Chapter 1130: Flanking Attack
Needless to say, this person is Wu Zhong who is wearing heavy armor, he committed suicide into the enemy formation as if he entered a no-man's land, and the thieves were killed by him regardless of whether they were single-handedly or in a group fight.
However, the heavy armor and the weight of the horse are heavy, and the battlefield is muddy, one foot is shallow, and the other foot is extremely laborious, although Wu Zhong is brave and strong, at this time it is the end of the strong crossbow, seeing that he is too deep into the enemy formation, and when he is about to turn back, he sees a small group of thieves rushing into the formation with more than ten horses, and he judges from experience that it should be the head of the thief, and he has a murderous heart in his heart, and he carries a knife and goes forward.
Chen Dafa was also startled when he saw such a thing for the first time, wearing heavy armor and killing here is definitely ruthless, so he didn't dare to underestimate it, as soon as he raised his knife, the thief army around him rushed towards Wuzhong, but he just surrounded it and slashed several people and rushed out.
The thief army has never seen this kind of fierce man, and he was suddenly afraid in his heart and did not dare to fight hard, Chen Dafa was about to be ruthless when he suddenly saw that the man actually turned around with a knife, it turned out that Wu Zhong also had self-knowledge, he was already exhausted at this time, and it was very likely that he would lose his strength if he could not kill him in time, and he would become the meat on the board and let people chop it, so he quickly retreated while he still had some spare strength.
Speaking of let's go, Chen Dafa has never seen such an arrogant person in the army for so many years, although he didn't dare to move forward in person, he ordered his subordinates to cut that person into pulp, and the thief army moved forward, Wu Zhong turned around and killed several people for a while, and then dragged the knife and walked a few steps, and suddenly inserted the knife into the ground and rested according to the handle of the knife!
This Nima! It's so arrogant! The thief army was really shocked and angry when he saw this, how did he know that Wu Zhong was really tired at this time, you must know that the heavy armor on his body and the long knife in his hand are nearly 100 catties, if there is a war horse to carry the weight, it is good to rely on his legs to support him in the mud at this time.
"Kill him for Lao Tzu, kill him......" Chen Dafa saw that the nearest officers and soldiers were still dozens of meters away from here, so he quickly killed this person while he was alone, otherwise it would be a serious disaster! The thieves around him listened to the order and swarmed towards Wuzhong, and at this time, they also saw that this heavily armored man was exhausted, and it was a good time to kill him.
it, Wu Zhong saw the thief army surrounding him again, and gritted his teeth angrily, if it weren't for the heavy armor and the muddy mud on the ground that consumed too much of his physical strength, these dog thieves would not be afraid of more, but now, ...... He had no choice but to pull out the long knife stuck in the ground with both hands, and scolded and greeted the thief army.
"This guy has no strength, hack him to death" The thief army swarmed up, Wu Zhong was weak and the empty door was opened in the blink of an eye, and more than ten knives would have been taken care of in the blink of an eye, if it were not for heavy armor to defend himself, he would have stopped cooking, but he was also completely enraged, and shouted angrily: "Lao Tzu has long been enough, kill one more and earn one"
This man is very fierce! Chen Dafa suddenly felt a little pity in his heart, if such a fierce man was recruited under his command...... Forget it, this kind of person will not commit to others at all, at least not because he can control it, so it is better to kill it...... As soon as the thought arose, I suddenly heard the sound of killing behind me!
Killing? In this radius of several miles, the two armies fought each other, shouting and scolding, shouting and moaning, and the various sounds were mixed with each other to form a sound that could only be found on the battlefield, but how could this killing sound come from behind?
Chen Dafa turned his head to look behind him with a chill in his heart, and saw hundreds of officers and soldiers rushing to the southeast of the Qingshan River 100 meters away, wielding swords and killing them, and there were hundreds of officers and soldiers crossing the river behind him...... This! This is an ambush!
It turned out that the officers and soldiers in front did not abandon their horses and fight on foot, but lay the cavalry behind them!
It seems that the information is wrong!
