Chapter 176 Zhao Yun's First Battle
Chapter 176 Zhao Yun's First Battle
Write to the south of the valley, in the endless wilderness.
Tens of thousands of Qiang soldiers set up their camps, and the rugs stretched for dozens of miles, which was a magnificent sight.
The leaders of Shaodang Qiang Dian Ling, Shen Lang Qiang Hao Shuai Wudang, Ge Lin Qiang Hao Shuai Litu and other leaders boarded the high ground, looking at the Xiliang army camp at the mountain pass from a distance.On the steep cliff, there is a Huokou, and there is a tens of feet wide road across the vertically descending mountain wall, leading directly to the plain on the north bank of Huangshui River, which is really easy to defend and difficult to attack.
Between the steep mountain walls, densely packed tents have long been set up.
Behind the Xiliang barracks, flags covered the sky, making it difficult to see the reality.
"Xiao Luo Zheng came so fast!"
Shaodang Dahao Dian Ling took a few glances, and couldn't help but marvel, "This place is only a hundred miles away from the West Sea, and no less than four hundred miles away from Yunwu, the prefecture of Jincheng County, but Luo Zheng's army arrived before our army. Damn, why is that?"
Shen Lang Qiang, handsome and handsome, said: "Does it need to be said, I will wait for the army to gather, and I will definitely not be able to hide from the spies of the Xiliang Army. If we wait until we hit Yunwu, Luo Zheng will react, and he will be wiped out by General Ma Teng long ago , can you still jump until now?"
The handsome brother from the neighboring department suddenly said: "Who among you knows what is written on the marching flags of the Han army?"
A Qiang man next to him who knew Chinese characters hurriedly said, "Marshal, there is a word 'Zhao' on the general flag."
Dian Ling wondered: "How could it be the word 'Zhao'? Didn't Luo Zheng'er personally lead the troops here?"
Everyone is looking at me, a little confused.
Wudang said: "It would be better if Luo Zheng didn't come, that guy is not easy to provoke, even General Ma Teng was defeated, and he killed people more ferociously than the wolf on the Qiang Plain, the Qiang who moved into the Han territory I don’t know how many people have been killed. If it weren’t for the severe drought in autumn, the harvest of autumn grains, and the people’s hunger, I would not want to provoke that butcher.”
Dian Ling scolded: "Wudang, you bastard, don't talk nonsense, who are we Qiang people afraid of?"
Wudang laughed twice, but didn't speak.
Li Tu said in a deep voice: "These Han troops are really cunning. They set up camp on the south bank of the Huangshui River to block the mountain pass. We have no choice but to attack by force. But the sides of the mountain pass are narrow, and our army cannot attack in a large scale. .”
Dian Ling said: "What is this? We have a large number of troops. We can divide our troops to cross the Huangshui River from the two rivers and surround the rear of the Han army."
Wu Dang said: "You think the Han army is a fool. I have sent people to check just now. The Han army has built many beacon towers on the hills of the valley. As long as our army divides up and crosses the river, it will definitely be discovered. And write The north bank of the Huangshui River at both ends of the valley is full of dense forests, and there are cavalry moving around. If we divide our troops to cross the river, we will be intercepted by the Han army."
Dian Ling said: "Nonsense, I heard that after Luo Zheng'er defeated Lu Bu, he abolished a large number of troops under his command. In addition to the [-] troops guarding Yuzhong, Luo Zheng'er can now mobilize less than [-] troops under his command. How can it be so? Lots of troops."
Wu Dang and Li Tu suddenly got refreshed and asked together: "Is this really true?"
Dian Ling laughed and said, "Of course it's true. General Ma Teng told me this."
Wu Dang and Li Tu looked at each other, Wu Dang said: "That's good."
Dian Ling said: "It should not be too late, I am here to attack the Han army at the mountain pass, Wudang, you cross the river from the upper reaches, Litu, you cross the river from the lower reaches, and then surround the Han army's back route from the rear, and work together to kill this group of Han troops. "
"Okay, let's do that."
Wu Dang and Li Tu agreed and urged the horse to go.
Dian Ling glanced again, and galloped down Gaogang.
Not long after, amidst the sound of desolate horns, groups of Qiang soldiers rushed out of the camp and assembled quickly.
At this moment, the trumpets sounded together, and the drums shook the sky.
The gates of the Xiliang army standing between the mountain walls were wide open, and a group of infantry rushed out and lined up outside the camp.
Fifty wooden buildings fitted with wheels were pushed to the front and lined up.
These wooden buildings are two feet high and fifty feet wide. Although they are very simple, they have roofs on them to block bows and arrows.Ladders were installed at the back for soldiers to go up and down. Twenty archers stood on each wooden building, with only half of their bodies exposed outside.
In front of the Qiang soldiers.
After Dian Ling gave an order, five thousand Qiang soldiers rushed into the mountain wall, led by the big and small leaders, screaming.
Although these Qiang soldiers looked tough, their armor was thin, and their weapons were mostly wooden knives and bamboo spears. Except for the Qiang soldiers in the front row who held wooden shields, the rest of the Qiang soldiers had almost no protection, so they went forward clamoring.
In front of the Xiliang army formation, Wang Fang was wearing iron armor and stood proudly at the forefront of the army formation.
In the open space in front of him, rows of antlers were inserted obliquely into the ground at 45 angles. The tops were sharpened, and the bottoms were fixed to death with wooden stakes, forming a forest of death.
"Damn it, after waiting for three days, it finally came."
Wang Fang cursed and shouted: "Brothers, cheer up me, and let these barbaric Qiang people in the West Sea see the bravery of my Xiliang army. If anyone dares to embarrass me, I will kill him." The whole family!"
