Back to the Song Dynasty as a tyrant

Page 713

Just think about it, can you run with sixty to seventy catties of heavy armor?

Can't run!

So basically by walking rhythmically.

But now at such a critical moment, Song Jun's infantry almost trotted all the way.

Under the terrifying pressure of the Xixia Iron Kite Army, everyone's adrenaline surged instantly, as if the blood in their bodies began to burn.

The first capital, the second capital, and the third capital immediately lined up three lines of defense in the front.

Bang bang bang, the iron shields of the doors hit the ground, making a clanging sound and kicking up dust.

But the iron kite rushed up in a blink of an eye.

After tearing apart the Song Army's forward, Iron Harrier's speed obviously reached the fastest.

Once the heavy cavalry hits the speed, it is very scary.

The five hundred iron kites were about ten meters apart from each other, and the sound of horseshoes beat the ground like dense iron rain.

This heavy cavalry, founded by Li Yuanhao himself, beat the Song Army to the ground at Sanchuankou when it first appeared on the stage. Afterwards, at Sanchuankou and the battle of Yongle City, the iron kite showed its terrifying power.

During the more than 100 years of war between Song and Xia, this cavalry has shown dazzling brilliance many times.

The first capital, the second capital, and the third capital have just formed their formations, and there is hardly any time to make any psychological preparations. The iron kites have already rushed over.

Boom boom boom...

The terrible impact immediately penetrated the defense of the first row.

Under the heavy knife, Song Jun's ribs were broken and he vomited blood.

The defense of the second capital was also broken down.

The iron harriers in the back quickly replenished, completely crushing the second capital.

In a blink of an eye, when we arrived at the third capital, the iron kite fell off the horse.

But still shot down.

This is a very helpless thing, Song Jun has no time to prepare the spear.

But the first three all bought time for the latter.

The soldiers of the Fourth Capital and the Fifth Capital formed a staggered horizontal line behind, with iron shields and long spears stretched out.

Soldiers of the [-]nd Battalion next.

Their movements are very skillful, as if they are listed one by one according to the program, full of the beauty of metal machinery.

When the iron kite rushed over again, a war horse immediately rushed to the spear and wailed.

When some war horses were about to arrive, they saw the sharp spear heads and began to slow down uncontrollably.

The iron kite that hit the front collapsed, and the impact frenzy slowed down at a speed visible to the naked eye.

Song Jun's infantry armor immediately began to charge forward.

The decelerated heavy cavalry may not win the battle in front of the heavy infantry, otherwise the golden cavalry would not dismount and fight on foot at close range.

Different arms have different advantages.

The battlefield quickly became chaotic.

The armored cavalry of the Song army not far away had already completed their roundabout turn. They rushed towards this side frantically, and quickly rushed into the iron kite army that had slowed down.

I don't know when the killing took place, but both sides killed extremely tragically.

The Song Dynasty was almost not defeated, and almost all of the last five hundred iron kites were killed.

Li Yu is a coward again, seeing that even the iron kite was killed, he turned around and ran away.

In fact, he was too worried. Now Liu Rui's men have no energy to pursue. If he can grit his teeth and smash the last force, it is not certain who will win.

But he ran away.

If it were Li Yu from before, he might not have run away.

He ran now entirely because he had been cast out of the shadow by Zhao Ning before, and he had already developed psychological fear of Song Jun.

Coupled with the iron kite being blocked, it made him panic even more.

It was approaching evening at this time, and the main force of the Song Army had pushed into Youzhou City, even to the center of the city. This was the farthest the Song Army had pushed these days.

The corpses of Xixia soldiers are everywhere in the streets and alleys, and children and women are crying in the corners.

The wild dog on the side of the road barked a few times, then ran to the corner to eat the corpse.

The sound of weapons fighting and screams could be heard at the end of the road.

Xiao Heda held a blood-stained mace in his hand, surrounded by his personal guards, rushed into it like crazy.

I have to say that this person is also extremely brave in battle, and has repeatedly fought with the Xixia people, over and over again.

There is only the last persistence left in Youzhou City.

Li Yuyi did not wait for reinforcements.

Li Yu ran, he ran, he didn't run to the main barracks of Xixia, he ran to the barracks of Zhao Guan's family.

When it was getting dark, Zhao Ning was inspecting the army, and the latest military newspaper from Youzhou arrived.

"Youzhou is dead in name only, and all resistance will be crushed tomorrow!" Zhao Ning was quite satisfied.

Tomorrow's decisive battle, the combat power of Youzhou Xixia Army will be completely destroyed, which means that Zhao Ning will open up with Li Qianshun without any worries.

