Sweep the World

The shield formation of the Han army is no stranger to the Shijie Zhao army. The second appearance was in the battle of Xuzhou. In this battle, 10,000 Han soldiers formed an army formation to fight against 80,000 Shijie Zhao. It was the first demonstration of the shield formation. And the terrifying power brought by the strong bow and crossbow. ?

The straight line that formed the shield array kept advancing slowly, and the continuous crossbowmen who followed the advancing behind fired at least a thousand crossbow arrows with almost every breath. The continuous rain of crossbow arrows, coupled with the powerful crossbows at the back, shot against the rocks. Jie Zhao Jun formed an absolute suppression, making it difficult for the archers sent by Yao Yizhong to strike back.

The Han army sword and shield soldiers rushed into the trench by this. They carried a small round shield and held a war knife. As soon as they entered the trench, they encountered the enemy.

Dou A first used a shield to block the mallet from the swing. The next moment he slashed out the sword in his hand. The blade smashed the enemy's neck, and blood rushed out from where he was hit.

An enemy stabbed with a spear and forced Dou'a to shield him and crouch, and the sound of metal crashing sounded loudly. He was also pushed back by a huge force and staggered two steps back, but at this time, there was a robe who passed him towards him. Before hacking and killing the enemy.

When Dou'a stabilized his body and prepared to fight again, several robes were already advancing with shields in front of them. They coordinated to cover each other to block weapons for their comrades and seize the opportunity to give the enemy a fatal blow.

The trenches were dug by the Qiang troops for nearly ten days. The depth should be about one metre, causing the groundwater to overflow to the knees. Every step forward is wading through the water and the mud at the bottom.

The shield formation formed by the Han army had to split when it approached the trench. The long-line shield formation became an irregular small shield formation after splitting again and again. That was also an opportunity for the Qiang troops to counterattack.

When the Han army's shield formation splits, it is the moment when the long-range Han army loses cover. At that time, the Qiang archers will be driven by the officers to emerge from the hiding place and fight back against the rain of arrows.

Most Qiang archers have no chance to shoot an arrow at all, but even if only a small number of Qiang archers succeed in shooting arrows, they will also cause damage to the Lien crossbowmen on the Han side.

There will never be a lack of screams and deaths on the battlefield. The red blood flowing out of the human body will flow on the earth, and the blood will flow together when it is too much. They will successfully meet in low-lying areas and become a pool of blood full of smell.

Dou'a is now another Sima, the quality of his armor will be better than that of ordinary soldiers, and he can vaguely see that the armor on his body has left traces of sharp weapons in the fight just now.

The reason why the death rate of officers is lower than that of ordinary soldiers is not only because the number of officers is smaller than that of soldiers, nor is it that officers always stay in a safe position. In fact, the main reason is that the armors of officers are far better than soldiers.

Looking at the marks on the Dou A armor, if the blows fall on ordinary soldiers, the soldier without armor is definitely dead, and the leather armor can’t be saved. Ordinary iron armor should be damaged, but he is only Some parts without armor are injured.

"Okay, go too far, let's fight and retreat."

The long-range attack of the Han army has not stopped. Although it deliberately avoided the location of the trench, there will still be some arrows falling. If the Han sergeant who is unlucky enough to be killed by his own arrow at this time, there will be nowhere. Reasonable.

The sword and shield soldiers of Dou'a team are more than just fighting and retreating. When they retreat, they still don't forget to cut off the heads of the enemy's war dead. Who makes the Han army remember the merits of the enemy's head.

The sword and shield soldiers in the trenches retreat for a certain distance and then stop to build a line on the spot. When the enemy forces come back, they move forward again, often returning to fight in the trenches. Their main responsibility is to block the enemy forces in the trenches and prevent them from threatening their long-range forces through the trenches.

The battle on the ground was at its most intense. Before the shield walls of the two armies collided with each other, the long-range troops on the Han side had stopped archery within two hundred steps, and only the strong crossbow troops still formed an arrow formation. Repetitive coverage is performed at positions beyond two hundred steps.

"It's really an elite team. The enemy has already collapsed and retreated."

"Yes, they didn't collapse."

In fact, whether a soldier is elite or not is not simply distinguished by whether it is high in martial arts. The true elite can be absolute obedience to military orders and possess extraordinary willpower. Otherwise, they can fight again, but they will ignore the military order, and there is no military law at all. What is the use of ass.

