Just when Li Yan began to consider sending his personal guards to the northern front to block the battlefield, the Yamazaki cavalry trapped by the river suddenly became confused. It was very slight at first, but the confusion soon became bigger.
The Yamazaki Japanese Japanese were squeezing each other from front to back, and the formation that had been effective in blocking the Han army began to loosen up.
Li Yan noticed this change and took a closer look with his clairvoyance. He suddenly discovered that many Yamatai soldiers appeared on the river bank. They fired arrows at the Yamazaki Japanese on the river bank and kept slashing at the bank.
Killing the Japanese soldiers of the Yamazaki Kingdom caused chaos among the Japanese soldiers of the Yamazaki Kingdom!
"Attack the Yamazaki Japanese Japanese in the north!" Li Yan raised his weapon and roared.
After receiving the order, the personal guards around Li Yan immediately divided into T-shaped formations and rushed fiercely towards the Yamazaki Japanese soldiers on the river bank. Their spears, steel knives, and crossbows sounded life-threatening songs one after another. A large number of Yamazaki Japanese soldiers were here.
A large number of fresh troops disappeared in front of them, which also affected more Yamazaki Japanese Japanese soldiers.
Being attacked by enemies before and after, Ueda Akunari tried his best to stabilize the situation, but his efforts were undermined by the panic squeeze of the Japanese themselves. Even the orders could not be effectively conveyed. Instead, Ueda Akunari's roar exposed himself.
Due to his identity, many Han soldiers noticed the direction of Ueda Qiucheng.
Without a unified order, the flying objects that covered the sky continued to fly to Ueda Akunari's head one after another, taking away the lives of Japanese soldiers from the Yamazaki Kingdom one after another. Although Ueda Akunari was temporarily protected by that person,
It's okay, but this situation won't last long. As long as you make a mistake, Ueda Akira will be shot into a hedgehog and die under the horse.
Finally, Ueda Akunari couldn't bear it anymore and desperately ordered to break out and directly meet the Yamatai army fighting on the outside. This move played into the hands of the Han army. These Yamazaki cavalry who lost their horses were killed by the Yamatai army.
There was not much resistance in front of them. The Yamatai army was divided into battle formations in units of a hundred people. They covered each other and charged at the Yamazaki Japanese soldiers in a staggered manner. They were like sharp scissors, constantly cutting
They cut off the Yamazaki Japanese Japanese soldiers one by one, killing the Yamazaki Japanese Japanese soldiers with countless casualties, and they were almost defeated.
Ueda Akunari and Aoi Sora led thousands of Japanese Japanese soldiers from the Yamazaki Kingdom to fight left and right. They rushed out covered in blood. Although there were no flags, they were quickly noticed by the Han army. Dozens of combat detachments surrounded them, fighting each other.
They covered themselves up and did not fight head-on with them. Instead, they were like breaking waves. When the opponent attacked, they retreated slightly. Once the attack subsided, they pounced on them again and ate them. This made the opponent feel like they were hitting water with all their strength, in vain.
With only a thousand men, Ueda Akunari and Aoi Sora were intercepted, and their plan to break out of the encirclement failed.
This situation soon fell into Li Yan's eyes. He looked at it carefully for a while and found that this was a brand-new infantry warfare method. It was like a wave composed of people, one after another, dispelling the enemy's offensive.
Lose.
If the enemy's attack is compared to an iron fist struck quickly and violently, then this tactic makes the defending side like a constantly undulating wave, using the arc-shaped crests and troughs to make the force of the strike fail and dissolve the enemy's iron fist attack.
Although very conservative, it seems to be very suitable for the defensive side to hit more with less.
It’s just that this kind of tactics requires a very high level of cooperation and tacit understanding among the soldiers, and regular training is also essential, otherwise it will only be self-defeating. It seems that the army in front of us is doing a very good job!
Taking a closer look at their flags, Li Yan discovered that this was actually the Yamatai navy army, numbering more than a thousand people. Li Yan remembered that the commander of this army seemed to be a general named Susano'o from the Saji Kingdom.
But before Li Yan could think too much, the situation on the southern front forced him to shift his attention again. Although he didn't know whether Susano'o's troops attacking from the waterway could defeat Ueda Akinari's army, but if so
In this way, as long as the south side provides more support, everything will change, and the situation on the entire battlefield will improve!
Although Li Yan had good intentions, An Yanlianghe also knew that it would be detrimental to him to continue fighting. When he saw that his most elite troops still could not break through the opponent's defense line, he was furious. Regardless of the dissuasion of the Yu family, he personally led them to
The Han army marched on the western front, and the intensity of the attack suddenly intensified.
The giant ax in Chen Sheng's hand had already chopped off the heads of countless Japanese soldiers from the Yamazaki Kingdom, but the Japanese soldiers from the Yamazaki Kingdom continued to come up, seemingly endlessly, making it impossible to kill without end.
The soldiers who followed Chen Sheng to block the attack had no part of their body that was not stained red with blood. They could not tell the difference between their own, the enemy's, and those from the robe. Even their wounds were so painful that they were just waving the blood in their hands mechanically.
Weapons were used to chop down the Yamazaki Japanese soldiers wearing hats and helmets in front of them.
The Yamazaki Japanese Japanese soldiers in front of them were like wild beasts, rushing upward with all their strength, completely indifferent to the death of the soldiers in front of them. Gradually, there seemed to be more and more people wearing bamboo hats and fewer and fewer helmets on the battlefield, but they
Still insisting on holding the position, fighting to the death and not retreating.
