On the battlefield, the battle situation is developing and changing rapidly.
After all, it is a chaotic battle situation with only about a thousand people, and the alternation of offense and defense may change at any time.
For example, Feng Xi, after receiving the assistance of a hundred soldiers brought by Liu Yin, was finally able to stabilize the frontal defense line of Dachangji, continued to struggle with Zhang He's more than a hundred soldiers, and even vaguely suppressed Zhang He in turn. Ministry trends.
It is precisely because of this that Liu Yin dared to build a second line of defense at the back. Otherwise, if Liu Yin could not even block the front, it would be meaningless for Liu Yin to build a second line of defense.
To be honest, this second line of defense is not a very clever move.
Generals who are less able to control the battlefield situation, or generals who are less willing to use their brains, may not necessarily notice Liu Yin's small actions in forming a second line of defense in such a chaotic battle where the battlefield situation is relatively complicated. Zhang He doesn't know how.
A melee of this scale was obviously not enough to absorb all of Zhang He's energy, and it was difficult to hide it from the eyes of Zhang He, a famous general who had experienced many battles.
The question of whether the soldiers brought by Liu Yin are considered reinforcements is put aside for now. Zhang He really can't tell. But if the Shu army wants to establish a second line of defense and continue to hold on, Zhang He will definitely not be able to do so.
On the front, facing Feng Xi who had already received support, Zhang He really couldn't do anything to him for a while, and he didn't dare to challenge him in a one-on-one duel. Zhang He, who was old and had no horses or guns, still There is really no certainty that Feng Xi will be defeated in a short time.
Therefore, it is temporarily impossible to break through from the front, and we can only think of ways from the flanks.
On the one hand, Zhang He commanded his more than 100 soldiers to try their best to hold back more than 200 people of Feng Xi. On the other hand, he ordered the attacking troops on the flanks to temporarily retreat first, and then concentrated to attack a defensive line to gain a second line of defense for the Shu army. Before it is established, focus on breaking through the past.
As long as they break through, this second line of defense will never be established.
Zhang He has his own ideas, but this idea is not very brilliant.
Feng Xi knows very well what Liu Yin is doing, and Feng Xi also understands the state of his flank defenders. And you, Zhang He, are fighting well, and suddenly you have your flank offensive troops retreat and concentrate. What is your target? Feng Xi is not difficult to guess at all.
It's not hard to guess, but it's still difficult for Feng Xi to deal with it.
The frontal direction cannot be given up, which means that Feng Xi cannot leave the frontal battlefield and rescue the defenders on the flanks in time.
Liu Yin was also commanding his soldiers to actively deploy defenses, and for a while he had no time to lead troops to support the flank battlefield. Besides, Feng Xi also knew very well that although Liu Yin was capable of leading troops in combat, he was not a military commander. With his martial arts skills, it is not easy to protect himself in such a chaotic battle. You can't expect him to personally lead the troops into battle.
Therefore, once the Wei army completes its assembly and breaks through key points, if the flanking defenders are no longer able to stop it, Liu Yin's troops will be easily dispersed before the defense line is established.
Feng Xi had suffered this loss and would never dare to forget it.
So there is only one choice.
Frontal attack.
Strengthen the attack on the front, especially the siege of Zhang He. Zhang He was in danger and did not believe that Zhang He still had the courage to continue attacking the flanks.
This is what Feng Xi thinks.
There is a saying that Feng Xi was somewhat wrong about Zhang He. If Zhang He didn't have this courage, he wouldn't be able to reach his current position.
Therefore, when Feng Xi launched a strong attack, Zhang He immediately guessed Feng Xi's plan.
However, Zhang He sneered at Feng Xi's approach and didn't care at all.
I'll let you attack. If I don't believe you can tear apart my defense line in a short time, it's your flank defense line. I probably only need to attack again and I can rush through with a point of breaking the surface.
By that time, your defeat is certain.
Isn't it just about fighting for time? If you dare to fight, I'll bet.
Zhang He still had great confidence in his martial arts and the combat effectiveness of his soldiers. He did not believe that his soldiers could be defeated by Feng Xi's troops in a short period of time.
And this is indeed the case.
Feng Xi switched from defense to offense. Although he once suppressed the Wei army's defense line with the advantage of large numbers, under Zhang He's calm command, Feng Xi really could not break through the Wei army's defense line for a while.
And watching, the Wei army on the flanks has completed its assembly and can immediately launch an attack on Feng Xijun's flanks.
Once the Wei army really starts to attack, even Feng Xi himself doesn't know how long his flank troops can hold out.
Anyway, there is a high probability that he will not be able to attack Zhang He and force Zhang He to withdraw his troops.
When the situation reached this level, Feng Xi also became ruthless.
Before, I could retreat because I still had a way out. But now, I have reached the point of no retreat.
