The soldiers behind blocked the road, and those who finally escaped were not used to it at all. They squeezed and squeezed and found that they were too slow. The enemy was getting closer, and the blood on the Changge seemed to be dripping on them.
Go to Lima.
A soldier cursed with red eyes and waved the weapon in his hand towards his robe.
The blood mist dispersed, and anxiety covered up the last trace of reason.
People's desperation when fleeing for their lives became the last giant tree that crushed the Jin soldiers in the front camp, not even a straw.
The collapse was very complete.
As a result, before he could hand over Temari River, he was forced to run backwards by the soldiers. If he didn't run, he would die.
In the panic, people fell down from time to time, but no one could see or hear them. All they could see was their backs and the sword in their hands stained with the blood of their own robes.
Countless big feet trampled over the unfortunate person's body, and he died soon after, even his internal organs were squeezed out.
Up to now, it was less than a stick of incense time from the discovery of the Jin army to the defeat of the Jin army's front camp. The smell of blood in the air was already so strong that it was unaccustomed to it. The Jin army was trampled, injured and killed even more than those killed in head-to-head confrontations. many.
At this time, eight hundred backup troops led by Wu Chengju also rushed to the gate of the village, holding up torches and charging towards them.
Yan Tao was very angry. This sudden army must belong to the King of Jin.
Not to mention an organized army within a radius of twenty miles, there are not even villages with a population of more than 1,000. Even if there are, they have been robbed by themselves.
"Prince Jin!" Yan Tao cursed fiercely in a low voice.
"It's all specially brewed, please hurry up."
There are not many troops in the rear camp. In order to maximize the harvest, most of the 10,000 people under Yan Tao's command dispersed to work in the grass and valleys. There is only one brigade with more than 2,000 people, while the front camp has more than 1,500 people. people.
Although the soldiers in the rear camp were all armored elites, they only totaled two companies of 400 people, and Ju Chuan had just brought out 50 or 60 people.
The gathering speed of more than 300 armored soldiers is not too slow, but at this time, no matter how fast it is, it is like a slow motion replay, even if Yan Tao's whip cracks louder, kicking a soldier's butt from time to time. It won't help if the dog eats shit.
After all, it takes time to assemble. The battle formation does not mean that you can just go to that station casually. Wang Ye was able to do it because Guan Cheng practiced creatively several times last night, and Wang Ye even took the time to review a few numbers during the day. Second-rate.
The armoring of the soldiers took more time and was difficult to complete by one person. After this pass, Yan Tao only had time to assemble a company before he saw the defeated soldiers rushing over.
Yan Tao couldn't believe that his soldiers were almost the most elite in the Kingdom of Jin. They were defeated in just a few quarters of an hour from the moment they discovered the enemy's attack on the camp.
Although he was shocked in his heart, his mind was calm: "Hurry up and tell them to retreat from both sides. They are not allowed to attack the military formation, otherwise they will be killed without mercy!"
Yan Tao's decision was correct, and the soldiers shouted as ordered, and the fleeing Jin soldiers heard it clearly, but at this critical moment of escape, who cares whether you will hit the military formation, everyone only knows The straight line between two points is the shortest. We also know that the longer the stride length and the faster the cadence, the farther the distance you run at the same time, and the farther you go, the safer you are (although I don’t know the concept of stride length and cadence, but it means Still understand).
Yan Tao's face was ashen, and the voices of more than a hundred people could not wake up these rabbits at all.
"Fire arrows for me!"
The captain hurriedly advised: "General, you can't! Those are our own brothers!"
Yan Tao grabbed the captain's collar and said viciously: "Idiot, if you don't let go of the arrow and let King Jin's men rush over, I will die with you. If you keep talking, I will kill you first!"
"Quick, shoot the arrow!"
Armored Jin soldiers continued to enter the queue, but there were very few archers in the panic.
The team that has expanded to more than 200 people has only a hundred bows and crossbows, so it is difficult to form a mass shooting.
The sound of arrows piercing the air and entering the body was like a small wave in the turbulent current.
