Chapter Ninety-Five: Hunger and Hunger, Hulu Meat (3)
The three improvised coalition forces of the Beigong Servant Army had a dispute before the battle, and the coalition soldiers were arrogant, and no one was willing to fight the vanguard, so they went to attack the Elite City first. This led to a fatal flaw in the coalition formation, where the three coalition forces were loose and unable to support each other in time.
Seeing that it was almost noon, the three of them ordered their respective soldiers to suspend their march and stop on the grassland fifteen miles from the east gate of the Elite City.
Yin Xu, the general of the South Road, and Wu Yuan, the general of the West Road, each brought two retinues to the tent of the Chinese army on the East Road to discuss the attack on the Jingjue City.
Yin Xu sat in the guest seat on his left hand and said to the two generals: "I have been ordered to go west to Wuyu Gorge to assemble, passing by the Exquisite City here. This exquisite city has been broken by our army, and it is no longer inhabited, but now I heard the report of the spies, and there are displaced people here to occupy the place to live, and it seems that there is also a righteous army composed of displaced people, what is the elite beggar army. According to the report of the scouts who came out of the outpost just now, they broke through one of our troops this morning and went to recover the Black Oil Mountain. After the three armies had lunch as soon as possible, they immediately set out, and we waited for the three armies to break through this city together, and rest here tonight for a whole night, and pass through the hinterland of the Taklamakan Desert, so that we could reach Micheng, 400 miles to the west, in a few days tomorrow, and then we could join the armies, and arrive one day early, so as not to miss the assembly date. ”
"Haha, General Yin is too worried, this group of displaced people is a rabble, and they are vulnerable, we can burn this broken city with a team of 1,000 people, haha. The commander of the East Road sat on the seat of the commander of the Chinese army, looked at the two colleagues in the tent, laughed, and disagreed.
"What General Xi said is that there is no need to worry about the displaced people here, and after I have lunch and rested for a while, I will send a team of 1,000 people to level this broken city. Wu Yuan, the general of the West Road, touched the wisp of white beard under his chin and said lightly.
Yin Xu looked at the two colleagues calmly, pondered for a while, and said: "Two generals, the current enemy situation is unknown, I think that we can first send a few scouts to find out the current situation of the military and civilians in the city and the deployment of the city, and then make a decision, I don't know what the two generals think?"
"Haha, General Yin is too cautious, the general thinks that there is no need to do more, after our army has lunch, I will wave the army to attack, and it will not take a moment to set foot on this broken city, haha, it's just ,...... This capture can only be shared by the generals and colonels of our army, haha, the two generals have no opinion. Rhino laughed, said in a loud voice, and said in a rough voice.
Yin Xu listened and was silent.
Wu Yuan laughed and said: "General Rhino cherishes his subordinate soldiers, this has nothing to say, come to think of it, there is no oil and water in this exquisite city, if you want to take it, you can take it, but, I heard that this exquisite city once had a beautiful queen, and she has not been captured, if, haha, if the general obtains it, can you let it to the next pro-Fang Ze, haha." ”
"Haha, it's easy to say, it's easy to say. The rhino stood up, laughed, looked at the two colleagues in the tent, and said, "I will wave my army forward today, and the soldiers will come to the city, how about it?"
"General Rhino, no! I thought that it was better to investigate the truth first, and then march into the army, so as to prevent the sneak attack of this army of wandering people, and then the gains outweighed the losses. ...... The two generals are also asked to think twice. ”
"Haha, no. Rhino stepped down from his position, stood in the tent, and looked up at the camp outside the tent, where the soldiers were orderly and full of morale.
Wu Yuan also stood up, looked outside the tent, and said: "We came from the coalition army, and the journey was smooth, and in the blink of an eye, we arrived at Wuyu Gorge, so why not be afraid of breaking the city and wandering people." Haha, in the next farewell, go back to your own camp for a little rest, march for half a day, also a little tired, in the afternoon have to hurry, I heard that the hinterland of the Taklamakan Desert is uninhabited within 400 miles, it is really difficult, haha, two generals, you talk first. He bowed to the two generals in the tent, turned and walked out of the tent.
