The World of Yellow Sky

A shield car was hit on the edge, and sawdust flew across in an instant, and a large number of broken sawdust turned into sharp blades and flew around.

If ordinary soldiers of the Ming army were concealed behind the shield chariot, they would undoubtedly suffer heavy casualties due to the flying pieces of wood.

But these pieces of wood that collapsed and flew like sharp knives hit the soldiers of the camp behind the shield chariot, leaving only a few shallow marks on their armor.

However, the first casualty eventually appeared on the battlefield.

The stone bullet that hit the edge of the shield car was quickly ejected in the opposite direction with the help of this counter force.

A soldier trapped in the camp who didn't react was hit firmly in the shoulder by the stone bullet. The thick armor on his body could not effectively protect him from such an impact.

A piece of his shoulder collapsed, and the whole part seemed to be sunken into his chest cavity. The strong smell of blood permeated the air in an instant, and he had lost all vitality.

After the first casualty, the second and third casualties also appeared soon.

Almost all the casualties this time were soldiers who pushed the ladder truck.

The attack of the catapult hit the ladder truck, and it was true that the ladder truck could not be fragmented, but soon, they aimed at the soldiers who did not have much protection.

As the catapult approached, the soldiers of the Han army also went completely crazy.

They all knew what would happen to those monsters wearing black armor once they boarded the camp wall along the ladder cart. The fighting spirit was ignited.

The Han army on the camp wall frantically used the crossbows and bows in their hands, trying to stop the progress of the ladder vehicles trapped in the camp. Those bed crossbows that had been silent for a long time also let out their own roars at this time.

The flying arrows were like locusts, and with the help of the catapult throwing stones from before, they suppressed the archers trapped in the camp in an instant.

The distance between the two sides was no more than thirty steps. Above this distance, the accuracy and penetration of the bed crossbow reached the highest value.

The huge spear gun easily penetrated the protection in front of the soldiers pushing the cart.

The solid armor worn on the body enables the soldiers trapped in the camp to rely on the armor to resist the shooting of bows and arrows and crossbows.

But facing the spears fired by the bed crossbow, their heavy armor did not give them much protection. The huge spears with strong kinetic energy not only broke the shields in front of them, but also penetrated them. chest.

The fighting spirit of the Han army finally broke out, which brought huge obstacles to the trapped camp.

However, the counterattack of the Han army did not stop the progress of the fallen camp.

When a soldier pushing a cart fell down, someone immediately filled it up, without any hesitation, without any delay, or without any fear.

They moved forward silently, covered by the thick iron armor, and fell like monsters in the eyes of the Han army.

If it weren't for the occasional voices of those who were trapped in the camp, everyone would regard him as a monster.

The cold iron armor covered their figures, and the black iron mask prevented outsiders from seeing their faces. Their appearance was as terrifying as the evil spirits in the mural.

"Release the arrow! Release the arrow!"

The Marquis of the Han Army above the camp shouted hoarsely, but no matter how hard he tried, everything was in vain.

The aerial ladder car trapped in the camp had already landed on the wall of the Han army camp, and the ladder with its barbs slammed down on the wall, instantly fixing the ladder.

"stop------"

In the next moment, the whistle that represented death suddenly rose into the sky.

There were no shouts of killing, no roars, and not even human voices in the army formation trapped in the camp.

Yes, only the dense and hurried footsteps.

The ear-piercing screeching sound and the heavy footsteps intertwined together, making people feel chills all over their body involuntarily.

In the next moment, countless mournful wailing sounds continued like an accompaniment.

Under the camera, Xu An clearly saw the situation on the other side of the trapped camp.

Those reinforced shield vehicles have achieved far better results than expected, and the toughness of the trapped camp seems to be higher than the previous military exercises.

It only took less than half an hour for the trapped camp to climb up the wall of the village, completely disintegrating the defense of the Han army.

Gao Shun has led the trapped camp into the camp of the Han army, and is cleaning up the remnants.

At this time, the sharp soldiers of the Ming army who were in charge of covering Gao Shun's left and right sides also fought with the Han army who was attacking the camp.

The military equipment of the sharp soldiers of the Ming army is much worse than that of the military soldiers. Naturally, there is no way to compare with the trapped camp. The Han army is still fighting against them relying on the wall. But it wasn't that they were powerless to fight back. They even launched several counter-charges on some battlefields, occupying a slight advantage.

Xu An used the binoculars set up in front of the seat to watch the battlefield in the distance.

