Chapter 246: The Battle of Shao Ping (18)

"This person is not simple, rashly attacking the formation will either be killed or wounded, and our army will have no chance of winning at all!"

Bai Liyan (Wei Xian) sighed for a long time, and then Lu Gao said:

"General Wei, the rebel infantry formation is less than three miles away from our army, should we retreat!"

"Withdraw! The whole army was ordered to turn around and break through to the southwest quickly, and not to fall in love. General Lu Gao's crossbow riders took the lead, and those who dared to block the way, with a group of fifty people, released arrows for me, not seeking to hit but only to open the way, you understand! ”

"The last general commands!"

The Black Turban Army has formed an encirclement from all sides, the south is the weakest, the horses have recovered a lot of physical strength at this time, and suddenly attacked, the physical strength of the Black Turban Army horses will be exhausted under the pursuit, Bailiyan took advantage of the situation to escape, and went west to join Ye Xin's army.

The Xian army abandoned the city and left, greatly surprising the supernatural king, and when he was in doubt, a group of cavalry that had just met head-on suddenly turned around and killed from the southwest, and had already gone away.

Hearing the news, the face behind the golden mask in the chariot twitched faintly twice, and suppressed the anger in his chest and asked the scout:

"Do you know where the soldiers and horses of the Xian army escaped just now?"

"Respect the Heavenly King, it is believed to be the elite cavalry of Wei Xian's subordinate in the vanguard battalion of the Xian Army, and the combat power is extremely fierce, and more than 6,000 people have not been able to stop him, and more than 500 people have been lost."

The scout said quickly, and the Divine Power Heavenly King was silent for a moment and then said:

"Explore the movements of Ye Xin's department again, and Shao Ping will report to me at dusk!"

"No, obey the orders of the Heavenly King!"

The scout left the chariot and turned over and walked away, and the supernatural king spread out the topographic map on the case, and the eyes in the mask looked at An Xing in the northwest of Shaoping.

"It's really that easy to rob me of my grain!"

Secretly said in his heart, the supernatural king shouted:

"Someone!"

"The last general!" The Chinese officer knelt down on one knee and saluted.

"Captain Shen Dusk came to see me quickly."

"No!"

After a short while, a burly warrior urged his horse to come, stopped under the chariot and turned over, and immediately stepped forward and saluted:

"The last general, Shen Duchi, will see the Heavenly King."

"General Shen is talking in the car!"

"No!"

Shen Duchi walked into the car tent and knelt on one knee in front of the desk to listen to the order.

"General Shen, immediately go to Shaoping to take over all the cavalry, and then go east and go north to Juxia south of Anxing to set up an ambush." The Divine Power Heavenly King pointed to the map and said: "Our army's grain and grass will be shipped from Anxing, and the Xian army will abandon Shaoping this time, which must be expected to be insufficient for our army's grain and grass, and the city will be exhausted by many people, so they will abandon the city."

It will definitely rob our grain road, cut off our army's back road, and then disturb our army's heart, so you lead your troops to Juxia to set up an ambush, annihilate some of its men and horses, and ensure that our army's grain and grass arrive in Shaoping smoothly. ”

"Heavenly King, the cavalry of the Xian army is wandering uncertainly, and most of the food looted is mainly fired, if it is set on fire, how will it be dealt with?"

"Shao Ping has 20,000 cavalry, 50,000 infantry troops, An Xing does not transport grain and people, the Xian army has nearly 30,000 cavalry, more than 80,000 donkeys and horses, and a small amount of baggage will not fall out of the nest, so you lead 20,000 cavalry to ambush, and before its grain robbers and horses encounter the baggage camp, they will destroy the people and horses who rob the grain, so that you can keep the grain and grass."

"The last general commands!"

Shen Duchi turned around and wanted to leave, but the supernatural power shouted to him again:

"Slow, the vanguard battalion of the Xian army is unusual, its commander Wei Xian is ruthless and sinister, you must not underestimate the enemy, this heavenly king will give you a tip, before the two armies fight, you can only disassemble it, you must not advance, let alone look at it, General Shen can remember."

"The end will remember."

"Okay, this is the warrant of this Heavenly King, you immediately go to Shaoping to take over the cavalry!"

Once the grain road is cut off, nearly 300,000 people in Shaoping City will have to run out of food in January, and as long as the Xian army continues to attack the grain road nearby to besiege Shaoping, the Black Turban Army will be defeated without a fight.

Before dark, the Black Turban Army took over Shaoping, wiped out all the Xian troops within a radius of ten miles, and rescued nearly 2,500 Sun soldiers who were detained.

Under the guard of two thousand elite escorts, the chariot of the Divine Power Heavenly King broke away from the headquarters and entered the city in advance.

After the destruction of Shaoping City, the city was in chaos, and the "Letter to the People of the World" distributed by the Xian army was posted and scattered everywhere, and the first thing the Black Turban Army did when they entered the city was to search for such "fallacies" throughout the city.

At the same time, additional envoys were sent to gather the people to worship and pray, hoping to appease the people with religious superstition and bloody suppression of discontent.

After dark, the supernatural king was stationed in the Taishou Zhizhi, and Song He, the commander of the ten thousand men who was in charge of the city's security, escorted a batch of Xianjun equipment to the Taishou Mansion in a large cart to present the supernatural king:

"Respect the Heavenly King, when cleaning up the battlefield, I found some special armor and blades, which are of superior quality, far above our army."

