ββββ the following textββββ
I thought that the 40,000 merchant and naval troops advancing in the middle were taking the Ji Kuo Department of the Northern Yan Army as the target of the attack, but who would have thought that the 40,000 merchant and naval troops would suddenly divide their troops into two routes, attacking the left and right flanks of the Korean army respectively, and ignoring the Northern Yan Army in the middle as nothing.
This led to a very strange scene on the battlefield: the battlefields on the north and south sides were overcrowded and fighting, but the middle road was extremely empty, and the middle door was wide open.
What kind of tactic is this? Even if he was Ji Kuo, the general of the Northern Yan Army, he was also stunned at this time, feeling that his thinking could not keep up with the changes on the battlefield.
"This ...... This is nonsense! β
In the main formation of the Korean army, the guards beside Le Yi couldn't help but exclaim in surprise after seeing the situation on the battlefield.
The wings are piled up, the middle door is wide open, and there is still such a war to fight?
"Are you here?"
Beiyan Shoule Yi muttered to himself, and a pair of tiger eyes stared intently at the Qin and Wei coalition forces in the distance opposite.
In his opinion, tactics do not distinguish between nonsense and nonsense, as long as they can effectively restrain the enemy army, it is a good tactic.
And Wei Gongzirun's seemingly nonsense move at the moment, in the eyes of Beiyan Shoule Yi, is really clever.
I see...... From the very beginning of the attack on the Handan army on the right flank of our army, he guessed that I would send troops to help...... The reason why the Shang Shui Army slowly marched was to lure Li Mu to send out cavalry to attack his flank......
Le Yi had to admit that even he was deceived by that Wei Gongzirun.
Because just now, he thought that the purpose of the 40,000 Shangshui army to advance was to take advantage of the fact that the Northern Yan Army in his middle route had transferred more than 10,000 troops to support the Handan army, which led to a great reduction in the defense of the middle road, so he wanted to take advantage of the weakness to attack.
Unexpectedly, the other party's calculation was more clever, and instead of taking the middle lane, he took two wings.
Now it's troublesome......
Frowning, Le Yi glanced at the location of his general, Ji Kuo.
After the Shang Shui Army divided its troops to attack the two wings, Ji Kuo's Northern Yan Army formation did not move, as if it was standing in place in a daze, at a loss.
In this regard, Le Yi does not blame Ji Kuo, after all, even if it is him, he can't help but be a little dazed at the moment.
The Northern Yan Army in the middle still has three phalanxes of 5,000 people led by General Ji Kuo, but what should this force do at this moment?
Dividing troops to support the two wings is the most stupid thing to do.
In the face of the offensive of two 20,000-strong merchant water armies, Ji Kuo's troops could only resist one of the merchant water armies by concentrating their strength, after all, it was the Shang water army, which was the most well-known elite force in Wei and won a hundred battles.
What to do?
Supporting the right-wing Handan army?
Aiding the left-wing Yanmen Army?
Or take the opportunity to break through in the center to kill the main formation of the Qin and Wei coalition forces?
Or just stand by and wait and see?
Four choices came to Leyi's mind.
The fourth option, the one that stands still, is undoubtedly very stupid, and it will only miss the fighter.
And the third option, taking the opportunity to break through in the center to kill the main formation of the Qin and Wei coalition forces, seems to be a good choice, but in fact it is also a trap - because in front of the Northern Yan Army's Ji Kuojun Army at this moment to kill Wei Gongzirun's main formation, the Handan Army and the Yanmen Army on both wings will be broken by the Shang Shui Army first.
Don't look at the time when the Northern Yan Army's Ji Kuo Department cooperated with the Yanmen cavalry that attacked the flank of the Qin-Wei coalition army in a roundabout way, or the few four or five thousand people where Wei Gongzi was located, but in fact, at that time, the two wings of the Han army were swallowed by the Qin-Wei coalition army, and the Han army had already lost this battle.
"What a bold tactic...... Order, order Ji Kuo's army to support the left flank! β
Le Yi immediately ordered.
"Yes!" The herald clenched his fists and left, and after a while, he rode to the side of the general Ji Kuo, and clenched his fists and ordered: "The general has an order, and General Ji Kuo is ordered to support the left flank!" β
Aiding the left-wing Yanmen Army?
Ji Kuo was slightly surprised when he heard this, after all, judging from the situation on the battlefield at this moment, it was obvious that the right wing had a bigger problem.
