Chapter 356: Fierce General
Therefore, when the left king and the right king are defeated and retreat, these stragglers will definitely be the help of themselves and others in the future.
Yuan Xi thought for a while, and then asked about the current situation of the grassland, knowing that the reason why the war had been fought for so long was more because the two sides were facing each other.
"Strategist, I have a plan to break the enemy quickly, but I may have taken some risks, can you help me see if this plan is feasible?"
The judge was stunned, but he was not too disappointed, so he asked softly: "My lord, please speak." ”
......
In 197 A.D., in early June, Yuan Xi ordered the left and right armies to once again approach the grassland defense soldiers and horses of Kebineng, and at the same time, Yuan Xi himself led an army of 10,000 to directly fight with the 30,000 soldiers and horses of Kebineng, who had been confronting him outside the city.
Launched an offensive to fight again with Xianbei.
Yuan Xi was dressed in silver armor, standing on the chariot, and commanded the army to begin to approach layer by layer.
This was the first time Yuan Xi took the initiative to attack, and he was somewhat cautious in the face of the Xianbei Iron Cavalry on the grassland.
The army took one step at a time, the armor swayed, and the huge shield made a thumping sound from time to time.
Xianbei's 30,000 soldiers and horses, looking at the Kuancheng soldiers and horses who took the initiative to attack, were somewhat surprised, but after experiencing the fate of 5,000 soldiers and horses being wiped out last time, they also raised their vigilance.
"How, General, shall we fight or not?" A young general beside Thorton asked.
Thorton was one of the few fierce generals around Kebineng, he licked his tongue, and looked at the other party, although the formation was neat, but the number was only 10,000, and the archers accounted for nearly a third. He suddenly felt that this was a good opportunity to make meritorious contributions.
Before coming, Kebineng told Suodun not to be fooled, just compress the soldiers and horses of Kuancheng in the city, and not take the initiative to face the battle.
Now that the other party has taken the initiative to go out of the city to provoke and dare to take the initiative to attack, Thorton feels that it is time to catch the other party off guard.
But he was also clever and commanded: "Beat the drums, order the right and left, attack together, and charge the enemy." ”
He himself led the army in the middle to stabilize the rear.
In this way, even if the two soldiers and horses are defeated by the other party, Suoton has the remaining soldiers and horses to defeat Yuan Xi's remnants.
This time, not all of the elite iron cavalry brought over by Thorton were actually only five thousand iron cavalry, not the elite kind, and the rest were infantry.
On the grassland, although there are many horses, there are also infantry.
Yuan Xi saw that the other party began to fight, his eyes narrowed slightly, and with a wave of the command flag in his hand, the Xuanjia heavy army suddenly turned from a phalanx into a long snake formation, revealing the archers walking behind.
The enemy army rushed quickly, and Yuan Xi's command flag waved again, shouting: "Release the arrow!" ”
After a few waves of arrow rain, the effect was very small, and this time the Xianbei soldiers and horses all held a small round shield in their hands, which could avoid a lot of damage.
Yuan Xi looked at the small round shield, his eyes lit up, it was really good to use it to defend the cavalry against the rain of arrows, but it was useless for the war horse.
Yuan Xi's command flag danced, and the long snake formation soon turned into a triangular arrow defense.
Under this kind of defense, the Xuanjia army, which was used to block the enemy's troops and horses in front, would be sacrificed even if they were wearing heavy armor, and their sacrifice was to delay the enemy's precious impact speed.
And it was the safest thing to do, but looking at the enemy army that was getting closer and closer, and listening to the deafening last roar of life from the Xuanjia army at the front, Yuan Xi couldn't help but close his eyes.
"Bang!"
The fierce collision between the war horse and the shield, and the violent friction between human flesh and spear, made the Xianbei war horse in front and the Xuanjia army in front disappear in the surging crowd almost immediately.
This style of play is really tragic.
Looking at the disappeared lives one by one, if it weren't for wanting to quickly end the Xianbei fight, Yuan Xi really didn't want to do this, because this was completely in his own shortcomings, dealing with the enemy's good place.
But if you don't do this, the battle of Xianbei will be extended for an unknown amount of time.
This is something he does not want to see.
The momentum of Xianbei's galloping horses, which was also their own means of raising their own morale, was now stopped, and suddenly turned into a hand-to-hand combat between the two armies.
However, this battle soon showed a one-sided trend, except for the shield soldiers and spearmen at the front, most of Yuan Xi's Xuanjia soldiers were actually heavy cavalry wearing iron armor. After such a face, the light cavalry on the opposite side fell into a heavy white-knuckle battle, and flexibility was already useless.
The sword slashed at the body of the heavy cavalry, and it did not have much effect at all.
Yuan Xi looked at the scene in front of him, although the two sides were still in the stalemate stage, he knew that in fact, it was all because of the large number of people on the other side.
Yuan Xi shouted, "Xu Chu." ”
"The last general!" Xu Chu had already seen it.
"Go and kill the general in front of you, and then lead your Xuanjia heavy cavalry to rush forward, completely disperse the enemy troops at the rear, and take his handsome banner!"
Xu Chu received the order, waved his big hand, and the soldiers around him rushed out with him.
Although Xu Chu was also wearing heavy armor, he was not like ordinary soldiers, he looked very bulky, but rushed into the crowd, like a dragon entering the sea, and when the knife fell, the lives of more than a dozen humble soldiers had disappeared under his war horse.
The speed of Xu Chu's impact was too fast, causing the pro-soldiers behind him to be completely unable to keep up, and Yuan Xi was worried that he would lose, so he glanced at Dian Wei.
Dian Wei received the order, holding a double iron shovel, and the war horse under his crotch neighed, and instantly rushed into the enemy formation.
The fierce general is undoubtedly the most conspicuous existence on the battlefield, Xu Chu went all the way into a no-man's land, and was soon discovered by the Xianbei general who was commanding 20,000 soldiers and horses to fight. “
The personal soldiers around him swarmed up, and suddenly Xu Chu was surrounded by hundreds of soldiers and horses.
Although Xu Chu is fierce and brave, every time he goes down, he is harvesting the lives of the enemy, but the enemy army is large after all. He was not in danger, but he could not get out of it for a while.
General Xianbei was slightly relaxed when he saw that the fierce general was surrounded, but when he saw the people surrounding him, a small half of them were killed, and his nervousness rose again.
Gritting his teeth, he secretly took out a bow and arrow from his horse, and quietly aimed at Xu Chu, who was constantly strangling his own soldiers.
After aiming for a while, just as he wanted to release the arrow, he suddenly felt a pain in his lower abdomen, and then he felt the power quickly disappear from his inner body, and he fell off the war horse with a "poof", and he didn't know how he died before he died.
Dian Wei slashed at the enemy soldiers as he quickly ran towards the corpse of the general.
