Chapter 8 Who Goes and Who Stays?
Wu Anguo guessed correctly.
The Yuan army does have a backhand, and these Yuan troops who have come out now don't know how long they have been in ambush, and the other reinforcements that appeared before have not lured them out.
But Zhang Yan and the others had just arrived, and they came out of nowhere.
Moreover, the direction of their ambush was just waiting for half of Zhang Yan's Black Mountain Army to reach Beihai County, and the other half was still bypassing the mountain range, and they didn't know what situation they had encountered, and they had no way to get Zhang Yan's instructions, and there was no way to calm down.
The ambush soldiers on this mountain were like gods descending from the earth, and they slammed into the waist of the Black Mountain army.
It is to divide the formation of the entire Montenegrin army, this team does not seem to be particularly numerous, but it is particularly impactful.
Although Zhang Yan had no way to look closely, he knew it when he saw the spear flying in the crowd and the whitish emanation.
This style is also the fighting style of the famous Hebei general Han Heng.
He is not young anymore, and he can be regarded as a veteran, but his first-hand pistol skills are still like a dragon, and he is still very stable on the battlefield.
Zhang Yan has fought with him and understands his style, so this state is still easy to identify.
Han Heng is indeed a good hand at leading cavalry, and this batch of cavalry is the heavy cavalry that Yuan Shao asked Han Heng to personally train, and the equipment and resources that they scavenged after arriving in Qingzhou that can pile up heavy cavalry are all invested in this team, even if it is Yan Liang, they are only with light cavalry.
Han Heng is dedicated to special personnel, and his heavy cavalry is specially trained for the Montenegrin Army.
Having said that, it's actually obvious now.
The Yuan army is actually an enemy-driven army, and their special forces are established only when there are real enemies.
This is not quite the same as that of Liu Bei's camp.
Chen Chen asked them to set up a special force in order to be able to fully cover and plug and play, which may be a strategic gap.
But the problem is that the heavy cavalry team led by Han Heng now, although there are only more than 1,000 people, but they rushed down from the mountain and directly hit the weak point of the Montenegrin army.
It's like tofu, and it crumbles when you touch it.
The idea of this heavy cavalry was not simply to rush once, Han Heng took this heavy cavalry to come and go in the Black Mountain Army, like a brutal chariot, knocking the Black Mountain soldiers in weak armor into the air.
Zhang Yan's eyes burst when he saw it.
This is simply a-stirring stick, directly reducing the momentum and lineup of the entire Montenegrin Army to a minimum.
Moreover, the current situation is completely unfavorable to our side.
In front of the Black Mountain Army, it was Yan Liangwen Chou, who rushed towards Zhang Yan, and the main force of the Yuan Army went straight to Zhang Yan's front army.
The heavy cavalry commanded by Han Heng directly cut off the long formation of the Montenegrin Army, and the Montenegrin Army behind directly lost its command at the highest level, but fortunately, some of the people in the rear were also from Liu Bei's camp, they were quite smart, gathered their subordinates, retreated slightly, and some retreated directly to the mountain.
Because if the position of the mountain is changed, the heavy cavalry will still have a lot of obstacles if they want to charge up the mountain with woods.
In this way, they can be regarded as able to preserve a little strength.
But the rear army was easy to evacuate, but Zhang Yan's front army was surrounded.
The ambush soldiers set up by Fu Zhi were not only Han Heng and their heavy cavalry, but also another group of Yuan troops came from the other side, most of these Yuan troops were foot soldiers, led by Gao Ran.
Surrounded on three sides in this way, coupled with the mountain on the other side, Zhang Yan suddenly fell into a heavy encirclement from no one around.
"Senior brother, let's withdraw."
Zhang Yan said to Guan Hai beside him, he felt that he couldn't stay here anymore at this time.
"If you don't leave a few people, you can't remove them."
Guan Hai frowned and stared at Yan Liangwen Chou, who rushed over, he knew that today's trap, if no one broke the rear, it was estimated that the entire front army would not be able to withdraw.
When Guan Hai said it, Zhang Yan also understood what Guan Hai meant, but who did he want to stay?