First of all, the 8,000 Northern Yan Army led by Li Cang was attacked from both sides by Yangquan Jun Yingyi and Zhai Huang, the general of the Shangshui Army, and the defense line was defeated several times. Subsequently, the Shangshui Army Zhai Huang's Division, which broke through the Li Cang Division of the Northern Yan Army, continued to advance, and pursued and attacked the Handan Army by taking advantage of the victory, which made the situation of the Korean Army on the northern battlefield show an almost one-sided absolute disadvantage.
In contrast, the Yanmen army on the left flank, although Li Mu, the guard of Yanmen, sent thousands of cavalry to attack the right flank of the Qin-Wei coalition army, but there were still more than 10,000 Yanmen infantry there.
But even so, Le Yi still ordered to support the Yanmen Army on the left flank.
ββ¦β¦ Ji Kuo order! β
Ji Kuo nodded, and immediately ordered the three infantry phalanxes under his command to move closer to the left flank, making the middle battlefield even more empty.
With no obstacles, Zhao Hongrun and Le Yi were even faintly able to see each otherβat least each other's flags.
"The Northern Yan Army in the middle of the road is actually moving south?"
Seeing the actions of the Northern Yan Army's discipline department from a distance, Qin Shaojun was greatly surprised.
At this time, Zhao Hongrun exhaled slightly, showing a little regret: "Sure enough, you shouldn't expect that Le Yi will make a wrong judgment......
Hearing this, Qin Shaojun couldn't help but be a little surprised, because from Zhao Hongrun's tone, the latter seemed to be praising Na Le Yi's judgment.
may have guessed the confusion in Qin Shaojun's heart, Zhao Hongrun Zhengse explained: "The Handan army on the right flank of the Han army, the defeat is irretrievable, even if the Northern Yan army with the remaining three phalanxes is sent to the right flank, it is only a temporary draw with the 20,000 merchant water army of Zhai Huang's department...... However, the left flank of the Korean army, the infantry phalanx of the Yanmen army, had just come into contact with the 20,000 merchant and naval troops of the South Gate Chi, and the victory or defeat was still in the number of six or four, our army was six, and the Yanmen army was four. In this way, our army and the South Korean army each have an advantage on the two flanks of the battlefield, and this battle is still fought; But if Le Yi chooses to support the right-wing Handan Army, which has already lost the situation, then when the Yanmen Army on the left also shows its defeat, there will be almost no possibility for the Korean army to recover in this battle. β¦β¦ This is wise judgment! β
Speaking of this, Zhao Hongrun added with regret: "It's a pity, if Le Yi hesitates for a moment, the 20,000 merchant troops of Nanmen Chi are very likely to gain an advantage on the left flank of the Korean army, hey, it only takes a moment to ......."
As he spoke, he looked up at the Han army's main formation in the distance, and secretly regretted in his heart: Le Yi was too decisive, and he didn't leave him the slightest chance for Wei Jun.
Qin Shaojun glanced at Zhao Hongrun beside her, she must admit that Zhao Hongrun is still very good at commanding operations, but then again, today's tactics are too nonsense.
For example, at present, on this side of the formation, except for the right flank, there are only four or five thousand troops, and the rest of the left flank and middle armies are all deep into the enemy's hinterland, what if a cavalry emerges at this time?
That's right! Cavalry!
As if thinking of something, Qin Shaojun subconsciously turned his head towards his right wing, to be exact, the south side of the right wing.
In that direction, a detachment of Yanmen cavalry bypassed several dirt slopes to the south and was sneaking towards them.
On the right flank there is Lord Wangling...... It should be fine.
Thinking of the main general on the right wing, Qin Shaojun felt a little relieved.
Wang Ling, the chief general of the right wing of the Qin-Wei coalition army, was also born in Qin, cautious and steady, and when Yangquan Jun won the battle against the anti-Qin forces within the 800-mile Qinling Mountains, Wang Ling served as the former's deputy general; Later, when the Qin State attacked Longxi, Wang Ling also led the army to assist in the war and made many meritorious achievements.
However, because he is low-key, and rarely achieves the reputation of the first and second heroes in large-scale battles, his reputation is always inferior to that of Wuxin Hou Gongsun Qi, Changxin Hou Wang Jian, Weiyang Jun Yinghua, Yangquan Jun Yingyi and others.
But it is undeniable that Wang Ling is also a very reliable handsome man - the so-called good fighters have no outstanding achievements, which may refer to this kind of general.
The Yanmen cavalry who came to sneak attack did not let Zhao Hongrun, Qin Shaojun, Wang Ling and others wait for a long time, and at the same time as the largest battle broke out so far on the left and right flanks of the Korean army, the Yanmen cavalry came out from the middle of the two dirt slopes, as if to kill the Qin and Wei coalition forces by surprise.
