Chapter 59 Gu Yong, the Prime Minister of Eastern Wu, defected
Sun Ce's big flag was erected on a dirt slope where the central army was located. There were central army formations with flags flying in front, back and left and right.
More than two hours have passed since the fierce battle, and the advantage of the battle situation has completely turned to Sun Ce's side.
Especially Sun Ce's command made the soldiers yell and fight with a strong spirit.
Just now, the soldiers who had been defending attracted a large number of main forces of the enemy to attack. The enemy gritted their teeth and attacked fiercely, just like a strong bow to the extreme.
As a result, under the command of Sun Ce, more than 20 Yuanyang formation teams were thrown into the battlefield. As a counterattack force, they suddenly launched a fierce counterattack on the nearly ten miles of front.
The enemy was at the end of his strength, but suddenly he was attacked so fiercely and was directly defeated. Thousands of defeated soldiers fled all over the mountains and fields.
There were still a large number of troops stationed behind Liu Yao's army. Although he could stabilize the situation, he became cautious when attacking again and did not dare to attack fiercely like before.
After witnessing this scene with his own eyes, countless people in Liu Yao took a deep breath and felt a chill all over his body.
Liu Yao gritted his teeth and said angrily: "Why is Sun Lang more at ease than the tens of thousands of troops under my command!"
Xu Shao only felt a cold back, and his tone was full of shock: "Sun Lang Xiaoxiong, he is using troops like a god, and he is invincible between the two formations. I am honest and I still recommend retreating as soon as possible."
Shi Yi shouted sternly: "General, Xu Zijiang is already scared! He can only disturb the morale of the army between the battle formations. Please kill him or chase him!"
With Yi Lingran's words, although Liu Yao respected Xu Shao's reputation, he still had to speak: "Xu Zijiang, you are not on the battlefield, so go to the city behind for a while to rest."
When Xu Zijiang heard this, his face turned red and he was very angry. Without saying a word, he left.
Shi Yi snorted heavily, and then said to Liu Yao: "The reason why the general feels that Sun Lang has no choice but to fight is that his elites are good at fighting. Sun Lang can only use a few thousand people to block our army's fierce attack. On the front, our army cannot defeat the enemy at all. If the 30,000 people are not spread, they can only be stalemate."
Liu Yao knew about the army. It was normal for him to fight tens of thousands of people with a dignified infantry formation.
But the problem he faced was that he could not be delayed at all. If he dragged on, Yangxian would kill more than 6,000 people from Zhou Yu's troops. Shentingling Ridge was the burial place for Qu A's tens of thousands of troops!
He looked solemn: "How is the crossbowman who reinforces the two wings?"
Shi Yi calculated the time: "Even if the crossbowman runs all the way, it will take nearly two quarters of an hour to reach the flank. He cannot adjust the formation in less than half an hour and launch an attack."
Half an hour!
Liu Yao glanced at the sun that was already setting west and said, "Wait for half an hour at most and then dispatch the surprise troops!"
He was determined and said, "General, if he intends to fight to the death, he should not let the crossbowman advance to the flanks. He should arrange elite soldiers to attack fiercely. The most important thing he should do now is to remove the crossbowman!"
"But..." Liu Yao hesitated a little: "How can a short soldier beside the formation of Yanxing not use a crossbowman to shoot? What Xu Zijiang said is quite consistent with the military strategy."
Liu Yao has carefully read the art of military affairs. The only regret is that Yue Wumu has not yet appeared in the era when he was born. Therefore, Liu Yao has not heard the famous saying of military affairs summed up by Yue Fei: "Fighting after formation, the common military strategy and the wonderful use of it lies in one's heart!"
While he was still struggling with how to deploy the Yanxing Formation in military tactics, Sun Ce had already discovered the chaos on the enemy's wings.
He immediately carried his spear and got on his horse, and personally led his cavalry to the front line. The flying vermilion flag was extremely eye-catching. The soldiers of both armies could see that Sun Lang's flag had already gone to the front line!
More than 700 cavalry drove straight to the city of Qu'a. This place was already the weakest part of the enemy's army that Sun Ce had explored.
When the cavalry rumbled to the front line, the enemy crossbowmen had just occupied the front line.
Sun Ce laughed excitedly: "The enemy is positioned with a crossbow, and the formation is not determined. This is a time of chaos. A God-given opportunity! All the soldiers, follow me to kill the enemy and wipe out the enemy in one battle!"
