Chapter 101 The Peak Showdown (Continued Part 1)
Chapter 101: Peak duel (continued)
The Pisjun fell down in pieces, and the ground was getting more and more minced, and the accumulation was getting thicker and thicker. Yelu Hongji saw it and felt very distressed. The feeling was like someone was pulling his heart and tearing it apart.
The Pisch Army is the most elite army of the Liao Kingdom. Everyone has chosen and tried many battles. Even the entire Liao Kingdom has only tens of thousands of people. Each one is a treasure. How could Yelu Hongji not feel sorry for losing so much at once?
No matter how sad the heart is, there is still something to be gratified, that is, no one in the Pisces Army retreats, no one is afraid. Even though they know that they are rushing up to die, they do not retreat, even a little bit!
Wu Ji really understood the bravery of the Pi Shijun. They rushed up and harvested Modao in pieces. No matter how hard they tried, they could not step beyond the thunder pool. However, no one showed any timidity. Even if it was a little bit, the one behind died and the one behind pounced on without hesitation.
As soon as the front died, the back was filled with the next one, without any hesitation. This was the first time Wu Ji encountered such a brave army, and he was frightened to see it.
A true warrior demands not to be afraid of death, but not to die. The Mo Dao is extremely sharp and unstoppable, and his flesh and blood cannot resist it at all. This has long been proven in the hundreds of years of glory of the Tang Dynasty. It is tantamount to death for the Piss Army to rush up like this. Even though he knows it is death, he still rushes up like this. I wonder if it is brave or stupid?
"My God! Liao Gou is tired of living? He goes forward so far when he dies!" Li Mingchu was frightened and wiped the cold sweat from his forehead, his eyes widened: "If other Liao Gou had escaped in this situation, he would have been gone to death. Who would have come to die?"
"If I hadn't seen it with my own eyes, I wouldn't believe it!" Wu Ji nodded, sighed, and said, "Not afraid of death is different from dying. If I were Yelu Hongji, I would decisively order the Pishi army to withdraw and think of him. Fighting like this is purely a reckless act!"
"Yelu Hongji is just a stubborn! The more Liao dogs die, the better!" Li Mingchu's eyes flashed, and the best thing is to die of the Piss Army.
"Kill all the people in the southern world!" The Pishou Army could not capture it for a long time. Not only was it not afraid, but it was more powerful and roared louder. When he looked at the Song army, it was like a hunter looking at the prey.
This kind of vision and this expression were the common vision of the Liao army on the battlefield in the past. At that time, the Liao army was really hunters, while the Song army was prey.
Now, no matter how brave the Pishou Army is or how afraid of death, it cannot exceed the thunder pool!
"Kill all the Liao dogs!" Song Jun did not show any weakness at all, roared like a mountain, and the weapons in his hand greeted Pi Shijun fiercely.
On one side, they yelled "kill all the people in the south" and on the other side, they yelled "kill all the people in the Liao dog". The two sides refused to give in, just like singing, and no one was willing to be outdone. The roars came one after another and resounded throughout the nine heavens.
"Cabines, go out!" Wu Ji looked at the battlefield situation, waved his right hand, and ordered decisively.
"The Liaogou has not been defeated yet, why did he use cavalry?" Li Mingchu was a little puzzled and looked at Wu Ji in surprise.
"It's too late to wait until Liaogou retreats!" Wu Ji raised his eyebrows and said, "Although the Pishu army is not afraid of death, Yelu Hongji cannot let them die too much. He will definitely order a retreat. I have to use cavalry to cut off the Pishu army's retreat route first, and we cannot let the Pishu army run away."
Although the Piss Army is the most elite army of the Liao Kingdom, it rarely appears on the battlefield and is more of a deterrent force. As it is now, the Piss Army has not been fought on the battlefield several times in the Liao Kingdom's history for more than 100 years. If the Piss Army runs away, it is a missed opportunity, and Wu Ji will regret it.
Kill the Pi Shijun and prevent them from retracting. This is what Wu Ji thinks!
"Appoint, withdraw!" Sure enough, just as Wu Ji issued the order, Yelu Hongji ordered the Pishi army to retreat.
The Piss Army had amazing combat power, but it was too precious and could not lose too much. After this battle, Yelu Hongji understood that the Song army's combat power was too strong, and even the Piss Army could not do anything. There was no need to continue to fight. It should be the best to protect the Piss Army.
He was very decisive in his handling of the situation, but it was a little late. As soon as his order was issued, he heard the sound of "rumbling" hooves. The Song cavalry rushed out like a storm and penetrated the back of the Pishou Army.
If the Pishu Army's retreat was cut off, what would be wrong? There would be few Pishu Army's retreat. How could Yelu Hongji let this happen? He ordered to shoot the Song cavalry with a strong crossbow.
The powerful crossbow is very powerful. Once it is shown, it will inevitably cause huge damage to the Song Dynasty cavalry, and it is inevitable to withdraw the Pishou Army. Unfortunately, Wu Ji had already calculated that the Song army's cavalry was divided into two parts, and some were directly inserted into the back of the Pishou Army, and some were directly attacking the powerful crossbow.
The crossbow arrows of the powerful crossbow are as thick as a wine glass, and they are more than meter long. Once shot out, the flesh and blood cannot be stopped at all. It is crucial to prevent the powerful crossbow from showing its power. Zhou Wei was the one who carried out this mission. He directed the Song army's cavalry to rush over like a storm, and the one who greeted them was the cavalry of the Pishou Army.
