Lin Jue was naturally not a reckless man. Although he was forced to attack, Lin Jue still had some arrangements. Just like the strategy of using war horses to disrupt the enemy's formation, it worked. During the most dangerous stage of approaching the formation, the opponent's bows and arrows did not hit him.
Our own side brought a lot of casualties. Only a dozen guards were shot and killed during the charge, which can no longer be regarded as a loss.
In addition, of course Lin Jue has other arrangements.
The six hundred warriors were like a sharp dagger inserted into the opponent's formation. After the battle, the strength of the soldiers on both sides was clearly judged. The palace guards were not only well-equipped and strong in armor, but their martial arts skills were much higher than those of these soldiers.
The soldiers were no match for them at all. To describe them as chopping melons and vegetables seemed a bit exaggerated, but to a certain extent it was not an exaggeration.
The formation of 600 people tightly shrank together and gathered into a tight formation. The advantage of this is that it prevents the opponent from cutting and encircling it, and reduces the size of the enemy. Everyone on the periphery only needs to focus on fighting the enemy.
Fight with all your strength, without worrying about being behind you, because there are your own people there. This is a point that Lin Jue constantly emphasized before the war. If some of the hands were cut off, Lin Jue also issued a death order, and he must not rush to the rescue.
Because that will make the formation looser and more fragmented by the opponent's impact.
The opponent has too many people, and a large-scale battle will expose our own numerical disadvantage. Through this method of fighting, we will only face the enemy in the outer circle. The actual strength of the fighting force is only more than 200 people on each side.
.This move is equivalent to forcibly equalizing the actual number of combatants on both sides, which can be described as a smart move. In the melee, the opponent's archers did not dare to shoot arrows randomly, because it is easy to accidentally injure one's own people.
Another advantage of this formation is that the manpower in one's inner and outer circles can be rotated. Human strength is limited, especially when facing a large number of enemies. They can't kill them all. After killing one, three or four more will come up. Even if it is
These people will be exhausted if they stand there for you to kill. When they are tired, they will be attacked by the opponent's new force. Therefore, Lin Jue's request is that as soon as you feel tired, you should immediately retreat to the circle, and the guards in the circle will immediately
On the top. It is equivalent to taking turns to rest and regain strength.
At the beginning of the war, with clever tactics and superb martial arts, the six hundred warriors actually gained the upper hand. Although the opponent had a large number of people, they were useless because of the large number of people. Most of the soldiers and horses could only be surrounded and unable to join the battle group.
The six hundred warriors formed a tight formation, like a heavy chariot, with sharp rotating blades on all sides, crushing through the crowd without any hindrance. In just half an hour, thousands of soldiers were killed and wounded, six
Out of a hundred warriors, there were only thirty casualties.
Lin Jue was in the middle of the formation, surrounded by Sun Dayong and people protecting him, and some even held a shield for him.
"Brother Sun, where is the enemy's general? Have you found him?" Lin Jue asked in a deep voice.
Sun Dayong said: "There is a flag on the east slope, it should be a general leading the army."
Lin Jue squinted and took a closer look. Above the east slope, a large flag was fluttering in the wind, with a big "Li" written on it. Under the flag, a general was gesticulating with a sword in hand, seeming to be directing the soldiers.
rush ahead.
Lin Jue nodded and said: "That should be it. We must kill the leading general, otherwise it will not be the end. Look, we seem to have some small advantages now, but our manpower is exhausted. There are too many opponents, and we will be exhausted.
.Give me the order to kill on the slope."
This was exactly one of Lin Jue's plans before the battle. If he wanted to win, he couldn't just kill some of the other side's soldiers. It was impossible for his six hundred men to win by killing soldiers. Capture the thief and capture the king.
, you must kill the opponent's general to make the opponent collapse. The purpose of this battle is not to kill people, but to seize the mountain pass to leave.
The order was passed, and the formation turned to kill diagonally towards the southwest slope. On that slope, under the banner with the word "Li", the general commanding and commanding was none other than Li Zhidong, the commander of the Ping Army in Ruzhou. Soldiers and horses from the four states gathered here.
, it is actually a question who has the command power. The result of the discussion between Li Zhidong and others is that each performs his own duties and leads the troops to defend his own territory. Therefore, the entire mountain pass is divided into four areas. Where will the opponent attack?
The private soldiers are responsible for blocking the attack, which is also a clear method.
The six hundred people were first in the defense area of Zhou Quanrong, the commander of the Anji Army in Tangzhou, so Li Zhidong was still watching the show. In a blink of an eye, the enemy attacked his defense area. Seeing that his brothers fell on their backs and suffered heavy casualties, Li Zhidong screamed angrily.
