Chapter 548: The Situation Suddenly Changes, Breaking the Enemy with Momentum
Standing on the top of the towering building, Zhang He can easily see the situation of the Han army camp.
The wet cowhide on the wall of the Han army camp was crumbling, and he didn't see it.
But how high the toughness of wet cowhide is, Zhang He, who was one of Yuan generals, knew it clearly.
During the Battle of Guandu that year, Cao Cao dispatched hundreds of catapults.
Although Cao's military thunderbolt at that time had the disadvantage of being able to only shoot a single shot, the number of hundreds of them was enough to make up for this disadvantage to a large extent.
But what about in the end?
Hundreds of thunderbolts were eventually rendered useless by the wet cowhides.
It was precisely knowing this thing that Zhang He had the move to turn the catapult.
Zhang He's move also stemmed from his realization that Ma Jun's improved catapult was indeed very powerful.
Since he had this power, Zhang He thought why didn't he adopt a more effective attack method?
It's also very simple.
As mentioned before, due to the topography of the street pavilion, the military camp of the Han army spanned several miles.
And even if the Han army prepared more wet cowhides, how could it completely cover the mile-long camp wall?
At present, this camp wall is guarded by wet cowhide, and if you can't attack him for a while, then just attack him from another place.
With Zhang He's order, more than a dozen catapults began to turn and head towards the wall of the Han army's camp in the other direction.
When more than a dozen catapults began to turn, Deng Ai, who sensed Zhang He's intentions, was the first to exclaim.
And after Deng Ai's exclamation, Liu Feng's face was already blue.
Hanging wet cowhide is a time-consuming and labor-intensive task.
Wet cowhide is not a catapult, it has its own wheels to move.
In this case, it will take a lot of time to quickly transfer the wet cowhide from this camp wall to another.
And with the speed at which the catapult is moving, will the heavens give him this time?
There is no need to guess this, after all, the speed of the catapult is clearly presented in Liu Feng's eyes.
Although the catapult was not moving fast, it was slowly increasing in speed under the push of a large number of Wei troops.
At the speed at which the catapults were moving, it was possible that the Wei army would have hauled the catapults in advance before the Han army hung the wet cowhides on another camp wall.
And if there is no protection of wet cowhide, with the power of the Wei army's catapult, how long can the Han military camp wall, which is basically a wooden structure, last?
Many speculations flashed quickly in Liu Feng's heart, but after many speculations flashed, Liu Feng's heart finally left only a firm thought.
We can't let the Wei army's catapults be smoothly pushed to the camp wall elsewhere!
After waiting for only this only thought left in his heart, Liu Feng hurriedly said to Ding Fengyan on the side:
"I heard that Qing is known for his bravery, would you like to bathe in blood with me today?"
Liu Feng's sudden inquiry stunned Ding Feng.
Not only Ding Feng, but also Deng Ai and Jiang Wei on the side were also stunned because of Liu Feng's inquiry.
With the current critical situation, Liu Feng asked this obviously pointed sentence, how could Ding Feng and the others not guess Liu Feng's intentions?
Ding Feng is also a resolute person, or he never knew what to be afraid of.
Ding Feng bowed solemnly to Liu Feng and said, "I am willing to go with the general." ”
After hearing Ding Feng's statement, Liu Feng's face showed a rare smile.
After a few moments, he walked down the lookout with the long knife at his waist in hand.
And Ding Feng also followed closely behind Liu Feng.
It's just that Liu Feng hasn't taken a few steps yet, but his arm is tightly grasped by a person.
This person is none other than Deng Ai.
Deng Ai said to Liu Fengjin in an admonishing tone: "The thief army may be waiting for the general to lead the army out of the camp, the general thinks twice!" ”
Liu Feng's reactions and words all reflect what he is going to do next.
That was to lead the army out of the camp and stop the catapult from moving.
Although this method can buy time for the Han army, it will undoubtedly put Liu Feng himself in great danger.
The tens of thousands of Wei troops who had just left the camp had been guarding outside the camp all the time!
Although the number of Han troops is also tens of thousands, a large part of the Han army has to shoulder the responsibility of defending the camp and cannot go out lightly, so in the end, the Han army that Liu Feng can bring out of the camp is only a few thousand at most.
Thousands against tens of thousands, plus the enemy general is the long-famous Zhang He, the Han army has little chance of winning on the surface.
Deng Ai's blocking was not only for Liu Feng's good, but also for the good of tens of thousands of Han troops.
Because once something happens to Liu Feng, then the military spirit of the Han army guarding the street pavilion will definitely suffer a huge blow.
The Lord will be the courage of the army!
In the face of Deng Ai's dissuasion, Liu Feng naturally knew Deng Ai's thoughts, but Liu Feng did not hesitate at all, he shook off Deng Ai's hand suddenly.
