Tie Mo had already left Mianchang Town, and the army was setting off. He followed at a distance. The final battle was about to come. There could be no peace within a hundred miles. Moreover, this battle was about the ownership of Yan'an Prefecture in northern Shaanxi.
, just when he was needed to boost morale. Hai Lanzhu naturally followed him. A military newspaper was passed into Hai Lanzhu's hands. She glanced at it twice, but then folded the newspaper. Tie Mo kept thinking about the battle situation and didn't pay attention.
When it came to this detail, Wang Zuoguan was very close and saw everything. He couldn't help but ask in a low voice, "What's going on?"
"Read it yourself." Hai Lanzhu thought for a while and handed the general report to Wang Zuoguan. Wang Zuoguan took a look at the contents of the military report and couldn't help but clenched his fists. The veins on his forehead swelled and he made a clicking sound.
.
Tie Mo finally noticed that something was wrong, and reached out to get the general's newspaper. When he knew what happened, his chest was filled with anger. Zhao Mingjiu actually died in the battle at Shiqiao Stronghold, and his head was propped up on a wooden stake, "Very good
, does this man named Ma Huihuan have some courage? Does he want to anger me? Send an order to Dingshan and ask him to gather all the cavalry to the Shiqiao stronghold. Don't worry about Wang Ziyu in the west. I want to destroy this first.
You bunch of beasts, do you really think you can do whatever you want if you have the upper hand in military strength?"
"Okay, I'll pass the order right away." Hai Lanzhu knew that it was useless to say more. This man's mind had been made up and it was difficult to change it. Moreover, whether the five thousand cavalry went to the Shiqiao stronghold or the southwest front line, the impact was not too big.
As long as you can defeat Ma Huanhuan's soldiers and horses in one day, everything will be worth it.
When the military order came, Zhou Dingshan was planning how to deploy infantry and cavalry. However, when the military order came, he would not delay. He immediately ordered all the resting cavalry to move to the Shiqiao stronghold in the north, just in time to cooperate with Chen Yaofeng's army to storm the Shiqiao stronghold.
.
The area of the Shiqiao stronghold is not large, which is why Zhao Mingjiu only has a thousand soldiers around him. The station is so big that there are too many people to hold it. After a fierce battle, the soldiers and horses returning to the circle also need to rest. Although there are some casualties,
However, the combat strength still reached more than 7,200 people. With such a large number of troops, Ma Huanhuan was still confident.
With a bang, the door was pushed open, and a leader walked in in a panic, "Leader Ma, news from the front, two armies of officers and soldiers are approaching us from the east and south. The south side is all cavalry.
There are no less than 3,000 troops, and the troops led by Zhang Zhang are blocked fifty miles away by the officers and soldiers. The situation is not good for us now."
Hiss, there were gasping sounds all around, and the always arrogant Ma Huihuan also showed a look of horror. There were actually a large number of cavalry. The combined number of infantry and cavalry was estimated to reach tens of thousands. The officers and soldiers were really brave enough.
A small stone bridge stronghold, one-third of the troops were mobilized at once.
Zhuo Ke's face was very ugly, and he even glared at Ma Huihuan, humming, wasn't it to scare the officers and soldiers? Now it's better, the officers and soldiers were not frightened, and they really gathered a large number of troops to kill them. The intention of the officers and soldiers was so obvious, they just wanted to take advantage of the situation.
Before the fighting started on the east and west sides, a large number of troops were assembled to capture the Shiqiao stronghold first. All this was due to Ma Huihuan. Without his arrogant behavior, the officers and soldiers would not have been so ruthless.
Ma Huihuan is arrogant, but he is not stupid. He is not afraid at all when facing tens of thousands of infantry. The problem is that now the opponent's infantry and cavalry are combined, which is a bit scary. The Shiqiao stronghold is so small, most of the soldiers and horses are
Stationed outside, relying on pure infantry and lacking corresponding ordnance, how can we jointly fight with other people's infantry and cavalry? These officers and soldiers are really a bunch of mad dogs, and they just ignore them for revenge?
At the end of the day, the war broke out again in the Shiqiao stronghold that had just been quiet for a long time. After Chen Yaofeng rested for half an hour, he immediately ordered a wild goose formation to threaten the Shiqiao stronghold. A tall shield stood in front, and a spear protruded from the gap. Every step forward
, all accompanied by a sky-shaking roar. The formation of wild geese separated to the left and right, and the middle was thick, like a rainbow penetrating the sun, piercing everything.
More than 5,000 people, like a black cloud, slowly moved over the heads of the bandits. The bandits felt tremendous pressure. When they stormed the stronghold before, they had seen the power of the officers and soldiers, and now so many people were approaching in weird formations.