The atmosphere on the upper level of the Han army is becoming serious. The more elite the offensive Qiang army is, the more determined the determination of Yao Yizhong will be on behalf of Yao Yizhong. Will have a victory or defeat in the next few days.

"It's time to order the peripheral troops to attack with all their strength." Ji Chang pointed to the location of the Qiang army, which was less than one mile away from the battlefield: "Yao Yizhong personally supervised the battle. The surrounding troops..."

Where the Dajun is, it means where the head coach is. There are many Qiang troops around Yao Yizhong. They are the same soldiers in iron armor, including iron armored infantry and assault cavalry. In addition to that part of the elite, there are more ordinary Qiang soldiers, and people and horses converge into a large area.

Yes, no matter how you look at it, it's a decisive battle.

Yao Yizhong's position is to attack the camp on the north side of the Han army, but it cannot be ruled out that it is just a blindfold, because the attack is now in four directions.

The scale of engagement in the other three areas may not be as large as the north side. The cruelty is indeed not lost to the north side battlefield at all. The west side is where infantry is engaged, and the east and south sides are mixed battles between infantry and cavalry.

Liu Yan’s two-way reinforcements were not too far from Luoyin. The 20,000 paces crossing the river from Licheng was only less than 20 miles away from the Luoyin battlefield. The 30,000 cavalry in Jian County was farther away. .

The road in Su County has successfully broken through Hu Yansheng's interception. Although they are thirty miles away from Luoyin, don't forget that they are cavalry.

For a cavalry with one person and many horses in thirty miles, a full gallop means one or two hours to reach. The difference is how Hu Yansheng will intercept it, or how much combat power is left after galloping over. The only thing that can be confirmed is that, let alone the armor and equipment of the Tiger Ben Army, which has been galloping for 30 miles, the whole marching for more than 10 miles should be abolished.

The senior leaders of the Han army are discussing how to deal with the situation, and the Qiang army is also conducting similar discussions.

Yao Yizhong's decision was very simple. It was to attack and attack again, and it would not stop even in the dark. Since the general attack started, he would fight to the end. It was all because Liu Yan's reinforcements were really coming.

"If Liu Yan's reinforcements cannot enter the Han army camp before they arrive..." Yao Yi said uncertainly, "Then there is only one way to withdraw the troops."

The big man should have the decision to choose, Yao Yizhong would rather be blamed by Shihu, he is not willing to consume the people in his hand for a war that is destined to be unvictorious.

Does Yao Yizhong really know that the Yellow River is at risk of being blocked? Absolutely not. He blocked the Yellow River's estuary with a lot of debris to prevent Han warships from coming from the sea. Recently, many Han troops have appeared along the line of Le'an County. The reconnaissance cavalry reported that the Han troops were trying to salvage the debris in the river. , I don’t know if An Neng is dredging the river to prepare for the arrival of the fleet?

According to the estimation of the Qiang people, the flow of the river itself and the dredging of the Han army, the Yellow River may be unblocked within a month at the earliest, and the Han army's fleet will definitely come in Jieshi.

Yao Yizhong knew that the navy of the Han Dynasty was very powerful, and he also thought that Liu Yan would definitely block the Yellow River. But what he could not imagine was that Liu Yan had already prepared a fleet on the Luzi River, and that fleet had already begun to move towards the Yellow River. Enter, and within two days of no accident, they will arrive at the Yellow River around the main battlefield, and blockade the river section.

The battle on the east side has been interrupted. It was the cavalry of the Han army that not only defeated the attacking Qiang troops, they also rushed to the Qiang camp in that position, forcing the Qiang troops in that position to abandon the front of the camp.

The fighting on the south side is still fierce. It is the south side of the Han barracks that Yao Yizhong values ​​very much. He is worried that if the encircling circle fails, the Han cavalry will go to meet the friendly forces from the source. If this situation is really caused. It would be pretty bad.

Because of his importance, Yao Yizhong continued to increase his troops to the local battlefield to the south, and the situation of the warring troops would become bad for the Han cavalry that broke out. After all, even the assault cavalry dare not face the dense crowds. The charge in this situation is extremely uneconomical. The assault cavalry and the infantry battle with less than three to one exchanges are definitely a loss, not to mention that it is extremely likely to be three-to-one. The ratio of one cannot be achieved.

The fact is that, as long as the infantry is dense enough, and the infantry is not frightened to collapse by the cavalry's momentum, I am afraid that only armored equipment will charge the infantry in the dense formation.

