Chapter 1003 To deal with the golden man, let him come a few ways, I will only go all the way
"This summer rain, it's a good time!"

On the Great Wall at Gubeikou, Li Yan looked up at the heavy rain pouring down, and the generals behind him were even more delighted: "God help me Dayan!"

Excluding the extreme situation of earthquake meteorites, rain and snow can be said to be the most common conditions encountered in ancient battlefields.

Every time at this time, the normal army will call for a truce, while the tyrannical army will often take advantage of this weather to march quickly, create miracles, and catch the enemy by surprise.

But now that spring and summer are alternating, heavy snow is not realistic, but a heavy rain is entirely possible, which will affect both sides. The last thing you want to see is undoubtedly the golden army dominated by cavalry.

In Chinese history, there is no example of rainy weather deciding the success or failure of the two countries and causing the cavalry to lose. However, in the Hundred Years War between Britain and France in the West, there was a famous battle of winning more with less, the Battle of Agincourt.

In this battle, with [-] archers, the British army wiped out tens of thousands of French heavy cavalry, which can be described as a miraculous victory.

Under normal circumstances, not to mention [-] heavy cavalry, even [-] heavy cavalry can easily kill [-] archers, but it is precisely because of heavy rain that the ground becomes muddy and soft. The knight's horses could not move forward effectively at all, so the heavy cavalry had to dismount to fight, but the heavy armor made them stagger in the muddy ground, and their physical strength was greatly damaged...

In addition, the French army made a lot of tricks. After the final battle, nearly half of the French courtiers at that time were killed and captured, so that many noble families disappeared from history, and Agincourt became an incompetent French army. synonymous with geography, until the more famous white flag terrier was born.

Perhaps the heavy rain had trouble with France. Later, Napoleon defeated Waterloo, and the heavy rain the day before the war was also a key factor. In comparison, in the national war in the east, it was rare that heavy rain determined the outcome of the two armies.

The most famous battle of Shangfanggu, Zhuge Liang set fire to Shangfanggu, but the sky helped Cao but not Han, and the heavy rain caused Sima Yi's family to escape. This is a fiction in "The Romance of the Three Kingdoms", not all in history.

Now for real.

"Good rain! Good rain! Hahaha! Pockets closed!!"

Zhu Wu laughed and stopped waving the flag, because the heavy rain blocked the line of sight, and the ministries could no longer see the command flag clearly, but beat the drum instead.

"Dong dong dong! Dong dong dong!"

The drums were loud, and under the command of Suo Chao, the various ministries immediately began to intensify the encirclement and suppression efforts. The two wings closed together, and the Jin army was continuously tightened.

"Go! Go!!"

On the other hand, the cavalry of the Golden Army inevitably began to be confused.

In fact, the ground was not so muddy just after the heavy rain, but the heavy armored cavalry intertwined with the infantry of the Yan army immediately realized that something was wrong, and coupled with the fact that they had repeatedly failed to break through the defense of the Yan army, they turned their direction in despair and prepared immediately. leave.

As the arrow troops acted like this, the formation of the Jin people suddenly became scattered, the front had to retreat, and the rear had to rush forward, but the pressure of the Yan army kept encircling them from all directions, and the people turned their backs on their backs for a while, screaming incessantly .

Two evenly matched opponents on the battlefield, in fact, it depends on who makes mistakes first.

Lu Junyi took the lead and killed Mouke in order to slow down the Jin army's orders, making mistakes and omissions, and falling into a disadvantage.

Wanyan Wutao made a decisive decision and personally led his bodyguards to block the jade unicorn's attack. He also wanted to stabilize his position so that the situation would not collapse completely.

But if it rains heavily today and people's hearts are in turmoil, then the situation is over and irreversible.

"Walk……"

"No! I can't go!"

Wan Yanwo's first thought was to evacuate, but seeing the tiger's eyes staring at him without blinking, Lu Junyi held the spear again, and sent an order to the left and right guards: "Let the front line give up heavy cavalry, and all light cavalry Evacuate, this king personally covers the rear!!"

"Snipe and kill the messenger so that his orders cannot reach the front line!!"

Lu Junyi's voice sounded almost immediately after him, and at the same time Yuliqing accelerated again, and killed Wanyan Wudai.

The horns echoed, and the drums beat into pieces.

The two sides fought frantically, and the casualties soared.

In the increasingly heavy rain, both sides felt that the armor on their bodies and the weapons in their hands were getting heavier and heavier, and their spirits began to become numb.

No matter how elite soldiers are, fighting under such an environment and pressure will inevitably become dizzy and have poor judgment, all supported by a single will.

Wanyan Wodai was no exception. Not long ago he was evenly matched with the injured Lu Junyi, but he was outstretched and retreated steadily. If his personal guards hadn't tried their best to protect him, he would have been stabbed under the horse.

But at the moment when the two horses crossed each other, Yu Liqing under Lu Junyi's crotch suddenly raised his hind hooves and kicked heavily, hitting the horse that Wan Yanwo led down.

"Good horse!"

How could Lu Junyi miss such a good opportunity, a faint golden radiance suddenly appeared on the spear body, it was the secret method taught by Li Yan in the academy, after so many years of learning, he was finally able to arouse the energy of heaven and earth, lightning and lightning, unstoppable.

"what!"

