Chapter Forty-Eight: This Is Too Shameless, Isn't It?

Cao Bianjiao already regretted in his heart at this time that he had carelessly underestimated the enemy, and it turned out that all this was a trap set by the enemy for himself. He looked at the tens of thousands of troops with strict appearances, clear armor, and immobile mountains, and then he knew that he had really underestimated the other party.

Such an army, although it has not yet been officially contacted, but at first glance it is an elite army, with excellent armor and a strict array, even the five thousand elite cavalry under him are not as good as it.

Although the towering city walls and fortresses in the distance, as well as the silent and cold array in front of him, made Cao Bianjiao know that he might be facing the biggest crisis in his life. But after all, he is not a fledgling hairy boy, but a veteran general who has been in battle for a long time and has killed countless enemies.

"Sons, kill me!" Cao Bianjiao roared wildly, and the long knife led towards the left flank of the Jiang family's army.

Although the elite cavalry of the 5,000 Ming army behind him was also intimidated by the solemn array in front of them, they were infected by the courage of the main general, and one by one they also roared and turned their horses' heads diagonally towards the left flank of the enemy.

Behind the Jiang family's large array, there were two towering and spacious cloud cars, one of which was the actual commander of the battle, Bai Shan, as well as the drummer and the standard-bearer.

On the other cloud car were Jiang Chuan, Liu Ji, Bai Mu and others, they did not interfere with the command, but just watched from the battlefield.

For specific battles, Jiang Chuan didn't think that his half-man would be better commanded than these real generals, so he always grasped the big and let go of the small, and he would never hesitate when it was time to delegate power. Although he has delegated power, he should not be completely in charge, but seize every opportunity to learn and grow.

"Military advisor, this Cao Bianjiao looks like he has some skills, not confronting our army head-on, but attacking the flank of our army, which is indeed good." Jiang Chuan was high above the cloud car, watching the Ming army attack the flank of the formation, and commented.

"Lord, after all, this Cao Bianjiao is Yuan Chonghuan's henchman and is known for his bravery. However, it seems that he is not a brave and resourceless person. Liu Ji said.

"Well, you really can't underestimate the heroes of the world. Let's see how General Hakuyama copes. Jiang Chuan nodded.

"Lord, this Cao Bianjiao really can't be underestimated. Judging by the intention of his actions, it is not really to attack the flank of our army, but more like to mobilize the front and right flanks of our army to rescue. As soon as our army moves, there will be a defensive hole in the formation immediately, and the Ming army will have an opportunity to take advantage of the situation to break into our army's formation, and then win in chaos. Even if you can't win, you may take advantage of the chaos to escape. Liu Ji said with a worried face.

Jiang Chuan was slightly startled in his heart, and his brows furrowed. He believed in Liu Ji's vision. Although Liu Ji has no experience in the specific battle command, he is not as good as the three generals under him, but the trend of the change in the battle formation is still very accurate.

I didn't expect this Cao Bianjiao to fight with the idea of attacking the east and the west and taking advantage of the chaos to win, he really underestimated him.

However, he quickly adjusted his mood and said with a slight smile: "Although Cao Bianjiao is cunning, as long as he doesn't really become a dragon, I believe that General Baishan can deal with it." We'll see. ”

There is still a sentence in his heart that has not been said: Don't say that you will not become a dragon, you will really become a dragon, and my army of tens of thousands will also perform dragon slaying today.

On another cloud car, Bai Shan watched every move on the battlefield, and after seeing the movement of the Ming army, he smiled slightly and did not make any moves.

The adjutant general behind him said anxiously: "General, the Ming army attacked the left flank of our army, should you let the right flank and cavalry go to support?" ”

Bai Shan glanced back at the deputy general and said slowly: "The battle formation changes, don't use your eyes to see it, you have to use your brain to see it." The real intention of the enemy army is not to attack the left flank of our army, but to mobilize our army to change formation with a feint momentum, so as to take the opportunity to attack our army's main position. If it moves, then it is really stupid. Order the bow battalion to prepare, and once the enemy is close to a stone's throw away, cover the enemy with projectiles. ”

When the adjutant general was still in doubt, he found that the situation on the battlefield had changed.

The Ming army, which was originally attacking on the flank, suddenly slowed down, suddenly turned around and rushed towards the flank and rear of the battlefield.

The adjutant general was dumbfounded and muttered, "That's it?" That's shameless, isn't it? ”

Bai Shan ignored the adjutant general's consternation, looked at the Ming cavalry who turned around and ran wildly on the battlefield, his expression was calm, and he ordered in a deep voice: "The cavalry on both wings will attack to intercept the Ming army, don't let them escape." ”

The commander behind him quickly passed the order, the war drums beat loudly, and the standard-bearer waved the big flag to convey the order to the battalions of the formation.

As the sound of war drums gradually became more and more urgent, the black-armored cavalry on both flanks of the formation dispatched at the same time, outflanking and chasing the Ming cavalry from both flanks.

Cao Bianjiao was a trick just now, although he was brave, but he was definitely not brainless. He only had 5,000 cavalry under his command, and if he wanted to force an attack on the enemy's large array, even if he really broke through, there would be only a few people left in the end.

This kind of stupid thing of self-seeking thinking Cao Bianjiao can't do it.

He thought that by pretending to attack the enemy's left flank, he could mobilize the enemy's own position to change. Once the enemy's home begins to change formations, he can find an opportunity to break through. However, he did not expect that the enemy's main general would be so steady, with a fierce vision, that he would not move at all, and respond to all changes without moving, which surprised him and made him feel a strong crisis at the same time.

That's why I immediately turned around and ran away, which is the only way to live.

The red-clothed and black-armored Ming cavalry rushed wildly in front, and the black-clothed and black-armored Jiang cavalry chased wildly behind, and the offensive and defensive momentum on the battlefield suddenly reversed.

How brave the Ming army was when they pursued the enemy just now, and how crazy they were when they fled at this time.

How embarrassed the cavalry of the Jiang family army was when they pretended to be defeated and fled just now, how brave they are when they are pursuing now.

Two thousand cavalry pursued five thousand cavalry, but the Ming army did not have the courage to turn around and fight. Cao Bianjiao knew that once he stopped to fight with the enemy, he would most likely be surrounded by the enemy infantry who were following him, and he would really not be able to leave at that time.

All he wanted now was to hurry back and join up with his infantry, so that he would have the confidence to encircle and annihilate the two thousand cavalry of the enemy who had caught up. At that time, he was already far away from the enemy's main battlefield, and it was impossible for the enemy's infantry to catch up, which gave him time to encircle and annihilate the two thousand pursuers.

Although the war horses of the Ming army are all good horses, they are all Mongolian horses with short legs and short bodies. Mongolian horses are hard-working and hard-working, and their skins are good to feed, so they can indeed be proud of the horses. But when it comes to explosiveness and short-distance speed, that's definitely no match for Arabian horses.

Unfortunately, all the war horses of the Jiang family army are Arab war horses. The system must be a high-quality product.

Therefore, although the Ming cavalry fled fast and ran early, the distance between the two sides was quickly shortened.

The cavalry of the Ming army, which fell at the rear, had already entered the range of the bows and arrows of the cavalry at the forefront of the Jiang army's cavalry.