Hundreds of black-armored iron cavalry immediately roared and rode their horses to charge in the front. All the cavalry behind held up vermilion flags and followed closely behind.
This scene was like more than 700 iron cavalry unfolding, with iron cavalry leaping across the sky, armor lights shining on the sun, flags covering the sky, and the impact was like the sky collapsed and the earth cracked.
The eyes of the enemy generals who commanded the crossbowman were cracked! The fighter plane Sun Lang chose was so accurate!
The crossbowmen on his side had just arrived, but before the formation was set up, the iron cavalry came unstoppable.
He yelled wildly: "Stay! Stay! Don't shoot randomly. Obey my orders, and only by firing volleys can you stop the Iron Cavalry!"
But the terrified soldiers could not control themselves. Someone rushed to shoot through hundreds of steps, tremblingly constantly hitting arrows, intending to kill the iron cavalry who rode on the horse.
Some people were so frightened that they couldn't hold the bowstrings, and the arrows floated to where they were.
There were even a large number of soldiers who were frightened and turned around and fled.
There is no trenches in front of you and no heavy halberds behind you. How can you stop this overwhelming iron cavalry?
Especially the cavalry in front of the opponent was extremely burly and majestic, like an iron tower, and even the cavalry war horses were covered with exquisite iron armor. The soldiers even didn't believe that a few bows and arrows could block this huge iron cavalry.
"Shoot! Shoot! Shoot!" After the two armies were close to dozens of steps, the commanding general of this crossbowman could no longer withstand the pressure.
The already scattered arrow formation shot out more than a hundred arrows, which did not cause much trouble in the huge iron cavalry.
Seeing this scene, the crossbowmen were completely frightened, and hundreds of people fled to death without waiting for the order.
Sun Ce roared: "Breaking in and killing all the enemy!"
Nearly 700 cavalry fought fiercely, and rushed directly into the fleeing crowd of enemy soldiers. In an instant, the cavalry broke into the formation for hundreds of meters.
Hundreds of meters, this was about a distance of about one mile. From the battlefield, it was almost one-tenth of Liu Yao's army that was leveled by the iron cavalry.
Specifically for the enemy's left wing, half of the entire left wing was defeated, and the dense arrays and flags collapsed in an instant.
Sun Ce personally led the army and broke into the crowd, invincible. He rode his iron cavalry and entered, but the enemy could not stop it.
Especially this is a weak place for the enemy, and the soldiers are not elite. A large number of soldiers in the quaternary formations are rushing toward the iron cavalry and flee without waiting for the battle.
Sun Ce led 700 cavalry and fought hard, and drove straight in. Although tens of thousands of enemies were still collapsing and fleeing all over the mountains.
This time the violent attack of the Iron Cavalry, even if Liu Yao had more troops in his hands, he could not stop the defeated soldiers from escaping.
Sun Shao stood on the wall of Qua City with awesome eyes and said to Qua County Magistrate Gu Yong: "Yuan Tan, at this time, General Zhenwu was unable to save the defeat. The only ones who could save the situation were the two of us! We immediately sent troops to attack Sun Lang. The iron cavalry was trapped in the formation and could not move. Hundreds of people were killed or injured, and the enemy's spirit would be completely destroyed. The situation of the battle would turn defeat into victory!"
Gu Yong looked at the scene of Sun Lang's iron cavalry driving straight into the battlefield, and his eyes were shocked: "Changxu, do you think that with your talents, can you be Sun Lang's military attack? Besides, look at the time. When you block Sun Lang, it will be time to go down!"
By the end of the day, the battle had been nearly a day. Even if it was slow, Zhou Yu's army in the south of Qu'a County should be here.
The enemy army advances side by side, and must have already agreed to fight today and meet again.
Zhou Gongjin's genius in the world could not miss the opportunity to fight and let Sun Lang fight alone.
At this moment, fate can be said to be a mess of people.
The two most capable generals of the Eastern Wu fought on the battlefield, and the two former prime ministers of the Eastern Wu stood at the top of the city.
Sun Shao strode towards the sergeant and turned his head stiffly to look at Gu Yong: "Yuan Tan, you actually..."
Gu Yong looked directly at Sun Shao and said, "Changxu, Sun Lang is heroic and powerful, and has the most powerful world. He is kind to the people. He can see the strange and extraordinary things and strive for the people. He will not be able to occupy Jiangdong without storing the turbulent times. Only such a hero can end the troubled times and save the times. This is what people expect and the general trend will return. If you continue at this time, it is just a meaningless struggle before the general trend."
