Chapter 134: Heavy as a Mountain, Stable as a Mountain (2)
"Raise your shield!"
"drink"
"push!"
"drink"
"Swing the knife!"
"drink"
The forward Wei soldiers of the Dangshan camp, under the command of the commanding general, advanced neatly and calmly.
The pace of these Wei soldiers was quite steady and their strength was astonishing. Zi Cheyu saw more than once that the Chu soldiers under his command were no match for their opponents despite their strength.
And every time the weapons of these Wei soldiers were blocked with shields, what followed were the cold blades of those Wei soldiers.
These monsters...aren't they tireless?
Zi Cheyu thought in horror.
He had never been so afraid of an army, even when he faced the Wei soldiers of the Junshui Army a while ago.
In his opinion, the reason why the Wei soldiers of the Junshui Army at that time were able to repel the 60,000 Chu army was simply because they held on to the impregnable Wei camp.
But now, after seeing the terrifying killing ability of the Dangshan army's Wei soldiers, he realized that the quality of the Wei soldiers was definitely far superior to that of the Chu soldiers.
He muttered to himself, wondering why the shields in the hands of those Wei soldiers were so strong.
However, after thinking about it carefully, he realized that although the overall national strength of Wei State was not as good as Chu State, Wei State invested a lot of money in military equipment. Unlike Chu State, the princes and nobles of Chu State would rather pile up gold and silver treasures.
He had several secret rooms full, and would rather use the money to enjoy luxury than fund the Chu State's military equipment.
After letting out a long sigh, Zi Cheyu no longer expected that the Chu soldiers under his command could break the shields in the hands of the Wei soldiers. He only hoped that those guys who were written as Dangshan Camp Wei Army but were called monsters would use up their physical strength as soon as possible.
.
He did not believe that the Wei soldiers could sustain such high-intensity killing for a long time.
However, the order given by the Wei general on the front line made Zi Cheyu almost despair.
"The front team retreats, and the rear team advances!"
On a very rare occasion, the Wei soldiers in the front line did not return their swords after forcing back the Chu soldiers in front. Instead, they quickly retreated. At the same time, the Wei soldiers in the second team were extremely fierce.
He quickly took their place and raised his shield to block the Chu army's counterattack.
This Wei army is so flawless even when changing ranks!
"Keep killing!"
Following the command from the frontline general Wei, the Wei soldiers began to advance forward again.
Zi Cheyu never thought that there was an infantry in the world, just a simple infantry, that could push their Chu army to this point.
You know, those are pure infantry!
There is no crossbowmen to assist in the attack at all, just infantry!
The difference is too far... This Wei infantry is stronger than the dredging army! Much stronger!
Zi Cheyu clenched his fists tightly, not even realizing that his nails were digging into his flesh.
He originally thought that as long as the Chu soldiers under his command united, they could repel the invading Wei soldiers. However, it turned out that he was wrong, and he was completely wrong.
Even though this Wei infantry only had three or four thousand men, it was definitely not something that the Chu army under his command, which numbered only over ten thousand, could defeat. The Chu soldiers under his command could not even stop the opponent from advancing.
arrive.
You know, there is a cavalry of more than 2,000 men from the other side not far away, watching eagerly!
The 2,000-man cavalry did not participate in the attack from beginning to end. They just stood by and watched with cold eyes as their three or four thousand infantry brothers from the Dangshan Camp defeated the more than 10,000 infantrymen under his command, Cheyu, and were completely routed.
I can't hold on any longer...
Zi Cheyu gritted his teeth with hatred, because he saw that after the opponent slaughtered nearly half of his soldiers, the surviving soldiers under his command inevitably began to retreat.
At first there were just one or two people, and then there were dozens or dozens of people. When hundreds of Chu soldiers began to retreat unconsciously, Zi Cheyu realized that they were finished.
More than 10,000 infantrymen were killed by Wei's infantry of only 3,000 to 4,000 people on the frontal battlefield, leaving them unable to fight back.
Why didn't these guys go to the Song Dynasty battlefield to stop Guling Lord Xiong Wu, but why did they come to the Yingshui battlefield?
Zi Cheyu thought bitterly, complaining about everything.
After a long while, he let out a long breath and turned his head to look at the more than two thousand Dangshan battalion cavalry who were watching eagerly in the distance.
He knew very well that the reason why this group of cavalry had not taken any action so far was simply because this battle did not require their intervention at all. However, once the Chu soldiers under his command began to flee south, then this group of more than two thousand
The Dangshan camp cavalry immediately transformed into terrifying beasts, regarded the fleeing Chu soldiers as prey, and began to hunt them to their heart's content.
Defending is also death; fleeing is also death!
Their fate has been determined.
Perhaps Zi Cheyu was not the only one who thought of this. No, some people in the Chu army began to kneel down and surrender.
However, what made all the Chu soldiers unbelievable was that even though the Chu soldiers had laid down their weapons and knelt down to surrender, the Wei soldiers on the opposite side still did not let them go and cut off their heads mercilessly.
"Gudu..."
A Chu soldier's head rolled down at the feet of a Chu soldier who was also kneeling on the ground and shouting that he was willing to surrender.
"I...we surrender!"
The Chu soldier thought the other party didn't hear him and shouted loudly.
However, the Wei soldier opposite seemed to turn a deaf ear. In the unbelievable eyes of the Chu soldier, he hacked him to the ground with a knife.
