Chapter 830: Killing
There were countless corpses lying on the snow field. The war horse that had lost its master made a mournful cry. The battle continued. Gui Zhihuan and a team of personal guards were dyed red and blood was flowing on their left shoulders. But when they were here, even she, a female, became crazy. After the ghost face, her eyes that seemed to be dyed red by blood emitted a luster like a hungry wolf. The sharp blade in her hand was not counted as a sting, and each stroke brought blood rain.
"Be careful!" Gui Zhihuan cut off the head of a Jurchen man, and shouted loudly from behind her. She turned around and saw a clan member running quickly on a horse. Suddenly, the clan member suddenly fell off the horse and fell down in a daze. Gui Zhihuan discovered that a Jurchen man who was attacking from behind was pulling out a red spear.
This spear should have pierced into Gui Zhihuan's back. It was the tribe who sacrificed his life and used his flesh and blood to resist it, so he was spared.
Gui Zhihuan's eyes fell on the tribe members who were lying on the snow, and the eyes were even more red. She scolded her, not knowing whether it was grief or hatred, or both, and strangled her horse and rushed towards the Jurchens frantically.
The long blade raised and slashed, and blood splattered everywhere. Although it was a long battle, it was still neat and neat.
The death of the tribe members aroused the indignation of the Jurchens and the Hengshan Army, and the screams of their companions made the cavalry army crazy.
The killing had just begun. When the cavalry was together, they forgot to sprint and forgot that they were arrogant cavalry. They were like infantrymen, and they were constantly planning to kill the enemy on horseback, and at the same time they were pierced through the chest and abdomen by the opponent's spear.
This battle is the most tragic and cruel. If other military and horses fight, once the war is damaged to a certain extent, one side will inevitably retreat. However, these two military and horses have incomparable courage and unparalleled endurance. They use swords to cut, stabbing with spears, biting with teeth, and trampling horses. No one chooses to flee, as if there is only killing left between heaven and earth.
Only by killing them can you survive. Only by killing them can you take revenge and killing them can you achieve merit.
"kill!"
When someone burst out this sound, whether it was Hengshan people, the cavalrymen, or even the Jurchens on the battlefield, they would respond in unison: "Kill!"
Wu Shu was exhausted, his hands were stained with blood, and the war horses he sat down had been replaced. He led a team of cavalry guards and rushed left and right, as if he had entered a no-man's realm. His face was full of murderous aura, and his wide brocade robe was wet and covered with blood. His whole body seemed to be in the world, and he was about to reach the point of his rise, and he let out a wave of low roar from his throat.
However, Wu Shu couldn't help but be surprised. Wherever the Jurchen Iron Cavalry passed, it was a devastating place. In the past, when fighting with the Liao cavalry, the Liao army might be able to withstand a while as long as they were released to rush, but once the casualties reached a certain level, they began to disperse like birds and beasts. The Jurchens were invincible and often used instant explosive power to defeat the opponent. However, the tactics of these Western Xia cavalry in front of them have obviously lost their effectiveness. Once the cavalry is in a deadlock, the advantages of the Jurchen Iron Cavalry will be gone.
If you continue to fight like this, the final result will be both sides. In fact, until now, the Jurchens and the Xixia people have suffered heavy losses. The corpses on the ground have exceeded 10,000, and the blood splashed out has melted the snow on the ground. At this time, even the formation is not enough. There are crowds of melee people everywhere, fighting and roaring.
Wu Shu couldn't help but stare at the eyebrow. The result was really unpredictable. If we continue to fight like this, I'm afraid that in the end, it would be good that 60,000 Jurchen Iron Cavalry could leave 30,000. The 300,000 Jurchen Iron Cavalry had been consumed by the Song army and the Western Xia army. If we lose another 30,000 today, it would be a heavy blow to the Jin Kingdom.
But it is not so easy to retreat. Just like two tigers fighting each other, if any tiger is timid and wants to escape, it will inevitably be chased and beaten by the other party. The final result is not just as simple as loss, or even annihilation of the entire army is not impossible. The current Jurchen cavalry has a feeling that it is difficult to ride a tiger, but no matter what, they must fight and persevere until the other party is exhausted.