He gesticulated and ordered the surrounding soldiers to block the opponent's path and try their best to stop them. Seeing that the opponent showed signs of going towards Dengzhou's soldiers and horses, Li Zhidong laughed loudly.
"Old guy Feng Zai'an wants you to watch a show. Those bastards from the Ningxiang Army have done nothing. Old guy Feng Zai'an even beat me by ten taels of silver. Tell the brothers, don't help and let the old guy handle it on his own."
Li Zhidong cursed.
"But sir, they seem to be coming towards us." The deputy commander next to him saw the clues and reminded him.
Only then did Li Zhidong realize that the other party had suddenly turned around and was heading towards his position. He cursed angrily: "Why do these desperate people always have trouble with me? They have killed so many of my brothers and they still refuse to leave."
The deputy commander said: "Sir, do you want to avoid it? They seem to be coming towards us."
"You're avoiding it! We have suffered so much loss, why don't we make some money back? You gave me the credit, why don't I pay it back? Tigers don't show off their power, they treat us like sick cats. Is our Changping army so easy to bully? Lai!
Don't want to leave here? Then kill them all. Give me the order and kill them! The guards camp will fight against me!" Li Zhidong shouted.
The deputy commander scratched his head and said: "The other party is very vicious. Do you really want to go there in person?"
Li Zhidong cursed angrily: "You bitch, are you afraid of death? If you're afraid of death, go home and eat your mother's milk. Usually, they brag to the sky one by one, but they just
There are only a few hundred people, but our Changping Army has 6,000 people. Ten of them will hit each other, and you are still afraid of a ball? I won't be rude if I keep talking."
The deputy commander did not dare to say anything. Li Zhidong gave a loud order, and all the soldiers surrounded him, swarming Lin Jue and others. Li Zhidong went into battle in person, changed a spear and rushed to the front, the spear danced, and the red tassel flickered.
, while a palace guard was distracted from dealing with two soldiers, the spear rushed out like lightning, stabbing the palace guard to the core.
"Okay! Mr. Li is so brave!" The generals and soldiers around him cheered. Li Zhidong stood proudly, with his spear in hand, looking around, looking like "Who else is there?"
Li Zhidong's marksmanship is passed down from his family, and the Li family's guns are quite famous. It was precisely because of his superb marksmanship that Li Zhidong stood out from the martial arts competition. After rolling around in the border town and making some military exploits, he was less than forty years old.
Suiben became the commander of the Xiang army in the local state capital. Although his temper was a little bad and bad, he still had some abilities.
After that, Li Zhidong killed two more palace guards, both of them fatally shot, extremely ferocious. The guards' armor originally had a good protective effect, but Li Zhidong was very powerful, and his spear was really ferocious.
Even the front formation was disrupted by him, and a group of troops almost rushed in and split the formation.
"Sun Dayong, go kill him." After witnessing all this, Lin Jue gritted his molars and said.
Sun Dayong promised in a deep voice, jumped up and rushed forward.
Li Zhidong was wielding his spear to attack a guard, when suddenly a strong wind hit his face. When he turned around, he saw a big fist enlarging in front of his eyes. Li Zhidong dodged to the side and swept away with the spear in his hand. The opponent jumped to hide.
Open, body shape is flexible. Both parties keep their bodies steady and look at each other.
"Good skills. What a pity." Sun Dayong said solemnly.
Li Zhidong frowned and said, "What's a pity?"
Sun Dayong said: "It's a pity that you are going to die."
"You are the one who will die if you fuck your mother's bitch. You rebels dare to kill the emperor and usurp the throne. Today is your day of death. I, Sun Zhidong, will rely on your promotion and fortune." Sun Zhidong cursed.
"It's no use talking more, let's wait and see." Sun Dayong didn't want to waste any more time. He yelled, jumped up, connected his feet, and kicked towards him with a whining sound. People around him felt strange that this man had a weapon in his hand.
But instead of using a weapon to kill people, he jumped up and kicked people. Isn't this a fool? How did they know that this was Sun Dayong's killer move? His leg skills were like pressing the bottom of the box, and he moved his legs directly as soon as he came up.
, that is already the most ferocious trick.
Li Zhidong could see that the opponent was approaching menacingly, but he was not afraid. The opponent's style of fighting was not a threat to him because he had a spear in hand.
The gunfire shook and turned into thousands of phantoms. Suddenly it galloped out, looking for the middle part of Sun Dayong's body in the air, the largest area of the chest. Sun Dayong's feet were not as long as his own spear, and the spear penetrated his
Physically, he can't kick himself.
