Compared with Situ Lie's anxiety, Hengshi Hassan stood on the north bank of Fengling Ferry with a contented look. Who said that nomads are just a group of barbarians who only know how to charge into battle? They have fought a lifetime of war with the Qingfeng Empire and the Mandan Dynasty, and
Being able to survive to this day in the chaos of the army, he naturally has his own uniqueness. After all, Hasan Hengshi of Iron Eagle, Memphis of Tyumen, and Kipchak Khan of Rouran are all famous generals on the prairie.
Today, he just used a little trick to catch the opponent off guard. At present, the number of Iron Eagle soldiers on the south bank of Fengling Ferry has exceeded 5,000, and most of them have gone ashore and established their positions. They have even opened up a
A small bridgehead. Once the number of soldiers on the shore exceeds 10,000, I believe there will be no suspense in this battle.
"Tell me, when will the support from the prefect arrive?" Situ Lie almost roared, grabbing the neck of the soldier who reported the news and roared.
"General, Mr. Zheng asked me to tell you that all the manpower and material resources in Shizhou have been supported at the Hukou Ferry. But he asked you to hold on for a while, and he has already started to form reinforcements." The soldier said with some difficulty in breathing.
Already starting to form reinforcements? Situ Lie felt a wry smile in his heart. In order to rescue the four million people in Jinzhou City, Haotian has almost exhausted all the manpower, material and financial resources in Hetao. Although everyone knows that this is inevitable
, but doing so will undoubtedly use up all of his reserve forces. In other words, he only has 20,000 soldiers under his command, and there is no possibility of increasing his number.
The number of soldiers at Fengling Ferry has exceeded 10,000, and the number is still increasing. Without the interference of trebuchets, the Iron Eagle people are becoming more proficient in boat handling skills, and their speed is getting faster and faster.
.The soldiers on the ferry side were no longer able to be driven into the river by Situ Lie in one go. This made the original plan of relying on the superior force to completely force and kill the Iron Eagle people aborted.
"General, brothers can't stand it any longer. When will the reinforcements arrive?" Wang Xian ran up to him covered in blood and said. There was a long gash on his face. There was no time to bandage it, so the blood was still there.
It is constantly seeping out and looks extremely ferocious.
"There are no reinforcements! Tell brothers, there are no reinforcements behind us. Our only hope is ourselves!" Situ Lie said viciously, then grabbed his Mo Dao and rushed towards the battlefield with murderous intent.
Spring Sword Appreciation and Zhan Shu Tang did not experience much pressure at the beginning, because the team had been moving forward slowly, Xue Sha and Xin Ke were also frantically clearing the way, and Dugu Yuming was also frantically clearing all obstacles in front. Hao
Tian personally led the army to block all pursuits from behind. Although the number of people on the flanks they were responsible for covering was not large, relatively speaking, they received the least attacks. However, as Cassimbas withdrew and blocked Dugu Yuming in front
The army turned to attack the flanks of the army, and their pressure suddenly increased a lot.
Due to the shortage of troops, each of the four-mile-long team had only 20,000 soldiers in their hands. Among the soldiers, there were 50,000 soldiers holding various weapons and even wooden sticks.
The plundered men in fine clothing were captured. And beside them, there were tens of thousands of well-equipped Northeastern Three Kingdoms Allied Forces. The long defense line and superior strength allowed the opponent to freely choose one or more breakthroughs. And the enemy
Whether it is Yelu Minghui in the north or Jin Zongbiao in the south, they are both experienced in the battlefield. They all know that their purpose this time is to kill the opponent's effective forces as much as possible. And they have indeed put this point into play.
Incisively and vividly.
Concentrate superior forces, quickly open a gap, and attract all the Hetao soldiers near the gap. Then, when the opponent's defense line is weak, the cavalry that has been waiting there will quickly break into the opponent's weak part and inflict damage on the opponent.
The illusion of penetrating into their core will be used to attract the surrounding soldiers to come to rescue them desperately. This will not only make the opponent exhausted, but also maximize the damage to the opponent during the movement.
