Late Tang Dynasty Floating Life

Chapter 900 Drizzle

On the last day of March, the sun was shining brightly and the flowers were in full bloom.

On the high hills, there are many flags and flags, and the drums are rumbling.

The six-faced banner stands on the hillside, and there are crowds of people under the banner, with bright armor.

Thief Shao is here!Li Siben suddenly realized.It's a pity that he was slightly injured and unable to play.Otherwise, leading a team of righteous cavalry straight to the Shao thief's main formation may shake the morale of the enemy army.If Shao thief can be forced to escape alone, the battle will be more assured.

"Oh, what a pity." Fu looked at the post road winding into the distance again, Xia Jun's stockade was still standing.

It's been five days and the Walled City hasn't been taken down yet, what a shame.

In fact, when it is said to be "walled city", it is just a common name.In fact, "city" and "village" are not at the same level in terms of defense capabilities.Height, thickness, and firmness are not the same thing. The walls of the stronghold cannot hold too many troops, and it is very inconvenient to reinforce them. There are no defensive facilities such as urn walls, sheep and horse walls, and moats. The Japanese army’s combat effectiveness is so weak. , it stands to reason that it shouldn't be so hard to play.

But Xia Jun is stupid, the Japanese army has already retreated to the rear for containment and rectification, and the Tianxing Army has come in again, continuing to block their way.

There is no hope, the attack cannot go on, and the whole army is dragged here.

Li Siben suddenly felt discouraged.It's not that everyone doesn't work hard, in fact, everyone works hard.A few days ago, An Fuqian was attacked by the Flying Dragon Army during the night raid. When his son An Chonghui was captured, An Fuqian remained calm and ended the incident himself.

But that's about it.The road ahead has been cut off, the road back has been cut off, and we are trapped to death, with no reinforcements outside, what should we do?
"Kill! Kill! Kill!" Shocking shouts sounded from outside the camp.

Li Siben looked around and saw more than ten thousand soldiers from both sides fighting hard.

The bandit army should have tens of thousands of righteous soldiers on the left and right, and they formed the Yanyue formation, with two thousand on the left and two on each side, six thousand in the middle army, and a total of ten thousand infantry. They are well-equipped and have high morale.

The Jin army put out a geese-shaped formation, and dispatched a total of 2000 people.

The wild goose formation took the initiative to attack, and the [-] elite soldiers serving as arrows strangled the enemy together. No one retreated. It can be described as a desperate fight.

"Boom, boom, boom..." The drums rang for the second time.

The arrow rushed into the formation without impulsing the enemy, and retreated.

Li Siben subconsciously grasped the hilt of the knife with his left hand, and attacked the stronghold for several days in a row.It is not appropriate to fight at this time.

But the enemy army has set up a large formation to invite battle, what should you do?If he wins the field battle, he might be able to escape and go to Qingzhou.This is really their only chance.

Everyone understands this, everyone agrees to fight, and everyone expects a miracle—the enemy's rebel army came from afar. Although they rested for two full days, they should still be physically weak. In this regard Neither side took advantage, very fair.

The third drum beat.

The Jin army summoned Yu Yong and launched a third charge, pointing directly at the thick Chinese army in the Yanyue formation of the Xia army.At the same time, our left wing also joined the battle, and the rotating "right arm" of the Yanyue formation hit the middle of the wild goose formation, where the more than 3000 infantry of Jiankoudu were located.

Li Siben's eyes were still fixed on the decisive point in the middle.

The core of Yanyue Formation lies in the central army. The front right wing is based on the central army, and rotates to attack the enemy's flank. It combines offense with defense, and defense with offense. It is a very popular army formation.But his Achilles' heel is the Chinese army. As long as the Chinese army is defeated, the right wing will be half surrounded, and the defeat of the whole army is inevitable.

At the arrow point of the Jin army, An Fuqing came out with five hundred soldiers, roaring and rushing towards the Xia army.

There is a general flag flying over there, which cannot be seen clearly from a distance, only the big characters "Hengshandu" are more conspicuous.

The five hundred soldiers are all carefully selected warriors.This charge really saw the effect, and the sergeant who was tired from the long battle at the front of the enemy army was rushed to pieces.

"Kill them!" Li Siben slammed his fist on the wall of the stronghold, his expression excited.

The five hundred soldiers continued to charge forward, but as they continued to charge, their speed became slower and slower.In the end, just like the exhausted farm ox, he knelt on his front legs and fell to the ground whining.

The tried and tested desperate charge was stopped by the Xia people!

"Boom!" Li Siben punched again, this time with anger and regret.

"Kill! Kill! Kill!" Xia Ren picked up a head with a spear to boost morale.

"Hey!" The cavalry on the opposite side moved out.

Li Siben was startled.The Jin army failed to charge three times, but it was far from collapsed. The Xia thief cavalry army was dispatched at this time, looking for death?

But the noise from the left wing woke him up.

Li Siben turned his head to look, and saw that thousands of Jiankoudu had rolled up their battle flags and retreated hastily.

"Zhuzi!" Li Siben's eyes were about to burst.It was just a fight, and it collapsed right away?
The Yiwu Army didn't run away yet, so you ran away first?This will kill everyone, including yourselves.

These housekeeper dogs!
But there's no point in yelling loudly.Cheng Dewufu fled at an unusual speed and rushed back to the camp.

When Anfuqing was beheaded, the Chinese army tried to regroup and fight against the overwhelmed Xia soldiers under extremely unfavorable circumstances.

The [-] Yiwu Army on the right was still advancing, preparing to outflank the Xia Army's central army.

