Chapter 450: Trapping the Camp

On the south bank of the Yellow River, Yanjin City.

The drums shook the sky, the battle flags covered the sun, and a small Yanjin city was surrounded by 10,000 Yuan troops into an iron bucket array.

Outside the south gate, a big flag with the word "Yuan" flew dazzlingly.

Yuan Tan sat on a white horse, his squinted eyes staring at the crumbling Yanjin City from afar, his eyes full of confidence and disdain.

That momentum, just like the Yanjin City in front of him, only needs him to stomp once, and it will be collapsed.

"Capture Yanjin City, this southern expedition is mine, my father will be even more impressed with me, I think Yuan Shang is still qualified to compete with me......"

The more Yuan Tan thought about it, the more proud he became, and the corners of his mouth gradually hooked into a sneer.

Wen Chou glanced at Yuan Tan's expression, but his brows were already furrowed, and he was worried: "Although I have shared the credit of Yuan Tan, this first credit is his, and the future of the third prince is not good." ”

The two of them had their own thoughts, but the goal of breaking the city and making meritorious contributions was the same, so they urged the soldiers of Yuan to attack the city with all their might.

At this moment, a horse galloped over and shouted: "Report to the eldest prince, the main force of the Soviet army has been found ten miles southeast of Yanjin, and it is killing the flank of our army." ”

The main force of the Soviet army!

Yuan Tan's face changed, and he said hurriedly: "How is it possible, didn't the Su thief go to Baima, how could he appear here?" ”

Wen Chou had also changed color, and asked, "How many enemy troops are there?" ”

"General Palindrome, there are almost more than 40,000." The scout replied.

Forty thousand!

Yuan Tan and Wen Chou glanced at each other, and their eyes invariably showed a little jealousy.

Wen Chou's eyes rolled a few times, and he suddenly realized that he was busy saying: "The eldest prince, the lord must have fallen for the trick of the Su thief, he clearly wanted to cross from the white horse to attack our flank, but in fact it was just to lure the lord to the white horse, but he took the opportunity to relieve the siege of Yanjin." ”

Yuan Tan suddenly realized, punched his fist, and scolded Su Zhe for being treacherous.

Soon, he regained his composure and asked, "Among the 40,000 enemy troops who came, have you seen cavalry?" ”

"Hui Lord, according to our reconnaissance, most of the enemy troops are foot troops, and we have not seen a large number of cavalry."

Yuan Tan's expression turned cloudy to clear, revealing a sarcastic sneer: "Since the Su thief didn't bring cavalry, then there is nothing to be afraid of, we have five thousand iron cavalry, which is enough to deal with him." ”

Wen Chou also breathed a sigh of relief and asked, "What does the eldest prince want to do?" ”

Yuan Tan's face burned with pride, and he patted Wen Chou's shoulder: "Wen Zirui, breaking through Yanjin is just a small achievement, and now there is a big achievement in front of you and me, do you want it?" ”

"Great work?" Wen Chou's face was puzzled.

Yuan Tan led the way and said proudly: "The Su thief hurriedly led the army to Yanjin, just thinking that he had a lot of soldiers, but unfortunately he didn't know that we had 5,000 iron cavalry, and we just relied on the advantage of cavalry to give him a head-on attack and break the Su thief, which is the real great achievement." ”

Wen Chou's heart was shocked, and his ambition suddenly ignited.

He glanced back at the iron cavalry soldiers under his command, among which there were nearly 800 heavy armored cavalry, such a secluded iron cavalry, enough as 100,000 male soldiers, there was no suspense in defeating Su Zhe's 40,000 infantry army in this wilderness.

The great achievement is just around the corner, how can he not be moved.

When the ugliness said proudly: "Okay, the eldest prince has this courage, what is the last general to fear, let's kill Su Zhe without leaving a piece of armor!" ”

Yuan Tan was overjoyed and praised: "General Wen is worthy of our Hebei Shuangxiong, this courage is really admirable, then what are we waiting for, the Su thief will go for a while!" ”

At that moment, Yuan Tan left 5,000 infantry troops to continue to surround Baima, but he and Wen Chou led 5,000 iron cavalry to the south and went straight to the Soviet army.

At dusk, the two armies met five miles southeast of Yanjin City, and the two sides stopped advancing and lined up separately.

The remnant sun is like blood, and the heavens and the earth are slaughtered.

In the army of 40,000, Su Zhe immediately held his sword, standing proudly like a green pine, his eyes narrowed slightly, and he swept the enemy cavalry from a distance, and he couldn't see half a bit of fear in his eyes.

His strategy of attacking the east and west had succeeded, and Yuan Shao's main force had been successfully lured by him to Baima, and now, he could come and collect the 10,000 Yuan troops who had crossed the river without any scruples.

If this battle is won, it will be the first victory since the beginning of the war, and it will definitely boost the morale of his army and severely defeat Yuan Shao's arrogance.

He is determined to win this battle.

Su Zhe's gaze swept over the soldiers, and fell on the big banner with the word "high", and fell on the eight hundred soldiers in the trapping camp wearing heavy armor.

In order to induce Yuan Tan to take the initiative to meet the battle, Su Zhe deliberately did not bring cavalry to come, and if he wanted to win, all the bets could only be placed on the trapped camp.

