Seeing the Jin army enter Fangshan, Liu Qi sneered and ordered: "Change horses!" ”

Hearing this, a group of cavalry dismounted one after another and changed into a war horse.

Now the cavalry of the Qingzhou Army, one person and three horses, seems to be one less than before, but these three horses are all genuine war horses.

The three war horses take turns to change, and they can change horses to meet the enemy anytime and anywhere.

"Break the enemy!"

Liu Qi roared, grabbed the horse's belly between his legs, and rushed towards the Jin army first.

The cavalry behind him immediately followed, forming a horizontal formation.

Compared to the more penetrating Blade Array, the advantage of the horizontal array is that it has a large killing area and is not easy to be surrounded by enemy forces.

However, the horizontal formation is rarely used, and it is only occasionally seen when chasing and killing the rout.

The reason is very simple, in an era when the popularity of heavy armor is so high, once the foot soldiers open the formation and form a shield wall, the horizontal formation will not be able to rush into it at all.

If you dare to charge with a horizontal formation, the end result will be to kill 800 enemies and lose 1,000 yourself.

The reason why Liu Qi dared to use the horizontal team was because the Jin soldiers were tired and tired, and after walking for a day and a night, they were afraid that they would not even be able to swing the knife.

What's more, there is also an ambush in Fangshan.

……

"Meet the enemy!"

Wanyan Zongwang roared.

Although the Jin army fled all the way, it was chaotic and did not disperse, and always maintained the military formation.

Once the cavalry has charged, it can quickly form a battle formation.

The 20,000 Jin troops were exhausted, endured the pain in their limbs, and began to form a formation to meet the enemy under the command of the Jurchen Overseers.

"Kill, !!"

Suddenly, a deafening shout of killing came from the rear of the Jin army.

Wanyan Zongwang turned his head to look, and his face suddenly changed greatly.

I saw that in the dense forest on the west side of the official road, countless Xuanjia troops rushed out, and there were 10,000 people.

"It's an ambush of Qingzhou thieves!"

Wanyan Yan's mother looked flustered.

Thundered!

At the same time, the sound of galloping horses was getting closer and closer.

The formation of 3,000 cavalry was extremely spectacular.

The branches on the horse's tail dragged on the ground, rolling up puffs of smoke and dust, as if there were thousands of troops and horses, carrying the majesty of the mountains and seas.

There were cavalry charging in front, and ambushes attacking and killing in the rear.

In an instant, the Jin army collapsed.

"Run!!"

The Liao Song army did not hesitate at all, dropped the blade and ran.

There are more than 20,000 Jin troops, and the Jurchen tribes are actually less than 3,000, and the rest are mixed Liao and Song troops.

These soldiers were chased like dogs for a day and night, and their morale was already low, but at this moment they were attacked from front to back, and they were completely frightened.

The military formation, which was barely maintained, collapsed in an instant.

Many of the True Overseers were knocked down by the routed Jin army and trampled to death.

"It's over!"

Looking at the scattered Jin army, a sense of pathos rose in Wanyan Zongwang's heart.

I think he finished Yan Zongwang joined the army since he was a child, followed his father to fight in the south and the north, and made many great achievements.

swept through the Liao State and quelled the rebellion, without tasting defeat.

I never thought that this time I went south, and I failed again and again.

In fact, a hodgepodge like the Jin Army, unless it can win all the way with a sharp spirit.

Once you encounter a strong enemy and lose a few times, collapse is inevitable.

In the original time and space, that is, the Zhao Song Taicai, it was too wasteful, but when the Jin people went south, the resistance was fiercer, and after a few fierce battles, the Jin army itself was torn apart.

The reason is very simple, one is that the time is too short, and the Jin army does not have enough time and means to effectively integrate the Liao and Song troops.

Secondly, the Jin State itself is a grass platform, a political and military structure, and a primitive tribal slavery.

Especially in the army, fierce security and restraint were still used, and the Jurchen soldiers often killed the Liao and Song troops and regarded them as slaves.

