Chapter 115: Thousands of Troops Avoid White Robes (Happy New Year)
Three thousand armored soldiers are equivalent to three thousand trapped camps.
Because the trapping camp is also a heavily armored foot soldier, and in terms of cohesion, the Yellow Gate soldiers are even stronger.
Although the grassroots are not from the Huangmenting clan, the upper-level officers are basically the first clan soldiers under the command of Shen Chen to protect the clan all the way south.
They were all young and vigorous young men back then, but now more than ten years later, the age of these officers is generally between thirty and forty years old.
However, the years have not erased their memories, and the hatred of Cao Cao who slaughtered their relatives and forced them to leave their hometowns and moved back to Nanyang from Xuzhou has never dissipated.
After Shen Chen came back, the significance to this army was like Gao Shun in the camp, Ju Yi in the first dead soldiers, Wang Ping in Wudang Feijun, and the whole team had a soul.
He looked at the densely packed soldiers around him, everyone was very familiar, his relatives, foreign children, and his siblings, such as his cousin Shen Tao, who remembered the past when Cao Cao instructed Cao Ren to kill his parents and brothers.
Shen Tao said to Shen Chen: "Report to the general!" ”
"Say."
Shen Chen rode on the jade horse.
Shen Tao raised his head and roared loudly: "There are 500 people in the whole song of the first word, and the armor is finished!" ”
Shen Chen swept his eyes and looked at the past, at present, there are three thousand Huangmen soldiers, divided into six songs, each song has five hundred people, and the war dead have their own substitutes, each song is A, B, C, D, E, and G.
Jiazi Qu is the elite of the elite of the five songs, and at present, Qu Junhou is Shen Tao, and he saw that this team reacted extremely quickly, almost before Shen Chen arrived here, and before they could distinguish between the enemy and me, they had already begun to fight in Jia.
The armor piercing of heavy infantry is extremely cumbersome, but Shen Tao is a little troubled, so he immediately ordered the soldiers to prepare, worthy of the name of elite.
"Good!"
Shen Chen nodded with satisfaction and shouted, "Line up!" ”
"Line up!"
Shen Tao turned around and gave an order.
The five hundred people of Jiaziqu immediately trotted in front of Shen Chen and began to line up a phalanx in a neat manner.
Almost after they lined up, the B-character song, the C-character song, the T-character song, the E-character song, and the Geng-shaped song, the five Qu Junhou ran in front of Shen Chen one after another, and said loudly: "Report to the general, there are 500 people in the B (C, D, E, G) songs, and the first is finished!" ”
"Line up!"
Shen Chen shouted again.
As soon as he gave the order, a short and rapid order and a sharp whistle sounded.
Groups of soldiers marched forward in a neat row, bows and knives unsheathed, and there was a sound of the hula and clattering of iron-armored leaves everywhere, and they lined up in front of Shen Chen in accordance with the sequence.
Three thousand people is not a lot, and in later generations, when a meeting of four or five thousand students in the playground of a random high school was held, there were more people than them, and the formation was denser than them.
But in this kind of fully armed, with swords, guns, bows and crossbows, and the majestic momentum exuded by the whole body, it is by no means comparable to the students' morning exercises.
"Let's go!"
Shen Chen looked at the army of silver armor in front of him, raised his tiger courage sword high, and pointed to the north: "Majestic, high-spirited." Kill thieves and protect the family. ”
"Majestic, high-spirited. Kill thieves and protect the family. ”
"玁狁 (xian, yun) hole blazing, drumming its boring. Out of the car Peng Peng, the flag is not young. ”
"Dignified and dignified. The body is forward, and there is nothing to do. ”
"Dye my spear with the blood of the enemy. With the head of the son, sacrifice to our country. ”
"Majestic, high-spirited. The knife is unsheathed, and the bowstring is open. ”
"Bo Phi Pi Ko, the dog is terrified. Kill all of them, and collect my corpse. ”
"Dignified and dignified. Returning, wild. ”
"The Son of Heaven ordered me to be in the other side of the city. The uniform of the common force is to ensure the well-being of the people. ”
Three thousand armored soldiers sang at the same time.
Since the Spring and Autumn Period, the poems of such expeditions have been recorded in the national customs of various countries.
The most famous ones are "No Clothes" and "Drumming".
Shen Chen imitated the ancient poetry and made "Heroic", which tells the story of a soldier who obeys the call and defends his family and the country.
At this moment, many soldiers were high-spirited, obeyed Shen Chen's call, attacked the Cao army, and dominated China!
In the sound of such a loud poem, the soldiers marched forward majestically, their armor on their bodies, and every step was as heavy as a mountain and river, stepping on the earth, making a huge sound of clinking.
