Chapter 1782 Bloody Battle of Ming and Wei Dynasties Ten

Sometimes strategic intentions that cannot be seen through are the most dangerous. A veteran in the battlefield like Xia Houyuan naturally understands this best, so he dare not relax for a moment.

"Mate, Xia Houshang, Fang Ming, Zhao Nan, the main force of the third battalion will press forward, keep a certain attack range, and don't let the cavalry fight at close quarters!"

Xia Houyuan narrowed his eyes and stared ahead.

He doesn't want to press too hard.

Finally, retreat fifty steps, turn the main attacker into an auxiliary hand, press up at this time, maybe Gongsundu will also choose some space on the back side.

But he has to suppress the Ming army.

If you don't force the Ming army cavalry, there will be no change. He always believes that the Ming army cavalry must have their own purpose for attacking rashly.

Only when the purpose of the Ming army cavalry was revealed, he dared to face the attack head-on.

"Yes!"

The main force of the third battalion suppressed the main force of the cavalry of the Ming army from three directions. They maintained a certain combat range, suppressed the enemy's combat distance, and suppressed the combat effectiveness of the cavalry.

The situation on the battlefield began to reverse.

Although the cavalry of the Ming army was very powerful, they seemed to be stuck, so they lost the mobility of the cavalry, and their combat effectiveness was greatly reduced.

Pang Xi looked around.

He felt a little bit cold. Could it be that the news is true or false? It shouldn't be.

But he still has to persevere.

"Boys, attack!"

Pang Xi knew that the only way to keep his morale from any other problems due to changes in the battle situation was to suppress it forcefully. At this time, any slightest problem would lead to the collapse of the occupation.

"attack!"

"attack!"

The morale of the cavalry was maintained by maintaining the offensive, and they attacked the Wei Army camp and the Liaodong Army camp even more fiercely.

"I don't believe how long they can last!"

Xia Houyuan's eyes became more and more indifferent.

The more reckless the cavalry of the Ming army attacked, the more he thought there was a problem, so he was patient and did not put all the main force into the attack.

Waiting is his only option.

Moreover, as far as the current battle situation is concerned, the Ming army is a predator, and the Liaodong army is the main attacker. Even if they are injured or killed, it is not their Wei army that has the most casualties.

So he has enough patience to wait for the Ming army to show its fox tail.

........................

on the city head.

Xu Shu wore his battle armor, held the hilt of his sword in his hand, and watched the changes in the battle situation outside the city intently. The binoculars in his hand allowed him to clearly see every change in the battle situation.

"Xia Houyuan is indeed a formidable opponent!"

Xu Shu asked himself that he hadn't underestimated Xia Houyuan, but he had to admit that Xia Houyuan's battlefield instincts were terrifying.

At this time, Xia Houyuan could still bear his thoughts and did not attack in an all-round way, which showed that Xia Houyuan had doubts in his heart, so he would not attack.

In this way, even if the reinforcements of the Ming army wanted to sneak attack the Wei army, the harm would not be too great.

He gritted his teeth, gave a low drink, and said, "Send the signal, the target, the Liaodong military camp!"

Instead of choosing to attack Wei Jun's camp head-on.

It is better to choose to kill the Liaodong Army.

It is better to shorten one finger than to hurt ten fingers. If you want to break the siege of Hangu Pass, you must defeat one of them, and then the siege is most likely to be broken.

So he chose the Liaodong Army.

....................................

It was less than three miles away from the battlefield, but Zhang Ren could bear the loneliness.

They ran for hundreds of miles, and their physical strength was exhausted very quickly, but it was undeniable that they still retained the strength of the first battle.

The Ming army is not those part-time soldiers who practice once a month, or every ten days, but occupational diseases. After enlisting, the soldiers of the Ming army must go out for training every day. The first is physical training. Cross-country training is the most common. This is the training of teamwork.

Therefore, even after a long-distance attack, the Ming army can retain a certain amount of combat effectiveness.

"How's it going?"

Zhang Ren stared forward, his gloomy eyes exuded a fighting spirit.

"It's starting to fight, and our cavalry is currently suppressed!"

The scout captain cupped his hands and reported.

"Continue to explore!"

"Yes!"

"Remember, first pay attention to the signals sent by our army, and they are the ones who understand the battlefield. They think that whichever side is best to fight, we will fight there!"

Zhang Ren has already got in touch with Hangu Pass City through Jingwu Division. Although this kind of connection is not tacit, it is enough to cooperate.

Today's battlefield, they came here from a long distance, so it is certain that they don't know enough, but the generals of the Ming army in the city know best, which is the weakest and where is the strongest, they are very clear.

