Chapter 184 Charge and kill!
As Gongsun Zan's cousin, Gongsun Fan still had some prestige in the military camp. And this time he personally led the team to block the enemy and made such a vow. Everyone believed that Gongsun Fan was with them.
Those who are as noble as Gongsun Fan stayed behind and left behind, so what are their soldiers complaining about? What's more, General Gongsun would give his family three times the pension, which was something that he never dared to think about in the past!
As for the authenticity of Gongsun Fan's words, no one doubted it, because he was Gongsun Zan's companion and was a person who represented the face of the Gongsun family!
Seeing the gradually firm expressions of the soldiers under his command, Gongsun Fan breathed a little relieved. From the current point of view, there is no need to worry about morale in at least a short time. As for how to collapse in the later period, it is no longer something he can consider. The most important thing now is to block the first wave of charge from the Jizhou Army!
In the rear of the army, the 30,000 troops led by Gongsun Zan had slowly turned around, and the front had already started to move. The fire cattle formation arranged at this moment gradually came to an end. The last batch of plowing oxes that rushed up had no threat to the blockade of the first batch of plowing oxes.
The only thing that the Fire Cow Formation can cause to the Jizhou Army is the only one that plows ox blocks the way.
A thousand plowing oxen were crossing between the two armies. Although it could no longer cause any harm to the Jizhou army, it at least prevented the Jizhou army from charging, making it impossible for the Jizhou army to catch up with the retreating Gongsun Zan and others as soon as possible.
However, by now, most of the plowing oxen have fallen to the ground, and the Jizhou army only needs to send someone to clean up. During this period, all Gongsun Fan can do is to wait in a formation and wait for the Jizhou army to rush over!
"Send the order, all the troops line up and defend and never retreat!"
......
In front of the Jizhou army, Pan Feng looked at Gongsun Zan and others who were slowly retreating behind the army.
It seems that Gongsun Zan also knows that once the Fire Bull Formation loses its effect, they will not be opponents of the Jizhou Army. Now, taking advantage of the war between the two armies and retreating is still easy, it is indeed the best time to lead the army and leave. Otherwise, when the two armies are fighting together, the soldiers will hear shouts and screams. Who can still hear Gongsun Zan's order?
But if Gongsun Zan wants to leave, can Pan Feng let him do what he wants? This is the best opportunity to destroy the main force of the Youzhou Army, otherwise he will have to fight the siege. In this way, the manpower, material resources and practice will be consumed will increase exponentially. Moreover, the variables will increase, and Pan Feng does not want to spend too long nights and dreams.
“Yun Yi!”
Zhang He rushed forward: "The last general is here!"
"You lead the Qilin Camp around and pursue the enemy. If the enemy's formation is not chaotic, you just need to harass it from the side. If the enemy's formation is in chaos, you can wait for an opportunity to rush!"
"No!" Zhang He became excited and looked at the Youzhou army retreating not far away as if he was watching a singer who had taken off his clothes.
Tactics involved is the main training event of the Qilin Camp, in order to give full play to the advantage of speed. In Zhang He's eyes, such a retreating army is an unprepared existence. He has a hundred ways to delay the enemy's army with minimal losses. Unless the enemy forms a formation to counterattack, there is no threat to the Qilin Camp.
After receiving the order, Zhang He quickly went down to summon the troops. The other generals had no orders from Pan Feng and could only watch Zhang He leave with jealousy, and then set their eyes on the Fire Bull Formation that was gradually calming in front of the formation.
Now there is no threat to the Fire Bull Formation. The auxiliary soldiers of the Xuanwu Army are cleaning up the plowing oxes in front of the formation under the command of Qu Yi. The plowing oxes that fell were dragged by a group of people to bring out long traces, and those who are also able to walk by themselves are driven to both sides.
The ox mooed in the field and screamed in a constant stream. Some oxen with relatively irritable tempers wanted to use the horns to push the sword and shield soldiers around them, but the sword and shield soldiers pierced their necks in a few seconds and fell to the ground on the spot.
Although the scene was a bit chaotic, hundreds of swords and shield soldiers cooperated with a thousand Xuanwu auxiliary soldiers and quickly cleared the ground between the two armies.
As the noisy oxen were cleaned up, the atmosphere on the battlefield gradually became solemn.
At this time, a rumbling sound came.
Gongsun Fan's face changed, and then he saw a cavalry rushing out from behind the Jizhou Army. Then the group of cavalry rushing around the place where the two armies confronted each other and chased in the direction where Gongsun Zan's army left.
They headed towards the Youzhou army!
Gongsun Fan wanted to send someone to stop the group of cavalry, but he found that the marching speed of these cavalry was faster than any cavalry he had ever seen. He saw them at the back of the Jizhou military formation the moment before, and the next moment he found that they had arrived at the side of his military formation.
Before Gongsun Fan could react, the group of cavalry rushed over Gongsun Fan's direction and rushed into the distance.
Seeing that there was no hope of intercepting cavalry, Gongsun Fan could only turn his eyes to the fierce Jizhou army in front of him. At present, the main task was to stop this main force. As for those cavalry, Gongsun Zan knew their existence. This retreat was not without defense. It was just a pity for the group of cavalry drawn from all over the country. Gongsun Zan was still counting on selecting the seedlings of the White Horse Yicong from them. Now it seems that there is no hope.
Gongsun Fan retracted his thoughts and stopped thinking about the cavalry crossing the defense line. He focused all his attention on the enemy in front of him.
On the other hand, Pan Feng looked at the Youzhou Army who had left behind the rear. Although he admired their courage, he showed no mercy in his hands.
The Xuanwu soldiers who had resisted the Fire Bull Formation had retreated to both sides, and they no longer had to make any efforts in the next battle.
