Chapter 46: Rapid Change
Of course, Bai Qi's words were not very polite, but for Bai Qi, this was polite enough. risking army fees, filling up his own pockets, and having no soldiers or weapons when facing the enemy, even if he didn't kill his head, Niu County Ling couldn't be an official.
Niu Xian Ling naturally knew the joints in it, even if Bai Qi said it politely, he could only bear it, he responded repeatedly, but he secretly calculated in his heart how much silver taels should be taken to deal with this general.
Bai Qi didn't have time to pay attention to this county order, he hurriedly went to the city, ordered the city gate to be closed as he walked, arranged for defense everywhere, went up to the city wall, and saw that Wei Changfeng had already leaned on the battlement to observe the enemy's situation, and asked urgently: "Captain Wei, how is the enemy situation?" ”
Wei Changfeng shook his head.
He couldn't tell what the enemy was like right now.
When Fang Bai Qi agreed with the county order under the city, he had already hurried to the city, and after a while, the situation in front of him had changed several times.
First of all, the cavalry of the Han army could not withstand the pressure of the Donghu army, and retreated step by step, seeing that the Donghu army was about to break through the Han army's defense line. However, the cavalry of the Han army has already suffered heavy losses, and the infantry has no advantage over the cavalry, and now they are marching all the way, all of them are extremely tired, and there is no time to form a whole team, which group of people will go first and which group of people will enter the battle, although the total number is quite large, but it is impossible to stop the Donghu army for a while. Fortunately, the Donghu army also suffered a lot of losses, and although they broke through the woodland, the open space in front of them was too small, and the Han army was tightly entangled, so they didn't have time to line up the team, so they could only attack in a straggler state. On the whole, the Donghu army had the advantage, but the Han army showed no signs of defeat, and the two sides were still entangled.
Bai Qi only looked at it for a moment before he found the problem: "If we continue to fight like this, we are just afraid that it will not be good." ”
Wei Changfeng nodded.
That's true. The Han army is slowly retreating, the space in front of the Donghu army is getting bigger and bigger, and after a while, more troops of the Donghu army will come out of the dense forest and line up in formation, just afraid that the Han army will be difficult to resist. But what can he do? Now his and Bai Qi's task is to guard Jianchang City, and as for the rest, they can only watch.
"There, there!" Several soldiers who were watching from the sidelines suddenly cheered.
Wei Changfeng and Bai Qi looked at it at the same time, and they were also happy colors. I saw a group of about 3,000 Han soldiers standing out from the chaotic army, the queue was tight, all the way forward continuously, in a blink of an eye has broken through the battle line of the Donghu army, straight to the center of the Donghu army, the sudden attack of this group of new forces made the Donghu army in chaos, thousands of Han troops immediately rushed in from this gap, the Donghu army could not resist for a while, and there was a tendency to be divided left and right.
The drums sounded, and tens of thousands of Han troops rushed towards this gap, and it seemed that General Zhu planned to use this fighter to break through in the center.
"Great!" Bai Qi clapped his excited hands with a high-five.
Wei Changfeng's face was not excited, and he looked nervously at the rear of the Donghu army.
Bai Qi immediately noticed that Wei Changfeng's expression was wrong, and while following Wei Changfeng's gaze to the rear of the Donghu army, he asked, "Centurion Wei, is there anything wrong?" ”
"Something is very wrong!" Wei Changfeng pointed to the back of the Donghu army, "Look over there, General Bai Shen, the situation is not right!" ”
Bai Qi squinted his eyes and looked carefully, and his face also changed.
On the left rear of the Donghu army, smoke and dust were flying, and there must have been a large number of cavalry gathering. I wonder if General Zhu is on guard?
"Someone, report to General Zhu quickly, saying that there is an army gathering behind the left side of the Donghu army!" He hurriedly ordered. His order had just been given, and before the herald could get out of the city, he heard the sound of the horn, and about 3,000 Donghu cavalry had already rushed straight from behind the left side!
Wei Changfeng and Bai Qi looked at each other at the same time, and asked in unison, "What should I do?" ”
At this time, the Han army concentrated in the central part of the breakthrough force, about 10,000 Han soldiers have penetrated deep into the enemy formation, the strength on both sides is very weak, although the number of this group of enemy troops is not very large, but it is just on the soft flank of the Han army, if this group of East Hu army bypasses the flank of the Han army to attack, the Han army will be dumpling!
However, since the Donghu army bypassed the Han army from the flank, it happened to pass under the city of Jianchang, and now the only thing that can stop this Donghu army is the Baiqi garrison!
"We have to strike!" Bai Qi settled down and said, "This time, we can't wait for orders!" ”
"General Baishen, please let the last general command!" Wei Changfeng said suddenly on the side.
Bai raised his hand and waved: "No!" This time I'm in command! ”
The two suddenly looked at each other at the same time, and a smile appeared on their faces.
Violating the order in battle, opening the city to attack, although the victory is also defeated, not to mention the 3,000 infantry against 3,000 cavalry, it is really difficult to win, this battle is defeated, at most you can avoid death, defeated, lose your head is certain. Wei Changfeng fought for this command at this time, the reason is self-evident, Bai Qi knew this very well in his heart, so he firmly refused.
Both of them suddenly realized that the two of them were now more than simply a centurion and a general, and that it would be better to use the word "brother" when it came to the feelings of the two.
Just when the two were talking at this moment, the situation changed again, and I saw hundreds of Han cavalry rushing out of the oblique thorns, desperately intercepting the Donghu cavalry, but the number of Han cavalry was small and the combat power was insufficient.
