Chapter 235

A battle triggered by the attack camp did not stop from night to dawn, and more and more troops were invested by both sides.

The Han army was the attacking party. The battle spread to the camp of Shijie Zhao army at night. It was the Han Army pestering the Shijie Zhao army in the field. Other troops rushed to the camp of the fire, forcing the fire-fighting Shijie Zhao army to fight. The battle was carried out in the front of Shijie Zhao army.

"Erect shield!"

The tower shield is one meter high, two meters wide and seventy centimeters wide. The metal shield "clicks" to form the shield wall. In a moment, the arrows fired by Zhao Jun from Shijie have arrived, and the arrows shoot on the shield to make various sounds.

"Strike!"

"Yo Hey! Yo Hey!"

Looking at it, the metal shield wall nearly 100 meters long pushed forward slowly, and Shijie Zhao Jun was ordered to impact. First, they were blocked by arrow rain. When they ran about five meters in front of the shield wall, long guns were suddenly stabbed at the small round holes of each shield. In an instant, the originally smooth shield wall had thorns, and some Shijie Zhao Jun who couldn't step in a moment were stabbed, But such bad luck is rare.

The battle was carried out in the camp of Zhao Jun in Shijie. Behind him was the camp burned last night. It was dark and messy. If this continues, the Han Army has pushed the front forward about 200 meters. If it is destroyed further, it will soon drive the Shijie Zhao army into the mountains.

But looking at the camp in the battle, the Han Army has a clear meaning. It forms a trident formation. Most of the time, it is a solid cooperation between Tower Shield soldiers and long spearmen. If there is a chance, there will be cavalry or knife shield soldiers for short assault.

Deng Heng is really a veteran who has fought for half his life. If he hadn't come to defend, he would have been driven into the mountains by the Han army.

"I didn't expect the Han Army to be so strong!" Although Cui Xuan is a second devil, he also knows the method of battle: "the tactics are simple, but they are very useful. The enemy command also firmly controls the rhythm!"

Deng Heng is not too worried about the war here. Even if the situation is worse, it is nothing more than a mountain war. He was worried about the rest. After all, the Han army was divided, and there were more than 10000 cavalry who didn't know where to go.

Although Taishan county is mostly mountainous, the role of cavalry in mountainous areas must be infinitely reduced, but Taishan county is not all mountainous, and some main roads are basically flat.

More than ten thousand cavalry left the Han army. You don't have to think about what you want to do. It means that Deng Heng's logistics line may be cut off anytime and anywhere. Cutting off grain channels is only one of the roles of cavalry. It can also use short-range mobility to attack enemy reinforcements!

Deng Heng is the commander of the Qingzhou expedition army. He is not only the leader of the first route army. There are many directions to think about. The situation he is facing now is more complex. The multi-channel army is not ready for war. The reinforcements of Yuzhou and Sizhou are still on the way, but there are signs of collapse in the battlefield of Taishan County in Yanzhou.

There was an uproar on the battlefield. Originally, Zhao Jun in Shijie could stand off with the Han army who set up the shield wall, but the Han army launched a short assault again!

For the soldiers of Shijie Zhao army who were on the battlefield, they insisted at the risk of falling arrows. They could not break the shield wall of the Han Army, and it was difficult to deceive them. However, the shield wall of the Han army said that it would crack. Shijie Zhao army looked at the cracked shield wall bravely, where hundreds of armour riding equipment were charging with heavy horseshoes.

"Run!"

It's not a dense formation, nor is it a means to deal with heavy cavalry. If you don't escape, you're waiting to be crushed into meat and mud?

One by one, they didn't even hide the falling arrows. They turned and ran away directly, but how could their two legs compare with their four legs? They were caught up in a moment.

Li Tan likes this kind of war. He drives the enemy's infantry. He doesn't have to work too hard. He can kill an enemy soldier by picking or stabbing with a horse when passing by. He didn't even have to do it. He controlled the reins and hit it with a horse. If he knocked down a robe in the rear, he would naturally trample people into rags with horseshoes.

Short assault, what Xu Zheng has used is pure, but it is a little out of control when used on a large scale.

"Chang Shi, like this, will soon drive the enemy back to the mountain area." Xu Zheng looked very happy: "block them into the mountains, and the next thing will be easy to do."

Ji Chang "ha ha" smiled and said: "during the introduction, persuade to surrender, not to surrender... Set fire to the mountain."

In summer, although there are not as many dead leaves and dry firewood as in autumn, it is really not difficult to set fire to the mountain. Who let such a year be the original ecology. There is never a lack of grass and trees in the mountain. As long as the fire can be lit and the wind is given by God, it is really easy to set fire to the mountain. (imagine the burning mountain that accidentally ignites a fire during the Qingming Festival)

Shijie Zhao Jun's camp outside the mountain area is not small. Deng Heng established this front camp to prevent being blocked in the mountain area. He may have thought about whether the Han army would burn the mountain. The conclusion may be that the probability of the Han army commander daring to burn the mountain will be lower. After all, arson is considered to hurt Tiande, and not everyone dares to do it.

