Chapter 206: Ten Miles of Official Road Blocking Officers and Soldiers (2)
Thundered!!!
The five soldiers shrank in a heap and raised their shields at the same time, at this time two boulders fell down, hitting the center of the shield, and in an instant, the five soldiers could not withstand the huge force, and they were all smashed and vomited blood on the spot, and finally fell to the ground and died.
Not even the shieldmen could withstand the power of the boulders, let alone the pikemen.
For a time, Wu Haotian's fifteen-thousand-strong army suffered heavy casualties, dead bodies were everywhere, and they also wanted to retreat, but the order could not be issued at all, so they could only stay in place and be beaten passively.
Qiancang walked through the mountain trench and shouted: "Don't use grenades, attack with boulders, bows and arrows." ”
The captain who entered the official road first had already led the 5,000 troops out of the Mingshan official road, and he also heard the sound of war drums behind him, but he didn't come back to help, because he knew that there was only death when he came back, and he didn't understand why the enemy didn't ambush him, and the secret road might be lucky.
10,000 ambushes 15,000!
Except for 2,000 of the 10,000 people in Qiancang, the rest of the 8,000 people are attacking with falling stones.
The battle had only been going on for half an hour, and Wu Haotian's 15,000 army was completely annihilated! There was no one left, even Wu Haotian himself was smashed by the boulder, he didn't want to believe that this was the truth until he died, the great general of the dignified empire fell like this, sad! Alas!
The soldiers of Qiancang did not suffer a single casualty, this is the benefit of the ambush, only the loss of some boulders and bows and arrows, the battle is over, Qiancang immediately called two captains, and said: "There are not many boulders left, immediately mine them in situ, or go to the spacious place in front to cut down trees, and prepare for the next big battle." ”
The two lieutenants had a smile on their faces, and one said, "General." We have 10,000 ambush soldiers here, do the officers and soldiers dare to pass here? ”
Qiancang frowned, this captain asked very well, the enemy had just been wiped out of fifteen thousand people. Then it will be impossible to pass down the mountain again, and if you want to cross this Mingshan official road, you can only go up the mountain first to eliminate the ambush soldiers.
The path on the edge of Languan was the only way up the mountain, so the main focus of the defense was there.
"Move all the rolling stones and logs to the front as quickly as possible, and I expect that tomorrow the enemy will surely ascend the mountain from there. We need to prepare in advance. ”
The two lieutenants bowed their hands: "No." ”
The news that Wu Haotian's former army was wiped out by the enemy's ambush reached Yu Yuan half an hour later, and it was already evening at this time, he personally led the troops to the scene, looked at the geographical environment, and finally led people to retreat to the east of Languan, and camped outside Languan City.
"General Wu has read a lot of military books, but he doesn't seek to understand, and he will fall for the enemy's ambush plan, stupid!"
The second general under Yu Yuan is called Hu Yuan, and his intelligence is mediocre. Some of them were brute force and were used by Yu Yuan as a vanguard. Hu Yuan said: "General, what should we do next?" ”
Yu Yuan said: "If you want to pass through the official road of Mingshan, you must first destroy the enemy army on the mountain, this general just saw that there is only one path that can go straight up, so tomorrow, all departments will work together to attack the mountain!" ”
..................
Wang Xu came with an army of 30,000 and met an army of 5,000 on the way. Without the slightest hesitation, Wang Xu immediately asked Li Zhi to lead the army to meet the battle, 20,000 PK 5,000, and won. But the casualties were not small, and after counting, there were 3,000 dead, which made it difficult for everyone to accept.
The disparity in strength was so huge, and there were nearly 5,000 archers to cover it, and it turned out that so many people died. From this point, it can be seen that the elite of the imperial court is really terrifying, especially in this field battle, they cooperate with each other quite tacitly, and the commander is like waving his arms.
Regarding the sudden appearance of this group of officers and soldiers, everyone made an analysis, and it must have been deliberately let go by Qiancang, because the number of soldiers was very small, and Qiancang definitely didn't want to expose himself early, which showed that the official road was still in the hands of his own side, which made Wang Xu really relieved.
As long as the imperial army can be blocked here, everything will be easy, and now it is time to fight.
In the evening of the same day, Wang Xu led his troops to camp at the other end of the official road in Mingshan, and the camp of 27,000 soldiers covered an area of more than ten miles, divided into five battalions: front, rear, left, right, and middle, and the defense was very strict.
