Chapter 230: Battle of the Yellow Nest (1)
The sergeants of the puppet Qi army are moving forward, and they are all self-formed in a proper manner. In the old camp, there is also a gallop road for the cavalry to counterattack, which is wide and smooth. The loess was sprinkled with water. The war horses galloped by, and there was no dust. In this old camp, they all have to walk on thin ice, and they are almost all born here.
Many small battalions next to the big camp of the puppet Qi army have become foils in comparison, that is, the wall of Chenzhou City does not seem to be as tall as the wall of the big camp, and the surrounding small camps are just cramped and curled up in one place. The camp is set off so magnificently, this big camp in Huangchao has a cave in it, and the palace layout is complete, and it is like a palace.
At this time, at the highest place of the palace, above the stands, Huang Chao had a long beard and a beard, looking at the battle in front of the camp seriously.
Fang Wenchong led 40,000 Song Zhou Yingtian army to be listed in front of the Huangchao camp, Huangchao started with martial arts, at first glance saw that the Tang army was so proud, and did not defend according to the village, so it was natural to line up to meet the enemy.
Huang Chao single-handedly founded the Great Qi regime, almost ended Tang Zuo, his heavy generals were not hundreds, and the 100,000 army was unfolded in an instant, the Great Qi general Gai Hong, Zhao Zhang and others personally commanded the troops, and Huang Chao's nephew Lin Yan led Huang Chao's personal guard to control the crane army to suppress the overseers.
Duan Mingyu and the Seventh Prince were naturally watching the enemy's formation in the middle and rear camps of the Yingtian Army, Duan Mingyu bowed to the Seventh Prince: "The enemy is outnumbered, the odds of victory are few, and it is the fault of the subordinates to take this risk, but there is an accident later, please move the prince to avoid it for a while!"
The Seventh Prince sighed, and when he was saying a few words of comfort, he heard the war drums already beating, and the various flags of the Ying Heavenly Army flew up and down, and various formations slowly turned.
Later, two teams of fierce infantry warriors wearing heavy armor collided at first glance, and even the screams of the earth-shattering battle were stagnant, and between heaven and earth, at this moment, it seemed that they were quiet for a moment. Then all kinds of shouts, fights, shouts, and screams burst out doubly!
Even in the era of cold weapons, the two sides fought in formation, hedged against each other, and engaged in hand-to-hand combat for one life, which was not the mainstream of a battle. When it comes to this part, it is often ready to be finalized.
The reason is not complicated, this kind of body in the formation, must not toss and turn, must not dodge and retreat, can only carry out the most brutal life-for-life short-range combat. In any era, a warrior who is not chosen by Jīng, or who has undergone severe training, has to do it as a last resort.
The two armies will fight, needless to say, the disparity between strength and weakness is huge. If the forces are evenly matched, it will not be easy to fight a battle. The first thing for both sides to do is to stabilize their camps. Defend your supply lines. There is food to eat. Hold your ground. Then consider finding the enemy and attacking it.
The means that can be used are adapted to local conditions. The cavalry is mostly a large number of light cavalry, compressing the opponent's activity space. It is better to compress the other party tightly in the camp, and it is difficult to replenish and draw water. The range of movement of the cavalry can be expanded, so consider cutting off the opponent's grain route. All in all, try to limit the other party's initiative.
If you can't limit the other party, then consider other means to take the initiative. Or they will save the enemy, lure the enemy out of the solid camp and fortress, and make a surprise attack on the march. Or it is to show the enemy weakness and induce the opponent to divide his troops. Strike in the gap.
It can neither be restrained nor mobilized. I can't find any flaws, I can't find any cheapness. As long as there is a choice, a qualified coach is likely to choose not to play, or to go deep and high, or simply to lead troops to avoid it. Waiting for a better opportunity.
The real main forces of the two armies are taken out, fighting against each other and fighting for their lives, that is, there is no better choice for both sides.
In the era of cold weapons, the ability to organize and mobilize was far inferior to that of later generations. Needless to say, the rogue is coerced. The armed establishment is tens of thousands or even tens of thousands of soldiers, supplemented by how many auxiliary soldiers and civilians. Equipped with sufficient military equipment for carriages and horses. Is it that easy? A hard-fought battle is the death of thousands of human beings, with the degree of organization that an agrarian society can achieve. With such a loss, the entire army will be severely damaged and will not be able to recover easily. Human life is human life after all, let alone an army that was organized with great difficulty. thinks that fighting a war is to fight for people's lives, that is mediocre and handsome. Morale will not be attached.
On the contrary, in the modern nation-state and even in the later era of industrialization, with the improvement of the degree of social organization, it was possible to organize a steady stream of military replenishment before the human resources were exhausted. This kind of desperate war scene has become the mainstream of war, especially in the two world wars.
A well-known Three Kingdoms, the battle between the two armies is a deep ditch and a high fortress at every turn, and it is a stalemate at every turn, and the last side retreats with all food. The real hard-fought battles are just a few. And they often die thousands of lives in each of them, leading their troops to retreat, and each of them goes to his wounds.
In the middle of a battle. It is even more difficult for the two sides to meet the hand-to-hand combat. More commonly, both sides test each other's weaknesses and maximize the long-range lethality of the crossbow. Use cavalry to disrupt the opponent, mobilize the opponent, and after discovering the opponent's weakness, throw jīng to attack it sharply, and strive to defeat the enemy in one fell swoop.
The two sides marched in formation, colliding fiercely, fighting one life for another. Rely on desperate efforts to beat the other party to collapse. Such a war scene, even in a hundred, it is rare to have one!
And before the walled fort, although it was larger, it should have been done seriously. But since Duan Mingyu established the army, it has always been such a fighting scene, the young man is angry, and Huang Chao has also been defeated all the way to this point, even Chen Zhou has been bitten for so long, and a fledgling feudal town also dares to show off his might in the hands of my Huang Chao, what is this not death?
The two sides were dressed in armor and rushed upward, and in the narrow front, it was almost a bloody battle of one life for another. The armor soldiers on both sides are rapidly consuming, and they are gritting their teeth and fighting to the death, and under the leadership of the commanders of both sides, the dead are pouring in one batch after another. Such bloody and brutal, not seen in decades. Don't say that you are sideways, you can look at it from a distance, and you will feel bold!
The puppet Qi army is also really strong, the combat power value is full, and there is a temporary advantage in numbers, after the Ying Tian army stabilized the position for a while, it cut the formation in half.
At this time, the formation had been broken, and it could no longer be maintained.
Fang Wenchong ordered loudly: "Generals from all walks of life, leading their own horses and horses, fight around the Chinese army, they must not retreat, and those who violate the order will be killed!"
Duan Mingyu watched as a group of Yingtian Army armor soldiers rushed past him, shouting and throwing into the killing field. The smell of blood was already so thick that people couldn't breathe. The sound of the blade breaking through the flesh was connected together, and then mixed with the curses and screams of the armor soldiers on both sides, it reverberated and roared in the ears.
The war is fierce, and there is nothing more than this!
