Johime Three Kingdoms

Chapter 99 Ambush
Whether it is appropriate to lead an army directly down from a high place depends on the specific situation at the time.

If the army below has been well prepared, surrounded on all sides and with many defenses, then the army above is the fat on the chopping block.

But at this time, Ji Ling and others were exhausted, their morale was low, and their engines could hardly fire.

However, Zhang Liao and Gao Shun had already arrived here to make repairs, waiting for Ji Ling to throw himself into the trap. It was expected that the place where he would escape must be the north side where the terrain is higher and the water cannot be washed away. And try to avoid Pengcheng...

Although it is surrounded by the Copper Mountain Mountains, there are not many places that meet this condition!
Zhang Liao just chose the most likely place and gambled to win a big victory...

Ji Ling saw that Zhang Liao and Gao Shun were here, and his officers and men were not in such bad shape that they had lost the city... He was completely convinced that this was the enemy's conspiracy!

He directly threw Wei Xu in his hand to the ground and died. Hou Cheng on the side wanted to escape, but was directly killed by the soldiers beside Ji Ling.

Seeing Zhang Liao's unmoved look, Ji Ling also knew that these two idiots really didn't know anything about it. They just pulled out such a big trick, so it wouldn't be unfair to kill them!
"Don't panic, form a formation to defend against the enemy! There are far fewer thieves than our army!" Ji Ling shouted.

This is true. Zhang Liao only has [-] people here, and Ji Ling has nearly [-] drowned rats...

However, when Gao Shun, who was dressed in gray armor, led the trapped camp in silence without shouting or drums, and rushed down the gentle slope, Ji Ling was still shocked - the weirdness of the trapped camp, Ji Ling had long ago Been taught.

When he was afraid, he was afraid. Ji Ling commanded the army to change formations to form an array to meet the enemy, and at the same time retreated to the main position in the army.

Ji Ling was confident that he could defeat Gao Shun when it came to personal force, but if he were to fall into those eight hundred ghostly soldiers, not even Ji Ling, Lu Bu would not be able to come out alive!

If it were replaced by [-] ordinary soldiers, with Lu Bu's bravery, when he was in good condition, even if the armor suppressed the effect, but he rushed into them and slashed left and right, it would be easy to kill the opponent until the formation collapsed, and then the remaining soldiers would be defeated. What comes down is the lamb for the slaughter.

But Gao Shun's Eight Hundred Traps camp is different. There is no such thing as a collapse. He will always make the best choice for the collective and will not be affected by individual emotions - unless it affects Gao Shun himself.

Even when individual soldiers are injured, they will choose to retreat in time for treatment based on the degree of injury and the situation of the battle, or simply rush forward to assist friendly forces and die together with the enemy...

At this time, Zhang Liao and Gao Shun led [-] Bingzhou wolf cavalry, [-] Xiliang iron cavalry, and [-] trapped troops. The other infantry had been sent out to search and rescue the people.

When attacking Ji Ling's military formation, the two of them chose to take the trap camp as the vanguard without hesitation. Even the wolf cavalry and the iron cavalry charged behind the trap camp...

"The ambition to be trapped in the battle will lead to death but not life." Gao Shun muttered in a low voice.

Hao Meng was not around during the charge, so probably no one else knew that Gao Shun had actually "shouted" the slogan.

I saw soldiers in black helmets and black armor rushing into the military formation where Ji Ling had not yet set up their formation. They immediately formed a group of three and charged into the enemy formation one by one!
This is the "trap situation" that only applies to the trapped camp. Gao Shun will judge based on the situation whether to go into a group of three, a group of nine, or a group of 18. The essence of this is to break into the enemy's formation and make the opponent The phalanx does not form a formation.

Especially effective against non-dense arrays.

Essentially, it is a method of fighting in which one does not follow the rules, but only studies small formations to jointly fight against the enemy, and then "drills" into the enemy's formation, forcing the opponent to become disorganized as well.

