Prince of Song Dynasty

Chapter 1127: All-rounder Black Moon
Ye Chen achieved his goal beyond expectations. After this blitz, even if Dang Jin was not shocked, the cavalry below were also temporarily frightened.Without a few days of comfort and deterrence, even if Dang Jin forcibly brought them to Ye Chen, he would not have much courage.

Looking at the messy camp and the corpses everywhere, Dang Jin could not grit his teeth, and said bitterly: "Stop advancing, rest for two days, wait for the friendly troops to catch up, and then dispatch together!" Ten times the strength of the opponent can be sure of victory.

……

……

On the other side of the Yongding River, he felt that he had seized a good opportunity. The spies reported that Ye Chen's personal guard camp had left the camp and was galloping towards the right wing. Chen, it seems that Ye Chen can't sit still anymore. After the 4000 cavalry left, Ye Chen only has [-] troops left. He already has a huge advantage in military strength. If he can eat the opponent, then he can fight with Dang Jin Even if Ye Chen wins in the field, he can only become his own prey when he returns.

If Ye Chen's 1000 troops are all there, even if the opponent's strength is five times that of the opponent, Guo Wuwei will never make this idea. He would rather wait until all the troops squeeze in together before making a move, but now a huge temptation is swaying. In front of him, if he eats the army in front of him, there is no doubt that the first credit for this battle will belong to him. If he is lucky enough, he can even eat this army, and then defeat Ye Chen who has returned regardless of victory or defeat. .

Guo Wuwei began to dispatch troops and dispatched generals, and the sentries crossed the Yongding River one after another. Perhaps they had noticed something, and the opposing guards who stayed behind in the camp began to pull out their camps and headed towards the upper reaches of the Yongding River.

As soon as the opponent left, Guo Wuwei strengthened his determination to fight this battle. It seems that Hei Yue already knew that he was going to fight, and he thought he was not an opponent, so he had to leave the camp and leave.

Hei Yue did leave, but it wasn't that Hei Yue was afraid of him as Guo Wuwei imagined, but when Hei Yue found out that the other party really wanted to take advantage of this opportunity, he started to march towards the battlefield chosen by Ye Chen. In the selected place, the special terrain will force Guo Wuwei to attack the Xiangfu National Army from the front, and there is no possibility of turning around from both sides.

Looking at the meandering Yongding River, Hei Yue sneered, "Come on, Guo Wuwei, let you see the combat power of our Tianwei Army."

Set up camp and began to build fortifications. Heiyue's defense was facing the Yongding River, which was nearly a hundred steps away from the Yongding River. The Yongding River embankment became his first line of defense. The embankment about two feet high was splashed. After entering the water, it formed an ice wall, which was not slippery. On top of it, a parapet about one foot high was built. These parapets were made entirely of snow, and then poured cold water. It is stronger than steel.

This legion leader who built the strongest cavalry legion in the world with one hand and the most mysterious origin did not do anything, and he just built simple versions of bastions with snow on his position. Anyway, snow is not enough. Building a city with snow is extremely simple, and pouring ice water on it is much stronger than a city wall with ordinary civil structures.

In less than a day, Black Moon built a seemingly simple but murderous fortification group on the field.And that night, Hei Yue dispatched manpower to secretly handle the tasks assigned by Ye Chen without resting all night.

When Guo Wuwei saw the fortification site chosen by Hei Yue, he secretly scolded his mother, but also had to admire the famous head of the Tianwei Army, Hei Yue, who was really difficult to deal with.

Heiyue chose to garrison a "concave"-shaped place, with steep mountains at both ends, covered with forests, and snow several meters thick. Heiyue deployed troops to the bottom of this "concave"-shaped place. Crossing the river to attack, they had to take a long detour and cross the steep ridge.In this cold weather, it is almost an impossible task.On the contrary, due to the freezing of Yongding River, the originally wide water surface here has become flat.

Standing on the smooth ice, Guo Wuwei stared at the defense line made of ice and snow on the opposite side, his hands in his sleeves clenched involuntarily, it looked difficult to fight!But at this time, the arrow is on the string, and it has to be launched.Besides, he already had a secret mission entrusted by his master Zhang Wumeng, which was to consume the Song army in his hands as much as possible.

The commander-in-chief of the Hedong Road Army was named Wu Yupeng, and Wu Yupeng was standing beside Guo Wuwei at this time. Although he was assigned by Guo Wuwei, the transshipment envoy of Hedong Road, under normal circumstances, if he refused to obey the dispatch, Guo Wuwei would not be able to do anything.However, it is obvious that Guo Wuwei has convinced this person in some ways.

"Although Hei Yue has not been well-known in the past few years, he can become the commander of the Tianwei Army, the largest army in the Xiangfu Kingdom. I know that he is not Yi Yi's generation. I just heard that this person is very good at cavalry combat, but now I look at him. He is an all-rounder in choosing the battlefield and arranging defenses. General Wu can't underestimate the enemy." Guo Wuwei said solemnly.

