Chapter 225: Jurchen's Battle of Trapped Beasts(1/2)
The autumn wind blew across the reed field, and countless Jurchens in armor stepped on the reeds and marched in the muddy reed field. The broken soil splashed onto the grey armor, and many Jurchens frowned.
This muddy terrain makes it difficult for Jurchen cavalry to spread, and some Jurchens and war horses have limited speed.
The Jurchen archer took out the arrow from the arrow pouch at his waist, opened his horn bow slightly, and looked forward.
Tens of thousands of Jin soldiers attacked the Xia army camp, and the township bravely used firewood and corpses to fill out the dirt road for the cavalry to gallop, leading to the Xia army camp.
Jurchen archers were going to provide cover for Jurchen cavalry.
The Jurchen Meng'an, a general of the Mouke level, was full of heavy armor and led a team of thousands and a hundred people to advance according to the deployment.
Wanyan Zongwang and Jin Wushu, two princes of the Great Jin Kingdom, were divided into left and right wings, and attacked the Xia army located behind the reed land.
Wanyan Zongwang pointed the spear forward in his hand, and the muscles on his face trembled because of the loud shout: "Shot the arrow!"
Tens of thousands of Jin soldiers and archers, and the kidnapped horses shot arrows in the direction where the Xia army was, and the arrows covered the sky!
The dense rain of arrows fell on Xia Jun's head like black clouds.
The Northern Prefecture Army held up a shield to resist Wanyan Zongwang's attack.
"Shoot the arrow!"
Xie Xuan and other generals of the Northern Army also issued an order to attack at the same time, giving the most fierce counterattack!
The Beifu Army, wearing a white cloak, pulled its longbow and shot arrows diagonally forward. The bowstrings made a thunder sound. The Beifu Army's bows and arrows actually reached two hundred steps, and it could also kill the Jurchens in large quantities!
From time to time, Jurchen infantry and archers fell in this swamp.
Although this tragic battle caused the entire reed land to be destroyed, a large number of soldiers were killed, allowing the reed land to be fed with fertilizer.
"Chizhanhui, you are the pioneer!"
Jin Wushu asked a Jurchen general to lead 3,000 cavalry as a vanguard, set out on the road ahead, and then his own iron pagoda was behind.
"Abide by the order!"
Three thousand Jurchen cavalry took the dirt road paved by the village warriors with firewood and soil to attack one of the camps!
The black clouds like heavy rain fell. After the Jurchen cavalry launched a charge, Sun Shangxiang and Liang Hongyu's crossbowmen took turns to strike the Jurchen cavalry in long-range attacks. The bows and crossbows woven several death nets. Each time they fell, they took away a group of Jurchen cavalry, and the three thousand Jurchen cavalry narrowed at a speed visible to the naked eye.
The Jurchen general Chi Zhanhui took the lead and got three arrows, but ordinary crossbows could not shoot through the excellent heavy armor equipped by Chi Zhanhui. Chi Zhanhui waved the big axe with the bow and arrow hanging on the heavy armor, and the big axe cut out the edge, smashing the horse blocking the front!
The mission of the cavalry of Chizhanhui is to destroy the simple fortifications outside the camp and open the way for Tiefutu!
The Xia army is in the south, and the Crow army is in the north. The Jurchens must be defeated one by one. Therefore, Wanyan Zongwang and Jin Wushu, the group of Jurchens, knew that they had reached a critical moment of life and death, and had an unprecedented fighting spirit!
Wanyan Zongwang was already the last Jurchen power in Guanzhong and Hedong areas.
If the Great Jin Kingdom was defeated, then these Jurchens would lose their existing power and status.
There were too many Jurchen people, and the roads paved by the township braves with firewood could only allow some Jurchen cavalry to pass by. Many Jurchen cavalry were trapped in the soil, and their mobility was obviously hindered.
"The Jurchens are crazy. According to the news that Ye Busu, the Crow Army of the Fenzhou towns in the north gathered at the city of Fenzhou under the convening of Li Keyong, the one-eyed dragon. It is estimated that the Crow Army also had the intention to go south to Hedong. This group of Jurchens were caught between us and the Crow Army, and they were in a dilemma. They must win as soon as possible and then go north to face the Crow Army."