In fact, what Deng Ai could think of, how could Liu Feng not think of it?
But Liu Feng had a reason why he had to lead the army out.
Liu Feng looked at Deng Ai, and under the gaze of Deng Ai, he said the reason in his heart:
"I promised Your Majesty that I would guard the street pavilion for him!"
Without too much esoteric analysis or too much exciting agitation, Liu Feng only uttered such a simple sentence.
But this sentence reveals Liu Feng's extremely firm mind.
After saying this, Liu Feng turned around and walked towards the bottom of the lookout without looking back.
Soon after, a loud drum beat sounded in the Han army camp.
The loud drum sound fell into the ears of Deng Ai and Jiang Wei on the lookout, and the moving look on their faces could not be calmed for a long time.
But Deng Ai and Jiang Wei behaved like this, is it because of the uplifting snare drum sound of the Han army?
is because of Liu Feng's words, and because of Liu Feng's determination to see death as home.
The sudden sound of war drums in the Han army camp also attracted the attention of Zhang He, who was not far away.
After seeing that the gate of the Han army camp was opening, Zhang He excitedly clapped his hands with his hands.
Liu Feng is not Mi Yang in the end, after all, he still fell for his plan!
Seeing Zhang He's excited look, and the full favor next to Zhang He, he understood Zhang He's entire plan today at this moment.
Zhang He first let Ma Jun's improved catapult come into play, the main purpose was to test the power of the improved catapult on the spot.
But behind this main purpose, Zhang He also prepared two plans in his heart according to the different situations.
If the improved catapult was not as powerful as Ma Jun said, then Zhang He would have ordered the more than 10,000 Wei troops who were the first to leave the camp to immediately storm the Han army camp according to the original plan.
But if the improved catapult really has extraordinary power, then Zhang He will lure the Han army out of the camp by moving the catapult.
At this time, the more than 10,000 Wei troops who took the lead in the camp had a place to use.
As for what if the Han army never leaves the camp?
Then Zhang He's original act of pretending to move the catapult can become true.
No matter what the Han army did, Zhang He had a corresponding plan to put the Wei army in an advantageous position.
This is the unparalleled Zhang He!
After Zhang He saw that the Han army, under the leadership of Liu Feng, was leaving the camp one after another, he smiled and said to the full favor on the side:
"Manjun, please see me break the enemy today."
After saying this, Zhang He immediately walked towards the bottom of the building.
Looking at the back of Zhang He's departure, the admiration for Zhang He in his heart became deeper and deeper.
The prince really didn't choose the wrong person this time.
Just when Zhang He rode his horse towards the phalanx of tens of thousands of Wei troops, Liu Feng and Ding Feng led 3,000 Han troops and had already lined up outside the Han army camp.
And as soon as the 3,000 Han troops lined up in formation, Liu Feng waved the spear in his hand and led the 3,000 Han troops behind him to kill the tens of thousands of Wei infantry phalanx in front of him.
Perhaps Zhang He had arranged it in advance, and there were not many surprises from the sudden attack of tens of thousands of Wei troops on thousands of Han troops.
Of course, the greater reason why Wei Jun can perform this way is that they have a clear understanding of their own advantages.
Tens of thousands against thousands, what are you panicking about?
It's just that tens of thousands of Wei troops ignored one thing.
That is the number of the two armies, and the soldiers of both armies have it in their hearts.
So why did the Han army dare to take the initiative to attack the Wei army when they knew that their own number was less than the Wei army?
Part of the reason is that Liu Feng, the main general, is not afraid of death, so that the three thousand Han troops also have the mentality of seeing death as home.
But the more reason is that most of the tens of thousands of Han troops that Liu Feng brought to garrison the street pavilion were from the Liangzhou army.
Ji Han does not pay attention to the private soldier system.
Even if the Liangzhou army has a deep Mi Yang imprint, as long as Liu Bei is in one day, with his prestige, he can easily mobilize any army in the Han Dynasty.
And among the many troops of the current Han army, which unit has more feats than the Liangzhou army?
For such elites, it is impossible for Liu Bei to let Mi Yang take them to the Praise Slope Road, just to use them as suspicious soldiers.
This is also another reason why Liu Bei sent the three junior generals of Liangzhou as Liu Feng's deputy general.
With the three young generals of Liangzhou, Liu Feng can better control this tiger and wolf army.
And for the Liangzhou army, will they be afraid of the Wei army, even if the Wei army is outnumbered by them.
Naturally, this will not be.
Because since the day the Liangzhou Army became an army, it has always fought a tough battle in which the weak defeated the strong!
The brave two Han generals, Liu Feng and Ding Feng, shouted and waved the weapons in their hands to kill into the array of tens of thousands of Wei troops.
