Chapter 18: The Beginning of the War (3)

The Bei'an Army finally had news, and the soldiers and horses of the Fifth Brigade arrived in Jingyang three days later at the latest.

Feng Shi simply suspected that this group of people was the reincarnation of Wang Ba, and it only took more than ten days for the soldiers and horses from all walks of life to join the Dongning Mansion, but it took more than 20 days for the Bei'an Army.

Earlier, the time to send charcoal in the snow did not come, but now that the army has surrounded Jingyang, they have come to add icing on the cake.

After being surrounded by officers and soldiers, the western thieves cowered in the city for several days, with no intention of breaking through the siege and no small movements. Feng Shi was a little unpredictable.

Since ancient times, soldiers have besieged the city, and they have surrounded three ques. Feng Shi is also from a general, so naturally he will not know this art of war.

100,000 officers and soldiers were divided into four ways to besiege the city, of which the east, west, and south roads were heavily guarded and impermeable. Only the north road looks sparsely defended.

Feng Shi knew that the western thief was cunning, and it was impossible not to see his intentions. However, he believes that human nature is to seek advantages and avoid disadvantages, and as long as thieves see a glimmer of life, even if they have doubts in their hearts, they will try with the idea of luck.

Feng Shi specially sent someone to investigate, and there was an overgrown depression in the north of Jingyang City, which looked like a huge basin sinking into the ground from a distance. This is exactly the place to ambush the thieves.

Feng Shi arranged a lot of soldiers and horses around the depression, and ordered people to prepare a large amount of dry firewood. As soon as the enemy is found to have broken through, the ambushers will immediately light dry wood and notify the other three armies through the thick smoke.

The weather has been sunny lately, and Feng Shi believes that the heavens are secretly blessing him.

Sure enough.

"General, wolf smoke rises from the north, and the thieves have broken through!"

The herald excitedly ran into the military tent and reported this important military situation to Feng Shi.

Feng Shi asked in disbelief, "How many thieves are there?" Do you know about the other three routes? ”

The herald said: "Judging from the number of wolf smoke, there are no less than 200,000 thieves. The ambush is delaying, and the generals of all brigades have already ordered their troops and horses, just waiting for the general's order! ”

"What are you waiting for! Let them chase at once! Feng Shi scolded.

After receiving the order, the three-way army immediately slaughtered to the north of Jingyang City without stopping. Even Feng Shi ignored the danger and went to the battlefield to command officers and soldiers from all walks of life.

In less than an hour, the officers and soldiers of the three routes were killed in the depression.

"Brothers, it's time to seal your wife and son! Kill with me! ”

Under the command of Feng Shi, Ma Ma took the lead, leading the elite officers and soldiers of the first brigade to rush down the depression.

Subsequently, according to the original plan, the 100,000-strong army divided into six routes and rushed down the depression from different directions, for fear of letting go of a western thief.

"Kill! Kill all the shit! ”

Ma Erhan rode on a big green horse, holding a long knife in his hand, and charged forward with a loud shout.

At this moment, he thought of Daliang Town, thought of Mazhuang, and thought of his parents who died tragically. I couldn't help but have red eyes, blood and qi surged, and my head was full of only the desire to kill.

Along the way, the officers and men of the Fifth Brigade in Gaoyang County hardly participated in any decent battles, and were either arranged to escort grain and grass, or to dig trenches and build walls. Fortunately, now is the opportunity to make a difference!

Around the hollow, thousands of horses galloped, the cry was like the sea, and the scene was indescribably grand.

Any man who is here must be infected by this magnificent momentum and want to become part of the army.

The thieves in the hollow were slaughtered by the officers and soldiers like chopping melons and vegetables, and the casualties were almost one-sided.

It turns out that thieves are so vulnerable! The officers and men were secretly surprised in their hearts, and they immediately fought even harder.

Stumps and severed arms along the way, and the corpses of thieves everywhere. These thieves were generally unarmoured and had poor weapons. As if they had never fought before, one officer and soldier went in and out.

