Chapter 149: Bloody Anshun Field 1
After a long journey of more than a month, the Taiping army led by Shi Dakai arrived in Yizhou in late September.
On the journey from Yexian to Yizhou, the Taiping army passed smoothly and did not encounter the enemy's resistance.
Shi Dakai and the others traveled for a few more days and came to the vicinity of the Dadu River.
"All rest, after eating, continue to set off, no more than a quarter of an hour." Shi Dakai said to everyone.
No, General.
Feng Wanzhen said while biting a dry food: "Boss, my subordinates have heard that the most dangerous place in the entire Dadu River is Anshun Field. ”
"There, once there is an enemy ambush, not only can you be condescending, but the most important thing is that if you want to pass through Anshun Field, you can only squeeze the single-plank bridge that only allows two people to pass at the same time."
Shi Dakai said: "Wanzhen, do you know all these in detail?" Is the intelligence reliable? ”
Feng Wanzhen said: "Reliable." I dressed up as a lost little woman an hour ago, and then asked a Tian father what I knew. ”
Shi Dakai said: "Sister Wan, then how did you tell that Tian's father?" ”
Feng Wanzhen said: "I told that Tian's father, I am the youngest daughter of Yizhou Mu Liu Yan, and I was separated from my brother for a while, and asked how I could go back to Chengdu here, so I asked it." ”
Shi Dakai said: "Sister Wan really has you." Well, no matter what kind of natural danger the Anshun field is in front of us, we have to get through. Let's go, everyone! ”
Shi Dakai's 40,000-strong army traveled not far away, and found that if he wanted to cross the river, there was no way to detour like just now, and the only way was to squeeze the single-plank bridge.
Shi Dakai took a look around his surroundings. In the middle, there is a single-plank bridge as narrow as chicken intestines, and under the bridge, there is a rushing river, which is very turbulent at a glance.
On either side, there are high mountains as high as wolf's teeth, and the distance between the mountains and the single-plank bridge is within the range of the bow and arrow. Behind the high mountain is the towering Sword Pavilion.
When Shi Dakai saw this landform, his heart was stunned.
"Stop, don't cross the bridge yet, wait for my order!"
Shi Dakai gave an order, and the whole army stopped in unison.
Shi Dakai looked up at the sky again, and there was not a single bird in the sky. Shi Dakai pricked up his ears again and listened carefully, the silence around him was terrifying, and he couldn't even hear the chirping of animals.
Shi Dakai was even more convinced that there might be a big problem between the two mountains. At this moment, Shi Dakai's cold sweat broke out.
If you just go forward without recklessness, once there are a large number of enemies ambushed between the two mountains, your tens of thousands of people will be really dangerous.
Shi Dakai also knew that the arrow was on the bow and had to make a statement, so he yelled: "The whole army is on alert, something is not quite right here, there should be an ambush." ”
"The whole army, a shield soldier and offensive troops are grouped together, covering the army to pass through the Anshun field, there must be no mistakes!"
Promise!
The 40,000 Taiping army, under the command of Shi Dakai and the others, changed their formation in less than a pillar of incense, and rushed towards the opposite side of the bridge under the cover of shield soldiers.
Deep in the two mountains. Zhang Ren stroked his slender beard and said: "This group of Taiping troops is worthy of being elite, advancing and retreating in a measured manner, not chaotic in the face of danger, and prohibiting it." ”
"The main general can also sense danger in time, yes, yes, a strong opponent. Moreover, I seem to feel that there are three breaths inside, and they seem to be stronger than me, and they should be the two men and one woman in the lead. ”
"But what if you're strong? Under my Zhang Ren's bow and arrows, you all have to become hedgehogs! ”
Zhang Ren watched the Taiping army gradually come to the best shooting location, no longer hesitated, and directly waved the flag, deep in the two mountains, and thousands of arrows were fired in an instant.
Looking at the locust-like cold arrows shot from the depths of the two mountains, Shi Dakai did not panic in the slightest, and shouted: "Shield! ”
When the shield soldier heard the order, he put his shield over the heads of himself and his comrades.
However, there are still too many cold arrows. And this single-plank bridge is very narrow, so the efficiency of the Taiping army crossing the bridge is not high.
From time to time, the screams of the Taiping army's arrows sounded, and countless Taiping soldiers fell into the water with arrows, and the blood stained the originally clear foaming water.
After several waves of arrow rain, more than 10,000 Taiping troops were shot dead and trampled to death. At this time, the Taiping soldiers had just crossed half the distance.
Zhang Ren watched the Taiping army on the bridge fall in pieces, and was very satisfied.
Zhang Ren then ordered: "You continue to shoot, stop shooting arrows after three shots, and I will take people up to kill for a while." “
No, General.
As a result, the Yizhou army faced the Taiping army with several cold arrows. After the cold arrow, the Taiping army lost thousands of men.
At the cost of nearly 20,000 men, the Taiping army finally succeeded in crossing the single-plank bridge. The remaining 20,000 Taiping troops, including Shi Dakai, were injured to varying degrees.
Shi Dakai knew that this was not the time to relax. Only when the Taiping army broke through the Anshun field could it be regarded as truly out of danger.
After the Yizhou army finished shooting the arrow, Zhang Ren saw that this was a good opportunity, and directly led the Yizhou army to kill it condescendingly from between the two mountains.
Shi Dakai looked at the dense Yizhou army in front of him, and said: "Brothers, rush over, we can live, if we can't rush over or pray for surrender, we will die, we can only fight to the death!" ”
"Fight to the death, fight to the death!" More than 20,000 Taiping soldiers who were still fighting launched a charge against the soldiers of the Yizhou Army. ”
