Chapter 154: The Great War (4)

Outside the county town of Liangchuan County, it was quiet.

Wang Hongyi's army did not go outside the city in a big way, but the nearby caravans had already received news from the Shu army, and they no longer dared to borrow a road from Liangchuan County.

In case of being involved in the war, not only is it difficult to protect the goods, but it is also difficult to save your own life, even if the military discipline in Shuzhong is good. What should I do if I encounter a rogue soldier?

A businessman would never make such a stupid mistake.

It's just that. The place that was attacked by the Shu army was not so quiet, and almost in one day, "green smoke drifted from several directions."

In the county town chamber.

Guo Wentong sat at the top, wearing a golden armor, and the whole person looked majestic.

Under Guo Wentong, there were subordinates who stood with him. and Xu Yu, the general of Liangchuan County, and others.

Looking at Guo Wentong, who was sitting next to him, Xu Yu's expression was a little complicated.

Guo Wentong was able to lead an army of 30,000 to come, which was a reassuring pill for the people of Liangchuan County. Even a fierce general like Xu Yu is happy in his heart.

Although Xu Yu was straightforward, he was not stupid, and naturally knew that with the thousands of people under his command, it was unrealistic to want to block Wang Hongyi's 50,000 Shu army. Now there are 40,000 people, and the soldiers are strong and strong, even if the enemy is only riding a huge stone cart, it is difficult to break through.

After all, the gap between 40,000 people and 10,000 concubines is not that big.

At this moment, Guo Wentong has been taken out of Xu Yu's mouth. Knowing some of Shu Jun's recent actions, the expression on his face was very calm, but there was a faint look of doubt.

For the various behaviors of the Shu army, it is out of the intuition of war. He always felt that there was something wrong with it.

But the strength and attack of the Shu army are obviously not false. An army of 50,000 is indeed quite a lot, and the difference is very limited. It's not the so-called empty city plan, empty camp plan.

It is also true that the two counties have already been surrendered by the army.

The Shu army has not yet reached Liangchuan County to attack the city at this time, which is undoubtedly not bad news for Guo Wentong, although it took little time for Guo Wentong to mobilize troops and horses, but Wang Hongyi launched an attack earlier, which is undoubtedly unfavorable for Guo Wentong.

The immobility of the Shu army made Guo Wentong feel faintly uneasy at this time.

Guo Wentong gathered 40,000 troops to fight a decisive battle with Wang Hongyi "Wang Hongyi's Shu army is only 50,000, Guo Wentong himself occupies a geographical advantage, Guo Wentong has no bottom in his heart for this war.

And the thunderbolt that Wang Hongyi would use every time he attacked the city and plundered the land, made Guo Wentong very jealous: "This time the Shu army comes to attack Qinchuan, will it use this thing?"

What are the effects of using this product?

Although Liangchuan County was captured by him, it was only a short time after it was collected, and many things are difficult to estimate.

Of the 30,000 soldiers and horses he brought this time, 10,000 of them are not considered recruits, but they are not elite soldiers.

These soldiers are "usually soldiers of the county", but they have only been trained in the county.

In fact, he has not been on the battlefield a few times, and he can still exert a lot of combat effectiveness in a smooth battle, but once he encounters difficulties, "his will to fight and combat effectiveness" are really worrying.

The soldiers under Guo Wentong's account "were originally veterans, and when taken out individually, their physical fitness, strength, and combat skills were not comparable to ordinary men, but when attacking Liangchuan County, they suffered a lot of losses." In Qinchuan's old nest, a group of men and horses need to be left to defend again, so they can only bring some new soldiers out.

If these soldiers and Wang Hongyi's Shu army fight hard, it is really difficult to say the final victory or defeat.

While Guo Wentong was thinking, a sound of footsteps came quickly from outside.

"Report!"

"Go check it out. Guo Wentong said to the attendant standing beside him. The man respectfully answered and walked out.

After a while, he came back and reported: "Lord, it is the scouts in the army who have come back to report on military affairs!"

"Let him in. The dull atmosphere was suddenly broken, Guo Wentong raised his head and said.

"Yes, Lord. ”

After a while, the scout flew into the meeting hall, and as soon as he saw Guo Wentong in the seat, he immediately bowed down and reported: "Marshal, I just got the news that the Shu army has crossed Zhanshan County, and it is only eighty miles away from the county seat. ”

"Really?" Guo Wentong's nerves tightened.

However, if you want to come, you also know that the Shu army will not be so silent all the time, and it will always come.

"Presumably Wang Hongyi already knows that Ben Shuai is here, since this is the case, then let's see, who is the hero!" Guo Wentong at this moment could no longer hide the anger in his heart, slapped the armrest of the seat next to him, and stood up.

"Hmph! Wang family child, you are also too deceitful! Do you really think that Qin Di is so easy to enter and exit! Ben Shuai wants to see what kind of ability you have, you can take Ben Shuai's Qin Chuan!"

"Didn't the Wang family Xiao'er want to occupy Guanzhong? Let's let him take a look at the majesty of Guanzhong Erlang!" sweeping the generals seated, Guo Wentong said loudly, at this moment, the pride that originally belonged to the first prince of Guanzhong returned to Guo Wentong's body.

"The lord is heroic!" Guo Dongtong's generals hurriedly responded, and Xu Yu was even more excited. I felt my blood boiling, "This is my lord."

Chang Huaiyuan, the advisor on the side, seemed to be thinking with his head down, his face was somewhat subtle.

He originally wanted to say something, but when he saw that the morale of the lord's envoys and generals was greatly boosted, he immediately kept silent.

Always have to confront and fight with the Shu army, even so, this morale is greatly boosted, and it cannot be vented.

The Shu army came quickly, and the 50,000 Shu army soon arrived at the county seat.

