Chapter 80 Wang Bazhen

When the first wave of the catapult was over, Liu Yun's siege battle officially began.

If the enemy in the city knew that this was just a wave of warm-up, their hearts should be quite cold.

The swords and guns hit the iron armor, making a crisp and neat clanging sound, exuding a murderous aura.

Black clouds were swaying to the ground. The dark night and the black clouds that were moving neatly on the earth, if it weren't for the firelight, they seemed to have become a group of black armored heavenly soldiers walking out of the night.

Liu Yun's former army and Zhao Deng personally led 5,000 infantry into a tight square formation, slowly approaching the city wall.

The spearmen held a heavy shield outside, and the more flexible swords and shield soldiers held a ring-headed sword, and the round shield was hidden in it. The entire formation looked like a moving fortress.

As soon as the military formation was around the outer wall of Chang'an City, a light cavalry rushed over quickly in the diagonal stab. The general immediately carried a spear in his hand and roared with a red face.

"Change the array!"

Zhao Deng roared angrily, and the scout quickly danced the torch and ordered the entire army with fire as a sign.

Immediately, the square formation was divided into two, like a big mouth, making way for the cavalry front army.

After more than half of the light cavalry rushed, they quickly closed and bit the cavalry rear army into the formation.

The spearmen were ahead and took the horses and cavalry.

The sword and shield soldiers were the queen, and the cavalry were cut down and the horse's hooves were seated.

About a thousand cavalrymen fell into such a military formation, as if they were trapped in a quagmire. Not to mention effective against the enemy, the panic of the war horses pushed and shoved each other, and in an instant, many people were hurt.

The enemy cavalry front army that rushed out of the formation went around for half a circle and rushed back again.

The re-used technique will inevitably not work again. Zhao Deng quickly ordered the spearmen to form a shield wall to resist and first eliminate the cavalry rear army that rushed into the formation.

At this time, the slightly chaotic formation will naturally reduce the lethality of the enemy. Just hold on for a while and wait for the formation to reorganize, it will be an opportunity to counterattack.

Infantry is already very weak against cavalry. If you block one with ten, you may barely be able to do it. The military formation is the foundation of infantry charge.

The cavalry front army failed to enter the formation for a long time, so they led the generals to quickly turn the horse's head, widen the distance, and prepare for the next rush to attack.

But at this time, Zhao Deng's army had been reorganized, and neat footsteps sounded again.

Everything in front of him made Zhao Deng admire Liu Yun from the bottom of his heart. His lord is really awesome.

It is indeed effective to form an army formation by bringing the old and new ones.

These five thousand infantry soldiers were composed of three thousand old Zhao Deng's subordinates and two thousand surrendered troops in Hanzhong.

Before, Zhao Deng was worried that these two thousand infantry would completely disrupt his formation and make the war lose.

After all, his old subordinates had already trained all this countless times, and even if they made mistakes, they could be quickly remedied.

But these two thousand surrendered troops were almost completely unfamiliar with all this.

But unexpectedly, the chaos that Zhao Deng was worried about did not happen. The riot only lasted for a moment and then became more and more impressive.

"kill!"

Zhao Deng was immediately confident and shouted, ordering the soldiers to charge.

The infantry forming a phalanx launched a charge against the cavalry!

Although the pace was slow, the momentum was imposing, especially the uniform footsteps and shouts, the enemy's little heart trembled.

He was charged twice by the cavalry but he still didn't collapse?

This should be the elite among the elites of the Hanyang Army!

If they knew that there were two thousand surrendered troops here, and the remaining three thousand would have been treated as Pingxiang City Defense Forces in the eyes of the boss Liu Yun of Hanyang. I don’t know what they would think, so they should be very disappointed.

"Retreat! Retreat!"

The captain immediately took a look and resolutely decided to withdraw his troops.

He did not break through the enemy army formation at his peak. He knew in his heart that with his current state, it would be difficult to have another chance to make achievements.

The remaining cavalrymen turned around and ran away. Zhao Deng ignored it. His goal was to occupy the outer capital of Chang'an.

Infantry can charge against cavalry, but chasing cavalry is really a fantasy.

Although Zhao Deng ignored it, someone paid attention.

The retreating cavalry was about to sink into the city, and a cavalry suddenly came out of the slanting sect.

The cavalry immediately all had black armored swords, like a tiger pounced on food, and stabbed into his queue.

The captain was shocked and did not dare to resist at all. He immediately fled around the city.

The cavalry that suddenly rushed out was Yan Yan led the right-wing scimitar light cavalry. When he moved here, he happened to run into the defeated cavalry and rushed forward and killed him.

The light cavalry, which had already been injured, had experienced Yan Yan's rushing, and there were fewer than a hundred cavalrymen who fled.

...

In the yamen of the Left General's Office, Huangfu Song ordered the defeated cavalry captain Youping.

Three thousand light cavalry rushed into an infantry and military formation, and fled with less than a hundred cavalry!

The outer capital was also lost!

This was almost what happened in the blink of an eye, and Huangfu Song's heart was almost blown up.

In his life, he had never encountered such a bleak time. These bastards just wanted to force him to the pillar of shame.

The soldiers who were originally scheduled to attack the camp tonight have now lost the city and lost the troops before they moved, and they were defeated so much.

"Everyone is mute? Talk!"

Huangfu Song raised his sinister gaze and looked at the crowded people in the hall.

There were more than a dozen military generals standing in the hall, but at this time they all seemed to have become civil servants, one by one, and they were all depressed and silent.

All the calculations that should have been shown on the battlefield have become a slander in my stomach.

Zhang Bing slowly raised his head, and the thief carefully swept the people in the hall, stepped out of the line, cleared his voice and said loudly: "Lord, Liu Yun is coming with great force and unstoppable momentum. Now the outer land has been lost, and Chang'an City has lost its barrier. It is better to... lead the army to Luoyang in the east and ask Your decree to recruit this thief."

Huangfu Song snorted coldly, his murderous aura flashed in his eyes, and he shouted: "He was originally the prefect of Hanyang County, how could he say he would bring peace?"

"Lord, there are still some differences after all. Liu Yun is a little embarrassed by the position of prefect." Zhang Bing said leisurely.

Huangfu Song did not reply, but looked at the others.

Seeing Zhongfu Li stood up and said, "Zhongfu, Zhang Sima Yan is reasonable, turns enemies into friends, enter Luoyang together, and joins Dong Zhuo's remnants, defeats Heishan, and the White Bo bandits, and then the world will be cleared and the people will be at peace."

"My brother, there is no conclusion on how this thief Liu Yun is. He must be wary of the thief. If he abandons Chang'an and leaves, he will advance eastward, then Luoyang will be in danger." Huangfu Hong shook his head and retorted.

"Although abandoning the car and protecting the general is not a clear plan, but looking around, this strategy is particularly the best. Now in the capital, Wang Yun is in charge of the government and Lu Bu leads his troops. These two people are in high positions, but they have no knowledge of others. At that time, the government and the country will be in chaos, and the court will be in danger." Huangfu Li argued with reason.
