Chapter 1432: Arabian Storm (Verse 103)
The commander of the Bukuts, though somewhat dazed at the beginning of the battle, fell into the hands of the Kopyali. So that the good shape shì was buried, and almost let his own army be defeated.
However, at this critical moment, he did not continue to lose his head.
He seized the opportunity, and when the Koparian army began to look chaotic due to the attack of the Imperial Army, he very wisely quickly reorganized his troops and threw himself into battle.
Although the current Bukut army is already seriously underarmed, and in addition to a large number of casualties, there are also a large number of soldiers who have fled, but at the moment he can no longer care about so much.
You know, now there is a panic in the Kopyali army, and the whole army is unstable. So it's a good time to attack.
If he can't even seize this opportunity, then this Bukut commander really grew up eating.
Because he knew very well that if he wanted to defeat the Kopari, this was the best time.
If you miss this opportunity, then there will be no more.
Moreover, he did not know how long the army that had suddenly appeared in the rear of the Koparian army would be able to fight.
Therefore, he had to keep the same pace of battle with that army while they were still able to continue fighting, and do his best to fight the Kopoari army.
Only by doing so will the Bukut side have the possibility of turning over.
Otherwise, they will only taste a bitter and cruel defeat.
The defeat in this vital battle, the result of which was brutal the commander of the Bukuts could not have been unclear.
So, he has to give it his all now.
Besides, there is no slim hope of turning defeat into victory, so why don't he fight it.
Therefore, he didn't even pay attention to the soldiers who fled, and just asked his cronies to gather his descendants, and then threw himself into the attack.
The time frame for this process is short. It didn't take too long.
The commander of the Bukuts is well aware that time is of the essence for the current situation.
The sooner he can go into battle, the more likely he will be to defeat the Kopyali army.
Of course, he also knew very well that although the troops he had gathered were his own descendants. But after more than five hours of fighting, the soldiers of the unit were not only in pain, but also physically unable to keep up.
But now, he can't care so much, he must let them into battle.
Because that's the only way. He has a better chance of reversing this unfavorable situation.
Fortunately, his troops are all his descendants.
Therefore, there will be no problems in command, and the officers and soldiers of these units can also act according to their own orders for the most part.
It is precisely because of this that he will ignore the reasons for those soldiers and troops who have fled.
In the rear and around the Bukut army, there were many soldiers scattered and fleeing for their lives.
They had been frightened by the attack of the Kopoari, and the dangerous situation just now. People at this time. There is no longer any thought of fighting in my mind, some are just running for my life to save myself.
It's all human.
Kill!
The Bukuts' more than 10,000 troops, after a brief gathering, began to attack on their own initiative.
And because of the accession of the Bukuts. This made the side of the Kopyali army, which was already in chaos, even more chaotic.
Some of the soldiers did not know whether to retreat or whether they should meet the Bukut army.
It's a pity that those grassroots officers can't come up with any effective decisions at this time. This qiē leads to the emergence of chaos.
From here, it can be seen that the military literacy of the grassroots officers of the Kopoyali people is not very good.
If it was the Imperial Army that encountered such a thing. There would not be such a self-organized position as the Kopyali, and the officers at the rank and file would organize their soldiers in a very short time and begin to choose the most advantageous target for the counterattack.
Of course, with an army like the Imperial Army, it is impossible to encounter such a situation.
The army on the side of the Kopyali was about 30,000 men at this time.
It can be said that at this time, the Kopoyali people still maintained an advantage in terms of troops.
If their officers were able to stabilize the disorganized troops, it would not be impossible to resist.
It's just that with the chaos of the troops, those officers also panicked.
Now they can't do anything but shout at the soldiers, or ask their men to stop the chaos and panic of the soldiers.
However, how could the chaos provoked by those soldiers be stabilized all at once?
Not to mention the fact that facing the flanking attack of the two armies in front and behind made the soldiers feel terrified, and they did this in this situation.
Therefore, no matter how hard those senior officers tried, they just couldn't stabilize the panic of the soldiers and the chaos of the ranks.
And now, the Bukuts have begun to charge, and they are about to rush over.
However, the Kopoyali troops did not organize a defensive line at all to prepare for it.
It's a bad thing, and it can't be worse.
