Chapter 41: Breaking through the wheel formation on a single horse

Sigh:

The wheels of the circle are gone, and the commander of the Chinese army is strange.

Fei Di kills strong men, and the white blade penetrates the clothes.

It's not a light strategy, it's a real scramble.

The Khan Emperor personally mounted his horse and charged into battle to capture the enemy.

Wei Xin and Yang Rong came to the periphery of Gray County, and saw Song Yi and Wen Ziming's army attacking the city from a distance, so they wanted to assist, but they didn't want the sound of shouting and killing behind them, but when they looked back, it was Yang Qingcai's army that pounced!

It turned out that the two of them were cavalry, and Li Shijian ordered the second general to take a detour of Shili Kangzhuang and take the Thirty Libao South Avenue, which meant that they would rush ahead of Yang Qingcai's army to help Song Yi and Wen Ziming take Gray County as soon as possible.

Li Shijian's consideration is also wrong, but the purpose has not changed, that is, to trap Yang Qingcai, wait for the opportunity to force him to surrender, or take it by force, and never let him escape and surrender to Du Huaibiao.

I didn't want Fu Liming to see the opportunity, but after listening to his suggestion, Yang Qingcai did not hesitate, and dispatched all the defenders of Huangzhou to Gray County.

Halfway through, Fu Liming thought that the speed of the army was not fast enough, and there was a report from Tanma that there was an enemy cavalry on the South Kangzhuang Avenue of Thirty Libao and went straight to Gray County, so Yang Qingcai led the front army of 15,000 people, and rushed to come, leaving Fu Liming to protect Yang Qingcai's family and family, and led the rear army of 20,000 horses and horses behind.

When Yang Qingcai's army arrived, it was the fiercest time when the battle between the two sides for the city of Gray County was fiercest. Wen Ziming saw that his own reinforcements were coming, and when he was happy, he saw that Yang Qingcai's army had arrived, and Wen Ziming immediately told Wei Xin and Yang Rong and asked them to lead the cavalry to forcibly clash and block Yang Qingcai's army.

Cavalry siege is its shortcoming, and rushing on the plains is precisely the strength of this class. So Wei Xin and Yang Rong led five thousand cavalry to shout and charge!

When Yang Qing saw it, he knew that his infantry couldn't stop it, and shouted: "Dodge on both sides, let them break through in the middle, all the generals of the army, form a circle formation, and attack from both sides!"

Originally, the cavalry charge formation had its formation, like a triangular cone, to be cone into the enemy's infantry formation, tear the opening, and expand the results of the battle.

However, although Yang Qingcai can't compare to Li Shijian and Fu Liming, but compared to Zhu Wu, Zhang Yousan, Lu Jiugong, Chen Zhiyuan, etc., they are indeed a head higher, Wei Xin and Yang Rong, although they are generals, but compared to Yang Qingcai, their heads are still weaker!

Yang Qingcai's practice is really to use a formation to break the cavalry offensive, this formation was originally researched by Fu Liming, although it cannot stop the cavalry charge, but it can minimize casualties and can effectively counterattack.

Wei Xin and Yang Rong's 5,000 cavalry rushed through the formation, and when they turned their horses' heads and charged again, the soldiers on both sides of the formation had already lost three or four hundred people. Of course, Yang Qingcai's infantry suffered greater losses against the cavalry, with six or seven hundred men.

Speaking of which, cavalry units are more demanding to assemble, first of all, they must have horses, and secondly, they must train riders, and in terms of their tactical use, the synergy effect of infantry and cavalry is a little better. In comparison, it is much easier to form infantry units.

Therefore, this time, Li Shijian was also forced to order the 5,000 cavalry troops to attack alone in order to seize time.

Yang Qingcai divided his 15,000 men and horses into an array of circular formations, and the circular formations rotated to force the cavalry charge to only enter between the two circular formations, and then attack the sides of his cavalry formation, counteracting the cavalry advantage.

Therefore, for a time, the wall of Gray County was up and down, and the wall was smeared with blood, and outside Gray County, Yang Qingcai's army and Weixin Yang Rong's cavalry were also inseparable.

Speaking of which, the two generals of Wang Han and Ma Ming in the city defended the city condescendingly and had a slight advantage, but Song Yi was fierce, so that the two generals did not dare to be distracted and stared closely at Song Yi to command the defense of the city; in the field battle outside the city, Yang Qingcai's infantry slightly took advantage of Wei Xin and Yang Rong's cavalry by virtue of the circular formation.

The fight here is difficult to solve, and in Thirty Mile Fort, Fu Liming protects Yang Qingcai's family and his family, and they hurried to catch up, but because of the baggage, they were finally chased by 20,000 horses led by Li Shijian, Taiping Army Ji Xiaohu, Yang Can, Zhang Long, and Chen Tong.

While commanding the counterattack, Fu Liming organized an orderly retreat, fought and left, and only came to Gray County.

The four generals Ji Xiaohu, Yang Can, Zhang Long, and Chen Tong led 20,000 people, and Fu Liming led 20,000 people.

