Chapter 75 Sudden Attack
In July of the first year of Yong'an (304), the weather was as hot as fire and extremely muggy.
Sima Yue, King of the East China Sea, suddenly reduced the frequency of meetings. What's more, from time to time he took his staff out of the city to visit mountains and rivers, recite poems and compose poems.
There were gatherings in Beijing one after another, and many poems and poems were recited. Looking at the author again, hehe, he was either a famous person in Luoyang or a staff member of the Yue government.
Shi Chao, who stayed behind in Luoyang, heard this and secretly laughed.
Sima Yue was only successful at this point.
Therefore, he felt more at ease living in Jinguyuan. Not to mention, living in the mountains is comfortable in the summer.
On the fifth day of July, the Luoyang Chinese Army and the Donghai Kingdom Army went out of the city for another drill.
This is not surprising. In the past few months, they have been going out of the city regularly. After all, there is not so much open space in the city for them to practice.
After Mi Huang, Shao Xun and others arrived at Mangshan, they practiced normally for a day.
On the second day, the entire army broke out of camp and returned to Luoyang.
Mi Huang was already in charge of Luoyang's defense affairs.
According to the plan, Sili Colonel Man Fen and the soldiers of the Forbidden Army general Miao Yuan are all under his command. The former has 3,000 soldiers, most of whom are new recruits, while the latter has only 2,000, who are also new recruits. They are currently retired from the Forbidden Army veterans. Assist with training.
Including the Eastern Navy, a total of eight thousand troops, this is the entire force left in Luoyang.
Shao Xun didn't think Mi Huang could really command Man Fen and Miao Yuan's troops, but at this point, he could only do his best. Anyway, he had various plans in mind.
At the beginning of the hour, the royal army was approaching Daxia Gate.
Shao Xun put on the armor with the help of Chen Yougen.
He looked at the two hundred and thirty well-armored warriors standing behind him and said nothing.
The war has already begun.
According to Sikong's deployment, each general led his troops and raided Shi Chao's troops.
Among them, General Gou Xi led six thousand imperial troops to attack Jingu Garden. It would be best to kill Shi Chao. If he escapes, chase him on horseback and prevent him from returning to Luoyang.
With the general absent, the soldiers are naturally distracted. At this time, rumors will spread everywhere, and they all feel that they have been left as cannon fodder, and they have no intention of fighting. What's more, these Ye soldiers are guarding twelve city gates, and military discipline has been weakened in the past six months. He only specializes in extortion and has become so depraved that he is suitable for a surprise attack.
Wang Hu, who once took refuge in Yecheng, will also "return to justice". In order to keep it secret, Wang Hu has not yet announced it to his more than 8,000 soldiers, and has only mentioned it among a few close generals.
That's enough.
After the raid was launched, Shi Chao, as a former Forbidden Army soldier, had the strongest force left in Luoyang. Even if they did not fight back and just stood by and did nothing, it would be enough to cause a fundamental reversal of the situation.
The task of the 3,000 men of the East China Sea Kingdom Army is to attack the Daxia Gate.
Yesterday, when they left the city for training, Mi Huang ordered to select 200 elite and brave men from the entire army. They were armed to the teeth with armor and swords, and were led by Lieutenant Sima Shaoxun. They were selected as the vanguard to attack first.
The remaining two thousand or so people followed, waiting for the vanguard to stun the enemy, then march forward with great noise and defeat the enemy in one fell swoop - judging from their level of training, they were about the same as the Ye soldiers, so that was all they could do.
At first, Mi Huang actually wanted to attack with the whole army and swarm forward. However, Shao Xun did not trust the overall combat effectiveness of the Royal Army and insisted on selecting elites to serve as sharp swords. After the road ahead was leveled, the main force would be allowed to come up and fight with the wind.
Most of the elites came from the lower army, and fifty or sixty people were selected from the Donghai soldiers of the upper army, totaling two hundred.
Shao Xun gave them a name: Tujiang.
