Chapter 41: Net Break 3
Twelve miles southeast of the Chu army camp, the Qingshui River suddenly became spacious, and the river was no longer up to the knee in winter, and it was very convenient to cross the river. Xin Sheng's order spread throughout the army, and the warrior knights who were feeding, feeding, and resting on the south bank of the river quickly turned over and got on their horses. Countless horses immediately trampled the clear river water into extremely turbidity, and the bright red blood stains of the corpses of the Chu soldiers in the river were also mixed in the turbid water and disappeared.
Ten thousand cavalry came out of thin air twelve miles downstream of the Qingshui River, something that no one had ever imagined. Although Xiang Yan also arranged a few sentry riders here, he still focused on the line of the Qingshui River behind the camp. But Xin Sheng crossed the river in this place and appeared when the last Chu army was sent to the battlefield. At this moment, Xiang's division had turned past the right army of the Chu army, and the horizontal march had turned into a vertical march, and their target was the Qin army camp instead of the Qin army's left army; The king's pawns marched westward, and they had to stop the Qin army's chariot camp and attack the left army's flank. No one seemed to pay attention to them, and the twelve miles could be reached in only a quarter of an hour, when Xiang Yan gave the head, and the Chu army would be defeated.
"Our army, attack the Jing camp, kill Xiang Yan, and capture the King of Jing!" In the end, it was a young man, Xin Sheng, who was excited after crossing the river, couldn't help but summon the cavalry of all battalions to mobilize in front of him, and the horse whip was waving in his hand, and the victory was already visible, only twelve miles.
"The merits of the feudal marquis are all in this battle. The second and third sons must not live up to the king's hopes! Xin Sheng also knew that there was no need to mobilize at this time, so after he finished speaking, he asked the excited generals to quickly return to the camp, and then shouted to the standard-bearer: "Zhan Zhan!" ”
"Zhan Zhan!" The flag bearer unfurls the crimson flag, the north wind blows, and the heavy brocade silk flag is also hunting.
"Drive!" Looking at the martial knight who was leaping on his side, Xin Sheng whipped vigorously, and in the rumbling hooves, the smoke and dust rose again.
"Dare to ask General Qu where he is going?" The king had not gone far before he was stopped by a chariot, which he recognized as the king's guard.
"The last general was ordered by the general to intercept the Qin people's chariots on the side of the left army. The military situation is urgent, and the guards must not stop it. Refractive lowered his head, this can be regarded as an answer to Yu for the sake of the king's face.
"The villain is ordered by the king, please General Qu to divide a part of the soldiers and horses with me." There was a sword on his waist, but what he was holding in his hand was another sword, which was the sword of the previous king.
"Long Yuan!?" The wrong gold scabbard, the quaint style, and the refractive light are also the close ministers of the first king, and it can be seen at a glance that this is the sword of Longyuan.
"Since General Qu knows the name of the sword, should he know the precedent of using the sword as a symbol?" Yu Jian still held his sword high, afraid that Refractive would not agree to divide the troops.
"The minister knows!" Qu Guangtian waved the sword of Long Yuan, and then said to the left and right: "The king and the army will follow me to the king to listen to the order, and the rest will take General Bao as the general and go to the side of the left army to help." ”
The king is the king's pawn, this is the private pawn of the king of Chu. Although the division of troops violates the general's order, the king's order is greater than the general's order, let alone just the division of troops. Yu Jian, who was a little worried, saw that the refractive car turned, and the soldiers were also divided into two parts, one still went west, and the other turned to the east, and said: "The king has ordered someone to tell the general, for fear that the general will hesitate, Fang ordered the villain to intercept General Qu first." ”
"The king has a life, and the minister will not give up when he dies." Refractive and refractive, he asked Mide to follow Yu's car and go to the flag.
