"Even if it offends Long Wei, I still have to say that this is a national matter, not a personal matter! Zhuge Liang led a group of 110,000 people outside. They came from a long way and were exhausted. If he was given three days to rest, they would definitely come by then. Attack us!" Zhou Yu frowned and interrupted Ling Cao.
Ling Cao said nothing, but shook his head helplessly. Seeing that Zhou Yu and Sun Ce were both angry, he knew that whoever tried to persuade them would be in trouble, so he simply let them go. He himself walked to Xu Sheng's side and shouted: "Take the troops back to camp!"
The next day, Zhou Yu went to see Sun Ce, but Sun Ce excused himself because he was ill and ignored everyone. Helpless, Zhou Yu had no choice but to retreat. He came to the city gate, climbed up the city tower, and looked out from the top of the city. He saw that the Han army's camp could be vaguely seen in the distance, with cavalry running back and forth outside, but inside the camp there were all bows and crossbows. It looks like it's extremely well guarded.
"Ling Cao!" Zhou Yu shouted loudly.
"The general is here, what do you want the governor to do?" Ling Cao shouted.
"Assemble the troops and horses, order thirty thousand horse and foot, and follow me to the expedition!"
"Going out to fight?" Ling Cao was surprised.
"Your Majesty has asked me to take full charge of military dispatch and command the troops in the city. How dare you disobey?" Zhou Yu turned around, with a cold light in his eyes.
Ling Cao had never seen Zhou Yu with such an expression before, and said hurriedly: "I don't dare! I will go and order all the troops and horses now. Commander, please wait a moment."
"Wait" Zhou Yu shouted hurriedly when he saw Ling Cao turning around and leaving.
Ling Cao turned around and asked, "What other orders does the Governor have?"
"Send someone to inform your majesty, please come to the top of the city to watch the battle. Today I will fight with Zhuge Liang!" After saying this, Zhou Yu went down from the tower.
Ling Cao was puzzled, but he did as he was told. Let Ding Feng inform Sun Ce.
Sun Ce was shutting himself in the room at this time, and his stomach was full of resentment. Yesterday Zhou Yu contradicted him. Make it impossible for him to get off the stage. However, this was not the main reason for his anger. He was worried that if what Zhou Yu said was true and Zhuge Liang had no intention of surrendering to him at all, but had been perfunctory with him, then he would really be embarrassed.
¡°Dong dong dong!¡±
"Get out! I told you that no one will be seen. Are you all deaf?" Sun Ce took a teacup and slammed it towards the door. The teacup was smashed to pieces.
"Your Majesty, this is Ding Feng. The Commander-in-Chief led the army to fight Zhuge Liang. Your Majesty is specially invited to watch the battle!" Ding Feng said outside the door when he saw Sun Ce being so angry.
Not long after, the door was opened. Sun Ce was already fully clothed, holding a blood-drinking gun and an ancient ingot knife at his waist. Strided out and walked out.
When Ding Feng saw this, he followed closely.
"Gong Jin is injured and it is difficult for him to go out to fight. Why don't you stop him?" Sun Ce complained as he walked away.
Ding Feng was speechless. He was originally a subordinate of Pan Zhang and was young, but by chance, he showed his bravery when Sun Ce was hunting. He was favored by Sun Ce and was directly promoted to the rank of captain. Within the year. He was promoted to three levels in a row and became a general at the age of thirteen. It is indeed rare in the world.
Sun Ce didn¡¯t hear the answer and didn¡¯t care. He strode out of the prefect's mansion, mounted his horse and drove straight to the city gate.
At this time, Zhou Yu led Ling Cao, General Xu Sheng and 30,000 troops out of the city. When Sun Ce arrived at the city gate, Zhou Yu's army had already formed a formation outside the city and was marching toward the Han army camp.
At this time, although the Chinese flag was still hanging above Zhuge Liang's camp, in Zhou Yu's eyes, Zhuge Liang was an out-and-out Han army. No one accepted his surrender and sent a secret letter in advance. , let people shoot him with arrows, and asked Zhuge Liang to fight.
Sun Ce rode out of the city alone, leaving Ding Feng to guard the city. He quickly came to the Wu army's formation, went to Zhou Yu in person, and asked: "Gong Jin, what are you going to do?"