The sky is full of dust and singing.
Shen Chen rode at the front of the team, holding a sharp tiger knife in his hand, leading the soldiers all the way north.
Along the way, there were many scattered Cao troops who were scattered by Zhuge Liang, but at this moment, seeing the enemy's momentum, where did they dare to approach? They scattered one after another, and even a glance made them feel as if they were offending a group of killing gods.
"What's going on?"
Li Tong, who was besieged by Gan Ning's army and Zhang Xiu's army in the distance, was riding on horseback, and suddenly heard a singing voice in the distance.
There is no particularly beautiful rhythm in that song, and even the speed of singing is very slow, it seems that every sentence is slow, and it is extremely low and pathetic, only giving people a peculiar feeling - murderous!
Li Tong can feel the terrible murderous aura from the poems. Because the content of this poem is just a simple statement of one thing.
The enemy is coming.
We marched majestically towards the enemy.
The enemy was fierce, we beat gongs and drums, lined up in formations, and the continuous banners seemed to have no end.
The war began.
With firm steps, we charged forward against the enemy.
Stain my spear with the blood of my enemies, and sacrifice the decline of my country with the heads of my enemies.
The knife is unsheathed, and the bowstring is open.
Attack the enemy fiercely, beat the enemy to the ground, wait until the war is won, kill them all, and then collect the corpses of your comrades and bury them in the mountains.
When he returned from the battle, the wilderness was vast.
We obeyed the orders of the Son of Heaven to guard the Quartet, work together to defend the border, and from then on pacify the country and the people are healthy!
At that moment, Li Tong felt the feelings of protecting the family and defending the country contained in this poem, as well as the chilling coldness in the plain tone.
He anxiously searched everywhere, but there was nothing to see around him except for the vast array of enemy and enemy soldiers.
The arrows flew overhead, and all that was left to my ears was the roar, the clatter, the screams, the wails, the clashing of blades, the rustling of armor, and the loud singing that loomed closer and closer.
Li Tong unconsciously panicked, I don't know why, he always felt a kind of fear.
The song also alarmed the Gan Ning army and Zhang Xiujun who were besieging Li Tong's army, Zhang Xiu was riding on a horse, and his cavalry was also in array, about 6,000 people.
From the first year of Jian'an, that is, in 196 AD, Zhang Ji took him to Nanyang, and now fourteen years have passed, and Zhang Xiu has also reached the age when his uncle died, and his sideburns have grown gray hair.
Because he did not surrender to Cao Cao and did not follow Cao Cao to the bitter cold land of Liaodong, Zhang Xiu avoided the fate of illness and death, but he never knew this.
So when he saw the one that suddenly appeared in the south, he sang "Majestic, high-spirited." Kill thieves and protect the family and state", Zhang Xiu turned his head and said to Jia Xu beside him: "Uncle." ”
"Huh?"
Jia Xu didn't look at him, there was no superfluous expression on his old face, he just looked into the distance.
Zhang Xiu asked, "If I raid this army, what are the odds?" ”
"Less than 10 percent."
"Isn't there a slight chance of winning?"
"We are all old, even the cavalry soldiers under your command are old, how long can we kill?"
"Yes, we're all old."
"Why, you still seem to be a little unconvinced?"
"I almost surrendered to Cao Cao back then, but it was Shen Chen who got in the way."
"yes."
Jia Xu sighed: "But he has grown far to the extent that he can make Cao Cao frightened today, the future is his, we are all old, so we can only snuggle up to the strong and survive for a long time." ”
The vast earth seemed to blow a violent southeast wind, and the wind made the scattered fallen leaves turn into rootless weeds, flying towards the distant sky.
Gan Ning killed another enemy, and while the surrounding enemies were still surrounded, he turned around on his horse, and saw the team on the horizon in the distance.
Compared with Zhang Xiu and his dying Xiliang army, Gan Ning, who was just forty years old, obviously hasn't given birth to much oldness.
He is a general, and this age is the golden age of the general, and he is unmatched.
The three thousand Yellow Gate armor soldiers in the rear lined up in a neat military formation like bulldozers, slowly advancing towards the battlefield.
Gan Ningle turned his horse's head, raised the steel knife in his hand and waved it continuously, cooperating with several guards to kill the surrounding enemies, and then shouted loudly: "Herald, herald, where are you dead!" ”
"Report!"
One of the guards shouted, "General, they're all dead." ”
"Then you are a herald!"
Gan Ning said loudly: "I'll cover you and rush out, ask Deng Zhao what's going on, I didn't hear the order from the military division." ”
At this time, Gan Ning's infantry had already been strangled with Li Tong's infantry.
