Chapter 430: Xiliang Journey (62)
Xu Maogong dared to say such a thing, of course, he made some preparations. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ļ½ļ½ļ½Uļ½Eć The info army doesn't seem to have a formation, but there are a lot of mysteries in it, as long as it is changed slightly, it is a lore array.
The siege lasted for a long time, and Du Ran and Wu Qing were extremely cautious, and they waited until the enemy soldiers besieging the city showed fatigue, and then the two decided to lead the army to attack.
Du Ran ordered Wu Qing to lead the army to kill, but when Wu Qing walked to the city, he temporarily changed his mind, and for some reason, he felt a little panicked in his heart.
Could it be some bad premonition?
He finally chose a lieutenant to replace him in the battle, leading 5,000 troops out of the city.
This lieutenant's name is Duan Jin, he is one of his confidants, his martial arts are not bad, he has always wanted to be promoted, but he has no chance, but now it is a good opportunity, Wu Qing promised, if he can win this battle, he will be promoted to Du Ran and promoted him to General Zuo.
When Duan Jin heard this, of course he was overjoyed, and immediately agreed to come down and rushed out with five thousand people.
The gates of the city were wide open, and 5,000 soldiers and horses rushed out.
The soldiers who were originally attacking the city outside the city were killed by him in an instant, and they all moved closer to the side to avoid the charge of the iron cavalry, and the drawbridge was lowered, and the five thousand cavalry crossed the drawbridge and killed the army in the distance.
At this time, I only heard the horn of Mingjin in the military formation where Cheng Yanjin was, and the besieging soldiers quickly retreated, carrying the siege tower and pontoon bridge, retreating to both sides, and roundabout back to the army.
The cavalry of 5,000 men was very large, and when it was only 1,000 out, it had already galloped into the battlefield. Xu Maogong looked up and sneered: "It's good to come, see how I kill the enemy." ā
"The order is that our front army will make a detour to the two wings, and the rear army's iron cavalry will kill the front army from the two wings and outflank the enemy; Order the 50,000 soldiers of the Chinese army to set up a demon gossip array to meet the enemy! ā
"Order."
There were several heralds standing behind him, and three of them immediately rushed out to convey Xu Maogong's military orders.
"What kind of formation is your Demon Bagua Array, why have I never heard you talk about it?"
After the herald left, Cheng Yanjin asked.
Xu Maogong: "Hehe... This is my new creation, which evolved according to the Bagua Array, which is more convenient and more dangerous, and once the enemy army enters the battle, it will never be able to come out. ā
With the wave of the command flag, the Tang army's military formation underwent earth-shaking changes.
First of all, the front army, more than 40,000 people, quickly retreated to the two wings, not to confront the enemy head-on, and the rear army of 20,000 iron cavalry, which ran from the two wings at a rapid speed, and then rushed to the front army, intending to outflank the enemy who rushed out of the city; Looking at the Chinese army again, it is even more strange, as the soldiers moved a few times at will, a very mysterious formation appeared, from a distance, it was like a gossip map, in front of it, there was a door.
The whole process is like a smooth process, and it takes only a blink of an eye to take shape.
At this moment, five thousand people had just run out of the city, the city gate was closed, and the drawbridge was lifted.
Du Ran in the city looked stunned, he couldn't believe his eyes, he was stunned, the enemy formation should have changed, and the formation was said to be successful.
"Xu Maogong... It's really not to be underestimated... ā
Du Ran looked at a few generals beside him and said: "Have you seen it, his formation is called the Bagua Array, it is varied and powerful, it takes a long time for ordinary people to put it out, but he only waved the flag a few times, and the formation was formed, except for him, who else can do it?" ā
One of the lieutenants said, "That's... Isn't General Wu Qing dangerous? ā
"yes... I really regret sending troops. ā
Du Ran sighed, he personally sent the five thousand iron horsemen to a dead end. And Wu Qing, who is the general he trusts and relies on the most...
"Big brother, I didn't go."
Wu Qing blossomed at this time, and walked over from behind with a smile.
He has seen the situation outside the city, and he is very emotional now, very glad, fortunately he didn't rush out with a fever, otherwise his life would have been explained here.
If it was in normal times, Wu Qing dared to disobey the order, Du Ran would have been angry a long time ago, but now that Wu Qing has saved his life, he has released a fire.
"It's okay, it's good that I didn't go out..."
Du Ran brought Wu Qing's sin with a few words.
Obviously, he wasn't prepared to pursue it. Now is the time to employ people, if you want to investigate, can Wu Qing still live?
Wu Qing walked over and said, "Fortunately, we only went out with 5,000 people, and the loss is not big, even if we eat a trench and grow wise." In the future, I won't be on Xu Maogong's ghost. ā
While the two of them were remorseful, Xu Maogong under the city also looked stunned, he just found that there were not many enemy troops rushing out of the city, only a few thousand.
To deal with thousands of people, it is too big to use the Demon Bagua Array.
Originally, he thought that the enemy would definitely come out with 80,000 elite horsemen, but he finally underestimated Du Ran, Wu Qing... Er, no, it should be overestimated, in the absence of a formation, he even sent thousands of people out of the city to do a temptation, and he was really less daring than a mouse...
Xu Maogong was completely speechless, he was afraid that he was the most timid marshal he had ever seen.
"Why did you come out with such a few people...?"
Cheng Biting Jin said: "Stinky old way, it seems that you have misestimated again..." ā
Wei Chigong snorted: "Just such a few people, how can you still use any formation, I will immediately lead the troops to kill them." ā
If the formation was not set up at this time, Xu Maogong might have agreed, but now that the formation has been completed, his intentions have been exposed, even if he doesn't use the formation, Du Ran and Wu Qing will not be fooled.
Xu Maogong said: "No need, let them break through." ā
He couldn't help sighing, and re-examined Du Ran and Wu Qing in his heart, dealing with these two people, he felt that he couldn't think with normal thinking, and he should see the other party as a human being who was more rat than a mouse.
Da Da...
As he spoke, five thousand cavalry had already rushed over and entered through the gate of the Demon Bagua Array, and at the moment of entering, the gate was full of officers and soldiers, all the shield soldiers and pikemen, all turned their heads to defend against the enemy cavalry in the array.
Duan Jin led the soldiers into the Bagua Array, only to see that there were many roads in front of him, one after another, intersecting each other, he tried to ignore those roads, attacking the enemy soldiers who were lying in ambush on the left and right, but as soon as his soldiers approached, many spears were stabbed out, killing the people or war horses who approached, the means were ruthless, and the action was fast.
On the contrary, if he did not pay attention to the soldiers who were in ambush, the soldiers would not be in a hurry to attack.
After thinking about it, he continued to move forward with the cavalry, in the direction of the road.
Soon, he arrived at the position of the Chinese army, and at this time, the large array changed again, and the soldiers finally began to attack. The array was full of traps, and hook and sickle spears were everywhere, and the slightest poking out could cut off the horse's legs.
This was originally a formation against 80,000 cavalry, but now it is only against 5,000 people, which is really overkill...
