Chapter 877
On Xu Wucheng's side, with Liu Bian personally leading troops to fight and defending Jurchen's [-] cavalry with [-] cavalry, the situation has stabilized.

On the scene tens of miles to the west of Xu Wucheng, Yuwen Chengdu also led [-] heavy armored cavalry under his command, breaking through the obstruction of the Jurchen cavalry.

After the formation of the Jurchen cavalry, there was a high slope where Wanyan Zongwang gathered people to form a mountain.

The soil slopes are piled up by human excavation, rolling up and down in the grassland, there are dozens of them, and their sizes vary.Small slopes can accommodate hundreds of soldiers, and large ones can accommodate thousands of soldiers.

The Jurchen soldiers held bows and arrows, stood on the side of the slope facing the valley, and bowed and shot arrows condescendingly on the slope.

"Just attack the big hillside, don't bother with the small ones. If the soldiers and horses are in chaos, they don't have the heart to shoot arrows." Yu Wencheng told the cavalry around him, and waved the phoenix wings to make gold, and charged towards a large ramp. go.

The heavy armored cavalry carried by Yuwen Chengdu is heavily armored regardless of the soldiers and horses, so there is no need to worry about the damage of arrows.But Yuwen Chengdu only wears the armor he usually wears, but his phoenix wings are waved so tightly that he can't get hurt even in the rain of thousands of arrows.

Soon Yu Wencheng killed down a high slope, and as soon as his horse urged him, he rushed out towards the slope.

Archers only have bows and arrows as weapons, and when the enemy is in front of them, they have no other means of attack.These archers couldn't hurt Yuwen Chengdu and the heavy armored cavalry with their bows and arrows, and they were like paper in front of the heavy armored cavalry.

Yuwen Chengdu only rushed for a while, disrupted the formation of the archers on the slope, and then charged towards another huge high slope.

Di Qing watched from the high slope on one side of the valley, and seeing that Yuwen Chengdu had charged to the ramp where the archers were, he secretly said: "The heavy armored cavalry carried by General Yuwen is extremely exhausting to charge on the ramp. If you go to chase and intercept them, you will definitely fall into a tight siege. Time does not wait, now is the time to charge and kill!"

Di Qing immediately turned his horse's head and watched the valley charge down. In a blink of an eye, he reached Jun Shao. Di Qing held up the spear in his hand and shouted loudly: "Brothers, it's now, follow me to charge over!"

"Kill!" The barbarian cavalry behind Di Qing also shouted loudly, following Di Qing's footsteps, and killed towards Taniguchi.

Yuwen Chengdu in the rear also knew that time was running out, so he fought with all his strength, and soon smashed six or seven large hillsides, and nearly ten thousand archers were mixed together, unable to shoot into the valley.

As for the rest of the archers on the hillside, everyone was in danger, fearing that Yu Wencheng would rush over.Although he was still shooting, his strength and attack had slowed down a lot.

Di Qing rushed to the front of Taniguchi, arrows were still flying in the sky, Di Qing knew that it was impossible to have no arrows in the sky.Immediately, he swung the spear in his hand and charged towards Taniguchi.

However, Di Qing was also prepared. The soldiers rushing forward all carried a wooden shield, which could be worn on the arm and held high to defend the chest and head and other important parts.

Di Qing was skilled in martial arts, and quickly reached Taniguchi against the rain of arrows.The cavalry behind followed closely. Although there were casualties, they were within a tolerable range.

Di Qing took the lead and rushed into the spear-shield array arranged by Jurchen soldiers and horses. Because Jurchen was not familiar with the formation, she had previously been charged by Yuwen Chengdu's troops.The gun shield formation has been chaotic, and the formation has not yet returned to the formation.

With the spear in Di Qing's hand, he pushed aside the shield in front of him, swiped the spear left and right, and rushed into the shield formation.The barbarian cavalry behind followed closely and rushed into the gap Di Qing had entered.

As more and more cavalry rushed in, the spear and shield array had become a display, and the Jurchen soldiers and horses arranging the spear and shield array were in chaos. Many people were trampled to death in front of the cavalry's charge.Seeing more and more cavalry rushing forward, more Jurchen soldiers scattered and fled in all directions.

The spear and shield array was broken in a blink of an eye, and tens of thousands of Jurchen cavalry were oncoming.

The total number of cavalry in the Han army was 7000. Yuwen Chengdu took away 5 heavy armored cavalry, and there were still [-] horsemen left, in terms of the number of cavalry.Although Jurchen had [-] soldiers and horses, [-] were assigned to set up spear and shield arrays, [-] were assigned to serve as archers in the rear, and there were only [-] cavalry.

In terms of the number of cavalry, the Jurchen cavalry does not have much advantage.

The formation of the Jurchen cavalry was only formed after the destruction of Wuhuan, and it took only four or five years for the cavalry to form an army.On the other hand, Yuwen Chengdu's cavalry is composed of barbarians on the grassland. After several years of training, they are already the most elite cavalry in the world. In terms of combat effectiveness, the Han cavalry is even higher than the Jurchen cavalry.

Di Qing took the lead, brandishing his spear and leading the cavalry of the Han army to fight the Jurchen cavalry on the plain.For a while, the shouts of killing on the plain became more intense, and the cavalry from both sides fought desperately, with swords and swords flying, and flesh and blood flying everywhere.

In the rolling hillside formed by Jurchen soldiers and horses in the rear, Yu Wencheng led the heavy cavalry still charging.However, after a long battle, although Yu Wencheng was full of energy, the three thousand heavy armored cavalry exhausted a lot of energy.The war horse was also quite tired, panting heavily.

