Chapter 607: The Spark of the Stars on the Five Zhangyuan Plain
Guo Huai, who led the pro-army to retreat one after another, saw the reinforcements behind him finally arrive, and his face showed ecstasy for the rest of his life.
Guo Huai wanted to speak out again to boost his morale, but when his eyes scanned the battlefield in front of him, he found that his tens of thousands of Wei troops were already difficult to command.
In the face of tens of thousands of Han troops chasing and killing step by step, most of the Wei army was fleeing in all directions, and only two or three thousand Wei troops fought back bravely under their own command.
After seeing this scene, Guo Huai decisively gave up his original idea, and he led the two or three thousand Wei troops of Shang Cheng's formation to quickly retreat to the rear.
Guo Huai knew that only by leading the army to retreat into the phalanx of tens of thousands of Wei troops in the rear could his life be guaranteed.
And when the two or three thousand Wei troops with fighting spirit withdrew from the battlefield, the remaining thousands of Wei troops immediately showed a situation of collapse.
As time passed, more and more dispersed Wei troops began to spontaneously follow the two or three thousand Wei troops who had evacuated the battlefield in advance and retreated to the rear.
After perceiving the scene, Ding Feng and Liu Feng were overjoyed.
After the Wei army in front of them broke down one after another, of course, they could see that tens of thousands of Wei troops were attacking not far away.
But the important thing is that most of the Wei army was also retreating in the direction of the tens of thousands of Wei army formations.
These thousands of defeated troops are not the Wei army led by Guo Huai who can still listen to command.
Once these thousands of Wei troops are routed and rushed into the phalanx of tens of thousands of Wei infantry, then the phalanx of tens of thousands of Wei infantry troops will be disturbed to a great extent.
This is a great opportunity!
During the Battle of Xiangfan, the Han army used similar tactics to defeat the stronger Wei army.
Thinking of this, the emotional Ding Feng and Liu Feng did not care that tens of thousands of Wei troops were approaching in front of them.
They shouted to the Han army behind them, and continued to rush forward to kill.
And as the rout of thousands of Wei troops approached the formation of tens of thousands of Wei troops, Cao Zhen, as the chief general, immediately realized the intentions of Ding Feng and Liu Feng.
But Cao Zhen didn't feel flustered.
It is true that before this battle began, he did not have much certainty of victory in his heart.
But he has been raised by Cao Cao's side since he was a child, and after many years of exposure to his ears and eyes, his mind is very incomparable.
Cao Zhen's outstanding ambition let Cao Zhen know that from the moment he set foot on the land of Weibei, he had no way out.
Either defeat tens of thousands of Han troops in adversity, and get a respite for themselves and tens of thousands of Wei troops.
Or blood spilled on the land of Weibei.
There is no other way.
Cao Zhen, who knew this, how could he have panicked emotions in his heart at the moment?
Not only did he not feel flustered, but Cao Zhen at the moment also seemed very calm.
's calm mind made Cao Zhen see Ding Feng and Liu Feng's intentions at a glance, and also made him come up with a countermeasure in a moment.
When Guo Huai led two or three thousand Wei troops into his own army formation, looking at the thousands of Wei troops that had not yet arrived, Cao Zhen's eyes showed no pity.
Those who can't fight for the Great Wei should naturally not live in the world!
As the cold light flashed in his eyes, Cao Zhen raised the order flag in his hand.
At the moment when the Tuhuang Lingqi was raised, the thousands of archers behind Cao Zhen had already put sharp arrows on the bowstring.
Then, as the Tuhuang Ling Banner was waved down, thousands of arrows that were ready to be fired rose into the air at a galloping speed, and finally smashed into the thousands of Wei troops with the momentum of meteors.
Not the slightest defense.
Thousands of Wei troops were routed, and they didn't expect in advance that tens of thousands of comrades would release arrows at them.
Defenseless, the Wei army running in front of them was shot by arrows and fell to the ground.
And after the Wei army in front fell to the ground, the Wei army in the rear still maintained a running momentum, which made them quickly trip over the body of their companions who fell to the ground in front.
After a large number of Wei troops broke out and fell to the ground uncontrollably, the phalanx of tens of thousands of Wei troops was still releasing arrows.
Each round of arrow rain attacks killed many Wei troops.
After a few rounds passed, the surviving Wei army finally couldn't stand it anymore.
In order to save their lives, they could only struggle to get up from the pile of corpses on the ground, and then fled in both directions with terrified faces on their faces.
There are Han troops in the rear, and there are comrades in front who don't miss the old love, and they can only do this now to escape.
This also made it impossible to stop between the Han army and tens of thousands of Wei troops.
Ding Feng and Liu Feng, who were standing in front of the Han army array, looked at the wailing Wei army in front of them, and the two of them looked at Cao Zhen with a little jealousy in their eyes.
Good decisiveness, such ruthless means.
But Ding Feng and Liu Feng are both brave people, how can they be intimidated by the scene in front of them.
They wanted to continue to lead the Han army behind them forward, but the sound of gold behind them made the two of them and the nearly 10,000 Han troops behind them stop.
