Chapter 81: Flanking Attack
The fall of Guangzhou City is something that Duan Chong imagined, of course, if there is no bomb, a weapon that should not exist in this world, Duan Chong wants to capture Guangzhou City, it cannot be said that it is a fool's dream, but I am afraid that the price paid is much greater than in front of him, and in this siege battle, the entire Dali army lost less than two hundred people, I am afraid that the soldiers who lost their combat effectiveness because of the water and soil on the way are more than that. Although as long as the soldiers in this city surrender, Duan Chong will not be killed, but the officials left by the Governor of Liangguang Diao Bin, Duan Chong will not be left, because as long as these people exist, the news may leak out, and it is possible to instigate a rebellion in the city.
Duan Chong didn't have much time, so after pacifying the city of Guangzhou, he left 5,000 Dali soldiers to guard the city of Guangzhou, and the zongzi was also left in case there was any special situation, Duan Chong personally led the rest of the 10,000 soldiers out of Guangzhou City at noon, and directly followed the official road to chase the troops of the Governor of Liangguang Diao Bin, this time if General Ying Haiying's side did not make any mistakes, it should form a flanking situation, 30,000 horses and horses to attack the 20,000 horses of the Governor of Liangguang Diao Bin, There should be no mistakes, after all, the army led by this heavy army to fight Dali is definitely a strange soldier, even if the second prince of Xiao Beiding is smart, he did not expect Duan Chong to dare to lead these fifteen thousand people to capture the city of Guangzhou, and even if General Ying Haiying withdraws, the second prince of Xiao Beiding will definitely not dare to advance rashly, after all, if the second prince of Xiao Beiding is confronted, he will definitely not be able to defeat it.
And in this flank battle, the most important problem that Duan Chong needs to solve is that he must not catch up with the troops of the two Governor Diao Bin too quickly, only after General Ying Haiying's troops and Diao Bin's troops encounter, his own side will attack from the rear, so that he can achieve the best results with the smallest casualties among the Dali soldiers, after all, Duan Zhong is reluctant to let his Dali soldiers suffer casualties, this kind of desperate matter, or leave it to General Ying Haiying and the soldiers of Nanliang! It is precisely because of this that Duan Chong made the zongzi full of "poisonous daggers" along the official road, and it was necessary to pass on the progress of Lord Diao Bin's troops as soon as possible.
So along the way, Duan Chong led the 15,000 Dali soldiers behind him to move forward quickly, but never met the troops led by the two Guang Governors Diao Bin, until three days later, Duan Chong suddenly received the news from the "poison dagger", five hours ago, the troops of the two Guang Governors Diao Bin and Ying Haiying's soldiers and horses were only more than 100 miles apart, Duan Zhong immediately ordered a group of soldiers to rush forward, and finally caught up with the troops of the Liangguang Governor Diao Bin half a day later, and at this time, The official road that was originally used to travel has become a Shura battlefield, blood is overflowing, and the sound of shouting and killing is all over the sky, and the 20,000 horses under the command of General Ying Haiying and the 20,000 troops and horses of Diao Bin, the governor of Liangguang, have been fighting together for more than two hours, and the corpses have been piled up into a mountain, but they still don't know which side has the advantage.
This official road is originally extremely narrow, so once the war starts, only a little width above the official road, and the dense forests on both sides of the road can make people fight, plus the terrain of these two wide areas is originally rugged, and the official road is also zigzag all the way to extend, so the confrontation between the two armies is extremely narrow, only when the soldiers in front of them fall, the soldiers behind can make up for it and continue to fight, the front is in full swing, and the rear can only wave the flag and shout in a hurry, but it is not much worse than the situation encountered by the two armies in the canyon, Therefore, Duan Chong's army came up from the rear, completely like making dumplings, and General Ying Haiying's troops cooperated with each other, constantly squeezing inward, and there was no room to dodge at all, so this battle was destined to be a war of annihilation, and this Diao Bin's army had no way to escape at all, and the only way was that this official road had already been blocked.
Therefore, Duan Chong seemed to arrive with his troops, so he took the lead in shouting and taking the lead in rushing into the enemy formation with his sword, and as soon as Duan Chong shouted like this, the voices of the 10,000 Dali soldiers behind him suddenly resounded through the sky, and General Ying Haiying must have known that Duan Chong's army had arrived, and the soldiers of Nanliang fought more vigorously.
Duan Chong rushed to the front first, but he took out the explosives and flint from his arms, and directly lit it and threw it forward, and the bomb fell into the army of the two Guang soldiers in a perfect parabola, only to hear a loud "boom", the bomb exploded in the army, and the Dali soldiers who were originally holding knives and guns to prepare for the battle were suddenly blown up to the flesh and blood, and their limbs were torn apart.
