Early the next morning, both sides formed an array. The Jin army attacked Wei Yang's array again without any provocation.

After last night's attack and a night's rest, the morale of the Song army was boosted. Facing the surging Jin army, their performance was no worse than yesterday.

At noon, Wanyan Yuying came to Balisu and said: "Your Majesty, the Song army is still difficult to attack. What will happen if this continues? The Song army has more troops than us. If it cannot be defeated, it will be difficult to break the city!"

Ba Lisu nodded. After thinking for a while, he said: "The current plan is to mobilize elite soldiers to attack the left wing of the Song army."

Wanyan Yuying said: "This is the best! I will lead my elite cavalry to attack the Song army in a hurry. If the Song army is defeated, break its left wing and attack from both sides. Let's see how they can defend! The terrain of Jingmen is weird, as long as the outside is broken

With our military formation, the city will definitely be unable to defend itself!"

The two discussed for a while and decided on the strength and timing of the attack. Wanyan Yuying went back to prepare.

Looking at the situation on the battlefield, Chen Yuyi said: "Early this morning, the morale of the Jin army was still high. By noon, it was a little sluggish."

Wang Xiaolie said: "How many people died in the Jin Army after two days of attacking? I really thought that the Jin Army was made of iron! If it can persist until now, the Jin Army will be the most powerful army in the world. If we don't concentrate our manpower and material resources

After training nearly ten thousand armored soldiers, it is really difficult to resist the Jin army."

During the war, Wang Xiaolie kept thinking about how he could defeat the Jin army. After much deliberation, he came to the conclusion that the only way to think of a solution was to have armored soldiers to block the Jin army's attack. If the defending army was not armored,

, after the initial cavalry of the Jin army approached and fired arrows, it was difficult to maintain a stable formation. Once the formation was in chaos, it would be difficult to fight again. If there was not enough iron armor, the Jin army would seize the opportunity from the front, and they would also be destroyed.

disaster.

In less than two years, nearly 10,000 armors could be assembled. This was the powerful national power of the Song Dynasty. In the late Northern Song Dynasty, the Song Dynasty actually stored a large amount of military supplies. As long as the generals were willing and willing to spend money, it was not difficult to equip a powerful army.

Everyone knows that the national power of the Song Dynasty was stronger than that of the Jin Dynasty. Why was it stronger? It was stronger because it had a large number of soldiers and armaments, and after completing internal integration, it had a large number of troops. It could be defeated once, ten times, or even dozens of times, and it could still make a comeback.

On the other hand, if the Song army wiped out 200,000 Jin troops, the Jin Dynasty would be completely finished.

This army is still too new and can only rely on more powerful military defense. If they have been in battle for a long time and their officers are reliable, there will be no need for such trouble. As soon as the Jin army leaves Jiangling, Wang Xiaolie's army can meet them and quickly complete the division.

surrounded.

While the battle was stalemate, the sound of horns was heard in the Jin army's formation. Thousands of cavalry galloped out and rushed towards Niugao's position.

Wang Xiaolie said: "The Jin Dynasty had many horses and was good at riding and shooting. They should be better at cavalry. But in fact, what the Jin army really relied on was the iron pagoda that directly charged into the battle formation. On the battle formation, cavalry was theirs.

The kidnapping horse is also interesting to talk about."

Chen Yuyi said: "Defensively, the Kuaizi Horse is a strong force of the Jin Army and should not be underestimated! In many battles, the Jin Army's Kuaizi Horse attacked the flanks, and the army was defeated only after the army's formation was in chaos! Although Niu Gao is brave, he still needs to be extra careful!"

Wang Xiaolie said: "Don't worry, the cavalry in Niu Gao's army is not less than that of the Jin army's cavalry! With twice as many troops, if he still can't defend against the Jin army, how can Niu Gao face others? The kidnapping horse successfully charged into the formation.

It’s not because the Jin army is strong, it’s because our army is weak!”

