Chapter 114 Chaos
Gao Yu, who was fighting over there, was stunned when he saw his brother lying on the ground, mourning. He stabbed one of them to death, and then roared towards Guan Yu.
But Guan Yu ignored him and led his men to kill the guards and rush into the tent.
Just as Gao Yu was about to pursue him again, Li Damu was already coming to kill him. Seeing that this man looked like a general, he casually took a halberd from the guard behind him and threw it towards Gao Yu.
Poor Gao Yu was so full of revenge that he didn't notice this strike on Guan Yu. He was stabbed directly in the face by the halberd and died.
Over there, a splash of blood and ink was sprinkled on the big tent, and then Guan Yu rushed out with a first-level weapon in his hand, shouting in the night:
"The enemy generals will be killed by me, Guan Yu, and those who surrender will avoid death."
The guards who were still resisting saw that the head of Guan Yu was one of the main generals in the battle. The county army Cao Wangkang had no intention of fighting, so they knelt down and surrendered.
Jin's wall is broken!
From the time Guan Yu led his troops into Jin's Wall to the formation beheading the enemy Wang Kang, it only lasted a moment. In other words, Guan Yu led his troops into the wall without stopping at all, and everything he did was broken. It can be said that the invasion was like fire.
When Guan Yu entered Jin's wall, two miles away Yang Mao also led Dian Wei and other generals to the enemy's stronghold outside the wall.
In fact, it is a village, but it is just a Muzha village, and the defenses are sparse. The soldiers stationed here were soldiers from the Dongpingling Kingdom and the Gaoer family. They did not want to gather with the local tycoon soldiers at Jin's wall, so they specially camped outside the wall.
But they have never had any military skills, and they did not take the establishment of a stronghold seriously. After all, they were going to have some fun tomorrow at the next village tycoon's wall, so how could they think about building a camp.
Besides, it's night now, who would choose to attack at night?
In fact, what they thought was not unreasonable.
Since ancient times, there have been very few night battles in military wars. First, sergeants are generally night blind and cannot bear to fight at night. The other is that there is no distinction between ourselves and the enemy, and there is no unique logo. Often the two armies are fighting each other, only to find that they are all our own.
But conversely, the use of troops depends on surprise and night fighting. Because fighting at night is difficult, sergeants are generally the most relaxed at night, and night attacks can best achieve unexpected effects.
This is also the reason why Zhang Chong chose to attack at night. At this moment, these Dongpingling soldiers were indeed unprepared.
When Yang Mao led the generals, guided by Fei Jun carrying flags, they reached the base of the stronghold. There is a wooden watchtower beside the village, and several soldiers are dozing there.
The whole village was pitch dark, without any lights.
Yang Mao began to arrange the attack sequence. He ordered Chen Huan to lead the Shetun to shoot the enemy soldiers on the watchtower to death. Then Wang Zhang and Chang Xi led their men to tie up ropes and overturn the horse. Afterwards, all the soldiers swarmed in and killed him.
After that, Chen Huan selected some of the most proud marksmen from the army, drew his bow and fired his arrows, hitting the enemy soldiers on the watchtower. The enemy soldiers hit the muddy ground with a plop.
Over there, Wang Zhang and Chang Xi also successfully overturned the enemy's horses, and took the lead in taking the lead in entering the enemy's stronghold with their swordsmen and soldiers. Then Yang Mao also led Dian Wei, Heifu, Wei Zhou and others to attack the stronghold, and followed him into the camp.
The sky was boiling for a while, with fighting, fire, and blood everywhere.
But this was a night battle after all, and everyone rushed into the enemy's stronghold in an organized manner, but as they continued to kill, the people became chaotic. The general cannot find the soldiers, and the soldiers cannot find the general.
At this time, Heifu became separated from his troops. Before, he rushed in with his troops, and if they covered their heads, they would be killed. This is also the result of Zhang Chong's teachings. When his soldiers go to the battlefield, they don't care about anything else. The most important thing is to rush, fight and chase fiercely.