It was only after he finished cutting that the Wei soldier muttered expressionlessly: "We in the Dangshan camp do not keep any prisoners!"
This is not just an isolated case. On a huge battlefield, regardless of whether the Chu soldiers surrendered or did not surrender, the Wei soldiers in the Dangshan Camp treated them equally: kill!
After sacrificing hundreds of people, those Chu soldiers who were thinking about surrender gradually understood a terrible reality: the other side did not accept prisoners of war!
The Chu soldiers were angry and frightened, and almost wanted to die with each other with hatred. However, the Wei soldiers of the Dangshan Army were really calm. They repeated the killing process like a machine, and there was no mistake from beginning to end.
Strictly speaking, it doesn't look like a living person at all.
Finally, the hearts of the Chu soldiers collapsed and they began to flee south in large numbers.
"Stupid!" Seeing this scene, Zi Che yelled angrily.
But while he was scolding, he also understood that facing this terrifying Wei soldiers, even if they died together, that might be a luxury.
Sure enough, when it was discovered that the Chu soldiers were fleeing south, the more than two thousand cavalry finally took action.
"Aha!"
"Drive! Drive!"
More than two thousand cavalrymen seemed to take pleasure in killing people and rushed to hunt down the Chu soldiers. However, none of the cavalrymen dismounted and cut off their heads as a reward for their military exploits. It was as if they were just killing people for the sake of killing and did not care about any military exploits at all.
Looking at the scene of those cavalry hunting down Chu soldiers, Zi Cheyu couldn't help but think of the time when they hunted down those Wei people.
The difference is that at the beginning, the Chu soldiers were hunting unarmed Wei people. But now, the Dangshan Army cavalry were hunting a group of Chu soldiers who were defeated by the Dangshan Army infantry on the frontal battlefield.
Tit for tat!
"General, general..."
The guards beside him all looked at Zi Cheyu with horrified expressions.
In response to this, Zi Cheyu could only smile bitterly.
At this point, even he could not turn the tide. After all, half of the tens of thousands of Chu soldiers under his command had been killed by the Wei soldiers, and the remaining half had lost their fighting spirit and just wanted to escape.
Under such circumstances, what other methods does his son Cheyu have to turn the tide?
"Fight until the last moment!"
Pulling out the sharp sword from his waist, Zi Cheyu prepared to use his actions to demonstrate his dignity as a general of the Chu army.
Seeing this, the guards beside him also drew their swords.
But unfortunately, their determination did not infect the fighting spirit of the Chu soldiers. The numerous Chu soldiers still had to retreat under the pressure of the Wei soldiers, all the way to the Cai River.
If we retreat further, we will only end up with the Cai River rushing downstream. Although the water in the river is no longer turbulent now, you must know that it is early November, and if any Chu soldiers are forced into the water, even if they are not dead at the time
.When they climbed out of the water onto the shore, the cold weather was enough to freeze them to death.
However, even if they clearly understood this, there were still many Chu soldiers who desperately jumped into the Cai River to escape, as if in their eyes, the Wei soldiers on the opposite side were far more terrifying than the icy cold river water and the cold wind of late winter.
.
And those Wei soldiers of the Dangshan Army were also happy.
As a result, the Wei soldiers advanced slowly, while the Chu soldiers retreated one after another. With almost every breath, Chu soldiers were actively or passively forced down the river, tumbling in the river, and being slowly rushed downstream by the water.
Only Zi Cheyu and his personal guards bravely launched the last counterattack against the Wei soldiers.
"kill"
More than a dozen people bravely rushed to the front line.
But after just one round, out of those dozen people, Zi Cheyu was left alone.
The remaining dozen personal guards were no better than the ordinary Chu soldiers in front of the Wei soldiers. The Wei soldiers blocked their weapons with shields and declared their deaths.
Only Zi Cheyu, a general of the Chu army, blocked the Wei soldier's hard push. He did not move at all, but pushed the opponent to stagger.
However, the infantrymen of the Dangshan camp seemed to be very experienced in dealing with such brave enemy generals. Seeing that they were no match for their strength, the Wei soldiers stopped trying to push them away, and more than a dozen Wei soldiers were killed with shields.
The dead ground restricted Zi Cheyu's space for movement. He was suppressed and had no room to even turn around or swing his sword. At the same time, the Wei soldiers in the back row quickly came up and used the swords in their hands to move towards the gap between the shields.
, stabbed it hard.
"puff"
Several swords were pierced across his body. I believe Zi Cheyu, who had his eyes wide open in anger, would never have imagined that he could not even kill a single Wei soldier.
Weak... too weak!
From the beginning to the end, he watched the over 10,000 Chu troops being wiped out by his own side. Sima An, the general of the Dangshan Army, shook his head expressionlessly.
Suddenly, he seemed to notice something and turned his head to look across the Cai River.
On the other side of the Cai River, Duan Yang, the military lord of the Dredging Army, and the 500 Wei soldiers of the Dredging Army under his command were staring dumbfounded at the Dangshan Army, which also belonged to the Wei Dynasty.
The entire Chu army, which numbered over ten thousand, was wiped out.
Humph! It’s Baili’s little brat...
Glancing at the armor styles worn by Duan Yang and others on the other side of the Cai River, Sima An snorted lightly, flicked his shirt, and turned his horse's head.
"Withdraw your troops! Return to Dangshan!"
"drink!"
