Powerful Song Dynasty

Chapter 893 Battle of the Jedi 1
Cai Yi shook his head and said, "Okay, for brother Zhizhi's sake, let's have a drink at noon, and I'll pay out of my pocket for the treat."

Mo Mo didn't take Cai Yi's words, but looked at Wang Xiu with a solemn expression, "Wen Shi, you've decided?"

Wang Xiu nodded slowly, and said seriously: "Brother Zhi, this great opportunity should not be missed, I believe you understand."

Shaking his head silently, he still couldn't accept it, and said in a deep voice: "Wenshi, I don't think it's a good time. We are fighting now. What our country needs is stability. It's not like taking risks like gambling. It's too risky for you to do things. "

Wang Xiu smiled. Over the years, how many risks he has taken, whether it was the surprise attack on Lanling or the downfall of Wang Fu, all the way to the conquest of the South China Sea, and even today's situation, he has the mentality of gambling. He does not deny this. The point is that he won.

The annals of Danqing will never condemn a successful person. He has an interest in taking risks and is confident in his own means.

Seeing that the atmosphere was not right, Cai Yi hurriedly smoothed things over and said, "Okay, let's wait until we have hot wine."

"Time doesn't wait! Yi Zhi, the captives have already arrived at the frontier, I'm afraid you are going to fight." Wang Xiu shook her head and said.

Mo Mo heaved a long sigh, he could feel Wang Xiu's urgency, but he really couldn't make up his mind, he had already regarded the New Deal as his career, and there was no room for any mistakes.

It has to be said that the conservative forces in Wulu are very strong, and the farming atmosphere is much stronger than that of Jiangyou and Shuchuan. There are unknown variables whether the two bank laws can be implemented smoothly.

In case of strong resistance, the implementation of the two-bank law cannot be implemented, or the taste of the implementation will change, which will be a fatal blow to Wang Xiu's reputation.

Wang Xiu chuckled, and said nonchalantly, "Okay, the God of Wealth won't treat you anymore, let's have wine first."

At this time, Lian Kun entered the hilly area, and he was not an ordinary person. Seeing the terrain that was not conducive to the deployment of other troops, he faintly felt something was wrong, so he decisively ordered the infantry to speed up their march and quickly enter the open area.

Zhang Zhao's face was a little ugly in front of him. He had already realized that something was wrong, so he hurriedly reported that there were several cavalry troops of the Xia army, and a large cloud of smoke was also rolling up. It was clear that the army was mobilizing, so he immediately sent someone to invite Lian Kun to hurry up. arrived.At the same time, order the horse army in front to prepare for battle.

Lian Kun's face was extremely ugly. He kept urging the troops to march faster, but bad news came one after another.

"Taiwei, a member of the Southwest Discovery Party."

"Thousands of mountains rush out of the col, and they are outflanking the rear."

"Taiwei, the Dangxiang horse army is found in the south. They are attacking my supply team."

Bad news kept coming, Lian Kun's face was pale, this is not a flat land, and now the entire brigade town can't form an array, and it can't defend at all. He looked around and said decisively: "All ministries immediately organize battle formations and send township troops to seize the two wings of the mountain. .”

Since he underestimated the enemy and made a big mistake, he can only make up for it, let the rear troops line up to resist, seize the hills on both sides to consolidate their positions, and how much more can they persist.However, he made another fatal mistake and did not report to Huanqing.

Because, he also understands that the army is unlikely to provide timely reinforcements. He can only rely on himself to hold on first and form a favorable stalemate to allow the army to have time to react.

The Xia army's offensive finally kicked off, and Gu Lihei invested more than [-] people in advance, adopting the tactic of cutting the head and tail, and launched an attack on the Song army in the open area first.

The 3 people are almost all regular soldiers, accounting for more than half of the regular soldiers he brought with him. It can be seen that he has the determination to hit every hit, and he does not allow the Song Army to have any chance to come back.

Zhang Zhao saw the billowing dust and smoke, he couldn't believe his eyes, there were tens of thousands of riders pounced on three sides, and couldn't help but cursed: "How did this group of pigs and sheep do it?"

Tens of thousands of riders were lurking nearby, but they were not discovered. It was just too nonsense. He really didn't know what to say. Was he stupid?
However, what surprised him was that there was a crowd of yellow and orange people in the sky, which turned out to be the Xia Army's infantry, which made him flustered again.

The appearance of the Ma Jun behind Pingqiang City can be considered reasonable, and they have the advantage of fast maneuvering.If the infantry can enter the hinterland, it means that the situation is not good, and the border villages are simply blind.

"Send the order, the horse army camp will fight, hold them back no matter what, and the infantry will seize the hill for me, hurry up." He was also quick-witted, so he made the right decision and decisively sacrificed the horse army camp.

A mere horse army battalion launched a counterattack against the Xia army, which is simply looking for death, but it is not meaningless. It can buy time, let more people climb the mountain to defend, and avoid the fate of being swallowed up by others.

In this battle, it was no longer possible for them to form an army, and they could only rely on the mountains to resist tenaciously. The horse army lost its meaning and was inevitable to be sacrificed.

Dang Xiong, the commander of the Ma Junying, is a member of Dangxiang, and he is also a descendant of Dangjin, the famous founding general of the Song Dynasty. Dangjia is also a member of Dangxiang Shuqiang. The five hundred cavalry composed of good family sons are well-known in the border areas, and they are the Hemendihou who were cultivated as generals.

He has never thought of retreating since he accepted the order, and the experienced Qiang officials under him are all extremely fierce, their equipment is not the highest level, but their combat effectiveness is first-class. Facing the overwhelming Xia army, they have no fear on their faces, but instead The horse rushed up to meet Xia Jun, like a stone thrown into the waves.

It is hard to imagine 500 people facing tens of thousands of people. Although they are not directly facing tens of thousands of people, they still look extremely tragic. After three rounds of arrow strikes, the Ma Junying, which should have turned to turn, has no way to retreat. Army cavalry, they have no room to maneuver.

Dang Xiong abandoned his strong bow and held a long-handled steel-smelting mixed iron rod. He was the first to charge into the Xia army cavalry, and charged left and right. Five or six Xia army cavalry were smashed to the ground by him and fell off their horses to death.

Except for the iron Buddha and iron kite, the horse army generally does not have hand-to-hand combat, and it is basically a mobile bow and crossbow battle.However, Dang Xiong and the others couldn't dodge, and they were surrounded by Xia Jun. They could only fight with all their strength in order to hold back the opponent's progress.

In addition to bows and crossbows, which are the standard equipment commonly used by the horse army, iron rods, meteor hammers, hatchets, long whips and other equipment are the mainstream of the horse army.

Hundreds of horse soldiers regarded themselves as dead people, they had no illusions about life, and put an end to all fear. They were like hundreds of tigers, roaring and attacking, constantly driving deep in the opposite direction.

If you look down from the sky, it will develop. In the wave-like cavalry group, there is a mass of crimson countercurrent, constantly advancing upward.

Xia Jun's frontal cavalry was actually suppressed and selected into a group battle. The cavalry on the two wings had not yet entered the battlefield. 500 people were against thousands of people. It seemed that a miracle had happened.

However, no matter how brave they are, they appear so futile and helpless in an environment of absolute inferiority.
