0784 The slave army was defeated

On the riverbank, with a large number of Huainan troops on the foothold, the army formation spread out layer upon layer, although there are slave troops in the surrounding slave camps under the order of the commander to reinforce here, but have lost half of the attack plane.

"Rush, rush! The southerners are impatient with field battles, and they are beheaded to double the merit! ”

The slave generals haunted the ranks, shouting hoarsely, and the army rushed towards the Huainan army after a little rectification.

The southerners are impatient with field battles, and it is already the common sense cognition of the slave army, so although the battlefield has approached the main formation, and even the camps have been broken through, when they hear these announcements from the generals, it still makes these slave soldiers who have been repeatedly turbulent feel a little calm.

But whether it works or not, the slave soldiers don't have any more hope at the moment. Previously, the Huainan army shouted that the slave master was dead, although it caused a certain amount of turmoil in the army's heart, but it was limited after all, for most of the soldiers, the slave master Shi Le was dead or alive, it was too alienated, but the victory or defeat of the current battle was painful. Especially at present, the battle situation is completely at a disadvantage, and whether or not to defeat the enemy army in Huainan has become a matter of life and death in front of every soldier.

So even if there is no urging from the slave generals, the slave soldiers who are on the front line at this moment are all fighting hard. And the fact that the southerners are not good at field warfare has become the only hope for many slave soldiers to persevere. Repelling the surging offensive of the southerners is no longer a question of whether they have merit or not, but a matter of their own life and death.

The slave army thus realized that the front line could still organize stubborn resistance. And this is one of the reasons why Shen Zhezi still wanted to launch the final decisive battle when he knew that it was reasonable to return to his master and not stop it. There are many factors that determine the outcome of a war, whether the general is brave or not, whether the general is brave and good at fighting, and whether the battle situation is favorable, but in the actual war, after all, it still depends on whether each soldier has the intention of victory.

The southerners are not good at field warfare, and in many cases it is just a simple statement, but when it is implemented in specific battles, it is a denial of the struggle of tens of millions of soldiers. In this world, there is no invincible division, and there is no invincible battle, no matter how exquisite the military concept, whether or not it can be meritorious still depends on the specific implementation of each soldier.

Lie down and taste the gall, three thousand Yuejia can swallow Wu! Break the cauldron and sink the boat, 8,000 children will destroy Qiang Qin! If it is really a fight for his life, the puppet can still ambush the two corpses, whether he is good at fighting, how can it be a conclusion with just one or two gossips! The southerners have never been weak, and Hu Lu is by no means an invincible heavenly general, and the long-term decline of the country's power and Hanzuo is more often just the inaction of those in power, and should not be used as the only criterion for measuring the combat strength of the north and the south!

If it rises to the strategic level, there is no doubt that Jiangdong will have an absolute advantage. Although the state of Qian is powerful, it has countless drawbacks and contradictions, especially at this moment, the slave owner Shile has died, and the front-line generals have no will to fight. However, if Jiangdong wants to win the final victory, it still depends on whether every soldier can fight to the death, use iron and blood to prove the name of bravery, and use the bones of slave soldiers to show great power to the world!

Whether or not everyone is confident in this kind of implementation is no longer a strategic advantage that can be established, but can only be bred through real military exploits and results. The knife is not a famous knife, but the heroic is unparalleled in this world! Ambition is immortal, even if iron can open the sky! There are too many heroes in the world, it is the sorrow of the whole world, and once it will be successful, even if it is a historian like a huge pen in the rafters, how can he write everyone's joys and sorrows, joys and sorrows?

Shen Zhezi has never had the courage to break new ground, and he wants to rely on his own strength to pull the entire world forward, and all the efforts he has made are to strive for a relatively fair situation for the current world! And whether it can open up the world or not, it is by no means one or two people who can plan ambitiously, and the five thousand years are divided and combined, and the truly heinous ones are only kings and tyrants. At all times, the people do their best to find a way to survive, but many times, their efforts or direction deviate, doomed to no result, or a small force is difficult to stop the general trend, and eventually will sink with the world.

