Section 44 Rejecting the Horse

The leader of the Bohai people heard the sound of arrows and knew that there was a Song army here, but the Jin soldiers always despised the Song army, so he didn't care at all and asked the cavalry to come first.

Seeing the Bohai people's cavalry slowly approaching, the Song soldiers began to shoot arrows, and the formation of the Bohai people suddenly became chaotic. When they barely rushed to fifty steps away from the Song army, they became chaotic. Yang Ke shouted loudly and led his headquarters to rush out. He took the lead in fighting with the Bohai people, and took a shot to pick a small leader. The infantry under his command ran a few steps and fought with the Bohai people's cavalry.

Yang Kefa's infantry used two-meter-long spear, three people in a group to deal with a cavalry. The cavalry on the horses lost their momentum and were mixed with the infantry. One of them could not stop three spears at all. Soon, the cavalry teams were terminated. After the Song soldiers packed up the captured war horses, the infantry of the Bohai people came. Lu Zhishen led the people to rush towards the Bohai people like tigers down the mountain, and entered the Bohai people's queue like wedges.

When the Bohai people saw their cavalry fleeing, they were already panicked. They came at the urging of the leader and collided head-on with Lu Zhishen, the killer god, and were immediately defeated.

The people on the river beach witnessed this battle with their own eyes. Hu Yangeng rode his horse back, and the people immediately cheered.

"After the small enemy is gone, the great enemy is coming." After receiving the cheers from the people, Hu Yangeng turned around and said, "The order was sent to Bu Lu Gu Leping, Xuan Zan led his troops across the river, and Qiu Muling and Zhonglian were in charge of the camp."

It was late at night, and the boat was not safe at night, and the ferry on the river stopped. Today, more than 10,000 women and children had been transported across the river. Those who had not crossed the river had set up a fire on the river beach to keep warm and could barely fall asleep. Some masters rushed to work late at night, digging trenches, and laying fortifications. Hu Yangeng was not afraid of the Jin soldiers' sneak attacks at night. In the past, the torches were unreliable. If both sides were prepared, they were basically fighting for luck with weapons and exchanged more than one exchange. If the Jin soldiers wanted to fight at night, they would use the precious Tiefutu and the Song army to fight.

Sure enough, nothing happened overnight.

After a day and night of construction, the trenches outside the river beach have begun to take shape. The trees around the river beach have been cut down and made into horse-resisted fences. The tents of the Song army are scattered among the trenches, fences, and horse-resisted horses. Now there are 10,000 people across the river, so they rest in these tents. Hu Yangeng did not give the tent to the people on the river beach, because the Song army needs rest and faces the strong and tough Jurchen soldiers during the day.

At the time of Si, I heard a sound of arrows passing through the clouds again.

The war drums sounded, and the six Song troops took their positions. After the three-way drum, the spearmen entered the trench. The archer stood behind the horse and half-kneeled in the formation. The archer was at the end.

The people on the river beach witnessed a stop yesterday. Today, they were very peaceful and lined up in an orderly manner to get on the boat and prepare to cross the river.

At this time, the drums were ringing. However, the Song Bing was well-trained and knew that the enemy was coming. No one spoke in such a large army. Today's winter style was colder, with even greater wind and sand, and sand and stones hitting the armor and leather hat. The Song Bing covered his mouth and nose with linen cloth, squinted his eyes, facing the direction of the enemy, and waited quietly.

Suddenly I felt a slight tremor coming from the air. Slowly, even the earth began to vibrate. The vibration was dense and fast, and it was connected to the heartbeat of people, making people feel numb.

A row of black lines appeared on the ground from afar. The black lines suddenly became larger, and the Tiefutu, wearing heavy armor, had already launched a charge.

After the Bohai people retreated yesterday, they reported to Wanyan Nianhan. When he heard this, he was happy and angry. He was angry that there were Song soldiers who dared to cross the river to attack. He was happy that the Song soldiers who dared to fight were a minority. It was a good thing to be able to catch and eliminate them as soon as possible. Especially when he heard that there were thousands of Song soldiers who crossed the river, they would naturally be better than to interfere with the Jin soldiers crossing the river on the south bank. In order to prevent the Song soldiers from escaping, Wanyan Nianhan took out a big battle as soon as he made a move. He asked the kidnapped horse to charge and harass the Song army first, and then let Tiefutu directly attack.

The entire cavalry team raised their sabers, maces, flags fluttered, drums shook the sky, one of which was so fast that they rushed over from the gentle Hebei Plain, and were in a consistent pace like a person, and were as accurate as a city hammer. The smoke and dust brought by the horse's hooves buried the cavalry. Then the iron pagodas came out from the other end of the smoke and dust, and were still densely packed.

All the crooked horses were wearing leather armor and ghostly faces. They were fierce and fierce, and were calm and calm. The deafening sound of war horses galloping. The two cavalry formations swept over like layers of rolling huge waves. Opposite the huge waves, ten thousand Song soldiers were in the trench, waiting quietly after resisting the horses, only calm and calm, without speaking, without moving, and quietly waiting. They ignored the Jin soldiers, and the Jin soldiers' riders were narrow.