But unfortunately, Zhao Hongrun, Qin Shaojun and Wang Ling have already paid attention to this cavalry, how can they let the latter succeed?
"Prepare for battle!"
As Wang Ling, the commander of the right wing of the Qin-Wei coalition army, gave an order, the Qin soldiers under his command suddenly shouted excitedly.
It is no wonder that after all, the army under Wang Ling is composed of five or six thousand Qin Guoge shield soldiers and more than 10,000 black face troops, and the military discipline of the black face army is undoubtedly the worst among the Qin and Wei coalition forces.
"It's finally here!"
"It's time for Lao Tzu to go into battle!"
"Then the damn Wei Gongzirun, we have been waiting for so long......"
The black-faced army of more than 10,000 people was making a lot of noise, and the noisy scene even made Qin Shaojun in the distance blush a little when he saw it: It's really too poor discipline!
But then again, although it seems that there is no military discipline at all, the bravery of the black-faced army can definitely be included in the top three in the Qin army, even compared to the Iron Eagle cavalry, after all, the soldiers of the black-faced army are all those who are eager to achieve meritorious service on the battlefield and improve their social status, and their dedication and pursuit of victory and meritorious service are extraordinary.
It is precisely for this reason that Zhao Hongyun will arrange for the Black Noodles Army to confront the Yanmen Cavalry, which is said to be the leading cavalry in South Korea.
In this regard, before the war, even Qin Shaojun thought that Zhao Hongrun was playing with one hand and the other in the other; to oneself and to the other; With the drama of his own subordinates and his superiors, the most threatening Iron Eagle Cavalry was arranged to deal with the weakest Handan army of the other side, and the weakest black-faced army of his own side was sent to meet the most threatening Yanmen cavalry in the Korean army, but in fact, Zhao Hongrun had no intention of sacrificing the black-faced army, he was very optimistic about this army.
In his opinion, the army of the Black Mask Army is not able to overthrow South Korea's premier Yanmen cavalry, after all, the Qin people who dare to join the Black Mask Army, the cannon fodder army, are outlaws who risk their lives to fight for the future - they are not even afraid of death, why are they afraid of the Yanmen cavalry?
"Here we go."
With Qin Shaojun's soft reminder, Zhao Hongrun turned his head to look at the right-wing battlefield.
I saw that under the command of Wang Ling, the main general of the right wing, 5,000 Ge Dun soldiers formed a zigzag phalanx, waiting for the arrival of the Yanmen cavalry.
As for the black-faced army, it seems to be arranged in the rear of the five thousand shield soldiers.
Actually sacrificed the people of the shield......
Zhao Hongrun was a little surprised by the arrangement of the Qin general's Wang Ling, but after thinking about it carefully, he had to admit that this formation was exactly the most suitable for the combination of the Ge Dun soldiers and the black face army.
"Raise your shield!"
Following the order of one of the lieutenants in the Ge Dun Army, the Ge Dun soldiers raised their shields one after another and approached closelyβthe same row of soldiers, close together, formed a shield wall with thick shields; And the soldiers in the back row actually used their shields against the backs of the soldiers in front, and the density of the entire formation was incredible.
When they were in the Huayin Plain, the Ge Dun soldiers, who were the backbone of the Qin army, relied on this close formation to resist the attack of the Yi tribe, killing the latter and throwing away their armor.
It's just that this set of tactics that resisted the cavalry of the Yi tribe back then, and now in the face of the Yanmen cavalry, will it work?
Under Zhao Hongrun's gaze, the Yanmen cavalry, which was charging towards the Ge Dun Soldier phalanx, suddenly divided into three teams halfway, and the left and right wings marched together, like a sharp trident.
Suddenly, Zhao Hongrun's face changed slightly, and he exclaimed: "Not good!" β
As soon as the words fell, I saw the three teams of Yanmen cavalry advancing together, and the left and right teams of cavalry actually raised their crossbows and launched a continuous burst of fire towards the Ge Dun Soldier phalanx in front.
Yanmen cavalry, actually crossbow cavalry?!
Zhao Hongrun exclaimed in his heart.
The so-called crossbow cavalry, this is just Zhao Hongrun's personal classification of troops, and its essence is similar to that of the archers, that is, light cavalry that relies on strong mobility and long-distance weapons such as bows and crossbows to kill the enemy and gradually consume the number of enemy troops.
This is a strategic unit, and they may not be able to dominate a war as much as heavy cavalry and heavy infantry, but from a strategic point of view, this cavalry can easily destroy any ranged and melee class.
