"Wan Yanyu (Pujianu) did not break through with the army. He and the armored cavalry stayed in the encirclement and broke off." Di Lei's officer said.
"What!" Hearing the words of his subordinates, Di Lei yelled out aloud. The chief general of the Golden Army did not break through but voluntarily stayed behind. This news was too incredible.
Di Lei thought for a while, and said to the officer under his command: "You will find a few other Jinjun generals to lead out, and check their confessions to see if they are consistent." The results of the interrogation came out very quickly, Wan Yan Yu (Pu) Domestic slave) Sure enough, he didn't break through, he was still breaking through with the Golden Armored Cavalry Army. "
Di Lei furrowed his brows deeply. He was always by Zhao Zhen's side and learned a lot of Zhao Zhen's things. He thought, since he has been chased out, he won't go back again.
If he can't catch Wanyan Yu (Pujianu), let the other generals take the credit. Hearing from Xiao Derang, the leader of the Jinjun Hezhong Road Army, Shiguduo, broke through with them, but was separated on the way. This is a big fish, Di Lei decided to catch him!
Di Lei's pursuit did not stop until dawn the next day, when the eastern sky turned pale. At this time, the chasing soldiers were so tired that they couldn't even lift their hands. The soldiers ran with pale faces and blue lips. If they weren't worried about the rebels of the Golden Army prisoners around them, they would all fall down and fall asleep.
Although tired, Di Lei's results this night were very rich. The number of prisoners of the Golden Army captured was at least 2,000. Thousands of enemies were killed.
The sky gradually brightened, and the flames of war were gradually extinguished, and the surrounding black smoke was faint, and there were piles of discarded weapons, corpses, and flaming ground trucks, and the eyes were full of barbarians.
The follow-up army of the King of Letters has followed, and groups of army soldiers of the King of Letters are searching everywhere on the battlefield. They are collecting the spoils of the Golden Army and searching for the officers and soldiers of the Golden Army who have slipped through the net.
Although exhausted, the soldiers and soldiers of the letter Wang were very excited and kept chatting all the way. Their gains this evening were not small. The capture of prisoners and the killing of the enemy were of the same merit. Xin Wang Zhaozhen was generous in his actions and rewarded for his military merits. They captured tens of thousands of prisoners of the Golden Army.
With a horse and a whip, the letter king Zhao Zhen, who was advancing on the battlefield, looked around thoughtfully, suppressing the excitement in his heart. The suffering of Da Song finally ended today! With the Jinbing Hedong Road Army and Jingzhao Road Army were completely wiped out. Now, I finally have the capital to compete with the main force of Jinbing.
In this battle, a total of nearly 70,000 gold army main forces were wiped out, and the gold army was already powerless to return to heaven. The significance of this big victory is not only military, but also political.
This battle was shameful for the defeat and defeat of the Golden Soldiers several years after the invasion. The Xinwangjun completely entered a state of full-scale counter-offensive. With the Xinwangjun, Da Song could be proud of it from then on.
Zhao Zhen's only concern is that Wan Yanyu (Pujianu), who has been fighting with him since his debut, is dead
A group of cavalry rushed towards him, Zhao Zhen recognized that it was the cavalry unit of the White Tiger Army under his command, and the leader was Zhao Xiaodao. He waved to Zhao Xiaodao, who saw Zhao Zhen and hurriedly rushed here.
"His Royal Highness!" Zhao Xiaodao's body was stained with blood, and even the clothes in the armor on his body were condensed with plasma, and a pungent, sour smell of blood and sweat spread from him far away.
"His Royal Highness!" Zhao Xiaodao rode over and said with a fist. Zhao Zhen said, "What? Did Wan Yanyu (Pu Jianu) catch it?" Zhao Xiaodao shook his head and said, "No, Di Lei and Beast Generals have been chasing down, I don't know if they were caught."
Zhao Zhen nodded, and then asked, "What happened to the last position where the enemy's stubbornly resisted?"
Zhao Xiaodao reported: "Now it's still fighting! The group of armored turtles of the Golden Soldier is still resisting our army, but now our guard brigade is still resisting. After most of the enemy troops retreated, the group of armored turtles of the enemy also wanted to break through. , But General Gao Pang and General Yan Chengfang, led by Master Wang Jin, bit them to death, surrounded them and drove them on a low-lying ground. They did not run deep and could not run fast, and they could not deploy the armored cavalry charge formation."
