Chapter 63 The decisive battle against Yang Xuangan (1)

The wind was light and clouds were light. Under the rising sun, the Sui army slowly headed east successfully arrived at the reserved battlefield that had been carefully surveyed in advance. Through scout reconnaissance, it was confirmed that the rebels had already left the camp to the west. At Chen Yingliang's order, the Sui army immediately stopped, and quickly arranged a large array of radius with a small earth mountain not too high as the flag formation, and quickly began to build simple fortifications.

The sunshine was still very unfavorable to the Sui army. The rising Chaoyang in the east happened to hit the faces of the Sui army soldiers. This was a problem that could not be solved, and Chen Yingliang could only ignore it. The terrain was also unfavorable to the Sui army. The open area outside Hongnong City gave the rebels a large number of cavalry the best opportunity to gallop and detour. The Sui army, which had long been thrown away by Wei Xuan, was in an extremely unfavorable situation. In view of this, Chen Yingliang, who had already personally inspected the nearby terrain, could only follow his distant uncle Pei Hongce and quickly build a thin horse-proof fence to offset part of the charge power of the rebel cavalry.

In addition, Chen Yingliang, who was a little greedy and afraid of death, also made an arrangement that was focused on the inside and the outside, and arranged the Sui army to the periphery. The most capable and reliable army of serving the country was placed in the middle of the square formation by Chen Yingliang, and was in the safest position, and he also protected Chen Yingliang's flag formation.

After a while, the rebels, which had sent four times the number of troops, had already arrived near the battlefield. When I saw the last main force of the Sui army in Hongnong City, I saw Chen Yingliang's loyalty to the national flag and Wei Xuan's Wei-character flag appearing in the Sui army at the same time\uff0

c Yang Xuangan immediately burst into laughter, knowing that as long as he wins this battle, there will be no stumbling block on his way to Guanzhong.

The veteran General Li Zixiong was also laughing loudly, pointing at the Sui army team that was hurrying to arrange the square and circular formation, laughing wildly, "The square and circular formation? It turned out to be the square and circular formation! Will the little thief Chen Yingliang and the old man Wei Xuan fight in war? Attack our army with weak forces, without thinking about a surprise attack, they even arranged the turtle formation like the square and circular formation. Haven't they read a military book and don't know what the square and circular formation is like?"

Of course, there is a reason why General Li laughed so wildly. The large formation of square and radial formation composed of multiple square formations is indeed the strongest defensive formation among Sun Bin's ten formations, but it sacrifices a lot of maneuver and offensive power. When it is dangerous or when reinforcements are about to arrive, it can indeed have the effect of weak resistance and winning time. However, in the open terrain, such a formation is arranged to fight against the dominant enemy, and in the end, there is only one end, and the dominant enemy is exhausted! - By the way, Zhao Kuo, who talks about war on paper, used this formation to fight Bai Qi, but was killed by Bai Qi taking the opportunity to cut off the food channel.

In contrast to Li Zixiong, after seeing the Sui army fighting against the self-armed army in square formations, Li Mi's expression changed and rushed to Yang Xuangan and said, "Duke Chu, please order the attack as soon as possible, and do not allow the officers and soldiers to form a formation smoothly. Otherwise, we will be very difficult to fight in this battle. We should launch an attack immediately and force the official army to fight us immediately."

"Master, launch an attack immediately, are you stupid?" Li Zixiong scolded: "At this time, launch an attack, even if the winning officers and soldiers can immediately retreat to Hongnong City. How can we severely damage and annihilate this officer and soldier?"

After scolding this sentence, before Li Mi refuting, Li Zixiong had turned to Yang Xuangan and bowed and said, "Duke Chu, our army can use the crane wing formation to defeat the enemy, and then send an army to the command of the officers and soldiers. In this way, our army can completely encircle the official army and completely annihilate it, without giving Wei Xuan the old man and Chen Yingliang the chance to retreat."

"Buhe Wing Formation, Lai Yuan, you lead two thousand infantry to the officers and soldiers formation and block the retreat path of the old thief Wei Xuan and the little thief Chen Yingliang."

