[Southern Song Dynasty] Splendid mountains and rivers

Since that night, Zhong Yi's depression has dissipated a lot.The veterans around him testified that General Zhong was no longer the same as before, frowning from time to time, holding his long sword and silent under the moon.Zhao Yuan himself also testified that compared to his old frowning appearance, his current appearance seemed more reassuring.

In the vast Gobi desert in the northwest, the wind and sand are fierce, and the barnyard grass is broken.

He finally made up his mind to make a move.

The iron cavalry of the Western Army, which had been kept in Shuozhou for three years, was equipped with the most sophisticated bows and knives, the most powerful horses, and the two most wonderful weapons.

Two small pieces of colored glaze are enough to see the withered vegetation ten miles away.

A pinch of thick black powder is enough to detonate a world-shattering catastrophe.

Song Jun had never been so elated as today, beating the Xixia people until they screamed and knelt down begging for mercy.Hundreds of years of fierce battles are still vivid, and the loess land is soaked with the blood of ancestors.But on this day, when the grass grows in March and the warbler flies, the king's banner is hunting on the vast loess, and the blood-colored horses and brave warriors plunge into the land of Xixia like sharp knives.

At the end of the spring of that year, the defense line of the Eastern County of Xixia was broken, and the border was in a hurry.

The King of Xixia finally felt panic, and habitually wanted to find a strong support to rely on.When he returned to the palace, only the spirit cards of Empress Cheng'an and Prince Ren'ai remained in the empty palace.His concubines and princes wept together, dragging the hem of his clothes, begging him to borrow troops from Emperor Liao.

But the king of Xixia is not stupid to the extreme.The queen and prince of Liao blood died one after another, and Xiliao himself was in chaos.Going to Xiliao to borrow troops now is tantamount to asking for a dead end.

However, there is no unparalleled road, and the Liao Kingdom sent someone to deliver it to the door.

The noble envoy of Xiliao was a general named Xiao Orila. He had a black mole on his chin and three hairs on it, which was easy to recognize.

Xiao Wuli squinted his eyes, and took a picture of a document on the case table of the King of Xixia. There were 28 agreements on the loss of power and humiliation of the country.Love to sign, but not to sign.The King of Xixia cried in the palace all night holding the agreement, and finally decided: not to sign.

The next day, Xiao Wuli returned west in anger.

On the tenth day, 30 fine riders from Xiliao tore down the defense line of Xixia County.

The Xixia Kingdom is fighting on two fronts, and the two fronts are in a hurry.

The king of Xixia was full of worry and indignation, and finally swallowed the bitter wine brewed by himself in the past.The general who fought against the Song Army three years ago volunteered to lead the remaining 50 elite soldiers of the Xixia Kingdom to the Hetao Plain.

But unfortunately, Song Jun was one step ahead of him.

The youngest and most vigorous general of the Song Dynasty, the only single seedling left in the previous years, led the most elite three thousand cavalry of the Song Dynasty, crossed the Hetao Plain, and blocked the Xixia Army on the Wanli Gobi Desert.Three thousand cavalry lined up, all of them were tall, long-legged, nimble and nimble Guanshan warriors, all in black clothes and black armor, with snow-white tassels tied on felt hats, and even the tassels of their spears were all snow-white.The most frightening thing is that their crotches are all first-class horses, their manes are like clouds, their sweat is like blood, snorting neatly, full of unruly vigor.

Crossbows, spears, sharp swords, broadswords, bloody horses.

The young general had a stern face, and his eyes were as deep as ink, revealing a bloodthirsty coldness.

The Zhong clan guarded the border for five generations, blood staining the mountains and rivers.

After the death of the Five Dynasties, Zhongyi remained alone.

Fight to the death, without him.

That battle was earth-shattering, and every storyteller commented that using 50 cavalry against [-] horses was undoubtedly seeking death.But every storyteller will say in the end that General Zhong actually won, and he won quite beautifully.

