The camp gate is like a city gate. If the camp gate is breached, it will have a huge impact on the morale of the defenders. When the heavy armored soldiers invade the camp like a tide, wielding sharp swords and slashing and killing, the soldiers arrayed at the camp gate
The soldiers of the Wu army couldn't help but take a breath of cold air.
How to deal with such an enemy?
The heavy armored soldiers turned a blind eye to this situation. Since the formation of the heavy armored soldiers, they have never encountered an opponent. Even if they face the Wei army's cavalry led by Zhang He, they can still kill the opponent, let alone these Wu army soldiers. They
They smoothly changed their formations, forming three rows in front and back, filling each other's positions. After each attack, the heavy armored soldier at the front would stop, and the people behind him would take over to ensure their physical strength.
They were like waves, one wave after another, and every time they advanced, they set off a bloody storm. Under their feet was the land stained red by the blood of the Wu army. The soil was soaked with blood, soaked, wet and slippery, and the soil was wet and slippery.
It creaked when it went up, as if it was the painful groan of the fallen Wu army.
The heavy armor opened the way, and the infantry followed, pouring into the Wu army's camp, spreading out to both sides, killing the Wu army behind the camp fence, knocking down the camp fence, and allowing more companions to rush in.
When the heavy armored soldiers broke through the gate of the Wu army's camp, the company's ballistas adjusted their firing direction. They no longer suppressed the Wu army behind the camp fence, but instead shot vertically, making it difficult for the Wu troops who were preparing to support them to move forward, thus reducing the difficulty of infantry attacks.
.These are tactics that have been trained long ago and require no command at all. Every shooter with a ballista has memorized them by heart.
Zhang Cheng stood on the command platform of the Chinese army, watching the Shu Han army's skillful transitions between offense and defense, and changes in tactics, and felt chills in his heart. Less than half an hour after the battle started, the opponent broke through the camp gate, rushed into the camp, and attacked.
The sharpness was just like the density of the arrow array, which greatly exceeded his estimate. At this rate, it would take less than an hour for all 7,000 of his troops to be wiped out.
The thought of retreating and escaping once again came to Zhang Cheng's mind. He originally hoped to use the camp fence to stop Wei Ba and kill a large number of people. Now that the camp fence has been broken, his hope has been dashed. If he continues to fight, it will be impossible to reverse the situation.
It will only send all soldiers into the abyss of death.
Zhang Cheng gritted his teeth and ordered the front army to break off the rear, and the rear army to become the front army, preparing to break out.
The rear army was on the east side of the camp. They only saw the Shu Han army arrayed outside the camp. The front line was already fighting fiercely. But they didn't know what the battle was like. They were all a little surprised when they heard Zhang Cheng's order to retreat. However, they didn't
If there was any doubt, he immediately opened the camp gate, rushed out of the camp, and attacked the Shu Han army that had just completed their formation.
Heisha stood in front of the formation holding a long sword. He looked at the approaching Wu army and sneered, raised his long sword and shook it. The warriors of the Yuanxi tribe behind him suddenly became excited and roared in unison.
"Fight! Fight! Fight!"
The roar was thunderous and majestic. After hearing this, the flying fox in the distance smiled disdainfully and ordered the drums to be beaten. The sound of the war drums soared into the sky, echoing and colliding with the roar, forming a torrent and rushing towards the Wu army.
Wu Jun was horrified, his charging formation stagnated, and an ominous feeling passed through his heart.
The two sides quickly approached, and the warriors at the front began to shoot at each other. The crossbow chariots in the Shuhan army's formation began to roar, spraying out bursts of dense arrow rain. Although the Wu army officers and soldiers were wearing infantry shields, they were in front of such a powerful arrow formation.
, it was still difficult to cope with it. One by one, the soldiers were shot by sharp arrows and fell in a pool of blood. Less than 30% of those who were lucky enough to rush through the arrow formation reached the front of the Shu Han army's formation. They were easily killed by the Shu Han army's infantry who were waiting for them.
.
Zhang Cheng was inexplicably horrified, and he knew that his momentary hesitation turned into bitter wine. The Shu Han army was not only powerful in attack, but also impregnable in defense. The Shu Han army formation with the support of the crossbow chariots was difficult to break. The ordnance of both sides,
The troops are not at the same level. It is really wishful thinking to break through the formation of 20,000 to 30,000 people with these four to five thousand people. Even if we concentrate our efforts to attack one point, it will be difficult to take advantage.
Zhang Cheng did not dare to take any chances. He immediately adjusted the direction of attack and ordered the Chinese army to attack and storm the southern position of the Shu Han army. It was adjacent to Zishui, so there was no need to worry about being flanked by enemies on both sides, and the defense was relatively weak.
What's more important
There are also some ships parked in Zishui, some ships transporting supplies. With the help of these ships, Zhang Cheng can transport the crossbowmen to the front of the formation to cover the attack. In this way, even Wei Ba has arranged a blockade on the south bank, as long as they have no ships
, were unable to prevent the Wu army from breaking through.
Zhang Cheng's decision was correct. When the Wu Army's crossbowmen stood on the boat and fired at the Shu Han Army on the shore, the Shu Han Army's defense became obviously tense. Heisha, who was in charge of this defense area, ordered reinforcements to be stepped up.
He personally led the heavy armored soldiers to the front of the formation to intercept them.
Arrows flew back and forth from both sides, fighting with their lives, the shouts of killing were deafening, each living life disappeared, and blood flowed freely, dyeing the ground under their feet and the water under their feet red.
