Chapter 487: On the Ups and Downs of Life
In the forest, both the cavalry of the Liao State and the soldiers of the An Dynasty held their breath. ()
This is the calm before the storm, the sign before the storm!
Now, the Liao State's encirclement of the soldiers of the An Dynasty has entered the final stage, and only the two groups of Liao soldiers near the periphery of the forest converge, so the encirclement is even formed!
Once the encirclement is formed, it will be a one-sided killing!
The soldiers of the An Dynasty also slowly got closer together, and they knew that in such a situation, it was almost impossible to survive!
Whether it's hiding in the grass or bushes, or pretending to be dead, it's impossible!
Because the other side has more than 40,000 cavalry, if they want to kill them all, it won't take much time to turn over this forest and find it a few times!
As for surrender? Hehe...... Everyone knows that in such a situation, even if you surrender, it is a dead end!
Because the other party is the Liao army, and the other party's general is Meng Gongzuo!
Meng Gongzuo is not an extremely brutal and murderous person, but he ...... He is not a compassionate man, he only knows one thing, and that is what to do for his army!
If the cavalry wants speed, there must be no burden! And the prisoner is a burden for the cavalry!
So Meng Gongzuo will definitely not leave a living mouth!
And the cavalry of the An Dynasty obviously understood such habits of the Liao army very well, of course...... There are also some people who don't understand, they want to surrender, but they are pulled by the veterans of Taiyuan.
"Went to ...... Also die! ”
The veteran didn't explain much to them, but such a sentence was very useful!
Because at this time, who doesn't know that they are going to die soon?
And who isn't afraid?
What would you do if you were afraid?
Then we have to die together, and we have to die together!
Seeing that the momentum of the soldiers of the An Dynasty slowly changed, a strange light flashed in Meng Gongzuo's eyes.
He knew that the lambs in front of him seemed to be desperate, and then began to want to make a final effort and fight!
Four thousand remnant soldiers, to be honest, Meng Gongzuo didn't pay attention to it at all, so Meng Gongzuo planned to give these soldiers a chance to die with dignity!
Anyway, no matter how much the other party jumps, it is only 4,000 people, and what Meng Gong wants is to build a kind of self-confidence for the soldiers of his army!
Yes, confidence, absolute confidence!
He wants the soldiers of the Liao State to establish a sense of superiority over the soldiers of the An Dynasty in his heart, and he wants to let the knights of the Liao State not feel afraid even if they face more soldiers of the An Dynasty in the future!
If you want to kill, just kill it!
Therefore, Meng Gongzuo said to a thousand commanders beside him: "You, take three thousand men and horses, and cut off their heads!" ”
It's an affirmative tone, a tone that can't be questioned.
Meng Gongzuo didn't like his subordinates to refute his words, or put forward different opinions!
The commander of the thousand was overjoyed when he heard Meng Gongzuo's words, he couldn't have imagined that the coach actually chose him!
The other party now has at least 4,000 remnants, and these 4,000 remnants are equivalent to 4,000 merits for this commander, and with this credit, I am afraid that after this battle, I can be promoted to commander!
So the commander excitedly greeted his soldiers, and when he heard this, thousands of people immediately gathered around him.
At this time, Meng Gongzuo said to the other captain: "Give him another 2,000 men!" ”
The captain nodded, and with a wave of his hand, the number of people was enough!
Seeing the full 3,000 cavalry behind him, the commander smiled contentedly, and then his right hand was raised high, and after a pause for a few breaths, he was about to order the whole army to attack!
At this time, suddenly a bow and arrow broke through the air, and the commander was excited and excited, his hand slowly pushed forward, where would he have thought that hundreds of steps away, a bow and arrow actually shot in front of him?
"Poof...... The bow and arrow pierced the skin, and the blood immediately spurted out, and then the commander covered his neck with his hands in disbelief, and slowly fell backwards!
He didn't understand until he died, why he was in the army on his side, and he could still be hit by a cold arrow!
And...... Like Qin Feng, he has experienced the most exciting ups and downs in his life, but Qin Feng is from sadness to joy, and this commander is from joy to sadness!
This change disrupted the deployment and plan of the Liao army, and after the commander was hit by an arrow, the Liao army immediately took action to protect Meng Gongzuo.
At this time, there was a sudden shout of killing that shook the sky for two days, and a wave of cavalry suddenly poured into the forest! Looking at the armor on their bodies, it should be the cavalry of the An Dynasty, and on their military flags, there is a 'Di' character written on it!
"Is that him?" Meng Gongzuo was surprised, and then snorted coldly: "Di Qing? No wonder there is such arm strength and archery! Hum...... Something interesting, everyone withdraw! ”
After the order was given, Meng Gongzuo's soldiers began to retreat!
Because Meng Gongzuo didn't know how many men and horses Di Qing brought back this time, as a general, it was not worth the risk, especially in the forest, no better than in the plains, you can see the reality of the other party at a glance, and then decide whether to stand or retreat!
Besides, in the forest, you can't come and go freely and fight if you want to, and retreat if you want to, so Meng Gongzuo immediately gave the order to retreat!
As the world's No. 1 general, his courageous character is also one of the reasons for Meng Gongzuo's success!
Instant decision, this is the characteristic of Meng Gongzuo.
So this time, Meng Gongzuo immediately ordered the soldiers to retreat and minimize the losses as much as possible!
In this way, the Liao cavalry who had originally surrounded the periphery of the forest were left behind by Di Qing and the original An Dynasty army, about eight or nine thousand people!
Di Qing and the four thousand soldiers and horses who were originally trapped in the forest launched an attack on these eight or nine thousand people at the same time, as for Meng Gongzuo, Di Qing certainly wouldn't be so stupid, thinking that he could leave Meng Gongzuo behind!
Although Meng Gongzuo can't be left, it ...... It's okay to scare him, right?
I suddenly remembered that when I was in Shandong, I followed Lord Xiao, who said: "Fighting a war is actually playing psychological warfare, if you can bluff the opponent, then this battle will be much easier for you!" ”
Recalling Xiao Mo's words, the corners of Di Qing's mouth curled up slightly, and he laughed evilly.
He gave Qin Feng a look, and then said to his hundreds of guards: "Meng Gongzuo is about to run away, everyone chase after me, throw away all the swords and guns, only use bows and arrows, we will shoot arrows while chasing, and shout after me, take out the momentum, and scare them to death!" ”
After that, Di Qing took the lead and chased after the Liao army!
