Back to the Song Dynasty as a tyrant

"There are crossbowmen in cloth, and other arms have not been found yet."

"Is Yue Shuai worried that Zong Han is hiding something?" Xue Yan asked.

"This coach is not sure." Yue Fei was about to say something more, when Yang Zaixing came back.

"Shuai Yue!"

"Gather [-] cavalry on the left flank quickly!" Yue Fei said firmly, "Waiting for my order. This commander needs you to defeat the right wing of the Jin army no matter what price you pay!"

"The last general takes orders!"

Not long after, the earth-shattering sound of war drums came from the Jin army formation ahead.

The horn echoed in the sky, and the air seemed to be burning.

Niu Gao rode his horse and ran to the vanguard.

He shouted loudly: "Boys, Zong Han is on the opposite side. Whoever gets Zong Han's head, I, Lao Niu, will personally reward him with a thousand gold!"

As soon as he said this, everyone in the Song Army team immediately boiled.

Everyone shouted: "Take Zonghan's head! Take Zonghan's head! Take Zonghan's head!"

The Jin army on the opposite side also shouted. Although the Jurchens spoke the Jurchen language, and the Khitan, Bohai, and Han people spoke Chinese, tens of thousands of people shouted, and the voice rolled over the fields like a huge wave, even hiding on Fenglong Mountain. everyone can hear.

"Order Niu Gao, strike forward and defend, don't move rashly!" Yue Fei stood on the commanding platform, his eyes fixed on the Jin army formation.

Although he couldn't see clearly, he vaguely sensed that something would happen today.

The striker of the Jin Army began to advance slowly, and the sound of countless footsteps echoed around.

Suddenly, some burning fireballs shot up from the Jin Army formation.

Those fireballs drew a large arc in the air and smashed towards the Song army's formation.

After it fell down, a small-scale explosion occurred, and the broken iron pieces inside burst out and impacted on the armor of the Song army.

A little closer, the iron armor was even broken down.

However, it is limited to within half a meter of the blasting center.

After all, gunpowder technology in this era is not well developed, and raw materials are more expensive than gold, and there is no supporting manufacturing system and theoretical basis.

The upper limit is very low.

How did the Jin Army have artillery?

In many people's perception, the Jin people are a group of barbarians dressed in animal skins.

In fact, the Jin people inherited most of the legacy of the Liao Kingdom, and the Liao Kingdom absorbed a large number of Han craftsmen who fled north during the Five Dynasties.

The Liao State not only has a gunpowder foundation, but the Liao State's iron smelting technology is much stronger than that of the Song Dynasty.

In addition, in the first year of Jingkang, Zong Han looted many important military towns in Hebei, and plundered countless Song craftsmen to go north.

It can be said that the Kingdom of Jin in the first year of Jingkang was not inferior to Song Dynasty in terms of technology.

The officers of the artillery battalion of the Song army received the order, and rode horses and galloped in the artillery battalion: "All install the artillery, let the Jin army taste our strength!"

Huge stone cannons were carted onto racks, doused in tar, and set aflame.

In an instant, more than thirty huge cannons appeared in the sky, like meteorites falling from the sky, dragging their tails of flames, and swooped down towards the Jin army.

This time the power of the cannon is much greater than that of the Jinjun trebuchet.

After falling into the Jin army formation, dozens of shocking bloodstains were torn out immediately.

Even an army formation only tens of meters away from Zong Han was attacked, and screams rang out.

Even the surrounding horses seemed restless.

Zong Han was shocked and said: "Song Jun's trebuchet can throw it so far!"

This really shocked Zong Han.

When Song Jun came for the second wave, Zong Han's heart had already sunk to the bottom.

If the fight continues like this, although the casualties will not be large, the plowing of the army formation will have a great impact on the morale of the army.

Sure enough, when the second wave came down, the soldiers were blown away in a small area where they were hit.

The people around looked terrified, if it wasn't for Zong Han's military orders, they would have turned around and ran away.

Even so, fear began to surface on the faces of the soldiers of the Golden Army.

Zong Han looked gloomy, and he roared: "When did the power of the Song Army's trebuchets become so powerful, why has there never been such information?"

No one can answer his question, after all, Huihuipao is one of Zhao Ning's top secrets.

If Jin Guo knew about this earlier, many cities in Hebei might not be able to keep it.

For example, Wanyan Sali shot Taiyuan, if there was a return cannon, even if Wu Jie flirted in the north, he would not pay attention to it.

Because it only needs to bomb down Taiyuan City with return artillery and take Taiyuan as its own, then it can cut off Wu Jie's retreat to the south and force Wu Jie to death in Daizhou.

Therefore, the advancement of military technology has brought about changes in tactical logic.

It is definitely not what some people think that as long as I invent something, I will be invincible!

Chapter 771 Heavy Cavalry Legion! (third change)

Zong Han's face was livid, and the rest of the senior generals and staff of the Jin Army also looked horrified.

Compared with the powerful trebuchets of the Song Army, the lethality of the Jin Army's iron artillery was not painful.

When everyone was preparing to wait for the third attack of the Song army in fear, they did not appear for a long time.

"No more?" Zhang Tonggu asked doubtfully.

Everyone dared not speak, lest they be slapped in the face.

But after waiting for a while, it turned out that there was indeed none.

The quantity of this kind of giant stone is limited, and it is very difficult to mine and polish it.

Song Jun fired sixty in two breaths, basically the limit.

