Chapter 143: (Yuan Rui is captured)
Once the war starts, it is necessary to kill the winner and lose, Shangguan Yin Feng looked coldly at Huang Wei commanding the soldiers to fight with those Yan soldiers, blood splashed in all directions. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. biqUgE。 info
Salt Mountain, the terrain is single, the left is the Salt Mountain, the middle is an endless plain, the right is the Yanyuan River that only relies on the plain, the river is not wide, but if the army passes, there are not a few hours or even a day is not good, the right side of the Yanyuan River is a mountain that stretches together, the terrain can be described as unique.
That is to say, once Shangguan Yin Feng marched on the plain at the foot of the Salt Mountain and was blocked by Yuan Rui from behind, then there were only two directions to break through the siege, and finally the Salt Mountain on the left, of course, when Yuan Huan's 600,000 army was defeated, Li Yanqing was captured all over the mountains, and none of those who fled into the Salt Mountain escaped alive, either dead or captured.
Of course, this plain is so big, it can also be imagined that Yuan Huan's hundreds of thousands of people, including Yuan Jingchu's 200,000 people, plus Li Yanqing's hundreds of thousands of troops can be placed on this plain, you can know how big this plain is.
"Kill..."
Huang Wei gave the order, and the whole army attacked, of course, Yuan Shijie guessed in his heart that Shangguan Yin Feng was trapped here, and it was already the end of the crossbow, as long as he used a little force, he could easily defeat this army of only 20,000 people.
"Great King, the enemy army is now trapped, and the last general is willing to lead 20,000 men to rush over and give his head to the king." One of Yuan Shijie's lieutenants had a smile on his face, and in his opinion, Shangguan Yin Feng, who was trapped here, was already a lamb to be slaughtered, and he only needed a little force to take them all down.
The corners of Yuan Shijie's mouth rose slightly, revealing a victor's smile, not only his subordinates, but also himself had a winning mentality for Shangguan Yin Feng, who was trapped here, and attacked back and forth, and he had 180,000 troops and 20,000 horses, which was not worth mentioning in his eyes.
"Tell everyone, don't use wheel warfare, just rush up directly, only 20,000 people, don't be afraid, pass the order, in addition to taking the reward that Shangguan Yin Feng put forward first, anyone who captures alive or heads his generals will be crowned pavilion marquis, township marquis, and county marquis in order according to their rank, and tell them to do their best."
Yuan Shijie's conditions can be described as tempting, and even the generals under Shangguan Yin Feng have been offered such a high reward, which shows how jealous Yuan Jingchu is of Shangguan Yin Feng.
Due to Yuan Shijie's order, the soldiers and soldiers under his command rose up to kill the enemy, and rushed towards the battle formation in front.
Shangguan Yin Feng didn't understand why the other party had become so fierce, but he was relieved after a while, as the pillar of the Cheng Dynasty, once he was captured or killed, the Yan army would be like entering the Central Plains in a no-man's land, even if the Tuoba clan and Liu Xuan were united, they could not do anything.
"Lord Wang." Huang Wei's face was covered with blood, just now he had already come and gone in the chaotic army a few times: "The enemy is attacking very fiercely, and the battle formation is about to be unable to hold on, so I also ask the prince to support." ”
"Huang Wei, pass the order, except for the Shenji Battalion, all of them will attack, and they must be blocked." Shangguan Yin Feng frowned, now those Yan troops are at their peak in morale, even if they invest in the Shenji Battalion and cavalry, they may not be able to kill those Yan troops.
After Huang Wei got the order, he knew Shangguan Yin Feng's plan behind him, nodded, and arched his hand: "The last general understands." ”
On the salt mountain, Murong Xuehu and the others, who clearly looked at the scene of rushing and killing on the plain, were a little impatient, Murong Fengming wanted to lead the army to rush down several times, but they were stopped by Murong Xuehu, the reason is very simple, Shangguan Yin Feng made it clear that he could not act without getting the arrow.
"Smack... Syllable... Syllable... Smack..."The sound of fried beans sounded, and the soldiers under Yuan Rui who rushed in front fell to the ground one after another, looking at the black-clothed people with long black sticks, Yuan Rui's soldiers who originally wanted to continue rushing stopped, their eyes full of horror.
