Chapter 48: Two Heroes (2)
Ding Miao did not show any performance in the war just now. Of course, this was not because of insufficient bravery, but because he was sad about Ding Jin's death in battle. The four brothers of Ding Miao were the relatives who followed him when he joined the army, and they were all loyal, brave and reliable soldiers. After many years of wars, almost all the young men of Qiao who had been in the army had withered, leaving only Ding Yu and Ding Jin... But Ding Jin died in battle a moment ago. This made Ding Miao feel a little depressed for a moment.
But after all, he was a general who was used to life and death. He had a strong will and extremely strong fighting spirit. Once he recovered, he immediately proposed an extremely fierce combat plan.
At this moment, Shi Le's main force wandered around Yecheng and searched for the Jianchun Gate. Only three or five hundred people stayed in place to confront him. In the eyes of the brave Ding Miao, this little force was simply a defeat in one blow. If the remaining troops could be quickly defeated and then surrounded Shi Le's retreat, the Shi Le's army was still smoked and fired in many li fangs in Yecheng. In the search for the road, they were attacked by the enemy, but instead fell into the two sides of the Jin army. Perhaps, it is unknown that this bandit army can be destroyed!
"How is it? Let's do the big ones if we want to do it!" Ding Miao said with great pleasure. Judging from his expression, it can almost be described as fanaticism.
"Uh..." Lu Yao didn't know how to answer for a moment.
Relying on his understanding of history, Lu Yao attached great importance to Shi Le a hundred times that of others. Ding Miao's bold plan also made him very moved. But after being excited for a moment, he quickly calmed down.
"Wu Zi" says in the enemy's chapter: "In a single army, there must be a tiger-bearer. With a weak force, a low foot, a low foot, a powerful horse, and a powerful general. In the Jinyang army, when talking about the brave generals who are good at charging and striking the generals, they will definitely mention Ding Miao and Lu Yao first. Lu Yao and Ding Miao are both the first-class brave generals under the command of the Duke of Yue Shi. In terms of reputation, the two of them are similar; the fighting style seems to be somewhat similar. Both of them have excellent martial arts and dare to lead the army, and often lead the army to charge as an important means to turn the situation around. In the Jinyang War, Lu Yao led a partial army to defeat the Hun army and kill the Hun generals in the formation. Ding Miao also defended the lonely city Jiexiu, and used hundreds of Hun warriors. He even fought with the elite cavalry of the Xiongnu in the commanding army, killing Hu Er to death.
But Lu Yao knew that the tactics he and Ding Miao were used to were actually very different. Ding Miao loved to take risks and aimed at killing the enemy to the greatest extent, and he was willing to do anything for it. And what about Lu Yao?
In the eyes of outsiders, Lu Yao's two victories in the Jinyang War were one with a surprise attack and the other with fire. He was undoubtedly interested in military operations, but this statement made Lu Yao feel a little funny.
Lu Yao was just an ordinary person in his previous life, and his channels for understanding military strategy were probably limited to novels and computer games. Although after coming to this era, many of the original military books and strategies that Lu Yao was familiar with, what he was particularly familiar with was still the ones that modern small staff were exposed to. He vaguely remembered that the protagonist of a novel once said something like this: combating with a few and a majority belongs to the category of magic; forming more military forces than the enemy, training well, and preparing sufficient supplies and equipment is the right way to military strategy.
This is Lu Yao’s true thought. Compared to Ding Miao, who was praised by Yue Shigong as “frivolous and impatient in using troops”, Lu Yao cherishes the lives of the soldiers more. Those unexpected results of winning are really forced to do so.
Judging from the current situation, the Qihuo Army is tenacious and brave, but after all, it is not Lu Yao's old subordinates who are pointed by the arm. These soldiers can be determined by the principle of using them. It is impossible to use them to launch a surprise attack. If there is a slight mistake, it will be the end of annihilation of the entire army. Perhaps brave generals like Ding Miao are confident enough to protect themselves, but Lu Yao must be responsible to the soldiers. Lu Yao once told the Qihuo Army that he would not lead everyone to die. He hopes to make achievements on the battlefield, but that should not be exchanged for the lives of the soldiers.
But how to reject Ding Miao's suggestion? Although he is nominally Lu Yao's deputy, Lu Yao will not really regard him as a subordinate. This lord is the confidant general of Duke Yue Shi, the general of Wuwei with a rank of 2,000 stones! Considering his brave and aggressive personality and a little out of line, considering that his clan leader who was leaning on his left and right hands had just been killed by the spear thrower of Shi Le's subordinate... It is not so easy to convince Ding Miao, who is currently murderous.
After thinking about it, Lu Yao felt a headache for a moment.
At this time, a strong wind blew, rolling thick smoke across the board. Lu Yao was choked and coughed suddenly.
After a while, he recovered. He did not rush to respond to Ding Miao's suggestion, but tried his best to look at the situation under the city.
Lu Yao and others fled from the prison city at about the hour of Xu. After that, they fought fiercely at Jianchun Gate and fought with Shi Le's troops at Chengtai for less than two or three hours. It was roughly estimated that this was the second day's ugly time. This was the darkest moment of the day. Although the raging fire was still raging, emitting a leaping red light, it was not as clear as Bai Yu.
The bandits under Shi Le's army marched extremely quickly. They were like a fire snake flying in the night, and soon disappeared behind the stacked lifangs of Yecheng and could not be seen. This made Lu Yao even more suspicious.
