Water Margin: The opening scene involves assassinating Emperor Huizong of Song and forcibly taking L

The Jin soldiers began to sound their horns.

The command flag was waved wildly.

The Jin general's name was Wohu.

He shares the same name but different surname as Wanyan Wohu, the son of Aguda.

These Jin cavalrymen before us,

Including the military commander, Wohu,

They all came from the Liao-origin Jurchen people.

Thirteen years ago, it was conquered by Wanyan Wulugu's army.

Oghul divided his forces into four cavalry units.

Organize a counter-attack to cover the Jin soldiers who are about to be overtaken.

Based on his more than ten years of experience in cavalry combat,

These Han Chinese cavalrymen,

They will definitely be scared off by the counterattack.

They quickly created distance and mounted an archer.

However, the Ming cavalry charged straight at them!

Not only did the Ming cavalry charge head-on, but they also crashed into them.

Small Ming cavalry units on both sides

They also took the initiative to encircle and engage in close combat.

Four cavalry squadrons,

A total of two hundred Jin Dynasty cavalrymen.

They were all surrounded and killed by Ming cavalry from three sides.

The remaining Ming cavalry,

Adjust the charging position and distance.

They gradually moved closer together in small teams.

They continued their charge towards the remaining Jin cavalry.

The Ming Dynasty's elite cavalry, not the Liao cavalry.

Not Song cavalry,

It wasn't a summer cavalry unit either.

The Jin cavalry's tactic of luring the enemy failed.

Not only did Oghuz Turks have few soldiers,

The warhorse was also severely exhausted.

Terrified, they abandoned the two hundred cavalrymen.

He led the other cavalry in a full-speed retreat.

Yang Yun divided his forces to annihilate the two hundred golden cavalry.

He personally led the army to continue the pursuit.

They chased each other for about two miles.

They could see Wanyan Loushi's main force approaching from afar.

"withdraw!"

"Woooooooo~~~~"

The Ming cavalry showed no interest in fighting.

It turned around and ran away.

The battle just now,

They annihilated more than 180 Jin cavalrymen.

They shot and wounded many more during the pursuit.

Wohu led his defeated troops back and said to Wanyan Loushi:

“These Ming cavalrymen are different,”

"When our troops provided cover for the counter-offensive,"

"They didn't even retreat!"

That's fucking outrageous.

The Ming army's reaction was normal.

But in Wohu's view,

However, this is extremely abnormal.

Because the Liao, Song, and Western Xia armies would instinctively keep their distance.

There are very few times when you charge headlong into close combat—unless you already have an overwhelming advantage.

Wanyan Loushi said, "The Ming cavalry have charged out."

"They retreated upon seeing our main force."

"It seems that our camp has not yet fallen."

"Otherwise they would occupy the camp and defend it."

"The entire army must accelerate its advance!"

"Join forces in the camp to attack the enemy from both sides!"

.....

Jin army camp.

The defending general, Sa Ba, saw Wang De occupy the high ground.

Immediately dispatch eighty elite Jurchen troops to reinforce the defense.

He then casually beheaded the soldiers who had been frightened away and displayed their heads to the public.

More and more brave soldiers of the vanguard reached the high ground.

Wang De began to lead his troops in a fierce downward charge.

The battle lasted only six or seven minutes.

The Jin Han army there had already collapsed.

Of the eighty elite Jurchen troops, more than twenty were killed or wounded.

More advance troops descended from the high ground.

It rushed towards the top of the nearby stockade wall.

They ambushed and killed the Jin Dynasty Han soldiers and laborers from Meng County who were defending the stockade.

Chapter 232 Allied Forces Have Arrived!

The laborers fled in terror.

The Jurchen supervisory team couldn't stop them at all.

Seeing that the Jin Han army was on the verge of collapse,

Saba had no choice but to commit the remaining Jurchen elite troops.

He even rushed up himself.

A messenger rode up on horseback and whispered to Chen Ziyi:

"General, the main force of the Jin army will be here soon."

General Yang asked whether he should lead his troops in a bloody battle to buy time.

Chen Ziyi said, "No need, let him temporarily withdraw from the battlefield to the southeast."

"Obtain intelligence on the enemy's situation before launching a counterattack."

"The valley here is too narrow,"

"It can't accommodate too many cavalrymen,"

Even if we capture the enemy camp,

"Several thousand warhorses blocked the entrance to the valley,"

"It would also be difficult to quickly retreat into the camp."

In Zhang Guangdao's plan,

I never intended to quickly capture the enemy camp.

Then he ordered Chen Ziyi's troops to withdraw and defend.

If that's the case,

Wanyan Loushi definitely had no desire to fight.

He probably led the entire army to the northwest to escape over mountains and valleys.

This situation can also leave behind many enemies.

Moreover, it forced the enemy to abandon some of their armor and warhorses.

But it is highly likely that more than half of them will escape.

"The elite cavalry will cover the heavy cavalry's retreat!"

Heavy cavalry temporarily converted into heavy infantry

Except for a few people who stepped on barbed wire,

There were almost no casualties.

They didn't even really engage in combat.

They spent most of their time ramming against the stockade walls.

The arrows and spears of the Jin soldiers,

It was impossible to break through the heavy armor defenses.

They simply threw in some clods of yellow earth.

A small number of heavy cavalrymen were injured.

These clods of loess are very light.

Moreover, the landing point is not high.

Even heavy cavalrymen who suffered broken bones were few and far between.

(The Jin soldiers used most of the loess clods they collected from the valley to fill the stockade walls and block the gates; very little was used as rolling stones.)

The elite cavalry, wielding long spears, took over from the heavy cavalry.

The heavy cavalry slowly retreated from outside the stockade walls.

Head to the valley entrance to retrieve your warhorse.

The real breakthrough point

On both hillsides,

There wasn't much fighting to be done at the bottom of the valley.

More than twenty elite cavalrymen
