Chapter 337: Fierce Battle in the Mountain Path
Xu Shu's arrival is not only as simple as bringing 300,000 fresh troops, but also bringing confidence and momentum to the main force of Jizhou who are fighting, they are not fighting alone, there are 300,000 brothers.
Ma Chao's fiery temper doesn't care if you increase your troops or not, you have reinforcements, don't he have them, his reinforcements are more, and they are not a mile behind him, and they will arrive in a few minutes, and then see who can beat whom.
While speaking, the other few people of the eight strong generals led the infantry to arrive, and the current situation is interesting, the defense line built by the Jizhou army is not broken by the Xiliang iron cavalry, and the arrival of the Xiliang infantry makes the Xiliang iron cavalry lose the space to charge, unable to accelerate, for a while, not only did not make any progress, but let Zhang Liao seize the opportunity to lead the counterattack twenty meters out, and the front iron cavalry killed and injured many people.
In this way, they were forced to come to the place of Zhang Liao's old camp, which was much larger, but there were too many of them, and it was still a little crowded, and the iron cavalry could not rush up to speed.
"Li Kan and Cheng Yi, the two of you will lead a million infantry to withdraw from the mountain first, and wait for the military order at any time." In desperation, Ma Chao could only let most of the infantry withdraw first, or he had to let the iron cavalry withdraw and fight with the infantry, taking one of the two, but the iron cavalry had already had an effect just now, so Ma Chao decided to use the iron cavalry to attack the main attack and the infantry to assist.
Zhang Liao also continued to move forward, that camp is super large, it is easy for his 400,000 people to get in and it is difficult to get out, he doesn't want to fight with Ma Chao, he has to withdraw after waiting for an hour, if he is mixed with the enemy, how to withdraw, even if he withdraws, he can't get out, Ma Chao will definitely follow and enter the mountain level, so it will be too passive.
Now it's just a matter of defending. Unable to deploy his forces, he sent 200,000 men to the mountains on the left and right, which were gentle enough to walk and fight.
When Ma Chao heard the sound, he hurriedly sent soldiers and horses to the mountains on both sides, and transferred 100,000 troops from outside the mountains. He deployed 300,000 infantry on the mountain, of course, most of these people are player corps, Ma Chao can't use iron cavalry to attack fortifications, and he also uses his own people to attack in the mountains. But he still understands His Majesty's reasoning.
It is still a very normal offensive and defensive battle in the mountain road, you rarely come and I go, Zhang Liao is completely on the defensive, even if he is oppressed step by step, it doesn't hurt, he is getting closer and closer to the checkpoint, and he can hurry up when he retreats.
As for the battle on the mountain, it was quite orderly at first, and gradually evolved into a melee. It is no longer an intact formation, each looking for the enemy. Changing to a small organization mode of fighting, maybe thousands, maybe hundreds of people, fighting from one side of the mountain to the other side of the mountain, there are battlefields everywhere.
There are also two guild organizations among the player legions sent by Ma Chao, and they are also relatively famous guilds in the Xiliang region. It's just that the situation in Liangzhou is complicated, and they have been fighting for many years, and they have evolved into enemies, and the relationship between the two of them is not bad, so they joined forces to send troops this time. Each sent only 100,000 troops, 50,000 cavalry, 50,000 infantry, and left most of the military strength in their hometown, otherwise the enemy might seize the opportunity, according to the fact that if it is destroyed, then what is the use of how much benefit they get in the state, not to mention whether they can get the benefits is still unknown.
Now the cavalry is under the command of Ma Teng and Han Sui, their cavalry is not so elite, and Ma Chao can't look down on it, so he didn't bring it this time, but now their 100,000 infantry has become the main force in the melee in the mountains, and the other player legions are difficult to fight against the Jizhou army, only their 100,000 people have been fighting against the Jizhou army to the death, and they are not left behind.
In fact, it is said that the personal combat effectiveness of those scattered players is much stronger than that of the guild organization, and it is also stronger than the Jizhou army, but because of the lack of training, most of them are first acquaintances, and it is difficult to form effective cooperation with each other, so the combat power exerted in the actual war is much smaller, and they are defeated by the Jizhou army.
Fighting this kind of battle is to injure the enemy 1,000 and lose 800, maybe the Jizhou army in the mountain melee can be better, after all, most of the enemy troops faced are rabble, only a brute force, without any organization, but the battle between the mountain roads is very tragic.
This is a collision between real steel, every time there is a loud noise, followed by the screams of people, and the neighing of war horses, after a long time, the soldiers who died first and the war horses were trampled by the later people The flesh and blood are blurred, and the original appearance can no longer be seen, these corpses are also a blocking effect on the Xiliang Iron Cavalry, and the defense of the Jizhou Army can also reduce a little pressure.
Soon another hour passed, Zhang Liao felt that the time should be almost up, Tao Sheng's side should have succeeded if it went well, and it was useless to stay longer, Zhang Liao was thinking about how to withdraw quickly.
