Chapter 170: Restless

The battle broke out extremely suddenly, and the two groups of Song troops that were instantly killed from the east and west sides really startled the Jurchens. But fortunately, these people are the elite of the Jurchens, and after a short period of stunned, they are once again full of high-spirited fighting spirit.

I was worried about how to clean you up, so you sent it to the door yourself, since you killed yourself, then don't blame us for being polite.

With such an idea, at the first time of receiving the enemy, it was the Jin army that was raided that took the advantage.

A steady stream of Song troops poured out from the east and west sides, and the gate of Danzhou City suddenly opened, and the tide-like Song army shouted and killed from the city gate.

On the city wall, the crossbowmen of the Song army were still shooting at the Jin army's main formation. They don't have a lot of arrows, and when they finish shooting their arrows, they're going to go down and fight the golden soldiers.

After four battles in three days, the Song army really had no chance to clean up the battlefield.

The gunpowder had almost been consumed, and there were only four or five shells left in the general's cannon. If it weren't for the embarrassing situation of relying on hand-to-hand combat, Tang Ning would not have used such an inefficient way of killing.

In a trance, Tang Ning seemed to feel that he had returned to Xiaoguan, and at that time, he led the Zhenjiang army to the point of running out of ammunition and food, and could only fight with the Xixia people with bayonets.

Although the situation was different this time, it was finally time to fight the bayonet. Tang Ning only hoped that this time would not be as tragic as the Battle of Xiaoguan, 60,000 people fought to the end and only 3,000 remained, although Tang Ning never mentioned this matter, but this will always be a scar in his heart.

At the beginning of the battle, in the face of the fierce offensive of the Song army, the Jin army was not only not afraid, but more heroic. The Song army failed to parry it at the first time, but was beaten back again and again by the Jin army.

It wasn't until the Song army in the city came out and fought with the Jin army that there was a turnaround.

Many of the Song troops killed in the city were veterans of the Zhenguo Army, and they cooperated with each other very tacitly, and Jin Guomeng, who had just killed people like chopping melons and vegetables, would be toyed with by them, and then he lost his head, and the offensive of the Jin army's counterattack began to be blocked.

At the same time, Wang Sunsin also rushed to the nearby high slope and began to look for the officers in the Jin army and snipe them one by one.

The chain of command is broken, and even if the soldiers of the Jin Army are heroic, they do not know what to do after killing someone.

Whether to continue to advance or stick to the spot, no one gave orders, and they could only fight with the Song army in confusion in the same place.

But this is only a small part, after all, many generals in the Jin army like to dress up as small soldiers to prevent themselves from being too conspicuous and being targeted.

If Xiao Shi hadn't been working under Tang Ning all the time, causing many people who were not used to Tang Ning to hate Wu and Wu, and had a great opinion of him, he would have been touted as the number one general of the Great Song Dynasty.

Wielding a halberd, he seemed to be a killing god, and the eighty-pound halberd danced in his hand just like Pei Xiantong dancing with a sword

It looks very lightweight.

This even gave Tang Ning the illusion that the halberd must be hollow.

But he had personally carried a halberd with a small stone, and knew that this thing was a real eighty pounds.

Eighty pounds of long-term smashing on a person is basically an end of vomiting blood and breaking bones. After Jin Jun found the brave little stone, he began to act against him, intentionally or unintentionally.

Martial arts masters may be invincible in the world on the rivers and lakes, but in the army, with their style of fighting alone, I am afraid that they really can't live for a stick of incense.

There is a saying that two fists are hard to beat four hands, and a good tiger can't stand up to a wolf. No matter how high the craftsmanship is, more than a dozen people will be cut down at the same time, not to mention whether they will be hacked to death, one or two wounds will always be left.

Even if these ten people are killed by him, what about another ten?

The army is like this, if you are capable, we will play wheel warfare with you. And even if we are in wheel warfare, we are not on one by one, we are ten or ten, and we will use people to pile you to death.

In the era when the Zhenguo Army was extremely prosperous, there were many patriots who devoted themselves to the Zhenguo Army, and many of them were vigorous and felt that it was not a problem for them to be ten by one.

These men will basically be killed in the next battle, and those who are good in their own right, and who practice diligently to cooperate with other soldiers, will always survive.