When Yin Xu saw it, he frowned slightly, stood up, bowed to the rhino storm, and walked out of the big tent.
The commander of the East Road is a close general of Shi Hu, the commander of the East Road, and what this person is best at is the attack and combat of light troops, and the formation of a defensive formation while marching will suffocate this anxious son; Yin Xu, the general of the South Road, is a relatively good general, and at this time he and his son Yin Yan led his troops in the rear position on the left side of the left forward. The father and son are both battlefield masters who can be called generals, especially Yin Yan, who is good at managing the army and treating soldiers, and is very loved by the soldiers;
The three generals were not attached to each other, but Yin Yan was quite sensible, and suggested that the three armies be divided into the first three armies of the left and center, with Rhino as the front army and Wu Yuan as the middle army, and he would lead the left army by himself, and first send a team of 1,000 people to go out of the mountains to fight in order to explore the reality of the enemy's military formation. The rhino storm advocates the whole army, that is
Attack, concentrate all the way to attack the east gate of the Exquisite City. Based on his own estimates, Wu Yuan thought that as long as he grasped the main force of the Elite Elite Army, slowly advanced the troops in parallel, and formed a formation to defend himself, he could destroy it in one fell swoop, but this was wishful thinking, in fact, at present, he did not even know the specific location of the main force of the newly raised Elite Army, but only judged a general direction.
General Rhino was noncommittal about the division of the three armies.
Wu Kite then led the Chinese army and ordered to form a formation and move slowly.
Rhino Storm is known as the "fierce general" of the three armies in the servant army, has a good kung fu, and is not afraid of death. Now, this fierce general can't control his own ** to win, and he strides forward, and the distance between the Chinese army and the left army is too much, and there is a disconnect, leaving a gap of several miles in the middle.
Wu Yuan, the general of the Chinese army, saw that his army was tightly arrayed and that it was noon, so he ordered the three armies to bury the pot and make rice.
With regard to the understanding of the Beigong Servant Army, although Fan Xiang is not confident, he also has some experience. The constant real-time military information from the scout army has given him a certain understanding of the coordination, combat power and command ability of the leading generals under the hill. At this time, Fanxiang is like the book of war: "Know yourself and know your opponent, and you will not be defeated in a hundred battles." ”
At this time, the rhino rebel army was prominently exposed in front of the three armies, while the remaining two armies were several miles behind the flank of the rhino rebel army, leaving a large gap in the middle.
All of this is seen by the fragrance on the hill, and the real general is manifested in the strategizing. The two armies intersected, and the military aircraft was fleeting, and that was enough,-- huge gap between the enemy forces had become a sharp knife in his hand.
Fanxiang chose the moment when the army raised fire to make food, and the military order was to use the smoke of the enemy army as a signal.
The battle began, and Fanxiang commanded the army to slowly approach the Rhino Storm Army first, making it look like they were about to attack this advancing army.
The rhino rebel army is waiting for the battle, the flags are rolling, the war drums are rumbling, the swords and guns are like a forest, and they are extremely majestic.
At this time, if the elite beggar army really attacked the rhino rebel army first, it may not be able to take advantage, because the number of elite soldiers is small at this time, and the soldiers and weapons of the rhino rebel army are famous for their courage and excellence in the Beigong servant army.
Fan Xiang did not adopt this method of strong attack, he commanded Fan Kun to lead a thousand troops in front of the rhino riot army into a gun and shield array, clamoring and feintting, and when the attention of the rhino riot army was attracted by the elite army in front of him, he led the eight hundred clan as a surprise army, from the right flank of the battlefield to attack the Wu Yuan Zhong army.
The light cavalry slanted through the gap.
