Chapter 27, The Game (2)
Everyone was a little surprised, although the equipment of the officers and soldiers was better than theirs, but after all, their own side had a six-fold advantage in strength, and this quantitative gap was enough to make up for the lack of equipment.
After all, Zhang Ning brought a batch of ordnance with him on this trip, and the fully equipped soldiers among them were close to 20,000.
Bocai was also a little confused, so he looked at Zhang Ning.
"The Holy Maiden thinks, is our army advancing?"
To advance is to confront the officers and soldiers.
Zhang Ning pondered for a moment, then shook his head and said: "Now that the movements of the official army are unknown, it is better to defend for the time being and brake quietly." ”
After what happened last time, she felt that the man would not be so impulsive, and finally decided to play it safe.
Soldiers, the way to survive and die, must not be overlooked.
One of the generals couldn't help but protest: "Holy Maiden, our army is several times larger than the official army, why should we be afraid of them? ”
Others chimed in.
At this time, Bocai said: "It is precisely because our army has the advantage of strength that we should fight steadily and steadily, and not give the officers and soldiers a chance to take advantage of it." ”
Although he doesn't know why his saintess is so cautious, as a high-level Yellow Turban, he unconditionally supports Zhang Ning.
The main general gave orders, and although the generals still had opinions, they did not dare to speak again, so the phalanx of the Yellow Turban Army put on a defensive formation.
"Hey, this yellow turban thief didn't dare to fight."
Zhang Fei was a little puzzled, at first when he heard Guo Jia's advance order, he thought that a bloody battle was about to start.
A moment later, the sound of war drums in my ears suddenly changed, it was the order to attack.
At the same time, the command flags everywhere also showed offensive commands.
Although the generals of the various departments were suspicious, they did not dare to disobey the military order, so they ordered to move forward.
Unconsciously, the distance between the two front armies had come to the range of the bow and crossbow.
Groups of archers marched forward in an orderly manner, advancing behind the shield soldiers in the front row, bows and arrows, ready to attack.
"Put!"
With the order of the flag officer, the bows and crossbows that were already on the string galloped out like wild horses that had escaped the reins, and then fell like raindrops, and the screams of the Yellow Turban Army soon sounded in front of the Yellow Turban Army.
Not to be outdone, they also sent crossbowmen to fight back, and for a time arrows rained down on the plains.
After a few waves of arrows, as the order flag waved again, the officers and troops launched a tidal attack.
Zhang Fei took the lead, facing the rain of arrows and slaughtering into the enemy formation, killing several people with a sweep.
His spearmen were greatly encouraged to see that the main general was not afraid of death, and even though people were constantly falling to the ground during the charge, they still went forward one after another.
The sound of shouting and killing resounded in the sky, and the sound of soldiers colliding could be heard everywhere.
Blood splattered, severed limbs flew sideways, and the gray ground gradually reddened......
"One will succeed and ten thousand bones will wither, and the ancients will not deceive me."
Guo Jia and his people rode a carriage to a small hillside, from which they could roughly see the battlefield situation below.
What he saw was that the two torrents were converging little by little, and there was a faint shout in his ears...... Behind the blood is endless blood and bones.
Xi Zhong said indifferently: "Since you have set them as bait, you can't have compassion. ”
The tactics have been carried out, and no matter whether it is right or wrong, he is worried that Guo Jia will not be able to bear to change his tactics for a while.
Xun Yu shook his head and sighed: "This move is too dangerous, if it is discovered, our army will definitely be in a dilemma." ”
He had already roughly guessed Guo Jia's strategy, and with his character, he would never use this tactic, although he could decide the battle in one battle, it was also full of crises.
"He can't see through it."
Guo Jia smiled, and then looked at the herald on the side.
"Order, let the second echelon, the third echelon follow, if there is a retreat, behead!"
"Whoa!"
——
"Report ...... The enemy broke through the first line of defense of our army. ”
"Report ...... The enemy broke through the second line of defense of our army. ”
"Report ......"
In the Yellow Turban Central Military Department, reports of defeat continue to come.
Zhang Ningliu's eyebrows frowned slightly, did the officers and soldiers really plan to rush into battle with lightning speed?
"The official army is so impulsive, it must be the main force to be exhausted, general, send troops!"
"That's right, give the officers and soldiers a little bit of power, take a look......"
The generals have spoken.
Bo Cai subconsciously looked at Zhang Ning, in his opinion, the offensive of the official army was so fierce, it should have pressed the treasure capital.
If they don't exert any more force, let the officers and troops break through to the Chinese army, and their defense lines will all collapse.
Zhang Ning put away his thoughts and said indifferently: "Transfer the soldiers and horses on the left and right wings to the front army, and then transfer the rear army to guard the two wings." ”
"Whoa!"
With an order, the overall formation of the yellow scarf suddenly changed dramatically, and the front, left and right were strictly guarded, only the back was ......
Zhang Ning naturally thought about this problem, and said: "Send scouts to expand the search area, and we must not let the enemy take advantage of the situation to go around the back of our army." ”
She is well aware of the flaws in this formation, but if she does not limit the offensive of the official army, they will be defeated sooner or later.
As the saying goes, one blow, then decline, three and exhaustion.
Only by blocking these waves of offensives of the officers and troops, it is time for them to counterattack.
However, what Zhang Ning didn't expect was that an army had already circled their rear a few days ago.
"General, the enemy army has changed formations, do you want to send troops?"
On a high mountain ten miles away from the Yellow Turban, several figures were watching the changes in the Yellow Turban formation.
Guan Yu stood with a knife in his hand, stretched out his hand to caress his long beard, and recalled the scene a few days ago in his mind.
"Yun Chang, I have an extremely important task for you."
"You can set off with your troops and horses and come here to hibernate ......"
"Remember, you must wait until the Yellow Turbans are on a full-scale counteroffensive before you can send troops."
This is what Guo Jia said to him a few days ago.
From Guan Yu's point of view, the Yellow Turban Army has only changed its defensive formation and has not yet launched a counterattack.
"Wait!"
"But ......"
"Disobedient, slash!"
The general suddenly did not dare to say more.
The fighting on the plains continued, but as the Yellow Turbans strengthened their defensive lines, the offensive of the officers and troops had been contained.
Zhang Fei and his troops and horses have been disconnected from most of them, because it is his troops that have rushed the most fiercely, and now they are under siege.
"General, we are surrounded."
The general rushed to Zhang Fei's side covered in blood, obviously suffering heavy injuries.
Zhang Fei looked around, and his subordinates were falling one after another.
He gritted his teeth and roared, "Kill ......"
Military orders are like mountains.
I don't know how long it took, more than half of the 500 soldiers led by Zhang Fei had been killed or wounded, and their offensive had completely stalled.
Whining~
A voice came suddenly.
This is...... Mingjin's order to withdraw his troops.
Zhang Fei glared angrily.
"Why did you withdraw?"
"General, withdraw."
But the generals were pardoned, because they could no longer rush.
"Kill me out."
Zhang Fei roared angrily, swept the snake spear in his hand, swept away the surrounding enemy troops, and then turned the horse's head.
At the same time, the troops and horses of the Yingchuan Army also retreated like a tide......
"Report ...... The officers and troops began to retreat. ”