This fierce battle is destined to be a victory forever, and the ending of the other side will inevitably be annihilated. Apart from fighting to the death, there is no way out.
Wuda, who was in the battle formation, had already felt this heavy pressure. The 60,000 Jurchen Iron Cavalry, were like crazy, and they even occupied some of the top peaks in the fierce battle. If it weren't for the Knights and Hengshan Army not afraid of death, they would have ended up defeating like a mountain.
Woo woo...
While the battle was in full swing, a low whine sound came out.
The people in the battle formation were still fighting for themselves, and only a very small number of people looked at the source of the sound. At this time, on the horizon in the direction of Linhuang Mansion, one after another suddenly appeared, with flags waving, and more and more riding shadows. With the sound of horns, riding shadows began to gather.
Shen Ao was riding a horse exhausted, and the horse was galloping under the flag for seven or eight hours, causing his legs to be stained with blood. However, he was unaware that all his attention was placed on the battlefield of fighting in the distance. After watching for a long time, he finally breathed a long sigh and couldn't help but say, "I finally arrived."
The navy cavalry behind him appeared tiredly behind him, more and more, the war horses and the cavalry on the horse were gasping for breath, spitting white mist into the air.
Shen Ao pressed the horse and closed his eyes slightly. Zhou Heng looked ahead and hit the horse forward, saying, "Your Highness, do you want the soldiers to rest and then fight?"
Shen Ao glanced at Zhou Heng and said, "Why, are you tired?"
After sitting on the horse for seven or eight hours, Zhou Heng was tired from the place, even the war horses that sat down could not bear it. Even the horses of several cavalry had already spit out white foam. However, Shen Ao asked provocatively, but Zhou Heng shook his head and said, "I'm not tired."
Shen Ao smiled faintly, slowly pressed the hilt of the sword around his waist with his hand, gently pulled out the sword, and said with a smile: "I am actually tired, but there are three things in the world that must be done."
Zhou Heng knew in his heart that he must have said this brother-in-law, but he still couldn't help asking: "What three?"
"You have to be intimate on the night of the wedding, and you have to bring your brother-in-law with you to fight and beat the dogs in the water!"
Zhou Heng's face was pulled down and said, "If you want to fight, just beat them. What are you doing? What brother-in-law is not a brother-in-law, but I am like my dignified seven-foot man. It's because of a brother-in-law who can fight."
Shen Ao pulled out his long sword, laughed, and shouted at the trapped naval cavalry: "Who wants to rest?"
The cavalry sat down on the horse with a hurried look in Shen Ao's eyes, but no one said the word "I". A dignified man, if he responded to this sentence here, he would never raise his head in the army in his whole life.
Chen Ao shouted: "Okay, since you don't want to rest, that's great. Today, all the Jiuzhou people in the world, inside and outside the pass, will remember our names, our great achievements, and draw out our swords!"
Swish... The long sword is like a forest.
Chen Ao yelled: "It's time to beat the dog in the water, kill it!"
"kill!"
More than 10,000 naval cavalry gathered into a galloping dragon and rushed towards the flanks of the Jin army.
The sudden change made everyone stunned. For a moment, the cavalry and the Hengshan Army burst into voices: "Long live!" The morale of the Western Xia army was like a rainbow. The Jin army finally got disarray. The battle situation at this time was like a scale, and no one could suppress anyone. However, the arrival of the navy cavalry was like a weight to crush the Jurchens to death. The arrival of this "new force" made the originally confused battle situation clear.
Wanyan Zongjun was shocked in the formation and quickly drove away. When the cavalry guards around him saw it, they knew that something was wrong and followed them one after another. Wanyan Zongjun's retreat accelerated the defeat of the Jin army. For a moment, the Jin army suddenly became messy.
