In the Southern Song Dynasty, I competed with Mongolia for the world

Chapter 283
The opponent did not attack them in front, but went around to their side, where the Tibetan cavalry formation was relatively weak.

"Stop it, stop it, stop it for me." Ruo Gaidema knew that now was the critical time, no matter what, he had to block the party members.

As long as they withstand their charge and block them on the spot, as soon as the other cavalry units surround them, this wave of party members will be finished.

But this is easier said than done.

His cavalry turned in the direction of Song Jun's charge, trying to meet it.

Buzz, there was a buzz in the air, and a black rain of arrows took the lead in throwing themselves into the Tibetan army.

The scene was once again filled with screams, and people fell from their horses everywhere.

Some of the Tubo troops fired back, and some fell off their horses on the opposite side. But the next moment, with a rumble, the Song cavalry rushed into the Tubo formation like a torrent of steel.

The two sides fought head-to-head.

Although the Song army's cavalry was small, they were tightly knitted together and well-armed. The nearly [-] cavalry occupied less than one-tenth of the space occupied by the [-] cavalry on the opposite side.

The Tibetan cavalry was close to [-], but it stretched for several miles and the formation was long and loose. Those in front did not want to fight, and those behind them did not want to advance.

In addition, most of them don't even have leather armor.

The two sides faced each other, and everywhere there were the screams of the Tubo people falling from their horses.

The Song army was very sophisticated. They fought hand-to-hand on the outside to open the way, and they tore Jogaidema's cavalry in two like a machete chopping vegetables.

The Song army in the middle continued to throw arrows to the outside from time to time, and the arrows kept falling like rain.

If Gaidema's cavalry couldn't stop it at all, the front was cut down and fell to the ground, and the backs moved to both sides to avoid it.

Don't talk about being blocked at this time, everyone wishes to avoid it first.

Shader couldn't believe what he saw.

Although Meng Gong reminded him that the Tubo people might not be beaten, he did not expect that the Tubo people would be so bad.

It's no wonder that in history, the Tubo people surrendered directly without being taught a lesson by the Mongols. They probably knew that they were too weak.

He originally just wanted to turn around and charge, cut off the Tubo people, rely on the strength of his armor to cut the Tubo cavalry into two pieces, and then turn around and cut again in another direction.

But looking at it now, the Tubo people are simply vulnerable, and all the ministries are not on the same page.

He immediately made a decision and waved his sword to face Jogaidema: "Keep an eye on this and fight. As long as you praise their forwards, the Tibetans will be defeated."

"Put up the flag." Following Shader's voice, several flags spread out in the air, all of which were carried on the backs of Xixia soldiers.

Wherever the flag is directed, the whole army marches forward, and no military orders are given, and no retreat is allowed.

With a rumble, Shader turned his horse's head halfway through the charge, and the whole army rushed towards the Jogaidema tribe.

At this time, many Xixia cavalry wearing Zha armor threw away their bows and arrows and all took swords.

Jogaidema on the other side looked shocked and frightened.

His cavalry formation had just been penetrated by the Dangxiang people. He originally thought that the Dangxiang people would go around to the other side after getting an advantage. Unexpectedly, the Dangxiang people turned around and charged towards him again.

He looked around nervously and desperately ordered all the surrounding troops to gather in the center and surround the party members.

When he glanced at the farthest Tibetan cavalry, he was still two miles away, and he almost spit out a mouthful of blood.

Although the team drawn by [-] cavalry is indeed very long.

But now everyone is chasing the party members, and you can all fall two miles away. Ruugaidema really wants to curse.

"Hold on, hold on, hold on." Jogaidema yelled crazily at this time: "If we can defeat the party members in front of us, they will all be tax-free next year-"

The scene is basically full of slaves of his family, who need to pay heavy taxes to him every year. If Gaidema will be exempted from tax temptation, he expresses that he must resist.

But on this huge battlefield, his cry was like sand grains in the sea, no one paid any attention to it, and not many people could hear it.

The Song Army cavalry rushed forward like a torrent and cut into his formation again.

Rumbling, crackling, various sounds intermingled at the scene.

The two sides were shooting and slashing at each other, with the roar of swords and arrows, the roar of horses, and various screams and sounds of greetings from the mothers of both sides intertwined in it.

The Tubo people, who had little training and were weak in swords and armor, were completely at a disadvantage.

The unlucky Ruogaidma's eyes were red, and when he looked up, he saw his tribe falling from horses everywhere, screaming everywhere, and the cavalry around him were constantly separated and retreated, completely unable to stop the attack of the party members.

The party members were like no one in their formation, running rampant and not treating them as human beings.

Obviously their strength is more than four times that of the party members, but they are actually at a disadvantage.

If you can stand on a high place and look from a high altitude, at this time Shader's cavalry are twisted into a ball, running around in the middle and east of the Tubo formation, rampaging, and wherever they rush, the Tubo people will evade one after another. He was about to fall off his horse immediately.

Shader was so crazy now that he fought more and more smoothly. At first he was afraid of being surrounded by [-] Tibetan horsemen, but later he didn't care at all and just rushed back and forth in the Tibetan formation.

He no longer regards the Tubo people as human beings, they are not on the same level at all.

No wonder he is so arrogant.

Even before the Xixia army took refuge with the Song people, it was still much stronger than the Tubo people.

Xixia was a unified dynasty at that time, and its army was more professional.

The Tubo people have not reestablished their country for who knows how many years. They are a nomadic organization, and the army is also composed of random herdsmen.

After taking refuge with the Song people, the Xixia cavalry were trained more rigorously and their armor was of higher quality. They were completely different from the same.

While Shadr was ravaging the Tibetan cavalry to his heart's content.