"Your Majesty, I want to show your Majesty whether Zhuge Liang is more powerful or I am more powerful. Although Zhuge Liang has great talents, he cannot be used by me. Therefore, I can only get rid of him and then quickly. Once Zhuge Liang surrenders to the Huaxia Kingdom, it must be A powerful enemy of our army," Zhou Yu said loudly.
Sun Ce was filled with emotion. He felt deeply guilty for Zhou Yu's words yesterday and for his unknown anger towards Zhou Yu. He said: "Gong Jin, last night I"
"It was my fault last night and I should not have contradicted Your Majesty. Today I am willing to sacrifice my merits and use these 30,000 horses to break the Han army camp and force Zhuge Liang to retreat!" Zhou Yu said confidently.
"This is the best. Gongjin, you stay here while I go back to the city." Sun Ce also had a plan in mind and immediately said to Zhou Yu.
Zhou Yu said: "Congratulations to Your Majesty!"
Sun Ce nodded and said to Xu Sheng, "Come with me."
So, Xu Sheng followed Sun Ce and left.
In the Han army camp, Zhuge Liang received the letter sent by Zhou Yu. He opened it and took a look at it, then laughed and said, "Zhou Gongjin actually asked me to fight in a battle?"
Xu Jing said: "Prime Minister, Zhou Yu is the mainstay of the Wu Kingdom, and he is a brother-in-law with the Wu Emperor Sun Ce. If Zhou Yu can be defeated, it will create a great psychological contrast for the Wu army, which will be beneficial to our army."
"Well, sir, what you said makes sense. Fu Tong, Zhang Nan, Feng Xi, Liu Yan, and Fei Guan, come with me to go out and have a look. The others stay in the military camp!" Zhuge Liang said.
"Prime Minister, where am I?" Shamoko asked.
"Youyou need to take good care of your injuries. Fighting is not a test of martial arts. Your shoulder is seriously injured and you must take a good rest."
"This little injury is nothing, I just need to protect the Prime Minister." Samoko said.
"Hehe, no need, Zhou Yu can't hurt me."
Samoko¡¯s repeated requests were rejected by Zhuge Liang, and finally he was forcibly taken away to recuperate from his injuries. This was the end of the matter.
Not long after, Zhuge Liang led Fu Tong, Zhang Nan, Feng Xi, Liu Yan, Fei Guan and an army of 30,000 people out to confront the Wu army in the distance. Seeing that Zhou Yu was making a fish scale formation, he asked his subordinates to make a skip-shaped formation. The two armies faced each other, and the generals all rode forward. Zhuge Liang saw that Zhou Yu was riding alone, so he also rode forward on his horse.
After a while, the two people met each other. Seeing that Zhou Yu was injured, Zhuge Liang smiled and said: "Isn't this Sima Yi who used to pretend to be the Chinese army? I didn't expect it to be Zhou Gongjin, the governor of the Wu Kingdom. I wonder if that arrow was good. eat?"
Zhou Yu was not angry at Zhuge Liang's ridicule, and said: "Zhuge, I fell into a treacherous plot that day because of my carelessness. Today the two armies are facing each other. The competition is based on the formations, and only the 30,000 soldiers and horses behind me." I can capture you alive."
"What a loud tone, Governor Zhou, let's wait and see."
Zhou Yu was unhappy and pointed at Zhuge Liang and said, "Zhuge Liang, if any of us loses this time, we can put on women's clothes and walk around in front of thousands of troops. What do you think?"
"It's a deal!" Zhuge Liang agreed without hesitation.
?As the saying goes, it¡¯s too much to say anything without speculation. Zhuge Liang and Zhou Yu seemed to be natural rivals. There was a deep cold light in their eyes, and they both seemed to want to defeat the other through this battle.
The two men turned their horses' heads at the same time and returned to the camp at the same time. They began to gather their generals and gave instructions on how to deal with the opponent's formation.
Formation, simply put, is the field formation of the ancient army. It is the product of the development of human warfare to a certain historical stage and was popular in the cold weapon era. Died in the era of hot weapons.
In clan society, human wars manifested themselves as tribal conflicts, and there was no army at that time. There is no command. Most of the battles are swarmed, like a group fight, so there is no such thing as "formation".
With the development of history, slave countries emerged. In order to consolidate their rule and plunder slaves, slave owners began to form organized armies and adopt certain formations. This was the original "formation".
"Array" is in the process of the formation of the army. The results of ancient military science and tactics emerged because of the need to organize armies and command battles. Eastern war formations originated in China.