Caught off guard, the soldiers who were preparing to eat were run over by the elite team that blew like the wind, and when they came back to their senses and gathered to resist, the elite team had already swept through the Chinese army, leaving only a mess and a large number of soldiers who were injured or killed by arrows. Wu Kite urgently ordered the sergeants to beat the drums and encourage the sergeants to surround and annihilate the elite team, but the terrain around the Elite Oasis is really wide and flat, and the Chinese army generals are in a hurry, how can they stop this brave army that is like a wild rush?
When the left army turned around in the chaos and rushed to support, the elite team was long gone, leaving behind countless corpses and hoof prints.
Fan Xiang led this team out of the Chinese army, and saw that the left army was coming, and the formation was chaotic, so he swung his sword to the left, longitudinal Tu Mole Divine Horse, and penetrated the tail wing of Yin Xu's left army from the rear wing.
Yin Xu's left army went out to the middle army, was killed by Fan Xiang from the tail wing, and in a hurry even the most basic military formation could not be formed, and was quickly divided and defeated by the elite team, Fan Xiang led eight hundred warriors in Yin Xu's left army arrows like rain, rampage, such as entering a no-man's land, only to see that the mountains were full of soldiers of Yin Xu's left army who were fleeing, and there were countless people drowned in the Zidu River.
Wu Yuanzhong's army has just suffered a heavy blow, and at this time, seeing the tragic situation of Yin Xu's left army, on the hill in the distance, the enemy's flag covers the sun, and the drums shake the sky, as if there are thousands of troops and horses to kill, and the morale of Wu Yuanzhong's army has begun to waver.
Fan Xiang was surrounded by thousands of troops, and when he saw that the enemy's army was depressed, he shouted loudly and led 800 warriors to turn around and go straight to the big tent in the middle palace of the Wu Kite camp.
Wu Kite rode in front of the big tent, and was commanding the armies to fight, when he suddenly saw a young general riding a four-horned bull-headed beast, waving a knife in his hand, and hurriedly rushed straight to himself, hurriedly raised the spear in his hand, and shouted: "Who is coming?"
"Qinggang Mountain Fighter, Fanxiang is also!"
Fan Xiang shouted, and the prancing horse swung his sword forward, and went straight to the martial kite without hesitation.
Seeing the fierce and vicious situation, Wu Yuan didn't have time to think about it, so he raised the spear in his hand and came to meet it.
Fan Xiang's crotch under the earth mole god horse rushed very fast, in a blink of an eye, it was already in front of the Wu Kite horse, saw the Wu Kite with a spear, did not talk, jumped up, left the saddle, pounced on the Wu Kite, and the broken knife was drawn in the air
A faint blue cold light, the sword light passed, and Wu Kite was already separated. Fanxiang landed on the ground, grabbed a step, lifted the head of the martial kite from the ground, jumped on the earth, held the head of the martial kite, galloped in the camp of the Chinese army, and shouted loudly: "Those who descend live, and those who do not descend die!"
The left army and the rest of the Chinese army saw each other, and the morale of the army was lost, and they all hesitated.
Under the decline of the army's heart, the front army of the rhino storm turned back and saw that the Chinese army and the left army had collapsed, and on the vast grassland, there were routs all over the ground. The elite team of the left army and the Chinese army in the Beigong coalition army that had just been defeated had already penetrated directly into the flank of the former army of the rhino storm.
Under the combined attack of the front and back, the resistance of the front army of the rhino storm instantly turned into a rout, and the rhino storm was in the panic of the army, dancing the halberd in his hand, and he was about to fight.
Fan Xiang took the opportunity to wave the knife to take the rhino storm under the banner of the word "rhino", twenty-eight sharps clamored forward, several arrows came out, and the rhino storm was shot under the big sword, Yong Yisheng jumped off the horse, cut off the head of the rhino storm with a knife, and the horse was in the army, and raised the head of the rhino storm, showing it in front of the army.