Just like at this time, the Ge shield soldiers who lacked the protection of crossbowmen were completely in a passive situation under the diffuse of the Yanmen cavalry, and the powerful Han crossbow shot out a huge threat of sharp arrows, taking the lives of one Ge shield soldier after another.
I don't know how many Ge shield soldiers were killed on the spot by the crossbow arrows fired by the Yanmen cavalry.
"Poof, poof......"
With the sound of corpses falling to the ground one after another, the originally tight formation of the Ge shield soldiers immediately became full of holes, and at this moment, a group of Yanmen cavalry, as the sharp blade in the middle of the trident, raised their war spears and rushed into the defense line of the Ge shield soldiers.
Vaguely, as if there was a loud bang, the phalanx of the Ge shield soldiers was torn apart by the trident of the Yanmen cavalry.
Immediately, the trident of the Yanmen cavalry changed formation, and the cavalry on both wings bypassed the Ge Dun soldiers in the front of the zigzag, and continued to shoot at the center of the Ge Dun soldiers while galloping on their horses, causing more and more Ge Dun soldiers to be shot dead on the spot.
And just when these Ge shield soldiers were killed and fell to the ground, a team of Yanmen cavalry, as the sharp blade in the middle of the trident, fought hard, and almost effortlessly broke the defense line of the Ge shield soldiers.
It's simply ...... It's a one-sided slaughter.
Zhao Hongrun frowned deeply.
He was still speculating whether the Ge shield soldiers, who had defeated the Yi tribe with this dense shield wall tactic, would be able to resist the attack of the Yanmen cavalry this time, but he didn't expect that the fact was exactly the opposite of what he guessed, and the tight formation of the Ge shield soldiers was useless in front of the Yanmen cavalry.
β¦β¦ It's going to be penetrated.
Zhao Hongrun thought secretly.
As he expected, the front team of the Ge Dun soldiers' character defense line was easily torn apart by the Yanmen cavalry, causing the formation of the Ge Dun soldiers to be chaotic.
In the case of a favorable situation, the two teams of Yanmen cavalry, who were sharp blades on both sides of the trident, had put away their crossbows at this moment, drew their long swords one by one, and assisted the central team of lancers, in an attempt to completely cut through the defense line of the Ge shield soldiers.
With just a cup of tea, the defense line of the Ge Dun soldiers was killed by the Yanmen cavalry, and this kind of lethality was beyond imagination.
"Ji Run, evacuate here."
Qin Shaojun said with an ugly face.
She was originally very worried that the five thousand Ge shield soldiers and the more than 10,000 Huang Mian troops under the command of Wang Ling, the main general of the right wing, would not be able to stop the six or seven thousand Yanmen cavalry, but she never expected that the defense line composed of five thousand Ge shield soldiers would be so easily killed by the Yanmen cavalry.
Thinking that this terrible cavalry would be able to reach the main formation here after killing through the black-faced army, Qin Shaojun couldn't help but feel a little panicked in his heart.
She wasn't worried about herself, after all, as long as she reported her identity as the young monarch of the Qin State, it stands to reason that the Han people would not dare to harm him, otherwise, the Qin State would inevitably fight with South Korea endlessly.
She was worried about Zhao Hongrun beside her, after all, a while ago, Zhao Hongrun didn't care about the unwritten rules of the war between the two countries, and beheaded the Daijun Shouju Xin, who was respected by the Koreans as one of the ten heroes of the Northern Plains, and ordered to kill 20,000 Han pawns.
It is conceivable that once Zhao Hongrun falls into the hands of the Koreans, what will happen to him.
Compared with Qin Shaojun's panic, Zhao Hongrun gradually calmed down, because he found that the Ge Dun soldiers, who seemed to have been killed, actually turned into a crescent moon array after being broken through by the Yanmen cavalry, faintly covering the Yanmen cavalry in it.
"Wait. β¦β¦ General Wang Ling, it seems that there are some tactics. β
Zhao Hongrun spoke to appease Qin Shaojun.
He didn't believe that Wang Ling, who was strongly recommended by Yangquan Jun Yingyi, would be defeated by the Yanmen cavalry just like this, although the offensive of this Yanmen cavalry could be called the fastest and most explosive among all the cavalry that Zhao Hongrun had ever seen.
"Ji Run!"
Qin Shaojun looked at Zhao Hongrun angrily, and thought to himself: Who do you think I'm worried about?!
Zhao Hongrun didn't pay attention to Qin Shaojun, but just looked intently at the battlefield on the right flank, and he faintly found that the Yanmen cavalry, which was like a bamboo, was like a bamboo, and when it was in the belly of the black-faced army at this moment, it seemed that the horse's hooves were stuck in a quagmire and swamp, and the offensive was slowed down.
