I am Da Song

Chapter 153 The Magnificent Battle

The troops all over the mountains and plains belonged to the bandit Wang Shan, who claimed to have 70 troops and [-] chariots.

Everyone knew that he was bragging, it was no different from Cao Cao's so-called 80 army.

This belongs to the once proud, the world is all dogs.When he was crazy, he even dared to brag that he wanted to win Tokyo.

In fact, his followers are only between 10,000+ and 20.

But his 20-strong army really unfolded, and its grand and mighty scale is very different from that of the Song army.

In the battle of Taiyuan last year, including Zhongshizhong, the Song Army had several 10,000+ troops rushing to Taiyuan to help, and fought fiercely with the Jinren West Route Army near Taiyuan.

The so-called 10,000+ army of the Song Army, excluding the empty pay, was even less than [-] in size, and was crushed by the Jin Army time and time again in just one day.

Today's battle really had a great impact on Han Shizhong. He has been in the army for more than 20 years and has never seen such a huge array.It turns out that an army that doesn't pay for nothing can be so majestic and magnificent.

Wang Shan's 20-strong army array stretches for tens of miles. Even on the endless plain, human eyesight cannot see where the boundary of this army is.

But it was not only Han Shizhong who was terrified, but even more terrified and bewildered were the bandits from Hedong.

In fact, they lined up here, not to meet any army at all, but to besiege Wuzhi City.

Wuzhi is on the edge of the Yellow River. It controls three rivers in total. The most important one is the Yellow River, and then the Qin River flows into the Yellow River from northwest to south. On the other side of the estuary is the Bianhe River, the most important river in Tokyo.

Here is not only the confluence of three rivers, but also a plain where the Yellow River impacts, and the grain production is extremely rich.

It can be said that controlling this place not only controls the grain production area but also controls the throat of Tokyo water transport.It can prevent the Tokyo army from going east along Hebei.

The bandits from the east of the river were bound to win here, and after going south from Taihang, they launched a battle, intending to force Wuzhi to surrender.

But I don't know which nerve in the county magistrate's head made a wrong answer. Facing the pressure of the "70" army, he refused his own side's persuasion to surrender.

The angry group of thieves immediately launched a fierce attack, trying to crush this stubborn stumbling block into powder with the momentum of Mount Tai.

But when the siege was in full swing, the large-scale Song army cavalry appeared in the sky like a red tide, and the Zhu flag flying on the front line seemed to dye the sky red.

Thousands of horses are galloping, iron cavalry are criss-crossing, and the whole earth is shaking.

The group of thieves turned in despair and panic, and there were only waves of countless Song army cavalry holding high banners, the sound of horseshoes was deafening, and the ground ahead shook.

A stubborn leader yelled: "Steady your ground, the opponent is full of mobs. Before the fight, they will all fall off the horse in large numbers. As long as I don't mess around, I will definitely win a big victory today!"

What responded to him was a wave of disintegrated soldiers like a tide. Tens of thousands of bandits didn't listen to the dispatch at all. When they saw the overwhelming cavalry approaching violently, they turned around and fled immediately.

Most of them are a group of farmers, and the most elite are just a group of thugs who have killed people. Their limited knowledge never thought that one day they would face a decisive battle of this level.The enemy's iron cavalry, banners and armor, illuminate the world!This is not where I should be!I should be in a countryside where dozens of people bully orphans and widows and rob their homes.Instead of fighting against the overwhelming cavalry with flesh and blood!
Is this something human can resist?

Countless people cried and fled, using both hands and feet, only hating that they only had two feet.

Mother, the outside world is too dangerous, I want to go home!

It is impossible to go home, and entering the destination ahead of time is the fate of countless people today.

Han Shizhong took the lead, and he really had the demeanor of being the champion of the three armies.For the victory of this battle, he also risked his life, the offensive was violent and violent, and anyone who was the sharp edge would die instantly.

The bravery of the general greatly inspired the fighting spirit of this cavalry unit.The Jingsai iron cavalry advanced all the way, the flags were flying high, and the morale was like a rainbow.

Although as the group of thieves discovered, the technical and tactical level of this cavalry is extremely low, and many people will fall off the horse even if they hold the horse's neck.

However, the organization and cohesion of this cavalry greatly concealed the lack of personal force of the soldiers.

On the battlefield, this cavalry strictly followed the general's orders, and under the military orders, there was no retreat.Even if there is a certain phalanx in front of them, and the cavalry of the Song Army is not strong enough to break through the enemy's formation, the cavalry will still move forward according to the military order, at most bypassing here, and going deep into the enemy's hinterland.

This scene was really terrifying in the eyes of the bandits. The bandits behind only saw the moment when the two armies collided in front, and a large number of bandits were overwhelmed.

All the eyes were tall iron cavalry, holding up the red flags all over the sky to chase and kill the rout soldiers. The cavalry swept across the formation of their own, and advanced like a wave of steel in the formation.The proud iron cavalry of the Song army stepped on the rebel defense line for several miles, stepping on countless corpses and marching forward.

And those phalanxes trapped among the cavalry were even more terrified. At first they resisted resolutely, but after half a quarter of an hour, they found that all directions were full of banners and armor, illuminating the enemy troops in the sky and the earth.

A quarter of an hour later, they couldn't even see the friendly soldiers behind them, and on both sides were teams of cavalry leaping past.The banners raised high in all directions even obscured the light and surrounded them.

After two quarters of an hour, all resistance fell apart, and I really don't blame them.It had been a full quarter of an hour, and they were surrounded by iron cavalry, with enemy banners in all directions, and no friendly soldiers could be seen.

Thinking of the few dozens of people waiting for me to face this endless cavalry, everyone was desperate.

Without extremely strong military discipline and the will to fight to the death, it is really difficult for a mob to resist this kind of fear.

Even if Zhang Xian of the Shenwu Youjun was able to defend his position in the face of the Jin army that overwhelmed him, he believed that countless soldiers around him were firmly resisting.The friendly forces behind him are bound to launch a counterattack, which can turn the world around.

But the bandits in the east of the river did not have any of the above points. Facing the endless cavalry, most of them turned around and fled, and the rest of them knelt down and surrendered.

This battle was a battle of Han Shizhong's prestige. He took the lead and did not retreat half a step. Two horses were killed in the battle, and one spear and sword were broken.

This brave general who won the three armies insisted on fighting from the beginning to the end with his own actions. Wherever the resistance was fierce, he would lead his troops to rush there.

He personally beheaded four generals and captured three flags.After the fight, the enemy general saw the blood-stained bodyguard cavalry, and Yaoyao turned around and fled.

Han Shizhong also had no other choice. He was very aware of the situation of his Jingsai army. If he could not become the sharpest of the whole army, this fledgling cavalry would not be able to achieve devastating results.

Their combat power is completely different from that of the Shenwu Youjun.

Therefore, Han Shizhong must use his courage to decide the outcome of this battle.

His hard work finally paid off at dusk.Wherever his flag went, the enemy was invincible.The gang of thieves really didn't want to fight this madman to the death.

Moreover, the group of thieves fought fiercely for too long, and it was difficult for their unruly characters to accept this kind of boring fighting for days.At sunset, the group of robbers loosened their spirit, and the boundless phalanx began to collapse. They were chased and killed by Wu Yangyang, the cavalry of the Song army, and the routs spread all over the mountains and plains.
