Chapter two hundred and twenty second big loss
After the formation was reorganized, the Turkic army was indeed Wang Shichong. He pushed the armored cavalry to the front, arranged in an orderly manner, and then charged densely. The light cavalry followed closely and surrounded the two wings, like a rushing tide. Tens of thousands of horse hooves hit the ground at the same time, shaking the earth slightly trembling. Before the people arrived, the feather arrows, as dense as hail raindrops, had already fallen on the head of the Sui Army in Jiangdu.
Asina Eliver had no choice. Shibi Khan assigned him the task was to stop the Sui army from establishing a camp and protect the main Turkic forces' activity space. Now that the Sui army is in a camp and fighting, how can the Sui army stop the Sui army from establishing a camp if it does not defeat the Sui army outside the camp, and how can it suppress the oppressed momentum of the Sui army and protect the few cavalry activity space left? So even if we find that the Sui army in the south has more strength than expected and imagined, we also know that Wang Shichong's turtle formation is not easy to chew, Asina Eliver can only try his best to take down this turtle formation. Otherwise, it will not only hurt morale, but also will not be able to explain to Shibi Khan and Asina's family when they go back.
Wang Shichong had no choice. The black-hearted son-in-law refused to send reinforcements, and he insisted on continuing to withstand. If Wang Shichong did not obey, he would disobey. He deliberately retreated and preserved his strength, and he did not have the courage to do so. He would definitely not give up. Even if he was killed, he would be selfless and loyal to the country. Therefore, Wang Shichong had no choice. He could only curse the ancestors of the black-hearted son-in-law for the eighteen generations, praying for the deceased Sui general Da Xi Changru, who had already seen his body, commanding the army to fight the enemy with all his might, and shouting endlessly, "Establish the position, and shoot arrows and arrows steadily, you must not stop."
The heavy infantry of the Sui army in Jiangdu at the front all raised their spears, just like a row of sharp thorns growing on the edge of the turtle formation. The heavy infantry with some broken and deformed iron armor tried hard to stand firm and beside each other. The long shield hands in front pressed the long shield tightly with their bodies, and the light infantry behind also worked hard to support their backs with their bodies, trying to help them meet the huge impact that was about to come. The archers behind desperately pulled the bow and shot arrows, suppressing the charge momentum of the Turkic cavalry, working together to welcome the crazy impact from the grassland robbers, and using their flesh and blood to resist the sharp arrow scimitar of the nomadic robbers.
The Turkic cavalry in armor rushed in with rolling yellow sand, and rushed directly to the Sui army's turtle formation without any hesitation. The war horses soared into the air and the horse's hooves were stomped down. The Sui army's long shield was raised, the spear stabbed, the sound of horse's hooves falling, the sound of long shields breaking, the sound of gold and iron collision, the screams of the soldiers of the two armies being injured and dying, and the neighing of the war horses, all gathered into a stream, which was as chaotic as the screams of the souls of the Nine Nether Hell. Blood suddenly flew at the junction of the two armies. The Sui army's round turtle formation was also knocked out of a depression, and the enemy was forced to retreat nearly two feet.
At that moment, Wang Shichong, who was in the formation and Chen Yingliang, who were watching the battle from a distance, his heart suddenly reached his throat, because once the Turkic cavalry broke through the depression, they directly rushed into the interior of the Sui army's turtle formation. Wang Shichong's painstaking arrangement of the turtle formation was equivalent to directly breaking it.
Fortunately, the brave and warlike Sui army in Jiangdu was possessed at this moment. Although they were forced to retreat, even though countless soldiers were hit by the Turkic heavy cavalry and vomited blood and even flew up directly, many Sui soldiers were directly trampled on by the Turkic war horses and stepped into meat sauce. However, after being pressed back more than one meter away, the Sui soldiers still resisted the Turkic heavy cavalry with their flesh and blood to continue advancing, without giving the Turkic cavalry a chance to rush into the formation, and pulled the Turkic cavalry into a close-knit battle.
Seeing this scene, even the Taiyuan Sui army, which had despised the Sui army in Jiangdu, could not help but burst out with earth-shaking cheers, and morale was greatly boosted, because the Sui army soldiers knew very well that they were not afraid of close-killing battles with Turkic cavalry face to face, and fought desperately with swords and guns, fearing that the Turkic army's cavalry rain and the charge of archery with people and horses. As long as they withstand the charge of Turkic soldiers wearing armor, the Turkic army basically had no hope of breaking the Sui army's turtle formation. At the same time, Li Yuan couldn't help but frowned again, and was even more afraid of the formation combat capabilities of the Sui army in Jiangdu.
