Chapter 337: Slow Cannibalization
With the issuance of Zhao Defang's order, the cavalry, which was originally passively beaten, suddenly reversed.
The cavalry ceased to be passively defensive and began to counterattack.
Zhao Yuanjun personally led the infantry to charge and rushed straight to the Dragon Bone Canyon.
"Damn, the cavalry of the Song army is too cunning, and they actually want to contain our cavalry by counterattacking and let the infantry charge!"
"I'll just say, how could the cavalry of the Song Army in the past become so strong in such a short period of time."
"Damn, how could they learn the art of cavalry so quickly?"
The Jin Wuwei soldiers looked at this scene and instantly thought of the reason.
They believed that it was the cavalry under Zhao Defang who learned the skills of cavalry use in battle, so they became so powerful.
Only in this way can it be in line with common sense.
Otherwise, the cavalry of the Song Army in the past would definitely not have the combat effectiveness they have today.
"Heralds, crossbowmen, pikemen ready!"
Zuzande also understood this, so he immediately gave the order.
"Bang bang!"
The Jin Wuwei soldiers began to set up their crossbows and aim at the charging Song cavalry.
Immediately, the overwhelming sharp arrows galloped towards the Song army.
In the face of the sharp arrows of the Jin Wuwei soldiers, the cavalry of the Song army did not dodge or dodge, and let these sharp arrows fall on their bodies.
These arrows, while very penetrating, were not a great threat to well-trained, iron-clad cavalry.
When Lu Bu had just formed the Qingzhou Army, he had been attacked by the sharp arrows of the Jinwuwei soldiers.
They didn't even blink their eyes, and let the arrows fall on them.
It's just that there are a large number of these sharp arrows, and even if the cavalry armor is strong, it is impossible to completely block them.
Every cavalryman of the Song army was covered with arrows.
Rao is now, it is impossible for the cavalry team to continue to move forward, and the speed has dropped significantly.
"Hahaha, good chance!"
Looking at this scene, Zuzande couldn't help but laugh.
Although the losses were somewhat severe, they were bought time.
As long as they can secure the defense, they will win!
"Order, the crossbowmen shoot immediately, and don't let the enemy rush over!"
Zuzande immediately ordered the crossbowmen to shoot.
Countless sharp arrows were fired at the Song cavalry.
"The shield hand raises the shield to block, and the sword and shield soldier replaces!" Seeing this, Zhao Yuanjun immediately ordered.
"Yes!" The shield-bearer immediately responded.
The shield blocked the impact of countless sharp arrows.
"Kill!"
The sword and shield soldiers who cooperated with the shield bearers of the Song army also shouted one after another, meeting Jin Wuwei's crossbowmen.
"Damn, their infantry actually started to fight back!"
"Retreat, retreat!"
When the Jin Wuwei soldiers found that the Song infantry had begun to counterattack, they were immediately frightened and immediately ordered the troops to retreat.
The counterattack of the infantry of the Song army made the soldiers of Jin Wuwei dare not stay at all.
Although the infantry of the Song army also paid a great price, at least the pace of the Song army increased a lot.
Soon, the Song infantry was getting closer and closer to the enemy camp, even two hundred meters away.
"Kill!"
Zhao Yuanjun's eyes were red, and with his cavalry, he rushed into the enemy camp, looking for enemy soldiers and slaughtering.
The other infantrymen also followed behind Zhao Yuanjun and fought into the Dragon Bone Canyon.
Inside the Dragonbone Canyon, there are corpses everywhere.
The soldiers of the Song army fought in the Dragon Bone Canyon.
Blood stained the ground red, and the strong smell of blood filled the air, making it feel disgusting.
Zhao Defang and Zhao Yuanjun looked at the blood and corpses all over the ground, their hearts beating violently, but they forced themselves to calm down.
"Quickly sweep away the enemy camp!"
"Pass the order, and those who surrender will be exempted from capital crimes!"
"If you resist, kill them all!"
Zhao Defang and Zhao Yuanjun gave orders.
"Kill!"
When the soldiers of the Song army heard the words of Zhao Defang and Zhao Yuanjun, they immediately lifted their spirits and rushed into the enemy camp.
Soon, under the ferocious offensive of the Song army, the Jin Wuwei soldiers were defeated and retreated.
……
"Report, general, the infantry led by Zhao Defang has captured our camp in the Dragon Bone Canyon!" The adjutant general hurriedly walked in and said.
"Hehe, it's a lot faster than I expected." Zuzande's contemptuous smile appeared on his face.
Zuzande is very clear about the combat effectiveness of the Song army.
According to the normal situation, the cavalry of the Song army must be unable to resist, and the whole army will definitely be wiped out in the end.
But what Zu Zander didn't expect was that this time the Song army under Zhao Defang would burst out like a beast's combat effectiveness, dragging down Jin Wuwei's infantry and winning the victory from the enemy's camp.
