Chapter 1170 Rise of the Republic 16

The barking of the dog was sent by the hunting dogs carried by the thirty-knight-knight-Yan Road warriors walking ahead of Zong Bi and Wu Yiyong!

The Wanyan tribe of Yelan Road is one of the three Wanyan tribes. It lives in the coastal harbour area of ​​the Russian Federation in later generations, far away from the heart of Tokyo Road in Liao Kingdom. It is also very fierce among the Jurchens. They hardly know how to farm and rely on fishing and hunting to make a living. All adult men are the best hunters and are used to activities in wind and snow.

When going out in windy and snowy weather, it is not reliable to look at and listen to the ears. It also has to add a unique skill of smelling the nose. It is not a human nose, but a dog nose.

Today, because it is the north wind, Wanyan Zongbi and Wu Yiyong, who are traveling from southwest to northeast, are in the headwind. The headwind is not good for combat, but it is beneficial to the dog's nose. In the case of low visibility, the hunting dog can use its nose to capture the smell of the enemy from the human eye distance.

"Dropping off the horse! Ambush!"

Wanyan Zongbi gave the order in a low voice.

At this time, the sky was already very dark, and the wind and snow were mixed, so I couldn't see clearly anything outside forty or fifty steps. So it was a good opportunity to ambush. However, Zong Bi's order was not to ambush anyone, but to hide himself first so that he would not be caught off guard. If he had the chance, he might as well attack him.

In addition, their mission is to alert and reconnaise, and finding out the enemy's situation is more important than destroying them. Therefore, the enemy should be brought closer and see what happened.

The war horses of the Yelanlu Jurchens were raised since childhood and trained by themselves. They were very obedient. The master pressed them gently and lie down on the ice field without moving. While the Jurchen warriors each had a short spear and knelt on one knee next to the lying war horse. They were ready to throw the spear at any time!

Now it is very windy and snowy, and there is no accurate archery at all. Throwing spears is the best choice for long-range attacks. For hunters in the mountains and forests in the northeast, throwing spears is the basic means of survival, just like archery. After all, there are many large beasts that cannot be solved by arrowheads. At this time, you have to throw spears.

After Zong Bi gave the order, he said to Wu Yiyong again: "Let's retreat a little."

Wu Yiyong and his "little knights" rode Tianjin horses, both of which were third and fourth generation geldings. Horses were good horses, stronger than Jurchen horses and ran faster. However, they were not trained to the point of unity of people and horses, and they would not "sleep and pretend to be dead."

Moreover, it is useless to lie down. Wu Yiyong's men are all knights, who play horse sluts and do not throw spears. So it is useless to stay in front. It is better to take dozens of steps back. When the fight starts in front, then gallop and shout loudly, creating the momentum of the large army approaching.

Just as Wu Yiyong and Wanyan Zongbi retreated together, more than a hundred steps ahead of them, the Aguchan king of the Jurchen tribe of Shunguo also stopped the war horses. The Jurchen warrior and his subordinates who had been dealing with the powerful Wanyan tribe for half their lives did not carry a hunting dog, but he still heard a few barking dogs, but he pricked up his ears and listened carefully, and it seemed that there was nothing.

He was frozen there, just exploring forward with all his energy.

There is nothing but the sound of the wind and the sound of the sea.

However, the confrontation with the Wanyan family over the years has made him very alert and he has an inexplicable battlefield intuition.

Intuition tells him that there is danger ahead!

He pulled out his hand knife and waved it in the air for a moment, then raised his leather shield and protected him in front of his body.

Seeing Ah Yuchan waving his hand knife, more than 30 Shun Kingdom Jurchen soldiers scattering behind him drove their horses to approach him.

Ah Yuchan’s mission is different from Wanyan Zongbi and Wu Yiyong. He did not come out to reconnaise, but made way for the army. When he encountered the enemy, he naturally had to concentrate his troops to expel him.

More than thirty cavalry gathered together, and the dispersed front was smaller, and the military density was greater. It would definitely be more beneficial when the short-term battle was connected. Ah Yuchan still took the lead, carefully shrank his body behind the horse's neck, and used a shield to cover his head and face. Then drive the horse and move forward at a fast pace. In this way, once the opponent is found, you can start an attack immediately.

The movement of the thirty-year-old war horses walking quickly was also very loud, and they could not hide the lurking Yalanlu Jurchens. However, they were too wide, just in a group of two, so there were only two short spears that were thrown at Ah Yuchan and others. They broke through the wind. Before Ah Yuchan could react, the tip of one of the spears pierced the neck of the war horse under his crotch. The war horse was in pain and screamed in scattered, as if it wanted to run, but suddenly it hit the ice again. Ah Yuchan threw a dog to bite the ice, but it was nothing serious. There was also a short spear that flew towards another Jurchen warrior beside Ah Yuchan, and it was pierced with a puff, but it must have been cold. This guy was not dead and fell to the ground with a scream.

The remaining twenty-seven Jurchens of Shunguo were also brave. They held up their rifles and drove their horses to charge, rushing towards the two Yelanlu Jurchens who had just thrown out their short spears.

