Chapter 51 The ambition to be trapped in the enemy's battlefield, life or death
Chapter 51: The ambition to be trapped is life or death
Looking indifferently at the enemy troops on the opposite side who were relatively neatly formed, Gao Shun pulled out the long sword from his waist with an expressionless face, swung the sword directly at the enemy troops, and shouted coldly: "Fall into the camp, disperse, wolf formation."
"Ding dong, Gao Shun's skill 'Trap' is activated."
"Entrapment: Gao Shun's unique skill, which stimulates the general's soldiers' morale, force, physical strength, cooperation, and tacit understanding to increase... Gao Shun's commander +4, force +2. If this skill is combined with the legend trained by Gao Shun himself,
It is activated when the troops are trapped in a camp. If the same number of people fight in the field, they will be invincible."
"Ding dong, Commander Gao Shun is 88, and his force is 89. "Entrapment" is activated, his commander is +4, his force is +2. Currently, Gao Shun's commander is 92, and his force is 91."
"The ambition to be trapped in a battle will lead to death but not life."
The roar of the eight hundred soldiers trapped in the camp was simply louder than the eight thousand people!
The trapped soldiers holding strong shields and wearing heavy armor immediately dispersed after receiving Gao Shun's order. They formed groups of five and were divided into 160 small formations. Like scattered wolves, they plunged directly into the enemy's army.
In the array.
Most of the Wang family's troops are new recruits. It is their first time to face a life-and-death battle. It is not easy to keep the camp together, let alone face the elites who have fought hundreds of battles.
The trap camp is not only elite, but also has sharp blades and strong armor. First of all, the weapons of the Wang family soldiers cannot break the defense of the trap camp. Secondly, the quality of the weapons is also much inferior. After several collisions, the weapons will basically break.
Five people from the trap camp formed a battle formation, cooperated with each other, and coordinated to kill the enemy. Facing the well-equipped trap camp, the five thousand recruits of the Wang family had almost no power to resist.
Before the former soldiers could react, a large number of them were directly killed. After they reacted, they found that their weapons could not penetrate the opponent's armor at all, and their weapons were not as good as trapping them.
The battlefield soon became filled with mourning, and there were broken limbs and broken arms everywhere, just like the hell of Shura.
Wang Shichong looked at the one-sided battlefield and the raging trap camp in horror. He couldn't believe this was true. He said in disbelief: "How is it possible? What kind of army is this?!"
Even those who were laughing just now can no longer laugh. This is not a war, it is simply a massacre on one side!
The wolf formation of the trap camp consists of five people. The division of labor is clear. Those who chop the neck only chop the neck, and those who chop the legs only chop the legs. The sword skills of the elite trap warriors who have been trained for a long time are indeed ruthless. There are heads and limbs everywhere. The scene is very horrifying.
people, which greatly frightened the enemy.
When fighting on the battlefield, generally when one's own side suffers more than one-third of the damage from the battle, morale will drop sharply. If the damage exceeds half, deserters will easily appear.
Facing the extremely ruthless soldiers of the trapped camp who were like killing machines, the former army finally became timid and dared not face the trapped camp. Under the leadership of some "role models", a large-scale rout soon occurred.
Seeing more and more deserters, some even attacking his own formation, Wang Shichong sighed and coldly ordered: "Archers, prepare, aim at the deserters, and release arrows."
When Shan Xiongxin heard this, he couldn't bear it. Although he wanted to stop him, he still lowered his head. His father-in-law did the right thing. Only by using this kind of iron-blooded method can we stop the deserters.
After thousands of arrows were fired, they immediately killed hundreds of deserters. The blood and death greatly frightened the deserters. Seeing this, Wang Shichong struck while the iron was hot and shouted: "Those who advance, kill one person, and be rewarded with ten thousand coins, and those who retreat, kill no one." Pardon."
Wang Shichong's cruelty shocked all the deserters.
No matter how powerful the trapped camp is, there are only 800 people. There will always be times when you get tired, but if you retreat, you will be shot to death by your own people.
In order not to be shot to death by their own people and to get rich rewards, most of the soldiers who fled returned and continued to fight against the trapped camp.
People can always burst out with amazing power under the temptation of interests. However, although the temptation of interests can bring people power, it is also limited, and this power is far from enough to overwhelm the trapped camp.
Looking at the dwindling number of front troops, Wang Shichong's eyes became even colder, and he coldly ordered to his left and right: "Move over all the archers from each army."
Gao Shun immediately noticed the opponent's deployment of troops. After Wang Shichong gathered all the archers together, Gao Shun made a prompt decision and immediately changed his strategy and ordered: "Fall into camp, gather, and prepare the Xuanwu Formation."
As soon as the words fell, the 160 people who had spread out immediately gathered together again and formed a neat circular formation.
"Archers obey orders and aim at the enemy."
Shan Xiongxin, who was standing next to Wang Shichong, was shocked when he heard this. He wondered if he had heard it wrong. His father-in-law was planning to kill the eight hundred elite Yanmen Army at the expense of some of his own people.
"Father-in-law, are you crazy? Our soldiers are still there?" Shan Xiongxin shouted in disbelief.
Shan Xiongxin did not stop him before because Wang Shichong shot deserters, but now his own soldiers are fighting bloody battles in the Wang family, but they die under the arrows of his own people. Shan Xiongxin cannot accept this way of death.
Wang Shichong did not answer Shan Xiongxin, but simply ordered: "Shoot!"
"Fall into camp, raise your shield."
All the soldiers raised their shields at the same time, and the circular shield array immediately formed a steel fortress, leaving no gaps.
