Chapter 791: Ambush the Tangut people
Alone in the mountains.
"Master Lu, here you have fought with Western Xia, let me introduce it to you!"
In the barracks, Sun Lei looked at Lu Zhishen and asked, Western Xia is a very mysterious country, compared with the Song, Liao, Jin, and Mongolia at the same time, there are too few things handed down from the party regime of Western Xia.
"Western Xia? Hmmm......"
Lu Zhishen hesitated, his eyes were a little trance-like, and he seemed to be stuck in a memory.
"The Western Xia army is divided into: the Shengjiao Army, the Zhonglang Army, the Iron Harrier, the Bubazi, and the Poxi Army."
"The raw capture army is the main battle infantry army, responsible for the main attack, because it captures the most, so it is called the raw capture army."
"Bang Zhong Lang is mainly a death squad composed of prisoners, and it is generally used to rush into the military formation and send them to death."
"Bubazi is good at going up and down the hillside, entering and exiting the stream, and is the best at going high and far, and is good at walking."
"The Poxi Army is a firearms army, but the Tangut people don't know how to build artillery, and the gunpowder relies on these Poxi Army."
"The Iron Harrier is the most elite cavalry in Western Xia, and the Jurchen Iron Floating Slaughter has the shadow of the Iron Harrier, and the men and horses are all wearing heavy armor. The horses are all good Hexi horses, and the armor is cold-forged armor. There are only 3,000 Iron Harriers, but these people are hereditary inheritance, tacit cooperation, high loyalty, and extremely strong combat power. ”
Lu Zhishen said slowly.
"There are so many Taos in the Western Xia?"
Everyone was surprised for a while, Xixia was not very strong in the eyes of the outside world, and it had been pressed and beaten by the Western Army over the years, but now when I heard it, I realized that it was not simple.
"Western Xia is actually not weak, all the people are soldiers, millions of people, and there can be up to 600,000 soldiers and horses, but for so many years, the harem and relatives have controlled the country, and several generations of emperors are puppets, and there are many internal problems, resulting in low combat effectiveness."
Lu Zhishen shook his head and said, the problem of Western Xia is internal.
"It sounds very powerful, but if the Western Army can fight, we can fight too!"
Sun Lei said with a smile.
In the northern mountains, a group of black-armored cavalry slowly advanced, and behind him was more than 20,000 infantry troops.
"Why are there still women?"
Sun Lei was holding a telescope on the mountain, looking at the Xixia people walking between the mountain roads, and frowned.
"There are really women!"
Yue Fei also looked at the telescope curiously, he couldn't put it down for the telescope, but as a baby, he found that Sun Lei always had something strange on him.
"Although the Tangut people are learning from our side, they are barbarian tribes after all, and the military system is that all the people are soldiers, similar to the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period, once the war breaks out, it will indicate the light and strong labor of the whole country, and men over 15 years old and under 70 years old must be conscripted into the army. In addition, there are a number of "makui" (strong female soldiers) in the army. ”
Lu Zhishen introduced.
"Those are the Iron Harriers? It's still a little different from the Jurchen Tiefutu! ”
Sun Lei pointed to the black-armored heavy rider at the front of the team and said, these iron harriers are all scale armor, and the iron float is a whole piece of armor, compared to the iron harrier will be more flexible, and the impact of the iron float will be stronger.
"This time, there are more than 10,000 elites! There are more than 500 iron harriers, it seems that the Xixia people are really preparing for a big war! ”
Lu Zhishen frowned and said, the Iron Harrier is the army directly under the Western Xia royal family, the Standing Army of the Western Xia is only 100,000, only 40,000 belong to the royal family, and the Iron Harrier is only 3,000, and the rest of the soldiers and horses are under the command of the leaders of the tribes.
"According to the predetermined plan, hit his cavalry with trebuchets first! Hit hard, and go straight! ”
Sun Lei looked at everyone and said.
The Tangut people moved forward slowly, and did not encounter the enemy along the way, which made the Tangut people even more arrogant, thinking that the Great Song Dynasty would be chaotic, and it was a good opportunity for them to fight back.
