Chapter 1517 Xu Shiji's three birds with one stone
The right camp of the Wagang Army was completely in chaos. Due to the presence of the three thousand cavalry led by Wang Junlin himself, Li Mi shifted the focus of defense to his left wing, leaving the right wing empty.
Moreover, after a night of many surprises, Wang Junlin followed Li Jing's advice and repeatedly used the story of the boy who cried wolf, which completely put the Wagang officers and soldiers into a state of absolute relaxation.
When Li Jing personally led two thousand cavalry into the Wagang Army camp from the right wing, the entire Wagang Army officers and soldiers on the right wing did not even have time to react. In addition, the morale of the Wagang Army soldiers was not high these days, and
The place Li Jing chose was mainly where the Wagang Outer Camp was located. In this state, it was difficult to organize an efficient counterattack and obstruction.
Li Mi looked at the right camp with a sullen face, where the flames were blazing. He saw that his troops were cut into small pieces, helplessly cut off from their horses, or simply had no horses at all, and were trampled by the enemy. His eyes were filled with rage.
In his Chinese army camp, elite members of the direct line are beginning to assemble.
"The left wing must be defended by me no matter what. I don't want them to annihilate many enemies, as long as they block the Far Eastern Army on the left wing," Li Mi roared, "The bastard king is coming."
The right battalion of the Wagang Army Camp had been completely broken and disabled. The two thousand cavalry led by Li Jing personally rushed into the Wagang Army Camp and killed all the enemies in front of them one by one.
Fight from the south to the foot of Fengyang City in the north. Then turn around and fight in again.
Li Shanfei and Li Xuanba in the city had been waiting excitedly since they received the secret message from Wang Junlin asking Shen Guoer to be delivered by flying eagle in the evening. Seeing that the time had come, Li Xuanba couldn't wait to wave his hand.
The specially made big ax shouted loudly: "Open the city gate, open the city gate, we will cut across the right flank of Wagang's army and cut Li Mi's army in half. We will kill them all."
Soon, Li Xuanba rushed out of Fengyang City with more than 20,000 cavalry from the Storm Bear Battalion. To prevent Wagang's army from taking advantage of the chaos to capture Fengyang City, Li Shanfei led more than 7,000 men under his command to continue to defend Fengyang City.
.
The city gate was opened, and more than 20,000 violent bear battalion cavalry rushed out of the city like a torrent of steel. At this moment, Li Mi gathered tens of thousands of elites from the inner camp of the Chinese army and began to attack the two thousand violent bear battalion led by Li Jing from the right camp.
The cavalry charged.
Although Li Jing commanded the battle well and was brave enough personally, and the cavalry of the Storm Bear Battalion was not to mention powerful, but after all, the number was too small, and he was about to be surrounded. At this time, Li Xuanba led the main force of the Storm Bear Battalion to kill
Came over.
It has to be said that the Far East Army's plan was very smooth, and every step and every link was connected very tightly and just right.
Li Jing watched from afar as Li Xuanba led the main force of the Storm Bear Battalion out of the city as planned and attacked the right wing where Li Mi had gathered, and felt completely relieved.
"Charge!" Li Xuanba has a burly body like a giant bear, wears special armor, and has a ferocious face, making him look like a devil. He is still the one who rushes at the front, because he is always violent.
The tip of Xiong Ying's precious blade is as sharp as clay.
This precious blade accurately cut through the right wing of Wagang led by Li Mi, and then killed the central army, which was the only elite unit in the Wagang camp that could still maintain calm and have a certain morale.
He slashed hard with the special long-handled axe, and he took the lead in rushing out. More than 20,000 cavalrymen followed quickly, and a black torrent burst out.
At this time, most places in Wagang Camp were completely in chaos.
However, Xu Shiji, the general manager of the Wagang Army, never came forward to organize the army to counterattack.