The development of the war was as expected. After failing to successfully break into the Sui Army's turtle formation and was pulled into a frontal hand-to-hand combat by the Sui Army infantry, the Turkic cavalry had no hope of breaking the formation. They could only honestly slash and stab with the Sui Army infantry with swords and guns, fighting with their lives. The Sui Army soldiers, who were highly motivated, stabbed the enemy and chopped the horse's legs, and beat them vividly. Not only did they stabilize the formation again, but they also caused considerable casualties and injuries to the Turkic heavy cavalry, and also gave Wang Shichong a big face.
At this point, the dream of the Turkic army smashing Wang Shichong's turtle formation in one fell swoop has actually completely failed. Asina Eliver's face turned blue and had to reconsider the countermeasures. Chen Yingliang nodded repeatedly on the Sui Army's flag formation. After a moment of calculation, Chen Yingliang turned his eyes to Yun Dingxing's position and ordered: "Zhu Can obey the order."
It was the first time since he met Chen Yingliang that Zhu Can heard Chen Yingliang call out his name. In amazement, Zhu Can was a little distracted. It was not until Miao Haichao pushed him from behind that Zhu Can came back to his senses, quickly stepped out of the line and clasped his fists, and replied loudly: "The last one is here."
"Let you lead the Zuotun Guards to go out to the camp, order the Yanyue formation, and pay attention to giving up the rear army's outbound space." Chen Yingliang ordered without expression: "The enemy comes to kill him and face the enemy head-on. If the enemy does not come, there is no order, no action is allowed. Those who violate the order are killed."
"Whoever violates the order?" Zhu Can was stunned again, then clasped his fists and sang his promise, then quickly went down to lead the troops out of the camp, quickly arranged the Yanyue Formation requested by Chen Yingliang in front of the camp gate, and was also the Yanyue Formation with extremely high requirements for the general's military power.
Chen Yingliang overestimated the ability of the troops under General Yun's army. Seeing that Zhu Can led his army out of the camp, Ashina Eliver, who had suffered enough trouble in the formation of the Zuotun Guard, had already ordered an attack. The two thousand Turks arranged in the northwest of the Sui Army in Jiangdu took the lead and rushed straight towards Zhu Can's team. Zhu Can hurriedly rushed to meet the enemy. The two crescent moons, which had not yet been fully opened, quickly surrounded the left and right. They fought with the Turkic army before they were still firm. Although they were not at a loss, they had no chance to fight against the Turkic charge as powerful as Wang Shichong.
Zhu Can's attack was not good, and General Yun was of course unable to hold back his face. He kept complaining that Zhu Can's movements were not fast enough and he was too slow to set up the formation. He also explained to his lackeys inside and outside, saying that the Turkic army was coming too fast, and Zhu Can really didn't have much time to stabilize his position. Chen Yingliang remained silent and just waited quietly for the next move of the Turkic army.
The Turkic army did move. They found that the Sui army had too strong combat capabilities and refused to fight the Sui army again. Asina Eliver finally got the opportunity, of course he would not be polite. After another order, five thousand Turkic cavalry immediately came out and rushed to Zhu Can's team that had not been established without hesitation. Zhu Can was in a hurry and had to gather the team, arrange a square formation in the melee, and hastily resisted the Turkic attack. The battle was very hard and he also showed a sign of defeat.
Chen Yingliang had to make another adjustment, but Chen Yingliang did not send reinforcements to Zhu Can, but arranged a messenger to go out of the camp to give orders to Li Yuan, who has not been attacked so far, and shouted: "Go and send an order to Ambassador Li, order him to advance in the drum formation and directly attack the Turkic flag formation."
After receiving Chen Yingliang's order, Li Yuan frowned for the third time today, but he did not dare to disobey the military order in public, so he had to bite the bullet and order the drums to attack and lead the army north to attack the Turkic flag formation. As a result, Ashina Eliver was somewhat embarrassed. Not fighting was like waiting to die. If he fought, it would easily hurt potential allies, but it would definitely not work. In a desperate situation, Ashina Eliver had to send another 10,000 troops to face the Taiyuan Sui army head-on, and launched a firearm with the Taiyuan Sui army, which was also equipped with a large number of bows and arrows. As a result, the reserve team around Ashina Eliver was left unknowingly with only about 18,000.
At the same time, Chen Yingliang made another adjustment and ordered Liu Jingye, the general of Zuo Tun Guard, to lead an army of 5,000 from Zuoying, to detour north and to take the Turkic formation. He also secretly ordered Liu Jingye to form a square formation immediately to protect himself once he was intercepted by the Turkic. He did not require Liu Jingye to kill many enemies, but only required Liu Jingye to entangle more than one enemy.
