Chapter 394, Breaking the Array 2
At the same time, he ordered the gate to be hidden, and all the soldiers guarding the gate returned to the dark place to ambush.
Shi Kefa arranged it this way to let the Qin army know that he had been ambushed, so that the Qin army would not attack the camp to the death, because there were only 3,000 infantry in his camp. [No pop-ups. There are almost all the books I want to read.,It's much more stable than the general station, and it's updated faster.,There's no ads in the whole text.。 790,000 can't withstand tens of thousands of Qin cavalry.
As long as the Qin army finds out that it has been fooled and retreats back, it will fall into the encirclement of Wei Baichuan. At that time, 30,000 officers and troops could attack from all sides and defeat the Qin army.
The cannon was lit in the official barracks, and the men and horses poured out, and Li dared to know the plan, and did not dare to attack forward, so he led the men and horses to retreat. Wang Jian in the back had already heard the sound of cannons, he frowned slightly, and secretly shouted in his heart, could it be that the official army already knew that the Qin army was coming, otherwise, Li Dang had not yet entered the enemy camp, why did the official army have so many cannon sounds
Wang Jian was so anxious that he immediately waved his army and rushed forward, and soon met Li Kang's men and horses, and at this time, the officers and troops who were ambushed around him were also killed under the leadership of Wei Baichuan.
There were more than 30,000 people in Jingbian City, Wei Baichuan left 2,000 people to defend the city, 3,000 people in the camp, and the remaining nearly 30,000 people, all of whom were ambushed outside the city, and they were more than ten miles away from the city, far away from the main road.79 The Qin army did not find it. At this time, Wei Baichuan gave an order, and the whole army heard the sound of trumpets and cannons, and immediately heard the sound and rose up, surrounding the Qin army from four directions, the shouts were earth-shattering, and the four roads of men and horses were killed together.
At this time, Wang Qian's heart was already bright. He immediately thought that the information that Yizhimei inquired about was very likely to be deliberately obtained by the official army, in order to deceive the Qin army, and the official army did not go out of the fortress to fight the Mongols at all, but set up a siege and waited for the Qin army to take the bait.
At the critical moment, Wang Jian was not afraid of danger, he drank the horses and horses quickly formed a defensive formation, occupied the favorable terrain at the high slope, and began to defend it, he and Li Dang rode up to the highest point of the high slope and looked around.
I saw a fire on all sides, and countless torches formed four giant dragons, pressing on the Qin army in all directions, judging from the density of the torches, there were at least tens of thousands of officers and soldiers. Moreover, the torches in front of them moved very quickly, and at a glance it was clear that it was also cavalry.
Wang Jian knew that in such a dark night, once the men and horses were scattered, they would fall into a heavy encirclement, be broken by the enemy, and finally be completely annihilated.
At this time, the ability of the famous player can be best shown.
The so-called famous generals are not leading superior forces and winning many battles, but in unfavorable situations, they can still save themselves, even if they can't turn defeat into victory, at least they can withstand the attack of superior enemies and retreat calmly.
Wang Jian is just a famous general.
Seeing the besieged by the officers and troops from all sides, Wang Jian sat on horseback, his expression was calm, and he ordered: "General Li Kang, you take the vanguard battalion and immediately attack the enemy in the south, and you must give the enemy in front of you a dismount and break through a gap." ”
Li dared to agree, and he immediately understood that this was Wang Jian who wanted to strike first, and his surprise attack must be extremely ruthless and fierce to scare the officials and soldiers.
Wang Jian is constantly calculating in his heart, at this time the official army is undoubtedly dominant, the other party has many people, has surrounded themselves, and at night, the other party is very familiar with the terrain, but the Qin army is a newcomer, not familiar with the terrain, therefore, the time and place are on the side of the official army, and the only thing he can rely on is people. That was the combat advantage of the Qin army.
In this case, it is taboo for people and horses to crowd together, and the other party will shoot a lot of people when the arrow rain comes, so if there is another general, it will definitely divide the troops in four directions and break through separately. But Wang Jian didn't do this, he knew that his troops were already small, and if they were divided into several routes, the troops would be even less, so that each Qin army would have to face the superior strength of the official army.
Wang Jian must not let the Qin army fall into such a predicament. His combat principle has always been to strike at the enemy's weakest points with the greatest force, and then intersperse and advance to completely dominate the enemy. This was very prominent in the battle to destroy Chu in his previous life.
At that time, Wang Jian led an army of 600,000 people, and he didn't move, no matter how Xiang Yan, the general of Chu State challenged, he just didn't come out, and after a year, the defense line of the Chu army changed, and he took the opportunity to take advantage of the gap to advance and break the Chu soldiers.
At present, the Qin army is far less than the official army, Wang Jian naturally does not do stupid things, he sent Li Kang, calculated in his heart, and ordered all the Qin troops to follow closely behind Li Kang and break through to the south with all his might.
Wang Jian felt that at this time, there were still infantry coming from the south, and it would be much easier to break through in this direction.
At the sound of the order, the whole army immediately started and killed the officers and troops in the south.
The officers and troops in the south were led by the deputy general Li, and when he saw that the Qin army had completely fallen into the encirclement, he was also very excited, thinking that the meritorious service was rewarded, and it was in front of him, so he rushed up with men and horses, and Wei Baichuan also thought that this direction might be violently attacked by the Qin army when arranging his troops, so he gave Vice General Li 10,000 horses, including 6,000 cavalry and 4,000 infantry;.