Yang Xuangan didn't even look at Li Mi, and directly arranged the strategy of breaking the enemy according to Li Zixiong's suggestion. Seeing this, Li Mi was of course in despair and lamented in her heart, "It's over, even if we can win this time, our losses will definitely be less than there - completely encircled the troops of officers and soldiers who are waiting for the troops. Isn't this forcing the troops to fight to the end?"

No matter how much Li Mi lamented, it was useless. Under Yang Xuangan's order, the rebels quickly began to arrange troops through the 800 steps of the Sui army's circumference formation, concentrating heavy troops in the central army, and the mobile team quickly spread to the left and right wings. Two thousand infantrymen led by the famous Sui general Lai Hu'er unfilial son Lai Yuan, detoured across the Sui army's formation and advanced behind the Sui army to block the retreat route. The Sui army did not receive orders and ignored the rebels' detours. They just arranged horse fences against time to enhance the defense power of the square formation as much as possible.

Seeing the rebel arrangements from a high place on the earthen mountain, the old Wei stubborn who insisted on fighting together was a little worried. Chen Yingliang, who turned to command the entire army, said: "Ying Liang, do you know the formation of Yang's rebels? The crane wing formation with both offense and defense, and a rebel army crossed us directly to the east. Judging from the appearance, Yang's rebels were determined to wipe out us completely."

"Please rest assured to stay in the guard. The villain is at least behind the generals and knows the formation and purpose of the rebels." Chen Yingliang replied with a smile: "However, in my opinion, among the ten formations of Sun Bin, this crane wing formation happens to be the most wrong choice for Yang's rebels."

"The most wrong choice? Why?" Wei Xuan asked in surprise.

"Of course, it's because Yang's rebels have fewer main teams, and he uses the Crane Wing Formation to disperse his few main combat forces instead of focusing on one point of use. Wouldn't that be a big mistake?" Chen Yingliang said with a smile.

Wei Xuan thought something and thought Chen Yingliang's analysis was reasonable, but he did not dare to confirm that Chen Yingliang's analysis was correct. Chen Yingliang ignored Wei Xuan anymore, but just called Liu Changgong, who had been worn like an iron can, pointed to the right wing of the rebels and said, "Brother Liu\uff0

2000

c You see, the right wing of the rebels is named Yang, and it should be Yang Xuangan's younger brother Yang Jishan's command of the army. Yang Xuangan likes to appoint private individuals. The team under his younger brother must be elite combat soldiers. If nothing unexpected happens, Yang Ni will most likely attack our left wing first."

After carefully looking at the enemy situation on the opposite side and carefully observing the enemy situation on the left and right wings of his army, Liu Changgong nodded and said, "Yes, we should first attack our left wing. Our left wing has a relatively wide terrain, and there are some small hills on the right wing, which will hinder the army's combat. If I use my troops, I will also attack the left wing first."

"So our left wing is here to ask you." Chen Yingliang said in a deep voice: "No matter what, Brother Liu, please be sure to defend our left wing. As long as you can withstand the Yang rebels' head-on attack, we will get a chance to win."

"I..., I'll try." General Liu replied with little confidence: "I'll try to defend the left wing as much as possible. If it doesn't work, Brother Yingliang will send the national army to reinforce me."

"Of course." Chen Yingliang smiled and said casually, and reminded him: "Brother Liu, remember that your team is not impossible to fight, but your morale and fighting spirit are not as good as the enemy. When you are on the left, you must do everything possible to boost your morale and let your soldiers fight to the death. Also, you must be careful yourself."

"Thank you for your concern, brother." Liu Changgong laughed and patted his chest and said, "Don't worry, for safety, I have worn two layers of armor today. Even if there is a strait arrow shot, it will not hurt me at all." Chen Yingliang smiled again and bowed to Liu Changgong and left.

