This fireworks display is very grand.
Summer is already hot, and after a burst of heavy rainfall, it has been sunny for two consecutive days. The sun is very scorching, so the wooden camp of the Jin Army is actually quite easy to ignite.
As a result, the powerful eruption of flames can quickly ignite military tents and dry wood.
More than two thousand flying fire guns were ignited one after another, and the large or small flames erupted instantly turned the Jin soldiers' camp into a sea of flames.
The golden soldiers who had just woken up or were awakened by the shouts of their companions had no time to react.
Not to mention armor and weapons, he didn't even have time to put on his coat. As soon as he opened his eyes and saw the light of the fire and smelled the smell of being burned by the flames, he ran out as if conditioned to escape.
After leaving the military tent, waiting for them were the soldiers of the Victory Army who were holding a "fireworks display".
But the soldiers of the Shengjie Army were very unfriendly. When they saw these golden soldiers, they immediately aimed the "fireworks" at them.
Even if the high-temperature flames and strong pungent breath did not burn them, they were still choked. One or two immediately fell to the ground, rolling and twisting, losing their combat effectiveness in an instant, and then they were slashed by the soldiers of the Shengjie Army with their swords. Die, or be stabbed to death.
The soldiers of the Shengjie Army moved swiftly and neatly, without any sloppiness. They paid attention to efficient killing and no unnecessary tricks. In a short time, they killed the golden soldiers with corpses all over the field.
The fire gradually spread with the gusts of morning wind, one camp after another, one military tent after another, and it looked like a whole company was set on fire.
The soldiers of the Shengjie Army who had been prepared for a long time were as if they were in an uninhabited land, and they beat the Jin soldiers to the ground like a broken bamboo.
In the flames, the Jin soldiers lost their command and organization, and were unable to resist effectively. They could only run around like headless flies, or carry out partial resistance under the leadership of a few officers with relatively good military qualities.
But the intensity of this resistance is very small and not enough to change the current situation.
Mu Huoli, a close confidant of Jiagu Asu, got up earlier, so he was able to lead his own soldiers to react quickly and gather a small number of troops to try to resist.
His resistance was quite fierce, but he forgot to wear a helmet while he was busy. He was shot through the neck by a cold arrow flying from nowhere, and died on the spot.
When the general dies, his subordinates will naturally disperse.
Amutu, the deputy general of Jiagu Asu, also tried to organize his troops and launch a counterattack. As a result, he was besieged and a burst of flames burned them to death.
After his subordinates were burned to pieces, three flying muskets sprayed fire at him, burning his whole body to black, severely burning him, and making him scream in agony.
Of course, the soldiers of the Shengjie Army were very merciful and quickly stabbed him without causing him any greater pain.
Some important officers of the Jin Army suffered heavy losses due to various reasons in this wave of raids, and a large number of them were killed in battle. As a result, the Jin Army's command system suffered a devastating blow.
Su Yonglin had heard that some generals who were very demanding and good at leading troops would not allow their elite soldiers to take off their armor before the battle, and asked them to wear their armor and sleep holding their weapons.
They would even maliciously beat gongs and drums in the middle of the night to wake them up to shout about enemy attacks, or try to steal their weapons, in order to practice their ability to respond to emergencies.
Such a general is of course as terrifying and hateful to the soldiers as a ghost.
But to the enemy, such a general is even more hateful and must be eliminated quickly.
And the current coach of this Jinbing team is not hateful to Su Yonglin at all.
Su Yonglin even wanted to catch him and give him a big hug, thanking him for bringing out such an army that had no ability to resist sudden crises, so that he could successfully succeed in the sneak attack.
The Jin soldiers did not organize a decent resistance.
Facing the rapid assault and destruction carried out by the Shengjie Army's combat team as a squad, they were scurrying around like headless flies. They did not try to resist in groups, nor did they take advantage of the obstacles in the military camp. Perform tactical blocking.