It is said that the answer is only eight words: vast Gobi, barren thousands of miles.

There is nothing on the Gobi Desert except Populus euphratica forest, and the vision is quite wide; and similarly, there is nothing on the Gobi Desert except Populus euphratica forest. Three thousand cavalry can bring their own rations, so what can a 50 army take to camp?

Song Jun: Look!There is a cavalry from Xixia ten miles away!

Xixia Army: I can't see the Song Army...

Song Jun: Boom!Killing one counts as one!

Xixia Army: It seems that I heard thunder on the ground just now...

Every Xixia person who experienced that war felt that it was too cruel.

The speed of this Song army is too fast.With the addition of blood-sweat horses, they seemed to have a pair of wings on the Gobi Desert in the northwest.

This Song army is too versatile.I don't know what kind of cruelty their general put into training. Mounted horses are cavalry, dismounted are infantry, and lifting stones can be used as shields. No matter whether it is a longbow or a crossbow, they are all proficient.

The most frightening thing is that each of them is equipped with Song's most powerful magic weapons, ancient telescopes and improved gunpowder.

Moreover, they are actually the cavalry of Song State!cavalry! ! !

The Xixia people felt an indescribable pain.

It is said that the cavalry came and went like the wind, and their tassels were like clouds, and they even gave themselves a vivid name, Feiyunqi.

It is said that at the end of the battle, their snow-white tassels were stained with blood, they all dismounted, lined up, kowtowed in the direction of the Song Dynasty, and wailed in mournful songs, which was very moving.

It is said that the Feiyun Rider became a lingering nightmare for the Xixia people at night, and the youngest son of the Zhong family who created this cavalry was regarded by the Xixia people as a good medicine to stop children from crying at night. "Sweat and blood horses, drink the long river; fly clouds, stop singing at night; Guanshan snow, Populus euphratica fall, can't resist the spears and leaping horses, the walls are crumbling around the green radish." It is said that the "long spears and leaping horses" here refers to Kind of Yi kind of general.

It is said that...

There are too many "said".

These legends are true or false, and most of them have become the talk of storytellers after dinner.But that victory was real.Song State's three thousand flying cloud cavalry overwhelmed Xixia State's 50 elite soldiers.Even if there is water in the 50 yuan, even if Feiyunqi takes advantage of the right time, place and people and brings new weapons... it is enough to become a shocking war.

And the most dazzling general in this war quickly entered the sights of the leaders of all parties.

The will of praise flew like snowflakes, and Zhong Yi was promoted to the second rank for the first time. This is the youngest high-ranking military officer since the founding of the Song Dynasty.Everyone is discussing whether he will follow Di Qing's old path, become the deputy envoy of the Privy Council, and then survive in the cracks of a group of civil servants until he grows old.

It is said that Bianliang has exploded.It is said that the officials are so upset that they want to move the capital to Yanjing.

On the vast Gobi desert in the northwest, General Zhong who had just been promoted burned down the Populus euphratica forest, and said nine words coldly: "Cut off all their escape routes."

There is no kindness, no softness, only the boundless national hatred and family feud, showing a deep blood.

Empress Roufu, who was traveling west with the army, frowned, and said, "We don't have much left, we can barely last ten days." The food, grass and weapons of the three thousand cavalry were basically piled up in her portable space.The space capacity is limited, and it can last half a month, which is already the limit.

General Zhong frowned deeply, pursed his thin lips and remained silent.

The speed of soldiers is the most important, but the power is as powerful as a broken bamboo.If you miss this wonderful opportunity with the right time, place and people, and take advantage of public opinion, the next time, it will not be so cheap.

Di Ji turned her head to think for a while, and suggested, "Why don't we take a few steps back, so that the Western Army who will come back to help come up?"

When dispatching troops, Zhong Yi not only brought 30 Feiyun cavalry, but also [-] Western troops waiting behind.This cavalry is the trump card of the trump card. If it is hungry or tired, it will not be worth the loss.

Zhong Yi fell into deep thought.