Soon, the main force of the rebels had been arranged, and the Sui army quickly built a thin but practical horse-defense fence. As a result, as Chen Yingliang and Liu Changgong expected, as the rebel flag waved in the rebel flag formation, the Yang Jishan team of the right wing of the rebels strided forward, led the second-tier team for a lifetime, fought a lifelong battle. Be careful that General Liu Changgong, who was wearing two layers of armor, finally ushered in the first fierce battle and hard battle in his life.

In view of the situation where the Sui army had built a horse-proof fence, Yang Jishan was very smart and rational in putting the cavalry team behind and letting the infantry take the lead. The purpose was to use the infantry to destroy the Sui army fence, open up the charge path for the cavalry team, and then use the cavalry's charge advantage to enter the Sui army formation, and completely destroy the Sui army's turtle formation from the inside.

On the side of Liu Changgong, General Liu also sold his strength to make a big move this time, constantly yelling in the formation to boost morale for the soldiers under his command and inspire the fighting spirit of these veterans under his command. "Brothers, the enemy has come, be prepared to fight to the end! They are all humans, why can the white-robed soldiers charge forward and fight to the battlefield? We can only follow them to choose a bargain? For our promotion and wealth, for our wife, we fight with the traitors! Win this battle, go home and hold the baby! Win this battle, go home and hold the baby!"

As General Liu shouted hard, and also in the sound of war drums of the rebel flag formation, Yang Jishan's team slowly deviated to the front of the left wing of the Sui army and set off a charge. Then the war drums of the rebel flag formation suddenly became big, and the rebel team under Yang Jishan also immediately launched a full-speed charge. General Liu immediately stopped shouting and cheering, yelling: "Shoot the arrow! Show me the arrow!"

The rain of arrows roaring out of the Sui army's circumference fired the first shot of Hongnong's decisive battle. The Sui army archers hiding behind the fence shot dense feather arrows into the sky, and roared and swirled over the sky and landed on the head of the rebels. The rebel infantry who were charging at full speed were shot one after another, and in an instant, more than a dozen people fell down, which was a good start for General Liu. However, the rebels, which had also gradually been trained in actual combat, were not in chaos, and they still strided forward in the rain of arrows, trying their best to get closer to the Sui army at full speed.

The enemy was unable to defeat three arrows, and after the three-wheeled arrow rain, the rebel infantry rushed to the front of the Sui army's fence. The Sui army soldiers hiding behind the fence, and immediately stabbed the spear in their hands, just like countless spears suddenly appeared in the fence. Many rebel infantry were not anxious and were pierced by the spears, screaming and falling into a pool of blood. The Sui army soldiers quickly returned their guns and stabbed them again. As the spears were stabbed, the charge momentum of the rebels\u9

1000

It was completely offset at 87f, and the speed was greatly reduced, and it was unable to break through the fence. It could only be through the fence with the Sui soldiers, and the rebel cavalry team hiding behind the infantry team did not find any opportunity to charge.

As blood splattered, the Sui army soldiers whose retreat had been cut off were yelling and stabbed the guns and stabbed the spears in their hands desperately at the rebel soldiers behind the thin fence. The same is true for the rebel soldiers. While stabbing the guns and killing them, they found opportunities to chop and smash the fences and fight against the Sui army soldiers. At this moment, the veterans under General Liu's command also took advantage of the experience advantages. In stabbing and killing the enemy, they could flexibly avoid the enemy with the light and wind sounds out of their eyes.

The spears and the exquisite equipment on the spears also allow them to reduce some of the damage power from the enemy, but the equipment of the rebel soldiers with varying quality cannot do this. Unless they are wearing Sui army equipment seized from the battlefield, they will be either killed or injured once they are stabbed by the spears. In addition, the Sui army archers hid behind and kept shooting feather arrows, so in close combat with the Sui army, except for the service army, the casualties were much greater than the Sui army.

Seeing that the Sui army had effectively resisted the rebels' charge with a thin fence, Wei Xuan was extremely surprised and could not help but beat his chest and stamped his feet. He said annoyedly: "I am so old and confused! When I was in Mangshan, why didn't I expect to build a fence when I was in the battle to block the rebels' charge and fence against the thorns, and give full play to our equipment and training advantages?"