Zhang Xue and Liao Yun are safe and sound, it is really fortunate that Wang Xu has just set up a banquet for Liao Yun in the big tent of the Chinese army, Liao Yun has repeatedly asked for guilt, Wang Xu just smiled, did not add guilt to him, but rewarded Liao Yun with a thousand taels of silver.
Now there are only Zhang Xue and Wang Xu in the big tent, they haven't been alone together for a long time, Wang Xu is a little excited in his heart, especially Zhang Xue's bulging belly, which makes Wang Xu feel a sense of responsibility, this is his own child, the crystallization of a modern man and a person from another world, which not only spans time, but also spans space, which is amazing.
Zhang Xue leaned on Wang Xu's chest, and fell asleep after a while, she was so tired, she hadn't really fallen asleep in the past few months, she was very afraid, afraid that she would never wake up after falling asleep, leaning on her husband's body at the moment, she felt that there was no time to be safer than now.
Gently putting his hand on her stomach, Wang Xu suddenly felt the faint little life, as if it was moving, everything was like a dream.
Wang Xu is now seventeen years old, if he is considered a virtual age, he should be eighteen, which is not yet the age of marriage in modern times, but here, there are children of some big families, and the children of other families are two years old.
Zhang Meng suddenly opened the tent, Wang Xu waved his hand to signal him not to make a sound, and then walked out after putting Zhang Xue on the bed.
Coming to the outside of the tent, Zhang Meng said: "Lord, Qin Shuang sent someone to come and say that they were already starting to build ships, but those three water thieves were too powerful for them to exterminate, and they also lost 5,000 soldiers, Qin Shuang pleaded guilty." ”
How can three water thieves be that powerful? Qin has an army of 20,000 on his hands! Wang Xu frowned, if the water thieves were really that powerful, then they would have to find a way to subdue them, which would be of great benefit to the future raid on Hexi County.
"Well, you go and tell the person who came, just let Qin Shuang find a way to subdue this group of water thieves, and let him think for himself, no matter what conditions those three water thieves propose, I will agree."
Wang Xu said: "Go ahead, but the shipbuilding matter should no longer be known to others, this is the top secret of our army now!" ”
"No." Zhang Meng answered, and then left, and Wang Xu walked into the camp.
.............
Early the next morning.
Yu Yuan gathered 20,000 troops and came to the west gate of Languan, there is a path that can only be passed by two people to go up the mountain, today his task is to rush to the top of the mountain, eliminate the thieves on the mountain, it is easy to say, but Yu Yuan knows very well in his heart that this is not a simple matter, if it is not done well, the 20,000 troops will not be able to rush up, because the mountain is too steep.
At this time, the sentry arranged by Qiancang in the middle of the mountain had already discovered Yu Yuan, and he immediately reported the enemy situation to Qiancang, Qiancang arrived with several captains, looked at the bottom of the mountain, the corners of Qiancang's mouth were slightly upturned, he was full of confidence, if he was so condescending and let the enemy rush up, then there would be no need to mix it up in the future.
"Tell the brethren to get the Rolling Stones and the Giant Wood ready, and we'll give them some great tasting today."
Qiancang immediately let the soldiers behind him go down the mountain, and halfway up the mountain he also stored a large number of rolling stones, which were his first line of defense.
After a while, the officers and soldiers really began to attack the mountain, two groups of soldiers, 500 people, they had just climbed to the position of 200 steps, and a large number of boulders rolled down the mountain, and suddenly, all the 500 people were shattered, some of them were smashed and their heads were bleeding, and some fell directly off the cliff. The scene was chaotic.
After a while, the second team made up for it, and the effect was still the same, dead and wounded.
Yu Yuan rarely faces such a predicament, he rushed to all kinds of helplessness, if he continued like this, how many people would have to die if he rushed up.
What annoys him the most is to fight this kind of offensive and defensive battle, watching the soldiers die in front of him one by one, which general is not distressed. If it was a field battle, these soldiers would be able to take one as ten, and it would be a pity to die here.
Thundered...
The rocks rolled down the path, and one of the stones flew to Yu Yuan's feet, smashing a two-foot deep pit in front of him.
Yu Yuan was furious, and immediately said, "Collect the troops and go back to the camp to find another way." ”
In just a few moments, thousands of officers and men were killed and wounded, which were greater than the casualties of the siege battle, and there was no hope of going up the mountain.
On the mountain, the soldiers cheered loudly, and they repelled the officers and soldiers again, and there were zero casualties!
Qiancang smiled: "Just fight like this, prepare more rolling stones and giant trees, and see how they go up the mountain." (To be continued.) )
