Chapter 410: The Tripartite War (10)
When the Cao army and the Jiangdong army were fighting fiercely, the few Yizhou defenders in Chengdu also sensed the turnaround.
The Yizhou soldiers could feel that the enemy's offensive seemed to have weakened a lot in an instant.
Originally, the self-army was stubbornly oppressed by the Jiangdong army, and if it continues like this, I am afraid that it will not last long, and the whole army will be annihilated.
But just when all the Yizhou soldiers thought that they had reached the end of the road, the offensive of the Jiangdong Army suddenly became slackened.
Pressure plummets.
"Reinforcements have arrived, we should fight hard and swear to defend Chengdu!" Although he didn't know what exactly happened, Yan Yan also knew that the opportunity to fight back had appeared.
Yan Yanhu guessed that maybe Zhang Ren anticipated the crisis in Chengdu and rushed to help by bypassing Mianzhu.
Although his guess was wrong, now the Yizhou army is 'spirited' because of his sentence "reinforcements have arrived". The morale of the soldiers of the Yizhou Army, who saw the dawn of hope, rose sharply, and their combat effectiveness improved a lot.
Yan Yan 'stood up' with a big knife and rushed to the front to kill the soldiers of the Jiangdong Army.
Yan Yan is over sixty years old, and his hair is gray, but he is still old and strong, and his residual power is still there. Between the swing of a long knife, I don't know how many enemy soldiers' lives were cut. Although Yan Yan's martial arts are not comparable to Zhang Fei, Zhao Yun and other peerless fierce generals, in the face of these ordinary soldiers, they are still one by one, without dragging mud and water, and their old posture looks very powerful.
If a white-haired veteran fights bravely in front of the army, the effect can be even more significant.
The old generals are so brave and good at fighting, we are in the prime of life, why can't we fight bravely? This is what all the Yizhou soldiers think at the moment.
Witnessing Yan Yan's majesty, the soldiers of the Yizhou Army rose up one by one and fought to the death.
Lü Meng's idea of using a thousand soldiers to deal with the same number of Yizhou soldiers was not wrong, but he ignored the courage of the Yizhou defenders to win to the death under the guidance of Yan Yan.
However, even if he takes this into account, I am afraid that there is no other way, after all, the Cao army in the rear is a greater threat, and it must be guaranteed to be annihilated, so that the number of soldiers used to contain the Yizhou army is destined to be too large.
Lü 'Meng' and Zhang Fei faced the Cao army behind them, and now it was Lu Su who commanded the thousand people. Lu Su is also a Jiangdong hero and has good military talents, but unfortunately in this kind of hard-fought battle, martial courage and courage are obviously more important than strategy.
Moreover, in this kind of troop contest with a small number of people, the role played by the bravery of the military generals is even more immeasurable. Although Lu Su has the ability to lead the army, he is very lacking in martial arts. As a scribe, the sword on his waist is more like a decoration, although he has also practiced some swordsmanship, but it is okay to deal with ordinary soldiers, and when he encounters a general like Yan Yan, I am afraid that he will be killed in seconds in one move.
Lu Su is not a cowardly person, on the contrary, he is quite courageous, but when he saw the enemy general Yi Yong killing his own soldiers first, he couldn't help but feel a little nervous in his heart.
Lu Su could see that under the advantages of one and the other, the Yizhou army had gained the upper hand in momentum. If the Yizhou army is allowed to kill like this, it will be a matter of time before his 1,000 people are defeated.
Lu Su couldn't help but feel a little anxious, his thousand people can't be defeated, once defeated, then Lu 'Meng's side will be attacked from front to back, and it will be the end of the whole army.
But now that the two armies meet on a narrow road, resourcefulness is not useful at all, and they can only rely on the hard confrontation of the generals of both sides. Lu Su racked his brains, but still couldn't think of a way to reverse the decline.
Now the soldiers of the Jiangdong Army have shown signs of defeat and retreat, although Yan Yan is old, he is getting braver and braver, and the whole person actually has a radiant sign, obviously the more he kills, the more excited he becomes.
Especially when he gradually saw the hope of victory, Yan Yan had a faint trace of 'agitation' in his heart.
In comparison, Lu Su and Lu Zijing, who have always been calm and calm on weekdays, showed a sad face at this time, worried about the war.
After the 'color' of his face changed several times, Lu Su finally 'revealed' a firm expression.
He drew the sword at his waist and decided to go to the battlefield himself.
Now that the situation is unfavorable and the morale of the whole army is low, only by going into battle in person can we boost the morale of the army and have the possibility of reversing the situation.
Seeing that Lu Su wanted to kill the enemy with a sword, the few personal soldiers who were in charge of defending him were all dumbfounded, and hurriedly stopped in front of him, kneeling down to dissuade Lu Su from risking his life.
Although Lu Su is not a weak man without the power of the 'chicken', but he is not a brave general with outstanding martial arts, the so-called battlefield is dangerous, in case Lu Su has a good and bad person, the thousand people were suddenly defeated, not to mention, Jiangdong lost a lot of pillars.
For people like Lu Su, it is their duty to strategize, and charging into battle should be insulated from them.
What's more, it is the duty of these pro-soldiers to protect Lu Su, if something happens to Lu Su, they may all be martyred, so no pro-soldier dares to let Lu Su go into battle.
