Chapter Eighty-Three: The Siege
The tactics of the cavalry are to chisel through, cut the opponent's army formation horizontally, and then eat the part cut out directly, this kind of tactics is the first time that Da Zhou has seen it, although there are only 20,000 cavalry, but now it has nothing to do with the number of people, Sun Ming has been staring at the cavalry's war horse.
The physical strength of the war horse is the key to the impact distance of the cavalry, if the physical strength is unlimited in the face of 500,000 enemy troops, they can still fight again, after all, people kill red eyes, it can completely stimulate the potential of the human body, but the war horse is much worse, this is a herbivore after all.
The war horse seems to be a big problem now, and it can completely complete the chiseling tactics, but whether it can be used again in the future depends on the situation, and the infantry army has counterattacked at this time, and the opponent's formation is a little scattered because of the charge, and now the army is unstable, completely shocked by the cavalry, and it will begin to rout as soon as it makes contact.
Huang Feihu, the king of Wucheng, was observing, today he commanded, and used cavalry to dispatch, so the situation must come to a big victory, "Order, the whole army presses." ”
The army of the Great Shang is like a whole, a precisely functioning machine, each part of which completes its own thing in its own position, and the army is pressed forward in an all-round way. They did not charge, but maintained the integrity of the array, advancing step by step, the overall momentum was connected as one, and the sound of roaring footsteps shook people's hearts in panic. Looking at the approaching Great Shang Army, it was difficult for the soldiers of Da Zhou to withstand such pressure, and they did not have the courage to step forward and fight.
This is the role of the military formation, the advance of the phalanx is a whole, and now there is no formation in the Great Zhou, and it has become an individual facing a whole, so the momentum and courage of both sides are different, and the strength of the people is right, but at some point the number of people is not necessarily a good thing, especially in the case of chaos.
And the rest was a scene of defeat, the part that was cut out began to flee backwards, and Jiang Ziya did not order a retreat, and the Da Zhou soldiers who were blocked behind wanted to fill the position after the cavalry, and the two sides collided directly.
Jiang Ziya's ability to lead the troops is really limited, the truth that the primitive taught him is at most a civilian official, and the rapid changes on the battlefield are very difficult to control, he is a cultivator, not a military artist. Of course, this is Jiang Ziya of the flood wilderness, and Jiang Ziya in Chinese history is the master of the art of war, and here is a soy sauce character.
Sun Ming looked at the chaotic Great Zhou soldiers, he smiled, this Jiang Ziya is really not good, if it was Shen Gongbao who was the god at the beginning, then what would happen? This is a very interesting idea, Shen Gongbao presided over the matter of sealing the gods, will his mouth exert its power? I think that the sect may not send so many people to help the big business, and Tongtian may not be involved, right?
But this kind of thing is just thinking about it, and Jiang Ziya is very anxious now, he doesn't want to miss this opportunity, "Order, the rear army is pressed up, and the enemy must be repulsed, our number exceeds 200,000 on the other side, and we will definitely be able to keep an eye on this raid." "He still wants to fight hard.
If it is really directly strangled together, then even if the Great Shang wins, it will be a tragic victory, but things have not developed like this, and the South Pole and Kong Xuan, who have gone to fight above the Nine Heavens, have come back at this time.
What did Kong Xuan look like when he went, and what he still looked like when he came back, and the South Pole was very embarrassed, Kong Xuan returned to the camp of the army, "See the king." ”
"Well, it seems that Antarctica has learned a little bit this time, so it's also good. After Sun Ming finished speaking, he looked at the sky, and then said, "General, put away that flower basket!"
Kong Xuan had already seen the basket of flowers, and now when he heard Sun Ming's words, he was a little more casual, and a five-colored light shot out, hitting the basket directly, and the basket instantly lost its spirituality, and then was pulled by a force and flew to the barracks of the big merchants, holding it in Kong Xuan's hand.
Qingxu Daode Zhenjun wanted to take back the flower basket, but he couldn't communicate with the flower basket at all, so he watched his spirit treasure taken away by others, he understood the gap between the two, and he didn't dare to be presumptuous anymore, and fell back to the main formation directly.
"Senior Brother Ziya, the flower basket was taken away by that Kong Xuan, what is it like now?" The words of the Pure Void Moral True Monarch made Jiang Ziya startled, and he hurriedly looked up, and the arrow array of the Great Shang had now joined the attack.
Nanji took a breath after landing on the ground, and then said: "Senior Brother Ziya, that Kong Xuan is really amazing, I don't know what kind of magic power he uses, as soon as he emits it, it is five divine lights, my spiritual treasure spells are all ineffective, and he can be defeated after a long fight, and it is easy for him to kill me." ”
"This ...... Alas, the order was given to retreat. "Jiang Ziya can only retreat, the opponent's arrow array is resurrected, and now the senior brother and the quasi-saint can't fight, so they have no choice but to retreat, but can they really retreat?
Wucheng King Huang Feihu saw it clearly, and then turned around, "King, what are you going to achieve today?"
"Soldiers are coming to the city. After Sun Ming finished speaking, he sat down, he had been standing and observing just now, looking at the brave soldiers under his command, and now that the battle was safe, he sat down.
