50. The feeling of going up and down – this really isn’t an elevator
"How come this damn Gongsun Ke got to the front at this moment!"
Regarding Gongsun Ke's behavior, Gongsun Fan was helpless and a little annoyed. After all, logically speaking, compared to the white horse Yi Cong who was better at riding and shooting, it was the troops led by Gongsun Ke who actually charged and cut through the enemy formation, because
These troops are better at hand-to-hand combat, and relatively speaking, their sacrifices are not as painful as those of Baima Yicong.
Therefore, Gongsun Fan could only secretly regret that his ability to seize opportunities had deteriorated somewhat after taking the position of Baima Yi as the leader. At the same time, he also decided not to let the greatest achievement of killing Yuan Shao go unnoticed.
Therefore, Gongsun Fan, who had adjusted his mentality, also issued the order to charge, regardless of whether he should use arrow rain to interfere with the enemy from behind, in order to prevent the enemy from regrouping into a dense formation and increase the difficulty and battle of his own charge.
damage.
Perhaps in Gongsun Fan's view, the enemy was obviously at the end of his rope and it was a good time to take advantage of the victory and pursue the enemy.
So that...
"General, there seems to be some movement in the middle of Yuan Shao's army in the distance. It seems that some troops have come out."
"Can you clearly see what kind of army it is?"
"It's too far away to see clearly, but it seems to be infantry, and it moves very slowly, and doesn't seem to be in a hurry."
"Then don't worry about them. Little mosquitoes and flies can't change the situation on the battlefield. I'll charge!"
So just like that, Gongsun Fan forgot about the reminder from his other lieutenant.
"It's done!"
Although the chaos around him seems to be expanding, Shang Yu no longer feels a trace of irritability at this time. Although there is still a little excitement in his heart, his heartbeat speeds up, and his blood flow speeds up, but there is still more.
A feeling of peace of mind, an emotion that was familiar to him but felt strange at this moment.
As expected, I am still not mature enough, so I have to rely on the support of my mature and stable seniors.
It is not that I have never felt unwilling to do so in my heart. Although I was suppressed by the thought of "complete the mission" and the thought of "repaying the lord for promoting me", I also secretly made a vow to become a general like my predecessors.
Such a man.
"So I must behave more beautifully next!" This can be regarded as a small goal under the big oath.
"Hmph, Yuan Shao's front army is in disarray and can no longer hold on any longer. Gongsun Zheng led a group of troops around the left side of the enemy's front army and inserted in. Chen Tao led a group of troops around the right side of the enemy's front army and inserted in. The rest followed.
I must mess up the enemy, do you understand?"
"Subordinates take orders!"×2.
The Gongsun Army is indeed a battle group with cavalry as its main force. The soldiers who can become a member of the main cavalry force of the Gongsun Army have excellent horse control skills. There is almost no pause. The next moment the order is issued, it is like a huge cone.
Gongsun's army's cavalry troops were divided into three, and they fired three arrows at once, rushing towards the weak point of Yuan Shao's army.
Facing the impending cavalry charge, some soldiers in Yuan Shao's army who were already on the verge of mental collapse could no longer suppress their panic. They screamed and dropped their weapons, turned around and fled back, despite those soldiers.
No matter how the general intimidated, appeased or even killed him with his own hands, it seemed that he could not resist the spread of this trend.
This situation can be said to be one of the most suitable scenes for cavalry attacks, and it is also the most favorite scene for cavalry troops.
Gongsun Fan, who saw the changes in Yuan Jun's front army from a distance, strengthened his judgment at this time and ordered his troops to speed up to follow Gongsun Ke's troops who were charging ahead. The cavalry bows he originally held in his hands were also replaced by
A spear for melee combat.
Impact, charge towards the enemy formation. Shred, completely tear the enemy into pieces!
Although the number cannot be compared with that unprecedented battle that took place in the northwest but was unknown to the Central Plains, it was enough to make the blood of soldiers who had never seen large-scale cavalry charges boil -
This is true for both our own side and the enemy, but the effects are obviously completely opposite.
As a result, the morale of Yan Gang's troops responsible for attacking the flanks was greatly boosted for a while, and Yuan Shaojun's left-wing troops, who were originally able to compete with them, gradually became a little weak. No matter how restrained the left-wing general was, he could not prevent small-scale deserters.
appeared, and seemed to be crumbling under the constant advances of Yan Gang, who had seized the fighter plane.
