Chapter XXXVIII: The First Crusade 11

readx;?? When Ruan Weng Shao found out about the ambush under Shen Yang's command, he did not immediately inform Zhang Jiashi because he was not sure enough to confirm the authenticity of the news. Pen Fun Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info[燃^ζ–‡^δΉ¦εΊ“][].. [].v.om

If this matter is rashly reported to Zhang Jiashi, it will make Zhang Jiashi and Chen Ping make a wrong judgment, and it is very likely that the battle will be lost.

So in a sense, Ruan Weng Shao thinks that Lu Gao's suggestion is not unreasonable. Instead, a team of more than fifty scouts was quickly dispatched to investigate the matter.

Of course, if everything goes well, he should be able to feedback the truth of this news to Zhang Jiashi in the evening.

What Ruan Weng Shao and Lu Gao didn't expect was that he would hurt Yingbu this time, because according to the original battle plan, he would rush to the flank of Zhang Han's army in the evening and launch a surprise attack on Zhang Han's army.

However, not long after the news of Nguyen Weng Thieu reached the ears of Zhang Jiashi, before Yingbu launched an offensive, the Shenyang army and Zhang Han's army countersurrounded the prisoner army under Yingbu.

If Zhang Jiashi hadn't arrived in time and forcibly attacked Zhang Han's camp, forcing Zhang Han to turn most of his forces to resist Zhang Jiashi's offensive, I am afraid that the casualties of Yingbu's convict army would not be smaller than the losses at that time.

......

But now Li Xin is in a very complicated mood, looking at Zhang Han dozens of meters away from him.

After all, Zhang Han was once one of the pillars of the Great Qin Empire, and it was impossible for Li Xin to deny Zhang Han's merits.

But after the Battle of Julu, Zhang Han became a sinner in the entire Guanzhong region. Just the hundreds of thousands of Qin army souls who were killed by Xiang Yukeng in the Thorn Plain, as well as their families, would not tolerate Zhang Han being able to enter Guanzhong again.

Perhaps, death is the best result for Zhang Han, who has embarked on such a path.

"It's been a long time, General Li Xin. ”

Zhang Han looked at Li Xin, whose hair was a little gray, and his mood was also very complicated.

He was naturally well aware of Zhang Jiashi's appointment of Li Xin as a general. He also did not think that Zhang Jiashi's appointment was wrong.

Because Li Xin is indeed quite capable, and he is indeed the most senior person in the Qin army.

Especially after Mengwu died in Hanzhong, the Great Qin Empire under Zhang Jiashi was a person who could compete with Li Xin. I don't think so.

Zhang Han knew very well that Li Xin's ability was no worse than him, and his idea of destroying the Chu State with an army of 200,000 troops, in fact, if it wasn't for the betrayal of Great Qin by Chang Wenjun's brothers, I am afraid that it would really be possible.

Therefore, Zhang Han does not guarantee that he can match Li Xin in terms of commanding troops, and even he himself thinks that the other party is superior.

Zhang Han knew that the person who fought him was Li Xin and not Zhang Jiashi. In addition to being a little disappointed, I even seemed more worried. After all, he didn't think that Zhang Jiashi's ability to command troops was strong, on the contrary, the Li Xin in front of him was the opponent he needed to guard against even more.

And now, he said a sentence to Li Xin: "Back then, Lone once witnessed the demeanor of General Li, and now it seems that General Li's demeanor has not diminished back then." If General Li is interested, Gu is willing to give up this throne to General Li. ”

When Li Xin heard Zhang Han's words, he couldn't help but shake his head and laugh: "Zhang Han, the king is not the kind of suspicious person. On the contrary, the king is highly valued by the emperor, and you should know this better than me. After all, you knew the king at that time. ”

Hearing Li Xin's words, Zhang Han laughed: "Yingzheng, the person that the old dog thief values, how can he be the master of the people?"

"But, Zhang Han. Regardless of the first emperor, the king has now achieved half of the world, which is what the king himself has obtained. And you, Zhang Han, are just getting a little bit of Yingchuan County and Nanyang County right now, and you are complacent there. If the king is not a man, then what are you?"

Li Xin stopped the idea that Li Shang, who was following him, and his son Li Hao, who were going to rush up and kill Zhang Han, looked at Zhang Han with a calm expression.

