Chapter 343 Despair
The torrent of cavalry began to surge. The last time a huge cavalry regiment of this size collided was when the Marquis of Jingnan and the Marquis of Zhenbei led his army to launch the Jin Company to destroy the two families of Helian and Wenren. .
Now, the grand scene of thundering iron hooves is once again staged in the land of Sanjin.
Actually, Marquis Jingnan did not know what happened behind the barbarians.
He sent Zheng Fan's troops to the rear. His original intention was that Zheng Fan could play a role in isolating Yupan City from the Chu State and acting as a diversion. As for what Zheng Fan could do Regarding the situation, what kind of results can be achieved, and what kind of impact it will have on the entire war situation, Jingnan Marquis has an attitude of expectation, but he will not put all his real hope in the basket called Zheng Fan.
As a disciple whom he personally guided and cultivated, Marquis Jingnan believed in Zheng Fan's ability to lead troops, and Zheng Fan rarely let him down.
But matters on the frontal battlefield must still be resolved on the frontal battlefield.
No matter how complex or advanced the trick is, it is impossible to make the savages wait for the kill. In the end, it still has to be implemented in a real fighting battle formation.
No matter how many layouts, no matter how good the preparation,
its effect,
It's just to make the wind direction of your final decisive battle slightly cater to your own side.
The constant switching of defenses by various troops in the past few days, apart from the purpose of training various troops, is actually a deception.
The armor and flags of the Jingnan Army and the Northern Army were exchanged with the local army, the imperial army, and the Chengguo army. The key to this was actually one thing, and that was "confidentiality."
Why during this period, whether they were officials of the original state or captains of the army, were beheaded directly for the slightest mistake? The military law is so strict that no one dares to take a step beyond the bounds.
In the eyes of the outside world, this was Jingnanhou’s attempt to establish his authority.
But in fact, these are just external reactions caused by isolating news.
To put it mildly, the elimination of spies and the need for confidentiality mean that one would rather kill a thousand by mistake than let one go.
Perhaps, in the entire Yan Dynasty, only the Marquis of Jingnan can control this method of warfare and carry out this plan with his absolute control over all armies.
The original plan was to use a "transfer and graft" approach to gain a chance for our true elite to face off against the main force of the savages.
If General Zheng were here right now, he would definitely applaud Jingnan Hou’s plan and shout “6666”;
Knowing that you, the Savage King, like to play "Tian Ji Horse Racing", I will decisively change the position of the horse first and give you a reverse "Tian Ji Horse Racing".
Of course, the original arrangement was not so radical. No matter what, it needed further preparation, and then slowly "led the king into the urn" to the savages.
But in the process of dispatching troops by himself and the barbarians to respond, Jingnanhou was keenly aware that there seemed to be something wrong with the barbarians' rear.
The Savage King once lamented,
It would be better not to know about Snow Customs,
Because as long as you know it, then no matter how you conceal it, the subsequent deployment of troops and horses will always have a deliberate flavor.
Jingnan Hou didn’t know that Xuehaiguan had fallen into the hands of Shengle’s army and that the situation of defending the city was still good.
He even guessed whether one of the big tribes in the snowfield was at this time The rebellion made the Savage King start to worry about the rear;
But the real reason was not important. He only needed to understand that in addition to the "lack of food" on the Savage side, there was another problem. Very eager.
Urgent people are anxious,
Then on my side, I might as well help others directly.
Wearing Jingnan Army Zhenbei Army armor and carrying their flags, other soldiers and horses crossed the river overnight, and all the siege equipment was pushed over. In fact, they were sure that the Savage King would not take the initiative to come to Yupan City to help. The Chu army’s psychology of rescuing the siege.
Battle formation strategy,
To put it bluntly,
is also a psychological battle between the coaches of both sides.
According to the opponent's coach's style, make a prediction about his behavior, and then make arrangements based on the prediction.
This is like a layer cake. He thinks you are on the third layer, but in fact you are looking at him from the fifth layer.
Of course, calling it a "gamble" is not actually accurate.