Liu Jingye received the order to go out of the camp and led his army to walk northward. Before he had time to cross the front of the camp, he was entangled by the same number of Turkic light cavalry. Liu Jingye secretly ordered him to protect himself and restrained the five thousand Turks in the northwest of the Sui army camp. At the same time, Chen Yingliang immediately arranged for Miao Haichao to lead 5,000 troops out of the front to reinforce Zhu Can, who could no longer resist, and lured the Turks to continue to increase their troops in the front.
With a few chess pieces falling, Chen Yingliang's sinister intention and despicable face were already obvious. That is, to take advantage of the local military strength of the Sui army in this area, lengthen the front line as much as possible, induce the Turks to divide the troops as much as possible, and induce the Turks to over-disperse the troops to form local balances, and then suddenly invest the elites to break these balances, fight less in the local area, defeat the weak with strong, and finally win the entire battlefield. I guessed Chen Yingliang's plan, and after nodding secretly, Li Jing came to Chen Yingliang's ear again and whispered: "Master, move quickly. It is only twenty miles away from the Turkic camp here, so I must prevent the Turkic reinforcements from coming."
Chen Yingliang nodded without saying anything. At the same time, Asina Eliver also made a command mistake, that is, he was too eager to win and ignored the issue of division of troops. In order to quickly establish the victory, Asina Eliver sent five thousand Turks to the south again to attack Zhu Can's team, which had already shown signs of defeat. Only eight thousand reserves were left by his side, and the strength of the central flag formation was weak to a very dangerous state.
The traitor succeeded, and Chen Yingliang didn't even blink his eyelids, and immediately shouted: "Guo Feng, Cheng Yaojin, Qin Qiong obeyed the order."
"The Last General" Guo Feng, who had been impatient for a long time, Cheng Yaojin and Qin Qiong, immediately left the list and clasped their fists neatly to sing.
"Each leader is leading the headquarters and go out from the right camp." Chen Yingliang said with a smile: "Where is the target? Answer me."
"Turkish Banner Formation"
The three most loyal lackeys under Chen Sangliang's command were all thought of, and answered in unison in unison, with a firm attitude and confident expression that made the other Sui generals present very envious, and they all cursed in their hearts, "Why are there no lackeys under my command who are so afraid of death and dare to fight tough battles?"
Chen Yingliang nodded with a smile, and then ordered Sangouzi, the captain of the personal soldiers next to him: "Sangouzi, take thirty A-level soldiers to prevent them. If there are four of them, each person will not be used until the last moment. Try not to use them if you can, do you understand?"
Sangouzi clasped his fists and sang nodded without hesitation. Chen Yingliang nodded again. When he waved his hand, the three powerful generals and Sangouzi had already rushed down to lead the troops to fight. It was at this time that Yinshishi, Yun Dingxing, Li Jing and others were curious about what the A-level soldier was. Chen Yingliang smiled but did not answer, and everyone was unsolved. Only Liu Changgong laughed and said, "I know, but don't expect me to say that it is the killer move of Brother Chen to the bottom of the box. I have to keep it secret for him."
After the report and two thousand elite Qiao Peng cavalry were ready, the war drums suddenly started to take place in the Sui army camp. Amid the sound of thunder, the right gate of the Sui army camp suddenly opened, and the number of Sui army cavalry, with less than three thousand, suddenly rushed out of the camp, and changed the formation to serve the vanguard of the country as the vanguard, and went north without hesitation. The soldiers of Qiao Peng roared like thunder. The firearm soldiers led by Sangouzi hidden gunpowder weapons that appeared six hundred years in advance. They held the fire seeds and shouted excitedly. The soldiers who rushed to the front had almost no sound. They were just grinning on their faces and grinning with blood-devouring grin, holding the banner of loyalty to the country and slamming towards the Turkic flag formation without saying a word.
The sudden attack of the elite cavalry of the Sui army caught the Turkic army off guard. The Turkic army, which was fighting with Wang Shichong, Li Yuan, Zhu Can and Liu Jingye, was in a hurry. I didn't know whether to divide the troops to intercept or protect themselves. Asina Eliver, who was commanding in the Turkic flag formation, also stood up and observed the target of the Sui cavalry that suddenly broke out. Asina Eliver quickly opened his mouth and saw that the Sui cavalry did not support Wang Shichong, who was nearest, nor did he reinforce Zhu Can, who was beating against the Turkic army. Instead, he passed directly through the narrow gap between Wang Shichong and Zhu Can, and turned north.