The elite 3,000 Liangzhou troops also firmly followed behind the two fierce generals step by step, raising the spears in their hands and stabbing at the Wei army in front of them.
Soon after, the 3,000 Han army and the tens of thousands of Wei troops fought each other.
Today, the two armies did not use long-range weapons such as bows and arrows to heat up the field, and they started with the most fierce white-knuckle battle.
When Zhang He was still a hundred steps away from the battlefield where the two armies were fighting, he heard bursts of shouts and killings from that battlefield.
In the bursts of blood-pumping shouts of killing, there were also the fierce roars of many weapons intersecting, and the wails of many sergeants before they died.
Three sounds that would make ordinary people feel creepy, but when they fell into Zhang He's ears, they made him seem intoxicated.
These three voices are a long time gone for Zhang He.
It's just that when Zhang He really came to the battlefield and saw the scene that happened in front of him, he was so angry that he almost didn't fall off his horse.
It turned out to be a formation of tens of thousands of Wei troops, but under the charge of the 3,000 Han troops, there was a faint trend of instability.
And most of the wails of the sergeants heard by Zhang He were also from the mouths of the dead Wei soldiers.
Originally, the number of the Wei army was three times that of the Han army, and it should have been the Han army that was besieged by the Wei army and fought hard, but it was obvious that the situation on the battlefield was not like this.
If it weren't for the small number of Han troops, tens of thousands of Wei troops would have been defeated by the Han army.
As for why tens of thousands of Wei troops fell into such an unfavorable situation when fighting against the 3,000 Han army, the main reason is that most of the tens of thousands of Wei troops in the current battlefield are troops transferred from Huainan.
When Cao Cao was alive, he mainly divided Cao Wei into three major theaters.
The three major theaters are mainly Guanzhong, Jingzhou and Huainan.
Because when Cao Cao was alive in this world, Jingzhou was not attacked by Sun Quan under the efforts of Mi Yang, so in Guanzhong and Jingzhou theater, the Wei army has always faced the Han army with brave foot battles.
In this case, even if there are more local elites in the Wei army, Cao Cao will definitely give priority to the Cao Wei elites in the Guanzhong and Jingzhou theaters.
As for the Huainan War Zone.
To be honest, based on Sun Quan's performance in the previous attacks on Hefei, Cao Cao really had no reason to place Cao Wei's field elite in Huainan.
It is also because the strategy of the Huainan Theater has always been based on defense, so most of the Wei troops in the Huainan Theater are sergeants who are good at defending the city and not good at field warfare.
If they were faced with an ordinary enemy, the Wei army from Huainan might not have fallen behind.
But what they are facing now is the Liangzhou army, which has won a hundred battles and wiped out the elite of the Wei army in Guanzhong and Jingzhou, can this be regarded as an ordinary enemy?
Such a Liangzhou army, both in terms of combat experience and morale, is almost at the peak of the world.
In the infantry battle, in addition to the number and formation are very important, the elite degree of the soldiers is more important!
Zhang He is a famous general, and he naturally saw at a glance the reason why tens of thousands of Wei troops fell into disadvantage.
At this moment, Zhang He's heart was full of resentment.
If it weren't for the Liangzhou fiasco, how could the elite in Guanzhong not be one out of ten, and why would he see such an angry battle situation today!
Although Mi Yang is not in the street pavilion, his great contributions to the Han in the past few years have already imperceptibly changed many aspects, and it is also profoundly affecting the current battle situation in the street pavilion.
Today's Han Liangzhou Army is the first in the world in terms of combat power.
But Zhang He knew that now was not the time for resentment.
Although because the elite of the Han army was far above the Wei army, the numerical gap between the two armies was largely compensated.
But Zhang He is not helpless.
After Zhang He came to the battlefield, he immediately took over the command of tens of thousands of Wei troops.
Soon, Zhang He changed the formation of tens of thousands of Wei troops through the command of Lingqi.
Under the command of Zhang He, tens of thousands of Wei troops were no longer concentrated together.
After thousands of Wei troops left the array, assembled towards the two flanks, they formed a new formation and attacked the rear of the Han army.
The infantry and the general's command art also affected the victory to a large extent.
In addition to commanding the Wei army to encircle the Han army in a changing formation, Zhang He also ordered people to quickly turn back to the camp and let them mobilize all the Wei troops in the camp.
Today, he Zhang He wants to break the enemy with his strength!
The changes in the Wei army's formation couldn't hide from Liu Feng, but Liu Feng had no fear on his face.
Looking at the Wei army that was constantly surrounding him, Liu Feng spat out a mouthful of blood foam from his mouth.
His eyes were full of murderous intent.
He promised his father that he would guard the street pavilion for him!