"Sir, is there a result of the battle on the mountain?"
Xu Shu replied: "The mountain has become a pot of porridge, our army is entangled with the enemy, but I heard that there is a strong army, and our army is tied, no one can eat anyone for a while, and our army still occupies an absolute advantage in other places." ”
"According to the calculation of time, Tao Sheng's side should have succeeded, I wonder if we should retreat, but at present, if we retreat, the enemy army will definitely follow and enter the checkpoint, then it will be troublesome."
Xu Shu sighed lightly: "Yes, this is a problem, if we don't withdraw well, our plan this time will fail, we have to think of a way." ”
Zhang Liao thought about it, and soon had a plan, saying: "In this way, you send another 100,000 people to the mountains on both sides to help the brothers defeat the enemy army as soon as possible, once the enemy army is defeated, quickly send me a message, I have a way to make the Xiliang army unable to catch up." ”
Xu Shu frowned and said, "Then you have tens of thousands of people left to stop the Xiliang Iron Horse?" ”
"Don't worry, although the Xiliang Iron Cavalry is brave, but the mountain road is narrow, they can't rush up, and tens of thousands of troops are enough."
"Okay, I'll send someone, you have to be careful."
At this time, the battle on the mountain was the most intense, the Jizhou army launched the most fierce attack on the enemy army under the organization of officers at all levels, and at the same time gathered troops and horses, some enemy troops have been completely defeated, the strongest resistance is of course the two Xiliang guilds, it is really difficult to defeat them, and even some local battlefields or the Xiliang army occupies a certain advantage.
Xu Shu quickly selected 100,000 people, all of whom were sword and axe men and spearmen, and scattered them to the mountains on both sides.
In this way, the strength of the Jizhou army has an advantage, these armies first help their own side to exterminate those scattered player legions, this part is easier to fight, under the attack of the two sides, most of the scattered player legions have been defeated in a quarter of an hour, leaving only tens of thousands of scattered players in the stars.
Drawing out the army, the officer organizations at all levels reorganized, and directly pounced on the two guild organizations, not surprisingly, it was another quarter of an hour, and the two guild organizations were also repulsed, and the Jizhou army did not pursue, but began to retreat rapidly in accordance with the military order, and reported the news to Xu Shu.
"Brother Wenyuan, news has just come from the mountain that the enemy army has been repulsed, and our army is organizing a rapid retreat."
"Good, good." Zhang Liao was overjoyed, turned around and asked, "Have you cut down the trees I asked you to cut down?" ”
"Don't worry, General, it's already been chopped down and is being placed in the back, ready to use."
Zhang Liao's eyes were blazing, and he said: "Next, we have to give Xiliang Tieqi a heavy blow, after retreating, organize a retreat, we must be fast." ”
He said to Xu Shu again: "Sir, the battlefield is dangerous, you better withdraw first." ”
Xu Shu never knew what Zhang Liao's strategy was. Ask, "Is that okay?" ”
Zhang Liao looked up to the sky and smiled: "Yuan Zhi, don't worry, the enemy army will definitely not be able to catch up." ”
As he spoke, a new round of charge of the Xiliang Iron Cavalry began.
"Listen to orders, giant shield wrestler, immobile as a mountain." Seeing the Xiliang Iron Cavalry rushing to the front, Zhang Liao shouted again: "Listen to the order, giant spearman, strike with all your might." ”
Up to now, the two sides have used several arms skills, but they are only in a small range, and not all armies use skills at the same time, but in this round of battles, the Xiliang Iron Cavalry did not use skills, and the Jizhou Army used the skills first, and instantly blocked the charge of the Xiliang Iron Cavalry, and hundreds of Iron Cavalry were intercepted and were not allowed to advance.
At this time, it's too late to use the skill, the speed has been stopped, and you can't turn back, the skill of the giant spearman has been stabbed in a blink of an eye, and the skill of the class is of course much stronger than the ordinary attack, and the iron horsemen in front of them have fallen off their horses, and the armor on their bodies is heavy, and they can't get up if they fall.
"Listen to orders, sharpshooters, pierce arrows; Giant spearmen, crazy stabbing attacks; Crazy swords, killing and slashing. ”
Zhang Liao took the opportunity to continue to command the army to attack, the giant shield wrestler was still responsible for blocking, and advanced step by step, the other three arms used skills to attack, and under one round of attacks, hundreds of Xiliang iron cavalry were all killed.
"Withdraw."
Taking advantage of the fact that Ma Chao had not yet organized a new round of attacks, Zhang Liao immediately led his army to retreat, and after retreating not far away, he found that the road was full of freshly cut down trees and, of course, fire oil.
"Ignition."
With a "boom", the raging fire spread all over the mountain road, and the Xiliang army would definitely not be able to catch up from the mountain road.
"Archery." …… (To be continued.) )