This method of fighting is good, but the disadvantage is that it becomes chaotic when you fight. Of course, this kind of chaos will become an advantage to a certain extent, that is, using chaos to bring the enemy's troops to your own level, and using your own advantage of elite soldiers to win in the chaos.
But in this dark night, it was dangerous for Heifu.
Hei Fu was still with everyone when he rushed in, but as he continued to kill, he suddenly found that there was no one behind him, and at this time, another group of men and horses came out of the tent opposite and were killing him.
At this critical moment, Heifu had an idea, turned around immediately, and shouted to kill him in the direction of his home.
When the enemy troops charging over there saw Hei Fu like this, they naturally thought they were their own troops, so they followed Hei Fu and charged forward to kill him.
But not long after he rushed in, there was a hail of arrows coming from the opposite side.
It turned out that Chen Huan happened to bring people from Shetun in. When he saw a wave of people coming from the opposite side, he immediately ordered his men to take action.
This wave is really a lucky one. He was already dark, and he was wearing black clothes that night. The night gave him a protective color invisibly.
The Jinan Dongpingling soldiers who were fighting with him each had only torches, so they should not be too obvious in the dark night. So this wave of arrow rain fell on them, and they screamed again and again.
At this moment, Hei Fu's face was covered with sweat. He almost died under the arrows of his own family. That was such an injustice.
He didn't dare to move anymore and just shouted towards the opposite side:
"Stop cumming, I'm a black husband."
Chen Huan was in the formation. Although he felt strange when he heard this, he was always cautious and did not speak rashly because he was worried that his position would be exposed if he spoke. If there was a sharpshooter on the other side, wouldn't he answer the call? fall?
So he just stopped his men from firing arrows, and then took a crossbow and went over with the guards. Once we arrived, we found out that it was really Hei Fu.
In this way, Heifu saved his life.
Over there, Dian Wei encountered the same situation as Heifu after he entered the enemy's stronghold. The difference was that there were two guard troops behind him, but hundreds of people surged up from the opposite side. At that time, the faces of the two guards turned pale. They looked at Dian Wei, hoping that he would lead them to retreat first and join the soldiers behind to invite the attack.
But Dian Wei had no intention of running away. Instead, he stuck all the halberds carried by the guard on the ground, and then ordered one of them to start reporting the number of steps to the enemy for him.
The two of them were helpless. Even if Dianwei refused to withdraw, they did not dare to withdraw either. Don't look at Qu Kui who treats his brothers with the same clothes and food, and treats them like brothers. But since the military law was established, no one dared to violate the prohibition, because the one who violated the law had been beheaded by Zhang Chong himself, and Qu Kui himself cut off his hair to show that he was incapable of pacifying the army.
According to military law, those who abandon their generals in front of the formation and lose their generals will be beheaded.
Therefore, these two people knew that if they escaped, they would die if they returned, so they might as well fight with Dian Wei. Moreover, Qu Kui told all the soldiers in the army that in the future, when they leave Mount Tai eastward, they will also be given land to the soldiers. If there are people who can farm, then they can farm with their own family; if no one can farm, then they can hire servants to farm.
In short, in a word, if you follow Qu Kui's fight, you will have your place.
So just for this land, even if they died, they would still be able to get a share of the property for their family. It was worth it.
Here, the guards on Dian Wei's right began to count:
"The enemy is thirty steps away."
Dian Wei exhaled and asked him to call him at twenty steps.
"The enemy is twenty steps away."
Dian Wei's eyes suddenly widened, his hands were like lightning, and like a storm, he threw out all ten hand halberds stuck on the ground. The enemy's number was reduced by ten, and the rest were too timid to fight, so they retreated.
Guo Liang, who was nearby, saw the situation here and immediately went over with his swords and swords to kill the enemy's last organized forces.
