Chapter 467. Inferior vs. long
Fortunately, the battle of the water did not happen in this era! Otherwise, even if it is taboo, Liu Yi will have to ask for a crack in the wall, not to retreat back, and to make room for Wang Hou to land!
But this is the welfare of the traverser, and the two main generals on the other side of the river don't know about the battle of the water! Because Hahu's shouting order sounded on the bank of the Dongni River again, pulling out the big flag planted on the ground, or because the battlefield was not spacious enough and the Yanliao army that was thickly piled up on the riverbank slowly retreated for the second time, and the rice fields full of footprints and the cement aqueduct were slowly exposed again.
The Dongni River is not wide, only a few meters, and the water depth is only knee-deep, but the water is fast and turbulent, and the river water of this level is enough to cause fatal stagnation to the slowly marching heavy infantry, as the Yanliao army retreated, the Qingzhou heavy infantry in the front row was ordered by their respective commanders, arranged in a whole row, and went down into the water neatly.
Looking at the Qingzhou soldiers who were washed by the river, their boots stepped in the river mud, and they were struggling to pounce forward, Gongsun couldn't help but show an evil smile.
Even rookie generals who have just entered the industry know that when an army is at its weakest, march, and cross the river! Wang Hou's troops were absolutely weak, and he actually took the initiative to cross the river to attack him, Gongsun Zhi looked at Wang Hou's military banner at this time, as if he was looking at a stupid fork whose head was caught by the door.
However, the proud Liaodong commander Gongsun Zhi had a pair of eyes completely fixed on the Liaodong heavy infantry moving slowly on the other side of the river, and excitedly stood on his chariot and paced back and forth, anxiously waiting for Wang Houjun to cross most of the time, and then attack fiercely.
However, the excited Liaodong commander didn't notice that the frequent military transfers were still the most difficult retreat in place, and the Yanliao army composed of family soldiers and tribal soldiers also began to scatter, some soldiers walked backwards directly in a daze, and some turned around and left, of different sizes, and the Liao soldiers who finally gathered into a formation were pulled into various strange and evil shapes.
The rear of the Yan Liao army spread out little by little like bread soaked in water.
The first row of heavy infantry dragged their feet full of mud and stepped on the north bank, only a dozen meters away, the Yan Liao army in the first row was like a werewolf who smelled blood, his sturdy body leaned forward, his hand held the spear tightly, his breathing gradually changed, and a pair of double pupils flashed bloodthirsty eyes.
But this moment.
Gongsun Zhi and Liu Yi turned around suddenly!
…………
In the battle of Weishui, Fu Jian was not only defeated in arrogance, he also lost to his huge army, 900,000 former Qin troops covered the sky and the sun, overwhelming, and according to Wang Hou's understanding of the army in this era, the number of 900,000 people even if it was not filled with water, it had to be mixed with at least more than 500,000 baggage troops, and there were only 300,000 soldiers who could really fight.
Imagine, in the crowd that covered the sky and the sun, the front army suddenly retreated sharply, trampling on the dust of the sky, and there were bursts of shouts around him shouting that the Qin army was defeated, how much fighting spirit would the people in the rear team who had not undergone much military training and were even forcibly conscripted? And under the chain reaction, the rear army was dense enough to cover the earth, and the baggage soldiers suddenly cried and scattered in all directions, how shocking it was to the front army that was fighting.
In this way, this huge army, which may even be considered the largest in ancient military history, disappeared.
But the Gongsun family army does not have this situation, there are a lot of dry goods, the light infantry corps is not mixed with many heavy auxiliary troops, and more importantly, it is less than 50,000, which is not as large and difficult to dispatch as the Fu Jian corps, even if the front army retreats, the rear army knows what it is doing.
So Wang Hou didn't waste that lung capacity to shout that Gongsun thief was defeated, and the sea control was in his own hands, and he directly inserted a force behind the Yanliao army! The Yuwen Department of the Xianbei people.
For the Xianbei people, Wang Hou didn't even believe in their farts, he was not in Jinzhou, and he didn't even doubt that these free nomadic robbers would snatch their own votes, so when he returned to Liaodong, he did not hesitate to recruit the strong soldiers in the Yuwen Department and all the nobles more than 2,000 people.
In the past few days, the Xianbei people have not had a good time, just like the black slaves who were trafficked by the Americans, they went directly to the cabin, even if the nomads were used to staying with the horses, the smell of the cabin was not good, fortunately, Wang Hou ordered that the water of the whole army must be boiled, even these Xianbei people are no exception, otherwise, I am afraid that the disease would have broken out long ago.
So the anger that Xianbei people are holding back can be imagined!
In the famous Battle of Borodino between Napoleon the Great and Tsarist Russia, the Great was attacked by the Russian Cossack light cavalry, crushed the two French regiments behind him, and fought Napoleon for more than four hours.
Although the time difference is more than 1,000 years, the Xianbei cavalry is obviously not much worse than the Cossack cavalry, just when a scattered group of sergeants of the rear army of the Yanliao Army was still watching the excitement, suddenly, the violent sound of horses' hooves sounded behind them, and after looking back, these ghost fire boys in the late Han Dynasty had already driven their motorcycles and rushed to the front.
Wang Hou is also not sure whether it is right or wrong to drag them into this war, the cavalry tactics that shine in the five chaotic northern and southern dynasties of China have been practiced by the Yuwen Department again, and the lethality of the wooden spear one meter short may be limited to the Qingzhou heavy infantry, but the Yanliao light infantry representing the vast majority of the infantry is full of lethality, and when he turned around, the cavalry spears in both hands had been stabbed over, and in the sound of poofing, like locusts hunted by swallows, one by one Goguryeo, Fuyu, and Han people in Liaodong were pierced to the ground.
The screams came and went!
The fighter plane was in an instant, and the screams and shouts behind it made the Yan Liao army of the front army also subconsciously look back in amazement, waiting for now, among the Qingzhou heavy infantry who had just landed in two rows, a guy wrapped like bread suddenly raised the battle knife in his hand and roared loudly, and in the next second, the heavy infantry with axes and guns was also like a small land tank, and the armor rushed forward fiercely.
Now the Qingzhou army ashore is not even a thousand people, who would have thought that they would dare to charge at the enemy army dozens of times their size, Yan Liaojun reacted again too late, frightened to listen to the footsteps and turned around, puff sound, chest cold, the sergeant in the front row throbbed and trembled and lowered his head, blackened eyes, only saw the broad axe blade that was half submerged in his chest.
Puff...... The spear was separated from the body and brought out large strands of blood.
Thump...... Hundreds of pounds of Liaoye men were like sacks full of sand, lying on the ground with blood!