Jin Jun may think that Xiaoshi is the former, but Xiaoshi has gone from the Zhenjiang Army to the Zhenguo Army for so many years, and he still understands this most basic truth.

On the battlefield, fighting alone is only a dead end.

Just as the Jin soldiers began to slowly approach Xiao Shi, Xiao Shi's own soldiers also came out from the side.

They covered the small stones and prevented them from being surrounded by golden soldiers. As soon as a group of people rushed towards the small stone, they clung to the small stone, protecting his sides and his back from enemies from other directions except those in front of him.

Xiao Shi believed in his brothers, and he waved his halberd at the golden soldier in front of him without distraction, without even looking at his side.

He had given his back to his trusted brother.

Yang Yingzheng's leg was shot by a stray arrow during the previous attack on Danzhou City, and he was unable to move. But his horsemanship was good, so Tang Ning sent him and Liu Qi to lead 6,000 cavalry to the flank to harass the Jin army.

It's a bit shabby to say, the 200,000 army is only worth 8,000 cavalry, including scouts, and it's a joke to take out such a configuration, but there is actually a reason for this.

If Tang Ning was more ambitious, after recovering the sixteen states of Yanyun, he was still ready to continue to march into the territory of the Jin State, and it was understandable that he would bring 350,000 cavalry.

But there is the Great Wall in the sixteen states of Yanyun, and the overall terrain is not very suitable for cavalry to play, if you bring a large number of cavalry over, wouldn't it be like chicken ribs?

Is it a pity to discard the tasteless food?

In addition, the Ninth Route Army itself is a forbidden army in the surrounding areas of Kaifeng Mansion, and they usually don't even bother to do training, how can the excellent war horses produced in Qingtang be given to them?

At the beginning, Zhao Xu himself received 500 good horses from the hands of the Xixia people, and they were all sent to the Western Army, and none of them were left.

However, now it seems that it was really not a good choice to have less cavalry at the beginning. At least Yang Yingzheng, who was originally going to attack and harass the enemy's flank, is now being chased by the Jurchen cavalry.

In fact, these Jurchen cavalry were also quite depressed, because they had nothing to do.

In order to prevent the cavalry from attacking the flanks, the Song people specially sent a special infantry regiment to set up a horse rejection on the way for the cavalry to attack the flank, and intercept them.

The Jurchen cavalry, who had received an order to attack the flank of the Song army, saw this posture and their heads widened, and after thinking about it, there was nothing they could do, and when they turned their heads, they saw the sneaky Yang Yingzheng and his party.

This will make them very happy, and since I can't disturb the flanks, and I can't paddle, I'll run after your cavalry.

So the cavalry on both sides chased after me in the sound of scolding, running round and round around a nearby mountain......

After three hours of fighting, there was finally a breakthrough. Because the three senior generals of the Jin army who commanded on the spot accidentally hung up, the Jin army had to retreat while resisting the offensive of the Song army.

If you can overlook the battle situation from a high altitude, the entire battlefield of the current melee between the Song and Jin armies is like a trident.

The battlefield was divided into three pieces by two hills, and the Jin army retreated into the valley, holding on to the three passages into the valley.

In order to defeat the Jin army, the Song army had to keep attacking the Jin army in this valley.

From outside the city of Danzhou to this valley, there are corpses everywhere.

The snowflakes falling from the sky fell on a puddle of blood on the ground, and then became a part of the puddle of blood. The shouts of killing can be heard clearly in Danzhou City.

Tang Ning's brows jumped suddenly, and he always felt a little uneasy.

Pei Xiantong saw that his face was sinking like water, so he asked softly: "Dog officer, what's wrong, are you uncomfortable?" ”

Tang Ning held the city wall with one hand, rubbed his forehead with the other hand and said, "It's nothing, my head hurts a little, it may be cold, it's okay, you don't have to worry." ”

"Don't you see them, are you worried?" Pei Xiantong said: "If that's the case, I'll accompany you to the front." With me here, we can run away even if we can't beat it. ”

Tang Ning thought for a moment, nodded and said, "Okay! Then let's go ahead and take a look, I do want to know how the battle is going now......"