Sun Shao was silent for a moment, and finally slowly: "You are a prominent family in Wujun, hoping that Jiangdong will be peaceful and peaceful, and save the same people in times of difficulty. Sun Langzhiling Zhongxia may be as you wish. But I am a native of Beihai. I follow Liu Zhenwu from Beihai to Jiangdong. I have to repay the kindness and repay the righteousness."
After talking, Sun Shao turned around and walked down the city wall and entered the array of elite soldiers.
He was a Shandong man, eight feet tall, three inches taller than Chen Wu. He stood among the soldiers majestic and powerful, and shouted: "Solve danger and rescue the enemy, that is, at this time! Liu Zhenwu is generous to treat his soldiers, and his kindness is in the army. Now is the time for us to repay our kindness! All the soldiers, follow me to attack the enemy!"
The soldiers in the city were all elites under Liu Yao and were deeply favored by Liu Yao. Liu Yao raised his soldiers for many years, and these elite soldiers in the army were all vigorous and yelled to follow Sun Shao to the battlefield.
Beside Sun Ce, Jiang Qin soon found the enemy troops besieged behind him and shouted to Sun Ce: "General, Qu'a's enemy troops are coming from behind. I'll ask for division of troops to reject them!"
Sun Ce didn't look back and shouted: "The enemy's spear has stabbed my back. Let me tell me again! The whole army will continue to fight with me."
Sun Ce personally fought his spear and rushed in front of the three armies. He captured the enemy's left-wing generals and danced the bill himself. The soldiers were as motivated as the soldiers. The soldiers fought and fought to the death. Then they directly defeated the enemy's left wing.
But at this time, the elite troops commanded by Sun Shao had already been killed.
As the killer move in Liu Yao's hand, Qu Acheng was even more loyal and powerful under Liu Yao's command. His command of elite soldiers was unyielding and was about to surround Sun Ce's Iron Cavalry.
On the battlefield, once the cavalry loses the space for movement and is blocked, even the strongest people in the world cannot stop the siege of the infantry formation.
Jiang Qin once again made a suggestion: "General, the elite enemy forces have already reached the back of our iron cavalry. This iron cavalry is an elite formed by the general's efforts and must not be lost here. I ask dozens of dead soldiers to get off the horse and line them up to serve as the back of the entire army to block the enemy's offensive."
Sun Ce turned around and looked at the rear. The enemy's elite had indeed killed in front of his iron cavalry.
But he was determined to fight and said, "It was already a moment of life and death. Reversal will only eliminate the sharpness. Even if the iron cavalry is completely damaged, he must strive forward! All the brave generals and soldiers are trapped in battle with me!"
With Sun Ce's firm military order, all the Xuan Armored Knights ignored the shouts of killing behind them, and they were in a desperate manner and had to fight against the enemy's stalemate.
At this time, the passionate drums on the battlefield had already resounded throughout the sky. Cheng Pu discovered the dilemma of the Iron Cavalry, issued an order from the central army, and the entire army fought! The army under Sun Ce launched a fierce attack on Liu Yao's troops on all fronts.
The war may be decided before the sun is dusk!
During the fierce battle between the two sides, no one noticed that vermilion flags were floating on the Shenting Ridge.
Zhou Yu, who was so heroic and peerless, had stood calmly on the top of the mountain and looked at the magnificent battlefield at the foot of the mountain.
"Bo Fu is really arrogant and doesn't even want to wait for more than half an hour."
Xu Kun stood beside Zhou Yu, smiled at Zhou Yu with a faint tone and said, "Gongjin is also a genius in the world. He untied his armor and advanced along the way. He only took half of the time to arrive at the battlefield."
Zhou Tai carried the battle axe on his shoulder, took a step forward, and laughed loudly: "So many geniuses of his lifetime are all helping the general, how could Liu Yao be defeated?"
Zhou Yu pulled out the sharp sword from his waist and pointed forward. Heroic Jieji: "Beat the drum and march!"
The majestic drum sounded instantly, and countless soldiers shouted and fought, shaking the mountains and rivers.
"kill!"
"kill!"
"kill!"
The sudden shocking sound shocked the noise on the battlefield. When everyone looked in the sound, they saw a large army rushing down from Shenting Ridge with flags waving.
