Chapter 53: The trend of breaking the army is advancing but not retreating

Chapter 52: The trend of destroying the army is advancing but not retreating

One thousand cavalry charged, but no enemy troops were seen, but more than half of them were killed and wounded. Now Wang Shichong was also riding a tiger and was unable to dismount.

After all, with such heavy casualties and no achievements at all, it can only be blamed on his poor command.

Wang Shichong's eyes flashed coldly, and he gritted his teeth and ordered to continue the attack. He had made up his mind that even if he used up all the cavalry, he would break up the formation of this army. When tens of thousands of troops encircle him, he will surely destroy the trapped camp.

Looking at the more than 300 cavalry who continued to charge, Gao Shun directly saw through Wang Shichong's intention. After smiling disdainfully, he continued to command calmly.

“Fall into the camp, disperse, form a group of ten, and form a tiger formation.”

Nearly seventy small formations of ten people were quickly formed, and then the group directly faced the remaining three hundred cavalry.

The three hundred cavalry, whose formation had been dispersed and whose impact had been exhausted, were unable to threaten the heavy infantry of the trapping camp, and were quickly killed by the trapping camp head-on.

800 infantrymen wiped out 1,000 cavalrymen head-on. In addition to the numerous enemy troops that had been killed previously, the trapped enemy troops had suffered immeasurable losses, while their own damage was less than 100.

Such a battle damage ratio is a great deterrent to the enemy. At this time, in the eyes of the enemy officers and soldiers, the trapped camp is already a Shura blood army.

Seeing that the morale of the army was low and the casualties were heavy, Wang Shichong's eyes were red and he shouted hysterically: "Don't be afraid, the enemy's army has reached its limit. The three armies have come together to encircle me."

800 people beat more than 20,000 of them in fear. No matter how he changed his formation, the opponent always had ways to deal with it. Wang Shichong had no choice but to rely on the number of people to fight against the enemy.

Wang Shichong knew that the casualties would definitely be huge. After the battle, it was unclear whether the remaining people could hold on to the underworld. However, if he did not remove the nail that trapped the camp, he might not be able to win this battle.

At this point, Wang Shichong can only use human lives to fill the bottomless pit of the camp.

Enemies from all directions surrounded the trap camp. Gao Shun saw this and understood that Wang Shichong had already risked his life. No matter how elite and well-equipped the trap camp was, it only had 800 people. It was still unrealistic to kill all 20,000 people. , so I suddenly felt stressed, and there was some sweat on my forehead. At the same time, I was secretly thinking about how to minimize casualties.

"Xuanwu Formation, gathering, raising shields, Xuanwu Sword Wall Formation."

The steel fortress changed again, but this time a groove was exposed in the middle of each shield in the circular shield formation, and a long knife was fixed in it. The entire circular formation became a wall of swords.

"change!"

Facing the siege of tens of thousands of people, the sword wall composed of more than 700 people, under the command of Gao Shunruju, rotated clockwise. As soon as the enemy troops approached, they were immediately smashed into pieces, with countless broken limbs and broken arms, and flesh and blood flying everywhere.

Qin Hao saw that Gao Shun had held back most of the opponent's troops and that the battle was almost over now. It was time to break the camp and make achievements, so he said to Zhang Liao and others:

"Brother Wenyuan, the enemy's right wing has not yet been dispatched. You lead the barracks to overwhelm the right wing, and then charge from right to left. You must overwhelm the enemy's formation. Qin will use Yue Fei, and you two will assist Zhang Liao in the charge together."

When Zhang Liao heard that it was finally time for him to perform, he immediately said excitedly: "Promise, I will fight to the death to complete the mission!"

Compared to the complex and changeable battle formations of the trapped camp, the attack method of breaking the military camp is much simpler, with only one point, and that is to charge.

In this era when light cavalry has not yet reached its peak, the strategic position of heavy cavalry is undoubtedly terrifying.

Although the five hundred heavy cavalry are few, any soldier in this era who dares to appear under the iron hoof of the broken barracks will be crushed by the broken barracks!

Fang Jie on the right wing saw that the five hundred generals of the Yanmen Army were dressed very "strangely", but he could tell at the first sight that they were elite cavalry, coming towards his side, and he immediately felt troubled.

He has now fully seen the fighting power of the Yanmen Army. Eight hundred elite infantry can hold back the Wang family's fifteen thousand soldiers and horses. His five thousand new soldiers may not be able to stop the opponent's five hundred cavalry.

“If you can’t stop it, withdraw!”

The cold voice of a handsome young man wearing white armor and riding a red horse beside Fang Jie came slowly.

Seeing this, Fang Jie lowered his head and whispered: "Miss, if we retreat, won't the Wang family definitely lose?"

That's right, the white-armored young general is Dongfang Sheng's disguise as a man. Dongfang Sheng has never left the army, he just disguised himself as a man and hid.

"What does the life and death of the Wang family have to do with us?" Dongfang Sheng asked calmly.

"With the Wang family here, we can contain some of the Yanmen Army!" Fang Jie retorted without thinking.

“It’s too late. From the day Qin Hao returned to Yanmen, the Wang family’s failure was doomed and there was no way for anyone to avoid it.

What we have to do is just take advantage of the opportunity. Five thousand troops are already a lot, so we must be content.

Moreover, if the Wang family is not defeated, how can they sincerely defect to our Yellow Turban Army?

I have long said that the flag of our Yellow Turban Army is not easy to fight. Now that it has been put up, never put it down! "

“Miss, do you really want to?”