When the soldiers of Beigong saw it, the army did not have any heart, and they all scattered and fled, and Fan Xiang saw it, waved his knife forward, and killed the rout. Chun Yuti waved the battle flag in his hand, followed closely behind Fan Xiang, and everywhere he passed, the army was wiped out.
Aisha blew the horn, the sound of "woo", the sharp howl on the battlefield, and constantly encouraged the elite soldiers to launch a pursuit, nearly two thousand elite teams, three, three, five, five, divided into a number of small teams of three or three, attacking from all sides, thousands of horses, and coercing thousands of people. In one fell swoop, more than 24,000 enemy soldiers were beheaded, the Beigong Third Route Coalition Army was annihilated, the East Road General Rhino Storm and the West Road General Wu Yuan were killed, the South Road General Yin Xu and his son Yin Yan, and more than 4,000 Beigong servants were captured by the Elite Beggars.
In this battle, the generals of the coalition army did not cooperate, the enemy was unknown, they all refused to join forces, and no one scrambled to fight the forward, after the soldiers came to the city, no one did anything, and abandoned the way of using troops with high speed and high soldiers. Van Xiang skillfully exploited this weakness, first luring the enemy's salient with a small force, and then storming its negligent Chinese army, after defeating the Chinese army, stirring the left army's formation, and finally flanking the prominent front army, thus winning the victory in one fell swoop.
In this battle, the elite righteous army won a complete victory.
When the army returned to the city in victory, they were welcomed by many people along the way, and Mei Lingfeng, the king of excellence, personally led the generals to the east gate to greet them.
The soldiers who participated in the war were promoted according to their merits, and in addition to the daily training of the army in the city, they sang and laughed day after day.
Although the scale of this battle was small, it was the first truly great victory in the other world, which shattered the myth of the invincibility of the Devil Army, lifted people's hearts, and at the same time gave hope to the people of this other world who were alone on the spiral arm of the galaxy. For a time, the currents of thought such as capitulationism, escapitism, and appeasementism, which were all in the limelight, gradually converged, and heroism, iron-bloodedness, and rebellion gradually began to become the mainstream of otherworldly thoughts.
From then on, the Beigong servant army regarded Fan Xiang and the "Elite Twenty-Eight Elites", "Thirteen Heroes in Red Clothes" and "Exquisite Broken Wall Army" led by Fan Xiang as evil gods, and no longer dared to despise this Western Regions rebel army, and Fan Xiang was greatly famous.
Since then, the reputation of the exquisite ancient city has spread far and wide, and some homeless people or small groups of rebels have come to visit it day by day. The number of citizens of the city gradually increased, and the military strength gradually increased.
The more than 4,000 captured enemy soldiers who were willing to join the rebel army were transferred to various battalions, and those who were unwilling to join the rebel army were given travel expenses and allowed to return home on their own. In addition to a very small number of hundreds of captives who were unwilling to join and just wanted to go home, the number of soldiers in the ranks of the Righteous Army increased by 3,600 soldiers, plus 1,000 soldiers of Fan Kun Surrender, so far, the total number of the Elite Righteous Army has increased to more than 10,000 brave soldiers, which was also a large military force in the entire Anti-Japanese War in the entire other world at that time.
Yin Xu and his son Yin Yan were impressed by Fanxiang's benevolence and outstanding commanding power, and they were also willing to join the Elite Beggar Army and become a rare commander of the Elite Righteous Army.
Afterwards, Fanxiang held a war summary meeting, and made a comprehensive analysis of the performance of these elite teams on the battlefield, pointed out the shortcomings and excellent performance of this battle, emphasized the importance of seizing fleeting fighters in the process of operation, and the strategy of improvising according to the development trend of the war, especially praised Mei Duoer for seizing the favorable fighter in this war and eliminating the rear military force of the enemy army in Heiyou Mountain, which laid a good foundation for the total annihilation of the enemy army in Heiyou Mountain in this campaign。
The proud smile on Mei Duoer's face naturally hung on her face for several days, so that every time she saw Fanxiang, she smiled, like a big child, without a proper shape.
