Chapter 260: Battle Flag
The horse's hooves stepped into the barren grass, rolling smoke and dust, and two hundred cavalry charged forward, although compared to the figures fighting in the fire in front of them, their two hundred men were a little thin and weak no matter how they looked, but none of them wavered.
It is rumored that the cavalry triangle created by Bai Qi, the most famous and ruthless general of the Warring States Period, is presented in this dark wasteland, and all the cavalry raise their horse lances and keep an eye on the approaching enemy.
Although there were only 200 people, when 800 horses' hooves trampled the earth, when the figures of men and horses pierced the flames, it seemed that it was no longer 200 people, but - thousands of troops and horses!
"General, although these barbarians can't help us, they occupy the slopes on both sides, especially the slope of the left wing near Jing Mountain, which is relatively steep, with their bows and crossbows, it is not so easy for us to kill them for a while!" A battle master had blood on his face and ran quickly to Pei Zilie's side, his voice full of anxiety.
Obviously, the scorching fighting on the front line has also confused this old warlord, who is not the first time he has been on the battlefield.
Pei Zilie frowned, these Northern Zhou barbarians were not easy to deal with, and he expected that in the end, Wei Chi Hui would let their light army risk bypassing Jingshan to ambush Nan Chen's reinforcements, how could they also select the best veterans and elites in the army to carry out this task, so the enemy's thorniness was also reasonable.
However, the problem that Pei Zilie has to face now is that even if the enemy has lost the opportunity and even has to turn to hold on under the oppression of the Nan Chen army, as long as the hillsides on both sides of the road are still in their hands, the Nan Chen army will not be able to pass through the road.
"Crossbowmen take cover, don't mess with yourself at this time!" Pei Zilie's voice was worried, but he tried his best to calm down and even calm down, after all, once Pei Zilie himself was in chaos, he really had no way to ensure that the rest of the generals and soldiers could still calmly obey the order, "Pro-guard!" ”
Hearing Pei Zilie's voice, the general with the personal guards behind hurriedly stepped forward.
Pei Zilie stretched out his hand and pointed to his own right flank that was glued on the battlefield, which was also the enemy's left flank: "See, that hillside is the steepest, not to mention, it is also the highest among the surrounding hillsides, which means that as long as we can take the hillside, we will be able to overlook the entire battlefield, and take the opportunity to disrupt the enemy's left flank, which will completely cut off their retreat!" ”
After a pause, Pei Zilie lifted the knife in his hand: "So, let's go!" ”
"General!" Originally, he thought that Pei Zilie was just letting himself take the personal guards as the blade, and the general suddenly became anxious.
Several of the surrounding battle masters, army members, and generals also looked at them in surprise, and they all wanted to stop them. In their impression, although Pei Zilie is young, he has been taught by Wu Mingche and has always been steady in the use of soldiers.
And Pei Zilie did not hesitate at all, the war will never change differently because of the general's style of using troops, and the enemy will definitely not follow your command all the time, especially when the enemy is a famous general like Wei Chi Yu who has been tempered on the battlefield and washed the sand by big waves.
Therefore, if a general has always adhered to a style, then he can only become a partial commander after all, and it is even difficult to lead an army alone.
At this point, you can call it a famous general, or a general.
Wei Chi Hui sent troops this time, knowing that there was a shortage of troops, if he was advancing steadily, he would definitely have received the news of the destruction of the Western Liang before he arrived at Jiangling City, so he changed his steady style of using troops after old age, and went out of Jingshan with light troops, just like when the young soldiers went out of Yin Pingguan to Pingshu's tactics, the soldiers made dangerous moves, naturally in order to win the most precious time.
Pei Zilie asked himself if he could change at any time, but he was also trying to make changes. didn't care about the surprised expressions of the surrounding generals, Pei Zilie said directly: "Now if we delay for a moment, there may be one more death on the side of Zhangshan County, and then the city will not be able to hold it, and our lone army in the wilderness will not be the prey of the enemy." ”
As he spoke, Pei Zilie rushed forward quickly; "If you are not afraid of death, come with Lao Tzu!"
"If you can't break through the enemy's defense line, Zhangshan County is lost, and we will die horizontally, so it's better to kill him now!" One of the soldiers scolded and scolded, while the rest of the battle lords and generals laughed and followed closely.
"General!" A general with a broken arm walked up to Pei Zilie's side with the support of several soldiers, "General, these damn barbarians have killed too fiercely, and the brothers rushed up three times, but they were all forced to take it down." ”
Pei Zilie subconsciously looked up, and the corpses of the Northern Zhou and Southern Chen soldiers were stacked on the entire hillside, and blood flowed freely along the ravines on the hillside that had been washed out by the rain.
The surrounding soldiers and generals all had tired looks on their faces, and many of them were wounded, and it was clear that they had done everything they could to take the hillside. Another general's lips trembled slightly, and he whispered: "General, the brothers are really tired from marching all the way, if you can let everyone rest······"
"No way!" Pei Zilie said categorically, he didn't have any more choices at this time, he didn't know how long Zhangshan County would be able to support it, and he didn't know if these soldiers would have the fighting spirit and will to face this corpse-ridden hillside after resting for a while.
One drum, then decline, three and exhaustion, this simple truth, Pei Zilie is very clear.
And Pei Zilie didn't know if those enemies on the hillside would resist more tenaciously after they had time to rest. Driven by light troops, these enemies were clearly prepared to die.
"Give it to me!" Pei Zilie stretched out his hand and snatched the tattered military flag in the hands of the somewhat discouraged general just now, the red flag was sprinkled with specks of blood, and only half of the word "Chen" was left. But the flag is still dancing in the night wind, condensing everyone's eyes.
Pei Zilie gritted his teeth: "Brothers, the first one to rush up the hill is the first to do it!" You don't want this work, Lao Tzu wants it! ”
Before he could finish speaking, he was the first to rush upward.
Since they have already led people to this place, they might as well do it if they take the lead in the charge. It's just that I don't know how Sikong, who is in Jiankang at this time, will feel when he learns that his protégé and junior, who have always been stable in his eyes, would do such a thing that doesn't care about life and death.
"Rush!" All the lords and generals were already red-eyed.
It is their shame to let the general charge, if they really let Pei Zilie rush up the hill first, I'm afraid they won't have the face to see anyone in the future!
