The next second, Dian Wei rushed forward sideways, and the two iron halberds in his palms were like thunder. He struck out boldly and killed two more cavalrymen in an instant. It seemed that in the blink of an eye, only two cavalrymen were left standing.
The opponent reined in his horse and looked panicked. The cavalry, which had lost its momentum, was just a tall infantryman. It posed no threat at all to an army like Dian Wei.
"Walk!"
"Go quickly!"
Just when the opponent was about to rein in his horse and turn around, Dian Wei ignored the integrity of his formation and took a step forward. His whole body shot out like a cannonball.
"Where to go?"
Dian Wei shouted loudly, bent his knees slightly, kicked off the ground, and jumped up. He raised his two iron halberds high above his head and struck the opponent's soldier in the head.
"ah-!"
The enemy soldiers' expressions suddenly changed with fright, and they hurriedly raised their war spears to block Dian Wei's powerful attack. However, at the moment when the spears and halberds intersected, the spear shaft instantly bent in a visible arc, followed by Peng's There was a loud noise, and Dian Wei was chopped in half on the spot.
This isn’t the end yet!
The huge power had no restraint, and like a flood from the sky, it suddenly hit the opponent's head, with another bang, the enemy cavalry stared, bright red juice gushes from their foreheads, and then fell to the sky. On the ground.
"ah-!"
Another cavalryman seemed to be scared out of his wits, his whole body was shaking uncontrollably, his eyes were as wide as bells, and without any hesitation, he clamped down on the horse's belly, wanting to leave here as soon as possible and return to the city.
But how could Dianwei give him this opportunity? The iron halberd in his palm flew out like lightning, and with a pop, it pierced directly into the rear of the enemy cavalry.
"Damn it!"
Ji Yang, the general at the head of the city, was furious. He punched the city wall with a stack of arrows and ordered sternly: "Set the arrows! Shoot the arrows for me! You must shoot this thief, shoot this thief!"
!”
"Shoot—!"
"kill-!"
The sound echoed at the top of Wuguan City.
Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!
Immediately afterwards, a wave of arrow rain covered the sky and hit the sun. The density was so high that even Dian Wei himself couldn't help but be stunned. Could it be that these cavalry were originally their bait?
but......
Dian Wei was not afraid at all and didn't even bother to dodge.
He picked up the iron halberd in his hand and swung it in front of him, protecting his only weak point, his face, and letting a large number of arrows miss and hit his aluminum alloy armor with clanging sounds.
"attack!"
After the arrow rain attack, Dian Wei still stood proudly.
He waved his hand and gave a sonorous order: "Brothers, follow me and kill!"
All the soldiers shouted in unison: "Kill—!"
The next second, the armored infantry behind them escorted the soldiers of the demolition team and continued to move forward.
Although its speed is relatively slow, it is like a sharp dagger, slowly piercing the chest of the enemy soldier.
On top of Wuguan City, Ji Yang's eyes almost exploded. He couldn't believe his eyes. The cavalry could not break through the opponent's formation, and the missed arrows could not hurt the opponent at all.
even......
Even the new city wall that they are proud of may face collapse at this moment. Once the city gate is broken and the other party breaks in, there will be a unilateral massacre.
"Damn it!"
Ji Yang gritted his teeth and thought hard about countermeasures.
But for a long time, there was still no way to deal with it.
As a last resort, he could only call his lieutenant and said coldly: "If the Wuguan gate is breached, we will follow the previous method and burn Wuguan to catch him by surprise, then quickly leave this place and move towards Chang'an."
The lieutenant leaned forward and said, "No."
Immediately.
Turn around and leave the city.
Ji Yang was unwilling to give in and still gave a sonorous order: "Fire the arrows and hit these guys hard. Don't worry about the arrows missing. Shoot all the arrows in your hands!"
"Set me an arrow!
!”
Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!
A wave of arrows suddenly hit. Although there was no damage at all, a second wave of arrows followed, followed by a third wave, a fourth wave, a fifth wave...
Although there was no blood spatter from beginning to end, due to the need to protect the demolition team, the armored infantry did not increase their speed and were always walking slowly.
