1616. Chapter 1616 The Battle of Gangneung
As the saying goes: a soldier is also a sophisticer. You can know the treachery from the first battle between the two parties just now, but now, they are brazenly asking the people on the river bank to retreat and allow them to land?
This-
If something goes wrong, there must be a demon, this sentence flashed in my mind, and I immediately turned my head to look at Pei Yuanxiu, who was sitting quietly in the chair.
He held on to the armrests of the chair steadily, his eyes were introverted, and there was even more turmoil inside, looking directly at those people on the riverbank, as if he had become a bamboo in his chest.
Zhao Yuncheng, how will he deal with it?
As I said to Han Zitong before, we may still have room to show our strength in other things, but once we move the knife and the gun, this is really not something that a woman can interfere with, I haven't read the book of war, and I don't know the art of war, but even so, I have read ancient books, and ancient books have recorded wars similar to this.
I have seen more than one case where the retreat of the army on the riverbank can easily cause confusion in the military formation, or even trample on each other before and after, and the situation of self-chaos, once the enemy's army begins to rush to the riverbank, it is easy to inflict an oppressive blow on them!
Could it be that Pei Yuanxiu just wants to do this?
Therefore, he even gave up the opportunity to advance at a high speed and take advantage of his unpreparedness to attack Jiangling, but instead let this Mr. Xie personally come to the war letter, once the war book is issued, the war will become an open and honest match, Zhao Yuncheng is reasonable, and he can't refuse their request!
And Zhao Yuncheng, how will he deal with it?
I held on to the fence and watched every move on the riverbank with wide eyes, and after Mr. Xie's words drifted by in the wind, everyone's eyes were also on Zhao Yuncheng, who was at the forefront of the team
In between, he quietly raised his hand and made a gesture to the people around him.
His order was delivered, and the standard-bearer standing on the high spot waved his flag three times at the troops waiting below.
Immediately, the formation began to move.
Is he really going to retreat?!
I was so nervous that I almost held my breath, and even my heartbeat stopped for a moment, and the other people on the boat were also very nervous, and even the sound of the wind became noisy, and Pei Yuanxiu looked at this scene, and his breath became a little heavier than just now.
At this moment, the military formation suddenly divided into three sections.
I looked at it from a distance, the military formation was like an iron plate, I originally thought that if they wanted to move, they would move together, but I didn't expect the military formation to suddenly divide into three sections, when the flag bearer waved the first time, the last section began to move first, they all turned back, neatly walked out fifty steps.
Sonic Boom Mountain!
When they had withdrawn fifty paces, the standard-bearer on the high ground waved a second blow, and the group of soldiers in the middle of the section also turned backwards and took thirty steps back.
Immediately afterwards, the flag-bearer waved a third time.
The team facing the river at the front took ten steps back!
The expected chaos of the military formation, the tragic phenomenon of trampling on each other did not appear, not only that, but the military formation that was trained so standardized was really surprising, not only I was stunned, but the generals around me, even Han Zitong, who did not understand military affairs at all, were stunned.
This time, I already fully understood.
Pei Yuanxiu's call just now was indeed to cause chaos in the military formation on the shore, but what he didn't expect was that like setting up an ambush on the rocky beach, Zhao Yuncheng had already seen through the tricks they would use in the war;
This is really rare!
Even Pei Yuanxiu, who had always been light and light-hearted, had a good strategy for him, his face became solemn at this moment, he nodded involuntarily, and then said softly: "Good formation." ”
After speaking, he glanced back at the generals: "Do you still think that guarding Jiangling is a mediocre talent?"
The generals were already stunned, but when he asked this, they were even more speechless, and when they looked at the neatly lined up three-section procession on the riverbank, their faces became heavy.
Everyone can see that this battle is not easy to fight!
And I, even if the battle has not started at this time, I already have some uncontrollable joy in my heart - I really didn't expect Zhao Yuncheng to be able to train this army so well, although I have inspected it in the barracks before, but everyone knows that talking on paper is the simplest, and it is really extraordinary to be able to show such strength when really facing the enemy!
Although he had been fighting with Tu Shuhan in the northwest before, and most of the cavalry should have been used, but the infantry could do this, it was really amazing!
If he is allowed to lead the cavalry, he is afraid-
At this moment, without waiting for me to think about those useless ones, a general on the side had already leaned down and said to Pei Yuanxiu: "Childe, since this is the case, then we-"
Pei Yuanxiu said lightly: "According to the original plan." ”
"Yes. ”
As soon as the words fell, the man turned and went down, and in an instant, dozens of warships suddenly appeared on the river, all of which came out of the back of our ship at a rapid pace, and there were many small boats following these warships, and as before, the three small boats were connected in chains, which were relatively light and dexterous compared to the huge warships, and the speed was not greatly affected.