And Li Xin's words made Zhang Han hate itchy, after all, compared with Zhang Jiashi now, he is really a heaven and an underground.

If Zhang Jiashi really wants to attack Yingchuan County and Nanyang County in an all-out way. He simply won't be able to hold it up for long.

And the words that Zhang Han said were more just trying to provoke Li Xin, but now, it was obvious that Li Xin was not moved at all, but he was a little out of breath.

After taking a moment to calm down his mood, Zhang Han looked at Li Xin and said, "General Li hasn't seen him for many years, but he really has a lot of cultivation. ”

"When people get older, they are naturally not very interested in many things. Zhang Han, the king has no intention of attacking Yingchuan County right now, if you can retreat and return to the territory of Yingchuan County, we can also stop fighting. ”

Li Xin said this sentence that made Zhang Han silent for a while, after all, Li Xin's suggestion really made him a little moved.

But he knew very well that Zhang Jiashi would not let him leave Sanchuan County so easily. They themselves are on the same page because of a number of factors. If Zhang Jiashi can obtain his head, then it will also win over more Guanzhong people. He is very clear about this.

But Zhang Han pretended to be moved, and said a sentence: "Since this is the case, please allow Gu to think again!"

"Please!" After Li Xin said this to Zhang Han with his fists, he quickly rode back to the rear of his military formation.

............................................................ Dividing line ..........................................

After the meeting between the two ended, Li Xin directly asked to see Zhang Jiashi, and said to Zhang Jiashi: "Your Majesty, Zhang Han is really difficult to deal with, do we send someone to command General Ruan and Captain Yingdu, saying that we will stop our original plan?"

Zhang Jiashi heard Li Xin's words, pondered for a while, and then looked at the shadow of the tent outside the camp gate, and finally could only sigh and shake his head: "It's too late, if everything goes well for Yingbu and Ruan Weng Shao, then ...... They should now set off to flank the attack. ”

Zhang Jiashi's words made Li Xin silent, because it was still a little difficult to find troops who did not know where to march from dozens of miles.

And it's like this blatant search for someone...... It is also impossible for Zhang Han not to find such a situation.

Li Xin quickly thought of sending people to wait for the arrival of the army of Anh Bu and Nguyen Ong Thieu on some roads.

Zhang Jiashi thought about it for a while, and there was no good way to do it, so he could only do this kind of thing according to Li Xin's suggestion.

......

However, some time before the arrival of dusk, Zhang Jiashi received a piece of news that shocked him, that is, Shen Yang actually rushed over.

And it was actually lurking behind Zhang Han's camp area.

"What does the other person want to do?"

Zhang Jiashi muttered such a sentence.

He quickly walked over to the map and looked at the situation nearby. Outcome. He quickly gasped.

Because according to what Nguyen Ong Thieu said, the situation of the officers and soldiers under the command of Anh Bu is quite dangerous.

After all, the officers and soldiers under Shen Yang's command could take advantage of Yingbu's lack of notice, and then encompass the prisoner officers and soldiers under Yingbu's command with Zhang Han.

In such a situation, Zhang Jiashi himself could imagine how bad the situation would become.

He quickly roared at the guards outside the door: "Let the general, the prime minister and others quickly conduct a military discussion!"

...................................................... Dividing Line................................................

Yingbu didn't expect that he would be pitted by Ruan Weng Shao in a sense.

He didn't expect that he had sent out the scout team to contact Zhang Jiashi. will be intercepted and killed by all the personnel sent by Zhang Han.

And seeing that the time was getting late, Yingbu thought about it for a while. It was decided to launch an offensive on the flank of Zhang Han's army in accordance with the battle plan arranged by Zhang Jiashi.

However, after Yingbu led the army to launch an offensive, he encountered a fierce counterattack by Zhang Han's army.

The counterattack of more than 30,000 Zhang Han troops made the prisoner army pay a great price of casualties, and even the officers and soldiers under the command of Zhang Han quickly opened the gate of the flank camp and launched a counterattack against the prisoner army when the Qin officers and soldiers were not strong.

In such a situation, Yingbu knew very well that he had been cheated this time.

