    More than a thousand Bohai strong crossbowmen were divided into five groups and have been waiting for orders behind the stockade.  These Bohai elites followed the Khitan in many expeditions during the pre-Liao Dynasty, and they were considered to have considerable combat power.  Since Bohai took sides early in the war between the Liao people and the Jurchens, it has been highly valued by the Jurchen high-level officials.  Zong Qian's wife was married to the Yang family in Bohai, and Zong Fu's wife was married to the Li family in Bohai. They were all gentle ways by the Jurchen high-level officials to turn Bohai into the Jurchen's arms.  In the past few years, the Bohai tribe's people have also spent a lot of effort training these tribe's military horses.  The Bohai clan has always been leaning towards the Zongwang East Route Army Group in the Jurchen power struggle.  This time when the East Route Army went south, the Bohai Clan Army naturally selected the most capable warriors to accompany them.  Just look at the more than a thousand crossbowmen who are temporarily assigned to Zongbi's command. They are all strong and muscular, with weathered faces. Some of the archers have gray beards. They look like they are old crossbowmen!  Although these old crossbowmen are no longer as strong as they were when fighting with white soldiers, they are still accurate and ruthless when shooting with their crossbows!  (The Bohai clan was very powerful when the Jurchens first emerged, but they only bet on one family, and the tendency was too obvious. Zongwang died of illness early. After Zongwang died of illness, in the cruel and bloody power struggle within the Jurchens, Bohai  The temporary prosperity of people under the Jurchen rule was like a flash in the pan, and it disappeared long ago (Oscar press). The five strong crossbowmen in Bohai are also followed by auxiliary armies such as Cangtou Bianqie, and the establishment is very large. There are two of the more than a thousand crossbowmen in the auxiliary army.  More than a thousand people.  The role of these auxiliary troops is not to provide Jurchen cavalry with infantry and archery, or to provide ¨N¡ý long¨N¡ý wind ¨N¡ý literature¨N¡ý studies.  Instead, in the battle formation, one person holds a long side card to protect the crossbowman, and the other person pulls the string.  With such a large number of regular and auxiliary troops added together, there is a dense darkness behind the Zhai Zha.  The shouts of the tribal armies in the southeast as they collapsed layer by layer swept over like a wave.  Even the Jurchen cavalry in the direction of Zongbi Dazhu further away were alarmed.  A famous knight was sent over to observe the situation.  However, these Bohai veterans were firmly guarding behind the stockade, standing at the position closest to the water city that blocked the river. Many Bohai veterans were even quietly chewing dry food, waiting for the upcoming fierce battle.  When Yang Zhong arrived in a hurry, several Bohai navy generals immediately came forward to greet him. They surrounded Yang Zhong and asked, "General, have you reported to the noble Puluhun? We can't move lightly. We can only guard the water city that blocks the river."  Fight. How many of those tribal soldiers died, what does it matter?" Yang Zhong's face was ashen, and he just waved his hands: "Nothing can be said by the noble Puluhun, we can only accept the order and order our troops!  " Several Bohai navy generals suddenly shouted: "What kind of reasoning is this? We have left the river water city, who can we rely on to guard here?  Mounting their horses, the brigade mobilized their mounts and headed towards the chaotic front line. Needless to say, they would kill the defeated tribal army brigade and drive them back onto the battlefield.  There were dozens of Jurchen war horses riding towards the Bohai Navy.  This is to monitor them and mobilize them quickly, if there is another delay.  Presumably these Jurchen cavalry would not show any mercy when killing Bohai people!  Several Bohai admirals suddenly became silent, but Yang Zhong gritted his teeth and said: "I will lead three troops forward, and the other two troops will stay here together with the crossbows! I will go into battle in person, and this will always be on the side of the noble Puluhun.  The explanation has been passed, and the future of our Bohai clan is higher than that of the Jurchens. No matter what happens at this time, we just have to fight hard! If we defeat the Southern Dynasty, we, Bohai, can always establish a vassal state and regain the glory of Longquan Mansion!  Yang Zhong was very dissatisfied with the actions of the Jurchen East Route Army after they captured Yanjing and Tanzhou. Why did the Dun troops stationed themselves on the side of Yi County? There was a lot of rain in the summer and the accumulated land only injured the soldiers.  The powerful mobility and huge destructive power of the 100,000-strong Jurchen East Route Army, including at least 20,000 to 30,000 cavalrymen, were completely restricted.  