The elite soldiers of the Jin Army's attack were particularly elite. Not only the Song Dynasty, but also Liao and Xixia were also difficult to deal with. This is indeed a fact. However, it is not uncommon for an army that is not a full-time army to be overwhelmed by such strong soldiers. The Forbidden Army of the Song Dynasty was a full-time army, and it was still

The inability to stop the elite troops of the Jin Army from rushing into battle illustrates the degree of military and political desolation in the late Northern Song Dynasty. From the perspective of future generations, the strength of the Jin Army lies in its perseverance and strength on the battlefield, as well as its rapid maneuverability. There were no major strategic mistakes, and it was

If this kind of army is defeated, the regular army is indeed of no use.

Just like the Japanese army in World War II, it was extremely powerful at the beginning. Not only on the battlefields of China, but also on the battlefields of Southeast Asia. When countries gradually adapted and their armies were tempered, the Japanese army lost its initial prestige. This is not just the Japanese army.

The troops were insufficient. The Japanese army later replaced them with new soldiers, and the allies also had new soldiers. The bigger reason was that the capabilities of the enemy's and our own armies on the battlefield were rapidly approaching each other.

Looking at the Jin army's rapidly approaching cavalry, Niu Gao said: "When the Jin people fight, they use the infantry as the front and the cavalry as the two wings, which is called a kidnapping horse. The Jin people use this method to travel all over the world and have few opponents! Use this method to attack me today.

Just do the opposite!"

After saying that, he ordered his infantry to form a tight formation. The heavy armor was in the front row to prevent the Jin army's bow and arrow attacks. The thin armor was in the rear, using crossbows. He concentrated three thousand cavalry on his left wing and waited for the opportunity.

The cavalry of the Jin Army are good at long-distance attack, but short at close combat. The front row holds a one-foot-two-foot spear, and the back row holds a bow. The Jin Army's bow power is not strong, usually seven fights, and the bow can be fired within fifty steps. In contrast,

, the soft bow used by the Song Army’s cavalry also had a strength of nine fights.

The Jin Army is powerful, and the cavalry is also heavily armored and stoic. If the attack is slightly frustrated, the whole team will immediately come back, often all day long. Of course, the Jin Army's endurance is amazing, and horses are horses after all. Such an attack is not fast and the action is

slow.

Watching the two sides meeting each other, the spears in the front were fighting each other, and the bows and arrows in the rear were firing. They were stalemate for a while. Niu Gao said: "The cavalry cannot compare with the infantry, and it cannot last long. Order the cavalry to attack the left flank of the Jin army immediately! Charge from the mountain

Next, there is no need to rush into the Jin army’s formation, just shoot arrows!”

Due to his own conditions, there are basically no heavy armored cavalry in Wang Xiao's hunting army, and they are basically all light cavalry. They wear thin armor and hold cavalry bows in their hands. They focus on teamwork and moving around quickly. It is impossible to let them charge into the formation, but

It's perfect for controlling the battlefield and attacking the enemy's weaknesses.

Wanyan Yuying was heavily armored and charged forward. He rushed to the front of the formation and was hit by several arrows in a short time. However, he could not hurt himself, so he didn't care at all. With the spear in his hand, he led the formation and rushed straight towards the Song army.

While they were killing each other, I heard the soldiers beside me say: "Lang Jun, the Song Army cavalry is coming down from the mountain, open my right wing!"

Wanyan Yuying retreated slightly, stood up and looked around, and saw the Song Army's cavalry rushing down from the mountain and attacking his right wing. From a distance, he could see that the Song Army's cavalry did not wear armor or carry long soldiers, and each held a bow.

"But you are seeking death!" Wanyan Yuying was furious. He immediately ordered his deputy general to lead five hundred cavalry to meet him and repel the Song army's cavalry.

"Here!" Zhang Chi galloped on his horse. When he saw the Jin army coming out, he drew his bow and drew an arrow. An arrow hit the Jin army in the face, but the arrow bounced off.