"Ah, help"
The arrows that filled the sky like raindrops kept hitting each other, but did not hit a single soldier in the trapped camp. However, most of the Wang family soldiers outside the shield formation of the trapped camp died under the arrows of their own people, and they died with their eyes open.
Looking at the enemy troops who remained motionless after several rounds of shooting, Wang Shichong turned pale and finally murmured: "How is this possible? When did the Yanmen Army gain such an elite division?"
Shan Xiongxin looked at his father-in-law Wang Shichong with a livid face, feeling a little chilly in his heart. Father-in-law, you are really too cruel!
After hearing the sound of arrows hitting the shield becoming smaller, Gao Shun immediately gave the order, saying: "Get into formation and advance!"
The rain of arrows keeps coming, but the trapped camp is like a moving fortress, constantly approaching the arrow formation despite the rain of arrows.
Wang Xiong on one side was already stunned by the ferocity of the trap camp. When he saw the trap camp approaching the formation, he immediately shouted: "Don't let them get close, shoot the arrow quickly, shoot the arrow quickly!"
When several other family heads saw this, they quickly exclaimed.
"Shut up, I don't see that bows and arrows are useless!" Wang Renze roared on the side.
Several family heads were shocked by his momentum, but they did not refute
"The archers retreated to the rear, and ordered the left and right armies to outflank them from both sides!" Wang Shichong was not affected by these people and continued to issue orders calmly.
After a while, the messenger returned in panic.
"Report, General Fang Jie, he, he said..."
"What did he say?" Wang Shichong frowned and had a very bad feeling in his heart.
"General Fang Jie said: That idiot Wang Shichong wants me to be his cannon fodder? No way!"
When Wang Shichong heard this, he flew into a rage. After kicking the ordering soldier away, he cursed: "Short-sighted common man, if my Wang family is defeated, his five thousand soldiers will be able to survive alone."
Wang Shichong really misunderstood Fang Jie this time. After receiving the attack order, Fang Jie immediately wanted to take his men to meet Gao Shun, but was stopped by Dongfang Sheng, so he did not go out.
"Instruct the left army and the central army to attack, surround the enemy on the left and right, and prepare a thousand cavalry to charge."
After the Qin family monopolized the horse business in Yanmen, Bingzhou could no longer buy war horses except from the Qin family.
The Wang family and the five major families purchased war horses from Youzhou and Jizhou, and after years of preparation, they only equipped a thousand cavalry, and they were only one person per horse, so naturally they were extremely valuable and were used to equip the most elite family soldiers.
Yue Fei saw that the enemy's cavalry had formed a formation, but his own cavalry was motionless. He thought that Qin Hao was still young and not proficient in formation warfare, so he was going to use infantry to fight the cavalry, so he reminded him:
"Young Master, the enemy cavalry is about to be dispatched. Although the trapped camp is elite, they are all infantry. It will be too weak to carry the cavalry. Yifei thinks it is better to let the cavalry dispatch."
Qin Hao heard the words and said with a smile: "Brother Yue, there are many things you don't understand when you first join the Yanmen Army. Qin Hao will not make such low-level mistakes as infantry fighting cavalry. General Gao Shun's trap is different from that of ordinary infantry. He will definitely make it."
It’s a surprise for us.”
When Gao Shun saw the enemy's troop movements, he knew that Wang Shichong was preparing to rely on his numerical advantage to first surround the trapped camp, then use cavalry to break up the trapped camp's formation, and then encircle and kill them.
Although the trapped camp is all elite, it only has 800 people. Faced with the siege of more than 10,000 people, and it is coordinated by infantry and cavalry, if the formation breaks up, it will only be a matter of time before the entire army is annihilated.
Wang Shichong's plan is not vicious, but it's a pity that he met Gao Shun. Will Gao Shun, who knows Wang Shichong's intentions, still fall into the trap?
It's obviously impossible.
"Cavalry charge!" Wang Shichong shouted.
The Wang family's thousand light cavalry quickly rushed towards the trapped camp, while Gao Shun responded calmly and immediately ordered: "Prepare the hand axe!"
In addition to long swords, large shields and armor, each soldier in the trapped camp is equipped with three pure iron hand axes on his waist, which are used for throwing and are specially used to deal with cavalry.
When a thousand cavalrymen were fifty steps closer to the trapped camp, Gao Shun immediately ordered: "Drop in!"
Eight hundred hand axes were thrown at a thousand cavalry. The distance of fifty steps was not far, and the cavalry's target was large. In order to increase the impact, the formation was very dense.
The accuracy of the throws in the trapped camp was very high. In the first round, either war horses or cavalry were hit, and nearly 300 cavalry were eliminated in one go.
These thousand cavalry are the lifeblood of the Wang family and the capital of the Wang family's rise. Suddenly, they were missing three hundred cavalry. Wang Shichong was horrified when he saw this and immediately shouted: "Disperse the formation, disperse quickly!"
But it was too late, Gao Shun smiled coldly and continued: "Second round, vote."
Another round of 800 hand axes fell in the dense array of enemy troops, and again more than 200 cavalry fell from their horses. In the third round, the enemy troops had dispersed, but the 800 hand axes still took away the lives of more than 100 people.
.
At a distance of fifty steps and at the speed of the cavalry charge, the trapped camp could only perform three rounds of throwing at most.
After three rounds of throwing, only less than 300 of the Wang family's thousand cavalry were left. Moreover, the formation was scattered and the momentum was exhausted. They could no longer threaten the heavy infantry trapped in the camp.
