Chapter 954: Reinforcement

It was about midnight on the seventh day of the eleventh lunar month, near the Chou hour, when nearly 20,000 Wei troops crossed the unknown river and attacked the Korean camp on the west side of the river bank at night.

Under the pitch-black night sky, the Han army's camp with colorful bonfires was as eye-catching as a torch in the darkness, so that the Wei army who crossed the river from various parts of the river had no trouble finding the direction of the Han army's camp from several landing points.

Gathered together, they rushed towards the Wei army camp like a torrent.

In fact, the Green Crows who crossed the river early did not eliminate all the patrolling Korean soldiers. Moreover, the patrolling Korean soldiers who had not been assassinated by the Green Crows were also being attacked by more and more Wei soldiers.

When they arrived at the Korean military camp, they noticed something was wrong and hurriedly sent out an early warning signal.

However, it was too late.

Because of this long-planned attack, the Wei army had no reservations.

The Wei soldiers ate all the food on the day before setting off, which made every Wei soldier clearly understand the nature of the attack - they had no way out!

In this case, the warnings of several groups of Korean sentries could not shake the will of the Wei soldiers, because they had no way out, even if they faced the most dangerous situation, they had no choice but to face it.

"kill--!"

Knowing that they had no way out, the Wei army unleashed a powerful fighting force that frightened the Korean soldiers from the very beginning.

When the camp gate on the east side of the Han army's camp was opened by the Green Crows, Wei soldiers poured into the camp like a tide, killing everyone they saw. The Korean defenders who came to the camp to rescue were retreating steadily.

After that, the Wei army ignored the remaining Korean soldiers in the west camp and gathered people to rush to the middle camp of the Han camp. Immediately, Zhai Huang attacked the north camp and Sun Shuke attacked the south camp. Nearly 20,000 Wei troops simultaneously attacked the west camp of the Han camp.

Camp, North Camp, and South Camp. If the three Korean generals Baoyuan, Jin Mao, and Feng Ting had not come forward to take command in time, the Korean army might have faced a defeat in the first wave of the Wei army's offensive.

"The Wei army's offensive... is so fierce!"

Immediately, generals such as Bao Yuan, Jin Mao, Feng Ting and others felt the powerful combat effectiveness of the Wei army, as well as the intimidating momentum of the Wei army that was advancing and never retreating.

To be fair, Jin Yao, Bao Yuan and others have been fighting against the Wei State for so long and have encountered several armies of the Wei State. Except for Wei General Jiang Bi's Northern Third Army, they have never encountered such a ferocious Wei army.

More importantly, the Northern Army under Wei General Jiang Bi was only ferocious, and the rest of the soldiers were not as well trained as the Korean army in terms of weapons and equipment; but the Wei army in front of them was ferocious, well-trained, and well-equipped.

Excellent, far better than the three armies of the North.

That Wei soldier looked like an evil beast in human skin, his eyes glowing with ferocious light, as if he wanted to tear all the enemies in front of him into pieces.

"Team Ran Teng...charge!"

"Xiang Liqiu...charge!"

"The Gongying Team...charge!"

In the middle camp of the Han camp, one after another Wei army's thousand-man troops launched a charge towards the Han army's formation without hesitation.

The sword and shield soldiers of the Wei army who rushed in the front row, brandishing heavy shields and sharp swords, rushed into the defense line of the Korean infantry, smashing the defense line to pieces.

The Korean swordsmen, this kind of light infantry, finally exposed their weak side in the current terrain where the battlefield space is not ample - perhaps because they wear light armor, they are indeed more agile than the Wei army's heavy infantry.

, but the problem is, in this crowded environment, where do they get the space to move around?

On the contrary, in this environment, Wei's heavy infantry exploded with far more powerful dominance than on the open battlefield.

Hitting with shields and slashing with swords, relying on their heavy and strong armor, the Wei sword and shield soldiers used their own advantages to completely suppress the Korean infantry.

"Fire the arrow! Fire the arrow!"

A Korean general pointed at the melee battlefield in front of him and shouted at the top of his lungs.

Upon hearing this general's order, the Korean crossbowmen under his command looked at each other.

Because the chaotic battlefield that appeared in front of them at this moment was not the past two armies neatly arranged to fight, but a melee. You win by me, and I win by you. If the entire battlefield is covered with arrow rain, there will definitely be

An accidental injury to one's own soldiers occurred.

What's more important is that the sword and shield soldiers of the Wei army are all heavily armored and have high defense against arrows and crossbows. As long as they are not hit by Han crossbows at close range, they can continue to fight with the rain of arrows.

But the sword soldiers of the Korean army did not have this confidence. The light armor they wore could not block the crossbow bolts of their own crossbowmen.

Under this situation, the crossbowmen of the Korean army could not help but be afraid of shooting at areas with many soldiers on both sides, so as to avoid large-scale accidental damage to friendly troops.

Under this situation, the offensive of the Wei army's sword and shield soldiers became more and more fierce. Even if the Han general Bao Yuan personally commanded it, the entire defense line would inevitably be torn apart by the Wei soldiers.

"Damn it! I can't get through!"

A Korean general with a thousand men cursed hatefully.

"..."

Bao Yuan said nothing, frowning as he stared at the chaotic battlefield ahead.

It has to be said that this attack by the Wei army was premeditated, and the Wei army had a clear division of labor among themselves. Some were responsible for intercepting the Korean army, and some were responsible for setting fire to the camp. The two-pronged approach did not leave a way for the Korean army to retreat, nor did it

Without leaving any way for one's own side to retreat, it seemed as if they were willing to fight the Korean army for 300 rounds even if they were in a sea of ​​fire.

