Chapter 922: Withdrawal of Troops
Chapter 922: Withdrawal of Troops
"The enemy has intensified its attack, and our army is again in the midst of defeat. Marshal, what now?" compared to the Blue Army, many of the puppet army are ordinary martial artists who have not undergone special training, and they are not as easy to dispatch as normal armies. After the Blues show the characteristics of an army, if they do not do anything, they are likely to find themselves in trouble again, which naturally has many disadvantages for the situation of the war.
"Let's stimulate those puppet soldiers again, let them understand that there is still a possibility of survival if they resist, if they cower, no one will want to live," his eyes flashed, and Leng Yi's face did not change much compared to before.
"Yes," the man who received the instruction rode to the battlefield position.
"If there is a cowardice who does not advance and has no merit, all relatives will be killed after the war. ”
"All the relatives of the glorious war dead are alive. ”
In a blink of an eye, there was a loud shout from the back of the battlefield, and the sound spread to every corner. After hearing the shouts from the rear, the puppet soldiers were stimulated again, and they sped up their weapons one by one.
Rao's reaction was big, and the reaction of the Blue Army was also not small, so at first, under the disparity in strength, Rao's army had a large number of casualties at first, but with the continuous replenishment of follow-up personnel, Rao's army gradually blocked the Blues' attack with the help of intensive defense, and then launched a counterattack against the Blues.
Some puppet soldiers not only have to grab credit, but also ensure that they can survive, so they are extremely brave, one after another, and in a blink of an eye there are radical puppet troops everywhere. For the sake of the life and death of their relatives, many puppet soldiers seem to be crazy and do not care about their own life or death, or they are fighting with an attitude of treating death as home.
Rao's strong counterattack soon hit the blue army couldn't parry, and soon the blue army in front of the front of the battle line felt that Rao's army had changed a lot. The current Rao army is extremely fierce, as if they are crazy, which makes them more and more afraid. They can fight normal people, but in the face of this group of enemies who don't know whether they are alive or dead, whether they are generals above or soldiers below, they are becoming more and more unconfident.
Since they didn't know why the enemy army was so brave, some generals hurriedly sent people back to send a message to Zhang Jiutian about the changes in Rao's army. Without countermeasures, they would not be able to fight the Rao army.
"The whole family of those who died on the battlefield can live, and those who fear the enemy and do not fight will execute all their relatives," After receiving the specific news from the front-line personnel, after thinking about it briefly, Zhang Jiutian immediately understood the main reason why Rao Jun was not afraid of death and fought back. Judging from the current battle situation, Zhang Jiutian and the generals present could see that the time had come for the cavalry to appear. As long as the cavalry can cut off the enemy's front and rear from the enemy's flank, the enemy's head and tail will not be able to take care of each other, not to mention the demoralization, and even the enemy commander will be in danger.
"General Yang and General Dong, each of you will lead 15,000 cavalry to attack the rear of the Rao army's flank and break through the enemy's defense line with all your might," Zhang Jiutian gave the order, and waited for the cavalry to bring them a turnaround.
"Yes," Yang Shifeng and Dong Shaozhen agreed, and then rushed to the front of the two teams of cavalry who had been waiting for a long time. In a burst of fierce war drums, the 30,000 cavalry galloped out in two groups, left and right, bypassing the long battle line and heading straight to the rear of the Rao army.
"Rush," the terrain here is flat, according to many people's guesses, the cavalry will be like a bamboo directly cut off the enemy's waist, so when the sound of cavalry charging is heard, the morale of the blue army on the battlefield suddenly soared, one by one from conservative defense to strong resistance, for a time everywhere was the shouts of the blue army.
"Kill, ......" Those who want to make contributions show their bravest side, with their usual training results, the difference between the regular army and the stragglers is shown again and again, and the Rao army is hit head-on, the faster the Rao army rushes, the more he dies, there is only life and death on the battlefield, not for those ordinary martial arts cultivators to show their strengths and feet, everything is the pursuit of simplicity and practicality.
In the face of the rush of the Rao army, those undisciplined puppet soldiers could only try to protect themselves in a panic, but they did not cooperate with each other, even if they used their whole body skills, they did not have much ability to survive. As soon as the cavalry moved, the puppet army fell in pieces, but the situation there of the cavalry did not develop in the direction that everyone expected.
When the two cavalry rushed to the rear of the Rao army, the 30,000 heavy shield soldiers who had been prepared had already formed a shield wall to block the advance of the Rao army, and the high shields completely blocked the personnel in the rear. Unexpectedly, the position of their attack was the position of the main defense of the Rao army, and after an accident, Dong Shaozhen and Yang Shifeng could only continue to lead the troops forward.
A crossbow horse flew over the shield and flew inside, landing on the spear raised by the Rao army inside, screaming one after another, whether it was a man or a horse, it was a dead end. The attack in front was blocked, and the people behind were frightened on the shields, and the people were knocked on their backs.
The heavy shield soldiers in front of the cavalry are all direct troops of the Rao army, and they all perform extraordinary, with the help of mutual resistance, the Rao army on both sides successfully blocked the charge of the blue army.
