The first battalion, which was lining up on the spot, was originally in a slight confusion. Then someone shouted "It's the enemy's cavalry" or something, and panic suddenly fell into everyone's heart like a contagion.
The sound of hooves in the distance became faster and faster, but within a short time, it became much closer.
"Line up, line up, line up!"
The officers of the Yuan Army shouted anxiously, waving their whips and sabers, and vigorously urged the soldiers in the first line to line up. However, the sound of horse hooves in the distance was like a reminder, getting closer and closer.
On weekdays, this miscellaneous army is considered well-trained, but after all, it has not really fought many tough battles. This situation suddenly occurred in a few days, and some people even spread the word in the military camp that they were going to encounter the three soldiers who captured Yecheng.
Cao's army in Yanzhou is the strongest and largest among the rebels. No matter how much the officers and generals urge them, they are only asked to have 5,000 men to stop the enemy's 100,000 lions. They all are beating drums in their hearts, can we hold on?
?
Under the influence of this kind of psychology, I have practiced the formations that I have already mastered countless times on weekdays, but now I can't form them anymore.
Seeing the enemy cavalry galloping in the distance, the nearest vanguard was less than a stone's throw away from the formation. At this moment, there was no time to wait for the troops to form their formation. The person commanding the first formation was Chunyu Qiong's favorite general.
He felt a sudden change in his heart, snatched the horn from the officer next to him, blew it twice, and then shouted to the crowd: "Raise the bow, raise the bow, shoot flat, shoot flat!"
Don't tell me, the general's order had some effect, and one-third of the archers immediately grabbed their bows and arrows.
"It's too late!"
Chun Yuqiong, who was leading the army, was quite sensible. Although he was very angry, he still imagined that his soldiers could fire the first round of arrows.
"Whoosh..."
There was a sound of breaking through the air, but what Chunyu Qiong was waiting for was not his own arrow. The enemy's arrows were fired first from horseback.
After the first 300 archers fired a volley, a rain of arrows suddenly fell on the heads of the team down the slope. In the darkness where the torches were shining, there were shouts of "Arrow attack!"
"Damn! Everyone disperse!!"
"Spread out!"
Le Jin was confused, and when he rushed in, he saw that the enemy army had forgotten to put out the torches. Didn't this make it too easy for Le Jin's cavalry to find their target?
He ordered the three hundred cavalrymen who followed him without hesitation to take down the bows and arrows hanging from the horses' bellies. After a round of rapid fire, Le Jin shouted: "Just shoot at the light of the fire!"
The sound of piercing the air started again, and more arrows fell on the heads of Yuan Jun's first formation.
"Quickly put out the torch..."
After the first round of arrows, someone in Yuan's army realized their carelessness and shouted urgently to put out the torches. It turned out that as soon as it got dark today, Chunyu Qiong ordered the five thousand defenders to divide into three formations.
This area is a temporary training exercise
The battle formation. In order to clearly see the formation of the soldiers, the generals under his command set up torches everywhere for lighting purposes. Unexpectedly, this sudden attack caused people to panic, and the commanding general also forgot
He gave the order to extinguish the torches.
This cheap Yue Jin's cavalry did not need to find a target, but fired at random in two rounds. The effect was very good immediately. It cannot be said that the arrows hit the target, at least they defeated the enemy who had just looked decent.
Formation, a flurry of excitement.
Seeing that the distance between the two sides was getting closer, Le Jin no longer had to hide his traces in this battle, so he suddenly shouted: "Abandon your bow, follow me...charge!"
After Le Jin made a sharp whistle, he took the lead, hoofs flying, leaped over a section of the fence that had collapsed, and galloped towards the faint outline of the horse thieves in the dark, with all the people behind him.
The cavalry immediately speeded up and galloped forward. However, the distance of an arrow was almost just a blink of an eye. In the wilderness, two groups of people collided head-on. It was dark.
The sound of ping-ping-pong-pong collision was heard, and the sound of slashing and slashing was heard continuously. A dazzling metallic light suddenly arose at the intersection of the front ends. The thunderous sound of horse hooves suppressed all the screams and screams.
As we went down, we could only hear the thrilling muffled sounds. When the cavalry running at the front collided with the enemy formation in the front row, they kept whistling and screaming from this moment on.
Le Jin was riding a horse, and when he hit the first shield, he suddenly threw out a spear in his hand with a sharp shout, like lightning.
A guy who looked like an officer was angrily yelling at something. Suddenly, he felt a chill in his chest, and then his body flew back. He looked down at his chest dully in the air, and saw that a spear had penetrated his body.
Finally, his whole body was nailed to the ground.
Le Jin continued the momentum of the first wave and the spears thrown, and the prancing horse rushed several steps toward the enemy formation. The enemy formations in the front row were still neatly organized, but as more and more spears penetrated the formation, the number of spears pierced into the formation was getting higher and higher.
In the middle, it became more and more chaotic, and at the back, it was just a mess.
This situation fell into Le Jin's eyes, and Le Jin immediately laughed loudly, waved the steel spear, and shouted: "Fight in!"
