Seeing a large number of cavalry cavalry roaring towards them, screams of panic and collapse occurred one after another on the north bank.
Whether it was Jurchen soldiers, Han soldiers, or innocent civilians, they all stood up and ran away.
Are you kidding? How can they still sit still in the face of these cavalry roaring towards them?
Unable to sit still, their intense fear prompted them to run away immediately.
The Song soldiers without horses could not defeat the Jin army's cavalry, but could the Jin soldiers without horses defeat the same cavalry?
The answer is of course no.
The scattered crowds did not have any professional weapons, could not form military formations, had no long-range weapons such as bows and crossbows, and no unified command.
Such a group of people would face a life-or-death situation facing any cavalry.
Even if it is just a new cavalry that has just formed an army and is still immature, most of its members can only ride horses, and their horse fighting skills are quite weak.
But can two human legs outrun four strong horse legs?
The answer is also no.
Under the leadership of Su Yong, the cavalry troops of the Victory Army crossed the river from the south bank to the north bank to reorganize their armaments, and then attacked along the river. The target was the defeated soldiers and civilians who would inevitably board the north bank to try to escape.
Su Yonglin's order to the cavalry was to arrest everyone first, kill those who resisted, and then treat officers, petty officials, Jurchen soldiers, Han soldiers and civilians differently.
Before that, they had only one common identity - Jin Bing.
Anyone who dares to resist will be killed without mercy, no matter who they are!
To be honest, Su Yong has never performed a mission alone since he led the cavalry unit with the service name Huben Battalion on the battlefield.
When he ambushed the Jin Army cavalry, he repeatedly asked Su Yonglin to let him take the cavalry to participate in the previous encirclement and annihilation of the Jin Army cavalry, but Su Yonglin decisively refused.
"Do you know how much effort it takes me to train one of you? How much money does it cost? There is no perfect solution, don't even think about it! Your life and the lives of all the cavalry are not your own, they all belong to the Shengjie Army!"
Su Yonglin's voice was fierce and he shouted loudly, while Su Yong was obedient and did not dare to argue. He was as weak as a newborn yellow rabbit.
In the end, they had nothing to do with the attack on the Jin army's camp, which made Su Yong quite desperate - even if we are weak, we can't completely stop fighting, right? Then how can you become stronger?
Of course Su Yonglin understands this truth, so Su Yonglin is not just a rare cavalryman. If the occasion is right, he is still willing to let the cavalry go to the battlefield to see blood, practice riding skills and mounted combat.
Isn't this a good time?
Wait on the north bank. After the defeated troops are on the north bank, go and train. That will be your training ground.
Let's take action against those Jin soldiers who have lost their souls and have no unified command. Let's fight and see blood!
Su Yong was extremely excited, shouting the slogan "The Tiger is Mighty", and led a group of capable subordinates to rush in like lightning, bringing complete despair to the defeated troops on the north bank who had finally escaped.
The north bank had just begun to despair, but the south bank had long been desperate. It was so desperate that Asu in Jiagu only thought about escaping, and never thought about regrouping his troops to counterattack the victory of the victory.
He sleeps more deeply and wakes up later.
The alcohol last night had a really big impact on him, and he felt like he slept through the finale.
He was hurriedly woken up by the soldiers. After being shaken awake, he was still angry and wanted to beat someone. He kicked the soldiers who woke him up on the ground and beat him severely. After beating him for a while, he was beaten by other soldiers. The soldiers informed them of the current situation.
The camp was raided, and it was now a sea of fire. The troops couldn't gather together at all, and they didn't know how to fight back. There was a chaos of drums and trumpets, and the soldiers only gathered thirty or fifty people, waiting for Jiagu A Quick decision.
Fight back or run away?
It seems that there are two choices. In fact, the soldiers think that Jiagu Asu will not be so crazy that he chooses the first one.
Jiagu Asu walked out of his military tent with eyes wide open.
At this time, the sky was not bright yet, but only dimly bright. A piece of fish belly white had just appeared on the horizon, so the firelight seemed a bit dazzling.