Of course, this can't be blamed on the Kopoyali people, who let Zhang Xiao lead the Imperial Army behind their ass and stab them fiercely.
Moreover, this point just hit the weakness of the Kopari, making them 'painful' now.
Otherwise, the Kopyali would not have withdrawn their fighting troops and allowed them to return to the defense.
And, precisely because of this, the Bukuts were given a chance to breathe and hope for a comeback.
Speaking of which, this qiē would have been defeated by the Imperial Army, and if it weren't for the Imperial Army's accession, the Kopyali would have already routed the Bukuts and were in an easy pursuit of them.
Oh, my God!
It's all the damn army in the back, I don't know where it came from.
It was their appearance that disrupted what should have been, and put themselves and the army in such an extremely passive situation.
Many of the high-ranking officers on the Koparian side hated the Imperial Army to death.
But hate to hate, and now they can't do anything.
After all. Now there are a lot of problems in their army, and there are still many crises that need to be solved quickly.
In the blink of an eye, the Bukut troops, armed with small round shields, had already rushed over. One by one, they shouted loudly to cheer themselves up, and then rushed into the line of the Kopoari forces in confusion and engaged in hand-to-hand combat.
The onslaught of the Bukuts made the fringe troops of the Kopyali, which were already in chaos, completely collapse at once.
They couldn't even defend and counterattack, so in the face of the Bukut attack, all these forces could do was continue to retreat.
Moreover. Among the troops that were attacked, the soldiers began to appear in large numbers of fleeing soldiers, as the Bukut forces had collapsed.
And for this qiē, the officers of the periphery troops could not and could not stop it, because even they themselves were fleeing for their lives or retreating.
Damn the Bukuts, they really take the opportunity to strike at this juncture.
They don't know what shit luck they have taken, but when they are about to fail, there will be such a force to show up and rescue them.
If it weren't for that odious army in the rear. And to disrupt our situation, then we should easily pursue these Bukuts now.
The Kopoyali commander's face turned pale, his teeth clenched, and his face stared ugly in the direction of the Bukuts' onslaught.
However, he now needs to make a decision.
After all. In this situation, our own forces are already very unstable, and they will fall into a complete collapse at any time.
So, he's going to choose the hateful enemy army that is attacking the rear. Or to continue to settle the Bukuts. Of course, there is another option, which is to withdraw troops from both flanks.
At that time, I chose to withdraw it. If you don't continue to attack the Bukuts, then it will be impossible to continue to entangle them now.
Otherwise, he wouldn't have given the order to take it down just now.
As for the retreat from both flanks, he didn't think about it either.
You know, even now, you still have a certain advantage in the forces in your hands.
Well, the remaining option is simple, go and deal with that hateful army!
Yes, it is to deal with the army that appeared in the rear and disturbed the great shape.
The commander of the Kopyali people hated the Imperial Army led by Zhang Xiao.
Moreover, depending on the situation, if this Zhang Xiao and his army were not resolved, then he would not be able to continue fighting against the Bukuts at all.
In an instant, the commander of the Kopyali had already made a decision.
And he has such a choice, except for hating Zhang Xiao and the Imperial Army, that is, because considering that if the Imperial Army is not solved, he will not be able to lead the army and the Bukuts to continue fighting.
After all, if Zhang Xiao and his army are kept in the rear, then there will always be a situation of instability in the rear of the Kopyali army.
The impact is a little too great.
Besides, the Imperial Army only has more than 4,000 troops, which should be able to be solved at one time in terms of quantity.
Based on this consideration, the commander of the Kopyali made such a choice.
It's a pity that he still looks down on the Imperial Army, and even forgets that the troops he sent can't stop this matter at all, and just thinks that he has an advantage in troops, so he chooses to deal with the Imperial Army.
Therefore, this hastened the defeat of the Koparian army.
"Whole army! Give me a full assault on that strange army, and I command you to defeat them in the shortest possible time, and then we will defeat the Bukuts on our back! We still have a great hope of victory, and we must fight to the end......"
With the decision made by the Koparian commander, Kopyali's troops, who had remained steady after his order, began to charge the Imperial Army.
For a time, the pressure on the imperial army phalanx led by Zhang Xiao increased a lot. (To be continued......)