"The guard stays behind, and this tactic is adapted to local conditions." Chen Yingliang pointed to the ground at the foot of the Tushan Mountain and said: "This area is full of farmland cultivated by the people of Hongnong. The soil is soft. Of course, you can quickly build fences when you are in the battle. The ghost places like Mangshan are full of hard and hard stones. Isn't it because the fence is built yet, and the cavalry of the rebels have already come to your flag formation."

Wei Xuan was stunned. He wanted to praise Chen Yingliang for his careful observation, but he was a little dissatisfied with Chen Yingliang's disrespectful attitude, so he simply scolded: "Damn it! You kid, that old man Fan Zigai\u533

1000

9 You have a good life like a husband, and you will encounter such a favorable terrain."

Wei Xuan cursed unconvincedly in the Sui army's flag formation. Seeing that the Sui army's team had blocked the charge of its own team with a thin fence, Yang Xuangan naturally gritted his teeth in the rebel flag formation, patted the armrest of the handsome chair and said annoyedly: "I really shouldn't give Chen Xiaopi a time to repair the fence, otherwise our cavalry would have broken Chen Xiaopi's left wing long ago!"

"Mr. Chu, we must open the breakthrough as soon as possible, otherwise our situation will only become worse and worse." Li Mi, who finally proved his suggestion, spoke quickly and reminded: "Our soldiers did not rest well last night. The weather today was too clear. The soldiers' physical strength to fight under the scorching sun is very large. It will be very unfavorable for us over time."

Looking at the few sparse clouds in the sky, Yang Xuangan nodded and shouted: "Go and send an order to Yang Jishan. Within a quarter of an hour, be sure to break through the left wing of the officers and soldiers and open the gap that broke into the officers and soldiers' formation."

Hearing this, the veteran General Li Zixiong, who was slapped in the face again, was of course embarrassed. He only secretly hated Yang Jishan's team's poor execution, let down his magical tactics, and made painstaking arrangements, and also gave the younger generation Li Mi the chance to succeed.

After Yang Xuangan's order was quickly transmitted to the throne, Yang Jishan was also a little anxious. In addition to ordering the infantry to step up the attack, he also came to the front of the formation and led the commander team to urge the infantry to charge in an upward manner. General Liu from the Sui army also followed suit. In addition to leading the supervision team to force the soldiers to resist tenaciously, he also cut off a soldier who was afraid of retreating, yelling, "Hold on! Hold on to me! For your wife's baby, hold on to me! Don't forget that if you lose this battle, you will never have the chance to go home to hold the baby in your life!"

With the expulsion and encouragement of the generals on both sides, the intensity of the battle on the defense line of the fence increased again. The soldiers of both armies were stabbing guns and assassinating with blood red eyes. The sword and shield hands kept making up for the missing and scoring the enemy's arms and weapons that stretched through the fence. The inside and outside of the fence were filled with flesh and blood, and countless casualties were injured.

In the 218th game, it fell into a cruel stalemate like a meat grinder.

During the stalemate, the left wing team of the Sui army, which was already a little shaky, suddenly cheered loudly. It turned out that at some point, a regiment of soldiers of the service army had already arrived at the left wing. Seeing these friendly troops wearing conspicuous white robes appear, the Sui army soldiers guarding the fence did not know that a divine power emerged from there, cheering and roaring, stabbing the spears and spears in their hands faster and more fiercely, stabbing the rebel soldiers who had already begun to squeeze the fence into blood and screaming.

On the contrary, when the rebels, who had already suffered great losses in the battle of the National Army in Jinyong City and Luoyang's defense, were scattered. While subconsciously hindered his legs, he screamed loudly, "The white-robed soldiers are here! Those monster white-robed soldiers are here!"

