Chapter 238: Skip the Temptation Part

A Yongjun scout with a banner on his back broke through the tent curtain and hurried into the Jingxing tent and reported loudly: "The main force of the rebels is out again!"

Jing Xing's face at this time was gloomy as water, Meng Su was wounded, Qi Mao and Han Pu were killed in battle, and the soldiers who followed him all the way to the south and the north are now losing more than a thousand, and the morale of the army is at a low level.

Jing Xing stood up and kept pacing in the tent, and could only give an order helplessly: "Order all departments to stick to the camp and help each other."

The Yong army and the Bingzhou army fought in a dignified array in the wilderness outside the city of Yuanxian County.

The commander of the left wing of the Bingzhou Army is Lang Zeqing, Jing Xing has also heard of his reputation, the army is called the old wolf, following Wang Rong to crisscross the three counties in the north, besieging Yanmen, and the soldiers can do nothing.

Although the right flank of the Bingzhou Army was weak, they had a large number of troops and could return to reinforcements in time.

And the Chinese army of the state army is even more tricky, its military formation is strict, and the front dispatch and command of the Chinese army is not even inferior to his own. This also led to the failure of the elite advance of the Yong army.

Although Jing Xing knew from the letter of the second prince that the Bingzhou Army was far from being comparable to the Northern Army, he still chose to use a dignified battle.

In the field battle, the left and right flank foot soldiers pinned down and broke through with cavalry, drove the rout to attack the Chinese army, and then the Chinese army broke through the middle formation with elites, defeated the Chinese army in one fell swoop, and killed the enemy's main general.

But at the beginning, the Yongjun lost the advantage of the cavalry because of the armored cavalry hidden by the Bingzhou army, allowing the cavalry to control the entire battlefield intelligence, and the idea of breaking through the two wings came to naught.

Then there was the front of the Bingzhou army, which actually blocked the onslaught of the elite Yongjun led by the three generals Mengsu, Qimao, and Han Pu.

What shocked Jing Xing even more was that generally speaking, after a major war, the army needed time to adjust its morale, but the army in front of him was regained in a short period of time.

Jing Xing had lost the courage to fight in the field with the Merge State Army, not only because the Merge State Army exceeded his expectations, but also because the army suffered heavy casualties.

It is even more because in order to meet the Bingzhou army, he has mobilized all the troops in Hedong to come.

If he is defeated, there will be almost no troops in the entire Hedong that can be used for field battles, and the troops of this Bingzhou army can even reach as far as Dun County, threatening Yu Yan.

At that time, the Jingshi will be shaken, not to mention that Jing Xing himself may be removed from office, and what is even more serious is that the already serious situation is likely to worsen.

The Xushan court has already endured too much turmoil, there is the Bashu Rebellion in the south, and the Liangzhou Rebellion in the west.

Moreover, at this time, the main force of the Yongjun army was still in the northwest, and the strength of the Yongjun army was stretched, so Jingxing could only choose to hold on and preserve the strength of the Yongjun army.

The Yongjun scouts left the big tent in a hurry, and also took Jingxing's military orders with them.

The curtain was lowered, and Jing Xing slowly took off the helmet on his head, revealing gray hair, and his straight back was bent. He's no longer young.

In the wilderness outside the city of Yuanxian County, a black wave has spread over the entire front.

The knights of the Bingzhou army with the banner of Xuan rode their horses and galloped wantonly in the wilderness outside the city of Yuanxian County, and the cavalry of the Yongjun army had already been driven away by them.

Yuan County is in front of tens of thousands of troops and states, like a flat boat under a storm.

The Yongjun camp outside Yuanxian County also inevitably had a commotion, but fortunately, Jing Xingshang was still in the army, and he had already issued orders to generals and colonels at all levels, and the commotion was quelled in just a moment.

Since the civil strife in Dayong, Mengsu has been highly respected in the army, and the generals and colonels of the army have greatly admired Mengsu's bravery.

But in a battle outside Yuanxian County, Qi Mao and Han Pu were killed, and even Meng Su was wounded.

Not to mention that the morale of the Yongjun has fallen to the bottom at this time, it is also much lower than when it went out this morning.

And not long after the state army rested at this moment, it regained its strength and even took the initiative to attack.

It made the Yongjun feel more pressure, Jingxing's choice was correct, if the Yongjun went out of the camp and fought in the field with the state army at this time, it would definitely be in a disadvantageous situation.

The Yongjun army lost the advantage of cavalry, and if it was defeated, it was afraid that it would be crushed for thousands of miles, and there were more than one of the Yongjun who could escape.

At that time, the entire Guanzhong will be exposed to the soldiers of the Bingzhou army.

The Yongjun camp outside the city of Yuan County is divided into the east village and the north village, the left and right formations are stationed in the east and north directions of the city of Yuan County, and the Chinese army of Jingxing is stationed in the city.

A herald walked into the castle tower of Yuan County.

When Jing Xing saw someone coming, he quickly stood up and asked, "Has the letter been delivered?"

The herald did not have time to rest, and hurriedly replied, "The messenger has gone south, and the rebel cavalry has not found any trace of our messenger."

"The rebels have begun their assault on our camp!"

Just when the herald reported to Jingxing, outside the city wall, the tsunami-like shouting of killing had reached Jingxing's ears through the walls of the city tower.

Jingxing's face changed, he hugged the iron claw in his arms, and walked out of the city tower quickly.

As soon as he got out of the city tower, Jing Xing was shocked by the scene in front of him.

