"The people of the Qing Dynasty are on the axis, and the Si is in charge of Tao Tao. Turning left and right, the Chinese army is doing well." [Poetry·Zheng Feng·People of the Qing Dynasty]
Now the battlefield was one-sided from the beginning. Yuan Shao had more troops and was at home, but he was defeated by the combined forces of the Northern and Southern armies. The combined strength of the Northern and Southern armies was not as large as that of Yuan's army, and they came from far away from Kansai.
But he chased and beat him like crazy.
If Gao Shun, the commander of the Northern Army, had not deliberately suppressed and maintained steady tactics, guarding the central army tightly while ordering cavalry on the left and right to attack to open up the situation, I am afraid that the Northern and Southern armies would have already overwhelmed Yuan's army.
"Zhonghou, they are in chaos." Shesheng Colonel Yan Yan said in a deep voice.
Ju Jun, the general of the Tiger Army who temporarily retreated from the front line, was supposed to be the person with the highest military rank present. At this time, he did not dare to issue orders without permission, so he turned his attention to Gao Shun.
"Xiebo." In the middle of the Northern Army, Lieutenant Gao Shun looked intently at the military formation not far away. Wen Chou sent two troops to block Changshui, Yu Lin and other cavalry troops were instantly defeated.
Being charged by the cavalry was extremely chaotic. But before it was time to go all out, Gao Shun calmed down and said in a steady voice: "Is there any difference between staying behind the middle camp and behind the infantry camp?"
Except for ambushes or other special battles, generally speaking, the sound battalion, dominated by archers and crossbowmen, almost always hides behind the infantry, using the cover of the infantry's swords and shields to launch volleys at the enemy.
This is not only the basic tactics of the Northern and Southern armies, but also other armies. However, Gao Shun asked the question on this occasion. After making Yan Yan feel strange, he still answered truthfully: "If it is mainly about defense, it should be in
It is more appropriate to use the armor of the middle base battalion. If you are waiting for an opportunity to attack, the infantry battalion will be more agile."
Gao Shun didn't know what he thought of, but one sentence changed his previous impartial image among the Northern Army camps: "No, Zhongba Camp is more suitable for Shesheng Camp."
Yan Yan was stunned when he heard this, and subconsciously looked to the side. Fortunately, the infantry colonel Zhao Yun and the infantry battalion were not here. Otherwise, with the usual pride of the Northern and Southern armies, even the middle commander of the Northern army would not be able to say such partial words.
However, Gao Shun didn't seem to have thought of this. He reached out and patted Yan Yan on the shoulder, even though the other person was much older than him: "When Yuan Shao is defeated, I will treat each battalion to a drink."
The other party once again subverted his image of strict laws and regulations, leaving Yan Yan dumbfounded. He didn't know what stimulated the other party.
"The time has come." Gao Shun was still paying attention to the changes in the situation on the battlefield even as he spoke. He calmly gave the order, as he had practiced again and again: "The Shesheng Battalion fires for the last time, hit the base, and the whole army attacks."
"Here!" Yan Yan habitually clasped her fists and obeyed the order.
He and Ju Jun turned around to deliver the order. Ju Jun quietly said to Yan Yan, "You don't have to take it to heart. I learned about Lu Bu's death later and I felt unhappy."
"Lü Bu?" Yan Yan said curiously. He was a general in the middle of Shu. He was not familiar with the generals of the Northern and Southern Army. He only knew that Gao Shun had served under Lu Bu, but he did not know about their relationship.
But it was not their turn to sit down and chat at this time. Once Gao Shun's military order was issued, they had to mobilize the entire army of archers, crossbows and infantry to attack Wen Chou in stages.
Wen Chou's two wings were defeated, the belly of the central army was flooded, and Yu Lin and other cavalry were thrown into chaos. Even the vanguard he led was in chaos, and the soldiers who rushed to the front also fled back.
