Chapter 207 Bloody Battle in Long County(2/2)
"Roar!"
Dian Wei, wearing heavy armor, shouted violently and urged his horse to rush into the Liangzhou formation. Two heavy iron halberds flew up and down, like two violent black dragons, causing a bloody storm in the Liangzhou formation. Wherever Dian Wei's cavalry passed, the Liangzhou soldiers suddenly split like waves, and no one could stop them for a moment.
Behind Dian Wei, more than a hundred heavily armored iron cavalry followed like shadows, rushing forward, causing the Liangzhou soldiers to bleed, panic, and chaos with the cold sabers and violent collisions. Then, when the entire Liangzhou army began to fall on the brink of collapse, the two thousand Wuhuan wolf cavalry led by Ma Yue finally appeared on the periphery.
This time, it’s no longer painful and irritating harassment.
In the Liangzhou formation.
Huangfu Jian shouted at the top of his lungs, trying to control the army on the verge of collapse, but soon, he found sadly that it was simply a delusion to make the army from several different counties, which were not even familiar with each other, as if instructed by his arm.
Guo Hao, Li Ju, Li Xian and others have long disappeared. Only the generals of the Huangfu family of the sixteen cavalry followed Huangfu Jian with a cold expression. These eighteen cavalry generals have followed Huangfu Song to fight south and north, and have never seen any kind of formation? Even if they are equipped with swords and axes, they will never be distracted.
The matter cannot be done, Huangfu Jian sighed and fled in panic under the protection of the sixteen cavalry generals.
Huangfu Jian was defeated in this battle very unfairly, and he didn't know until the end that his enemy was actually only two thousand cavalry! If Huangfu Jian sent cavalry to restrain Ma Yue's two thousand cavalry at the beginning and then ordered a 10,000 army to step up the construction of the camp, the ending would be completely different.
With the advantage of military strength and the large amount of food, grass and supplies carried by the army, the Liangzhou army only needed to build a simple camp to persevere until the arrival of reinforcements in the Western Regions.
Unfortunately, Huangfu Jian had never really been on the battlefield before this. Li Ju, Li Bei, and Li Xian were only domineering and intrigue. When Ma Yue's four teams of cavalry suddenly appeared, these newcomers on the battlefield made an unforgivable mistake, and even made the 10,000 troops ready for battle due to the harassment of 400 cavalry.
In the tense and desperate watch, ten thousand Liangzhou troops exhausted their energy, lost their courage, and missed their last chances, and the final outcome was inevitable.
Longxi, Lintao.
Fang Yue strode up to the enemy tower, bowed to Jia Xu, who was standing solemnly with his hands behind his back, and said aloud: "Military advisor, our army has cleared the remaining enemies in the city, and Lintao City has been captured."
"Is there a person missing?"
"Don't worry, the military advisor, all four gates were blocked by our cavalry, and even a mouse did not escape from Lintao City."
"Um."
Jia Xu nodded gently and fell into deep thought.
"Military advisor~~" Fang Yue hesitated for a moment, and finally couldn't help asking, "Should we go back to Long County now? Long County is not only a place where our army stations grain, but also a strategic impetus for connecting the 36 Qiangs. Once the fall is over, the consequences will be unimaginable! Although General Xu Huang is brave and good at fighting, he only has 5,000 troops after all, and it will be very difficult to withstand Xu Rong's 30,000 troops."
"Return to Shilong County?" Jia Xu shook his head calmly and said, "No~~ It's not the time yet."
"Hmm?" Fang Yue said in shock, "Why did the military advisor say this?"
"Time!" Jia Xu took a deep breath and answered the question irrelevantly, "We need time, this is a gamble!"
"What?" Fang Yue said in a lost voice, "Gambling!"
"Yes, gambling!"
Jia Xu nodded, but he still didn't say something. This was indeed a big bet. Now, it just depends on whether Xu Rong conquered Long County first or Gao Shun conquered Zuo Fengyi first. Half a month has passed since he first sent a letter to Hetao in a hurry. Gao Shun's troops should have entered Zuo Fengyi's territory.
In three days, Xu Huang only needs to defend Longxian for three days. Zuo Fengyi's eight hundred miles will be sent to Liangzhou in an expedited manner! Xu Rong will be left behind in the fall of Longxi, but Zuo Fengyi's emergency will not be able to sit idly by! Once Liangzhou falls, Guanzhong Chang'an will be Dong Zhuo's only way out, so how can he let it go?
Fang Yue Ning said in a voice: "Military advisor, what should our army do now?"
Jia Xu's frowning eyebrows suddenly stretched out and said loudly: "Leave five hundred elite soldiers to garrison Di Dao, and inform Di Dao's guards. Before the situation in Liangzhou is determined, it is strictly forbidden for any people to enter and exit. Those who violate the orders will be killed! You can put more flags on the top of the city, and then hold the people in the city wearing sharp armor and stand on the top of the city with sharp spears, thinking that they are suspicious of the soldiers."
Fang Yue said: "Abide by the order."
Jia Xu said again: "There is another thousand elite soldiers wearing armors of Dian Zeqiang soldiers to defend the city, and then set up a large camp outside Lintao City, leaving two thousand elite soldiers to guard it. The camp can hold more Lintao people hostage, so that they can also wear armor and hold sharp soldiers, pretending to be suspicious of soldiers, and put on the stance that our army is still besieging Lintao."
Fang Yue looked moved and asked, "Our army still has more than 15,000 troops, where are we going?"
Jia Xu's eyes suddenly lit up. He looked back and stared at Fang Yue, saying word by word: "Destroy Xu Rong first, and then attack Chang'an!"
Longxian.
Under the cover of heavy infantry, thousands of elite soldiers dragged dozens of well walls and finally approached the city wall. The archers guarding the city wall tried their best to shoot, but they could not stop the well wall array from advancing. Xu Huang quickly ordered to stop this ineffective and wasted arrow resistance.
"Drink~~"
Accompanied by a loud howl, the well railing formation slowly squirmed forward suddenly stopped. Then two thousand heavy infantrymen followed quickly crossed the well railing and set up a solid defensive shield wall in front of the formation. At this time, the well railing formation was only thirty steps away from the Longxian wall. As long as you go a little further, the turbulent oil tanks thrown by the defenders could get these well railings.
As long as the turbulent oil tank can be thrown on the well railing, the defenders can burn the well railing with fire attack technique. Unfortunately, Xu Rong was obviously prepared for this, and it was only a little bit short of the distance, making the defenders' fire attack technique difficult to work.