If he retreats again, the only thing waiting for him is to lose Dachangji and be defeated by Zhang He for the third time.
Let's not talk about the importance of this battle to defend Dachangji. Let's talk about myself. If he loses this time, he will lose to Zhang He three times in five days.
Such a failure was extremely embarrassing, and Feng Xi could no longer live in this world with dignity. Losing was just death, so it was better to give it a try.
Even if he died in battle, it would be better than dying of shame after losing three times in a row. At least if the news spread, his reputation would not be too bad.
Feng Xi decided to risk his life and rush into battle.
Generally speaking, military commanders charge into the formation for the purpose of penetrating the enemy's defense line, and they also need to take into account the command of the army.
But in Feng Xi's charge, Zhang He was the only target. Wherever Zhang He was, he would attack wherever he was.
And it's the kind of charge into battle that involves risking one's life.
Faced with the Wei soldiers blocking the way, Feng Xi ignored them at all. He swiped the sword and forced the Wei army back. He did not let the soldiers take advantage of the situation to expand the gap and open the attack channel. Instead, he only took a few guards around him to kill them all the way. past.
This is not the world of Wushuang Mowing. Feng Xi rushed in with only a few guards. He was fast, but as long as there was a slight obstruction, or Zhang He took the initiative to retreat a little, Feng Xi could only die in the battle. Surrounded by the Wei army.
This is also the reason why Guan Yu became so famous after beheading Yan Liang on a white horse. Even the generals of Cao Wei recognized him and said that Liu Bei's side was "only Yu".
That's not something ordinary people can do.
Therefore, when Zhang He saw Feng Xi charging into the battle with only a few guards, he also sneered.
When Guan Yu killed Yan Liang, he still had an elite cavalry of more than a hundred people with him. Otherwise, Guan Yu alone would not be able to kill Yan Liang even if he was exhausted. You kid doesn't even have half of Guan Yu's abilities, yet you dare to lead a few people. Just charge into battle? !
Therefore, Zhang He did not retreat at all, and had no intention of retreating. Faced with such a charge, Zhang He would lose if he took a step back.
However, Zhang He somewhat underestimated Feng Xi's determination to rush into battle.
Feng Xi really risked his life.
He fought fiercely along the way, withstood the Huanshou swords constantly struck by Wei soldiers, and suffered many wounds on his body, but he managed to rush to a distance of about thirty steps from Zhang He.
At this time, there were no guards around Feng Xi. All of his personal guards had been killed in the battle.
Anyone with a discerning eye can see that Feng Xi is at the end of his strength at this time.
No matter how he fought, he was always surrounded by the Wei army in a small area, and this encirclement was getting smaller and smaller.
And Feng Xi himself has been killed into a bloody man. Some of Wei's soldiers and some of his own.
At this point, Feng Xi still persisted, fighting all the way, and continued to move in the direction of Zhang He.
This scene made Zhang He feel passionate and ambitious.
Although Zhang He is old, he fought all the way through this way when he was young. The difference is that Zhang He fought through the enemy's army all the way and killed him out, while Feng Xi will most likely not be able to kill him.
In Zhang He's view, although Feng Xi's charge into the battle was very irrational, under such circumstances, he could make such a decision and understand it. The most important thing is that this man still has the blood as a military general. .
This is much better than some idiots who can only talk on paper.
To be honest, Zhang He didn't think highly of Feng Xi before, but now, Zhang He at least has to admit that this Feng Xi is a man.
Well, recognition is recognition, and appreciation is appreciation. Zhang He has no intention of letting Feng Xi go because of this.
Those who deserve to be killed must be killed.
The two armies are at war, each fighting for its own master, and the battlefield is not a place for soft-heartedness.
Besides, if Feng Xi can be killed in one fell swoop, it will severely damage the morale of the Shu army in Dachang, and the Shu army may break up and flee.
This was something that only benefited him and had no harm to him. Zhang He was so full that he sympathized with Feng Xi.
Therefore, Zhang He ordered to continue the siege of Feng Xi and not give Feng Xi any chance to make a comeback and break out of the encirclement.
At the same time, Zhang He saw that his flank troops had been assembled, and he did not forget to let these flank troops attack to break through the Shu army's defense line and not give the Shu army a chance to establish a second direction.
It's a two-pronged approach.
Although after Feng Xi's death, the Shu army on the front was leaderless and Zhang He was sure of defeating it with one blow, but just in case, the flanks also had to launch an attack.
Try to defeat the Shu army as soon as possible. After all, time is not good for you, right? ! what? !
Zhang He was thinking about how to launch an attack when he suddenly saw a black thing poking straight towards his upper body.
Almost relying on so many years of battlefield experience and intuition, Zhang He subconsciously dodged sideways. But then, Zhang He felt a sharp pain in his right leg.
It looked like an arrow had hit his right leg.