When the Western Xia army arrived at the gorge, the sky suddenly became overcast, and a huge cloud covered the scorching sun.
"Take advantage of the cool and march quickly, cross the Yellow River today, and enter the east of the river!"
Li Liangfu was happy in his heart, the weather was too hot these days, and the soldiers were staring at the scorching sun and marching very hard.
Without the scorching sun, the Western Xia army marched faster and directly reached the foot of the Duzhan Mountain.
"What's that?"
Li Liangfu suddenly stopped the army, and there were dozens of strange "cars" on the road in front of him!
The 30,000-strong army stretched out a long formation between the mountain roads, and although Li Liangfu's front army stopped, the team behind was still moving forward.
"Put!"
With a roar, the trebuchet came to the incident, the mountain road was narrow, the army was crowded in the middle of the mountain road, the trebuchet smashed a piece, and dozens of boulders instantly smashed the front army to death.
"Enemy! Take cover! ”
Li Liangfu's face changed drastically, and he immediately beckoned the army to dodge left and right, the lethality of trebuchets in this terrain was too terrifying.
"Shoot!"
Hua Rong immediately beckoned the crossbowmen to shoot, and the crossbowmen on the canyons on both sides directly opened their bows and shot arrows, and the Tanguts hiding below were shot over by arrows like scattered rabbits.
"Smash me!"
In the latter part of the Western Xia army, Sun An roared, and the recruits directly smashed huge stones and logs downward.
The instantaneous offensive made the Western Xia army chaotic, and they couldn't take care of each other.
"Where did the enemy come from?"
Li Liangfu's face changed greatly, he was safe and sound all the way, how could he get to the Yellow River and suddenly meet the enemy.
"Hit Zhong Lang gather, rush!"
Li Liangfu looked at the bell lang around him and shouted, there was no turning back in the valley, the trebuchet in front was blocking the way, and he had to rush away to break through.
"Walk up the mountain!"
Li Liangfu looked at the infantry in the rear and shouted.
At this moment, a rumbling sound sounded, and the valley was filled with the sound of wheels.
"What?"
Li Liangfu looked forward and saw that those trebuchets were actually rushed over by the war horses, and the shelves of the trebuchets had been transformed, and a circle was full of sharp knives.
"Kill!"
Lu Zhishen, Ji Sheng, Yue Fei, Lu Fang, and Guo Sheng followed closely behind the trebuchet with 3,000 cavalry, and they wanted to use the trebuchet to charge the battle and kill those who hit Zhong Lang to death.
"Kill!"
Wu Song, Shi Xiu, Zhang Qing, and Qiong Ying rushed down from the cliff with thousands of troops, killing those Western Xia Bu Bazi.
Wu Song waved his double knife, Shi Xiu rushed to kill bravely, Zhang Qing and Qiong Ying flew stones and bullets, and those who were good at crossing mountains and mountains were killed and retreated in an instant.
"Shoot!"
Hua Rong commanded the archers to continue to suppress the Tanguts in the valley.
"Kill me, don't leave a single one!"
Sun An, Tang Bin, Hao Siwen, Deng Fei, Ou Peng, Jiao Ting, Wen Zhongrong, and Cui Ye rushed from the rear with a large team of men and horses.
The trebuchet rushed directly into the Western Xia army, looking at the trebuchet full of sharp knives, where did Zhong Lang dare to block, they avoided it one after another, and the formation was directly knocked into chaos.
"Kill!"
Yue Fei took the lead, and with a swing of his spear, he went straight into the Western Xia army, and Lu Zhishen, Ji Sheng, Lu Fang, and Guo Sheng also led their troops to kill, killing a large number of Western Xia people in an instant.
"Kill me! Kill! Kill! ”
Li Liangfu's face was pale, and the shouts and killings echoing in the valley made his heart cold, now that the frontal enemy had rushed into the formation, he had really fallen into the enemy's encirclement, and under this kind of terrain, they had fallen into an absolute disadvantage, and they could only fight to the death.
