth and said: "But he issued a war letter, if we are cowardly, won't it become the laughing stock of the Great Golden Kingdom?" ”

"The four wolf lords don't have to be angry, they must be beaten, but be careful, I heard that he doesn't have many people, and there are only a few thousand people camped in the east of the city, but I always feel that he is playing tricks, so we have to keep an eye on it to see how many of his actual troops are!"

Jin Wushu nodded in agreement, and as a result, he sent thousands of scouts to reconnoiter within nearly thirty miles to the left of the Tiger Guard, except for finding that there was a baggage force of more than 10,000 people behind the Tiger Guard, there was no extra army, which not only puzzled Jin Wushu, but also underestimated the enemy's heart again!

Ha Mi frowned and felt puzzled, and after he asked Yan Hu Guru in detail, he hurriedly found the Golden Vulture and said to him: "Four wolf masters, the weapon used by the other party is strange!" It is a very sharp projectile weapon, which can easily penetrate the leather armor protection, and their cannon is also very sharp, please be more careful with the four wolf masters! ”

Jin Wushu said: "My red-clothed iron horse itself is the establishment of the abducted horse of the Dajin Kingdom, but unfortunately I didn't bring the heavy harness this time, but there are a lot of iron armor with me, at least it can ensure the attack protection of 10,000 people in the front, but the protection of the horse is weak, but since it is a projectile weapon, they also need to find the right head when the war horse is galloping?" ”

"But how do you defend against their cannons?"

"Destroy their artillery positions with light cavalry assaults, you forgot that we once captured his cannons, those heavy guys need to be fixed to a special special position!"

Ha Michi praised: "It is worthy of the four wolf masters, it is really thoughtful, we will definitely win this battle!" ”

The whole army of Jin soldiers went out of the city and set up a position outside the east gate, preparing for a decisive battle with the Tiger Guards, and then looked at the formation of the Tiger Guards, it was simply a project, twenty paces away from the position was dug by the Tiger Guards two five-foot-wide ditches, up to four feet deep, outside the two tripping ditches in front of the formation, they themselves dug a two-foot shallow ditch, and trimmed into a firing position.

The frontal firing range should ensure three layers of firing lines, that is, horizontal, squatting, and standing! The position is layered, to ensure the safety of the flanks, the three regiments are now under unified command, but there are three separate commanders, the commander of the first regiment Han Shizhong, the commander of the second regiment is Yelusha, and the commander of the third regiment is Zhang Bofen! Zhang Zhongxiong is currently in the baggage unit of the New Guard.

The three regiments coordinated with each other, that is, all the mortars and infantry guns were hit at the rear of the position, and they were all under the command of Xiao Ming! , that is to say, Xiao Ming commanded all the artillery of the Tiger Guards, of course, including Qian Baguang's artillery battalion, and they carried six rapid-fire steel cannons of one hundred and fifty caliber this time!

These six cannons are hidden at the back of the entire formation, and the fan-shaped distribution of bullet impact points can cover the range of 200 steps in front of the Tiger Guard's position, Qian Baguang has long been busy with his shirtless work, this guy is very strange, as long as he lets him shoot artillery, he can't give money!

Since they are facing a decisive battle, then this unified form of combat is the purpose of Han Shizhong and others' key learning, they don't need to take too much responsibility, they only need to observe and issue the order to fire, according to Xiao Ming's meaning, they have not felt the melee effect of musket weapons at close range, how to lead the army in the future? That means that they will be asked to lead troops in the future.

A hot air balloon that could only be one person was raised behind the Tiger Guard, and there was a Tiger Guard scooping a monocular as an observation post, and he was also an observer for the artillery to mark the firing range.

Xiao Ming ordered everyone to cheer up, Jin Bing is here, that is, to prepare for battle! The herald quickly and nervously waved his arms, waved the red and blue flags, and conveyed the message to the front of the position, and Han Shizhong and others, as front-line commanders, immediately ordered to prepare for battle.

Jin Wushu with more than 27,000 men and horses pressed up, this army is a strictly trained kidnapping horse cavalry, not to the real wartime, no one wants to always wear such a heavy iron armor, let alone put on iron armor for horses, so they are generally a light cavalry way to march.

Since crossing the Yellow River, after a few battles, the Song army does not even have the basic cavalry, and there is no need to put on heavy armor again.

But today, under the strict order of the Golden Vulture Technique, more than 10,000 people still put on iron armor to protect their chests, backs and helmets, but the horses do not need to wear iron armor, because they are not brought at all, so it is okay, the weight of the horses is still a little smaller, otherwise people and horses will not be able to stand the hot weather.