At this time, the sun is shining, standing on a high wall, and dozens of miles around are in front of you.

Shu army camp. The Chinese army can be seen. Countless red flags lingered, showing layers of Shu troops, all full of morale, especially terrifying, this list of phalanxes, stepping neatly, tens of thousands of people stepped forward, converging into a thunderous roar.

This torrent-like array, two miles away from the city, a tsunami-like voice came from the Shu army array: "My lord wins!"

In the cheers, the Chinese army moved slowly, only to see tens of thousands of people working together, just a moment, a mud post was built, and the middle camp of the Shu army was stationed.

After a while, the battalions were stationed, and the order was clear, and the camp was solid. Rely on each other.

Guo Wentong stood on top of the city tower, looking into the distance, his face was gloomy, "The momentum of the Shu army really surprised him, and he thought to himself: "I don't want this son to really become the climate." ”

"Lord, the Shu army is coming very fiercely!" Chang Huaiyuan stood beside him, "He also looked into the distance and said in his mouth.

Guo Wentong turned his head and glanced at him: "Sir, do you have a clever plan to withdraw from the army?"

Wang Hongyi came with a rainbow of momentum this time, and he was really not sure that he would withdraw from the army. Chang Huaiyuan smiled bitterly and said.

"This is gone, there is no way to retreat, only a war. Although Wang Hongyi had 50,000 Shu troops. But Ben Shuai also has 40,000 Qin troops, and he fights according to the city, "He will definitely be able to repel them!" But he is really the same as a mediocre person, he is afraid of the Shu army and blindly fears the enemy, so he will really make the world laugh at Ben Shuai!" Guo Wentong said with a gloomy face.

In the afternoon, the Shu army came to the city. Shouting and shouting. This was actually the default vanguard, testing each other's strength, so in less than a moment, a drum sounded, the gates were opened, and three thousand troops "were slaughtered from the county." The general before the set" is none other than Xu Yu. Behind him, there were also two young generals. Just when the two armies began to fight, in the Shu army a few miles away, Wang Hongyi said to Zhang Youzhi beside him: "As expected, Guo Wentong sent people out of the city to fight. Zhang Qing, and Gu went to the high slope to take a look?"

"The minister obeyed. "Tired soil into a platform" is more than ten meters high. And when they went up, they saw a great city in the distance, and two armies on the flat ground outside the city.

"Prepared along the way?" Wang Hongyi looked in the direction of the county town and asked a person behind him.

"Five hundred horses ready!" replied the man respectfully.

"That's good, this time the army is just a test of the two armies to test each other, which is a default rule. But if there is a problem, there will be cavalry!" Wang Hongyi listened, nodded, and looked intently.

The venue was silent, and it was Chai Jia who appeared, ordering: "Our army advances!"

"Forward!" in the shouts of the officers. Just listen to the neat sound of "whoosh". Pikemen, sword and shield soldiers, and archers are all marching in formation!

The marching drums beat. To the beat of the drums, the soldiers in the middle of the unit began to move slowly.

"Forward!" was the sound of neat footsteps.

Seeing this, Xu Yu's heart sank, but he sneered and said: "Our army is advancing!"

Similarly, the three thousand Qin troops stepped forward. This one is all about combat bravery.

Stepping forward to a certain distance, all of a sudden, the two armies shouted almost simultaneously: "Kill!"

For a time, the flags were unfurled, the sound of killing was everywhere, and the two armies were fighting fiercely. The two rolling iron streams collided with each other, red-eyed each other, fought each other to install, and people kept falling and people filling in.

In ancient times, with a little more scale, after the battle began, "the main general could not command everything."

The command phalanx was so tight that it was basically impossible.

"It is as fast as the wind, as slow as a forest, as plundering as fire, as immobile as a mountain, as difficult as a cloud, and as moving as thunder." If you talk about the overall quality. Or before the battle. But that wasn't possible. can only maintain the battle formation for the most part!

For the sake of the superior. This is just a temptation, and Wang Hongyi and Guo Wentong are watching at the moment.

After looking at it for a while, Wang Hongyi's eyes flashed, and the guns and arrays he trained still played the most basic use, but there were obvious flaws. In the confrontation, it is difficult to achieve coordination and cohesion, and the gap is often opened.

Once the gap is opened, the spearmen who do not turn will be slaughtered one-sidedly, but with the sword and shield soldiers and the bow battalion, this is not a big problem. The real big problem is that once the formation is broken, the inexperience of the soldiers of the Shu army can be easily seen, and the enemy army from time to time has experienced old soldiers to cooperate before and after, block and slash, grasp the rhythm and strength, and break the small formations one by one, and then the Shu army will be chaotic and slashed.

Of course, the strength of the small array of the Shu army is also very strong, as long as it is not chaotic. The small formations attacked together and assassinated the enemy one after another.

Just for a moment. The corpses of friend and foe were piled up in a staggered manner. However, the non-commissioned officer system of the Shu army still played a role, even if the formation was broken, there was still a call for non-commissioned officers, and the soldiers were integrated to varying degrees.

"Our army's military system is above the Qin army, but the veterans are insufficient!" Seeing that there was a tie and there was no need to consume soldiers, Wang Hongyi ordered: "Collect the troops!" Suddenly, the battalion collected troops, and almost at the same time, Guo Wentong stood on the city tower and saw clearly. sighed, waved his hand and said, "Collect the troops!"

When Xu Yu heard the call to collect the troops, he had to shout: "Retreat!"

The two armies slowly retreated, leaving a corpse in the middle, and the two armies began to tacitly collect the corpse again, Xu Yu returned to the city, because of the victory and defeat in this battle, Xu Yu was reprimanded by Guo Wentong, retreated to the side, and was not punished, but even so, Xu Yu's face was a little hot. !~!
