Chapter 805: Sunrise in the East (30)
In the rear of the Eastern Army, the tall banner fluttered in the wind, and Gao Yuan, who had been staring at the changes in the battlefield, saw that the first division stood firmly on its feet, and couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief, the first three axes of the palace guards were the most difficult to resist, as long as they blocked the first wave of attacks, they could not swing their degree advantage, and the powerful infantry with the right weapons was still the only magic weapon to resist the Donghu Iron Cavalry.
The palace guards in the central battlefield began to retreat, they needed to open the distance, move the second charge, the first division did not stop, Mei Hua and Wu Ya two gathered the lineup, slowly retreated, Yang Dasha's five hundred Mo sword soldiers strode forward, against their original position, the first battalion and the second battalion approached the two sides of the Mo sword soldiers, and a solid army formation was formed again.
On both wings, the battle for cavalry continued, countless horses galloped back and forth, whether it was infantry or Shangguan Hong, the Donghu cavalry on both wings was pulled into the distance intentionally or unintentionally, but they wanted to retreat, but it was not so easy, the other party was also cavalry, and now the two sides were wrapped together, and they couldn't help but fight farther and farther with each other.
Gao Yuan turned his head, looked at Kumamoto beside him, and asked with a smile: "General Xiong, what do you think of my Eastern Army?" "
Kumamoto himself was originally a fierce general, and he fought countless big battles, but he was still overwhelmed by the vicious battle just now, generally speaking, an army,. When you lose one-third of the battle, you will lose your combat effectiveness, and if you lose two-thirds of the battle, you will definitely collapse, but today. What he saw was a different picture, the two battalions of the Young Guards of the Eastern Expeditionary Army at the forefront, the losses were definitely more than one-third, or even close to one-half, but they still fought to the death, and successfully merged into one at the last moment. Once again, the defense was solidified, and the oppressive play of the 1st Division, after withstanding the first wave of the opponent's attack, pressed the subsequent flanks up. The mortars in the middle forced the palace guards to retreat and regain their strength, all the results achieved before, at the moment when they retreated, had completely come to naught, and when they were ready for the second round of attack, the Eastern Army they faced had already re-completed the layout of the military formation.
Cavalry attack on infantry. It turned out to be a war of attrition, which was absolutely unbearable for the Donghu people.
"Such a fierce army. It's no wonder that the Governor has been invincible all these years, and the Donghu is on the verge of a desperate situation, and even the world-famous palace guards can't break through the military formation of the Eastern Army, and I can't imagine that there is still an army in the world that can match the army of the Governor." Kumamoto Road.
"Yes, there is still something! Gao Yuan turned his head and looked to the west.
Kumamoto's heart tightened. Immediately understood what Gao Yuan meant, Qin Ren. The army of the Qin Kingdom, far to the west, was also an invincible and powerful army. Over the years, the small country has been destroyed countless times, and even South Korea, one of the top seven, has no power to resist, and now it is the turn of the Wei State to tremble under their sword soldiers, if there is no Zhao people to send troops to help, it is difficult to protect themselves, and it is really difficult to say when they can support the Wei people.
"Dudu, how long do you think the Donghu people can last? Kumamoto asked.
"General Xiong, you are too humble, you have the talent of a general, and you have fought countless big battles, I believe you have already seen the key to this." Gao Yuan smiled: "Why don't you tell me, what will Thorpe do next?" "
Kumamoto looked at the Donghu army formation in the distance, "Then the general will be ugly, Thorpe gathered troops in Yulin, seeking a decisive battle with the governor, itself is a lonely throw, helpless move, our army's East Route Army in Liaoning Wei victory is a few is a foregone conclusion, soon the army and Lin, Yulin, two ways to attack Thorpe, he can only be trapped beast fighting, hoping to defeat the governor here, he will never admit defeat, in fact, the battle at this time, Thorpe should also understand that he has absolutely no chance of winning, the only thing he can do is to withdraw the army, But the withdrawal of the army means defeat for the Donghu people, Yulin has no danger to defend, he can only retreat to Helin, and the army of the Eastern Army is besieging Helin, how long can Helin last? This time, it's not the last time the Donghu people did it deliberately."
"So, Thorpe will definitely not retreat, but will attack to the death."
"Yes, Thorpe's reason for the decisive battle with the Governor here is nothing more than pinning his hopes on the strong combat effectiveness of the palace guards, but now, the palace guards obviously can't break through our army's defenses, I think Thorpe will try again, and then he will launch a full-scale attack, a suicide attack."
"Suicide attacks? Gao Yuan laughed, "What's in it for him?" His soldiers and horses have been lost here, and my army on the eastern route can still take Helin."