He looked around and saw a sea of fire outside. The blazing flames were also mixed with the screams of people and the neighing of horses.
An apocalyptic scene.
"Who attacked us?"
"have no idea."
"How many people?"
"have no idea."
"Are we going to suffer a lot of casualties?"
"have no idea."
"Why is this happening?"
"have no idea."
"What do you know?"
"..."
The soldiers looked at the straight-eyed Jiagu Asu with strange eyes, unable to say a word.
They are just a group of soldiers responsible for fighting. What can they know?
Jiagu Asu was completely panicked, so he asked this question.
In the sea of fire, Jiagu Asu and his soldiers fell into a strange silence.
It was the killing cry of a victorious army that woke up Jiagu Asu, who had just woken up and his head was still a little unclear.
Hearing the shouts of killing so close at hand, Jiagu Asu was shocked, broke out in a cold sweat, and quickly regained his senses.
"Protect me! Protect me, protect me!!!"
He howled uncontrollably and immediately hid behind the soldiers. The soldiers reacted quickly enough and immediately retreated to the west with Jiagu Asu.
No one will go east, only to the west, where there is a way to escape.
But the small detachment of the victorious army seemed to have noticed the golden soldiers escaping in groups, and immediately shouted and pursued them.
While chasing, they fired several crossbow arrows, killing three of Jiagu Asu's soldiers on the spot. Jiagu Asu screamed in fright and sped up his escape.
In fact, they were only pursued by two combat groups of the Shengjie Army, with only twenty people. However, because of the momentum of the pursuit, they overwhelmed the Jiagu Asu soldiers who had the upper hand. They pursued them all the way and killed them again. Three or five soldiers.
At the critical moment, Jiagu Asu ran the wrong way again and ran into two other combat groups who were chasing the defeated troops, which was convenient for the Shengjie army to attack from both front and back.
The combat team of the Shengjie Army is based on squads. When fighting in terrains with buildings and complicated roads that are inconvenient to deploy, Su Yonglin advocated using a combat team composed of ten people in a squad as the basic combat unit.
Although this kind of combat team is small, it is well-equipped, including sword and shield bearers, crossbowmen, and spearmen. Although the number is small, once it encounters an enemy, it can quickly form a military formation and move forward.
This was one of the tactics that Su Yonglin had practiced with the Shengjie Army whenever he had time in the past few months. It was of great use when attacking the town defense barracks and the Meng'an Village of civilian households. They were the two tactics that the Shengjie Army was most familiar with at the moment. One of the tactics.
The other one is, of course, the stacked formation.
Although the combat team is small in number, they can quickly unite with each other. Basic units are basic units. Once they encounter a relatively large number of enemies, the tactical team can also unite together to form a larger military formation to launch an attack. .
The conversion and combination between large military formations and small military formations is also one of the compulsory items in the daily military training of the Shengjie Army, and the training officers pay close attention to it.
Right now, it's time for four combat groups to attack a group of enemies in two directions.
Needless to say, the soldiers of Jiagu Asu are quite elite and good at fighting. Not to mention that they all have armors on their bodies. They did not panic when they were attacked from two directions. They immediately formed two military formations back to back and started to engage the Shengjie army at the same time. confrontation.
They protected the desperate Jiagu Asu in the middle, resisted desperately, and fought fiercely with the Shengjie army with machetes in their hands.
However, although they were brave, they lacked the length of their weapons because they did not have long spears. Although they tried their best to block them with a small number of shields, they were ultimately unable to gain an advantage on the battlefield where every inch was long and every inch strong.
The long gunners of the Shengjie Army pointed their spears at them and stabbed them. If the stab failed, they would stab them again. If the stab failed, they would stab them again.
Even though these elite soldiers were wearing armor, they could not stop the armor-piercing spears from thrusting forward at close range. The sharp spear points that shone with cold light hit the target with one hit, and could take away the life of a soldier in an instant. In a short time, Seven or eight soldiers died from spear thrusts.
Seeing that this was not the way to go, the remaining soldiers had no choice but to retain a few people to continue to protect Jiagu Asu, while the remaining people carried their shields with the intention of dying and launched a desperate attack.
