Chapter 413 Imposing manner
"kill!!!"
A deafening roar sounded, and a sour sound of bone fractures sounded at the battle between the two sides. Spray stem fragments and helmets flew around, and people and horses kept colliding. At this time, the impact was a more deadly attack than a weapon.
At the last moment before the impact, both sides were uncontrolled and wanted to avoid it, but the Qi army was too dense and the horses had no room to hide.
The Jurchens who leave too much space between people will suffer a lot. Many people's weapons are led by their mounts, and the more dense formations of the Qi army can allow them to attack one enemy at the same time with more weapons.
Coupled with the protective advantages of the armor of the man and horse, these conditions combined, gave Qi army a certain advantage in the first wave of impact.
The front rows of both sides were about 100 cavalry each, and the Qi army lost more than 40 people, basically they were knocked off the horse by the enemy, while the Jurchens suffered more than 60.
The gap between the Qi army was much shorter than that of the Jurchens. After the first collision, the second row of the Qi army's armored iron cavalry came towards him with long spears in an instant. The remaining Jurchen cavalry in the first row had no chance of evading and were almost all knocked down.
The first row of Qi army did not stop at all and continued to attack the second row of Jurchens. There was another dense sound of collision on the battlefield, and many cavalry fell off their horses.
At this time, no matter how good the riding is, it is of no use in such a fancy battle.
The only thing the cavalry on both sides can rely on is courage and discipline.
Well, maybe the Qi army cavalry can count on the heavy armor on their bodies.
The first row of Qi army armored iron cavalry moved forward bravely without any evasion. They broke through the five Jurchen lines in succession, losing more than 80%. After exchanging almost twice the lives, they basically lost all their losses.
But the cavalry in the second and third rows still plunged up without hesitation, as if everyone didn't take their lives in their eyes. They were all thinking about rushing to the end, and one life was exchanged for another life.
Finally, in this competition of courage, the Jurchens began to shake.
When the second row of the Qi army's iron cavalry approached the seventh row of the Jurchen cavalry, the morale of the last three rows of light cavalry in the Jurchen cavalry formation collapsed and fled directly.
The Qi cavalry only felt that as soon as they opened, the Jurchen cavalry formation had been completely penetrated.
The follow-up dracos continued to shout and followed up, using a sabre to exchange for life with the enemy at the moment when they crossed the front row Jurchens.
After the 8th platoon of Qi's cavalry passed by the Jurchens, the result of the cavalry battle came out. The Qi army lost more than 150 breastplate cavalry and more than 50 dragon cavalry ranks behind.
The Jurchens lost about 00 cavalry, which was a little larger than the Qi army. However, more than 00 people fled, and their impact was of course gone.
The Qi cavalry did not turn back to deal with the Jurchens who were completely unethical. They adhered to the spirit of the indomitable cavalry of the breastplate and directly launched an attack on Wanyan Yinshuke's own formation.
During the charge, all the surviving officers howled desperately and tried to reorganize the cavalry wall during the charge.
The rear cavalry continued to accelerate, filling the gap left by the dead comrades in front. The trumpeters puffed their cheeks and blew the harsh syllables hard. The Qi army cavalry was full of morale and crashed directly towards Wanyan Silver Shuike like a train!
Wanyan Yinshu looked at the Qi cavalry who was rushing towards him in a daze, and could not say a word.
The confrontation between the two armies and one thousand cavalrymen was decided instantly!
Silver Skill only feels cold hands and feet.
At this time, on the other side of the battlefield, the Jurchen cavalry did not unexpectedly break through the flank of the Qi army's infantry, and the first formation on the central front was being beaten by the Qi army's muskets when they approached a distance of 50 steps.
If he continues to attack the central Qi army at this time, then there is no doubt that his flank will be attacked by Qi cavalry.
Silver Technique can not have that much confidence in his own infantry and can maintain an offensive in the other direction under the threat of cavalry.
But if he stopped to defend against the cavalry attack, then there was no doubt that the Qi army would quickly defeat the first formation of the Jurchen army in the central front. In this way, Wanyan Silver Skill would probably not even have a chance to enter hand-to-hand combat.
The commander of the Jurchens was in a dilemma.
However, this inner struggle lasted for a short time. It was not that Wanyan Yinshu made any decision, but that his subordinates made a choice for him - more than 3,000 Aha slave soldiers following the Jurchen armored soldiers were frightened by the Qi cavalry!
Someone first shouted, and the Aha slaves who had no fighting will burst out screaming like thunder and scattered in the opposite direction of the Qi cavalry charging!
Thousands of people collapsed at the same time, which brought serious consequences. Many young Jurchens in the Silver Skill also lost their confidence in fighting and inexplicably fled with Aha and others.
Then some veterans realized that the outcome of the battle had been decided, and gave up their responsibilities and began to find a way out.
The northern part of Goryeo is filled with mountains and large groups of people cannot pass through, but a few people still have the opportunity to escape from the hands of the Qi army.
It was like overturning a row of dominoes. Before the battle had occurred, Wanyan's Yinshuke's central army collapsed under the terrifying pressure of the cavalry.
Even Wanyan Yinshuke himself gave up his duty as commander and led about 200 guard cavalry to flee eastward, trying to enter the mountainous area from where to go.
The cavalry with armored breastplate was insufficient in strength and could not pursue him, but the hunting cavalry had no intention of letting him go. About 300 cavalrymen tightly grasped the banner of Silver Sword Ke without letting go.
Silver Technique escaped from the battlefield, which triggered the Jurchens' general collapse. The infantry on the central front and the cavalry on the other side threatening the flank of the Qi army all turned their heads and fled randomly regardless of the care. The Qi army's infantry immediately launched a general attack. The troops were mainly composed of about ten people, and they all chased and killed the Jurchens' defeated soldiers.
Xu Shiyang sprinkled out the Central Army Guard cavalry, all the reconnaissance cavalry, breastplate cavalry, and breastplate cavalry, and drove away the Jurchen defeated soldiers and fled south.
It was like a hunting battle, thousands of Jurchen defeated soldiers were driven from Kaicheng to the Linjin River by only a few hundred Qi cavalry. Many Jurchens who were panicked did not care whether they could swim or not, jumped directly into the Linjin River.
The Jurchens were floating in the river. Many people were swept into the sea with the current, and more people sank directly and could no longer float.
The remaining exhausted soldiers knelt down and begged for mercy.
From Kaicheng to Linjin River, dozens of miles away, there were dead bodies everywhere. Most of these Jurchens were directly exhausted in extreme horror, and only a few were caught up and killed by Qi cavalry.
Almost no one resisted during this period.
