Chapter 823 The whole army attacked, leaving no prisoners
Southwest of Yan, with abundant rain all year round, suitable climate, most of the fertile land, and a flat land, it is an important grain-producing area in the south.
Unfortunately, in recent years, the war has continued and changed hands many times, resulting in the displacement of people and the abandonment of large tracts of fertile land.
More than half a year ago, many areas here changed hands again, were divided by Yanshu, too late for spring ploughing, the war of the five countries to cut down Yan, the land of Xishu, many troops went to Yandi, conquered the city.
I hope to get a piece of the soup in the five countries!
Nowadays, this area has become very desolate, and there are very few cities and villages.
After two days of rapid marching, the Chu army under Han Zhitong and the Yan cavalry under Lin Feng's tent both arrived, and a big battle would kick off at any time.
At this moment, the Chu army quickly deployed defenses in accordance with Han Zhitong's orders and was vigilant against the invasion of Yan cavalry.
It's a pity that the expected war still hasn't broken out, and the Yan cavalry is only burying the pot to cook when the Chu army is burying the pot, or when the Chu army is going to rest, tens of thousands of Yan cavalry will quickly charge and force the other party to continue to move forward.
The Yan army repeated its old tricks, Han Zhitong and Chen Tongyu, two important generals of the Chu State, hated Lin Feng's actions to the core, if he could, he was afraid that he would lead the army to fight with Yan Cai earlier.
They all know very well that the soft knife kills people without seeing blood, and if they continue to consume like this, the Yan army and the Chu army will be like cats and mice, and the Chu army will be consumed to death by the Yan army sooner or later.
It was another long-span pursuit, and it turned around for dozens of miles!
From early morning to noon, the sky is hot and sunny, and the air not far from the ground is floating in the enchanting air, which is enough to prove the heat and dryness of the weather.
Forced to march continuously, for a long time, the Chu army did not advance water and rice, and the physical strength consumed could not be effectively replenished.
One by one, each step forward, like a thousand catties of molten iron poured into the legs, difficult and abnormal.
Sweat rolled on his forehead, like rain dripping on his forehead on a rainy day, constantly rolling down from Chu Jun's forehead.
The red shirt under the armor was all wet with sweat on the back, and a large sweat stain pattern was printed on the red shirt.
Chen Dongyu's arm wiped the sweat from his forehead, and it kept declining, and the corners of his dry mouth were white, covered with fine cracks, with many bloodshots.
Fighting all his strength, Chen Dongyu came to Han Zhitong's side, licked the corners of his dry mouth, his throat seemed to be smoking, and said: "General, if you go on like this, it's too embarrassing, and the last general can understand it, Emperor Yan, this bastard, is ready to torture my Great Chu army to death." ”
The last drop of water in the kettle fell into the mouth, including Chen Dongyu, many Chu troops, including Chen Dongyu, did not enter the water, under the scorching sun, many people, could not bear the scorching heat, and even disregarded the existence of Yan Qi, and directly threw away the armor on their bodies.
Han Zhitong has not personally experienced the strength of the blade soldiers, but the situation of the Chu army, he knows very well that if the situation is not changed quickly, let alone the blade soldiers, any cavalry can quickly disperse the physically exhausted Xuanjia soldiers.
He didn't expect that Lin Feng's tactics would be so despicable, after encircling the Chu army, he could obviously quickly attack and break out into a fierce battle.
However, he besieged but did not attack, constantly consuming the physical strength and will of the Chu army, and in addition, his misjudgment made the situation of the Chu army gradually become very bad and almost irreversible.
"Hold on a little longer, according to the map, in the evening, you can reach the territory of Shu in Jiangbei!" Han Zhitong's throat was dry, and his voice became much rougher and deeper.
In desperation, he put forward a suggestion that even he did not believe.
He knew the distance from Xishu, how could the Yan army not know that they had bitten the Chu army for two days in a row, and they would never escort the Chu army to Xishu.
Therefore, the closer you get to Xishu, the more likely it is that the war will break out.
After being silent for a long time, he looked at the abandoned city more than ten miles ahead, and said again: "Order the whole army to hold on for a while, and when the army moves to the front city, we can resist the city and defend it, and the situation will definitely change slightly." ”
Chen Tongyu looked up into the distance, unclear in his heart, whether the Chu army had a chance to arrive.
Along the way, whenever the Chu army was ready to stop and rest, or was ready to bury the pot to make food, or when the road encountered a water source and was ready to replenish water, there would always be 50,000 Yan cavalry in pursuit.
This group of bastards adopted despicable wheel tactics, but they deliberately made a huge noise and chased indiscriminately, so that the Chu army had no chance to rest and stop at all.
This time, when encountering an abandoned city, the Chu army was ready to transfer to the past, and it was difficult to predict whether the Yan army would give the Chu army a chance.
Sure enough, Chen Dongyu's worries became a reality.
When the Chu army accelerated its march, the scorching sun behind it was in the sky, and there was finally a commotion among the bladed soldiers who had been silent for a long time.
Lin Feng's grasp of the battlefield situation is simply perfect, and there are few opponents!
The Yan army did not have many troops on the Western Front, and Hou Mingfeng was dispatched to lead the army into the Song State, so there were only troops led by Zhang Yu and Ju Wentai on the Western Front, and as for the troops led by Zhao Hongru, Feng Yi and others, whether they successfully arrived on the Western Front, there was no information at present.
Therefore, it is absolutely impossible to quickly annihilate the Chu army under Han Zhitong, otherwise the news will be transmitted back to Xishu, which will inevitably increase the attack of the coalition army, and the pressure on the shoulders of Zhang Yu and Ju Wentai will definitely skyrocket.
