The Nameless of the Common Clans
Chapter 220 Yuan Shu's Anger
"Lord, the latest news detected by the scouts is that our army's checkpoints on the cliffs on both sides of Yique Pass are still there." Among Yuan Shu's troops, Han Dang came to Yuan Shu excitedly to report the latest news.
"Sentry post?" Yuan Shu looked at Han Dang in confusion.
"Previously, General Yu She set up two checkpoints on the cliffs on both sides of Yique Pass. The soldiers shot arrows down from the top of the mountain to intimidate Yique Pass. Now these soldiers are still entrenched on the top of the mountain. Chen Mo moved his troops to Yangrenju this time. It is to avoid this weakness, and also to cut off its food supply, so that it can retreat without a fight." Han Dang bowed.
Yang Hong on the side nodded and said with a smile: "In this way, we know why Chen Mo gave up Yiquejian City and set up camp here instead. The cliffs on both sides of Yique Pass are steep, making it easy to defend and difficult to attack. If you want to capture it, it will be extremely difficult. If you want to use our army It is more difficult to capture before arriving. Rather than doing so, it would be more decisive to abandon the fortified city, stop our army, and cut off the food routes of the two checkpoints. "
"Lord, if this is the case, our army only needs to force Chen Mo back to Yique Pass, and we have already won half the battle!" Zhang Xun said with a smile.
Yuan Shu stroked his beard and nodded: "Can you send some military rations first?"
Yangrenju is not Guancheng. Although the main road is blocked by the opponent, if it is just a small group of people taking a detour to send food and grass there, it is still possible, provided that no one is taking care of it.
"I'm afraid it will be difficult." Yang Hong shook his head and said, "Chen Mo went out to fight this time in order to cut off the food routes for the soldiers at the top of the cliff. There must be scouts and horses monitoring the trails everywhere, and there are many cavalry under his command. If he sends a small group of troops forward If you go to deliver food, you will be intercepted by the other party.”
"In this case, the only way is to attack by force." Yuan Shu nodded and said, "Can we rob the camp?"
Thinking that his general died in Chen Mo's robbery camp, Yuan Shu couldn't help but ask.
"Chen Mo must be prepared, but he can still give it a try. If he succeeds, it will save a lot of effort." Yang Hong nodded.
Robbery of a camp generally does not require too many manpower. Just like Chen Mo's previous hijack, he only brought 800 soldiers with him the first time. Later, Hua Xiong only brought more than a thousand soldiers and horses with him to rob the camp. Once the military camp is blown up, one's own family members are actually more powerful than the enemy. All scary.
Yuan Shu has an army of 50,000, and he can afford the loss of one or two thousand, but if he succeeds, the benefits will be huge, and the battle may be won directly.
At that moment, Yuan Shu ordered a school of troops to lead a general to rob the camp tonight.
Yang Hong added: "You also need to be careful of Chen Mo coming to rob the camp. I asked General Han Dang that Chen Mo's method of robbing the camp is very difficult to guard against, so don't be careless!"
Yuan Shu nodded. Chen Mo's operation of hijacking the camp twice in one night also surprised Yuan Shu. But what made him angry was that Yu She was so careless. The enemy robbed the camp twice and it immediately collapsed. He immediately arranged for manpower to guard it. In the camp, the night watch soldiers are divided into three rounds and guarded in turns to maintain high energy and vigilance.
Unfortunately, as Yang Hong said, the soldiers who robbed the camp returned in vain, and they did not even encounter the other people's camp. Many of the soldiers who went to rob the camp were killed by the traps set by Chen Mo outside the camp. , and was shot back by a hail of arrows from the soldiers guarding the camp.
Eight hundred people went and six hundred people came back. The most important thing was that they didn't even touch anyone's door, which made Yuan Shu feel quite dull.
"My lord, there is no need to be angry. Chen Mo is good at robbing the camp, so he will naturally take adequate precautions against it." Yang Hong was not in a hurry. This robbing of the camp was just a test. Now their military strength is several times that of Chen Mo. They can He majestically defeated Chen Mo's camp with a crushing force.
Early the next morning, Yuan Shu began to attack the camp, using catapults, rams and other heavy equipment, hoping to break through Chen Mo's camp in the shortest possible time.
But Chen Mo was quite skillful at guarding the camp. As he approached the rams, he ordered people to use catapults to throw out the fire oil tanks brought from the city. Then he shot down a rocket, and a large number of rams and even catapults fell into the sea of fire. During the war, countless soldiers were burned and burned to death.
Before he could attack the opponent's camp wall, he was attacked like this. Yuan Shu looked a little unhappy and said to Yang Hong beside him: "I remember that there is also kerosene in the army."
"Yes, but it will take some time for the new trebuchet to arrive." Yang Hong nodded and then said helplessly.
"Then withdraw the troops for now and wait a moment!" Yuan Shu said with an ugly expression.
It took an hour for the new trebuchet to be moved to the front of the formation. Yuan Shu was about to order people to move the trebuchet to the front of the formation, but he saw that there were many collapses on the ground, and most of the trebuchets fell into the sudden pit. , but Chen Mo calculated the investment yesterday. Before Yuan Shu's arrival, the stone machine had dug a lot of ravines. Yesterday, when the opponent came to rob the camp, they actually stepped on a few of them. Chen Mo sent people to cover them up overnight. The defeated army only said there were traps, but did not notice these big holes. It's not really for them.
At this moment, a large number of fire oil cans flew out of the camp, and dozens of catapults caught fire again.