So it is enough for him to pay attention to the signals sent by the generals of his army.

"Yes!"

The scout captain quickly went to inquire about the news.

Soon it was reported that the scout captain had turned back, and he cupped his hands and said, "A torch flag is issued from the city, attacking the barracks on the left!"

"Left side?"

Zhang Ren narrowed his eyes.

"Well!" said the scout captain, "The barracks on the left should be the Liaodong Army of the Yan Army, and the banner designation is Gongsun. I think it is the designation of the Liaodong Army's general Gongsun Du!"

"Is it Gongsundu?"

Zhang Ren sneered: "I've heard of him. When he was in Liaodong, he met once. He is a character!"

Zhang Ren learned from Tong Yuan, studied art in Hebei, and after being successful in marksmanship, he also worked as a ranger for a while, and he got acquainted with some missions in the northern border.

He is not very familiar with Gongsun Du, but he is not very unfamiliar either.

"Ministries, prepare!"

Zhang Ren ordered: "I will personally lead the first battalion to attack, and the rest of your battalions must link up and attack the situation. You must cooperate front and back, and break the formation in one battle!"

He believes that even if the Liaodong Army maintains its offensive, the battle formation is very strong. If it cannot be broken in a short while, then the Liaodong Army will react. At that time, he will have to pay more casualties to break the Liaodong Army's formation.

"It's almost dawn!"

Zhang Ren got on his horse and let out a long roar: "We will deal with the Liaodong Army before the sun comes out, and then we will fight against the Wei Army!"

He didn't know why the city chose to let him attack the Liaodong Army first, but he believed that the generals in the city had made the right choice, so he would not hesitate.

No matter which aspect of the attack, it is a sneak attack battle, and the most important thing is to maximize the results.

"Yes!"

The formation was quickly formed in the middle, and the main general mounted his horse and aimed at the battlefield several miles away, and his fighting spirit broke out.

"kill!"

Zhang Ren took the lead, and the generals under his command moved quickly.

"kill!"

"kill!"

The attack of [-] main forces carried a rush, like a torrent sweeping past, directly covering the battlefield.

"Tap Tat Tat!!!!!!"

The sound of such neat footsteps quickly alarmed the people on the battlefield, and Xia Houyuan was the first to react: "It's not the footsteps of the battlefield, it comes from outside the battlefield."

When he took the lead, he saw the direction of the southeast corner, and a force appeared under his eyes like a torrent.

He was suddenly cold.

At that moment, he finally understood why the Ming army cavalry took the initiative to attack. It turned out that the Ming army reinforcements came, and this was to lure the enemy and hold them back.

The reinforcements from the Ming army were not aimed at the Wei army's camp, but the Liaodong army's camp.

Wei Jun was on guard.

But the Liaodong Army...

Xia Houyuan knew that the Liaodong Army had been tricked by him, so he had to put all the main force into the attack, and the defense had weakened to the weakest point.

At this time, it is basically impossible to adjust the defense.

Boom boom boom! ! ! ! ! !

As the torrent rushed past, the rear camp of the Liaodong Army collapsed first, and wave after wave of generals fell under the impact of the Ming army. Immediately, blood flowed all over the ground and corpses littered the field.

At this moment, Gongsun Du's blood was cold.

"How could this be?"

He looked at this scene in disbelief. How could the Ming army appear behind him? He couldn't think of it, and he couldn't figure it out.

But it won't be because he can't figure it out that the war will come to a standstill.

The Ming army was in full swing, constantly attacking the camps of the Liaodong Army, and the offensive maintained by the Liaodong Army quickly collapsed, and the battalions began to automatically defend even without military orders.

However, this kind of defense lacks an army formation, facing the attack power of the Ming army, it collapses at a touch.

"defense!"

"The front battalion and the rear battalion are switched!"

"Immediately let Liu Yi lead the army to block from the flanks, we must block them!"

In any case, Gongsun Du can be regarded as one of the princes. When he first dominated Liaodong, he also fought countless fierce battles. Although his reaction was a bit slow, he still reacted.

He quickly ordered and adjusted his strategy.

In addition, he deployed [-] troops on his flank, which is the left hand direction of the Ming army's attack, facing the direction of Hangu Pass.

This is also his only hope.

If Liu Yi's troops blocked it, he could block the attack of the Ming army and buy him time to adjust his formation, and he still hoped to be able to withdraw from this pincer attack atmosphere.

Liu Yi also reacted quickly. He quickly led his troops to rush up from the flanks, and lined up in front of the Ming army.