In a battle that is also unstructured and only based on small team fighting, no army can beat the trapped camp. Therefore, in a battle formation with less than a thousand people, Gao Shun is invincible!

Only Gao Shun's trapped camp can use this method of warfare. Ordinary troops are scattered in groups among the enemy. Shi Chang and Dub are unable to accept orders from each other, fearing that their own morale will collapse first.

Only Gao Shun's trapped camp did not have a single low-level general. They were all Ji Zao soldiers. They were controlled by him in real time and could not be disrupted at all when they dispersed the enemy's formation.

Moreover, the trapped camp saves time in training this series of changes, and fully trains the special fighting method of the team's attack and killing. Everyone sacrifices needlessly and only seeks the results. Only in this way can the effect of the "trapped force" be maximized.

Ji Ling's army didn't have time to line up at this time, and was directly surrounded by groups of black armor, which infiltrated like sand...

"Array, stay calm and form an array! Don't fight with those monsters!" Ji Ling's roar did not receive much response.

If you can overlook it, you will find that within the scope of the eight hundred formations infiltrating, the Huainan Army's formation changes are completely blocked!
However, neither the Huainan Army nor the old Nanyang Army could ignore casualties like the trapped camp, so naturally they could not take up formation under the trapped camp's attack.

From a bird's eye view, it seems that Ji Ling's army was invaded by the "virus", became sluggish, and was quickly killed...

It was just when the opponent's formation failed that the cavalry led by Zhang Liao rushed straight in!

The Xiliang cavalry was guarding the two wings, and the Bingzhou cavalry broke into the enemy's formation directly. In the past six months in Xuzhou, the Xiliang cavalry had been very "fat" and had restored its true character as a heavy cavalry. Not only did it wear thick armor, but its "war horse" also looked stronger. , just slower.

However, the Bingzhou Wolf Cavalry were still strong attackers. The infantry who were "trapped" in the trapped camp and unable to form a formation were vulnerable to the cavalry.

Zhang Liao didn't even need to consider accidentally injuring friendly troops trapped in the formation, because avoiding cavalry was part of their training, and... if they were really accidentally injured, "they" wouldn't care. Even if their companions fell under the iron hooves of friendly forces, they would kill the enemy alone. The movements will not be messy!

Even some wounded soldiers in the battle will throw the enemy down and get involved under the iron hoof together, forcing them to make a profit.

Like a hot knife cutting oil, the cavalry led by Zhang Liao was directly embedded in it. The Huainan Army relied entirely on their lives to weaken the cavalry's charge.

Ji Ling's handsome flag gradually moved backwards, obviously not wanting to collide with Zhang Liao!
Commander's flag - a device that assists the leading generals in commanding and can function as a "signal tower".

When Zhang Xun was fighting outside Qu'a City before, he chose to build a high platform and command with flags from behind. Not only because of fear of fighting Lu Bu head-on, but also because it was difficult to cover the signal with his subordinates simply by relying on his armor. An army of tens of thousands.

At this time, if you still need to lead the army to command, you need the commander-in-chief flag. Around the commander-in-chief flag, the contact range of the commander's armor will become larger.

But in this way, Shuaiqi will also expose the position of the coach!
Ji Ling wanted to retreat. As long as he could regroup, he might not be able to fight with this mere four or five thousand cavalry. However, Zhang Liao came all the way to the commander's flag.

Even Zhang Liao, who usually looks gentle and elegant, is like a wild horse when he enters the battlefield. His command relies entirely on the stream of consciousness and completely ignores the disengagement of the army. , in order to quickly approach the commander's flag, Zhang Liao's cavalry was stretched out one by one.

In the end, with only a few dozen cavalry around him, Zhang Liao fought his way to Ji Ling, and his bodyguards fought hand-to-hand. Instead, the two armies faced each other head-on. It was a typical lone army going deep...

However, at this time, Ji Ling's men were exhausted and their horses were exhausted. They were rushed by the cavalry and were thrown into chaos. They were all killed by Zhang Liao!
"Ji Ling! How dare you fight!"