The battle situation was only slightly unfavorable, and the Jin soldiers and Ding soldiers had not completely lost their confidence in winning, but Zhao Bing's escape made everyone's efforts all in vain.

The more than [-] Bozhou Tutuan villagers in the rear also collapsed.They even rushed back to the camp before Zhao people, spreading uneasiness everywhere.

Xia Jun dispatched [-] cavalrymen, chasing after Jiankoudu's buttocks all the way, and completely dispersed them.

The two thousand infantry on the right wing of the Yanyue formation quickly turned and rushed towards the flank of the Jin army's center formation.

The Chinese army was affected, and there was a lot of noise, and the originally extremely tight formation was scattered.The sergeants were startled, and asked around to see what was happening ahead, and whether the battle had been defeated.

That's it for array battles.

The left doesn't hear the right, the right doesn't hear the left, the front line is broken, but the back line doesn't necessarily know it, the back line is outflanked, and the front army that hasn't received the news is still fighting hard.

Everyone on the battlefield was in fear, and rumors spread very quickly.Sometimes the flagpole is blown off, and the sergeants who don't know the truth think that the general will be cut off by the crowd, and there will be a big defeat directly.

Only a seasoned veteran of battle has the poise and composure on the battlefield.

They know that it is not good to scare themselves, and they can forcefully suppress the fear in their hearts.

They know that even if the battle is unfavorable for a while, they can't confuse their positions, and they will die faster that way.

They knew that the enemy army on the opposite side was also very scared, and whoever blinked first at a critical moment would die first.

Battle is a contest of courage and will. It is simply wishful thinking for recruits to defeat veterans in field battles, unless they encounter "God's help" such as dust and strong winds.

Of course, there is another situation that will cause veterans to collapse, that is, a large-scale rout of one's own side.

The escape of three thousand sergeants of Jian Kou had extremely bad effects.

After the Chinese soldiers who were more than [-] steps away from him saw it, the sound broke out all at once.

The officers were secretly startled. They beheaded the soldiers who shouted the loudest on the spot, scolded the others with angry faces, and tried to regroup.However, when the cavalry of the Xia army also appeared on the left flank of their own side, the noise became louder, and some people began to turn around and run away, which in turn attracted more people.The officers couldn't stop beating, cursing, slashing and killing, instead they were coerced and retreated together.

It's a fucking complete defeat!
Li Siben punched again, then disregarded his injuries, got down from the wall of the village, took his long spear, and prepared to take the thousands of soldiers who stayed in the camp to meet him.

But the rout soldiers swarming in directly dispersed his men.

Li Siben was pushed out and hit a wooden pillar, the wound cracked again, the pain made his eyes stare.

"Military envoy." The soldiers hurried over and helped him to the side, avoiding the panicked crowd.

"Hurry up, take people out to meet him immediately, maybe some more people will come back." Li Siben ordered, enduring the pain.

The soldier glanced at the tightly blocked camp gate in embarrassment, and shook his head.

Li Siben sighed, looking up at the sky with his eyes extremely depressed.

On the other side of the battlefield, under Shao Shude's order, the Yi Cong army pressed the second wave of five commanding ten thousand people, outflanking the enemy from both wings.

If 5 people fight more than [-] people, the force is surplus.He could even muster more troops if possible.However, he did not dare to use unreliable troops such as Huguo, Zhongwu, Pengri, and Tianxing. If he ran first after entering the battle, it would be a replica of the battle between Jin and Liangbaixiang——Wei Bojun ran away after resisting for a while The main force of the [-] Liang army was placed on the battlefield, all the flanks were exposed, and more than [-] people were eventually captured and beheaded by the Jin army.

The drums of war are rumbling, and flags and flags stand everywhere.

The thieves' formation loosened, their flanks fled, and their morale declined.The [-]-strong army of the Yi Congjun overwhelmed the past with an unstoppable force. After a fierce battle, they overwhelmed the last group of Jin soldiers who were trying to save the defeat, and began to chase death and chase north.

The six commanders of the cavalry in the right wing of the Yi Cong army were also dispatched, and the three thousand cavalry did a job that they couldn't be more familiar with. They ran head-on into the main force of the Rebel infantry that was squeezing over.

From this moment on, the real casualty gap on the cold weapon battlefield began to widen.

The Jin army was defeated, and everyone lost their minds and were in a mess.

The messengers went back and forth between the battlefield and the hillside, and reported the military situation back and forth.

"The sixth commander on the left side of the infantry, the captive general An Fuqian."

"An Fushun, the second commanding officer of the right wing of the infantry, will kill the thieves."

"Report, the captive general Mi Zhicheng is the first commanding officer in the left wing of the cavalry."

"Report, General He Huaibao, the thief beheading commander, the fourth commander of the left wing of the infantry army, and the fifth commander of the right wing of the cavalry army are in dispute. They all say that it is their own military exploits."

"Report, the first commander of the left wing of the infantry has broken into the enemy camp."

Shao Shude listened expressionlessly, occasionally nodded to show that he understood.

The Jin soldiers on the battlefield were scattered everywhere.Some people had already seized their horses and fled, and the cavalry of the Iron Forest Army sent out in pursuit.

It doesn't matter if you can catch up or not, Shao Shude doesn't care.

Most of the [-] enemy troops will be wiped out, so what if some escape?There is no longer any threat.

"Congratulations, Your Majesty." Chen Cheng walked over and said with a smile.

"The Jin army is actually not bad, quite capable of fighting." Shao Shude smiled self-confidently, and said, "It's just a small scene."

Isn't it?In the battle of Heqing, the big scene of 10,000+ people has been experienced, and the annihilation of [-] Jin, Zhao, and Ding coalition forces is just a drizzle.