Today's performance of the Huainan Army's battle formation did not disappoint Shen Zhezi's painstaking solitude, nor did it let the slave soldiers' delusions come true. Whether it is the generals in the battle or the soldiers on the front line, they all burst out with high and blazing fighting spirit.

"We are all ordinary people, and we dare not peep into the will of heaven. However, the ancestors of the Central Plains are in their homeland, and Hu Lu lives in a fierce and stealing place, and there is no such reason in the world, and the strong man can hardly bear this hatred! The bird flies home, and the fox dies. The blood and tears of the people, only killing can be stopped! Sangzi's homeland, fight for your life! Hu Lu took his own way to death, and today he will repay him with death! Raising the soul for torture, can you know that there is no shortage of heroes in China? ”

At this time, there was still a period of time before dawn, and according to the original plan, it was not the moment for the cavalry to attack, but after receiving the letter from Xiao Yuandong in the front, Shen Zhezi made a decision and ordered the cavalry brigade that was recuperating in the field to immediately mount their horses and rush straight to the battlefield ahead.

Thousands of horses galloped, with a momentum like a rainbow, and soon found the enemy's traces in the wilderness. A large number of slave troops flooded the field, there was no formation at all, at the beginning of the front of the rangers were still leading the string to shoot, but after finding that these routs had lost even the basic counterattack power, even the bow and arrow were omitted, directly galloped horses, galloping horses' hooves chiseled the ground, the sound of horses' hooves in the field to spread to all directions, those slave soldiers who were running out of the field, soon trampled by iron hooves into a pool of bloody mud!

The cavalry rushed into the battlefield, which exacerbated the collapse of the slave army, and at this time the slave army in the rout, some of them still maintained the basic organizational strength and fled as a whole, and naturally became the focus of the Huainan army.

During the pursuit, some slave soldiers simply surrendered with their heads hugged, and some of them were brought to Shen Zhezi, and after some torture, they also understood the composition of these fleeing people.

"Continue to pursue, where there is a crowd gathered, break it directly!"

Shen Zhezi summoned Shen Mu and divided his 2,000 cavalry, although the west bank of the vortex was mainly a Xiongnu rout, but Shen Zhezi did not intend to let them go, signaling Shen Mu to chase them to the end, and never let these slave soldiers have another chance to organize. As for himself, he led the rest of the cavalry and headed straight for the whirlpool.

At this time, the west camp of the vortex, due to the large-scale rout of the original defenders, has been occupied by the Huainan army effortlessly, and more than 1,000 sailors landed and went around the camp to clear the remaining Kou. Due to the haste of his escape, most of the facilities in the battalion were intact and could be directly used as a base for the soldiers to recuperate.

When Shen Zhezi led the cavalry to the west bank of the whirlpool, there was no longer an organized slave army in the camp here, and it was completely occupied by the Huainan army. The war on the east bank is still raging, and the floating girdles built by the slave army on the vortex have been set on fire by the slave army on the east bank, but this can no longer cause trouble to the Huainan army. When a large number of soldiers landed to fight, many warships were vacated, and more than a dozen of them directly broke through the burning wreckage of the pontoons, breaking through the barriers and heading upstream.

Another part of the empty boats are moored directly on the river, the two wings are connected to each other, and the thick wooden bamboo rafts are paved, which instantly becomes a wide pontoon bridge.

The Huainan army rushed here, except for a small number of people who stayed on the shore to clear the remnants, the rest all stepped on the pontoon bridge and rushed straight to the opposite side.

At this time, the east bank of the vortex mouth has long ceased to be a well-fortified appearance, and the slave soldiers who were originally scattered in various camps have already been mobilized, either gathered near the main camp of Shihu, or participated in the battle against the landing of the Huainan army.

Whether the southerners are good at field warfare or not, today's Huainan army gave the slave army a definite answer. At the forefront of the battle between the two armies was a formation of 3,000 foot soldiers, all of whom were armed with spears and spears up to two feet long. And after the lance array, there is a larger archery team, strong bows and crossbows in a volley, those slave soldiers in the front formation have not yet come into contact with the military array, the casualties have increased sharply, the corpses are piled up in the field, and even the first layer of the lance array has not yet broken through!

