Smelting and Exploding the Heavens

Chapter 184 Tactics
Soon, this wave of charges ended, and both sides lost their original speed, turning into a close-range horseback riding close-to-hand combat.

Without the speed of the cavalry, such a style of play seems very ridiculous, but at this moment, no one can laugh on the battlefield.

Fan Zhuoyuan was still at the forefront. At this time, it was almost like a chaotic battle. Commanding was meaningless. We could only rely on the soldiers' usual training and courage.

As the main general, relying on his martial arts skills, he performed ten bloody battle styles on the horse, and when he saw the Jin army gathering, he stepped forward to kill them, forcing them to fight against the Xiaojie army in a loose formation.

Jin Bing and Xiao Jiejun threw away the useless spears in their hands at the same time, and each drew out their short weapons.

The Xiaojie soldiers are equipped with iron bones and maces, and the golden soldiers also have maces.

Both sides are armor-piercing weapons, and no one can hold back if they hit their heads.

Ke Xiaojie's army stood shoulder to shoulder, man to man, and when they swung their hammers, they smashed them vertically from top to bottom at the same time.

The loose formation of the golden soldiers is conducive to the display of personal martial arts, but no matter how strong the personal martial arts are, it is impossible to resist four or five hammers at the same time.

A golden soldier with a bearded face yelled loudly, his companion who was still riding on the horse had died in the confrontation just now, and he also pierced an opponent with the spear in his hand.

Immediately afterwards, he wanted to turn the horse's head and leave, but soon the Song Army cavalry rushed up. The effort of turning the horse's head must not be as fast as the opponent's frontal pursuit.

So he simply turned back to fight, intending to scare the opponent away after killing the two, and then distanced himself to the rear to prepare to charge.

Unexpectedly, his mace was thrown at one person, but two people blocked it with iron bones.

Immediately afterwards, four hammers came head-on, and he blocked two of them with his mace horizontally, but was hit by the other two iron bones, one hit the arm holding the mace, and the other hit his chest.

Since he was wearing two layers of heavy armor and inner lining for protection, the blow on his chest only made him feel a tightness in his chest, and it was not a serious problem.

But after being hit on the arm, I immediately felt the pain go to the bone marrow, as if the bones had been smashed and cracked.

He has always been brave and roared in pain. In the past, on the battlefield, he had scared off several Liao soldiers with just his roar. As long as these Song soldiers were as timid as the Liao people, he would still be able to draw out the hatchet around his waist and continue fighting .

However, Song Jun, who was in front of him, saw scarlet eyes full of hatred from the ghost masks.

The other party is not even afraid of others, so how can they be afraid of mere roaring.

The four hammers struck again, and before the Jurchen soldier could even take out the hatchet from his waist, he received two heavy blows on the head, cracking his skull through the helmet, and knocking him off his horse with the other two hammers.

This kind of thing happened on every front line of the confrontation. The Song Army, which had an advantage in formation and numbers, almost destroyed the opponent in a short stalemate.

Seeing this, the staff behind the front and rear of the Jin army quickly turned their horses and went back.

At this time, the golden soldiers swimming ashore from the rear were shocked when they saw this. The golden cavalry, who had always been invincible, faced the first wave of charge, and they fought more and less, but were directly defeated!
Moreover, the main general died in battle, and the command was automatically handed over to the lieutenant commanding Yudu. After seeing this, he immediately waved the flag and launched a semaphore to reorganize the remaining troops.

At this time, the second and third platoons of the Xiaojie cavalry had also jogged to keep up, but they made a slight detour, going around to the two wings of the first cavalry respectively, and attacking the golden cavalry leaking from the two wings of the first cavalry. .

The morale of the Golden Army cavalry leaked from these two wings has dropped sharply, and they have no impact speed. Facing the second and third rows of Xiaojie Army cavalry, they are almost desperate to die, watching five hundred spears on the left and right plunge into the formation , A burst of blood rained, and the people and horses fell down. Immediately, the frightened rear team turned into the front team, and retreated frantically.

And the commander of the fourth, fifth, and sixth platoons of cavalry is He Lubu. Seeing that the first [-] cavalry of the Jin Army were defeated by three waves of [-] cavalry in the first three platoons of the Jin Army, it also boosted morale , but did not continue to attack with the first three rows of cavalry.

Because there was no room for them to meet the enemy, He Lubu flexibly turned around to a small slope on the flank, and once again lined up in a tight formation on the wall, guarding the flanks of the first three rows of cavalry.

Sure enough, in order to restore the situation, the deputy general of the Golden Army reorganized the cavalry of the Three Thousand Golden Army, leaving only the last three thousand Golden Army who had just landed as a reserve team in the rear.

Then he led the reorganized Three Thousand Gold Army and rushed towards the flanks of the first three rows of cavalry commanded by Fan Zhuoyuan, intending to wipe them all out here.

He Lubu immediately slashed his spear, and the soldiers beside him blew the horn three times, and then led three rows of [-] cavalry to intercept it!

At this time, there are seven, eight, nine, and ten behind the Xiaojie army, a total of four rows of [-] cavalry. They serve as a reserve team, under the command of another general, Gu Huaizhen, to respond to the battlefield ahead at any time and monitor the progress of the Jin army. The reserve team, once the Golden Army reserve team enters the battlefield, immediately intercept it.

At this time, the situation faced by the Jin army was very bad, because they were fighting with their backs, and there was no room for them to retreat and open a distance to counterattack.

Either defeat the Song army in the next wave of frontal charge, or they can only gather together to fight hand-to-hand combat on horseback, or they can only be driven by the Song army and fall into Lushui.

Although the water is not deep, if chaos falls into it, the armored Jin army will not have horses to float in the water, and can only be drowned alive or killed by the Song army.

The three thousand cavalry organized by Lieutenant General Jin Bing rushed towards Fan Zhuoyuan's front three platoons, and it seemed that Fan Zhuoyuan was about to suffer a terrible loss.

At this time, He Lubu led three rows of dense cavalry to intercept from the flank. Seeing that the flank was attacked, the deputy general of the Jin Army originally wanted to order some of the troops to disperse and intercept.

However, for the troops that have already launched a charge, this order obviously cannot be effectively communicated, and they can only be forced to turn around, hoping to defeat He Lubu's troops when their own numbers are superior.

With a large number, but loose and messy cavalry formation, the Jin army quickly crashed into He Lubu's dense cavalry formation of [-] in three rows.

He Lubu's troops are like clenched fists, and the Jin army is like a big net.

As soon as the two sides joined forces, He Lubu's troops rushed in unreasonably with terrifying potential energy, and the golden army scattered instinctively due to the wide distance between the single riders, just like when the golden army attacked Liao Like cavalry!
He was brutally chiseled by He Lubu!

The Jin army immediately fell into the chaos of dividing left and right, the lieutenant general's order could not be conveyed to all places for a while, and it was difficult to reorganize the army in a short time.

At this time, Fan Zhuoyuan had already driven most of the thousands of golden soldiers who joined the battle first down the Lushui River, and many of them fled along the banks of the Lushui River in a panic.

At this time, Fan Zhuoyuan saw the chaotic situation in the Jin Army's lieutenant general, and immediately took out the horn and blew it in a soothing rhythm. The whole queue, aimed at the thousands of gold cavalry formations that had just been torn apart by He Lubu's troops!