Under the flag, Xiong Jing was giving orders to several deployments, I don't know if the speed of speech is too fast, or the concept is too advanced, and when he says that he is finished, Yin Dao still doesn't understand what he hears. What is Collective Fire? What is Quji? What is crossfire, and what is crossbow coordination? He didn't understand it at all. But Xiong Jing finally asked him to find a wrestler to throw a fire bomb directly, and he understood. The wrestlers of the whole army are all in the army, otherwise who can carry 400 catties of iron bullets and lead bullets?
"Do you know?" In front of Xiong Jing, there is Pan Yu, the general of the archer, the general of the crossbow, and the general Yin Dao, the general of the trebuchet, the military situation is urgent, and he said it very quickly, so he was worried that everyone did not understand, and he was even more worried that there would be problems when it was implemented.
"The end will be known!" Pan Yu, the general of the archers, understood the order against himself, and the king asked him to line up his archers on both sides of the banner and shoot the Qin people crosswise. However, this method of shooting is different from usual, it is necessary to shoot from a high place, and shoot the enemy in front of the Chu army, which does not require many archers, thousands of skilled archers.
"The last general also knows." The general of the crossbow had heard these words when the king was still the prince, and the crossbow and the crossbow were very clear to him.
"Minister, minister......" Gong Yin Dao 'minister' for a long time before hesitating to speak, "There are only thirty wrestlers, and one wrestler can only carry one fire bomb, but the fire bomb is heavy and cannot be thrown far ......"
"Thirty fire bombs are fine!" Xiong Jing clapped his head. "Let these wrestlers be well armoured, and each of them will hold a fire bomb and wait here. Alright, you guys hurry up and get ready. After two quarters of an hour, those who don't get it, cut it! ”
"Yui!" Two quarters of an hour is not a long time, except for the easy adjustment of the archers, the wrestlers and fire bombs of Gong Yin Dao, and the crossbow of the mourning house are not easy to concentrate here, so these two people ran the fastest, and after bowing, they hurried away.
As soon as these people left, Yu and Quguang's chariot came, along with the military Sima Pengzong, who came after receiving an order from Xiong Jing.
"The minister Quguang pays a visit to the king." Qu Guang glanced at Peng Zong, did not explain why he returned, and only saluted Xiong Jing.
"Doctor Qu is exempt." Xiong Jing waved his hand, "Don't you want the king's army to line up in a cone formation behind the flag, can it take two quarters of an hour?" ”
'Behind the banner is a cone-shaped formation...... Qu Guang silently read the order, thought for a moment before replying: "Tell the king, the Chinese army is less than 10,000 people, and two quarters of an hour is enough." ”
"Then line up." Xiong Jing said, "I want you to tell the soldiers: where the flag goes, you will kill it, and you will never stop." ”
"Respectfully! Wherever the flag enters, the soldiers will kill it, and they will never stop. Refractive repeats the king's command, and knows what the king wants. He gave another salute and hurried away.
"The last general has seen the king." Peng Zongyi said. "What if the king is so risky?"
"If not, you and I will both die here." Xiong Jing replied, "May I ask Sima Peng, if not, what else does the general have to do?" ”
"The general has ordered Xiang's division to surround the enemy camp, and as soon as the Mengwu banner falls, the Qin army will be defeated." Peng Zong replied. "The king came to the aid of the left army, in case the Qin people rushed into battle, and if the troops were divided in this way, our army would be defeated."
"Our army will be defeated?" As Lian Po expected, Xiang Yan did not agree with the plan that Xiong Jing came up with with a pat on his head. "May I ask Sima, how many miles did Master Xiang go to the camp in the Qin realm? How long does it take to arrive? ”
Of course, Peng Zong knew that Xiang Shi was a few miles away from the Qin army's camp, and he also knew how long it would take to walk this distance, but he didn't answer, he only looked down at Xiong Jing's pair of leather shoes.
