The Western Wei Dynasty deployed nearly 50,000 troops on the back road, of which 20,000 were stationed on the upper reaches of Sushui River. The Shaozhou Army led by Yang Guo had nearly 10,000 soldiers and stayed in Chexicheng to the north of Guzhong Road. As for the two troops led by Yang Zhong
The Wanshi Brigade will first advance to occupy Mount Li on the west side of Qinshui River.
Although the areas where the three troops are deployed are relatively close, their respective tasks are slightly different. The troops stationed at Sushui are naturally to protect the safety of waterways and supply lines, while Yang Jue is mainly responsible for guarding against incoming enemies from the Northern Qi. As for Yang Zhong's troops,
The troops were the main force responsible for attacking Jianzhou.
Yang Zhong has not officially marched towards Jianzhou yet. When he received the news from Yang Guo's messenger and learned that the enemy army had indeed marched here to attack and had already established a foothold in Lengkou Valley, he did not dare to neglect it.
Even if he led two thousand elite soldiers and came straight to the place where Yang Guo blocked the enemy's army.
The distance between the two places was not too far. It only took Yang Zhong and his party more than an hour to arrive at the camp outside Lengkou Valley. After hearing the news, Yang Jue hurriedly greeted him. When he saw Yang Zhong, he said with some embarrassment:
"I don't want to let the thieves seize power today... There are about three to four thousand thieves in the mountain valley. They are all brave and fierce. They are led by Hulu Jin's son Hulu Mingyue. The thieves are fighting for their lives to attack. Our army's formation
It was not strong enough and was attacked by thieves, so we had no choice but to retreat here and fight again as a whole."
Although he was waiting for work and still had superior strength, he retreated under the fierce enemy offensive. Naturally, Yang Ge felt quite ashamed.
After hearing this, Yang Zhong did not criticize Yang Guo too much, but went straight to the front line of the battle between the two sides. He stood in his own battle formation and looked inward for a while, carefully taking a look at the distribution of the enemy troops in the mountain valley.
When he heard the neighing of a large number of war horses in the mountains, Yang Zhong frowned slightly, slowly retreated to the camp, and said to Yang Jue and others: "Since the thieves are here, they have their own way to fight dangerously."
The determination to live without fear of fighting to the death is not limited to being trapped in the valley and nuisance me. I am currently building up my strength, and I will definitely break out in the near future. Once I get out of here, I will be in great harm, and I need to kill here as soon as possible!"
After hearing this, Yang Jue's face became more and more ugly. He took a deep breath first, and then said: "It is the general's fault that he failed to keep the thieves away from the mountains and fields. I will personally supervise Erlang to fight to the death.
We must annihilate all the enemies here!"
"The soldiers here are tired after fighting for a long time. Let's retire for the time being. Since I have led my troops here, I can't just watch and attack first. Please Yang Shaozhou distribute armor soldiers to the left mountain pass to prevent the thieves from escaping and fleeing.
disaster."
After watching the battle for a period of time, Yang Zhong has already seen that Yang Jue's troops are slightly inferior to his opponents in terms of equipment, skills and fighting spirit. After all, Yang Jue's troops directly belong to the local garrison state army, and they can obtain
Bafu’s resource investment is also relatively limited.
In other combat environments, perhaps some means could be used to offset these differences. However, in this long and narrow battlefield where soldiers are in close contact, the only thing that matters is the hard quality of their respective soldiers. It is inevitable that the Shaozhou Army will have some problems.
It pales in comparison.
Hearing what Yang Zhong said, Yang Guo looked ashamed again: "Everything here is within the bounds of our responsibilities. I am very grateful to Mr. Anlu for coming here to plunder the formation, but I really don't dare..."
"We are all obeying orders from above and serving the country. There is no need to divide each other!"
Without waiting for Yang Guo to finish speaking, Yang Zhong waved his hand and said, and immediately returned to the camp. He ordered the soldiers to remove the armor, swords and other weapons from the horses, and then put on armor and armed themselves in the camp.
Not long after, two hundred heavily armored soldiers, including Yang Zhong, were fully equipped. The other sergeants were also armed in light armor or semi-armor. Then, under the command of Yang Zhong, they took up positions outside the mountains and valleys to defeat the dangerous fortresses.
place.
After Yang Guo saw this, he quickly arranged for his own soldiers to cooperate with the defense parties and set up a wide encirclement outside the mountain valley.
After these things were prepared, Yang Zhong held a sword and led a group of heavily armored soldiers towards the entrance of the mountain valley with a steady pace. The soldiers of the Qi army in the mountain valley also noticed this movement of the Wei army.
Immediately report the situation to Yanaka and ask for countermeasures.
At this time, Hu Luguang also woke up. Although he only experienced a short period of sleep, his spirit had recovered and his injuries had been properly treated. Although the pain was unbearable, fortunately it did not have much impact on his actions.
Impact.
Knowing that the enemy had invested heavy armor to attack, Hu Luguang took a short look with the support of his general, and his mood became a little solemn and nervous. There was no wood or stone that could be moved flexibly in this mountain valley, so it was difficult to move it.
A line of defense was built in a short period of time.
At present, the only way to temporarily avoid the enemy's sharp edge and consume the opponent's manpower is to lead the war horses in the valley forward to block the entrance of the valley. Although this will inevitably cause heavy casualties to the war horses, at least it can avoid direct contact with the enemy.
Head-on collision.
So Hu Luguang drove hundreds of horses forward to occupy the valley space, and at the same time he had people digging ravines behind the horses in an attempt to create a certain obstacle to the enemy.
"Take me as a target and go straight into the valley!"
Yang Zhong did not order his troops to line up in a single line and completely block the valley passage. Instead, with himself as the leader, he entered the valley in a column of three people.
