But in fact, the establishment of the Jin Dynasty originated from the resistance to the cruel rule of the Liao Dynasty. Jin Taizu Akuta started with thousands of cavalry, defeated the million-strong army of Liao and established Daikin Empire.
In history, the cavalry units of the Jin Dynasty were famous all over the world, so how powerful were their cavalry? Today we will talk about the heavy cavalry units founded by the Jin Dynasty.
In the legends and records of later generations, there have always been titles such as "Tiefutu" and "Kidnapping Horse", which refer to heavy cavalry units. Originally, heavy cavalry appeared in the Northern and Southern Dynasties, but the Jin Dynasty took this concept to the extreme.
The so-called "iron tower" is the heavy cavalry, and the "turning horse" is the heavy cavalry charge phalanx connecting the heavy cavalry.
In the northern plain of China, the heavy cavalry charge is irresistible to any other arms and is invincible.
The Jin Dynasty originated in Baishan Blackwater, where it was bitter and cold all the year round, which exercised the characteristics of Jurchen's hard work. At the same time, they have lived a life of fishing and hunting for a long time, and have exercised the extraordinary shooting skills of Jurchen, so they have strong combat effectiveness.
In Akuta, Jin Taizu, the ministries of Jurchen were unified, and a military regime was initially established. Organized Jurchen began a legendary expansion experience.
Jurchen defeated 20,000 people, the main force of Liao State, with 3,700 A soldiers.
Later, it was out of control, and the Liao army was defeated repeatedly in previous battles. In the decisive battle, 700,000 Liao troops were defeated by 20,000 people, which led to the shaking of the foundation of Liao's rule. Jurchen broke through the Great Wall to conquer Beijing today, and the Liao country perished.
Soon, the Jin people attacked the capital of the Northern Song Dynasty in the south, captured the emperor Qin Hui and a large number of aristocratic wives, and the Northern Song Dynasty perished.
From A.D./KOLOC-0//KOLOC-0//KOLOC-0/4 A.D. to A.D./KOLOC-0/0/27 A.D., the Jin Army annihilated the Northern Song Dynasty. It was only more than ten years before and after, and the Jurchen unified northern China with only 65,438+million households and established a huge empire. What they rely on.
According to the records of the war in the Song Dynasty, the elite troops of the State of Jin, Tiefu Tuguamai, were all Jurchen natives. These people are all wearing heavy armor and armed to the teeth. During the war, they tied up their horses and blocked the rear with deer and horses every time they advanced, which meant that there was no retreat.
Today's heavy cavalry are superior in physical strength, and often charge all day long, and the formation does not come apart. With strong physical strength and discipline, it was a veritable elite force at that time.
The Jin people defeated the decadent Liao country and perished the deteriorating Northern Song Dynasty. They thought they were invincible in the world, but they didn't expect the people of the Central Plains to be devastated, which inspired an unprecedented desire for survival and will to fight.
Under the leadership of famous soldiers such as Yue Fei, Liu Qi and Wu Jun, the soldiers and civilians in the Song Dynasty rose up and rebelled, and defeated Xu Jin's founding heavy cavalry many times in the plain area, almost completely annihilated. 8 8 8 Jin Jun even issued a sigh that "it is difficult to shake the mountain but it is easy for the Yue family to shake the army".