Seeing this, Wu Shu couldn't help but gritted his teeth. Seeing Wanyan Zongjun and his group of people away, he couldn't help but curse: "Rat." His anger made sense. Now the Jurchens and the Xixia people were strangling each other, and they were not distinguished from each other. Even if the Song army came, it would never be possible to rush on the horse, because while rushing to the Jurchen people, it was easy to hurt their own people by mistake. In this case, the 10,000 Song army would not have much effect unless the rushing horses were used to tear a hole in the Jurchen formation. It was nothing more than giving the Jurchen iron cavalry more pressure.
However, as soon as the Song army arrived, the morale of the Western Xia cavalry immediately rose. As the prince, Wanyan Zongjun should hold on and continue to fight fiercely. However, Wanyan Zongjun actually took the lead, which made the morale of the entire Jin army fall to the bottom of the valley. Many people gave up fighting and fled out of the battlefield with no life.
This kind of battle is about patience and morale. Now, the real trend is over.
The Jin army collapsed in an uproar, and countless people rushed to flee. At this time, the Western Xia cavalry, with a rainbow of morale, burst out with long live sounds, and then they set off their horses and held their swords, and began to pursue them wildly.
Seeing this, the Song cavalry immediately began to charge in arcs and attack the fleeing Jin army. If these Jin troops did not escape, they might have a chance of turning defeat into victory. Even if they were defeated, they would be able to at least kill a thousand enemies and lose 800. However, after escaping like this, the back of their bodies was left with iron hooves and sharp long swords, and a killing officially kicked off.
Countless people galloped and chased on the snowy field. Many war horses were exhausted and foamed out of their mouths. However, the cavalry on the horse had no intention of cherishing horsepower. They urged to run with all their strength. After catching up with the Jin man, they slashed forward and stabbed the next one. They didn't have to pay attention to the life and death of the fallen Jin man, and they still rushed forward.
On that day, the Jin army was defeated. The Song and Xia coalition forces chased each other for fifty miles and chased them to the city of Linhuang Mansion. A distance of fifty miles was everywhere, which was shocking. The Jin army was wiped out, and Wanyan Zongjun, who was the first to escape, was also killed and dropped. The Song and Xia coalition forces killed 40,000 enemies and captured more than 7,000 people. The remaining cavalry fled.
The Song and Xia coalition forces camped under Linhuang Mansion that night. Chen Ao ordered 30,000 cavalry to divide into ten teams and still chase the Jin army scattered outside the city, while the rest attacked the Jurchen tribes everywhere.
Of course, it was a forced one. Although the overall situation has been decided and the enemies outside Linhuang Mansion City have been completely eliminated, the daily consumption of these more than 100,000 people is extremely amazing. Because it is a long-distance raid, it does not carry much food. Under such circumstances, there is no better way except to loot everywhere and fight to support the war.
Fortunately, this place is a place where the water and grass are plump. There are many Jurchen tribes migrating from Liaodong. These tribes have demarcated pastures and are scattered everywhere. In addition, winter has arrived, almost every tribe has stockpiled a large amount of food and horse materials. In addition, the cattle and horses raised in captivity are terrifying. Although it is terrifying to have more than 100,000 mouths, most of the Jurchens have expressed that the pressure is not very high.
Outside the huge city, the military camps that stretched for seven or eight miles were already full of people. Although they were exhausted after the war, this victory was really huge. Sixty thousand Jurchen cavalry were wiped out, which was enough to affect the victory or defeat of the entire battle. This battle was the biggest defeat of the Jin army in history. When a cavalry came back with the looted wine, cattle, sheep, and forage, Chen Ao ordered the reward of the three armies. Each of them was divided into three taels of water and wine, and the meat and esophagus were full. The cavalry in the camp relaxed and cheered. In this camp, the bonfires were lit up in a row. Although the wine was less, and the Jurchen wine was strong, it always lacked a little mellow. However, so many people gathered together to celebrate, the wine was not drunk. Everyone was drunk. The camp was like a noisy city, boasting about today's achievements.
Although he knew that the Jin army in Linhuang Mansion had no available troops, Chen Ao still sent a team of people to patrol the night. As for what the Jurchens in the city would think when they heard the cheers outside, it was not what Chen Ao thought about.
