Chapter 441: Life and Death, Fortune and Wealth in the Sky
Liu naturally couldn't help but laugh when he heard Zhang Shumo's words: "I'm afraid you really dare to do this if you are on the enemy's side, but I think the people of Jingguo shouldn't dare to do this, right?" After all, it is the first time that the two armies have clashed, and the details of the two sides are unknown, and directly sending a team to burn the baggage is tantamount to sending them to death! ”
Zhang Shumo nodded: "I'm just talking, but this Jingguo people are stupid enough, with tens of thousands of people, they are in front of Gongsun Luo's 150,000 army." Now Gongsun Luo launched a ruthless attack and directly charged the whole army, in the face of the huge strength gap, no amount of cleverness on their part will help! ”
At this time, Li Mo suddenly said: "Childe, I'm afraid this is the enemy's plan, right?" Have you forgotten the hounds? ”
Zhang Shumo was directly frightened into a cold sweat when he heard this, how could he forget this stubble! In this way, the other party's various provocative behaviors are obviously trying to provoke the chief general of the Yan Kingdom, once someone leads the troops to charge, then the hunting dogs of the Jing Kingdom can take the opportunity to assassinate the main general of the Yan Kingdom! The other party wants to use these tens of thousands of people to directly exchange for victory in this battle!
Thinking of this, Zhang Shumo immediately said to Liu Tiantian: "Quick, you go and protect Gongsun Luo, if he dies, I'm afraid we will have to retreat!" ”
Chen Lin hurriedly stopped Liu Tiantian: "No! Liu Daochang still stays to protect his son! Speaking of this, Chen Lin reminded Zhang Shumo: "Childe, have you forgotten what I said before?" ”
When Zhang Shumo heard this, he remembered Chen Lin's words in his mind, and he hesitated. If Gongsun Luo dies in battle, although this Eastern Crusade is a failure, Yan and Jing Guo are considered to have a blood feud, so Yan Guo will definitely use the strength of the whole country to attack Jing Guo. Yang Xue and the others also had a chance to breathe.
After struggling for a long time, Zhang Shumo still gave up: "Okay, life and death are in the sky, wealth is in the sky, Gongsun Luo's own charge, whether it is life or death depends on himself!" ”
On the battlefield, more than 100,000 troops launched a charge, and the momentum shook the sky! From a distance, the Yan army was like a big net, closing towards a small fish.
Shen Lang licked his lips when he saw this, and he didn't know if he was too nervous, his mouth was a little dry, or he was excited.
After a while, Shen Lang seemed to have made up his mind, and said to the people around him: "Mingjin collects the troops, let the cavalry withdraw, and the infantry form a square formation to fight and retreat!" ”
Soon, the Jingguo army gathered its troops, and the two cavalrymen who rushed towards Li Ran's troops did not have a face to face with Nie Fei and She Zhou's troops, so they went around in a circle and began to run back.
Nie Fei and She Zhou's handling methods were different, and Nie Fei immediately stopped chasing when he saw this, waiting to join forces with the large army and charge the enemy. However, She Zhou directly chased the enemy army and ran towards the side of the battlefield.
On the frontal battlefield, the Jingguo infantry immediately lined up in a phalanx after receiving the order, fighting and retreating. Only the troops of more than 10,000 people who were bitten by Li Ran fled in a scattered state.
Seeing that the enemy army was defeated and fled, Li Ran felt a sense of pride in his heart, pointed to Jingguo's camp and shouted: "The kung fu in hand is not very good, but it is quite good to escape, there is a kind of don't run, fight to the death with grandpa!" ”
The people of Jingguo naturally didn't pay attention to Li Ran, and the sound of hundreds of thousands of troops charging had already covered Li Ran's shouts, and Shen Lang's eyes at this time only had the eye-catching "Gongsun" banner in the Yan Guojun array!
Soon, Li Ran once again organized his troops to rush towards the Jingguo infantry. But the scattered charge could not pose a threat to the infantry phalanx at all, but on the contrary, the losses of Li Ran's troops increased.