But they all underestimated the Ming army's attack.

Zhang Ren took the lead and personally led the Jingping elite, which is definitely the elite of the direct line, and the combat effectiveness itself is stronger than the general Ming army.

Facing the Liaodong Army, it is simply bullying the small with the big.

"kill!"

No one can match Zhang Ren's spear.

Although he is not the most powerful military general in the world, he is also a military general of any level at the top of the pyramid. His attack directly tore through the defense of the Liaodong Army, like a sharp knife piercing through.

"Array, kill!"

"Attack formation, take over from front to back, and hit the past!"

The strongest of the Ming army is not the soldiers, but the commanding generals, especially the grassroots commanding generals. In the current era, their level is the highest.

Because most of the generals at the grassroots level have entered the military training system to study, even some veterans will go to study for a few months before returning to the army.

Moreover, the generals at the grassroots level of the Ming army were more or less familiar with the art of war, and they also had a systematic understanding of command.

One can't show his level, but in the battle, he can show his level to the fullest. As long as the Liaodong Army's formation is torn apart, the Liaodong Army will collapse directly.

………………

The war changed quickly, and the sky gradually changed from darkness to light.

The battle situation also became clear.

The cavalry of the Ming army was suppressing the Wei army, while the reinforcements of the Ming army were attacking the Liaodong army, trying to solve the Liaodong army in the shortest time, and then gather the main force to attack the Wei army.

This is Ming army tactics.

But Xia Houyuan's reaction was faster.

Xia Houyuan first saw the reinforcements of the Ming army suddenly appearing to attack the camp of the Liaodong army. His first reaction was to storm the Ming army camp and meet the Liaodong army. of.

But the Liaodong Army was defeated too quickly.

It was almost time for him, a seasoned veteran, to be unable to react.

By the time they were ready to mobilize all the main forces to attack the Liaodong Army, he had already seen that the main camp of the Liaodong Army had been defeated.

At this moment, he did not have any hope for the Liaodong Army.

And standing in front of him were thousands of liberated elite cavalry, and all of the pressure was on him now.

And he knew that soon after the Ming army solved the Liaodong army, they would quickly put the two forces on top of his Wei army, and he would not have any luck by then.

So at this time, he wanted to be ruthless and cut off his arms to survive.

"Order, all ministries retreat!"

Xia Houyuan immediately sent a military order: "Xiahou Shang's battalion will follow me, and the rest of the battalions will immediately retreat to the rear and leave the battlefield in the direction of Luoyang. There must be no mistakes!"

Xia Houyuan's reaction was not unpleasant.

However, Wei Jun's actions were tantamount to cutting off the last hope of the Liaodong Army.

Gongsun Du was already impatient. He didn't expect that Liu Yi's main force, which was tens of thousands of people waiting for work, could not stop the attack of the Ming army for half an hour.

He simply didn't have enough time to adjust the formation.

He had already faced the direct attack of the Ming army, directly tearing up his camps one by one, breaking up the army formations one by one, and then tidying up one by one.

This is a conventional tactic of the Ming army. It breaks up the enemy's camp, defeats the enemy's formation, and then cooperates with the army to clean up the stragglers. Enemy tactics.

The Ming army used it with ease.

Gongsundu looked at the collapsed battlefield, his only hope was the rescue of the Wei army, as long as the main force of the Wei army pressed up to support him, he could gather most of the remnants and withdraw.

But when he looked up, through a ray of sunlight, he saw Wei Jun retreating like a tide and leaving the battlefield, he suddenly felt cold all over.

As soon as the Wei army ran away, the main force of the Ming army's cavalry also relaxed. What hope did he have for leaving the battlefield?

"It's over!"

"My Liaodong Army is finished!"

At this moment, Gongsun Du didn't have any hope, his whole expression was icy cold.

………………

"General, do you want to continue chasing them?" The cavalry captain looked at Pang Xi, pointed to the direction where the Wei army withdrew from the battlefield, and asked in a low voice.

"No!"

Pang Xi shook his head: "If I let go of the interception at this time, then the Liaodong Army will be able to escape from our army's attack. It is a good thing for them to withdraw at this time. Immediately adjust their formation and wipe out the Liaodong Army. Tell the sons and daughters that it is time to let out a sigh of relief." Now, I can vent all the aggrievedness during this period of time!"

"Yes!"

The Ming cavalry immediately changed their formation.

The battlefield began to be surrounded, and the tens of thousands of Liaodong troops quickly became the objects of the Ming army to make dumplings. They gave up resistance directly under the attack of the Ming army.
