Chapter 36: The Battle of the Three Peaks Mountain (3)
The 150,000 army was divided into three teams, Xiao Yi's first team, the general Xiahoudun's first team, and Cao Cao's own team, which took turns to launch a fierce attack on the 'Tianwang Peak'!
Cao's army has a clear division of labor, three teams of men, one team to attack, one team to prepare, and the other team to eat meat and rest in the back, rotating every two hours to ensure that the physical strength of the soldiers is always at the peak!
"Kill, conquer ****, the big man will win!" In order to boost morale, Xiao Yi dismounted and fought on foot, leading a group of guards to fight with Yuan's army on the hillside, constantly attacking the opponent's defense line.
There will be no greed for life, and the soldier will have the heart of death!
Most of the governors are still like this, who doesn't play with their lives in the whole army, not to mention that the reward for this battle is really rich to the extreme, cutting off a head is ten gold, Cao Jun's soldiers 'roared' and rushed forward, some of the guys who are not afraid of death even rushed to the enemy group, their own death is nothing, as long as they can cut a few more, it is worth it to earn a family business for their wives and sons, and soon many soldiers are hung with the heads of the beheaded, as many as five or six, covered in blood, and still rushing forward like crazy!
The soldiers are greedy for gold, and the generals naturally have a higher vision, and their goals are all on the generals of the Yuan army, a human head, a first-class title!
Zhang Liao originally used a spear, but the mountain road was rugged and it was inconvenient to perform, so he simply changed to a ghost-headed broadsword, slashed and killed, invincible, and even cut off the heads of three generals of the Yuan army, and he didn't care about the bloody robes on his body, and the three heads were promoted to three levels in a row.
Manly, big husband, make a contribution, in one fell swoop!
Just as he was proud, he saw the figure of Dian Wei, a warrior like a bear, with a double halberd in his hand dancing like a wheel. Crushing the Yuan army in front, even if he is not hacked to death, he has to be smashed, there are already seven or eight human heads on his body, and he is still rushing forward like a mad tiger to kill, everywhere he goes, the soldiers of the Yuan army are wailing and hiding everywhere, and no one dares to come forward to fight!
"Seven or eight? It's almost time to seal the capital pavilion! Zhang Liao's eyes turned red in an instant, and then he looked at the three heads hanging on his body, "It's too little, it's a shame, no, I also want to make meritorious service, I also want to be a marquis, kill!" ”
Fortunately, there are enough Yuan Jun, as long as you cut a few more, the credit will be there, and the marquis will also have it!
Cao Jun was not afraid of death and killed forward, but Yuan Shu on the mountain was miserable, 250,000 horses were evenly distributed on the three peaks, although there were more Tianwang Peaks, but it was not more than 100,000, and they were all exhausted and exhausted soldiers who had endured all night, and their combat effectiveness could be imagined.
Because of the lack of troops, Yuan Shu did not dare to divide the men and horses into three teams like Cao Cao, take turns to rest, and even two teams were not successful, otherwise he would not be able to resist the fierce offensive of the Cao army at all, and the whole army could only be pressed to the death, and the result was that the more soldiers fought, the more tired they became, the weaker their combat effectiveness became, and the casualties were getting bigger and bigger!
"Kill ,...... Boom! Boom! ”
The two armies fought from early morning to noon, and then fought until the sun turned west, the dead bodies were everywhere on the hillside, and the blood gathered into small streams, flowing everywhere, and the Yuan army was defeated and retreated, and finally some could not support it!
"Your Majesty, let the men and horses of the left and right peaks support, if you continue to fight, the soldiers will not be able to support it!" Huainan's 'four ministers' ran over together, Li Feng, Chen Ji, Le Zhuo, and Liang Gang, all of them were torn in their clothes and armor, their faces were covered with blood, and even the sword in their hands was broken, and they were used as crutches.
"Damn, sound the horn, let the soldiers and horses of the left and right peaks come over to support, damn Cao Mengde, why did he bite the lonely 'Tianwang Peak' and not let go?" Yuan Shu couldn't understand that he had a lot of superiority in troops, so why was he killed and retreated?
………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………
The Yuan army on the Jade Girl Peak and Baihua Peak is indeed very comfortable, the war lasted for a day, they were a day of spectators, not that they didn't want to participate in the war, but Cao Jun didn't care about them at all, at first the soldiers were still stretching their necks to watch the battle, and then they were tired and came up, so they simply found a place in the mountains to sleep up, anyway, the military order they received was to guard the mountain, what does it have to do with me to fight and live outside?
"Quick, get up, the whole team, Your Majesty has an order, gallop to the aid of Tianwang Peak!" After receiving the order to attack, the captains of the Yuan army were busy gathering their subordinates, ...... in caves, under rocks, and in grass nests, pulling people around like looking for rabbits......
"Tianwang Peak wants to be saved, but the defense line he is stationed in can't be ignored!" Therefore, the guards of the two peaks each sent 30,000 horses to try to attack from the two wings and share the pressure of Yuan Shu, but it was easy to go up the mountain and difficult to go down, and if you wanted to rush from the left and right peaks to the Tianwang Peak in the middle, the road was not so easy to walk.