Because in addition to the direct lineage under his command, half of the barbarian kings are soldiers and horses from other tribes;
They are not so much the army of a country, but more like a group of bandit alliances.
Since we are here to grab things, and we have already grabbed a lot of things and gone back, just like after a struggle, people always need to slow down, enjoy life, and reflect on the value of their struggle.
This kind of group, if you want them to have enough to eat and drink, then go back to work hard, they can't do it, and in many cases it is not the "king" who controls the will of the group, but the will of the group. The will needs a "king" to manifest on their behalf.
The difference in political system and national nature can reflect great differences at this time. If there is benefit, go ahead, if there is no benefit, leave.
The Savage King and the leaders may say that it is hard to leave their homeland every day, but in fact they are mentally prepared to run back if the situation turns bad.
This is in sharp contrast to the mental state of the Eastern Expedition army, which was holding back its anger to avenge Paoze who died in the last battle of Wangjiang and avenge the Yan army.
Why did the Marquis of Jingnan and the Marquis of Zhenbei stand behind Emperor Yan and force their way into the family? It was to put an end to this phenomenon in the Yan Kingdom and allow the emperor's will to inspire the will of the entire country.
As the saying goes, no amount of planning can catch up with a change. A divine assist from General Zheng from Xuehaiguan in the east is like a giant wave set off by a butterfly.
Let Wangjiang's arrangement with Marquis Jingnan was so "feeding" that he didn't feel too comfortable.
It’s still the same brave man,
It’s still the same gilded armor,
It’s still the frost-cold kunsian knife,
It’s still the man charging at the front of the army,
Behind him are the two most elite and skilled cavalrymen in the entire Dayan. combination.
Charge head-on,
Fight in an upright manner,
For Yan Jun,
it is the advantage!
The Yan people have this confidence, and the Yan cavalry has this belief!
General Zheng has always been envious of Jingnan Hou's behavior of charging ahead and attracting attention behind him.
This scene should be a dream that most men have had when they were young.
However, not every coach is Tian Wujing. Tian Wujing dares to do this because he is a powerful warrior who can defeat the Sword Master in a duel with his own strength.
If all the coaches were to follow Tian Wujing's example, and if the coach was directly killed in a charge and collision, it would be a different story.
At this time,
more than 80,000 cavalry, led by Jingnan Hou, began to gallop towards the east.
Everyone’s horse speed is maintained at the same frequency. Rather than rushing to the battlefield, it is better to say that they are warming up.
A powerful army is one that is full of enthusiasm before the war, while a terrifying army is one that is extremely calm before the war, just like the army behind Tian Wujing.
After the silhouette of the barbarian army in front became clearer and clearer,
Jingnan Hou’s sword began to fall.
Kun Che waved to the north,
The ten thousand cavalry on the far left broke away from the main army and began to speed up and make a detour to the north.
Kun Tzu waved to the south,
A group of ten thousand cavalry on the far right also broke away from the main army and accelerated to the south to make a detour.
Every time the gun fell,
a group of ten thousand knights broke away from the main army and began to enter their main attack direction.
When Zheng Fan followed Li Fusheng to the south of Qianguo and encountered an army of Qianguo, Li Fusheng picked up the horse and entered the trapped camp to play, without paying any attention to the command of the troops.
Because he leads the Zhenbei Army, a powerful army that can chase barbarians in the desert. Every guerrilla general and general under the command of the general army knows what they should do after the war begins. What is the matter and where should it be located.
The most important thing is that they are not afraid of death. Not everyone is happy to die, but they know one truth. On the battlefield, sometimes, you really need to take the initiative to sacrifice yourself. This is for the overall situation!
In fact, one of the most important reasons for the decline of the desert barbarians was that during the Western Expedition of the Barbarian King, the Golden Family and its direct lineage were almost destroyed, which caused the desert barbarians to fall into a leaderless state.
It is not that the barbarians are no longer good at fighting, and it is not that archery, horse riding, and archery have deteriorated, otherwise General Zheng would not be so fond of absorbing barbarians for his own use.