And this battle of Pinghe River to intercept the southern reinforcements was conducted in a mess by Puluhun.  However, the fate of the Bohai clan has been completely tied to the Jurchens. At this time, they can only fight hard no matter what. I hope that this damn Yi County city will be taken over soon, or that Zong Wang and other commanders will wake up early and get rid of this fortified city.  What a bad situation!  Before the dozens of mounted Jurchen supervisors could approach and scold them, loud orders were heard from the Bohai army formation.  The torrent of thousands of people suddenly started to roll. Bohai crossbowmen wearing pointed leather hats carried crossbows on their backs, stepped through the mud, and surged towards the direction of the southerners' boats. The auxiliary troops were carrying side cards.  , carrying bundles of crossbow arrows on his back, used all his strength to keep up.  Seeing the movement of the Bohai Sea, the dozens of Jurchen military horses immediately turned around, took the lead in clearing the way, and galloped towards the most chaotic river bank.  The Song Army's boats had already crossed nearly half the distance of this ten-mile-defended river!  ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~  ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~  The screams were heard from the ground up, but this was not caused by the various arrows thrown by the Song army's ships.??'s.  Instead, hundreds of Jurchen warriors dismounted and formed a line. Everyone held long knives in their hands. They faced the large groups of tribes that were falling towards the north and cut them down like this!  "Hundreds of Jurchen warriors were like killing machines, but when they saw the light of the sword rolling layer by layer, the retreating tribal troops fell down in rows.  In the blink of an eye, the ground was smeared all over the ground, and hundreds of defeated troops were left with their heads missing!  The Jurchen warriors did not roar or shout, they just let go and killed them. They just used the simplest way to tell these northern tribes soldiers and horses that under the banner of the Jurchen army, what would be the consequences of fighting desperately and retreating without following orders!  The tribes that came from behind were defeated, and when they saw this scene, they all stopped in their tracks.  However, the Jurchen warriors were not satisfied with the end of their retreat.  There was another horn sound in the team, and these thick and fierce Jurchen heavily armored men moved forward again and pressed forward!  The tribal army chiefs could only shout loudly, and led their frightened subordinates back to the front again.  The military force originally deployed on the south bank was relatively small, and there were no Jurchen cavalry to guard the formation. At this time, it was already disintegrated beyond control.  And on the North Shore.  At least two to three thousand tribal troops were forced back by the Jurchen warriors.  The lines are denser.  Many people had already thrown away their bows and arrows, and the hedgehogs gathered in a short section of the river bank, disturbing and pushing each other, making it impossible to form effective command.  Even though some people are still trying hard to shoot with their bows, they are no longer able to form a dense rain of arrows, and their accuracy is completely lost. Some archers just shoot out the arrows in their bags as quickly as possible.  This performance was even more disgraceful than before.  The Song army boats had already rushed over, and one after another passed by the dense crowd, still being swept by arrows and arrows. The screams and wails in the dense crowd were ten times louder than before.  !  These tribal soldiers and horses did not dare to retreat. They could only rush left and right, trying to spread out slightly, which only exacerbated the chaos.  For a while, no one knew how many people were pushed into the water.  These northern tribesmen were wearing heavy leather robes.  Once you fall into the water, you have no ability to struggle at all. The strong water rolls up, and there are leather hats flowing down the river!  Li Jun stood firmly on the bow of the boat, glanced briefly at the shabby Tatar army and horses on the north bank, and snorted contemptuously: "What kind of bird war is this?" His boat was always the one at the front.  At this time, the rowers were sweating profusely, and their heads were steaming with white steam.  The broadside shooters were also busy, just constantly spraying death on the Tartars.  There were only about twenty sergeants in soft suits and water tanks who were ready to fight, sitting in the hull of the ship to recharge their batteries.  The water city that blocks the river is only three or four miles away.  Standing on the bow of the ship, through the cooked cowhide cover, you can already see a row of chest-high wooden piles on the water city made of wooden rafts. Behind the wooden piles, you can see the defenders running around in a panic, shouting unknown to them.  