Chapter 3291 burn all food and supplies
But after Jiangdong Army's cavalry entered the city, it was not easy to drive them out.
More than two thousand Jiaozhou troops faced the cavalry led by Zhou Tai. After Zhou Tai led the cavalry into the city, he wanted to defeat the enemy army in the shortest possible time. In this case, the Jiangdong army that subsequently entered the city would encounter less resistance.
.
Generals who have experienced many wars must understand the truth. If they use the most elite force to break the enemy's formation, the subsequent arriving army will be able to cause even more painful losses to the enemy. In this case, the Jiangdong Army will be able to
Capture Cangwu County at the minimum cost.
Knowing that he should open the city gate to welcome the army into the city, Zhou Tai naturally thought of capturing Guangxin City at the expense of fewer soldiers' lives.
After the two armies met, Zhou Tai squinted his eyes and looked at the army on the opposite side. He already had a plan in mind. These armies must be from the army in the city. Judging from their formation, they clearly came to fight in a hurry. Such
As long as the army can successfully attack their central army and defeat the central army in one fell swoop, they can be defeated.
After thinking about this, Zhou Tai showed a cold smile on his face, waved his long sword and shouted: "Jiang Dong Erlang, follow my general to kill the enemy."
The war horses rumbled, Zhou Tai held a long sword, and headed towards the Jiaozhou Army. Against the backdrop of the fire, the cavalry following Zhou Tai felt that Zhou Tai's figure was getting taller and taller. As the main general in the army, when facing the war,
, being able to take the lead in charging, this alone is far beyond what ordinary generals can do. More generals in the army are still extremely concerned about their own lives when facing wars. They don't want to be like this.
died in the battle.
Zhou Tai, the commander-in-chief, behaves like this. Why don't the soldiers of Jiangdong Army come forward to kill you?
The shouts of the cavalry were loud. Behind Zhou Tai, they raised their weapons and looked at the officers and soldiers of the Jiaozhou Army, filled with anger.
It was obviously impossible to stop the charge of a thousand cavalry with the strength of more than 2,000 infantry. The soldiers of the Jiaozhou Army showed fear when the cavalry charged towards them.
The battle between infantry and cavalry tests not only the strength of the infantry, but also the courage of the infantry. Facing the charge of many cavalry, ordinary infantry already feel fear even without fighting. In this case, how can
Able to block cavalry charges.
Having led cavalry in battles all year round, Zhou Tai naturally understood the characteristics of cavalry.
Under the charge of the cavalry, the Jiaozhou Army's formation dispersed directly to both sides, just like a long sword cutting through the waves, directly driving away the Jiaozhou Army's formation.
Chen Xiang was shocked when he saw this. The cavalry had the ability to influence a war on the battlefield. He did not expect that these cavalry would have such power after charging. Just relying on the impact, the Jiaozhou Army lost their fighting spirit.
.
"The cavalry comes forward." Chen Xiang shouted.
There were also thousands of cavalry in the Jiaozhou Army. When the soldiers left, they took away 500 cavalry. At this time, there were still 500 cavalry in the Jiaozhou Army. This was Chen Xi's biggest reliance in leading the army against the Jiangdong Army.
Well, if our own cavalry cannot defeat the enemy's cavalry in a battle, the situation will be even more critical for the Jiangdong Army.
Chen Xi knew the consequences of losing Cangwu County. Even if the scholar family defected to the Jin State, there was a huge difference between having Cangwu County and losing Cangwu County.
Chen Xiang didn't want to die in this battle, so what he had to do was try his best to stop Jiangdong Army's attack.
Seeing that there were cavalry coming from the Jiaozhou Army, Zhou Tai's expression showed disdain. No matter what kind of resistance the Jiaozhou Army had, it was obviously impossible to escape from this battle. Zhou Tai was
It is necessary to use the power of elite cavalry to defeat the Jiaozhou Army's support, improve the morale of the Jiangdong Army, and capture Cangwu County at the same time.
As long as Zhou Tai led the cavalry into the city, the battle was basically determined. No army in Guangxin City could stop the Jiangdong Army's attack.
Five hundred cavalrymen struggled with the Jiangdong Army for an hour, but the overall strength of the Jiangdong Army's cavalry was much stronger than that of the Jiaozhou Cavalry. In any case, Jiangdong's cavalry had experienced many wars and fought against the enemy again and again.
In the process, he showed extraordinary strength, and it was natural that he could defeat Jiaozhou's cavalry.
The defeat of his own cavalry made Chen Mei look ashen. After the cavalry failed, the consequences were serious, because the infantry of the Jiangdong Army had entered the city. Zhao Gang led the army to seize the west gate, but not only failed to take the west gate from the enemy's hands.
After seizing it, he chose to surrender instead, which made Chen Mei feel mentally and physically exhausted.
In this battle, the Jiaozhou Army must have failed, and it was a complete defeat. It was originally the biggest reliance. When fighting against the Jiangdong Army, it was discovered that there was a huge gap between the combat effectiveness of the Jiaozhou Army and the Jiangdong Army.
The level of eliteness is not on the same level at all.
"General, what should we do?" a general asked in a somewhat urgent tone.
Chen Xiang was silent for a moment and said: "Send an order for the army to retreat and burn all the food, grass and baggage."
Even if the Jiaozhou Army left Guangxin, it would not be able to leave food, grass and baggage for the Jiangdong Army. Chen Xiang's hatred for the Jiangdong Army could not be increased. Zhu Rong betrayed the Jiaozhou Army. Chen Xi could not wait to rush forward and devour him alive. In fact, the current
Although the situation is critical for Jiaozhou, the Jiaozhou army still has a chance to escape from this battle.
Judging from the reaction of the scholars, it is clear that they want to join the Jin Kingdom. This is indeed good news for the generals in the army. After entering the Jin Kingdom, they can not only avoid the occurrence of war, but also be able to stay in the Jin Kingdom.
A general in the army.
However, now, the situation has changed a lot. The failure of the Jiaozhou Army in Cangwu County will make the Jiaozhou Army fall into a more passive situation in the next battle.
The Jiaozhou Army retreated, but Zhou Tai led the army to continue the charge. However, Chen Xiang's order to burn grain, grass and baggage failed. After Jiangdong's army entered the city, Zhu Zhi led the army to seize the place where grain, grass and baggage were stored.
After successive wars, Wu's national strength was exhausted, so it would be good to get food and grass from the enemy's hands to alleviate the crisis in Jiangdong.
After Jiangdong's army entered the city, it took only three hours to pacify Guangxin. At this time, it was still dark.
After completely seizing the city, Zhou Tai immediately ordered, "The lieutenants of the army are not allowed to disturb the people after entering the city. Otherwise, they will be punished according to military law. No matter how high or low they are, they will not be tolerated."
Zhou Tai was the commander-in-chief of the Jiangdong Army, and the ordering soldiers did not dare to disobey and issued the order in a hurry.