Their essence is that they have lost a cohesive wholeness. Sometimes even if they gather an alliance, they still have their own thoughts, just like the savages who are just rising now.
This is the reason why the Zhenbei Marquis Mansion has been able to suppress the barbarians for hundreds of years. All the Zhenbei Marquises have been absolute rulers in Beifeng County. Even the Yan Emperors of the past dynasties have found it difficult to interfere with them, and even had to do so every time. Daidu sent princes to grow and build relationships with the next generation of Zhenbei Hou.
For this reason, the 300,000 Zhenbei Army has always been a whole. Even if it is divided into six towns, it still understands that it is a military group and a vassal town.
Of course, there are disadvantages to doing this. For example, when Emperor Yan and the Marquis of Zhenbei were acting, the Zhenbei Army really thought about directly breaking into Yanjing and making their own Marquis the throne.
The Chinese army is constantly being separated. The more than 80,000 cavalry are divided into nine groups of people as they accelerate.
Who is the Chinese Army?
There is no need to care;
Who is the main attacker?
There is no need to distinguish, each road is the main force and the main attack.
Back then, when General Zheng was still a military novice, the concept of cavalry warfare was still based on the war scenes in movies and TV series. The cavalry on both sides were laid out, and then the camera cut to a long shot and began to hedge.
Later, General Zheng realized that it was just to make the war scenes look good. In fact, no cavalry general with a normal mind would command the cavalry in this way.
Moreover, the battlefield area is so large. If everyone rushes forward in a swarm, it is easy to have a funny scene where the front is blocked and fighting, and there is a large group of people behind who cannot move forward and can only watch the show from behind.
After dividing the cavalry under his command into nine lines and marching out together, it is equivalent to releasing nine extremely sharp steel knives. The purpose is to complete the multi-way cutting and disintegration of the main force of the savages in front.
The art of war
needs generals and soldiers to complete it together.
Excellent generals cooperate with the most elite knights to form a truly terrifying combat power!
Here,
one is the recognized military god of Dayan,
the other is the two most elite cavalry of Dayan,
at this time, they,
>
The energy and spirit have been raised to the peak,
Facing the savage in front,
showed his fangs!
Li Fusheng shouted:
"The ambition to trap the enemy!"
The ten thousand cavalry behind him shouted in unison:
"Death but no life!"
......
The barbarian army crossed the river very smoothly,
Next,
the Yan army and Cheng The reaction of the Chinese army was also within the prediction of the Savage King.
However, this kind of smoothness made the Savage King feel a little unsure, because it was really too smooth.
Although he was making a dangerous move,
but he instinctively felt that
the Nanhou from Yan should not be so unhelpful, the elite of Yan country As many as possible cross the river, and the rear should be prepared no matter what.
Fortunately,
When the rangers reported a large-scale Yan cavalry attack ahead,
the Savage King breathed a sigh of relief.
Is this decent? It’s impossible for Nanhou to do nothing these days. He has to clean up his family and show off to outsiders.
Just like this time, when the Yan army and the Cheng army faced their own troops crossing the river, their response agility was indeed much better than that of the Yan army on the banks of the Wangjiang River last time. few.
But,
That's it.
“Warriors of the Holy Tribe, wave your sabers and roar, let them see who is the real king of this land!”
The Savage King tried his best. The ground was boosting morale. In fact, with so many soldiers and horses crossing the river together, he himself was like a drop of water in the ocean. It was basically impossible to coordinate the overall situation, but he just wanted to He just wanted to instill a little murderous aura into the warriors around him.
He believed that his generals and the tribal leaders knew very well that this was a real military adventure. From the moment they crossed the river, in addition to moving forward and forward, After defeating the Yan people's military stronghold, there was no other way out.
The Savage King is not worried that these leaders and generals will conserve their strength at this time. They may be a little satisfied, they may be a little slack, and some can’t wait to return to their tents in the snow field to enjoy plundering. The results were achieved.
But they are by no means fools. They know what they should do hard at this time.