At this moment, Fan Zhixu suddenly ran up and said, "Your Majesty, Li Yu is here."

"Who?" Zhao Ning thought he heard it wrong.

"Li Yu."

"Didn't he go back to Li Qianshun?"

"He said he was going to turn from darkness to light."

Zhao Ning was stunned, and suddenly remembered that Liu Kai mentioned in the military newspaper just now that there was a Xixia army going to the northeast of Yuzhou City today, preparing to surprise the Tianwu army from the flank.

"Let him come over."

Not long after, Li Yupidianpidian ran over.

"Foreign ministers see the emperor!"

"Why are you back?" Zhao Ning already knew it, but asked knowingly.

"The foreign minister originally went to Li Qianshun's barracks, and delivered the letter to Li Qianshun according to the emperor's order, but..."

"Why, Li Qianshun abused you?" Zhao Ning laughed.

"But the foreign minister suddenly missed the emperor very much. When the foreign minister arrived at Li Qianshun's place, he suddenly realized that the emperor is the number one sage in the ages. Like a fish out of water, it can't breathe."

Zhao Ning cursed in his heart: Damn you!

You are a big man, can you speak normally!

"The foreign minister thought in his heart, it turned out that the foreign minister had already convinced the emperor and could no longer leave the emperor. Taking advantage of Li Qianshun's inattention, he left the barracks and came straight to the emperor. The foreign minister was willing to go through fire and water for the emperor. !"

With that said, Li Yu knelt on the ground and put his forehead on the back of his hands, looking very loyal.

"Loyal minister?" Zhao Ning glanced at him and smiled, "So, you want to be loyal to Song Dynasty?"

"I will die!" Li Yu immediately shouted loudly, just like the officials in the court.

Every word of his exudes the smell of a loyal minister, and it seems that his worship of Zhao Guan's family is like a surging river.

"Then commanding all the troops today, going to the northeast of Youzhou City, and raiding our army, is he also willing to die for me?"

Zhao Guanjia's face immediately turned cold, and even his voice also turned cold.

Chapter 1057

Li Yu's heart was shocked. How did the dog emperor know that he did it so quickly?

"Are you thinking in your heart, why did I conclude so quickly that you did it?"

"No, no, foreign minister... criminal minister... criminal minister..." Li Yu was a little incoherent, "The criminal minister was instructed by Li Qianshun, and he let the criminal minister go. The criminal minister dare not refuse."

"Then why don't you lead the army and come directly to defect?"

"Criminal..."

"I ask you questions, and if you answer truthfully, I will keep your head."

Li Yu immediately said: "Please make it clear, Your Majesty!"

"How many iron kites does Li Qianshun have?"

"This……"

"do not know?"

"At least five thousand!"

"There are so many?"

"In recent years, Li Qianshun has mined a lot of iron ore in Xiazhou and Youzhou!"

"You said at least five thousand, could it be more than five thousand?"

"Only more or less!"

Five thousand heavy cavalry, spread out on the ground, with a distance of ten meters between each horse, that is a legion with a depth of about 500 meters and a width of about 1000 meters.

Such a legion is running wildly on the wide plain, that is the real torrent of steel!

"What is the total strength of Li Qianshun?"

"At least 15 or more, the Chief of Staff has made a special trip to inquire, about [-], and the number of cavalry is [-]!"

"The number of cavalry is [-]?" Zhao Ning was calm on the surface, but his heart was shocked.

The number of cavalry accounted for one-third!

This ratio is very high, and it is such a large-scale army.

You know, there are 30 troops in Shaanxi, and the total number of cavalry is only [-].

It's just because the Song Dynasty still lacks war horses. Although many horses have been smuggled from the west over the years, the current battle line is very long. Both Yue Fei and Han Shizhong need a large number of cavalry.

However, there are more war horses in Xixia than in the Kingdom of Jin, and there are absolutely enough war horses.

Now Zhao Ning is really eager to kill Xixia.

Get rid of Xixia, and the Song Army will never be short of horses, and there will be as many cavalry as there are!

"You just said that you made a special trip to inquire?"

"Yes, I went back to Li Qianshun's place yesterday and made a special trip to inquire about it, and asked many people to insinuate."

"What are you asking about this?"

"It's all in preparation for defecting to His Majesty."

Good guy, this product was originally prepared.

If I said that I would kill him just now, he would say that he has important military affairs.

This is to leave a way out for my possible failure in the battle today!

"What about armor?"

"Almost [-]% of them wear armor."