But before Yingbu could make a quick decision. That is, the officers and soldiers of the prisoners in the back were also attacked by another unit.

"Zhang Han already knew that we would do this?"

This question quickly surfaced in Yingbu's mind.

In a sense, Yingbu's question is not wrong, but what Zhang Han didn't expect was that the counterattack tactics he carefully designed didn't catch Zhang Jiashi's big fish at all, but only caught Yingbu's small fish.

Zhang Han was naturally quite dissatisfied with such a thing. But in the case that Zhang Jiashi did not take the bait, a general under Zhang Jiashi was also what Zhang Han hoped to stay.

However, Yingbu and the convict army are not so good to stay.

At the very least, the Yingbu and the prisoner army, who decided to stick to the waiting for help, made Zhang Hanjun and Shenyangjun pay a great price.

......

"Rush, !!" A member of the Shenyang army led the army to attack the Yingbu army formation located in the west.

However, a large number of crossbows caused a large number of Shenyang officers and soldiers to fall on the way to the charge. The dense crossbow generals repelled the repeated attacks of the two armies of Zhang Han and Shenyang.

But there was one thing that Yingbu couldn't ignore, and that was that he didn't have a lot of crossbows in his hands.

After all, before today, the Prisoner Army had consumed a lot of crossbows, although they had been recycled as much as possible, but in such a situation, the crossbows that Yingbu could recover plus the inventory under his command were added, and the Prisoner Army's crossbow stocks were not much.

Soon. At the same time that the crossbowmen who had been consumed one after another had to pick up their weapons and prepare for close combat, Zhang Hanjun and Shenyangjun found that the long-range projection ability of the prisoner army had been reduced a lot, so they launched a round of intensive assault again.

......

Before the two sides were close to each other, Zhang Jiashi finally led the army into action.

Unlike Zhang Han's situation, almost all of the troops under Zhang Jiashi's command poured out.

Zhang Han and Shen Yang commanded the troops to besiege the prisoner army, so naturally they didn't care too much about the movements of the main force under Zhang Jiashi in the north.

They even had to be convicted of desperate battles, attracting a lot of attention.

Even Zhang Han had to mobilize more and more troops to attack the formation of the British and Bu Army.

The two sides broke out in the area at the junction of Sanchuan County and Yingchuan County.

......

Compared with the uneven equipment of the two attack troops of the Zhang Han Army and the Shenyang Army, the convict army under the command of Yingbu is almost all the cutting-edge equipment of the Liaodong system.

In particular, Zhang Jiashi ordered a large number of new spears to be made, and after the officers and soldiers of the Zhanghan Army and the Shenyang Army approached the range of the spears, a large number of throwing spears were thrown out of the shield array.

In terms of accuracy and lethality, the spear thrown like a raindrop is even much stronger than a long-range crossbow.

A large number of Zhanghan troops and Shenyang officers and soldiers paid a very heavy price for casualties under the throwing of these spears.

Because the number of officers and soldiers who can wear armor in these armies is relatively small. Moreover, even the iron armor on the ironclad soldiers under the command of Zhang Jiashi could not effectively resist the throwing of these spears.

So in this case, a large number of officers and soldiers of the Shenyang Army and Zhang Han on the front line paid a very heavy price.

But the number of spears thrown by spear throwers in the rear of the heavy infantry was also quite limited.

In order to lighten the burden on these troops, Zhang Jiashi only had one spear thrower carry four throwing spears. Even if it was a stockpile of spears with the baggage troops of the Anglo-Bu army, the number of these spears could not withstand the offensive of the Zhanghan army and the Shenyang army for a long time.

After about half an hour later, the convicts' spears were once again depleted.

The two sides have officially entered the stage of hand-to-hand combat.

And in such a case. Zhang Han discovered that these Qin troops, who lacked long-range attack methods, were also quite strong in terms of melee ability.

Because he and Shen Yang sent out to impact the opponent's formation. It was simply impossible to effectively shake the opponent's dense shield array.

Many of the heavy infantry of the Prisoner Army were trying their best to maintain the integrity of the shield array, while constantly stabbing their long knives out or slashing at the enemy.

