The Fengyu Coalition Army launched a counter-siege against the Zhen Army that was besieging the Anhuan Coalition Army. This caused the Zhen Army to panic and gave the Anhuan Coalition Army, which was on the verge of despair, a glimmer of hope.
After the Fengyu coalition forces from all directions completed the encirclement, 40,000 Fengyu cavalry led by Shangguan Yuanrang and Shi Xiao immediately launched a charge against the Zhenjun camp.
These two Fengyu warriors broke into the Zhenjun camp, as if they were entering an uninhabited land. The 40,000 cavalrymen were like a whirlwind, leaving behind countless Zhenjun corpses wherever they passed.
Shangguan Yuanrang and Shi Xiao forced their way into the Zhen army from the outside, and the lightning-fast cavalry troops rushed straight towards the Anhuan coalition camp.
The officers and soldiers of the Anhuan coalition who saw their flag clearly were filled with surprises, and people far away began to shout: "Brothers of the Feng Army, we are here! We are our own!"
Now the flag of the Anhuan coalition has been lost, and the military appearance is in chaos. The soldiers are all gray and disgraced, and the armor on their bodies is full of blood and dirt and has lost its luster. If they don't shout, Shangguan Yuanrang and Shi Xiao
You may not even be able to recognize them as one of your own.
After hearing the news, Yue Ze and Li Xin were extremely excited. They rushed over at a trot. Before they could get out of the crowd of their own soldiers, they pulled their necks and shouted, asking: "Who is the general in front?"
Shangguan Yuanrang did not see these two monarchs, but when someone asked, he shook off the blood on his three-pointed two-edged sword and replied to the crowd: "I am the general of the Feng Kingdom, Shangguan Yuanrang!"
Oops! Upon hearing the words Shangguan Yuanrang, Yue Ze and Li Xin couldn't help but look at each other, and tears fell down in unison.
They had never felt that Shangguan Yuanrang's name was so affectionate before. The two monarchs squeezed out with tears and stretched out their hands and shouted: "General Yuanrang, save me!"
Who are you? Shangguan Yuanrang sat on the horse, stretched his neck to take a closer look, and almost laughed out loud. Now Yue Ze and Li Xin are quite miserable. There are black and white lines on their faces. I don’t know how old they are.
I haven’t washed my face, my eyes are black and sunken, my royal attire is even worse, it’s damaged in countless places, I have big holes and small eyes, my hair is unkempt, my gait is shambling, I look like a beggar, where can I find it?
It has a little bit of the majesty of a monarch.
It seems that the Anhuan and Huan armies were really badly beaten by the Zhen army, otherwise Yue Ze and Li Xin, who were so focused on appearance, would not have fallen to this level.
Shangguan Yuanrang shook his head secretly and sighed. He held his sword in his hands on horseback and said: "It turns out that it is Prince An and Prince Huan. Please forgive me for wearing my armor and not being able to dismount from the horse to salute."
Yue Ze and Li Xin spent a lot of effort and finally squeezed out from the crowd of the two armies.
One of these two men stood on the side of Shangguan Yuan Rang, raised his hand high, firmly pulled the reins of his horse, and said repeatedly: "General Yuan Rang, you are finally here! Rescue me quickly!"
Shangguan Yuanrang was brave enough, but he was not brave enough to lead two princes back to the Zhen army's encirclement. He had no eyesight with swords and guns. If something happened, how could he explain it to An and Huan?
He pulled on the reins, trying to free their hands, but Yue Ze and Li Xin held on tightly and refused to let go.
Shangguan Yuanrang was helpless and said with a wry smile: "Your Highnesses, please be patient. The two armies of Fengyu have surrounded the Zhenjun Army. Your Highnesses can just wait here for the good news. Now, the general will turn around and attack the enemy again."
For a while!”
The implication was that they should let go quickly and not delay his time to kill the enemy. But as soon as Yue Ze and Li Xin heard that Shangguan Yuanrang was leaving, they held his reins tighter and said in unison: "
General, don't leave! I hope the general will stay to protect you!"
The two of them grabbed Shangguan Yuanrang and refused to let go. If Shangguan Yuanrang had to stay to protect them, if it had been someone else, he would have kicked them out one by one, but these two are the kings of the same country.
Sir, no matter how much you look down upon Shangguan Yuanrang, you still have to be wary of him.
Being worn down by the two of them and having no choice but to dismount, Shangguan Yuanrang had no choice but to dismount, and turned around to order the wind cavalry to follow Shi Xiao's command and follow Shi Xiao to continue to attack the enemy.
Shi Xiao could also see now that Yue Ze and Li Xin were frightened. They grabbed Shangguan Yuan as a life-saving straw and could not let him go again.
Seeing that Shangguan Yuanrang, who was so arrogant, was being beaten to the point of helplessness by the two kings, Shi Xiao secretly laughed in his heart, gave an order, and led the cavalry from Fengyu and Yu to fight back to the enemy's formation.
Seeing that the Fengyu cavalry went back to kill them again, while the Anhuan coalition troops stood motionless like wooden piles, Shangguan Yuanrang's nose was almost crooked with anger. He turned around and shouted loudly: "Are you still standing there?"
What are you doing here? If you don’t break out now, are you still waiting for the Zhen army to besiege you?"
A few words awakened the dreamer, and even Yue Ze and Li Xin nodded in sudden realization. If the Zhen army was really frightened by the Fengyu coalition forces outside, they would probably abandon the perimeter and risk their lives to find the Anhuan coalition forces.
Fight together and perish together.
At the reminder of Shangguan Yuanrang, the Anhuan coalition forces followed the Fengyu cavalry and began to charge into the Zhenjun camp.
