After a while, as the white bull flew forward, the Xixia people surged and made a comeback.

This time, the men did not use their lives to collide with the blade and spear tips again, but instead drove the following arrays behind them to drive the bows and pour out the arrows... The order they received was very simple, and the arrows on their bodies could retreat after shooting lightly.

One side had arrows densely packed like rain, and the other side had crossbows like thunder. The two sides had a distance away and carried out a full-scale non-contact battle, which made the Song army happy and worried.

What’s good is that after the Xixia people gave up frontal hand-to-hand combat, the Song soldiers in the array would relax a little from a psychological perspective, because face-to-face hand-to-hand combat is very devastating to people’s willpower, not just that. Compared with the previous hand-to-hand combat, the peripheral front line temporarily stopped moving. If it was just a long-range strike, the Song army could have a shield on the outer layer, heavily armored and continued to move.

What is worried about is that arrows do not have eyes. If the Xixia people insist on shooting at large areas of arrows, whether they are wearing shields, rotating or heavy armor, there will inevitably be considerable killing and interchange.

After all, the number of the other party is still too large.

Senior officers of the Song army must consider the occurrence of considerable war damage.

"It won't be consumed like this."

Just in case, the curved end of the iron elephant with a silk horse cover was slowly struck the horse while seriously inferring. "If they continue to waste this, their movements today will be meaningless. Such actions must be just a cover for some actions."

"Where is there any cover on the battlefield?" Hu Hongxiu, who was also wearing leather armor under Yue Fei's order, shook his head when he heard this.

"There will inevitably be a backup..." Yue Fei was fine, but he could not bear it when facing Hu Hongxiu Quduan. "Mr. Hu was the first-class scout, and this time it was a big contribution, but the military formation was still a little short of it."

Hu Hongxiu glanced at Qu Duan, but he stopped talking.

However, Yue Fei finally spoke up and explained to Hu Hongxiu: "The Minister Hu is not what Qu Dutong thought... Everyone can see that Dangxiang people must have a backup plan. What Mr. Hu means is that the people of Xixia are already working hard, but they are the people who have gathered together in three or four days, so there are actually hopes everywhere, just how much they are."

Qu Duan was stunned for a moment, instinctively trying to argue, but when he thought of the old woman Dangxiang before, he did not refute it. Moreover, not only the scene just now, but Qu Da also understood it at this moment. Yue Fei and Hu Hongxiu were more calm and said more reasonable.

After all, the Song army seized the gap in the defense of the people in Xixia and suddenly came here with a killing attitude. At this time, the people of Xixia were both unprepared, while the other was extremely frightened... Then at this time, any of their military operations were hasty and panic, so it seemed that even the aggressive attack might be easily defeated by the troops of the Song army's imperial camp, which was waiting for the battle; but at the same time, any military operations of these Dangxiang people were also crazy and burning, so no matter how absurd and useless the attack seemed, it should not be underestimated.

When fighting, it is natural to be very important to have thick armor and sharp swords, but human will still not be ignored in this era, especially when there is a huge amount of bonus, no one knows what actions the Xixia people will do when facing fright and despair.

In fact, as the ejaculation progressed, the Xixia people soon experienced an unconventional bloody situation:

Maybe there were too many casualties in the previous round of hand-to-hand combat, and these collisions were still a little scared now. Or maybe the proportion of casualties in the face of the Song army's crossbowmen made them feel desperate, so soon there were deserters trying to take advantage of loopholes... This is of course... Many deserters tried to retreat by throwing quivers to get away, and what they received was the bloody suppression of the foreign cavalry behind them.

One after another, as long as you dare to retreat at this time, all of them were directly executed by the foreign cavalry on the ridge of the field with the advantage of the height of the war horse and the length of the spear... The specific process is often that seven or eight foreign cavalry rushed up and poked seven or eight blood holes out of the retreating men. The executed men often just wailed a few times and fell to the ground immediately.

