Chapter eight hundred and nineteen two-line war
The 150,000 troops of Dashu were divided into two groups. One was led by Emperor Xuande to go to Hulukou to block the 100,000 cavalry of the Great Wei, and the other was led by Guan Yunchang, who stepped up the defense and were ready to deal with Dian Wei's attack at any time.
At this moment, there are less than three days left before the date agreed upon with Yu Han.
Emperor Xuande hesitated for a moment, but finally sent someone to deliver the order.
But when the messenger passed by, he suddenly realized that the Six Flags Army had already been empty.
Moreover, the real person was empty, and the formation arranged inside disappeared. Only a secret letter was left in the barracks, saying, "Your Majesty, I'll tell you!"
The commander did not dare to neglect and hurriedly delivered the letter to Emperor Xuande, who was about to set sail.
After reading it, Emperor Xuande just smiled slightly, then destroyed the letter, and rode his horse towards the gourd mouth.
Guan Yunchang looked at their departure backs and couldn't help but sigh in his heart.
The last time the Wei and Wu attacked together, Zhao Zilong, who ended in the northern battlefield, killed Lu Fengxian, and Yu Han, who was in the southern battlefield, captured the opponent's chief general Sun Shangxiang alive.
Now that Sun Shangxiang has been released, he didn't expect that Sun Zhongmou of the Great Wu would tore up the agreement between the two sides and invade again. Moreover, this time, these two great gods seemed determined to divide the territory of Da Shu, so there was no room for anything left.
Almost all the troops that could be used were involved.
Therefore, in this battle, the troops of Dashu were inevitably pale in comparison, and the huge gap in the military strength was difficult to take.
Although there is no news on the southern battlefield, I think the situation is no better than here.
He sighed heavily. His Majesty had almost 50,000 infantry soldiers against the opponent's 100,000 cavalry. Even with the help of the terrain of the gourd mouth, he would definitely be a life-threatening death.
He was willing to go to Hulukou instead of His Majesty, but Emperor Xuande seemed very persistent and had to give up.
Guan Yunchang's eyes narrowed slightly. At this moment, all he could do was to defend his belly and use this natural barrier to block 400,000 Wei troops here.
However, this battle is also not easy to fight.
As long as one of them and Emperor Xuande is broken through, they will be completely surrounded without any escape.
With a 500,000 army, crushing 150,000 troops, this huge difference really makes people feel no confidence.
Especially Yu Han, who actually left at this critical moment, was even more annoying.
Thinking of this, Guan Yunchang shook his head, and for the sake of the present, he had to hold on to his death.
He waved his hand and said to the side general beside him: "Order all the soldiers of the army to be ready to fight at any time!"
In a remote place outside the Shu army camp, all the five elements flags gathered.
Yu Han stood among the crowd with a cold eyes: "The 100,000 cavalry of the Wei army is the fuse of this battle. The war is about to begin, although we are still three days away!"
"But the other party obviously won't give us three more days!"
"But there are no more impacts in these three days!"
He took a deep breath: "Jinxing Banner and Tuxing Banner followed me to Hulukou and intercepted and killed 100,000 cavalry from the other three flags immediately set up ambush ten miles north of the Fu River. There may be a team of Wei troops there!"
"We do not have an advantage in numbers. We have arranged ambushes in advance and retreated layer by layer, which is not enough to compete. If necessary, the Fire Flag will cover the retreat!"
The three flag owners took the order to go at the same time, while Yu Han took another two thousand soldiers and flew towards the gourd mouth.
As the name suggests, this valley is located between two mountains. The passage is less than ten meters wide and seems spacious, but it is still not enough for the 100,000 Wei cavalry.
This is also the main reason why Emperor Xuande wanted to intercept the Wei army here!
Yu Han brought two flag soldiers to activate the Wind God Formation, which was extremely fast, even several times faster than Emperor Xuande's urgent marching.
Standing in the center of the gourd mouth, Yu Han looked around at the surrounding terrain.
The entire length of the gourd mouth is nearly 100 meters, which can be calculated as the volume. It is estimated that it can accommodate at least 50,000 or 60,000 cavalry passing at the same time.
Xu Fei immediately waved his hand and led the Jinxingqi soldiers to divide into two teams and gallop towards the peaks on both sides.
Yu Han first looked at Yu Fei: "Yu Fei, you lead the territorial flag soldiers to sneak into the last place and hide underground. Once the opponent's large army passes through the gourd mouth, cut them off in half!"
Yu Fei nodded.
Yu Han looked at Xu Fei again, and found that he frowned slightly, as if he wanted to speak but stopped. He immediately asked, "Is there anything wrong?"
Xu Fei said: "It can accommodate up to 50,000 or 60,000 cavalry here. In other words, even if they are left alone, at least half of the cavalry will not enter here. Although Yu Fei and the others are extremely powerful, they are also much worse under the trampling of the Iron Cavalry!"
"Although they lost the distance to charge, the 100,000 cavalry is not a trivial matter. Just relying on the earth flag alone is probably not enough to completely cut them off, or they can't hold on for long!"
Yu Han smiled slightly: "So it depends on you next!"