The enemy troops originally guarding the entrance of the valley have retreated inward, and the first to bear the burden are the crowded and restless horses. These war horses themselves are already frightened and the fatigue caused by crossing the mountains has not been completely eliminated. At this time, they are driven into the valley.
Ahead, things suddenly became even more difficult to control, noisily pouring out of the valley.
"die!"
Yang Zhong shouted loudly, and slashed the war horse in front of him with the sword in his hand. The blade fell straight from the horse's neck. The horse fell directly to death on the spot. The horses beside him were frightened by this and immediately neighed and fled to the left and right.
I dare not go straight to the truth anymore.
Although the war horses are quite familiar with human nature, they are not as good as human cognition after all. They still follow the biological instinct of seeking advantages and avoiding disadvantages, following the sides of the heavily armored team and galloping out of the valley.
Most of this team could not escape the fate of being killed on the spot. Although it had a certain impact on the advancement speed of Yang Zhong and his group of heavily armored soldiers, it was not to the extent that it was difficult for the blocked team to advance.
Soon hundreds of war horses galloped past. At this time, the Qi army soldiers in the valley had already lined up at Linjian, hoping to take advantage of the several-foot terrain difference between the valleys to block the enemy.
In the previous battle, Hu Luguang's overdraft was too great. Although his energy had recovered slightly now, he could no longer wear armor and go into battle, so he could only dispatch the soldiers in the rear and supervise the battle with swords in hand.
Soon the Wei army's heavy armor advanced to the front of the enemy's formation. Facing the oncoming enemy sabers, Yang Zhong and his left and right soldiers slashed with their sabers. Several enemy blades were split open directly, and even the sharp blades fell on him.
, it just made a clanging sound on the armor, but did not cause any damage.
On the contrary, when the fallen sword was slashed upwards, several enemy soldiers were unable to avoid it, and their leg bones below the knees were directly cut and broken, and they fell to the ground screaming.
"Anyone who stands in my way will die!"
Because the enemy formations in front were too dense and the terrain was higher, Yang Zhong could not climb up for a while, so he stood under the giant rock and continued to slash and kill with his sword against the enemy's arrows.
Soon the huge rock was covered with thick plasma and became slippery. The corpses of the Qi army soldiers who were killed above also continued to slide down from the top of the rock, until they piled up into a slope of flesh and blood at the bottom of the rock.
Yang Zhong and others stepped on the enemy's corpse and climbed up the rock. As soon as they gained a stable footing, two long poles hit him in the chest from the opposite side. Yang Zhong was not afraid of this. He half-turned his upper body and used his back to bear it.
He caught the blow from a long stick, took the blow, twisted his waist, turned his arm, and swung the saber in his hand. The blade was slightly blocked, and immediately cut the two enemy generals in front of him in half on the spot!
"The Zhuguo is mighty!"
When the soldiers who climbed up the mountain behind saw Yang Zhong's bravery, they all cheered loudly, and Yang Zhong also gave a rare laugh. He pointed his sword forward and shouted: "The thief is ahead, don't stop with the sword! Kill!"
The heavy armored infantry in the mountains and fields where it is not easy to move and change formations. Apart from being slightly restricted in their movements, they are an almost incomprehensible force. Especially under the leadership of Yang Zhong, the leading general in North Town.
The combat effectiveness of the elite soldiers at this time is no less than that of the Heyang elite soldiers carefully selected by Hu Luguang.
Yang Zhong's fighting style is stable and solid. Even if he uses force to destroy people, it gives people an irresistible sense of oppression. If Hu Luguang led his team to capture the mountain valley before, it was all due to the bravery of the soldiers when they met on a narrow road.
If they fought bravely to the death, then the heavily armored soldiers of the Western Wei Dynasty led by Yang Zhong at this time were like emotionless killing machines.
Entering the valley from the mouth of the valley, rushing into the enemy's formation from the horse group, the heavily armored sergeants following Yang Zhong on the left and right sides had taken several turns, but Yang Zhong still advanced with a steady pace and a gentle rhythm, swinging his sword to kill the enemy.
"No more retreat, no..."
Seeing that the mountain valley that he had risked his life to capture was taken back by the enemy's advance, Hu Luguang felt burned inside and out. He was extremely anxious. Even the wounds that had been bandaged and treated before were oozing blood again.
.His current condition is no longer suitable for fighting again, so he can only shout over and over again to order the soldiers to hold the battle line.
However, the manpower was limited after all. At this time, Yang Zhong had already led his team into most of the mountain valley, and was less than ten feet away from the rear formation where Hu Luguang was. He and the team behind him were like iron drills pierced deep into the cheese.
, the forward speed is so steady that it makes people despair.
When those Qi army officers and soldiers who had been bravely rushing to kill the Shaozhou army before faced such an enemy, they couldn't help but feel frightened and chilled in their hearts. They no longer dared to stand directly in front of the enemy army and evaded to both sides.
After advancing a few meters further, Yang Zhong stood still and shook the plasma on his sword. Then he raised his hand and pointed at Hu Luguang, who was not far away, and shouted in a deep voice: "Hulugu, kid, don't leave!"
"Dog thief..."
When Hu Luguang saw this scene, his eyes were split open, and he wanted to go forward and fight Yang Zhong for life and death. However, not to mention that his current physical condition did not allow it, and the soldiers on his left and right couldn't help but support him.
He stepped back and said: "The thieves are fierce, please stay away from the sharp edge for now, keep this useful body, and fight again when the time comes!"
After hearing this, Hu Luguang's face was full of bitterness. At this time, his own battle formation in the valley had been penetrated by life and death, and the formation was in chaos. Behind him was the rugged mountains. After exiting the valley, he lost the ability to reorganize the formation.
For him, he really had no choice but to fight another day.
