They have already climbed to the high ground captured by the vanguard battalion.
They fired at the Jin soldiers diagonally below.
These Han soldiers of the Jin Dynasty had a low rate of wearing armor.
Moreover, they mainly wore leather armor.
They simply couldn't withstand the arrows.
After firing dozens of arrows from their high vantage point,
A large-scale rout occurred among the Han soldiers of the Jin state.
The Jin camp's defenses collapsed completely.
Saba led the Jurchen elites who had not been entangled.
They quickly retreated and mounted their warhorses.
They had only forty-odd riders left.
They retreated while firing as the vanguard charged in.
More Ming Dynasty cavalrymen scaled the stockade walls.
They fired a barrage of arrows at the forty-odd gold cavalry.
Several riders fell from their horses in succession.
Jin Jiang Sa Ba fled in panic.
Wang De led his troops in pursuit of the routed army.
Several dozen vanguard warriors were dispatched.
Go and move the pile of yellow earth inside the village gate.
Then they opened the gates of the stockade to welcome in more friendly troops.
The entourage had already ridden back from the battlefield.
They drove the cavalry's horses into the camp.
At the same time, some men were assigned to equip the heavy cavalry with horse armor.
Due to congestion at the valley entrance
The main force of the Jin state is approaching again.
Several hundred warhorses didn't have time to retreat back into the valley.
They drove the warhorses away directly outside the valley.
We'll retrieve it after the battle is over.
Thousands of Ming heavy cavalry,
Head outside the valley to mount your horse.
They were evacuated into the valley in batches.
Chen Ziyi ordered, "The soldiers retreat into the camp,"
"They all shouted loudly,"
"Pretend we haven't breached the enemy camp yet!"
"Some came from various places outside the stockade walls, and also from the hillsides on both sides,"
"Raising guns and shooting arrows, pretending to be in the midst of a battle."
This is because they fear the camp has already fallen.
They scared away the main force of the Jin army.
Chapter 233 Highest Military Pay
The valley is rugged.
The situation inside is not clear from the outside.
In fact, it didn't matter if the Jin camp wasn't breached.
As long as they take advantage of the narrow terrain to fight a bloody battle on both sides
Delaying as much time as possible is considered completing the mission. Break through the enemy camp.
It was just an unexpected bonus.
Wanyan Loushi heard the sounds of fighting and roaring.
Without thinking, he gave the order:
"Our camp is still intact; we will attack the Ming army from both sides!"
This time, they directly invested in Hezha Meng'an.
Both men and horses were clad in heavy armor.
They rushed into the valley in small groups.
.....
Due to the narrowness of the valley,
One thousand Ming heavy cavalry
They were divided into several groups and lined up.
On both sides of the hillside,
There were also some dismounted cavalrymen kneeling and crouching.
The reason for adopting a kneeling or squatting posture is...
It's because the slope is too steep and the foot is unstable.
Chen Ziyi arrived behind the first wave of heavy cavalry and shouted:
"Has there been any deduction of rations or pay?"
"no!"
The heavy cavalry answered in unison.
Chen Ziyi then asked, "Are there any shortages of clothing or bedding?"
"no!"
"You are receiving the highest military pay in the Ming Dynasty,"
"Eating the best food in the entire army,"
"Clothing and blankets will also be distributed in winter,"
Has the imperial court treated you poorly?
"no!"
"The barbarians of the Jin Kingdom across the way,"
"They burned, killed, looted, and committed all sorts of atrocities."
"If the Jurchens were to invade your homeland,"
"They'll steal your food,"
"Taking your land,"
“We will kidnap your wives and children.”
"It means being a compliant citizen,"
"We also have to shave off the hair our parents gave us,"
"Put on clothes that overlap on the left."
"And they will continue to conscript soldiers and requisition grain endlessly!"
"Do you agree?"
"No!"
"For the Ming Dynasty, for His Majesty,"
"To protect my parents, wife, and children."
"Do you dare to fight to the death and kill the enemy today?"
"dare!"
"dare!"
"dare!"
"The heavily armored knights who died in battle today will all receive generous compensation."
"If a person has a son, the court will select one son to support and raise at the Imperial Academy."
"For those without children, the imperial court will adopt a son on their behalf."
"To pass on the incense and provide for them at the Imperial Academy!"
"Is there anything you regret?"
“No regrets!”
“No regrets!”
Soldiers who climbed to the top of the hill and observed through binoculars.
The flag had already been raised, and Chen Ziyi shouted:
"Beat the drums, charge!"
"kill!"
The Ming heavy cavalry slowly began to move.
Even after acceleration,
The speed of the charge is still relatively slow.
Because they are in a close formation.
The cavalrymen were less than half a meter apart.
Chen Ziyi actually used his most elite heavy cavalry.
Use them as consumables for "wall-style" assaults.
This is because although the Ming army's heavy cavalry was well-equipped,
However, they lack combat skills, combat experience, and resilience.
Then let's just stop thinking about anything else.
Directly in the narrow valley,
They used a dense formation to counter Heza Mengan.
Let's look at Heza Meng'an of the Jin Dynasty.
Their spacing is much larger.
Even though it is limited by the terrain,
The distance between cavalrymen was also reduced to less than one meter.
As for the three riders linked together by ropes...
They dragged barricades behind them to show they would fight to the death and not retreat.
These are all fabricated contents in the memorials of civil officials (Wang Ruohai, a proponent of war).
It is used to describe the terrifying nature of the Jin Dynasty's Iron Pagoda.
