Bai Wang was very angry. He had been suffocating in his heart since he arrived last night. He was angry with Wang Tizhong, resentful of Wang Yien, and now he was also angry with team member Yuan Sanzhong. He asked him to stop the enemy, and he vowed to do so when he went there.
He was trying to coax him, but just when he was getting ready to attack the city, news suddenly came that Yuan Sanzhong had sent reinforcements along the An River thirty miles away and asked for reinforcements.
When attacking a city, he was most afraid of the sudden arrival of reinforcements from the other side. No matter how many troops the other side had, it would cause panic and chaos in his own side. Bai Wang would never allow such a thing to happen when he was attacking the city. He wanted Yuan Sanzhong to block the reinforcements at thirty
Inside and outside, buy him enough time so that he can concentrate on attacking the city without any worries, so when he heard Yuan Sanzhong's request for additional troops, he did not hesitate to send another two thousand troops.
The mixed force of four thousand infantry and cavalry was enough to deal with the two thousand tired troops of the officers and soldiers, so Bai Wang started to attack the city. After discussing with Wang Yien for a long time, he decided to attack from the east city. The reason is very simple. The west gate has to be bypassed, and the south gate blocks the view.
, if the reinforcements of officers and soldiers come from the north, he will not be able to respond in time. The north gate will expose his back and it will be even more dangerous, so let’s go to the east gate.
Unexpectedly, just when Bai Wang was dispatching cannon fodder to carry things to the city, several cavalry from the north came at a gallop: Yuan Sanzhong was defeated!
Damn it! This, this fucking reinforcements were just ten miles away and he was defeated??????
This useless trash! After listening to the spies' report about the details of the battle that had just begun, he immediately yelled angrily. This is a typical example of cleverness being misled by cleverness. If he had insisted on defending the river bank early to establish a defense line or withdrawing from the formation several miles away, the officers and soldiers would not have been so easy.
To defeat him, he didn't even know the depth and didn't dare to act rashly. As a result, this guy pretended to be brave. He thought that the officers and soldiers had no courage to cross the river and went to provoke him. However, he angered the other party. They really came over, but you fucking blocked them.
Can't help it, the result is no longer as simple as a slap in the face, but a loss of head!
However, the scolding has returned. Now that Yuan Sanzhong has been defeated, the officers and soldiers will definitely take advantage of the victory. If he is allowed to attack outside the city, not to mention that his plan to attack the city will be ruined. It is even possible that Wu Sangui in the same city will counterattack from inside and outside.
Make yourself an army.
So Bai Wang decided to suspend the siege and defeat the reinforcements of the officers and soldiers first. Why don't you just have 2,000 cavalry? If my cavalry can't defeat you, I will use the human sea tactic to kill you. So he ordered Wang Yi'en to lead 5,000 troops to support while he besieged the city.
Lives in Wu Sangui.
Wang Yi'en was beaten by Wu Sangui yesterday with more than 500 cavalry. In addition, he used a dirty trick to successfully enter the city, which made him lose face and feel ashamed. Now he had to find his place. After repairing it all night, nearly 10,000 troops were still there.
Can't beat you with two thousand riders?
The combat effectiveness of the Dashun Army is not that bad! Wang Yi'en has been boosting morale along the way, talking about repaying blood debts with blood, showing the power of the Dashun Army, and killing them all. Anyway, his tone is loud and his posture is very murderous.
The momentum is overwhelming.
After only ten miles, they caught up with the 2,000 reinforcements ahead. At the same time, the scouting horses also sent intelligence. The officers and soldiers were ten miles away to the northeast, while Yuan Sanzhong was repairing at a small stone mountain five miles due north. Wang Yi'en ordered all the soldiers and horses to assemble towards Yuan Sanzhong.
A large number of detective horses were sent out to conduct reconnaissance.
Yuan Sanzhong was on a bare stone mountain, a small hill to be exact. At this time, he was gnashing his teeth in a small forest at the foot of the mountain. When he heard that Wang Yi'en was coming, he hurried to greet him. As soon as he saw him, he shouted:
"King of Hell, you have to avenge me!"
"How could the damage be so serious!" Wang Yi'en couldn't help but frown. Yuan Sanzhong's two thousand troops were divided equally between infantry and cavalry. The infantry was completely wiped out and the cavalry only had six or seven hundred cavalry. The rest were either killed or captured or escaped.
Where has it gone?
"It's my fault for underestimating the enemy, and those officers, soldiers and cavalry are too powerful!" Yuan Sanzhong lowered his head with a chuckle, and his face was extremely embarrassed. Wang Yi'en felt the same way: "This is not your hatred alone, it is also against me, the King of Hell!" As he said,
He glanced at Yuan Sanzhong: "The commander is very angry. If we don't make a comeback this time, I'm afraid we will be deeply blamed!"