Daru on the left was even worse than him.

On the left wing of the Song army was Meng Ying's tribe.Meng Ying only had [-] Qingqi in hand. At that time, Daru and the other two were overjoyed when they saw Meng Ying's [-] Qingqi coming out. They thought they had picked up a weak persimmon.

But as soon as his soldiers and horses went up, he realized that he was a tough guy.

At this time, most of the cavalry from various countries used seven to eight bows, and a few used more than one stone bow.

Meng Ying's [-] light cavalry includes [-] Xixia people and [-] Song troops. All of them are sergeants with extremely strong arms and good shooting skills. Each person has more than eight bows. Some of them usually use one stone bow, but for durability, For the output, use Badou Bow instead.

The arrows are all heavy arrows specially made by the Song army, and they can shoot far and heavy.

Daru's cavalry had just come within fifty paces.

Swish, swish, the sky full of arrows from Mengying's side shot at the Tubo people first.

At this distance, most Tubo people's bows and arrows can't reach it, and even if they can hit it, they won't have much power.

The Tubo people who rushed at the front suddenly fell down in pieces as if they had been hit hard.

Then it became a performance and exercise for the Song Army.

Meng Ying led them to run and shoot, always keeping between fifty and sixty paces with the Tibetans.

Both sides are light cavalry, and Meng Ying's horse quality is even higher than that of ordinary Tubo herdsmen.

The most effective lethality of the Tubo bow is thirty to forty steps, and its ultimate range is only about fifty steps.

But the horses on the opposite side kept running, and except for the Tibetans in the front row, most of them could not shoot the Song army.

Meng Ying gave full play to his shooting tactics and circled the Song Army's infantry camp from west to east.Shoot back while circling.

Daru's [-] cavalry followed closely, but failed to catch up with the Song army. The Song army kept flying kites at them, and those running in front fell down in pieces from time to time.

Before the first lap was completed, Daru realized something was wrong. If he continued to chase like this, and ran for another half an hour, his cavalry would be shot by the Song army.

"Stop, stop, stop." Daru frantically signaled to his subordinates to pause.

But on the huge battlefield, it was not easy to stop suddenly when nearly [-] cavalry were running. The Tibetan horns sounded over and over again, and then they barely stopped the pursuit.

But as soon as they stopped, Meng Ying in front turned her head sharply, ran over and started circling about fifty steps along them, shooting while circling.

Many Tubo people were furious. Some stood on their horses, and some jumped off their horses and stood on the ground, wanting to shoot at the Song army.

But bows and arrows are not good at all. After all, most of them are homemade sheep-horn bows or ox-horn bows.

Daru's cavalry finally stopped, and was shot several times by the Song army. The Song army was still taking turns to shoot, with the front row shooting from the back to the back, and the back row shooting from the front.

"Too much bullying." Daru was furious and ordered to divide into three groups to surround the Song army from three directions, trying to prevent the Song army from running away.

But the battlefield chosen by the Song Army today was too big. When they saw them rushing up, they turned around and ran away. They still kept their distance and shot while running.

The more than 2 people in Daru were shot at, and they were extremely frustrated. They could not catch up with the Song army, and they could not shoot. They were completely on the receiving end of the attack.

Daru's 1 cavalry were being tortured by Meng Ying, and Gashir's more than [-] cavalry were also enjoying a hellish experience.

Gashir also wanted to pick a soft persimmon to eat, and finally won the hand of Caibage to attack the Song Army's infantry formation.

As he approached the Song Army's infantry formation, two groups of cavalry such as Ruogaidema recruited away the cavalry on the left and right wings of the Song Army's infantry formation.

This made Gashir overjoyed.

Will the Song Army Lord fight?No more cavalry to protect the infantry flanks?
Then their chief general, Cai Bage, led [-] cavalry around to the rear of the Song Army, and the cavalry in the rear of the Song Army also began to leave the infantry camp.

As a result, before Gashir could get close to the Song Army's infantry camp, the area around the Song Army's infantry camp had become empty.

The Song army, which originally had a very large formation, after the three groups of cavalry left, the infantry camp was like a poor girl who had her clothes taken off, waiting for the Tibetan man to play with her.

Gashir shouted excitedly and kept waving the long knife in his hand.

"Kill them all and leave none."

Everyone around them echoed: "Kill them all, leaving no one behind."

Hot blood surged into his heart, and Gashir slowly increased his speed.

After entering three hundred steps, the Song Army's formation still seemed not tight enough, which made him more confident.

Of course it is difficult for cavalry to attack a dense infantry formation, but what about one that is not dense?

Moreover, he has more than 1 riders, while the opponent seems to have only 8000 or [-] people.

Well, there seems to be some carriages in the middle, but it's not a big problem.

Gasher also saw the carriages of the Song army. This was a routine used by the Han people. In history, the Han people liked to take the carriages with them when they entered the grasslands, as a barrier.

Gashir didn't take it seriously at all. As long as the cavalry rushed in, any carriage would be of no use.

Amidst his bursts of sneering, the two sides entered two hundred steps.

At this time, the Song army seemed to be afraid, and their formation was a little panicked.

The Song troops on the left and right were retreating, and then the front row also began to retreat. Some people even turned around and ran away.

"Hahaha, the people of Song Dynasty are panicking." Gashir was overjoyed, brandished his sword and shouted: "Charge."

As soon as his voice fell, a trumpeter beside him raised his horns.

"Woooo" sounded the horn of the Tibetan people's attack.

At this time, the Tubo people were not as good at riding and shooting as the Mongols, so the cavalry's sudden attack was their usual tactic.

With the sound of the attack horn, more than 1 Tibetan cavalry began to speed up, and the rumble of horse hooves struck the ground intensively.
