Chapter 738 Invincible Invincible Captain Gao
"King, look, Tongwancheng, Tongwancheng has caught fire, what a big fire..."
A trembling voice sounded in Wei Mingge's ears, and the young King of Xixia and Jin set his eyes on the southern sky. It is still twenty or thirty miles away from Tongwan City, and the tall city walls are already vaguely visible. The smoke pillars rising from the top of the city and rising up to the sky are clearly visible.
How is this possible!?
Brother Cha's heart was thrilled. He understood that Tongwanjian City had been captured by the Song army!
But how could the Song army break through Tongwan City? That is Tongwan City! In Cha Ge's impression, this ancient city built 700 years ago is comparable to the city of Xingqing Prefecture and Lingzhou.
Although the city walls have been a bit old, their strength is no less than that of newly built cities. Moreover, since last autumn, the Left Warrior Army Office has been trying to strengthen the city defense and cut down all the trees that can be used within a radius of 100 miles and made into tiger drops around the city wall and horse surface. Without pulling out these pointed wooden stakes, lightweight flying ladders (that is, long ladders carried by people) cannot be mounted. They must be mounted on wheels and have certain protections to break the tiger drop, or first hit the tiger drop with a shield cart, and then set up the cloud ladder.
If there are no large equipment such as heavy ladders and shield vehicles, soldiers who have to rely on the rolling wood, rocks and arrow rain to pull out the tiger, the casualties will definitely be too great to bear.
Moreover, even if the Song army ignored the death and injury, cleared some of the tigers and set up a long ladder, it would not be equivalent to being able to break through Tongwancheng. Cha Ge left a total of 10,000 defenders in Tongwancheng, and there were 60,000 to 70,000 to 70,000 Dangxiang nationalities to mobilize. If you want to use the Ant Attachment Technique, you will be killed or injured at will!
How many troops did the Song people dispatched to conquer Wancheng? How could they bear such losses?
A series of problems came to Brother Cha's mind, which made him a little at a loss for a moment.
"King, chance!" Li Liangfu, who followed Brother Cha, said loudly, "There must be a fierce battle in Tongwan City! Wuyi Boma is a rare tiger general, not so easy to be defeated... Besides, Tongwan City does not have only one city wall, it is a strong city composed of the East and West cities and the Twenty-Four Fangkuan. Even if the Song army breaks into the city, they can continue to resist.
Therefore, there must be a hard battle in Tongwan City! If the king can lead his troops to arrive in time, then a big victory will be expected."
Brother Cha was still a little confused and thought, "The cavalry of the Song people has not yet been expelled, and the situation around him is unclear..."
The 4,500 rangers that Murong Gu and Wanyan Xie also ruled out made Cha Ge lose control of the surrounding situation. He had no idea how many Song troops were ahead of him, nor did he know their specific location.
"King! How many cavalrymen in Song are talented? How can we do tens of thousands of iron cavalry?" Li Liangfu was a little anxious. "If the king is really worried, then let the general lead the Iron Harrier to meet them! The king just leads the garrison to urgently govern the ten thousand."
Brother Cha was still hesitating, frowning, as if he was repeatedly weighing the pros and cons.
Three thousand iron kites plus the support of the soldiers is 12,000, and the number of people is still a bit small! If you hit the large cavalry of the Song people, are you sure to win? But if you want to increase Li Liangfu's troops, then there will be fewer people going to Tongwan City.
If I had known that Tongwancheng was so unbearable, Xiao Heda would not have taken away 24,000 people...
Seeing that Brother Cha was still thinking, Li Liangfu could no longer wait: "King, the three armies are in danger, hesitation is the greatest!"
"Shiko!" After Li Liangfu said this, Brother Cha suddenly laughed, "I am indeed hesitating... There is a bird that is so scared. We have nearly 50,000 people on hand, and there are thousands in Tongwan City, and they are all elite! If you can't beat this, there is nothing much to say!
Liangfu, I have handed over the Iron Harrier to you, I will beat you hard!"
"It's so bad!" Li Liangfu smiled, "Your Majesty, please take a look!"
...
Gao Qiu suddenly turned around and saw the smoke pillar rising from the top of Tongwan City. He took out the wine pot and drank a sip of the wine fairy. He not only strengthened his courage, but also warmed his body. Then he took a breath of the chilly spring air and said to himself: "What a big fire. I don't know if the Western thieves think so after seeing it. It would be great if they could scare them away... Tongwan City was broken, and they even had to put on their wings and flew over..."
Beside him, the team of armored cavalry had already spread a very wide front.
Gao Qiu selected the black armored cavalry from the Hedong Army, surrounded by Taiwei Gao, and guarded them in groups. These Hedong armored cavalry seemed very nervous, everyone holding bows and arrows tightly, staring at the front. I don’t know if they were preparing to fight with the slowly approaching Western thieves or preparing to protect Gao Qiu to escape?
Murong Gu and Wanyan Xie also led a commander of the imperial horse, scattered around Gao Qiu, and did not form a strict formation, but formed 20 loose teams, each of which had a scale of about 150 people, of which about 50 were armored cavalry, and the rest were auxiliary cavalry.