"Yes, all the major families in the area are now convinced by our Yellow Turban Army, and the support of a disabled Wang family can also win people's hearts." Fang Jie was overwhelmed by Dongfang Sheng's rhetoric. To be sure, he was so simple-minded that he could not have thought of this. Moreover, Dongfang Sheng was the main focus of everything he came out this time, so he had no choice but to retreat according to Dongfang Sheng's order.

“Withdraw towards Pingcheng, maybe we can trick Qin Wen before Qin Hao reacts.”

Dongfang Sheng's eyes flashed with wisdom, and he said calmly: "Wait for Wang Shichong along the way. I have a hunch that this man will not die so easily."

Pingcheng is located in the northeasternmost direction of Yanmen Army, and further east is Daijun.

Qin and Wen's 30,000-strong army went on an expedition. It was impossible to rely entirely on Daijun for food and grass supply, and Pingcheng was the only way for Qin and Wen's grain transportation.

Once Pingcheng falls, Qin and Wen's 30,000 elite troops will be in danger of running out of food.

Wang Xiong and others were dumbfounded when they saw Fang Jie on the right wing running away from the battle. They immediately cursed Fang Jie and Dongfang Sheng for being shameless, and used all the dirty words on the two of them.

Wang Shichong didn't speak, just because the situation was critical now, and he didn't even bother to scold Fang Jie.

“The whole army attacks and must stop these five hundred cavalry.” Wang Shichong roared hysterically, like a gambler who lost his eyes.

Zhang Liao led the 500 broken barracks and was preparing to charge the enemy on the right. However, before the battle started, the enemy troops withdrew from the battlefield and took the initiative to expose the Chinese army to the iron hooves of the broken barracks.

In normal times, Zhang Liao would definitely pursue him directly. After all, five thousand soldiers and horses were already a force that could reverse the situation and could not be left alone.

However, the trapped camp is still surrounded by the enemy, and Zhang Liao also learned from Qin Hao that Fang Jie and the Wang family are not of the same mind. Since the other party has taken the initiative to retreat, Zhang Liao does not need to fight with the other party. The overall situation is still the most important thing.

Yue Fei, who was beside Zhang Liao, saw this and said cautiously: "General Zhang Liao, if Fang Jie escapes at this time, do you think there is any fraud?"

"Yes, we only have five hundred cavalry, so it's better to be cautious." Qin Yong frowned and said, the wealth in the underworld has really restrained his impetuous personality.

After Zhang Liao pondered for a while, he shook his head and said confidently: "No, Brother Qin, Yue Zhuangshi, you don't understand the fighting method of breaking the military camp, that's why you think so. Don't worry, even if the other party is cheating, I will break the military camp." It can also be broken!"

When Qin Yong Yue Fei saw this, he didn't say much anymore. He just had to fulfill his duty. Besides, Zhang Liao was not a reckless person. Since he is so confident, he must have a reason.

Qin Hao in the rear frowned when he saw that Fang Jie's five thousand soldiers and horses had withdrawn directly to the northeast. He felt a bad feeling in his heart.

"What does that woman Dongfang Sheng want to do? I can't even figure out a woman's thoughts. It seems that I haven't mastered the art of vertical and horizontal skills yet. This feeling of not being in control is really annoying!"

“I really saved an incredible woman back then, but as Zhang Jiao’s adopted daughter and having an influence on the general trend of the world, there is not even a trace of record in the original history. It’s really strange!”

Qin Hao and Dongfang Sheng have known each other for a long time. Qin Hao unexpectedly met Dongfang Sheng when he went to Bingzhou with Guiguzi to study four years ago. In the following four years, the two also met several times, which is why the two parties understand each other so well. .

“Forget it, don’t think about it anymore, it’s impossible for history books to record all abilities, and the same goes for my father!”

On the frontal battlefield, the main force of the enemy army has been exposed to the iron hooves of the Po Army Camp. Zhang Liao was naturally not polite and directly commanded the Po Army Camp to kill the enemy's central army.

“Destroy the military camp and charge!”

“To break the momentum of an army, advance but never retreat.”

“Ding dong, Zhang Liao’s hidden skill ‘Assault’ is awakened. Assault: When leading an army to prepare for a surprise attack or charge, the movement speed of the troops will increase, their combat power will increase, the general’s command will be +3, and their force will be +3.”

“Ding dong, Zhang Liao’s skill ‘raid’ is activated, command +3, force +3, Zhang Liao’s original commander is 90, force is 93, Qingtian Hook Sickle’s force is +1, increased by surprise, current commander is 93, force is 97.”

The three thousand soldiers and horses of the Wang family's rear army were obviously unable to stop the Po Army Camp, which was charging with Zhang Liao and the others as arrows. Under the violent impact of the Po Army Camp, the rear army was like tissue paper, which could be broken with just one poke. After the army dug through, they did not change their momentum and plunged directly into the enemy's army.

The broken barracks, armed to the teeth, are even more powerful, and the five hundred broken barracks are like tanks. Once they charge, anyone who dares to stand in front of the broken barracks on the road will be crushed to pieces.

The soldiers who broke the barracks did not even need to kill. As long as they maintained their formation and charged, they could crush a large number of enemy troops.

The enemy also counterattacked, but even the people and horses in the broken camp were wearing heavy armor, and even their faces had iron masks. Only their eyes, arms, legs and horse legs were exposed.

If the Wang family had a group of elites comparable to the trapped camp, they might be able to cause huge casualties to the Pojun camp through the flaws exposed in the Pojun camp, but it is obviously impossible with a group of new soldiers.
