The Song cavalry at the front row charged down in perfect unison, each holding a standard spear about 3 meters long.

The hillside was trembling.

The sound of iron hooves was like countless war drums pounding their drumheads, unleashing a deafening force.

The last rays of the setting sun lingered on the horizon, casting a blood-red glow on the Song army's armor and stretching out the shadows of the entire steel torrent.

The rays of the setting sun could no longer be seen on the hillside.

From high above, as the sun sets, the line where light and shadow meet moves across the land.

The sky, which had been a blend of deep red and blue, turned into a deep blue, and the cold moon hanging in the sky seemed like an indifferent eye looking down.

The torrent of the Song army surged from the sunlight into the shadows.

It seemed capable of shattering Mount Tai.

Such power was so overwhelming that even the Jin army lying in ambush in the distance was terrified just by hearing about it.

Even Wanyan Zonggan was shocked. What would it be like to face such a Song army head-on?

As the Song army's battle line moved down to the halfway point of the hillside, the front-line warhorses suddenly buckled downwards with their front legs, letting out a mournful neigh.

The warhorse tumbled forward and fell into a five-foot-deep, covered pit.

The cavalryman on top was thrown off his horse and fell into the pit in front of him.

In that instant, they could even clearly hear the sound of their bones cracking inside their bodies. The dark blue sky flashed across their vision, followed by red.

The image in my mind finally settled on the faces of my loved ones before I enlisted.

The next moment, the warhorses and cavalry behind also fell down, landing on top of the cavalrymen who had fallen in front.

The armor pieces collided with each other, and were deformed by the enormous impact force.

Human flesh and blood become extremely fragile under the impact of armor.

It pierces into flesh and blood, rubs against bone, and makes a teeth-grinding sound.

The mournful screams replaced the triumphant shouts of the charge.

The sounds of clashing armor and the mournful neighing of warhorses mingled together, and blood bloomed like flowers among the fallen crowd ahead.

Human flesh and blood are squeezed and twisted.

Looking down from above, it appears as if there is a thick, invisible, and solid wall there.

When the Song army's valiant cavalry encountered that thick "wall," they advanced uncontrollably for more than twenty meters.

Countless brave men fell there, tumbled off their horses, were crushed by their comrades behind them, or were run over and killed by the heavy warhorses.

This morning, each of them was full of confidence.

Full of passion and high aspirations, they vowed to repay the Emperor's trust in them with their lives.

But at this moment, they died.

Seeing this scene, blood flowed from Chen Gou's eyes, and the hatred in his heart was as vast as the waters of the four seas!

Yao Xiong was so angry that he almost vomited blood.

Liu Bingyu stood frozen in place, as if struck by lightning.

Jando kept yelling, "Retreat! Retreat!"

But his voice was like a drop in the ocean.

Except for the position where the commander-in-chief is standing, you can clearly see below.

The Song soldiers charging at the rear had no idea what was happening ahead. When they reached the top of the hill and saw the horrific scene below, their minds went blank.

The warhorses are out of control, the herd is out of control.

Everyone could see hell below, but the momentum was unstoppable.

What kind of despair is this?

If one dies charging into battle and killing the enemy, then one's death is heroic and worthy of the cause.

But now he has been trapped and died, without even seeing the enemy.

They were not willing to die like this!

Hatred filled the air!

The Song soldiers in the middle were caught between the front and the rear, watching helplessly as they charged toward pointless death, falling to the ground and being crushed by men and horses.

At this moment, human life becomes cheaper than the grass on the roadside.

The Song army at the rear finally began to change formation, separating from both sides like they had grown a pair of wings and began to stretch to the left and right.

But those that came before were almost beyond saving.

Countless people rushed forward, falling off their warhorses and crashing into the human pit. Their already lifeless bodies rolled down the hillside, landing in front of the Jin army's camp.

Some of their bodies were completely deformed, some had even become a pile of flesh and blood, and some had their eyes wide open, dying with their eyes still open.

Some were on their last breath, with only one finger able to move, trembling, their eyes filled with resentment!

Before long, the area ahead was littered with corpses.

Countless people are groaning in pain and crying out in despair.

Of the 30,000 Song soldiers, only 3,000 survived.

Chen Gou bit his gums until they bled, and roared in a hoarse voice, "Retreat! Retreat! Retreat!"

The surviving Song soldiers began to reorganize their ranks, but the heavy losses shook their morale.

"Trying to run? Not so easy!"

Suddenly, Wanyan Zonggan led his troops out from both sides.

The Jin army's morale soared, like a pair of outstretched wings, rapidly extending to both sides before quickly merging again, revealing its sharp fangs, and charging towards the last Song cavalrymen above.

The war drums of the Jin army sounded, dense as a summer downpour along the banks of the Xiao River.

The Jin army's battle cries shook the heavens and the earth. Black shadows moved across the wide plain like a raging flood, and the sound of their iron hooves kicked up dust.

Liu Bingyu cried out in panic, "Zhan Du! Quickly lead five hundred men to block the Jin invaders from the left flank! Chen Gou, lead five hundred men to block the Jin invaders from the right flank! Yao Shuai and I will lead two thousand men to break through!"