Military morale,
morale,
are no problem.
The only flaw is that he gave the order too hastily. In order to bind the leaders to send troops with him, he almost used coercion and urging to force them to have no extra time to think. Accompany yourself on this military adventure.
The excessive speed of crossing the river caused a lot of chaos. After the savage warriors gathered together after crossing the river in three ways, many of the leaders originally had three thousand warriors under their command, but they only gathered less than two thousand. Each tribe There was a certain amount of confusion.
It is tantamount to a disorder in the organization;
But in the eyes of the Savage King, this is just a small flaw. He actually wanted to gather and sort out the troops and horses a little after crossing the river. , but the Yan people quickly gathered several troops and rushed over, which meant that they did not give him a chance to calmly recover.
But,
What does that mean?
Tear them apart,
defeat them,
kill them,
all the savage warriors are moving forward and charging. Under this momentum, the savage king I believe that neither Chengguo's army nor Yanguo's local army nor the Forbidden Army can withstand the roar of the iron hooves of these more than 100,000 savages!
Sang Hu has always been by the king's side. The troops he leads are the direct lineage of the direct lineage. They are also the ones with the strongest equipment and combat effectiveness among the entire savage army, and they are also the most loyal to the savage king. branch.
However, when the front ranger brought back the latest news, the originally calm look on Sang Hu's face suddenly changed.
He immediately galloped towards the king's flag where the Savage King was,
shouted:
"King, the Yan people in front are divided into nine groups!"
Hearing this, the Savage King suddenly bit his lip with his teeth, and blood flowed from his lip in an instant.
In the beginning, in order to learn the Yan people's fighting methods, the Savage King took two of his most loyal men and went to Beifeng County to serve as auxiliary soldiers for many years.
No one would doubt the Savage King's wise command when he returned to the snowy plains to consolidate his own strength and then fought against the Situ family.
Even, including the last battle at Wangjiang, it was only under the command and arrangement of the Savage King that such great results were achieved.
So, the Savage King knows how to fight. After hearing the news reported by Sang Hu, he immediately realized that something was wrong.
The reason why the rabble is called the rabble is because they only pay attention to temporary blood and courage in fighting, which is the same as fighting with the gangsters on the street.
In the past, when the Qian Kingdom's frontier army was severely underpaid, a general with a strength of 3,000 people would first eat the free wages of 1,000 people, only focus on raising 500 servants, and then raise 1,500 civilian servants, which is not like the civilian servants. Soldiers are not like auxiliary soldiers.
When there is a real battle, the servants rush to the front, and the people behind follow them. When fighting with the wind, there is nothing to see. Once the wind comes down, the army is often defeated.
At the beginning, Li Bao and Li Fusheng were able to attack the Shangjing City directly because of this common problem among the Qianguo army. First charge and knock off your most elite part, and then the following people can collect people all over the mountains and plains. .
Although it is somewhat inappropriate to insist on calling the Chengguo army, the Yanguo local army and the Forbidden Army a mob, these mixed soldiers and horses hurriedly faced their sudden appearance of more than 100,000 cavalry. Under such circumstances, it was already remarkable that they dared to gather together in an attempt to resist, but they actually dared to gather their troops and then spread them out in multiple directions...
Two possibilities,
One is that the opposing coach is an idiot;
Of course, although the Savage King does not know whether Jingnanhou is in Jiangdong or Jiangxi now,
but he will not naively think that the Yan people who are left behind will be the leader. Would be an idiot.
Then there is only one other possibility left,
that is, they have the confidence to do it, the confidence to do it, and the courage to do it!
This reminded the Savage King of how he saw the Zhenbei Army fighting against the barbarians when he was in Beifeng County.
"Woooooooooooo!!!!!!!!!"
"Woooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo [""" The noises came one after another, because the wild knights had seen the Yan army charging towards them in the distance. They were very excited and couldn't wait to defeat them.
The Savage King felt very heavy in his heart, and the knife in his hand dropped involuntarily. He thought of a possibility, a very ridiculous possibility.
