Chapter 191: Opportunity After the Earthquake

(a)

The earth shook a few more times, and finally quieted down.

He jumped after the most slight, and suddenly knelt on the ground on all fours, snorting constantly, and opening his mouth wide to let out air.

Wei Changfeng took several breaths before the dizziness disappeared. He looked up hurriedly, only to see that in front, a wide three zhang away, long and endless, large crack stretched out, only in front of the Han army's position there was a section of about two miles of ground that was not broken, the front and back of the Han army's position, everywhere were gravel and bulging dirt bags, countless Han troops were staggering, and there were few people who could stand.

Wei Changfeng shouted repeatedly: "General Fang, General Fang!" ”

shouted twice, but he heard someone behind him answer, he hurriedly turned around to look, and saw Fang Zhenhai standing up from the ground staggeringly, his whole body covered in dirt, bleeding from his forehead, and he was embarrassed.

Wei Changfeng hurriedly rode over, and saw that although Fang Zhenhai had a few scratches on his body, he was not seriously injured, and he was very lucky in his heart.

Fang Zhenhai looked around, and saw that his horse was actually intact, and he was also deeply glad to himself, he turned over on his horse and said to Wei Changfeng: "You left and I right, quickly inspect the troops!" ”

Wei Changfeng said yes and went to the left. Along the way, I saw that the soldiers of the Han army were standing up one after another, all of them seemed to be native soldiers from the underworld, all covered in dust.

Wei Changfeng kept looking up into the distance while patrolling, fortunately, it seemed that the Huns had also been affected by the earthquake, and it was difficult to launch an attack for a while. It's just that they are not in the center of the earthquake, this kind of shaking has a relatively small impact on them, and the cavalry troops do not need to slowly line up like infantry, so the Huns should recover faster than the Han army.

Seeing that the soldiers everywhere were already returning to the team, Wei Changfeng felt a little at ease, and was about to turn back, but saw a general running over on a crooked horse, Wei Changfeng frowned, stepped forward, and asked loudly before he got close: "General Zheng, what are you doing here?" ”

Although Wei Changfeng didn't see this person's face clearly, among the generals of the entire Han army, only Zheng Liu could do it if he could ride so badly.

The general was indeed Zheng Liu, and when he saw that Wei Changfeng was fine, he replied: "It's okay, I'll take a look at what happened." ”

Wei Changfeng is angry and funny, now this is the battlefield, where did your curiosity come from?

"You just need to know how your troops are doing!" Wei Changfeng reprimanded angrily, "What about your troops? Where's your god locomotive? How's it going? ”

"It's all wrong!" Zheng Liu replied with some pride, "We only suffered a little shock over there!" ”

"So, return to the team immediately!" Wei Changfeng shouted, "Leaving your post without permission on the battlefield is the crime of killing your head!" ”

Zheng Liu was taken aback, and then realized that Lu Dao couldn't be casually kind on the battlefield, so he had to turn the horse's head and return.

When Wei Changfeng saw Zheng Liu returning, he also turned around and ran towards the Chinese army. When he arrived at the Chinese army, he saw that Fang Zhenhai also came to the Chinese army with a gray face, and the two met and quickly exchanged information.

It seems that although there are losses this time, the losses are not big, the casualties are about 3,000 people, as far as the 100,000 Han army is concerned, it is not a serious casualty, which is also fortunate to be in the field, and the ground is grass, there are not many boulders and the like, otherwise the casualties of the Han army are only afraid of more than these.

It's just that now the location of the Han army is full of rubble and mounds, and it is impossible to arrange a strict array, especially those defeated soldiers are passing by next to the Han army's large array but suddenly suffered an earthquake, and they are even more panicked by this earthquake, and many defeated soldiers rushed directly to the Han army, and now it is a mess, and it will be difficult to sort out for a while.

"I only hope that the Huns will ......" Fang Zhenhai said worriedly, and before the words came out, the guards next to him screamed in surprise, pointing straight ahead with his hand.

Fang Zhenhai and Wei Changfeng looked forward at the same time, and their faces changed.

Directly ahead, the smoke and dust rose, the Hun army had begun to move forward, on the left, the flag waved, the horse team loomed, and another Hun army of about 50,000 people appeared!

It seems that this time the Hun army went out of the army with a considerable amount of strength, and the troops were divided into two routes, one way defeated the Han army in the middle and then chased straight behind, and the other road was sideways bypass, intending to completely surround the Han army's middle route army, and the strategic arrangement of the Huns was the same as Zhu Ling: the two armies were divided into joint attacks. But for what is the division of the combined attack actually hit thousands of miles in one blow, but I really don't know the way, but it is certain that the Huns implemented the strategy stronger than the Han army, although they failed to surround all the Han army's middle route army, but the Han army's middle route army of 200,000 people only 50,000 remained, which is enough for the Huns to be proud of. If it hadn't been for Fang Zhenhai's department appearing in time, this encirclement would have been successful.