"Rockets, odd-numbered flat shots and even-numbered projectiles!" Yan Tao shouted with his eyes wide open.
Officers at all levels quickly commanded their soldiers to adjust their angles. This is one of the main reasons why Yan Tao's army has extraordinary combat power among the Jin army. It is also the reason why the Jin army can crush the Shupeng coalition and triple its territory in decades. one of the reasons.
The intensity of training in the Jin Army is far higher than that of Peng and Shu. At least all the grassroots officers with odd and even numbers can understand that this is a qualitative difference.
Most of the officers who rose from the rank of soldiers did not even know the words, let alone the odd and even numbers.
The effect of the fire arrow was obviously much better. The Jin Army soldiers who were rushing at the front fell down in rows. They were a little stunned. They reacted smartly and quickly separated and circled to both sides.
The Jin Army soldiers in the rear suddenly had their eyes wide open, but Paoze on the ground still had flaming arrows stuck in his body. Such an abrupt and obvious warning of casualties had an immediate effect.
Hundreds of Jin Army soldiers finally found the right outlet and poured towards both sides.
When Wang Ye and others caught up, what they saw was more than a company of Jin Army soldiers who were ready to go. Although they were still a little untidy, the military formations were already in place, and officers at all levels were shuttled among them to shout loudly to their subordinates. Cheer up and even be ready to press forward at any time.
There are more and more archers in the rear, and they have begun to launch fire under the command of the officer. There are also officers who are collecting the broken troops and trying to reorganize them into combat effectiveness. However, most of these people have lost their weapons. No one has armor on them, and the supplies of the rear camp cannot meet the needs of nearly a thousand people. For a while, these There is no way to transform the defeated troops into real strength.
By this time, the direct dividends brought by the raid had basically disappeared. Although many enemy soldiers were still panicking, and the morale of the entire Jin army was greatly affected, the enemy was already well prepared and would continue to fight. is the hard power of the military.
Moreover, Wang Ye and others did not bring many shields, and their casualties increased sharply under the attack of enemy archers.
"What are you looking at? Hurry up!" Guan Cheng was anxious. Soldiers fell down, were injured, or died every moment. These people were the foundation of his foothold. Every missing one was painful.
"Your Highness, the enemy has formed a formation. If our army cannot break through in a short time, the casualties will be greater. Moreover, our army does not carry many crossbows or shields, so the formation battle will be very disadvantageous."
"Fart!" At this time, Guan Cheng still had no trace of his previous elegance. His hair was scattered and there was a lot of blood on his body. The blood on the long sword in his hand had long solidified, but it looked sharper.
"The enemy's morale is in chaos right now. How many armored soldiers can there be in the front? One company or two companies? If we don't charge now, when will we wait? Charge!" Guan Cheng roared without any doubt.
"Your Highness has suffered too many casualties. What if these elites are all on the road?"
Guan Cheng grabbed Wang Ye and said with an unspeakable harshness in his tone: "Guan Cheng, this is Gu's army. You have disappointed Gu very much."
The number of crossbowmen among the Jin soldiers soon exceeded a hundred. Yan Tao almost desperately ordered the crossbowmen to release arrows and shoot quickly, without considering the issue of physical strength at all.
Nearly a hundred of the 500-strong Jin army fell while Guan Cheng and others were speaking. This made the remaining Jin army soldiers begin to panic. The casualties were too great, approaching 20%. Even if a clever soldier picked up the corpse or shield on the ground, calling back and forth with his long hand could not give him any more sense of security.
It is extremely dangerous to have military morale shaken.
Guan Cheng let go of Wang Ye and immediately pushed forward. This move scared Wang Ye to death and also attracted the attention of the soldiers.
Guan Cheng picked up a torch on the ground. The torch that was about to go out suddenly burned a little brighter when it came into contact with the air.
"Brothers Gu's Paoze, Gu is with you. It's the man who takes the lead and kills with Gu!"
Guan Cheng pointed his long sword forward, and in the flickering yellowish firelight, the young prince instantly grew taller in the eyes of the soldiers.