Zhang Hua led Chen Gong, Yan Xiang and other strategists to the watchtower in the camp and looked down at the entire battlefield.
The Jurchen Jin soldiers everywhere pressed towards the Xia army camp behind the swamp. The rain of arrows from both sides covered the sky and the sun, and murderous aura was filled with sounds of war drums and horns intertwined.
The cavalry of the Jurchen military general Chi Zhanhui had already fought with Zhang Hua's imperial guards, and the weapons collided with them, and shouts of killing were everywhere.
Xie Xuan's Northern Palace Army blocked Wanyan Zongwang's Jin soldiers, while Zhang Hua's imperial guards blocked Jin Wushu's second Jin soldiers.
Xu Chu and Zhou Tai led 20,000 Tiger Guards, with the Tiger Guards as the elite and the third-level heavy armored infantry as the main force, like a copper wall, blocking Chizhanhui's assault.
Sun Shangxiang's Wu archers and Liang Hongyu's divine arm crossbowmen fired volleys behind the Tiger Guards, killing a large number of Jurchen cavalry.
With the attack of the Jurchen cavalry, the battle had just begun, and the casualties had reached thousands.
The village warriors paving the road ahead were even more tragic. They became cannon fodder troops used by the Jurchens to attack the Xia army camps. Their bodies were also laid for hundreds of meters, and the Jurchen cavalry were able to gallop in the reed land.
"Master, do you want your disciple to take action?"
Tang Sai'er asked Zhang Hua respectfully.
She commanded the White Lotus Army of 10,000 elite troops in this battle. When necessary, Tang Saier's White Lotus Sect magic was also a force that should not be underestimated.
"There is no need for the White Lotus Army to take action for the time being."
Zhang Hua is still waiting for Jin Wushu to invest in the most elite Tiefutu.
If Zhang Hua's intelligence is not wrong, then Jin Wushu still has five thousand iron pagodas in his hands, which is one of the two elite troops of the Jurchens to establish the Great Jin Kingdom.
Before Jin Wushu's Iron Buddha was dispatched, Wanyan Zonghan took the crutch horse and cooperated with Wanyan Zongwang's Jurchen army to attack the Northern Prefecture Army!
Wanyan Zonghan’s riding and shooting enhances his talent, allowing the riding and shooting of the kidnapped horse to have the range of an archer, and shoot against the Northern Mansion Army at 200 steps away!
The fierce cavalry and shooting suppressed each other with the Northern Mansion Army. The Jurchen heavy armored infantry led by Wanyan Zongwang was less than fifty steps away from the Northern Mansion Army and began to charge!
"This group of Jurchens is really fierce. There are swamps that are blocked by them, so they have to fill the swamps and launch an attack. My father was fighting with these Jurchens at the beginning, and his father's situation is even more difficult than I am now."
Yue Lei finally understood what kind of vicious Jurchen people Yue Fei, Wu Jie and others were facing.
The opponent launched an attack on the Jurchen group that destroyed the Northern Song Dynasty. These Jurchens knew that the situation was critical and even more fierce when they fought the trapped beasts.
"It's a pity that we met our Northern Palace Army!"
"The Northern Palace, there is no way forward!"
“There is no way forward!”
Liu Laozhi, Chen Bozhi, Sun Wuzhong, He Qian and other generals of the Northern Prefecture Army roared. The Northern Prefecture Army's talent for defeating the enemy was launched, and their blood was boiling!
The Northern Mansion Army is somewhat similar to the Yue Family Army. They are both elite corps that rose when the Hu people went south. At this time, Yue Lei was among the Northern Mansion Army and felt that he was no different from the Yue Family Army. He worked hard to fight against the Jurchens!
"Driving a long car and breaking through the vanity of Helan Mountain!"
Yue Lei shouted loudly, and the steel gun weighing dozens of kilograms shook the Jurchen heavy infantry's spear, and then shot the Jurchen heavy infantry's head!