In fact, when Li Xuanba led more than 20,000 men from the Baoxiong Battalion to rush out of Fengyang City and kill the Wagang Army camp five miles away, Xu Shiji led 50,000 Wagang elites to suddenly kill them out of the night.
out.
Xu Shiji did not attack the Baoxiong Camp led by Li Xuanba, but attacked Fengyang City, which was only garrisoned by thousands of Li Shanfei's men. They even led a large number of siege equipment, which showed that they were very well prepared.
Obviously, Xu Shiji had expected that the Far Eastern Army would attack the camp tonight, but he didn't know whether he had guessed it before Li Jing's plan to exhaust his troops, or whether he had noticed it after he exhausted his troops.
Li Shanfei obviously did not expect that in this situation, Xu Shiji would ignore the safety of the Wagang camp and instead lead 50,000 elites to attack Fengyang City. He was really caught off guard. In addition, Xu Shiji had planned it for a long time. The first person to attack the ladder was
Carefully selected elite experts even stormed the city in a short period of time.
It is a pity that the Far Eastern Army has too many secret terrorist weapons. Xu Shiji had expected that these thousands of masters and dead soldiers he carefully selected and an unexpected surprise attack would be able to capture Fengyang City no matter what.
Unfortunately, there are also dead soldiers in Fengyang City, and the dead soldiers are also masters. Compared with the dead soldiers of the Wagang Army, the black-armored dead soldiers trained by Nie Xiaoyu are the real dead soldiers.
, because they don’t seem to feel any pain or any emotions. They are war machines that obey orders without any conditions or hesitation. And these war machines are all masters above the stagnation stage, and they are proficient in killing soldiers on the battlefield.
The combat method is generally a level better than the masters selected by the Wagang Army.
And the most important thing is that these black-armored soldiers of the Far Eastern Army are armed to the teeth, with grenades, explosive packs, light steel armor, new rapid-fire crossbows, etc., no matter in terms of attack strength and speed, or defensive surface and strength.
They are far superior to the dead soldiers of Wagang Army.
Therefore, even though the Wagang Army had more dead soldiers than the Far Eastern Army, because the latter was on the defensive and had a city wall to rely on, in the end it still cost 20 dead soldiers to defeat the nearly 1,000 watts that initially attacked the city.
All the masters of the Gang Army were killed, and most of them were the result of the twenty black-armored men igniting the explosive packs on their bodies and dying together with the dozens of masters of the Wagang Army.
"This is the last chance..." Seeing that except for the initial attack on the city, which was destroyed by a series of explosions, Xu Shiji muttered to himself with a look of sadness and despair on his face.
He said: "There is no chance. We, Wagang, can never take back Fengyang City."
"Send the order, withdraw the troops and retreat!" Xu Shiji knew that the opportunity had been lost and decisively ordered a retreat.
But Xu Shiji took a look at the Wagang Army camp that was in complete chaos. He did not lead his troops to support him, but instead led his troops to bypass the camp and disappear into the dark night.
Wang Junlin watched Xu Shiji lead his people away from a distance. Apart from asking Shen Guoer to send people to follow him and keep an eye on Xu Shiji's troops, he did not send anyone to pursue him because he knew that Xu Shiji was expecting him to divide his troops to pursue them.
"Your Majesty, this move by Xu Shiji kills three birds with one stone." Shen Guoer thought for a moment and said.
Wang Junlin nodded and said in appreciation: "Yes, ever since the battle at Xiaohedao Pass, Xu Shiji had guessed that I wanted to subdue him, so he divided his troops and evacuated at this time, hoping that I would divide my troops to chase him. Leading troops directly into the chaotic battlefield in the darkness, Xu Shiji's move is the best way to relieve Li Mi from his difficulties."
Shen Guoer smiled and said: "The second reason why Xu Shiji split his troops and fled is probably that he doesn't want to stay with Li Mi anymore. According to the news from our spies in the Wagang Army, the effect of the prince's alienation strategy has already appeared. Although Li Mi would not express his suspicion of Xu Shiji on the surface, he had never stopped making small moves secretly. And with Xu Shiji's mind, how could he not know that he might one day die from Li Mi's poisonous wine? under."