The morale and fighting spirit suddenly grew one after another. With strong companions as supporters, the morale of the Sui army soldiers was rising. Leng slammed and stabbed the rebels to retreat, forcing the rebels to lose their morale to retreat one after another, and immediately stabilized the fence defense line, and then took the opportunity to quickly repair the small number of fences that were cut and smashed by the rebel soldiers. Yang Jishan screamed in anger behind him, but he was helpless. Then, under Yang Xuangan's roaring order, although the rebel infantry team once again launched a charge at the Sui army's fence, the momentum was far less fierce than before. The Sui army soldiers who had already shown confidence calmly welcomed the enemy without moving their troops, and fought with the rebels on the fence defense line in a difficult way, without giving the rebels any chance to make a breakthrough.

At the same time, the rebels' left wing team also took action. When the terrain was not very suitable for attack, they deviated to the front of the right wing of the Sui army and launched a strong attack on the right wing of the Sui army. This time, Chen Yingliang did not make any tactical arrangements or mobilizations, and allowed the right wing Sui army to defend the enemy alone. Wei Xuan, who liked to act recklessly, was a little worried and said to Chen Yingliang in a low voice: "Yingliang, the right wing is also starting a war. Should I send a regiment of troops to serve as a reserve team?"

"No need." Chen Yingliang replied in a low voice: "Our right wing has many hills and ditches, which is not conducive to the rebels' charge with all their might. It is difficult for the rebels to make a breakthrough. Also, it is useless to send the national army to send it now. Just the little force of the national army will be a drop in the bucket when it comes to such a decisive battle. Instead of sending it to make up for the leaks and plugging the gaps, it is better to wait until the right wing is in danger and send it to encourage morale and attack the enemy's morale."

What made Wei Xuan extremely depressed was that the battle situation was once again in Chen Yingliang's information. With the unfavorable terrain, the rebels attacking the right wing of the Sui army were first covered by as many as four rounds of feather arrows, and then stabbed by the spears of the Sui army soldiers. They were also quickly confined to the fence defense line and could not make progress. At the same time, because the team was not as elite as the team under Yang Jishan, they were even more severely killed by the Sui army soldiers. In less than a moment, they were forced to retreat and reorganize the team.

Seeing this situation, Wei Xuan was secretly happy, and a nameless anger surged into his heart unbearable, gritting his teeth in his heart, "The surname Chai! Remember me! If it weren't for you, I would have lost so badly in Mangshan before? This boy named Chen next to me would have been in vain again, that old man Fan Zigai was vain?!"

After being secretly angry, Wei Xuan tried to calm himself down and observed the battlefield for a moment. Wei Xuan turned to Chen Yingliang and asked: "Yingliang, although we are fighting well now, we are always in a balanced position. If this continues, how can we win? How can we have the opportunity to defeat the thieves?"

"Of course there is!" Chen Yingliang nodded confidently, and pointed to the rebel flag formation directly in front of him and said firmly: "When the Yang rebels launched a head-on attack, it is the opportunity for us to win a great victory! This time I put the service army in the middle of the square formation and did not allow them to charge, just waiting for this opportunity!"

Chen Yingliang had actually almost waited for this opportunity. In the rebel flag formation at almost the same time, seeing the attacking teams on the left and right wings were blocked by the fences of the Sui army, Yang Xuangan was furious and was ready to order a head-on attack, and he had to lead the army to attack personally as usual. Unfortunately, Li Zixiong and Li Mi joined forces again this time and persuaded him: "\u6

e12

95a, don’t worry, although we are not at an advantage, we are not at a disadvantage. The battle situation is currently stalemate, and it is not the time for a head-on attack."

After being persuaded by Li Zixiong and Li Mi in this joint effort, Yang Xuangan, who could still hear some unpleasant words, had to give up his plan to attack immediately, sat back on his handsome chair, and shouted: "Water! Come with water, I am thirsty!"

The personal soldiers quickly presented clean water. After drinking two sips, they felt bored. Because they were rushing to get a tent and ordered some soldiers before they finished their breakfast. Yang Xuangan couldn't help but think of a trivial matter and ordered: "When the camp was just out, didn't there any local people send wine and meat to reward the teacher? Take a jar of wine and then bring some meat and steamed buns. Benzhuguo was a little hungry."

"Take more." Li Zixiong also said casually: "I went to the bill to discuss the matter before I finished breakfast today. I was a little hungry."