Liu Bian, who was outside the city, was not anxious at all, and was even vaguely excited. He liked this feeling of "not being able to get through it yet", it was like cutting flesh with a dull knife, it was cruel.
At the same time, netizens in the live broadcast room were equally excited:
"Haha! The enemy general is anxious, and the rhythm of breaking the jar is breaking."
"The cavalry can't do it, and the arrows are harmless. This battle is useless."
"Looking at the other person's appearance, I couldn't be happier."
"It made me laugh so hard, another emoticon."
"..."
Just as netizens in the live broadcast room were teasing the enemy generals, the voice of the Military Advisor Alliance also sounded: "Master Bian, they are obviously stalling for time and may be preparing to leave."
"oh?"
Liu Bian frowned and thought to himself: "Does this mean they might have to give up Wuguan? No, this is the gateway to Chang'an, how could they give up so easily?"
"The intelligence says that Ji Yang has thousands of people in Wuguan, and they are all elite soldiers. If he leaves like this, Yuan Wei can't take off his skin?"
The Military Advisor Alliance continued: "This is the strange thing. Wuguan is obviously the easiest place to defend on this road. Even if we blow up the city gate, we can still engage in street fighting and fight inside the pass."
"If we just abandon the pass and return to Chang'an, then we will expose Chang'an to us. This is almost the same as betraying our country and surrendering to the enemy."
"When things go wrong, there must be a monster!"
The Military Advisor Alliance said very solemnly: "Experts in the Military Advisor Alliance suggest that we should be more careful. The other side's deputy general must be preparing something when he leaves the city. There is very likely to be an ambush in the city."
Liu Bian immediately regained his composure, thinking carefully about the words of the Military Advisor Alliance, and at the same time turned to glance at Guo Jia aside: "Fengxiao, how do you feel about this battle?"
Guo Jia frowned, obviously suspicious: "Your Majesty is really aware of everything. I guess you also noticed the scene of the deputy general leaving the city, right?"
"That's right."
Liu Bian nodded affirmatively: "There is obviously something wrong with Ji Yang's deputy general leaving at this time. I suspect there will be an ambush in Wuguan, but we don't know it yet."
Guo Jia never accompanied His Majesty the Emperor in his crusade against Dong Zhuo. Although there were indeed rumors within the imperial court that His Majesty the Emperor was proficient in the art of war and strategy, the credibility is doubtful.
But today!
Right now!
Guo Jia was certain and affirmative. His Majesty the Emperor is thoughtful and often able to hit the nail on the head. He has an almost keen insight into dangers, which is really admirable:
"I also have this doubt."
Guo Jia nodded affirmatively and stared at Wuguan: "In the battle of Hedong, we have exposed Fuhuo Thunder. Zhang Liao entered the Taiyuan Basin along the Fen River, which allowed the opponent to obtain a lot of intelligence."
"They will definitely make corresponding preparations for the Ambush Fire Thunder. The previous cavalry charge in an attempt to kill the demolition team is the best proof, but this is just one of the methods."
"if......"
Guo Jia took a deep breath and pondered for a long time: "If I were Ji Yang, withdrawing my troops in advance when I know I can't defeat him is indeed the best way to preserve my strength."
"But given the current situation, once defeated at Wuguan, it will most likely affect Chang'an. The possibility of them abandoning Wuguan like this is not too great."
"In this case..."
Guo Jia turned to look at His Majesty the Emperor: "The other side is most likely pretending to retreat, and then lured us into the encirclement, and then dealt a fatal blow."
Encirclement?
The entire Wuguan Road is relatively rugged and difficult to navigate.
Once inside, I'm afraid there is no place for an ambush.
Then the best place for an ambush is naturally within the city gate. After all, this place can accommodate thousands of people at the same time. Not only is the space sufficient, but it is also conducive to an ambush.
The most important thing is that this is inside Wuguan. Even the pawn of the school affairs office, Jian Feng, cannot easily find out the internal information. It is relatively difficult to judge based on clues.
Liu Bian pondered for a long time and then ordered: "Let's do this. Even if we open the city gate, we should not send a large army to rush and fight. We should first send a small force to conduct a reconnaissance attack to see if the opponent has an ambush."
Guo Jia nodded: "That's very good, but who should I send to test it?"
