Chapter 319: A Dangerous Situation
In the era when there is no radar, the field of vision is everything, without the field of vision, no command can be carried out, this is true for the Liao State, for the Western Xia, even more so, they can only prepare in advance, fixed attack and defense, encountered Zhou Wenxiu, holding a compass, but also to protect the mad cavalry, it is really the deadliest.
The reason why the kamikaze is a kamikaze is because of the sudden generation, but the energy is not enough to make him go on for a long time, and it does not last long, at most it is less than half an hour.
In half an hour, Zhou Wenxiu broke through 4 phalanxes in a row, at least more than 10,000 troops, which were chiseled through by him, according to the compass and feeling, he should not be far from Yuan Hao's big tent.
But the defense in front seems to be getting weaker and weaker, he has determined the direction as much as possible, and is prepared to go to the place where the resistance is most intense, the direction is correct, but after a fierce battle of about a stick of incense in front, for so long, no one has been encountered.
There were some doubts in his heart, but Zhou Wenxiu didn't dare to change the direction easily, and it was not easy for him to be able to bring the people around him together under the premise of not seeing clearly.
Although he can't see it comprehensively because of the dense fog, he feels that at least half of the people have lost or fallen behind, and under this premise, a large-scale disguise is not only detrimental to the whole, but also easy to lose more people.
Zhou Wenxiu's feeling is right, his position has surpassed the Chinese army, in the calculation and feeling, there are slightly mistakes, his initial direction is correct, and he rushed directly to the big tent of the Chinese army, and in the battle, there was a slight change.
In Yuan Hao's arrangement, when the wind rose, there was a slight change, the pro-guard team shrank inward, forming a defensive camp, and the outer army turned outward, forming a gap of about 150 steps.
This gap is the fundamental reason for misleading Zhou Wenxiu, he didn't expect that there would be such a gap in the Chinese army, and when adjusting the direction, it began to deviate.
The slightest mistake is a thousand miles, on the battlefield, that's it, he and Yuan Hao's big tent passed by, and even when he passed by, he also had a little contact with Yuan Hao's personal guards.
It was the one that had crossed Yuan Hao's position and touched the position of the tail, and in the battle, the most tragic one was Yuan Hao's personal team.
These carefully selected, in Western Xia can be said to be the most fierce combat effectiveness, caught off guard, suffered the biggest blow, 2000 people against 2000 people, in the confrontation of real knives and guns, Zhou Wenxiu's department is like a sharp scalpel, directly penetrating the defense line of the guards, but the stubborn resistance of the guards, or in Zhou Wenxiu's department, fiercely tore off a part, almost 300 horses, scattered with the main force.
The combat effectiveness of Zhou Wenxiu's department lies in the protection and overall attack power, when this cavalry appears in the image of the whole, the power is endless, but the rest, in the face of at least 20,000 counterattacks from the guards, they are at most replaced by a few, and then finally lost and captured, this is the biggest defeat of Zhou Wenxiu's department in this short war.
The wind gradually dissipated, the strength was not as strong as before, the yellow sand in the sky began to gradually dissipate, the vision began to recover, and the entire battlefield was in a mess.
is still in the anxious part, where is it in Xiao Hui's camp, if Zhou Wenxiu is the only camp in the Liao State to attack, where is Xiao Hui, is the camp of the Western Xia attack, in addition to the personal guards, thirty or forty thousand iron harriers, and some infantry with cooperation, under the protection of the yellow sand, launched a crazy attack on where, and in the end, it was barely blocked by Xiao Hui, and it is still continuing.
In just half an hour, where a tragic attack was carried out, all the soldiers could only move forward or attack, leaving 30,000 dead and wounded on that short position.
Among them, Xiao Huibu lost 12,000, and Western Xia lost 18,000, at this time, the two sides that killed the red eye were still continuing, and at least 6,000 iron harriers were rushing into battle.
However, their timing was not good, when they rushed to the halfway point, the field of vision had gradually recovered, and the cavalry that had accelerated could not turn around at all, but could only rush forward, and the Liao siege troops, which had not played a role before, had a large number of infantry crossbows and bed crossbows.
These weapons, which did not dare to play a role easily when there was no vision, immediately showed their role, and they were already impatient, and began to shoot wildly, at least more than 2,000 riders, and were hit and fell to the ground.
In the gallop of fast horses, as long as the horse falls, there is no possibility of survival, whether it is trampling, or the loss after falling off the horse, it is not something that the cavalry can bear.
After a lot of losses, these two parts of the Iron Harrier did not get close to Xiao Hui's camp, it was a completely prepared camp, and it was impossible to be easily defeated, and after that, the Tielin Army and the Leather Room Army were also prepared, and if they persisted like this, no one might be able to escape.
The Western Xia army began to shrink, the kamikaze has failed, with the help of the kamikaze, their losses are almost twice that of the Liao army, although in terms of overall combat power, the Western Xia still has a certain advantage, but the individual combat power has been highlighted.