"You tell the general: I have made up my mind, and I will break through the Qin army's formation, and I would rather die than return. Go back, the king's army, the crossbow, and a thousand archers are under my command, and the rest are still under the command of the general. ”
There are not many troops to go from Xiong Jing, but at this time, the Chu army is exhausted, and the troops of less than 10,000 people are also a considerable force, especially the Jing crossbow, which is all leaving. The left and right armies can't be attacked, and the king wants to break through the Qin army from the Chinese army and divide it into two, this strategy is not impossible, but what Xiang Yan minds most is that Xiong Jing interferes with his command, which has violated the way of worshipping generals.
......In desperation, Peng Zong was about to say goodbye, and whoever wanted to make a sharp emergency report could also be heard here, only to hear the military official who reported the news shouting: "Report to the general: The cavalry attacked me!" The cavalry attacked me ......"
The cavalry is naturally the cavalry of the Qin army, this is the army that the Chu army has been guarding against, and there is obviously no cavalry in the north of the Qingshui River, where did it come from? Peng Zong looked around in horror, and finally, he saw a cloud of smoke and dust coming from the east, which was the direction of the left army. "Rest!" He exclaimed. The cavalry of the Qin army must have seen the emptiness in the rear, so most of them were killed, and he said: "Dare to ask the king, please ask the king to order the king to meet the enemy quickly, otherwise the Qin army will seize my banner and destroy my camp." ”
"Cavalry?" Xiong Jing also looked to the east, and he also saw the smoke and dust in the sky in shock. "Pass my king's order, and the king will ...... quickly"
"The king must not!" Lian Po opened his mouth unexpectedly. "The cavalry of the Qin army has appeared, and if we don't break the formation, our army will be defeated quickly."
"Quick defeat?!" Xiong Jing looked at him, and Peng Zong also looked at him.
"There must be 10,000 cavalry of the Qin people, and if these 10,000 people do not attack the big battalion, they will attack the flank and back of our army. The king's army is less than 10,000 people, can he protect the shogunate camp and protect the flank of our army? Lian Po asked rhetorically. If the camp is broken, our army can still win when it breaks through the enemy's formation; If the flank is attacked by the enemy, the battalion alone will be defeated. Please think twice. ”
"Ahh Lian Po said this truth, although Xiong Jing was stunned, but quickly understood.
"I'd rather the cavalry break through the camp than hit our army on the flank, or ......" The smoke and dust are getting closer and closer, and when the north wind blows, the dust almost covers half of the sky to the east. In Lu Li's mirror, the murderous martial knight was speeding up. The more Xiong Jing looked at it, the cooler it became, and suddenly, a team of martial knights rode their horses and turned, and to the north, there was also a cloud of smoke and dust galloping down.
"Drive!" Fei Jing was lying on a horse, and her figure rose and fell. Even his own shouts could not be heard in the sound of thunderous hooves, and at this moment, his eyes were only the cavalry of the Qin army rushing westward.
"Drive!" Xiang Chao ran beside him. It was he who looked back and saw the cavalry of the Qin army, this army that was speeding westward was the same as Xiang's division, and the target was the enemy camp, beheading the generals and capturing the flag. It's a pity that the Xiang division is an infantry army, and the Qin army is a cavalry army.
"Drive! Drive! More riders shouted, and more than a thousand riders galloped outside the left army. However, the unpolished cavalry was incomparably young, even if the distance was only three miles, and the originally neat queue was gradually becoming chaotic, and the fatal flank assault was becoming a single-handed challenge. Looking at the inconsistent and scattered cavalry of the Chu army, Xin Sheng breathed a sigh of relief, and while the flag was waving, a cavalry army in the Qin army array immediately turned right to meet the enemy, because the distance was too close, the Qin army was still turning, and the enemy was about to be killed.
What is the weakness of a knight? The knight's most fatal weakness is his right side. There is no shield on the right side, and it is inconvenient to shoot arrows on the right side, and once an experienced knight is bitten by the enemy on the right side, the cold hairs on his body will stand up. Now, this fatal weakness is being bitten by the Chu army, even if Xin Sheng sends people to turn right to meet the enemy, even if the Chu army is scattered, the martial knights are sweating in their vests, raising crossbows to wait for the occurrence and death, just a few breaths.
