Chapter 799: Reinforcements Arrive
On the mountainside of Erlong Mountain, the battle is still going on, and it is getting more and more fierce, and there are signs of developing towards purgatory.
The two armies of Yan and Shu are both elite, the Yan army galloped to the north and wiped out all the opponents, and the Shu army was in the south, although it was not the strongest infantry, but it was not weak.
When the Yan army broke through the shield array of the Shu army, the two sides began to fight with white knives, the white knives entered, the red knives came out, the swords flew, the blood was like a spring, spurting out from the bodies of the two armies, splashing in the air, and falling to the ground, making the mountainside gradually turn into a sea of blood.
At the foot of Erlong Mountain, at the gate of the military camp, Wen Zhiming's eyes were always staring at the situation on the southern slope of Erlong Mountain.
At first, the Shu army moved smoothly, he was worried, worried about being ambushed by the Yan army, when the Yan army showed its traces, the more he fought, the more courageous he became, the more he looked at him, the more ugly his face became, and his eyes began to spew anger, as if he was about to burn.
The situation on the battlefield is changing rapidly, since Li Dongming led the army to fight, it seems to be in danger, and he has forcibly reversed the situation many times, but unfortunately it is too late to counterattack, and it was quickly changed by Yan Cai, and he firmly gained the upper hand.
Every time Li Dongming spends his strength to turn the situation around and turn defense into offense, the Shu army will pay a lot of price and cause a lot of casualties.
He really admired the cavalry skills of the Yan army, in the mountainside, in the steep terrain, tens of thousands of cavalry seemed to be walking on the ground, without the slightest rustiness or fear.
Otherwise, how could Yan Qi dare to be so unscrupulous and come and go freely in the mountainside.
Seeing that Li Dongming led the Shu army to gradually lose the upper hand, Wen Zhiming began to get anxious in his heart, if he did not send an army to help, the troops led by Li Dongming would definitely be defeated, and whether the 30,000 Shu army could retreat with their whole body was unimaginable.
In this battle, the Shu army only had 100,000 people in Jiangbei, Wen Zhiming glanced at Geng Zhongbiao and Guo Xiaohu who were preparing for war in the military camp, and gradually dispelled the idea of the Shu army led by the two to rescue Li Dongming, and then walked a few steps forward to Han Zhitong's side, and said: "General Han, the Yan army was big before, beyond prior expectations, it may be difficult for the Shu army to fight against the Yan cavalry alone, at this moment, the Shu army in Erlong Mountain needs support!" ”
Before the Shu army went to war, Wu Jieshao had generously ceded his military exploits to the Shu army, and Wang Zhengwen also mentioned that if the Shu army attacked unfavorably, he would assist the Shu army to attack the mountain.
He didn't dare to make a desperate bet and send out all the Shu army, otherwise he would fight to the death with the Yan army, maybe the Shu army would capture Erlong Mountain, but the Shu army would inevitably suffer heavy casualties.
What should the Shu army do in the next war, so the Shu army went all out to attack the mountain, and it must have made a wedding dress for the remaining four countries.
At this moment, the Shu army is in crisis, and Wen Zhiming hopes that through the mouth of Han Zhitong, some coalition troops will be sent to help the Shu army resolve the urgent need, and by the way, take advantage of the appearance of the main force of the Yan army, hit the other side hard, determine the battle of Erlong Mountain, and achieve victory.
Hearing this, Han Zhitong knew very well what to do, did not discuss with Wang Zhengwen, Wu Jieshao, and Zhang Yuting, and turned to the deputy general beside him, who was also the general Chen Dongyu who led the army to successfully capture Erlong Mountain, make the Chu army enter Zheng State, and occupy the southern part of Zheng State.
"General Chen, lead 100,000 Xuanjia soldiers under your command to Erlong Mountain to meet the Shu army!"
The Chu army is the main force attacking Yan, before the Shu army took the lead in attacking, although it encountered danger, but it was still fighting to the death, at this moment, Han Zhitong felt that the Chu army should set an example!