The cavalry behind Le Jin followed Le Jin hard and instantly ran into Yuan Jun's queue. In this wave of attacks, countless cavalry also fell off their horses. However, the cavalry queue was still so dense, and the leading queue still remained intact.
Even if their companions fell off their horses, these tough cavalrymen would not even look at them. They would just lean on their horses tightly, hold the guns and spears in their hands, and run forward with red eyes.
Yuan's army's first phalanx, with a thousand soldiers, placed in front of the slope, almost collapsed unstoppably after the first charge of Cao's cavalry.
When the two armies first collided, the Yuan Army soldiers in the front row barely maintained a complete formation and barely blocked the charge of Cao Army's cavalry. However, this was just the only piece of the torrent that could withstand for a while.
The stones are nothing more than a little splash
They were just squirrels, but then the momentum of Cao Jun's cavalry charging forward immediately cut open Yuan Jun's loose formation. It was like a steel knife cutting into soft tofu, and the momentum was as straight as breaking bamboo. Yuan Jun's team was very
It's about to collapse.
In the darkness, the soldiers of the Yuan Army who had been cut off from the defense line were noisy. Suddenly, they saw a second wave of enemies rushing in front of them. They were already in a panic after being severely damaged by the previous wave of engagement. Now they were even more confused.
Became a ball.
In the dark night, I heard groups of people rushing into my team. At this time, no one in the team could see the situation clearly, and they heard countless screams. Such a scene, let alone a long time.
This miscellaneous army in the Shuzhan Formation, even if it is a real regular army, has only one way to be defeated.
The first wave of Yuan Jun soldiers roared crazily, and some simply fled for their lives. Some couldn't see the enemy clearly in the dark. Amidst the shouts of killing all around, they could only roar and kill indiscriminately with weapons. Chapter 1
The team soon completely collapsed, and Yuan Jun, who was in charge of the first line of defense, fled in all directions.
Le Jin led 2,000 cavalry divided into two teams, and easily overran the enemy's team in the first round.
"pretty!"
"It seems that the enemy is not very strong!"
After fighting his way out of the enemy formation, Le Jin looked back at the people behind him. He saw that the loss was not big, less than a hundred people. Le Jin was a little proud!
"The first team continues to clear the way with me. There must be a second line of defense less than a hundred meters below. Once the first team encounters a setback from the enemy, the two sides will separate and attack in a roundabout way. The second team will be responsible for the second wave of impact. Got it?
?”
"Got it!" The voice was so loud and high-pitched that the previous nervousness of Cao Jun's cavalry following Le Jin was gone. Now they are full of confidence. The enemy looks very weak. Some people even think that they don't need the infantry behind them.
, you can complete the task of clearing the road alone.
But at this moment, everyone ignored the biggest weakness in their plan. Their backup troops had not yet arrived. It may also be said that they were in a state of severe disconnection between the front and rear teams. At this moment, even Le Jin had forgotten about that team.
The Karasuma Army should have arrived.
But he didn't know that just when he rushed out of the woods and attacked Chunyu Qiong's first line of defense, a messenger sent by Zhao Yun quickly arrived. He brought the news of the disappearance of Karasuma Army, and
Zhao Yun's judgment. Zhao Yun thinks that the Karasuma man has escaped.
There is no need for Zhao Yun to speculate, the Karasuma people really slipped away and slipped out of the war zone. The leader of the Karasuma Army, the guy named "Sir", after learning that they were deceived by Cao Zhi, assisted him in coming to Jizhou, but not to eliminate them.
The enemy of Yuan Shao, the Heishan Army, who was the herdsman of Jizhou, betrayed Yuan Shao and captured Yecheng, his state capital. This made the people of Wuwan panic.
They were in constant panic. In their opinion, Yuan Shao was undoubtedly the strongest tycoon in the Central Plains. However, they were careless and were on the wrong team. They were deceived by Cao Zhi into coming to Jizhou to help him rebel. They were scared and should have followed him.
Behind Le Jin, who was cooperating with his attack to the west, the Karasuma people suddenly appeared as defenders. They changed their route midway and escaped!
When Zhao Yun led a large group of people to follow behind, he sent out several waves of scouts in succession, but they could not contact the Wuwan people who should be in front of them. Ten miles, twenty miles, thirty miles, and even Zhao Yun sent out only one of his men.
Some scouts and scouts traveled fifty miles, but there was no trace of the Wuwan people. Zhao Yun was anxious and thought that the Wuwan people had been ambushed. Later, Zhao Yun learned that the Wuwan people had changed their route and slipped into the Taihang Mountains.
"Master" Karasuma knew very well that he could not cross the Taihang Mountains and escape back to Yanmen Pass with 3,000 men and 1,000 sets of armors given to them by Cao Zhigang, but they just wanted to hide somewhere for a while and then wait for Cao's army to pass.
, they were heading out of the mountains to find their way back to Yanmen.
"Sir" Karasuma even wrote a letter of begging for surrender to the Yuan army stationed on the Western Front to express their unintentional mistakes and hope that Yuan Shao would forgive them regardless of the villain's faults.