However, after a long time, the physical exertion of these heavy infantry was very serious, and many heavy infantry were quickly broken through by the officers and soldiers of Zhang Han's army and Shenyang's army after consuming a lot of physical strength.

More and more Qin heavy infantry were killed or seriously wounded.

Faced with this situation, Yingbu couldn't help but think gloomily in his heart: "Perhaps, tonight will be my last night." ”

............................................................ Dividing line ..........................................

The bright moon in the sky hung in the night sky, and to the north of the Zhanghan military camp, a large number of chariots and accompanying infantry quickly formed a formation to attack the camp.

Under the rapid assembly of the siege equipment unit under the command of Zhang Jiashi. More and more packing trebuchets were assembled, and then they were added to the offensive against the Zhanghan military camp.

More and more oil bombs were thrown into the camp of Zhang Han's army, and the officers and soldiers of Zhang Han's army on this side did not expect that the Qin army would directly attack them.

With the oil bombs in the sky becoming more and more dense, the camp of Zhang Han's army in this direction soon turned into a sea of fire.

Li Xin stood on a crossbow chariot and gave an order to his officers and soldiers: "Charge !!"

A large number of crossbow chariots quickly removed the shield protection on both sides, and then with the help of nearby infantry. Lift the Glaive Blade, which has been weighted by a rod, onto the chariot.

The purpose of these glaive knives was not to kill people, but to chop the wooden fence of the camp.

In fact, such a thing is also redundant in a sense, after all, the packing trebuchet under Zhang Jiashi's command has been thrown many times with oil bombs, and it will soon make Zhang Hanjun fence in this regard. Blazing.

However, Li Xin did not think so, but directly ordered the crossbow chariot troops to carry out a surprise attack.

Soon, at a distance of less than three hundred meters, more than a dozen crossbow chariots quickly turned around and galloped along both sides of the fence after arriving at the perimeter of the Zhanghan military camp.

And at this time, these Qin army charioteers slashed this thick-backed glaive knife against the fence.

Soon. These fences or obstacles on the other side were breached by the light riders of the crossbow chariots.

In such a situation, the remaining troops of Zhang Han's army had not yet reacted, and after the fence of the camp collapsed, they faced the impact of a large number of Qin knights.

Zhang Jiashi personally went into battle this time, and under the escort of Yu Yong, he led 5,000 knights to personally rush into the camp of Zhang Han's army.

And Li Shang and Su Teng were knights with more than 3,000 people each, followed closely behind Zhang Jiashi's headquarters and broke into the camp of Zhang Han's army.

Zhang Jiashi, who drew out the Dingqin Sword and constantly slashed and killed Zhang Han's officers and soldiers, had only one thought, that is, to quickly rescue the Yingbu Division.

This time it could be regarded as his negligence, if it weren't for the fact that he was careless again in this regard, Yingbu and the convict army would not have been in danger.

Under Zhang Jiashi's example, the Qin knights' will to fight was quite strong, and many of the officers and soldiers of Zhang Han who stayed behind could not resist the elite knights under Zhang Jiashi's command.

More and more officers and soldiers of Zhang Han fell on the assault route of the knight troops under Zhang Jiashi.

But the knights under Zhang Jiashi's command also paid a lot of casualties, and even Zhang Jiashi was almost not hit by the arrows shot by Zhang Hanjun.

If it weren't for the fact that the red clouds continued to spray black flames and incinerate the enemies in front of him, I am afraid that Zhang Jiashi would not have encountered so few dangers.

However, Zhang Jiashi did not entangle with more and more reinforcements from the Zhanghan army, but directly led the troops to break through the Zhanghan army's extended camp in this area.

......

"It can't !!"

Zhang Han soon learned the fact that the north of the camp was broken through by Zhang Jiashi's army, and he never thought that the camp he had painstakingly managed during this period of time was as fragile as a piece of paper.

Of course, Zhang Han didn't think of one thing, that is, the way Zhang Jiashi used to attack the camp was something he had never seen before.

And Zhang Jiashi generally does not want to do this. After all, the production of these oil bombs is relatively small, and the cost is relatively high.

Of course, in order to rescue Yingbu, Zhang Jiashi can't manage so much...... (To be continued.) If you like this work, you are welcome to vote for recommendation and monthly passes, and your support is my biggest motivation. )
