Chapter 407 Miscommand
As the Oriental Morning Star gradually began to flicker, Zhang Ren couldn't help but rub his somewhat cloudy head.
As a result of yesterday's battle with the Jizhou Army, most of the generals of the coalition army were wounded. The task of being on duty at night naturally fell on him, the general of Shuzhong.
originally thought it was just an ordinary night watch, but Zhang Ren didn't think much about it at the time.
Although he had long heard that the combat effectiveness of the Jizhou Army was terrifying, he had never seen Zhang Ren with his own eyes, and he still couldn't believe it, but he saw it yesterday
Yesterday, it was only a small part of the cavalry of the Jizhou Army that attacked and harassed, and the coalition army composed of their eight-way princes stirred up chickens, flying dogs, and jumping.
Even last night, all the princes, including their own lords, came one by one.
was afraid that he would relax his vigilance because of paralysis and carelessness, which made Zhang Ren feel that the night was extraordinarily long.
It's easy to look forward to the light of day that will soon brighten, and Zhang Ren's tense nerves can be regarded as a little relaxed.
However, it is not yet possible to completely relax our vigilance, after all, this is the darkest time of the day, and the slightest mistake may cause catastrophe.
Therefore, Zhang Ren decided to inspect again, firstly, to remind his temporary subordinates that they would never dare to relax their vigilance at this time, so as not to waste their previous achievements.
The second is that he wants to check the princely armies on the edge to see if their defenses are lax, and try to avoid being taken advantage of by the Jizhou army.
However, due to the large number of coalition forces, they occupied a huge area, although Zhang Ren's patrol speed was not slow, but in half an hour, he barely inspected about half.
However, at this time, the sky has begun to brighten, and according to common sense, the Jizhou army has lost the best opportunity to sneak attack at this time.
As long as you are not a madman, you will never choose to attack at this time.
Just as Zhang Ren was thinking this, suddenly there was a huge commotion behind him.
At that time, Zhang Ren only felt that his head was clouded, and the people from the Jizhou Army really came at this time?
However, this was not the time for him to be blind, Zhang Ren almost subconsciously took his men and horses and rushed straight towards the place where there was a commotion.
While constantly speeding up, Zhang Ren couldn't stop praying in his heart that he must not let the Jizhou army take too much advantage, otherwise his sin would be great!
However, when Zhang Ren came to the place where the riot had occurred, he looked at everything in front of him with some confusion, because he didn't see any signs of being attacked by enemy troops here.
This made Zhang Ren a little confused, and at this time, a coalition general came across from him, and Zhang Ren saw that this person was Lei Bo, the general under Yuan Shu.
"General Lei, what just happened here? Why is there such a commotion among your men? “
"Oh~ It turned out to be General Zhang, nothing big happened on the young general's side. Just now, a group of cavalry from the Jizhou Army wanted to take the opportunity to sneak attack, but they had been driven away by the young general! “
"What, the Jizhou army came to sneak attack? How many people did they come, and how could they choose to retreat so quickly? ”
"How many? I didn't pay attention to this, but there were probably a thousand people! Those thieves still want to take advantage of grandpa's hands, if it weren't for the lord's strict order not to pursue, grandpa would have to make them look good today! ”
When he heard Lei Bo say this, Zhang Ren's heart was relieved at first, but soon he thought of a possibility, which made his face immediately turn pale.
Zhang Ren hurriedly ordered his cavalry to hurry up and return to where they had just been, and at this time, Zhang Ren heard a shout that almost made him desperate!
At that time, Zhang Ren knew that he had fallen for the enemy's misdeeds, and the enemy must have planned it a long time ago, and carried out a wave of small-scale harassment to transfer him and his cavalry away.
Then the enemy will choose the farthest point he is now away to attack.
If you want to rush over from him, it will take at least a quarter of an hour, and what will happen in this quarter of an hour, Zhang Ren doesn't even dare to think about it now.
At this time, he could only keep his head down and charge wildly with the cavalry under his command, hoping to shorten the time of support as much as possible, so as not to suffer too much loss to the attacked princes over there.
The more he walked towards the army of the princes who had made a riot, the more uneasy Zhang Ren's heart felt, as if something very bad was happening now.
What the hell was going on, Zhang Ren quickly understood.
Because when he came to the place where the riot took place, he was horrified to find that the princes who were being attacked by the Jizhou army at this time turned out to be his lord.
At this time, Liu Yan was already anxious, he never thought that he, as a former army, would become the target of the Jizhou army.
When the Jizhou cavalry appeared in front of him, he couldn't react a little.
But after all, the army under Liu Yan is the only one who has not been in contact with the Jizhou army.
At first, they were a little panicked, but not to the point of panic.
However, with the full launch of the Jizhou army's offensive, the soldiers of Yizhou found it unbelievable that they seemed to be being wantonly slaughtered by others.
Their counterattack did not even achieve the slightest result.
Most of the feathered arrows they shot were blocked by the enemy's armor.
The remaining small part, although shot through the enemy's armor, only hit some inconsequential parts.
Such an unbalanced battle soon put the people of Yizhou in an embarrassing position of psychological imbalance.
If it weren't for Liu Yan's generals, who reacted quickly, Liu Yan's army might have been defeated in a battle.
However, at this time, those generals in Yizhou were all looking forward to Zhang Ren's arrival soon.
The feeling of being beaten and not being able to fight back is too breathless, and if it continues like this, not only the soldiers can't stand it, but they, the generals, are also about to be unbearable.
At this time, Zhang Ren finally arrived with his men, and many generals from Yizhou breathed a sigh of relief.
They all thought that the Jizhou army would be like yesterday, and they would choose to retreat as soon as they saw their cavalry troops.
But what they didn't expect was that this time the Jizhou army did not show the slightest sign of evacuation, and after their cavalry appeared, they strengthened their offensive against them.
This caused the Yizhou army, which had just relaxed, to suffer heavy injuries at that time.
On the other hand, Zhang Ren at this time was already so angry that he was already angry, he looked at the soldiers of his own side who were wailing all over the ground, and he wanted to kill all those bastards in Jizhou.
The speed of the cavalry charge was very fast, and the coalition cavalry under the leadership of Zhang Ren had rushed to the vicinity of the Jizhou cavalry almost within five breaths.
Just when he was about to make contact with the other party, the leading generals of Jizhou seemed to react.
He ordered his cavalry to retreat quickly in a panic, striving to get rid of the coalition cavalry in the shortest possible time.
When Zhang Ren saw that his opponent was retreating in a hurry, a sneer appeared on his face, these bastards actually wanted to take advantage of it and ran away?
Today, he Zhang Ren has to teach these bastards a good lesson, unless they can all grow wings, otherwise today is the death date of these bastards!
