Dragon map of the Three Kingdoms

Chapter 1442

Yuan Shao suddenly understood that the Ming army had already made up their minds to concentrate their forces to fight him to the death. Starting from the raid on Wangyue Granary, this series of performances that he could not understand were all for this moment.

"Good courage!"

The veins on Yuan Shao's forehead were uneven, and his eyes were like burning flames, bloodshot and crimson: "They put all their eggs in one basket, do they really think they can defeat Gu!"

He is not stupid either.

At this time, if he can't wake up, he is no longer a prince in charge of Hebei alone.

Now in the camp, it's actually not that bad.

At least he still has [-] main players.

Even if the Ming army smashed all the soldiers and horses in Mengjinkou, it would have at most [-] to [-] troops.

For the sake of stability, as long as you don't attack, stabilize the army formation, and resist for two hours, which is probably until dawn, then the surrounding Yuan Jun will encircle you.

At that time, the offensive and defensive positions were immediately reversed.

"Pass my military order to sit in the camp alone, and all the generals will stabilize the camp for me, and then light the beacon tower and order all the soldiers to come for reinforcements immediately!"

Yuan Shao was furious, and at this time, his fighting spirit became ignited. Since the Ming army wanted to bet so hard, he took the opportunity to kill them all.

"This time, I will let them suffer a crushing defeat!"

Yuan Shao said harshly.

"quick!"

"It's moving!"

"defense!"

"Array!"

"Set up the fence!"

"Reinforce the front battalion first!"

The soldiers of the Zhou army's middle army moved quickly. There were [-] troops. Although there were not too fierce generals in charge, there were more than ten generals at the captain level, full of action.

"Can Wen Chou be withdrawn?" Yuan Shao was still a little worried after calming down the army. The Ming army is the strongest in the world. He wants to fight against the Ming army with equal strength. How long he can hold it back is only two hours, but it makes him very worried about whether he can hold it.

"The Ming army divided up the troops and got him in. It is dozens of miles away from us. Marching in the dark, even if we rush back, it will take two hours!"

Tian Fengdao: "The Ming army first used the Zhaoming First Army as a bait, and compared me, I bet the main force on the western front to encircle and suppress them, and then pulled out the Zhaoming Second Army, also to trap our main force. After that, even General Wen Chou sent troops, which led to our situation, after all, we were too impulsive!"

What he said made Yuan Shao blush a little.

He did get a little irritable.

So even Wen Chou, who was at the bottom of the box, asked him to lead the army to reinforce. If Wen Chou and the [-] elite main force were still there, then his camp would not be said to be as stable as Mount Tai, but it was not something the Ming army could easily break through.

"At this point, the only option is to defend and fight!"

Tian Feng cupped his hands and said: "Your Majesty, in times of crisis, it is the time when you need your Majesty to inspire the army, and your Majesty must go to the battlefield in person!"

How could he not know that it is so dangerous, but the brave wins when they meet on a narrow road.

The situation has come to this point.

If Yuan Shao still behaved like a tortoise, then in this battle, his morale would be lost for a quarter first, and if he continued to fight, he could only be killed by the Ming army with his bottom up.

"Really?"

Yuan Shao is a man who cherishes his life.

He can go to the battlefield in person, but it is best to fight against the wind when he is fighting against the wind, and run to the battlefield, purely as a target.

"It must be so!"

Tian Feng insisted: "The difference in combat effectiveness between our army and the Ming army is not small. If morale is not enough, it is not a big deal at all. Let alone two hours, even one hour will not last!"

Yuan Shao took a deep breath, stood up slowly, put on the cloak, put the sword on his waist, and his eyes also showed determination: "Gu is also a person who fights on the battlefield, how can he be greedy for life and afraid of death, since The Ming army is going to fight, let's fight to the death with the Ming army today!"

........................

"Kill in!"

"Crush their first layer of defense, hurry up, don't give them a chance!"

"Their reinforcements are coming up, chisel them through!"

In Zhang Liao's hand was Fang Tian's painted halberd, the same weapon as Lu Bu's, but it was smaller. His strength did not have Lu Bu's innate divine power.

Although not as good as Lu Bu, he is also considered a super fierce general. He personally charged into the battle and killed four times with weapons in his hands. The feeling of enthusiasm seemed to return to the past on the grassland, fighting side by side with Lu Bu Gaoshun and the others.

"General, more and more reinforcements are coming!" A personal guard reminded.

"in spite of!"

Zhang Liao said in a cold voice: "Continue to charge inside, we must reopen their formation and defeat their soldiers and horses!"

"promise!"

The battalion commanders, who are also the leaders of the various tribes of the Western Qiang, certainly would not have worked so hard before, but now, they broke out on the battlefield.

The Ming Dynasty reinforced the land of the West Sea, especially the countless grains in Qiangzhou, which helped them survive a severe winter, even if it was for this, they dared to buy and sell.

In fact, the so-called nomad capital, they do not have a strong concept of Han nomads, they care more about who can let them eat and explode.

Ming country can, so what if they flock to Ming country.

……

In this dark night, on the plain near Mang Mountain, there was a bloody battle, and the movement became louder and louder. It was impossible to hide it, and it spread quickly.

