Just when Tian Jing and Xu Huang led their troops to rush and kill, Li Kang led the cavalry to gather behind Hu Feng's camp. Pen | fun | pavilion www. ο½ο½ο½ο½ο½ο½ γ ο½ο½ο½ο½
Originally, he wanted to take advantage of the chaos to attack Hu Feng's camp and set fire to it, if Hu Feng's army withdrew, the Han army could have a defense and turn into a counteroffensive, and this battle would be considered a victory. But Li dared to say nothing and didn't expect that Hu Feng had left 6,000 men and horses in the camp, and the camp was neat, the defense was tight, and the camp was surrounded by dense antler fences.
Listening to the shouting and killing in the distance, there is no need to ask Tian Jing and Xu Huang that side is already very urgent. In a hurry, Li Dang decided to take the cavalry straight to Hu Feng's main force to share the pressure on Tian Jing and Xu Huang.
Li Kang's cavalry suddenly rushed out from the north, and when Hu Feng's soldiers and horses were caught off guard, they suffered some losses. But after all, Hu Feng had a large number of men and horses, and he was well-trained, so he immediately formed a spear formation and blocked the impact of Li Kang's cavalry.
Not only that, Hu Feng already had a backhand, just when Li Kang's cavalry was launched, there were already 2,000 Liangzhou cavalry in Hu Feng's camp on standby, just waiting for the Han cavalry to move, this cavalry immediately launched.
When Li Dang was worried about not being able to rush into Hu Feng's big array, he found that two thousand cavalry were rushing behind him. As a last resort, he could only let the soldiers and horses behind him retreat, get rid of the entanglement of the infantry as soon as possible, and go all out to deal with this cavalry.
Tian Jing's side with three hundred people who dared to die finally joined forces with Xu Huang's soldiers and horses, but it was easy to kill them just now, but now it is difficult to kill them with Xu Huang's soldiers and horses and retreat to the city.
Tian Jingxin said, could it be that we will die in battle under this Pusaka City today. I thought that Hu Feng would not bring a large army to come, and even if he came, he would attack tentatively first, and he could turn Xu Huang into horns with each other, fight a few victories, and rub Hu Feng's sharpness. How do you know that this Hu Feng's use of troops is really unusual, he marched for several days in a row, and did not correct it after setting up camp, and directly launched a general attack.
Tian Jing regrets it in his heart now, to be honest, he is too big. Whether you can get out of trouble this time depends on Zang Shun, you have no hole cards, if Zang Shun this card comes out, victory or defeat can be resigned to fate.
Zang Shun is now more anxious than Tian Jing, the original plan was to let Liu Meng and Mao An's reserve army go to the city to defend, he and Li Meng, Wang Fang, Zhang Bao led the four schools of the Northern Army to take advantage of the enemy's exhaustion to kill from the east gate, and concentrated troops and horses to quickly break the enemy.
But now Li Meng and Wang Fang refused to send troops. The reason for the refusal is very simple, that is, when the plan was made before, I didn't expect Hu Feng to have so many men and horses, if he rashly sent troops now, once the enemy attacked the city, Pusaka lost, then the annihilation of the whole army was small, but the loss of the southern gateway, so that the saint was in danger is a big deal. So the two refused to send troops. Infantry Captain Zhang Bao remained neutral and did not express his opinion.
Zang Shun was so angry, and said in his heart that these guys would not be saved one by one, and they would not be able to cut them with a thousand knives, but there was no way. Although when Tian Jing went out of the city, he let himself control the soldiers and horses of the other three schools, but the official titles of those three people were higher than himself, and their soldiers and horses were all his own subordinates, so there was no way for the three of them to obey the order.
In a hurry, Zang Shun was ready to lead the remaining soldiers and horses of the Hu Cavalry Captain battalion out of the city desperately. But as soon as I calmed down, I found that going out like this was simply sending me to death.