Looking at the Youzhou soldiers waiting for battle on the opposite side, the Jizhou army was not afraid at all, and they all looked serious and even excited.
"Soldiers, the enemy is right in front of me, rush over to kill me, kill me! Kill!!!" With the blessing of Pan Feng's thunder, his voice spread throughout the army. When the soldiers of Jizhou heard Pan Feng's voice, they were all excited.
In front of the formation, the red rabbit horse raised its hooves high, and rushed out like an arrow from the string.
"Kill!" Gao Lan and Deng Long followed Pan Feng and chased after him.
Both of them are good at charging, so they naturally have to fight with Pan Feng at this moment. Moreover, Deng Long, the new captain, has already made Gao Lan feel a little pressure.
In the past, no one except Pan Feng could compete with him in the rushing battle, but after Deng Long arrived, his courage and decisiveness forced Gao Lan to pay attention to it. Now it is a rare battle, so he, a veteran, naturally cannot lose to Deng Long, the newcomer.
Deng Long on the other side also had the intention of performing well, and unknowingly he was already competing with Gao Lan.
"Follow the general and kill him!" The generals of each unit also launched a charge.
"Kill!" All the soldiers rushed up, and for a moment, the rumbling drums and tide-like fighting sounded across the plain.
......
The entire Jizhou army's appearance of the entire Jizhou army blocking the killing made the Youzhou army unconsciously feel a little panic. Many people's temples unknowingly shed a trace of cold sweat, and the breath of death hits their faces, making it hard to control themselves.
"Don't be afraid, our army has a tight formation. The enemy rushed up to it and it was nothing more than seeking death. As long as we stick to the formation, our army will definitely win!" Gongsun Fan rode a war horse in the formation and shouted loudly to encourage the soldiers around him.
Hearing his words, some of the new recruits' expressions did relax, but the veterans were still serious.
Whether the enemy is strong depends on the momentum of the charge. Even if they have the advantage of the formation, the formation can play its greatest role when it is evenly matched. If the formation is swept away, the enemy will definitely be completely penetrated like a broken bamboo.
In that case, it would be better to start with the frontal rush, at least in terms of impact force, or the charge of the Jizhou army would not be able to withstand the Youzhou army standing in place.
Because the soldiers who broke the rear this time did not have crossbowmen, it was impossible to use bows and arrows to slow down the enemy's rush.
Everything depends on whether the sword and shield soldiers in the front row can block the first wave of impact!
"kill!"
The shouts of killing were getting closer and closer. The Youzhou army in the front row could already see the ferocious faces on the faces of the soldiers in the Jizhou army. But those eyes full of murderous intent were enough to make the Youzhou army in the front row cold all over the body.
The enemy is a powerful soldier in a hundred battles!
As soon as this thought arose, Pan Feng and others who were rushing to the front had already collided with the Youzhou soldiers in the front row.
"Xilulu!"
The Red Rabbit Horse roared high, expressing the long-depressed desire to rush in his heart. Then a pair of horse hooves with a bowl of hooves stomped hard towards the shield in front of him.
"Bang!"
"Click!"
The shield burst into pieces the moment it came into contact with the horse's hooves. The soldiers behind did not even understand what happened and were stepped on by the Red Rabbit's hooves. Accompanied by the sound of bone breaking, the Red Rabbit's hooves ran forward with force.
At the same time, the Pan Feng Fangtian Painted Spear on the horse's back swept across like a judge's brush. Any shield dared to block the way of Fang Tian Painted Spear would be shattered by a terrifying blow from the Fang Tian Painted Spear as soon as possible.
The Youzhou Army holding shields could not imagine how terrifying the power it would take to break the shield inlaid with iron in its hand, but the soldiers had no chance to figure it out. The Fang Tian Painting Halberd that flashed by had already harvested their lives in a flash.
"Pan Feng in Jizhou is here, who dares to be an enemy of me!"
Pan Feng roared with all the soldiers around him who wanted to get closer. Two timid people were scared to death by the roar and then fell to the ground and died.
At this moment, only a few breaths were left before Pan Feng rushed into the formation, and as long as the Youzhou soldiers around him had the strength to stand, they were all trying hard to retreat. Those who had not had time to retreat fell under the edge of Fang Tian's painting halberd.
Seeing Pan Feng rushing into the formation as if he was in a state of no one, Gao Lan and Deng Long behind him were suddenly excited and roared into the formation. The soldiers of Youzhou were not the opponents of these powerful generals. The seemingly solid defense instantly collapsed under the impact of the two people, and the soldiers who bravely rushed up fell down like wheat.
With just a few breaths, three terrifying gaps appeared on the Youzhou Army's defense line.
Gongsun Fan's face was pale and his eyes showed fear. According to this situation, his 10,000 army would not be able to resist a large-scale defeat. Once the defeat occurred, he would not be able to recover the defeat even if he had the power to restore the sky.
We can't let Pan Feng and the others fight like this!
Thinking of this, Gongsun Fan quickly looked at Lu Zhen beside him: "Wait until you go over and stop Pan Feng and the others, be sure to buy time for other soldiers!"
In Gongsun Fan's opinion, only his own personal guards have the ability to stop Pan Feng and others' sharpness at this time, but he, the main general, cannot take risks easily, otherwise the lack of a leader would only make the battle worse.
Lu Zhen next to him felt distressed when he heard Gongsun Fan's words, but the order had been issued. As the commander of the personal guard, he would take it forward without hesitation even though he knew that he would die.
"Don't worry, General, we will definitely stop Pan Feng!"
After saying that, Lu Zhen called out all the personal guards beside Gongsun Fan and rushed quickly towards Pan Feng's direction.
At this time, the front army of Jizhou Army finally collided with the formation of Youzhou Army.
Chapter completed!