This can be seen from the sheep-holding ceremony after Jingkang's shame.

To put it bluntly, the Jin people at this time are barbarians who drink blood, although Ah Gudi ordered the nobles to learn Liao and Han culture, but in just ten years, what can they learn?

It took hundreds of years for the Liao Kingdom to gradually sinicize, and this is not complete.

Rumble!

The Qingzhou Iron Cavalry rushed into the military formation.

The horizontal formation of the three thousand Qingzhou iron horses showed terrifying lethality at this moment.

With just one face, more than 2,000 Jin troops died under the steel sword.

At the same time, the 10,000 ambush soldiers led by Nie Dong also fought with the Jin army.

Huang Kai was suffocated during this time, holding a phoenix-eyed knife, slashing left and right, brave and unmatched.

Under the front and rear attacks, the 20,000 Jin army was instantly dispersed, and Wanyan Zongwang broke through to the east all the way under the cover of thousands of Jurchen soldiers.

The rest of the rout, part of the army ran to the west, and the other part also followed the banner to the east.

After killing three people, Huang Kai's eyes were empty, and he was so angry that he scolded: "Straight lady thief, these dogs in the cavalry battalion are killing quickly!" ”

The corners of Nie Dong's mouth twitched, and he stopped talking.

This guy is stupid, completely forgetting that he himself is a member of the cavalry battalion.

Seeing the Jin army commander Qi heading east, Nie Dong shouted: "Don't care about the rout, follow me to chase and kill the Jin army commander." ”

What kind of naughty jokes, and the cavalry battalion that is in a horizontal formation to grab the battle merits, and the can't catch up with the heat.

If Yan Zongwang can be captured, it will be a great merit.

Huang Kai also realized this, and immediately led his soldiers to kill Wanyan Zongwang.

"Kill, !!"

The morale of the Qingzhou army was high, and their eyes were red.

Capture the flag, seal your wife and son, just today!

Nie Dong led 10,000 Qingzhou troops and chased them for nearly thirty miles, killing them from evening to late at night.

Along the way, rivers of blood flowed and corpses were everywhere.

Wanyan Zong looked at the war horse under him, and his mouth was already foaming at the mouth, obviously reaching the limit.

At this moment, the sound of the rolling river came to my ears.

It turned out that they had arrived at the Sanggan River.

As long as you cross the river, there are a few miles away, and you will be Yanjing City.

"Quick, find a bridge and cross the river!"

Wanyan Zongwang immediately ordered.

"Kill!"

How could the Qingzhou army let them cross the river, like crazy demons.

The golden army of organic spirits immediately unbuckled their armor and jumped into the boiling river.

When the rest of the Jin army saw it, they did the same and jumped into the water one after another.

For a while, under the bright moonlight, the surface of the Sanggan River was full of people.

"The golden dog suffers death!"

Huang Kai led his subordinates and was fighting with a Jurchen soldier in the palace.

The Jurchen soldiers who were cornered were like wild beasts, fearless of death.

Rao is as brave as Huang Kai, and he was also injured in many places.

"Du Shuai, I've found the bridge!"

Suddenly, a Jurchen soldier shouted.

Huang Kai couldn't understand the Jurchen language, but he could hear the surprise in the other party's tone.

"Oh no, the golden dog has found the bridge!"

Huang Kai shouted.

Hearing this, the Qingzhou army suddenly became anxious, and the steel knives wielded in their hands couldn't help but be a little faster, and the Jurchen soldiers they killed were defeated and retreated.

In a desperate situation, the Jurchens could naturally fight to the death, but now that they had a way to escape, the anger of seeing death as if they were at home was immediately discharged.

No one wants to die, no one wants to live!

Wanyan Zong looked at the group and took the lead in stepping onto the bridge.

Running all the way across the river, he ordered: "Cut the iron ropes!" ”

“……”

Wanyan Yan's mother wanted to speak and stopped, because there were still more than 1,000 Jurchen soldiers on the other side.

