Great Han Empire

Chapter 18 Rising Sun
The iron wolf roared: "Full speed." The sound of the horn was louder than the sound, stirring in the open sky.The 3000 troops suddenly shot obliquely from the back of Gongsunhu's troops, with ten people as a team, and the killing sound shook the sky, and they rushed towards the left flank of the Changlu tribe's army.

Immediately, the enemy general ordered to blow the horn to meet the enemy, and formed a fan-shaped concave formation to launch a flood-like charge to meet the iron wolf army.

There were more than 400 Gongsun Hu left, and they were immediately outflanked from both wings by a thousand enemy troops rushing up from behind.The Chinese army of the Changlu Tribe suffered heavy casualties, and more than 200 people retreated with Ke Zui.With the rapid movement of the enemy and the enemy, Gongsun Hu's assault front army has been firmly stuck in the heart of the Changlu tribe's army like a nail.

Duan Song is still two hundred steps away from Gongsun Hu.

The iron wolf's troops made sudden contact with the left wing of the Changlu tribe.The piercing sound of spears entering the body, the whistling sound of long arrows tearing through the air, the crisp collision sound of swords clashing, the bone-crushing sound of blades chopping on flesh, the heart-piercing screams, and the dull sound of fierce collision of war horses , the roar of the soldiers, all kinds of voices intertwined, and there was a huge roar.The assault begins.

Iron Wolf's army was like a wooden stake, hammered into the enemy's left flank one by one.The enemy's fan-shaped formation should not be too large, for fear of affecting the space in the central battlefield.But once it can't complete the quick encirclement of the huge queue of the Iron Wolf troops, it will be dragged down by its own formation.The current battlefield situation is very unfavorable to the left wing.

Ke Zui's earliest plan was to deploy defensively. He judged that Murong Feng would attack the central army with the main force, disrupt the command system of the army, and then spread to the two wings, so that the center would blossom and explode in an all-round way.Therefore, as a rule, he focused on one wing, with the central army blocking, the heavy wing outflanking, and the auxiliary wing supporting.With outflanking as the center of battle, the best is a fan-shaped array.But Iron Wolf is much more cunning.His strategic intention is only to hold back the enemy's main force, disrupt the battlefield, and disrupt the enemy's command, rather than aiming at annihilation.

The commanders of the two armies were very different in strategy, causing confusion on the defensive side.

The Iron Wolf's [-] troops lined up in a long and thick shock formation, turning the outflanking operation of the [-] troops on the enemy's left wing into an inexplicable retrograde pursuit.The soldiers who tried to outflank the iron wolf army's iron cavalry were completely dragged away by the endless long queue.In order to gain speed, the soldiers in front did not make contact with each other, but just ran wildly with their heads down, wholeheartedly trying to get around the enemy's back.In order to protect the increasingly thin queue, the soldiers behind desperately replenished from behind.As a result, a strange scene formed on the battlefield: three long dragons were struggling to swim on the left-wing battlefield.

The iron wolf's troops were in the middle, thick and long, and they were rushing forward desperately.The left and right sides of the Iron Wolf army were the main left wing of the Changlu Tribe army. They were divided into two halves by the Iron Wolf.But the outflanking team is far less long than the rushing team.Because it is necessary to leave heavy troops to prevent the enemy from breaking through the formation.Once the formation is breached, outflanking is out of the question. If there are many enemy troops, it may be caused to be surrounded by anti-encirclement.This is the situation now.

Duan Song's troops were still a hundred steps away from Gongsun Hu.The huge flaming red flag in the team moved with the team at high speed, fluttering in the wind.The speed of the team has reached the limit.All the cavalry are lying on their horses to reduce the resistance that affects their running speed.

The timely replenishment of a thousand fresh troops, although affecting the situation on the left-wing battlefield, quickly stabilized the central army.Especially for Gongsun Hu, it is fatal.All around are densely packed enemies.

Gongsun Hu struggled to cut down an enemy, turned his head and roared: "Jie formation, formation..." After cutting down another enemy, he raised his head and roared again: "Jie... formation..."

At this moment, Gongsun Hu is like a ferocious tiger trapped in a cage, more like an enraged male lion.His bravery and fearlessness made many enemy soldiers afraid to surround him too closely, lest they be hunted and killed.The array of geese behind Gongsun Hu has disappeared, and the soldiers are fighting in groups of several times the number of enemies.Gongsun Hu's roar woke up the horn soldiers closest to him. Under the cover of three comrades in arms, he blew the horn with all his strength, "Woo..."

The enemy soldiers immediately understood their intentions. Once these people were gathered together, they would have to pay more casualties.So everyone rushed forward regardless of life and death, knives, guns, spears, axes, and long arrows greeted them together.The horn soldier was hit by three arrows in a row, still holding the horse's head tightly and blew the last sound, and then was shot through the throat by an arrow. The long arrow pierced through the neck and nailed the horse's head hard, and the horse and man fell to the ground.

The soldiers then fought hard to kill the enemies around them, and together with Gongsun Hu who came back to meet him, they immediately formed a barrel-shaped circular formation.There are still more than 200 troops left.The meaning of this kind of powerful charging team on the battlefield is to fight with their lives to win greater victories or more chances of survival for their own army.In all battles, their death rate is the highest, and even the entire army is wiped out.

But that's the glory.Man must die after all, to die for glory, and to die well.Xianbei people advocate bravery, and this is deeply rooted in their thinking.

The right wing of the Changlu tribe's army has already spread out, and they are closely attached to the flank of the central army, and from time to time they use the long arrows in their hands to surprise Gongsun Hu's assault front army.

