"The Jin people lost a group of cavalry before, but they have never forgotten our army's logistics. If they send troops again this time, I'm afraid they are coming from bad intentions." Yelv Rongguang said.

"How come someone is so unkind?"

"Anbei City is in a stalemate, but the Jin army general is eager to defeat Rongcheng. The general believes that the Jin people must send a group of the most elite soldiers to fight, so that it can be effective quickly and will not affect the situation outside Anbei City.

The main number of people."

"The most elite troops?" Guo Hao said with a smile, "It doesn't matter, I'm fighting the elites!"

"There may be a hard force."

Guo Hao's face darkened. He thought for a moment and said, "Then it depends on whether our artillery is more powerful or their hard-line army is more powerful."

On the third day of June, the main force of the Song Army advanced into Pingrong City.

Pingrong City is a hundred miles north of Dongsheng City and is the logistics supply point from Dongsheng City to Anbei City.

The city is a brick structure and the scale of the city is small.

If this city is captured, the cost of food transportation from Dongsheng City to Anbei City will increase at least three times, including risks.

On the afternoon of the third day of June, before the main force of the Song Army formed a formation, a Jin Army cavalry suddenly appeared and launched a surprise attack on the Song Army.

This is a classic way of cavalry fighting infantry, and it is also a classic tactic of siege and reinforcement in the cold weapon era.

As long as the infantry legion is not in formation, its combat effectiveness is basically zero. It will be chaotic when it rushes, and it will collapse when it is chaotic.

This is true no matter how elite the army is.

But the current Song Army is not so easy to make a surprise attack. After the Jin Army's cavalry quickly advanced from the side, the Song Army's cavalry also appeared on the battlefield.

The cavalry from both sides began to fight.

The Jin army's kidnappers were unable to break through the interception of the Song army's cavalry for a while, while the Song army's infantry quickly gathered their troops.

During this period, Jin Army scouts more accurately detected the Song Army's military formation and strength.

Before the Song army's military formation was assembled, a hard-line army with even its horses covered in iron armor suddenly appeared on the battlefield.

There were about two thousand troops, coming in a mighty force, with layers of metal ripples flowing in the sunlight, like a sea of ​​steel.

Their appearance immediately made the battlefield strange.

"Report!" The scout rushed over, "General Manager Guo, the Jin Army's armored cavalry is coming from the north, and it is three miles away at this time!"

Guo Hao climbed up to the commander's platform and took a look, and he saw a large black mass of cavalry approaching.

"Quick! Artillery crew, prepare, heading due north!"

"Gunner ready!"

"Due north!"

Orders are passed quickly.

The artillery battalion of the Song Army assembled in front and prepared the artillery skillfully.

Three rows of infantrymen lined up in front of the artillery, forming a solid line of defense.

Soon, the Jin's hard-line troops were within a mile of each other.

At this time, the main force of the Song Army has just been assembled, and the overall defensive power has not been truly demonstrated. Let alone the hard army, even the kidnapping horses rushing from both sides can cut the formation apart.

A large torrent of steel came, and the overwhelming pressure felt like a mountain collapsing.

At this time, the sound of artillery sounded, and iron cannons were struck due north.

The dense iron cannons smashed into the hard-line troops. Some war horses fell to the ground whiningly, and some were smashed empty.

Continuous noises sounded, causing the war horses to panic, and the momentum of the impact also weakened a lot.

However, the terrifying impact of the armored cavalry still did not stop, and soon hit the first row of infantry soldiers of the Song Army.

At that moment, it was like two giant steel waves colliding with each other, rolling up a series of "steel waves".

Amidst the screams, countless people were thrown off their horses and crushed underneath.

The Jin's armored cavalry did not decrease and continued to push forward arrogantly.

Until the third row of infantry armor was overthrown, and some artillery pieces were also overturned. The infantry armor behind held iron shields and quickly stepped forward, forming rows of solid defenses again.

After the Jin people's heavy cavalry arrived here, their momentum had significantly weakened and even stopped.

If there is no artillery sniping, the mounted cavalry under normal conditions can use this impact method to level the Song army.

After encountering such strong resistance, the Jin Army's armored cavalry charge was half a failure.

The equipment behind them had no intention of making another impact, some turned around and others crashed into the horses in front that had slowed down and fell.

The Jin people's cavalry tactics are extremely clever. Even when the hard troops charge, they keep the distance between each other and their riding skills are superb.

Unlike the heavy plate-armored cavalry in Europe, which were as slow as the heavy cavalry, the hard-line army was able to assemble in roundabout ways to a certain extent, although the speed of assembly was not as fast as that of the kidnapper's horse.

This has been mentioned in the historical materials of the Jin people.

"General Manager Guo, do you need to dispatch our cavalry with military equipment?"

"No, it's so chaotic at this time. The Jin army's attack failed and they can only retreat. Their kidnap horses still have the ability to quickly kill in a roundabout way."

This wave of attacks by the Jin army was like thunder, but their defeat was so embarrassing.

Guo Hao did not pursue, he always kept in mind Yu Yunwen's words, this time he must fight steadily, even if he misses the opportunity, he must be steady and seek stability.

After the hard troops retreated one after another, the kidnapper horses also dispersed like wind and clouds, leaving behind a bloody battlefield.

In this confrontation, the Jin people failed to encircle the point to support them.

Guo Hao's troops quickly advanced to Pingrong City, formed a highly mobile attack with cavalry, and launched an attack on the main force of the Jin with a thousand mounted cavalry.

On the fourth day of June, the Jin army that besieged Pingrong City temporarily retreated to fifty miles south of Anbei City, approaching Wang Bolong's main army, so that the Song army did not dare to act rashly.

The threat to Pingrong City is temporarily lifted.

But it can only be considered temporary, because neither the Jin Army's cavalry horses nor the hard troops have damaged the foundation.

The Song army mobilized almost all its troops and used all weapons.

On the fifth day of June, Han Changqin led 50,000 troops to Yunnei Prefecture.

Han Chang had already learned the general situation of Anbei Mansion, but he did not rush to send troops south immediately. Instead, he sent someone to send a message to Wang Gu's tribe first.

He said it very euphemistically: If the Wanggu tribe did not immediately send troops to assist Dajin in encircling and suppressing the Song army, Dajin would kill all the Wanggu people without leaving any room.

After such polite condolences, Alash suddenly felt that Dai Jin was kind enough and reasonable enough, so he resolutely gathered a group of people with a total strength of eight thousand.

Having learned from the experience of being tricked by Xixia and the ancient Wang people before, Han Chang mixed A'ala's missing men and horses into the Jin army, using them all as forwards.

On June 13th, Han Chang personally led an army of 100,000 to cross the Yellow River south. The main force of the mighty Jin army spread out on the grassland, with no end in sight.

Yerunuge said to Han Chang: "The logistics route has not yet been completed. If we rashly expand the battle situation at this time, it will take a long time and it will be detrimental to our army."

"Soldiers are expensive and quick. The Song army doesn't even know that the main force of our army is approaching. In less than a month, the Song army will be completely wiped out!" These were Han Chang's exact words, "As long as Wanyan Salihe and the rear guard are guarded!"
Chapter completed!