The attack was blocked, because many of the cavalry in front of them collided with the people on their backs, and the people who followed behind dealt with it even worse, and soon the front of the formation became chaotic. With the cooperation of the Rao army, one after another the blue army fell off their horses, and the rows of shield soldiers blocked the front like a strong wall.
"Withdraw," Dong Shaozhen, the heavy shield soldier who had almost just faced the Shangrao army, realized that the situation was not good, not only the attack was blocked, but also suffered heavy casualties, and without knowing how powerful these heavy shield soldiers were, Dong Shaozhen felt that he could not force the charge. But the cavalry in the rear lacked practical experience, and although Dong Shaozhen's retreat was conveyed, the execution was slow, and in the blink of an eye, many people rushed over to die.
On the other side, it was a little slower than Dong Shaozhen's reaction, and when Yang Shifeng noticed that the situation was wrong, he also ordered a retreat, and then lost a lot of soldiers and horses in the process of retreat because of his own chaos. Then, under the active impact of those heavy shield soldiers, there were many casualties. Although he could see that Leng Yi was still in his original position, and it was not far from them, there was nothing he could do about it.
The shield walls composed of rows of heavy shield soldiers were too strong, and the resistance to them was too great, not that they were afraid of those heavy shield soldiers, but that the casualties of the forced charge were too great. After withdrawing the troops, according to the plan, Dong Shaozhen and Yang Shifeng helped their side fight on both sides of the battlefield. However, before they got there, the Rao army that had caught up in the rear was already shouting, "The enemy army has been defeated." ”
Those with heavy shields were naturally not capable of pursuing the cavalry, but they did not forget to cause trouble for the cavalry, and a series of shouts sounded on the way back of the cavalry. At the same time, the puppet troops on both sides saw the blue cavalry retreating, and they directly caught up with their weapons one by one.
"Surround the enemy," shouted as he chased, and the puppet soldiers really thought that the Blue Army was fleeing in defeat. However, when they charged, they really surprised the cavalry who was rushing towards them. The speed of the cavalry slowed down, and when the two sides met, some of them were not very neat, and as a result, they were killed by the puppet soldiers with spears.
The cavalry who returned to the defense did not show the advantage of charging, and after forcibly confronting those puppet troops, because they also had to guard against the heavy shield soldiers who copied from the back, the morale was not strong enough, although they were still rushing into the camp of the Rao army, but there were many casualties along the way, and they could not show the advantage of the cavalry. Judging by the casualties on both sides, the combat power of the two cavalry was no different from that of ordinary infantry.
After encountering the strong resistance of the puppet army, Dong Shaozhen once again found that the situation was wrong, originally the position where they charged was weak, but when they rushed over, the people in front of them never decreased, and soon they couldn't even advance. The battle line could not move forward, and the heavy shield soldiers on the side pursued again, and if they continued to fight, they would not be able to exert the combat power of the cavalry, and it might be difficult to even withdraw from the battlefield. In a hurry, Dong Shaozhen could no longer wait for the military order from above, and ordered to retreat again.
"Withdraw," the more than 10,000 cavalry once again showed the characteristics of high mobility and quickly withdrew from the battlefield.
"The enemy army has been defeated," Dong Shaozhen moved with more than 10,000 people, and the shouts of the Rao army behind him were even louder. When the cavalry passed by, the faces of the blue troops fighting on the periphery of the battlefield changed dramatically. If they didn't believe it when Rao Jun shouted just now, then now they have to believe it if they don't believe it.
At the same time, more puppet soldiers saw the night army withdrawing, and one by one burst out with great courage, constantly waving their weapons to kill the blue army, and after discovering that the blue army was not very powerful, the puppet army's reaction became stronger and stronger.
"Kill," after a shout of killing erupted from the back to the front, the morale of the puppet army soared, even if the personnel lacked cooperation, under the encouragement of this momentum, the battle line still began to move forward as a whole, and the puppet army launched a counterattack again.
Faced with the same situation, Yang Shifeng was still one step slower than Dong Shaozhen, and he lost his troops and lost his generals, so he finally withdrew from the battlefield, and this time, the enemy's heavy shield soldiers left a deep impression on Yang Shifeng.
After the retreat of the two cavalry without command, under the strong counterattack of the Rao army, the long battlefield area, the blue army has a tendency to go away.
On the war horse, Zhang Jiutian, Shi Jiangchuan and others, who had not yet understood, changed their faces one after another, but they did not expect that the cavalry would withdraw because of the unfavorable battle. After a moment of surprise, Zhang Jiutian and the others had already thought about the serious impact that the cavalry retreated would cause.
The shouts of the enemy's rear were so loud that even they could hear them clearly, and it was not difficult to imagine that the morale of the enemy troops would inevitably be greatly boosted as a result. Now that the two cavalry have lost their effectiveness, Zhang Jiutian no longer has to think about the outcome of the war, but whether the current war can continue.
The answer is obviously no, because the puppet army that confronts them head-on, no matter how many casualties the puppet army has, it is not painful for the Rao army, but they can't bear their own casualties, so even Lin Xuanzhong doesn't have to ask for instructions, while his side can still stabilize the situation now, Zhang Jiutian directly ordered the withdrawal of troops, and today's war must end early.
"Withdraw the troops," the drums stopped, and the rear of the Blue Army remembered the sound of a gong, and then all the generals who were directing the battle in front received orders.