Li Tong took a circular formation, Gan Ning personally led the guards to rush into battle, the two sides were staggered, and the land with a radius of 0.5 square kilometers was full of enemy and enemy soldiers slashing back and forth.
In order to facilitate communication, Zhuge Liang set up drum platforms in the armies, and once he gave an order, the order would be conveyed to all directions through a special drum beat.
The sudden arrival of the Yellow Gate soldiers obviously surprised Gan Ning extremely much, because if the Yellow Gate soldiers were dispatched by Zhuge Liang, he would receive a sound signal from the drums, so that it would be convenient for the front-line generals to respond or cooperate.
But he had been fighting on the front line for so long and had not heard any transmission, so Gan Ning was extremely puzzled by the arrival of the Yellow Gate soldiers, even if he hadn't seen this team, he could tell it by singing alone.
So in the midst of the siege, Gan Ning covered a personal guard to fight his way out of the encirclement, but at this time, a team of knights galloped and launched a fierce charge towards the dense crowd.
"Kill!"
"Run, run, run."
"Ahhh
The sound of fierce fighting, the cowardice of fear, and the wail of pain on the battlefield continued.
Shen Chen rode on a war horse, one step ahead of the soldiers behind him, and rushed over against Li Tong's outer front with his personal guards and many disciples.
The jade horse did not rush to kill blindly, but wandered around the periphery, and joined forces with more than 50 personal guards, and quickly killed more than 100 Cao troops on the periphery, and just at this time, the personal guard sent by Gan Ning also came out of the crowd.
Originally, I thought that there was a chaotic battlefield in front of me, but I didn't expect that after coming out, my eyes were clear, and there were no more enemies within fifty meters around, only about a hundred and so dazed teammates.
"General Shen Shen!"
The guard saw the person clearly, his eyes lit up suddenly, and then he went back to the battlefield where he was still fighting, and shouted to Gan Ning, who was only more than twenty meters away from him, from a distance: "General, General Shen is back, ah!" ”
As soon as he finished speaking, a cold knife slashed at him in the crowd, cutting the guard to the ground, and the sound was naturally drowned in the surging crowd.
Li Tong's arrangement is a defensive formation with three layers inside and three layers outside, and the formation formed by five or six thousand foot soldiers is like a dense circle of ants, although the periphery was gradually scattered by the Gan Ning army, but the more people inside, the denser the people became.
In such a situation, everyone only pays attention to what is happening around them, even if there is a neat and loud singing less than 200 meters behind, they don't look at it, they don't dare to look at it.
Because once you are distracted, you will be stabbed with knives, axes, spears and spears at any time. Therefore, when everyone was buried in fighting with the enemies around them, few people noticed that a steely team gradually came to the periphery of Li Tong's army.
"Kill it!"
Shen Chen glanced at the battlefield, the outer battlefield was very chaotic, but the battlefield inside was quite tight, Li Tong still maintained a defensive formation, staring at the Gan Ning army.
Two more teams of Cao Jun came out next to him, and their mouths let out a high cry like a wolf's howl.
Shen Chen charged on his horse, the white cloak behind him was unfurled, and the tiger courage knife in his hand slashed a brilliant arc in the air, blocking a spearman who was stabbing diagonally in front of him, and then stabbed him with a stab, killing him.
And he had just killed that enemy, and there was a sneak attack on the side and rear almost at the same time, and at the moment when Shen Chen could draw his knife and come back, there was a ring-headed knife that slashed at him.
No one on such a battlefield would go head-to-head. Often, you've just killed an enemy on your front foot and you're stabbed with a knife from behind.
So experienced veterans will choose to fight back-to-back with trusted comrades-in-arms and cover each other's battles.
Shen Chen also has such teammates.
The disciple behind him, Shan Yi, roared angrily, and his burly body pressed towards the enemy who attacked Shen Chen like a small mountain, and the big knife in his hand slashed down on the head, and the terrifying force actually smashed the skull before that person stabbed Shen Chen.
In just a moment, there were fewer and fewer Cao troops around, and the soldiers of Gan Ning's army seemed to be liberated all of a sudden, and when Gan Ning himself rushed to kill again, he suddenly felt a lot more relaxed.
Looking at it again, there was no Cao Jun behind him, all of them were his own people, and about fifty meters away from him, more than fifty war horses were slashing and killing everywhere, and about a hundred meters away, a group of ironclad soldiers were moving forward with slow steps.
"Ah Chen?"