The Han army under Liu Xie's command is actually not weak, as can be seen from the fact that they can rely on the wall and have the same equipment as the elite soldiers of the Ming army.

But it's a pity that they met the trap camp.

The money spent on these [-] camps is enough to train [-] soldiers or [-] warriors.

"Order Gao Shun to lead the trapped camp to continue the attack. He has only one goal, and that is to keep advancing towards the camp where Liu Xie is."

"He ordered Zhang Yang to transfer all the catapult convoys and trilogy that besieged Pengcheng away in two quarters of an hour, and instead attack the Southwest Han Army Company Battalion."

"Order Zhang Liao and the cavalry of the state battalion to move forward to the place where the original Pengcheng siege troops were, and guard the Pengcheng defenders."

Xu An issued a new military order briefly and forcefully. Now that the trapped camp has entered a part of the Han army's company battalion, it is time to proceed with the next step.

Xu An's eyes swept over the Han army's company battalion.

Because of the terrain, if you want to attack the camp of the Han army, you need to attack more or less from your back.

The camps of the Han army are connected to each other and to Pengcheng. As long as Liu Xie thinks, he can mobilize the defenders of Pengcheng to assist the Southwest Company Battalion at any time.

Although most of Pengcheng's defenders are country warriors, these country warriors are enough to be able to become combat power when defending the city. With the supervisor team behind them, they have to work hard even if they don't want to.

Sun Jing's arrangement was actually an attempt to exchange the lives of these brave men for the lives of the soldiers of the Ming army.

Even if five, six, or even ten townspeople die, as long as they can be exchanged for one Ming army, Sun Jing will most likely be willing to do so.

Although Sun Jing's military strategy was inferior to Sun Jian's, he obviously knew about the burning of the Han army camp in Qingzhou.

Although the bone-eating north wind is blowing throughout the season, and there is still a lot of snow, it is impossible for the fire attack to be effective.

But he still ordered the soldiers to cut down the trees between the camps in advance, and even cleared some bushes near the camps.

Without the cover of trees and shrubs, the company and camp of the Han army were completely exposed and could be seen at a glance.

The fierce battle on the front line was still going on, and when the attacking Han army sharp soldiers captured a Han army camp, under the leadership of Gao Shun, the trapped camp had already broken through the second Han army company battalion, and was heading towards the third Han army camp. The company battalion of the Han army launched an attack.

Gao Shun ordered the soldiers to push the torsion catapult platform into the occupied camp, and bombarded other Han camps condescendingly with the help of the original mounds built by the Han army.

Torque catapults did not appear many times in the Ming army's foreign wars, so Sun Jing didn't think about this problem, which instead gave Gao Shun a great boost now, and his advancing speed far surpassed Xu An's before expected.

"Order the first soldier battalion to advance, take over the attack of the second sharp soldier battalion in advance, and cooperate with the trapped camp to march towards the central army of the Han army."

"The second sharp soldier battalion stays at the stronghold and supports the two wings."

Xu An stared at the Han army company battalion in the distance, and after giving two orders, he stood up, walked down from the watchtower, and came directly to the first-floor platform where the officers of the staff department were.

On the first platform, a group of officers of the staff department were eagerly discussing against the map. Around the map, several staff officers were constantly calculating with figures written in charcoal.

Seeing Xu An's arrival, all the military staff members saluted.

Xu An didn't return the gift, now is the critical time, not the time to care about empty courtesy.

"According to the current attack speed of the trapped camp, Jiulishan's plan must be advanced."

"We also think so, and we are about to send someone to report to you, Daojun, but you have already come down first..."

A military staff officer bowed his head slightly and said respectfully.

"I just ordered the [-]st Battalion of Soldiers to take over the attack of the [-]nd Battalion of Sharp Soldiers."

Xu An's eyes fell on the map, the mountainous area in the north of Pengcheng - Jiuli Mountain.

"How is Jiulishan now?"

"Half a quarter of an hour ago, there were three lines of defense outside the camp of the Han army at the foot of Jiuli Mountain. The battle there started before ours. Our army has broken through the first and second lines of defense of the Han army, and is attacking the third line of defense. "

"The Han army is still in a daze until now, completely unaware of our army's secret mobilization..."

Chapter 886 A Pingchuan

Outside Pengcheng, drums were beating like thunder, and horns were beating continuously.

Xu An's arrangement was beyond everyone's expectations. The Ming army who had just arrived at the battlefield did not rest and directly attacked the Han army's camp.