Afterwards, Zhao Xiaodao suddenly thought of something and continued: "That's right. Later, Master Wang Gui Shuai General Niugao and General Dong Xian also passed by, and the army from Yang Fan also came over, Han Shunfu and Yu Hualong. The soldiers and horses on the side also bite up."
"Seeing that we have more and more people, the Golden Army and the Iron Armored Army know that they can't run away, so they simply stay there, surrounded by our soldiers and horses. They are hard to fly!"
"By the way, General Wu Jun and General Liu Qi from Zhang Jun's side also came. They brought a total of 5,000 soldiers to support. I have to say that all of their soldiers are good men and they are all wounded. Fight. Zhang Jun’s men and horses also have some fighting power with their soldiers."
"The two generals Wu Yan and Liu Qi are here too!" Zhao Zhen was overjoyed when he heard the news. For these two generals, he had an almost crazy desire to be in his pocket.
"Then let's go back quickly and we will destroy this famous armored army of Golden Soldiers for anything!" "Yes, Your Highness!" An excited smile appeared on Zhao Xiaodao's face.
He yelled, "His Royal Highness, we have to do a good job now! With so many people besieging, the armored cavalry of the thousands of golden soldiers can't escape even with three heads and six arms!"
Shiguduo and Nie'er each escaped from the battlefield with a crew, but more of the Golden Army troops were defeated, annihilated or surrendered by King Xin's army.
The cavalry armies that believed in the king's army made rapid progress, flying into every place of the battlefield, like a torrent of steel, locking all the escape channels of the golden army. The morale of the army of the letter kings of all roads is high, and they are advancing bravely. Although the soldiers were exhausted after a night of bloody battles, everyone knew that it was time to beat down the dogs in the water. To obtain military exploits and trophies, they had to rely on now.
Now, the besieged Golden Army has no hope of escape. These Golden Soldiers who were desperate at the last moment of defeat are indeed the elites of the Great Golden Kingdom. Many Golden Army Jurchen soldiers chose to die rather than be captured. The broken-up gold armoured cavalry dismounted and lined up with the infantry in large and small circular formations, shoulder to shoulder to resist King Xin's siege from all directions. The Xin Wang Jun couldn't help strangling the enemy with an array, compressing and compressing the circle again and again, and biting the Jin Jun tightly like a gear.
The King Xin's army used strong bows, crossbows, artillery, carts, carts, gun formations and other weapons to attack the enemy. Faced with the golden army’s circular formations like hedgehogs, the King Xin's army used large groups of armored cavalry and vehicles. Arrays or pikemen rushed to kill, and the defensive circle formed by the golden army after another was flattened. The golden army soldiers were trampled on by horseshoes, and they were stabbed down by the forest-like lance array, and were crushed by the impact of the Mercedes-Benz car array.
The soldiers on both sides got red eyes, and when the remaining gold army stubbornly resisted and never surrendered, the soldiers of the king's army killed all the gold soldiers without leaving.
The soldiers of Song Junzhan who assisted the Jin Army turned pale. They rarely saw such a cruel war. They watched Xin Wang Jun shouting to ensure the safety of Jin Jun's surrender, but Jin Jun still resisted desperately as if he hadn't heard it.
However, the soldiers of the King of Letters had stronger combat effectiveness. They charged the white front with their weapons one by one, using the most skillful combat skills and the most efficient killing array to assassinate the enemy. The cruelty of the battle here is far greater than that of the Song army. Both sides fight to the death, and under the slaughter of the golden army soldiers by the superior Xin Wang army, the Song army is the female pageant who treats their lives. The contempt was deeply shocked, and he was deeply impressed by the combat effectiveness of his comrades in the King’s Army.
Whether they are the besiegers or the besieged and rebels, neither side takes their own lives seriously, and they are fighting desperately, waving their weapons.
Because the Jurchens in the Jin Army knew that they had committed serious crimes on this land, with bloody hands, even if they surrendered, the Xin Wang Jun could not let them go. Therefore, these elite Jurchen soldiers of the encircled Golden Army rarely surrender. Even if the final defensive circle was completely shattered, even if alone, these Golden Jurchen soldiers were unwilling to bow to the victor, but chose to die in battle.
