Chapter 357: The mighty force is like a tiger, and the bloody battle shakes Jingdong
Flags fly, war drums thunder, and the earth trembles.
Wang Lin took the lead and charged into the formation. Fifty thousand Fuhu cavalry shouted to kill Zhentian, sweeping towards the golden soldiers formation like a torrent of steel.
Wang Lin has never underestimated the powerful combat effectiveness and unparalleled fighting will of the Jin cavalry.
Even though they were hostile, Wang Lin had to admire the Jin people's military management level, which was at the peak of this era.
Whenever the Jin people fought, they only died in battle, and there was no such thing as desertion or surrender.
This broad plain south of the Yellow River and north of Huazhou has become the most intense battlefield between the Jin and Song Dynasties on this sunny afternoon.
The morale and fighting will of the Jin soldiers were very high. They never really paid attention to the Song soldiers at all, even though Zhang Shuye's 20,000 Song soldiers had taught them a heavy lesson in Huazhou.
But that's to defend the city.
This is a wild battle.
The Jin people have always been known to be invincible if they exceed 10,000, and field cavalry charging into battle is their forte.
Not long ago, it even swept across the entire Khitan territory and most of the Mongolian Plateau!!!
Facing the roaring Jin cavalry, the Khitan people were frightened, let alone the Song army!
However, just when the formations of the two armies were about to start a fierce head-on collision, Yue Fei suddenly waved the flag of the Chinese army, and Liang Hongyu, dressed in red, jumped on the tall military drum chariot and beat the military drum with all her strength.
Advance at the sound of the drum and retreat at the sound of the gong. This has been written into the military regulations and training rules of the Fuhu cavalry.
The first of the so-called prescribed military actions that have been refined over time is to throw rockets and poisonous fireballs before the battle.
These actions have been practiced countless times and have been tempered by actual combat in the battles between Xixia and Liyang.
Jin Bing was a little confused. He saw rockets flying across the sky and strange objects burning and exploding in mid-air. He also saw the Song Army cavalry in front of them. Their speed did not slow down during the charge, their movements were uniform, and they were wearing even stranger gas protection.
mask.
Before he could react, streaks of poisonous smoke rose up in his formation and spread along the wind.
And then, the arrows fired by the short crossbows of the Song cavalry were very penetrating and could actually penetrate the iron armor on their bodies. This almost made the Jin soldiers feel the breath of death at the same time.
Immediately afterwards, countless golden soldiers felt dizzy and fell under their horses one after another, and were soon trampled into pulp by the iron hoofs that followed!
The war horses trampled each other, and there was a brief chaos in the Jin soldiers' forward formation.
But to Wang Lin's disappointment, Jin Bing chose the most correct method in the shortest time. Jin Bing covered his mouth and nose with a cloth handkerchief and relied on a more powerful impact to avoid the spread of poisonous smoke.
But despite this, there were still a lot of casualties.
The key is that this brief formation chaos gave the Song Army an excellent opportunity to rush into the formation.
Wang Lin led the 10,000 Tiger Guards with the strongest combat power to attack at the front. He was the sharp point of the entire Fuhu Cavalry charge.
In fact, many golden soldiers knew this king of Song and Qi with a white horse and a silver spear.
After all, when he was on a mission to the Kingdom of Jin, he used three thousand tiger guards to fight against the heavily armored Iron Pagoda under Wanyan Zonghan. He also defeated fierce tigers in Beijing and shocked the Kingdom of Jin.
At this time, Wang Lin already knew the situation of Huazhou City's defeat.
The city was broken, and the fate of Zhang Shuye and the 20,000 Song troops could be imagined.
There was endless anger in his heart, and the blood all over his body was boiling. He needed a battle to completely vent the negative emotions he had been feeling for the past few days.
Compared with Wang Lin, Wanyan Zongbi still commanded remotely from the rear army.
Wang Lin's large banner of King Qi is flying high in the formation of the golden soldiers, like a rolling dragon. Wherever the banner goes, anyone who stands in the way of the golden soldiers will perish.