Due to the lack of sufficient troops, both Zhan Shutang and Chun Jian Shang complained endlessly. They both understood that the other party was doing this to trap and kill their own effective forces, and they also understood that they were completely trying to quench their thirst by tearing down the east wall to make up for the west wall. However, they did not
They have to do this because no one dares to take such a risk. Among their 20,000 soldiers, 50,000 strong men, and the rest of the captive men, there are more than 3 million Chinese people. Some of them are young.
Children, some were haggard women, and some were gray-haired old people. Facing the opponent's elite army, they had no resistance at all. Therefore, the only thing the Hetao soldiers could do was to pave the way for them with their own lives.
Just a road to hope.
The sun has tilted towards the western horizon, and the afterglow of the setting sun is pouring on this land. The soldiers from both sides have been fighting here for a long time. Cassimbas's strategy is undoubtedly extremely correct, although
In front of Dugu Yuming, there were only 50,000 soldiers led by Baijing General Hekimur. However, due to the powerful sniper attack on the flanks of the army, the advancing team stopped again. In order to ensure the safety of the flanks, Xin Ke and Xue Muer
Sha Shi led the cavalry to attack the opponent's formation desperately, and Dugu Yuming also gritted his teeth and divided 10,000 soldiers from his forward to support Zhan Shutang and the other two. However, these 10,000 soldiers were a drop in the bucket, although there was a temporary relief.
The dilemma between the two people was briefly discussed, but after a while, the situation returned to a deadlock.
At this time, no one can help them. The only thing they can rely on is the weapons in their hands and the comrades around them. But what makes the soldiers of Hetao happy is that although the situation is extremely unfavorable, no soldier has flinched. Because behind them is
Millions of fellow soldiers could not escape. In order to provide a safe environment for the fellow citizens behind them, countless soldiers fell silently on this land and were trampled into pieces by countless footsteps.
Meat puree.
The bloody battles of the soldiers also completely inspired the bloody spirit of the captured and strong men around them. During the days of being captured as slaves, they had already forged an unforgettable deep hatred with the aliens outside the Great Wall. Although they
Some of the weapons in their hands were only crude weapons, and some were even rough wood or even stones, but they were not afraid. When the enemy's cold blade stabbed their chests, they did not avoid it, but used their own
They grasped the opponent's weapon tightly with both hands. Because they understood that the comrades around them would never let go of such an opportunity. Maybe for every enemy killed, they would sacrifice the lives of two, three, or even four or five people.
, but they didn't care. In the face of death, they still kept going.
The defense line on the flanks was already riddled with holes under the crazy attack of the Northeastern Three Kingdoms Allied Forces. Although the soldiers were still struggling to support the defense line from collapsing, small groups of enemy troops would still break into the formation from time to time and then brutally massacre them.
They guarded the elders inside until they were killed. However, facing these alien soldiers who were armed to the teeth, and facing death that could come at any time, the millions of elders and fellow villagers in the formation did not have a trace of fear. They just
Jingjing stood in his position, with a calm and determined expression. When the army advanced, they also moved forward. When the army stopped, they also stopped. And in the team in front, there were occasionally two children who were
They were so frightened that they cried loudly, and the older children next to them would soon comfort them. Outside the phalanx, although there were loud sounds of killing and blood flowing into the river, it was still calm inside. There was no wind and cold rain inside,
There are no dark clouds here, but only determination, infinite strength and hope.
Haotian's rear troops were also in trouble at this time. When the army advanced, their pressure was relatively small. But once the army stopped, their pressure would inevitably double. Fortunately, Haotian's troops were still strong.
And they are all elite divisions. Among the nearly 40,000 soldiers, 30,000 soldiers are veterans who participated in the Battle of Fengling Ferry and even all the battles since Haotian established its foothold in Dingzhou. Although these veterans have also been injured,
They have also shed blood, and some are even disabled. But their combat effectiveness is not inferior to the most elite soldiers of the three Northeastern countries, because they are all veterans who have experienced hundreds of battles. They have experience, belief and fighting spirit. They
They have had the experience of escaping from death, so they understand how to kill the enemy with the minimum cost, and they also understand what they need to die worthwhile. In the face of the surging enemy army, they remain calm.
, meaningless.
As for Haotian's two thousand personal guards, one thousand of them are the best disciples Tianwu Xinghe has accumulated over the decades. Their skills are all the best. Although their discipline is not as good as real soldiers, they are tough and tough.