"Come and help Duke Tang?"
Asina Eliver once flashed this idea, believing that this Sui cavalry was to reinforce Li Yuan's team, which was the northernmost battlefield. Until he saw everyone wearing white robes crossing the battle area of the Sui army in Taiyuan and directly attacking him, Asina Eliver woke up as if he was dreaming and exclaimed: "My flag formation? These Central Plains barbarians actually came to attack my flag formation?"
After understanding the purpose of the Sui cavalry, Ashina Eliver was first shocked, then furious and shouted: "Everyone got on the horse and followed me to charge, and let these Central Plains barbarians who didn't know the height of the sky and the earth, so that these Central Plains barbarians could see what is the true invincible iron cavalry."
Amid the disgusting and unpleasant screams, the last eight thousand Turkic cavalry boarded up and quickly arranged in a row. Then Asina Eliver ordered his personal soldiers to raise his white-haired commander's flag and personally led his army to launch a counter-charge. He rushed towards the Sui cavalry rushing towards the front, and rushed to pull bows and shoot arrows in the charge, displaying his unique skills of riding and shooting, and shooting colorful and powerful feather arrows onto the head of the service army that was leading the formation.
Asina Eliver should have asked the Turks of the Han County about the situation of the service army. Unfortunately, even if he inquired, it was useless. With his outstanding performance over the past two years, the service army was so well-equipped that even the Great Sui Imperial Guards were jealous of the Sui Dynasty. Even the most ordinary soldiers were armed to their teeth, and all the people and horses were covered with iron armor. It was the best iron armor carefully created by the Royal Workshop. The Turkic feather arrows were strong, and when they shot on these iron armor, they would burst out several strings of Mars. Unless they happened to be shot to a position without armor protection, they would basically have no effect. As a result, the Turkic cavalry released several waves of arrow rains in succession during the charge, and basically shot into the group of service soldiers, but they had almost no effect. The soldiers who all rode Dayuan horses were still smiling and were silently silenced toward the front of the Turkic army.
"It's not good that it's the heavy armored soldiers." Asina Eliver was shocked first, then shocked, and exclaimed: "How is it possible? Can heavy armored soldiers run so fast? What horse are they riding?"
In the screaming, Asina Eliver subconsciously slowed down a little. However, the personal soldiers beside him continued to charge without fear. Several Turkic Fuli, whose hands were covered with blood from the Han people, shouted loudly, "Dog Man, come to Ella if you want to die."
"It's so noisy."
Pei Xingyan, who was rushing in front with Guo Feng, finally muttered, and a Turkic Fuli rushed towards him, screaming and thrusting his gun to stab Pei Xingyan. Pei Xingyan was too lazy to swing his sword. He suddenly poked his left hand and grabbed the gun directly. The Turkic Fuli on the opposite side was shocked and quickly screamed and waved his gun with both hands to throw Pei Xingyan off the war horse. Unexpectedly, Pei Xingyan, a monster who could count the fingers at the end of the Sui Dynasty and the beginning of the Tang Dynasty, raised his left hand and lifted him into the sky with his gun, and then smashed it down. The unlucky Turkic Fuli suddenly screamed and flew backwards, smashing over two even more unlucky companions. Finally, Pei Xingyan muttered again, "It's so noisy."
With a bang, Chen Ci next to Pei Xingyan hit the head of a Turkic soldier with a stick, smashing his helmet directly and deformed, and tragically died on the spot with blood spraying from his mouth and nose. Then Chen Ci whispered Amitabha Buddha and swept it out with another stick, smashing another Turkic soldier over and fell off the horse.
With a shout, the familiar sound of breaking through the air was heard. Guo Feng on the other side once again swung the nine-ring machete that Huangfu Wuyi gave him personally, and cut the enemy with a rock. The Turkic soldiers on the opposite side were so scared that they leaned back and dodged. Guo Feng's machete directly slashed the head of the war horse under his crotch, and split the horse head into two pieces on the spot. Then an iron spear suddenly popped out behind Guo Feng, piercing the Turkic soldiers' lower abdomen. Then Guo Feng and the soldiers who served the gun did not speak, and continued to swing their swords and spears and fight with other Turkic soldiers.
Cut melons and vegetables, and the soldiers armed to their teeth didn't even shout slogans. They just waved their swords and guns, swung their rods and hammers, and killed machines and harvested the lives of the enemy's opponents silently. Even if they were injured by the arrow, they didn't say anything. They just greeted the weapons in their hands as much as possible. They looked as calm as eating and drinking water, and as cold as thousands of years of ice. The Turkic soldiers opposite them were panicked and screamed, "Who are these Central Plains barbarians? Why are they so powerful? Why are they so powerful?"