What the bandits want is Yecheng. In any case, they must first protect Yecheng! Lu Yao thought about it for a while and finally made up his mind.
"How can we put the generals of the court in danger for a bandit?" He smiled and said, "Wenhao, don't be anxious, we have ways to deal with these bandits!"
As he said that, Lu Yao looked at the movements in the city again. With the interweaving of night and fire, everything was so blurry. He did not have the ability to see through the night, and could only choose the safest way. Perhaps, if Ding Miao's plan was implemented, it would be really successful? Or perhaps, he would miss the best opportunity to change history without realizing it?
Lu Yao shook his head and stopped thinking about it.
He didn't know that Shi Le's thief army had indeed fallen into a deadlock at this moment.
When Lu Yao was unsure of his doubts, Shi Le was simply anxious and crazy.
According to previous estimates, the Jin army could only mobilize 300 troops to block the self-army army on the city and raise the Army flag to try to anger themselves... This obviously proves that the Jin people's military strength in Jianchun Gate was very weak, so they tried their best to attract their own attention.
Shi Le's character was decisive, and once he made a judgment, he would never hesitate. He immediately led the main force to penetrate the Lifang in Yecheng and walked around to Jianchun Gate. The problem was that after passing the two Lifangs, their pace of advance had to stop. Because another Jin army was blocking the only way to Jianchun Gate, and their troops were nearly a thousand!
If Lu Yao could see the scene at this time, he would be shocked. Jianchun Gate only had three gates, and his traffic capacity was very limited, and a large number of people were stranded in the city. How could he mobilize so many soldiers into the city in such a short time?
What Shi Le couldn't accept was that this Jin army was actually a rare strong soldier. They brought bricks, stones and wood to make simple fortifications, defended them at the critical point, and no matter how they attacked, they remained unmoved. Shi Le sent more troops several times, but they were all repelled!
Did he make a mistake in his judgment? Could it be that the Qihuo Army's actions were faster than he thought, and they had already entered the city in large numbers? Shi Le shook his head suddenly and waved his hand and shouted angrily: "Guo Heiluo, you bring two hundred people to continue attacking! You must attack!"
So more soldiers rushed forward from behind him and rushed forward to fight.
The fire spread everywhere in Yecheng, and countless fired debris were blown into the air by the night wind. When it fell, a new fire was lit. Near the direction of Jianchun Gate, the fire became even more violent; Shi Le even suspected that the Jin people were deliberately setting fire to block the enemy.
There is only one passage that can cross the fire to block Jianchun Gate. This is the road between two large yards in the south of the city, with a width of about three meters.
The Jin army in front of him was guarding the end of the road, relying on the walls on both sides as a cover to hold their offensives tightly. Along the contact line between the two armies, a large amount of blood was sprayed at every moment. The dead soldiers fell to the ground, and the soldiers in the back row continued to force themselves. Soon the soldiers in the back row would lose their lives again. The soldiers in the third row trampled on his body and rushed forward.
The sound of weapons colliding violently, the sound of sharp weapons piercing into the body, the muffled groans or wails of the injured sounded at the same time, mixed into a fearful and frenzied sound. With the accompaniment of this sound, the contact line is like a thin string that constantly twists and changes, sometimes drooping downwards, sometimes bending upwards, as if it will break at any time, but it will always be constantly.
The spear thrower who once played a huge role was killed and injured by Lu Yao's troops, and he was unable to bear the battle again. At this moment, the ones ordered to rush forward were Hu Yanmo's subordinates and Guo Hei's new forces led by him.
Guo Heiluo was one of the "Eighteen Cavalry" of Shi Le's subordinates, especially known for his bravery. He wore two layers of iron armor and poked 16 feet of iron slugs. With his extraordinary strength, all the people of Jin were intestines and turned into the Jin people, and instantly opened a gap in the Jin people's array. He took off his hand and let go of the iron slug, rushed into the gap, and pulled out two long swords to slash left and right. His subordinates then broke through the gap, fighting fiercely with swords, short spears and maces.
If it were an ordinary Jin army, it would have been in chaos at this time. However, the one who faced Shi Le was the Qihuo Army! The Qihuo Army was composed of refugees in Bingzhou. They left their hometowns and left their homes and had no one. What they fought for was a place to settle down, and what they wanted was a way of life. Whoever did not give them a way of life would fight to the end!
The person who led this army was Tian Zhen, one of the five lieutenants of the Qihuo Army, who was determined and fierce. As Tian Zhen shouted loudly, the Jin army immediately strengthened its troops in this direction. A group of elite soldiers attacked Guo Heiluo from the left and right front three sides. Dozens of long and short weapons fell like raindrops, and some even threw them at him with torches. Although Guo Heiluo was brave, he could not withstand such a dense attack by the Jin army, and immediately put him in danger.
Guo Heiliu himself had two layers of armor, and although he was repeatedly chopped by swords and axes, he was not seriously injured. Several of his subordinates were on the spot in a blink of an eye. The Jin people then surrounded Guo Heiliu from both wings to surround Guo Heiliu. Seeing that the situation was not good, Guo Heiliu had to roar and rushed back. A Jin soldier pushed the spear and stabbed the spear. Guo Heiliu grabbed the stabbed gun rod, pulled the soldier over and blocked it, and continued to rush. The swords, spears, swords and halberds of the Jin people arrived at the same time, and cut the soldier to death. Guo Heiliu retreated in a little embarrassed manner, waved his arms and threw the soldier's body back into the Jin army formation, smashing several people.