Ma Erhan is like a demon born like a ghost, he kills people whenever he meets, and he kills until the sky is dark, and there is no distinction between north and south.

A cool breeze blew, and Ma Erhan suddenly woke up. How can such a group of rabble be invincible and invincible thieves all the way?

There is fraud! There must be a fraud!

Ma Erhan was in a hurry, and hurriedly restrained his subordinates to prevent them from being too scattered. At the same time, he desperately searched for Wang Darong, wanting him to order the Gaoyang Fifth Brigade not to rush forward again.

"Brigade General, don't let the brothers rush around, we're in the middle of the plan!"

Seeing Wang Darong from afar, Ma Erhan immediately tried his best to roar.

The officers and soldiers have lost order and are everywhere chasing and killing the remnants of the thieves. The county brigades will no longer be able to effectively command the post headquarters.

There was a chaotic crowd all around, Wang Darong couldn't hear what Ma Erhan was saying, and was about to ride over, when a feathered arrow flew from nowhere, and it happened to hit him in the cheek, and he fell off the horse at once.

Countless feathered arrows, overwhelming, attacked from all directions without warning. Countless officers and soldiers fell like arrows blowing wheat waves.

For a while, all the officers and soldiers were stunned, what was going on?

"The divine soldier came into the world, with the master! The blessing is immeasurable, and the longevity ascends to heaven! Kill! ”

Countless thieves shouted the slogans of the sect, as if falling from the sky, rushing towards the chaotic officers and soldiers with lightning speed.

The tide of battle turned dramatically.

This time, it was the thieves who chased and killed the officers and soldiers like pigs and dogs.

"What's going on, how can this be?"

Feng Shi stood on the ground dumbfounded and muttered to himself, almost being killed by the western thief.

"General, run away! Where there is life, there is hope. ”

Li Kui, who was spared by Feng Shi before, has been desperately defending him because he is grateful for his grace of not killing.

"Brethren! Our way of life is broken, and we can't escape now. It's better to fight against the water, even if you die, you will die happily! ”

Ma Ma was indeed a fierce general, and he shouted loudly as he gathered the rout.

Many officers and soldiers who were only concerned about fleeing for their lives listened to his words and gradually consciously moved closer to him. For a time, more than 10,000 officers and soldiers stabilized and began to counterattack.

"Brethren! Let's fight our way out! ”

Seeing that Ma Ma had gathered the rout, Li Kui took the opportunity to shout. He decided to take advantage of this rout to delay time and secretly protect Feng Shi to escape.

Ma Li knew what Li Kui meant, he was only today because of Feng Shi's great kindness, and now he wants to use him as bait, he has no complaints.

"Rush!"

With a shout, Ma Ma charged at the thief.

Behind him were more than 10,000 officers and soldiers who had no choice.

On the high slope, Sun Fu looked at the two warring sides at the bottom of the mountain, and his heart was full of emotion. He won this battle. No, it should be said that the son won the battle.

This battle was fought completely according to Sun Xun's intentions. Because he knew that the officials and troops would surround the three and one, Sun Xun specially calculated it.

Along the way, the western thieves have co-organized nearly 200,000 young men who served as coolies, and compared with the soldiers, the lives of these people seem to be as cheap as ants.

According to Sun Xun's plan, he first sent people to distribute a few broken knives and armor to the coolies, and then ordered more than 10,000 soldiers to supervise them, and broke through to the north of the city with great fanfare.

Sun Xun often went out of the city, so he naturally knew that there was a depression in the north of the city that was suitable for ambushes. The officers and men can encircle there, and he can also have a counter-encirclement.

As Sun Xun expected, the officers and soldiers saw the huge number of western thieves who came out of the city, and mistakenly thought that they were the main force of the other party, and rushed to kill the generals.

The elite of the western thieves in the city seized the opportunity and quietly followed behind the officers and soldiers, and when the officers and soldiers were tired of killing, they suddenly killed.

In this battle, the defeat of the officers and men was decided.