20,000 horses against 20,000 horses, the four generals could not encircle Fu Liming's men and horses, and the battle was stalemate. At this time, a messenger sent by Wen Ziming arrived, reporting that he would ask for reinforcements as soon as possible, in order to quickly take Gray County.

The four generals had no troops to divide, and when they were anxious, they heard the sound of shouts, the golden drum shook violently, and another army was coming! When they looked closely, it was the two generals Gao Yuan and Qin Yuan who led 10,000 fresh troops to arrive.

The second general of Gao Qin came here, but he was unwilling to divide his troops, and only said that he would abide by the order of the Khan, and he should not act without the order of the Khan.

The messenger for help was helpless.

However, with the arrival of this new force led by the second general Gao Qin, the Taiping army finally surrounded Fu Liming's men and horses, and fought desperately in Thirty Mile Fort!

Fu Liming is really capable, organizing a death squad to charge, and he is about to break through the Taiping army's encirclement!

Suddenly, it was the sound of drums that shook the sky, but it was Li Shijian who led an army of 20,000 to kill.

This time, Fu Liming's 20,000 horses and horses could no longer break out of the encirclement.

The messenger was just about to leave, and when he saw that the Khan had arrived, he reported to Li Shijian that Wen Ziming had asked for support. Li Shijian said: "The battle situation here is tight, our army surrounds Fu Liming in this field battle, and cannot be withdrawn, if he is allowed to break out of the encirclement, it will be more than worth the loss!"

The messenger said, "The situation over there is also very urgent. ”

Li Shijian said: "You go back and tell General Song and the Wen Army Division that the situation has changed, please change their thinking, slow down the attack on the county seat, and fight Yang Qingcai urgently!"

After the messenger went, Li Shijian organized the army to charge again and again, and Fu Liming's 20,000 troops suffered more casualties.

The six generals Ji Xiaohu, Yang Can, Zhang Long, Chen Tong, Qin Yuan, and Gao Yuan divided the army into six teams, and each led 5,000 troops to attack from six sides in the encirclement. Coupled with Li Shijian's army of 20,000 horses, Fu Liming's army gradually became overwhelmed.

When Fu Liming saw it, he divided the men and horses into nine teams, and the eight generals led eight teams of men and horses to form a round formation, facing the battle on eight sides, but he led an army to live in the middle of the circle formation, responding to the Quartet, and protecting Yang Qingcai's family and children.

Fu Liming called his own formation a wheel formation, the formation was like a wheel rolling, and the eight teams of soldiers led by the eight generals on the periphery kept moving, and when they were in battle, they had a feeling of being at ease.

The army moved in all directions with the middle group—Fu Liming went west, and the circle moved westward while fighting—apparently to approach Gray County.

This formation was really effective, and after a short battle, it moved two or three miles to the west, and the Taiping army in the west of the encirclement had the appearance that it could not stop the enemy army and was about to be broken out by him.

This wheel array, as mentioned earlier, was researched by Fu Liming, and Li Shijian didn't know why for a while.

As the saying goes, "grass head medicine cures serious diseases", this kind of formation actually resisted Li Shijian's Taiping army, which made Li Shijian anxious for a while.

Li Shijian thought of attacking Jufeng Ridge that day, and Fu Liming escaped with this formation, and couldn't help but turn his head quickly, pondering the way to break the formation.

Speaking of the soldiers of Yang Qingcai's department, when they were training in the past, the soldiers thought that this formation had never been done before, and they all regarded it as a joke, but they didn't expect it to come in handy today, not only to protect themselves, but also to be able to approach the destination, but also to have a tangible anti-encirclement effect!

For a time, the morale of the troops led by Fu Liming soared, and their combat strength soared!

The array of wheels rolls and rolls, only to the west and not to the east.

Eight-sided troop transport to block enemy arrows, and the middle positioning refers to the whereabouts.

This array turned round and turned, and the three armies attacked each other at that time.

Who wants the eight-spoke hub? Volts is in the array.

This place is only twenty miles away from Gray County, the two sides are fighting, Fu Liming leads the army with this round formation, while fighting, while moving westward, both have the upper hand, and long morale.

If it continues like this, Fu Liming will break through and join Yang Qingcai is only a matter of time!

Li Shijian saw that Fu Liming's army was dealing with his own encirclement in this way, and he watched it for a long time, and finally decided on a hard way to break the formation!

It turned out that Li Shijian's idea was: If a fast-spinning wheel follows the direction of its rotation, it is indeed difficult to shoot a shot, but what if it is pierced in the direction of the wheel?

However, if I can really break the spear, then the speed of the wheel must be high! Is the wheel formation of Fu Liming so fast? What will happen if I use myself as a spear and plunge into this wheel array?

Thinking of this, Li Shijian said to Li Shilong and Miao Hui, the two pro-guard generals:

"Gather the pro-guards, follow me to attack Fu Liming's army, break the wheel formation, and capture Fu Liming!"

It turned out that Li Shijian was very smart, and after watching it for a long time, I thought that your wheel array turned left and left, and I led an army, rushed to the right in reverse, and entered your Chinese army, I can always catch you Fu Liming, right?

