Chapter 125: The Decisive Battle in Youxian (4)
Wei Yan led a group of lost cavalry to withdraw from the battlefield for nearly two miles, this tiger general of Weihai County glanced at the cavalry under his command, almost breathed out a mouthful of old blood, looked around, four thousand cavalry, less than eight hundred remained, and all of them were wounded, and their breath was sluggish, such a soldier, how to fight the next battle?
"Cheer me up, look at what you look like one by one, if you continue to fight like this, we will all die!" The angry Wei Yan shouted at the cavalry under his command. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info
It's just that Wei Yan's loud shout is useless, because these soldiers are still very sluggish like frost-beaten eggplants.
"General Wei!" Wei Yan still wanted to continue scolding, Guo Xin approached at this time, this class of Wensheng was also disgraced at the moment, and said to Wei Yan with a tired expression, "General Wei, the Han army is strong in combat and has a high momentum, are we sure of this battle!" ”
Hearing this, Wei Yan glanced at Guo Xin, and said in a deep voice: "We have no way to retreat, defeating the Han army in front of us is our only chance to get a trace of vitality, although the Han army is high, but after all, the number is too small, our army has nearly 40,000 people, even if it is a wheel war, it can crush them, Liu Chen, the lord of the Han army, is there, as long as we can defeat the Han army and kill Liu Chen, then this war, we will win!" ”
Hearing this, Guo Xin was silent, indeed, the number of Han troops is not much, but can they really defeat the Han army in one fell swoop and kill Liu Chen? Guo Xin didn't know the bottom of his heart.
Wei Yan didn't pay attention to Guo Xin's reaction, called a soldier over, and said to him: "You can go to the rear army and bring the thousand cavalry over!" ”
The warrior answered yes, and rode away.
"General, do you want to bring the cavalry over again and then charge?" Guo Xin asked.
Nodding, Wei Changchang sighed and said: "The Han army has no cavalry, this is our last chance, now let the infantry army all press up, as long as Liu Chen forces all the troops into battle, then we will win this battle, I don't believe that the infantry army that is in a stalemate can withstand the charge of nearly two thousand cavalry!" ”
It can be seen that Wei Yan is planning to make a desperate bet, in fact, there is no road for Wei Yan to choose, the hostility between Weihai County and the Han army is already a matter of nailing to the board, either you die or I live, in this case, Wei Yan can only fight to the death!
The soldiers of the Praetorian Guard Battalion have been besieged by tens of thousands of soldiers from Weihai County, but in the face of such a situation, Situ Jiannan did not panic at all, with heavy infantry as the first line of defense, forming a tortoiseshell formation, relying on heavy shields, firmly defending against attacks from all directions, while the light infantry stabbed directly with spears after the heavy infantry, and cut off the enemy's feet under the shield with combat knives.
"Situ Jiannan really didn't disappoint me, after this battle, this Praetorian Guard battalion has become a strong force after all." Looking at the performance of the Praetorian Guard Battalion, Liu Chen nodded, and then said to Xiahou Ying beside him, "Go, go and help Situ Jiannan, the soldiers of the Praetorian Guard Camp can't all fold here!" ”
First blocked the enemy cavalry, and then fought with the opponent's infantry army, the Praetorian Guard Battalion had been fighting for more than an hour, with more than half of the casualties, and there were less than 3,000 people left, after all, this was Liu Chen's direct army, and the performance of the Praetorian Guard Battalion had already satisfied Liu Chen, so he ordered Xiahou Ying, who had been impatient, to join the battle group!
Xiahou Ying ordered, shook the spear in his hand, and shouted: "Brothers of the Marine Battalion, Pao Ze is fighting, Pao Ze is bleeding, you say, what should we do!" ”
"Kill! Kill! Kill! "Five thousand soldiers from the Marine Battalion of the Navy Division shouted the word "Killing", their blood was boiling, their fighting intentions were burning, and seeing that Pao Ze was still struggling to kill the enemy under the siege of tens of thousands of enemy troops, these elite soldiers of the Navy Division had already been unable to bear the loneliness in their hearts.
"Brothers of the Marine Battalion, follow me and kill!" Xiahou Ying shouted loudly and led the five thousand marine battalions to quickly rush towards the battle group.
The addition of the new force of the 5,000 Han army has given great pressure to the soldiers of Weihai County, although they have many people, but the morale is not high, to deal with the Praetorian Guard Battalion, if it is not for the number of their own side is obviously more than the other party, I am afraid that these soldiers of Weihai County City will not dare to fight, but the soldiers in front of them have fallen one by one, and the more than 2,000 soldiers of the Han Army are still standing, and these soldiers of Weihai County have a trace of fear in their hearts.
The sudden entry of the marine battalion, the soldiers of Weihai County were in chaos, and nearly a thousand people were slaughtered by the soldiers of the marine battalion, and they reacted, turned their heads one after another, and fought with the Han soldiers of the marine battalion.
"Chen Ying, let the archers block the shooting and shoot those enemy troops who are far away and have not squeezed into the battle group!" Liu Chen said to Chen Ying.
Chen Ying was not ambiguous, and ordered the archers to release arrows, and the arrow rain was scattered all over the sky, and almost all the foot soldiers of Weihai County City gathered here, and it was very dense, so when the arrow rain fell, it was accompanied by the soldiers of Weihai County City falling in batches.
Occasionally, a Han soldier was unfortunately shot, but obviously, he couldn't care so much at the moment, if he was shot by his own people, then he could only say that he was on his back, after all, Chen Ying let the archers shoot only the enemy troops on the periphery.
The cavalry under Wei Yan has been in place, more than 1,700 knights are eyeing two miles away, when he saw the five thousand foot soldiers under Liu Chen joining the battle, Wei Yan's eyes suddenly lit up, he was waiting for this time, now Liu Chen's side is available in addition to the more than 3,000 archers who have no defense, there is only a small group of guards left, this is a good moment for Wei Yan to launch an attack.
"Brothers, follow me and kill Liu Chen! Rush! Wei Yan raised the big sword, roared, took the lead, and killed in the direction of Liu Chen, Wei Yan moved, and the remaining more than 1,700 momentum also burst out of the only remaining momentum, and roared and launched a charge.
Chen Ying, who was not far from Liu Chen's side, found this scene, he was almost frightened, he only had three thousand crossbowmen under his command, and he was good at long-range strikes, but the close-range combat was to fall into the next place, so he hurriedly ordered the archers to shift the target and aim at the cavalry that was rushing in, he only thought about a few rounds of arrow rain down and shot these cavalrymen.
However, Liu Chen stopped Chen Ying and let Chen Ying continue to attack the enemy's infantry army, while he led two hundred knights to slowly move away.
It's not that there are no cavalry in Liu Chen's hands, it's just that there are few pitiful, only two hundred cavalry, this is still the cavalry used by the marine battalion for reconnaissance, but when facing the charge of the enemy cavalry, when Liu Chen was the first to ride his horse, none of the knights showed fear, they pulled out the swords in their hands, followed Liu Chen, and rode the horse!
"Choke!" Liu Chen's Cold Sun Sword was instantly unsheathed, pointing at Wei Yan and the more than a thousand cavalrymen, burning with battle intent, and roared: "I am invincible!" ”
"I'm invincible!" The two hundred Han cavalry let out an earth-shattering roar, and the war horses under their crotches began to accelerate until they launched a charge!
