Chapter 493 is overwhelming
Hearing that Zhang Xun recognized the formation under Chang Yuchun, the generals breathed a sigh of relief, since Zhang Xun had released bold words, and everyone did not stop them, Zhang Xun took a thousand cavalry to kill Shangcai. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info
Zhang Xun didn't know the difference between the eight golden lock arrays in front of him, but when it was a shallow formation, he came to the outside of the city with the cavalry, looked in one direction and said: "The eight golden lock arrays, enter from the Shengmen, go out from the Jingmen, and all the soldiers will kill with me!"
Zhang Xun rushed into the Shengmen with a group of cavalry.
Chang Yuchun sneered: "This Zhang Xun is really just a rough understanding of this battle, the military division has changed the order of the eight gates, this Zhang Xun has entered the wrong door!"
Fang Xuanling said with a smile: "That's it, the general can command the soldiers to arrange a shield array to surround it, and force Hou Junji to send troops to rescue!"
"Good!" Chang Yuchun's face was full of joy, and he immediately waved the order flag and commanded the Han army in the array!
The soldiers in the Eight Gates Golden Lock Formation understood, immediately changed the formation, held shields one by one, divided Zhang Xun's cavalry, and surrounded the soldiers with shields. The Han army did not make a killing move, but only divided the siege, which made Zhang Xun exhausted.
Zhang Xun led the cavalry to rush left and right in the formation, about half an hour later, but could not find the location of the Jingmen, when he looked back, a thousand cavalry behind him had already been scattered, and there were only dozens of horsemen behind him.
At this time, Zhang Xun didn't know that he was trapped, and he couldn't help but sweat profusely, and immediately shouted to the city: "Quick, lead the troops to rush into battle and rescue me!"
The Yuan generals at the head of the city also felt bad, if ordinary people died, they would die, but Zhang Xun was a general, if he was not in the battle, how could they explain to Yuan Shu? A few people pondered it, and they also knew that Kaecheng rescued Zhang Xun.
The Han army went down at the south gate, and the east and west gates each rushed out with 5,000 Yuan soldiers and killed the golden lock formation at the eight gates of the south gate. At the head of the South Gate City, the remaining Yuan soldiers also shot arrows into the formation, hoping to put pressure on the Han army. However, the Han army in the Eight Gates Golden Lock Array was equipped with more shields, and the Yuan soldiers at the head of the city could not pose a threat to the Han army at all.
The east and west gates each killed 5,000 Yuan soldiers, and killed towards the Eight Gates Golden Lock Array, and the outermost soldiers held their shields outward, and the archers prepared in the rear continued to shoot arrows at the Yuan soldiers who rushed to disturb them.
In the camp of the Han army, Yang Yansi was already ready, and immediately took 30,000 soldiers and horses, except for the south gate, and surrounded Shangcai with 10,000 at each gate.
There were only 20,000 soldiers and horses in Shangcai City, and now 10,000 have come out, and Zhang Xun with a thousand cavalry is trapped in the Eight Gates Golden Lock Array, and the situation is critical for a while.
However, the Han army surrounded but did not kill, and the Yuan soldiers in the city had no choice but to light the wolf smoke at the head of the city and ask Hou Junji for help.
The wolf smoke is the most important distress signal, not ignited until the last resort, now the wolf smoke is lit, but after a while, the wolf smoke soars into the sky, and it can be seen from a distance of more than ten miles, and the fortress along the river is also immediately lit in response.
However, hundreds of miles along the Ru River, dozens of fortresses responded with wolf smoke, and the smoke rose into the sky.
Hou Junji was stationed in the middle of the fortress, and when he saw the wolf smoke rising, he immediately said angrily: "What's the matter, who lit the wolf smoke?"
"General, it is estimated that it was Shangcai's side, and it was ignited over there first!" The soldier replied.
Hou Junji said angrily: "This Zhang Xun is a big thing for me, I have written to him many times, and I have tried to persuade him to no avail, I am afraid that he fell for the Han army's strategy and lost the battle with the Han army."
At this time, the scouts of the Yuan army also quickly came to the place where Hou Jun gathered, and reported: "General, the general was in the formation of the Han army, and the 10,000 troops in Shangcai City went out of the city to rescue to no avail, but let the main force of the Han army surround Shangcai.
Hou Junji scolded: "Bastard, I set up a fortress along the river, that is, I want to defend mainly and resist the Han army. I have already asked Zhang Xun not to fight, he is trapped by the Han army without knowing the height of the sky, doesn't the Han army just want to force me to fight? I don't care about him, let him fend for himself! Put out the wolf smoke! ”
Hou Junji was also a ruthless man, and he actually decided to ignore Zhang Xun and sit back and watch him be besieged by the Han army. Even to extinguish the wolf smoke, you must know that the soldiers and horses converge. But this wolf smoke is an order, a little wolf smoke, the soldiers and horses will naturally gather, even if the wolf smoke is extinguished, it will not help.
"General, Zhang Xun is a general, if we don't save him, we won't survive! What's more, if the wolf smoke is a little, the soldiers and horses will naturally converge, even if the wolf smoke is extinguished, it will not help, it is better to gather to rescue the general. The adjutant general persuaded from the side.
"It's the only way to go, you guys are ready, gather soldiers and horses to prepare to rescue Shang Cai!" Hou Junji weighed it and ordered.
Everyone left, Hou Junji muttered: "This time the troops will be defeated, once the defense along the river is lost, it will be difficult to resist the Han army, when the main force is dragged by the Han army, Zhao Kuangyin and Sun Jian will send troops on both roads, and the destruction is probably not far away, I have to prepare early!" I'm afraid this Yuan Shu's subordinates won't be able to stay longer. ”
After thinking for a moment, Hou Junji shook his head and said, "I need to save Zhang Xun first, so as not to end up disregarding the reputation of the lord general defecting, and the other princes will not tolerate me!"
