Chapter 1300: The Death of the Scarlet Sun and the Retreat
Crossbow arrows are shot from all directions, no matter how the side cards can not be blocked, the iron thistle on the ground, and people have to be cautious, action and attention are greatly limited, for the defenders in the camp, these Jin army foot soldiers are their excellent targets, the action is very slow and clumsy, it doesn't take too much effort at all, you can shoot a person, if it is not for the other party's side card cover, the god arm bow can shoot a person. {We don't write, we're just web word porters.} -
Many of the Jin army foot soldiers were killed, they were shot by arrows from all directions, some people were forced to gather together, surrounded by a circle, and the side cards were outward to resist the arrows, waiting for the people who dared to die in front to eliminate the thistle, they did not dare to move, as long as one person made a mistake, it may lead to the death of all people, so don't talk about any attack.
They paid a great price, but they did not take a joint camp, but only the abandoned guard camp, which was also ignited by a raging fire.
Wasted the strength of the two tigers, and finally eliminated the thistle, only to step on the bones of the dead to swarm up, set up a simple ladder, but was attacked by the defense of the Song army, few people can be attacked from both sides, alive to advance fifty steps, this is the advantage of the ring defense joint venture, each village is close to each other, can effectively support the other side of the battle, compared with the east village is much more convenient.
Wu Lie saw a black line, so he could only let part of the troops withdraw and reorganize, and then use the advice of the Han generals to cover with light baggage vehicles, approach the Song army camp and shoot at each other, suppress the arrows in both directions, and then send people to attack.
Although he did not spare the lives of these lowly people, he did not allow them to be consumed in vain, concentrating his forces to capture a village first, and coming one by one, he couldn't eat hot tofu in a hurry, and too much consumption affected the overall situation.
However, their infantry had just come up, and they were very unsuitable for the opponent's company and battalion operations, and they were very clumsy, and the casualties were high.
The Jin army was deflated in Nanzhai, but it shined in Dongzhai, Kong Yanzhou fought to the death and did not retreat, the wall of the main village in Dongzhai was in danger, in the face of the wave attack of tens of thousands of Jin Army, anyone would feel hopeless, and the officials of the Qianzhai were panicked, for fear of being broken and slaughtered.
Although he issued the order to fight to the point of one soldier and one soldier, Feng Yuan was not at ease with Dongzhai, and entrusted Pei Shang to supervise the battle, and secretly told him that if he could not do anything, he could give up Qianzhai.
Brutal in battle, the general must be ruthless to ensure that the officer persists for a longer time, perhaps very inauthentic, but it is very necessary.
Especially in the case of the defeat in the first battle of the Hedong Xingying, it can be said that it was besieged by the Jin army, and the situation was quite grim, and it was impossible to hold on without the belief of decisive death. The belief in death will definitely be shared by some people, but not everyone has it, and they can only force the officials to fight hard through iron and blood.
Of course, a smart general will not do things desperately, and when there is no hope at all, he can use a temporary retreat to gain a more favorable defensive posture, and he will still make wise adjustments, and it is impossible to waste the elite on useless battles.
Pei Shang was ordered to come to Dongzhai, and when he saw the commander of the 27th Brigade, he did not ask for a retreat, and said toughly: "Dongzhai must be defended, even if it is the last person who insists." ”
"The captives are attacking too fiercely, and the front village can't hold it for too long." The commander said unceremoniously, even if he knew that Pei Shang was in charge of the camp and joined the army, he was not afraid at all, this was not a matter of face, but a matter of survival.
"Isn't Xizhai hard? It must be held, at all costs. Pei Shang was resolute and did not back down even a step.
Du Commander's face changed slightly, and he said in a deep voice: "Isn't this difficult for a strong man?" There is a Qinshui interval in Xizhai, I am here with a flat river, not even a deep trench, there are thousands of people, and I need to resist tens of thousands of troops, which is simply unbearable. If you hook up to restrain the army, will you be able to hold it? ”
"Where can you retreat? Houzhai also has to bear the pressure of the captives, and then retreat back to Zhongzhai. Pei Shang shook his head and smiled, it was a bitter smile.
The commander was speechless for a while, Pei Shang was very right, where could he retreat? Even if you arrive in Houzhai, you have to face the superior Jin Army, and it is still a hard fight.
"We can hold on for as long as we can, kill and injure as many captives as possible, and consume their strength, so that we can hold on longer." Pei Shang also understands the difficulties, the Jin army is desperate to attack non-stop, if it is placed in the terrain of Xizhai, it is better, even if it is Nanzhai is not far from Zhongzhai, and can get effective reinforcements, the terrain of Dongzhai is too flat, mainly as a barrier to Zhongzhai, it is really not easy to hold on to the present, and they have to leave a way to live.
He did not violate the order of Marshal Feng, but he was not in despair, he must not give an order to retreat, if he loosened his mouth, people's hearts would be in chaos, and he could hold on for a moment, and he must not give up in half a pillar of incense.
"Then do your best." The commander sighed, his gaze becoming resolute.
Pei Shang took a deep look at the battlefield and said in a deep voice: "I will assist the town lord, and if necessary, I will fight back fiercely, so that they can also understand that the Gong Saint Army is both offensive and defensive." ”
"Hehe, the seventy-two generals will follow the king to kill, how can they weaken their prestige?" The commander has confidence, and naturally he is also heroic.
"Yes, you can't weaken the name of the seventy-two generals, the Gong Holy Army has followed the seventy-two generals, and it has not tasted defeat in hundreds of battles, and it will not be today."
Seeing that he was approaching the camp step by step, Kong Yanzhou's bandit spirit came up and organized a ferocious attack, the Jin army was in a formation of three people, one person wore heavy armor, and the other two were responsible for follow-up support, the one wearing heavy armor died in battle, and the other person stripped off the armor of the deceased, put on it and continued to attack, this kind of lifeless dispatch was indeed effective, and the battle record piled up with corpses was costly, but the resistance of the Song army weakened.
Of course, Kong Yanzhou didn't just use his life, he pulled up more than a dozen stone throwers, as well as those bed crossbows, and began to fight back. Many of the arrows fired at the civil engineering wall were rockets and artillery.
The wall of the Song army has been riddled with holes, the defenders on the wall have suffered heavy casualties, and the fire in the camp has also been caused by the rockets of the Jin army, and the scene is terrible.
The defenders still resolutely resisted, and the brigade town issued a military order not to retreat, but the Jin army was too crazy, they did not have the deterrent power of Beizhai, did not have the convenience of Nanzhai close to Zhongzhai and Xizhai, and did not have the big river in Xizhai to block it, everything was fought to the death with manpower.
One person died in battle, and another person added it, there was really no forbidden army to adjust, and the accompanying township army was gone, so the people were used to go up.
In the end, the defenders fought an excellent battle, the wall still collapsed in a few places, several generals were killed on the spot, and the Jin army swarmed in, they desperately tried to stop but could not do anything.