Obviously, others may have concerns, but Ji Chang doesn't care so much. If they were LV Yi, sang Yu and Cai you, they would have many scruples. But for Ji Chang, Liu Yan's great cause is the most important. As for the virtue of heaven, what is it?

God's virtue is not a thing. What did God do when the Hu people mutilated the Chinese and Miao people? Since there is no movement in heaven, we have to go "heaven is healthy, and a gentleman keeps improving himself"!

The Huben army that attacked again retreated again. Their short assault just now did not have the same effect as the previous several times. They were stopped by a large number of horses only after they broke into more than 200 meters.

"Really?" Ji Chang was not surprised by the return. He said: "Deng Heng is a veteran after all. His reaction may be slower, but he has a lot of experience in dealing with it."

Xu Zheng nodded his head: "long history, the enemy also has armour and riding gear. We have repeatedly made so many short raids. Should Deng Heng touch some pulse?"

"Whether we can learn from our tactics is still in the middle of simulation." Ji Chang smiled and said, "just be ready."

In terms of local battlefield, the Han army is currently seizing the initiative, but in terms of the whole war situation, it is unfavorable to the Han army.

In the final analysis, if Deng Heng is defeated in Shijie Zhao state, Shi Hu can gather more troops to attack from other directions. Even if Deng Heng is defeated, someone will lead the army to Taishan county again.

There are few soldiers in the Han Dynasty, and the population in the area can not be compared with that of Zhao in Shijie. The gap in national strength can not be leveled after one or two battles. How to fight Taishan county is very particular.

"Where is the cavalry now?"

"Ai Shan is to the West and Xintai is to the East. It is more than 30 li away from Zhushui."

Li Kuang and Qian Jiantong led the cavalry, and sang Yu offered wine as a military master.

The military division offering wine is not an orthodox official position. It was founded by Cao Cao. The official position of the famous counselor Guo Jia is the military division offering wine. This official position is usually held temporarily, acting as a think tank in wartime, and is cancelled in non wartime.

There are more and more generals in the Han Dynasty, but there are still so few advisers. Then, Liu Yan has begun to deliberately divide the organizational system, that is, official titles, etc., which will deliberately let each promising general lead the troops.

In addition to the troops who take the initiative, some people who think they have the ability but not enough experience will be arranged to serve as the chief or deputy in the defense zones everywhere.

Consciously strengthening training is a mainstream. Not only military generals, but also local herdsman officials need to be trained. For example, those families who had taken refuge in Liu Yan earlier were the first groups that Liu Yan needed to cultivate to fill the gap in non-governmental administrative units.

As for education, there are obviously not enough conditions at present. First, teachers are a big problem, and then almost all resources are inclined to war. Where are the spillover resources invested in education?

"The enemy has been replaced with new troops." Xu Zheng raised his finger and said, "the troops in front have been defeated again and again. Their morale is low and they are no longer suitable for combat. They changed their defense when our attack stopped."

Ji Chang, of course, was watching. He suddenly laughed when he found something: "finally, this moment!"

Xu Zheng asked confusedly, "what do you mean?"

Ji Chang still laughed and then said, "what came up was the armed forces of Jin people and miscellaneous Hu."

Xu Zheng gave a "Oh" and laughed.

"But be careful." Ji Chang said with a smile, "the enemy deliberately made a lot of smoke. It is estimated that they want to learn from us to make short raids."

"Right!" Xu Zheng had no worries: "Deng Heng had five hundred dragon guards in his hand, which was also the time to use them."

Previously, the troops of Shijie Zhao army were mixed with Hu people of five ethnic groups, and there was no source of Jin people. It was very clear that the raising of the Han flag by the Han Army had an impact. The Jin people with complex minds were not suitable for war.

Now, Deng Heng had to send Jin soldiers. They blocked the front camp all morning. While the Han Army steadily pushed forward, they repeatedly launched short-term raids. The casualties of the Zhao army in Shijie were heavy. Because they suffered heavy losses again and again, their morale also fell to a critical point, resulting in the collapse of the first World War.

Shijie Zhao army is moving, and the Han Army has also begun its own changes.

It is a speculation that Zhao Jun will send armor and riding equipment, that is, the Dragon Guard, to Shijie. However, as long as there is some speculation on the battlefield, necessary preparations should be made anyway.

"After the order is issued, the support column shall be butted up at the first time!"

"Spearmen, be ready to put up spears at any time!"

These are still common. There have always been crossbows in the Han Dynasty, but they are rarely used. This time, he attacked the camp of Zhao army in Shijie. He wanted to drive the enemy into the mountain area, organize the shield wall to advance, and played a short assault method. A large number of crossbows following the rear were still in the state of not firing an arrow