Without thinking, Liu Bian blurted out: "Dian Wei is enough. The soldiers and horses under his command are all elite. Even if they encounter an ambush, they will still be able to fight. The rest of the soldiers will obey the command and follow slowly."
“Very good.”
Guo Jia marveled at His Majesty the Emperor's reaction speed and bowed his head respectfully: "I will make arrangements here."
Liu Bien grunted and waved his hand: "Go ahead."
Guo Jia responded: "No."
now.
Dian Wei's soldiers and horses braved the rain of arrows and gradually reached the entrance of the city gate.
The soldiers of the demolition team hurriedly stepped forward and installed the fire and thunder packs on both sides of the city gate hole. They immediately took out the fire breakers, lit the fuses, escaped from the city wall hole as quickly as possible, and attached them to both sides of the city wall, using their shields.
Body protection.
Boom!
Not long after, there was a loud noise from the Wuguan City Gate.
Then, gunpowder smoke rose up, and two huge city gates collapsed to the ground. Cracks spread from both sides of the city gate opening to the surroundings at a speed visible to the naked eye, like a chrysanthemum blooming.
"Chop suey!"
"Isn't this movement too scary?"
On the top of the city, Ji Yang's body swayed with the city wall. He suddenly broke out in a cold sweat and his eyes almost popped out of his head. He did not dare to hesitate at all and gave a sonorous order:
"retreat!"
"Retreat quickly!"
Wuyangyang's soldiers and horses descended from the city one after another and slowly retreated towards the city gate.
Dian Wei did not hesitate and waved his hands: "Brothers, charge with me, kill the bandits and capture Wuguan!"
The morale of the soldiers soared, and they shouted sternly: "Kill—!"
More than a hundred soldiers rushed into Wuguan, chasing Ji Yang and others, and started a fierce pursuit. However, behind them, there were no cavalry from the imperial court chasing them, and there were no extra soldiers and horses rushing in.
Seeing this scene, Ji Yang's heart almost broke!
He couldn't believe it.
Could it be that His Majesty the Emperor of Nanyang wanted to capture all Wuguan with just such a few people?
Damn it!
Isn't this too bullying?
If we really introduce it into the established encirclement, wouldn't it be a slap in the face and a waste of all the hard work we have put in for a long time?
no!
Absolutely not!
Ji Yang felt a surge of hatred in his heart, and immediately shouted loudly: "Stop, stop everyone! There are nearly a thousand of us, and we are actually being chased by these hundreds of people!"
"Fuck!"
A mouthful of Chinese quintessence burst out.
Ji Yang shouted at the top of his lungs: "If we can't kill more than a hundred people today, no one will be allowed to leave. Brothers, come to me and destroy these bastards!"
All the soldiers also felt a fire in their hearts. They immediately raised their weapons and rushed towards Dian Wei and others like a flood. The howling and killing sounds filled the entire city gate.
Clang! Clang! Clang!
The golden sound exploded, and the sparks burst out.
Dian Wei's personal guards are all made of aluminum alloy battle armor. The size of the Huanshou sword in his hand is also unusual, it is six feet seven inches, and the blade is more than five feet. It is eye-catching and you can tell it is fine steel at a glance.
Build.
This is an improved Huanshou sword that has been improved by experts and is more conducive to assassination and slashing. It is the standard equipment for melee infantry. Although it is slightly smaller than a spear in size, it is longer than the ordinary Huanshou sword. In close combat, it is more powerful.
Advantages.
Facing the roaring enemy troops, Dian Wei and others were not afraid at all. Instead, they were slightly excited. At the moment when the two sides collided, the Huanshou Swordsman took action one after another, like fireworks in full bloom, killing the enemies in front of the formation one after another.
Stabbed down.
Ji Yang stared in shock.
He couldn't believe it.
Even if it was a hand-to-hand fight, he had an absolute advantage in numbers and still couldn't hurt the opponent at all. In the blink of an eye, our soldiers fell like wheat, but not even a single soldier of the opponent was killed.
This is not only a gap in equipment, but also includes awareness in training. Ji Yang can clearly feel that every soldier on the other side is a master who is proficient in assassination.