At this time, the Shesheng battalion on the opposite side methodically completed the last salvo in accordance with the military order. This kind of projectile was not accurate, and the arrow rain only covered the enemy's formation in a wide range, making Wen Chou's forward even more confused.
The archers had finished firing their arrows, and even the elite crossbowmen's arms were sore from the high-intensity shooting. Even so, they still pulled out the daggers hanging from their waists, and protected them in twos and threes with the lightly armored Tiger and Ben troops.
A's middle camp soldier looked at the chaotic swarm of people on the opposite side through the thick shoulders of his companions. They moved forward step by step, and their neat formation gradually became sparse.
The distance was getting closer, and they seemed to be able to clearly see each other's frightened faces, which seemed to be swaying like reeds in the dense forest of guns and knives.
The cavalry was causing chaos in the rear of the enemy, and Wen Chou and other troops were unable to advance or retreat. This allowed the middle camp, which was dominated by heavy infantry, to advance calmly. It was okay for them to rush forward quickly, but they walked slowly and unhurriedly, giving the enemy extra ammunition.
There came a frightening pressure.
clang
One of the Yuan soldiers tried to stab him with a spear, but he was blocked by a soldier from the middle camp with a knife. The sharp spearhead scraped against the black armor and drew a spark.
Before the Yuan Jun could be frightened, several long spears and short swords stretched out from behind the middle camp soldier, piercing the Yuan Jun's weak armor. The middle camp soldier swung his sword coldly.
, a head flew up.
Several people took a few steps forward, using the same method and the same method, like a farmer walking into the rice field with a sickle, holding it with his hands, and cutting the rice ears in his hands.
Sima Hemao, another subordinate of Yuan Shao, hurriedly responded to the enemy in front of the battle. He had just gathered a group of soldiers, but before he could give the order, he was shot in the cheek by a cold arrow from the opponent. He suddenly bled profusely and fell backward.
Lieutenant Lingbao, the commander of Huben and Huben who had made a lot of contributions from the soldiers of Yizhou County, did not give the opponent a chance to struggle. He followed closely and slashed the knife down. The arm that He Mao finally raised was immediately chopped off, and in his hand
The knife fell heavily to the ground. Several Hu Benlangs were immediately added behind Lingbao, and two or three spears were thrust in at the same time. With a few screams, the ragtag group in front of him was killed and dispersed.
People kept yelling, cursing, and giving orders loudly. The originally densely packed Wen Chou troops were quickly sieved by Zhong base, Huben and other troops. More and more Huben troops, Zhong base soldiers rushed in with small formations, and gradually formed
They formed a formation, echoed each other, and continued to deepen.
The front is about to be unable to withstand it, and the troops behind are being crossed back and forth by Tunqi, Changshui, Yulin and other cavalry, separated and isolated. In this situation, let alone the reinforcements sent by the camp. Wen Chou is riding on the horse
, his face became more and more serious. He had a bad temper, but he couldn't bear it anymore. He immediately gave up the importance of being the commander-in-chief of the central army, and resolutely led the last light cavalry to launch an assault.
Lingbao had just spat blood out of his mouth, and in the blink of an eye he saw Gao Shun, who was rarely seen, riding on a strong green horse. Gao Shun was very particular about sharing joys and sorrows when he led troops in training. Since the soldiers in the middle camp had to train with heavy armor every day, Gao Shun
He also took the lead in the army. Not only did he wear heavy armor in the army, but he didn't even ride a horse.
Over the past few years, due to his excellent military skills and flexible combat style, both the Northern and Southern armies regarded Gao Shun as the first step in the battle. However, they did not expect that Gao Shun, riding on a green horse, was more like an excellent heavy soldier.
Armored Cavalry Commander!
"If this were told to anyone, who would believe that this is the lieutenant of the middle base?" Lingbao said with emotion in an instant.
Before Gao Shun and the oncoming Wen Chou met, Lingbao suddenly heard a burst of cheers. He looked towards the enemy formation behind Wen Chou and saw a head being raised high.