When the killing of the warriors in the rear was higher than that of the Song army in the front, and the incident suddenly happened, these grassroots tribes still had a system of obedience to the Dangxiang Guiren and the Dabai Gaoguo, not to mention the existence of the king's flag... so the front line was quickly stabilized.

But this way of disposal is destined to be impossible to last too long.

"I really shot all the arrows!" Finally someone retreated again, and then called each other at the foreign cavalry who were supervising the battle from afar, using Guanxi Han dialect. "I have always been the fastest and most stable archery among the tribes!"

Several foreign cavalry immediately rushed towards each other with their spears, and the voice was again rushing to meet again, half pleading, half a kind of stubbornness and arrogance:

"I didn't coax you. I just didn't go to Hengshan when I was old. I also have a horse at home. I could have been like you, but I gave it to my grandson for a while!"

This chaos seemed particularly harsh on the battlefield where there was just a little order, which directly attracted Liang Wangweiming Anhui under the white cow's flag not far behind to look up. However, when he raised his head, he did not find the veterans who were defending himself. He only saw a group of foreign cavalry who were scattering and returning to the team. The spears on their hands had already been stained with blood.

At the same time, there were still trampled green seedlings on the ground standing up stubbornly, covering a lot of things with the ridges of the field.

Without finding what he was looking for, Wei Ming Anhui continued to look forward, and then he felt a little aphasic... This is because, at the outermost periphery of the Song army march array opposite, many shields of shield holders had already been densely covered with arrows, but they were still moving.

Even looking inside, on the quadratic crossbow array that was mixed with guns and shields, many Song army crossbowmen on the periphery were nailed with arrows, like hedgehogs, but they were still calm, took several steps, and then stopped to exchange crossbow machines from the Song army behind them, and used the already-set crossbow machines to launch them calmly towards the Western Xia troops.

Obviously, the Song army's crossbowman was wearing armor, an iron mask, an iron scarf, and only a few parts under the armpit would be fatal.

Of course, the other party was not without casualties, but compared with the casualties of the party Xiang army, it was really disproportionate... In sharp contrast, the seemingly random crossbow arrows of the Song army often came with one arrow. Whether it was close to the collision between the men and the soldiers on the outside, even the foreign cavalry on the periphery had to be overturned to the ground, and even the people and horses were overturned to the ground.

This is normal. As the Western Xia royal family who started to lead troops in their twenties, Wei Ming Anhui certainly knew the importance of armor. Bu Bazi, Tie Yaozi, and a few Beiwei Army beside noble people. It is because of the exquisite and dazzling armor of Western Xia that these core elites were remembered by the Song army.

But now there is no way. Xixia's national strength is limited. Wei Mingcha took away most of the military reserves of Xingqing Prefecture, and the reserves in Lingzhou were also brought to Hexi. In this situation, Xixia has done its best.

After watching for a while, thinking for a while, An Hui, who was pressing into the formation, was silent for a moment. After a while, for some reason, he didn't hesitate anymore, and ordered a golden armored warrior: "The men who hit the men have tried their best today, but Xingqing Mansion is right in front of him, so you must not relax... Go back and tell the king that after the men who hit the men, half of the men who hit the men and continued to shoot. After the men who shoot the men, let the men who hit the men and then pick up the arrows on the ground and shoot again, and then the remaining half of the men who shoot will continue to shoot. Be sure to open the distance and suppress them in turn... All those with armor come with me!"

The generals of the Western Xia Dynasty were completely thunderous, and the golden-armored warrior was immediately ordered to leave the team and head toward Li Qianshun's location.

Of course, as Wei Ming Anhui moved again this time, the Song army immediately realized the other party's intentions.

"It's the tail of the team!" Liu Qi, who first noticed this scene, came to report to Yue Fei urgently. "Jingdu, the white bull crow of the king of Xixia is heading behind. Finally, I think the people of Xixia want to concentrate their combat power to attack our tail of the team!"