The current battlefield is more than just a mess. There is fighting on the outside, and there is also fighting on the inside. The Zhen army is under attack from both inside and outside, and the situation is already precarious.
The arrival of the reinforcements was a shot in the arm for the soldiers of the Anhuan coalition. The already exhausted 200,000 remnant troops suddenly burst out of vitality and followed the Fengyu cavalry and killed them in the Zhenjun camp.
He found a bloody path and forced his way out.
When the Anhuan coalition forces were all out of trouble, the Fengyu coalition forces no longer had any of their own men in the Zhen army, and they no longer had any worries about attacking. The two armies set up trebuchets on the outside and launched a heavy attack on the Zhen army camp.
There were trebuchets on the outside and fierce attacks by the Fengyu Allied Forces on the inside. The Zhen army, which had already been in chaos, was no longer able to support it and collapsed inwards.
Now the situation on the battlefield suddenly changed. The Fengyu Allied Forces occupied the position that originally belonged to the Zhen Army, while the Zhen Army retreated to the position that originally belonged to the Anhuan Allied Forces.
Even the military strength of both sides is roughly the same as at that time. Now, after excluding the dead and wounded, there are only more than 200,000 soldiers left by the Zhen Army, while the Fengyu Coalition Army has close to 400,000 troops. This does not include the 200,000 troops of the Anhuan Coalition Army.
At this point in the battle, the Fengyu Allied Forces have firmly controlled the situation on the battlefield. Just like the Zhenjun's choice at the beginning, the Fengyu Allied Forces did not continue to attack fiercely, but also chose to be trapped, intending to trap the Zhenjun in their own encirclement.
As the saying goes, in the thirty years of Hedong and the thirty years of Hexi, the Zhen army's tactics of besieging the Anhuan coalition were exactly copied by the Fengyu coalition.
Outside the battlefield, Tang Yin and Lingshuang met Yue Ze and Li Xin, who had not seen each other for a long time. When they saw Tang Yin and Lingshuang, the latter two seemed to have met their relatives. They both stepped forward and took Tang Yin's hand, without waiting to speak.
, Yue and Li were already in tears, unable to make a sound.
They both thought that they were dead this time, and even wrote the suicide note designating the candidate for the throne. Unexpectedly, the situation suddenly changed, and the Fengyu coalition forces descended from the sky. At the most critical moment, they relieved the Anhuan coalition forces. This made Yue Yue
For the first time, Ze and Li Xin experienced the feeling of surviving a disaster.
The two of them were beyond words to express their gratitude to Tang Yin and Ling Shuang for helping them in such a desperate situation. At this time, they could not utter a single word of excitement, and their hearts were filled with all kinds of emotions, including excitement, excitement, humiliation and bitterness.
Tang Yin could understand the mood of the two of them. He patted the hands of Yue Ze and Li Xin respectively and said: "The two brothers have suffered these past few days! Since receiving the letters from the two brothers, I and Sister Ling have been
I led my army to rush towards Canglin, but the journey was long and we were still a few days late. Fortunately, the two royal brothers are safe and sound, so I can feel relieved."
"It's great if you can come! It's great if you can come!" Yue Ze and Li Xin nodded repeatedly, raising their arms from time to time and wiping their tears with their sleeves.
"I believe the two brothers are hungry, right? I have asked people to prepare wine and food, and they will be delivered later." Even if the stars are given to Yue Ze and Li Xin, the moon is not as rich as giving them a table.
banquet.
Sure enough, after hearing Tang Yin say that wine and food had been prepared, Yue Ze and Li Xin felt hungry and their internal organs were churning.
The two men did not want to elaborate on their gratitude to Tang Yin. They also said that on the battlefield, the soldiers of the Fengyu Allied Forces had begun to loudly persuade the trapped 200,000 Zhen troops to surrender.
In Gu Anmin's dictionary, there is never a word "surrender".
He suppressed the anger in his chest and ordered the whole army to ignore the Fengyu coalition's persuasion to surrender. If the other party did not take the initiative to attack, his own side should not attack rashly. The whole army should recharge their batteries and wait until night to break out with all their strength.
If the siege of the Anhuan coalition forces by the Zhen army was an iron barrel formation, then the current siege of the Zhen army by the Fengyu coalition forces is an iron plate formation.
The soldiers who were placed in the innermost position and had direct contact with the Zhen Army were all Feng Jun. Tang Yin made such an arrangement because he did not trust the combat effectiveness of the Jade Army, fearing that the Jade Army would give the Zhen Army a chance to break through.
Behind the Feng Army are the large weapons of the Feng Yu Allied Forces, mainly trebuchets and arrow towers. Looking further back is the Jade Army camp.
Although the Jade Army did not have direct contact with the Zhen Army, Tang Yin did not let the Jade Army idle. He dug trenches and built earthen fences to build a second line of defense behind the Feng Army, which also served as a double insurance.
If the Zhen Army wanted to break out of the encirclement, they would not only have to withstand the attacks of trebuchets and archery towers, but they would also have to break through the Feng Army's defense line, and then face the Jade Army who had completed their fortifications, which would be even more difficult.
That night, under Gu Anmin's order, 200,000 Zhen troops launched a breakout.
This battle was extremely difficult for the Zhen Army. The shield array deployed by the Feng Army on the outside was like a layer of iron armor, blocking countless Zhen Army troops. The crossbow arrows fired from the shield array were like raindrops, coupled with the trebuchets throwing
The stone bullets and the arrow formations fired from the arrow towers both caused great damage to the Zhen army.
Often the Zhenjun in the front fought desperately to break away from the Fengjun's shield formation, but when he looked back, there was no one behind him. The soldiers in the rear were all shot back by the falling stone bullets and arrows. The Zhenjun, who lacked stamina, thought
It is basically impossible to tear open the Feng Army's defense line.