Duan Zhong naturally knows the truth that killing the enemy is the first to break the guts. Although Duan Zhong was reluctant to let the power of the bomb be announced, the soldiers of Dali already knew about the existence of the bomb, and the soldiers of Liangguang who saw the explosion definitely did not have the possibility of living to say it, General Ying Haiying's troops were fighting fiercely in front, and at most they could hear the movement but would not know what was going on, so in this way, Duan Chong could use one or two bombs with confidence, and it would be good for these two bombs to kill at most two hundred Liangguang soldiers. That was still in the current situation where the soldiers of Liangguang were tightly encircled, otherwise if they were scattered, I am afraid that these thirty or fifty people would not be able to be killed, and these two or three hundred people were just a drop in the bucket for twenty thousand people, so Duan Zhong never thought about using bombs to blow up these enemies, but it was just a magnificent scene.
With Duan Chong's martial arts cultivation, it is naturally not a problem for the army to enter and exit freely, so Duan Chong has no problem at all, and directly one person and one horse will step forward with a sword, and the 10,000 Dali soldiers behind him are also close behind, killing monstrous, and the road above this official road is extremely narrow, Duan Chong's one person and one horse have almost occupied one-third of the road, if it is moving vertically and horizontally, Duan Chong can basically sweep the two Guang soldiers on the entire official road, Duan Chong's sword qi is closed, where the long sword is waved, All of them landed on the ground, and the heads of these two Guang soldiers were harvested by Duan Chong like leeks, and no one was Duan Chong's enemy at all.
Duan Chong's swordsmanship is a murderous swordsmanship, once it is stained with blood, it will become more and more courageous, so a few times to rush down, even a pile of people can not stop Duan Chong's footsteps, this heavy is like a killing god, fixed at the front of the team, like a sharp knife to the depth, no one can stop at all, this Dali soldiers who follow behind can only pick up Duan Chong's killing of the fish that slipped through the net, there is no challenge at all, and there are many Hun Dali soldiers who are directly dumbfounded, Even the soldiers of Liangguang rushed to him without finding it, and gave him his life in vain.
Duan Zhong's martial arts master is definitely a terrible meat grinder for war, especially in this situation where there is no threat of bows and arrows and hidden weapons, Duan Zhong can completely rush and kill unscrupulously, every sword is stained with the blood of the enemy, and the murderous heart in his heart is getting stronger and stronger.
The last time Duan Chong had countless blood on his hands, it was traced back to the time when he was on the Hun grassland, but at that time, because the Hun cavalry was brave and good at fighting, and the terrain on the grassland was open, it was definitely better to let Duan Chong wantonly kill like today, and in life, it was enough to have such a hearty fight.
This war, from noon to dusk, the number of 20,000 is extremely huge, even in front of Duan Chong, I am afraid that it will not be able to kill it in a day and a night, not to mention on the narrow road, and in a whole afternoon, Duan Chong's hands are stained with the blood of two or three thousand people, Duan Chong at this moment is completely red-eyed, he doesn't know what tiredness is, and he even regarded this torture as a vent, and completely vented all the dissatisfaction, grievances and resentments in the past few years. So when the last Liangguang soldier fell under Duan Chong's sword, General Ying Haiying, who was rushing to the front, looked at Duan Chong's blood-red eyes like Shura, and was actually frightened, and took many steps back, if Duan Chong kept fighting like this, I am afraid it would come to the point where there was no distinction between the enemy and me, fortunately, Duan Chong grew up reciting Buddhist scriptures since he was a child, and after Zongzi came to Duan Chong's side, he also recited Buddhist scriptures in Duan Chong's ears every day, so he did not lose his mind at the last moment, and slowly regained his sanity.
And when all the killing intent on his body retreated, Duan Chong felt endless exhaustion surging up to him, his body and feet as if they were not his own, and arched his hand towards General Ying Haiying, whose eyes were full of horror in front of him, and then put the sword into the scabbard, and then his body shook, and he went down to the ground, and he was so tired that he fell asleep.
Therefore, all the soldiers saw such a scene: Duan Zhong was covered in blood, his body was lying across the official road, and he snored, and this snoring sound was really ...... Loud enough.
But the service, the 20,000 soldiers led by the governor of Liangguang were all killed, 20,000 people did not survive, the governor of Liangguang Diao Bin died in the chaos, if nothing else, it should be killed by Duan Zhong in the chaos, and the Dali soldiers lost less than 50 people, and the soldiers under General Ying Haiying lost only more than 3,000 people, which can be said to be a complete victory,
