Chapter 2038 Fighting to the death to control the crane soldiers
"kill!"
Zhao Sheng shouted angrily and asked the crane controller to drive other troops forward.
Although Xuzhou's soldiers and horses were in a panic and had no intention of fighting, they were still forced to move forward under the control of the crane soldiers.
However, when they were far away from the crane control soldiers arrayed behind them, a rocket was shot out, and raging fire rose from between the two sides.
In the middle, Zhao Sheng had already laid out a fire belt.
With no troops available, and only these soldiers and horses, if the Jin army breaks out, it may end up in a sudden collapse. At that time, even the elite crane control soldiers may be implicated and tired of these defeated troops.
Therefore, Zhao Sheng simply gave up on all other soldiers and horses except the crane-controlling soldiers. After driving these soldiers and horses forward, he used fire belts to separate them from the crane-controlling soldiers.
If they dare to retreat, they will inevitably end up in a sea of fire. All that is left is to fight with the Jin army.
So what if these soldiers and horses are really useless, but with so many people piled up in the narrow streets, it will take some time for the Jin army to accept their surrender!
During this period of time, after this, the more controlled crane soldiers were still blocking here. After these two trips, it was enough to involve most of the Jin army for a long time. This period of time was enough for Zhao Kuangyin to retreat to a safe distance.
As for the other small groups of pursuers, Zhao Kuangyin can only find a solution by himself!
Zhao Sheng had already used various means to hold back most of the Jin army. It was already quite difficult, so he wouldn't have to put everything on others!
As for those abandoned soldiers and horses, it doesn't mean that Zhao Sheng completely ignored them. There were still many generals from the Zhao family watching them. Someone had to lure these big soldiers to fight.
If there really isn't a general following, all of these soldiers may actually surrender! Even if they have been abandoned, they must at least exert their final value and allow these people to struggle for the last time. Then let
They struggled one last time.
Ever since Pengcheng was captured, there were not many generals in Zhao Kuangyin's power who could be trusted. Even the generals who came from the Zhao clan, there were also very few who could be trusted.
Who says that people from the same clan cannot surrender to the enemy? Zhao Ji and his son are an example right before our eyes!
But at least, relatively speaking, even if they are no longer trusted, at least these people from the same family are slightly better than those with foreign surnames.
Wang Zhongsi and Yu Wenxian led the army to attack. The strategy they implemented at first was to fight and kill fiercely. Everyone knew that the opponent's soldiers were already a group of lost dogs. They hit and charged fiercely, knocking away the last courage of the opponent.
Didn't a group of defeated soldiers just let them control it?
However, these two men were both famous generals, and they soon discovered that something was wrong. The opponent's retreat had been cut off by the fire belt. The harder they killed, if they did not leave any way for the opponent to survive, it would have the opposite effect.
Therefore, after discovering this, the two men immediately changed their strategies, took a step back and changed the previous fierce fighting and killing to appeasement and surrender!
Although it takes a little more work, it can save a lot of casualties!
If they really don't leave any way for the other side to survive and force the other side to burn their boats, in the end, even if this army is wiped out, they themselves will never feel better.
"Brother Wang, the fire will stop immediately!"
While appeasing the surrendering troops, Wang Zhongsi and Yu Wenxian did not forget to pay attention to the movements of the crane-controlling soldiers after the raging fire.
Of course, it was impossible for a fire belt to burn for such a long time. By the time it burned, Wang Zhongsi and Yu Wenxian had almost completed the task of recruiting and surrendering this soldier.
When Zhao Sheng withdrew the broken troops and horses to the city gate, he ordered people to bring in a large amount of kerosene. It is precisely because of the existence of this kerosene that this fire belt can be sustained for a long time.
of burning.
The fire was about to dissipate, and the men and horses on both sides could vaguely see the figure of the other side's military formation. Everyone's breathing began to become heavier. Both sides were making final adjustments and preparing to launch the final fight.
"Brother Yuwen, this crane-controlling soldier is an elite in the Central Plains. I heard that he once blocked the impact of the tiger and leopard cavalry. This is not like those soft persimmons just now!" Wang Zhongsi wiped off the remaining blood on the sword in his hand and looked vaguely.
The solemn look on the face of the strict military formation after the raging fire is self-evident.
During the war in the Central Plains, Cao Cao once took the risk of sending tiger and leopard cavalry to attack Zhao Kuangyin's Chinese army camp, but they were blocked by the foot soldiers Kang He. It could be said that he lost everything, including his own brother Cao Cao.
Many generals led by De also stayed there.
"Drink! It's a pity that Zhao Kuangyin's most elite man may no longer exist today!" Yu Wenxian shook his head, but the expression on his face remained serious.
The trapped camp has circled from outside the city to outside the city gate, blocking the back of the crane-controlling soldiers. Now the crane-controlling soldiers have no way to go to heaven and no way to enter the earth.
It is already a matter of time to solve this group of troops, but both Yu Wenxian and Wang Zhongsi know very well that the casualties required in the process will definitely not be small.
Of course, no matter how heavy the casualties are, as long as it can be solved, Zhao Kuangyin's first elite team will definitely be worth it.
Among Zhao Kuangyin's several elite soldiers and horses, the Controller Soldier, although he has been in the army for a short time, is indeed the number one elite under the opponent's command.
After all, as Zhao Kuangyin's two signature troops in the early days, whether they were golden guns or silver armors, these two troops were more likely to be Zhao Kuangyin's personal barracks, and each troop only had a thousand soldiers.
Naturally, the golden gun value of a thousand-man scale or the silver armor value of a thousand-man scale cannot be compared with the crane-controlling soldiers of an eight-thousand-man scale.
"Get ready, the real bloody battle will begin next!" An ugly smile appeared on Wang Zhongsi's lips.
Even if the casualties required in the process were greater, it could not change their confidence and will to destroy this elite group of Central Plains troops.
It is more meaningful to deal with such an elite force than to deal with the opponent's tens of thousands of troops.
The combat power of this elite soldier and horse is really not necessarily worse than tens of thousands of ordinary soldiers and horses.
The morale of Zhao Kuangyin's soldiers and horses is now declining, and only a few elite soldiers and horses are really capable of fighting. Those ordinary soldiers and horses are now a big drag on Zhao Kuangyin, and the morale problem has not been solved.
This was always the case before.
Moreover, Zhao Kuangyin's food problem has still not been solved, and it will inevitably explode if time continues to drag on.
To deal with the opponent's equal combat strength, one must select an elite battalion with a smaller number, leaving the opponent's huge ordinary troops to wear down the opponent's logistics.