"Although this news makes me a little embarrassed, I have to praise: Gongsun Bogui is indeed a hero of his generation. If it weren't for the heavy setbacks caused by the two battles between Guanzi and Luoyang, the victory or defeat today may still be unknown. But Gongsun Zan alone
They are all so difficult to deal with, the Dong thieves who retreated to Xiliang are even more powerful, and Li Shushi from Bingzhou is like a poisonous tongue, so my future may not be too boring."
Although it seemed that the situation on the front line was developing against his own side, Yuan Shao surprisingly did not show any panic expression on his face. Instead, he looked confident that he had "the pearl of wisdom in hand", as if he had everything under control.
The civil servants and generals around Yuan Shao also had no desire to dissuade Yuan Shao from this optimistic attitude. They even looked like old gods were present, as if they were watching the prey in the trap make its final struggle.
Why do they have such great confidence?
Not long after Yuan Shao finished speaking, Gongsun Ke's troops were less than a stone's throw away from their target. It can be said that this has entered a very dangerous distance, because such a distance has already accelerated the speed of the troops.
For the tallest war horses, it is only minutes and seconds. The enemy does not even have time to retreat after shooting an arrow. This means that no one can stop them. The only thing they need to consider is how to do it when possible.
Protect yourself from a wave of attacks.
Yes, they firmly believe that even if the enemy attacks, it will only be a dying struggle and a comeback.
They could clearly see that some soldiers had indeed raised their crossbows, locking their bodies firmly, and the arrows on the crossbows waiting to be fired were flashing with cold light - but so what, they were not brave.
The elite Gongsun Army who is afraid of death!
Not to mention that they can clearly see that there are too few soldiers who can perform such actions without trembling. Most of them are either trembling in their bodies, or their arms are trembling, and more often their legs are shaking.
They shuddered. And what this behavior meant, as veterans of the Gongsun Army, was all too clear - the damage done to them by arrows that could not be aimed would be greatly reduced.
Therefore, they quickly came to the conclusion: the enemy in front of them was nothing to fear!
However, just when the Gongsun Army soldier had already regarded victory as something within his grasp, a huge voice rang out:
"Everyone, listen up, the front row raises the crossbow, target the enemy in front, release!...Back off!"
"Raise the crossbow in the middle, target the enemy in front of you... let go!... stand back!"
"The back row raises the crossbow, targeting the enemy in front; the archer raises the bow, targeting the enemy in the rear, and release it!"
"Free fire for one round, abandon the bow and crossbow, and charge with me!"
Compared with the sound of galloping horses' hooves and the wails of the recruits out of fear, this huge voice seems to be just a little louder than the ordinary roar, and it seems that it should be buried by the huge and noisy sound.
.
But what makes people feel strange is that this sound is like a rock in the sea. No matter how the waves beat, it can never be completely suppressed. After the huge waves, the sound appears tenaciously and clearly in everyone's ears.
side.
What's even more amazing is that when they heard this sound, the already uncontrollable desire to attack those veterans who had returned from Xiliang was curbed in an instant. Instead, an unprecedented momentum burst out from their bodies, making them jump from their original state.
Some scattered individuals or small groups become a huge whole - a huge machine running under the command of one person.
Those giant machines in modern society need either fossil energy to provide power, or other energy sources converted from fossil energy to operate. So what does this huge machine composed of tens of thousands of people rely on to maintain operation?
flesh!
The flesh and blood of the enemy!
Use the flesh, blood and life of the enemy who is full of surprise and disbelief in front of you as a sacrifice to that terrifying machine!
Yes, every soldier in the Gongsun Army cavalry had an incredible look on their face, and this look never changed even after they died. Naturally, their eyes never closed and they stared fixedly in front of them, almost close.
The former military formation of Yuan Shao's army is so close yet seems so far away.
Because they were once so close to the fruit of victory, but in the end they found that they were so far away from it.
From chaos to orderly advancement and retreat, Yuan Shaojun only needed one sentence and one voice. The group of veterans who returned from the northwest seemed to have found their backbone.
The outstanding strength they had developed during the war, and more importantly, they showed their dignity and pride as elite men in front of Gongsun Jun!
And all these changes only require the appearance of a voice.
Is it amazing?
If you look for any veteran from Yuan Shao's army who returned from the northwest, they will tell you the same answer: No!
These soldiers have heard the orders issued by that voice countless times in the northwest. They avoided the disaster of annihilation because of the orders given by that voice, and won victory because of the guidance of the owner of the voice. So it was like this kind of obedience was gradually integrated into
It is in their blood that whenever this voice sounds on the battlefield and an order is issued on the battlefield, they will not unconsciously act according to that order, meticulously and accurately, and then win the battle just like in the past.
of victory.