Although Wu Jun risked his life to fight, when Heisha led the heavy armored soldiers to the front of the battle, their attack still encountered great resistance. Facing the heavy armored soldiers wielding long swords, they were helpless and sacrificed
Even at a heavy price, there is no way to move forward. The long sword in the hands of the heavy armored soldier is like a messenger that seduces the soul. It is invincible. Even the fine armor on the general's body cannot stop the sword from striking.
Soon, after Feihu led his army to kill the first batch of Wu troops who rushed into the formation, he directed the army to outflank Zhang Cheng's back. On the west side of the battlefield, Wei Ba also successfully defeated the Wu troops who were behind and attacked Zhang Cheng's back.
When Zhang Cheng's personal guards saw that the situation was not good, they shouted loudly: "Quickly, let's escort the general to the ship."
The two guards picked up Zhang Cheng and ran away.
Zhang Cheng's face was ashen and he didn't say a word. After less than two hours of fighting, Wei Ba easily defeated his camp without any fancy skills or exquisite tactics, just with unrivaled strength.
Strong and powerful, he crushed his defense line step by step, just like a giant kicking to pieces a castle built by a child. Now the seven thousand army has been completely lost, and the sixty thousand Shu Han army is outflanking it from three directions. Even if Sun Wu is still alive, he has not returned.
The power of heaven.
Zhang Cheng's troops took Zhang Cheng hostage, grabbed a boat, rowed to the center of Zishui, and fled downstream to Yiyang City.
Heisha saw Zhang Cheng's figure, abandoned the enemy in front of him, and chased after him. However, the Wu troops in front of him were all Zhang Cheng's troops. How could he be allowed to succeed so easily? They blocked Heisha one by one regardless of life and death.
In front of him, although Heisha danced his sword vigorously and killed dozens of people one after another, he still could not break through their blockade in time. He could only watch Zhang Cheng get on the boat and go down the river.
"Shoot, shoot him to death!" Heisha roared.
Several crossbow vehicles adjusted their directions and fired fiercely at Zhang Cheng. Zhang Cheng's troops gathered tightly together and used the shields in their hands to build a lifeline for Zhang Cheng. The arrows shot on it, making a thumping sound.
Several of them were hit by arrows and groaned in pain, but they still held up the shield in their hands to protect Zhang Cheng, who looked haggard, and his companions who were rowing hard.
Driven by dozens of wooden oars, the cargo ship showed unprecedented speed and rowed into the distance.
Without Zhang Cheng's command, the surrounded Wu army collapsed completely. Facing the Shu Han army besieged from three sides, they no longer had any fighting spirit, put down their weapons, and fell to their knees.
In just two hours, all 7,000 Wu troops were wiped out, with only the general Zhang Cheng and dozens of his troops escaping the siege. Wei Ba was very satisfied with this result. He ordered the troops to clean the battlefield, count the results, and ordered generals above the rank of captain to
Gather at the Chinese military tent.
Heisha and Feihu walked into the tent side by side. Heisha bowed his hands in shame and said, "General God, it was my negligence that allowed Zhang Cheng to run away."
Wei Ba waved his hand and said comfortingly: "It doesn't matter. Our army came in a hurry and didn't bring a boat. It is expected that Zhang Cheng escaped from the water."
Heisha smacked his lips regretfully and stood aside. Wei Ba turned his face and smiled at Feihu: "Your timely reinforcements today will be of great benefit to end the battle as soon as possible and reduce the casualties of our army. You have done a great job."
Feihu smiled reservedly, glanced at Heisha inadvertently, and stood aside. Heisha was upset and turned his head away. They were both from the Wuxi tribe, and Heisha was still the new barbarian king, but in terms of resourcefulness,
, Heisha has never been a match for Feihu, an old fox. This time, equipped with heavy armor, he even allowed Zhang Cheng to escape from his defense zone. Heisha looked a little confused.
Wei Ba reviewed the situation again on the sand table and asked each general to describe the battle situation at that time, what difficulties they encountered, and how they broke through. When they were fighting on the battlefield, they could only see a small area in front of them.
I can't take into account too much, I'm here now
The entire battle was recreated on the sand table, and the various small battlefields were combined. When overlooking the battlefield, the vision was completely different. Many people showed expressions of sudden realization, and some even remembered the tactical principles they had learned, although it was only a sentence or two.
But it was very fruitful.
Wei Ba didn't say much, and most of the time he let everyone express their own opinions. Fighting still depends on understanding. Everyone learns the same art of war, but there are differences in how to use soldiers. What you understand by yourself is the real experience.
After all, what others instill is just dogma. One or two sentences of guidance are enough at critical times. Talking too much will make them inert.
Deng Yang and others stood aside, watching Wei Ba patiently teach the barbarians, watching the strong and fierce barbarians discussing around the sand table like little boys, they couldn't help but sigh inwardly. Generals who are good at using troops.
There are not many in the first place, and there are even fewer famous generals who are good at teaching. These people are still ignorant.
Barbarians, it is not easy for Wei Ba to teach them well, not to mention that some of them can understand more and have the potential to become good generals. It doesn't take much, just train two or three generals who can stand alone.
, Wei Ba's strength will be further improved. He is not short of soldiers now, he is short of generals.
Obviously, Wei Ba himself understood this very well and was trying his best to improve it.
Maybe, I should be as diligent in military affairs as Zhuge Dan? Deng Yang thought to himself, I am also the Deng family of Nanyang. Speaking of which, I am also related to Wei Ba's maternal line.
