Chapter 186: Plants vs. Zombies
The two armies faced each other in the open space, Uncle Zhang was overjoyed at night, and the coalition forces were even more gearing up, only hearing the voice of thieves for more than ten consecutive days, and not seeing the shadow of thieves.
Liang Shanbo sent four cavalry regiments and four infantry regiments for a total of eight regiments, two cavalry regiments to protect the two wings, two infantry regiments lined up in the middle to prepare to charge, and the remaining half of the men and horses as backup to support at any time.
Nowadays, the soldiers of Liangshanbo are equipped with advanced weapons, each carrying a lot of grenades, and there are long-range weapons, which are privately called bloodthirsty talismans by the soldiers. As long as the coalition forces rush over, shoot from a distance and bomb at close range, disrupt the enemy's position, and the cavalry will outflank them on both flanks, there is no reason to be invincible.
Zhang Shuye is not an ordinary person, he saw the characteristics of Liangshanbo's troop deployment, so he asked Yinglong, the commander of Yizhou, and Fu Shuolin, the governor of Puzhou, to each bring 2,000 cavalry from the headquarters to protect the left and right wings, and first sent a few hundred infantry as cannon fodder to attack tentatively. Sure enough, after these people fell under the arrows one by one, Zhang Shuye's attack really began.
I saw the coalition forces pushing the cart, and rows of thick wooden planks were erected on the cart, and the infantry cowered behind it, although the attack speed was slow, but the casualties were reduced. Unless someone accidentally stands in the gap between the two carts, and happens to shoot another arrow from the gap.
Since Zhang Shuye heard that Liang Shanbo used a hard crossbow when attacking Gaotang Prefecture, this arrow can penetrate two people, so he thought of this method and made a protective vehicle with several layers of thick wooden planks for use in war, and he didn't want it to come in handy today.
Seeing this, Lin Chong, who commanded the battle, ordered the archers to stop shooting, and he asked Li Gon and Xiang Chong to quickly meet the two reinforced battalions. Leegon's reinforced battalion had twenty-four javelins, and when they came to the attack, they threw them at them.
At this time, the protective vehicle became a burden, they blocked the view of the coalition forces, could not see the projectile javelin, and when they saw it, the javelin was already in front of them, how could they hide.
Xiang Chong's flying knife team exists in name only, except for a few good skills, they still keep flying knives, but it is also a personal hobby, and the rest are all eliminated and replaced with grenades, becoming a veritable bomb throwing team. The flying knife looks very stylish when played well, but aside from the hard work of practice, its lethality is limited, and one knife can only kill one person, and it depends on the hit rate. The grenade is different, it explodes and affects a range of several meters, and it is very simple to practice, just pull the string and throw it into the crowd.
Lin Chong's move is very good, the response is extremely right, it seems that the military class on weekdays is not in vain. Needless to say, the second wave of attacks by the coalition forces was unsuccessful, and the protective vehicles were also set on fire. Li Gon and Xiang Chong did not dare to lead the army to kill them, and it was strange that the lone army would not be surrounded and beaten by the group, which was a topic that all officers had debated in military class.
Uncle Zhang saw that although the second wave of attacks was defeated, it was also effective, as long as he could rush into the enemy formation, his own advantage would be highlighted, because they were numerous. Therefore, the third wave of attacks must blossom more, the cavalry on both flanks is killed, and the infantry in the center is still attacking under the protective vehicle, as long as the cavalry disrupts the two wings and kills into the enemy formation, the infantry can quickly rush into the enemy position in hand-to-hand combat.
Uncle Zhang gave a death order at night, and even if all of them were killed in this three-point attack, they must not retreat, and all those who retreated were engaged in military law. Ying Long and Fu Shuolin attacked the two wings, and he himself led the infantry to attack in the middle. How could the generals let the commander be in danger, and they all advised and asked him to lead the troops to charge, and finally Jeju Yang Qi grabbed this glorious and arduous task, vowing to be ashamed of it, and if he didn't succeed, he would become benevolent. Uncle Zhang patted him on the shoulder at night, his eyes full of trust and hope.
This seemingly seamless battle plan was instantly seen by Lin Chong, and he decisively changed the formation. The cavalry retreated, the hard crossbows were all placed on the two wings, and the cavalry was specially shot, and the infantry in the middle ignored them first, and greeted them with grenades when they approached.
This change of formation is very effective, the infantry has a protective vehicle, and the arrows are useless against them, but the cavalry can't hide behind the car to attack! In addition, the cavalry has a large target, and the hard crossbow can easily hit the target, which is simply a moving target. By the time they rushed to the front, it was already the end of the crossbows, and there were not many people left, and Liang Shanbo's cavalry could completely defeat them. Then attack the infantry on both sides, and the third wave of the coalition attack will immediately collapse.
The cavalry in front fell off their horses one after another, and those who could not shoot were trampled to death by the horses behind, but they still rushed forward at the cost of their lives, because of the order of death, they did not stop. The infantry led by Yang Qi shrank behind the bunker, moving slowly, and now seeing that the thieves' hard crossbows were used to attack the cavalry on both wings, the door to the middle was wide open, and when the opportunity came, he decisively ordered to throw away the protective car and rushed to the main formation of Liangshanbo.
