The horn sounded for a full-scale counterattack, and Su Jue and Su Haisheng each directed the military formation to move forward.
The large shields advanced step by step, and the spears also advanced accordingly. The golden soldiers blocking the front of the military formation had only one end, and that was to be pierced into pieces by the spears.
This burst of flames could not burn anyone to death. Its greatest effect was to burn and scare the horses.
Jin Jun was wearing armor. As long as he was not unlucky enough to be directly hit by flames in the face, his life was generally unlikely to be in danger.
But it was different for the unarmored war horses. The high-temperature flames directly burned the horse's body, and there was a horse meat barbecue in front of the battle.
The horses were in pain and went crazy with fright. They jumped and threw the cavalry off their horses, or they fell to the ground with both men and horses. They were unable to get up. They wailed on the ground and lost their combat effectiveness.
What awaited them was the ruthless thrust of the spear.
The soldiers of the Victory Army stabbed them hard with their spears, causing blood to fly and flow like a fountain.
The solid shield pushed away their corpses, and the entire military formation continued to move forward. With every step forward, a golden soldier would die.
A few lucky golden soldiers and horses were not burned by the flames, but facing the advancing military formations on both sides, they completely lost their threat. All that was left was to fight to the death out of desperation, or to surrender on the spot.
Some people chose to fight to the death, screamed in despair, and launched a final charge in despair, trying to do something, and then they were stabbed into skewers by the Shengjie army who had an absolute numerical advantage.
Now it is no longer defense, but an offensive moment for the Shengjie Army.
More people realized this and collapsed mentally in despair. They climbed off their horses and knelt on the ground, loudly begging for surrender, begging the victorious army not to kill them. They were willing to lower their noble heads and surrender to the "rebels".
The battle ended after the last golden soldier who charged desperately was cut into pieces by more than a dozen spears.
Won.
Su Yonglin witnessed the end of this Jin Army cavalry on the highest mountain, witnessed the final outcome of their entire army being annihilated, and the scene where the soldiers of the Victory Army rejoiced and celebrated their victory.
He took a deep breath, exhaled it for a long time, and then prepared to walk down to celebrate with the soldiers. As a result, he staggered as soon as he took a step. Fortunately, the soldiers around him stepped forward decisively to help him, and he was not there. Falling down in front of everyone.
Perhaps I was too nervous and uneasy just now, my mind was highly concentrated and my body was tense. Now that I was sure of victory, I suddenly relaxed and my whole body became limp and weak.
"Alang, are you okay?"
The soldier looked at Su Yonglin worriedly.
Su Yonglin slowly shook his head.
"Hold me, it'll be fine in a while."
"Here."
Two soldiers supported Su Yonglin, one on the left and the other on the right, and helped him slowly walk down the mountain. When he was almost at the foot of the mountain, he could finally walk freely.
The battle was won, and the soldiers of the victorious army were waving their weapons and celebrating their victory. Then Su Yonglin appeared on horseback, greeted the soldiers, and received even more enthusiastic cheers from the soldiers.
A victory cheer for their manager.
There is no doubt that the first credit for this war belongs to the coach. Although he did not fight personally, his mission was not to fight personally.
Many of his decisions laid the foundation for this victory, and no one in the army did not understand this.
Su Yonglin finished his greetings and came to Su Jue and Su Haisheng, casting encouraging and satisfied glances at them.
"here you go!"
Su Jue and Su Haisheng blushed, unable to suppress the smiles and excitement on their faces. Like a volcano that continued to erupt, they laughed loudly and poured out their accumulated emotions.
In a real sense, the Shengjie Army won its first battle with the Jin Kingdom's regular army.
This battle lasted intermittently for about an hour.
From the surprise attack to the defense to the final decisive battle, the Shengjie army killed a large number of golden soldiers.
After the war, the Shengjie Army quickly cleaned the battlefield, counted the number of people, and counted the casualties. Finally, it was determined that Su Yonglin used the superior terrain to annihilate the Jin Army cavalry, which numbered about 1,500 people.
More than 700 people of the Jin Army were killed in the battle, and the remaining 700 people were captured alive. The ratio of death to surrender was relatively even, which shows that the Jin Army fought bravely.
Su Yonglin believed that this was the reason why Shengjie Army was not famous, so Jin Army had the illusion of escaping.
If the victorious army had a good reputation, it is estimated that the Jin army would consider surrendering if two to three hundred people were killed.
It seems that we will have to kill the golden soldiers more ferociously in the future.
In addition, the Victory Army seized a total of more than 1,000 pieces of various fighting weapons such as lances and machetes, more than 300 cavalry crossbows, more than 500 cavalry bucklers, and more than 500 intact armors. Some were damaged but repaired. There are more than 600 pieces of armor that can continue to be used.
There are 436 horses that can still be ridden, and more than 300 horses that are injured but can be cured.
The rest were all dead, seriously injured and on the verge of death, or had their legs broken, which was a pity.
It would be great if these guys surrendered honestly!
The victorious army's horse reserves can be doubled immediately, and more cavalry can be trained.
So Su Yonglin sighed and ordered that these dead and injured horses be processed together. The Huotou camp made these horses into a horse meat feast for the soldiers to eat, so that the soldiers could quickly replenish their physical strength and increase nutrition.
He happily accepted the living horses, which could increase the horse reserves of the victorious army and continue to expand the number of cavalry.
If the fighting continues like this, thousands or even tens of thousands of cavalry will be fought out.
Of course, this idea is ideal.
Because the training of cavalry does take time, even with the assistance of high bridge saddles and double stirrups, the training of elite cavalry is still based on years.
He did not allow the cavalry to be dispatched in this battle, mainly because he was reluctant to part with the cavalry team of the Victory Army in its initial stage, which suffered heavy losses as soon as it was born.
Although Su Yong looked at him with a slumped face and a look of despair, he still did not allow the cavalry to dispatch.
"Don't even think about it, just stay in the reserve team."
He warned Su Yong like this.
So Su Yong drooped his head, like a monkey that had failed to mate.
This kind of cavalry with little combat experience can only be abused at first to accumulate some experience in riding combat. It is the best choice to deal with the defeated Jin Army infantry instead of going head-to-head with other skilled cavalry.
That's just lighting a lantern in the toilet.
Fortunately, Shengjiejun still won.
They won the first battle and annihilated 1,500 Jin Army cavalry, achieving a great victory.
After the battle, Su Yonglin could clearly feel that the spirit of the entire army was different.
The more than six hundred Golden Soldier prisoners who were as depressed as frightened birds were stripped of their armor and guarded. The soldiers of the Victory Army looked at them with arrogance and condescension, full of pride in their hearts.
They should be proud, they have the right to be proud, they can be proud.
Because they achieved a gratifying victory in their first regular war and annihilated an established cavalry force.
Tian Guizi asked Su Yonglin for instructions on how to deal with these Jinbing prisoners. Su Yonglin thought about it carefully and came up with an idea.
“Sending them back together with the wounded, parading them in various villages, and then selecting about a hundred people to be tried and executed in public, in order to publicize the bravery of the victorious army, reduce the fear of the Jin people in the hearts of the people, and inspire their courage.
Don't kill the remaining ones, put them in shackles and send them to the mines. The most dangerous ones are places where our miners don't dare to go. Let them go, alive or dead. This is what these gold miners are doing. The greatest use of people. "
Tian Guizi thought about it and felt that this method was good and practical, so he agreed and arranged for someone to handle it.