This is an acceptable result.
He knew that the Song army was fighting under the grievances of the army, so that it could burst out like a beast.
But he was also worried, worried that a beast like Song Jun would have a great impact on them.
After all, the combat effectiveness of the Song army was too ferocious, which made Zu Zander a little jealous.
He was also worried that the infantry on his side was no match for the Song army.
Fortunately, Song Jun's bestiality has limits.
As long as the infantry on his side can block the Song army's charge, even if the Song army's beast performance breaks out, it will not be able to turn over the waves in the end.
"Order, the whole army is arrayed to prevent the Song cavalry from chasing after breaking through the camp!"
Zuzande gave the order to prepare the army for defense.
"Yes!"
The lieutenant immediately responded and turned to leave.
A moment later, Jin Wuwei's 50,000-strong army formed a formation and waited for the arrival of the Song cavalry.
It's just that they didn't wait too long to see the Song cavalry galloping in the distance.
"Humph! Come on, let me see just how ferocious your fighting power really is! ”
Looking at the arrival of the cavalry of the Song army, the corners of Zuzande's mouth flashed a hideous smile.
"Shoot the arrows!"
Immediately after, Zuzande ordered the crossbowmen to release their arrows.
Woo Woo Woo ~ In an instant, sharp arrows flew in the sky, shooting at the Song cavalry who were running.
"Poof!"
"Poof!"
The arrow pierced into the body, splashing a little bit of blood.
The screams of the Song cavalry kept ringing out.
However, the scream only lasted for a moment before it disappeared.
Because these cavalry of the Song army, when the sharp arrow was about to shoot their body, they pulled out the long sword at their waist and slashed at the sharp arrow.
The arrow was cut off and fell to the ground.
"Hiss~"
"This, is this cavalry of the Song Army really human?"
"Is it a monster?"
Seeing the terrifying performance of the Song cavalry, those Jinwuwei soldiers widened their eyes and showed horror.
They never thought that humans could be so powerful!
"How is this possible, how can Song Jun be so powerful!"
"It's over, the cavalry of the Song Army is so brave, we can't resist it at all!"
Zuzande was also stunned.
He never thought that the cavalry of the Song Army would be so powerful!
However, he quickly came back to his senses: "Pass my order, order the soldiers to attack with bed crossbows!" ”
The bed crossbow is a siege machine, and it is definitely the king of the battlefield in this era.
"Yes!"
Jin Wuwei's bed crossbow soldiers immediately picked up the bed crossbow.
"Put!"
Zuzande roared and ordered the bed crossbow soldiers to release their arrows.
Buzz!
Suddenly, the sharp arrows in the sky attacked the Song cavalry rushing over again.
Rumble!
The sharp arrows instantly surrounded the cavalry of the Song army.
No matter how the cavalry of the Song army dodged, they couldn't dodge the arrows and shoot them.
"Ahh
The screams kept ringing out, and I don't know how many Song cavalry had died under these sharp arrows.
"Kill all the Song army and capture the Song army generals alive!"
Zuzande shouted angrily.
The Jin Wuwei soldiers immediately seized the opportunity to kill those Song cavalry.
"Shoot the arrows!"
The Song infantry also seized the opportunity, bent their bows and arrows, and shot those Jinwuwei soldiers.
It's just that in front of the Song army's foot soldiers, those Jin Wuwei soldiers are like little sheep, and they can't stop the footsteps of the Song army's foot soldiers at all.
In just half a pillar of incense, the soldiers of the Song army were almost unharmed.
Only those ordinary soldiers or their families were unlucky, and they died heavily under the charge of the cavalry of the Song army.
"No, we must retreat!"
When Zuzande saw this, his face was extremely gloomy.
Although the Jinwuwei infantry still has an advantage, the advantage is too small.
If they continue to fight, they are afraid that their soldiers will be exhausted.
This was a huge problem for Zuzande.
So, he decided to retreat immediately.
Immediately, he said to the guards next to him: "You lead the rest of the soldiers to go first, and I will be behind!" ”
The guard nodded in response: "The last general obeys!" ”
He understood Zuzande's thoughts, which was to buy him time to escape.
"Brothers, kill, destroy Jin Wuwei!"
Zhao Zhiyi roared excitedly, carrying a spear in his hand, and led the cavalry to kill Jin Wuwei's soldiers.
During this time, they are under extreme pressure.
Today is finally a chance to have a good fight, and naturally I am very excited.
"Kill!"
The cavalry raised their long knives and slashed into the ranks of the Jinwuwei soldiers.
The combat effectiveness of the Song army was more violent than that of the infantry of the Song army.
Those Jin Wuwei soldiers, where were the opponents of the Song cavalry, were killed by the Song cavalry and fled in embarrassment.
"Bastard!"
Zuzande looked at this, and he was furious.
What is the situation with this Nima, his 50,000 soldiers are powerless in front of the cavalry of the Song army.
