Chapter 593: The arrogant soldiers will be defeated
The morning sun rose, the Han military camp turned into ashes, and the soldiers gathered on the bank of Jishui in embarrassment, looking at the billowing black smoke and stunned.
"Hunting geese all day long, being pecked by geese!" Wei Yan clenched the handle of the knife, gritted his teeth and said, "It's a certain carelessness." ”
Kou Feng, who came to ask for help, said angrily: "Cao Zhenxiao'er dares to attack, if he doesn't return the color, he will laugh at no one in our army, let the last general go to call the battle!"
King Gongsun hugged his fists and said, "General Wei, let me take my iron cavalry to break through the lair of the Wei army." ”
After King Gongsun surrendered, Zhuge Liang selected the Xianbei army to form a cavalry, equipped with saddles and other equipment, and the combat power increased greatly, with Huang Quan as the main commander and King Gongsun as the general, he had long wanted to try the power of the recruits, but he had not been able to wait for the opportunity.
Wei Yan frowned slightly and looked at Huang Quan: "What do you think of Huang joining the army?" ”
Huang Quan said: "Cao Zhen attacked the camp, by surprise, the retreating troops must be prepared, and the general must not act rashly." ”
While deliberating, the deputy general Hu Ji counted the men and turned back and announced: "More than 500 people were killed and wounded, and all three lieutenants were killed. ”
"If you don't take revenge, how can you command the troops?" Wei Yan was furious, picked up his knife and got on his horse, and shouted: "The two generals will call for a battle with a certain general, and Weidu will gather the remnants of the army and return temporarily." ”
Huang Quan persuaded: "Cao Zhen is good at using soldiers, and the general thinks twice." ”
was calculated by a junior, where could Wei Yan hang on his face, and sneered: "Why should Cao Zhen'er be afraid? Something will be broken. ”
Huang Quan said: "If the general wants to fight, we can respond later, just in case." ”
Wei Yan then ordered Hu Ji to send the wounded soldiers back, and Huang Quan came later, and first led the troops with Kou Feng to fight Cao Zhen, to be ashamed.
People and horses came to the Wei army camp, Kou Feng stepped forward to call the battle, only to see the camp gate open, the Wei army rushed out, the lineup was very neat, and the crossbowmen shot the formation.
The two armies faced each other, and Cao Zhen laughed and said, "After waiting for a few months, are you finally willing to fight?" ”
Kou Feng was furious, obviously it was the Wei army that insisted on not fighting, but instead came to ridicule, slapped the horse out, and shouted: "You are waiting for the traitorous party to bully the king, and today you will eliminate harm for the country!" ”
Cao Zhen snorted coldly: "Who will kill this thief?" ”
Before the words fell, a dancing knife next to him was killed, it was the general Luo Ping, who was also the military general selected by Cao Zhen during his military training in Jizhou.
The two fought in front of the battle for more than ten times, Luo Ping couldn't stop it, turned the horse and left, Kou Feng chased after him, chased after him obliquely, and shouted: "Traitor, die!" ”
Luo Ping was flustered, and in the panic, he smashed his blade at Kou Feng and shouted: "General Cao, save me!" ”
Kou Feng raised his spear and unslashed his blade, and his mount rushed like a storm, and before Luo Ping could turn around, he stabbed him in the left rib with a deep sigh and knocked him off his horse.
"Leave ...... under the gun"
In the Wei army's array, Xiahou Ba heard the sound and killed, but it was too late, he was furious, and the horizontal knife slashed towards Kou Wei.
Kou Wei slashed a hand, his spirit was greatly lifted, and he turned his horse to Xiahou Ba again, and in the face of this knife, he did not avoid it, and raised his gun to parry!
Bang –
In the midst of a loud noise, the two mounted men stood up, raising their hooves and neighing.
Kou Wei's arms were numb, and he was secretly frightened in his heart, and he turned his horse aside, but Xiahou Ba didn't say much to him, and he danced the knife to urge the horse to kill again.
Kou Feng raised his gun to greet him, and the two fought in front of the battle, and in the blink of an eye, they killed more than 30 times, Kou Feng gradually felt invincible, and left with a false shot.
"Dog thief, come here!" Xiahou Ba also wanted to take revenge, and followed closely.
"Young man, Hugh is rampant!" Wei Yan had already gathered momentum for a long time, urging him to step forward to stop Xiahou Ba.
Xiahou Ba knew that Wei Yan was brave and didn't dare to be careless, so he dialed the horse to fight with him, and the two fought for more than ten times, but after all, they were still defeated by Wei Yan, and they fled to the side.
