Chapter 499: Let go of hatred when the cattle are ready! Ask for a monthly ticket)
Located in Kaiyi County, Yizhou, around the battlefield where the 13th Army of the Song Dynasty blocked the Jindong Road Aggression Army, there was already a mess, with fireworks everywhere, and a sea of corpses and blood!
The 140,000 Jin army led by Wanyan Zonggan, Wanyan Zongpan and Wanyan Zongmin, from the early morning of the 21st, used the power of nine oxen and two tigers to attack the camp of the 13th Army of the Song army and also used the beef formation. No, it should be the Fire Bull Formation (the beef formation is different from the Fire Bull Formation. The Fire Bull Formation not only has beef, but also beef offal, beef bone, butter, and cowhide), and finally broke through the first layer of defense of the Song army camp.
However, the role of these fire bull bombs has ended here. Wu Jie was not an ordinary person in charge of the 13th Army and the Eastern Route Army.
Moreover, he had known about the fire bull bomb for a long time, so of course he took precautions and built a circle of low walls and many artillery positions within the camps stationed by his troops.
However, due to limited time, the second line of defense of the 13th Army camp was built in a hurry, and a low sheep and horse wall was piled up with sandbags. There was also a circle of intermittent trenches outside the sheep and horse wall, which were left behind after taking soil to fill the sandbags. In order to prevent the impact of the Jin thieves' cavalry, after the Jin thieves' fire bull offensive ended, Wu Jie ordered people to drag out all the supplies and surround them between the trenches and the sheep and horse wall. It was said that it was a circle, but it was actually one after another. Because it was really a circle, it was difficult for the enemy to attack, but his own people could not kill them.
It is not a clever defensive way to circle yourself and wait for a beating!
Therefore, the sheep and horse walls, trenches, and large chariot arrays used to replace the red deer forts built by Wu Jie were all in sections. However, the sheep and horse walls, trenches, and the holes left in the sheep and horse walls are staggered, and the enemy cannot directly rush into the defense line formed by the sheep and horse walls through these gaps.
Although this temporary defense line is not very strong, the more than 25,000 soldiers of the 13th Army under Wu Jie were not vegetarians, but they were the "shareholders" of the Song Dynasty, and most of them were the "first generation", while a small number were the "second generation of the government". After more than ten years of development and growth, the Song Dynasty's government soldiers are now in the subversion of their power!
In addition, Zhao Kai not only pointed the regressive gold finger of the Mansion System, but also lit the progressive gold finger of the Military Academy.
So now, the officers in the 13th Army and above are not only soldiers who have experienced battle formations, but also have studied in military academy and have mastered a set of efficient and standardized military command skills!
Wu Jie thought that with such a powerful general and elite soldiers, plus 32 long cannons, hot pot cannons, and more than 200 camel cannons, guarding a camp and resisting more than 100,000 outdated Jin thieves, isn’t it a piece of cake?
But when the fierce attack of the Jin soldiers really began, Wu Jie was still shocked. Because he saw the word "fighting hard" from the attacking Jin soldiers. This was something Wu Jie, who had fought with the Jin thieves for more than ten years, had never seen it before.
Perhaps before the great victory of Bubu Dagang, the Jin soldiers would have to fight with all their lives!
If you don’t fight, how can you overthrow the world of the Great Liao Dynasty?
If you don’t fight, how could the Great Jin Kingdom appear in the world?
But when Wu Jie met the Jin soldiers, they were strong, but they were already very powerful, and they all made great fortunes. Although their martial arts were not abandoned and their experience in using cold weapons was unparalleled, they also began to cherish their lives!
When they met Zhao Kai and Zhao Kai's soldiers who had sacrificed their lives to fight against the Jin Dynasty, they began to shrink their hands and feet and refused to fight to the death, otherwise Zhao Kai would never be able to reach the point he is now!
But now, the time has come for the time when the Great Jin Kingdom, which once had a great family and a great business, must fight to the death. If it doesn't fight, the Great Jin Kingdom will be gone, and the lives of the Jurchen warriors below will not be saved!
So now hard work is not only a way to protect the country, but also a way to save your life!
If you fight to the death, it will be a life of nine deaths. If you don’t fight to the death, it will be a life of ten deaths.
Therefore, starting from the morning of April 21, the Jin people's brigade of infantry, supported by camel copper and hot pot cannons, no matter how much the cost, they would rush into the camps stationed by the 13th Army and completely pulled out the nail on their way to rescue Jinzhou!
The more than 100,000 Jin soldiers in front of the 13th Army really started to fight desperately!
Because this battle in Jinzhou might be the last battle of the Great Jin Empire. Such a crazy impact has caused the defense line set by Wu Jie to fall into crisis again and again, which can be said to be dangerous.
But what made Wu Jie's opponents Wanyan Zonggan, Wanyan Zongpan and Wanyan Zongqiang feel extremely frustrated was that even if the Jin soldiers under their command were really desperate, they still had a breath to break the rock-solid defense of the Song army.
It's really just one breath away!