"Center camp!"

Wen Chou and Pang De were exhausted from hunting for hide and seek for several hours, when they suddenly saw the beacon tower in the middle camp lit up, they felt a sudden shock.

A little confused, he quickly ordered: "Come, come!"

"General!"

"Call the main force immediately and reinforce the middle battalion!"

"Yes!"

At this time, Ju Yi also saw the flames of the middle camp, which was a signal for help. The middle camp was where Yuan Shao was, and there should be no fighting, so why did he suddenly call for help.

Is it...

Ju Yi shuddered a little.

But this is none of his business. What he is thinking about now is whether he should go to rescue. Rescue is his duty. If he does not rescue, he can have a reason.

Yuan Shaoruo died...

There was a hint of confusion in his eyes.

Over the years, although he has made countless achievements, Yuan Shao's fear of him has become more and more serious. He saw and understood that Yuan Shao might not be able to tolerate himself anymore.

Thoughts are fleeting.

Ju Yi still calmed down: "Come here, beat the drums and gather the troops, gather the main force, and follow me to the rescue of the Chinese army!"

At this time, Yuan Shao may not die in battle. If Yuan Shao doesn't die, he will leave a handle if he doesn't send troops. He doesn't want to be the Marquis of Huaiyin, after all, the Marquis of Huaiyin died too badly.

…………

On the Western Front.

Zhou Jun's Yan Xing main force and Zhang Yun's main force were besieging the Ming Army's Zhaoming First Army on the mountainside. They fought several battles, but were repelled by Zhou Jun.

At this time, Yan Xing and Zhang Yun had no intention of retreating and resting. They gathered together again to discuss a way to successfully break through the halfway up the mountain.

But in the middle of the night, there was no result.

The Ming army was too tenacious.

Even fighting with trapped animals has sharp fangs. They used up a lot of physical strength in one fell swoop. Facing the Ming army waiting for work on the hillside, it was too familiar.

If he continued to attack like this, he might be able to defeat them and wipe them out, but with the tens of thousands of main force under his command, there might not be much left.

"To the west, the Yan army in Youzhou, is there any sign of mobilization?"

Yan Xing paced back and forth, he really didn't dare to let the Ming army be forced into this situation, and he could still turn the tables. His own boss was at a disadvantage, if he could pull the Yan army in, he would be able to clean them up.

"no!"

Zhang He shook his head: "Your Majesty has already sent envoys to communicate, and has given them a death order. If you don't send troops tomorrow morning, you will directly attack the Sunset Pavilion!"

"The Yan army should send troops?"

"Sending troops may be under threat and lure, and they will be sent, but they will help us very little, so that's not sure!"

Zhang He shook his head: "It's better to rely on others than ourselves. Let's think about how we can break into the camp. As long as we break through their defense line, we can defeat them. Once we defeat them, we can rely on our powerful troops to attack them with three or five times." Use individual formations to slowly encircle and suppress them!"

"It's really not easy!"

Yan Xing's arm was wrapped in white gauze. This injury was caused by Huang Shao's arrow when the Ming army fought back. The Ming army's tenacious fighting spirit caught him off guard.

Suddenly, Zhang Yun stood up, his eyes widened, and he stared straight ahead. There was a direction in front of him, and a cluster of flames shot straight into the sky.

This is the smoke from the Beacon Tower.

And it's not just a wolf smoke, it's a wolf smoke calling for help.

"Central Army!"

Zhang He's pupils changed color: "Not good, something may have happened to our Chinese army, mine went back to rescue!"

As a direct descendant, Zhang Yun couldn't see Yuan Shao suffer.

"You want to withdraw?"

Yan Xing couldn't believe it.

"I will leave some of my troops behind. When there is nothing to do with the king, I will lead the army back immediately!" Zhang Yun said: "The fireworks are the beacon towers in the middle camp. They are used to call for help. There must be a surprise attack by soldiers and horses. Our main camp!"

With that said, he left in a hurry, took his soldiers and horses, and rushed back to the middle camp.

Yan Xing wants to cry but has no tears.

Why is it so difficult to earn some military exploits? With the soldiers he knows how to fight, it is easy to make peace if he wants to eat up the Ming army in front of him.

....................................

The battle became more and more fierce on the battlefield, the shouts of killing were deafening, and the sound of fighting with weapons continued to echo, and the black field shone like daylight.

Constant life is dying.

The blood seems to have rendered the starry sky a bewitching red.

The Ming army is attacking.

The Zhou army was shrinking the line of defense step by step, intending to isolate the Ming army from the front line.

And in the northeast direction.

A soldier and horse dormant in the dark night gradually revealed its small head.

"General Zhonglang, General Zhang Liao failed to break through the front battalion!"

The scout came up to suppress the sound of footsteps, and reported.

The leading general is a young man with sharp-edged faces and a touch of vicissitudes and majesty. His cold eyes are shining, staring ahead.

After a while, he took out the pocket watch in his pocket, opened it, and looked at it.

I was a little anxious.