The earliest formation in China is said to have started from the Yellow Emperor. In order to defeat Chi You, Huangdi learned the formation from the gods, but this is just a legend, and the evidence can be tested in the late Shang Dynasty. The early formations were relatively simple. According to the organization of the "Three Divisions", they were arranged in a line or a square. The formation warfare method was extremely popular in the Western Zhou Dynasty and the Spring and Autumn Period. It was a common situation at that time: two armies were scheduled to fight at a certain place. The formations are in order, attacking each other
Formation drill is an important method of running an army in ancient times. Through drills, soldiers are taught the rules of advance and retreat, and the rules of gathering and dispersion, so that they can become familiar with various signals and commands, and be able to execute orders and prohibitions in a coordinated manner during battle. Only in this way can the overall combined force be exerted. Formation drills are an effective way to train a ragtag army into an army. The formations used by various military teams today are the remnants of ancient formation drills. Currently, all countries use Western-style queues. The original Eastern queues are no longer visible, but the basic principles are the same. The Western-style queue is more serious and orderly than the Eastern-style queue, and the conductor mostly uses passwords, while the Eastern-style queue mainly uses flags, gold, and drums.
China's military art attaches great importance to strategy, and formations are in a secondary position. This is because the scale of China's wars is relatively large. In wars that often involve "a thousand good generals and a hundred thousand armor", the army commander mainly conducts strategy and battles. In terms of high-level thinking, tactics come second. At the same time, because of respect for Confucianism and emphasis on literature over martial arts, there is not enough emphasis on the study of battle tactics.
However, Zhuge Liang,Yu Yu prefers the study of formations, believing that as long as there is a good formation, no matter how powerful the army is, it cannot be shaken. In addition, both Sima Yi and Pang Tong liked to study these formations and often studied the "Six Tao".
These four men were both military commanders and tactical commanders, and had to study formations intensively. Therefore, when Zhou Yu asked Zhuge Liang to fight in formations, Zhuge Liang agreed without even thinking. The purpose was to apply what he had learned in his life to war. Thus influencing the war.
It is not difficult to see from Zhuge Liang's particularity in setting up camp that Zhuge Liang has done a lot of research on battle formations. Zhou Yu is also a master in formations, otherwise he would never have noticed the shortcomings of Zhuge Liang's camp. Last night, there would not have been a classic example of Sun Ce leading 3,000 light cavalry to defeat 110,000 people.
On Wu Jun's side, Zhou Yu has roughly completed his deployment and ordered all the generals around him. What he has set up is the fish scale formation, which is a charge and attack formation. The fish scale formation, as its name suggests, divides the army into five or six sections, layered one above the other, just like the scales on a fish. After the general is located in the formation, the main troops are assembled in the center and divided into a number of small square formations shaped like fish scales. They are arranged in echelons and have a slightly convex front end. This is an offensive formation. The main tactical idea is, "central breakthrough".
Zhuge Liang was stunned because he first saw Zhou Yu setting up this offensive fish-scale formation, so he arranged a skip-shaped formation.
The Ji-shaped formation is actually a W-shaped formation with an inverted V in it. The cleverness lies here. The inverted V in it is mostly long-distance attack units such as archers and crossbowmen, so it can provide cover for the attack. However, because of the clever arrangement, , so you won¡¯t hit your own people from the front, but unfortunately there is an inverted V in the middle, so you can¡¯t surround them and attack together. Therefore, it is a flat formation developed from the wild goose formation with a low casualty rate, and is a defensive formation.
This means that Zhuge Liang took the defensive in the first round. Instead, let Zhou Yu be the active attacker. He did this because of the actual situation. They had just suffered heavy losses last night, and the soldiers were exhausted, so their attack power would be slightly insufficient, so it would be more practical to take a defensive stance.
As long as he can defend Zhou Yu's fish scale formation's stepped continuous attacks, he will be the winner.
The two armies faced each other, and the arrangements were completely arranged. Fu Tong, Feng Xi, Zhang Nan, Fei Guan, and Liu Yan under Zhuge Liang were in their respective positions, and each of them was responsible for commanding a part of the troops. And he completely retreated to the back of the army, asked someone to bring a carriage, and sat on the carriage to watch.
¡°Dong dong dong¡¡±
At this time, Wu Jun beat the first war drum. Wu Jun's shield soldiers in the first echelon formation were ready, and Ling Cao led the cavalry in the second echelon formation. They were also ready to make up for the first echelon formation at any time. The troops are insufficient.