Yuan Sanzhong sighed, smiled bitterly and shook his head: "It was a mistake and carelessness that led to this tragic defeat. However, the officers, soldiers and cavalry are indeed invincible. Does the King of Hell have any strategies to deal with the enemy?"
"No one else! Heavy soldiers swarmed up and chopped him to death with random swords!" Wang Yien chuckled sinisterly: "Tell me how you were defeated."
Yuan Sanzhong recounted the battle from beginning to end, and did not forget to reiterate that although his tactics were wrong, the cavalry combat effectiveness of the officers and men was really too strong. Wang Yi'en pondered for a long time: "It seems that Wu Sangui must be so strong.
Guan Ning's cavalry is here, but although it is strong, it is still a tired army and it is less than two thousand." As he spoke, he raised his brows slightly and looked towards the far river bank due north (the Yangtze River makes a big bend here and goes east-west). It was already evening when the sky cleared.
: "It may be difficult to match his courage in a head-on battle. What if we also outflank him?"
"What the King of Hell means..." Yuan Sanzhong was startled and asked with squinting eyes: "Use the cavalry to face the enemy head-on, and the infantry to flank it?"
"No, no, no," Wang Yien said with a sinister smile: "The infantry is facing the enemy head-on, and the cavalry is outflanking it." Seeing Yuan Sanzhong's confused look, he quickly added: "Those are all refugees who will die when they die, but they can block the sword and vent their strength for us.
Then you and I will each lead our elite troops to outflank him from both sides. Hehe, I don’t believe that the officers and soldiers can hold on. No matter how powerful his cavalry is, he will have to suffer death if he gets a knife in his waist!"
Seconds! Yuan Sanzhong clapped his fists: "They say that I, Yuan Laosan, have a clever plan and am willing to be defeated in front of Brother Yama today!"
Wang Yi'en grinned and said, "Don't give me too much credit. If we defeat our two brothers today, we can feel proud. If we lose again, hehe, we will become brothers in trouble!"
Thousands of thieves came to the rescue, and the murderous army was naturally detected by the officers and soldiers and reported to Marco. When they heard that there were seven or eight thousand people, everyone's expressions gradually became serious. It was obvious that the thieves wanted to use a large force.
Fighting them hard, if at the peak of his peak, his two thousand cavalry killed him, it would be no problem, but now it is not possible, Ma Ke's subordinates have not slept all night, and the Dongchang Third Battalion is hundreds of miles away without stopping.
So far, they only repaired on the Shun'an River for less than an hour and then started working. Although they can't be said to be exhausted at the moment, facing an army of nearly 10,000 thieves, they know that it is difficult to fight and they can't beat them!
"Commander Ma, are you advancing or retreating?" Tu Yuan asked: "The bandit army has sent so many reinforcements, so the city will be empty. If we don't go directly to the city, maybe we can cooperate with General Wu to kill the white bandits and retreat."
Or it’s hard to say whether we can find an opening to enter the city.”
"If you tell me, just kill them. We are all cavalry. It doesn't matter how many thieves there are. They can't stop us and they can't surround us..." Lao Jiu kept mumbling. Marco lowered his head and thought for a moment, shaking his head slightly.
: "We know nothing about the terrain outside the city, and we know nothing about the strength of the rebel army. In addition, it is getting dark and we cannot take risks. Even if we are lucky enough to rush to the city, we may not be able to enter the city, and we may even be trapped in a tight siege.
among".
Lao Jiu was about to speak again, but Tu Yuan stopped him with his eyes. Jia Waixiong interrupted: "If you don't advance, retreat. If you want to retreat, retreat early, otherwise we will have to cross the river when they come to kill us, and we will be in trouble." Ma Ke nodded but had a look on his face.
Kuse: "If we retreat to the north bank of the Shun'an River and think about coming over again, it won't be as easy as before. In this case, unless the army comes from behind, we will only be blocked by them for thirty miles outside the city and unable to reinforce General Wu."
.
This... Tu Yuan, Jia Waixiong, and Lao Jiu looked at each other and couldn't make up their minds for a moment. It would be too risky to go in and turn a blind eye to the situation there. If you retreat, it would be difficult to come back. If you fight, you won't be able to beat!
How can this be done!
"Fuck, why are we so stupid? If the little governor is here, there must be something we can do!" Jia Wai stamped his feet heroically!
Tu Yuanchang breathed out: "With the temper of the little governor, he should be able to fight, and it would be better to strike first..." Before he finished speaking, Ma Ke next to him was startled, and then let out a cry, and everyone was frightened by him.
Everyone jumped and looked sideways, but Ma Ke ignored the strange looks of everyone and slapped his head hard with both hands: "Strike first is the strongest...Strike first is the strongest, strike first to be stronger against us, let it not be shallow!"
"What do you mean? Can you explain it more clearly?" Lao Jiu shouted, but the three of them really couldn't understand.
