Chapter 769: The Great War (1)

More than 13,000 cavalry troops of the Tang Army moved on the right flank of the army formation, and there was a lot of movement, which was quickly discovered by the Yan army, and a general shouted to Cui Qianyou: "General, look, the Tang army has moved!" ”

When Cui Qianyou heard this, he looked at the right flank of the Tang army, and saw that there was a large-scale cavalry movement on the right flank of the Tang army, and the weather had just cleared up, and there was no dust on the ground. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info

Seeing this situation, the faces of the rebel generals changed, and someone shouted: "General, it's not good, this Tang Army cavalry has at least more than 10,000 cavalry, and they are all elite light cavalry, and they are going to the east, could it be that our 20,000 cavalry hidden in Baliyi were discovered by them?" ”

Beads of sweat appeared on Cui Qianyou's forehead, this situation had not appeared on him for many years, and he muttered: "Impossible, impossible, I arranged it so carefully and secretly, how did Zhao Ziliang find out?" It's impossible! ”

A general next to him shouted: "General, the matter is already obvious, this Tang army is going for our 20,000 cavalry, Zhao Ziliang must know about this army of men and horses we are secretly ambushing, otherwise they would not have sent this cavalry to the east, it seems that one of us leaked the news!" ”

Cui Qianyou scanned every general here with a wolf-like gaze murderously, and the generals were numb by him, and they bowed down one after another: "General, we are loyal to the general, and we have never betrayed the general, we didn't do this!" ”

If it is a general with a little emotional intelligence, it is meaningless to investigate who leaked the news at this time, and it is not the time to investigate this matter, but Cui Qianyou has a stubborn and obedient personality, and he is often very impersonal in doing things, and now he knows that some of the generals and colonels present have leaked the news, causing his plan to sneak attack the Tang Army to fail, how can he bear it? He gritted his teeth and sneered, "Good, good, good, you keep saying that you are loyal to me, but why did my plan leak the news?" Except for a few of you, I didn't know about this matter, if it wasn't for some of you who leaked the news, how would Zhao Ziliang know? You tell me! ”

A subordinate general reminded: "General, now that the great enemy is present, it is not the time to investigate this matter, if the general wants to pursue it, wait until the Tang Army is defeated!" ”

Cui Qianyou decided that one of these people had leaked the news, he would never let this person go like this, he was a tenacious and inflexible person, he glanced back and forth in front of the generals with a murderous gaze, and his gaze suddenly stopped on a subordinate general named Hao Tongsheng.

"Hao Tongsheng!" Cui Qianyou shouted.

Hao Tongsheng's face changed greatly, and he hurriedly said: "General, this matter is definitely not the last general's doing, please check it out!" ”

Cui Qianyou shouted: "On weekdays, only you have the deepest resentment towards General Ben, and only the remarks and actions that are close to Li Tang from time to time, isn't it that you betrayed General Ben?" ”

Hao Tongsheng was persecuted by Cui Qianyou, and he was already dissatisfied, and now he was named a spy again, and immediately said angrily: "The surname is Cui, Lao Tzu has long known that you don't like Lao Tzu, and he always wants to get rid of Lao Tzu, but he has never been able to find a chance, and now you have finally found a excuse, okay!" Since you want to kill Lao Tzu, Lao Tzu will kill you first! After speaking, he pulled out his waist knife and slashed at Cui Qianyou.

Everyone was shocked, they didn't expect Hao Tongsheng to suddenly burst out, and the surrounding soldiers didn't react in time, Cui Qianyou was the party after all, when Hao Tongsheng's waist knife cut over, he hurriedly dodged, but he was still slashed by Hao Tongsheng in the shoulder, and the waist knife broke through the shoulder guard on Cui Qianyou's body and cut into the collarbone and shoulder blade.

"Ahh Cui Qianyou let out a miserable scream, raised a kick and kicked Hao Datong out, and then all the relatives and soldiers reacted, and they pulled out their weapons and rushed up to chop Hao Tongsheng into meat sauce.

Seeing Hao Tongsheng's tragic death, knowing that the leak was not Hao Tongsheng's so-called generals, they couldn't help but feel sad about the death of a rabbit and a fox, and their loyalty to Cui Qianyou and Yan Jun fell to the bottom for a while.

Hao Tongsheng's waist knife was still slashed on Cui Qianyou's shoulder at this time and was not pulled out, Cui Qianyou's face was seriously deformed in pain, his mouth kept screaming, and beads of sweat on his forehead kept falling down.

"Unplug it for me!" Cui Qianyou yelled.

Several pro-soldiers ran over and held down Cui Qianyou, and another pro-soldier pulled out the waist knife, Cui Qianyou screamed again, and a large amount of blood burst out, but was quickly wrapped in a strip of cloth by a pro-soldier to cover the wound.

However, at this time, the Tang army had already launched an attack, the 30,000 infantry of the Chinese army stepped on the drums, marched towards the rebels with neat steps, some of these infantry were sword and shield soldiers, holding a shield in one hand, holding a horizontal knife in the other hand, and the other part was a pikeman, after nearly a year of strict training, these soldiers had a strong military quality, the ranks of each of their teams were extremely neat, the distance between the soldiers and the soldiers was not different, no one deserted in the process of marching, the whole was the same, like a huge machine moving forward slowly.