Needless to say, the bravery of the Pishou Army is very exquisite. They are lined up in neat formations and rushed over like a sea of rushing towards them, with a shocking power and murderous intent.
"Hmph! Compared to cavalry and shooting, will the warriors of the Liao Dynasty lose to the southerners?" Yelu Hongji looked at the cavalry of the Pisses who rushed away, and was very proud.
The Khitans were nomadic peoples. They grew up on horseback and were skilled in riding and shooting. They would not lose to any army than cavalry. Even the Tang Dynasty army was not afraid.
However, the progress of the war was far beyond his imagination. When the bows and arrows of the Piss Army could not reach the Song cavalry, the crossbows of the Song cavalry were powerful, and the overwhelming crossbow arrows shot over and covered the Pissess Army cavalry.
Although the Pishou Army had armor on its body, it still could not block the crossbow arrows, and there were many people who fell from the horse. Fortunately, the Pishou Army was brave and although there were many casualties, there was no slight chaos. The formation was still purged and rushed towards the Song cavalry like a scattered sea of storms.
With the rainy crossbow arrows, the cavalry of the Pishi Army finally rushed to the range of bows and arrows, bent his bows and arrows, and shot the strong arrows at the Song army cavalry. It was exactly the same as the situation just now. Many Song army cavalry were caught and fell off the horse, killing and injured.
Although the Song army was injured, they were not afraid at all. They were as powerful as rainbows, and the sound of killing shocked the sky, and rushed towards the Pishi cavalry.
The two armies shot at each other in the hedge, and countless casualties were killed and injured, and there were many people who fell from the horse. Finally, both sides collected their crossbows at the same time. The cavalry of the Sesse Army drew out the scimitar, held it high, roared, and wanted to kill all the southerners and rushed forward.
However, to their surprise, the Song cavalry did not draw out the sword of the enemy, but rushed towards them with a spear in his hands.
Countless spears are shining with cold light and neatly arranged, just like a poisonous snake that wants to choose people. The shiny spear tips are like the snake letters of a poisonous snake, making people feel cold.
"Not good!" Yelu Hongji had absolute confidence in the cavalry of the Pisch Army and believed that he would definitely suppress the Song army's cavalry. However, when he saw a spear appear, he knew that something was wrong.
Sure enough, the Song cavalry held a spear and rushed towards the Pishi cavalry without hesitation. The spear stabbed the Pishi cavalry hard and knocked them off.
"Ah! Ah! Ah!"
Heart-wrenching screams sounded, and countless cavalrymen of the Siemens were shot and fell off the horse, either dead or injured. Those who were not dead kept rolling and screamed shrillly.
The tip of the gun kept trembling, just like a poisonous snake drinking blood waving its tail happily, which was terrifying.
Although the formation of the cavalry of the Pishou Army was neat, after being hit so violently, they had to be confused. The small chaos on the battlefield often turned into big chaos or even big defeats.
It is precisely based on this understanding that Wu Jicai equipped the Song Dynasty cavalry with spears. The purpose of equipting spears was to kill many enemies, but to create chaos for the enemy and make the Song army cavalry stand on a higher *** in the subsequent chopping and slaughter.
The chaos was a good opportunity for the Song cavalry to kill, pull out the sword of the capstone, and slashed the cavalry at the Pishi Army. Their sword technique was not at all under the Pishi Army, and there was the sharpness of the sword of the capstone and the initiative they had just seized. When this sword was like a tiger entering a flock of sheep, the cavalry of the Pishi Army could no longer resist it. Under the charge of the Song cavalry, they retreated step by step, and the chaos became increasingly greater.
"This is impossible! Impossible!" Yelu Hongji saw the situation on the battlefield and couldn't help but scream.
Cavalry is the greatest advantage of the Liao Kingdom. For more than a hundred years, the reason why the Liao Kingdom was able to suppress the Song Dynasty was because the Liao Kingdom had elite cavalry. When the Song Dynasty mentioned the Liao Kingdom's cavalry, it was frightened and no one dared to compete with the Liao Kingdom's cavalry head-on.
Although Yelu Hongji knew that the Song army was different now, it was really difficult to make him believe that the Song cavalry could fight against the Pishi cavalry. He would rather believe that the sun came out from the west than that it was true.
"I must have read it wrong!"
"It's dazzled!"
"I'm dazzled!"
Not only Yelu Hongji did not believe it, but even the ministers did not believe it. They rubbed their eyes hard and thought they had read it wrong. However, after rubbing and rubbing, the result was the same. The Song cavalry pressed the Pishi cavalry and fought, which made the Pishi cavalry unable to fight back and retreated step by step.
Among these people, only one person believed that this was true, and this person was Han Ju. He saw the situation in his eyes, shook his head, and sighed secretly: "The era of the Great Liao dominance may have really passed! The reason why the Great Liao can dominate for a hundred years is that the Southern Dynasties were too weak! The biggest problem that the Southern Dynasties' army was not as good as the elite of the Great Liao was that it had not trained elite cavalry. When the Southern Dynasties mentioned the Great Liao Iron Cavalry, they thought it was irresistible. In fact, it was because they scared themselves and scared their courage!"