In the face of Chen Sheng's powerful attack power, no one was Chen Sheng's enemy. Unknowingly, Chen Sheng had chopped off the heads of countless Yamazaki Japanese soldiers and rushed into the center of An Yanliang and the escort team.
An Yanliang and his livid face saw this scene, and he suddenly shouted loudly: "Fire the arrow! Fire the arrow for me! Shoot that hellish demonic guy to death!"
"Ah!? Your Majesty, our people are also there to besiege that Han general! If you fire arrows, you will hit your own people!" An Yanliang and a guard beside him reminded in surprise.
"Phew!" Under the disbelieving look in the guard's eyes, An Yanlianghe withdrew the long knife from his body and said coldly and loudly: "Anyone who disobeys orders will die!" Accompanying these words was the guard.
There was a muffled sound of falling to the ground.
No one dared to speak anymore. The archers of Yamazaki Kingdom fired the arrows in their hands row after row. After shooting in front, they fired again in the front. Rows of powerful arrows shot without distinction and enveloped the Japanese soldiers and soldiers of Yamazaki Kingdom.
Chen Sheng, the Han general, and many Japanese people never dreamed that death would come from behind them when they were in the middle of a fierce battle.
Regardless of whether they were enemies or friends, they fell to the ground one after another under this cruel attack. Although the equipment of the Han army was better than that of the Japanese, they were not invulnerable after all. A large number of Han soldiers fell to the ground in a foreign country, and the steel knives in their hands were powerless.
It fell on the ground that had already been stained red with blood, full of strange sadness.
Although this attack was cruel, it was indeed effective. When the Yamazaki archers stopped shooting, the number of Han troops who could stand up to fight had been reduced a lot, and they were quickly scattered by the Yamazaki soldiers. Although many people tried their best
They tried their best to kill the Yamazaki Japanese soldiers, but in the end they couldn't save the entire battlefield situation - the Western Front was lost!
When more than a dozen soldiers rescued Chen Sheng, who had been hit by several arrows and had fallen into a coma, in front of Li Yan, a large number of Yamazaki Japanese soldiers had already rushed through the Han army's defense line, which had sacrificed countless people, and were heading towards Li Yan's commander.
The flag was launched to attack, and some people were going to rescue Ueda Akunari and Aoi Sora who were surrounded.
"Success or failure, all in one fell swoop!"
Li Yan didn't say anything more, he drew out the steel sword from his waist, and then suddenly faced the Japanese soldiers of the Yamazaki Kingdom who were rushing towards him. The last moment finally came, but now the Han army was at an absolute disadvantage.
Just when An Yanlianghe had a slight smile on his face, a piece of earth-shattering news completely froze the smile on An Yanlianghe's face. It turned out that a large number of Han troops appeared behind them!!!
Looking at the victory that was about to be achieved in front of him, An Yanlianghe hesitated on his face. After a while, An Yanlianghe suddenly said in a cold, unwilling and angry tone: "Retreat!" As soon as the words fell, An Yanlianghe ignored the others.
The man rode straight away, causing all the guards around him to follow in panic.
When he saw the Japanese soldiers from the Yamazaki Kingdom retreating like a tide, Li Yan didn't care about anything else and immediately summoned all available Han troops to form a new line of defense. No matter what, he took care of his own side first!
It wasn't until his sworn brother Gan Ning, the naval commander, came over with his troops that Li Yan understood why the Japanese soldiers of the Yamazaki Kingdom gave up the victory they were about to win!
Gan Ning was very relieved to see that Li Yan was safe and sound. However, when the two brothers met, Gan Ning's first words were: "Don't talk about your business. General Huang Zu is in danger. You are now carrying
Give me your people to chase the defeated troops of Yamazaki Kingdom. If you can't get back Anyan Yoshikazu's head, take yours back! Leave this to me!"
Li Yan's face remained unchanged, and after a brief explanation, he asked Gan Ning's army to join in the siege of Ueda Akunari and Aoi. Then Li Yan gathered more than 5,000 people and rode on to rob Ueda Akunari.
The war horses went to chase An Yanlianghe!
After Liao Li, Liu Fu, and Du Wei saw through Hikawa Kyoko's intention to cause mischief, Gan Ning and others formulated a battle plan based on the intelligence sent back by the spies. In this battle plan, after Li Yan covered Susano'o's retreat,
He will go to the Yamazaki Kingdom Japanese soldiers to ambush them on their way back. Wu Anguo will attack the Japanese soldiers at the right time. Once the attack is over, Li Yan will lead his people to cover up the Yamazaki Kingdom Japanese soldiers from behind, but will not engage in a head-on confrontation, which will make Yamazaki
The national soldiers will be in panic.
At the same time, after the main force of the Japanese Japanese from the Yamazaki Kingdom left the camp, Huang Zu would lead five thousand people to capture the already empty camp of An Yanlianghe in the Yamazaki Kingdom. Once An Yanlianghe returned to the camp, he would change the flags in the camp.
, when An Yanliang and his army were stunned, Li Yan gathered his army and launched a general attack, defeating An Yanliang and his army in one fell swoop. This time, after Li Yan changed his plan without authorization, Huang Zu fell into isolation and helplessness.
Horses are not abundant on the Japanese island, so cavalry is an extremely luxurious combat unit. Whether it is the Yamatai army or the captured Yamazaki soldiers, they are not good at riding horses and cannot master riding in a short time. However, among the Han army, there are also
Not everyone can ride a horse and has excellent riding skills, but Li Yan's army is different. This army used to be cavalry and was dismounted because of combat needs. Therefore, only Li Yan's troops can be responsible for pursuit.