The name "Tujiang" originally came from Zhuge Liang's "The Later Discipline": "Since I arrived in Hanzhong, in the middle of the year, I lost Zhao Yun, Yang Qun, Ma Yu, Yan Zhi, Ding Li, Bai Shou, Liu He, Deng Tong, etc.
As for Qu Chang, there are more than seventy garrison generals, sudden generals, Wuqian, Jisou, Qingqiang, scattered cavalry, and more than a thousand armed cavalry..."
In fact, it is the designation of the army. As the name suggests, it is probably the army that breaks out of the formation.
Mi Huang's eyes widened when he heard the name.
Shao Langjun, were you careless or did you do it on purpose?
Of course, Shao Xun didn't have any thoughts like "I, the new era venture capital target, make money quickly", he simply thought the name sounded good and borrowed it without thinking.
Yesterday, the 200 assault generals and 30 training team soldiers conducted many drills. By now, they had polished their swords, guns, swords and halberds, strung their bows, and all were wearing armor. Before leaving, each of them drank a bowl of wine to ensure the assault.
Courage doubles when you charge - make sure you are on top when charging.
"Today's breakthrough is just a matter of death." After Shao Xun put on his fine armor, he turned around and looked at everyone, and said: "It's still the same old rules, if the sergeant escapes, the corps commander will kill him; if the corps commander escapes, the sergeant will behead him; if the sergeant flees, he will be killed."
, the leader of the team beheads him; if the leader of the team escapes, I will kill him myself. If I escape, you will behead me immediately."
"No!" Everyone said in unison, suppressing their voices.
This place was no more than twenty steps away from Daxia Gate, and the guard sergeant was impatiently urging them to enter the city quickly.
Shao Xun gave them a cruel look.
The damn feeling came again, I was eager to try the heavy sword and wanted to drink blood.
The innate embryokiller can no longer suppress his inner desire and cannot vent it on women, so he should use killing to relieve it.
I am a born Khorne pervert!
"Where is the sudden general?" Shao Xun stood first, raised his sword high, and shouted.
"The sudden general is here!" More than 200 people drew their swords and shouted in response.
This seemed to be a signal for a surprise attack. Chen Yougen took a few steps forward with thirty people, firing crossbow arrows in succession.
Li Chong also brought more than forty archers, who were distributed on both sides, picking up bows and arrows.
Caught off guard and waiting to blackmail the people, the merchants' Ye soldiers fell down in droves, screaming in agony.
"Kill!" More than two hundred people surged forward and rushed straight to Daxia Gate.
Chen Yougen and his teaching team abandoned their crossbows, held heavy swords in their hands, and charged directly into the city gate cave.
Shao Xun led two hundred generals and rushed straight to the right, arriving at a camp covered with moss and hung with clothes hanging to dry.
The suspension bridge was standing in the camp, and there were three or five soldiers in front of the trench gate, hiding in the shade to rest. When they saw the group of soldiers rushing into the camp along the suspension bridge, they were stunned on the spot.
No one pays attention to them, as long as they don't seek death.
Shao Xun, wearing golden armor, took the lead and ran directly into a dozen Ye soldiers who were patrolling. He swung his heavy sword and slashed them repeatedly.
In the rain of blood, arms, heads, and thighs fell all over the ground.
He was like a humanoid weapon. Relying on the excellent protection of the armor given by the emperor, he opened and closed the heavy sword widely. After getting close to the spearmen, there was almost no enemy left.
The surprise generals were greatly inspired by the sight. They followed Shao Xun with their spears, axes, halberds, and ring-headed knives, and scattered one group after another of neat enemy soldiers.
People poured out of each barracks one after another. Before they knew what was going on, they were attacked by archers led by Li Zhong.
The arrows shot through the air and easily penetrated the body without armor protection, causing screams one after another.
Li Chong, who was born in the Luoyang Central Army, knew how to fight. His eyes repeatedly patrolled the chaotic battlefield, and he would shoot wherever he saw a crowd of people.