When I was anxious, I heard that Miss Lu Wen was here. Zang Shun knew the relationship between Lu Wen and Tian Jing, and he didn't dare to slack off. Lu Wen was not polite when she came in, and went straight to the road, "Your general is trapped, and I have a plan to retreat from the enemy." β
Zang Shun was overjoyed when he heard this, "I don't want my sister-in-law to have a clever plan, but I don't know how to break the enemy?" β
Lu Wen glanced at him, "Flim tongue, who is your sister-in-law." In the past, the Tiandan Fire Ox Formation broke the Yan Army, and I took Lord Zhao Yan to preside over the affairs of Tuntian, and there were still dozens of ploughing cattle in the camp. Originally, I thought that ploughing cattle was not easy to come by, and it was the lifeblood of Lord Zhao Yan, but now in order to save your family, the general can't take care of it so much. And I ordered a sharp blade to be tied to the head of the ox, and the tail of the ox was soaked in oil. Now, as long as the general's army is reborn behind the fire bull array, he will be able to break the siege of Hu Feng. β
Zang Shun was overjoyed when he heard this, and said in his heart that this sister-in-law is really unusual, she actually knows the art of war and comes up with such a clever plan. Quickly kowtow and thank you, and went to prepare after leading the soldiers and horses of the headquarters.
Lu Wen stopped him, "General Liu Meng, now he is relieved of the post of county lieutenant, this person is brave, and there are many people who dare to die under his command, who can help the general." β
Zang Shun responded with a "good", and then led the soldiers and horses to merge with Liu Meng, and counted exactly 800 people. Zang Shun gave an order, opened the city gate, and set all the tails of those ploughing cattle on fire.
The ploughing ox was frightened and rushed out like crazy. If it is one or two, it is nothing, but dozens of ploughing cattle rush out together, although it is not as good as thousands of troops, but it is just as impressive.
Zang Shun and Liu Meng led 800 men and horses to follow closely after the ploughing oxen, and rushed into the enemy formation together, slashing and killing.
Where did Hu Feng arrange the besieging soldiers and horses to think that there would be mad cows on fire in the city, these cattle are more terrifying than lions and tigers, whether they hit the tip of the knife, or were twisted on the head, or trampled by the bull, they were either the result of death or injury. Almost instinctively, these soldiers dodged the way, and the formation was thrown into chaos. While they were still glad that they were not injured by the ox, the Han army's swords and guns had already been added to their necks.
Tian Jing and Xu Huang were also taken aback when they saw the fire ox rushing out, but they immediately reacted and must seize this opportunity to break through the enemy army and retreat to the city. The soldiers and horses under their command immediately mustered up their morale and fought hard.
At this moment, I suddenly saw smoke and dust billowing from the south, as if a large group of people were coming, but I didn't know who it was. Nearly ten miles away, the men and horses on both sides could see the newly arrived soldiers and horses waving the banner of "Zhang". You don't need to ask to know that it was Zhang Ji who led the troops to help.
Hu Feng was also stunned when he saw Zhang Ji's soldiers and horses, he didn't believe that Tian Jing could say that he had moved Zhang Ji's soldiers and horses to help. Because Zhang Ji is a member of the Liangzhou family after all, although he is not in harmony with Li Dao, but at this critical moment of life and death of the Liangzhou army, he does not believe that Zhang Ji will support outsiders. The biggest possibility is that Zhang Jilai came to wait and see.
But Hu Feng was wrong, Zhang Ji not only had no intention of waiting and seeing, but also did not answer and directly led troops to attack his own troops.
Zhang Ji led 3,000 cavalry this time and directly attacked his own Chinese army. And it seems that there are infantry behind, which should be no less than five thousand. Hu Feng thought that 8,000 people came from Hongnong, and he didn't know what benefits Tian Jing gave to Zhang Ji, the old guy, to make him work so hard.
But thinking about these uselessness now, the key is how to block Zhang Ji's attack. Just now, the Fire Bull Array had broken through its besieging troops, and the combined attack of Tian Jing and Xu Huang had just opened a hole in their own Chinese army. Now coupled with the impact of Zhang Ji's cavalry, Hu Feng's soldiers and horses can't support it no matter how strong they are.
He asked the herald to raise the banner and let his cavalry rush up to support, who knew that his 2,000 cavalry was entangled by the Han army's 500 reserve white horse Yicong and couldn't get out of it at all.
Hu Feng looked at the situation, said a word, and immediately ordered the Chinese army to be the rear army of the palace, and the soldiers and horses covering the siege began to retreat.