While the two Yelanlu Jurchens were throwing spears, their war horses had already stood up. Now, seeing that something was wrong, they quickly rolled onto the horse and wanted to escape, but the speed could not be increased. In a blink of an eye, they were caught up by the Shunguo Jurchens, knocked down on the horse, and lost their lives. One of them was also led and sent to Ah Yuchan. When Ah Yuchan saw the saddle and various equipment hanging on the horse's back, he knew that he had met the Jurchens.

"It's a girl who has a girl!" He shouted while climbing onto the war horse, "Be careful, you guys, you're a girl who has a girl who has a girl who should be a bastard in Wanyan's tribe!"

Almost at the same time, another Shunguo Jurchen soldier shouted, "In front, the enemy attacks, it's a brigade!"

It turned out that Zong Bi and Wu Yiyong began to charge. Although there were only fourteen horses, they were very powerful. They were lined up in a row, and everyone was galloping in hand with horses.

It is actually very adventurous to ride a horse on the ice. If you accidentally lose your hooves, you will lose your hooves. Moreover, the visibility is still very poor now. However, Wanyan Zongbing has discovered that there are a large group of enemy cavalry in front of you!

In this case, if you want to rush forward and fight, you will die. Wanyan Zongbi knew that these knights who followed him were not good at fighting, and charging was their specialty.

Escape or strike now!

It is not possible to escape. Before you can figure out the details of the enemy, you just ran away in a daze. How can you report it when you go back?

It’s better to charge! Anyway, the God of Heaven bless everyone. So Wanyan Zongbi immediately issued an order to attack the array.

"Welcome the enemy! Crash!" Ah Yuchan was not showing weakness and immediately issued an order to charge.

The two sides soon collided. This was the first battle between Wu Haogu's knights and the Jurchen cavalry! Fourteen horsemen and knights faced the thirty horsemen!

On Wu Yiyong, except for Wanyan Zongbi, who is already an adult, the others are all teenagers. The oldest is Wu Jie, who has just turned 20. They are not as good as the warriors of Shunguo Jurchen in terms of physical strength and battlefield experience.

Although these Jurchens in Shun Kingdom did not have the surname Wanyan, they were also born like a vicious and vicious person! In history, Yelu Zhangnu's rebellion was defeated by the Jurchens who surrendered to Yelu Yanxi, which shows their brute force.

However, today Wu Yiyong and others did not compete with the Shunguo Jurchens, nor did they compete in riding and shooting, but just rode horses to assault. Although they were small, the war horses under their crotch were strong Tianjin horses, and they held slender and elastic horses in their hands. They had been practicing the skills of riding and sprinting in the Knights elementary school. They had already mastered the various skills required for wall-style charges. The fourteen horses lined up, like a wall full of spears, and collided head-on toward the Shunguo Jurchens!

A fierce collision happened immediately! Wu Yiyong, who had long had a battlefield experience, thought nothing at this time, just silently chanting the blessing of the law of heaven. The wall-style charge, the competition is not martial arts, but discipline, luck and the physique of the war horse.

Wu Yiyong's horse did not stab anything, but the war horse under his crotch suddenly hit another Khitan Ma Shun country, riding by another Shun Jurchen warrior, who was killed by the Shun country. He lost many good horses in the process and could not replenish the Jurchen horses, so many people rode on the Khitan horses. In fact, it was also a good horse, but it was still much worse than the fourth generation of Tianjin horses that Wu Yiyong rode. Moreover, Wu Yiyong had already raised the horse speed as fast as possible before the impact occurred. It must have been much slower than when charging on land, but it was much faster than the Shun country Jurchen cavalry that rushed towards him.

Two horses collided, and the winner was right!

The Tianjin horse running at high speed immediately knocked over the Khitan horse that had not yet been lifted. The horse was overturned, and no matter how awesome the warriors were, they would be useless. If they were not trampled to death by the horse's hooves, they would be lucky.

After knocking over the opponent, Wu Yiyong still drove his horse and didn't go to see if the opponent was trampled to death (in fact, the man was not trampled to death, but just broke his knee and could no longer ride a horse). Do you have to make up for the whole family? Years of training have become a habit. When you go to the battlefield, you just charge in a formation and run away! After running, you don't look back and rush again. Now it's not a battle between the two armies, but a scout.

Now Wu Yiyong and his team broke through the enemy's blockade by the long-distance horse. Of course, they had to go as deep as possible to find out the truth.

While galloping on the horse, Wu Yiyong observed left and right, and found that there were twelve cavalry following him, that is, a brother met an unexpected situation! However, Wu Jie, Ma Kuo, and Wanyan Zongbi were still there.

Before he could be sad for his brothers, Wu Yiyong carefully controlled the war horse and ran forward. Not long after, a moving fire dragon appeared in the wind and snow ahead.

These are countless Khitan warriors wearing torches, lined up on the ice, and the number of people is probably tens of thousands!

The Khitans actually took a desperate bet, and on this snowy night, they walked around the impregnable Lushun Pass Great Wall!
