Chapter Forty-Six: The Killing Talent of Acting
Zhang Liao decisively began to divide his troops, and launched an outflanking from both sides of the Zhangjia cemetery, once his own army was encircled, these tomb robbers could be trapped on the periphery of the cemetery, and then annihilated. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info
The number of this gang of tomb robbers is really huge, and the tools needed for tomb robbing are actually pulled by a car frame, which can be regarded as arrogant to the limit.
Looking at the army of nearly 2,000 tomb robbers, Zhang Liao's slender eyes narrowed slightly, they were so blatant, they just wanted to make a fuss, and it was best to make the whole world know, so that the imperial court would issue a strict order to investigate thoroughly, so that Yuan Yun and the gunpowder army could be dragged to death.
Cao Ren played a good chess game, but unfortunately their plan had already been seen through by Yuan Yun, and now they were just meat on the board.
"The speed of the left flank is too fast, whether the general ordered them to slow down, after all, the important thing is to hide yourself." A lieutenant said suddenly.
At this moment, a herald had already arrived and immediately reported: "General Qiyu, the right flank has arrived at the designated position and can attack at any time." ”
Zhang Liao smiled, this gang of killers is now thirsty for military merits, almost to the point of outrageous, Chang'an City is a little too simple, many people have nothing to achieve this time, so today said that they will take them out to suppress the bandits, these bastards are all scrambling, and they are simply the opposite of other armies.
The lieutenant belonged to the general of the sword and shield man, and he glanced slightly to the right, and the team there had indeed touched the rear of the enemy army, and the speed was indeed very fast.
Why are these people so belligerent? This question actually puzzled him for a long time.
As soon as the gunpowder army heard the news, it was like a chicken blood, everyone was crazy and scrambled, desperately trying to join, but only a thousand people were helpless, and in the end they could only draw lots to decide.
And when he gathered people in the sword and shield camp, only a few people signed up, and in desperation, he could only decide by drawing lots, so that in comparison, the mood and face were very different.
Zhang Liao was silent for a moment, and then said to the herald: "You can start, the left flank steel squirrel will open the way, and the right flank gunpowder shells will suppress the fleeing enemy, and try to catch as many live as possible." ”
The herald made a promise, and immediately rushed out to deliver the order.
At this time, Zhang Liao felt a little soothed, as long as the encirclement was successful, it would be difficult for the enemy to fly out of his palm even if he inserted his wings.
At this time, he glanced at the deputy general next to him a little, Zhang Liao smiled, and said: "Don't be confused, the training methods of the gunpowder army are different from those of General Xu Chu and General Xiahou, so the soldiers who come out are also different, and the gunpowder army is more like a group of bandits, which makes the general smile." ”
The adjutant general smiled embarrassedly, knowing that Zhang Liao was speaking politely, such a powerful gunpowder army with strong combat power and not afraid of death, since he claimed to be a bandit, it is estimated that not many people dare to claim to be a regular army.
With a shallow salute, the deputy general said: "The general doesn't need to comfort me, our general's strength has long been known, and now he has lost compared to the momentum, this time the general will go back, and he will inevitably be punished by my marshal." ”
Zhang Liao smiled and said, "Don't worry, general, I have prepared a battle merit book for the general, and I guarantee that General Xu Chu and General Xiahou will definitely praise him." ”
Zhang Liao knows very well what Xu Chu and Xiahou Dun represent, these two can be said to be the backers of Xincheng, so they must not be offended, and to gain more favor from them, then we must start with the subordinates of these two masters.
When he was under Lu Bu, Zhang Liao never did these things, and he didn't know if he had been with Yuan Yun for a long time, and he began to become more or less tactful.
The lieutenant general seemed to be very happy, and his demeanor eased at the moment, not that he was not worried about the battle situation ahead, but he had seen too much, and he was completely surrounded by the gunpowder army, so he had to wait for death.
Sure enough, in a few moments, the sound of gunpowder bombs had already spread.
The first thing that those tomb robbers thought of after discovering that the cemetery was full of officers and soldiers was to escape, after all, when they were engaged in tomb robbing, everyone was somewhat weak in their hearts.
As soon as this thought began, the ranks of tomb robbers began to be chaotic, and an officer of Duan Xuan's level could not be in a group of tomb robbers at all, but where were a few teams suppressing this group of outlaws?
When the front team of more than 2,000 people was shot by the Gunpowder Army soldiers, the tomb robbers in the rear team began to flee, which made the entire phalanx of the whole team even more confused.
In a short time, the former soldiers of the Gunpowder Army, under the suppression of the steel horses, had already broken through into the phalanx of tomb robbers.
Those mixed sword and shield hands finally have a chance to perform, recently they have indeed held back for a long time, starting from Tongguan they basically have no chance to fight every time they fight, this time they can kill the enemy at close range, naturally let go of their hands and feet, this time like a wolf and a tiger, will see the enemy all killed.
Moreover, the cooperation between the sword and shield hand is skillful, and it is obvious that the usual training is in place, after all, they are all soldiers of Xu Chu and Xiahou Dun, so they naturally have this ability.