"This Heavenly King has long known about this, and it is a kind of soft armor with iron rings, but it is invulnerable. The blade is indestructible, it is made of first-class fine iron, and it was created by Wei Xian, the pioneer officer of the Xianjun Pioneer Battalion. Present the item and let everyone see it. ”

"No!"

Song He ordered people to put more than a dozen pieces of half-body chain mail and horizontal knives on the table, and randomly picked out a horizontal knife, the edge of which was still brand new, and it was almost difficult to believe that it was a weapon that had drunk countless blood.

Song He said again:

"Heavenly King, the people in the city have been very bewitched by the Xian army, and the spells of the holy envoy have also failed, I don't know what the Heavenly King has to do."

The Divine Power Heavenly King looked at Song He coldly through the mask, Song He suddenly felt a chill in his heart, took a step back, and didn't dare to look at the cold gaze again.

After a long time, the Divine Power Heavenly King put down the horizontal knife in his hand and said:

"Whoever does not respect the command will be killed."

Song He was taken aback and hurriedly asked:

"Among them, there are not only Xianguo people, but also Sun Guo and other foreigners, if they are all killed, I am afraid it will be inappropriate."

"Then kill the people of Xianguo first, whoever starts to kill whoever first, the man kills the female prostitute, the father kills, the daughter pretends to be a prostitute, whoever reports can get a woman, and the meritorious can enter the temple as an official, and enter the Holy Order Division to serve the monarch's father. Such a simple thing, do you still want this king to teach you? ”

Hearing the cold voice of the Divine Power Heavenly King, Song He's face was as pale as paper, and he only nodded silently, and said without confidence:

"No, the last will do."

"Slow, have you caught the Xianjun alive, especially the Xianjun Pioneer Battalion Wei Xian's department."

"Respect the Heavenly King, a total of twenty-three angry people were caught, and after preliminary interrogation, no one from the pioneer camp was found. But ......"

"But what!" The Divine Power Heavenly King said coldly.

"However, this morning I really did not expect that the Xian army would go out of the city to meet the battle, so our army was not well prepared, and was caught off guard by its killing, with more than 4,000 killed and more than 3,000 wounded, a total of 8,000 people.

At present, more than 2,600 corpses and wounded soldiers of the Xian army have been found, and there are more sporadic ones, roughly about 3,000 people. The ferocity of combat power is invincible to our army. In particular, the vanguard battalion and another part of the Xian army had a tactical tactic that the generals had never seen in their lives, and they were not entangled with our cavalry at all, sometimes scattered, sometimes converged, erratic, and difficult to rob and kill. Every time, he is left behind by him, and it is difficult to chase down. ”

Song He detailed the battle situation between the two armies outside the north gate of Shaoping this morning, and the Xian army was outnumbered, but with a one-to-three result, the black turban army was embarrassed, and even the supernatural king was silent for a while when he heard this result.

He remembered once again that Ruitianzhai was lost in July last year, and Wei Xian, who was still the vanguard officer of the Guangxin Army at that time, only had 1,000 men and horses in his hands, but with chain mail and never-before-seen tactics, he withstood the attack of 3,000 people at most at one time.

Now that I think about it, it has only been a year, and it has grown to 5,000 people, and its combat power is more than three times that of the Black Turban Army. In the long run, even if the Xian army is useless, if this person is allowed to command a part of the Xian army, the Black Turban Army will have no advantage at all. If you can't win on the battlefield, you must get rid of it as soon as possible.

After a long silence, the supernatural power groaned and said:

"Behead all the commanders who lost in today's first battle against the enemy, and hang their heads in front of the camp to set an example!"

“…… Promise! ”

Song He gasped, and cold sweat broke out on his back.

That night, Shaoping went on a killing spree in the city, executing more than 3,000 rebels and thousands of women storming the brothel camp. At the same time, Bai Liyan found Ye Xin's department in the middle of the night, rushing out all the way and breaking more than 200 people, and when he arrived at the camp, he was exhausted.

"The last general, Wei Xian, see Governor Ye!"

"Excuse me, how many men do you have left?"

"There were less than 3,800 people, and 1,000 people have been lost so far in the morning."

"Well, General Wei has worked hard, let's go down and rest first, and then discuss it on the road tomorrow."

"Metropolitan Governor, there will be an urgent military situation report to the Metropolitan Governor, and I implore the Metropolitan Governor to accommodate you."

"Say it."

"Governor Xie."

Bai Liyan explained in detail what he had seen in the afternoon, and concluded that the person who came to Shaoping to sit in town must be one of the three heavenly kings on the banks of the Yongxing River.

"It is not known who is leading the troops this time, but our army has to guard against the innovative formations and weapons of the enemy. One day, the two armies will have to face each other, and our army will most likely suffer losses. ”

"Then we have to wait until we return to the Yongxing River and make a decision after Zhao Shuai is clear. Now you are worried that the enemy commander will not come well? ”

"Exactly, the Jin army of Lei Cheng can watch the main force of the Black Turban Army under their noses go south, isn't it strange that such a bizarre thing is not strange, if it is not a clever plan, how can it hide from the Jin army, this is one of them.

Second, the use of horses to transport soldiers from two places is not necessary for those who are proficient in the art of arithmetic, so this person is extremely calculating and should not be underestimated. There are all kinds of indications that this person is a person who is good at making decisions and plots, and he must not be left unguarded. ”

Since Bailiyan's debut, it is the first time to suffer such a big loss, losing more than 20% of the troops in one day, even in the battle of Jiangdong that year, there is no precedent for losing so many men and horses in one battle.

I can't help but even Bailiyan began to wonder if she had kicked a big iron plate, and her logic was not enough.
