The Jagged Emperor of the Three Kingdoms

Chapter 836 The Great Showdown ([-])
For Liu Chan's central army, the first ones to send out were not elite troops, but the Shanyue troops assigned to his side.Since the number of Shanyue people's troops is indeed large enough, even if Liu Chan just wants to launch a tentative attack on the Jiangdong Army, he still invested a full 3000 troops at one time.

It should be said that among Liu Chan's left, middle and right armies, any one of them will outnumber the enemy he is facing.This can actually be regarded as the best situation the Shu Han army has faced since the war with the Cao Wei army in Nanyang County, and it is also the most abundant deployment of troops.This really made Liu Chan's commanders feel for the first time that their troops no longer had to be stretched.

However, Sun Quan will definitely not be relentless at this time.In addition, Sun Quan knew very well that he had a small number of troops on his side, and the opponent's troops came prepared and their morale was very high. He had to deal a head-on blow to the enemy's first attack, so that he could stabilize his army's morale and morale. morale.

As a result, the infantry battalion, one of the most elite troops in Sun Quan's hands, was immediately sent out to fight.Although this infantry battalion is a battalion of troops, usually no more than 2000 people, but it is quite different, with a total of 4000 people!That is to say, under normal circumstances, the strength of two full regular battalions has been formed.This is indeed an elite and numerous force.

In addition, this army is one of Sun Quan's "Imperial Forest Army", so the equipment is of course one of the best in the Jiangdong Army. Every soldier is the best choice in terms of body shape, armor, and weapons.

Therefore, as soon as such an elite force came out of the army formation, the undisguised aura was of course eye-catching.With a very neat posture, the army marched out towards Shanyue's troops. Everyone's weapons were all lit up, but they still looked chilly in the still bright light of the morning.

But looking back at the Shanyue people's army, it does appear to be a lot weaker in terms of momentum.These people did not have uniform clothing and weapons. Although there were military formations, they were definitely not as well-trained as infantry battalions. After all, they were not a completely regular military force, but were recruited by members of the tribe.

But the Shanyue people also have their own advantages. Even though their personnel composition is relatively messy, they are extremely well-equipped in terms of weapons. Everyone is equipped with a small shield in their hands.In this case, even if they are not equipped with armor, at least they can achieve better defense.

The military formations of both sides were approaching rapidly, and when the two sides gradually approached two hundred paces, the infantry battalion suddenly moved.

All I heard was the sound of a large number of bowstrings suddenly sounding from the two wings of the infantry battalion at the same time!
Suddenly, two black dots appeared in the sky above the left and right wings of the infantry battalion. They first rose obliquely for a short distance, then flew parallel for a certain distance, and then suddenly swooped down.

The sun has not yet risen, and the sky is still dark. Under such light, from a distance, even though the tail of the long arrow flying all over the sky is decorated with white feathers, it still looks black. Yes, like the light on the flickering scythe of death!
Although the distance is too far, and now that the armies of both sides are in action, the sound of war drums is still ringing. On such a noisy battlefield, it is impossible to hear the swishing sound of the flying long arrows on the opposite side.But watching such a spectacular scene, Liu Chan couldn't help tightening his right hand holding the saber.

In fact, Liu Chan was really surprised at this time. Sun Quan actually used his bow and arrow team in this way, ambushing them on the left and right wings of the infantry battalion, and when the two armies approached, they suddenly launched an attack.This is indeed a very shrewd way to use it, at least it is a situation that Liu Chan has never encountered before!

As a result, Liu Chan is actually a little worried about the attacking troops of the Shanyue people.

Therefore, Liu Chan immediately sent an order to let the regular Shu Han army's sword players, swords and shields check again immediately whether there is any problem, and then set out a distance of 3000 meters with 50 people, and set foot on the right wing of the entire army formation. Hold your ground.In this case, this part of the sword players left Liu Chan's headquarters and became a prominent part of the army behind.

Once the Shanyue people's troops retreat in the future, their left direction can become the channel for the Shanyue people to retreat, and they can immediately attack from the right wing direction, and go forward to suppress the chasing enemy troops.In this case, not only will the enemy not be able to attack Liu Chan's main formation, causing the situation to enter a state of melee, but it will also be able to provide timely support to the Yushanyue people, making their retreat more secure, and there will be no The situation of a full-scale retreat and impact on the formation.

It should be said that this step of Liu Chan was indeed very predictable. He didn't even get the advice of Shi Guangyuan around him.This decisive command style was indeed only cultivated and tested on the spot after many battles.

Shi Guangyuan sighed inwardly, maybe after Jiangdong was wiped out, Shi Guangyuan, a military man and teacher, seemed to have reached the time to retire.Liu Chan's growth is impressive. Although he is still too young, it is no longer a problem to shock the whole army.

And Deng Ai, Shi Guangyuan's other disciple, is ten years older than Liu Chan, so he is very mature in mind, and he has already honed his proficiency in marching and fighting. He may have grown into one of the top generals in the world today. , what awaits in the future is to shine.

Shi Guangyuan actually expressed these personal emotions at this tense moment, which shows that his mentality is different from Liu Chan's now, and he feels very relaxed.After all, the advice he can give Liu Chan on the battlefield seems to be getting less and less. He, the military strategist of the town army, seems to come more to watch other people fight.

Since the Jiangdong Army's long arrows were launched suddenly, the distance between the two sides is not very far now, and the long arrows flew extremely fast, so the Shanyue people's army formation had no time to react, and the long arrow formation followed suit. among them.

For a while, many Shanyue people were shot down, and the wounded immediately wailed.

But the Jiangdong Army will not be soft at all. After the first wave of arrows flew out, the second wave was wound up and fired at the fastest speed.