The [-] pawns behind him included Han people and Qiang people.
Hearing this, everyone's expressions became terrified, and their faces became ferocious.
Wang Fang brandished his saber, and roared again: "Of course, if anyone makes meritorious deeds, it doesn't matter. When the lord comes back, I will definitely ask for meritorious service and reward him a lot. It depends on whether you bastards have the ability to make meritorious deeds." Victory."
The eyes of the eight thousand soldiers immediately became hot, the rewards from the Xiliang Army were really enviable.
In order to encourage the troops under his command to fight the enemy bravely, Luo Zheng has always been very generous and generous in rewarding the soldiers.
Although this infantry has not been on the battlefield since they surrendered, they have been on the battlefield to survive until now. Veterans who have really killed people are not afraid of fighting at all. As long as the reward is rich enough, they dare to chop people.
And Luo Zheng's rich rewards to soldiers have long been spread in the army, and there is no soldier who is not jealous.
"Ouch!"
Eight thousand soldiers roared in unison, and their morale quickly climbed to the peak.
"Warriors who burn the Ministry, kill them!"
Outside the mountain pass, five thousand Qiang soldiers had already reached hundreds of paces away.
In front of the Qiang army formation, a big man of the Qiang nationality who looked like an iron tower raised his sword forward and roared sharply.
"Kill kill kill!"
Five thousand Qiang soldiers howled in response, swarming forward with high fighting spirit.
In front of the Xiliang army.
Wang Fang glanced at it and shouted, "Archers are ready!"
"Order."
A messenger answered the order with a clang, and howled loudly, "The general has an order, and the archers are ready."
A thousand archers on fifty wooden towers immediately opened their bows and set arrows, drawing their horn bows like a moon.
Five hundred hoplites put up huge shields, hid behind the antlers, and lined up in front of the wooden building.
Five thousand Qiang soldiers rushed to kill them, and when they were barely within range.
"Fire arrows!"
Wang Fang raised his right arm fiercely and swung it down fiercely, then quickly hid behind the heavy infantry.
A thousand archers had already stretched their bowstrings like a moon, and they all loosened their taut bowstrings immediately upon hearing the sound.
shhhhhh...
Amidst the sound of bowstrings bouncing and sharp blades piercing the air, thousands of powerful arrows left the strings, and the black rain of arrows shot out from the wooden building, and finally passed through more than [-] steps, and poured fiercely on the rolling killing ground. On the head of the Qiang soldiers.
The shrill howls sounded instantly, and the Qiang soldiers who lacked effective protection lost at least 500 people in the first wave of arrow rain from the Xiliang Army because of their dense formation. howling.
At the same time as Wang Fang gave the order, the big men in front of the Qiang soldiers shouted almost at the same time, "Fire the arrows!"
The [-] archers in the rear of the Qiang soldiers also drew their bows and fired [-] powerful arrows.
However, when the black rain of arrows hit the wooden building, almost all of them were blocked by the baffles of the wooden building. Even if there were arrows with high shooting angles, they hit the ceiling made of wooden boards, and there were only a few arrows. They shot into the wooden building and wounded several Xiliang soldiers.
"Don't stop, keep shooting!"
Wang Fang held a saber in his hand, stood behind the heavy armored infantry and yelled sharply.
The archers on the wooden tower all had stern faces and did not panic at all. They kept drawing and stringing their bows, pouring arrows on the Qiang soldiers' heads one after another, causing unimaginable casualties to the first wave of Qiang soldiers who attacked. .
"Damn!"
In front of the Qiang soldiers, the Qiang Han's eyes were bright, and he hissed loudly.
These Han troops were so cunning that they built so many wooden buildings and hid the archers in them to shoot arrows, but their soldiers had nowhere to hide, and they almost became the live rakes of the Han army's archers.
Although there were two thousand soldiers holding shields, they couldn't stop the dense rain of arrows at all.
"Withdraw, withdraw!"
In just a few moments, half of the [-] troops had already fallen. The Qiang Han's eyes were about to burst, and he quickly ordered the withdrawal of the troops.
Dian Lingqi's face was ashen when the Qiang soldiers were in the rear, and he cursed, "Damn Han people, they are too cunning."
A general said: "Commander, the archers of the Han army are hiding in that kind of wooden building. Our archers can't shoot them, and they all become living targets. They can't reach the front of the Han army at all. This time What should I do?"
Dian Ling shouted: "What should I do? Send a team of cavalry and let me rush up and burn these wooden buildings."
"As ordered."
The general agreed and hurriedly dispatched cavalry.
On the north bank of Huangshui River, on a hilltop.
Zhao Yun straddled his horse and stood upright. Seeing the Qiang soldiers' attack failed and retreated, a cold smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.
These wooden buildings were built temporarily by ordering military artisans after inspecting the terrain a few days ago.
Although it is not very useful, if it is used for defense, it can effectively protect the archers in front of the formation.If it weren't for these simple wooden buildings, the archers of the Xiliang Army would have suffered heavy casualties.
Although the armored infantry has amazing protection, it is impossible to protect all the archers.
With these wooden buildings, the casualties of the archers can be minimized. Coupled with other preparations, these Qiang soldiers will definitely have to pay an unimaginable price if they want to break through the Xiliang Army's defense head-on.
At this moment, a soldier nearby suddenly shouted: "General, the Qiang soldiers have divided up and crossed the river."
Zhao Yun's eyes were fixed, and he turned his head to look, and saw thick smoke rising from a beacon tower in the distance.
At the same time, on a mountain not far away, there were also small five-color flags waving back and forth.
