Chapter 269
Leaving the big tent of the Chinese army, Shang Ji became more and more upset as he thought about it, but he had to endure it for a while.
When he returned to the army and reported the situation to the generals in the army, everyone was filled with righteous indignation and accused Zhang Wen of being biased and lacking the demeanor that an army commander should have.
However, everyone reprimanded them, and no one could change the status quo. They could only acquiesce in the ending.
Seeing that everyone was a little depressed, Shang Ji quickly said: "Everyone, don't be discouraged. The Xianbei army is more than three million. Even if we don't have a chance to kill Helian, we have enough merits to earn!"
"When Helian broke through, there must be other troops attacking everywhere to attract our attention and increase the success rate of the breakout. This is our opportunity!"
"I order that from today on, the entire army will be on the highest alert, ready to attack at any time, to wipe out the Xianbei enemy army, and to restore peace to our people!"
"The final general will obey the order of the lord (general)!"
Shocked by Shang Ji's words, everyone shouted in unison.
In the next few days, the situation was as expected, and the Xianbei army began to gather at Zhang Ling. Although the mobilization was relatively hidden, Zhang Wen had already prepared, and under deliberate investigation, some clues could still be found.
Shang Ji discovered the same situation through Donghu Shengying, and it was almost certain that Helian planned to break out from here.
Shang Ji could only watch enviously, but could not intervene.
Enraged, the nearby Xiaogu Xianbei fell ill. Shang Ji, who was filled with resentment in his heart, vented all his dissatisfaction on the Xianbei people. Although there was no large group of Xianbei to attack, the small group of Xianbei was like a cow's hair, and they couldn't be cleaned up no matter how hard they were.
Shang Ji led two thousand black-armored black knights, together with Zhang Fei and Tai Shici who also had resentment in their hearts, they were constantly looking for trouble for the small Xianbei army. In a few days, countless Xianbei troops were wiped out Thousands of giants.
Once again wiped out a small group of Xianbei with thousands of people, Shang Ji habitually connected to Shengying and began to look for the next valuable target.
It's okay not to look at it, but I was shocked when I saw it.
I saw at least a million Xianbei troops rushing towards Zhang Ling. At a glance, the vanguard of the army was the elite wolf cavalry of the Xianbei army.
In addition, there are also 200,000 to 300,000 Xianbei troops marching frantically in different directions. They are obviously dead soldiers sent to attract firepower to contain the Han army.
"Something has happened, let's go back immediately!"
Taking a general look at the situation, Shang Ji cut off the connection with Shengying, and said to the several people behind him with a solemn face.
"General, is the war starting?" Seeing this, Zhang Fei asked excitedly.
Shang Ji didn't answer, but nodded slowly.
"The whole army obeys the order and returns to the camp at full speed!" At the same time as the order was issued, Shang Ji also took out a communication talisman to pass the news that the Xianbei army had begun a large-scale breakout to Liu Yi, who had been in the army.
Although Shang Ji was not allowed to lead his army to participate in the encirclement and suppression of Helian, he still had the responsibility to encircle the Xianbei army.
Through the observation of the holy eagle just now, at least 300,000 Xianbei troops rushed towards me. Although the 300,000 Xianbei army's combat power is far inferior to that of Shang Ji's army, Shang Ji, as a commander, naturally cannot be paralyzed and needs to act cautiously .
After Shang Ji brought his men back to the barracks, the army was ready to go out under the leadership of Liu Yi, ready for the next big battle at any time.
"Everyone, the general intends to take the initiative to meet the enemy, rely on our army's combat power, quickly eliminate the enemy who breaks through the encirclement, and then move around to support the nearby friendly forces. I don't know what everyone thinks?"
Shang Ji's plan is to eat his own share first, and then "support" the friendly forces around, and grab a few heads by the way.
The surrounding county soldiers would definitely not dislike what Shang Ji did. If someone offered to support them, it would be too late for them to enjoy it. How could they reject the reinforcements?
That is to say, Shang Ji himself wished that more Xianbei troops would attack him.
Naturally, everyone had no objection to this proposal, and soon, under the leadership of Shang Ji, the army headed towards the Xianbei army that had broken through.
On the march, Shang Ji kept in touch with Donghu Shengying and observed the entire battlefield.
First of all, at Zhang Ling's place, the Xianbei army and the Han army have begun to fight hand to hand. With the wolf cavalry as the vanguard, the Xianbei army swarmed in. As expected of Zhang Ling, who was born in the elite of the Northern Army, he didn't panic at all. Centered on the Northern Army, he blocked them layer by layer, exhausting the physical strength of the Xianbei Army.
The Han army was assisted by a large number of county soldiers, and hundreds of thousands of elite northern troops were in the middle. Even if the Xianbei army used wolf cavalry as the vanguard, it could not penetrate the Han army formation.
"It's a pity, relying on wolf cavalry can't break through the elite defensive line of the Northern Army!" After observing for a while, Shang Ji shook his head slightly in his heart. As long as Zhang Ling and Zhang Wen don't make any childish mistakes, Xianbei on the frontal battlefield will hardly even think about breaking through on a large scale. .
"Ok?"
All of a sudden, Shang Ji let out a light snort, feeling something was wrong.
Immediately control the holy eagle, lower the flying altitude, and carefully observe the battlefield.
The holy eagle flew twice on the battlefield, and Shang Ji's frown became deeper and deeper.
"No, why didn't you see the Heavenly Wolf Cavalry from the imperial court of Xianbei?"
"Not good! It's a trick!" He circled around the battlefield a few times again, but still didn't find any sign of Sirius Cavalry, Shang Ji immediately slapped his thigh and shouted loudly.
"Hurry up, send someone to inform Zhang Wen that Helian is not there, he must have secretly broken out from other places!" Before he had time to explain to everyone, Shang Ji shouted and immediately roared.
When the messenger left, Shang Ji took a deep breath and said silently: "I hope there is still time!"
"My dear brother, what's the matter? What happened?" Until then, Liu Yi interrupted to ask a question.
"I'm afraid we were all fooled!" Shang Ji glanced at Liu Yi, and said with a wry smile, "We all underestimated Helian, according to the investigation just now, the Xianbei army is fierce, but Helian's guards are the only ones that are missing." The traces of Sirius Rider!"
"Sirius Cavalry has always been Lord Xianbei's outspoken imperial guards, Xianbei's most ace army, if Helian leads the army to break through, it is impossible not to bring Sirius Cavalry with him!"
"So, the millions of Xianbei elites on the frontal battlefield, including 500,000 wolf cavalry, are all cannon fodder to cover and break through?" Liu Yi gasped and asked in disbelief.
Shang Ji nodded with a wry smile, and sighed: "We all underestimated He Lian, he is really cruel!"
Not to mention the millions of Xianbei troops on the frontal battlefield, even most of the diversion forces that were originally thought to be real cannon fodder were cannon fodder, and there was only one place where Helian and his Sirius cavalry might be hidden.
In order to break out of the siege, almost all of the 3 million troops were abandoned by He Lian, but what Shang Ji couldn't figure out was that even if he succeeded in breaking out of the siege, what qualifications did he have to continue to sit in the royal court?
Without the elite army of the headquarters, 100,000 Sirius cavalry alone would not be enough to suppress the entire grassland, not to mention, Ke Bi Neng and Bu Dugen were staring at each other?