Seeing that everyone was stunned in place, Wanyan Zongwang shouted angrily: "What are you doing in a daze!" ”

This burst of applause made everyone come back to their senses in unison.

A group of guards gritted their teeth and brandished heavy axes and steel knives, slashing at the four iron cables that fixed the bridge.

Dangdang!

With a cacophony of metallic communication, sparks splashed everywhere.

But with a bang, the bridge broke and fell heavily into the water.

At this scene, not only the Jurchens were stunned, but even the Qingzhou Army was stunned.

"Supplement !!"

After a brief period of distraction, more than a thousand Jurchen soldiers roared heartbreakingly.

These Jurchens never thought that Wanyan Zongwang would abandon them.

However, in the face of their roars, Wanyan Zongwang and the others did not look back, and went straight to Yanjing City.

Huang Kai roared angrily: "If you don't leave any of them, kill them all!" ”

The duck to the beak flew like this, how could he not be angry?

Taking advantage of the Jurchens' stunned kung fu, the Qingzhou army slaughtered wildly.

In desperation, the Jurchen soldiers also began to jump into the river.

Bang bang bang!

For a moment, the water splashed.

Huang Kai was still puzzled, and ordered: "Crossbowman battalion, put on heavy arrows, and shoot Lao Tzu into the river!" ”

Soon, rows of crossbowmen came to the river, set up their crossbows, and aimed their crossbows at the river.

There are too many Jin troops in the river, there is no need to aim at all, as long as you pull the trigger, you will definitely be able to shoot.

Terrible screams kept ringing out in the river.

The clear water of the river was instantly dyed red.

……

But after saying that, after Yan Zongwang and the others fled all the way back to Yanjing City, they rested all night.

At dawn on the second day, he left in a hurry and went straight to Zhongjing.

Even though there are still seven or eight thousand elites in Yanjing, whether it is Wanyan Zongwang or Wanyan Yanmu, or Liu Yanzong, they all feel that Yanjing City can't hold it.

Firearms are too ferocious to be countered by manpower.

Early morning.

The banks of the Sangan River are still shrouded in the smell of blood.

In the river, there are corpses of Jin Jun.

Huang Kai sat on a corpse and munched on a piece of dry cake.

This dry cake was taken out of Jin Jun's corpse, and it was still stained with blood.

But Huang Kai did not dislike it at all, and he ate extremely sweet.

He had been hungry since noon the day before the fight, and last night he had been fighting fiercely for a long time, and his hunger made him panic.

The same was true for the other Qingzhou troops, looking for dry food to eat on the corpses of the Jin army along the way.

A piece of bread naturally couldn't fill his stomach, but there was something in his stomach, at least it was more comfortable.

Unscrewed the kettle and poured a sip of water, Huang Kai got up and came to Nie Dong's side and asked, "Du Shuai, what should we do now?" ”

Here, Nie Dong was directing the soldiers to repair the bridge, and said in a deep voice: "Wait for Liu Dutong, he should have the order of the county magistrate there." ”

As soon as he finished speaking, he heard the sound of horses' hooves roaring from a distance.

Not long after, Liu Qi led a group of cavalry battalions to the riverside.

Liu Qi turned over and dismounted, and asked, "How is it, can you catch Yan Zongwang?" ”

"Let the bird run away!"

Huang Kai replied sullenly.

Liu Qi looked regretful and said, "It's a pity." ”

Nie Dong asked, "Does the county magistrate have an order?" ”

As a commander, his vision is no longer limited to the victory or defeat of a war, but focuses on the overall situation.

Obviously, capturing Hebei and entering Gyeonggi is the top priority, and it is gratifying that Wanyan Zong hopes to be captured, but it doesn't matter if he escapes.

Liu Qi replied: "Besiege Yanjing, wait for the army to come, and recover the seven states in front of the mountain!" ”