Their attacks are extremely straightforward, without the slightest sloppiness. They strike with a killer move, going straight to the vital point and directly killing you. They are like warriors returning from the Nine Netherworld, and their combat effectiveness is not at the same level.
At the same time, the soldiers and horses led by Liu Bian also entered the city gate, but their steps were very slow, as if they were walking in leisurely from the outside step by step.
"There is indeed an ambush."
Liu Bian saw through Ji Yang's conspiracy at a glance.
The opponent must have an ambush in the rear, but they were unwilling to kill Dian Wei's small force, so before entering the final encirclement, they blocked Dian Wei and waited for the troops in the rear.
pity......
In Liu Bian's eyes, this kind of operation is really a bit childish: "Fengxiao, is there a picture of Wuguan?"
Guo Jia took out a folded map from the bag under the saddle and handed it over: "Yes! If I remember correctly, going to the right from now on is the camp of the soldiers in Wuguan."
Liu Bian unfolded the map to browse, and sure enough, according to the map's indication, there was a camp sunken inward due to the north. If the opponent ambushed here, they could effectively use the mountains nearby.
"This Ji Yang is quite capable."
At this moment, the voice of the Military Advisor Alliance sounded: "The opponent can use the terrain inside the city gate to form an effective ambush formation, which is enough to prove that he is a general."
"And in the current literature, I have never heard of this figure at all, which is enough to prove that he is a general who has been buried in history. But it is a pity that his conspiracy has been discovered."
Liu Bian stared at the map and thought to himself: "He is indeed a talented general, but Guo Jia also saw through it, which proves that his firepower is still not enough. Even if he is buried, it is not too unfair."
"but......"
Liu Bian frowned and stared at the map carefully: "Since Ji Yang can't be defeated, what's the use of setting up an ambush?"
The Military Advisor Alliance said casually: "You should remember the vine armor soldiers in the Romance of the Three Kingdoms, right?"
Liu Bian nodded: "Of course."
The Military Advisor Alliance said softly: "According to expert speculation, it is most likely to be a fire attack."
hiss-!
Liu Bian was shocked and couldn't help but gasped: "Fire attack?"
The Alliance of Military Advisors said extremely calmly: "According to the predictions of the intelligent analysis software, the probability of winning with fire attack has reached 87.6%, while the probability of winning with normal stone beating and rolling logs is only 32.5%."
Fire and water are merciless!
No matter how advanced your armor is, no matter how sharp your weapons are, no matter how awesome your explosives are, you will always be passively beaten when faced with the opponent's fire attacks and water skills tactics.
Therefore, technology can indeed improve the combat effectiveness of the army, but it is by no means a guarantee of victory. No matter how awesome the technology is, it is still used by people. In the final analysis, war is still a struggle between people.
Liu Bian had to admit that Ji Yang had indeed put in a lot of effort in order to win. It was not an exaggeration to call him a general, but unfortunately, he was Yuan Kai's man after all.
"His Majesty."
At this moment, guard Zhu Tong came from the rear, leaned over and cupped his hands and said: "The young genius Zhuge Liang wants to see you for something."
Although the juvenile genius class is relatively young, Liu Bian likes to let them participate in this kind of practical opportunity, which is good for their own development.
but......
However, Liu Bian did not bring all of them, but only selected five of them to bring them as internships as welfare. Considering the danger of marching, they were temporarily in the central army and not in the front.
Never thought about it.
This little guy, Zhuge Liang, actually wants to see you for something.
Liu Bian smiled indifferently and said softly: "Ask him what he wants. If it's not important, we can wait until Wuguan is captured."
Zhu Tong nodded: "This...Zhuge Liang said it was extremely urgent."
"This kid..."
Liu Bian glanced at Guo Jia and said with a smile: "Okay, let him come over. I want to listen to what he will say."
Guo Jia also smiled: "I heard that Zhuge Liang is very good at studying. Many of his courses are above the excellent level. Zheng Xuan, Sima Hui and others like him very much."
Liu Bidan smiled: "I also like him very much. If this child is well cultivated, his future abilities may be as good as Fengxiao's. After he graduates, how about he do an internship with you?"
"no problem."
Guo Jia nodded without hesitation: "It is my pride to be able to cultivate talents for the imperial court."