Wanyan Zongwang was convenient to take command on a huge high slope. As the main general, he was surrounded by a tight defense.There are a total of 5000 soldiers and horses on the slope. In addition to archers, the top of the slope is also equipped with rolling stones and shield soldiers. In this case, even heavy armored cavalry dare not attack easily.

"Hmph, although this heavy cavalry is powerful, it can't fight for a long time, not to mention hitting several high slopes in a row, which consumes a lot of energy. Call me a cavalry to attack the past, this heavy cavalry is no longer scary! "Wanyan Zong looked down from the heights, looking at the heavy armored cavalry below the high slope and sneered.

Beside Wanyan Zongwang, the messengers received the order and waved the flag to send the order. After a while, several cavalry were separated from the cavalry in front and marched along the various ramps in the high slope.Soon, the heavy armored cavalry led by Yuwen Chengdu was besieged in the ramp under the high slope.

The cavalry from all over the place rushed out together, chasing and intercepting the heavy cavalry, and separated them. The heavy cavalry exhausted a lot of energy.In addition, most of the weapons were heavy weapons such as maces, hammers, and machetes. They fought all the way, and when facing the siege of the Jurchen cavalry, the weapons could no longer swing.

For a while, the heavy armored cavalry suffered heavy casualties, and Yu Wencheng was heartbroken to see it. However, the terrain was narrow and the cavalry had been divided, so he couldn't lead the troops to break through.

At this moment, a loud shout came from a distance: "Yuwen Chengdu, don't panic, Yuchi Gong is here!"

Yu Wencheng was overjoyed, and turned his head to look, but saw Captain Chi Gong of Pingyuan in the distance leading his Xuanjia Jingqi to arrive.The smoke and dust behind it obscured the sky and the sun, so there must be many soldiers and horses.

Wanyan Zongwang looked back when he heard the sound, and seeing the cavalry of the Han army coming to help, he couldn't help but change his face: "Damn it, how did Yuan Gai Suwen do things, [-] soldiers and horses can't stop the Han army from breaking through?"

A cavalry general defended Yuan Gai Suwen: "General, although General Yuan Gai Suwen has [-] soldiers and horses, they are distributed in various cities. If the Han army concentrates its forces to break through, it will not be able to stop it. But it seems that the Han army is coming. There are not a few of them, so Xu Wucheng must be empty, presumably General Yuan Gai Suwen will attack Xu Wu fiercely, maybe he will break Xu Wu."

When Wanyan Zongwang heard the words, he couldn't help turning his anger into joy: "You are right, but the most urgent thing is to block the Han army. Come on, let the archers quickly turn to the other side of the hillside and shoot arrows at the Han army's reinforcements."

The reinforcements led by Di Qing were in the west, while Yu Chigong's troops were in the east. Originally, the Jurchen archers were all on the west ramp.Now to attack the reinforcements led by Yu Chigong, the archers naturally had to move to the other side of the ramp to attack the Han army.

But the speed of the archer's transfer was not as fast as the charge of the Xuanjia Jingqi. In a blink of an eye, Yuchi Gong led the Xuanjia Jingqi to the inside of the rolling hillside.

In this case, the Han army and the Jurchen soldiers and horses were mixed together, so naturally they couldn't shoot.

While the Jurchen cavalry were hesitating, Yang Yansi, Wu Yunzhao, and Pan Fengye each led [-] cavalry to form three cavalry, and they rushed to the inside of Taniguchi in a blink of an eye.

"There are soldiers and horses behind, shoot for me!" The Jurchen archer moved to the other side of the ramp at this time, and seeing that the smoke and dust in front had not stopped, he immediately bent his bow and set up an arrow, and shot towards the front.

Amidst the smoke and dust, only screams could be heard. Hearing the sound, the Jurchen soldiers and horses shot harder, but when the cavalry rushed to the front, the faces of the Jurchen archers changed drastically.

Because they were shooting the Jurchen cavalry who were chasing after Xu Wu, and they were shooting their own soldiers and horses.

There were originally [-] cavalrymen chasing Yu Chigong and other cavalrymen, but thousands of cavalry fell under several rounds of frenzied shooting by their own archers.The rest of the cavalry was also in chaos, and almost everyone was wounded by arrows.

"Damn it, why did they come after them? Isn't it the best time to attack Xu Wu with all one's strength?" Wanyan Zong looked at this scene, forgetting the calmness of his commander, and couldn't help being angry and yelling.

However, this was not because Shi Wanyan Zongwang's command was unfavorable, but because the Jurchen soldiers were not familiar with the battle formation of the big man.Now fighting with the big Han soldiers and horses, they have to use these tactics.

Such as gun shield array, such as archers.

There was nothing wrong with Wanyan Zongwang's arrangement, but due to the unfamiliarity of the Jurchen soldiers and horses, there were loopholes in the operation of the formation.

For example, the spear and shield array was broken by the heavy armored cavalry and could not recover for a short time. For example, the archers moved slowly on the ramp, unable to strike the Han cavalry in time, but injured their own cavalry.

These are all loopholes caused by the fact that the Jurchen soldiers and horses are not familiar with the operation of the formation, and the Han army seized this loophole of the Jurchen, and laid the foundation for defeating the Jurchen in one fell swoop.

Following Yu Chigong, Yang Yansi, Wu Yunzhao, Pan Feng and other four generals each led [-] elite soldiers to kill Ponei.And the Han army was mixed with the Jurchen cavalry, and the Jurchen archers couldn't shoot.

Yang Yansi and Wu Yunzhao led the cavalry to kill the Jurchen archers first.

Pan Feng led [-] elite troops, and took the lead in clearing the Jurchen cavalry in the ramp.Yu Chigong led the Xuanjia elite first, and first broke the siege of Yuwen Chengdu's heavy armored cavalry.
