Chapter 778: Stop when You See Fit
A majestic Liangzhou Army commander held his sword and angrily stared at the Yizhou soldier in front of him, roared and rushed forward.
"Death to the little thief!"
The Yizhou soldier opposite him sneered, stretched out his spear to resist, and then turned around and ran away. The Liangzhou soldiers were naturally unwilling to give up, chasing closely behind the Yizhou soldiers and refusing to let go.
Unexpectedly, the sole of the Liangzhou soldier's foot slipped and he fell to the ground with an ouch. The Yizhou soldier was overjoyed when he heard the cry, turned around and stabbed out a spear without saying a word.
Poof!
"Well"
The Liangzhou soldier screamed in pain, his back was stabbed with a spear, and the wound was filled with blood.
The Yizhou soldiers were good at fighting in the mountains, so although their strength was smaller than that of the Liangzhou Army, they still had the upper hand, and the Liangzhou Army was only defensive for a while.
Zhang Ren stared at the high-flying Liu-character Zhongjun banner, with a cold light flashing in his eyes.
"If Liu Ye can be ambushed here in one fell swoop, wouldn't the Liangzhou army fall apart?"
As soon as this thought appeared in my mind, I couldn't get it out of my mind. Zhang Ren immediately issued an order: "Order Leng Bao and Deng Xian to lead their troops from north to south to attack Liu Ye's middle army."
"Here!"
Leng Bao and Deng Xian were leading their troops to struggle with the Liangzhou Army. After hearing Zhang Ren's order, they all obeyed and led nearly 10,000 Yizhou troops under their respective command to swoop towards the central army of the Liangzhou Army.
"General, the enemy seems to be encircling us."
Jia Xu on the side reminded.
"Well, very good. I want to take a closer look at what these Yizhou soldiers are like. Only by knowing ourselves and our enemies can we survive a hundred battles." Liu Ye said slowly.
Just as the two of them were talking, nearly 20,000 Yizhou troops came threateningly, like the two blades of scissors meeting, trying to cut the Chinese army in half and cut it into pieces.
"Encounter the enemy!"
The Liangzhou Army formed a thick formation. If it were normal, the Liangzhou Army would not necessarily stick to the defense and might choose to take the initiative. But it's different now. General Liu Ye is behind him. If the enemy takes advantage of him and sneaks in, it would be bad if the general is in trouble.
The Yizhou army was unscrupulous. They attacked with all their strength to drive out the invaders in front of them from Yizhou.
"Kill the enemy troops and defend Yizhou!"
The Yizhou Army collided with the Liangzhou Army's formation with an indomitable momentum, and it was like an arrow shot into it.
Whoosh whoosh!
Tens of thousands of arrows flew back and forth. The archers of the Yizhou Army and the Liangzhou Army poured out arrows at each other, and the tens of thousands of arrows made a dull sound as they penetrated the flesh.
Poof!
Soldiers from both armies fell to the ground from time to time, just like a wheat field swept by heavy rain and storm. The wheat fell to the ground when the wind blew it, and could never stand up again.
On the way to the charge, many soldiers from both armies fell to the ground before they could reach the enemy. However, after only three shots, the Yizhou Army finally ran into the Liangzhou Army's formation.
"Kill, tear apart Liangzhou's military formation, and capture Liu Ye!"
Leng Bao shouted angrily and stepped forward in person with a spear in hand. Seeing Leng Bao coming forward in person, tens of thousands of Yizhou troops became more morale and followed Leng Bao forward to kill him.
boom!
The Yizhou Army rushed out like a torrent, slamming into the Liangzhou Army's formation.
Liu Ye's pupils shrank for a while, and he saw that the Yizhou Army in front of him looked fierce and ferocious. They waved their weapons without fear and rushed towards the Liangzhou Army's formation. The Liangzhou army has been in the northwest for a long time and often fought against the Qiang and Hu, so they are brave by nature, but these Yizhou soldiers in front of them seem to be even better.
These Yizhou soldiers shuttled through the mountains, fighting with the barbarians in the south and the Qiang people in the north. More importantly, the Sichuan people were very xenophobic and had no good impression of the invading Liangzhou soldiers, so they all worked hard. Want to drive the Liangzhou army out.
Looking at the Yizhou soldiers in front of him who were brave and fearless of death, Liu Ye couldn't help but feel a little distracted. He seemed to think of the Sichuan army that went out to fight in Sichuan more than a thousand years later. They were also brave and fearless of death and caused a lot of casualties to the enemy.
"The Sichuan soldiers are brave and brave. It would be a good thing if you can use them for your own use." Liu Ye said slowly.
"The Sichuan people are anti-foreign, but after the general pacifies Yizhou, he can order the Sichuan people to serve as officials in Guanzhong and the Central Plains prefectures, and order the officials from Guanzhong and Zhongyuan prefectures to serve in Yizhou, and reduce taxes in Yizhou. In the long run, Yizhou soldiers will naturally For the general's use." Jia Xu suggested.
"Very good, but we have to wait until Yizhou is pacified."
Liu Ye stared at the Yizhou Army in front of him. Although he had some insights, he was not moved. He believed that after years of fighting, the Liangzhou Army, which had been forged from mountains of swords and seas of blood, was definitely the strongest army in the world, and even the Yizhou Army could not be their opponent.
As expected by Liu Ye, even though the Yizhou Army launched a fierce attack on the Liangzhou Army and took advantage of the mountain warfare to gain the upper hand for a while, they were still unable to break through the Liangzhou Army's heavy formation. He seemed to be a swordsman with superb swordsmanship, but he was facing a soldier with thick armor. No matter how sharp his swordsmanship was, it was impossible to penetrate the thick armor.
Zhang Ren's sharp eyes were like a hawk staring at Liu Ye under the Chinese army's banner, and he tightened his grip on the long sword in his hand.
If Liu Ye can be captured and killed, this battle will naturally be decided in one battle. However, although the Liangzhou army did not take the initiative to attack, the formation was as solid as a rock and could not be broken through no matter what. Even Zhang Ren could not help but feel a little confused. Angry.
At this moment, between the battlefield where the two armies were fighting, thick horn horns were heard from both the north and the south.
Woohoo!
The horns of the Liangzhou Army came from the north and the south. Large clouds of dust appeared on the battlefield. The galloping cavalry and infantry appeared as a shadow in the distance, gathering towards the Chinese army.
"Encircle and Annihilate the Yizhou Army!"
Liu Ye couldn't help but smile when he heard this and said loudly: "The whole army attacks, don't let the Yizhou army go!"
"The general has an order, don't let the Yizhou army go!"
The Liangzhou Army, which was originally in a defensive position, looked overjoyed when they heard the horn sound of reinforcements. They had long been filled with anger under the fierce attack of the Yizhou Army. After hearing the order to counterattack, they naturally moved forward. Chased him.
Zhang Ren couldn't help but frown when he saw this: "Damn it."
Reinforcements from the Liangzhou Army have arrived. If the struggle continues, not only will Liu Ye be unable to be captured, but he may also be surrounded and annihilated by the enemy. By then, tens of thousands of troops will be burned to the ground.
Thinking of this, Zhang Ren sighed and issued an order: "The whole army retreats, quickly!"
When it's time to break, break it off, otherwise problems will arise.
The Yizhou army was killing fiercely. After hearing Zhang Ren's order, some soldiers were still fighting hard and refused to retreat. They were furious.