Now in this scene, it is almost certain that if it stays, it will be a dead end.
The one who stays is giving his life to another.
Zhang Yan is not very willing to stay, because his dream has not yet come true, but Guan Hai, the senior brother, although they have stayed together since they came to Qingzhou, but if there is really any deep friendship, in fact, there is no one, more just a cooperative relationship.
In this case, who leaves and who stays is really not a matter that can be easily discussed.
Guan Hai saw the worry and entanglement in Zhang Yan's eyebrows.
He has been on the rivers and lakes for a longer time.
He doesn't have the good luck of Zhang Yan, he has the achievements and support of Zhang Niujiao, and he doesn't have a good stronghold like the Montenegrin Army to develop well.
Since Guan Hai took his brothers to Qingzhou, he has been wandering everywhere, struggling to survive, and with the increasing population, they have not lived better, but because after the population has increased, the pressure on life has increased, the logistical pressure is greater, and life is not as good as before.
It can be said that Zhang Yan is the second generation who inherited the family business, but Guan Hai started from scratch empty-handed.
Therefore, Guan Hai has seen many more rivers and lakes, people's hearts, and scenery than Zhang Yan.
He is actually very pleased, at least his little junior brother did not directly leave himself behind and let himself be broken, but was entangled.
Just thinking that he will be entangled in this point shows that his heart is still simpler.
After so many years, he can be regarded as living a similar life, and it is obvious that after the Montenegrin Army came to Qingzhou, the style of regularity it showed made Guan Hai feel very relieved.
He felt that Zhang Yan couldn't die, especially after Zhang Yan had described to him his dream of establishing an earthly Taoist kingdom in Qingzhou.
Guan Hai was even more convinced that Zhang Yan couldn't die.
Because he is already the last spark of the Taiping Sect's ideals.
Because he understands, Guan Hai knows that a weathered person like himself will lose the courage to realize his dream, and a more naïve person like his junior brother Zhang Yan may have the courage to attack the impossible dream.
"I'll cut it off."
Guan Hai suddenly smiled.
patted Zhang Yan on the shoulder, raised the big knife in his hand, and pointed at Yan Liangwen Chou.
"I haven't fought against a general like them."
Guan Hai smiled frankly.
"A nobody like me, maybe the most famous moment in my whole life is the moment when I fight these famous players, right?"
"You take someone to retreat quickly, maybe I can still wear two and make a big name."
Guan Hai grinned, as if he could really cut Yan Liangwen off the horse, he even showed his big yellow teeth, and smiled rustically, at this moment, he seemed to be an ordinary farmer, carrying a hoe in the hope of a good harvest this year.
Zhang Yan's lips trembled for a moment.
He didn't expect Guan Hai to make this difficult choice decision like this.
And so calmly.
It was as if he didn't see the danger.
In such a comparison, he inevitably felt guilty in his heart, and he even had the urge to stay and face Yan Liangwen and Chouhou with Guan Hai, but reason told him that in this chaotic situation, it was just a matter of giving it for nothing.
He was silent for a moment, not knowing what to say, and the goodbye at this time almost meant goodbye.
At the moment of farewell, nothing can be said.
Feelings?
In fact, it was really not deep, but Zhang Yan still felt a throbbing.
Ideal?
Zhang Yan was a little confused, he failed so much, could he really establish an earthly Taoist country?
"Let's go, or I'll be left in vain, remember, I'm waiting for you to build the earthly kingdom and get in touch with me in the sky."
Guan Hai winked at Zhang Yan, clamped the horse's belly, and greeted Yan Liangwen.
He's so carefree.
He doesn't have any relatives, he doesn't have any concerns, and if his people have the management of the middle-level officers under Zhang Yan's subordinates, they should be able to live a much better life than when he brought it with him, so he has no regrets.
Guan Hai had endured too much pressure and responsibility before, even if he was out of breath, he still had to climb with hundreds of thousands of Qingzhou yellow scarves to continue to die.
Now that you have such an opportunity to be able to free yourself easily, and you don't have to worry about the future, why not?