However, there are currently two battlefields, and the Shu army cannot take care of them all, so Han Zhitong did not hesitate, turned his head to Wang Zhengwen, and said: "General Wang, in order to ensure the victory of the mountain attack, can you send troops to the Erlong Mountain Road to meet the Shu army, at that time, the number of coalition forces will stabilize the Yan army, not to mention that the combat effectiveness is not weak, and the capture of Erlong Mountain tonight is bound to be successful." ”
Wang Zhengwen nodded unceremoniously, and said to the deputy general Qiu Lengye beside him: "General Qiu, lead 50,000 Wu troops to the mountain road to meet the Shu army." ”
Both Han Zhitong and Wang Zhengwen witnessed the Battle of Yanshu with their own eyes, and through the battle, it was completely clear that the Yan Army was by no means an idle person.
Although the five countries attacked Yan from three sides, totaling as many as one million, exceeding the entire military strength of Yan State, the performance of the Yan army today made the five people see that after several years of conquest, the Yan army has indeed become very powerful.
This time the Five Kingdoms invaded Yan, if they were not treated carefully, not to mention the outcome of the other two armies, their 600,000 troops alone would lose their troops and be blocked at the foot of Erlong Mountain.
Therefore, in order to win this war, the five-nation alliance must unite and go all out to attack the Yan army.
The military order was issued, and 100,000 Xuanjia soldiers and 50,000 Wu troops began to rush to Erlong Mountain, two different battlefields.
Under the darkness of the night, the battle situation suddenly became more and more solemn, and the coalition forces seemed to have made up their minds and were ready to take advantage of the night to seize Erlong Mountain!
More than 100,000 coalition troops seemed to be approaching Erlong Mountain, causing a lot of movement, even if the sky gradually darkened, halfway up the mountainside, Yan Cai, who was fighting fiercely with the Shu army, also noticed the fierce coalition army down the mountain, and quickly told Feng Yi about the other party's movements.
Feng Yi led the troops in a roundabout way, breaking through the shield array of the Shu army from both wings, causing very large losses to the other party, almost half of the Shu army died tragically, of course, the losses of the Yan army were not small, as many as 5,000 people.
Seeing that the situation was clear, Yan Qi could rush and kill unscrupulously, severely damage or even annihilate this bold coalition force, but when Yan Qi came with news, Feng Yi rode a horse and watched, and he couldn't help but feel a little angry in his heart.
Yan Qi is about to win, but the other side is menacing, it is obvious that not only to rescue the Shu army besieged by Yan Cai, but also to prepare to inflict heavy damage on the Yan army, or capture Erlong Mountain.
This point, Feng Yi is not surprised, after all, there are 600,000 coalition troops under the mountain, and the Shu army is the vanguard, mostly to test the deployment of the Yan army, and the other party will definitely not watch the Shu army being annihilated by the Yan army.
Therefore, when he led his troops down the mountain before, he had to prepare early, otherwise, all the 200,000 Yan troops would be thrown into the battlefield, and they would not be completely surrounded by the coalition forces.
Without the slightest hesitation, Feng Yi shouted loudly in the chaotic army, and said: "Brothers, fight quickly, quickly eliminate this Shu army force, and move directly to the top of the mountain!" ”
From the beginning of this war, Feng Yi felt that if the Yan army would win a big victory, it would not be able to fight a quick battle and inflict heavy losses on the other side, and if it was defeated, it would not allow the coalition army to win easily.
Therefore, Feng Yi thought that in every battle, he fought fiercely with the coalition army and showed signs of difficult victory, so that the coalition army could be severely damaged, and it would not be that the Yan army would win, be feared by the other party, and completely fall into isolation, or the Yan army would be defeated and be severely damaged by the opponent.
Therefore, the moment Feng Yi rushed down the mountain to quickly annihilate the 30,000-strong Shu army in front of him, he made up his mind.