Jin Wushu saw the formation of the Tiger Guards from a distance, and it was all infantry, which was strange enough, and what was even more strange was that the other party was sweating like rain digging a ditch on the ground, and carefully hiding in the ditch, he couldn't help but really look down on the Song army, and Xiao Ming was just like that.

"When the horse charges, don't say that the ditch is five feet wide, the ditch of about one zhang is jumped over, what can that kind of earthen ditch block?" Jin Wushu pointed to the ditch dug by the other party and pouted, "The Song people are all cowards!" ”

Once again, the Golden Vulture underestimated the enemy, and Ha Michi reminded him, "Four wolf masters, be careful of their cannons!" ”

Jin Wushu nodded and made the following arrangements, he asked Wanyan Guru to lead five thousand men and horses, with the fastest speed to seize the slope on the right, if there is no miscalculation, the opponent's cannon must be hiding somewhere, after destroying all their cannons, Hu Guru will lead people to rush down from the flank, to assist the cavalry charge in front.

Wanyan Guru took the order and left, but at this time, Xiao Ming came over on a horse with a big banner of Song characters! After he stood still, he shouted loudly: "Finish Yan Zongbi! Come out and speak! ”

As soon as Jin Wushu saw it, he picked up the reins of the horse and rushed out with a Xuanhua big axe, he thought that Xiao Ming was here to call the battle, but Xiao Ming ignored him, and still shouted behind him: "Jin Wushu!" Come out and speak! ”

Jin Wushu's qi rushed upward, and he shouted, "Bah! Lao Tzu is the perfect face vulture! Where do your dog's eyes look? ”

Xiao Ming glanced at him and said, "You are the Golden Vulture?" A bearded face is not hygienic! Your son was defeated in my hands, and today your boy is also here to die? ”

Jin Wushu said angrily: "How about I come to take your dog's life today and avenge the Jurchen warriors?" ”

Xiao Ming laughed, and he said to Jin Wushu: "Since I have dealt with your Jin Kingdom, I have never lost once in your hands, and I will not lose today, you go back and tell your uncle Emperor Taizong, Shandong is Lao Tzu's territory, you can't come, and if you come, you have to get out!" In the future, Liaodong, I will also take it back, you let him be careful for me, my Xiao Ming's territory is not so easy to occupy! ”

Jin Wushu rolled his eyes and said: "King Dongdan has great ability, but why do you want to work for that Zhao Song Xiao'er, it is better to submit to our Dajin Kingdom, I believe that His Majesty the Emperor will definitely crown you as the king of one word and shoulder to shoulder!" ”

Xiao Ming waved his hand and said: "It's not uncommon, as for why I'm in the Great Song Dynasty, that's my business, I don't have time to explain to you, I brought a little more people today, I'm afraid I'll kill you all, you go back and think about it, give you a cup of tea, either retreat, or rush up to die, anyway, I'll fulfill you!" ”

Jin Wushu said angrily: "You have repeatedly insulted the Jurchen warriors of my Dajin Kingdom, do you really think that with a few cannons and a few thousand people, you can defeat my 30,000 cavalry?" ”

"Can you, just give it a try" After saying this, Xiao Ming turned his head and left, and a sentence floated in the wind: "It's time for a cup of tea!" No more! ”

He had succeeded in provoking the Jin Wushu, but he was not sure that the other party would take the initiative to attack, after all, the Tiger Guards adopted a defensive warfare, and if it turned to an offensive war, it would not be able to achieve the intention of annihilating the Jin soldiers south of the Yellow River.

After the golden vulture went back, he did not rashly launch an attack, a cup of tea time passed, and the Jin soldiers did not start to attack, which made Xiao Ming a little worried, according to the habits of the Jurchens, they generally adopt the tactics of attacking first with two wings and then breaking through head-on, so Xiao Ming reminded the Tiger Guard Regiment to pay attention to the movements on both sides.

As soon as the flag was played, the sound of people shouting and neighing came from the slope on the right side of the Tiger Guard's position, and the observation post set up by the Tiger Guards was attacked by the golden soldiers.

The sound of Jin Bing's shouting and killing shook the sky, mixed with the sound of rumbling horses' hooves! This did cause some commotion for the Tiger Guards, but they quickly calmed down, and the two trenches along the flanks were the targets of the mortar positions in the camp, but it was the infantry guns that fired first!

/>

Under the formation of a regiment, there will be a company of artillery equipment, and now the infantry guns that concentrate the artillery fire of a battalion have reached more than a dozen. A large cloud of dust and smoke enveloped the cavalry of the charging Jin State.

The shouts of killing and the rumbling of cannons were the signal for the attack, and the Golden Vulture adopted such a tactic, and after Yan Gulu first attacked the flank of the Tiger Guards, he officially let the cavalry press up on the front! "Knock knock ......!" In the sound of war drums, tens of thousands of cavalry pressed up from the front......