Liu Bian was very satisfied with Guo Jia's answer: "There are talented people from generation to generation, but I don't hope that one day I will sigh with emotion like, 'I have to defend the four directions with a strong soldier.'"
"Instead of looking for people, it is better to cultivate talents yourself. This is the significance of my popularization of education, so that the quality of all the people of the Han Dynasty can be improved. Only in this way can a steady stream of talents emerge and the country of Han Dynasty can be preserved."
Guo Jia nodded: "Your Majesty is wise."
At this moment, little Zhuge hurried over, leaned over and cupped his hands and said: "Your Majesty."
Liu Bian waved his hand to indicate that he was flat: "Zhuge, what do you have to say?"
Little Zhuge said very solemnly: "I think your majesty must have realized that there is an ambush in the city gate. Liang smelled the faint smell of kerosene and estimated that there would be an attack with fire from behind, so he came to remind your majesty to be careful."
"oh?"
Liu Bian was surprised: "Can you smell the kerosene?"
Zhuge Liang nodded with absolute certainty: "That's right! During this period, Liang often studied the properties of flame combustion with classmate A Yi, so he was often exposed to kerosene and was familiar with the smell."
Hearing this voice, all the friends in the live broadcast room were shocked:
"Damn it! Zhuge Liang has a dog's nose and smells the smell of kerosene."
"This time it confirms the speculation of the expert Fire Attack. We must not break in."
"As long as we don't enter their camp, we will probably piss Ji Yang to death!"
"Why don't we go in and just get the fire and light it in advance? Wouldn't it be better?"
"Where's the grenade? Is it just a decoration? Blow it up to pieces."
"Haha, the correct answer is upstairs, it's great to look at it!"
"..."
Listening to the comments from netizens in the live broadcast room, Liu Bian felt equally evil in his heart.
He looked at Zhuge with bright eyes and said softly: "As a filial piety, I will mark my merits for Zhuge. When I return, I will be rewarded heavily."
Guo Jia nodded and said loudly: "Your Majesty, don't worry, just leave it to me."
Zhuge Liang leaned forward and raised his hands: "Thank you, Your Majesty."
Liu Bian waved his hand to signal him to go back, and then turned his attention to the front. Thousands of soldiers and horses were fighting with Dian Wei's team, but they were unable to do anything. Without Liu Bian's order, no one in the army dared to charge.
Everyone just watched helplessly as Ji Yang's troops and horses were swallowed up little by little by Dian Wei's squad of a hundred men. Although they were anxious in their hearts, they never came to help.
now.
Not only were his own soldiers anxious, but Ji Yang was even more anxious.
He couldn't believe it.
More than a thousand soldiers stood in front of King Hongnong, but the king was able to hold back and rushed forward to kill him without giving orders.
Obviously, King Hongnong had realized that there was an ambush, so he deliberately did not fall for it and treated himself like a monkey.
Ji Yang was so angry that his eyes almost popped out. Since he couldn't beat him, he left.
Without any hesitation.
Ji Yang shouted at the top of his lungs: "Brothers, retreat quickly! Follow me!"
Dian Wei was addicted to killing, so he made a move: "Brothers, chase after me and kill him until no one is left!"
All the soldiers shouted in unison: "Kill—!"
Dian Wei led more than a hundred elite troops to chase after Ji Yang's soldiers and horses, and launched a fierce attack without mercy.
But Liu Bian just waved his hand, signaling for the team to follow slowly, without any intention of ordering a charge.
Turned a corner.
really!
The huge camp was displayed in front of Liu Bian.
Ji Yang's troops rushed in, but Liu Bian ordered: "As a filial piety, let Dian Wei come back."
Guo Jia nodded: "No."
Immediately.
The messenger flew out on horseback, shouting at the top of his lungs:
"Your Majesty has an order, Commander Dian, return quickly!"
"Your Majesty has an order..."
"..."
Hearing the sound, Ji Yang turned around and looked around. He saw Dian Wei's soldiers and horses rushing to the front of the camp, but they stopped chasing him. His heart was filled with thousands of horses galloping, and ten thousand MMP sentences were chewed in his heart!
"General, what should we do?"
"What should I do? Fuck! If you ask me, who should I ask!"