"Gao Shun, don't let me down......" Su Zhe sighed secretly in his heart.

Five hundred steps ahead.

Yuan Tan stood proudly, glanced at the Soviet army from a distance, and sneered: "The Su thief really has no cavalry, he thinks that he can win with more soldiers and horses, it's really ridiculous, is this the so-called head of the Nine Wonders, I think it's just like that." ”

After sneering fiercely, Yuan Tan looked at Wen Chou: "Wen Zirui, the great work is in front of you, it's up to you." ”

Wen Chou's blood was boiling, his confidence was wild, the big gun in his hand pointed ahead, and shouted: "The knights of the Youji Alliance, the time has come for the Southern Army to tremble for our iron horses, follow me and leave no one behind them!" ”

Tom Tom Tom –

The drums of war rose to the sky, shattering the heavens and the earth.

Wen Chou rode out, brandished the big gun in his hand, and took the lead to kill him.

Five thousand secluded and iron horsemen roared, carrying the momentum of landslides and ground cracks, and rolled towards the Soviet army.

Five thousand iron horsemen, with eight hundred heavily armored iron horsemen, opened the way in front, forming a cone-shaped formation, unstoppable.

The earth trembled, and the dust and mist that flew up obscured the heavens and the earth, and made the heavens and the earth dark, as if the end had come.

Su Zhe's soldiers only clenched the swords and guns in their hands, and there was no fear on their faces.

In the battle of Nanyang back then, they had not fought against the Xiliang Iron Cavalry, and they had seen the power of the Iron Cavalry torrent, and they were all fearless of the world's No. 1 Xiliang Iron Cavalry, not to mention the secluded cavalry.

Their only concern was that their lord had put the 800 trap camp in front, thinking that with only 800 men could withstand the onslaught of the enemy's 5,000 iron cavalry.

Will you look too much down on the strength of the trapped camp?

In everyone's heart, the same question couldn't help but emerge, and the palms of their hands were sweaty.

Su Zhe's face was like water, his eyes did not have a trace of waves, his eyes fell on Gao Shun, and he muttered: "Gao Boping, this battle depends on you." ”

Former military formations.

Gao Shun is as steady as a rock, and there is only endless confidence burning in his eyes.

Looking at the soldiers of the trapped camp around him, his blood gradually burned, and he secretly thought in his heart: "I didn't expect that the trapped camp will reappear in the world, today, I Gao Shun will let everyone in the world know the prestige of the trapped camp!" ”

Ahead, the enemy cavalry had rushed to one hundred and fifty paces.

Gao Shun's thoughts returned to reality, took a deep breath, and shouted: "Trap the camp, form a tortoiseshell formation." ”

When the order was laid, the eight hundred trappers hurriedly approached, and the thick iron shield was raised high, stacked on top of each other like tortoise shells.

Gao Shun, who was in the array, shouted: "Crossbowman, release the arrow!" ”

The order was passed down, and more than 100 sharp arrows, through the crack of the tortoiseshell shield, roared out, and went straight to the oncoming enemy army.

In an instant, more than a dozen heavily armored horsemen of the Yuan army, who were charging forward, were hit by arrows in response and fell to the ground screaming.

The speed of the enemy's impact was slightly slowed down by the powerful crossbow arrows.

Wen Chou danced his spear to block the incoming arrows, looked up and carefully scanned the Soviet formation, only to find that before the Soviet formation, a shield array shaped like a huge turtle shell appeared.

A large banner with the word "high" flew over the shield array.

"Gao Shun, is it trapped in the camp?" Wen Chou's face changed and he was taken aback.

Wen Chou had naturally heard of the prestige of the trapped camp, and heard that it was a powerful heavy infantry that could restrain cavalry.

He suddenly realized now, and knew why Su Zhe dared to come to relieve Yanjin without cavalry, it turned out that this camp was what Su Zhe was afraid of.

In an instant, Wen Chou felt a little jealous and thought of withdrawing his troops.

Late.

His iron cavalry had already rushed closer to more than fifty paces, and his speed had reached the maximum, and at this time he ordered to withdraw his troops, and the cavalry could not control their speed, and would inevitably fall into a situation of colliding with each other, crowded, and chaotic.

At that time, Su Zhe took advantage of the situation to cover up the kill, and what awaited him would be an inevitable fiasco.

The arrow is already on the string, and it has to be sent!

"Okay, just let me see how strong the legendary trapping camp is, I don't believe you can block the impact of my iron cavalry!"

Wen Chou rekindled his arrogance, and his face was as resolute as iron.

He is one of the two heroes of Hebei, Wen Chou, who followed Yuan Shao to defeat the powerful Gongsun Zhan, and made great contributions, and is a veritable famous general in the world.

And Gao Shun in front of him is just an old general under Lu Bu, in terms of fame and strength, how can he be compared with his ugliness.

In this battle, how could he be timid and retreat!

Wen Chou, who was frenzied with fighting spirit, pointed at the big gun, and shouted: "Secluded and iron, there is no advance or retreat, give me a crush of the enemy formationβ€”β€”"

Under the urging of Wen Chou, the five thousand iron horsemen shook their spirits, faced the whistling arrows, and rushed to the trapping camp with indomitable progress.

Fifty Steps –

Thirty steps –

Twenty steps –

The impact is just around the corner.