"What are those things?" An old soldier with a spear had watched his robe fall without any stab wounds.
"I don't know, I haven't seen it." Another soldier said.
"They can do sorcery, they can do sorcery."
It was the shout of this soldier that made the military formation under Yuan Rui begin to change greatly, Qian Menglong saw the situation, and the opportunity came, so he shouted: "All the soldiers, disperse, kill..."
"Kill..."
"Smack... Syllable... Syllable... The sound of fried beans sounded again, and another group of Yuan Rui soldiers fell to the ground.
"Oh my god—" A soldier dropped his weapon and turned around and ran.
Under the leadership of Qian Menglong and Yan Xiao, with only 2,000 people, Yuan Rui's army directly killed Yuan Rui's army with more than 10,000 people, which made Yuan Rui's army confused, and the soldiers threw away their weapons and fled.
"Those who run again will be killed." Yuan Rui personally killed several soldiers who had escaped, and shouted, even if he killed a few people, he still couldn't suppress those people, and he still ran away.
"Report..."A herald rode to Yuan Shijie's horse and shouted: "King Qiyu, after the enemy army used witchcraft and killed nearly 100 of us, General Yuan Rui's army was in turmoil, and now the rear is rout, and it is difficult to stop. ”
"What?" Yuan Shijie was furious, it was witchcraft, and the battle of Anyang was the same, although he had not experienced it personally, but he had heard those soldiers who had fled mentioned it: "Where is General Yuan Rui now?" ”
"Back to the king, General Yuan Rui is struggling to block it, but with little success, the enemy is attacking fiercely, and there are witches to help, and the rear army may be difficult to resist." The herald had a look of horror on his face, as he could imagine when he saw his own people being killed by the 'wizards' with sorcery.
"Ah..." Yuan Shijie shouted, pulled out the long sword at his waist, and shouted: "The whole army is attacking, and you must not let go of a soldier of the Cheng Dynasty..."
"Kill..."
Seeing that he personally led the army to rush and kill, Shangguan Yin Feng showed a smug smile at the corner of his mouth, and now in addition to the hundred musketeers led by Huang Botao, there are still two hundred musketeers in the Shenji Battalion on standby: "Zhang Xiong, pass the order, the front army will form a formation, the musketeers of the Shenji Battalion will be in the center, and this king will personally go forward to fight a decisive battle with the enemy." ”
"No..."
Zhang Xiong has been waiting for a long time, and now the opportunity has finally come, and it is time for him to play.
"Formation...", Huang Wei, who was originally fighting with the Yan army in front, immediately led the army back to the cage, and under the cover of the soldiers with big shields, they slowly formed a semicircular phalanx, Shangguan Yin Feng rode in the center, and the two hundred musketeers were ready, just waiting for Shangguan Yin Feng to give an order.
"Kill..."
"Shoot..."
"Papa............"
The guns rang out, and the Liaobei cavalry who rushed to the front fell off their horses one after another, and many of the infantry in the rear fell to the ground, and they were lucky enough to rush through the musket shots, and when they arrived in front of the formation, they were indiscriminately poked to death by soldiers with spears and big shields, which was unbearable.
It was such a messy rush and repeated impact, the battle lasted for six hours from the very beginning, the night finally came, the Yan army had been tired, Yuan Rui in the rear due to the military formation has been in chaos, the whole army was defeated, because the person directly commanded this time was Yuan Shijie, Yuan Rui did not dare to retreat at all, only to fight to the death, but he was alone and unable to speak, and finally under the attack of Qian Menglong and Huang Botao, he was hit in the leg and left shoulder by the arquebus, so that he lost the ability to fight, fell from the horse, and was captured by Qian Menglong.
It is also a matter of luck, after the projectile fired by the arquebus hit Yuan Rui's body, because he was a general, and his own financial resources were relatively strong, he added a chain mail to the inner layer of the armor, and after the projectile hit his shoulder, it did not penetrate deep into the body, but stayed in the surface of the body, and the projectile can be seen with the naked eye, if it is not chain mail, I am afraid that his entire left arm will be scrapped.
The captured Yuan Rui wanted to draw his sword and commit suicide, but was stopped by Qian Menglong, so Yuan Rui was also the first general of Yan State to be captured alive, and he was the first person to be captured among the generals of Baliang in Hebei.