When Guo Liang led his brothers from Bentun into the stronghold, they did not kill them all like Dian Wei and Heifu did. Instead, they formed a formation and moved slowly in the stronghold.
From this, we can also see that people like Lei Heifu and Dian Wei are still lagging behind in terms of leadership. People like Guo Liang, although not as brave as Dian Wei, can lead troops well and their future achievements will not be low.
Like Guo Liang, Yu Jin was also able to organize military formations. His style of leading troops is to use formations to attack the sparse, and to use the masses to attack the few. They can often lead their own troops and spearmen to strangle scattered enemies with superior force.
Don't think it's easy to defeat an enemy with a large number. You must know how many troops you can lead and how to lead them well. This is an excellent demonstration of a general's commanding power.
The reason why Yu Jin was able to do this was not only because of his own keen battlefield observation, but also because he had a companion who was a soldier and served as a grassroots official for him.
Yu Jin's garrison was one of the twenty battalions in Zhang Chong's second wave of army expansion. But there is a unique thing about his camp head. When Zhang Chong was training his troops, he specially promoted a group of brave warriors who originally wanted to see Qin Feng to serve as the backbone of the forbidden camp head.
The reason for this is, firstly, to form combat effectiveness as soon as possible, and secondly, because there were too many old thieves who originally wanted Qin Feng to be recruited at that time, and they would always be organized and trained together.
These brave warriors are all familiar with Yu Jin, and many of them even grew up with He Yu Jin. Therefore, they are very resolute in carrying out Jin's orders, so Yu Jin can have the commanding power to command the entire village in night battles.
Yang Mao's side, although they experienced a period of chaos during the night battle, the enemy soldiers were even more panicked. After Guo Liang, Yu Jin and other generals defeated the enemy's final counterattack, they rushed all the way to the enemy's camp.
Everyone burned the middle tent. At this moment, the enemy leader was stripped of his clothes and armor and fell to the ground.
With his face covered with dirt, he cried out and begged the generals of Mount Tai to spare his life, but he was scolded. Among them were the officials from the Jin clan. They cursed with red eyes:
"Dog slave, when my relatives were on their knees begging for a living, why didn't you let them live?"
After hearing this, the master knew that there was no chance of survival, so he took off the black scarf and tightly covered his eyes with it. He couldn't bear to see blood, let alone his own blood. I just hope that it won’t hurt so much when I die.
As soon as he was covered, the already furious Jin clan officials on the other side chopped him into meat paste, which was literally meat paste.
Finally, the enemy general's head was delivered to Yang Mao, and the second enemy stronghold was captured.
Here Guan Yu and Yang Mao successfully defeated the army and killed the generals, but Zhang Chong, the leader of Qu, encountered big trouble.
They are lost.
When Zhang Chong, Dong Fang, Zhao Chong, Guo Song, Guo Mo, Wang Han, Duan Xiu and others were preparing to sneak from the small road to Wei City to the east of the Jin family, suddenly there was a mist in the mountains and forests.
The road they took was the one used by the mountain people to sell mountain products in the market. There were dense jungles on both sides. No one knew when the thick fog started. By the time everyone found out, they could not see more than five steps away.
Zhang Chong is helpless, war is like this, no matter how much it is, it may be of no use at all in the end. Often a strong wind, an earthquake, a heavy fog, or even a meteor can change the battlefield situation.
In the end, Zhang Chong had no choice but to use Shanliao, who was familiar with the terrain, as a guide. Everyone put their hands on the shoulders of the people in front of them and meandered forward. No one knew how long they had been walking, but when they came out of the fog, what they saw shocked them.
They walked out of the mountain forest and saw the sun rising from the horizon not far away, and lying on the ground line was an earthen city.
Only then did they realize that they had walked on the mountain road all night and arrived directly at Tugu City.
The gatekeepers on Tugu City not far away also saw them. In a moment, the sound of drums was loud and spread throughout the city.
A thief is coming!