There are always exceptions to things, such as a commander who doesn't care about casualties. Liu Yan didn't care about the casualties of the system troops, but he would not be soft-hearted and hesitate too much when necessary.

The Han army cavalry on the south side rushed to the dense Qiang infantry group one after another. The scene was row after row stepping on heavy horse hooves, and then about seventy miles or so. When the horse hits a person, the knight on the horseback doesn't have any stirrups and saddles. Even if there are stirrups and saddles, they will be thrown out by inertia. The person who was hit by the war horse was definitely because of broken internal organs, spurting blood out of his mouth and nose, and he would also fall back violently.

The Qiang troops here were charged by the Han Tussauds at all costs in the front, but at the back were the soldiers who hacked to death and turned and fled.

To put it bluntly, Yao Yizhong is really red-eyed. He expects to attack for only five days. After five days, he will definitely withdraw if he does not see the hope of victory, and he will not even have a little room for negotiation.

Since even the date of retreat has been calculated, Yao Yizhong will certainly not forget to estimate how many people can be sacrificed. His bottom line is one hundred thousand. No matter how much he thinks, his hands and feet will tremble and cold sweat will come out. It must be said that among the 100,000 people he expects to be sacrificed, the miscellaneous Hus and Jin people accounted for 70%.

The so-called one hundred thousand to be sacrificed does not count the previous losses. The offensive in the first six days has caused Yao Yizhong to lose nearly ninety thousand people. The damage was not all killed in battle. The number of people who were killed directly was about 40,000, and the rest were disabled or temporarily lost combat effectiveness. It was on the side of the cavalry reinforcements that blocked the Han army that accounted for the majority of the deaths, and more than 10,000 were annihilated by the tiger army alone.

The progress of the war did not stop at noon. Relatively speaking, the east was the region with the lowest intensity of the entire battle. The worst was not the north, but the south, which was repeatedly hit by the Han army's cavalry.

"Where does Liu Yan have so many cavalry?" Yao Yizhong couldn't figure it out: "Why is he willing to use the precious cavalry to consume like this!"

The Qiang troops on the southern battlefield have collapsed twice. You must know that the cavalry really rushed directly at any cost. The momentum is really not normal, and the casualties caused to the infantry are not much smaller, especially for the impact. The psychological shadow caused by the other side is even more difficult to describe.

"We threw in nearly 13,000 people, and the Han army didn’t feel good. It should be the Tuqi who lost nearly 3,000." Cao Yao is one of Shijie Zhao’s many Sima, and the official position of Sima is true. Not low. He also had a face full of incomprehension: "We are using miscellaneous soldiers to pile up~www.wuxiaspot.com~ They trade elites?"

Yao Yizhong wanted to think optimistically in the direction that Liu Yan was forced into anxiousness, but he thought it a little bit but felt very wrong.

There is nothing wrong with the Qiang army's general attack. The main attack on the north is firmly blocked a hundred steps away, and the other few feint attacks are not close to the Han barracks.

Furthermore, Yao Yizhong was reported again just now that the two outlying Han troops were attacking fiercely, especially the cavalry-dominated Han troops had continuously broken through the two interception lines set up by Hu Yansheng.

Yao Yizhong really couldn't guess how many Han troops were besieged. Every time he guessed that a number would be overthrown in the next battle, he was a little unsure of thinking:

Perhaps he felt that he should press it again, and it is very likely that he would be able to figure out Liu Yan's bottom by pressing it again. Not only did Yao Yizhong gritted his teeth to increase his forces in the north, but the feints on the other three sides also changed.

When Yao Yizhong's movements were noticed by the senior officials of the Han army, apart from Liu Yan who was still calm, several counsellors were anxious.

"Your Majesty, our military disadvantage is too obvious!" Ji Chang didn't know what he was thinking about to scare himself, his forehead was covered with cold sweat, and even said: "According to this trend, your Majesty...maybe he should be prepared to break through? "

The others didn’t speak, but they all held the same meaning. They felt that Liu Yan was taking himself as a bait to be too risky. Now Yao Yizhong is obviously crazy, not counting the casualties and onslaught, even more that he feels that even tens of thousands of troops. There is nothing wrong with Liu Yan's funeral here.

"Hehe." Liu Yan was still laughing, and after laughing, he said, "War of attrition? I like it!"

……split line……

I had insomnia last night and my mind was a little empty. It took six hours to code only four thousand words. Today is this chapter. 8