These 20 teams were divided into two rows, arranged in a V shape on both sides of the black armored front-strike cavalry brigade where Gao Qiu was located, which is the so-called geese formation. However, it was not strict. Each team had dozens of steps away. Looking at the groups of people from east to west, they did not look like a heavy cavalry at all, but they looked like a light cavalry in the grassland.
Gao Qiu had seen the imperial horses in front of the palace and were not playing like this! He had raised objections, but Murong Tu and Wanyan Xie did not listen to him at all! Moreover, Gao Qiu also found that Wu Haogu had "cleaned" the imperial horses, and a large number of knights from the Military Academy were transferred away. At the same time, many "utility knights" hired by Jiehe were added. These people only listened to Murong Tu (actually Wu Haogu). Through them and the dozens of Jurchen fierce people brought by Wanyan Xie, the imperial horses were no longer under Gao Qiu's control...
Gao Qiu looked around and thought to himself: These black armored forward-strikers are reliable! They must be knights, so that their families can be used in the future!
Suddenly, there was a dense sound of horse hooves coming from the front. Gao Qiu, who was full of thought, looked up and saw many rangers of the Song army running from the front. Gao Shixuan, who was born in the Gao family, also rode his horse with several black armored soldiers and the rangers. Gao Shixuan was Gao Qiu's distant relative and was promoted to the commander of the black armored cavalry.
"Taiwei, the Western thief is coming! There are tens of thousands of cavalry, and the iron kite is the head of it!"
"Ten thousand riders...Iron Harriers!?" Gao Qiu suddenly had the idea of turning around and running back to Tong Wancheng.
"Taiwei!Taiwei!"
Before Gao Qiu could run, Murong Tu was already smiling and riding a horse with two people.
"Fifth Brother..." Gao Qiu greeted Murong Gu on the horse's back. Just as he was about to discuss the retreat, Murong Gu spoke first: "Taiwei, the Western thief is coming up, it seems to be an iron kite... Some of them are fighting now!"
Some beat it?
Shouldn't you run away?
"Iron Harrier isn't it easy to fight?" Gao Qiu frowned, "They are the elites of Western thieves!"
"You will know after a fight!" Murong Mu smiled and said, "With the Grand Marshal's supervision, we are not afraid of them."
But this Taiwei was very scared! Gao Qiu wanted to say this very much, but he felt embarrassed again when he spoke.
Murong Gu spoke again: "The Western Pirate Iron Harrier is the vanguard, and there is a brigade behind it... After all, we only have a thousand people, so we can't get involved with them for too long. It's better to rush forward and then retreat to Tongwan City."
Just a while? Gao Qiu was a little relieved.
"How to rush?" Gao Shixuan interrupted, "Does the black armored cavalry join the war?"
Murong Gu said: "It depends on the situation... At that time, I and Xi will also rush to their center with their left and right wings. The twenty teams rushed one after another. If they could be destroyed, the Black Armored Cavalry would cover them and kill them for a while. Then we will retreat!"
Gao Shixuan was a little worried, "It's going to collapse? That's an iron kite!"
"How could it not be destroyed?" Murong Mu smiled, "Twenty teams rushed for a while. If the formation of Iron Harrier was more scattered, just 1,000 riders rushed to him dozens of riders and one hundred riders, how could it not be destroyed?
And the headlines made the real barbarians of the birth of a girl. Those people are so powerful that they can be used as ten people... So if there is no problem, they will definitely be able to defeat the Iron Harrier!"
For a long time, the Jurchens could not even withstand the array of Song army infantry. The reason was that they could continuously attack a little. Once the strength of the Song army's infantry was not adjusted and supplemented, they would definitely be broken.
Now use 1,000 armored cavalry to attack the Iron Harrier Cavalry, how can it not be defeated?
Really? That's the Iron Harrier!!
Gao Qiu looked at Murong Tu with confidence and his heart became active.
"Okay! Then fight for a while!" Gao Qiu said, "Come here, let me knock out my official flag."
"Here!"
The black-armored knights around Gao Qiu responded loudly.
A huge high-character flag quickly flew.
"The commander, it's Gao Qiu!"
Li Liangfu narrowed his eyes, stood up on the stirrup, put his hand on his forehead, and looked at the "high" flag that appeared in the distance.
"It's indeed Gao Qiu!"
"Commander," said a general of the Iron Harrier Team under Li Liangfu, "Gao Qiu has set up a very loose geese formation. It seems that he wants to use riding and shooting to deal with us... he can't resist our Iron Harrier's attack at all!"
"Maybe there is a fraud?"
Li Liangfu shook his head, that's Gao Qiu! It's impossible to make such a low-level mistake, right? Facing Iron Harrier, posing in a formation of riding and shooting, Iron Harrier is a world-famous iron armored cavalry. What's the use of riding a archer?
"Commander, let's charge!" Another team general suggested, "Let a certain team lead the team to kill his mother first!"
Li Liangfu thought for a while, "Let's make an array first! Ten teams are lined up, and then let the warriors use hook locks to tie themselves on the saddle."
Chapter completed!