What are you wearing?  The Tartars, who were preparing to fight against the rafts and boats parked on the river bank near the water city, did not move their oars for a long time, watching blankly as the Song army's boats rushed closer and closer.  ??After the Jiahe Walled Gate stretching on both sides, you can see countless Tartar flags, which represents the unknown number of Tartar troops and horses behind the Walled Gate.  Although he led such a small fleet, Li Jun was not afraid at all.  With the Tartars' ability in water warfare, there might be some hope of stopping us and reincarnating ourselves.  Even such a seemingly solid river dam can never stop us!  And after rushing through the water city of the river, within three miles of the waterway, we have already arrived at the water pass of Yixian City, where we can meet the defenders!  As the crossbow string sounded, Li Jun looked back and shouted: "Add another oar! You guys, follow me to the water city! I always rush in front of you guys! If you are lucky, there is one  Count me as one, I¡¯ll treat you to a drink in Yixian City!¡± Whether it was the archers, rowers, or the men who were just closing their eyes and concentrating in preparation for the battle, they all laughed: ¡°Commander Li, don¡¯t talk, Yixian City is a battlefield!  , Where can I find bird wine? Even if there are only three or two mouths, it is not enough for one person to drink. If you are destined to go back in the future, please ask your wife to pour wine for us! " Li Jun has already married, and he is not amazing.  My wife is also the daughter of fishermen, but she was born white and tender.  Li Jun followed the Tianwu Army to defend Hebei. His wife, carrying a baggage, was escorted by his younger brother for a visit before coming to the army.  At that time, many soldiers were alerted and came to look around. Even the commander-in-chief Yuhou and other superior officials came and went for an excuse. After turning around and leaving, they all scolded Li Jun for being so lucky.  When the brothers mentioned their daughter-in-law, Li Jun couldn't help but feel soft in his heart.  But the screams and wails of the surrounding Tartars made Li Jun's expression harden again.  Even if it is for the sake of my wife, I must fight to the death to stop these Tatars!  ¡°Forward!¡±Following Li Jun's command, the oarsman braced his feet, and with every pull, his whole body almost fell over the board of the boat.  The speed of the boat, which was already not too slow when going upstream, has sped up again!  ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~  ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~  ~~~~~ To the west of the chaotic array of tribal troops who had no idea how to fight on the river, hundreds of Bohai crossbowmen who hurriedly arrived at this time finally spread out along the river bank.  The panting Cang Tou smashed the side cards that were almost a person tall into the mud, while the other person was half-kneeling behind the crossbowman, ready to take over the empty crossbow and cock it at any time.  And those Bohai crossbowmen stood calmly beside the sign, took off the crossbow machine on their backs, stepped on the stirrups, and then stuck the arrows into the chute.  A crossbowman who looked to be the oldest first raised his crossbow and fired an arrow into the river, and then loudly shouted: "Look at the mountain and rise two!" Hundreds of crossbowmen immediately raised their crossbows neatly and put the crossbows on their bodies.  The mountain pushes up two squares.  Yang Zhong also stood behind the formation, staring in the direction of the river.  The water was flowing, and on the east bank of the river, there was a large group of tribal soldiers and horses gathered together, and the screams and wails could be heard from the ground to the sky.  The Jurchen warriors behind the formation were unable to do anything but kill those who couldn't stand it and wanted to retreat.  The Song army fleet, lined up in a line, was like a furious dragon galloping on the Yi River, rushing against the current. The white waves kept smashing against the bow of the ship. It seemed that nothing could stop this fleet.  Forward!  Among the sights of hundreds of crossbows, the silhouette of a Song military boat finally appeared. The cooked cowhide hanging on both sides of the towed boat looked like a pair of huge wings spread out, and they were densely packed with arrows.  Yang Zhong stared at these Song people's boats coldly.  The Bohai tribe was destroyed by the Liao people for a long time, but the people of the Bohai tribe have never forgotten the glory of their dominance in Liaodong.  But now that they are attached to the Jurchens, the Bohai clan has seen hope of rising again!  No matter with their rise, how much blood will be shed and how much destruction and killing will be accompanied by the Southern Dynasty that they once looked up to and watched!  Yang Zhong suddenly roared: "Let go!"