Wei Yan was about to chase after him, when he suddenly laughed and said, "This kind of carving insect trick also wants to deceive Wei?" ”
Cao Zhen saw that Wei Yan saw through the plan to lure the enemy, and snorted coldly: "Look at me to welcome you!" ”
"Don't say that Wei Yan bullies the small," Wei Yan hooked his finger at Xiahou Ba, who turned around in the distance, "You two go together!" ”
Cao Zhen roared, raised his gun to fight Wei Yan, and the two fought, and suddenly the drums in the Wei military camp sounded.
Boom Boom –
At the same time, on both sides of the camp gate, the horses' hooves made a muffled sound, and the ambush soldiers were exhausted, and in a blink of an eye, they rushed to the front.
"Defend against the enemy!" Kou Fengzheng was now watching the battle, and was shocked when he saw this situation, and hurriedly ordered the soldiers to meet the enemy.
However, the cavalry of the Wei army came very quickly, and immediately fired arrows in unison, and the two wings were in chaos, and the two cavalry rushed into the rear army on the left and right.
"Kill!" Xiahou Ba had been preparing for a long time, and when he heard the sound of drums, he led the elite cavalry to pass Wei Yan and rushed straight to the Han camp.
"Good boy, sneak attack again?"
Wei Yan was furious, but he couldn't help it for a while, he was entangled by Cao Zhen, and he was so angry that he roared again and again.
At this time, Cao Tai on the left of the Wei army and Wang Ling on the right led the troops to kill, Xiahou Ba rushed to kill head-on, Kou Feng couldn't parry alone, and the Han army was completely chaotic.
Xiahou Ba rushed to kill in the chaotic army, rushing left and right, as if entering a no-man's land, this time he raised his eyebrows, and felt his blood boiling, as if his strength was several times higher than usual, and the enemy army fled in all directions.
Wei Yan was furious, fought hard to kill Cao Zhen with a few knives, and rushed back to the formation to support, but at this time, the formation of men and horses was in chaos, and the two armies were fighting, so he had to rescue Kou Wei and lead the remnants to retreat.
The Wei army won another victory, all of them greatly increased their morale, Cao Zhen gave an order, all the generals came out, waved the army to cover the kill, and the Han army was defeated and fled.
When he was leaving, the road was dusty, King Gongsun led the troops to arrive, and lined up against the enemy from afar.
Wei Yan returned to the front of the battle in embarrassment, his face full of shame, and sighed: "I regret not listening to the words of joining the army." ”
"The king once said that the new generation of the Cao clan's clan children, only Cao Zhen can be a general, and it is so!" Huang Quan sighed, gathered the remnants and returned to the camp.
When Zhuge Liang was leaving, he set up three large camps in the north and south of Jishui, fighting each other, and did not want Wei Yan's main formation to be attacked by Cao Zhen, although the loss was not large, but it was a great blow to morale.
Wei Yan returned to the camp, simply withdrew the front camp, leaving only the camp on both sides of the water, set up a pontoon bridge on the water, reorganized the soldiers and horses, and waited for the opportunity to take revenge.
Before waiting for the opportunity, Zhuge Liang had returned to Chenliu and led the troops to the front of the army, and the generals welcomed into the tent, Zhuge Liang looked at Wei Yan and said coldly: "General Wei, can you be guilty?" ”
Wei Yan's old face turned red, and he knelt down and said: "The last general used his troops improperly, and he was not good for his division, so he was willing to be punished." ”
Zhuge Liang said: "I don't blame you for guarding the camp, but I shouldn't send troops again!" ”
Wei Yan hugged his fists and said: "If it weren't for Cao Zhen's sneak attack, the last general would not have rushed to send troops." ”
Zhuge Liang sighed: "Confrontation for days, there must be omissions, this is human nature, but General Wei has the courage to fight again, and Cao Zhen's plan should not be." ”
Wei Yan frowned slightly, bowed his head and said nothing, but he didn't think much of Zhuge Liang's opinion in his heart, because the generals were timid because of a temporary defeat and didn't dare to fight again, how could they command the troops?
Zhuge Liang shook the feather fan lightly, looked around at the generals, and said slowly: "Art of War: Proud soldiers will be defeated!" General Wei lost a battle, and went to fight, but there is a heart of underestimating the enemy, recently our army has won many victories, several victories, the battalion soldiers are inevitably arrogant, and the military spirit is impetuous, this is a taboo with soldiers. Yuan Shao, who is far away, died in Guandu, and Cao Cao, who is near, walked in Nanyang, all of them were defeated because of this, not only the chief, but also everyone should take this as a warning to guard against arrogance and rashness. As the king said when he ascended the throne: The Cao Party has not been destroyed, the Han family has not prospered, and we still need to work hard! ”