The soldiers of the Powder Army looked at the group of sword and shield players around them who had been 'low-key', and suddenly burst out with such combat power, and they all stretched out their thumbs one after another, and praised them again and again.
Now these sword and shield hands are even more proud, and they are even more fearless in killing the enemy, almost everyone has become a demon god, and everywhere they pass is corpses all over the field, and blood is flowing like a river.
The tomb robbers who finally escaped collapsed, and the gunpowder army in the rear began to pick up gunpowder shells and throw them, and rows of firelight continued to explode in the darkness before dawn, and every time they flashed, you could see the changing frightened expressions of the tomb robbers.
The battle reached this level, Zhang Liao didn't bother to command at all, just sat in the rear and analyzed the scene in front of him with the lieutenant general.
The lieutenant general was very happy today, he knew that Zhang Liao had already endorsed their gang of sword and shield players, and now he saw that these soldiers he brought suddenly seemed to have been beaten with chicken blood, and everyone rushed in front of the gunpowder army, this kind of long-faced thing is naturally to be proud of.
"The brothers of the Gunpowder Army are really heroic, they are all things that we outsiders should learn from, and this time I came to fight with the general, and the general benefited a lot, I am really grateful." After the deputy general finished speaking, he solemnly arched his hand at Zhang Liao.
Zhang Liao also returned the salute, but did not reply, but scolded in his heart.
When I go back later, I will definitely put the gunpowder army of the former army in order, although it is my own order, try to let the brothers of the sword and shield hand show it today, so that they will not have resentment in their hearts.
But you can't be so obvious, can you?
A group of gunpowder soldiers first shot the enemy's formation out of order, and then deliberately let the opening release of the sword and shield hand rush out, and those enemy soldiers were all shot in the leg, and they had no ability to resist at all, and they could kill women and children with a weapon.
With such an obvious transfer of military merits, which bastard took the lead? I will definitely ask clearly, I can't act, a bunch of brainless killers!
With the last group of tomb robbers disarmed, the battle that lasted for more than an hour also ended, and now there were only more than 400 of the more than 2,000 tomb robbers left, most of the others were killed, and a small group of people fled in a panic.
To Zhang Liao's surprise, these captured people were not so panicked, it was impossible for them not to know the fate of the tomb robbers, and their expressions were still so calm, which could only prove that they were indeed cultivated by Cao Ren.
Maybe these tomb robbers are just waiting to be rescued by their General Cao Ren at the moment, just thinking about the past, all this is just a misunderstanding with the official army.
Zhang Liao did not give these tomb robbers the possibility of such hope, because more than 400 captives had already had 100 heads cut off, and then another 100 people were escorted out, and they were kicked to their knees by the soldiers of the Powder Army, and the sharp butcher's knives were still waiting for them.
The remaining two hundred or so tomb robbers only reacted at this time, and maybe no one would come to pick them up at all, because soon they would also become corpses with different heads.
Zhang Liao raised his hand slightly, stopped the hundred butcher knives that he was about to swing, and then shouted to the two hundred captives who were kneeling on the ground: "As long as the general is willing to tell the truth, the others will be beheaded, and the number of places is limited, and those who want to live should stand up early." ”
After Zhang Liao finished speaking, the raised hand immediately fell, and the hundred butcher knives were also cut off, and another hundred heads rolled on the ground, and blood sprayed everywhere.
As soon as this scene was shown, countless tomb robbers rushed to stand up, and then they were pulled down by their own people around them, so the scene immediately became a bastard, a group of tomb robbers attacked each other, slandered each other, and even bit off each other's flesh alive.
At this time, the friendship of any comrades-in-arms is gone, life is the most important thing, there are only fifty places, no one wants to die, that is only desperate.
Then the soldiers of the Gunpowder Army were surprised to find that these tomb robbers killed their own people more heroically than fighting the enemy, more than 200 people were locked behind a makeshift wooden fence, frantically screaming, fighting, fighting, because there were no weapons, they could only use the most primitive hands and feet, even teeth.
Zhang Liao just looked at it coldly, without any intention of stopping it, he really didn't need so many people, as long as there were fifty people willing to confess, it would be enough for Cao Ren and Duan Xuan to drink a pot.
As for the other tomb robbers who were killed by their companions, there was no need for any sympathy, because these people could not be called human beings at all.
Half an hour later, there were less than seventy or eighty tomb robbers who could still stand, and Zhang Liao asked his subordinates to start dividing each other, and those who were still struggling on the ground were quickly mended without any mercy.
Seventy or eighty men were divided into three or four groups again, and then they were guarded by the Gunpowder Army, and the battle was truly over here.
At this time, the Zhang clan was also released, they witnessed everything at the scene, and they already understood that what Zhang Liao said before was true, and at this moment, naturally everyone was moved, and they bowed their heads one after another, shouting the gunpowder army for righteousness, and wanted to go to the court to commend it.
After Zhang Liao left, the next day he heard an unexpected news, nearly a thousand heads of tomb robbers were strung with wooden sticks by the Zhang clan, and then hung on the periphery of the family cemetery, which was a deterrent, so that no one else dared to fight the idea of this place again.
