517 In the battle formation
Just as Haitian was preparing to meet the Emperor's invasion, Wang Lao and No. 1's secret telegram was also placed on his desk.
"Little one! The situation is chaotic in front of us, and a few of us old guys are not as good as being still! Before the situation is clear, you must take control of the situation in the south! For foreign enemies, there is no mercy! ”
A few words also broke the last doubt in Haitian's heart, he knew that this qiē was all set up by these old guys, otherwise how could so many of the emperor's men and horses cross the border so easily.......
…………
On the other side, at the front of Renqiu Town, the phalanx of the Guards Regiment, which had been waiting for orders, suddenly began to advance high, and the phalanx of the First Army Corps in front retreated to both sides, making way for the charge of the Guards Regiment.
At the moment when the formation of the Emperor's army was adjusted, Wei Chi Wushu suddenly retreated with his team, taking the opportunity to break away from close contact with the Emperor's army, although the Emperor's guards charged quite quickly, almost rushing behind the Tadashi Gang with their front and back feet.
But Wei Chi Invincible had already prepared to respond at the mouth, Xu Lang and Zhao Yu who rushed to the gap with men and horses, and Renqiu's forward position was also covered by bursts of bullets, and after a scuffle, the Zhongyi Gang retreated to Renqiu Town.
Although they succeeded in repelling the counterattack of the Tadayi Gang, the Emperor's army lost a large number of heavy weapons, and the young Emperor could not help but be furious by this result, and ordered the whole army to attack the castle overnight, and must capture Renqiu Town by tomorrow morning.
However, after such a fierce counterattack by the Tadashi Gang, the Emperor's army did not dare to be careless in the slightest, and while attacking the city, they also paid great attention to the protection of their own heavy weapons.
"It seems that our Emperor Xià is having a great time......"
The commander of the Forward Legion, who had been watching the battle from behind, couldn't help but laugh softly when he saw this.
The staff officer beside him asked in a low voice:
"General, it's almost time, should we help His Majesty?"
"Yes, it's time for the artillery to strike."
Soon, dozens of huge cannons were pushed out by the Imperial Army, lined up in front of Renqiu Town.
Almost the first round of shooting, Renqiu Town's defense system was shattered.
Seeing such a terrible destructive force, the Emperor's men and horses were all cheering and cheering, and the members of the Tadashi Gang were pale with earthy faces, and in this case, the defensive positions had lost their protective effect.
Wei Chi Invincible made a decision immediately and ordered all the staff to prepare to break through.
After three rounds of cannon fire, the defensive position of Renqiu Town was blasted out of a big gap, and a whole section of the defensive barrier completely collapsed, and the emperor's soldiers followed this gap into Renqiu Town.
The Emperor's soldiers completely occupied the southern side of the town, and then the last line of defense of the town was opened, and the emperor commanded a large army to rush in, and soon completely occupied the whole town.
With the exception of Taka Kato, who pursued the Tadayi Gang who had evacuated from the north, the rest of the troops rested for two days in the town of Renqiu, and the initial victory pleased the young emperor, who generously rewarded his generals with a large amount of gold and silver treasures.
The emperor's generals also congratulated their own emperor on their first victory. The many praises made the young emperor a little carried away.
"In the future, I will always personally command the soldiers of the First Legion to fight, you see how I defeat the Loyal Gang!"
Of course, the emperor was also very dissatisfied with why the powerful artillery appeared on the battlefield so late, but the commander version of the forward corps originally had a very good reason.
Because of this huge heavy weapon, the progress of the line is too slow, and it takes a lot of time and effort for the logistics and transportation team to transport it from the base.
"If it weren't for your divine martial arts and encouragement, it might have taken two days for the cannon to arrive."
Although he knew that this was flattery, the young emperor accepted it with great pleasure.
He graciously pardoned the punishment that had been imposed on the logistics team, and allowed them to enjoy the joy of the emperor's victory.
The Tadayi Gang retreating from Renqiu Town were fiercely pursued by the Emperor's army, and they barely had a chance to breathe.
Kato Taka is worthy of being the emperor's first tiger general, and the speed of the attack is like lightning, when the captain Chi is invincible and they have just withdrawn from Renqiu Town, Kato Taka's troops cover up from behind, and the entire team is washed out at once.
Wei Chi Invincible and Xu Lang joined forces, but they couldn't resist Kato Eagle's attack, and finally added Zhao Yu, only to barely entangle Kato Eagle, a hard battle, losing more than 8,000 people, Wei Chi Invincible They finally got rid of Kato Eagle's troops and retreated in the direction of Lindian with the team.
But Kato Taka did not stop there, but reorganized his troops and followed closely behind Wei Chi Invincible and chased them down.
In such a sinister situation, Wei Chi Invincible fully exercised his command skills, fighting and retreating, ambushing, sneak attacking, and assaulting along the way, and staged several counter-pursuit battles in a row, so that the fleeing people were tired, and the pursuers became exhausted.
Finally, near Lindian, Wei Chi's invincible troops were once again overtaken by Kato Taka's cavalry, and after several encounters, Kato Taka had three thousand horses left under his men, of which 1,000 were the ones he had personally trained.
There were less than a thousand of Wei Chi's invincible men, of which 400 were archers and the rest were swordsmen.
At this point, Wei Chi Wushu knew that he could not retreat anymore, because his subordinates were already very tired, and if he retreated, the whole team might collapse immediately, so he had to order all the troops to line up and prepare for battle.
And Kato Taka is also full of respect for the tenacious opponent in front of him, and it is really surprising that he has been able to maintain the stability of the team and take advantage of himself several times in this fight.