Different sounds symbolize different military orders.
The sound of gold that Ding Feng and Liu Feng heard right now meant to make them stop moving forward for a while.
This golden sound was ordered by Zhao Yun.
Obviously, Zhao Yun, who has a stable personality, doesn't want Ding Feng and Liu Feng to be too aggressive.
The halt of the advance of nearly 10,000 Han troops also attracted Cao Zhen's attention.
Looking at the tens of thousands of Han troops getting closer and closer behind the nearly 10,000 Han troops, Cao Zhen also understood Zhao Yun's intentions.
The current battle situation is advantageous for the Han army, so the Han army should naturally fight steadily.
It's just that although the Wei army is at a disadvantage at the moment, is it bound to be defeated?
In Cao Zhen's view, it may not be.
In this rare gap, Cao Zhen, who was sitting on a horse, looked back and shouted to the tens of thousands of Wei troops behind him:
"There is no way back for us today!
Win or die!
Today, I wish to win with you or die together! ”
Cao Zhen's heroic words soon spread to the ears of the whole army through the rumors and the mouths of the generals.
After hearing what Cao Zhen said, the morale of tens of thousands of Wei troops was greatly boosted.
Cao Zhen is a noble general, the brother of the emperor of today's Great Wei, and his identity determines the oath he makes, which itself is extremely agitating.
Moreover, before today's battle, many Wei troops knew what kind of situation they were facing today.
As Cao Zhen said, today they have been forced to a desperate situation by Mi Yang.
As the generals of the various departments, if the general does not reduce the rate, it is impossible for them to fall.
In this case, they have only one way to fight to the death.
Whoever is a soldier must have blood in his heart.
And when a bloody person is cornered, he will take the act of trapping the beast and fighting.
Under the infection of Cao Zhen's oath, tens of thousands of Wei troops soon erupted into a burst of emotional shouts.
"Victory! Win! ”
The high-pitched shouts of tens of thousands of Wei troops made Cao Zhen smile on his face.
And the shouts of the Wei army soon reached the ears of tens of thousands of Han soldiers.
At this time, Zhao Yun had already led most of the Han army to join forces with Ding Feng and Liu Feng.
After hearing the strong shouts of the Wei army, not to mention Zhao Yun, it was Ding Feng and Liu Feng and other Han generals, all of whom had no fear on their faces.
Wars cannot be won by shouting, no matter how strong the fighting spirit of the Wei army is, they are just trapped beasts after all.
When he joined forces with Ding Feng and Liu Feng, Zhao Yun jumped in front of tens of thousands of Han troops with a spear in his hand.
The proud back of a white horse with a silver spear brought great confidence to the tens of thousands of Han troops behind him.
Because tens of thousands of Han soldiers know that the one standing in front of them now is Changshan Zhao Zilong.
After decades of conquest, Zhao Yun has left too many fantastical legends in the world.
Under the infection of many legends, the fighting spirit in the hearts of the Han army is also rising.
Just when the shouts of victory of tens of thousands of Wei troops were still in the sky between the two armies, bursts of passionate war drums also sounded in the phalanx of tens of thousands of Han troops.
Under the guidance of the sound of war drums, the phalanx of tens of thousands of Han troops moved again.
No matter how high the morale of the enemy in front is, there is only one task for tens of thousands of Han troops today - to move forward!
The march of tens of thousands of Han troops soon attracted the attention of tens of thousands of Wei troops.
In their eyes, the tens of thousands of Han troops in front of them shouted in front of them, and there was never a trace of hesitation on their faces.
Their faces were as calm as ever, and their steps were as firm as ever.
It was as if they had never heard their own fierce shouts of war intent in their ears.
Don't you care?
I just don't care!
Every time the tens of thousands of Han troops took a step forward, they took a step closer to the sound of tens of thousands of Wei troops.
But the strange thing is that whenever tens of thousands of Han troops get one step closer to the heroic sound, the heroic momentum of the sound will be correspondingly weaker.
When tens of thousands of Han soldiers stepped on the corpses of the Wei army on the ground and entered the thirty steps range of the Wei army's phalanx, they still seemed to be able to engulf the fierce sound of the Han army, and this moment was almost weakened to a faint sound.
The Han army's ignorance made tens of thousands of Wei soldiers feel a little uneasy in their hearts.
The uneasiness in my heart will inevitably affect the morale that has just been boosted.
Cao Zhen, who noticed that his morale had dropped again, looked at Zhao Yun with undisguised resentment in his eyes.
In the first battle of Dangyang, it was the man in front of him, who entered and exited seven times in and out of the encirclement of tens of thousands of Wei troops, and killed more than a dozen Wei generals in a row!
It's just that in addition to resentment, Cao Zhen inevitably has a little fear in his eyes.
But Cao Zhen quickly suppressed the complicated emotions in his heart.
Because the tens of thousands of Han troops that are constantly advancing are already close at hand!
When tens of thousands of Han troops entered within ten steps of the Wei army's formation, Cao Zhen gave timely command.