Wanyan Zongbi was also furious, but he did not have the courage to face Wang Lin and fight him.
He knew very well that in terms of personal force, he was far from Wang Lin's rival.
But in his opinion, individual bravery facing the siege of thousands of troops is simply a joke.
His first brave general, Wanhu Ali, led a thousand elites to meet Wang Lin's banner.
Ali laughed wildly. He left the guards behind and rushed forward alone. He picked up the mace in his hand and smashed it at Wang Lin.
Wang Lin had a sneer on his face, and he tried his best to resist, but Ali's powerful and heavy mace flew away.
Then he urged the horse's belly, and the lion under his crotch was charged forward fiercely. Wang Lin's gun swept across, and Ali's bearded head soared into the sky, and landed heavily in the golden army array!
This Song general was as invincible as a god. The golden soldiers around him screamed and roared, and deep fear involuntarily arose in his heart.
Wang Lin looked up to the sky and roared. He stood up on his mount and picked up the divine arm bow on the horse. His skills increased his body speed, and the purple energy came to protect his body. He shot out several arrows, clearing away those who were rushing in front of him.
Golden soldiers and cavalry.
Perhaps only Wang Lin could see it, as his body was filled with a faint purple halo.
Wang Lin knew that this was the result of luck and had a certain protective effect.
Wang Lin rushed to kill, dashed left and right, and actually broke out a gap in the monolithic Jin army formation. Then the tiger guards roared past, and the Jin army's formation finally showed signs of collapse!
Seeing that the opportunity was no longer lost, Yue Fei decisively issued an order for the entire army to attack.
Liang Hongyu's fierce military drum beat vibrated, and the last 20,000 cavalrymen, Lu Junyi's troops and Hu Yanzhuo's troops, attacked like a tide from the left and right directions.
There were thousands of golden soldiers on both wings, and the force they faced suddenly more than doubled. Although the golden soldiers were powerful, the Fuhu Cavalry was not a soft persimmon, not to mention that at this moment, they had grief, anger and a strong will for revenge.
, enough to offset the certain gap between the enemy's strength and our weakness.
In the central army, Wang Lin used his invincible personal combat power and the powerful assault of the Tiger Guards to break out of a gap;
As for the two wings, the Fuhu cavalry gradually charged into the formation with superior force. Therefore, looking at the overall situation of the Jin soldiers, the Jin people actually gradually collapsed and shrank in the battle formation, but it was not so obvious.
The east wind howled, and the sky was filled with haze again, as if there was going to be another storm.
Wanyan Zongbi, who was in the Jin Army's rear formation, could already feel a complete chill rising from the bottom of his heart.
He was really a little scared.
He had never seen such a brave general like Wang Lin, who was charging forward at a rapid rate despite a dense rain of arrows. He would sweep away several heads with the gun in his hands, and the tens of thousands of purple arrows who followed him into the formation.
The armored cavalry were even more fearless. The bloody gap highlighted by Wang Lin's army could not be closed no matter how the Jin men tried to make up for it.
The blood that filled the air was quickly blown away by the strong wind. Seeing Wang Lin getting closer and closer to his rear army, Wanyan Zongbi gritted his teeth, raised the wolf flag, and led his troops to meet him.
As the prince of Dajin, he has his glory.
How can you be afraid of fighting?
…
The fierce fighting continued until dusk, when the Jin soldiers finally began to collapse.
First the central army, then the two wings.
When people shout and horses neigh, and the formation is messed up, most of the combat power is lost.
There was also an important factor that led to the defeat of the Jin army.
Guo Yaoshi led thousands of victorious troops to suddenly leave the battlefield temporarily and fled to the southern mountains at night.
Yue Fei decisively ordered not to pursue.
In the dark night, heavy rain fell from the sky, and the two thousand pro-troops led by Wanyan Zongbi violently collided with Wang Lin and his Tiger Guards.
Li Kui, Shi Jin and Yan Qing were guarding Wang Lin on the left and right sides. With the force of these three people against ordinary Jin soldiers, the situation was almost a one-sided crushing.
