Chapter Eighty-Nine: The Battle of Fan County
Wei Guo Lejin is like a mad tiger in the fight, which is well known in the Cao army, seeing that the gap in Zhang Nian's army is exposed, he did not wait for Li Quan, who is the main general, to give an order, and immediately led his subordinates to rush up and rush out.
Zhang Nian was shocked, seeing that the Li family soldiers gave up the gap, and thought that the enemy army commander had an accident in the command of the battle array, how did he expect the gap to open, without waiting for him to fill in the soldiers and horses, he saw that the enemy rushed out of the gap and rushed out of a foot pawn, wearing a big iron pocket for the leader, wearing a muddy iron armor, holding a two-handed big ring knife and hanging a thick drumstick at the waist, the battle array charge was invincible, tearing open the front and shouting, then swinging the knife to the banner of the Chinese army to kill!
Is he Lejin?
Hearing that loud shout, Zhang Nian felt a little clear in his heart. Le Jin is Cao Cao's Yanbei has personally praised the fierce general, if they get along in a different place, Zhang Nian, who is also a military general, should have a sense of eagerness to try, but although he is not afraid of Le Jin, but he is more afraid of the leader of the Li family's soldiers, and immediately ordered his subordinates to shoot the soldiers of the Le Jin Department with arrows.
In the midst of a scream, hundreds of arrows shot the sergeants of the Lejin Division severely, and in the blink of an eye, many sergeants were knocked to the ground, and many light soldiers were delayed by the left and right Zhang Mill troops during the assault, forming a local disadvantage of having fewer enemies and more enemies.
Le Jin's body was shot two arrows, he was wearing iron armor, Zhang Nian's subordinates sent a sound of dysprosis penetration is not as good as the ordinary arrow clusters, just shot at Le Jin's arrows more than ten times, most of them are blocked by the big armor on his body, even if there are two nails into the armor, but it did not have any impact on Le Jin, but is more ferocious, the thick drumstick around the waist smashed over the bullying and wanted to block several heavy armored foot soldiers, jumped to the banner of the Chinese army.
The so-called killing of generals and capture the flag, the first achievement in the attack is to kill the enemy generals, so the most intuitive result is to destroy the enemy's command, thousands or even tens of thousands of soldiers and horses without subordinates, will be reduced to a mass of scattered sand. A rout of an army may not make an army lose its combat strength, but it is rare to lose a general who can still protect the army.
However, the main generals are all protected by their own soldiers, and it is often more difficult to capture the first rank of the generals in the army.
In fact, it is the same thing to kill and capture the flag, otherwise it would not be juxtaposed. In the melee, the soldiers could not rely on their mouths to transmit military orders, and the faster and better were the flags they saw with their eyes and the golden drums they heard with their ears. Especially in the melee, the soldiers can't distinguish whether their own side is an advantage or a disadvantage, but as long as they hurriedly look back and see that their own Chinese army banner is still standing, they have the backbone and dare to continue fighting.
War is a confrontation of wills wrapped in steel, flesh and bones.
Seeing that Le Jin was about to run to the banner, and the left and right soldiers could not be controlled, Zhang Nian could no longer hide behind the soldiers to command the battle, and shouted: "Anyone who can hold a knife will come with me and stop these Yanzhou shafters!" ”
The battle on this side was in full swing, and even due to Lejin's surprise attack, it was full of dangers, but in the distance, the Chen Palace on the mountainside gradually changed from solemn to happy...... For no other reason, Chen Gong saw two armies of soldiers and horses rushing from the northeast and northwest directions, obviously hearing the reinforcements that Fang Cai Zhang released and arrived.
These two troops and horses one more and one less, the northeast galloped to Zhang Nian in the Liaodong Academy with the same sacrifice of humble piety, famous for leading the army strategy, his scouts in the hearing Ming Di rushed to report, he only then knew that Zhang Nian was in charge of the battle, so that the situation was critical to release Ming Di, immediately left two thousand soldiers to stay in the camp to lay down a trench, in order to meet Zhang Nian, and then immediately picked up three thousand soldiers to rush to the rescue.
There were slightly fewer soldiers in the northwest, but they were all cavalry, and the leader was the reluctant Wuhuan chieftain Gujin. Gu Jin first attacked the Southern Xiongnu from Jiang Jin, and then Jiang Jin returned to Youzhou after going south, and after less than half a year of rest, he was invited south to Yanzhou by Bun Dun again...... His subordinates have suffered too many casualties in the battle for Yanbei.
This time he belonged to the general Yan Rou's subordinates, some time ago Yan Zhi led the troops to Puyang, he was unwilling to follow, in his opinion, whether it was the main force of the Cao army over there, it was inevitable that there would be a big battle, and he didn't want to do thankless things. But in the end, he couldn't avoid sending troops, this time Yan Rou's scattered stragglers outside received the news and ordered Hu Bu, who was camped on the left, to go to the rescue, Gu Jin looked left and right, and only his subordinates were camped in Fan County, so the boss reluctantly led the cavalry to run.
"Wow! The army of the Yanzhou people is not small! ”
Gu Jin led the troops to arrive, and seeing that Zhang Nian's troops had been defeated and retreated, he hurriedly ordered the cavalry to circle around the battlefield, releasing two volleys from time to time, as if looking for an opportunity to break into the enemy formation.
Don't get me wrong, Gu Jin didn't plan to rush in, he was just weighing the pros and cons, and the galloping horse made two laps around the periphery, and then he raised his saber and laughed: "This is not the regular army of the Cao Army at all, it is just a group of rabble who defeated Zhang Nian, haha!" Summon, let them know how powerful our Wuhuan warriors are! ”
In fact, at this time, even if Gu Jin is just wandering outside the formation, it can bring great pressure to Li Quan, and the inferiority complex leads the troops to join the battlefield from the front, and the strength advantage of the Li family soldiers has been neutralized, although Le Jin's breakthrough into the formation is to create an advantage, but it also brings a lot of pressure to the rest of the friendly army, and at this time, there is a group of cavalry like steppe wolves in the rear, which is to block the retreat of the Li soldiers.
What's more, at this time, even if Li Quan wants to withdraw his troops, it will be too late, unless he is willing to give up Lejin who is trapped in the formation, which is obviously impossible.
"Man Cheng, lead the troops to welcome General Le out, we are going to withdraw the army."
Li Quan's cousin Li Dian promised to lead a group of soldiers and horses along the passage where Lejin rushed in. At this time, Le Jin in the formation was even more anxious, of course he knew what the situation was outside the formation, even if he couldn't see it, he could hear how excited these Youzhou people were shouting left and right, it must be that the battle situation had changed, but he was entangled by Zhang, and there were constantly soldiers pouring into the formation, so that he couldn't advance or retreat.
Since he couldn't get out, Le Jin simply raised his knife and broke it, and ordered the soldiers who followed him to kill a way backwards, and he raised his knife to meet the pursuing Zhang Nian to fight in one place.
Zhang Nian thought that this would force Le Jin out of his will to die, and when he met Sanhe, he suddenly realized that he was not Le Jin's opponent, and hurriedly shouted the name of Beiyan and retreated.
Where is Lejin born the will to die, this is the will to kill him!
But at this time, the two generals gathered, and they were both foot battles, where could they still run away? Beiyan led the army outside the formation and Zhang Nian's soldiers and horses together, holding more than 6,000 soldiers and horses to stabilize the army's heart, just had the opportunity to gallop into the Chinese army, while seeing Zhang Nian shouting his name and running away, he was chased behind Le Jin jumped up and smashed on the top, and the iron pockets were concave, red and white!