However, at this time, no matter whether this possibility was true or not, no matter which Yan army appeared in front of him, it was already at this time, and he could no longer order the entire army to stop charging or retreat.
To give such an order is to wait for the other party to attack you. Not far behind is Wangjiang!
There is no retreat, only forward!
Even if that may be true, in a head-on fight, it is still unclear who will win and who will lose, right?
A few moments,
The Savage King roared:
"The stars protect us, kill!"
This battle,
If I win,
I will Will become a true believer in the stars.
...
Under the walls of Yupan City, the three Chu armies have been arrayed for a while, but the Yan army on the periphery only responded calmly. There were three groups of troops outside the three city gates.
But,
This is the weirdest place.
On the city tower, with the passage of time, Qu Tiannan is no longer as high-spirited as before. As the representative of the Qu family in the Chu Kingdom, he has been entrusted with the important task of leading the army here. He is by no means a wasteland. A person with a false reputation.
It’s okay if the Yan people didn’t attack,
but when the barbarian army upstream had already crossed to Jiangxi, the Zhenbei Army and Jingnan Army here were just stuck here, doing nothing and nowhere to be seen. They had a hint of soldiers and horses wanting to go back for reinforcements;
Everyone stared at each other with big eyes and small eyes, and they were extremely quiet.
The sword maker was still standing next to Qu Tiannan. He looked at the military formations of both sides below the tower for a while, and then looked at Qu Tiannan's expression.
A long time,
Qu Tiannan smiled,
reached out and patted the battlements,
said with emotion:
“What a good Jingnan Marquis, what a good Tian Wujing!”
"Zhu Guo, is there something wrong?" the sword maker asked.
"Sir, have you noticed it too?"
The sword maker shook his head and said: "No, but I often play chess. When I lose, I have to compliment my opponent first, so that I can lose. Not so ugly.”
“Sir, this is being sarcastic. Me?”
“Don’t dare, don’t dare.”
“Sir, you are right, but this situation is not set up for me, but for the savages. Look, sir. The Zhenbei Army and the Jingnan Army below are the elites of the Yan Dynasty.
When they attacked the city yesterday, I was surprised. The Marquis of Nan was really willing to let these elite cavalry dismount and attack the city.
Now,
I finally understand.
Let them dismount and attack the city. Even if there is some damage, the Yan people are not good at attacking the city anyway. Everyone knows that whatever the fight is, it's natural.
It is precisely because of this that their true identities cannot be seen. ”
"I see, thank you Zhuguo for clarifying my doubts. I understand, just like a sword hidden in a gorgeous scabbard."
The sword hidden in a gorgeous scabbard may be a famous sword, or it may be a famous sword. It was a rusty, chipped sword.
“So, even though the Yan army below knew that the barbarian army had crossed the river from the upper reaches, they still chose to stand still because they knew exactly who was waiting for the barbarians on the other side of the river.”
"So, the savages are destined to lose?"
"Not necessarily, fighting in battle formations, in the end, depends on the momentum, head-on collision and fighting, the savages have no chance of winning. ”
The sword maker smiled and said:
"If they can win in a head-on fight, why do they have to stand up to each other for so long? Why do they need our great soldiers and horses of Chu to guard this jade plate for them? City? "
Isn't it just because of the frontal attack that it is very likely that the Yan people cannot defeat the cavalry?
Qu Tiannan was speechless for a moment.
The sword maker turned around and walked down the city wall,
"Where are you going, sir?"
"Go find His Highness the Eighth Prince, Zhu Guo, please take care."
"Sir, this is what you plan to do... ..."
"Yes, get away"
The sword maker answered simply and said at the same time:
"Please Zhu Guo stick to Yupan City and wait for me to cut off the queen."
It was obviously very shameless and unjust words. The swordsman said it was reasonable.
Because he understands,
If the main force of the barbarians on the other side of the river is defeated,
Then the Yan army can march straight in, and in an instant, they can trap this Yupan City into an isolated city.
Without the constraints of the savages on the periphery, the Yan people did not even have to attack the city, they could just lay siege to it.
