Chapter 553: Ambush (5)
On the high chariot, the young man Yang Ye grabbed the railing with one hand and pressed the scabbard with the other, looking at the scene in the wilderness with a blue face.
The sun was shining overhead, the ground was dry, and countless people were rushing across the battlefield, making the dust billowing in all directions, and the vision was not very clear. However, Yang Ye has many years of experience in battle formations, and he can feel the turbulence and atmosphere everywhere on the battlefield. This situation is very wrong!
He felt something was wrong from the beginning, it was like an ambush?! It is clearly attacked.
As soon as the army clashed, the Zhou army was very arrogant, so it launched a charge attack from the left and right and the center, and the Northern Han army was very passive. How does that scene look like an army at the bottom? What made Yang Ye the most unbearable was that the central front was pierced at first, and the enemy army almost took the Chinese army directly!
"!" Yang Ye subconsciously scolded, and spat fiercely regardless of his manners.
His heart is really blocked! Xindao: Can this battle still be fought? The strength of the army is more than twice that of the opponent, waiting for work, attacking its fatigue, and attacking it unprepared! It's already like this, how else can you win?
At this moment, the war has been going on for less than an hour.
At this moment, I suddenly saw a large area collapse of the phalanx in the front of the center! The central infantry of the Zhou army attacked from the front, and an iron cavalry pierced through the middle and attacked the front in a roundabout way; As a result, the Great Array of the Northern Han Dynasty was divided, suffered from the front and rear attacks, the arrays collapsed, and a large number of chaotic armies poured scattered to the north. Several units of cavalry of the Zhou army attacked fiercely in the middle, and the Northern Han infantry army in the back was a locally mobilized town army, which was even more vulnerable, and the defeat of the central army was unstoppable.
"!" Yang Ye had no other way than to scold. Lao Tzu is not an immortal, is there any way to prevent a large number of phalanxes from collapsing!
The Zhou army was very violent, and the shout of "Long live my emperor" came from the wind, and the fanatical cavalry, the crazy charge, and the smoke spread quickly like a ball of fire. Feng Jinke, who was riding a horse nearby, shouted: "Boss! The last general suggested that the left and right wings of horsemen should be immediately transferred to block the men and horses in front, otherwise the Chinese army would be attacked by the enemy and shake the morale of the army! ”
Yang Ye walked down the ladder and shouted, "Lead the horse!" ”
Feng Jinke immediately dissuaded: "The lord must not leave the Chinese army, the last general will lead the army forward!" ”
Yang Ye still listens to persuasion, and although he claims to be invincible, he does not rely on martial arts to fight. No matter how high the martial arts are, it is useful in the face of thousands of troops! Then he ordered the deputy general Feng Jinke to lead the elite cavalry to resist the enemy.
But at this moment, I saw the cavalry on the left and right flanks rushing backwards in a chaotic manner.
Yang Ye hurriedly asked, "Who gave the order to retreat?" ”
Feng Jinke said: "You are the commander, and you are in charge of the Chinese army, you have not issued a military order, who can give an order?" ”
Yang Ye stared at the horses in the distance with round eyes, Feng Jinke glanced at it and said, "That's not retreating, it's being routed, and you're fleeing!" ”
At this time, a large number of defeated soldiers in the center also flocked to the Chinese army, and in this kind of scene, the atmosphere of defeat would spread like a plague. The camps of the Northern Han Army were turbulent, and the army had no heart to fight.
A general led the horse over, hugged his fists and said: "Lord, get on the horse quickly, it's time to go." ”
Yang Ye seemed to have a dream, he didn't believe that this battle would be lost! I didn't believe it would be defeated so quickly...... was directly defeated from the front, rough and quickly, as if he Yang Ye was a vulnerable person. His face turned blue and white for a while, and he said, "Where are you going?" ”
The subordinate general persuaded: "Now that the matter is over, let's run away with the horsemen." The infantry had no choice but to leave it alone! ”
Feng Jinke also agreed: "The general trend is gone!" ”
Yang Ye finally recognized the reality...... Because he was the direct planner of this battle, he thought it was a battle that he would win, but he lost like this, and the psychological gap was too big, and it was a little difficult to accept for a while. But Yang Ye can only accept it, but the process is really painful, especially for people who are already conceited.
"You all have families and rooms, hurry up and get on the horse and run, the blame is not waiting." Yang Ye sighed.
The subordinate general hurriedly persuaded: "Lord, stay in the green mountains without worrying about running out of firewood...... "Quickly help the lord get on the horse!" ”
A group of relatives came up, grabbed Yang Ye, and almost pushed him on the war horse. Yang Ye half-pushed and half-got on the horse, his attitude was not resolute, and then he was dragged by his own soldiers to retreat towards the north. It is true that he has not yet reached the time of killing, although this battle is too badly lost, but victory and defeat are commonplace; The lord of the Northern Han Dynasty won't do anything to him, he really tried his best!
Yang Ye rode his horse north, and at the same time looked back again, the battlefield was a mess, and the bravery and fanaticism of the Zhou army were deeply imprinted in his mind. This Zhou army is different from the Zhou army that attacked Jinyang a few years ago, and Yang Ye can't say what the difference is.
Only for a moment, he suddenly had an intuition: the Northern Han Kingdom is finished!
However, the first to die was the Northern Han army on the battlefield here. As soon as the Chinese army withdrew, the already crumbling Northern Han Army completely lost its morale and collapsed on all fronts. Only the Ma army behind the palace and the Chinese army ran away in a formation, and the rest of the troops fled in a scattered manner...... No commander can remove the army that has been engaged in the battle completely; The men and horses who entered the battlefield on the front line were immediately covered by the enemy as soon as they withdrew.
On the battlefield, the infantry of the Northern Han Army threw away their armor and fled in a panic, but their two legs could not outrun the four legs of the cavalry, and they were divided and outflanked one after another. A large number of infantry fell to their knees and shouted: "Long live, long live, long live the Great Zhou Emperor......"
Those who can't run away are innumerable, and countless people have surrendered.
Shi Yanchao, Dong Zunzhi and other troops led the cavalry to pursue, but Guo Shao ordered not to chase far away...... The cavalry of the Northern Han army ran fast, and the cavalry of the Zhou army covered their backs and killed for several miles, but most of them did not catch up. They had no choice but to withdraw their troops, but on the way they found several places where the Northern Han army had been ambushed at first, all below the plateau horizon and not easy to find. A number of tents and baggage were seized in those places.
…… Guo Shao rode his horse to the front line at this time, the army was cheering victory, the war horses were running in all directions, and a large number of enemy soldiers were captured. The warm afterglow of the battlefield has not yet faded. At this moment, he found a tall chariot in the position of the Central Army of the Northern Han Army, and there was a wooden ladder behind it to walk up.
"Command vehicle?" Guo Shao took a look, then rode over with a group of generals and soldiers.
This kind of car should be used by the main general, and the main general of the Northern Han Army is Yang Ye! Guo Shaoxin said: The Yang family is really worthy of its reputation, at least Yang Ye is very talented. He thought that the chariot that the Yang family general had just sat in was in front of him, and a very strange feeling welled up in his heart...... The famous generals of the millennium are close at hand, and Guo Shao has a touch of being separated from the world at this time.
He observed that the car was just a wooden shelf. Then he turned over and jumped off the horse, threw the reins to Dong Er next to him, and under the gaze of the generals and Wang Pu and others, he held on to the wooden handrail and climbed up from the wooden ladder.
When I walked to the top, I saw a wide line of sight, and the vast wilderness seemed to be in full view.