The fortress that Hou Jun gathered, the five hundred soldiers in the fort were assembled, and the rear fortress, a group of soldiers and horses also gathered here. Like a long dragon, it goes up the river.
And Yang Zaixing and Gan Ning, who had already been ambushed, saw the beacon fire together, and prepared to lead the cavalry to kill. As soon as the two of them combined, Yang Zaixing said: "When the soldiers and horses in the fortress of the Yuan army are dispatched, they will form a long dragon formation, and our army will outflank them from the rear, or they can kill them from the middle." It is better for you and me to lead 1,500 men and horses each, and I will kill them from the middle, and you will outflank them from the back, so that you can create more chaos. ”
When Gan Ning heard this, he felt reasonable, nodded and agreed, so Gan Ning took 1,500 cavalry to outflank him from the rear, but Yang Zaixing directly fought against Yuan's army and killed him.
The cavalry rode up and galloped, but in an hour, Yang Zaixing led the cavalry to the river, but saw a long dragon marching by the river to Shangcai, and the front and rear were Yuan troops, Yang Zaixing immediately led the cavalry to kill.
How did this formation of the Yuan army make the opponent of the Han army? Even if they couldn't meet the enemy in array, they were immediately killed and scattered by the cavalry, and they couldn't care about each other. At the same time, Gan Ning also successfully outflanked the rear of Yuan's army and led the cavalry all the way north to kill.
"It's not good, I know that the Han army is not so simple, when did the cavalry come around!" Hou Junji was rushing to Shang Cai in front, but there was a sound of fighting in the rear, and Hou Junji immediately knew that it was the Han army outflanked by the cavalry.
The soldiers and horses around Hou Junji were very panicked, and Hou Junji thought for a moment and said: "I'm afraid that we will all leave our lives here to save Zhang Xun, let's go north to Pingyu, and then go south to Xincai, where to intercept the Han army!"
Now these people didn't dare to propose to save Zhang Xun, and hurriedly followed Hou Junji's order to flee north to Pingyu.
Hou Junji fled north with the remaining more than 10,000 soldiers and horses, while Yang Zaixing and Gan Ning led the cavalry along the Ru River, and the corpses of Yuan's army were densely scattered along the river, and the blood flowed into the Ru River, dyeing the river bright red.
Gan Ning and Yang Zaixing's cavalry converged, and Gan Ning said: "General Yang, the cavalry came to report to Hou Junji and led the soldiers and horses to flee north, should we go to pursue Hou Junji, or go to Shangcai to meet General Chang's main force?"
"We waited for 3,000 cavalry to pursue Yuan's army of 30,000, and we were able to defeat it tenfold because Yuan's army was loose. Now that Hou Junji has fled north, he must gather his troops and prepare to lay an ambush for our army, anyway, the fortresses along the Ru River have lost their effectiveness, and our army no longer has to pursue. Yang Zaixing thought for a moment.
Gan Ning shook his head and said: "The Yuan army fled north in a hurry, where can we still take care of ambushing our army, isn't our army going to defeat the Yuan army and attract its main force to resist Runan?" Now it's time to expand the results of the battle, why don't you and I divide our troops and advance, you go to meet General Chang, and I will take the cavalry to pursue Yuan's army? ”
"It's fine, but you have to be cautious!" Yang Zaixing admonished.
Gan Ning nodded and said, "General Yang, don't worry, even if I can't pursue it, I will return safely with the cavalry!"
"Be careful all the way!" Yang Zaixing arched his hand on his horse, and then led more than a thousand cavalry to Shang Cai. And Gan Ning pursued Hou Junji with the rest of the soldiers and horses.
Under Shangcai City, Zhang Xun was trapped in the Eight Gates Golden Lock Array, and another 10,000 Yuan soldiers were also surrounded by the Han army and could not get out.
Chang Yuchun and Fang Xuanling looked east, and saw from a distance that Hou Junji led the Yuan soldiers who were killed and scattered by the cavalry to flee north. Chang Yuchun said with a smile: "General Yang Zaixing can succeed, the fortress of Yuan's army along the river is down, and our army can also take advantage of the situation to take Shangcai Ke."
When he often met the spring, he wanted to wave the order flag and let the soldiers and horses kill Zhang Xun who was besieged.
Fang Xuanling hurriedly grabbed Chang Yuchun and said, "Why did the general kill this person?"
"What? This Zhang Xun is the general of Yuan Thief, if I kill him, I will definitely be able to deal a blow to Yuan Jun! Chang Yuchun wondered.
Fang Xuanling said with a smile: "This Zhang Xun is just an incompetent person, the general thinks that killing him is of great effect, or keep him and let him command the army of the country, which is ingenious?"
Chang Yuchun's eyes lit up when he heard this: "What the military advisor said is right, killing him is just like that, if I keep him and let him escape back to Shouchun, Yuan Shu will not kill him." If he is allowed to escape and continue to command the army of Chengguo, it will be of great benefit to attack Yuan Shu! Whether Zhang Xun is here to defend Runan or to defend against Zhao Kuangyin and Sun Jian, it will be vulnerable! ”
Chang Yuchun understood that he let go of Zhang Xun's high place, and immediately waved the order flag, and a passage appeared in the formation.
And Chang Yuchun commanded the Han army to fight against the Yuan army under the city, the Han army was overwhelming, where was the Yuan army the opponent? When it was dark, the Han army exterminated the Yuan army under the city, Shangcai was besieged, Hou Junji in the city, Zhang Xun did not come to the rescue, and the Yuan army in the city surrendered to the Han army.