Wang Junlin said: "Xu Shiji's third purpose of dividing his troops and evacuating is probably to rush back to Wagang Village early. He has obviously guessed what happened in Wagang Village, and he has also expected that Li Mi will return to Wagang Village. There will definitely be a fight to the death with Zhai Rang after Gangzhai."
"Xu Shiji wanted to prevent this thing from happening. I have to say that he saw far ahead and what he did was the most correct from his perspective. But there are some things even if he is the third person in the Wagang Group. , even the chief manager of the Wagang Army can't stop it." Shen Guoer sneered.
………
………
There was a bit of fish belly white on the horizon. Although it was still night, people's vision was much clearer. Li Mi personally led the 30,000 elite troops from Wagang to rush out. Li Jing led 2,000 cavalry and arrived just a hundred steps away from him. , Li Jing gave an order, and before the Wagang army could shoot arrows and rush forward, two thousand fast crossbows made a buzzing sound, and rained arrows were shot out. At the same time, Li Jing actually ordered two thousand cavalry to dismount and race as fast as possible. The infantry formed a circular battle formation at such a speed.
On the chaotic battlefield, the fast-moving and individually powerful cavalry were transformed into slow-moving infantry with relatively weak individual combat capabilities. Only Li Jing could do such a decisive thing.
Of course Li Jing had his own reasons, because he had already rushed to the core of the Wagang Army with these two thousand people, and Li Xuanba's more than 20,000 people and Wang Junlin's more than 3,000 people would be defeated by the Wagang Army in a short while. Nearly 100,000 people are entangled, and they won't be able to get here in a short time.
As the Far Eastern Army with a small number of troops, the most important thing to avoid at this moment is to be disrupted and engage in a full-scale melee with the Wagang Army. In that case, the strength of the Far Eastern Army's battle formation will be greatly reduced, and the shortcomings of the small number of troops will be eliminated. Instantly magnify ten times.
Although the cavalry also has battle formations, even if it is a violent bear camp and Li Jing is leading the team, it is difficult to guarantee that it will not be scattered. However, it is different if it is an infantry.
Because, with the discipline of the Far East Army and the quality of battle formations, once an infantry battle formation is formed, it will become a whole, a huge rock that is extremely hard and difficult to destroy in the flood.
But on a chaotic battlefield, the cavalry dismounts and turns into infantry and forms a battle formation. This needs to be completed in a very short time. This is so difficult that it is almost impossible even for ordinary armies.
possible.
It can even be said that only the Far East Army can do such a thing among the current armies in the world.
But even the Far Eastern Army, almost as soon as they dismounted and moved closer together, were overwhelmed by tens of thousands of troops led by Li Mi under the cover of crossbows.
"Form a circle, defend and defend!" Li Jing waved his thick-backed sword, dashing left and right, constantly adjusting his deployment in the chaos so that his two thousand infantry formed a circular formation, with two rows of spearmen on the outside.
, constantly stabbing Li Mi's 10,000 bodyguard cavalry who were charging at the front off their horses, while the three people inside were holding fast crossbows and firing freely.
During this process, the soldiers of the Storm Bear Battalion on the outside were constantly knocked away or knocked down by the powerful cavalry. At this time, the quick crossbowmen in the three circles would immediately drop their quick crossbows and hold their spears.
Fill in the gaps.
"Hold, hold! Stab, stab!" Li Jing led the one hundred black-armored dead soldiers specially sent to him by Wang Junlin in the circular formation. Seeing the danger there, he mobilized the support of one hundred black-armored dead soldiers and rushed over.
Cut and hold the line of defense.
In the chaos of the army, the two thousand soldiers of the Storm Bear Battalion who had become infantry gradually stabilized their formation and acted as the mainstay in the torrent of cavalry, firmly holding the line of defense.