On the afternoon of the 21st and on the morning of the 22nd, the most elite infantry of the Great Jin Kingdom, the Yellow-Head Jurchens, had already rushed into the Song army's sheep and horse wall and started a hand-to-hand battle with the Song people's infantry. However, beyond the expectations of the three "Da Wanyan", the Song army inside the sheep and horse wall was actually very good at fighting. They used long-handed spears, big swords and long-handed axes to kill all the dead soldiers of the Yellow-Headed Hard Army!
Of course, the reason why the yellow-headed strong army who could be beaten to death was to resist the layers of firepower of the Song army, breaking many obstacles, and finally rushing into the sheep and horse wall was too small, that is, too many people died on the way to charge.
If the three "Da Wanyan" still had thousands of brave beef cattle in their hands, no, they were fire cattle, and they could fight another round of fire cattle offensive and clear the obstacles in front of the Song army's second line of defense, perhaps more yellow-headed hard-army rush into the Song army's sheep and horse wall!
If the firearms of the Great Jin Kingdom were more powerful, the camel tube had a higher firing rate and a longer firing range. If the hot pot cannon was shot more accurately, it could suppress the firepower of the Song army and help the yellow-headed Jurchens defeat the Song army.
But the problem is that the three big "Wanyans" now have neither better and more powerful firearms nor awesome, they don't have awesome at hand!
It would be fine if there was no good firearm, but there was no.
But the Great Jin Kingdom has cows. Not to mention thousands of cows, even if you want tens of thousands of cows, you can still get them.
However, the three "Da Wanyan" only brought a few thousand cows to the battlefield. Now these cows have been sacrificed. Some of them have been eaten by the cruel Song army!
So they didn't have enough bulls to fight another wave of the Fire Bull Formation.
This is so awesome that I hate you only when I use it!
If the Jin Kingdom lost a critical battle because it did not bring thousands of more cows, and would destroy the country, it would have broken these three Da Wanyans.
When it was early morning on April 23, in the eyes of Wanyan Zonggan, who was personally supervising the battle, everything on the battlefield seemed to have become a doomsday scene. The end of the Great Jin Dynasty was not the doomsday of the Song Dynasty!
On the north of the Song army camp where the battle was most intense, the corpses of soldiers on both sides were laid layer by layer in front of the Song army formation. At some of them, they were even piled up as high as the walls of sheep and horses, and most of these corpses were left by Jin soldiers!
Many of them were killed by the Song people's artillery, some were shot to death by the Song people's arrows, some were killed by thunder, and of course many were killed while fighting face to face with the Song people's soldiers.
There were too many dead people. The blood flowed out of these corpses dyed the earth red. The blood was so much that even the land could not be absorbed. Finally, it turned into red streams and flowed into the Daling River on the east side of the battlefield. The water on the west bank of the Daling River was burned into red.
Wanyan Zonggan knew that Wanyan Zongpan and Wanyan Zongqiang had really done their best, especially Wanyan Zongpan, who had put out their old achievements to fight. Most of the yellow-headed Jurchens who died in front of the Song army were subordinates of Wanyan Zonggan and Wanyan Zonggu. According to the report obtained by Zonggan, in the battle from the 21st to the present, these yellow-headed Jurchens alone had no less than 5,000 deaths!
If we add other Jurchens, Bohai and Khitan soldiers who died in front of the Song army, the total number of them has exceeded 10,000!
The total number of Jin soldiers brought by Wanyan Zonggan, Wanyan Zongpan and Wanyan Zongqiang was only about 140,000 or less than three days, and the casualties were nearly 10%.
Wanyan Zongpan and Wanyan Zongqiang can fight to this point. Wanyan Zong is really not good at doing it, but the problem is that their efforts have not been successful!
The troops of Wanyan Zongbi in the southwest are too far from Jinzhou. Even if they can break the blockade of the Song army, it is probably difficult to rescue Jinzhou. At most, they will be able to capture the Jinxi camp of the Song army.
But now Jinzhou is in danger. Once Jinzhou is occupied by the Song army, the Song army besieged Jinzhou will go north to Yizhou, Zonggan, Zongpan and Zongqiang, who are led by 130,000 people, may not be able to escape defeat.
By then, even if Wanyan Zongbi conquered Jinxi, he would not be able to save the overall situation!
The big gold is about to be finished!
Wanyan Zonggan was already terminally ill. If he had kept it well at home, he might have been better, but he had to supervise the battle in the town and witnessed the defeat. He was a little dizzy and was about to fall.
Just as Wanyan Zong was shaking, he suddenly remembered Wanyan Zongqiang's roar: "Wuben, something big is wrong, Jinzhou has fallen!"
"What?" Wanyan Zonghan turned his head and looked at Wanyan Zongqiang who was riding on the horse with a panic look on his face, "What did you say?"
Wanyan Zongqiang was almost crying, "Oben, Jinzhou was captured by the southerners last night. The southerners' army has been chasing the Jinzhou defenders who broke through last night. Now it is only twenty miles away from us!"
It's really over!
Wanyan Zonggan suddenly turned dark in front of him, and all the strength in his body seemed to disappear. When he became weak, he collapsed and lost consciousness.
