Chapter 114: The Decisive Battle of Fengyang (4)
Could it be that the enemy has ambushes?
Thinking of this, Xiong Tingbi felt uneasy. @.23wx.
"Quick, order people to send more scouts around, and be sure to find out if the enemy has ambushes."
Xiong Tingbi said to the soldiers beside him.
"Yes, my lord."
Those pro-soldiers hurriedly said.
Soon a large number of noaters were sent out, and then began to probe around.
By this time, the cavalry had already begun to charge, but in the face of dense crossbows and artillery, these cavalrymen were almost all shot to the ground before they could rush in front of the enemy formation.
The strong crossbow is always the nemesis of the cavalry, not to mention that Lu Yan is equipped with a large number of artillery.
Seeing this, Xiong Tingbi couldn't help but sigh.
It seems that if you want to capture the enemy camp, you can only think in the long run.
"Order Mingjin to withdraw his troops."
Xiong Tingbi thought for a while and said.
After receiving the order to collect the troops, the attacking Ming troops retreated in a hurry.
The enemy's artillery fire was so strong that they lost at least a few thousand men and horses just by attacking for a while.
Just when the cavalry of the Ming army was charging, in Lu Yan's camp, seven thousand white robes were already ready to go.
Lu Bu rode a fiery red rabbit horse, wearing a purple and gold crown with a bundle of hair, wearing a white robe, coupled with a handsome face and a high-spirited figure, he was at the forefront of the white-robed army.
In fact, Lu Yan never thought of holding on, his idea had always been to attack, and it was precisely because of this that he left such a wide flat land at the gate of the camp.
Add to that the large army he left not far away, if he still wants to hold on, he has a problem with his brain.
"Pass the order, no matter who it is, as long as Xiong Tingbi can be captured alive, the official will be promoted to the third level, and the reward will be 10,000 taels of silver."
Lu Yan said.
Soon, a soldier ran over and said: "Lord Qiqi, Wen Hou said that he should not be promoted, he just needs the prince to help him resurrect Diao Chan and the iron cavalry of Bingzhou." ”
"The king promised him."
Lu Yan said with a wry smile.
After getting Lu Yan's promise, Lu Bu couldn't help but lift his spirits, and then geared up, ready to teach the Ming army a hard lesson.
After seeing the retreat of the Ming army, with Lu Yan's order, the crossbowmen with divine arms at the gate of those large camps immediately withdrew to both sides.
Those white robes rushed out of the camp like a whirlwind under the leadership of Lu Bu.
Seeing this, Xiong Tingbi couldn't help but be extremely surprised.
"The enemy actually rushed out?"
Originally, he was having a headache about how to attack the camp, but he didn't expect the enemy to rush out, which was simply overjoyed.
"Quick, mobilize all the cavalry to attack them, and we must not let them go. If they flee back to the camp, they will take advantage of the situation and kill the enemy camp. ”
Xiong Tingbi said excitedly, but suddenly his face changed greatly.
"Not good!"
I saw that those white-robed troops had already killed the retreating cavalry and infantry under the leadership of Lu Bu.
In the face of the charge of those white-robed troops, those cavalry were a little overwhelmed, not knowing whether to turn back to meet the enemy's charge or continue to retreat.
As for the infantry, even less so, their losses were extremely heavy, and what arrays had long been scattered.
As soon as the enemy's cavalry rushed over, they were slaughtered on the ground.
The infantrymen were panicked and desperately fled backwards.
Anyway, the order they received was to retreat, so they were also carrying out the order.
"Quickly order the cavalry to entangle them."
Xiong Tingbi said loudly.
When the cavalry received the order, they hurriedly stopped their horses, then turned their horses around and charged towards the enemy, and the two cavalry quickly collided together.
However, the Ming army suffered heavy losses when attacking the enemy's formation, and its morale plummeted, and there was no fighting spirit in the face of a morale-boosting enemy.
In addition, Lu Bu's bravery is the best in the world, and when he sees people or pick or stab, there is almost no one under him.
Moreover, the white-robed army is also a rare elite in the world, with excellent combat power.
With this charge, the cavalry was easily scattered.
But Xiong Tingbi is not an easy person in the end, under his command, the Ming army in the distance has already set up a formation.
As long as the white-robed army dares to attack, they will give the enemy a head-on blow.
Seeing this, Lu Bu immediately slowed down his horse's momentum and waited for more white robes to rush out of the camp.
Then he led the cavalry through a large arc and rushed towards the retreating infantry.
Seeing this, Xiong Tingbi couldn't help but look like earth, and then scolded.
"Damn bastard!"
After those infantrymen found that there were cavalry chasing after them, they hated their parents for giving birth to two legs for themselves, and they all rushed towards the position of the Ming army.
"Get out of the way! Don't rush into battle! Go around the side! ”
Some of the Ming soldiers yelled desperately.
But where could the fleeing Ming soldiers take care of this, and there were screams from behind.
Maybe one step faster is life, and one slow step is death.
They desperately rushed towards the Ming position.
"Fire! Fire on me! ”
A Ming army general shouted desperately.
Hearing this, many Ming soldiers were embarrassed.
These people in front of them are not enemy soldiers, but their robes.
Firing now will never hurt the enemy, but will kill your own robes.
Some of the Ming soldiers opened fire on the Ming troops who were charging into formation, and some of the Ming soldiers lowered their firearms in their hands.
The fleeing Ming soldiers immediately let out a scream, and they looked at the robes in disbelief as they opened fire on their own people.
But the screams from behind them soon woke them up.
"Don't fire! We are our own people! ”
Some of them shouted desperately and rushed towards the positions of the Ming army as they roared.
That Ming army general almost fainted to death, won't you idiots go around the formation?
Some of the Ming soldiers retreated after firing, and the Ming troops behind came up, and they hesitated for a while with their guns raised.
The general of the Ming army was in a hurry, he drew his sword and cut down a hesitant Ming army, and then shouted: "Lao Tzu let you ......"
At this moment, a cold arrow came from somewhere, which pierced his throat and made him swallow all the words below.
The general felt the arrow in his throat and looked at the enemy not far away in disbelief, and then fell reluctantly.
Lu Bu sneered and put down his bow.
Without the command of the generals, those Ming troops immediately became at a loss.
The fleeing Ming army finally succeeded in disrupting their formation, and Lu Bu also rushed into the Ming army with a white robe, and then began to slash and slaughter.
This Ming army was once again scattered under the defeat.
Now the battlefield is full of Ming troops fleeing for their lives, and seeing this, Xiong Tingbi can't help but turn pale.
The Ming army in the west was only 20,000, and now several Ming armies have been scattered by the enemy's cavalry, and Xiong Tingbi only has 10,000 Ming troops in his hands.
At this time, Lu Bu slowed down the horse's momentum, and then changed direction, and the front of the army pointed directly at Xiong Tingbi's Chinese army camp.
Seeing this, Xiong Ting sneered even more, it seems that the enemy wants to smash Huanglong directly, and then capture the king first.
By this time there were about three thousand cavalry gathered around him.
The Ming army had more than 60,000 troops, and the cavalry was about 10,000. Since they were surrounding Lu Yan from all sides, it was already rare to be able to gather 3,000 cavalry.
Coupled with the fact that the enemy's cavalry was still rushing out of the camp, this gave Xiong Tingbi a very bad premonition.
At this moment, a thunderous roar sounded among those white-robed soldiers.
"Capture Xiong Tingbi alive, the official will be promoted to the third level, and the reward will be 10,000 taels of silver."
"Capture Xiong Tingbi alive, the official will be promoted to the third level, and the reward will be 10,000 taels of silver."