Just left the barracks? Shoot! I made you afraid to go out for a while.
Running around and bumping into each other? Shoot! Drive them in another direction. Don't let several groups of people gather together and have the courage to resist.
Someone is trying to beat drums to gather troops? Shoot!
Someone shouted to the soldiers to come closer to him? Shoot!
It is really rare to have such a clear-headed subordinate with the ability to read the battlefield.
He really knows what he should do and how to cooperate with his colleagues.
But there were indeed many enemies. They only had about forty archers. In addition to taking the advantage at the beginning and causing a lot of damage, they were quickly discovered.
Some enemy archers even fought back, causing some casualties on our side.
"Where is the sudden general?" Shao Xun shouted after cutting off a military academy's head with his sword and boarding a baggage truck.
His golden armor was very dazzling in the sun and he was easily seen.
"The sudden general is here!" The soldiers easily caught Shao Sima's figure and responded one after another, then approached his direction and reunited the somewhat scattered formation.
"Kill!" Shao Xun rushed out of the vehicle, pointing his sword in the direction of the attack.
Wearing gold armor is not without reason.
Such flashy equipment can easily become a magnet for arrows on the battlefield, but it can also be easily seen by our own soldiers, which can be said to have advantages and disadvantages.
The moment he boarded the carriage, several long arrows struck him.
He avoided one, knocked one away, and another one stuck directly into his armor.
It didn't go deep into the flesh, it was just a flesh wound, but it hurt so much that he was so angry that he rushed straight towards the enemy archer.
"Die!" He shouldered the golden armor, slashed with the heavy sword, and jumped into the crowd of enemy spearmen.
"Puff! Puff!" After being slashed to the left and right, the two headless corpses fell to the ground.
The spearmen retreated one after another, trying to distance themselves and take advantage of their spears.
But you are approached by a swordsman and you still want to escape?
"Poof!" The heavy sword struck a military academy member's neck, and when he pulled it sideways, he could hear the sound of the blade cutting into flesh and bone.
"Ah!" The military school's body fell limply to the ground. He was still alive for a moment. He subconsciously covered the wound with his hands to prevent blood from splattering out, but the more he covered it, the more blood...
"Whoosh!" Another arrow shot out and stuck in Shao Xun's shoulder.
Fuck you, uncle!
Shao Xun was furious. After killing one person with his sword, he chased after him with his heavy sword.
The archer was a little panicked. He wanted to shoot, but it seemed a little too late. The golden armored warrior was so fierce, like a bloody man. Wherever he killed, his limbs were broken off and his arms were flying everywhere.
After hesitating for a moment, there was really not enough time to pick up the bow and arrow a second time, so he turned around and ran away.
"Dare you run?" Shao Xun chased after him.
An enemy soldier subconsciously waved his sword and struck the golden armor.
Shao Xun kicked him away and continued to pursue.
Another spearman stepped forward, seemingly wanting to protect the archer.
Shao Xun avoided the stabbing and slashed diagonally with his sword, causing Dahao's head to rise into the sky.
You don't even have armor, so you dare to block me?
"Da da..." The military boots stepped on the blood, and he approached the archer step by step.
This man is still on the run and does not dare to look back.
"Bang!" Another person blocked the road, and Shao Xun knocked him away.
The archer had fled to a corner and had nowhere to go, so he could only turn around in despair.
"Death!" Shao Xun smiled ferociously and slashed down with his heavy sword.
The archer ducked sideways, but his arm was cut off at the elbow.
"Ah!" he screamed miserably.
"Can I still shoot arrows?" Shao Xun laughed loudly, pulled out the arrow that the man shot at him, and inserted it forcefully into the archer's open mouth.
The screams stopped abruptly.
Time seemed to stand still for a moment.
Even on a chaotic and bloody battlefield, such a ferocious killing method left many people stunned.
I just shot him with an arrow, but he was chased into a corner and tortured to death.
Should you avoid him?