Under the command of Cao Zhen, thousands of pikemen in front of the Wei army's formation raised their spears one after another and stabbed forward suddenly.
Facing the sudden attack of dense spears, the Han army, under the command of Zhao Yun, raised the shield in his hand in time to guard in front of him.
When thousands of spears collided with the sturdy shield, there was immediately a piercing sound of iron colliding.
After the piercing sound of iron colliding, it heralded the official beginning of the tragic battle between the two armies.
When the shield hand blocked the Wei army's spears, thousands of Han saber soldiers hidden in the array rushed out of the array under the leadership of Ding Feng.
They followed Ding Feng and leaned through the gap in the forest of spears, and after passing through the forest of guns, they suddenly jumped to their feet, brandished their broadswords and slashed at the Wei spearmen in front of them.
The sudden attack of the Han saber soldiers surprised the pikemen of the Wei army standing in the front row.
But they are well-trained, and they also react quickly according to their body's instincts.
They quickly threw away the spears in their hands, drew their sabers at their waists, and engaged the Han troops who entered them.
Although some Wei troops died under the blades of the Han army because of the surprise of thousands of Han saber soldiers, most of the Wei troops still reacted quickly and blocked the first wave of small attacks of the Han army in time.
It's just that Zhao Yun didn't think that he would be able to break through the Wei army's defense line with this wave of small offensives.
His real purpose was to make it possible for the Wei army to stop the Han army from using spears.
Obviously, Zhao Yun's purpose was achieved.
Now that the goal has been achieved, Zhao Yun naturally will not hesitate.
With the waving of the command flag in his hand, the front row of the Han army threw the shields in their hands to the ground, and then swung their knives and rushed directly towards the Wei army array in front.
The Han army in the front row moved, and the Han army in the back row immediately followed, row after row, and the whole army!
Soon after, tens of thousands of Han troops turned into a raging torrent and launched a general attack on the Wei army's infantry formation.
The Han army, which was not afraid of death, under the leadership of generals such as Ding Feng, Liu Feng, Zhang Wei, and Wei Yan, tore apart the first front of the Wei army in a short time.
The first front of the Wei army was torn apart, which meant that the two armies had entered the bloodiest and fiercest short-range battle.
A soldier of the Han and Wei armies fell to the ground with a wail under the slashing of the enemy's sharp blades.
Whenever a soldier on both sides fell, another comrade would rush forward and take his place to continue the fight with the enemy.
As the battle continued to rage, not only did the battlefield have a terrifying wail from hell, but also pieces of bloody stumps and severed arms were flying sideways.
The number of stumps and broken arms was so large that some even obscured the sight of the Han and Wei armies.
Under the obstruction of vision, the Han and Wei armies could only rely on their physical instincts to constantly swing their swords and slash forward.
Tireless, and fearless.
For the Wei army, if they retreat today, then they will probably not be able to return home.
It was precisely because of this thought in their hearts that they were able to temporarily forget the panic of the cutting off of the grain route and muster up their fighting spirit to fight with the Han army.
But for the Han army, why wasn't today's battle to go home?
Zhao Yun looked at the tragic fighting situation on the battlefield, and he did not immediately raise a gun to join the battlefield.
On the one hand, he knew that in the brutal white-knuckle combat, the effect of individual bravery was not very great.
On the other hand, it's because
Thinking of this, Zhao Yun looked to the south, which was where Wuzhang Yuan was located.
When Zhao Yun looked at Wuzhang Plain, above Wuzhang Plain, there was also a general wearing Mingguang armor, who was watching the battle situation in Weibei from afar.
This general, who else will there be besides Mi Yang?
Mi Yang stood on top of many Wei corpses, and behind him were a group of Wei prisoners kneeling and asking to surrender.
Ding Feng, who had arranged everything not long after, came to Mi Yang's side with a strong bow.
"General!"
Looking at the strong bow that Ding Feng bowed over, and then looked at the tens of thousands of Han troops with anticipation in the eyes of the surrounding forest, Mi Yang took the strong bow from Ding Feng's hand without the slightest hesitation.
After holding the strong bow in his hand, Mi Yang took out a rocket, and then he suddenly turned around and put the rocket in his hand on the bowstring, aiming at the earthy yellow flag fluttering in the wind in his eyes.
Want to go home?
But this is my big man's home!
Mi Yang, who sneered in his heart, released the rocket with the spark of the stars.
The rocket slashed through the air at a very fast speed, passed through the banner with the word "Great Wei" written on it, and finally nailed it to the gate of the Wei army camp.
When the spark on the rocket met the gate that had long been doused with flammable materials, a moment later, the wooden gate was gradually surrounded by a fire.
Moreover, this fire is still spreading in all directions at an extremely fast speed, with a tendency to envelop the entire Wei military camp.
Soon after, the Wei army camp, which was the last sustenance in the hearts of tens of thousands of Wei troops, would be completely plunged into a sea of fire.
Looking at the fire that gradually spread in his eyes, Mi Yang couldn't help but laugh heartily.
The defeat of tens of thousands of Wei troops has been achieved.
Guanzhong, he got it back for Dahan!