Wei Changfeng looked at the Hun army nervously, and suddenly turned his head to Fang Zhenhai and said, "General Fang, for today's plan, we can't fight hard." ”

"We can't withdraw." Fang Zhenhai replied, "If you want to withdraw now, it will definitely be another rout." ”

"It's not a retreat, it's an attack!" Wei Changfeng's tone showed rare excitement, "General Fang, how about we defeat these 150,000 Huns in one fell swoop?" ”

(2) The two armies of the Xiongnu army were united.

They planned to drive these Han troops all the way to the east, to the Donghu territory directly besieged and killed, one can reduce the resistance of the Han army, so that these Han troops run to exhaustion and then kill, the other is directly prestigious, and then ascend to the heights, the entire Donghu rose up and corresponded, but they did not expect the Han army to react very quickly, and the courage was really big, and they actually attacked directly, which was very different from the Han army they originally expected that the Han army would strictly defend the city, and as a result, 50,000 Han troops escaped from under their hands.

The earthquake just now shocked them, but fortunately, they were not in the epicenter and recovered quickly. A large number of cavalry regrouped and began to move forward.

The movement of the Han army was extremely peculiar. Wei Changfeng personally went down to the third team and urged the soldiers of the third team to move forward, and the twenty god locomotives were pushed to the front, arranged in a bow shape along the unbroken gap about two miles, forming a pocket array. The two groups of cavalry hurriedly left the group and rushed towards the direction of the twin cities at full speed.

The rest of the Han army retreated and regrouped several miles away.

Wei Changfeng nervously watched the soldiers of the third team busy.

The third group of soldiers was divided into three parts, the first of which of three thousand men was busy pulling up ropes in the same direction as the great fissure, cutting a stake every other section to form a tripwire, and inserting the handle of a spear back into the earth along the bow position, forming a barbed grate with the tip of the spear inclined forward.

Part of the 3,000 men in the second part were busy refueling the arrows sent by the other troops, so that they could be installed in the arrow platoon of the repeater for a while, and the other part would cut off the spears sent by the other troops, forming a flying spear that could be fired in the barrel of the flying spear.

The 3,000 people of the third team were personally led by Zhang Sizhu, all of whom were selected good archers, and the arrows sent by the other 10,000 teams were selected to carry on their backs, each carrying three bows and seven or eight barrels of arrows, and everyone was very burdensome.

The other thousand people were led by Zheng Liu, anxiously preparing the god locomotive and preparing to enter the big battle for a while.

Bai Qi kept patrolling from south to north, and then from north to south, and wherever there was a problem, he would solve it, but Wei Changfeng seemed to have nothing to do.

However, this feeling is what Wei Changfeng likes. Now, he seems to have become the general of the third team again, and the feeling of intimate cooperation with Bai Qi is back.

Ahead, the horn sounded, and the Hun army began to approach.

Wei Changfeng looked behind him, a large group of Han troops had already completed the formation and were hurrying south. He breathed a sigh of relief, now, he only hoped that General Fang could complete the task in time, otherwise, their 10,000 people would really not be able to withstand the impact of 150,000 Hun cavalry.

Not far away, a group of cavalry hurried back, each with a hoe in his hand, and some even holding two hoes.

"Order," Wei Changfeng did not wait for the cavalry to reach the order, "let them throw their hoes here, do not dismount, return to the twin cities at once, and collect grain, grass, bows and arrows, quickly!" ”

The Han soldiers of the cavalry rushed into the bow position, threw down their hoes, and then returned with their horses, and in a short time threw their hoes all over the place.

Seeing that the hoe had arrived, Bai Qi shouted at the soldiers to pick up the hoe and dig a pit on the spot: "Hurry, hurry up!" You don't have to dig deep, one foot deep is enough, be careful, don't dig too big! Fast! ”

On the other side, the Huns were close enough to see their faces.

Wei Changfeng glanced at the bow-shaped position, although the arrangement was not very perfect, but it was better than a little obstacle, seeing that the Hun army would arrive at the position in a few moments, he ordered: "The other troops will retreat left and right, wait for my order, and let General Zheng prepare!" ”

At the bow position, the 6,000 men of the Han army quickly retreated to the left and right sides, and the 3,000 archers stood in the gap between the divine locomotives and lined up.

Wei Changfeng exhaled softly.

Now, what he has to do is not to withstand the Hun army, but to drag it out for enough time, the question is, can he do it?

The Hun cavalry has arrived!

The long crack restricted the advance of the horses, they couldn't cross over the crack, three zhang, it was a distance that could not be reserved, but they could rush through the flat land of these two miles, as long as they could rush through, behind this group of Han troops were hundreds of thousands of Han troops waiting to be slaughtered!

Wei Changfeng slowly raised his hand.

His hand can't fall easily, as soon as it falls, there will be a rain of arrows, and he has to wait, wait until the best time, when he needs it most. Because he was facing an army of 150,000 Huns, he didn't have enough arrows to withstand such a huge number of enemy troops!

This earthquake can be said to be God's trouble, but it can also be said that God is helping. Because if there was no earthquake, there would be no wide and long crack that cannot be seen at a glance, and without this crack, it would be impossible for him to fight 150,000 people with 10,000 people. It depends not on the attitude of God, but on the attitude of people, if you have courage and wisdom, people will win the day, without courage and wisdom, God will not help you!