Originally, Li Mi's central army had gathered more than 30,000 people who had not fallen into chaos, but the two thousand people led by Li Jing were inserted into the core position and attracted nearly half of them at once. This was close to the nearly two thousand people led by Li Jing.
About ten times, but due to the advantages of the Far Eastern Army's steel armor, face-protecting helmets, steel guns, fast crossbows, and more advanced tactics and tactics, they were unable to gain the upper hand.
On the left wing, Wang Junlin divided the three thousand cavalry into two, and personally led a thousand cavalry around the left wing to join Li Mi's army in the attack, while the remaining two thousand people still violently attacked the Wagang camp and were still in chaos.
At this time, the left wing of the Wagang Army was also on the verge of collapse.
Li Mi sadly found that he had an advantage in terms of overall military strength, but in every battle direction during the battle, he was always inexplicably unable to gain the upper hand, or even at a disadvantage.
In particular, Li Jing's two thousand infantry were like a nail drilled into his stomach, making him extremely uncomfortable but unable to remove it.
Seeing that although the opponent's circular formation is being compressed step by step by himself, it has become smaller and smaller, but the smaller it is, the greater its rebound force is, and the greater the price it has to pay to further compress it inward, even if it is eliminated by itself.
Although there were two thousand men and horses, his right wing was bound to be completely defeated by Li Xuanba's more than 20,000 cavalrymen from the Storm Bear Battalion. Looking back at the left wing, the defense line was already shaky.
Lowering his head in pain, Li Mi said: "Instruct He Yongyi to lead the 10,000 people who dared to die yesterday to break the rear, and the others to retreat, retreat..." His eyes were bloodshot, and he gave the order reluctantly,
After saying this, his teeth actually bit his lip.
Li Mi ordered his soldiers to blow the retreat horn. Li Jing, whose circular formation had been crushed, finally breathed a sigh of relief. More than 1,300 of their 2,000 people were left, and the 100 black men sent to him by Wang Junlin
Nearly half of the armored soldiers died. To be honest, if there were not these one hundred black armored soldiers, at least half of his two thousand people would die, and it is very likely that the Wagang army would not be able to withdraw under the crazy attack led by Li Mi.
.
Looking at the Wagang cavalry retreating like a tide, Li Jing held his sword and gasped for air. He thought that his plan had been mostly successful, and he had achieved huge military exploits. The most important thing was that this battle established his reputation in one fell swoop.
Wang Junlin couldn't help but smile cheerfully because of the status in his heart: "Li Mi is nothing more than that. If Xu Shiji were here just now, he would definitely be able to see that if they attack for a while longer, I really won't be able to withstand it."
Seeing Li Mi's retreat, Wang Junlin knew that the difference between his own troops and the opponent's was too great to stop the Wagang people's retreat. What's more, stopping the Wagang army at this time would definitely force every Wagang army to fight to the death.
Even if all the Wagang troops were killed, there would probably not be much left of the nearly 30,000 troops of their Far East Army. Such a result was not what Wang Junlin wanted to see.
Therefore, Wang Junlin did not make too many entanglements, and immediately followed the plan and ordered an opening to be opened to allow the front troops of the Wagang Army to escape, but ordered all the cavalry to cover up and kill as many of the Wagang Army soldiers as possible.
Riding his horse and walking up to Li Jing, Wang Junlin laughed loudly, jumped off his horse, and said, "Yes, you and Li Jing are the only ones responsible for the planning of this battle just now, and you led two thousand men to entangle the two most elite men under Li Mi's command.
More than 1,000 people have made their first contribution. Okay, you lead these more than 1,000 people to clean up the battlefield, be responsible for the treatment of wounded soldiers and the disposal of prisoners, and bring them all to Fengyang City. The matter of continuing to hunt down the defeated Wagang army will be handed over to you.
Give it to Li Xuanba!"
