Chapter 48: Tempering the Army (3)
Lu Yao stood up in the army and was a master of fighting skills on the battlefield.* In terms of the performance of the charge formation, not many of the tens of thousands of soldiers in the Pingbei Shogunate could be compared with him. Although the status is getting higher and there are few opportunities to fight in person, his vision is only more accurate. Although the enemy cavalry rushed forward and divided into several teams to attack the defense of the Jin army, Lu Yao always paid attention to the only team where Wang Yan was.
The army built by Youzhou for several months of training will never lack courage and tenacity. The courage of being able to fight and rush and fight such an army is no less than Qiao Xi, the champion general of the Huns and Han Kingdom. If the battlefield is larger and the troops are invested more, such brave generals will have limited effect; but in the current situation, the formation of the Jin army is arranged across the river embankment, which is already thin, and the heavy rain hinders the mobilization of troops everywhere. A warrior with a strong force against ten thousand men may be enough to affect the entire battle situation!
As expected, according to Cao Yi, this enemy general was Wang Yan. As a famous general among the bandits in the Central Plains, he received the attention of Shi Le. Lu Yao would not ignore it and immediately sent out the most brave subordinate Ma Rui, who was around him to compete with him. Ma Rui was naturally extremely brave, otherwise he would not have been able to simply pull out from thousands of troops and horses to become Lu Yao's personal guard commander. Even if it was not as good as Wang Yan, it was almost the same. What's more, the soldiers he led were originally those Lu Yao was planning to use to fight head-on with the thieves' cavalry after crossing the river. Each of them was equipped with a special long sword and halberd. As long as it was properly arranged, it would be enough to surround Wang Yan on the spot.
Ma Rui took the order and left, and walked with dozens of armored soldiers, quickly sank into the killing field that was slapped at each other like a tide.
From the beginning, Wang Yan decided to take advantage of the fact that the Jin army had not yet established a stable foothold and rushed fiercely. What he led was indeed extremely fierce elites. Therefore, this battle had no usual process of testing and weighing each other, and directly entered the most fierce stage of fighting. The two armies rushed to each other, surrounding each other, surrounded, counter-encircled, impacted, and counter-attacked. The enemy and our soldiers fell to the ground, and continued to fill the positions and continued to kill. Wang Yan's cavalry rushed back and forth, and with the impact of the people and horses, they dispersed the gathering lines of defense, and wherever they went, they would have to breeze a bloody road. The Jin army cooperated with large shields and spears to split the groups of enemy cavalry, cut off, blocked their speed, and finally stabbed them one by one to the ground.
Wang Yan's long spear and armor were covered with blood. More thick red blood was washed by the rain, splashing on the ground like a river, pouring into the black soil and disappeared. This was his fourth time clashing with the Jin army array. Each time it caused major casualties to the Jin army. Relying on the fast cavalry, he did not suffer even minor injuries. The problem was that he had never made a breakthrough, nor did he suppress the fierce morale of the Jin army.
When he retreated again to accumulate horsepower, a Jin army officer took the opportunity and pulled the bow and shot him an arrow. Although the rain would greatly weaken the bow power, the officer's shooting skills were extraordinary, and the arrows were still extremely fierce. With a "boom" sound, he broke the armor in his chest and pierced a layer of cowhide under the iron armor, and then couldn't get stuck. Wang Yan felt pain in his chest, broke the arrow shaft, rode his horse and rushed towards the archer's archery officer, wielding a long spear to beat him. The officer had already avoided the back under the deployment wing protection, so where could he fight? Wang Yan smashed several large shields and killed several people in a row. Seeing that the Jin army infantry on both sides had the intention of encircling, he had to retreat again.
The heavy rain was still falling, the ground became wetter, and some horses were already slipping while galloping, but the Jin people's array was like a string that was repeatedly pulled, and it did not break. So, Wang Yan became more and more anxious. He had to find an opportunity to kill these dogs from the court in one go! He murmured and suddenly noticed the group of officers behind the Jin army array who were always calm and watching the battle.
"Come here! Come here!" Wang Yan shouted loudly, gathered more than 20 armored cavalry around him again, and also transferred some of the light cavalry that was pressing behind him. He waved his long spear and pointed to the direction of the Jin army officer: "Don't be busy. No matter how many unknown pawns kill, it's useless! Did you see that there? There must be the place where the Jin generals are. We are like this... like this!"