They were not seen behind the mask. They listened to the surging of the people. They heard the 1,600 thousand war horses galloping in the face, and the sound became louder and louder. They heard the rhythmic running of horse hooves, the sound of the sabers and the heavy and rapid panting. A terrifying silence. Suddenly, a long row of dancing maces, iron helmets, flags, and the whole horse's face seemed to suddenly rush in front of them... as if the sky was collapsed and the earth was cracked

A hundred steps in front of the Song army formation, there was a whole row of horse pits, forming a deep ditch. This deep ditch was half a foot higher than the side of the Jin soldiers, so that it seemed to be just a ridge to the Jin soldiers on horseback. The trench suddenly appeared, with a bloody mouth, hanging steeply under the horse's hooves. The second row of Jin soldiers pushed the first row, and the third row pushed the second row. The war horses stood back and fell to the ground, slid down to the sky, turning the cavalry to the ground. The team could not retreat, and the entire cavalry formation pushed people and horses to hit the horses, and rushed straight into the deep ditch. The ruthless rift would never give up until the corpses were filled. The cavalry and war horses were in a mess, rolled down the trench, trampled down each other to crush each other, and filled the corpses in the deep valley. When the rift was filled, the remaining people rushed over.

More than a hundred cavalry horses died here. What's even more serious is that the impetus that was originally intended to be exerted on the Song army was consumed in this deep ditch.

The Song soldiers began to shoot arrows, and the first one was the Divine Arm Bow. The iron clustered arrows directly pierced the armor, followed by the crossbow arrows. When the Jin soldiers rushed within fifty steps, the archers joined the chorus. The soldiers of the Song people were nine far away and one near, and almost everyone in the infantry carried a bow. For a moment, the arrows were like locusts.

However, this time, Nianhan sent troops and hoped to defeat the Song soldiers in one battle. Therefore, the Jin soldiers also used their best attacks. Although the first formation of crutches was hit, they rushed straight towards the Song army's formation. The cavalry first encountered a row of horses. This horse-rejecting formation was also a unique feature of the Song army. It seemed to be messy and had its own routines to echo each other. There were no Song soldiers behind the horses, but the three-meter-long horse-rejecting rifle was stuck on the ground, so the Jin soldiers' war horses did not dare to collide. They had to take a detour and move horizontally in front of the Song army formation.

The front team of Jin soldiers walked horizontally, and the back team was not aware of it and continued to rush forward. When the front team made way, they saw that the front team was a snatcher. The back team also moved to both sides. The entire Jin soldiers' cavalry team became in chaos. Some of them could not hold back the horses and bumped into the snatcher. The people shouted and neighed, and were soon covered by the sound of horse hooves.

The Song soldiers' arrow rain did not stop at all. In the past, the Liao and Song dynasties had been entangled for a long time, and the Liao soldiers knew that they would not fight. They only harassed the Song army with strict formations and rarely used heavy cavalry to rush forward. Since the Jin soldiers fought with the Song soldiers, they were invincible and looked down on the Song army. This time, the Song army was against the water again, which violated the military strategy. There were still tens of thousands of people behind them. The Jin soldiers were preparing to defeat the Song army in one fell swoop, and then robbed the people on the river beach.

But I didn't expect that the Song army on the river beach would be so difficult. Among the Jin soldiers, there were warriors holding five strands of sky-holding forks in their hands, and one fork was on the crossbar of the horse, trying to overturn the horse. He shouted loudly, "Get up!"

The Jin soldiers wanted to pick the horses fork, but he used his whole life's strength to keep the horses moving. It turned out that the wooden stakes that supported the horses were firmly nailed to the ground.

The Jin soldiers were really eye-catching. More than a dozen arrows came straight towards him, most of which were blocked by iron armor, and only one particularly long feathered arrow was strong and penetrated through the iron armor.

More than a thousand war horses wanted to bypass the horse, but the leader had no time to command, so most of the war horses were spinning around in front of the horse. Some were shot by arrows and fell off the horse, while others were hung down by the horse rifle. The more than 200 Jin soldiers and knights who were leading the way bumped into them in a daze, and went to see the King of Hell with more or less transparent holes on their bodies.

When more than a hundred cavalry slowed down their horse speed and entered through the gap between the horse-resisting positions. Unexpectedly, after passing through three rows of horse-resisting horses, the war drums behind the Song army were beating, hundreds of short sword hands jumped up from the trench, squatting down, holding up a round shield to protect their bodies, and using a long sword in his right hand to chop the horse's feet. The Jin soldiers and cavalrymen were afraid of being shocked and were chopped to the ground by the Song soldiers.

This time, the Jin army commanded the leader of the Bohai Sea. The raid of the cavalry naturally also had a formation, not as simple as more than 10,000 cavalry rushing up. Dajurong also saw the encounters of the front team, but when the four or five hundred cavalry front team rushed into a row of horses, it was like a mud cow entering the sea, leaving no trace, and was shocked.

When Da Kurong listened, he heard a faint cry from the wind, but because it was far away, it was hard to hear clearly in the upper wind. He was shocked and puzzled. When the team was about to rectify and attack again, the squad of cavalry was not so easy to gather. As he spoke, the remaining thousand cavalry in the horse had already arrived and rushed straight into the horse-resisting formation.

Da Ku Rong couldn't see it in detail, and listened carefully, and only heard the sound of killing coming from the Song army to shake the sky.

At this time, the Jurchen cavalry had already strangled with the Song army. The Song army's spearmen hid in the trench and stabbed upwards with spears, only looking for the horse's belly. The horse's belly was big and it was not effective, and each one was stabbed accurately. The sword and shield hands only chopped the horse's feet. The Jin soldiers sat on the horse, and whether it was a mace, a sabre or a iron bone, could not reach the Song army's spearmen in the trench. The Song army's sword and shield hands had a round shield to protect the vital points. The mace hit the round shield that was only two feet above the ground, but it only smashed the wooden shield and could not hurt the Song soldiers below.