But the offense is easy to maintain a formation, but the retreat is not good, and somewhere someone began to run away first, which immediately triggered a tide of escape. Tian Jing and Xu Huang didn't retreat to the city at first glance, and immediately took their headquarters to kill again.
The fire ox just now was already exhausted, or killed, or fell to the ground, but Zang Shun and Liu Meng's soldiers and horses became more and more courageous, and joined forces with Tian Jing and Xu Huang to kill the enemy.
Hu Feng originally hoped that the Chinese army would be able to stabilize the formation and retreat, but now he couldn't see that it was going to work, so he had no choice but to abandon the brigade and lead a thousand personal soldiers to quickly evacuate to his own camp. And the cavalry that had just fought with Li Kang's troops also began to join the retreat.
Tian Jing and Zhang Ji's soldiers and horses rushed to kill, wanting to annihilate Hu Feng's men and horses in one fell swoop. Unexpectedly, there were still 3,000 men and horses in Hu Feng's camp who had prepared in advance, and set up a tight defense, bows and arrows, and antlers and thistles to block the team. Moreover, after the enemy withdrew to the main camp, the men and horses began to slowly regroup.
Tian Jing and Zhang Ji decided to accept it as soon as they saw it, and led the troops back to Puban City. The 8,000 soldiers and horses led by Zhang Ji were stationed outside the city.
In this battle, 3,000 enemies were killed and 1,000 prisoners, and the remaining soldiers and horses of the enemy army retreated to the camp. His own losses were also quite heavy, especially the soldiers and horses led by Xu Huang were killed more than 1,500 people, the Hu cavalry lieutenant battalion led by Tian Jing was killed 200 people, and the reserve Baima Yicong was killed and wounded 46 people. On the contrary, Zang Shun and Liu Meng's troops suffered the least casualties.
Tian Jing patted Zang Shun on the shoulder, "That's right, I actually came up with the fire bull plan, the real man should be impressed in three days, but I didn't expect that you gave me such a big surprise in just half a day." β
Zang Shun smiled, "Back to the general's words, this is really not the credit of the younger brother, the strategy is what the sister-in-law thinks." β
Tian Jing was stunned for a moment, and then reacted and said that it was Lu Wen, and said that I, my fiancΓ©e, always gave me a lot of surprises.
After the affairs in the camp were dealt with, Tian Jing hurried to meet Zhang Ji. When he arrived at the county hall (the temporary general's tent), Tian Jing kowtowed to Zhang Ji as soon as he came in. One is that Zhang Ji is Zhang Xiu's uncle, which is equivalent to his own master's generation, which should be at this time; Another thing, after Zhang Ji received his letter, he spent less than three days crossing hundreds of miles of starry nights across the Yellow River Fengling to support him, and also retired Hu Feng's soldiers and horses, if it wasn't for the old man to give himself face, who would treat himself like this.
Zhang Ji was very happy to see Tian Jing saluting. "Get up, doll, you are good, you returned the white wave thief, and also gave Li Dao a golden cicada to come out of the shell, and saved the emperor doll from the shell. I really didn't misread you, and your achievements are limitless in the future. β
Tian Jing hurriedly clenched his fists, "The old marquis said to be funny, how can my little trick get into your eyes." Besides, if it weren't for your soldiers to save me, I'm afraid that my thousands of soldiers and horses would have been confessed here today. But we are a family, and I will be rewarded for my great kindness, and I will have a good reward for my nephews in the future. β
Zhang Ji pulled Tian Jing up, "What kind of reward is not good or not, I have said that it is my own person, hurry up." I'll take a good look at you. After Zhang Ji praised him a few times, he said, "Yes, in addition to the mighty and alert of that day, it seems that there is more majesty and bearing of a superior person." Good, you have a lot of potential. In the future, it will be a tiger general of my big man. By the way, my grandson is in the city. β
Tian Jing heard Zhang Ji ask Zhang Quan, and hurriedly said, "Brother Quan is now guarding the saint in Anyi City." If the old marquis doesn't like the work of boats and cars, he can rush to Anyi tomorrow to meet the emperor, and by the way, he will see the spring. β
Zhang Ji smiled, "I want to go, but I'm afraid that Hu Feng won't agree." β
Tian Jing said with a smile, if my guess is correct, Hu Feng has already pulled out the camp and withdrawn his troops.