And there was no temptation, and the trapped camp was sent as the vanguard to attack at the beginning.

It took less than half an hour for the trapped camp to attack, and they had already destroyed a small village and a large village one after another.

The Ruishi Battalion of the Ming Army captured the other two small villages respectively.

The troops of the Ming army who had originally attacked Pengcheng also turned to attack the northern camps shortly after, breaking down one of the small villages.

Within an hour of the Ming army's attack, the four camps fell to the enemy, and even the front line was defeated.

There are 27 camps in the Southwest Han Army Camp, with more than [-] soldiers.

There are thousands of soldiers in Xiaozhai, and more than 3000 soldiers in Dazhai.

There are nine Dazhais and eighteen Xiaozhais, and each Dazhai corresponds to two Xiaozhais, which are connected to each other.

Not only can they transfer materials and troops to each other, but they can also serve as mutual support.

If the enemy troops drive straight in and advance all the way, they will be flanked by other camps after they have penetrated a certain distance.

Looking from top to bottom, the company camps of the Han army on the hills in the southwest of Pengcheng are interlocking and connected, which is actually like a huge city.

Baimeng Book

It's just that the people living in the city are not ordinary people, but soldiers and generals. The Southwest Company is actually a military city composed of 27 camps.

Liu Xie's camp was at the center of the rear of the front line, and his camp had more than 3000 soldiers as guards, all of whom were elite soldiers.

These [-] elite soldiers are both guards and reserves.

If the battle ahead is tight, these soldiers will also fill the battlefield.

Liu Xie stood on the high place of the watchtower with his sword in his hand. Although he tried his best to hide his expression, there was still worry in his eyes from time to time.

Although he had already handed over the command of the entire army to Sun Jing, seeing the unfavorable situation on the front line still made him feel nervous for a while. He even wanted to speak several times and ordered the army to assist the front camp .

Liu Xie closed his eyes, blocking his thoughts.

He remembered what Sun Jing had said to him before.

"Xu An's army is unpredictable, unknowable like shadows, moving like thunder, and strange tricks come out frequently, which is often impossible to guard against."

"So this time, we must not stick to Pengcheng, we must go out of the city to meet the enemy!"

Counting Xu An's past in detail, it is indeed the case, many times he has accomplished all his achievements in one battle.

However, in many cases, although they won by odd tactics, in the end, it was because the hard power of the Ming army was strong enough to win with an upright battle.

This is true for the capture of Gaopingchuan in Liangzhou, the battle of Huayin in the capture of Guanzhong, and the offensive and defensive battle in Chengdu.

Xu An is a cautious person, accustomed to planning for a rainy day, making decisions before acting on everything.

With the help of the Eagle Wolf Guards, they not only know themselves, but also know the enemy, so they won all battles without danger.

The Ming army was good at fighting, made great achievements, and became famous all over the world.

From the very beginning, Liu Xie knew very well that the possibility of holding back the Ming army led by Xu An was only [-]%.

Although Sun Jing said it was [-]%, Liu Xie couldn't see any confidence in Sun Jing's eyes.

However, at this time, he could only trust Sun Jing and put all the power in Sun Jing's hands.

To put it ridiculously, except for Sun Jing and Yuan Shu, there is no one in the entire Han court who has the ability to lead an army and stand alone.

Yuan Shu is now restricted in Yanzhou and cannot move, so he can only rely on Sun Jing.

The successive defeats and the withering of talents not only made it difficult to find the leading generals, but also difficult to find the good fighters. They were all lost between the Fanyang and Qingxu battles.

Although Liu Xie had learned some military strategies from Huang Fusong and Sun Jian, he knew that based on his military insights, he might not be as good as the ordinary Sima and Captain in the army.

He has no experience of leading troops in battle, and all his theories are just ideas on paper.

And the enemy to face is still the No.1 military strategist in the world today.

You must know that the title of No. 1 military strategist is not Xu An's self-proclaimed title, but the common recognition of soldiers all over the world. No one thinks that Xu An is not worthy of this title.

The last one who thought he was superior in military strategy was Zhao Kuo. On paper, he killed 40 Zhao troops in World War I.

Not only did Zhao Kuo fail to become famous in the world, but he created Bai Qi's prestige. Zhao Kuo was also recorded in the annals of history and was ridiculed by everyone.

Liu Xie doesn't want to be the next Zhao Kuo, unlike being nailed to the pillar of shame in history.

The scope of Pengcheng's battle is too far-reaching and must not be lost.