Adjutant General Li waved his army forward and was meeting Li Kang.
The officer and army led the team to rush forward, is a thousand general, his two commanders are very brave, each with a spear in their hands, is rushing vigorously, seeing a team of Qin troops rushing in, do not show weakness, wave the people and horses, and stop head-on.
The two teams collided head-on, and many people were knocked off their horses, and immediately one of them turned over on their backs.
Li Dang held a long knife in his hand, saw these two generals, came to the two of them on a vertical horse, and chopped with a knife. Together, the two of them speared Li Kang's knife, and as soon as one of them shouted, the spear stabbed. Li Dang turned around on his horse like lightning, and the spear grazed his ribs, the tip of the spear and the iron armor grazed a spark.
Li Dang clamped the spear shaft with his arm, twisted his body, and broke the spear shaft with a bang. The weapon was always missing, and there was only a piece of wooden stick left in his hand, and he was taken aback, and just pulled out the waist knife from under his ribs, Li Dang's other hand had already returned to the long knife, and a knife stabbed into his front heart.
Another general saw that Li Dang was so powerful, he didn't dare to slack off, the spear in his hand was like a spirit snake dancing, and Li Dang fought together, less than three rounds, when the two horses were staggered, Li Dang pulled out the iron whip on his back, and with a backhand whip, he was pumping on the heart shield on his back.
The goggles immediately shattered into several pieces, and the one was beaten to the point of vomiting blood, lying on the saddle, and walking away.
Li Dang rushed forward on horseback, led 3,000 iron cavalry and 10,000 officers and troops to the south, and started a melee battle.
The Qin army in the back, under the command of Wang Qian, also killed together. 10,000 cavalry of the Qin army, with hundreds of iron horses in front, holding spears and halberds, desperately stamped and rushed, the men and horses of the deputy general Li are also the division of a hundred battles, and the number of officers and soldiers is superior, full of confidence, Vice General Li shouted loudly: "Block me, block, if you dare to take a step back, you will be killed." Kill one enemy and advance to one level. ”
His own soldiers also shouted in unison: "Kill one enemy, and be promoted to one level"
When the officers and soldiers heard this, they immediately came to their senses, and desperately rushed upward, fighting with the Qin army. At the intersection of the two armies, thousands of people gathered, horse to horse, swords and guns indiscriminately, almost no rules, that is, you cut me, I stab you, whoever is knocked off the horse, the people behind immediately make up the reads;
It didn't take long for the officers and troops from the other three directions to rush up, and Wang Jian ordered the two wings and rear teams of the army to engage the officers and troops in battle, and not to retreat, let alone let the officers and troops rush through the mouth and disrupt the camp.
So the two wings of the Qin army and the rear army also exchanged hands with the official army, tens of thousands of horses on both sides gathered in one place, the sound of swords and guns colliding was more intense than the dense rain, and the blood that burst out was like heavy rain, wetting the ground.
Wang Jian could see that if the Qin army was trapped by the official army, it would not be able to break out of the encirclement, so he ordered Li Kang to clash violently and be sure to break through the gap.
This is a death order, Li Dare received the military order, knowing that the time for desperate efforts has come, he can be used to fighting among the generals, the most fierce warriors selected three hundred people, let these three hundred people wear iron helmets, only show their eyes, wear two layers of armor, he himself is also dressed, stepping off the war horse also covered his body with thick leather armor, only four horse hooves are exposed, and simply formed a heavy cavalry of three hundred people.
There was a sudden shout in the Qin army's formation, and the people in front retreated, and Li Kang's three hundred heavily armored cavalry suddenly came up. Three hundred people lined up in three teams, pulling the hammer and attacking wildly. Those hammers were four feet long, and the hammer head weighed about ten catties, and no matter what kind of shield they had, they couldn't stop it, and the wooden shields of the officers and soldiers were smashed into pieces of wood and replaced with iron shields, but the person who took the shield was shocked by the hammer, and either his arm was broken, or his arm was sore, and he could no longer hold the shield.
The officers and soldiers fired arrows in unison, but the three hundred people of the Qin army were all dressed in two layers of iron armor, and the feather arrows could not be shot at all, and they wanted to shoot the horses, but the war horses were covered by thick leather, and they could not hurt the slightest, and the officers and soldiers did not know how to resist for a while, and the camp was immediately in chaos.
Li Dang was overjoyed when he saw it, commanded three hundred iron cavalry, clashed violently, and knocked down the enemy troops in front of him one after another, and the officers and troops behind saw that the momentum of the Qin army was too fierce, and they did not dare to volley head-on, and they all retreated, giving way to make way.
Wang Jian saw clearly behind him, urged the people, followed Li Kang, and rushed forward.
Wei Baichuan could see clearly from a distance, and when he saw that the Qin army was about to break through the encirclement, he was also anxious, he didn't expect the combat effectiveness of the Qin army to be so strong, he had only fought a few battles with the peasant army before, and compared to the Qin army, those peasant armies were really worlds apart. In other words, after falling into a heavy encirclement, it will either be crushed and dispersed to break through, or it will be held in one place, but the Qin army is different, the whole army is condensed into a powerful iron fist, where it is smashed, it will be smashed, and if it continues like this, his men and horses will not be able to contain the Qin army.