Even if,
We will be surrounded until spring begins,
We will be surrounded until the river thaws,
When the time comes,
even if the Dachu navy comes up, it will not help.
And at this time, I cannot directly choose to abandon the city and retreat,
because the Yan troops outside the city, even if they are not as elite as the Jingnan Army and the Northern Army, are still Yan troops. A team composed of the country's cavalry and the knights of the Three Jin Dynasties.
Our Qingluan Army is mainly infantry,
Do you want to retreat safely in front of so many cavalry?
This is real dreaming.
Now,
the only hope is,
that of the barbarians. Not to mention defeating the Yan people, at least they have to secure a draw. Only in this way, Yupan City So as not to fall into the most dangerous and embarrassing situation.
"These beasts, don't be so unbeaten."
......
At this moment,
looking at the west bank of the river, the Yan army and the main force of the barbarians have already collided. Together.
First, two groups of Yan troops ran directly into the wave of the barbarian army. With a decisive attitude and regardless of casualties, they forcibly blocked the momentum of the entire barbarian army.
Immediately, other groups of Yan troops began to cut into the savages.
The battlefield situation was cut to pieces in an instant, and the chaotic organization of the savages completely collapsed due to the penetration of these nine soldiers and horses.
If at the beginning, the savage warriors still had a curious and contemptuous attitude toward the Yan army that came to attack them, then gradually, more and more savages began to discover that what they wanted The Yan people we are facing have a problem!
In the cold weapon age, weapons and equipment are important, but the most important thing is actually people.
Their neatness and orderliness, their division of labor and coordination, and their piercing and piercing made the savages facing them somewhat helpless.
During the fight, the savage found that his bravery was not enough to withstand someone's saber hitting your vital point directly;
your fearlessness was not enough to stop someone from piercing your neck with an arrow from his horse.
More than morale?
Who is afraid of whom?
As far as the Zhenbei Army is concerned, the last disastrous defeat in the Battle of Wangjiang caused the greatest damage to the Left Route Army, but the Zhenbei Army also lost a general, and even more soldiers under Yupan City Thousands of people died.
This revenge must be avenged.
As far as the Jingnan Army is concerned, our Marquis is leading everyone to charge at this time. We can't embarrass our Marquis. No matter what, our performance must not be worse than that of the Zhenbei Army.
For the generals and leaders of the savages, when the two armies just collided, they didn't feel anything. No matter what, if you want to win, you have to go through a fight. He Yan After all, people are not made of clay.
But after the fighting had been deadlocked for a while, these generals were also confused.
The savages have completely fought on their own. The generals and leaders can only command a few hundred people around them, but you can see that in all directions, the Yan people's cavalry are shuttling.
The distance a person can see on a battlefield in the plains is actually only that wide. After all, there is no one in this world who can truly open up God's perspective.
They didn't know what the overall situation was. They just felt that there were only so many Yan people around them.
Everyone on the front, back, left and right are Yan people.
After this chaotic scene continued, the savages began to continuously deviate from their original directions, because losing the command system was equivalent to losing the sense of direction.
Just like the originally clenched fist, the five fingers began to slowly stretch out.
The Yan army's sharp cuts were simply unstoppable to the barbarians. After all, this was not a collision involving thousands of cavalry. The two sides combined had invested more than 200,000 troops. Even in a few places, the barbarian generals led their men to fight bravely. The effect is also very good, but overall, it cannot prevent its collapse at all.
Different from the chaos of the savages, after completing the first round of cutting and penetration, Yan Jun quickly changed direction, selected the next point, and continued to penetrate.
This was supposed to be the method used by the cavalry against the infantry phalanx, but at this time, it was used against the savage cavalry.
At the beginning,
the savage army took advantage of the vulnerability of the mixed composition of the Yan State's Left Route Army to complete its attack on the Left Route Army on the banks of the Wangwang River;
Today,
the real elites of Yan State, led by Marquis Jingnan, are treating others in their own way.
Compared with quality?
Comparing military discipline?