"See it." Yue Fei finally became serious, but he still showed no mercy. "President Liu returned to the team immediately, don't easily shake the formation he led!"

"Here!" Liu Qi hesitated for a moment, but left in response.

"Immediately, tell Zhang Jing, who is at the end of the team, that he must be steady and try not to stop. He must follow the entire army." After Liu Qi left, Yue Fei turned his head to the commander behind him, and then looked at Qu Duan. "Qu Du Tong... This town will not go to the end of the team. The Central Army Armored Cavalry will be in command. If you can take down the white cow crow, the Western Xia soldiers will inevitably collapse. Today's battle will be considered. If you can take down the head of the Xixia Kingdom, it will be even more like the Xingqing Prefecture... I will give you the credit."

Qu Duan was caught off guard, but immediately became excited and responded immediately.

However, when Qu Da couldn't wait to order the Central Army Armored Cavalry to set his head, then turn the horse's head and rush to the end of the Armored Cavalry team, he saw Yue Fei, Hu Hongxiu and others leading the big cage into the line of civilians in Linhe and continue to move, but he couldn't help but turn his head and shout: "Jingdu... do you still want to continue leading the big cage?"

"As long as the town's big flag is constantly moving forward, the people of Xixia will be frustrated." Yue Fei didn't look back and raised his hand immediately. "It's much easier than the soldiers and Qu Dutong. I'm lazy today and I'll be successful in watching Qu Dutong!"

Qu Duan sneered, turned his horse's head again, but turned back again, and then shouted loudly on the noisy battlefield: "Yue Jiedu... I also want the command of other armored cavalry in the formation!"

Yue Fei raised his hand again, still not looking back: "Happy!"

With this statement, dozens of elite guards who were responsible for the commander's duties also jumped out of the line and headed towards Quduan. For a moment, only Hu Hongxiu was beside Yue Fei, and there was only a big star behind him.

Of course, the big penis still moves forward.

“Woo~~”

The people of Xixia acted quickly. Qu Duan had just obtained the command of the cavalry. Before the cavalry turned the horse's head had been allowed to take action, a horn suddenly sounded from the back of the imperial camp. The sound was vigorous and extremely penetrating. The next moment, the soldiers of the two armies attracted by the horn saw with their own eyes that the dazzling white cow barely rushed towards the rear, and it stopped until it was more than a hundred steps away from the Song army's array. It seemed that the king of the country personally took the bow to the front line to fight.

Now, the surrounding Western Xia squads hit the sons and suddenly burst into shocking shouts of killing, and this madness immediately swept across the entire battlefield. The squads and squads rushed forward, shooting against the Song army regardless of life and death. From time to time, there were also the squads without armor, rushing into the Song army formation in front of them in a way that was suicide.

Of course, this kind of attack with too obvious intentions was caused by the concentrated sniping of the Song army, and it was impossible to do so. However, the Xixia people still found a new suicide attack tactic - many Xixia cavalry chose to gallop and throw their spear after throwing their quiver to the hit man!

It can only be said that the Xixia people's move was caught off guard and suddenly broke out; the second was that infantry and cavalry flocked to them, with arrows suppressing them from a long distance, and a close-range suicide-like spear throwing was even more powerful than the previous raids, and there was still a certain rationality... Therefore, the Song army array finally wavered, and many military arrays suffered short-term casualties that exceeded the total of previous casualties.

What's even more serious is that the uneven qualities between the various departments have also appeared. Some military formations have obviously wavered, and the military formations have been rotated out of control, and then the marching commander was forced to come forward in person, adjust the formation, and strictly enforce military discipline.

For a moment, the shaken person who was executed by the Song army in the face of the battle actually surpassed the direct casualties in this situation... The opposite side was no different before.

In this battle, the casualty mode of both sides was strange at the beginning.