Yuan Shu's face turned dark and he shouted sharply: "Why didn't the scout detect the trap!?"
The generals were also a little speechless. Who knew that Chen Mo calculated the range of the catapult to dig a hole? No one had fought like this on the battlefield before?
"Send people to put out the fire and attack the camp directly!" Yuan Shu also knew that there was no point in pursuing this kind of issue at this time, so he ordered immediately.
The camp is no better than the city wall. Even if the camp gate is not attacked, the camp wall made of wooden planks can be easily destroyed.
Teams of soldiers dug the soil on the spot, and under the protection of shielders, they stepped forward to extinguish the fire and level the pits while facing the enemy's arrows. It took another full hour. Seeing that it was approaching noon, Yuan Jun's soldiers finally They rushed up against the rain of arrows, but except for the camp gate, the dense wooden thorns all over the camp made it difficult for them to let go and rush forward. Instead, they were killed by the rain of arrows in the camp.
Most of the day passed, and not many soldiers could touch the opponent's wall. Yuan Shu now wanted to rush to Chen Mo with his sword and chop the opponent down. This battle was so disgusting.
"A bastard is a bastard, and he only uses vulgar methods!" Standing on the carriage shaft, Yuan Shu tried hard to maintain his image, but his chest was constantly beating, and he was obviously very angry.
Next, a group of soldiers braved the rain of arrows and ran to remove the barbs. For a whole day, the reinforcement soldiers were clearing the traps set by Chen Mo. After the barbs were removed, the sky was almost dark.
"My lord, the soldiers have been tired for a day, and the rice and water have not been brought in. Now the morale is low and we can no longer fight!" Seeing that Yuan Shu had the intention to fight all night, Yang Hong hurriedly advised.
Originally, first the opponent poured down the fire oil and forcibly stopped their attack, then the pit stopped again, and then there were barbs all over the ground. , even in terms of morale, attacking the city now will definitely suffer.
Yuan Shu's face was as dark as the bottom of a pot, and he suppressed his anger and said: "Let that kid live one more night! Ming Jin withdraws the troops!"
Dang Dang Dang Dang~
The crisp sound of ringing gold sounded so pleasant to Chen Mo. He stood on the camp gate, looked at the retreating Yuan Jun soldiers, and said to the archer on the side: "Sounding arrows!"
"Whoops~" A loud arrow shot out of the air. The arrowhead was specially processed and made a sharp whistling sound when it soared into the air.
Yang Hong, who was directing the withdrawal of troops, felt an inexplicable suddenness in his heart when he heard the sound. He quickly stood on the shaft of the carriage and looked in the direction of Chen Mo's camp.
Chen Mo's camp gate was still closed, with no intention of opening it, but soon, a group of cavalry had bypassed the back of the camp and headed straight for them.
However, Chen Mo had already ordered Hua Xiong to lead 3,000 cavalry out of the camp. As soon as the arrows were fired, he would send his troops to follow and attack the enemy formation. Hua Xiong just waited outside for a day without seeing a signal. If he had not had some confidence in Chen Mo's ability, he would have lost his patience. Stop, as soon as he broke out at this moment, he used all the strength he had been holding back all day, and charged directly at the retreating soldiers of the reinforcements with murderous intent.
Yuan Shu was also shocked by this turn of events. Although he knew that it was not wise to stop and fight back at this time, the enemy's cavalry was coming. If he didn't fight back, he would be massacred. He quickly ordered the flag officer to change the order and ordered the soldiers of the three armies. Form a formation on the spot.
It's just that these soldiers have been busy for a day. They originally came to fight, but after clearing the road for a day, their morale has long been lost and they are exhausted. Now that they see the enemy coming, they have no intention of fighting. Even if they stop to form formations, they are in a mess. There is no way. What a formation to speak of.
…
Hua Xiong looked at the approaching enemy formation, his breathing became heavy, his eyes flashed with excitement and bloodthirsty, the sword in his hand was raised high, and he galloped wildly, with three thousand Xiliang cavalry following closely behind him. Behind them, the huge cavalry formation was like a tidal wave coming from hell, rushing towards these demoralized Yuan Jun soldiers with the power to crush everything.
Between heaven and earth, there seemed to be only the sound of thousands of iron hooves tapping the ground, and the whole world seemed to be trembling.
Yuan Jun's already somewhat chaotic formation began to commotion in the face of such an imposing Xiliang cavalry. The soldiers standing in the front row looked around in fear. Some people had begun to retreat. Many generals kept yelling and scolding, trying to control the situation, but faced with The Xiliang cavalry were getting closer and closer, but fewer and fewer soldiers were able to hold on.
"Kill!" Hua Xiong took the lead. The scattered spears could not exert the power of the spear formation at all. They were easily chopped open by him with one knife. The soldiers in front were directly knocked away by the horses.
"Boom~"
The huge cavalry formation crashed into Yuan Jun's broken formation, like the sky bursting, and countless blood splashed instantly. Yuan Jun, who had no fighting spirit, fled in a panic. Even if Yuan Jun's generals killed deserters one after another, they could not stop the collapse of the army. trend.
For a moment, the sky collapsed and the earth shattered. Countless Yuan Jun soldiers turned around and joined the fleeing army. However, the Xiliang Iron Cavalry became more and more courageous as they fought. They were as brave as a tiger emerging from a stream.
At the rear, Yang Hong closed his eyes in despair and directed the troops to disperse to the two wings. The defeated army had begun to attack the Chinese army's formation. They were defeated like a mountain. Now they can only hope to reduce the losses as much as possible...