"General, let's hurry up, otherwise when the Song cavalry catches up, you will also be in danger!" The lieutenant next to him persuaded.
Zuzande shook his head and said, "If I leave now, won't I let others laugh at me Jin Wuwei for being a guts bandit!" ”
"This ......," the lieutenant said.
But he didn't dare to speak.
After all, Zuzande is the governor of Jinwuwei and has a high position.
If you annoy him, you will definitely suffer from it.
"Command, attack!"
Zu Zander took a deep breath and said coldly: "Ben Shuai wants to see what means those Song army barbarians have to make them so arrogant. ”
"Yes!"
The adjutant general answered the call and went down to deliver the order.
Zuzande commanded in the rear, but his eyes were always on the front.
After seeing that the Song army finally defeated its own soldiers at the cost of more than 2,000 cavalry.
Zu Zand's eyes narrowed slightly, and he sighed secretly in his heart: "Damn Song army barbarians, there are still such elite cavalry, I would have known that I would have brought more foot soldiers over and wiped out these Song army cavalry!" ”
However, he was not a fool, and understood that it could not be violated, and immediately ordered: "Withdraw!" ”
He had already seen clearly that his soldiers had no power to resist in front of the cavalry of the Song army.
If you stay, you will be looking for death.
So Zuzande chose to lead some of the soldiers to retreat, and the Song cavalry paused to catch their breath, they had just experienced a fierce battle, the consumption was too great, and they needed to rest.
Zu Zande would not miss this opportunity, and the rain of arrows flew towards the cavalry of the Song army.
When the cavalry of the Song army found out about this situation, they hurriedly organized shield bearers and pikemen to block in front of the carriage, and the dense crossbows and crossbows crashed against the shields and spears, making a loud noise.
At the same time, Zuzande drew his saber and rushed towards the Song cavalry.
"Hmph, if you want to sneak attack my Song army cavalry, you are still far away!"
Seeing this, Zhao Yuanjun sneered: "Crossbowmen are ready to meet the enemy!" ”
He knew that Zuzande wanted to break through the defenses, and as long as he held him back for a moment and waited for the army to arrive, he could defeat him.
As the order of the generals of the Song army was conveyed, the surrounding crossbowmen all aimed at the charging Zuzande, and the sky feathered arrows were shot, directly blocking Zuzande's route.
Zuzande's face changed drastically, and he hurriedly dodged, but he was slow, and he was still shot in the body by several feathered arrows, but fortunately, his armor defense was strong enough to not be fatally wounded.
"Withdraw!"
Ignoring the pain, he hurriedly ordered his soldiers to leave.
He knew very well that if he was still here, death would await him.
He didn't want to die before he had enough of life.
"Want to escape?"
Zu Zande's plan is naturally not to hide from Zhao Defang.
The corners of his mouth drew a sneer, and he shouted: "Cavalry, charge!" ”
"Kill!"
When the cavalry of the Song army heard the order, they urged their mounts to lower their crotches and quickly chased in the direction of Zuzande.
"Damn it!"
Zuzande saw that the cavalry of the Song army actually ran with him, and his face was extremely ugly.
He knew that he was planning to trick the Song cavalry into chasing him, and then take the opportunity to kill the enemy.
But now the cavalry of the Song army is chasing and killing themselves.
"Withdraw, withdraw!"
Zuzande no longer hesitated, and immediately led his soldiers to retreat.
It's just that he forgot about the cavalry of the Song army, and his favorite thing to do was to chase and kill. Especially when the cavalry of the Song army had an absolute advantage.
The cavalry of the Song army easily caught up with the infantry led by Zuzande and launched a massacre.
In just a moment, the soldiers around Zuzande were all broken, even the corpses were chopped up, and blood flowed everywhere.
"Retreat, retreat!"
Zuzande shouted in terror, trying to get out of the Song army's pursuit.
However, his strength is not as good as the cavalry of the Song army, so how can he escape?
Zhao Defang urged the war horse under his crotch, chased and killed the past, holding a sword, and stabbed Zu Zande in the chest.
In Zuzande's round eyes, the sword pierced through his chest.
Zuzande gripped his horse's belly with his legs between them, struggling desperately.
His horses are just mortal things, how can he get rid of Zhao Defang, who is skilled in riding.
Eventually, Zuzande's body fell into the dust.
His dying eyes were full of unwillingness, remorse, and even resentment, and he regretted that he was greedy for merit and rashness, which led to such an ending now.
After the Song army killed Zuzande, they did not hesitate at all and continued to pursue and kill the fleeing Tubo soldiers.
"Dashuai, if you don't find any trace of Master Nagarjuna and the Buddha's head, they may have run away!"
Zhao Yuanjun came to Zhao Defang and said.
Zhao Defang frowned slightly: "Don't worry, they don't have the slightest ability to resist now, they can only hug their heads and run away, and they can't escape from our Song army's territory after all." (End of chapter)