As soon as he contracted like this, Zhou Wenxiu, who was in the depths of the camp of the Western Xia Army, stood out, he had never been a cavalry unit, and when facing several times, or even dozens of times the enemy, he behaved as well as Zhou Wenxiu, such a small force, at least 15,000 troops, penetrated deep into the interior, and his front was a mess.
Can't let him go, this is the only thought in Yuan Hao's heart, Yuan Hao, whose heart is dripping blood, quickly gave an order, and many elites, including the pro-guard army and the Iron Harrier, began to act separately.
Zhou Wenxiu also found out that he was in a bad position, he rushed a little, Yuan Hao's Chinese army, almost 7 miles behind him, he had already rushed over, there were less than 1,000 people left around him, fortunately, there were no major casualties.
In fact, in any of the charges of the fast horse group, it is impossible to survive the fall of the horse, of course, the losses of the heavy cavalry are not so much, but there are about four or five hundred people, who are scattered with the main force, and they are scattered in this area.
The effect caused by Zhou Wenxiu's department was amazing, 2,000 personal guard troops, 6,000 iron harriers, 2,000 tribes and 3,000 cavalry, 13,000 people, were disabled by 2,000 of them, and suffered heavy casualties, at least directly causing more than 5,000 casualties.
At this moment, Zhou Wenxiu was deeply encircled, he almost rushed to the rear of the Western Xia army, for this and inside, caused such a terrible loss of troops, especially 2000 personal guards, how could Yuan Hao let go, 3000 personal guards, plus 2 iron harrier troops, a total of 9000 people began to approach Zhou Wenxiu, they divided into a fan-shaped area, encircled Zhou Wenxiu, and other troops were also moving here.
In the moment when his vision was broadened, Zhou Wenxiu knew that it was not good, he missed the best opportunity, he was not able to succeed in beheading, the distance of 7 miles, among thousands of troops, could not break through the defenses at all, and even himself, there was a huge danger.
Now that there are enemies on all sides, he can say that it is the most dangerous, with less than 1,000 cavalry left, and no ability to fight against 9,000 Iron Harriers.
Xiao Hui also noticed Zhou Wenxiu's state, and in all fairness, Zhou Wenxiu gave him a huge surprise again, and sent Zhou Wenxiu to attack from the flank, in order to contain it.
This method of attack, before the kamikaze did not rise, as long as Zhou Wenxiu could maintain a certain linkage with Xiao Huibu, and even communicate and exchange with each other, this is the safest method, which not only ensures huge pressure, but also easy to improvise, as long as the Xixia Department exposes the weak link, he can quickly react and attack the weak link.
But the kamikaze rose, he couldn't be so cooperative, Zhou Wenxiu chose to behead, under this tactic, he did achieve huge results, it can be said that the damage caused by the entire Xiao Hui Department was not as big as Zhou Wenxiu's 2,000-strong troops, but now, the distance between them was too far.
In half an hour, Zhou Wenxiu broke through the obstruction of four or five troops and went deep into 20 miles away, which was almost the result of the fast horse galloping with all his might, 20 miles away, separated by the heavy army of Western Xia, and the situation of the Liao army itself was not very good, and he had no time to help him.
This is Xiao Hui's optimistic commander, in the situation of the battlefield, he can only watch, and all he can do is to continue to put pressure on the Western Xia Army and ensure that the Western Xia Army does not transfer people from the front line to enter the attack on Zhou Wenxiu.
But the Western Xia did not use all their strength to attack Xiao Huibu, on Yuan Hao's side, there were at least thirty or forty thousand Western Xia cavalry, and behind, there were tens of thousands of foot soldiers, and Yuan Hao still did not hesitate to mobilize in such a situation, obviously, Zhou Wenxiu's department was too damaging to them, and it was impossible for him to leave Zhou Wenxiu.
Xiao Hui quickly mobilized, and the only cavalry was also mobilized, with the help of archers and follow-up troops, the tens of thousands of Western Xia troops who were responsible for the attack were stubbornly entangled, preventing them from retreating, and joining the battle to encircle and suppress Zhou Wenxiu, and the Tielin Army and the Leather Room Army in the rear were also coming.
As the most combat-effective soldier in the Liao army, they did not play a role at all in this battle, and they also felt that something was not good, especially Liao Xingzong, which was equivalent to being completely wiped out, and they were even more violent, and they couldn't care about anything else, and they were bent on a decisive battle in Western Xia.
Xiao Hui adjusted everything, he guaranteed that the main force of Western Xia, which was close to 80,000, could not easily withdraw from the battlefield, and made Yuan Hao not dare to draw too much strength, otherwise on the frontal battlefield, once it broke through, Western Xia would fall into a crisis.
After all, it is impossible to withdraw the nearly 10,000 main forces that are being mobilized now, and how to get through this level depends on Zhou Wenxiu's choice.
