Chapter 1006: Huanghuang Hanwei 130
Stepping on the corpses all over the ground, the foot soldiers of both sides were strangled together, and without the shooting of the crossbow machine like rain, the courage of the Chu army seemed to return to the body, and the blood of the previous companions also aroused the fierce spirit in their bodies, and in the roar of the flat soil, the Chu army bravely rushed up.
The cavalry of both sides were the first to fight together on both flanks of the battlefield, and whoever defeated the opponent first would be of great help to the main battlefield in the center. These are two teams dominated by infantry, and the cavalry is in their lineup, which is more used to contain zuò.
After more than a year of training, fighting, the Chu army has basically been reborn, in the battle with the Qi army, they basically ended in victory in every battle, and the victory of each step also gave this army a strong self-confidence, especially the flat soil, but also a master who does not hit the south wall and does not look back, he is not surprised to see the Han army rushing forward to engage in hand-to-hand combat, as long as it is hand-to-hand combat, he has not been afraid of anyone.
But soon, Bian Yang knew that he was wrong, first of all, there was a huge gap between the two sides in terms of equipment, the Chu army could basically only be equipped with leather armor, this kind of armor was on top of protection, it can only be said that it was better than nothing, and the opponent was wearing iron armor, and the steel knife was slashed on the opponent's body, and the loud noise and tooth-souring friction sound made every Chu army feel cold in their hearts, even if the spear was stabbed, the best result was to stab the opponent to the ground, but the blood gushing from the spearhead in the desire did not appear at all. Unless your spear or knife can hit the opponent in the face, you can kill the enemy.
In contrast, the sharpness of the weapon in the opponent's hand is even more terrifying, a knife on the leather armor, a light drag, the leather armor will be dragged out of a long hole, and with the leather armor rolled together, is the soldier's flesh and blood, splashed out of the hot blood, spear stab, the leather armor is like a tattoo on the paper, easily piercing the leather armor.
If the gap in weapons can be made up with perseverance and courage, then the gap between the two sides in combat skills cannot be made up with these, as Cheng Siwei encountered before, these Han troops can always form a situation of more fighting less in a very small range, three or two, four or five people, can always quickly integrate into one, become a combat group, as if they have been fighting together, some people specialize in killing, skilled cooperation, killing people is as easy as chopping melons and vegetables.
When the cavalry on both flanks was also exhausted, Bian Yang knew that he would never win this battle, and the middle lane was forcibly embedded by the opponent, and the two wings had been pressed into a long strip of flattening at this time. If you don't make a quick decision, your army will be completely ruined here.
"Retreat, the whole army retreats, and our army will be cut off!" Flat Soil roared loudly. The Chinese flag waved, conveying orders to the wings.
"Chinese army, follow me to rush forward!" Seeing that the two wings began to retreat, Bian Yang held a shield in one hand and a sword in the other, led by the only remaining more than 1,000 soldiers around him, as well as 5,000 Chinese troops, and fought against the battle.
Tie Hyun stared at the flat soil that came back from the reverse kill, although the opponent, he still couldn't help but praise: "This flat soil is really brave, by the way, those people around him who painted their faces in a mess are also quite amazing. Command the two wings, surround the left and right, and eat his Chinese army first."
The military horn sounded, and the Han army on both wings began to move closer to the Chinese army, surrounded on three sides to encircle and annihilate the thousands of Chinese troops in Majiayu, compared to the Chu army on both wings, of course, the value of the Chinese army's flat soil is much higher.
The command skills of the two wings were revealed at this moment, just when the left and right wings were just about to close the mouth, his Chinese army suddenly rushed out from the junction of the two wings of the Han army, even if the two wings of the Han army quickly closed the mouth, it only held more than 2,000 people, but let the other 3,000 people escape from Shengtian.
The good situation actually let the flat soil escape, Tie Hyun couldn't help but be very angry, and immediately led the army to chase fiercely, biting the tail of the flat soil and gnawing fiercely, but such a pursuit battle, in the face of an orderly retreat but did not get much results, chasing until dark, Tie Hyun had to stop advancing.
Ma Jiayu lost nearly 5,000 people in the first battle, and for him, the loss of manpower is still a small matter, the key is that he has determined that with his own strength, he will not be able to kill back Jucheng at all, and there is no time for General Qu Wan to join the army, and if Jucheng does not get reinforcements, it is only a matter of time before the city is broken.
Retreating all the way to Pan Jiayu, setting up camp, Bian Yang looked at the direction of Jucheng in distress, thinking about what he should do next, now he is surrounded by enemies. Putting aside the Han army, Tian Jingwen's Qi army must also be eyeing him, and Tian Jingwen is not doing anything to himself now, just because he is at war with the Han army.
Tie Hyun won a big victory here, and flattened the flat soil, but Zheng Xiaoyang suffered a big loss here, in the contest with Qu Wan, not only him, but even Meng Chong, the commander of Nanye, also suffered a big deflated this time.