As for them, in addition to obeying the orders of that voice, they were left to watch the owner of that voice's brave figure on the battlefield, just like before their eyes - with only three swords, the once invincible cavalry general of Gongsun Army was defeated.
Gongsun Ke was beheaded from his horse.
With one strike of the knife, Gongsun Ke's hand holding the weapon was twisted into a strange angle, and the hollow door in his abdomen opened wide.
With two sword strikes, Gongsun Ke lost the weapon in his hand and at the same time, bits of scarlet were sprinkled from the tiger's mouth.
The three swords allowed Gongsun Ke to watch his body, which was constantly spraying tomato sauce, slide off the horse like a broken sack from a high-altitude bird's-eye view that he had never experienced before, leaving only a domineering back figure in front of the darkness.
.
"Turn around, turn around, turn around quickly!"
It had to be said that Gongsun Fan had indeed experienced many big scenes with Gongsun Zan, although he didn't know why the man who had been determined not to be here suddenly appeared here - of course, he was sure that that man was the legendary one.
Man, otherwise it would be hard to imagine that any substitute could do three
The sword killed Gongsun Ke, an outstanding son of the Gongsun family. But seeing that the enemy had become morale-boosted and even a little crazy because of the appearance of that man, Gongsun Fan knew that even if the opponent gave up long-range weapons like crossbows, which are very lethal to cavalry,
It can still cause considerable damage to one's own cavalry.
Although the Jizhou soldiers are the elite in Yuan Shao's hands, they are infantry after all, and the White Horse Yi Cong on our side are cavalry. The cost of training a cavalryman is several times that of an infantryman. The instructions only talk about a group of excellent war horses.
The value is higher than the opponent's equipment from head to toe, and being dragged along and buried with the infantry is already a bit of a loss, let alone this situation.
More importantly, Yuan Shao's loss of a large number of Jizhou soldiers may have a certain impact on his rule, but it will not have a fundamental impact, because it is impossible for those powerful families to support a group of outsiders to get involved.
Jizhou, at least not until Yuan Shao falls completely, and even if Yuan Shao falls, it is still unclear whether some families will change.
But if the Gongsun family, which had finally been reorganized, was once again lost, and those alien races that had been completely suppressed by Gongsun Zan with force... Gongsun Fan no longer dared to think about it anymore, it would only make him more timid.
Therefore, he immediately issued a retreat order to Bai Ma Yicong, and the cavalry under Gongsun Ke and even the front army troops under Yan Gang were used by Gongsun Fan as targets to attract the enemy's firepower and anger to protect him.
The core combat force of Gongsun's army is the White Horse Yi Cong. Obviously in Gongsun Fan's view, as long as there are White Horse Yi Cong, the Gongsun Army will still have everything. Otherwise, the entire army will collapse.
Is Gongsun Fan's judgment correct?
It should be said that there is generally no mistake. After all, compared to most of the other units of the Gongsun Army, Baima Yicong is one of the best in the Gongsun Army in terms of combat effectiveness and loyalty to the Gongsun family. He can indeed be regarded as the Gongsun Army.
It is not unreasonable for Gongsun Fan's first reaction to give priority to ensuring the survival of this force.
But many things that seem reasonable are often unacceptable.
It is important to know that in ancient wars, those who were able to take the initiative to stand up when faced with such things as the queen, either had great wisdom and courage, were loyal to the country or the lord, or were desperate, or were doing it for some ulterior purpose, and
If you don’t have such thoughts but are forced to stay and become the queen
As a member of the army, it is natural for him to feel resentment in such a certain death environment as the queen, and it is normal for him to even rebel against him. Therefore, ancient generals were often very cautious when choosing candidates for the queen, and even had to put themselves as their own.
The core personally presided over the rear operations to prevent the complete collapse of the army.
The abandoned sons who were left behind by Gongsun Fan as "cannon fodder" were either mercenaries from foreign races or called Yi Cong, except for a small number of front-line troops from Gongsun's army who had high loyalty to the Gongsun family.
They were the powerful local private armies of Jizhou who were newly incorporated into the army, which meant that most of the remaining troops had little loyalty to the Gongsun family.
Let such a group of people block the gun for the Gongsun family?
It can only be said that although Gongsun Fan has wonderful thoughts, the reality is always the cruelest, especially for those losers.