Compared with literacy?
Than experience?
Compared with cooperation?
Come on,
Compare!
These two armies once faced an enemy twice as big as themselves. They fought thousands of miles in ten days and defeated the pride of the Three Jin Knights!
You savage,
what do you think you are?
When the Jin Kingdom was still there,
How were you bullied by the Jin cavalry? Didn’t you have any idea?
This is a kind of contempt from the bottom of my heart, but I actually lost to them last time, so this kind of grievance can be said to be accumulated a hundred times in my chest.
At this time, I was finally able to be released!
After the second piercing, there is the third piercing; after the third piercing, there is the fourth piercing; after the fourth piercing, there is the fifth piercing...
Armor It is true that it is not as sophisticated as before, but the tenacity and pride in its bones have not changed at all.
After these repeated and continuous penetrations, the savage army had been cut into pieces. Finally, after such a long period of confusion and chaos, it led to a rout.
It’s not that you don’t want to fight, or that you don’t dare to fight, but this situation makes people unable to see hope. Once there is no hope, people will become confused. After the people around them flee, the rest People can only choose to follow and flee together, even if their original intention is not to escape.
The top savages, who had lost both their organizational structure and their command system, had no way to deal with this situation. What's more, a tribal leader appeared under his own banner and began to flee eastward on his own initiative.
The reason why I ran away with a flag was because I wanted to gather as many warriors from my clan as possible, but this was like the last straw that broke the cow's head, and the situation completely collapsed!
The Savage King was confused. When the Yan army began to penetrate the Savage Army formation repeatedly, he already understood that the Yan army in front of him was definitely not a miscellaneous army composed of the local army and the forbidden army of the Chengguo army. This tactic, this kind of fighting method, he had seen the Zhenbei Army use countless times when he was in Beifeng County!
This is the ultimate expression of the use of cavalry and the most powerful interpretation of cavalry tactics. It looks like a pack of wolves driving goats all over the mountains and plains.
Gou Moli originally hoped that his warriors could perform miracles, but because there were obviously more people on his side, he even started to pray for the stars for protection!
Only when a person is completely powerless and confused about reality will he extravagantly hope to find comfort in the illusory.
But now, it is daytime,
and during the day,
there are no stars.
Sang Hu personally led more than a thousand cavalry around him to protect the Savage King. Alai also came to the Savage King at this time. He took off his mask, revealing the one that belonged to him and the Savage King. Very similar faces.
What it means is self-evident.
At the beginning, also in front of Jingnan Hou’s army, the Savage King left and asked Alai to be his substitute.
Now, it seems that it is the turn of fate, or facing the Marquis of Jingnan, the same scene as last time happened again.
The Savage King blinked and his eyes were a little moist. He did not wait for his cronies to persuade him, nor did he hesitate. He quickly took off his white wolfskin robe and handed it to Alai. Together with Sang Hu, they began to flee eastward.
Collapse,
Defeated,
already,
there is nothing we can do about it!
In fact, the real casualties of both sides in the fierce fighting so far are only tens of thousands, which is really nothing compared to the huge battlefield of more than 200,000 people.
But the collapse of one side has occurred, and the following battle is very simple for the victorious side.
Yan troops from all walks of life began to charge eastward involuntarily.
This is like a plow. Even if the savages escape, they have to plow it again!
Crush him completely, scatter him,
leave him with no possibility of gathering his troops!
The fleeing savages came to Wangjiang River. Without any hesitation, they started to go back from where they originally came.
However,
because the barbarian army was in a hurry when they crossed the river, unlike the Yan army who made a lot of preparations and precautions when they crossed the river the night before, in fact, when they came over before, there were already many cracks and collapses in the ice. , there are also many savage warriors who fell under the ice before going to the battlefield to find the embrace of the stars in advance.
This time, they quickly re-crossed the river. Because it was not yet night, the damaged ice had not yet refrozen, so the savages found large and small holes in the ice one after another when crossing the river. Appear.