Damn it! Chen Dafa had no time to care about the life or death of the heavily armored soldier at this time, and hurriedly organized the surrounding thief army to meet the officers and soldiers behind him, knowing that if he was one step late, he might be attacked by his front and back, and there were rivers on both flanks and there was nowhere to escape...... At this time, the military quality of his veteran was immediately presented, although he was panicked but not chaotic, although he was ambushed, but the other party was cavalry, the weather and terrain were not conducive to cavalry combat, as long as it was dealt with properly, it was not easy to say who would die, looking at the battle situation, although it was not as big as the advantage at the beginning of the war, but the officers and soldiers were still evenly divided, it was obvious that the opponent was a young man who had just entered the battlefield, and at this time the five hundred elite soldiers could be transferred to the rear to meet the officers and soldiers in ambush, As long as the officers and soldiers in the rear are resisted, even if the front battle loses the upper hand, they can stabilize the battle situation and have a chance to turn the tables, even if they can't stop themselves, they can still retreat calmly under the protection of 500 elite soldiers, as for how many cannon fodder in front of them died, what is the pity.
Besides, Jin Shenghuan was ordered to ambush early in the morning, and led his troops to cross the river to Daqingshan in the southeast of the city, this mountain is surrounded by water on three sides, and it is very secret, more than 1,000 cavalry went to the woods at the foot of the mountain to find a place to rest, but could not sleep steadily, after all, rain and humidity inevitably caused mosquito attacks, and more importantly, in the face of the upcoming battlefield, the soldiers were very nervous.
"Most of the thieves are homeless people, usually they are good at robbing their homes, but if they fight, hehe, it's not worth mentioning, when they will be in Jiangxi to suppress thieves, those thieves can't beat them and drill into the mountains, and when they are thieves in Xuzhou, they will chase them into the mountains and even the old nest will be ended...... Moreover, according to the report of the spies, this time the thief army was only more than 500 people, all of whom were homeless, but they were actually vulnerable, and we raided from behind...... It's an easy battle! ”
Jin Shenghuan worked very hard to motivate morale, talking about his many years of experience in suppressing bandits, and the soldiers listened to it with relish, and unconsciously nervous for a while, their morale rose, and even some soldiers couldn't help but rub their hands and wanted to start fighting immediately.
Where the heart goes, the golden stone is open! Soon the spies hidden on the riverbank came to report: the fight has started, and the officers and soldiers have taken the initiative to attack!
Jin Shenghuan couldn't help but be stunned when he heard the news, why did he take the initiative to kill him, it seems that this little eunuch is also an anxious person, but at this time he has no time to dwell on these haves and don'ts, according to the prior agreement, once he starts fighting, he will immediately cross the Qingshan River west from the back of the thief army**.
The place to cross the river has long been chosen, the river is flat and shallow, after more than 1,000 cavalry crossed the river under the leadership of Jin Shenghuan to raid the thief army, they invited to see the fierce killing of the two armies in the rain curtain in the distance, but Jin Shenghuan frowned, I was afraid that the little eunuch would make a mistake, and at this time, the time and place here are not suitable for cavalry combat! His ambush army will be more than half of its combat effectiveness compared to the usual one!
But fortunately, the morale of this will be high, and with a single drum of strength, the front and rear flanking attacks may be able to defeat the thief army in one fell swoop, but Jin Shenghuan didn't know at this time that he was about to face the real thief army, and it was the elite of the thief army, although it was only 500 troops!
The art of war is cloudy, and it will decline and exhaust once it is vigorous.
The 3,000 soldiers and horses led by Lu Daqi were full of confidence under the chicken soup and the agitated generals, and the momentum was like a tiger in the mountains, crossing the river and directly fighting with the thief army, but when the officers and soldiers found that these thief troops were not so useless as they said when they were mobilized, the situation was a little unfavorable under the fear, and they had to go into the battle to stimulate morale under the circumstance that Lu Daqi personally killed the morale, and when the situation turned slightly and was indistinguishable, he suddenly heard that the rear ambush arrived, and the morale of the officers and soldiers rose sharply, and the battlefield situation changed immediately when the elite of the thief army was transferred to the rear to resist the rear ambush. The thief army was defeated but precarious, and it was only a matter of time before it was defeated without an accident.
Chang Yu had already gone out of the city to cross the river at this time to watch the battle in person, and the first thing he saw after crossing the river was not the cruelty on the battlefield, but the corpses of more than 100 officers and soldiers, these people were not killed in battle, but by their own people.
To be exact, they were killed by Chang Yu's personal guards, the reason is very simple, they were afraid of the battle and even fled in fear!
"It's just that, it's a bit of a surprise!" Chang Yu glanced at the corpses that were either cut by knives or arrows, and shook his head lightly with an expressionless face, while Li Muxian was a little sad: "It's a pity after all."
"As a soldier, it's not a pity to die if you don't move forward in battle!" Chang Yu's tone was cold, and he was getting closer and closer to the battlefield by fighting his horse and moving forward, and he was able to advance towards the battlefield with his personal guards.