The first thing to face is the ravines and ravines that he dug before, in order to strengthen the defense line, Yuan Jun has worked hard, the deeper the ditch is dug, the better, the narrower the road blockage, the better, turning over pits, traps, wooden thorns, tripping horse ropes, ......etc., are even denser, all over the hillside, originally wanted to prepare a big meal for Cao Jun, but now it has become a stumbling block that hinders his attack!
It's really self-inflicted, digging your own pit and picking it yourself!
After receiving the order, it took a whole hour for the left and right peaks to barely form an attack formation, but before they could attack, the battle on Tianwang Peak changed dramatically, and the first line of defense of the Yuan army, which was also the largest and strongest defense line, collapsed ---under the repeated attacks of the Cao army!
"The Great Han will win!"
"The Great Han will win!"
The defeated soldiers of the Yuan army retreated to the mountains like a tide, knives, guns, swords, halberds, gongs and drums, flags, thrown all over the mountains, no matter how the officers who supervised the war scolded to no avail, many of the defeated soldiers even secretly to the officers to get rid of the way, the situation was in chaos, taking this opportunity, Xiao Yi waved his troops to follow and kill, and broke the second and third lines of defense, completely drove the Yuan army to the mountain......
Under the remnant sun, the Tianwang Peak is all red, it is dyed red with blood, a day of fierce fighting, the soldiers of the two armies are at least more than 30,000 dead and wounded here, the hillside is covered with corpses, stumps and broken arms, you can see it everywhere, some key fortresses, the dead body is several layers thick, you press me, I press you, a piece of flesh and blood is blurred, you can't tell who is who!
"Tragic! What a victory! ”
Xiao Yi did not launch another night attack, but just asked the soldiers to clean the battlefield and clean their wounds, a day of fierce bloody battles, even if they could hold on physically, their spirits had reached the critical point of collapse, and the mountains of corpses and rivers of blood, even the most hard-hearted people would inevitably be sad.
The firehead soldiers brought up a large basket of food, flatbread, rice, pork ribs, broth, and half a pound of good wine per person, the soldiers didn't care about cleaning up their bodies, and rushed up, many people didn't even wipe the dirty blood and brains on their hands, grabbed the food and stuffed it into their mouths, and when they started a battle, their lives were not their own, and eating one more bite was a mouthful, who knows if they can eat the next meal!
As the governor of the unified army, Xiao Yi's treatment is naturally better, in addition to fine wine and fat, he can also take a bath and change clothes.
The armor was removed, and the soldiers were responsible for scrubbing, the thick blood scale fell down layer by layer, no matter how hard the brush was still red, the robe on the body could not be wanted, soaked in blood, blown by the wind, dry and hard, could not take off, the head of the guard Xiaobin had to cut him off with a dagger, and then used the skin bag to hold water, poured it from the head, and washed it six times before revealing Xiao Yi's true face, he was lucky, he was not injured, the blood stains were all someone else's, there was a fight today, and the number of dead souls in his hands increased by at least another hundred......
"Metropolitan Governor, Yuan Jun has lost his heart, why don't I attack the mountain overnight and capture Yuan Shu alive!" The two blood men swaggered over, they couldn't see clearly at all, except for the black and white eyes, the rest was blood-red, even the teeth were no exception, no need to ask, when the bloody battle was fierce, it must have quenched the thirst with the blood of the enemy.
"Thirsty for knife blood, trapped in the saddle!"
This is not an empty word, fighting on the battlefield, the physical consumption is large, sweating a lot, people are easy to be thirsty, but the sword to find water for you, even if there is no time to drink, so at this time the most convenient way is to cut off the head of the enemy in front of you with a knife, report the cavity of the dead body, drink a few sips while it is hot, quench your thirst, and replenish your physical strength, because human blood is salty......
Let his own soldiers help the two of them also wash, Xiao Yi recognized it, it was Zhang Liao and Dian Wei, today the two of them led the team to rush to the front, killed the most enemies, and the credit was the greatest, but luck was almost, Zhang Liao was stabbed in the shoulder, wrapped in a white cloth, blood oozed from time to time, only a few inches away from the neck, it can be seen how dangerous it was at that time, Dian Wei did not have a knife wound, but he was hit by several cold arrows, who called him big, the target was obvious, and he rushed to the front, fortunately, it was not critical!
"The soldiers are tired, and it is not appropriate to fight at night, as long as these three lines of defense are guarded!" Xiao Yi waved his hand and asked the soldiers to bring water to the second general, and after the fierce battle, it was a pleasure to drink saliva.
"In addition, I also prepared a big gift for Yuan Shu, enough for him to drink a pot, no, he can't drink it at all!" took a bag of water, mouth to mouth, Xiao Yi drank it all, drank the water, it turned out to be so happy!
"Haha! …… But what if there is no water to drink? ”