Gan Ning's eyes widened, and then he was ecstatic, and shouted loudly: "General Ah Shen! ”
"Xingba. Checkmate. ”
Shen Chen came on horseback, and before he could say it, he thought that he should be serious on the battlefield at this time, so he said in a deep voice: "I will lead the Huangmen soldiers over, defeat Li Tong first, and then support the Chinese army!" ”
"Good! What should I do? ”
Gan Ning asked.
Shen Chen looked around, the battlefield was actually very large, and his side only cleared out the Cao army of more than 100 meters around, about two or three hundred people.
Farther on, the enemy and our soldiers on both sides are still fighting.
After thinking about it, he said: "Capture the thief and capture the king first, I plan to rush straight into the middle with the yellow gate pawn and forcibly break through Li Tong's round formation, General Gan, please let your soldiers disperse first and let us in." ”
"I see, I'll rush with you later."
After Gan Ning finished speaking, he immediately said to the remaining twenty or so guards around him: "Who brought the whistle." ”
"I brought it."
"Blow it to me, let everyone disperse to both sides first, and let the Yellow Gate soldiers come in."
"Yui!"
The guards immediately felt the bone whistle and blew it in a characteristic rhythm.
Soon, captains at all levels, tun chiefs, and Qu Junhou all heard the unique whistle of the Ganning Army, and the sound came and went, and the army retreated one after another.
With their retreat, the surrounding Cao army suddenly relaxed, there was no enemy, and at this time, he raised his head again, and looked blankly at the surrounding Gan Ning army that was retreating like a tide, at a loss.
Immediately afterwards, Cao Jun, who was in the outermost area, turned his head to look at the south, and his eyes widened, and in his ears, the loud singing became clearer and clearer, and the huge sound resounded through the heavens and the earth.
The iron-like army slowly approached, and they were still singing, and the general at the front, riding a white horse and waving a white cloak.
"Kill!"
Approaching the periphery of Cao Jun, Shen Chen raised the Tiger Courage Sword in his hand and shouted angrily, and the jade horse under his crotch seemed to also feel his belligerent heart, his forelimbs and hooves were raised, and the person stood up, making a neighing sound.
"Kill!"
The three thousand Yellow Gate soldiers erupted into a huge roar at the same time, and the terrifying sound lasted for several miles.
The Yellow Gate soldier in the front row held the spear in his hand forward, and the silver spear tip and armor emitted a dazzling white light in the warm sun of early spring.
Since the Gan Ning army had retreated, as if with the support of the eldest brother, they ran to the sides and behind the Yellow Gate soldiers and followed them.
Cao Jun, who was at the front, felt a huge sense of oppression, looked at each other at a loss, and then slowly moved back.
"Array, array!"
Li Tong saw this scene in the distance and let out a hoarse cry, and a sharp whistle and a desolate trumpet sounded.
When the middle- and lower-ranking officers of the Cao Army on the periphery heard the order, they hurriedly shouted for the soldiers to form a formation.
But in just a moment's effort, the three thousand Yellow Gate soldiers led by Shen Chen had already killed in front of them, like a rumbling tank, ruthlessly crushing all the enemies.
"Woooo
"They're all armor, and they can't cut in."
"Ahh
"Run."
The moment the two sides came into contact was the moment when Cao Jun collapsed.
The Yellow Gate soldier didn't do anything, just raised the spear in his hand, approached it, and then stabbed hard.
Cao Jun was also stabbed.
The spear pierced the armor and made a sound of metal rubbing.
And then nothing happened.
They even wanted to stab at the front door, but they were desperate to find that they only needed to raise their hands and block them with their arms, and they couldn't cause any casualties at all.
So after paying more than 100 lives, Cao Jun finally couldn't bear it anymore and began to flee in all directions.
The Cao army on the periphery collapsed at the first touch, causing a chain reaction in an instant, and the surrounding Cao army retreated one after another and fled to both sides.
Shen Chen and his guards rushed to the front, their white cloaks and silver armor, like the call of death, crushing any enemy who dared to stand in front of them into powder.
The surrounding Cao army all looked at him with fearful eyes, as well as the terrifying iron army behind him, and then ran to the edges of both sides without looking back, allowing Shen Chen to lead the Yellow Gate soldiers, still like a rumbling tank, rushing towards Li Tong's central army formation.
Famous teachers and generals are not imprisoned, and thousands of troops avoid white robes!
I may not be able to go back until the fifth and sixth days of the new year, so I will temporarily change it for the next few days, and when I go back, I will immediately resume updating 10,000 words a day. From October to December, I was still 10,000 a day, but the infection in January and the New Year were indeed more tormenting, and after it stabilized, I will try to keep it updated, and everyone will be patient and wait.