, can the result be good? At this moment, many people began to scold Ma Huihuan. It was really a fucking deception. If it hadn't been for him, would the officers and soldiers have been staring at a small stone bridge stronghold?
It looked like there was still some distance, but in fact, in the blink of an eye, the two torrents collided together, and the bandits once again felt how powerful the formation of the officers and soldiers was. Shields were equipped with spears, and long swords were used as cover in the gaps. The bandits were like before, thinking
They relied on crazy attacks to tear a hole, but this time they were greeted by cold blades. Anyone who jumped into the shield formation was chopped into pulp. What's more terrible is that the wild goose formation is by no means passive defense.
Instead, it moved slowly. As it approached, the wild goose spread its wings and formed an arc, forcing the rogues into smaller and smaller strategic spaces.
"Ouch...kill" The gap in the shield suddenly appeared. This time, it was not only a spear, but also a hook and sickle gun. The modified hook and sickle gun was sharper and had a double-sided blade. One was sent and the other was drawn.
, cutting several people, most of them were injured in the legs, and fell to the ground wailing. Just when the bandits wanted to save those injured, the shields had already pressed forward, and the spears thrust forward in conjunction, forcing the bandits helplessly.
They continued to retreat, and those who were injured and fell to the ground naturally fell into the meat grinder. The shield array crushed them, and the injured people closed their eyes, and there was no more wailing.
The rogue bandits could not break through the Wild Goose Formation, and the strategic space was continuously compressed, slowly squeezing into a group. In the end, only the outer layer could reach out to fight. The crowd was crowded, and the feeling of suffocation made people think of death.
Within an hour of the battle, the entire stronghold underwent earth-shaking changes. The strong soldiers that Ma Huihuan was proud of, after resisting tenaciously for a quarter of an hour, the formation collapsed. The front line was continuously squeezed. The worst was undoubtedly those who relied on it.
The people who formed a formation around the stronghold wall were quickly unable to retreat in the face of the forcefully pushed formation of wild geese.
With the gate of the stronghold as the center, the rogue bandits were slowly squeezed into an oval formation, and the strategic space became smaller and smaller. By the end, they were so crowded that the people in the middle had difficulty even breathing. Faced with such a predicament, the rogue bandits
Slowly coming back to their senses, they understood that if they didn't think of any other solution, they would really have to be at the mercy of others. However, how could it be so easy to find an opportunity?
The wild goose formation relies on shields, and spears poke out from the gaps, just like a forest of metal spears inlaid in the city wall, like a huge hedgehog. Although it moves slowly, as long as it pierces, the effect is very obvious. These bandits have been trapped for a long time.
The horses were trained cruelly, and there was a beast-like ferocity in their bones. Under the desperate situation, many people became irrational. Looking at the shield that was getting closer and closer, it was like an airtight wall, and they roared forward.
Go, use both feet to exert force, and your body will hit the shield like a cannonball.
Many people failed to rush forward and were directly stabbed to death by the protruding spears. However, many people still hit the shield forcefully. One or two had no effect, but the desperate bandits followed the same example. Slowly,
The peasant soldiers on the periphery began to use their bodies to hit the shield array. Faced with the rogue bandits' crazy blocking methods, the overwhelming force of the Dayan array was finally temporarily blocked. Chen Yaofeng's offensive was temporarily stopped, and the rogue bandits in the stronghold finally had their way.
A little respite.
Zhuo Ke stood on the archery tower and stared at the entire stronghold battlefield with cold eyes. He blamed Ma Huihuan for his willfulness. If he hadn't angered the officers and soldiers, how could he have fallen into such an embarrassing situation? The officers and soldiers' revenge came too fast and was quite violent.
Although the opponent's attack was temporarily blocked, the price was too heavy. In just one hour, more than 3,000 soldiers and horses stationed outside the stronghold had been lost. If the attack continued like this, none of the rebel brothers near the stronghold would survive.
And it's all just because of Ma Huihuan's arrogance.
Just when Zhuo Ke was racking his brains and thinking about the next way out, the rumbling drums sounded again, but the officers and soldiers besieging the stronghold slowly retreated. Zhuo Ke was stunned for a moment. What on earth were the officers and soldiers doing, other than hearing the drums?
Going forward, how to retreat, or retreating when you have the advantage? It is simply unbelievable. Are reinforcements arriving? Zhuo Ke's doubts did not last long, and he soon got the answer. The officers and soldiers did not really retreat, but began to change their formations.
, the Wild Goose Formation, which originally had the central army as the backbone and was surrounded by two wings, was slowly divided and turned into two conical formations. What is even weirder is that there are two circular formations composed of thousands of people on the left and right sides of the two conical formations.
Array.
