"Chariots forward!" Zongze slowly drew out the long sword from his waist. Under his command, the army moved slowly. All the chariots slowly walked out of the army and came to the front of the team. The front.
Zongze couldn't help but chuckle when he looked at these antiques that Wang Shan had gotten out of nowhere.
After experiencing the cavalry shooting of King Zhao Wuling in Hufu, the cavalry officially entered the stage of the Central Plains people, and then experienced four hundred years of Han Dynasty and more than a hundred years of melee.
Finally, the appearance of double stirrups during the Northern and Southern Dynasties allowed the internal and external cavalry to officially begin horseback combat.
Until now, this cavalry has completely become the king of this land, while the chariot has disappeared forever in the long river of history.
But this guy Wang Shan actually got tens of thousands of chariots from nowhere. If it weren't for the fact that these things were quite new and interesting, Zongze would have doubted whether this guy was secretly stealing the belongings of some princes and kings. The grave was dug.
But since he has this kind of thing in his hand, he must make good use of it. If it is not used well, it will be a joke, but if it is used well, it is an essential opportunity to kill the enemy and win.
A chariot generally requires four horses; to pull it, there are people who drive it, and there are also crossbowmen and spearmen in front.
After all, Wang Shan didn't possess any of these things, so it would be a joke if he had this thing in his hands. But Zongze was different. Since he didn't have a war horse or a driver, he didn't have a long swordsman, and he didn't have enough crossbows.
Then use it in a different way. If you can't use it as the sharpest spear, then use it as the strongest shield.
All the chariots were turned around, pulled by horses and pushed by men. After that, high baffles were added to the back and sides, leaving enough holes for spears to pass through.
Afterwards, in the eyes of everyone, a huge formation of chariots was just like this.
There were several spearmen standing on each chariot. The spears in their hands stretched out from the holes, seeming to turn into sharp thorns on the hedgehog.
After that, the army pushed a circular formation of 10,000 chariots and moved towards Cizhou City from a distance step by step.
Soon they were discovered by Youqi and informed to the Jin commander Wan Yanchang.
As the commander-in-chief of the army, Wan Yanchang immediately discovered something was wrong here, and immediately sent troops here to test the reality, but what they saw was this hedgehog-like guy.
"Raise the bow!" With a loud roar, all the Jin people took out their bows and crossbows, and when the next order came, they shot the arrows in their hands at the Song people.
But the solid baffles and reinforced chariots directly blocked all these arrows, which were of no use at all.
"Projection!"
As the saying goes, if one plan fails, then another will follow. When the Jin general Awanna saw that the arrow rain had no effect, he immediately asked his soldiers to start shooting.
But unfortunately, the chariot in front of them not only has front, rear, left and right baffles, but the sky above them will naturally not be pulled down. Even at the moment when the arrow rain arrives, all the Song troops are under the command of Zongze He hid under the chariot.
After the rain of arrows, the Song army, which had almost no losses, began to march slowly again. This time, even Awanna couldn't understand it.
"Charge!" Awanna made his last effort, trying to use the impact of the war horse to knock open the turtle shell of the chariot, but when the two collided, the chariot received a big bump. Not fake.
But the whining sound of the war horses told them that it was of no use.
What's even more disgusting is that the soldier behind the chariot's baffle seized the opportunity to directly turn his spear and pierce it, killing a golden man on the spot.
It was the first battle for Zongze's new army in Cizhou.
Blood sprayed on the baffle of the chariot, making the golden general Awanna at the rear blush even more, feeling as if he had been greatly insulted.
He personally drove the war horse and rushed directly in front of the chariot. He wanted to rely on his extraordinary bravery to overturn a chariot and open the damn gap.
But just when he was about to rush in front of the chariot, he was surprised to find that the chariot opened a gap on its own initiative. This move made him not understand what was going on.
From this gap, an old man with a horse in his hand had already rushed out. His hair was white and his beard was white, his waist was straight, and he was wearing strong armor. The Song Dynasty Cizhou Zhizhou and Hebei Military Marshal Zongze, who had sharp eyes, appeared again. In everyone's eyes.
The Pegasus rushed forward and arrived in front of Awanna in an instant. The horse in his hand quickly enlarged in Awanna's eyes.
As a brave general of the Jin Dynasty, Awanna was naturally no ordinary person. He did not dodge. Instead, he stood up to Zongze's Ma Shan and directly hit Zongze's waist with the big ax in his hand. This was to attack Zongze's waist. Just come to a fight to the death, one for one.
He wants to use Zongze's head to awaken the warriors of Dajin again, and he wants Zongze to destroy the morale of Cizhou.
The idea is good, but in reality it is far from it. At this time, the Jin people still don't know that because of this battle, the Song people's bravery has been completely awakened by them.