On the periphery of the Yongjun camp, there were black helmets and tassels, and countless black flags were erected in the crowd, and the earth-shattering shouts of killing came from the mouths of those rebels.

The sharp spears and halberds formed a forest of spears and halberds one after another, and the state army was at its peak, and the army was slowly coming like a forest, but it was moving rapidly in front of the Yongjun army's camp, and the invasion was like fire.

The black wave frantically slapped on the Yongjun camp, and every impact inevitably splashed countless red waves.

Jing Xingyao looked at the Xuan-colored banner in the great array of the Bingzhou army, his heart was terrified, and he said angrily, "Is this Wang Rong a madman?"

Wang Rong actually skipped the temptation link directly and launched a strong attack on the Yongjun camp.

Under the dark color, Wang Rong seemed to feel something, and looked at the city tower on the wall of Yuan County from afar.

"————"

A sharp wooden whistle sounded from the formation of the state army.

The sergeants in the Yongjun camp couldn't help but tremble, and after fighting so far, most of the Yongjun had a sense of fear at the terrifying scream.

Because whenever that wooden whistle sounded, there would always be a state army rushing towards them, bringing them death.

The rebels in front of him are wave after wave, as if they are endless, and they can't help but make people desperate.

"Boom! Boom! Boom!"

Dozens of huge war drums were beaten by the shirtless soldiers of the Bingzhou Army's personal guard battalion, and the passionate drums spread throughout every military formation in the Bingzhou Army's large array.

"Bang!"

The huge crashing wood slammed into the wall of the Yongjun camp under the impetus of the military wrestlers of Bingzhou, and the giant wood slammed into the wall fiercely, making a deafening loud noise.

The sergeant of the Yongjun army on the wall of the wall was almost unsteady on his feet, and the sergeant of the Bingzhou army pushing the flying ladder quickly set up the ladder.

Countless soldiers and soldiers gathered under the black banner and poured up the wall along the ladder.

Jing Xing did not think that the Yong army would suffer defeat in the great battle in the wilderness, so the Yong army's camp was not built too strongly, and Jing Xing did not have time for soldiers to strengthen the camp.

The weak wall was quickly deformed by the impact of the wood.

"Boom—"

A walled wall finally couldn't withstand the impact of the giant tree, and fell to the ground with a bang, kicking up a large cloud of dust.

Before the dust cleared, the warriors of the Bingzhou army in iron armor and armed with spears and halberds and shields had already swarmed in from the gap.

The Yongjun behind the wall had not yet reacted, and was rushed to pieces.

But soon, a leader of the Yongjun army had intercepted their way with the Yongjun armor soldiers lined up in a military formation.

In the blink of an eye, the two sides were already fighting each other.

"Whoa—"

A shrill wooden whistle sounded.

Meng Su roared angrily, stepped forward suddenly, and with a wave of his long halberd, he swept away the halberds of the three Yongjun soldiers in front of him. The halberd in his hand suddenly stabbed out, and the squad also stepped forward with Mengsu, and he and Mengsu stabbed one of the sergeants in the opposing army's formation at the same time.

The sergeant threw it away

The halberd couldn't help but let out a terrible scream, and the organs in his abdomen fell out of the grass along the gap cut by the halberd blade.

"Be careful!"

There was a sudden loud cry in his ears, and Meng Su was startled, and wanted to withdraw the halberd, but it seemed to be stuck in something. At the moment of life and death, he discarded the halberd in his hand and hurriedly raised his shield to protect his head.

"Bell!"

But when he heard a violent noise, a huge force suddenly came from the array shield in Wang Qi's hand, and Meng Su bent his knees and almost knelt on the ground.

Three or four halberds stretched out from behind Meng Su at the same time, and one of the commanders of the Yongjun army fell in front of him with a bang, blood gushing out of his abdomen.

"Yongjun Crossbowmen!!

The pupils in Zhang Xu's eyes suddenly widened, and he suddenly raised the array shield in his hand to protect his head and chest.

"Whoosh!"

There was a sound of breaking the air, and more than a dozen arrows broke through the air.

Li Cong saw the arrows flying, but it was too late, he didn't have time to protect himself with his shield.

"Tuk, tuk, tuk!"

A tall figure appeared in front of Li Cong, and it was Ban Lei who received the arrow with the formation shield.

But not everyone had such luck, and there were still people in the army who were shot with crossbows.

The miserable howl suddenly sounded from the military formation, but fortunately, the trapped warriors of the state army all had iron armor to protect the vital parts, so except for one unlucky soldier who was shot in the face and killed on the spot, the rest of the people were only slightly injured.

The state army is fully armed, Wang Rong's Chinese army, except for the righteous cavalry, is basically a shield per person, the wolf rides with a round shield, the trapped warriors have tower shields and array shields, and the first dead soldiers are Quyuan shields.

"Array!"

Wang Xu pulled out the ring knife on his waist and shouted loudly. He took over the position of captain Li Ji, and now he leads a new team that has been reorganized.

The flag officer beside Wang Xu waved the captain's flag, and the trapped warriors who poured into the wall gathered under the captain's banner, and the trap warriors holding tower shields were on the outermost periphery.

"Whoosh!" "Whoosh!"

More than a dozen crossbowmen of the Bingzhou army also followed the trapped warriors into the wall, they hid between the wall and debris, and kept shooting at the Yongjun on the lookout, which relieved the pressure of the infantry of the Bingzhou army to a certain extent.