Wei Chi Invincible had just commanded his men to take a good position, when suddenly a strange feeling surged from his heart, and before he could look back, he heard a faint shout from behind, and then smoke and dust rose from the sky behind him.
"Could it be that the Emperor's mechanical forces are circling behind us?"
A hint of foreboding flashed in Wei Chi's invincible heart, now that he had put four hundred gunners at the end of the line, and all the melee swordsmen in front, it was impossible to turn it around again, not to mention that the defensive formation was completely useless when he was caught in the dilemma of being flanked from both sides.
"It's the Assassination Hall led by Brother Tiandao!" Zhao Yu, who was standing behind the formation, suddenly shouted.
Sure enough, the centaurs who appeared in the field of vision were indeed members of the Assassination Hall, and the excited Zhongyi Gang couldn't help but have a slight commotion, and even Wei Chi Wushu was greatly relieved, and Xu Lang, who was relaxed, almost sat down to rest.
The abnormal changes in the formation of the Loyal Gang, Kato Taka standing in front of the formation also saw very clearly, and when he was about to swing the army to assault, the Loyal Gang Centaur infantry in the formation slammed away to both sides, and the beating red suddenly appeared in his field of vision, almost instantaneously, and the eyes of Kato Hawk's subordinates were full of fiery red color.
It was the first time that Kato Taka and his subordinates had seen such a divine procession, and the red centaurs appeared in front of them like lightning, forming a charging formation in front of the invincible lieutenant, and the boundless murderous aura was surging towards the emperor's team like a tide.
"Kill!"
With a thunderous roar, Takashi Kato rushed out first, knowing that the enemy would have some time to adjust his pace when he was in formation after flying high, and this was his chance.
But he soon realized that things were not as he had thought.
Under the command of Heavenly Dao, the members of the Assassination Hall showed precise tactics, the middle team shrank back a little, and the personnel on the two wings closed in the middle, and the arc of the formation just absorbed the impact of the Emperor's army.
Adopting a balanced tactic, Takashi Kato placed 1,000 elites in the middle and 1,000 soldiers on each wing, and although the Emperor's men and horses were more powerful than the members of the Assassination Hall, the ordinary soldiers on both wings of him were not as good as the members of the Assassination Hall.
After a quarter of an hour of joint battle between the two armies, the elite of the center of the Emperor's army began to suppress the members of the Assassination Hall, and the center of the formation of the members of the Assassination Hall appeared more recessed, but the strength and courage of the members of the Assassination Hall exceeded the imagination of the Emperor, and every step of the enemy's advance required a lot of strength.
However, relatively speaking, the ordinary soldiers on both wings of the Emperor could not withstand the fierce spurt of the members of the Assassination Hall, and they were already retreating.
By the time Kato Taka was in a bad situation, he and his elite had already fallen into the red sea, and the elite who had lost the protection of their wings suddenly burst out in the formation of the members of the Assassination Hall, and around them, there were many members of the Assassination Hall far above them.
The combat uniforms worn by Kato Taka's elite centaurs are made of a kind of fine iron that is a specialty of Japan, which has a strong firmness and a very light weight, so that they have both degree and attack power, but the production of this fine iron is not high, and it cannot be equipped on a large scale.
Therefore, it was quite difficult to use ordinary members of the Assassination Hall against the elite of Kamikato Taka's men, but when they surrounded the enemy, the situation was completely different, and a person was not facing a member of the Assassination Hall in front of him, but a long knife that was slashed from different directions.
Tian Dao lowered his head and dodged the attack of an enemy, and the soft sword in his hand flashed, and the enemy immediately splattered with blood.
Without waiting for anyone to land, Tiandao had already swung his sword and flicked away the long knives that were cut from both sides, and then a white sword qi spit out from the soft sword, and the blazing sword qi made the enemy scream and die, and the next moment, the figure of Kato Taka appeared in front of Tiandao's eyes.
Kato Takashi had been paying attention to the Heavenly Way for a while, and he saw this handsome man like a fiery red dragon, walking freely through the battlefield, leaving bright red marks everywhere he went, and the screams of his own men made him feel heartache.
And in the same way, the way of heaven has been looking for the enemy's main general for a while, and the name of the emperor's first tiger general makes the heart of a warrior in him very excited, and the vanguard general who defeats the enemy is also a great encouragement for the soldiers of the Zhongyi Gang.
Anyway, when the battle was at its fiercest, the two main generals finally faced each other.
The collision of black and red creates the strongest note of battle on the battlefield, and it is also the key point of victory or defeat.
After less than two rounds of fighting, both Tendo and Kato Taka understood the strength of their opponents, and the two collided in the air continuously, bursting out a series of sparks.
In another two rounds, there was an inch-long blood stain on Tiandao's arm, and there was also a large burnt black mark on Kato Taka's chest, and both sides had their own gains, but neither took much advantage.
And next to the two people, there were already more than a dozen mutilated corpses scattered that were trying to take advantage of the opportunity to sneak attack.
Although the outcome of the battle between the main generals is unpredictable, the elite of Kato Taka gradually loses the initiative under the siege of the members of the Assassination Hall, but the members of the Assassination Hall who have gained the advantage have no time to turn the advantage into a real victory, because the members of the Emperor's Pioneer Battalion who were left behind by Kato Taka have already appeared on the battlefield in the afterglow of the setting sun.
The battle lasted for a while, and the sky had already darkened, and the Tamada and Kato Taka, who had their own jealousies, had no choice but to withdraw their troops, and the Tadashi Gang retreated into Lindian, while the Emperor's army set up camp outside......