The soldiers were all ordinary people at the bottom. They knew their identities, but they never thought that a prince would charge forward. This was something they had never dared to imagine for hundreds of years. The prince's family was already extremely expensive, let alone the royal family. The prince.
Everyone knows this prince, and everyone has more or less followed the former prince, either on parades out of the city or to support corrupt officials.
Generally speaking, everyone's respect for the former crown prince comes from the heart.
Even if he is down and out, he is still a prince. As long as the princes in the world do not have the courage to face the attacks of other countries, then his highness will still have a noble status no matter where he goes. Even if he is locked up with a different surname in the world, he can still get a title based on his status. .
Guan Cheng dares to rush to the front even if he is not afraid of death. Which of us men is not a good man and will not lead the way.
The morale of the soldiers stabilized the moment Guan Cheng stood up, and surged up again to a new height the moment Guan Cheng rushed out.
Guan Cheng was betting that he didn't know that the princes and princes were not on the front line. After all, almost everyone in the world firmly believed that a gentleman should not stand under a dangerous wall. Otherwise, if he was in trouble and his sword was not smart, he would You don't have to fight like a clay leg to stand out.
Guan Cheng once read history and felt that there was a saying that was particularly reasonable: the people did not worry about scarcity but about inequality.
It's just fair, even a little bit fair.
Although going deep into the lives of the common people did not allow him to fully feel what the common people were like, and his empathy was still somewhat lacking, it was enough for him to put aside his body and do many things.
Just like now.
The cry for death behind him went straight into the sky.
Not only the more than 400 people behind him, but also Wu Chengju's 800 people further away who were quickly coming up to support them.
Yan Tao's eyes were filled with hatred at this time. He had never paid homage to any Jin king. In his eyes, Datong only had eight counties. A prince was nothing more than a fallen phoenix, worse than a pheasant. Even the status of the prince of Liang was lower than that of a phoenix. Taller than him, he only glanced at her from a distance, but his eyes were immediately attracted to the woman next to him.
But at this moment, he recognized at a glance that the one rushing to the front was Guan Cheng, the former prince and now the king of Jin.
"How dare Shu Zian invade my camp!" Yan Tao roared angrily.
At this time, Ju Chuan had already come up to him with a look of shame on his face, but Yan Tao didn't care about the mood of this old subordinate at all.
This brigade is considered his most elite subordinates, with more than two thousand people. However, only half of them were left in just half an hour, and nearly a thousand people were temporarily incapacitated. Even if they were repaired later, the brigade would be almost useless. Without a few victories in a year or two, it would be impossible. Can't return to peak condition.
Soldiers and horses have the right to speak. Yan Tao was able to prosper in the Jin Kingdom. He firmly held the position of the first person in the army because of his status as a relative and his greed for money and lust. The leader of the Jin Kingdom had no need to worry about him. He may usurp in the future, and even if he has that intention, no one will support him. On the other hand, and most importantly, he has the most capable troops in the entire Jin Kingdom, and the leader of the Jin Kingdom also needs someone like him in the clan. To check and balance the other Sima.
But once the balance is broken, if he has no use value, what will be waiting for him?
If there were no such thing, those political opponents in the past would definitely tear him alive.
The political struggle in the Kingdom of Jin was far more severe than that in other countries. Yan Tao was both a general and a politician.
"Set me an arrow and shoot him to death!"
Yan Tao's eyes were red and he looked indifferent.
When Ju Chuan heard that Zhengchou had no chance to atone for his sins, he immediately grabbed a bow and shouted: "General, I will shoot this thief for the general."
It was obvious that Maruchuan had not yet realized the identity of that boy.
The long bow is full of moon, and the sharp arrow is in the string.
Marichuan's right hand held the tail feather tightly. It was relatively easy to shoot a soldier at such a close distance.
But then Maruchuan let go of his right hand, and the bow string vibrated and made a buzzing sound. An arrow suddenly appeared in Guan Cheng's eyes like a ghost in the dark night, and a black spot quickly enlarged and then hit his body.
Guan Cheng was hit directly by this huge force and fell backwards.
A thought flashed through his mind: Hiss, my chest really hurts.