Zhang Wenyuan failed to break through the line of defense, which made it a little difficult for him, but it was already too late, they only had two hours, and before dawn, victory or defeat could be determined.

Either break up the battalion, or they can only escape from the battlefield in despair.

There is no third option.

"Pass our military order, each battalion is ready, three drums beating together, charge directly, needless to say, each battalion can freely form formation, there is only one purpose, break the battalion and enter!"

Many of Min Wu's generals are from the Western Qiang, but he speaks Chinese, very pure Chinese.

But his generals can understand.

Because the schools in the Xihai area have also begun to be built, and they all learn Chinese, and there is a Han school in Jishi Mountain. Many generals who led troops to fight were ordered by Min Wu to learn. They are not very proficient. It's a bit of a mouthful to say, but I can usually understand it.

This is also a sign that the Xiqiang tribe surrendered to the Ming Dynasty.

"Yes!"

All the school lieutenants tightly held the weapons in their hands.

When nesting in the West Sea, they didn't know, only knew that the nest was horizontal, and there was no formation in war, but since they surrendered to the Ming Dynasty and trained the army formation, they felt that the army formation was strong, and after entering the Central Plains, they became more powerful. I feel that the West Sea is too small.

In the past, they complained to the new leader Min Wu somewhat, but after seeing the strength of the Central Plains, they had to admire Min Wu for being able to rely on the Ming Kingdom at this time.

"General Zhonglang, it's less than an hour before dawn, and there are [-] main Zhou troops in the city who are leaving the city for reinforcements. It probably won't take an hour to enter the middle camp!"

Another scout came to report.

"Don't wait!"

Min Wu knew that he couldn't wait for the best opportunity, at this time, he had no choice but to attack, even if it was a hard bone, he would gnaw it off.

As the king of the Qiang people and the leader of Xiqiang, his responsibility is to let Xiqiang get out of the barren West Sea and move towards the prosperous Central Plains, and this just requires more military exploits.

Illuminating the Third Army requires great military exploits.

So even if it is a hard bone, it must be gnawed down, which is meritorious service.

"Kill in!"

Min Wu got on his horse, flicked his whip, and like a tiger descending a mountain, he charged forward and charged into the main camp of the Zhou army, which was getting closer and closer to the front.

"Dong Dong Dong!!!!"

Three war drums.

This is the signal to attack.

"kill!"

"Children of Xiqiang, the time has come to make contributions!"

"Hahahaha, Central Plains people, die!"

The Shenlang Battalion was the vanguard, and the rest of the battalions set up a charge formation, and charged on the left and right wings. When charging, they still shouted, their voices were deafening.

This is the wildness of the Qiang soldiers. When they charge, they are willing to combine their heroism and fighting spirit. The wilder they are, the braver they are.

"Boom boom boom!!!!!!"

The front battalion of the Zhou army was still fighting, and a sudden force appeared from the side battalion in the northeast, and broke through the defense of the outer line in one breath, shocking the entire main camp of the Zhou army.

"Where did this come from?"

Yuan Shao's eyes widened.

It was about to be blocked.

but……

"It was strange just now. The main force of the Ming army is more than that. Fortunately, I kept an eye on it!" Tian Feng let out a turbid breath. Although it was an accident, he also counted the accident. Be extra cautious.

"Array!"

Just when Min Wu was about to break the formation, a force of troops came out from the tents in the north where they usually stored food, forming a line of defense and blocking the front.

"Yuan Hao!"

Yuan Shao's eyes lit up, and he quickly looked at Tian Feng beside him.

"Just in case, I divided up my troops just now, and hid part of the main force in the granary, the most inconspicuous place. Anyone who wants to make a surprise attack will be stopped!"

Tian Feng said.

"You are still thoughtful!"

"But carefulness is useless!"

Tian Feng shook his head: "As soon as we lose the game, we have already lost. We can only block it a little, but it won't last for a long time. We can't hold back the arrival of reinforcements, let's break through!"

"why?"

Yuan Shao frowned. Although the Ming army suddenly came out with a main force, the situation was not so bad.

"Your Majesty!"

Tian Feng sighed: "The combat power of the Ming army is above our estimates. Whether it is weapons, personal combat literacy, or battle formation proficiency, it surpasses us in all aspects. The same military force has lost the advantage of the right time and place. We can't hold them for an hour and block the front battalion. In our big camp, we have basically tried our best. Now this force is not inferior to the Ming army in the front camp. Even if it can be blocked, it can only be blocked for a while at most. The opportunity to react cannot be blocked for a long time!"

"Break out immediately!" Tian Feng is a decisive person: "Your Majesty leads the front soldiers to the west and joins the main force of our army, Wen Chou and Ju Yi, and I will stop the rear!"

He has an air of rustling wind, cold water, and the momentum of a strong man who will never return once he is gone.

It's not that he wants to, but at this point, he has to replace Yuan Shao, sit in the central army, and stabilize the morale of the army, so that he can buy more time.

If they lose this battle, they still have a chance. At worst, they will return to Hebei, but if Yuan Shao is killed, Hebei will be completely defeated. None of Yuan Tan, Yuan Xi, and Yuan Shang can hold on to Hebei.
