Chapter 445: Mandate of Heaven (2)
Seeing this, Liu naturally jumped onto the shelf, subdued the young drummer with one move, and snatched the drumstick from him.
But at this time, when the other drummers saw that the young drummer was talking to Zhang Shumo, they thundered the signal to charge, and thought that Zhang Shumo gave him an order, so they immediately followed suit.
In an instant, the war drums of the sky resounded through the night sky, like the roar of a giant beast, which shook everyone's eardrums.
Now the soldiers of Yan Kingdom are completely stupid, even if they don't let everyone enter the camp, they still want everyone to charge? This is a life that does not take everyone's life at all!
Zang Zhuo, the general of the left battalion, and Wen Hai, the general of the right battalion, each looked at Zhang Gui and Li Mo beside them, as if they wanted to ask for an explanation.
But how did Zhang Gui and Li Mo know about the oolong in this, and they naturally couldn't understand what Zhang Shumo wanted to do when he ordered the charge at this time? Could it be that Zhang Shumo didn't consider the issue of military morale at all?
It's just that Yan Guo's side was stupid, and even their opponent Jing Guo's soldiers hesitated when they heard the signal of the charge, especially Shen Lang, who looked around with wide eyes in horror: Could it be that he really fell into Yan Guo's ambush? They saw through their plan from the beginning, so they deliberately acted in such a play, in order to eat their main army in one bite?
And Wen Hai came to question Li Mo violently, but he didn't know how to answer. He thought about it for a moment, and had to explain hard: "My son-in-law also knows that the soldiers have no intention of fighting, but the people of Jingguo will not let everyone go!" The soldiers of Yan Kingdom were originally men who stood up to the sky, which one was not stronger than those bad people in Jingguo? If it was defeated like this, wouldn't it be a great shame for Yan Guo? Only let everyone give up the idea of surviving, break the cauldron and sink the boat, and show the momentum of fighting against the water, in order to win this battle! ”
Wen Hai was said by Li Mo, and the anger in his heart did not come to a place. On this expedition, Gongsun Luo handed over 50,000 old and young weak soldiers to Wen Hai to command, which made Wen Hai very unhappy, originally wanted to take this opportunity to make great contributions and seek to become a knight, but now he can only fall behind the rear army and clean up the battlefield, how can he bear it?
Coupled with the stimulation of Li Mo's words, Wen Hai couldn't hold back any longer, raised his double-bladed halberd high and shouted to his subordinates: "The eldest husband is in a troubled time, he must make meritorious contributions, brothers rush with me!" ”
After speaking, Wen Hai took the lead, and when the 50,000 old and young weak soldiers saw this, the anger in their hearts had nowhere to vent, so they had to point the finger at the Jingguo people, and they all roared and rushed towards the Jingguo army.
Zang Zhuo on the other side saw that Wen Hai and 50,000 old and weak soldiers had already launched a charge, and there was no reason for him to look at the elite cavalry of the Great Yan Kingdom! So without saying a word, he led a group of cavalry to charge.
Two groups of men and horses, one on the left and one on the right, rushed towards the two wings of Jingguo's army.
Luo Dian in the middle saw that this was already the case on the battlefield, could it be worse? Without thinking much about it, he also launched a charge with 40,000 elite infantry.
At this time, Shen Lang was completely dumbfounded, looking at the Yan army that was charging scattered, Shen Lang really became a monk who was puzzled: What kind of trick is this Yan country people playing? How can there be a mixture of infantry and cavalry to charge?
Shen Lang, who couldn't figure out the situation, immediately ordered the whole army to stop advancing and lined up to prepare to meet the enemy.
But Jingguo's 20,000 cavalry couldn't bear it, and the general Cao Yun immediately proposed to Shen Lang: "General, the other party's formation is so chaotic, why don't you let me lead 20,000 cavalry to charge the infantry on their flanks, I believe that after a few charges, their flanks will disperse!" ”
And what Shen Lang was worried about was the 50,000 infantry on the left. Generally speaking, an infantry-based army should have infantry in the center, supplemented by light cavalry on both sides. But the other party must have ulterior motives in arranging the formation like this, maybe they just want to lure themselves to attack their left flank!
Thinking of this, Shen Lang resolutely rejected Cao Yun's proposal: "We don't know what tricks the enemy is playing now, we should defend with all our strength first, watch and then move!" ”
And Zhang Shumo is also aware of this problem, the current formation of the Yan army is obviously disjointed, and the scattered charge makes the left wing far away from the Chinese army, once the enemy charges the left flank, the Yan army will definitely suffer heavy losses!
Zhang Shumo, who was anxious, immediately returned to the camp, and now there are 10,000 guards in the camp to protect Gongsun Luo, these 10,000 cavalry are well-equipped, so let them set off now to protect the left flank of the army, even if they encounter enemy cavalry, there should still be room for maneuver.
But after entering the camp of the Chinese army, everyone gathered in Gongsun Luo's tent. At this time, Gongsun Luo was already unconscious, his face was bloodless, and several doctors surrounded him, trying to help him pull out the arrow.
Zhang Shumo hurriedly found Xu Jian and explained his intention. But Xu Jian didn't have the heart to deal with Zhang Shumo at all, and when he heard that he was going to mobilize an army to protect Gongsun Luo, he immediately refused sternly.
"The escort of 10,000 people is the last barrier to protect His Highness, if they also go to the battlefield, then who will take care of His Highness's safety?"
Zhang Shumo knew in his heart that the battle situation outside the camp was also urgent, so he pointed to Gongsun Luo and said, "General Xu, can you still evacuate when you look at the current state of His Highness?" If the battle outside is lost, what if there are 10,000 people to protect His Highness? Where are you running with His Highness so badly wounded? Can His Highness stand the toss? Only if the battle is won outside, can His Highness live! ”
After listening to Zhang Shumo's words, Xu Jian's heart gradually calmed down, what Zhang Shumo said was right, Gongsun Luo couldn't afford to toss, so the battle outside was only allowed to win and not lose.
Thinking of this, Xu Jian had no choice but to order, leaving only 200 people to guard Gongsun Luo, and the rest of the guards all followed Zhang Shumo out of the camp and beat the enemy!
So, Zhang Shumo immediately arranged for the escort to rush to the left flank of the large army to protect the left flank from being scattered by the enemy.
With the charge of the Yan army, the empty land on the border between Yan and Jing was full of dense human heads, and the situation became even more chaotic.
Shen Lang, who was suspicious by nature, always felt that the Yan army must still have a backhand, so he immediately ordered the infantry to line up, but the 20,000 light cavalry dragged behind the infantry, waiting for the opportunity to move.
On the right flank, Zang Zhuo led the Yan cavalry to rush to Jingguo's left army, and Zang Zhuo understood that the winner of this battle should be on his side. Wen Hai on the left flank must not be able to count on it, and the 40,000 elite infantry of the Chinese army should be able to entangle the enemy's main force, so the battle situation on his side is related to the entire battle situation.
Seeing that the cavalry on the right flank of the Yan army was approaching his side, Shen Lang immediately ordered his left army to push out the chariot and set up a long defensive line.
As soon as Zang Zhuo saw Jing Jun's chariot, he chuckled in his heart, he didn't expect Shen Lang to have a backhand!
