Eight Hills in the Eastern Jin Dynasty

Vol 4 Chapter 3176: Playing the Drums to Advance the Unbeaten Law

Shen Tianzi raised his brows: "Don't you spread out the formation to chase and kill the enemy? Of course you can defend well if you re-arrange the formation, but you will miss the opportunity."

Tan Shao said sternly: "The big stone came with the chariot of Beicheng, and if he can beat Murong Ping, then even if all the armored horses attack him, it is impossible to break the big stone all at once. The crisis here is resolved, and now The most important thing is not to fall into danger again, and to ruin the hard-earned victory again.”

Kui En nodded: "Brother Ah Shao is right, we were greedy for success before, so we gave the enemy the opportunity to open the gap that we had finally opened, but instead seized the opportunity and fell into a desperate situation. However, with the strength of the big stone, we I don't know now, can it really withstand the charge of the enemy's main body armored cavalry?"

Tan Shao said confidently: "If a large number of chariots are invested, then the iron cavalry will have no advantage at all. If Murong Ping brings two or three thousand cavalry and can't rush, then Murong Zhen will not be able to bring the entire army with several thousand cavalry. What is the difference in the results? Moreover, the big stone did not rashly advance. He even kept his distance and fought from a distance, waiting for the enemy's cavalry to take the initiative to attack. This is a very safe way of playing. invincible position!"

Shen Linzi's voice also came from one side: "Yes, the big rock is slowly advancing in formation, we don't have to be too hasty here, not to mention whether the enemy is really retreating, or lure us to pursue, and then set up an ambush and invite attack, it will not matter. It's easy to say, Murong Zhen has a lot of tricks, so he must guard against it."

Tan Shao said with a smile: "Lin Zi is right, just now the enemy attacked several times without success, and the losses were not small, and the possibility of enticing us to attack cannot be ruled out. Steady progress, at least in an invincible position!"

Shen Tianzi raised his brows: "Then what if they come out from behind us in the direction of the city gate, what should we do? The cavalry of the Yue Department rushed out like this before, and it is not ruled out that Murong Zhen also left behind. Inside the city gate."

Tan Shao nodded: "It's enough to keep 3,000 people here to monitor the city gate. Besides, aren't reinforcements coming from Nancheng?"

He said, looking at the guide, and said solemnly: "Look, Zhongde and the others came just now, just to gather troops there, and their infantry has always been alerting the direction of the city gate, if there are really enemy cavalry from the city gate. If we kill it, we will inevitably fall into a situation where we are attacked by both sides, and we can’t ask for it!”

Speaking of this, Tan Hezhi on the side suddenly shouted: "Zhongde called a semaphore and asked us if we could stand it. They have completed the whole team and can come to support the rendezvous!"

Tan Shao nodded: "Reply to Zhongde, let him pay attention to the enemy army in the direction of the city gate, and send cavalry to cover our army's flank to prevent the enemy cavalry from attacking in a roundabout way. Now he doesn't have to rush over to meet up, we can hold it."

Tan Hezhi hurried over to raise the semaphore, and Tan Shao continued to look at Shen Tianzi: "Now, we have to assess our own situation first, in the battle just now, the losses of each team are probably not small, and some troops are afraid that the entire army will be wiped out. Now, stabilize the formation first, and set up the eight cattle crossbow and arrow formation, so that the enemy cavalry can no longer attack."

Speaking of which, Tan Shao looked at Kui En and said solemnly, "Da Zhuang, where is Lao Suo, do you know?"

Kui En said: "Old Suo has been bringing his cavalry to attack Murong Town in a roundabout way. I have teamed up with him several times, and we have sent one or two thousand cavalry to the enemy army to chase them away. The commanding flag of Murong Town is not close to him. There are not many men and horses, less than two hundred cavalry. Now they are covering the back."

Tan Shao said sternly: "You and Lao Suo go to meet first, then I will let Wang Zhongde's cavalry come to reinforce you, under the command of Lao Suo, you will form a formation in the direction of the flank and long encirclement, waiting for our infantry to march forward to face the enemy. , just provide cover."

Quine's eyes lit up: "Are you going to push forward?"

Tan Shao said solemnly: "Evaluate our losses first, if there are more than 10,000 soldiers who can fight, then push forward, we can't let Big Stone fight alone, but this time we must fight steadily, don't rush forward, Our central army has enough arrows and crossbow arrows here. With bows and crossbowmen shooting at the front, Xu Jin oppresses them. As long as the space for the enemy cavalry to go back and forth is compressed to the front line of the gap, they can only retreat. At that time, we will Join forces with Big Stone, and then enter the city!"

Kuai En said with a smile: "As expected of Brother Ah Shao, this is the best way to play, I'll do it now!"

As he said, he reined his horse and rode into the battle. The more than 30 horsemen who were on duty outside the battle followed behind him and ran to the front, and they disappeared immediately.

The sound of war drums rang, and teams of Jin troops were still full of scars, but they were still full of fighting spirit. With halberds and shields, they gathered in the center according to their respective numbers, and the Chinese army in front of Tan Shao The phalanx also quickly re-arranged into various centenary teams, lined up in three rows, and arranged forward according to the pattern of the vanguard and the garrison. The entire front of the Jin army fought from the previous team. The formation of the square and circle has become a three-line advance again, and the front and station are staggered, filling the front more than three miles wide.

It's just that ~www.wuxiaspot.com~ has a lot of formation positions, only a dozen or so people are left, and even some garrison positions are directly empty, which represents the loss in the battle just now, and some troops are attrition. More than 80%, some of them have been wiped out, and at least 30% of the personnel who suffered the least losses are empty.

The main generals of each building are re-arranging their troops at the fastest speed, merging the teams with too few numbers to make up for these gaps, and let the lightly wounded and auxiliary soldiers who can fight put on armor and fill in the queue.

It's just that the large infantry formation that was thick just now, like a forest, has shrunk by more than half now, which means that in less than an hour of hard fighting, there are more than 10,000 Jin soldiers and soldiers who can no longer participate in the battle. The tens of thousands of horses who were crushed under the ruins when the city fell, and the more than 2,000 elites and wooden armors who were ambushed after entering the city, the Jin army in Xicheng had lost more than half!

Shen Tianzi's Wudi light soldiers, with more than 2,000 troops in each team, formed a single phalanx at the moment, located in front of the whole army, spread out in the form of skirmish lines, and Shen Tianzi personally carried them. Two big axes were standing in front of the battle. All the sergeants looked back at Tan Shao. At this moment, he was standing alone on a Chinese army chariot. The four horses were put on the chariot. He looked calm, looked at the soldiers in front, took out his saber, pointed to the front, and said loudly: "Brothers, you are all good, withstood the craziest attack of the enemy, now it is our revenge to destroy the enemy. It's time, let all our hatred be directed at the Yan army opposite, sound the drum, and advance!"
