Chapter 149: The Formation of Euphorbia (5)
Although the two main generals on both sides did not fight in person, and their physical strength was intact, whether it was Gao Shun or Zhang He, at this time, under the huge mental pressure, their whole bodies were still soaked with sweat. I saw that the two of them looked very nervous, staring at the changes in the situation on the battlefield all the time.
Now in Zhang He's heart, Gao Shun and his trapped camp are already existences that must be eradicated. If Zhang He's thoughts were not heavy before, then now he is thinking about how to completely destroy the trapped camp.
The existence of this force is too terrible, and if it is not eradicated as soon as possible, it will become a great disaster in the future.
The strength of the trapped camp is extremely strong, but if it is only strong, it will not make Zhang He feel too worried about this. Zhang He was worried about the spirit shown by this trapped camp, even in a desperate situation, they could still exude their violent murderous intent without fear, which had to make Zhang He feel a palpitation.
Fortunately, the number of people in this trapped camp is not large, and I heard that these thousand people are basically their entire strength, which is also the only place where Zhang He feels comfort now. If Cao Cao had such an army of 10,000 men under his command, Zhang He might have to consider persuading Yuan Shao to withdraw his troops and go back to the north.
But in any case, this trapped camp and its coach Gao Shun have become a thorn in Zhang He's side at this time. The small number of people now does not mean that the number of people will always be so small in the future, if they fail to completely eradicate this trapped camp, if they develop and grow in the future, it will definitely pose a great threat to Yuan Shao's forces.
Although Yuan Shao clamored to finish his work in one battle, Cao Cao and his forces were wiped out in one fell swoop. But Zhang He had a hunch that the next process of this battle would never be as simple as Yuan Shao thought, although Cao Cao's troops were far inferior to Yuan Shao, but it was by no means something that could be destroyed overnight. Although Zhang He was quite confident of winning this battle, he did not think that Yuan Shao could take this opportunity to wipe out Cao Cao's forces in one fell swoop. The reason is simple, although Cao Cao is now on the weaker side, his strength is even less than Yuan Shao's. But Zhang He knew that Cao Cao's strength would never be limited to this, and now Cao Cao had to worry about the possibility that other forces would take advantage of the water, so he would never show all the strength in his hands, and he would definitely leave some troops to guard Xuchang. But once Cao Cao is forced by Yuan Shao, the other party will obviously not be willing to sit still, and he will definitely put all his strength into the confrontation with Yuan Shao. If this really evolves into this situation, then the situation that Yuan Shao will face will not be as easy as it is now.
Therefore, Zhang He's view of this battle was that Yuan Shao would win, and it was very likely that there would be a big victory, but he would definitely not be able to break through Xuchang City, welcome the Son of Heaven into his control, and eradicate Cao Cao's forces in one fell swoop.
It is precisely because Cao Cao cannot be eliminated in one fell swoop, so he cannot give this trapped camp any respite. If they can't be completely slaughtered here, once they get the opportunity to further expand their strength after they survive in the future, then they will definitely become Yuan Shao's henchmen.
It can be said that Gao Shun is the enemy general who has left the deepest impression on Zhang He's mind since he joined the army. If such a person can bring out such an army of a thousand people, who can guarantee that he will not be able to train an army of ten thousand people who are equally terrifying?
Whether it's trapped in the camp, Gao Shun or not, you can't stay! Zhang He made up his mind.
Although the two sides are now in a fighting array, the generals will not end up fighting, and Zhang He has no chance to kill Gao Shun for a while, but this does not mean that he will not continue to look for the possibility of killing Gao Shun in the next big battle after the battle is over.
In the battlefield, the battle situation has become white-hot. Under Gao Shun's order, the soldiers in the trapped camp also felt the looseness of the enemy formation. As if a drowning man had grasped a straw, everyone rushed towards the center of the formation.
I didn't expect that the trapped sergeants who had been trapped for a long time would suddenly attack, and the halberd soldiers were a little caught off guard. Under the constant onslaught of the trapped sergeants, the halberd soldiers felt a little panicked. Although Zhang He repeatedly ordered them to stabilize the formation, if they wanted to stabilize the formation, they had to stop the surge of the trapped sergeants. However, it is easier said than done, especially at the moment when it is even more difficult to stop the progress of these trapped soldiers. Even though these halberders were desperately wielding their halberds in a vain attempt to stop the trapped soldiers from moving, they had little effect.
At this time, the trapped sergeant had fallen into a state of madness, forgetting to die at the end of his life, and only knew how to move forward bravely.
The opponent's long halberd cut through the body and embedded it in the flesh, even if it was carved into the bone marrow, it could not make them take half a step back.
Even if blood is splashed five steps and he dies on the spot, his head will fall straight ahead!
The head fell off the bowl and the big scar, why be afraid of death!
Advance! Concentrated! Then, break the formation in one fell swoop! This was the only belief that the trap sergeant had at the moment.
Zhang He couldn't understand it at all, he even felt like he couldn't think anymore. What kind of training have these people usually gone through to build themselves so strong. Everyone can ignore the pain caused by injury, ignore the horror of facing death, and become more and more frustrated in the face of pain, as if they have been terrified.
Zhang He used to have full confidence in himself, and he firmly believed that his training ability was almost the same, if not unique. In terms of military training, there may not be no people in this world who are better than themselves, but even if they are, their talent in military training cannot be better than their own too much.
However, Gao Shun's appearance was really like a stick on the head, and a stick smashed Zhang He's firmness, which made him feel a little ashamed.
Yes, in terms of the intensive study of the formation, Gao Shun is far inferior to himself. However, even though he is proficient in the formation, it does not mean that his talent is above Gao Shun. No matter how exquisite the formation is, it can be learned through hard work after all, but how to train such a brave and strong soldier who is not afraid of death, Zhang He has no clue.
Is it a promise of money in the name of revenge? No, it's by no means that simple, Zhang He knows that using money and official positions as bait can indeed catch some people and let them sell their lives for themselves. But a thousand people, in a desperate situation, all of them regard death as if they were at home, and there is no trace of hesitation and remorse in the face of death, it is not simple. Such a resolute performance could never have been created by being attracted by such pompous and superficial things as money and official positions.
The Euphorbia Warriors are still making efforts to stop the confluence of the trapped sergeants. But no matter how hard they tried, they could not stop the soldiers in the battle from moving forward.