Sun Dayong saw it clearly, shouted loudly, slashed the spear with the long knife in his hand, and lifted his body up a foot with the force of the spear. Li Zhidong shook the spear, turning the thorn into a pick, and wanted to take advantage of the situation to knock Sun Dayong away. Sun Dayong's hand
The long knife slid on the gun shaft, making a harsh friction sound, and sparks flew everywhere. His body quickly slid down Li Zhidong's gun shaft, and went straight to Li Zhidong as if he was sitting on a slide.
Li Zhidong was shocked. He never expected that this seemingly clumsy man could be so dexterous. He suddenly used his gun as a slide and came straight towards him. At this moment, Li Zhidong had two options. One was to withdraw the gun and retreat.
The opponent's move is bound to fail. But Li Zhidong has never abandoned his weapon when facing the enemy. This gun is also an heirloom of his Li family. Holding it in his hand is waiting to hold on to the reputation of the Li family's gun.
It is impossible to abandon the gun. Then the only option left is to borrow this kick.
Li Zhidong retreated with one hand and held it in front of his chest. He believed that the strength of his palm and the strength of the armor could definitely block the opponent's kick. But how did he know that it was not a kick, but a handle?
The big hammer came down, it was more than he could bear.
With a bang, Sun Dayong's kick was defeated. Li Zhidong grunted and staggered back. A stubborn air made him want to steady his body, but his body refused to obey. Fortunately, he had a spear in his hand, and he tried his best
Use the spear to support your body.
However, the severe pain in his chest and abdomen was unbearable, and a fishy and hot substance surged up in his throat, as if it was about to spurt out.
"You are a man. I have never seen anyone who could still stand in front of me after being kicked by me." Sun Dayong fell to the ground and said in a deep voice.
"Wow! Poof!" Li Zhidong wanted to say a few words, but when he opened his mouth, a mouthful of blood mixed with the debris in his chest and abdomen spurted out. This breath was relieved, and he could no longer take it up. The blood spurted out of his mouth.
He stopped, and in an instant, his flushed face turned white, and then turned gray. The whole person fell to the ground, his hands and feet twitched a few times, and he died.
When the surrounding troops saw this, they screamed in horror. Someone stepped forward to check Li Zhidong's breath and exclaimed: "The commander is dead. This is incredible."
Lin Jue saw everything in his eyes and shouted loudly: "Your general is dead, why don't you run away quickly? Do you really want to kill them all?"
All the soldiers looked at each other in shock. I don’t know who shouted, and turned around and ran away. Suddenly, all the soldiers in the Changping Army turned around and fled in all directions. Some generals yelled and restrained them, but how could they restrain them. Originally, the soldiers
They were frightened by each other's comings and goings. They were frightened by the sight of them chopping melons and vegetables. Naturally, they did not dare to escape if Li Zhidong was alive. But with Li Zhidong dead, everything was out of control. How long would it take if they didn't run away?
Lin Jue breathed a sigh of relief. The plan to kill the opponent's general was still feasible. At least this army was defeated. He immediately gave a loud order to attack the Ningxiang army and Dengzhou army in the east. The remaining three continents
The soldiers and horses were shocked when they saw the large-scale rout of Ruzhou soldiers and horses. Soon the news came and they learned that Li Zhidong had been killed by the opponent. The morale of the army was shattered, so the soldiers fled in fear. The other three people were all alert.
Lin Jue wanted to repeat his old trick and ordered everyone to kill Feng Zai'an, the commander of Dengzhou's Ningxiang Army, but Feng Zai'an would not give him another chance. As he retreated, he ordered his troops to immediately move forward to surround and entangle his opponent. But in Chang'an,
After the defeat of the Ping army, the two armies of Tangzhou and Caizhou no longer abide by the responsibility of divided defense, and came over to cover up and kill them under the orders of their respective commanders. Lin Jue and others were trapped on three levels inside and three outside.
among them.
The opponent's reaction made Lin Jue's intention of capturing the thief and the king in vain. The three commanders of the soldiers gathered together, and the soldiers surrounded Lin Jue and others, preventing them from moving at all. Although Lin Jue
The damage they caused to the enemy was still great, but there were really too many of them, and they couldn't kill them all. Moreover, the opponent began to become smarter, and thousands of spearmen used their weapons to attack the palace guards.
The three commanders of the Xiang army began to order the archers to shoot arrows into the middle of the formation, without any concern for the possibility of accidentally injuring the soldiers who had already been released.
