The Rise of the Song People of the Three Kingdoms

Chapter 662
Nonsense, the Jurchens are defending immortality, but they are not stupid, not to mention that Wanyan Zhong has the special skill of "smart general", he is obviously a general of the Kingdom of Jin who uses his brains, not a reckless man who only knows how to fight and kill.

Knowing that the whole army will be wiped out by death, I still won’t do it. The 5000-man army that attacked Lu Heng this time only had five commanders in total. Kill, now Wanyan Zhong is the only one left waiting for the entire army to be annihilated?

The Jurchens retreated and did not forget to shoot a wave of arrows back. Of course, the Fengqi Battalion also courteously shot at each other. Tai Shici just chased and killed for dozens of miles and stopped chasing. He returned to report the battle situation to Lu Heng. After all, Liaodong is still the territory of the Jinren. However, Tai Shici was afraid that other large-scale cavalry would attack Lu Heng's army.

In this way, Lu Heng Yujia's first encounter with the Jinren came to an end, and the final battle loss was about 1:1. The 5000-man Jurchen army lost more than half, and finally more than 2000 cavalry retreated.

However, the post-war statistics include that the Infantry Corps, the Dalu soldiers, the wolf soldiers, the hook gun soldiers, and the mending sword soldiers suffered the most losses, accounting for nearly [-]% of the battle losses. On the contrary, the battle between the Wind Cavalry Battalion and the Jurchen Cavalry only had a few hundred casualties in the end.

This result allowed Lu Heng to know the combat power of Wanyan Aguda leading the Jurchen, and he had a clear concept instead of guessing from the books, but the Jurchen's combat power still surprised Lu Heng.

It can be said that Lu Heng has placed the highest priority on the Jurchens. Lu Heng believes that only by passing the Jurchens of Wanyan Aguda can he be qualified to fight against the Mongolian cavalry. It seems that there is still a lot of room for improvement. .

Of course, it is not the strongest state of the Jurchens yet. First of all, this army has only 5000 people, which is less than half of the 1 people. The famous saying "Jurchen is no more than [-], and more than [-] is invincible". Is there a qualitative change? This is a question?

Is it the current combat power?Or double it?Lu Heng still doesn't know this!

What's more, the leader is only Wanyan Zhong, not the two famous generals Wanyan Loushi and Wanyan Zongwang who are on a higher level. Lu Heng just used this battle as a reference to calculate how powerful the latter two are.

The last and most important point is that the ace of the Jurchens, Tiefutu, has not yet played, and the equipment is not complete enough. This is also the purpose of Lu Heng Yujia's personal expedition to Liaodong, so that Wanyan Aguda can digest the entire Liaodong.

Seventy percent of the damage in this battle is in the infantry battalion. Lu Heng is already thinking about how to upgrade the combat power of the infantry battalion. After so many years of fighting in the north and south, Lu Heng naturally knows that the best way to fight the cavalry is the cavalry. The reason why he didn't send his own immediately The Wind Riding Camp has several purposes.

The first is to test the Jurchen's combat power. This is the first time I have confronted the Jurchens led by Wanyan Aguda. Only after fighting can I know the specific level. As the commander, Lu Heng knows how to fight. At least this is what Lu Heng has for himself. The army is still very satisfied.

The result of the test is that the Jurchen army is really strong. First, only 5000 people dare to charge and kill their own [-] troops, including the spirit of defending immortality, superb riding skills, ability to run, and the impact of charging.

Lu Heng believed that his army was the most elite army at the end of the Eastern Han Dynasty, but it was still the most elite army at the beginning of the Song Dynasty, but it was still comparable to this group of barbarians who had just come out of the deep mountains. This was because the opponent did not have complete equipment.

If it was an army of 'Iron Buddha' wearing iron armor rushing to kill, their own army would probably be at a disadvantage. Of course, this also refers to the light cavalry.

The second is to try the use of foot vs. cavalry tactics. Lu Heng has already started to explore this point since he learned that there are four major enemies. This is the first time he has actually fought against the grassland cavalry. The result is very unsatisfactory.

First of all, the bow and crossbow were not sharp enough, and they did not have an advantage in shooting against the Jurchens. This was very surprising to Lu Heng!

You must know that the compound bow of the Song Army is already at the leading level in the world. It is not conducive to the large shield, which is a specialized defense against arrows. Lu Heng can accept it, but he does not get any advantage in shooting against the Jurchens, which makes Lu Heng a little helpless. accept.

You must know that although the Jurchens can ride and shoot, they are not top-notch among the nomads, and they are not like the Mongols. Now they cannot be suppressed, so how to fight against the Mongols?
Fortunately, this problem can still be solved. At least Lu Heng has come up with three solutions. The first is to mass-produce such a sophisticated weapon as the God Arm Bow. It can start killing ordinary Qingqi Jurchens from a distance, and it can kill Iron Buddha Tu within three hundred steps!

The second way is to let Ma Jun and others upgrade the crossbow technology tree one step further, such as developing the Zhuge Liannu and enhancing the power of the crossbow. what will happen
The third way is to bring the eight-ox crossbow to the battlefield. This is no joke. Lu Heng plans to do this before the magic arm bow is mass-produced.

Later Napoleon put the cannons on wheels, and he was invincible in all battles, and even the cannons could be pulled and run. Why not?

No matter how bulky the eight-ox crossbow is, it is not as heavy as a pure iron cannon!
Then the mandarin duck array did not exert the power that Lu Heng imagined, and was broken through by the Jurchens with super high riding skills and defending immortality. The cavalry, and even his own army are elite enough to be barely out of balance.

But when the Jurchens pulled out the Tiefutu, Lu Heng couldn't imagine how his mandarin duck formation would be crushed, and now Lu Heng didn't have a good idea how to solve this problem.

Lu Heng has only one vague idea now, since light infantry can't do it, what about the mix and match of heavy infantry and light infantry?

Combining the characteristics of the four armies of 'Panlong Forbidden Army', 'Trapped Camp', 'Great Ji' and 'First Climb', Lu Heng also imagined whether forming an iron-armored mandarin duck formation could withstand the impact of light cavalry ?

'Panlong Forbidden Army', 'Trapped Camp', and 'Great Jishi' are all based on infantry armor, and the weapons in their hands are different to achieve their own characteristics. The infantry armor is equipped with a heavy shield and iron wolf. Mobility to increase resistance to impact?
Maybe you can try it, and the reason why Lu Heng insists on fighting against cavalry is because the two bloody educations of Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty and Emperor Han Ling told Lu Heng that China has always been a farming nation rather than a nomadic nation, and the development of cavalry is desperate. It can be strong for a while, but it will shake the foundation of the country!

That's why Lu Heng thought about whether there is a way of riding against cavalry, and don't rely too much on cavalry, otherwise what awaits him is the huge turmoil of the new Song Dynasty.