The Jurchen heavy infantry was severely injured and immediately had a concussion, and suddenly fell to one side, splashing soil!
"Kill and kill!"
Sun Wuzhong held a long sword and slashed left and right, killing several Jurchen heavy infantry in succession!
Sun Wuzhong's blade showed a sword energy, breaking through the heavy armor of the Jurchen heavy infantry, and breaking the belly!
Liu Laozhi, the most powerful general of the Northern Prefecture Army, held a spear in his hand, and stabbed out one spear, making a sound of breaking through the air. The spear penetrated the two Jurchen heavy infantry in front and behind!
The Jurchen heavy infantry around were unbelievable. Liu Laozhi's force was really amazing. They were the iron armor and bodies of the two Jurchen heavy infantry!
The number of soldiers in the Northern Palace was not as strong as Wanyan Zongwang, but the defense line was as solid as a rock, blocking Wanyan Zongwang's offensive.
Before, the Northern Prefecture Army did not have enough troops and generals to defend the flanks, so Xie Xuan was forced to leave Hedong.
But now, the flanks of the Northern Mansion Army were handed over to Zhang Hua's Imperial Guards, and the Northern Mansion Army could concentrate on dealing with Wanyan Zongwang.
"Break it for me! All the enemy soldiers who block our Iron Cavalry of the Great Jin Kingdom will be wiped out!"
As the vanguard general of the Jurchen army along the way, Chi Zhanhui, the Jurchen general, was also fierce. He defeated the three levels of horses and resisted the horses in a row, and met with Xu Chu and Zhou Tai's Tiger Guards.
The rain of arrows from both sides flew over their heads and fell into the army on both sides. Chi Zhanhui's eyes were red, like a tiger and leopard, trying to break through the defense line of the Tiger Guards.
His troops were far less powerful than the Tiger Guards, but he concentrated his troops and attacked one of the Tiger Guards' defense lines, and the pig advanced suddenly!
However, a fierce general stood in front of Chi Zhanhui. The fierce general held a big sword. Seeing Chi Zhanhui approaching, he didn't defend and slashed directly with one knife!
Chi Zhanhui held up a big axe in both hands and blocked Zhou Tai's knife!
Zhou Tai's sword is more fierce than the other, and the sword is like a storm, all of which are fighting for life!
Chi Zhanhui didn't expect Zhou Tai to be so cruel. He thought Zhou Tai had a determination to die, but Zhou Tai relied on his strong self-healing ability and was not afraid of being injured, so he dared to fight Chi Zhanhui!
Chi Zhanhui struggled to support Zhou Tai's fierce attack.
"I don't believe he really dares to fight hard!"
Chi Zhanhui knew that his martial arts were not as good as the other party. If he continued to fight like this, he might be killed by the other party. At this time, he made up his mind and decided to fight Zhou Tai!
Chi Zhanhui was stabbed by Zhou Tai, and Zhou Tai took Chi Zhanhui's axe!
"Ahhhhhhhh!"
Both powerful generals felt heart-wrenching pain.
The heavy armor of the two powerful generals offset some of the damage, but the two powerful generals were injured at the same time!
"Hahaha, your martial arts skills are better than mine, and it is worth it to exchange injuries for injuries!"
Chi Zhanhui, who was fighting in the beasts, showed a cruel smile.
Chi Zhanhui and other Jurchens came out of the poor mountains and rivers. They were cruel and aggressive and even more daring to fight desperately.
But Chi Zhanhui's cruel smile gradually solidified because he saw Zhou Tai's wounds emitting white air, and the terrifying wounds healed at a speed visible to the naked eye.
"How, how is it possible..."
Chi Zhanhui was shocked by Zhou Tai's terrifying vitality.
Zhou Tai is strong in vitality. As long as he does not have a head blown or his heart is pierced, Zhou Tai can survive.
Chi Zhanhui was in trouble, and the wound cut by Zhou Tai was bleeding, and there was no time to stop the bleeding.
Zhou Tai did not give Chi Zhanhui a chance to retreat, and another sword was used to kill Chi Zhanhui who had decreased his force!