Not long ago, he received news that last night the coalition army left more than 50,000 casualties, forcibly broke through the defense line formed by Zhang Yu and Ju Wentai, and stepped into Xishu.
Early in the morning, Feng Yi and Tuoba Yu led the army corps to the Western Front and joined Zhang Yu and Ju Wentai's corps.
The Chu army has become a lone army, even if it is necessary to fight the trapped beasts, it is time to clean them up.
The moment Han Zhitong noticed the change in Yan Qi, his pale face was as frightened as earth, and he hurriedly ordered the whole army to fight.
Chen Dongyu personally led the army, as a striker, ready to block the incoming enemy at any time.
The Chu army is in a bad situation, but he will still insist on fighting to the end, and he will pull a cushion when he dies!
However, the Yan army did not attack with all its troops, and only 10,000 cavalry rushed up and reached the front, blocking the retreat of the Xuanjia soldiers.
Cao Aman, the leader, took a few steps forward on his prancing horse, waved the hammer in his hand, and shouted: "Listen up and down the Chu army, the Yan army is a benevolent and righteous army, and does not want to cause too much killing, if the Chu army is interested, it will disarm and surrender, so as not to provoke the blade warriors to kill, and more than 100,000 Chu troops will be strangled alive." ”
"Those who descend will not be killed, and those who descend will not be killed!"
"Those who descend will not be killed, and those who descend will not be killed!"
Ten thousand blade warriors suddenly shouted in unison after Cao Aman's words fell.
Yan Jun's voice was low, but his voice was very loud, and the Chu army within more than ten miles could be heard clearly.
Under the scorching sun, the two sides confronted each other directly, the Chu army had fighting spirit in their hearts, but unfortunately they had more than enough strength but not enough, under the scorching sun, they were hungry, sleepy, dazzled, crumbling, and their mental state was not suitable for combat at all.
However, if the Yan army surrendered, the Chu army could not let go of its pride, they were an invincible division in the south, a long-term victorious division, stepping into the north, repeated defeats, not to mention, this time the Yan and Chu coalition forces had not yet intersected with short arms, and they directly disarmed and surrendered, which was simply a shame for the Chu army.
But in the face of life and death, especially when there is a clear choice, many people in the Chu army do not want to die in vain.
At this time, everyone's eyes were focused on Lianhan Zhitong and Chen Dongyu, hoping that the two of them would make up their minds!
Half a day's journey, but it became a dead end for the Chu army, Han Zhitong looked up to the sky and sighed, God is unfair, but unfortunately there is nothing to be done.
Han Zhitong did not hesitate, and shouted bluntly: "Prepare for war, the army will break through to the west with all its might!" ”
If he surrendered without a fight, Han Zhitong couldn't do it, if he led the army to surrender, it would not only bring shame to him, but also to the Chu army.
The surrender of all the Chu troops in their early 100,000s will make the Chu army a joke among the vassal states.
Han Zhitong's general order coincided with the inner thoughts of the Chu soldiers, and the generals, more than 100,000 Chu troops, acted quickly, shield arrays, arrow arrays, and formed defenses.
Moreover, after the formation of the defense, the Chu army did not choose to defend as an offensive, on the contrary, it quickly took the initiative to attack, hoping to teach the bladed soldiers a lesson in the predicament.
At this moment, Han Zhitong's old arm, holding the war knife, shouted loudly: "Fight to the death, I'd rather die than surrender!" ”
"Fight to the death, I'd rather die than surrender!"
"Fight to the death, I'd rather die than surrender!"
The Chu army is exhausted, and when life and death are at stake, it is still like a rainbow!
Step by step, holding shields, spears, and short swords, he moved forward with great momentum, doing the battle of trapped beasts.
The rain of arrows in the air rushed straight to the Yan cavalry, and on the top of the three rows of shields, with spears between them, all of them looked resolute and refused to surrender.
In front of the army, Cao Aman, who witnessed the performance of the Chu army, signaled to the guards around him to inform the bladed soldiers on all sides of the Chu army's moves, and for a while, a melodious horn sounded in the air.
Before the voice fell, the blade warriors became restless, and soon, 100,000 troops launched an attack on the Chu army, which was almost equal in number.
Two days ago, when the pursuit reached the Chu army, Cao Aman was ready to lead the army into battle, but unfortunately, the idea of a big battle for the whole army was temporarily suppressed by Lin Feng.
At this time, the Yan army failed to persuade him to surrender, and the Chu army took the lead in counterattacking, which just satisfied him, and he could lead the elite troops of Dayan to fight heartily.
At this moment, the Chu army was like blood flowing, with its last breath, supporting the body giant, it seemed to be tall and mighty, but if it was hit hard, it would quickly collapse.
Lin Feng knew the situation of the Chu army, therefore, in the impact, there was no deployment, and the whole army only needed to kill indiscriminately in the rush level, this group of troops that were once magnificent but now vulnerable.
"The whole army will attack, and no prisoners will be left!" During the charge, Lin Feng shouted.
The Chu army took the initiative to surrender, and the Yan army won the war without blood, which was what Lin Feng was looking forward to the most.
It's a pity that Han Zhitong, the general of the Chu army, is too ignorant of current affairs and is ready to fight to the end.
Isn't the Chu State the overlord of the south, he personally annihilated the 200,000 Chu army twice, so that the 350,000 Xuanjia soldiers of the Five Kingdoms who attacked Yan were all buried in Yan Land, and see if Xiong Wu dared to argue with Yan State next.
"The whole army will attack, and no prisoners will be left!"
"The whole army will attack, and no prisoners will be left!"
Under Lin Feng's example, 100,000 blade warriors shouted in unison while impacting!