The fiercest battle is still around the defense line of the Golden Armored Cavalry. The Golden Army's "Iron Buddha", which was once invincible in the world, is surrounded by the King of Letters and turned into toothless tigers.
The heavy armored cavalry of the Golden Soldiers each carried a mace. With a wave of their hands, a mace weighing tens of kilograms hit the pikeman. The pikemen were immediately killed by the broken bones and five internal organs of their bodies.
From the beginning of the siege, the battle for breakthrough and anti-breakout has never stopped. Those barbaric and strong armored cavalry kept rushing into the defense line of the Xinwang Army, and they killed a soldier of the Shao Song Army and the Xinwang Army. However, as the Xinwang Army’s artillery and the chariot formation joined the battle, many of the golden heavy cavalry were stabbed by the long spears on the chariots, or hit by the blooming bullets, and under the roar and the blooming waves of fire, these The corpses of the armored cavalry formed a hill.
Although the Xin Wang Jun had achieved an all-round absolute advantage, it was still helpless against the thousands of heavy armored cavalry who stood by. Hard attack is not impossible, but it will mean paying huge casualties. For Zhao Zhen, even if zero casualties are not reached, he will not pay for large casualties.
Compared with the Song army under Zhang Jun, who was decimated by the Jin army, the casualties of the Xinwangjun were minimal, but after the first attack on the heavy cavalry defense line was frustrated, Xinwangjun immediately became cautious. Zhao Zhen personally commanded the artillery battalion and the chariot formation to attack the enemy, using gunpowder and chariots one by one to gradually eliminate the heavy armored soldiers of the Golden Army.
But the artillery gunpowder quickly ran out, and there were still more than 3,000 stubborn hardened soldiers on the battlefield. Just then, a message came: "The Chinese Army has arrived! Marshal Yue Fei is here!"
In the early morning, the rising sun glowed the clouds in the sky red. On the battlefield, corpses piled up like a mountain, and the air was filled with a strong smell of blood, which made people stinky. Large groups of crows are flying around the battlefield, making noisy and strange noises.
From the east, where the sun rises, a large number of believers came in densely, and on the flag of the believers was the word "Yue".
"Yue Shuai, the main battalion of the Guards has moved north, and His Royal Highness has sent someone to spread the word, saying that he will greet you at the front."
"No need." Yue Fei said faintly: "The war is tight. You don't need to do the red tape at this time. Tell the official you contacted that I will go directly to the front line to meet the prince."
The guard was about to convey the order when he suddenly saw soldiers and horses rushing in front of him. Seeing the commander-in-chief Wang Qi flying above the soldiers and horses, he lost his voice: "My lord, your Royal Highness is here!"
Yue Fei's face moved after hearing this, and he ran out. Sure enough, the familiar figure in front of the soldier was not the lord Zhao Zhen!
Both of them rushed closer, turning over and dismounting at the same time. The two of them looked at each other, both excited and excited. For Yue Fei, the original wish of regaining the lost ground and restoring the Great Song Heshan of the Han family had been half fulfilled, and he was fortunate to have followed the right lord.
Zhao Zhen was pleased that Yue Fei’s ability was as bad as history. In just a short time, Yue Fei captured all the states and counties south of Shizhou on Hezhong Road, and surrendered hundreds of thousands of Han Chinese soldiers and a small number of soldiers. The record is poor.
The two approached, Yue Fei saluted Zhao Zhen upright in accordance with military rules, and Zhao Yan hurriedly pulled him up with a smile. "The two princesses and the adults in the commander-in-chief's mansion are very worried about your battle situation and your safety. They ordered me to come and see. Actually, you are sitting in town, I am not worried at all. Lord, you are the martial arts, except for the big gains. A complete victory, can there be any other endings? But the commander-in-chief's mansion is pressing hard, and at the end, I just ran away cheeky and touched you all."
Yue Fei said it lightly, but Zhao Zhen knew that the inside story was more than that easy. Yue Fei left hundreds of thousands of surrendered Jin Army soldiers behind him. He himself led the Chinese Cavalry Department straight to the battlefield. Seeing the exhaustion of Yue Fei and his entourage, Ma Fengchen, they must have been traveling day and night without rest.
If it is not urgent, no one is willing to do such a high-intensity rush. Zhao Zhen knew that Yue Fei was preparing for the rainy day. He knew that the Jin Army on Jingbei Road was an elite division, and he came to meet Zhao Zhen and prepare to fight Yan Yu (Pujianu) together. Of course, the military orders urging by the General Commander's Mansion and the two wives are also a reason.
