Powerful Song Dynasty

Chapter 924 Qu Duan's Apology

Just as they were discussing the pros and cons eagerly, and the atmosphere was heated, Wang Qingzhu came, still screaming angrily.

The battle in the northwest is continuing. The Song Dynasty marched towards the great army and the Xia army also carried out a series of resistance.

Li Yanxian's Fifth Battalion has nearly 2 flying cavalry and dragon cavalry armies, nearly 2 cavalry cavalry, [-] infantry cavalry, plus chariot battalions, supplies, and strong crossbows. The troops under the command of the State Capital Commanding Army, which is composed of horse troops from various tribes and Zhuang Gongzi, have about [-] people.

Li Yanxian is also the commander of the flying cavalry. He uses the dragon cavalry army as the main army and the flying cavalry army as the surprise army. He integrates the chariot soldiers and infantry cavalry of the two armies, uses the baggage carts to cover the two wings, and the chariot battalion as the front of the army. The army attacked violently, and the horse army was not dispatched to counterattack.

Originally, in the face of the Song Army's tenacious defense, Xia Jun's several attacks were ineffective, and he no longer planned to fight. Instead, he sent rangers to monitor and found that the Song Army was not advancing. After passing the news, two thousand cavalry came Surveillance nearby.

Unexpectedly, the Song army's dragon cavalry army suddenly rushed out, and it was too late for them to retreat, so they could only bite the bullet and fight.

The result was very obvious. In order to rescue his own people, he continued to invest in troops and gradually formed a large-scale battle with tens of thousands of people, which was exactly the result Li Yanxian wanted.

Even though the Song Army only had two armies, they were extremely well equipped, and they were all horse troops at the core. Tens of thousands of horse troops and thousands of infantry cavalry were definitely powerful enough to compete with any elite Xia army. .

Xia Jun said that there were [-] soldiers. In fact, apart from the [-] armed infantry, half of the [-] tribal armies were regular soldiers. Don't talk about armored equipment, it's not at the same level at all.

The two armies started a fighting battle in the wilderness. Li Yanxian commanded calmly and used crossbow arrows to attack Xia's army violently so that they could not get close to the army formation.

The dragon cavalry army was on the outside, and the flying cavalry army was on the inner layer. They used two car battalions to attack to reduce the casualties of the cavalry army.It is not as powerful as Li Shifu's chariot brigade, but it is also galloping with thousands of horses and rolling chariots, which makes Xia's officers and soldiers terrified.

The Xia army couldn't adapt at all. With the powerful cavalry of the Song army on the two wings, the powerful attack of the Song army's chariots and infantry on the front, and the threat of the dragon cavalry army on the outer layer, this battle was simply impossible to fight.

There was no suspense in the battle. The 2 soldiers of Xia's army collapsed completely. Except for a small group of horse troops who broke through in batches, those infantry who had no time to retreat were massacred by the Song army. They were not annihilated but massacred.

The five thousand pretended sons fought more heroically, not because they were really brave, but because they had no retreat.Because, in all previous wars against Song Dynasty, they fought with their lives for that pitiful status, and they were the most active in killing border people. How could they please them if they fell into the hands of the Song army?
Now, they fell into the hands of the Song army, and they were definitely unable to surrender. How could they not resist desperately?The Song army from all walks of life in Shaanxi did not like these pretending sons at all. They killed as much as they could, and killed those who could not.

The results of the first battle were satisfactory. More than 3000 Xia soldiers were killed, 2 were captured, and more than [-] horses were captured. This number is enough to collapse [-] people.

When Qu Duan received the battle report, he was overjoyed. Although he had conflicts with Xie Qian, he won the first battle after all. He defeated the 46 Xia army and won Hongzhou. The shame of the [-]th Brigade Town can also be revealed. passed.

"Okay! Now we must focus on the eastern part of Yanzhou, annihilating the main force of the Shengqiang left wing in one fell swoop, and half of the big deal will be achieved."

But he said that Gu Lihei also decisively withdrew his troops, focusing on defending Weizhou and Wu Jie's seventh battalion.

Originally, Li Shifu fell into a static defense because he encountered a great threat, and the loss was not small. Liu Yanliang's eighth battalion only had one army, but it was not that simple. The Yunyi Army was an old-fashioned forbidden army. People, together with the archers of the Four Thousand Township Army, are definitely a terrifying force, enough to pose a threat to the Xia Army near Sanyuandi. His arrival made Li Liangfu turn his back.

Li Renzhong was still insisting, and he never wanted to return without success, but Li Liangfu was shaken.His army is said to be one hundred thousand, and there are indeed so many people.

However, half of the continuous consumption is a burden. His main army is only about 4, and he is still capable of dealing with Pingqiang City. It is really difficult to deal with Liu Yanliang's Yun Jiejun.

At this time, Xia Jun had already heard the news of the official opening of the Great Song Dynasty, and the rangers of the Yunyi Army appeared frequently. They were dispirited and had no fighting spirit.

As a last resort, he could only let Ren Duoye follow Li Renzhong and lead [-] soldiers to move westward. He could not only resist the Yunyi Army, but also escape from Pingqiang City. life.

He is the leader of the capital, and it is impossible for him to leave the battlefield easily, but Li Renzhong had to leave.

On the Xihe Road where there was no movement, Shao Xing did not passively slow down his work. He gathered the chariot battalions of Yunjie and Fanluojun, and sent Guantang to the commander of the Western Guards, requesting to send him more chariots, at least It takes three battalions to launch an attack.

This proves that the battle in the 52nd brigade town has entered the eyes of the high-level capital school. Shaoxing's use of troops has always been vague, and he stayed on Xihe Road for a few years. He has a deeper understanding of the horse army and the chariot soldiers. Persistence is far better than the horse infantry.

Qu Duan has already realized the sharpness of Che Bingying. Although he has not grasped the essence, it does not prevent him from judging Shao Xing's intentions.

The Ninth Battalion was about to form a car brigade to cooperate with the Ma army on the battlefield. When the main force of the Xia army was attracted by the Song army, it carried out a quick battle, obviously in preparation for Liangzhou.

Because, the results of Li Shifu's chariot brigade in Liangzhou Toshima show that the new chariot soldiers can just restrain the horse army.

It's not that the generals of the Song Dynasty didn't understand people, but the gap in thinking made many people unaware of the innovation in tactics. As long as they saw the bright spots, they would draw inferences and use them.

It can be regarded as Wang Xiu's luck. Whether it is Qu Duan, Shao Xing, Yue Fei, etc., they are all contemporary heroes. Their understanding of new tactics may not be satisfactory, but they will never reject new tactics and new weapons. will take advantage of it.

Qu Duan also expressed his understanding of Shao Xing's request. He immediately mobilized some tanks in stock for marshalling, and sent an emergency to Wang Xiu to Guantang, requesting to transfer the North Guard's chariot brigade to join the battle. This was an apology for dealing with Wang Xiu in the past.

It is obviously not easy for him to bow his head. As a very arrogant general with personality, it is not easy to admit his mistakes even by increasing troops.