Their individual combat capabilities can make up for this shortcoming. Especially in such a melee, their combat power has been fully utilized. The remaining 1,000 soldiers are among the 300,000 troops in Hetao.
The most outstanding soldiers, although their personal combat prowess is slightly inferior to that of Tianwu Xinghe's disciples, they have iron discipline. To make up for the two, the two thousand soldiers complement each other even more. Northeastern died under their swords.
The Three Kingdoms Allied Forces are countless.
On the hill, Cassimbas obviously discovered the strength of this army at the first time. Especially when he found out that this army was Haotian's personal guard, he paid even more attention to this army. From then on, he
Fifty thousand soldiers were drawn from the siege troops on both wings, and all of them joined the team attacking the rear of the Hetao army. He was convinced that as long as he could kill this team, the Hetao army would never escape from his grasp.
The bloody killings and letter engravings on the frontal battlefield were obviously aware of the dangerous situation of the army, so they attacked at all costs, hoping to open the way for the army. However, Jiang was still old and hot, and Cassimbas was indeed experienced in using troops.
Under his precise mobilization of the soldiers in his hands, more than 100,000 cavalry tightly entangled the two cavalry teams in the Hetao. On the side of the hill, with the help of 30,000 cavalry and 50,000 infantry, they also completed the attack.
Surrounded by 20,000 cavalrymen.
At this time, Haotian had vaguely seen the traces of the river a few miles away. There was only a distance of five miles between Dugu Yuming and Bian Zhongxing. However, in this short five miles
In the meantime, there were more than 100,000 troops from Yelu Chixian and Heji Mu'er. It was like a natural chasm, ruthlessly cutting the 300,000 troops in Hetao into two sections. Haotian suddenly felt agitated in his heart. If he continues
If this continues, his 300,000-strong army will inevitably be annihilated. The only way is to rush to Hukou Ferry as soon as possible and concentrate all forces to build a semi-circular defensive position to cover more than 3 million fellow villagers across the river. As long as it can be allowed
If these people cross the river safely, then there will be no burden on the 300,000-strong army. However, with Cassimbas's sophistication, can he let himself get what he wants?
On the battlefield, Haotian's army was completely in trouble. After evacuating 10,000 soldiers, Dugu Yuming still maintained the offensive, but his advance was extremely slow. The two wings of the army had to protect the center.
There are millions of people, and although there is not much difference in the strength of the two sides, Zhan Shu Tang and Chun Jian Shang tried their best to only protect themselves, and were unable to launch a counterattack. Although Haotian's rear troops are particularly brave, but in the
After Cassimbas added 50,000 troops, he was still struggling to support himself. Although the cavalry who killed three people were still fighting bloody battles, they were tightly entangled by the enemy and could not provide any support to the army.
help.
Gritting his teeth, Haotian finally made up his mind. Looking around at the people around him, Haotian said slowly: "Come here, put up my flag!"
On the battlefield, especially in such an environment, raising the commander's flag naturally means that he is preparing to fight to the death. And the reason why Haotian wants to erect the commander's flag is not only to set up a commander's flag for the 300,000 Hetao army.
A belief, and more importantly, he hopes to attract more enemy troops to himself.
In order to lay this trap, Cassimbas mobilized the more than 500,000 troops he could muster. Now Bian Zhongxing and Dugu Yuming were blocked by the 150,000 soldiers of Yelu Chixian and Hekimul.
There are a little more than 100,000 cavalry, and there are about 80,000 soldiers attacking Zhanshu Tang and Chunjian Shang on the north and south wings of the battlefield, plus about 80,000 troops besieging Haotian and 30,000 cavalry and 50,000 infantry surrounding Fengjing.
Simbas doesn't have many reserves in his hands now. If he can attract as many Northeastern coalition forces as possible now, the pressure on the army will definitely be reduced a lot.
Sure enough, as soon as Kasimbas saw Haotian's handsome flag, a smile suddenly appeared on his face. Without hesitation, he again mobilized a team of 50,000 people from the battlefield in front. He believed that with Haotian in the six states of Hetao
As long as it can bite Haotian's position, it will firmly hold back the Hetao army.