¡°Dong dong dong¡¡±
Wu Jun beat the war drum for the second time, and the two echelon formations behind Ling Cao were also ready and ready to go.
The war is about to break out, and the battle between Zhou Yu and Zhuge Liang will officially begin. Just when the two armies were facing each other. A group of more than ten cavalrymen quietly climbed up a high slope. The leader picked up the telescope and looked from a distance. He saw that the Wu army and the Han army had different formations. He said calmly: "It's just the right time. This is a wonderful battle that you shouldn't miss. The battle between these two heroes, Zhuge Kongming and Zhou Gongjin, will be revealed today."
The person who spoke was none other than Sima Yi, the general of the Huaxia Kingdom in the South. Last night he received a message from Chen Wu, saying that Zhuge Liang first surrendered to the Wu army and then rebelled against the Wu army. Changsha City is being surrounded. Although he knew this was a trick made out of nothing, he still came over at starry night. I just want to see who is more powerful between Zhuge Liang and Zhou Yu.
Of course, Wu general Chen Wu was detained by him in the army. Moreover, he also marched lightly, bringing only Niu Jin and thirteen cavalry, and a group of fifteen cavalry arrived secretly.
"General, this place is too close to Wu Jun. If Wu Jun discovers us, we won't be able to escape even if we want to." Niu Jin looked around and felt that this place was too close to the battlefield and was a bit unsafe.
Sima Yi said: "Don't worry, the Wu army and the Han army have all their attention focused on the battle formation, no one will pay attention to us at all, and no one would have expected that we would come from two hundred miles away overnight, but Just to watch the game.¡±
"General, isn't it just a battle formation? What's there to see?" Niu Jin asked in confusion.
"Haha, I will let you slowly understand the subtleties of the formation in the future" At this point, Sima Yi suddenly saw something unusual through the telescope. He saw that Zhou Yu's fish scale formation was very cleverly arranged, and it actually combined three The infantrymen holding shields were placed on the first step, and the cavalry with high mobility were placed on the second step. They couldn't help but exclaimed, "Huh? What does Zhou Yu mean by this?"
Looking at the Han army's Ji-shaped formation, among the 30,000-strong army, there were actually only 2,000 cavalry. The rest were all archers, crossbowmen and spearmen. It was a formation dominated by infantry. See this, sir??Yi finally understood why Zhou Yu arranged it like this. He smiled knowingly, opened the telescope into the distance, and saw the figures of people shaking on the Changsha City. Many soldiers actually descended from the high wall. There were many flags on the city, but the guards were relatively sparse. He couldn't help but feel that there was one more person. Eyes of mind.
"General, the formation is in front, why are you looking to the side and behind?" Niu Jin asked as he watched Sima Yi start to pay attention to him coming from Changsha City.
Sima Yi held the telescope and saw clearly what was going on in Changsha City. After putting down the telescope, he thought about it for a while, then picked up the telescope again to look. He saw a forest in the north of Changsha City shaking constantly. The still trees were covered with snow, but now they all fell down, as if someone was passing through the woods.
After taking a closer look, he discovered something unusual. He saw a group of soldiers wearing white cloaks walking cautiously in the dense forest. The leader was actually Sun Ce.
When he saw this, Sima Yi hurriedly moved the telescope to the Han army camp, but saw that the northern end and rear of the Han army camp were empty, and most of the soldiers gathered around the front army to watch the fun. After watching all this, a smile appeared on his face and he said to himself: "Zhuge Liang will definitely lose in this battle. He is still too young to face the experienced Zhou Yu. Zhuge Liang does seem a bit too young. "
After hearing this, Niu Jin asked: "General, how do you know that Zhuge Liang will be defeated?"
¡°Secret.¡± Sima Yi said with a smile.
Niu Jin thought about it. Feeling something was wrong, he asked: "General. Zhuge Liang is going to surrender to our army. His troops will belong to our Huaxia Kingdom from now on. Since the General expects that Zhuge Liang will be defeated, should we stop this situation from happening?" After all, if someone dies, our country will lose one soldier"
Sima Yi looked at Niu Jin with confusion on his face, patted Niu Jin on the shoulder and said, "I just want Zhuge Liang to be defeated this time. The more people he kills, the better."
"Whywhy?" Niu Jin said in surprise.