Even if Yan Gang is still working hard to maintain the crumbling front army, even if the abandoned Gongsun Army cavalry troops are very ideologically aware and shoulder the responsibility of covering the main force's temporary retreat and reorganization, this is doomed to be in vain.
.
Because no one will notice anymore that troops from Yuan Shao's central army are constantly beginning to support the battle on the front line...
"Haha, I, Wen Chou, will accept your Yan Gang's head. Don't be a fool underground!"
Although Wen Chou's voice was still slightly inferior to that of Zhang Sanye, his bold voice still swept across the battlefield like rolling thunder, which not only lowered the morale of the Gongsun Army's former troops who were already at a disadvantage, but also made
As a former army general, Yan Gang's hands and feet became weak, and his originally loud voice dropped several octaves out of thin air.
That was Wen Chou, a general who was as famous as Yan Liang and had an outstanding reputation on the land of Jizhou!
Yan Liang only used three swords to brutally kill Gongsun Ke, a powerful member of Gongsun's army. Although Yan Gang prided himself on his outstanding martial arts, he seemed to be lacking compared to Yan Liang. As for the one in front of him, he
The equally famous Wen Chou?
Yan Gang really couldn't pin his own life on the other party's unworthy reputation.
In fact, when he saw the steel gun dancing in Wen Chou's hand, he had completely given up on that childish idea.
Wen Chou is very strong, not as strong as Yan Liang, but the result is the same.
That is Yan Gang, who said today that his life is about to be in danger here.
To be honest, Yan Gang actually wanted to express his mood at this time by shouting a few farewell words such as "Fuck you, I bought a bag last year, it's super wear-resistant...". After all, no one can see
Maybe you will have a similar feeling when a tall and thick man suddenly plays with you with the unique skill of shaking a flower gun, just like the third master who can embroider and Dian Wei who holds a child...
Well, the former may still have some strange beauty for the third master who has the potential of being a transvestite in this plane (and has been partially developed), but the latter... let us first give it to the police station and the Minors Protection Association
It would be better to call the police or something like that.
However, this obviously cannot be blamed on Wen Chou. In fact, he was originally a tomboy who followed the pure manly route, but no matter how he met Lu Xiaoqiang, who had made rapid progress after being trained by Tong Yuan, his threesomes with Xiaoqiang's children's shoes with Yan Liang ended in disastrous failure, resulting in
The two strong attackers were turned into weak victims by the emperor's attackers.
In order to change this helpless ending, in order to prove that they are still heroic and pure men, the two of them thought hard and finally came up with a method - one person still took the strength route, while the other took the technical route, and then
The two swords combined are like a couple of divine eagles wielding the Jade Girl Su Xin Sword.
It can be said that Wen Chou's martial arts skills are definitely the best example of being broken by Xiaoqiang's children's shoes.
As for the results... Although I am still a little unsure about Xiaoqiang's shoes, taking down Yan Gang or Gongsun Ke is really a killing opportunity.
This is not...
"The enemy general Yan Gang has been captured by me, Wen Boming!"
Gongsun Zan's front army collapsed!
"What's going on with these currents? My horse is stuck!"
"Where does the water flow come from, ah...!!!"
"Damn the wind, I can't open my eyes anymore, cough cough cough..."
Baima Yicong, who was originally turning his horse to prepare to retreat, was also caught off guard by the sudden attack. Although these strategic attacks that appeared inexplicably for them did not cause them much damage, it greatly affected their actions.
Not only were they unable to take advantage of the war horses to evacuate the battlefield immediately, but what was even worse was that the sudden attack frightened the war horses, making the already chaotic team even more chaotic.
"It's really not that difficult..."
Xu You, who was standing behind his family's front army, said proudly to Feng Ji beside him. Behind him were a team of more than 300 strategists, an equal number of Taoist priests and nearly a hundred horseback strategists.
With such a large team of civil servants devoted to the war, I am afraid that even Li Shushi, who now controls two states, would not be able to make such a big effort.
"In front of me, Yuan Benchu, Gongsun Zan is just an incompetent person!"
Seeing the development and changes of the situation, Yuan Shao felt that he could finally express his anger and relax for a while.
only……
"Report! Important military information has arrived!"
Just when Yuan Shao was about to issue the order to counterattack and deliver a fatal blow to Gongsun's army, a horse flew from the rear of Yuan Shao's army. It was holding the token given by Yuan Shao, so no one dared to take it wherever it passed.
Just looking at the anxious look on the messenger's face, it seems that what he brought is not good news...
Yuan Shao couldn't help but frown slightly. (To be continued.)