This order showed Yang Qi's excellent sergeant ability and extraordinary battlefield insight, and the coalition forces quickly approached the Liangshan men. Thirty steps, twenty steps, and when they reached a dozen steps, grenades sounded like locusts in their charging path. Immediately explosions rang out, limbs shattered, and corpses flew everywhere, but these could not stop the pace of the coalition army's forward charge, and they charged forward without fear of death. It is better to die on the battlefield than to die when you go back, so you rushed up to fight hand-to-hand with the Liangshanbo infantry.
At this time, Liangshanbo's cavalry also charged, Yang Zhi and Zhu Tong led their troops to meet the coalition cavalry, their cavalry was already a few, and was scattered by Liangshanbo's cavalry at once, divided into several small pieces for slaughter. Qiankun Audiobook.com
Courage is admirable, but in the face of absolute strength, it is only synonymous with death.
Song Jiang in the distance put down the clairvoyant mirror in his hand, and thought silently in his heart, once it will be a success, Uncle Zhang is playing the game of Plants vs. Zombies, he treats the soldiers as zombies, and attacks wave after wave. Song Jiang was a little dizzy, this is a battlefield, it is clearly a slaughterhouse. are all descendants of Huang Yan, descendants of China, if the society is stable, who can meet each other, the people of Guotai will be safe!
Uncle Zhang saw that the defeat of the third wave of attacks had been decided, and he wanted to wave his army to cover up the killing, but he saw that Liang Shanbo still had a fresh army that had not been sent to the battlefield, and the thieves were extremely cunning, and he didn't know if there were more ambushes on the periphery. He was still hesitating, but he saw Liang Shanbo collect his troops.
Song Jiang ordered Ming Jin to withdraw his troops, and Liang Shanbo emphasized discipline, and the soldiers reacted immediately when they heard the order, although it could expand the results of the battle.
Uncle Zhang was very puzzled, obviously he had won, why did he withdraw his troops, could it be that there was a bigger conspiracy?
In this battle, Ying Long, the commander of Yizhou, was captured, and Fu Shuolin, the governor of Puzhou, was captured alive by Yang Zhi, and Yang Qi died on the spot. The cavalry of Yiju and Puzhou were almost all killed, and the Jeju infantry suffered more than 2,000 casualties, and the coalition forces were disabled.
Why did Song Jiang withdraw his troops at this time, he was not stupid enough to be benevolent to a woman, he understood that kindness to the enemy was cruelty to himself. Because at this time, I received news from the Ministry of Intelligence: the imperial court has sent the second army to support Zhang Shuye, the leading commander is Hu Yanzhuo, the commander of the leading army, the main vanguard is Xu Ning, the head of the forbidden army, and the deputy vanguard is Han Tao, the general of the Chenzhou regiment, and Peng Xi, the general of the Yingzhou regiment. The three armies each have 3,000 elite cavalry, 5,000 infantry, and 6,000 cavalry of the forbidden army. Xu Ning led the forbidden army to rescue Qingzhou, and he is now on the way.
Song Jiang kept thinking in his heart that before the reinforcements arrived, he had to pull out the hard nail of Zhang Shuye, and he couldn't let them form a joint force. How can you get the biggest win at the least cost? Now it seems that there is an excellent opportunity, but after all, there are still many officers and soldiers, and Zhang Shuye uses this desperate style of fighting without fear of life and death, which is the living force of Liangshanbo, even if he wins, it is a residual victory, and he can't do it! Liang Shanbo has such strength, and if you fight one of them, you will lose one.
In a flash of lightning, Song Jiang had a flash of inspiration, and there was already a ravine in his heart, so he decisively ordered the troops to be withdrawn and went back to outline the strategy perfectly.
The tree wants to be quiet, but the wind does not stop, the court has made a move, and you can't accept it.
The Liangshanbo military meeting enriched Song Jiang's plan: Qingfeng Mountain and Erlongshan worked together to defeat Xu Ning, and immediately flew pigeons to pass the book to Ershan; If the coalition forces do not retreat, they will withdraw the soldiers and horses of the ambush tomorrow morning, and surround Zhang Shuye on all sides, completely destroying the coalition forces.
The trumpet sounded at the ugly hour tonight.
Uncle Zhang looked up to the sky and sighed, these thieves are not ordinarily powerful, and today's battle fully demonstrated their extraordinary combat effectiveness and excellent command ability. In terms of weapons, the advantage is even more obvious, and the Great Song Dynasty's artifact divine arm bow can only be seen on its back. There is such a group of thieves in the Great Song Dynasty, which is a disaster for the Great Song Dynasty, and it is also the sorrow of the Great Song Dynasty, such a talented person is not used by the country, but he gathers in the mountains and forests, is unique, and becomes the abscess and rotten flesh of the Great Song Dynasty.
Sadness is sadness, and you have to do your best for the Great Song Dynasty. Tomorrow! Even if all the coalition forces are wiped out tomorrow, the thieves will be severely damaged! Fortunately, the second road bandit army will arrive soon, and as long as the Liangshan Bo bandits are quelled at that time, my Uncle Zhang will not regret this life.
As long as it's good for the country, why not make a wedding dress.
We'll see tomorrow.