"Zhuge Liang is too confident. Overconfidence is arrogance. He has more than 100,000 troops and horses under his command. After surrendering to our army, he will inevitably ask for command of the original troops, which is not good for our country. Therefore, in this battle, he lost The worse it is, the better. It would be better if the whole army is wiped out. In this way, Zhuge Liang loses his trump card and can only be at the mercy of the emperor. "
"That's great, General. Why didn't my subordinates think of this?" Niu Jin worshiped.
"If you had thought about it, how could I be your general?" A sinister smile appeared on Sima Yi's face.
¡°Dong dong dong¡¡±
At this moment, the third war drum sounded. A roaring sound came from the huge battlefield, and the Wu army's first-tier formation rushed forward quickly. Everyone held up a shield to protect their bodies and pressed against the Han army's formation.
After Sima Yi heard this voice, he quickly took out his telescope, looked towards the battlefield, and said to Niu Jin: "Watch carefully. In this battle, Zhou Yu will completely defeat Wolong."
"No!" Niu Jin is just a young general. Moreover, there are only a handful of telescopes in China, and not many are manufactured. The main reason is that crystals are difficult to find. If you cannot find crystal mines, you cannot polish the telescope. The crystal mine was accidentally discovered before, and it was purely due to China's bad luck, but the quantity was very small. Therefore, telescopes are usually issued to officers of the third rank or above. Niu Jin is only an officer of the fourth rank now, two levels behind.
Therefore, Niu Jin and others could only watch from a distance, looking around, watching the ants-like black mass of people begin to rush forward.
Sima Yi can only see the details, but Niu Jin and others can only see the general outline.
The first wave of three thousand infantrymen holding shields from the Wu army rushed forward. The Han army immediately fired thousands of arrows. The crossbowmen pulled the trigger and released the crossbow arrows, while the archers opened their bows and arrows, looked up to the sky and fired, performing a direct strike. The sword and shield soldiers stayed at their posts with sharp eyes, while the pike soldiers held their spears tightly in their hands and stood ready.
The battle started, and Wu Jun's three thousand shield soldiers rushed forward very fast. These were infantrymen who had experienced battles for a long time. They used their shields to cover their vital points while rushing forward quickly. But the arrows were merciless, and many arrows seemed to have eyes, falling directly on the feet or legs of the Wu soldiers. Some soldiers who were hit by arrows fell to the ground, then reluctantly got up, and then rushed forward.
The first wave of arrows fell, and more than 200 Wu Jun's 3,000 shield soldiers were injured. More than 200 people fell behind, but the rest were unscathed.
Immediately afterwards, the Han army fired a second wave of arrows. This time, the density was much greater than the first. The wave of arrows shot over and immediately killed more than 200 Wu soldiers and more than 300 soldiers. Injured, but still continuing to rush forward.
The third and fourth waves of arrows came one after another, densely.The numb arrows covered the sky and blocked out the sun, like countless flying locusts, taking the lives of the Wu army soldiers.
In the Wu Jun camp, Ling Cao could no longer hold himself in any longer. He turned around and glanced at Zhou Yu. Seeing Zhou Yu frowning and not speaking, he shouted: "Captain, charge!"
"Wait a minute! Wait until the first echelon formation rushes to the front of the Han army's formation!" Zhou Yu was also very worried, but he had his own plans and must not change his strategy easily. At least those who rushed over would die in vain. Otherwise, you will lose the entire battle!
When the Han army fired the fifth wave of arrows, only less than a thousand soldiers in the first echelon of the Wu army were intact, but it was these less than a thousand shield soldiers and the daredevils behind who fought with pain and injuries. The soldiers charged in front of the Han army, raised their swords and slashed at the Han army's shield soldiers.
"Boom!"
After a loud noise, the two armies finally met each other. At this time, Ling Cao's second-tier cavalry formation rushed out completely, with everyone lying on their horses and galloping quickly. While the shield soldiers of the front army were holding back the Han army, they charged and killed them.
The third echelon formation followed closely, followed by another wave of infantry holding shields. The fourth echelon formation is ready.
Zhou Yu watched the entire battle and saw that most of the people on the first step were killed. But it couldn't cause much harm to the Han army. He couldn't help but frowned, hoping that Ling Cao could create some miracles.