"Understand, the herald ordered the army to bite the other side tightly, and the cavalry was divided into two, attacking on both sides, but not penetrating deep into the enemy's formation, saving horsepower. After Huang Feihu gave the order, the Great Shang Army began to accelerate its advance, biting the tail of the Great Zhou Army tightly and not letting go.
Ji Chang was dumbfounded, he came to see Da Zhou's victory posture with hundreds of civil and military officials today, but now he has to run away, but there is no way, Jiang Ziya urged him to hurry up, Ji Chang can only ride a war horse and turn around and run, Nangong Shi is guarding aside, he is good now, after all, it is not a deadly Taoism. They rushed all the way back to the camp of Shouyang Mountain, but as soon as they arrived on the front foot, the back foot broke the army and came back, squeezing into the camp in a chaotic manner, without the slightest order, and the morning dispatch was completely two scenes.
"Alas, how can this be good?" Ji Chang slapped his thigh and couldn't hold back his strength, his body was shaky, Ji Fa hurriedly supported his father on the side, and there was nothing to say.
Victory or defeat is a common thing in soldiers, but three consecutive defeats also make people unhappy, and every time they have more troops, the big merchants send millions of troops, and the ones who fight with them are only 300,000, and there are 700,000 to recuperate! According to the spies, Taishi Wenzhong sits in Bishui Pass to train soldiers, and the daily school field is full of murderous spirit, like a tiger and wolf division, Ji Fa doesn't very understand, why don't big merchants come out of the nest?
Regardless of their nonsense, at this time, the army of the Great Zhou Dynasty returned to the camp in a hurry, and the Great Shang did not let them go, and chased them all the way to a short distance, Huang Feihu rode the colorful sacred cow and watched from afar, and then ordered, "Order the cavalry to charge, and be sure to enter the enemy's military camp, now is a good time, I will celebrate them after the deed." ”
The cavalry has been trotting to recover its horsepower, and the Great Zhou army was defeated too quickly, because of Kong Xuan's return, the cavalry's charge, the two sides exchanged offense and defense, and as the first defensive side, the physical strength of the soldiers was very good, and now with the morale like a rainbow, it was an excellent time to enter the army.
"Kill ......" The cavalry burst out again, and the sound kept reaching the Shouyang Mountain camp.
Ji Chang was shocked, "Why did you kill it?"
Jiang Ziya sat on the four dissimilarities, looked away from afar, only to see the dust flying, and the sound of horses' hooves rumbling in his ears, "It's not good, the other party's cavalry is going to storm the camp, quickly, defend immediately." ”
No, the rout is the most terrible, and the more the rout is behind, the more terrible it is, and the will to survive makes them ignore the enemy and the enemy, just bow their heads and flee for their lives, how difficult it is to intercept them. At the same time, these routs were the original front-line troops, and they were afraid of the cavalry, and the scene of thousands of horses galloping made me shudder when I thought about it.
The defense could not be established, and the cavalry had already arrived in front of them, directly impacting the camp, here was the place of chasing congestion, even if the cavalry charge was difficult, but fortunately there were horseshoes, and the horses could gallop freely, and at the same time the cavalry was not swarming, but the impact of waves, before the first wave was exhausted, the second wave had rushed over, so it was endless.
The cavalry used a saber, the length is good, suitable for chopping, the left and right sides take turns to chop is very labor-saving, leaving a scream all the way, and then don't drown the horse, "Retreat, return to Xiqi City." Jiang Ziya gritted his teeth and made a decision, the big revenue couldn't stop, the opponent's cavalry was fast and had a strong impact, and he couldn't organize a defense, so he could only retreat again, and this retreat could only be Xiqi, only the city wall could intercept the opponent's cavalry.
The army retreated again, but Xiqi's road was not very close, and they stopped and stopped on the road, and they were chased until Xiqi City, and the other party stopped, and the time was already three days later, and both sides were exhausted, so they died down.
Sun Ming directly ordered the camp to relocate, and the Shouyangshan camp became a new station, the capture here was really good, half a month's worth of grain and grass for the 700,000 army, plus weapons and other materials, Jiang Ziya suffered a big loss this time.
"General, send a message to the Taishi and ask him to transfer 300,000 troops to come and exchange large armies here. There are all elite soldiers here, let the Taishi good students take care of them. In addition, Lone's will, the prime minister must do a good job of the bereavement of the fallen soldiers, the children can enter the county to study after school, and the disabled can not be neglected, if there are officials who deduct the pension, regardless of the grade, the prime minister can be beheaded. ”
"Thank you for your kindness. "The welfare of the soldiers of the Great Merchants is very good, they have their own salaries, and the benefits of the dead and disabled are even better, of course, this is in exchange for their lives.
Half a month later, the army was adjusted, and although there were less than 250,000 of the 300,000 soldiers who had experienced the great battle, they held their heads high and drove all the way to Bishui Pass with their heads held high.
And the new 300,000 soldiers looked at it with envy, they had the battle report in front of them every day, and the officers would read them the detailed process of the battle, their mood was driven by ups and downs, and the blood in their bodies was also boiling, this time it was their turn.
Everything was ready, Shouyang Mountain left 200,000 people, and then the 100,000 army set off to Xiqi City, ten miles away from Xiqi City to camp, and the war entered the land of Great Zhou.
