Chapter 095: Triangular Relationship
Dun Wu is a scout, the most outstanding master of the younger generation of the Wei family's martial arts, and the forty Wei family soldiers who followed him are also carefully selected brave and shrewd people, they are not only good at fighting in battle formations, but also have some special skills that scouts have.
For example, rope climbing.
Although there were only one hundred and forty people, they still made a tactical echelon deployment. Wang Hui led thirty people as the vanguard, hanging upside down on the rope, holding the rope in one hand and the crossbow in the other, and sliding down the rope flying belt. Before they landed, one hundred and ten people from the second and third echelons used their bows and arrows to cover them, and carried out targeted strikes on the targets that had been selected to clear the obstacles for them.
More than 100 people practice archery every day, and they can reach the concentration of archers in seven or eight out of ten, which is no less powerful than 300 archers to shoot together.
A sudden rain of arrows, accurate shooting at the place where the first echelon was about to land, more than 20 Wei soldiers were shot at the vital point before they could understand what was happening, and they lost their lives in a daze. They fell to the ground almost at the same time, so that the Wei army next to them had no time to react at all, and a terrible gap suddenly appeared on the originally orderly battlefield.
Immediately afterwards, the thirty soldiers of the first attack echelon descended from the sky along the rope and landed accurately in that gap. Seeing that they were about to hit the ground, they skillfully turned over and quickly handed over all the ropes to Wang Hui's hands. Wang Hui held the rope in his hand, ran around the wheel of the lifting door, and tied all the ropes to the wheel.
He quickly tied the knot, then drew his sword and yelled, "Formation!" ”
Thirty Wei family soldiers responded violently, and quickly formed a circular array, the circle array is not large, the diameter is five steps, but it is divided into two parts, negligent but not leaky, covering each other. At the center of the formation is the reel of the Semen. In the face of the Wei army, which had not yet come to their senses, they did not bravely attack the enemy, but held this position steadily.
This formation is the landing site of the second echelon. By holding this point, they laid a solid foundation for the safe landing of their companions behind. Their task is to determine the safety of this point, not how many enemies to kill.
It was too late, it was fast, the first echelon had just landed, and the second echelon of seventy people stopped shooting, they grabbed the rope in turn, slid down quickly, and added to the circle formation, expanding the circle step by step. And forty people of the third echelon have been standing on the edge of the cliff, under the leadership of Tsutake, with bows and arrows for concentrated shooting.
Their target was that Wei General.
That Wei Jiang was not the first to notice that there was someone above his head, there was a roof of a city tower above his head, which was not easy to see, but he was the first to react. As soon as he saw the soldiers next to him fall in unison, he realized the danger and immediately ordered the guards battalion around him to counterattack, trying to regain control of the wheel. He even drew his sword himself and wanted to rush over, but as soon as he emerged from the castle tower, a dozen feathered arrows roared in, and several guards who rushed in front of him fell one after another. If it weren't for the guards behind him who grabbed him in time, he might have fallen under the arrow in the first place, even if he was wearing fine armor.
Looking at the tiles that were shot with a bang and fell to the ground and shattered into pieces, Wei Jiang's face turned pale, and through the roof above his head, he saw arrows whistling by, and the trembling arrow feathers tore the sky through turbulence, just like his mood at the moment.
With the safe landing of the second echelon, there were nearly a hundred Wei family soldiers on the wall, and their bizarre way of advent and powerful lethality gave the Wei army a heavy blow. The Wei army on the city wall was in chaos, some began to prepare to flee, and others rushed towards Wang Hui and others, trying to kill them and regain control of the situation. However, on the narrow city wall, their numerical advantage could not be brought into play at all, and the small formation formed by the powerful Wei family soldiers was like a soup pouring snow, killing them and retreating. What's even worse is that there are a group of archers above their heads, who are specially designed to deal with those generals, and they are so embarrassed that they have no time to command.
The Wei army on the city wall was in chaos, and the pressure on the Wu army was greatly reduced, and more and more people rushed to the city wall and joined the battle circle. As the city gates were lifted, more Wu troops swarmed in.
The Onkyo plug was broken.
Pan Zhang took his guards and killed the city wall in one go, looking at the corpses on the city wall and the Wei family soldiers who were calmly wiping the blood stains from the swords with the soles of their boots and cleaning up the battlefield, Pan Zhang was shocked. He had just seen the heroic posture of the Wei family's soldiers falling from the sky under the city, but in addition to thinking it was good-looking and even a little fancy, he didn't have too many feelings - falling from the sky, looking majestic, in fact, he regarded himself as the enemy's arrow target, as long as he hesitated slightly, the other party reacted, shot with bows and arrows from a distance, and formed a formation of spears, which would cause them heavy losses - now that he saw the overlapping corpses of Wei soldiers, he had a personal understanding of the strength of the Wei family's soldiers.
From the appearance of these people, to the resolution of the battle, at best, it is only a meal, and they can actually kill several times the enemy? Is this killing or chopping wood?
Of course, he didn't know that the Wei family's knife technique was also known as the wood-chopping knife method.