Zhuge Liang also had an insight into the entire battlefield from the rear, and saw that the Wu army kept attacking. The first wave of infantry came fiercely, killing many soldiers standing on the front line, while the second wave of Wu troops rushed over quickly. One wave consisted of five thousand cavalry. Everyone was lying on the back of the horse. No one could be seen, only the horse's head was moving up and down, and the ground was shaking when it galloped.
He hurriedly ordered a change of formation, and the W-shaped battle formation immediately split into two sides and turned into two V-shaped battle formations. At the same time, the two thousand cavalry hidden behind the inverted V of the original W-shaped battle formation quickly dispatched and began to trample them unscrupulously. There were hundreds of Wu army infantry remaining in front of the first battle formation.
The advantage of cavalry over infantry is obvious, so the Han cavalry was dispatched. He immediately surrounded the remaining hundreds of Wu army shield soldiers, and at the same time, the pike soldiers were also dispatched. Two thousand pikemen quickly rushed to the front line with spears more than ten feet long. The spears were pointed outwards in unison. Each soldier was at a distance from each other. After spreading out, they were like a thorny city wall, hoping to use this to resist the Wu army's cavalry. impact.
The dispersed crossbowmen of the Han army also began to take up their positions, and began to aim at the rushing Ling Cao and others. After giving the order, they released arrows one after another.
Among the thirty thousand troops of the Han army. There are only 10,000 people with just crossbowmen. What a powerful lineup this is. Under the dense arrows, there must be very few cavalry who can rush over.
Ling Cao lay on his horse. Seeing the Han army's arrow formation rising again, they immediately shouted: "Disperse!"
After giving the order, the five thousand cavalry immediately divided into two sides and dispersed to the left and right wings.
¡°Whoosh whoosh whoosh¡¡±
Half of the locust-like arrows hit the ground, and the cavalry led by Ling Cao also damaged more than a thousand horses. But the strange thing is that when these horses fell to the ground, the knights could not be seen. When the cavalry dispersed Only then did some knights come into view. It turned out that the cavalry behind them had already left their mounts. Under the cover of their mounts, they took off the round shields they were carrying on their backs, took out the repeating crossbows tied to their waists, and directly transformed into The infantrymen continued to rush forward.
Behind them was a third wave of 5,000 infantrymen, pressing up all at once.
Ling Cao and other more than 3,000 cavalry dispersed on both sides and quickly opened the distance between the two wings to avoid the Han army's spear-lined battle formation. At the same time, he also wanted to attract the attention of the Han army's archers and let them follow him in shooting arrows.
Zhuge Liang was slightly surprised when he saw such a scene, and hurriedly ordered another formation change. At this time, the Han cavalry had basically cleared away the first wave of Wu soldiers, and retreated together with the spearmen. The two V-shaped battle formations moved closer to the middle, with the shield soldiers blocking the first line and the crossbowmen in the second line. The fourth line of archers, pikemen were scattered on both sides, and the cavalry surrounded Zhuge Liang. The W-shaped Ji-shaped formation was formed again, forming a defensive wall.
After Zhou Yu on the opposite side saw this situation, he ordered the remaining fourth wave of cavalry and fifth wave of infantry to rush out at the same time. The cavalry was just a tool to cover the approach of the infantry. In this battle, it also served to attract the attention of the enemy archers. strength, so at this station, Zhou Yu mainly used infantry, and the cavalry only cooperated with the battle. But if the two armies really collide, the cavalry will detour behind and directly attack Zhuge Liang's command point.
After five waves of attack formations were drawn out, Zhou Yu only had more than a hundred cavalry left, and all his troops had been mobilized.Above all, we strive to decide the outcome in one battle.
Seeing such a scene, Zhuge Liang felt quite stressed. Just when he was about to order a change of formation, he suddenly heard a cry from the rear of the camp. When he looked back, he saw a fire in the rear camp, and the left camp suffered a violent attack. During the attack, Sun Ce, wearing golden armor and a golden helmet, holding a blood-drinking gun and wearing a white cloak, led thousands of Wu soldiers to fight out of the dense forest.
As soon as he saw this, Zhuge Liang suddenly realized that Zhou Yu was too cunning this time. The invitation to fight with him was a lie, but the sneak attack on the camp was real. He resented that he was young, energetic and overconfident, and fell into Zhou Yu's tricks for a while. At this time, the camp was in chaos, attracting countless soldiers on the battlefield to watch, and the fire spread quickly. The Wu army was excited, the Han army was panicked, and the advantages and disadvantages were immediately revealed.