In the blink of an eye, the two armies collided with each other again. The bandits who had just got a chance to breathe were on the verge of tears, and Zhuo Ke finally showed a look of horror. He finally understood the power of this strange formation. The two of them were crying.
The cone-shaped formation used shields to form a triangular head, and the spears stabbed fiercely. Such a sharp formation cut the crowded bandits bit by bit, looking like a pair of scissors.
The circular formations on both sides also have shields on the outside, but the inside is dominated by swordsmen and musketeers. The circular formation does not cut forward like the conical formation, but only defends on both sides. The formation keeps rotating and harvesting the outer layers of farmers.
The lives of the soldiers were sacrificed. It was truly a terrifying formation, with the conical formation cutting and the circular formation responsible for strangling the enemy outside. The coordination was perfect.
Zhuo Ke hated Ma Huihuan, but at this time he could only rely on Ma Huihuan. He hurriedly slid down from the arrow tower and found Ma Huihuan with a cold face in a few steps. "Ma Huihuan, try to break out of the encirclement.
It collapsed. In terms of head-on confrontation, we are no match for the officers and soldiers. Once the remaining soldiers are trapped in the stronghold, we will have no way to survive. Now if we break through, we may still escape."
Zhuo Ke was angry with Ma Huihuan, and as the current situation was not optimistic, he didn't have much respect for Ma Huihuan in his heart. Now he started to call Ma Huihuan by his name. This time, Ma Huihuan did not glare and reprimand, but silently
He has a flamboyant temperament and is arrogant and domineering, but he is not stupid. Judging from the previous battles, the officers and soldiers are really good at fighting, so breaking out is the best choice.
At this time, Ma Huihuan no longer had the arrogant attitude he had before, and he also felt a little regretful in his heart, but there is no medicine for regret in the world. Besides, with his temperament, he was unlikely to admit his mistakes, so he had no choice but to nod at Zhuo Ke.
"People in the stronghold, abandon the city, charge with me, and fight a bloody path."
Ma Huihuan's marching formation was not even close to Zhuo Ke's, but he did his best to fight before the battle. Ma Huihuan was like a manic lion, rushing towards the entrance of the stronghold. Although he was not riding a horse, he relied on his whole body strength to kill him.
The cone-shaped station that came over was smashed on its head. Ma Huihuan's strength had reached an outrageous level. With continued strength, the two shield soldiers were shocked to the point of bleeding from their orifices and knocked unconscious.
Even though the officers and soldiers were well-informed and brave, their hearts trembled when they were suppressed by the violent aura on Ma Huihuan's body. The key point of the cone-shaped formation is the starting part. Once the starting part is broken up, the cone-shaped formation's
The impact was gone. The horse ring was still the same horse ring, as if he was born for war. His joining not only blocked the sharp cone formation, but also brought hope to the remaining bandits, who almost fell to the bottom for a while.
The bandits who were beaten down let out a shocking cry. Not only did they stabilize their position, they even started to counterattack.
Chen Yaofeng was at the rear and saw everything clearly. He was about to finish the job, but a huge change happened. After a fierce battle, although the bandits suffered heavy casualties, their own side also suffered considerable losses. Until now,
There are less than 4,000 men under Chen Yaofeng who can actually continue fighting. In other words, in terms of military strength alone, the rogue bandits will not suffer any loss, and may even have a slight advantage.
Chen Yaofeng had a headache. Now the two conical formations had penetrated into the rogue formation, and they could not retreat even if they wanted to. At this time, Chen Yaofeng also secretly blamed himself for being impatient. He thought he could rely on his soldiers and horses to swallow them all in one go.
The rogue bandits did not expect that the other party would be so brave and did not collapse in the face of continuous pressure. Under the leadership of Ma Huihuan, the rogue bandits' counterattacks became more and more fierce. Many officers and soldiers who rushed into the formation were also surrounded by the angry bandits.
Now that they were standing up, the circular formations on both wings were in a bad situation. Although they killed countless enemies, the rogue bandits were less pressured and slowly began to circle around the circular formation, with a strong tendency to surround the circular formation.
Chen Yaofeng's scalp was numb and he quickly waved his hand, "Ming Jin, order all troops to quickly get rid of the entanglement and withdraw from the battle."
Chen Yaofeng had no choice but to do this. If he didn't withdraw his troops at this time, the soldiers and horses under his command would really be swallowed up by the rogue bandits who made a crazy counterattack. As soon as the ringing signal was sent, the officers and soldiers began to shrink back, and the circles on both wings
The formation also slowly retreated to both sides, but even if they reacted quickly enough, nearly a thousand soldiers still died in the rogue bandits' counterattack. Ma Huihuan was very excited, his eyebrows raised, and his face was full of arrogance. Hum, officers and soldiers also bully the weak and fear the strong.