Killing is like chopping wood.
Compared with the strong force of these Wei family soldiers, Pan Zhang was even more shocked by Wei Feng's courage. This young man left Fang Ling unsaved, ran for hundreds of miles overnight, and was already a master of Yongqi, and now he has brought his advantages to the extreme, made a tactical arrangement that ordinary people dare not think of, and broke through Anqiao Fortress in a short period of time. Not to mention young people with such abilities, even if they are veterans who have been in the army for many years, they may not have the courage and insight.
This is a noteworthy opponent. Pan Zhang looked at the silent Wei family soldiers on the city wall, and was secretly vigilant.
Wei Ba walked down the hillside, and he could slide down the rope, but as a dignified prime minister's army, he couldn't climb down like a monkey like an ordinary soldier. For the sake of face, I had to spend more time and walked down the mountain road. When he walked to the city wall, Pan Zhang had already found the Wei general who had been shot and wounded, and said to Wei Ba with some regret: "This head is yours." ”
Wei Ba knew that the merits of the war in these years were not only counted by victory or defeat, but also by the first rank of the victory, especially the first rank of this kind of general, which was even more valuable. From Pan Zhang's envious eyes, it can be seen that he can probably be promoted to one and a half levels with this head.
Although Wei Ba has been in this era for more than half a year, he is also used to fighting to kill people, but he has not yet killed the living and used his head to ask for credit. He glanced at the Wei general whose face was covered in blood, and waved: "Escort down, find a doctor to heal him." ”
Pan Zhang looked at Wei Ba in surprise: "Are you going to catch it alive?" ”
Wei Ba smiled: "He can't run away." Pan Fujun, your subordinates are really brave, I am terrified to see it above, if I don't make a move, I won't be able to grab the credit. ”
The corners of Pan Zhang's mouth twitched, and he wanted to laugh but didn't. He rolled his eyes: "You are Wei Yan's son?" ”
"I am the second son and have an older brother. He was beside Zhuge Duwei, and if Pan Fujun could catch up, he should be able to see him under Fangling City. ”
"Hmm." As soon as Pan Zhang heard this, he didn't care about chatting with Wei Ba anymore, and he didn't even plan to divide the spoils, so he said hello, took his subordinates through the jam, and rushed to Fangling.
Wei Ba breathed a sigh of relief. Regardless of whether Pan Zhang can catch up or not, his task is completed anyway. In addition to the wounded, Pan Zhang also had nearly 4,000 people, who rushed to Fangling from here, that is, in one day. If Meng Da's life is big enough, he should be able to see Pan Zhang's reinforcements and hold out a little longer. If Meng Da was unlucky and hung up before Pan Zhang arrived, it would have nothing to do with him Wei Ba.
However, Wei Ba still hoped that Meng Da could hold on a little longer, not only to achieve Zhuge Liang's strategic goals, but also to allow Sima Yi and Pan Zhang to fight viciously. He always felt that Pan Zhang's entry into Hanzhong was a danger. Although this long-established veteran has not led many soldiers, he cannot be ignored and may become a strong opponent in the future.
It was precisely because of this consideration that Wei Ba deliberately said that Zhuge Qiao and they were about to arrive, and tricked Pan Zhang into going to Fangling as soon as possible, but he stayed in Anqiaosai to clean up the battlefield. That bit of loot is certainly valuable, but the dark psychology of killing people with a knife and sitting on the mountain and watching the tiger fight is the real goal.
The reason why the struggle between the three countries is more complicated than the struggle between the two countries is that this triangular relationship between the three countries is far more complicated than the relationship between the two parties. How to grasp the proportion in this, jishu is very difficult.
Pan Zhang left, and Wei Ba calmly cleaned up the battlefield. This battle was very fruitful, with the Wu army attacking in front, the Wei army did not expect that they would kill from behind, let alone that they would be able to fall from the sky from the cliff overhead. The battle ended quickly, and the casualties were not large, the Wei army killed nearly 1,000 people, one-third of whom were beheaded by Wang Hui and others, about 500 were seriously wounded, and the remaining 1,300 people had no chance to shoot at all, and the battle was over.
Wei Ba's losses were not large, and only a dozen of the 100 soldiers who followed Wang Hui were wounded, and none of them died in battle. The biggest loss was still Zhou Yu's subordinates, he injured more than 100 people and killed more than 30 people, Zhang Yu's losses were smaller, and the total casualties were only more than 50 people. Overall, it was a big win. Whether it was Zhou Yu or Zhang Ling, or those soldiers, they all smiled happily when they looked at the loot piled up like a hill. Only the Wei family soldiers were very calm, and they didn't dare to be interested in those armor weapons. After the Wei family's blacksmiths were upgraded, these previously valuable equipment became garbage in their eyes, and they didn't dare to be interested at all.
However, Wei Ba was short of money, so he still asked for a part, and most of the rest was given to Zhou Yu and Zhang Ling, leaving a small part to hand over as trophies. Zhou Yu and Zhang Yu were very happy, and their eyes became enthusiastic when they looked at Wei Ba.
