Chapter 190 Capture the King
There are no borders when there are thousands of people. In fact, if the distance is further away, the hedging and fighting of 20,000 people is not too shocking. But when the distance is close, or when you are in it, look around,
There are enemies ahead, boundless, and it is a big test for the mentality of the soldiers in combat.
The soldiers trapped in the camp are all selected from veterans who have experienced hundreds of battles. They fight, advance or retreat, and don't care about the number of enemies around them. However, ordinary soldiers, whether Yuan Jun or Guanzhong Army, can't do this.
At this point, and therefore, being trapped in the camp gives the enemy the feeling that a mountain is pressing down on them, and they feel out of breath before the battle begins.
The hedging of thousands of people and the elites of thousands of people can play a great role. Things like the trapped camp can easily affect the outcome of a battle of ten thousand people. Even if the opponent is also a powerful general, when facing the trapped camp,
We can only avoid the enemy's sharp edge. Wen Chou feels this way now, and cannot confront him head-on. Wen Chou has such thoughts and feelings of powerlessness towards Wen Chou who rushes forward bravely, let alone others.
After only a quarter of an hour of contact, Yuan's army was already on the verge of defeat. Gao Lan and a group of troops wanted to penetrate from the flanks, harass the enemy's rear, and disrupt the Guanzhong Army's formation. However, Gao Shun's rear, who was responsible for commanding the army, focused on stability.
Wang Biao's formation was very stable, and Cui Geng and Bao Geng led their troops to constantly harass them in turn. Although it was not as stressful as Wen Chou's direct confrontation with the trapped camp, Gao Lan failed to break through the enemy's formation after several attacks.
The sound of fighting became more and more intense, and Wen Chou's troops on the front had begun to collapse. At this time, Yuan Shao's main army had also left the camp. Seeing this, Han Meng immediately led his troops to rush out and rush into the trapped camp from the side, easing Gao Shun's crisis.
, but the main force on Chen Mo's side has also been dispatched. Yang Ding led his troops to meet him and fought with Han Meng's troops.
Chen Mo stood on the high platform beside him, the flag officer kept waving the command flag, the sound of drums and trumpets continued, and Chen Mo's orders were continuously conveyed.
This is definitely the largest war since Chen Mo led the army. Although he has led large armies in the past, he has never directly commanded a battle of 60,000 people. Most of them were based on strategic layout and arrangements. Direct command like this
This is the first time that a 60,000-strong army has fought. This is a great test for the commander's command ability and on-the-spot adaptability. In such a large-scale battle, anything can happen on the battlefield. If you are not careful, you may lose everything.
.
For the first time, Chen Mo's brain felt tense. He calmly observed the battle situation. His rapidly rotating brain quickly evaluated the situation on each local battlefield and the enemy's weaknesses. Although the chess game was like a battlefield, it was just like that.
Such a large-scale battlefield is by no means comparable to the changes on the chessboard.
No one can guarantee victory. There are too many unpredictable factors on the battlefield. Chen Mo can only try to avoid possible mistakes to a minimum. It is impossible not to make any mistakes at all, but he can try to reduce them as much as possible.
Yuan Shao's army from the rear came up continuously. Although Wen Chou was defeated, the overall situation was made up for by the army that came up later. The trapped camp can determine the outcome of a battle of 100,000 people, but in a battle of 100,000 people, the trapped camp plays a small role.
The effect is not too big. Chen Mo asked Gao Shun to replace the trapped camp. There is no need for the trapped camp to be consumed in such meaningless consumption. He should maintain his physical strength and launch a fatal blow to the enemy at the critical moment.
Chen Mo was waiting for this opportunity to appear. Although he was a little conceited, he did not think that Yuan Shao could really command an army of one hundred thousand. For a commander, it might not be a good thing to barely command a scale that he could not control. He could only command a hundred thousand troops.
If you ask a general to command a thousand men, he may even cause the troops to be in chaos.
Even though Yuan Shao had a large number of generals who were good at fighting, they were only in charge of local wars.
