Chapter 28: The sun will come, and the knife will cut it
As the battle on the left flank of the two armies gradually intensified, the battle between the Bing Army and the Liang Army on the right wing also began.
The troops fighting in the Liang army were Xu Rong and Guo Si. Under the pressure of Chen Chong's approaching army, they both chose to give up supporting the left wing and invariably pushed their troops eastwards, on a front that was nearly ten miles long.
The people on Hongguyuan launched an attack.
Among the 50,000 knights of the Liang Army, about 20,000 of them were in these two groups. Once they started galloping, they were like an endless black tide rolling over from the dragon's head. They made a few waves beside Qingliang Mountain, and soon
It ran toward the plain again fiercely, and stirred up ripples under the Honggu Plain. That was the beginning of the fighting. Gradually, the sound of fighting began to evaporate, spreading from the front line to the entire military formation.
The civilian men recruited from Bingzhou were setting up tents and fences on Hongguyuan. When they heard the sound, they couldn't help but raise their heads and look into the distance, trying to see the battle ahead. For them, this day was
The day that changed their destiny, even as civilians, they wanted to witness the success or failure of the war with their own eyes. Unfortunately, most people could only see the endless heads of their own side, and the sound of fighting in the distance seemed to come out of the ground.
Yes, only the civilians who camped for Chen Chong at the highest point could see the general scene.
The first one to launch the offensive was naturally Xu Rong. Since Dong Zhuo came to power, his cavalry has been the most outstanding in combat, and even Chen Chong himself has suffered many hardships. In this charge, their most elite armored knights still charged in front, regardless of Hong Kong.
On the relatively steep slope between Guyuan and Longshouyuan, even though they were covered in iron armor, these horses still leaped up as if they were walking on flat ground. Everyone who faced them directly on the plain was stunned, thinking that they were heavenly beings and that what they were riding on were
Tianma.
On the first day of the new year on the plains, these knights had no intention of stopping and resting. They waved their long swords among the infantry, and the needles stabbed the crowd mercilessly, and they were soon soaked with blood. At this time, the soldiers on the plains were like a dream.
When they first woke up, they stabbed back with their spears. Liang Ren's armor was thick and could not be pierced, so they stabbed his mounts instead, forcing them to dismount and fight without relying on the momentum of the horses.
Leading this group of knights was Wang Chang. Wang Chang was a rare Liaodong native in the Liang army. Because of his bravery in battle and being from Xu Rong's hometown, he was promoted by Xu Rong to be the vanguard's dubo. At this time, he fought for a while.
, found that the reinforcements behind them had not come up yet. This caused a great deal of pressure on them, and many of their comrades' horses were stabbed to death by the soldiers. Only he was different. He charged back and forth among the soldiers for several rounds, causing the horses to sweat profusely.
I was so tired that I was frothing at the mouth and couldn't run at all.
At this point, Wang Chang had no choice but to jump off his horse, fight with his comrades while retreating, and gather with the reinforcements behind him.
Xu Rong has always taken the lead, and at this time, he was in the Xiandeng tribe, directing the troops to attack the plains to find the weak points of the merging army. Originally, Wang Chang had attacked Hongguyuan, and he was quite happy, but not long after, Wang Chang was suppressed again
When he came back, Xu Rong's expression changed, and he called Wang Chang to him and asked, "Why did you retire?"
Wang Chang answered honestly: "If the horse cannot stand the fight, it will not retreat!"
Unexpectedly, after he said this, Xu Rong actually asked someone to bring him a red horse and said to him: "This is my spare BMW. It has the same power as my commonly used Oolong colt. I will borrow this horse."
Give it to you, can you fight for me again?"
Wang Chang looked at the red horse and liked it very much. He immediately promised: "This horse is very good. I will ride it to the Yuan Po Army!"
He praised the red horse repeatedly. Xu Rong didn't care about it, and sent some more knights to him, so that they could go to Hongguyuan immediately despite the rain of arrows.
When he charged into battle again, everyone on Hongguyuan noticed him. Wang Chang was wearing the battle armor awarded by Xu Rong. The lining was a red military uniform, and the outside was covered with Mingguang armor painted red. Now he was riding a red war horse.
Like a ball of fire, it reflects the rays of the sun and is particularly dazzling.
The rain of arrows still couldn't stop him, but when he boarded Hongguyuan, thanks to the war horse Shenjun, it still had spare power and accelerated into the enemy's formation. Two soldiers from the merging army came closer, each holding a long sword.
They tried to pierce the horse with their spears, but unexpectedly, the horse was too fast. It turned around abruptly, and before the two of them could react, they saw Wang Chang, who was turning sideways, stabbing him with his spear.
The man who was stabbed only wore a layer of leather armor, which could not withstand such a puncture force. Suddenly, with a pop, the tip of the spear penetrated the abdomen. Wang Chang felt his wrist tighten, and knowing that he had gone in, he quickly lifted it up.
There was a snap, and the pole had broken. He quickly pulled out his knife and hacked the other man to death, grabbed two spears, and went back to fight.
The enemy here was the Qin Yilu tribe. One of the military commanders saw Wang Chang being so brave and immediately shouted to the soldiers: "Don't use spears, use armor-piercing arrows!" Wang Chang immediately stared at him and joined the soldiers.
While he was still looking for the crossbow, he took off the three-stone bow from the saddle, jumped off the horse, stood on the ground, and aimed at the military commander who was speaking.
