Chapter 391 The disadvantages of the military system in the Northern Song Dynasty (page 12)

In fact, other generals in the Northern Song Dynasty were not without legion talents. They also activated their own legion talents, but their legion talents were far less effective than Li Hong.

The legion talent effects of General Zhu Jue and General Lin Xi are to strengthen the reaction ability of his soldiers and the soldiers' ability to grasp the surrounding environment respectively.

To be honest, these two legion talent effects are quite good blessing effects. For Xinghan, they are definitely used to lead the assault cavalry. As long as they are developed to a certain extent, they are definitely not weak.

These two talents are actually comprehensive enhancements to reaction and response. What the cavalry lacks most during the charge is these abilities. If they can control the landing point of the attack, they can cause very powerful damage by charging and accelerating. Array effect.

It can be said that they are all very powerful blessing effects, but how to put it, no matter how good the talent is, it depends on who uses it. There is no problem with these two generals themselves.

The problem lies in the military system of the Northern Song Dynasty. The cavalry they came from was not weak in the Northern Song Dynasty, but there were not many places to produce horses. Almost all of them were heavy infantry and archers.

It's not that this kind of configuration is not good. Ordinary cavalry may not be as effective as them in pushing through a city wall with such momentum.

But for General Zhu Jue and General Lin Xi, they can only lead infantry and not cavalry, which is a complete waste of their legionary talents.

It is precisely because of their mismatched expertise that they cannot become commanders of the army.

But no matter what, General Zhu Jue and General Lin Xi deployed their legion talents, which meant the beginning of the entire army's assault.

At the moment when the forwards of both sides were intertwined, the archers on both sides released the bowstrings of their strong bows in an instant.

However, it was just a wave of arrows, but it clearly showed the difference in the quality of the soldiers on both sides. Although Yu Jin also used bows and arrows, the arrows were almost sent out in one wave, and the arrow rain formed was also the same. Intensive, without any clutter.

Although the Northern Song Dynasty was also very dense, the time gap caused by the messy intervals made it possible for their arrow rain to be avoided.

However, the forwards of both sides had no intention of evading. The huge shield in the hands of the shield-wielding guard could withstand an attack of the level of a crossbow without any damage. The rain of arrows of the level of a crossbow could also be withstood without any damage. The steel plate in the center of the large shield could also be withstood without injury. hurt.

Although the imperial guards in the Northern Song Dynasty were slightly inferior, they were the purest defensive force and they also had no intention of avoiding them.

The rain of arrows fell on both sides, with almost no effect.

"Continue to fire arrows!" Yu Jin commanded his soldiers to shoot three waves with a calm expression.

The defensive power of the Imperial Guards of the Northern Song Dynasty was no longer a secret, so he did not expect the arrow rain to cause any serious casualties. He just wanted to plant a seed for these Imperial Guards to make the arrow rain ineffective.

"Kill! Kill! Kill!"

There is no shortage of veterans in this world who are too lazy to plant land and are born to go to the battlefield. The blood and murderous intent on the battlefield can give them the real feeling that they are still alive.

This is true even in the world of the Song Dynasty. These veterans are all elite veterans who followed Yue Fei and pushed the Jin and Liao countries equally.

They were forced to retire due to age restrictions, but after the restrictions were later relaxed, they joined the army again and became soldiers in Yu Jin's hands.

They like Yu Jin's training method, which allows them to clearly feel that their own qualities are constantly being strengthened.

They were in the first row, holding large shields with both hands, roaring and charging forward.

Their fighting method is very simple. It is enough to shrink behind the shield, bump into them directly, sneak in, and kill the opponent with melee combat.

Their gauntlets and steel-covered cowhide boots, combined with their strength, would break the opponent's tendons with just one blow.

Relying on the powerful defense and power explosion that left the Northern Song Dynasty Imperial Guards completely unresolved, the shield-wielding Imperial Guards directly knocked away the Northern Song Dynasty Imperial Guards' forwards.

However, it was only limited to the collision. Both sides were solid iron lumps, and there was no way to tell the winner in the melee.

But under the outbreak of the shield-wielding guards, the situation is slipping towards them little by little. Although this process may take one to two days before there is an obvious result, they do have a slight upper hand.

"Hey!" Zhu Jue waved the long knife in his hand, trying to use the height of his war horse to cut off the head of the shield-holding guard in front of him.

However, the opponent just shrank slightly and raised the big shield in his hand slightly. His long knife fell directly on the big shield. The next moment, the sparks bursting out from the shield made him feel what it meant to be chilled.

"Where are these equipment produced from?"

Zhu Jue felt suffocated. The equipment of the Northern Song Dynasty imperial guards had always been better than that of the rebels. Even the Jin and Liao countries were far away from them in terms of equipment alone.

But these enemies in front of them are different. Not only the equipment, but also the average quality of the soldiers seems to be much better than them.

In this regard, when they were under Han Shizhong, they heard Han Shizhong's sorrow more than once.

Things like strategy and tactics can be solved with wisdom, but things like national strength and war material reserves really cannot be solved.

Especially when their equipment is already very good, the opponent can still be a level better than them. This gap is enough to make people who really understand war feel chilling.

This is also the reason why Han Shizhong was holding back before. Without enough troops, he was not sure of victory.

To put it bluntly, the art of war can be summed up in just four words: the strong bullies the weak. He was not sure of defeating these rebels named Xinghan.

It was this stability of staying put that became one of the reasons why he was replaced. The reason why he was replaced was not only Zhao Gou's problem.

Once the powerful generals were stationed on the border for too long, the emperor named Zhao would always feel uneasy.

The yellow-robed family's history of rebellion always makes people have huge doubts about the loyalty of the generals.

Just when Zhu Jue was distressed, he had already understood that the opponent's powerful shield-wielding guard had shrunk directly behind the large shield. He used the steel layer on the shield to directly bear the opponent's attack, and he held the handle with both hands and lunged with his front legs. He pressed his hind legs down and made a parrying movement while shouting in his mouth.

"Here I am! Here I am! Enemy general found"

As good veterans who have experienced more than a dozen wars and are still alive, their combat experience is actually very rich. Maybe they are not too good at close combat, but they are good at defense, parrying, and capturing fighters. The excellence of these soldiers is impressive.

Facing the internal energy that was suppressed by the cloud energy, the veteran knew that he was unable to defeat him in the first fight, so he decisively used a large shield to withstand the opponent's attack and called for support.

This was also something Yu Jin had told them from the beginning.

The easiest way to defeat the Imperial Guards and Shield-wielding Imperial Guards of the Northern Song Dynasty is to use powerful individuals to break through, or to use heavy weapons to attack and directly attack the interior of the Imperial Guards through defense.

For both of these methods, Yu Jin has prepared corresponding countermeasures.

"Throw a spear!"