Dozens of blood-filled bandits responded in unison, and the group rushed forward again.
Wang Yan attacked several times in a row, and most of the grassroots officers of the Jin army also noticed this extremely fierce enemy. Seeing that he was trapped in the formation again, the Jin army in the corresponding direction shouted and immediately closed the formation. Unfortunately, it was difficult to transfer infantry, so a gap was left. Wang Yan immediately grasped this gap. He led the team to pretend to be rushing on the periphery. After several times, he suddenly accelerated. Dozens of people roared in unison, waved their long spears and knocked away all the swords and guns that were stabbed from far and near, and rushed in at the gap!
Less than a hundred steps behind the gap, it is where Lu Yao and others are!
It has to be admitted that Wang Yan is indeed a cavalry general with great tactical standards. Such a person cannot make contributions to the outside world of the army, but he will actually join the bandits, which proves that the Jin Dynasty really has the apocalyptic atmosphere. In this attack, no matter the opportunity chosen, the route of the cavalry team's Mercedes-Benz was so wonderful that it was severely broken, shattering the only weak point in the Jin army's array. At this time, the fifty soldiers led by Ma Rui were still a little far away from the battlefield and could not arrive at the interception!
Lu Yao was stunned for a moment, and everyone who watched the battle with Lu Yao changed their colors.
Wang Yan roared like thunder and came first.
After all, the Jin army was insufficient, and the formations were arranged had to be heavy in front and light in the back. The main forces were on the front line. After Wang Yan rushed through this line, the obstacles he faced were very sparse. Within a hundred steps, there was only a team of spearmen standing by. The spearmen saw the iron cavalry coming and formed a formation in a hurry. Wang Yan was unwilling to waste time on these miscellaneous soldiers. He easily plucked the reins, so he planned to ride a horse around one side and continue to rush towards the main formation of the Jin army.
However, I never expected that a very tall man rushed out of the queue and intercepted him in the hand of the Jin army's spears that were densely collected.
This man seemed to be very popular. Once he left the queue, many people behind him suddenly exclaimed, shouting incessantly, trying to call him back. But he never looked back and kept moving forward. With his huge body, his legs were two steps away from ordinary people in one step. He rushed to Wang Yan in the blink of an eye.
Wang Yan had been rampant in the Central Plains for several years. He had many famous generals of the Jin army, and the warriors killed many. In this battle, he killed more than twenty Jin soldiers. How could such a killing god take ordinary soldiers from unknown places seriously? Even if he didn't plan to delay, it would not waste much time to take a life alone. He sneered and stabbed the giant man directly, intending to stab the intestines and rot directly.
Seeing the long spear stabbed, the giant man slightly turned sideways, his legs apart, and he dodged a blow without any hesitation. The heavy spear tip swept through his waist and abdomen with strong wind, almost lifting up his military uniform. This movement was really agile, but Wang Yan didn't care. Fortunately, he had the spare time to think: I sweep the spear first, then rush forward. If I don't die, I will use the opportunity of the interweaving of people and horses to draw my sword and slash...
Unexpectedly, when he was about to wave his arm and hold a spear, the long spear seemed like a thousand-year-old tree that had grown in the rock of Mount Tai, and it didn't move at all! At this time, Wang Yan was urging the horse to sprint. The horse's momentum plus the weight of the people and horses added hundreds of kilograms, and this extremely fierce force suddenly returned to Wang Yan himself. Wang Yan shouted, his hands and tiger mouths broke, and the long spear was out of his hand.
When he raised his eyes in panic, he saw the giant man sneering and looking at him. The weighted long spear that he used to use in his hand was hit hard. Wang Yan immediately cheered up, pulled out the long sword from his waist, and used his hands to block it. He already knew that the giant man's divine power was not as good as the world's world, and the next long spear was definitely difficult to resist, but the horse under his crotch had already run at a speed, and the distance was about 100 feet apart. As long as he blocked the giant man's spear and hit him, dozens of iron cavalry behind him rushed forward, and even stomped on the giant man to death!
Halfway through the thought, the long spear that the giant man held in his hand had fallen onto his knife. The long sword made by the sharp flesh broke like a rotten wood; then his arms were painful, and the bones of both arms also broke. The long spear continued to go down, as if it hit his forehead without any obstacles. There was only a muffled sound, and the iron sheets and cooked cowhide were shattered. Wang Yan felt a blood light burst out in front of him, and then it was pitch black, and he knew nothing.