The so-called resistance and counterattack are one or two people wielding knives and spears to protect themselves, while more people just run away.
And blindly escaping can't change anything, it can only further promote the progress of the Shengjie Army's advance and speed up the fall of the Jin Army's camp.
When he collapsed and didn't dare to run anymore, he just lay down on the ground and held his head in his hands to express surrender, neither running nor fighting.
Many Jin soldiers chose to rush directly into Wenshui River, trying to escape by swimming, hoping to board a small boat and quickly escape from the battlefield.
But before they could swim and board the ship, the ship had already begun to move.
A large number of civilians on the ship and a small number of soldiers guarding the ship saw the fire burning in the camp on the shore. A large number of golden soldiers shouted to them for help on the shore. More people swam over and tried to board the ship. They were so frightened that their faces turned pale.
At this critical moment, of course, your own life is important, and even the common people know this.
So regardless of whether there were Jin soldiers on the ship or not, even if there were only civilians on the ship, some ships started to take action. They turned their bows one after another and tried to leave the battlefield along the channel they came from.
At this point, who would care about the lives of those "comrades" on the shore?
Wait, are they "comrades"?
Obviously not.
More and more ships, large and small, began to sail westward, trying to escape from the battlefield. The fastest ships rushed to the front. The civilians in the cabins shouted slogans and shook their oars, desperate to escape.
In fact, during this process, some small boats were hit by larger ships, capsized, or shattered due to the disorderly scramble for waterways.
If you are lucky, you can escape by holding a piece of wood, but if you are unlucky, you can sink directly to the bottom of the river and die.
But that was not the end. When the fastest ships were sailing quickly, one after another equally large ships suddenly hit them from the opposite side.
It didn't feel like there was a navigation problem at all, but that it was about to collide.
"ah!!"
Screams came one after another, and eight large and small ships collided into a ball on the channel, blocking the entire channel.
The boat behind had no time to stop, and the people on the boat screamed as their boat hit it. After a violent shaking, the people on the boat fell into a mess on the deck.
This wasn't the beginning yet. More ships hit from two directions, but some seemed to hit them deliberately, while others simply couldn't stop.
The river was blocked in such a collision. More than thirty large and small ships collided into a ball, blocking the channel tightly.
In this case, not to mention big ships, not even small boats can pass.
The angry people were yelling at each other passionately on the boat, and the curses were so intense that the whole world was shattered.
But no matter how much he insults the other person, what can he do if he is a straight woman?
Some ships were lucky and did not crack under the impact.
Some boats were unlucky and were directly hit and cracked, began to leak, and gradually sank. People on the boat screamed and jumped into the water to swim to escape.
The channel is blocked, and more and more ships behind are trying to move.
The people behind were confused about the situation in front and kept pushing forward. As a result, they couldn't even turn around. In the end, the entire channel became more and more blocked. Most of the ships were trapped in the water and could not move. The people on the ship had no choice but to abandon the ship and jump into the water. Swim to escape.
For a time, the entire river was filled with people swimming ashore.
Of course, they did not run to the south bank where the fire was raging, but swam directly to the north bank, trying to escape to the north bank where there was no fighting.
Some people made it ashore.
Some people sank to the bottom for various reasons and drowned while swimming, and did not make it to the shore alive.
Although Wenshui is not a big river, it does have a certain depth and width. If you are not strong enough, or your body cramps due to stress, and you don't have any life-saving boards or the like, you will really have to face sinking to the bottom. Tragic ending.
The Jurchen soldiers, Han soldiers and civilians who landed ashore were beating their chests and breathing heavily. They looked at the burning camp on the south bank and listened to the faint screams, and they were secretly glad in their hearts.
But before they could be happy for long, there was a slight vibration on the ground.
The few female real soldiers who were familiar with horses suddenly showed horrified expressions. They looked to the east and saw a dark mass of cavalry charging towards them.
"ah!!!!!"
They were terrified.