Yue Fei said: "My lord, what's the situation?" "The Jin Army Hedong Han troops were completely annihilated or surrendered, Hedong Road Jin Army Telmeng and Ashe Sali were completely annihilated or surrendered, Jin Army Jingzhao Road Han troops surrendered. Most of Nie'er's department on Hedong Road was captured or destroyed. The Jinjun Shiguduo's main army was defeated and ran away more than 10,000 people. Shiguduo and Nie'er ran fast with soldiers and horses, but it is estimated that Di Lei and the beast were chasing There are no fewer than a few soldiers left. The main force of the enemy Jingzhao is surrounded by our regiments, and most of them have been wiped out and captured. Victory is only a matter of time.
Listening to Zhao Zhen's narration, looking at the terrifying battlefield that can't be seen at the end, the pile of corpses, the short spears inserted on the battlefield, and even the rising Liri was stained by this battlefield. A layer of blood red was gradually rising. Yue Fei knew deeply that he had missed an extremely cruel bloody battle.
In the bright light of the morning, people can clearly see this vast battlefield, from the Chang'an city to the vast main battlefield, full of burning tents and luggage, human corpses and horse corpses piled up like a mountain. In this bloody battlefield, the corpses of the Jin and Song armies are boundless.
Following Yue Fei's arrival, there were not only 20,000 elite cavalrymen, but more importantly, they brought a large amount of gunpowder, artillery shells and ballistas.
There was no need for infantry units to enter the battlefield anymore. Under the bombardment and shooting of artillery, ballistas, and catapults, the positions built by the Golden Soldiers’ heavy armored cavalry quickly disappeared. Under the intensive slings, artillery shells, and giant crossbow arrows, the Chalk armored cavalry of the Golden Army, who had planned to defend themselves, could no longer resist. They rushed out of their positions and swarmed out.
"Win the string!" The sharp arrows were pressed into the cassette of the crossbow machine row by row, and the special steel spring was used to pull the starting string forcefully. A piece of piercing machine string steel spring gear sounded endlessly. Loud commands sounded from all over the position from time to time: "Launch!" A harsh wind sounded, and all the crossbow machines fired at full speed.
Under the impact of this metal storm, the armored cavalry group that was charging suddenly fell to the ground like wheat. The dust was flying. Thousands of armored cavalry fell and rolled unwillingly, and their bones were broken.
The violent artillery fire spewed out like an erupting volcano, dense and uninterrupted flames poured metal flames on the armored cavalry, and the waves of fire brought them terrible death, screams and blood.
For this group of golden armoured cavalry armed with mace, the most powerful melee unit of the cold weapon era, this artillery fire, ballista and ballista attack was simply a unilateral slaughter.
Awe-inspiring was everywhere, and on the way to the charge, lay full of wounded and dead golden armored cavalry. Those strong armored cavalry, even if they are injured, are not willing to be softened, as long as they have a breath, they must continue to move forward. They were advancing against the rainy arrow face, and above their heads were dense slings, tiles, iron filings, fire bombs, densely pouring down, endlessly. The closer to the position of the Xinwang Army, the more intense the attack. The fallen soldiers of the Golden Army became denser.
Suffering a terrible blow, these Jurchen warriors are still advancing, their ranks are neat and calm. The companions fell down one by one, still advancing without fear of death, and their loyalty to Dajin Kingdom and Wan Yanyu made them fearless of death.
But in the battle that Zhao Zhen personally presided over, Xin Wang Jun would not even leave Jin Jun the opportunity to fight hand-to-hand. All the golden soldiers can only fall weakly in front of the screaming flying iron flames.
Almost all the Golden Army troops have fled, all the Golden Army are fleeing, only the armored cavalry is still advancing, no one hesitates and is timid. This army is willing to die. This army is the iron army that destroyed the Liao Dynasty and invaded the Song Dynasty!
Braving the rain of arrows and shells, the soldiers of the Golden Army Iron Armored Army fell to the ground one by one, their bodies covered the brown-yellow ground, and blood poured into the wilderness that did not belong to them.
The generals who believed in the king's army all stood on high places, holding their breath, watching the spectacular charge of the enemy's army from the beginning to the end of the killing.