On the other side, Yuan Shao stood on the shaft of his chariot, overlooking the overall situation. His orders were not as frequent as Chen Mo's. Firstly, he did not have as strong mental arithmetic ability as Chen Mo. Secondly, he also knew that it would be difficult for him to control an army of 100,000 people.
, so it is more about entrusting the battlefield to the generals, and being responsible for the general control.
People who understand the art of war can see that Yuan Shao's army is relatively scattered. Although it is one army, it is divided into ten groups. However, Chen Mo's army is clenched into fists. Although it is not as numerous as the opponent, it advances and retreats as one, facing
Yuan Shao, who had superior military strength, did not lose at all.
Tian Feng, Ju Sue, Xu You, Guo Tu, Shen Pei and other counselors all saw that if the two sides had equal strength, even if they were undefeated at this moment, they would probably be at a disadvantage.
More than 100,000 soldiers and horses from both sides fought at an extremely large scale. Even if they were surrounded by a plain terrain, it was difficult for Chen Mo and Yuan Shao who were standing on the command platform to see clearly the entirety of their own armies, let alone as the war progressed.
As time went by, both sides were already in a state of anxiety, and it was difficult to completely distinguish their own troops.
It lasted all morning, and by noon, the battle began to feel a little tired. The physical strength and spirit of the soldiers had begun to decline significantly. Although the fighting had not ended, the intensity had begun to ease.
If it continues like this, it will only be an invincible situation. But at this moment, Yuan Shao suddenly discovered that a group of people who suddenly came out of the opponent's army was quite brave. An army of tens of thousands of people unexpectedly suddenly
They were scattered. There were only a thousand men, but they easily tore apart Yuan's army. They fought back and forth among the troops led by Han Meng, and defeated Han Meng's troops in an instant.
Han Meng has been fighting on the front line since he rescued Wen Chou. The generals' physical strength was consumed the most. At this moment, the trapped camp who had been dormant in the rear and had not fought suddenly came out. Not to mention that Han Meng's army was exhausted at this moment.
, even if it is intact, I am afraid it is not much stronger than Wen Chou's troops, and it is naturally even more powerless to resist at this moment.
Under the command of Gao Shun, the trapped camp entered Han Meng's army and fought back and forth. As soon as they took action, they defeated Han Meng's battle formation and completely routed it.
The defeat of Han Meng's army seemed to be the beginning. The trapped camp that re-entered the battlefield was like a tireless beast, madly tearing apart the enemy into organized troops.
At this time, the gap between the commanders of the two sides became apparent. Although Chen Mo had a small number of troops, under Chen Mo's command, he tried to preserve the physical strength of his soldiers. However, Yuan Shao obviously did not have this subtle control ability. The control over the details of the army was at all levels.
In the hands of generals, it is impossible to decide the outcome of such a battle in a short time. Whoever can fight longer will be the final winner. But generals at all levels obviously cannot care about this, and they are trying their best.
Defeating the enemy also resulted in a great waste of physical energy for the soldiers.
Chen Mo, on the other hand, has been retaining his remaining strength. Although it was difficult at the beginning, as long as he was not attacked by a wave of enemies, as time went by, the advantage of Chen Mo's method of continuously retaining the soldiers' physical strength became apparent. The longer time went by, the more strength Chen Mo had.
The greater the advantage.
In fact, the officers and soldiers of the Yuan Army who were involved must have felt the deepest. They lacked endurance and became more and more desperate the more they fought. Even if they were exhausted, they could barely hold on. In the end, when the new force that Chen Mo had retained fell into the camp and returned to the battlefield, it became
This was the last straw that broke Yuan Jun's mind.
Even though Yuan's army had more troops, facing the increasingly morale Guanzhong Army, he felt powerless and frustrated, and was completely defeated by the trapped camp.
Won!
The moment the enemy camp tore apart Han Meng's army, the tight string in Chen Mo's heart suddenly relaxed. At this moment of the war, Yuan Shao was powerless. The commander of such a war, even Chen Mo, would not be able to do anything in this situation.