From this moment on, they will continue to see the appearance of the ten thousand enemies of the Song Dynasty one after another.
"Hey~" The sharp blade cut through the air and made a buzzing sound. Ma Shan directly stabbed Awanna's neck, giving him a heroic and noble death.
But Awanna's expression was very bad, because his big ax didn't work. Just three inches away from Zongze's waist, Zongze's big hand held the incoming big ax straight.
No matter how hard Awanna tried, he couldn't move. Even when the ax passed through his neck and the two horses passed by each other, the ax couldn't hurt Zongze at all.
Zongze's horse tore Awanna's head apart, then took it in his own hands and roared wantonly on the battlefield, telling these golden men that he, Zongze, was back!
At this moment, the golden man, who seemed to have never known fear, couldn't help but shrink a little when looking at the veteran who was yelling wantonly.
The Scout Rangers had already told their commander Wan Yanchang what was going on here and asked him to come and take charge of the overall situation again. However, when Wan Yanchang came in person with his people, Zongze had already brought this chariot with him. Zhen slowly left.
That's right, Zongze did not enter Cizhou City. He chose to show his strength in Cizhou City and the fact that he did not abandon them.
But his real goal is the land of Xiangzhou.
"On our way to Cizhou, there may not be much benefit if we enter the city. The chariots cannot be used in the city. If we use the force to control the situation, we will still have to face their harassment.
We don't have enough soldiers and armor, and we don't have enough food and fodder. If we rush into Cizhou at this time, we will lose more than we gain.
My intention is to show strength to Cizhou, so that it will be too worried to continue to attack Cizhou unscrupulously, and then immediately go around the city, not giving the Jin people a chance to raid Cizhou.
The person who acted on behalf of Xiangzhou was Dr. Liu Hao of Wuyi. This man was considered loyal and courageous. He recruited young and strong refugees to join the army in the land of Xiangzhou, and he always wanted to protect his homeland.
At the same time, he also prepared enough food, crops, baggage, bows, crossbows and arrows for me.
Our army's sergeants are strong and strong, and have the spirit of killing, but they lack excellent soldiers and armor, and this trip to Xiangzhou will make up for it.
And after what happened at Cizhou City, they would definitely think that this was nothing more than what happened when we came to Cizhou again, but they never dreamed that a trip to Xiangzhou would change our style of play again.
After preparing enough crossbow arrows, we can officially turn this chariot into an offensive and defensive weapon. Only then will we form a horned force with Cizhou. "
This was the plan Zongze made before he returned to Cizhou. He didn't know that Cizhou's offensive and defensive battle would be so fierce, but he believed that even if he left,
Those common people who have become soldiers will not be defeated so easily by the Jin again.
So he is extremely confident.
Now it seems that Zongze’s guess was not wrong.
Watching the chariot battle slowly leaving and gradually disappearing into the distance, Wan Yanchang looked extremely embarrassed, but he did not really go to surround them again.
Because facing such a hedgehog-like thing, he has no good solution now.
"The army is temporarily repaired and the war has stopped for a long time!" Zongze guessed correctly again. After experiencing Wan Yanchang like this, he really began to have some scruples about Cizhou, fearing that these guys would suddenly turn around and fight with him again.
Wan Yanchang was surprised by Zongze's return to the army, while Liu Hao from Xiangzhou fell into shock and could not recover for a long time.
He really couldn't imagine how Zongze, who had left Xiangzhou with thousands of people, was able to obtain such an army of tens of thousands in such a short period of time.
The most important thing is that these soldiers not only have the spirit of killing, but also are quite well-dressed.
Is it possible that this guy really has the skills to spread the beans and make an army?
No matter how shocked Liu Hao was, he could not change the fact that not only was the old general Zongze back, he also brought back tens of thousands of elite troops.
The most important thing is that he also became the Hebei Road Marshal of the Song Dynasty.
Liu Hao also got the right to temporarily act on behalf of Xiangzhou, but he also had to be restrained by Zongze. From this point of view, Liu Hao also knew how favored this official was in the heart of the official.
"Please also ask Dr. Liu to prepare the food and baggage, the bows and crossbows, arrows, bed crossbows and other items. I don't have much time. I am here today. I will leave here and return to Cizhou today."
This time, Zongze had a strong army and strong horses, and he was shouldering a heavy responsibility, and he had an important position. Although his words were still polite, this prestige told Liu Hao that it was better not to have any other thoughts.
And Liu Hao is not a fool. When he learned that Zongze became the Marshal of the Hebei Road Army, he had already prepared everything. When Zongze showed up today, he naturally delivered everything without hesitation.
Looking at the soldiers who had finished dressing up again, Zongze showed a kind smile.
"I'm going to give Wan Yanchang a big surprise this time."