"Boom, boom, boom・・・・・・" Every step the Tang Army infantry took, a huge roar sounded from the ground, and they trembled at any time.

This made the rebel soldiers change color one after another, and their hearts were timid, such a neat pace and formation would never have been possible without strict military discipline and strict drills, and this huge momentum brought a huge sense of oppression to the psychology of the rebel soldiers.

"General, the Tang army has been killed! What to do? When the rebel generals saw that tens of thousands of Tang troops were so neatly advancing, advancing like a wall, and Cui Qianyou was seriously injured, their faces changed drastically, and their hearts began to panic.

At this time, Cui Qianyou's wound had been bandaged by the soldiers, he stood up and observed it, and immediately said in pain with the wound: "At this moment, only a duel with the Tang army is a battle, and we must not escape, once there is a sign of escape, our army will inevitably be defeated, and then Zhao Ziliang will wave his army to cover up and kill, and we will die without a place to bury!" ”

When the generals heard this, they all began to make calculations in their hearts, and no one knew what the others really thought in their hearts.

Cui Qianyou said again: "Pass my general's order, order the 20,000 people in the front army to meet the enemy, rush up and fight with the Tang army!" ”

The order was conveyed, and the front of the rebels also began to move forward, facing the Tang army from the rush past, the rebel soldiers ran one by one with knives and shields, and the formation quickly dispersed, it seemed that the rebel soldiers rushed very fiercely, but the accompanying scattered, and the momentum was a lot lower.

The soldiers in the front of the two sides quickly collided together, and the Tang saber and shield soldiers leaned close to each other under the order of the team officer, blocking the rebel soldiers who rushed over with the shields in their hands.

The team officer stood in the middle of the team and shouted: "Sword and shield hand give me a stand, hold on!" Pikeman, assassination! ”

The sword and shield men in the first row held their shields tightly together with their hands, and the weapons of the rebel soldiers who rushed over slashed at the shields with a crisp sound.

"Hah!" The Tang spearmen in the second row stabbed their spears through the gaps in their shields quickly and fiercely, only to see the rebel soldiers who were stabbed on the opposite side screaming one after another.

The officers immediately shouted: "The sword and shield men are forward, and the spearmen continue to assassinate!" ”

The main task of the Knife and Shield Bearer is to block the attacks of the rebels' weapons, and the Lancer is mainly responsible for assassination, and the action is the same. Cold weapon warfare is by no means as simple as holding weapons and shields to charge at the enemy, which is no different from sending them to death, this is the routine of street gangsters fighting in groups, and the battle of the army in the era of cold weapons is to rely on battle formations, advance into the wall, and concentrate and give full play to the strength of all the officers and men of the whole army with strict military discipline and combat actions that have been formed.

Seeing that someone in the front row had a sword and shield soldier dead, the team officer immediately shouted: "The sword and shield soldier in the back is on top, quick!" All onwards, forward! Move forward! ”

After the rebel soldiers in the front row were stabbed to death by the pikemen, the officers of the Tang army ordered the sword and shield men to move forward, in this kind of large-scale battlefield, the human wall is so dense that it is almost impossible to fly a fly, and if you want to win, you must use all the strength of your body to seize any space, and beat the enemy back step by step, so as to form a chain reaction and make the enemy retreat on all fronts.

The rebel soldiers who did not have a neat formation could not concentrate and exert all their strength, and could not form a whole to oppose the Tang army, and were beaten back by the Tang army, and the rebels who rushed up from behind had to stop, but were squeezed back again and again by the rebel soldiers in front.

Rows of rebel soldiers were hacked to death and stabbed to death, the Tang soldiers stepped on the corpses and blood of the rebels to advance step by step, many of the Tang soldiers were injured, but in such a crowded battlefield, it was impossible to withdraw for medical treatment, so they could only hold on to their injuries and wait until the end of the battle to find Lang Zhong for treatment, and the unlucky wounded soldiers died of serious injuries before the battle was over.

Zhao Ziliang saw that the 30,000 infantry of the front army was advancing well, and immediately ordered: "Order 10,000 cavalry from each of the left and right flanks to attack the two wings of the rebels!" All other armies and units are on standby! ”

"Yes!"

The cavalry on both wings of the Tang army was dispatched, and the ground of the entire battlefield shook even more, and the front of the rebels began to be a little unable to resist, Cui Qianyou had to order 30,000 reinforcements from the Chongzhong army, in an attempt to turn back the situation with a temporary advantage in strength and take the opportunity to launch a counterattack, and at the same time ordered 5,000 cavalry on the left and right flanks to meet the 20,000 cavalry rushing over by the Tang army.

Zhao Ziliang ordered 20,000 archers to move forward, only behind the 30,000 infantry of the front army, to carry out long-range strikes on the front of the rebels and the 30,000 rebels who had been reinforced.

An overwhelming barrage of arrows flew into the sky and fell in a parabola, and the dense rebels who were crowded together were devastated, falling and dying in pieces. (To be continued.) )