"What he wants is your life," Kumamoto said, "If I can kill you, then the Eastern Army will be in chaos, at least for the time being, and will not be able to attack Wabayashi anymore, and to win this precious respite, I think is exactly what Thorpe wants."
"For my life? Gao Yuan laughed, "Thorpe prides himself on being a generation of geniuses, in that case, how do you think we should deal with it?" "
"If he wants a decisive battle, he will give him a decisive battle, we don't have to wait for them to move first, but we can preempt the people, but we can disrupt their deployment, I think the Governor instructed the infantry general and the Shangguan Hong general to lead the enemy cavalry on the left and right flanks farther and farther away, and his intention is also here? "
"Okay, sure enough, the hero sees the same thing, what General Xiong said, and he will fight a decisive battle! Gao Yuan: "The infantry and Shangguan Hong will cut off the palace guards with a total of 6,000 on the left and right wings, and we have tens of thousands of troops here who will strike a fatal blow at Thorpe, if he wants to kill, why don't I want to kill him."
"Governor, Kumamoto asks for an attack! Kumamoto looked excited, as the general of the former Yan Kingdom, in his life, why didn't he want to destroy Donghu and take back the Liaodong Peninsula? But in the Yan Kingdom, this ideal can only be a fantasy, but now, this possibility has been infinitely magnified, participate in this battle, defeat Donghu, take back Liaodong, and his name will also go down in history along with the governor Gao Yuan.
Gao Yuan smiled gently, "General Xiong's loyalty and courage are understandable, but your department has not recovered to its best state now, so let's use it as the last wave of attacks, then at that time, I believe that Donghu is already in danger, you can lead the army again, and restore their confidence." Gao Yuan looked at the 20,000 Zhao army array behind Xiong himself.
Kumamoto nodded speechlessly, he knew very well that Gao Yuan was right, with the intensity of the battle he had just seen, the subordinates under his command were really unable to deal with it, if it was his subordinates who were in the current position of the first division, I was afraid that it would have collapsed long ago.
Gao Yuan's mouth said that giving the final blow to the Donghu army in a precarious situation is actually just a nice statement, in other words, it is to let him take his army to pick peaches, and use a victory to bring his army back to its previous heart.
"But the water is impermanent, the soldiers are unnormal, if we don't attack well, General Xiong, then it's up to you." Gao Yuan lifted the Mo knife in his hand.
"Is the Governor going into battle himself? Kumamoto asked in surprise.
"Of course, I haven't been in battle in person for a long time, and my bones are a little loose." Gao Yuan said with a smile: "It's rare today, there is an opponent with chess and drums, naturally there is some itchy hands, I will go into battle in person, General Kumamoto, you come to the battle, when should you go to your troops, you can grasp it yourself."
"Thank you to the Governor." Kumamoto was greatly grateful, and bowed with his fists clenched, "The last general will definitely not belong to the Governor's hope."
Gao Yuan smiled and nodded, "Thorpe is probably still expecting a miracle on the side of Arundai and Ususotan, hehe, it's really whimsical, just 20,000 cavalry, do you want to shake the tens of thousands of troops of my Northern Army?" "
In Jingyuan, the headquarters of the Northern Group Army led by Xu Yuan, the First Army of the Northern Group Army led by Yan Peng, the cavalry division led by Gongsun Yi and Luo Lei tens of thousands of troops, and the cavalry division alone has more than 15,000 cavalry, with all kinds of foot soldiers, in the direction of Jingyuan, the Eastern Army has a greater advantage.
Gao Yuan raised the Mo knife in his hand, rode forward, and as his Chinese army banner moved forward, the entire army of the Second Army under the command of Luo Weiran also advanced together.
"Conquer the Eastern Army, Wan Sheng! "
Every time the lofty banner passed by a phalanx, the soldiers in the phalanx let out a deafening cheer.
Yang Dasha turned around and saw that the high-character banner was approaching the front line, he also raised his Mo knife high, and roared angrily: "The Governor himself has gone into battle, do we still need the Governor to come to the front line, that is our shame, Young Guards, advance, assault!" "
"Young Guard, forward! Mei Hua and Wu Ya stood side by side, raised the big knife in their hands, and echoed loudly.
Yang Dasha strode forward with the five hundred Mo sword team, on their left and right, was the first battalion and the second battalion of the first division, and in their rear, Mei Hua and Wu Ya took the remnants of the third battalion and the fourth battalion with blood, reinvigorated and kept up.
Guo Laofeng raised the iron spear and pulled a big gun flower in the air, "Young Guard, advance!" The 2nd Division also kept up with the 1st Division in front.
Thorpe's eyes contracted, and for the first time, he saw the foot soldiers charging towards the cavalry. (To be continued)