"Let Wanyan Mengshi lead the hard army!" Zong Han gave orders to the banner bearer in front.

"Yes!"

As soon as they heard the word "Hard Army", the faces of the people around them immediately changed and became excited.

Because this tough army, among the Jurchens, is the forward heavy cavalry with spears!

That's right, it is the forward heavy cavalry.

It is not a medium-sized cavalry like Kidnapper Ma that specializes in attacking the two wings, it can directly confront it head-on.

Jin Wushu's heavy cavalry was called Iron Buddha Tu by Song people.

But this does not mean that only Jin Wushu has heavy cavalry.

As a powerful figure in the military and political affairs of the Kingdom of Jin, how could Zong Han not have heavy cavalry?

Jin Guo's iron smelting technology is much stronger than that of the previous Song Dynasty. The iron armor is well-made, and the elites of the Jin Kingdom do not lack iron armor at all.

I saw that the infantry of the Vanguard Battalion received the order of the military flag and began to separate a way.

A group of armored cavalry came out from behind.

The so-called full body armor here means that people wear iron armor, and war horses also wear iron armor.

Only the eyes of the people are exposed, and only the calves of the war horse are exposed.

More and more hard troops gathered at the front of the Golden Army, and they lined up.

Sure enough, as described in the historical data, everyone held a four-meter-long iron spear in their hands, and there were iron bones around their waists.

Soon, they were listed in rows.

The iron armor of this kind of hard army is better than ordinary kidnapper horses, but it may not be as good as the iron floating map of Jin Wushu.

The configuration of the iron floating map is probably the top match for heavy cavalry in this era, and the cavalry is connected to the horse, and every three horses are connected. Even if one of the cavalry is killed, the cavalry will not fall off the horse, and the other two cavalry will pull the horse to continue the charge.

This model, in the era of ancient cold weapon wars, was basically a land tank.

A total of [-] heavy cavalry rushed towards the forward of the Song army without hesitation.

They held iron spears and shouted loudly.

At this moment, the three thousand heavy cavalry turned into a torrent of black steel, rumbling across the ground.

No one expected that Zong Han would display a regiment of [-] heavy cavalry at such a time.

"Report!"

The scout ran back quickly.

"Report! Yue Shuai! The Jinren dispatched the Iron Buddha!"

"What!" Zhang Jiefu on the side shouted first, "Isn't the Iron Buddha unique to Jin Wushu!"

"No!" Yue Fei's face remained unchanged, his tone was calm, "Iron Buddha is what we call it, and Jin people call it Hard Army. Hard Army has very high requirements for cavalry. Jin Wushu has it, why can't Zong Han have it?"

"This……"

While speaking, the hard army has already started to gallop, like a roaring iron sea, overwhelming from the front.

At this moment, the ground seemed to be shaking violently.

The forwards of the Shenwu Army had already made sufficient preparations. They erected their iron shields one by one, forming a steel defense line in unison.

In an instant, the iron spears of the Hard Army hit like a steel rainstorm.

click...

A series of sounds of broken bones were drowned out in the neighing of war horses and roaring of steel.

I saw the heavy cavalry corps leaping up one by one, and the Song army in the first row was instantly crushed below.

Several hard troops couldn't bear the defense of the Song army, and their center of gravity was unstable and they fell down.

The weight of more than 1000 kilograms directly crushed the Song army below until the bones burst and blood was blurred.

A large piece of blood flowed out from the iron shield.

All this happened in the blink of an eye.

The hard army behind did not intend to slow down the momentum in the slightest, and continued to move forward like a storm.

Desperate screams immediately filled the area.

The Song army's army formation was pushed out of a large vacancy by this crazy impact.

In the vacancy, the bones and flesh under the armor were twisted together and piled together.

Under the violent impact, the golden army's iron spear was blocked and bent, the bullet flew up, spun in the air, and beat the dense crowd.

At this moment, no one cares about that.

The Song army swung hammers and axes to split, while the Jin army charged savagely.

This represents Zong Han's anger. He wants to break through the defense of the Shenwu Army at all costs, break the morale of the Shenwu Army, and defeat the most capable commander in the Song Dynasty.

And defeating Yue Fei in front of Zhao Guan's family, killing Zhao Ning's heart!

The combat effectiveness of this group of heavy cavalry that suddenly appeared is indeed terrifying.

Some commanders of the Jin army also used the kidnapped horse to charge head-on. For example, Wanyan Balisu used the kidnapped horse to attack the Song army's formation outside Xijing City in Goryeo.

But the effect is simply incomparable with the heavy cavalry at this time.

Even the infantry armor in front of the Shenwu Army could not resist the death-defying impact of the heavy cavalry regiment.

Amidst the sound of countless weapons colliding, the Song army's defense line was rapidly collapsing!

Zong Han, the leader of the Jin Kingdom's extermination of the Song Dynasty, the most powerful man in strategy, even if he buried all this heavy cavalry regiment here today, he would smash Yue Fei's army to pieces!

If it was Han Shizhong or Wu Jie, facing such a large-scale and powerful elite army battle, they might not be able to withstand the blow.

but!

What he met was Yue Fei.

What is it that is easy to shake the mountain and difficult to shake the Yue family's army?

At this time, even though it was smashed into a large piece of blurred flesh and blood by the heavy cavalry of the Jin Army, there was still not a single soldier of the Shenwu Army retreating behind.