At the sound of an order, Yan Qi moved quickly, the head knife in his hand rose and fell, and the blood splashed, and all of a sudden, the scene became violent, evil, and cruel.
The corpses of the Shu army, like wooden stakes, fell to the ground one by one, along the hillside, and gradually rolled down the mountain.
However, there must be brave men under the heavy reward, not to mention that the Yun army under the mountain is approaching quickly, and the Shu army is in a very bad situation.
They believed that as long as reinforcements arrived, the situation would be reversed, and defeat would be turned into victory, and the Yan army would most likely be completely surrounded.
The two sides were literally blood and blood, knives and knives, and life and life collided, and in the night-shrouded mountainside, casualties seemed to occur at every moment.
However, the situation of the Shu army seemed to be getting worse and worse under the strong crushing of the Yan cavalry, however, Feng Yi's plan to completely annihilate the Shu army seemed impossible to achieve when the coalition army rushed up the mountainside.
This made Feng Yi extremely depressed and helpless!
After two intersperses, the coalition forces got closer and closer, and glancing at the remaining Shu army, Feng Yi let out a long sigh and said, "The whole army is evacuated!" Retreat to the top of the mountain and fight again! ”
This retreat is by no means because the Yan army is weak in combat, it is better to defend Erlong Mountain, from the previous attack as defense, to defense as attack, no matter what the situation of the Yan army is, it will not change Feng Yi's idea of wantonly depleting the living force of the coalition army.
Li Dongming, who was killed, almost died under the head knife of the Yan army, Li Dongming saw the Yan cavalry retreating as if the tide, wiped the blood splashed on his forehead, grabbed the spear on the soles of his feet, raised it high, and shouted: "The reinforcements arrived, and the Yan army fled in a hurry, it is time for us to make contributions." ”
In this battle, tens of thousands of Shu troops were killed, but instead of severely damaging the Yan army, they were fled.
Li Dongming has never suffered such a loss, but he is very helpless, the current reinforcements are coming, he is ready to defend as an attack, ready to seize Erlong Mountain, and vent his anger in his heart.
At this time, on a cold autumn night under the mountain, Chen Dongyu led the troops to rush up, gradually converged with the Shu army, and caught up with the top of the mountain.
However, the Yan cavalry rushed to attack, how could the infantry pursue, and soon the two sides distanced themselves.
When the first Yan cavalry arrives at the top of the mountain, those who are interested will find that rows of stone throwers have been erected in advance on the north slope, like tall giants, standing on the north slope, and the stones are closely placed next to it, proving that the Yan army has been prepared.
After all, the Yan army stationed 200,000 troops in Erlong Mountain, Feng Yi led 100,000 troops to attack the Shu army on the southern slope, but Tuoba Yu only led 50,000 troops, relying on the terrain advantage to block the coalition forces in the mountain road.
Therefore, there are these 50,000 Yan troops, who set up their catapults early and prepare to storm the Shu army!
With the rapid ascending of the Yan cavalry, and with the rapid pursuit of the coalition forces, after Feng Yi boarded, he quickly changed his role, dismounted and stood on the top of the mountain, looking at the coalition troops charging down the mountain, with a faint smile rising on the corner of his mouth.
With the gathering of the coalition forces, his previous task of destroying the enemy and luring the enemy was basically completed, and the next time for the coalition forces to really engage and decide the victory or defeat.
If the Yan army repels the coalition forces and wins temporarily, if it loses to the coalition forces, the only way to do so is to evacuate Erlong Mountain and find a suitable time to fight again.
Seeing that the large force of the coalition army began to board, Feng Yi suddenly shouted: "The cavalry is ready to fight, prepare to shoot the forward troops, load the catapult, launch it with all its might, and smash the attacking enemy to pieces!" ”
Feng Yi was not reconciled if he did not wipe out all the Shu army before, and hoped that this time he would not only wipe out the Shu army, but also severely damage the coalition army.