Meng Chong first made a gesture and deliberately told him that Bian Yang has come and is coming to save you, and now I am going to besiege Bian Yang, and you still don't come out to rescue?
Meng Chong took his army to scratch his head here, but this was a vain performance, no matter how conspicuous his soldiers and horses were mobilized, Qu Wan in the city did not move at all, so that Zheng Xiaoyang, who was ambushed, was bored with a boss, and finally Meng Chong really felt that it was really useless to go on, and the other party was obviously an old fox who had become a spirit, and he was not moved at all, Meng Chong took his troops and rushed straight to Tie Xun, ready to focus on cleaning up the flat soil, and Zheng Xiaoyang could only rush back to besiege the city with a wilt.
But just when Meng Chong had just left, and Zheng Xiaoyang's retreating team was not in place, Qu Wan in the city suddenly moved, and if he didn't move, the whole army poured out, and more than 10,000 Chu troops came out of Jucheng, and Zheng Xiaoyang was caught off guard, and Peng Chao's division in front of Qu Wan's attack was almost defeated by the whole line, if it wasn't for Huang Zhan's quick reaction, Peng Chao was only afraid that he would be killed. In this battle command of the main generals of both sides, Zheng Xiaoyang completely fell behind, when Qu Quan's army killed Peng Chao's division, he waved his army to attack Jucheng, wanting to force the enemy's lair to force Qu Wan to retreat, but Qu Wan didn't care about the gains and losses of Jucheng at all, just chased Peng Chao's army and beat him, and finally Huang Zhan found out that something was wrong, and violated Zheng Xiaoyang's order in the battle, and did not go to attack Jucheng but went directly to rescue Peng Chao, which brought back Peng Chao's remnants. And Qu Wan had already killed Peng Chao's army at this time, and he went far away.
From the very beginning, Qu Wan never had the idea of sticking to Jucheng, let alone going to rescue Bianyang, he was thinking about running back to Linyi.
Meng Chong, who heard the news and returned, rushed to the bottom of Jucheng, and saw the mess all over the ground, although the banner of the Han army was planted on the top of Jucheng, but the first army was full of shame. Led by Zheng Xiaoyang, a large group of senior officers hung their heads, waiting for Meng Chong to go berserk.
The boiled duck not only flew away, but when he left, he turned into an eagle and took a hard bite of the hunter, a result that made the First Army feel shameless.
Meng Chong didn't get angry, but looked at Jucheng for a long time, and then sighed: "It's none of your business, if you are really responsible, the first one will hold me accountable, the king is right, over the years, our Han army will win the battle, attack must conquer, almost never suffer any defeat, from the senior generals, down to the ordinary soldiers, all of them are very arrogant, and regard the heroes of the world as nothing, which is why today's defeat."
Although Jucheng was taken, in Meng Chong's view, the battle of Jucheng was a defeat.
"Learn from this!" Meng Chong walked towards the remains of the soldiers killed in the battle in a low voice, on the open space outside Jucheng, rows of soldiers' bodies covered with white cloth were neatly placed, and at a glance, there was no end in sight, in this battle, Peng Chao's division, which bore the brunt of the casualties, exceeded 2,000 people." This is the lesson of blood, never underestimate your enemy, even if one moment he is trembling under your feet, the next moment he will burst out and hurt others. The king told us never to have mercy on the dogs, but to beat them until they were beaten to death."
"Honor the king's command." The generals of the First Army shouted in unison.
"Pray for the martyrs who died in battle!" Meng Chong took off his helmet and hung his head.
"Flag!" A shout conveyed the order to the whole army, and the countless flags of the First Army were leveled into their hands at the same time, and all the soldiers took off their helmets.
"Battle song, up!"
The long sword is directed to the northern territory;
The remnant sun is like blood, flowing on the journey south;
Banner hunting, summoning the war drums of the eastward;
The yellow sand is long, and it can't stop the footsteps of the westward expedition.
In the past, the war songs had to be full of passionate and indomitable momentum, but today, there are a few more tragic colors.
Panjiayu, the big camp of the flat soil, several Chu soldiers crossed the mountains and mountains, bypassed the camp of Tie Hyun, and saw the flat soil.
"The general has broken through!" Hearing this news, Bian Yang couldn't help laughing, General Qu Wan was really extraordinary, in such a situation, not only was he able to break through with his whole body, but also took the opportunity to severely damage the enemy.
"The general has returned to Linyi, which is close to the mainland, even if the Han army chases after him, General Qu Wan will no longer be afraid of the opponent, and for General Bian's next move, General Qu Wan has also made arrangements!" A soldier took out a sealed dossier from his bosom: "This is a secret letter from the Great General."
A handful of the sealed fire paint was torn off, and after reading the contents carefully, Bianyang's face was first surprised, and then calm. I see, when you go back, tell the general, and I'll act according to the plan."
"Yes!"
"Be careful along the way. I'd rather take a few more detours than fall into the hands of the Han army!" Bian Yang admonished. (To be continued......)