Closely behind Li Ran's troops was the 40,000 cavalry of the Yan State, this time the Yan State brought a total of 50,000 cavalry, except for She Zhou with 10,000 cavalry chasing the enemy, the remaining 40,000 cavalry had completed the convergence and launched an attack on the Jingguo infantry phalanx.
Li Ran's troops hurriedly got out of the way, the charge of 40,000 cavalry was huge, and the Jingguo infantry was also nervous, they stopped retreating, and everyone stuck one end of the halberd on the ground, and the halberd was diagonally facing forty-five degrees, waiting for the battle.
Immediately afterwards, only a few muffled sounds were heard, and then the war horses neighed, and one by one the Yan cavalry crashed into the Jingguo infantry phalanx like arrows off the string, and it became a mess for a while.
Gongsun Luo originally rushed to the front of the line, but after a hundred steps, Gongsun Luo deliberately slowed down to let the cavalry behind him overtake, and at this time he had fallen into the Chinese army.
Xu Jian followed Gongsun Luo closely with a well-equipped cavalry, for fear that he would make some trouble and he would not be able to explain. And this cavalry was originally Gongsun Ze's escort team, and on this expedition, Gongsun Xue specially transferred the escort team to Xu Jian, so that he could protect Gongsun Luo's safety.
At this time, Gongsun Luo heard the sound of the battlefield in front of him, and immediately said to the guards around him: "You go to the front to see how the battle is going, and then come back and report to me!" ”
Hearing the order, ten cavalrymen of the convoy left the Chinese army and rushed to the forefront of the battlefield.
At this time, the battle has progressed to a white-hot stage, although the Jingguo infantry is only 50,000 people, but the Yan Guo's charge this time has caused the infantry and cavalry to be disconnected, and now the Jingguo infantry phalanx is facing only 40,000 cavalry and less than 10,000 Li Ran's troops.
A wave of charges down, both sides suffered a lot of losses, but the Yan cavalry obviously suffered greater losses. Moreover, the cost of cultivating a cavalry is obviously greater than that of infantry, and if it continues to fight like this, it is obvious that Yan Guo will suffer.
Zang Zhuo, the commander of the Yan cavalry, immediately made a decision, stopped charging at the enemy, followed the enemy, and waited for the infantry to arrive and annihilate the enemy in one fell swoop.
At this moment, dozens of cavalry suddenly appeared on the flanks of the large army, and Nie Fei hurriedly looked at it, it turned out to be his own people. But Nie Fei suddenly realized that that it was the direction in which She Zhou was pursuing the enemy, and these dozens of cavalry suddenly came back, could it be that She Zhou was ambushed?
So Nie Fei hurriedly asked the returning cavalry, "Are you a subordinate of General She Zhou?" What about General She Zhou? ”
"General She was ambushed by the enemy, we rushed out desperately, and now General She is still surrounded by the enemy, General She has important information for us to report to His Highness!" One returned to the Tao.
As soon as Nie Fei heard that She Zhou had been ambushed, he hurriedly took them to find Zang Zhuo first. At this time, Gongsun Luo's escort team had just arrived, and was asking Zang Zhuo about the battle situation, when the two sides saw Nie Fei and his people coming, so they stopped.
"General Zang, these people are She Zhou's subordinates, She Zhou was ambushed, and they rushed out desperately, saying that they had important information to report to His Highness!" Nie Fei said.
As soon as Zang Zhuo heard and looked at the people of the escort team, the people of the escort team didn't think much about it, and as soon as they heard important information, they immediately said to the dozens of cavalrymen: "You guys come with us!" ”
Waiting for the escort to take away the dozens of cavalrymen, Zang Zhuo didn't feel good in his heart, he asked Nie Fei: "Why can't you tell me what news you have about She Zhou, but you have to tell His Highness?" He wouldn't behave like this in front of His Highness, would he? ”