"Jinxingqi, climb the mountain and prepare the big stone immediately. The other party will arrive in two hours. There are 500 people on each of the mountain peaks on both sides, ready to listen to my orders at any time!"
He continued: "After all the big stones were pushed down, the two teams immediately gathered to meet Yu Fei. With your Jinxing Banner and Tuxing Banner, you will be both open and dark. No matter how powerful the other cavalry is, you can't break the blockade!"
"If the grass is cut without eradicating the roots, the spring breeze will grow again. In this way, even if the opponent's 50,000 or 60,000 cavalry can be killed, in the end, 40,000 cavalry will escape!"
"They are still potentially dangerous!"
Xu Fei was still a little worried.
Yu Han waved his hand: "Don't worry, I will never let them escape so many people!"
He pointed to the endless wilderness behind the mouth of the gourd: "They thought that the wilderness was a paradise for cavalry, but unfortunately there was also a meticulous feast I prepared for them!"
Xu Fei knew his strategy, and seeing that he was so considerate, he immediately stopped saying anything and immediately led five hundred Jinxing Banner soldiers to climb to the mountain on the right.
The other five hundred people were led by Yu Han himself and stepped onto the mountain on the left.
Although the Six Banners Army is not large in number, it is fighting for tactics and means, and the sword is taking a different approach, not really fighting indiscriminately for the two armies.
Even though this arrangement could give Emperor Xuande too much chance of winning, Yu Han still had some concerns in his heart that he did not explain to Xu Fei and the others.
Yi Tian’s army has been completely destroyed, but the Wei Dynasty still has two independent armies.
A single army called the Heavenly Warrior ranked second, and it is said that it is all masters. In terms of individual strength, it even surpasses the imperial guards next to Emperor Xuande. Now there is only nine thousand left.
But the number one Destroyed Army is extremely mysterious, because until now, there is no record of this army taking action, so no one knows how powerful this army is.
Unknown dangers are the most terrifying, so Yu Han, who has enough confidence in the Six Flag Army, is also very worried.
Two hours passed quickly, and on the field outside the gourd, the vast Wei cavalry were gradually approaching.
Yu Han, who was on the mountain peaks on both sides, narrowed his eyes slightly, looked at the black cavalry and clenched his fists slightly.
At the same time, the 50,000 army led by Emperor Xuande finally arrived at the gourd entrance at this moment. Of course, he also saw the army rolling towards the opposite side.
"Your Majesty, most of us are infantry. We should set up a barrier at the center of the gourd mouth to block the charge of the opponent's cavalry, and then use this as a stronghold to block the Wei army!" A military advisor said lightly.
I have to say that this arrangement was indeed the most perfect arrangement in the blocking battle, but Emperor Xuande shook his head.
"Although this move can stop the other party, they may abandon this road and break through the mountain roads on both sides. At that time, we will be attacked from both sides, and we may not be able to hold on for long!"
The military advisor sighed secretly when he heard this. But what else can he do if he doesn't do this?
Emperor Xuande pointed at a distance of about a hundred meters outside the gourd mouth.
"Immediately let the soldiers cut wood and move stones, and use this place as the boundary to build a barrier against the cavalry for me!"
He looked at the open space in front of him with a radius of 100 meters.
"This is their death place. Let these cavalry come over, and then we kill them bit by bit. The dead cavalry is also a natural barrier, and their army will definitely rush out to rescue them in a hurry!"
"All of them flock here by then, and the more they die, the more they die!"
Emperor Xuande often formulated tactics with Zhuge Kongming, Zhao Zilong and others throughout his early years, so he also had a very profound understanding of tactics.
Hearing his arrangements, the soldiers immediately seized the time to build defense, while the military advisor and several generals nodded secretly.
I have to say that Your Majesty’s arrangement this time is much more clever than the previous military advisor’s arrangement.
With the approaching of the 100,000 Great Wei cavalry, the half-man high defense temporarily built by giant trees and big stones was finally formed.
On the other side, the Wei army's 100,000 cavalry also stopped, and the general led by him.
It was Xiahou Yuan, who was known as the number one person outside the Ten Mysteries.
He waved his hand and stopped the advance of his soldiers.
Looking at the barrier in a semicircular shape in front of him, a smile gradually appeared on the corner of his mouth.
"They came here very slowly, but they originally thought they wanted to set up ambushes on both sides, but they didn't expect that they had to block our army's iron hoofs in this rough way!"
Xiahou Yuan couldn't help but shook his head and sighed: "What's the news from the scout team?"
"A side general came over and handed a silk hand in front of him!"
After Xiahou Yuan saw it, the smile on his lips became even stronger: "These student soldiers are really powerful when they are scouts. I am afraid that any scout team in the three great gods will not be able to match it!"
"The road they wade through is naturally safe!"
Xiahou Yuan raised the whip high: "The student scout team has arrived behind the enemy. Once the war begins, the Shu army's camp will be completely disrupted. He thought we would pass slowly, so he created such a barrier!"
"It's a pity, I really didn't think about wasting time with them!"
"So, then charge!"
A torrent of 100,000 iron hooves swarmed towards the gourd mouth with an unstoppable momentum!