The Jin Army's horse was extremely strong, with only two eyes left, so it was difficult for ordinary bows and arrows to damage it. Seeing that the shot could not hurt the Jin Army, the Song Army turned its horse's head to avoid being entangled by the Jin Army. After only turning a few times, the Jin Army

The horse couldn't hold on any longer and began to pant.

The Song army turned back and divided into small groups to cooperate, trying to separate the Jin army. They stopped using bows and arrows, took out their maces, and smashed their maces at the Jin army. Once the mace hit the Jin army, no matter how injured the Jin army was, the Song army would be defeated.

He quickly dodged. Before Jin Jun could recover, another person rushed up again.

The Jin army was heavily armored, and the burden on their horses was particularly heavy, so they were most afraid of this style of fighting. If they were not in the formation and did not bring their spears, there would be nothing they could do against the Song army.

After Wanyan Yuying finished his killing spree, he led his horse to see the deputy general's cavalry, and saw that there were not many men and horses left. The Song army was rushing back and forth, and the Jin army was unable to catch up or run away. It was in a very embarrassing situation there.

Seeing the fierce fighting ahead, the Song army's formation showed no sign of wavering. Wanyan Yuying sighed: "That's all, if you don't charge head-on, what's the use of the cavalry's heavy armor? If we continue to struggle here, I'm afraid we will be cut off by the Song army.

There is no way out!"

After saying that, he ordered his men to prepare to retreat. No matter how slow the cavalry was, the Song infantry could not catch up.

On the way back, the Song Army's cavalry continued to harass them. They had no formation, they just clung to the back and tore them apart when they had the chance. By the time Wanyan Yuying led the troops back to the formation, they had already lost nearly a thousand people.

Looking at Wanyan Yuying who had escaped back, Ba Lisu shook his head. He looked up at the sun in the sky and didn't know what to do for a moment. Now they were deep into the Song Dynasty. If they couldn't break through the Song army's formation quickly, the Jin army would be in great danger.

Chen Yuyi saw the Jin army defeated and returned, and said to Wang Xiaolie: "The defense is really clever! The Jin army's kidnapper horse really retreated!"

Wang Xiaolie said: "The Jin Army's tactics are particularly suitable for attacking the weak with the strong. As long as the opponent's formation is strong and the defense is resolute, there is nothing they can do. If we have another battle today, it will be our turn to attack tomorrow!"

Chen Yuyi nodded heavily, feeling relieved for a moment.

The Jin army was good at fighting, and the Song army was defeated in repeated battles. This impression left a deep impression on the officials of the Song Dynasty. When the Jin army came, everyone seemed to be carrying a big burden. When they aided Shaanxi Province, they actually fought against the Jurchens

Not much. This time it was different, the ones fighting against were the elites of the Jin Army.

Look at the sun setting in the west, the attack has no effect, pull out the troops and retreat.

Watching the Jin army retreat, the Song army was extremely excited. It was no longer the same as yesterday. Yesterday, when they encountered the Jin army for the first time, most people were frightened by them. The ground was covered with blood and dead bodies, and many people felt heavy-hearted. Chapter 1

They fought again the next day and found that Jin Jun was nothing more than that. He was not afraid, Jin Jun was just a scary paper tiger and would not really bite anyone.

Back in the military camp, Wang Xiaolie ordered the writers of each army to advise the soldiers in time. They should not be arrogant in victory, not discouraged in defeat, and maintain a good attitude. With an extra lifetime of memory, Wang Xiaolie certainly knows the importance of the mental state of soldiers. Now

The scribes in the army are Gui Chen and Yi, working from top to bottom. On the one hand, they ensure the communication of military orders, write letters home to soldiers, understand the emotions of soldiers, and record the battlefield. On the other hand, they also allow the highest level officials to bypass officers at all levels.

, able to understand the thoughts of soldiers.

He ordered his soldiers to call several generals and sit down in the commander's tent. Wang Xiaolie said: "For two days in a row, the Jin Army's strong attack failed, so I'm afraid they have to find another way. What do you think will happen to the Jin Army next?"

Do?"
Chapter completed!
