We are about to win, and the city of Chengdu will soon be captured by us!
Sitting on the war horse and looking at the entire battle situation, Lu Meng felt indescribable joy in his heart.
This city, the capital of Yizhou, is about to be conquered by me! After joining Sun Jian's team, I have never made such a great achievement.
"No, General!" Just when Lu Meng thought that the battle was about to end with his side's victory, a soldier rushed in front of him with a bleak expression.
"Why are you so panicked?" Lu Meng was quite puzzled. The battle situation was completely under his control, so why did this soldier look so panicked?
"Later, our army was attacked in the rear!" The soldier was obviously extremely flustered. He no longer cared about etiquette and shouted to Lu Meng.
"What?" When Lu Meng heard this, he felt incredible at first. How could an army launch an attack on his own rear?
"Yes, it's Cao Jun!" the soldier continued to shout.
Cao Jun? Now Lu Meng was really surprised. How could Cao Jun appear in Chengdu? According to the information he had, Cao Jun was divided into two groups, one in Mianzhu and the other far away from Jiange Pass.
Could it be that Cao's army in Mianzhu City ignored the confrontation with the Yizhou army and came straight over? Lu Meng was very smart and reacted quickly.
Looking to the rear, I found signs of an ongoing battle, and our soldiers were slightly disorganized due to the sudden attack.
"How many are the enemy troops?" Lu Meng asked the soldier.
"I'm afraid there are about three thousand."
Is it about three thousand? Lu Meng felt that there was some trouble. Although this was not a big number, even only half of his own, this army suddenly launched an attack when his own army was sure of victory, and it also attacked its own rear. Once
Once it gains power, the chaos it can cause cannot be compared with numbers.
What's more, the Yizhou Army has not yet been wiped out. There are about a thousand Yizhou soldiers in front of them. If they find out that their own army is fighting with other armies, the Yizhou Army, sensing a glimmer of hope, will definitely fight back to the death.
.In this case, he will undoubtedly be attacked from both sides. Even if he has the upper hand in numbers, his position in the entire battle situation will be extremely disadvantageous.
"Suspend the encirclement and annihilation of the Yizhou Army, leave a thousand people to watch the movements of the Yizhou Army and prevent them from counterattack, and then use all the remaining people to launch an attack on Cao's Army!" Lu Meng thought in his mind and made a decision immediately.
To cope.
The Yizhou army is at the end of its strength. Even if it is a battle between trapped beasts, my one to one military strength should be enough to contain the opponent. The remaining 5,000 people will first annihilate the intruding Cao army with all their strength, and then deal with the 1,000 Yizhou army.
Our side still has a sure chance of victory and is very likely to take control of Chengdu.
After Lu Meng's order was conveyed, five thousand Jiangdong soldiers immediately turned their direction and launched an attack on Cao Jun.
At the forefront of Cao's army were hundreds of surrendered soldiers from Yizhou. Although they were used as cannon fodder at this time, they could only fight as hard as they could because the battlefield they were on at this time was Chengdu City, their hometown.
What's more, Gao Shun also made a promise to them, which gave them a reason to fight desperately.
Although he felt that it was unlikely that these surrendered soldiers would suddenly rebel on the battlefield and switch sides, just in case, Gao Shun specifically promised that all the Yizhou soldiers who surrendered would be sacrificed on this battlefield.
Family members can receive double the compensation, and those who have made meritorious deeds will also receive double the punishment.
In this way, the loyalty of these soldiers when they arrive is at least guaranteed to the greatest extent.
However, the combat effectiveness of these Yizhou soldiers was obviously much worse than that of Jiangdong soldiers, but Gao Shun did not expect them to have any good effect and consume as much of the Jiangdong army as possible. For these Yizhou soldiers
That means the task has been completed.
Even the equipment of these surrendered soldiers from Yizhou was several grades worse than that of the trapped camp and the charging camp, and was even worse than that of the Jiangdong Army in front of them. This shows that these surrendered soldiers were not taken seriously by Gao Shun.
After the battle began, these Yizhou soldiers struggled to raise their spears and stabbed at the Jiangdong Army soldiers in front of them. However, due to the gap in strength and equipment, they were often stabbed to the ground by the enemy before their spears could hit the opponent.
.
Of course, these Yizhou surrendered soldiers would not let others slaughter them. They fought hard and would not retreat easily even if they were seriously injured. The general of Cao Jun made a guarantee that even if they died on the battlefield, their family members would receive double the amount of money.
Compassionate payment made these consigned soldiers feel like they were about to die.
Although these surrendered soldiers had no effect in front of the Jiangdong Army and suffered casualties one after another, because each of these surrendered soldiers fought to the death, the resistance encountered by the Jiangdong Army was not small. These Yizhou soldiers who fought in the front line were almost wiped out.
After cleaning up, Jiangdong's army had lost almost 400 people.
The real battle has just begun now. Jiangdong's army has 4,600 men against Cao's army of less than 2,000. In terms of numbers, Jiangdong's army has an absolute advantage. However, what they have to face next is no longer
Those Yizhou soldiers with inferior combat power are the most elite soldiers in Cao's camp!