"Your Majesty." As the shouts of killing in Helan Mountain and the Yellow River were almost shocked, on a ridge three or four hundred steps away from the front line, the only golden-armored warrior left behind could not help but remind his king of the country. "Before the King of Liang set off, he asked the minister to leave a message to the king, and the king of the army should be rotated, and the light cavalry should be divided into two groups, the front and back formations should be supervised in the front and rear formations, and the wheel tactics should be used to continuously put pressure on..."

Li Qianshun, who was nearly fifty years old, had a flushed face. He was slightly stunned when he heard this, but slowly shook his head: "It's okay... When King Liang said this, he probably didn't expect that my white cow bar would have such power when it moved. Only with such a strong surrounding force can King Liang be more likely to succeed at the end of the team... Don't rotate."

The golden-armored warrior hesitated for a moment, but he bowed his head and said yes.

The Xixia people outside were like a sea of ​​scattered mountains and overwhelmed the sound of the waves of the Yellow River... At the tail of the Song army's imperial camp, Zhang Jing, the old-school commander of the central army in the imperial camp, and his subordinates also encountered an unprecedented blow.

This is indeed the weakest part of the entire queue... It is different from the long array of long lines that are imagined to be the center of the long lines. Wei Ming Anhui keenly realized that the Song army in front of him could not hold the two ends and hit the middle, which was called seeking death. On the contrary, since the opponent's army has always been moving, and the purpose of the Xixia army is not to pursue annihilation of the other party on the riverside or defeat the other party, but to prevent the other party from continuing to move. At this time, the weakest part of the queue that has been moving will naturally become the tail of the long queue.

Because in this place, an emergency combat formation of the Song army needs to maintain protection on both sides at the same time. Moreover, although it is not known that the formation at the forefront of this formation is mainly composed of Zhang Xian's army, the most elite army of the Imperial Camp Front Army, Wei Ming Anhui can still see that Zhang Jing's unit at the end of the team is still slightly inferior to the head of the team.

In addition, as a veteran, Wei Ming Anhui noticed another important battlefield factor early on, that is, in early summer, the wind from south to north, which originally made the Song army's advance smoothly, but on the other hand, if the Song army "chased" the tail of the Song army from the rear, the Song army would retreat against the wind.

In fact, Zhang Jingmen encountered this extreme dilemma when he came up.

In his combat formation, his flanks were constantly being suppressed by the Xixia Light Cavalry and the Crazy Lang, but behind them were also impacted by the real Xixia core combat power... Arrows and spears almost made his subordinates breathless, but because they had to withstand both strikes at the same time, they could not even rotate troops.

But at the same time, he received the order that he was not allowed to dispatch cavalry to counterattack without authorization, nor was he allowed to stop the pace of the troops' advance.

In desperation, Zhang Jing could only let the headquarters raise his shield and go backwards.

But that didn't count. Soon, even worse situations occurred. The Xixia people at the tail began to consciously look for floating soil and wrapped it in cloth. Whenever the wind blew, they would blew the soil with the wind. Then some armored Xixia cavalry followed Yangchen and launched a melee raid.

For a time, Zhang Jing's troops suffered much more losses than the rest of the world.

But they are really not afraid of losses. What really hurts morale seriously is that in the current situation, they are unable to cause any effective counterattack against the army directly behind. They can only be passively beaten, passively injured, and even their own soldiers who are killed and injured cannot be discovered and helped up in time, and can only be forced to abandon them... The bodies of soldiers in the Imperial Camp of the Song Army who remained on the ground were provoked by the Xixia people who were constantly chasing them with spears to provoke them. A few wounded people became tools for the Xixia people to stimulate the Song army when there was no dust.

Less than a quarter of an hour after the war suddenly became fierce, Zhang Jing, who was the main commander of the Zhao Guan family from Huai, became angry and immediately let the few subordinates who went out to fight without authorization to try to counterattack.