Ke Zui frowned, and said loudly to the messenger, "Tell the leader of the right-wing army that the whole army should be divided into front and rear. Once the enemy's rear army enters the central army's hinterland, immediately start outflanking from the front and back of the central army. Be sure to encircle the enemy's rear army."

Seeing that the situation on the battlefield was not very good, Que Ju had a very nervous expression on his face.

"See, Iron Wolf, Gongsun Hu, Duan Song, there is no Murong Feng. The commander's final blow, we will all be wiped out." Feng Li pointed at the battlefield, talking and laughing happily.

Que Ju looked at him in disgust, "Do you like death that much?"

"Yes. I must die here, on this battlefield." Feng Li opened his hands almost crazily, and shouted towards the bloody battlefield.

Duan Song is fifty steps away from Gongsun Hu.

Duan Song's face was always smiling, but now he doesn't smile anymore.After he and his subordinates withstood two rounds of arrow rain, which was not very dense, they finally saw Gongsun Hu's figure.He immediately sat up straight from his horse, and amidst the sound of thunderous hoofbeats, he shouted loudly: "Separate...row..."

The troops originally consisted of 20 people in a row, but after hearing the sound of the charging horn, they suddenly changed their formation to form a row of ten people, and the soldiers were divided into two groups, just like a tree stump being split by an arrow, one was divided into two, clean and concise, fast.

Duan Song raised his saber aloft, waved it in the air, and shouted: "Huho... Huho..." A thousand soldiers echoed, and the air was full of bright swords, "Huho... Huho..."

Neither of the two troops had spears, and immediately the enemy soldiers met each other.The saber in Duan Song's hand fluttered like cutting vegetables, and every time he swung it, blood flowed.Due to the impact speed of Duan Song's troops was too fast, the entire enemy army facing the enemy was immediately defeated, just like a person who was hit by a heavy punch in the chest and abdomen, and immediately bent over in pain.The Changlu tribe's army was hit, and they bowed in pain.The two men and horses entered the enemy's army like two whirlwinds, and then fought bravely all the way forward.

The Changlu tribe's right wing was divided into upper and lower armies, and began to carefully outflank it from front to back.

Iron Wolf looked at the hill and saw many people on the hill pointing at the battlefield.Although he couldn't see the specific person, he knew that there must be Queju there.There was a sudden loud cheer from the soldiers in front.They finally broke through the blocking of the enemy on the left.

The iron wolf took the lead and rushed out of the crowd, looking back to the two sides, the enemy was like a group of gamblers who lost their eyes, or like a group of wolves who had been robbed of their prey, they rushed forward aggressively, trying to fill the gap again.The iron wolf yelled: "Split and encircle, divide and encircle. Brothers, kill." The sound of the horn immediately resounded through the battlefield.

The dragon in the middle began to change.With the sound of horns, two small dragons rushed out from the center of the big dragon in opposite directions, cutting off the two left and right thin dragons that were walking in the opposite direction.At the same time, two small dragons running in the opposite direction rushed out from the head and tail of the giant dragon.After the two small dragons in the middle cut off the thin dragons on the left and right, they split into two again and joined the small dragons rushing out from the head and tail respectively.The two thin dragons on the left and right were cut into four immediately.Moreover, it is possible to be surrounded immediately.

"Master Feng, do you want to wait until my army is completely wiped out before you send troops to rescue?" Que Ju saw that his left-wing army was being divided and surrounded, and his heart ached. He yelled at Feng Li who was sitting on the ground. road.

"The iron cavalry tactics of the Eagle Tribe is worthy of being the best in Xianbei. It's ridiculous that Ke thinks he is great and makes the iron wolf his slave. After today's battle, Ke is the biggest joke in the world. He was defeated by his slave on the battlefield It's gone." Feng Lie laughed loudly while talking.

Que Ju's face became distorted with anger, he drew out his saber and shouted, "Feng Lie, are you going to send troops?"

Feng Lie glanced at him casually, and said sympathetically, "So you're a layman in warfare. Don't worry, the two armies are now evenly matched, and the winner will probably have to wait an hour later."

"Huh." He suddenly seemed to have discovered something, and said to Que Ju, "The iron wolf has completed the siege, why is this kid still acting like a madman, attacking wildly regardless of life and death. Could it be that there is really no reinforcements?"

"Your troops already have the upper hand in the middle battlefield." Feng Li pointed at the battlefield and said to Que Ju, "Gongsun Hu's more than 200 people are in the center, and your troops in the middle are surrounding him. Duan Song from the Linghu Tribe surrounded him from the outside. Your troops in the middle. Your troops were hit too hard by him and suffered a lot of losses. Fortunately, Ke Mo did not order the right-wing troops to stop in time, otherwise the situation would not be as good as it is now. Your right-wing troops surrounded Duan Song's department Solving this kind of encirclement will consume the most troops. You immediately order the troops on the right to eliminate Duan Song at any cost. Otherwise, once Duan Song breaks through the inner encirclement and joins Gongsun Hu, the advantage will no longer exist."

Que Ju didn't even drag him, "If you don't send troops again, I will order you to retreat. I quit and go back to the Changlu Department."

Feng Lie laughed, "Since you are looking for death, what am I afraid of? If you order to retreat, I will wipe out all 5000 troops of your Changlu tribe today. Let's have an internal strife first, and then give all the advantages to the commander-in-chief .”

Que Ju cried out in despair: "Feng Lie, you are crazy."