Coupled with the fact that Wang Lin in the middle was unstoppable, the pressure on the Tiger Guard following closely behind him was greatly reduced.
Li Kui was ready to kill, so he simply jumped off his horse, and Shi Jin did the same. The two of them were generals, but they could display their combat power better under the horse than on the horse.
Seeing his own troops falling in pieces, Wanyan Zongbi's heart ached unbearably, and his face was hideous.
These are all his close friends.
irreparable loss.
Regardless of the outcome of this battle, he will lose the basis for competing for power and status with other Aguda princes.
Wanyan Zongbi had the intention of quitting.
Seeing Wanyan Zongbi turn his horse's head and look like he was retreating in defeat, Wang Lin sneered in his heart. Without hesitation, he grabbed the divine arm bow from his back and fired three arrows in succession.
These three arrows shot through the air so fast that Wanyan Zongbi couldn't react in time.
The soldiers in front of him rushed forward and blocked two arrows for him, but the last arrow hit his shoulder socket and penetrated three points into the bone.
Wanyan Zongbi screamed and fell off his horse.
General Wanyan Zongbi was captured and his life or death was uncertain. This was the straw that broke the camel's back.
More than 30,000 golden soldiers hurriedly responded to the battle, and at least 15,000 died on the battlefield.
The remaining Jin soldiers were mainly defeated in two groups, fleeing all the way to the banks of the Yellow River and all the way to Shandong.
Lu Junyi and Hu Yanzhuo each led two armies to pursue them.
By dawn the next day, the first large-scale battle between the Fuhu cavalry and the Jin soldiers was gradually coming to an end.
A remnant of the Jin soldiers fled across the Yellow River and tried to join Wanyan Zongwang's headquarters. The remnants of the Jin soldiers who fled towards Shandong were almost completely wiped out.
At this point, in the Battle of Huazhou, the Qingzhou Army annihilated more than 25,000 Jin soldiers, beheaded 30,000 households under Wanyan Zongbi's command, and captured the general Wanyan Zongbi alive, achieving a great victory.
The Jin people suffered their first heavy blow since the invasion of the Song Dynasty!
Pharmacist Guo fled before the battle, but the thousands of soldiers and horses were no longer enough to cause trouble.
But the Fuhu cavalry also suffered losses of over ten thousand.
The casualties were not unbearable. Fortunately, a large number of horses abandoned by the Jin soldiers were captured, which somewhat relieved Wang Lin's heartache.
There is no point in war without killing people.
Including Zhang Shuye's 20,000 Hebei troops, the number of Song troops killed in Huazhou alone was 30,000!
In Huazhou, every inch of soil is dyed red.
…
Huazhou after the rain washes away all the blood in the sky.
However, the atmosphere in the Qingzhou Army was still desolate. More than 10,000 of the army's comrades died in battle, which was the first time since the Fuhu Army was formed.
The bodies of Zhang Shuye and others who died in the battle were hard to find. The soldiers could only be vaguely distinguished by the remains of their clothes and armor. Looking at the messy pile of flesh and blood fragments in front of him, Wang Lin couldn't help but burst into tears.
He remembered the farewell poem he had given Zhang Shuye in Tokyo that day.
To end the affairs of the king and the world, to win fame both in life and in life. Misfortune happened in vain!
Such a famous official in the world and a high-ranking person in the Song Dynasty originally had a chance to survive.
But he chose to defend the honor of the military and died in battle in Huazhou.
Not only Zhang Shuye, but also Hebei generals such as Yao Pingzhong, whom Wang Lin looked down on because of his previous life impression, also died generously.
The iron bones are loyal to the soul, and the spirit runs through the rainbow.
The majestic wind is like a tiger, and the bloody battle shakes Jingdong.
Wang Lin stopped his sorrow and chanted with emotion: "The heaven and earth have righteousness, and they are mixed and endowed with manifolds.
Below are the rivers and mountains, and above are the sun and stars.
To others, it is said to be vast and overwhelming.
The imperial road should be Qing Yi, Hanhe Tu Mingting.
It’s time to see what’s going on, and let’s take pictures one by one…”