Thinking of this, Li Shijian took a deep breath, looked at the formation of Fu Liming's army again, his tongue bloomed with spring thunder, and shouted: "Guards and athletes, follow me!"

Li Shijian waved the bright silver spear in his hand, took the lead, and rushed forward.

Speaking of which, Li Shijian's rush was like a gun, turning the direction against the circle and piercing deeply!

If Li Shijian attacked in the direction of the circular array, the generals who were facing Li Shijian at that time only needed to block Li Shijian's shot to avoid death, but Li Shijian attacked against the direction of the circular formation, and the speed was extremely fast, so the generals had to block Li Shijian's two moves.

It is difficult for this person to even block Li Shijian's one move, let alone two moves? What's more, Li Shijian has made up his mind, and he will rush into the Chinese army to capture that Fu Liming?

At that time, I heard a scream of "Ah-" only half of the scream was abruptly stopped, and the general whined!

Therefore, the circle stagnated, and the formation was suddenly chaotic. When the generals were about to adjust their speed and repair the formation, Li Shijian had already rushed into the circle formation!

At this time, the circle formation had returned to its normal operating speed, and Li Shijian's personal guards were blocked outside the formation, and Li Shijian, the emperor of the Taiping Khanate, was actually riding alone, and he wanted to face the nearly 3,000 Chinese army guards in the round array!

In terms of fighting bravery, Fu Liming, as a strategist, couldn't support Li Shijian's little finger, let alone fight against Li Shijian's all-out attack.

However, Fu Liming's vision was accurate, knowing that Li Shijian rushed into the heart of the circle and came straight to him, but at this time, he shouted orders and shouted to his subordinates:

"Officers and men of the Chinese army, go on! Li Shijian is surrounded by our Chinese army, and he has already thrown himself into the net! Resolutely don't let him escape! Catch him alive!"

Fu Liming shouted like this, for himself, it can be said that he is not afraid of danger at the moment, or it can be said that he is fierce and inward-looking, but at this time, when the two armies are attacking, the effect of this voice is not simple:

The Taiping army went from soldiers to generals to generals, and they were all in a panic; the morale of the men and horses led by Fu Liming was already rising, and at this time it seemed as if they had been beaten with chicken blood, especially the Chinese army in the center of the circle, screaming and rushing towards Li Shijian.

Li Shijian sneered: "You are thousands of troops, why am I afraid?"

At that time, Li Shijian picked up his sword and slashed, and in the midst of thousands of troops, he still did not slow down and rushed towards Fu Liming. The soldiers led by Fu Liming will die if they touch it!

Li Shijian laughed, wielded his spear and swung his sword, as if he had entered a no-man's land; at this time, four generals rushed over, it was Zhang Ba and Li Jiu, who had recently been promoted by Yang Qingcai and became the commander of the Chinese army, as well as Yang Jin and Ruan Ting!

Although the four generals Zhang Ba, Li Jiu, Yang Jin, and Ruan Ting had never fought with Li Shijun in person, they could be regarded as having personally experienced Li Shijun's resourcefulness and bravery;

——At this time, the four generals saw Li Shijian rushing into the formation, and their own soldiers were cut off from the formation. So the four generals shouted together, each led his own soldiers, and killed Li Shijian, to protect Fu Liming and capture the Taiping Khan!

The four generals each raised their swords and guns and shouted. Li Shijian rushed forward on a horse, as if he hadn't seen him rush over.

said that it was too late, it was fast, Li Shijian raised his gun and passed Zhang Bada's knife, and slashed out with a sword flat shoulder, only to see Zhang Bama rushing forward, but the living person turned into a dead corpse and fell off the horse!

At this time, Li Jiu's gun arrived, Li Shijian's body flashed, flashed the gun, grabbed Li Jiu's spear with his left hand, shook it backwards, and Li Jiu fell off his horse; at the same time, the right hand gun was used as a big stick, only to hear the air being torn, and let out a "woo" sound, sweeping down the enemy soldiers around him!

At this time, Yang Jin and Ruan Ting's two generals attacked together, a good Li Shijian, with a move to throw the gun, the big gun flicked back, and stabbed out, and the place where the gun was blooming was Yang Jin's shoulder!

Yang Jin was shot and almost fell off his horse. Fortunately, Li Shijian hurriedly returned the gun to block Ruan Ting's attack, Yang Jin was lucky to save his life and left with a cry. Ruan Ting took the opportunity to wield a big knife and slash straight to the head!

Li Shijian didn't stop, the horse rushed forward, the big gun had already been withdrawn, as soon as he turned around, he lifted the tail of the gun up, and picked it up from behind his elbow, and he heard a "dang long" sound, and then he heard a "woo" sound, but it was Ruan Ting's big sword that was knocked away by Li Shijian, and he became a "karate" general!

Fu Liming's middle army soldiers were taken aback, and couldn't help but retreat slightly, just like that, Li Shijian had already rushed through with a horse, and rushed straight to Fu Liming, and at the same time shouted:

"Fu Liming, where to go?"