And the opposing slave army has long been intimidated by the high morale of the Huainan Army at this moment, even if it is restrained by the commanders and generals, it has begun to appear a large-scale rout. Almost every slave soldier was thrown into battle, and the rear had to be driven by an equal number or even multiple of the camp guards.

The only stable counterattack point is the arrow towers erected between the camps, but due to the lack of support, many arrow towers have already shot empty arrows at this time, and they have been completely reduced to decorations, and the soldiers located in the rear of the battle line can still retreat from the battlefield in a hurry, as for those in the direct danger formation, they are directly dismantled by the roots, and the soldiers trapped in it will naturally disappear into the formation, and they will not be spared.

At this moment, Shi Hu had already left the camp and stood on the high ground in the rear surrounded by thousands of soldiers. Although it is not yet dawn at this moment, the war is everywhere, and the field of vision is not limited. But Shi Hu at the moment hopes that his vision is blocked and he can't see through the battle situation, this is really not an exciting picture, these Chinese soldiers and soldiers he has high hopes for are not brave, but the attack of the southerners is steadily pushed forward, and it is difficult to resist it at all.

Especially on the river bank after the battlefield, a large number of southerners and boats docked on the shore, and the soldiers continued to fill the battle array. Failing to block the breakthrough that the big ship had smashed into at the first time, the southerners steadily advanced to the shore on this basis, and from less than 1,000 at the beginning, it has now expanded into a huge battle formation of nearly 10,000 people, and it is completely impossible to drive them into the water.

"Please return to the rear and reorganize the army to fight again, we will fight with all our strength and stop the southern thieves here."

After ordering thousands of soldiers into the battle, the slave general Ma Qiu hurriedly walked here and said in a low voice. However, both the speaker and the listener knew that this was not the superficial meaning, and that the southerners' offensive was so fierce that everyone knew that there was no reason to defend the vortex, and that the moment had come when they had to retreat. In fact, if it weren't for the landing operation of the Nanren Naval Army and the lack of mobility, Shi Hu would never dare to stand in the rear at this moment. Because it is no longer a question of whether or not they can stabilize the morale of the army, it is whether their lives can be saved!

Tens of thousands of slave soldiers in the Chinese army, previously divided into 8,000 troops led by Shi Di back to defend Pengcheng, today put nearly 20,000 people into the front, but at this time there are less than 10,000 people still fighting in the battle array, in addition to the descendants directly led by the generals, there are only a few thousand who are really fighting in front of the battle. The real casualties could not have been so large, and those missing centaurs should have fled into the wilderness by this moment.

Hearing Ma Qiu say this, Shi Hu opened his mouth, but his throat seemed to be blocked by thick phlegm, the corners of his mouth moved a few times, but there was only a strange sound in his mouth that even he didn't know what it meant. At this moment, another soldier rushed to the rear and shouted in panic: "King, the earth city has been broken by the southern thieves!" ”

"How...... How so? ”

Shi Hu's mind was already in chaos at this time, and he didn't react for a while after hearing the words, but he subconsciously felt that something was wrong, the southerners had already invested so many troops on the frontal battlefield, how could they still have the strength to attack from the back?

"It should be the southern thief Xuzhou Army...... King, this battle is no longer sustainable, please retreat quickly and return to a safe place! ”

The slave general Ma Qiu said quickly, his tone anxious and dry.

As soon as Ma Qiu's voice fell, there was a rapid sound of horses' hooves in the northwest, this is naturally not the reinforcement of the slave army, although the Chinese army gathered a large army, but a considerable part of the horsepower has been taken away by Shi Di, and the remaining part has also been left in the rear Tucheng, there are only more than a thousand in the army, and they are all near Shihu at the moment. The sound of horses' hooves from that direction was the only possibility, the cavalry of the Southerners had already arrived on the battlefield.

"Ahem...... Ordered the generals to withdraw the next time, and gather troops in Pengcheng to return to the country in the coming day! ”

Shi Hu finally gave up struggling again, took off his armor and pushed it into Ma Qiu's arms, and said astringently: "Stay this useful body, come to peace and stability in the country, and then come to kill the southern thief, and repay this great hatred!" ”

With that, he mounted his horse with the support of his own soldiers and whipped away.