To be honest, as a senior general of the Western Army who was enough to participate in the core military discussion, Zhang Jing knew very well that the two orders he had received before were absolutely correct and rational... He knew what the fundamental meaning of this battle was, that was, he had to persist in marching. As long as he ensured that he could attack the empty Xingqing Mansion tomorrow, it would be a victory; he also knew that the team of foreign cavalry and a team of armored cavalry in his hands would be destined to become prey for the Western Xia light cavalry to be killed.

However, the problem is that even if you understand in your heart, how can you control your emotions? In the Battle of Yaoshan, his troops died more than this time now, but the problem is, is it the main force of the Jurchens Western Route Army and the Xixia people who hurriedly gathered together to save the tribe soldiers? Is it the same thing to die in a fierce battle with only passively being beaten?

This time, each of the elite soldiers who followed him to pass the pass had to support him with one hundred coins a year! But he was shot to death by a group of foreigners wearing blue cotton jackets but could not fight back?

And if you just walk like this, you will probably not die a thousand camp until dark, but the teams of people you lead will probably die five hundred!

Who can tolerate it?

"What did Lao Zhang say?" Qu Duan sat upright on the iron elephant and frowned constantly when he heard this. "The death and injury behind him are so great?"

"So let the governor know that our family governor said that the casualties were not serious, but he just couldn't bear it." The messenger of Zhang Jing's army pulled his mount and circled it, and then responded anxiously. "My family governor said that if the governor did not support it within a quarter of an hour, he..."

"Jiangduan is not here." Qu Duan interrupted the other party from a high position and reminded him. "Jiangduan is given the command of the central army and the cavalry dispatching power of the entire army."

"That's the governor!" The messenger with a Guanxi accent kept urging. "Qu Dutong, my governor said that if the governor does not go to rescue within a quarter of an hour, he will only have one thing to entrust to you..."

"What's the matter?"

"Please avenge him!" After saying that, the commander of the military officer ignored Qu Duan and returned directly by attacking the horse.

Qu Duan was stunned for a moment, and just fully understood the amount of information in Zhang Jing's words, but he couldn't help but sneer, and then turned around and looked around: "Old Zhang is anxious."

However, the surrounding armored cavalry, including Yue Fei's personal guards, were silent when they heard the words, and they just went to see Qu Da without saying a word. Qu Da also woke up again and then laughed awkwardly.

The sun shines down from the bottom of Helan Mountain and ripples on the Yellow River again. The scene is grand, but the war continues, and the bows and crossbows are still firing outside. The people of Xixia are still cruel and unyielding. Every moment, blood is soaking the land and green seedlings on the battle line hundreds of steps away. At the same time, Yue Fei and Hu Hongxiu still lead the big crow and continue to walk forward slowly. Then, suddenly, the sound of their own horns behind them sounded.

"The Jiedu had expected this, so he deliberately handed over the command of the cavalry?" Hu Hongxiu looked back and couldn't help but reveal his doubts.

"Yes." Yue Fei did not defend himself, or was too lazy to defend himself. "But it was not so complete... I had expected that the Xixia people went to Zhang Jing's place. The two thousand central army armored cavalry were originally ready to ambush in the formation, but they only woke up when they came in front of them. On the battlefield, no matter how good the idea was, it was just an idea. People's hearts should still be adapted, otherwise the gain would not be worth the loss... In addition, the commander did not take the battle personally, so he simply asked Tong Qu to do it, and he also wanted to ask for some credit."

Hu Hongxiu nodded immediately: "The unified Qudu should have been consistent with the idea of ​​the Jiedu. The lower official just saw him turning the two thousand-armor riders, but he didn't move, as if he was ambushed in the formation. When the rear army naturally retreated to the front, he would then take a surprise attack."

Yue Fei nodded in approval.

"But it was finally the first move." Hu Hongxiu sighed for a moment. "In fact, the strategy of Jiedu and Qu Duzhuan is the best. It would be great if Zhang Zheng could tolerate it..."
To be continued...