Seeing Wang Chang's reaction, the military commander suddenly felt fear in his heart, and was about to hide himself. Unexpectedly, Wang Chang moved faster. He let go of his string with a thunderbolt, and the military commander fell down as if struck by lightning.
, and the soldiers on the side had just found the crossbow machine and were about to shoot, but they saw that Wang Chang had already gone to another place on horseback.
The nearly 100-step merging army had no command and was quickly dispersed by the swarming Liang people. Seeing that the tribe had established a firm foothold on the Honggu Plain, Xu Rong immediately went to the plain to watch Chen Chong's arrangements in person.
When he saw Chen Chong's two revolutionary flags planted on a hill five miles away from him, his heart was filled with excitement. Wang Chang, who was waiting for his order, encouraged him: "A horse is worthy of a hero. I will give this horse to you!" Wang Chang was overjoyed when he heard this and stepped forward to thank him. However, Xu Rong waved his hand and said, "Don't be lazy. Today's war is far from over!"

Even if he saw Chen Chong's main formation, Xu Rong was not in a hurry to break through the formation. Instead, he remembered the situation during the Guangcheng War. That time he went deep into the formation alone to try to kill Sun Jian, but was outflanked by Sun Jian's superior force.
The success before the battle fell short. This time he kept his lesson in mind and kept driving the merging fronts from the north and south of Hongguyuan, and led the army from the rear to Hongguyuan, intending to wait for the time to be mature enough before striking the fatal blow.<
/p>
Seeing that more and more Liang people were rushing to Hongguyuan, they gradually spread from a point to the north and south into a line, and that line gradually turned into a black tide similar to that in Longshouyuan. Chen Chong looked at this scene, his face
There is no sign of panic. As soon as he reaches the battlefield, his heart will feel unprecedentedly peaceful. This is an instinct he has developed during these years of war. Only by being more peaceful and unmoved by external things can he make the most correct decisions.
decision.
There were three people watching the situation with him, namely Xun You, his servant, and Wu Yu and Tian Zhao whom he met during the Battle of Yuanshui. Chen Chong transferred them from Liu Bei's army in the early spring and asked Xu Shu to teach them.
They read and write.
The two young men looked at the gold and iron horses in the plain, and were already petrified by the murderous atmosphere on the battlefield. Xun You chased the enemy's flag, and after vaguely distinguishing that Guo Bang's troops were also rushing to the plain, he smiled at Chen Chong
Said: "Ting Jian, what a coincidence, it seems that they have placed their treasure on you." The implication is that Liang Jun plans to execute the battle here, which is completely different from the main attack direction chosen by Chen Chong.
"This is not a bad thing." Chen Chong judged the number of enemy troops in this attack and replied to Xun You: "My original intention is to use the lower Sichuang against the upper Sichuang to sharpen their energy, and the upper Siguo to fight against the middle Siji to break their courage and keep the middle ones.
Si to Si, the final word is that they will attack here mainly and integrate my ideas." After that, he asked Wu Yutianzhao to come over and let them convey what he just said to the troops of each department, and asked Qin Yilu's troops to be divided into six groups to pass through the high ground in sequence.
The Quasi Department went to reorganize the front between Linghuyuan Department and Xu Huang Department.
When the two teenagers saw that their coach was motionless, Xun You smiled and nodded to them. The panic in his chest finally dissipated a little, and he ran down the hill in a hurry.
Seeing the two people's backs disappearing into the crowd, Xun You smiled, turned his head and looked at Chen Chong, and saw that he was looking to the south. There, the Huns and Zhang Ji's tribe were fighting fiercely, but they were too far away to see the specific scene clearly.
No one could be seen, only four long gray and black dragons could be seen vaguely circling in the sky, making contact and then spreading apart. Further to the west, nothing could be seen, where Liu Bei was attacking fiercely. p>
Xun You thought for a moment and finally swallowed the words in his mouth. In his opinion, Chen Chong's words were entirely to appease the morale of the army. The battlefield is not a horse race, the situation is ever-changing, and the slightest mistake can reverse the victory or defeat. If the Liang army is at this time
With a desperate move, Hong Guyuan's right army was defeated in one fell swoop, and Liu Bei's left army won a great victory. The battle line was stretched so long, but the Liang army with more numbers had an advantage, not to mention Chen Chong's personal victory in every battle.
The prestige serves as the soul flag in the army. Once it fails, the consequences will be disastrous.
Five miles away, the Liang Army's cavalry was regrouping, apparently accumulating strength and preparing to launch another offensive to break through the front line. Seeing this scene, Chen Chong was unmoved. He still had a reserve army at his disposal.
, Zhang Fei is leading them to stay in the Yanming Pond in Bailuyuan, always ready for battle.
But now the best opportunity is far from being reached. Chen Chong thought that he still didn't know whether the other party had any time to prepare.
For Xu Rong and Guo Bang, who have already established a foothold in Hongguyuan, there is indeed such an idle child.
Before launching the charge, Xu Rongbu lit a bonfire on the plain and threw wolf dung to burn it. The flames were not bright during the day, but the white smoke clouds rose, and the scorching sun quickly coated it with a layer of golden brilliance, as if there were many places between heaven and earth.
There is a little gold thread connection.
That was the signal to contact Feng Qiyuan Shang Liangqi.