They're getting ready to land!
This time, I was nervous again.
After landing on the shore, it is a white-knuckle battle between you and me, face to face, either dead or wounded, and there is no other strategy to speak of, and I think the number of people brought by Pei Yuanxiu and their side far exceeds the number of people Zhao Yuncheng stationed in Jiangling, if you really want to fight like this, I'm afraid Zhao Yuncheng will not be able to get much cheap!
If I knew, I shouldn't have let them go ashore!
Thinking like this, my brow furrowed.
The wind was howling, the water was surging, and seeing that those warships had approached the shore one after another, the people on the boat were all armored, holding swords, and facing the front solemnly, and the military formation on the shore, as before, did not have the slightest confusion, but after Zhao Yuncheng waved his hand, the flag bearer in the high place waved another flag.
All of them sprinted!
Seeing that the boat had sailed to the shallow water, he heard an order from the general here: "Rush me!"
As soon as the words fell, the soldiers on the warship jumped off the boat like a tiger out of a cage and a dragon out of the sea, and for a time the water splashed everywhere, and the crowd was crowded, and the shallow water of the entire river bank seemed to be boiling a pot, and they jumped into the water and immediately rushed forward.
The first people have already landed!
At this moment, Zhao Yuncheng raised a hand.
When the standard-bearer standing on the high place saw this, he immediately waved his flag, and the first column of the three military formations on the bank of the river immediately assumed a sprinting posture, and after he gave the order, they all rushed forward with a roar.
For a while, the sound of water on the river was agitated, and the two teams of people and horses immediately rushed together, like two dark clouds with ten thousand thunderbolts colliding into one place, which suddenly aroused the thunder and fire of heaven and earth, and the swords struck each other, and they were even sharper in the snow-white waves, as if they could cut off the water waves!
Seeing this scene, my hand gripping the fence was already tense.
And those who are going to land on this side are not idle, as the first team of men and horses on the shore began to fight, the general on Pei Yuanxiu's side shouted again: "Up!"
As soon as the words fell, more soldiers jumped from the warship that had reached the shallow water.
But this time, they weren't the only ones who took action!
For I saw that the three small boats, bound together by chains, had also reached the shallow waters, but the men in the small boats had no intention of jumping out of the boat and rushing ashore with them, but had taken their weapons out of the boats.
If you look closely, it's all archers!
Those people took out their bows and arrows, drew their bows and wound them, and pointed countless arrows at the sky in unison, and we stood on the high warship and looked down, as if we saw countless cold stars, flickering in the rippling water, and each cold star seemed to herald the arrival of a death!
They're here to help get ashore!
Sure enough, after all the arrows were on the bowstring, the general here gave an order: "Release the arrows!"
Suddenly, the sky was filled with cold light!
Similar to the scene when the rockets were fired at the rocky beach just now, but completely different, those arrows flashed with cold light, like lightning to the riverbank, seeing that the second section of the army formation under Zhao Yuncheng was about to rush to this side, but those arrows had already fallen, just shooting on the section of the road they were about to rush forward, preventing the impact of this group of soldiers!
They were stopped.
Although it is only temporary, but the battlefield is changing rapidly, although the second army formation was only stopped, and the soldiers on the river who were ready to land were not ambiguous at all, they had all jumped off the warship, and rushed forward bravely in the splash of water more than one person, the first team on both sides had become a group at the moment, and once the second road of people and horses on this side rushed forward, they controlled the scene in terms of momentum and numbers!
If it goes on like this, without waiting for Zhao Yuncheng's second group of people to rush up, the whole situation will be completely controlled by them!
Zhao Yuncheng, what will he do?
I was so nervous that I forgot my heartbeat and breathing, and stared straight down, and Pei Yuanxiu, who was sitting on the chair, although he was not as nervous as the people around him at the moment, he was actually not relaxed, and when he held the armrest with both hands, he was slightly forced, and even the back of his hand was full of traces of green tendons!
Seeing that his men and horses have been completely launched, most of them have landed on the shore, oppressing Zhao Yuncheng's team backwards, and gradually driving them to the depths of the river bank, once all their people have landed, the war will really be difficult to fight!
At this moment, suddenly, there was a muffled sound in the depths of the mountains and forests in the distance!