Wu Yupeng nodded and said, "Master Guo, don't worry, we won't take it lightly when facing the Shangxiang Fu Kingdom's army, even if it is a heavy army. A lion fights a rabbit with all our strength."

Guo Wuwei sighed, and said: "If I could choose, I really don't want to be an enemy of people like Ye Chen! I hope I can kill Ye Chen this time. Otherwise"

Guo Wuwei didn't finish his words, but Wu Yupeng already understood what he meant.

Wu Yupeng returned to his station to prepare, Guo Wuwei stood on the ice, stared at the opposite position for the last time, turned around abruptly and returned to the command camp he had set up on a high ground, standing there, overlooking the battlefield in front of him.

Dozens of battle drums were beating, and rows of infantry descended to the ice and quickly assembled into a dense formation. A trebuchet was carefully placed on the ice, followed by giant guns. The crossbow was also placed on the ice. The ice was smooth. The trebuchet, which usually required dozens of people to move, can now be pushed by a dozen people. When these heavy equipment were pushed to the center of the Yongding River, they were fixed in place. The infantry stepped past these instruments and began to advance.

The first stone bullet crossed the Yongding River, hit the embankment with a bang, and measured the shooting distance. Soon the throwers were busy adjusting the shooting angle and carrying the stone bullet.

At the rear of the Black Moon camp, dozens of giant trebuchets are also ready to go. Looking at the opposite trebuchet, the corners of Hei Yue's eyes twitched a few times. When the other party surrendered, it was just distributed to the other party.In the past, Xiangfu Kingdom competed with the other side for range and accuracy of slingshots, but this time it has no advantage at all.

"Take aim at those trebuchets first, and destroy them." Hei Yue said loudly, this thing is too threatening, if one bullet falls off, if you are unlucky, it can kill or injure dozens of people.

"General, after our catapults set up positions, they won't be able to reach them!" the commander of the catapult company said angrily.

The battle drums on both sides were beating at the same time, and the drums gradually became more and more exciting. The soldiers on both sides were also beating the drums, and their fighting spirit gradually soared, until the horns sounded suddenly, and the two sides of the strait broke out almost at the same time. across the sky, falling to the opponent.

With a few bangs, several bunkers were immediately smashed down, and several soldiers were pressed down, while blood burst out all the way on the river. The parapet on the defensive position of the Xiangfu National Army blocked the rolling of the stone bullets, but above the Yongding River, Those falling stone bullets were like a fish in water, and their lethality was several times greater than usual.In the first round of mutual shooting, it was Hei Yue who had the upper hand.

On the smooth ice, blood flowed, and the red quickly spread on the white ice. The attacking soldiers stepped on the blood of their comrades, with red eyes, shouting, roaring, carrying simple wooden ladders, pushing With a simple building car, quickly advance along the ice.This kind of building car was built on the spot by Guo Wuwei after he observed the opponent's defense line. It was only about three meters high, and there was a ramp on one side. You can condescend to hack and kill the Xiangfu soldiers behind the line of defense.

Guo Wuwei is not worried about the lack of troops, let alone casualties on his own side. In his opinion, even if it is exhausted, it can exhaust the opponent's troops. Don't worry about not being able to defeat this line of defense.Instead, he focused on the seven thousand cavalry that Ye Chen had brought out.

Hei Yue's deployment of troops here can indeed make him unable to attack from both sides, and can only attack from the front, but also, the [-] cavalry led by Ye Chen cannot go to support him after returning. In other words, Hei Yue put himself to death. However, he has no choice but to fight to the death. Of course, he can retreat to the mountain behind him, but this season, entering the mountain, what is the difference between that and death?
The only possibility is that after Ye Chen comes back, he will most likely cross the frozen river and attack himself later. Therefore, even if the frontal battlefield is wide enough, Guo Wuwei still only orders 5 people to divide into two waves to attack in turn, and the rest One after another, the main force deployed defenses behind them to prevent Ye Chen from attacking from behind.

"Be careful when sailing for ten thousand years. Facing a terrifying enemy like Ye Chen, no matter how careful you are, you can't be too careful." Guo Wuwei thought to himself.

Ye Chen's going here must be to attack the elite northwest frontier army led by Dangjin, Guo Wuwei didn't care about the casualties of Dangjin's side at all, and it would even be better if Dangjin's side died more.

The Northwest Frontier Army led by Dang Jin is extremely powerful, much stronger than the Hedong Army led by him, so what Guo Wuwei is concerned about is how much Ye Chen will lose after fighting Dang Jin.

"The best thing is that both Ye Chen and Dang Jin will suffer heavy losses." Guo Wuwei expected in his heart, but reason told him that the possibility of such a situation was extremely small.Since Ye Chen dared to attack at this time, he must be sure. The biggest possibility is that after eating an elite of the Northwest Frontier Army, he turned back to deal with him.