"Bang--"

A burning military tent collapsed, and the burning tent blocked the path of a group of Wei soldiers.

However, this group of Wei soldiers did not seem to see the flames in front of them. They used their shields to protect their faces and chests and rushed through the sea of ​​​​fire.

During this period, several unlucky Wei soldiers were pressed to the ground by their tents that collapsed due to burning, but even so, these Wei soldiers still had no intention of shrinking back in fear.

This made Bao Yuan once again confirm how ferocious the Wei army in front of him was.

The fighting in the middle camp lasted for more than half an hour. Although the Wei army failed to really capture the middle camp, the Korean soldiers could not drive away the Wei soldiers who entered the camp. The soldiers of the two sides were in a stalemate.

Only the fire in the middle camp grew stronger and stronger, so that by the end of the battle, the soldiers on both sides were literally in a sea of ​​fire.

"General!"

Jin Fu's deputy general Qing Yao led a group of infantry to Bao Yuan's position, wiped the stains on his face, and said anxiously: "These Wei soldiers are crazy! They risked their lives by setting fire to the camp.

The fire in the camp will be out of control!"

Bao Yuan frowned and glanced around the camp that was on fire, and said in a deep voice: "Order the entire army to withdraw from the camp! ...Fight a decisive battle with the Wei army in the wilderness outside the camp!"

"A decisive battle outside the camp?" Qingyao looked at Baoyuan in surprise and asked in astonishment: "Will the Wei army follow our army to a decisive battle outside the camp? They succeeded in the sneak attack and burned down our camp, so they should retreat.

Bar?"

"..." Baoyuan glanced at Qingyao and said nothing.

Will the Wei army be content with burning his barracks?

What a joke!

That Wei Gongzi Runchu deliberately planned to move the cavalry from the camp away from the mountain in order to burn down his Korean army's camp here?

Bao Yuan has no doubt that the purpose of dispatching the entire Wei army in the Wei Qiu area is to defeat their Korean army.

This is the only chance for this Wei army at the moment. If this army retreats as soon as possible and is just satisfied with burning down the Korean camp, then the more than 20,000 Korean cavalry who are waiting on the east side of Wei Qiu will learn about the camp.

After being attacked and sending troops to help, the Wei army lost even its only chance to recover from its disadvantage.

Facts have proved that Baoyuan's guess was correct.

In about half an hour that followed, when the Korean soldiers abandoned the camp and moved to the wilderness outside the camp, the Wei soldiers pursued them so closely that the two armies were almost fighting each other.

Move to the wilderness outside the camp.

This may be the most chaotic battle between Shangdang Han Army and King Su Army so far. Both armies have no so-called formations. The northern suburbs, southern suburbs, and western suburbs are full of Korean soldiers and Wei soldiers fighting each other.

Chaotic situation.

At this time, the entire Korean camp was on fire, as if it was acting as lighting on the battlefield.

About 30,000 Korean soldiers and nearly 20,000 Wei army surprise troops fought from late at night to dawn, leaving only corpses everywhere. The mountains and fields were filled with the corpses of the two soldiers, and the land was dyed red with their blood.

Both Bao Yuan and Zhao Hongrun were shocked by the tenacity of the opponent's soldiers.

When it was almost midnight, the Han and Wei armies on this battlefield still had no winner.

However, it is undeniable that the Korean army has gradually shown its weakness. On the other hand, the Wei army is still fierce and unstoppable despite fighting fiercely for several hours.

"To actually push our army to this point..."

Seeing that his own army was gradually showing signs of defeat, Bao Yuan looked at the Wei army's main formation in the distance with burning eyes, looking at the royal flag of "Wei Su Wangrun" that had been erected there at an unknown time.

It was clear that the Han army had more than 30,000 infantry and more than 20,000 cavalry besieging nearly 20,000 Wei troops in the Wei Qiu area, but the Wei master cleverly used a trick to trick the tiger away from the mountain and deceive more than 20,000 cavalry, and then led nearly 20,000 more cavalry.

The Wei army attacked the Korean army camp at night and forced 30,000 Korean troops into such a desperate situation.

Even though he is a tyrant, he still admires that Wei Gongzi Run.

"...It's a pity that it ends here."

Bao Yuan turned his head and glanced at the north of the battlefield, only to see a cloud of dust rising vaguely in the north - it was the flying dust raised by thousands of Korean cavalry as they marched towards the battlefield here.

It turned out that after realizing that he had been tricked last night, Bao Yuan quickly sent his cavalry to ask for help from the more than 20,000 cavalry sent to the east of Wei Qiu. After several hours, he finally waited for thousands of Korean cavalry to march quickly.

Come to support.

These thousands of cavalry who came to help, combined with the surviving Korean infantry here, were enough to defeat Wei Gongzi Run's army.

"That's it, Mr. Wei Run. However, there is no need to be ashamed of this defeat. Both you and the Wei army under your command can be said to be one of the few formidable enemies that I have encountered in my lifetime.

…”

Bao Yuan murmured to himself.

From the side, his guard heard Bao Yuan's muttering, and turned to look at his general with some curiosity. Out of the corner of his eye, he inadvertently caught sight of a fire suddenly appearing in the direction of Gao Lang in the southwest, and there was a faint light in the sky above.

Fire smoke rises.

"Gao Lang? How could..."