There was no way, because the black-faced army's life-threatening way of fighting made the Yanmen cavalry extremely uncomfortable.
Who would have imagined that when a cavalryman galloped past and killed a black-faced soldier head-on, at least four or five black-faced soldiers on both sides rushed up desperately and threw the Yanmen knight directly from his horse to the ground.
What's more, a famous black-faced soldier simply bit the throat of the Yanmen cavalry under him with his teeth.
"Whew-"
"Whew-"
With the neighing of horses, hundreds of Yanmen knights were knocked down by the deadly attack method of the black-faced army, and they were hacked to death with knives.
To the horror of the Yanmen knights, each of their fallen companions would be immediately beheaded and hung on the waist of a black-faced soldier.
"What's going on with this army?!"
One of the Yanmen cavalry leaders lost their voices in horror.
He couldn't comprehend the fact that they were a militia-like rabble, but they felt a pressure of extreme fear, as if these people were not human at all, but hungry beasts.
"Damn it! Dragged on! β
"Breakout! Breakthrough! β
The Yanmen cavalry, which was obviously in the face of the Ge shield soldiers, was facing the Qin State's black-faced army at this moment, but they showed a panicked appearance one by one.
It is also strange to say that in fact, the number of casualties of the black-faced army was at least twice that of the Yanmen cavalry, but for some reason, the black-faced army became more and more courageous, and the momentum gradually overwhelmed the Yanmen cavalry; On the other hand, the Yanmen cavalry, under the offensive method of the black-faced army, which seemed to exchange life for life, cowered, as if they were stuck in a quagmire and could not break free.
At this time, the Ge shield soldiers who had just been defeated had already surrounded them, further compressing the living space of the Yanmen cavalry.
Seeing this, Zhao Hongrun couldn't help but nodded, and said secretly in his heart: Sure enough, the black-faced army is the killer weapon that Wang Ling has high hopes for to deal with the Yanmen cavalry.
In his opinion, Wang Ling may have planned to let the Yanmen cavalry into his belly from the beginning, so that the black mask army could drag this extremely powerful cavalry, but the offensive ability of the Yanmen cavalry was beyond his imagination, so that the fake drama was really acted, so that the Ge Dun soldiers were almost killed by the Yanmen cavalry at the beginning.
However, the Yanmen cavalry also despised the black-faced army too much, and actually decided to break through head-on in front of this outlaw army.
ββ¦β¦ Win! β
Clenched his fists, Zhao Hongrun couldn't hide the joy in his heart, and couldn't help but show a little smile on his face.
But at this moment, suddenly a shout came from behind him: "Enemy-attackββ! β
Zhao Hongrun was stunned, and subconsciously turned his head to look, but was stunned to see another Yanmen cavalry, rushing towards his own formation.
It is less than a mile away from the Wei army here.
What the?!
Even if it was Zhao Hongrun, he couldn't help but show a look of horror at this moment, looking at the cavalry holding high the banner of the Yanmen Army in disbelief.
When? β¦β¦ Where did this Yanmen cavalry come from?!
Zhao Hongrun was dumbfounded, and his thoughts were stunned.
At this time, Feng Ting, the general not far from him, was also shocked, pointed to the cavalry that came out of nowhere, and shouted in horror and inexplicably: "His Royal Highness King Su, that is Li Mu, the guard of Yanmen!" β
"What?" Zhao Hongrun looked in the direction pointed by Feng Ting, and sure enough, he saw that at the head of the Yanmen cavalry, there was an extraordinary general of the Korean army, looking at him expressionlessly.
"Kill!"
Under Zhao Hongrun's shocked gaze, the Han general in the distance raised his hand and pointed at the main formation of the Qin-Wei coalition army, and ordered in a deep voice: "Capture Wei Gongzirun alive, and kill the rest!" β
In an instant, the Yanmen cavalry crossed the distance of only one mile and killed in front of the thousands of Shangshui soldiers who stayed in the formation.
It is a pity that there are many Shangshui soldiers, paying attention to the battle situation on the frontal battlefield and the right flank battlefield, and they did not expect that a cavalry would be killed in the diagonal rear, and they were cut off by the Yanmen cavalry when they were almost on guard.
"Defend! Defend! β
"Protect Your Highness!"
Under the panicked exclamations of the soldiers of the Shangshui Army, Zhao Hongrun stared intently at the Yanmen cavalry that suddenly killed.
Even if it was him, he was extremely nervous at the moment.
Approached by an army, he'd never seen anything like it!