After some barbarian knights fell down with their horses, they desperately called to the barbarians passing by for help. But at this moment, everyone was only focused on running for their lives. How could they care about this?
When some savages were crossing the river, their horses' hooves slipped and they fell to the ground. The savages behind them ran over them with their horseshoes.
When crossing the river before, it can only be said that they were overly pursuing the efficiency of crossing the river and caused some confusion. At this time, they were crossing the river in complete chaos.
After the chaos lasted for a certain period of time, the ice on the river began to crack on a large scale. In some places, the cracks were more than 20 meters long. Once large cracks began, subsequent cracks would occur in other locations on the river. Cracking immediately began to occur in dense numbers.
More and more savages fell into the cold and biting river water. Some savages noticed something was wrong with the ice in front of them. They wanted to rein in the reins and move to another position to cross the river, but they were followed by the rear. The other savage knights who had fled and didn't know what was going on ahead were pushed forward, and shouting was useless. The people behind were crowded, and the horses were overtaking each other. There were savages constantly being squeezed into the river from the shore.
In order to prevent themselves from this situation, some savages immediately wielded weapons to kill the tribesmen who were trying to squeeze them, and as a result, even greater panic was brewing.
In the rear, the Yan army's pursuit did not stop at all, and after seeing a large-scale collapse in the ice in front, all the Yan people's eyes seemed to be shining.
The last time
tens of thousands of soldiers from the left route of the Yan Army were forcibly "pushed" into the river by savages, and corpses were found floating all over Wangjiang River.
Now,
it’s time for the savages to taste that day themselves.
………
At the foot of Yupan City, Ran Min's troops received new orders, and fifteen thousand cavalry were transferred upriver.
Seeing that the Yan people had mobilized their troops, the Chu army seemed to have some movement, but soon became quiet again.
Because the troops mobilized by the Yan people were too few.
There are much more Yan troops left outside the city than Chu troops.
On the city wall,
Qu Tiannan leaned weakly on the commander's chair.
The Yan people under the city only mobilized less than 20,000 cavalry to the north. This only shows one thing, that is, at this time, so many cavalry are enough. , because what they have to face is most likely not the powerful savages, but a large-scale defeated army of savages.
"How long has it been..."
Qu Tiannan wanted to laugh.
Finally,
The countless anger and unwillingness in his heart could only be replaced by one sentence:
"After all, he is a useless beast."
Then,
Qu Tiannan raised his hand,
ordered:
"Send the order, the soldiers and horses outside the city return to the city, and the city wall archers and crossbowmen cover it."
Qu Tiannan is not worried about the situation of the soldiers and horses returning to the city at the three city gates, because he does not think that the Yan people will choose to attack at this time , because the Yan people no longer have the need to take human lives to continue filling this city.
Some of the savages who finally crossed the river were defeated. Before they could take a breath, they suddenly saw the silhouette of the cavalry coming from the south.
Look at their armor,
Look at their flags,
The savages shouted in horror:
"The Zhenbei Army is coming!"
"The Jingnan Army is coming!"
Maybe a few senior savages including the Savage King The generals and knowledgeable leaders could have discovered before that the soldiers and horses that launched a terrifying attack and drill against them on the Jiangxi bank were definitely not local troops. He Chengguo's army and others are the real elite of the Yan people who have changed their armor;
But the ordinary wild man knights below don't know, they thought they were so desperate by a "rabble" before He was defeated, and now he finally managed to escape a little bit, but he encountered the even more terrifying and powerful Yan people's ace cavalry.
This time,
there was no need to fight at all, the savages immediately became desperate. Some began to run away completely regardless of restraints, while others dismounted and dropped their weapons and knelt down to beg for their lives.
They are tired and they have given up. At this time, no matter how bright the stars are, they can no longer awaken their fighting spirit.
However,
the savages knelt down and surrendered,
Just waiting for the cold slogans that kept shouting among the Yan army:
“The Marquis has an order, no prisoners will be kept!”
“The Marquis has an order, no prisoners will be kept! ”
“The Marquis has an order, no prisoners shall be kept” (End of Chapter)