"Retreat! Retreat quickly!" Zhuge Liang saw this. He yelled hastily.
At this moment, Ling Cao and his cavalry suddenly turned their horses and made a gesture. The second wave of Wu army's cavalry, which detoured back to the two wings, immediately rushed towards Zhuge Liang.
Ling Cao took the lead and launched his spear. He led hundreds of followers directly into the Han army's camp. The archers panicked and scattered. Zhang Nan led the crowd to resist, but was stabbed to death by him. The Han army dispersed, but the Ling army was reduced. Fuck the trouble, a rush. Then he cut a bloody path and went directly to Zhuge Liang.
Seeing Ling Cao's men attacking from both sides, the cavalry around Zhuge Liang protected Zhuge Liang and retreated into the camp. Xu Jing led his troops to greet him and blocked the gate of the camp. Ling Cao fought bravely and was invincible, leaving corpses everywhere he went. Xu Jing and other soldiers were all frightened and retreated when they saw that they could not resist.
At the same time, Zhou Yu also pulled out the long sword from his waist. With a loud shout of "Jia", he shouted loudly: "The thief will be broken today, sons and gentlemen of the Kingdom of Wu. Come with me. Revenge those who have been grievances, and those who kill Zhuge Liang will be granted the title of Marquis of Ten Thousand Households!"
Under a heavy reward, there must be a brave man. The Wu army shared the same enemy and worked hard to achieve consecutive defeats in the past few months. They had already suppressed their anger. Today I saw that the Han army camp was attacked, and my emperor personally rushed behind and led his troops to kill them. Most of the governors were wounded and went into battle, and they were all deeply moved. With the shouts, their courage doubled, and they rushed towards the Han army.
The Han army had come from afar and was out of men and horses. They were attacked again last night. Today, they wanted to use the fighting formation to improve their morale. However, they didn't know that their own camp was set on fire. Moreover, the mountains and plains were filled with Wu troops. Under attack from both front and rear, The Wu army had long been frightened. As soon as Wu Jun launched a general attack, they immediately dispersed and fled towards the camp for refuge. However, at this time, more than 2,000 cavalry led by Ling Cao were chasing Zhuge Liang, and there was chaos inside the camp. The rear camp was on fire, and the left camp was under fierce attack. The soldiers fled towards the front army. Sun Ce happened to lead his troops to pursue them, and they all headed towards the central army.
Zhuge Liang has never commanded such a large battle. There are problems in troop dispatch and manning. The key is that this is a tired division. Moreover, the military strength is almost the same as that of Wu Jun, so there is no advantage. Moreover, Wu Jun's weapons, The equipment was much higher than that of the Han army. After comparison, Zhuge Liang made a serious mistake.
Before he became an official, he liked to compete with Pang Tong in private battles, but that was only when they were evenly matched, and in a square place as big as a palm, both of them could see the overall situation from the air. But now, he is commanding an army of more than 100,000 people. This is the first time he has encountered such a scene. He wanted to take this opportunity to defeat Zhou Yu and make himself famous at the same time. Who would have thought that there would be This result?
In front of him, Sun Ce led his troops to kill, and the sky was dark and the earth was dark. He quickly broke out a bloody path, looking at Zhuge Liang with a spring breeze, as if he was already in Sun Ce's pocket. Behind, Ling Cao also pursued fiercely. Although many cavalrymen risked their lives to cut off the rear, they could not withstand Ling Cao's attack.
There are obstacles in front of him and ghosts behind him. Zhuge Liang really seems to have fallen into a bottomless pit. Moreover, although there are many Han troops, they are all taking refuge, and no one pays attention to him at all. Just when he felt that he was desperate, he saw Shamoko coming over with a group of men and horses. Everyone was wearing rattan armor and riding war horses. As soon as they came out, they intercepted Ling Cao's attack.
The vine-armored cavalry rushed out and immediately showed the potential to turn the tide. Shamoko fought with injuries and forced Ling Cao back with a slash. He hurriedly rode his horse to Zhuge Liang's side and shouted loudly: "Prime Minister, follow me!" "
At the critical moment, Zhuge Liang saw Shamoke coming to kill him. As if he had taken a reassurance, he followed Shamoke without hesitation. Zhuge Liang quickly ran out of the right camp with thousands of vine armor soldiers escorting him.
Sun Ce, Ling Cao and others continued to fight, but they were a little annoyed when they saw Zhuge Liang escape.