This time the two spears collided again, and Wanyan Wutao, who had already lost his balance, was struck by lightning. He flew up, his body rolled several times in the air, and fell heavily into the puddle in the distance. There was a puff of blood spurting wildly.

"Protect the General!"

The eyes of the guards behind him were about to burst, and they all rushed forward. Lu Junyi turned his horse's head, and the spear rose violently, stabbing the guards under the horse one by one. Yan Wu took his chest.

The younger brother of Emperor Jin was kicked so that he could no longer move, he watched a spear flash towards him and stabbed him.

He clutched his throat, but he couldn't stop the blood flowing from his neck, and then his whole body was held by a big hand, and he raised his head high: "The commander-in-chief of the golden man is dead!! Great Yan Wansheng! !"

The echoing sound rose from all directions, overwhelming the sound of rain, shaking the sky and shaking the earth, completely destroying the fighting spirit of the Jin army: "Dayan Wansheng!! Dayan Wansheng!!"

……

"Your Majesty, the vanguard army... suffered a disastrous defeat!"

"How much did you come back?"

"Less than seven hundred..."

"How could it be! The [-] vanguard troops are all elites from various ministries, but they were frustrated, so why did they only come back with [-] people?"

Compared to Wanyan Wu Yashu's disbelief, Wanyan Aguda didn't even shake his body, nor did he ask about the whereabouts of his own brother Wanyan Wodai.

The vanguard army was almost wiped out, which would lead to such a record. Apart from the torrential rain becoming a fatal factor, the capture or death of the coach must be the last straw that broke the camel's back.

Grief flashed in the depths of his eyes, but he took a deep breath, quickly suppressed it, and said coldly: "This matter will not be reported to the various ministries for the time being, and quickly gather elites to surprise the Great Wall pass!"

Wanyan Wu Yashu also knew that the third brother was in danger, and it was the time when he was deeply grieved. Hearing this, he was surprised and said in a broken voice, "Your Majesty, are you going to surprise the Great Wall at this time?"

Wanyan Aguda said coldly: "Take out the hunting skills of my people in the past. In the mountains and forests, you will never get lost. You can chase hares when you climb mountains, and catch birds when you climb high. Can't you overcome mere rain?"

Wanyan Wuya said in a shy voice, "But..."

Wanyan Aguda waved his hand: "It's nothing but, the more the weather is like this, the more we can take advantage of the enemy's unpreparedness. The heavy rain prevents our cavalry from galloping, and also makes the [-] beacon towers at Gubeikou useless. God is fair. I won’t favor the Yan people, just see if I can seize the opportunity!”

Wanyan Wuya was puzzled: "Even if we successfully attacked the Great Wall, we would not be able to march in this weather. We still have to wait for the ground to level off..."

Wanyan Agu roared: "Then don't ride a horse, go down to fight on foot. At this time, what you fight is not a formation, but a courageous spirit to take the lead!"

"The rear of the Yan army will be reinforced at any time. We just want a quick word now. Otherwise, when they march to the frontier in large numbers, and it's midsummer, what's the point of fighting this battle? After we go back, our Kingdom of Jin will collapse!"

"This time you lead the team yourself. If there are deserters in our army, they will be killed on the spot. Relatives will sit together. Within ten days, we must let the Gubeikou city defenses be lit up everywhere. Otherwise, my brother will be punished by military law when he comes back. No mercy!"

Wanyan Wuyashu gritted his teeth fiercely, and replied heavily: "Yes!!"

……

"Report! Panlong Mountain was attacked!"

"Report! The Jinshanling section was attacked!"

"Report! The Simatai section has been recaptured, the Jin people have retreated, and the main force has not been lost!"

In the camp at Gubeikou, the officials of the Yan court looked dignified.

They thought that the former army had won a big victory. After this rain, the Jin army, which is mainly composed of cavalry, would surely die down. They would rely on the Great Wall to defend and would be unbreakable. They didn't expect that the opponent would be even more crazy and press on again and again.

Hua Rong said: "In a rainy day, it is a good environment for infantry to defeat cavalry, but now that the golden men dismounted and turned into infantry, fighting in harsh environments, our army may not be used to it..."

Ding Run put it more directly: "If you want to compare the discipline of the army, orders and prohibitions, not to mention our army, the previous dynasty is better than the surrounding barbarians, but with a lot of wildness, the Jin people really have the advantage. They have so many attacks. It is time to fight for courage!"

Wu Yong said in a deep voice: "Your Majesty, I think that our army should not be exhausted, and should wait for all the reinforcements to arrive!"

At this time, the reinforcements from the rear have arrived, Xu Ning's Guangxin Army and Guan Sheng's Deshun Army are the first to arrive, and as time goes by, all the troops of the Yan Army will gather.

Li Yan listened calmly to his ministers' advice, until the scout from the secret battalion reported back again, then smiled slightly and showed the ministers: "The location of the Jin Army's camp has been revealed...all generals listen!"

All the ministers said in unison: "The minister waits for the order!"

Li Yan ordered ten civil and military generals, including Hua Rong, Wu Yong, and Ding Run, together with the two armies, marked the location on the map, and issued clear tactical instructions:

"Let him come a few ways, I will only go all the way, you lead the army to meet with the vanguard, don't bother with the others, taking advantage of the muddy ground, it is inconvenient for the cavalry to travel far, so go straight to the camp of the Jin army!"
