Chapter 174: Desperate to annihilate the rebels


For a while, with the blitzkrieg raid of the Yanmen Iron Cavalry, the rebels were caught off guard and could not resist the powerful edge of the cavalry. was killed and retreated one after another But after the main general Xiao Yue heard Xun, instead of ordering to stop the siege, he made a desperate bet and forcibly attacked the city.

In fact, such an order is not that Xiao Yue does not know how to use troops.

It's that Xiao Yue has no choice.

You must know that now the Sui army has completely cut off their contact with the main army, and even the logistics supply line.

Even if it is a temporary retreat, it will inevitably lead to a rout of the army in the end.

Therefore, Xiao Yue wanted to take this opportunity to rely on the momentum of the whole army to go straight into the city.

Then use it as a stronghold and wait for the arrival of the main army.

But it is precisely at this point that there is also a crisis in Shinno City.

Since defending the city for many days, Zhang Xun actually felt the breath of the city being broken.

The current rebels are so crazy that they are almost dead in a wave, and then they make up for it and continue the attack.

Wave after wave of rebels poured in, and the defenders fell in pools of blood one after another.

At the moment of crisis, Zhang Xun, the county commander in the middle command, also struggled to draw his waist sword, and together with the defending sergeants, he slashed the rebel soldiers who had already attacked the city wall.

"Brothers, this county lives and dies with you today, only to protect the safety of the whole city."

In an instant, Zhang Xun shouted loudly while slashing at the rebel soldiers.

For a while, the remaining soldiers defending the city raised their mortal intentions and began to fight for their lives with the rebels.

After all, hot-blooded children have the most basic dignity.

Now they saw that even the scribe of the county commander, whom they respected the most, had given up his life for the sake of the city.

And how much more of them men in the prime of life?

As the defenders fought for their lives, the rebel soldiers were once again blocked.

At this time, Xiao Yue, the chief general of the Chinese army, was already anxious in his heart.

After all, now that time is urgent, if you don't break through the city as soon as possible, once you let the Sui army's iron cavalry rush to kill.

Then the whole army will face a complete collapse.

It was only said that Xiao Yue was about to wave his hand and order the pro-guard army to be sent out.

Suddenly, an urgent report came "Tell the general, the iron cavalry of the Sui army has come to kill, and now it is only ten miles away from our Chinese army."

Hearing this, Xiao Yue's heart suddenly felt like a deflated ball.

The war has continued until now, and Xiao Yue already knows that he will definitely lose this time.

Although the Sui army still has ten miles to go, if it is an infantry army, it may take a short time.

For the cavalry, however, the distance was fleeting.

"General, give the order to retreat" "Otherwise, our army will suffer from the enemy."

For a time, the rebel generals spoke out one after another.

"No, you can't withdraw the general's order, and Mingjin will recall the whole army."

"Set up a position and face the Sui army" Suddenly, Xiao Yue actually did the opposite, and actually ordered to form a formation in the direction of the Sui army's iron cavalry.

Although this order was absurd, the whole army had to do it.

After the whole army hastily formed a formation according to the various departments, Xiao Yue noticed that the faces of the generals were full of doubts. couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief, and slowly explained: "The reason why the general didn't order the withdrawal of the army was actually a last resort. ” "If you think about it carefully, now the Sui Army's iron cavalry can arrive in an instant."

"Even if our army is hastily withdrawn now, how can two legs run over four legs."

"And if you evacuate at this time, the fighting spirit of the soldiers will only dissipate in an instant, and they will become a rout, and they will be at the disposal of the Sui army at that time."

"Therefore, this general will take advantage of the fact that the soldiers still have a breath to meet the Sui army head-on, in order to turn defeat into victory" Xiao Yue's words slowly spoke, and in an instant, the doubts of all the generals under his command were dispelled.

I have to say that Xiao Yue still has a certain ability to command troops.

If Xiao Yue really led the army to retreat at this time, as long as Gao Qi led the cavalry to crush it, the rebels would definitely collapse.

And although Xiao Yue ordered the whole army to form a formation against the Yanmen Iron Cavalry, it seemed to be a risk and a suicide.

Actually, after all, the rebels have just attacked the city, and the morale is still solidified and has not dissipated.

It shows that Xiao Yuejun still has a chance of victory, but the probability is extremely small.

In an instant, the layers of smoke from the Yanmen Iron Horse galloped like flying sand and stones.

"General, the rebels don't seem to have fled, and are forming a formation waiting for our army."

Just said that looking at Xiao Yue's army from afar, the general Zhang Liao first bowed his hand to Gao Qi and said.

"Oh" Hearing this, Gao Qi was slightly surprised, and then raised his head and slowly looked at the rebel formation.

Immediately, after pondering for a moment, Gao Qi said: "It seems that the enemy's commander is not completely ignorant of using troops. ” "He didn't take the opportunity to lead the army to escape, but instead formed a formation on the spot, preparing for a decisive battle with our army" "Why did the young master say this?"

Hearing this, Dian Wei, the commander of the guards on the side, didn't react for a while, and couldn't help but wonder.

"Haha" Hearing this, Gao Qi first laughed, and then asked: "Brother Dian thinks that even if the rebels escape." ” "Can Their Two Legs Outweigh Our Four?"

Hearing this, Dian Wei also seemed to understand thoughtfully, and couldn't help but give a rare compliment: "The young master is wise" Just said, Gao Qi just snorted coldly and said, "It's just that all this of the rebels is just in vain." ” "How can my Yanmen Iron Cavalry be comparable to this rabble?"

After calming down, Gao Qi ordered: "Zhang Shigui, the general has now ordered you to be the vanguard general, leading the Falcon Cavalry Battalion under his command to rush across the enemy's army formation, can you have the confidence to do it?"

Hearing his name, Zhang Shigui suddenly felt his whole body boiling, and couldn't help but excitedly order: "Don't worry, the general will break the rebels at the end, and the master of the enemy will return with his head." ” After speaking, Zhang Shigui slowly retreated and led the army to rush away.

In fact, when cavalry duels infantry, a frontal assault is not a good way.

After all, although cavalry is the natural nemesis of the infantry army, as long as the infantry army has a solid formation.

It was also difficult for the cavalry to rush across with its powerful impact.

Therefore, the best way for cavalry to defeat the infantry is to use its mobility to attack the infantry first.

When the foot soldiers are exhausted, they make a detour from the side, break the infantry formation, and then outflank them.

This is the best way for cavalry to win over foot soldiers And now, the reason why Gao Qi ordered Zhang Shigui to lead the Falcon Cavalry Battalion to attack head-on.

In fact, the main reason is that Gao Qi wants to test how strong the combat power of his own Falcon Cavalry is, and what the combat effectiveness of the rebel army is Make a comparison in your heart, which will be beneficial to counterinsurgency Xiao Liang in the future.

As the saying goes: "Know yourself and know your opponent, you will not be defeated in a hundred battles" Only by fully understanding the enemy can we make the most correct choice.

Soon, the Falcon Cavalry Battalion, under the command of Zhang Shigui, kicked up a cloud of dust.

The galloping sound of war horses that resounded through the sky seemed to go straight into the sky.

For a while, the swords and guns held by Xiao Yue's soldiers couldn't help but be affected by the momentum.

A vigorous collision of cavalry and foot soldiers is about to begin.

The great chaos of the end of the Sui Dynasty called :