"Ling Cao and Xu Sheng are holding the battle!" After Sun Ce shouted this, he was reluctant to give up on Zhuge Liang. He wanted to capture him alive, so he followed closely with two hundred cavalrymen. His horses galloped wildly, and his spears danced. DispositionAll the Han troops fled.
Soon, Sun Ce caught up with Zhuge Liang's group of vine-armored cavalry. Sun Ce knew that the vine-armored soldiers were invulnerable, so he fired all his spears at the faces of the vine-armored cavalry. He stabbed one to death with one shot and killed more than a dozen people in a row. Seeing that Sun Ce was unstoppable, the vine-armored cavalry were frightened and dispersed one after another.
"Zhuge Kongming, where are you going!" Sun Ce's horse ran very fast, gradually getting further and further away from his men, and the vine-armored cavalry in front did not dare to block the way.
Zhuge Liang turned around suddenly, but saw Sun Ce charging forward single-handedly and getting closer and closer to him. He couldn't help but feel a little fear in his heart. He slapped the horse's butt and shouted loudly: "You evil beast, run away!" !¡±
At the critical moment, Shamoko hurriedly reined in the horse, pulled the reins, and turned the horse's head. He held the thorn-free caltrop bone in his hand, which looked like a big iron pestle. He held the big iron pestle in his hand like that, his whole body trembled, his eyes widened, and his whole body's aura was fully displayed. He stood behind Zhuge Liang and shouted loudly to his subordinates: "Escort the prime minister away, and I will block the pursuers myself." !¡±
After giving the order, Zhuge Liang, guarded by ten vine-armored cavalry, ran forward quickly. Shamoko spurred his horse forward, roared, and rushed towards Sun Ce with the big iron pestle in his hand.
When Sun Ce saw this, he snorted coldly and shouted loudly: "You are not overestimating your own capabilities! Get out of the way!"
Samoko was not willing to dodge. Although he was shot in the right shoulder last night, fortunately he was left-handed, and all his strength was on his left arm. At this time, his right hand was barely holding the horse's rein, and his left hand was holding the big iron pestle, and he was angrily using violent force. The blow hit Sun Ce directly on the head.
Sun Ce had been on guard for a long time. He suddenly jumped up from his horse and flew into the air. Samoko's big iron pestle directly hit Sun Ce's horse. With such great force, it hit him all at once. , the war horse immediately screamed and fell to the ground dead.
However, Samoko's big iron pestle could no longer be withdrawn, and Sun Ce put away a spear in mid-air and stabbed him. The blood-drinking spear Samoke saw was very familiar to him, and he couldn't help being surprised. He had injured him last night. He is the one who uses this gun.
"It turns out it's you!" Shamoko was also smarter. Seeing that the situation was not good, he immediately pulled out a short knife from his waist and directly blocked the tip of the blood-drinking gun. However, due to the great force of Sun Ce's blow, he single-handedly His hands were unable to resist, and instead the short knife was directly attached to the rattan armor on his body. He was hit hard and fell off the horse.
At this time, Sun Ce also fell on Shamoko's horse. In order to catch up with Zhuge Liang, Sun Ce gave up the opportunity to kill Shamoko, and put his feet lightly on the horse's back of Shamoko's horse. He immediately jumped forward, kicked off a cavalryman next to him, and continued to chase Zhuge Liang on the cavalryman's horse.
"Zhuge Kongming!" Sun Ce rushed to catch up. No one dared to stop him wherever he passed. Even if someone came to stop him, he would be shot in the throat.
Zhuge Liang was running for his life when he suddenly heard Sun Ce shouting again from behind, but Shamoko couldn't resist Sun Ce at all. He had finally seen the reputation of this little overlord today, and the ten vine-armored cavalry around him tried to stop him. Sun Ce was killed by all of them. When he saw Sun Ce's eyes full of anger and his face full of murderous intent, he couldn't help shouting in his heart: "Is it possible that I, Zhuge Liang, will die here?"
He was not good at riding, he could barely ride a horse, but now that he was running down, he felt extremely uncomfortable.
Suddenly, the horse under his seat stumbled. Zhuge Liang stumbled and was knocked off the horse. He fell heavily on the snow, causing a dog to chew on the mud. His whole face was buried in the snow nest.
When Sun Ce saw this, he was overjoyed and galloped towards Zhuge Liang without even taking off his saddle. (To be continued)