The situation suddenly changed. The palace guards began to suffer huge casualties. The peripheral spearmen stabbed and wounded people from time to time, and the firing of powerful arrows made the situation worse. In the chaos, these 600 warriors had suffered hundreds of casualties in less than a stick of incense, and the remaining
Less than four hundred people left.
The long battle also made everyone exhausted. In order to deal with the pursuers and rush on the road these days, everyone barely got a good rest. At this moment, the consequences of physical exhaustion began to show.
Lin Jue was so anxious that he shouted loudly: "Fireworks! Fireworks!"
A Lin family nurse escaped and fired fireworks into the sky. Fireworks exploded under the setting sun, and the nearby hills responded immediately. Several fireworks jumped into the sky and exploded under the solemn sky.
"Reinforcements are here, reinforcements are here. Kill them all, don't let them escape." Lin Jue shouted loudly.
Everyone also shouted, cheering up and charging more fiercely. The soldiers were shocked when they heard the words. They also saw the fireworks. When they heard the shouting, they thought that reinforcements had arrived. Everyone was panicked and didn't know what to do.
.
Feng Zai'an and the other three were also startled. He Zhen, the commander of the Caizhou Anmin Army, said in horror: "Their reinforcements have arrived, we have to withdraw."
"Where did they get reinforcements? They were chased all the way from the capital. The news sent by Lu Xiang was clear. They only had eight or nine hundred soldiers and horses, and the rest were all family members, women and children, and those transporting gold, silver, and soft goods.
"Where did the reinforcements come from? I don't believe it." Feng Zai'an said.
"Yes, let's take a look. They won't be able to hold on for much longer. If we retreat at this time, I'm afraid all our previous efforts will be wasted." The commander of the Anji Army also said.
Several people ordered people to investigate, and at the same time ordered the attack to continue. Sure enough, the so-called reinforcements did not appear at all. The soldiers who visited reported that there were no soldiers coming from the hills on both sides, not even a ghost.
"Damn it, it's just a ploy to deceive the soldiers and scare us. This Lin Jue is really scheming. He almost deceived me." He Zhen cursed.
"I'm not fooled. Lao He, you are so cowardly. If I hadn't warned you, you might have really run away." Feng Zai'an scoffed.
He Zhen was speechless and vented his anger on Lin Jue and others. He ordered sternly: "Kill, kill me. No matter the cost. Anyone who dares to retreat will be shot without mercy."
After learning that the opponent was bluffing, the soldiers attacked even more fiercely. The opponent obviously couldn't hold on any longer, so they came up with such a way to scare people. This was because they were exhausted and struggled in vain.
This was indeed Lin Jue's plan. He hoped to disturb the opponent's military morale in this way. So before the war, he sent several men to the surrounding hills. When he fired off fireworks, these men responded, causing
It has the effect of being surrounded on all sides, with ambushes everywhere. It is best to scare the opponent into defeat.
In the Battle of Feishui, the Xie family's children used bluffing to defeat the former Qin Dynasty Fu Jian's million-strong army with only 80,000 Beifu troops. This was done by disrupting the morale of the army, creating a situation in which the enemy was in panic and retreated in panic.
Unfortunately, that battle was not comparable to this battle in many aspects, and Lin Jue's method did not work.
The opponent's offensive was very fierce, and the situation became more and more dangerous. Lin Jue and others were trapped in a hard battle. Although they killed a large number of soldiers, the number of the opponent was too many. They exchanged three or four soldiers for a palace guard or a Lin family nurse.
Lin Jue's life was unacceptable to Lin Jue. Moreover, the other party actually dispatched more than a thousand soldiers towards the residence of the family members and their belongings. The other party's intention was obvious, to attack the family members and their belongings in the rear, and this was exactly
Lin Jue was most worried about this before the war.
Although the chariots, horses, family members and baggage were all moved to a secret place in the hill, and more than a hundred people were left behind despite such a tight manpower. And the last firearms, ammunition and crossbows were left to the protective personnel, just to prevent the other party from attacking.
Take this step. But the opponent's move obviously hits our own weakness. No matter what preparations they have made, what Lin Jue and others are most worried about is the safety of the personnel in the rear.
Lin Jue felt anxious in his heart, and he suddenly felt powerless. This battle may have been a mistake from the beginning. He also overestimated his own ability and his own combat effectiveness. A mere 600 people took the initiative to attack 20,000
Soldiers, this is such an inflated move. The previous series of victories have gone to my head, and I am obviously overestimating my capabilities. Even if the pursuit of troops is approaching and I will be attacked from both front and rear, I may not be able to do this.
Attack rashly. Maybe we should spend a little time to plan. Maybe there is another better way than this situation.