"Kill and kill" shouts sounded on the wings of the team. The Qiao Peng cavalry led by Cheng Yaojin and Qin Qiong rushed up from the left and right of the National Army. Although these Qiao Peng cavalry were far inferior to those of the soldiers in terms of equipment, they had never seen less blood on the battlefield than those of the soldiers. They swung their swords and spears and had no power to be inferior to those of the soldiers. Although the Turkic Fuli beside Ashina Eliver was elite, they only had a draw with the most elites of the Qiao Peng Sui army.
Qiao Peng's cavalry covered both wings, and the soldiers were naturally more unscrupulous in the rushing. More than 800 cavalry did not give any discount, but they just took a straight line to attack Ashina Eliver's flag. Although the Turkic cavalry came forward to stop them, they could not resist the cold killing of these murder machines. They were chopped down one after another, and countless people fell off the horse, and more and more frightened people. In the end, even Ashina Eliver was panicked and screamed in his heart, "Oh, I underestimated the enemy too much. I didn't expect that the group of dead soldiers in the Central Plains barbarians were so powerful that they could not even stop my personal soldiers."
The Turkic cavalry was still large in number. Even if it was not good, it quickly extended to the two wings and gradually surrounded the Sui cavalry. Under normal circumstances, the Turkic army would have some effect on doing this, at least psychologically overwhelming the Sui cavalry. Unfortunately, the Turkic army encountered a group of non-humans this time. A group of abnormal humans who had never fought with less than five times the enemy since they formed the army, and often fought with dozens of times the enemy head-on. Therefore, the Turkic did this not only without the effect of intimidation and restraint, but also revealed huge flaws, directly exposing their chief general Ashina Eliver to the group of abnormal humans in white robes.
"Ela Ella" The Turkic soldiers around Asina Eliver were still rushing up madly, trying to stop the army of the service army that still directly went to their commander. However, while nervous, they did not notice that there were only a hundred personal soldiers left by Asina Eliver. At the same time, they could not stop the progress of the few powerful generals. They were killed so that they fell over the ground. It was also at this time that Chen Ci, the most calm-minded among the four generals of the service army, suddenly discovered the opportunity and immediately shouted at Sangouzi hiding behind: "Sangouzi, take action to cover us to capture the Turkic general alive."
After hesitating for a moment, Sangouzi also yelled and issued a throwing order. Thirty firearm soldiers, who were personally soldiers of Chen Yingliang, immediately took out a gunpowder bottle, ignited the lead with the fire he carried casually, and then threw it hard towards the Turkic team ahead. At the same time, several generals of the National Army who relied on this secret weapon two years ago also yelled and ordered to "charge"
"Boom boom boom boom boom boom boom"
The gunpowder weapon that appeared six hundred years in advance exploded in the first time in the Turkic army. Although the power of the explosion was very pitiful, and although the greatest effect was only to intimidate the enemy, the sudden effect of six hundred years in advance was still extraordinary. The Turkic Fuli in front of Asina Eliver was even the elite, he was also blown up and was shocked to break his eardrums, bleeding from his ears, and he was dizzy. The team was in chaos. The soldiers who knew these effects did not even blink their eyes. They took the opportunity to rush straight towards Asina Eliver wearing a golden helmet. Finally, a neat roar sounded in the team, "Catch the living."
The violent explosion not only scared Ashina Eliver and the army around him, but also the Sui army and Turkic soldiers in other places on the battlefield. When they scrambled to turn their heads and looked at them, they saw Ashina Eliver's white-haired flag falling and disappearing. The Turkic soldiers were speechless, and the Sui army soldiers were dumbfounded, and then cheered, and their morale suddenly burst out.
Most of the Sui generals around Chen Yingliang, including the future Tang Dynasty god Li Jing, were frightened and screamed: "What happened? What sound? Thundering?"
"Hahahaha" General Liu Changgong laughed wildly with great pride, "Brother Chen, congratulations, this battle is sure to win again, and I'm scared by you again. It depends on the effect this time. Last time you used this trick to catch Yang Xuangan, this time it depends on whether you can take the head of the Turkic chief general."
"If you can't get the head of the Turkic chief general, I will peel them when you come back." Chen Yingliang cursed depressedly: "We are not at all inferior, and there is no need to use this move at all, exposing my biggest killer move. If you can't get the head of the Turkic chief general, I want them to look good when you come back."
Chapter completed!