There will never be a moment when you feel relaxed.
"Chen Mo is a traitor, you have to accept your fate!" At the moment when Chen Mo relaxed, a cold arrow suddenly shot towards Chen Mo from the battlefield. At the same time, a group of troops broke through the siege of the Central Army and headed towards Chen Mo.
.
"Ding~" Dian Wei, who had been following Chen Mo, took a step forward, stood in front of Chen Mo, and swung his halberd to knock away the incoming arrow clusters.
Chen Mo looked at the enemy general who appeared not far away and had already entered his bodyguard. His eyes gradually became sharper. Looking at the unstoppable and brave general who easily entered his bodyguard, he pointed at this man and said:
"Who is this!?"
"Back to my lord, this person is Wen Chou. I don't know how he got here!" Ma Chao next to him had met Wen Chou before when he raided Yuan Shao's Liang Road and recognized this person.
"He is indeed a brave general!" With some appreciation, Chen Mo fought his way out of the thousands of troops and came straight towards him. The opponent's courage, courage and martial arts were all worthy of praise.
"Go and capture him!" Ma Chao got on his horse, saluted Chen Mo, then clapped his horse to greet Wen Chou.
Among the crowd, although Wen Chou was brave, Chen Mo's personal guards were all carefully selected and rigorously trained warriors. Even if Wen Chou was brave, he could not kill Chen Mo's personal guards at this moment.
.
Chen Mo shouted loudly: "General Wen, Yuan Shao's defeat has been determined, general, why didn't you surrender early!?"
"Bah!" Wen Chou drove away the surrounding soldiers with a spear, pointed at Chen Mo, and cursed: "Xia Qiu Shilang, how can you be so virtuous and capable that you are worthy of my surrender?"
Although Chen Mo had never shied away from his origins, when he heard this, his expression could not help but darken.
"Ma Chao, stand down!" Dian Wei has followed Chen Mo for many years, and naturally he doesn't want others to insult his lord. He roared loudly, got on his horse, and shouted to Ma Chao who had not yet rushed in, but he had already rushed out with a rough voice.
Echoing around the countryside: "You are a deer-headed, rat-eyed bastard with a mother and no father. Are you worthy of discussing your parentage with my lord?"
As he spoke, he had already rushed into the formation.
The guards around him knew that Dian Wei was powerful and quickly got out of the way, only blocking the soldiers and horses brought by Wen Chou.
"Ugly ghost, don't talk arrogantly!" Wen Gangyan was furious and raised his spear to stab him.
"Bang~"
Dian Wei wielded his two halberds and swung Wen Chou's spear away. A fierce murderous intent appeared on his ferocious face. He looked at Wen Chou and cursed: "With your crotchless appearance, how can you say that I'm ugly?"
!die!"
The two halberds were pressed down, and Wen Chou quickly held them up. The huge force made Wen Chou's arms numb, and the horse that sat down even screamed miserably and fell to its knees!
"Your horse is more aware of current affairs than you. You are not good at martial arts, and your head is not very easy to use. What's the use of it? How about I help you take it off!" As he spoke, an iron halberd was moved along the spear shaft.
Wen Chou's fingers holding the spear were all broken. No matter how difficult it was to hold the spear, Dian Wei threw the two halberds and jumped off the horse. He slapped the horse on the head as it wanted to get up, and directly drove the horse away.
Flip over.
Wen Chou was also unlucky. After fighting for a long time, he lost most of his strength. Seeing that he was defeated, he wanted to catch the thief first and capture the king first, and capture Chen Mo to reverse the defeat. Who knew that Chen Mo would have such a fierce general beside him? If it was normal,
He can still have a fight with Dian Wei, but now, with just his bravery, he is no match for Dian Wei, and he will be knocked down by Dian Wei's threesomes.
"You stupid idiot, I'm going to teach you how to speak today!" Wen Chou, who was sweating profusely in pain but refused to scream, was dragged off the horse and stepped on the opponent's head.
