Chapter 530, falling thunder(1/2)
The weather in midsummer and June changes rapidly.
The sky was still so hot that it was so clear that it was so hot that it suddenly became numerous. Suddenly, countless dark clouds rolled and rushed, coming from all directions, piled up in piles, becoming denser, like thousands of troops coming from the ground.
The sky suddenly became very low and dark, as if it had absorbed enough ink.
The distant mountains that were about to be covered were covered in gray, and the undulating mountains could no longer be distinguished; the soldiers of the Han and Wei sides who were about to fight were suppressed and breathless.
A hint of coolness appeared in the world and spread into everyone's hearts.
I saw the flags that were originally exposed to the sun, and the tail slabs began to sway slightly, pulling the flags slowly stretching until they were furious in the wind.
From breeze to strong winds, it is almost a seamless transition.
The lush branches and leaves on the gentle slopes of the low hills were also whispered by the wind, and they were the first to play the prelude to the war.
"Click!"
A lightning pierced the dark clouds in the sky, causing the sky and the earth to illuminate suddenly.
Zheng Pu, who was standing under the flag behind, waved his flag high in his hand at this time.
"Boom~"
The sound of falling thunder resounded throughout the world.
On the side of the big flag, in front of the cowhide drum, the military man who had been staring at the flag in Zheng Pu's hand and holding the drumsticks with bare hands suddenly smashed the two drumsticks.
"Dong!"
"Dong!Dong!"
The raindrops as big as soybeans are shaking and falling from the sky with thousands of troops.
Some fell on the dry ground, smashing the dust into a small pit; some fell on the streams in the valley, stirring up ripples. The heavy rain came extremely violently, and in an instant, it seemed like gods and demons were thrown around in the sky, spreading thousands of threads from the dark clouds like ink, gradually sewing the heaven and earth.
A drop fell on Liu Yin's eyebrows in front of the Yuli Formation. The splashing Mercury made him instinctively close his eyes.
But his right hand, at the moment the drum sounded, smoothly held the handle of the knife with the knife on his waist and the head.
"Bang clang~"
The sharp blade unsheathed pointed forward, and his eyes opened again were full of sighs, and he roared, "Fight!"
"war!"
"Fight! Fight!"
The passionate voices of the Han soldiers were rushing to compete with the sound of falling thunder; the neat and firm footsteps sounded, competing with the sound of heavy rain.
The Yuli Formation infantry of the Wei army opposite were also roaring like thunder and came to die.
It seemed that the tiny humans insisted on fighting to the death, angering the master of heaven and earth.
"Click!"
The silver snake danced wildly, and white lights tore the dark sky, as if God was waving sharp blades to intimidate.
It may seem that the ruler of heaven and earth intends to help the two armies die.
"Boom~"
The thunder rumbling sound made, trembling with all things, as if God was beating a drum in the air, inspiring people to die.
Finally, two armies collided.
If the rumbling thunder resounds throughout the valley, it will also be like the roaring waves hitting the mountains.
The spear and the ring-headed sword flew firmly, the short spear threw the gun and flew away, the dull shouts and short roars made the mountains and rivers tremble.
First, the tiger and wolf army, inspired by the belief of the old capital, went to death with the unbeaten record of victory and vowing to tear the opponent apart; first, they came from Huai and Si thousands of miles away, and were still alive until today after countless wars. They also wanted to completely end the nightmare of "the great troubles of Wei" with their fierce and fearless tyranny.
"war!"
"Kill~~"
The sword and shield hit, the spear tip slashed, the hideous face, the bloody sword and spear, the low howl, the smell of blood, the entire valley was enveloped and destroyed by the tragic aura of this primitive fighting.
"Boom~"
The sound of falling thunder and war drums urged.
"Woooo~~"
The strong wind whistled and whistled the horn.
The downpour of rainstorms stirred up on the drums, and the lives of soldiers on both sides withered on the sharp edges.
The two sides fought to the death like this, without giving in a single step; the corpses were filled with scattered swords and spears all over the ground, and blood flowed happily with the rain.
But under the Wei army's flag, Sun Li's face gradually became ferocious.
Although the dense rain lines made his vision hazy, it did not prevent him from seeing that the two wings of his army were slowly disintegrating.
Zheng Pu, who was under the Han army's flag, looked solemn, and he grabbed it with one hand without realizing it, and was on the shoulders of the soldiers holding the huge ox horn.
The Niuke is the command of the Western Liang Iron Cavalry.
During the deployment of troops before the war, he asked Liu Yin's troops to center and resist the Huai Si elites of the Wei army head-on. He did not ask Liu Yin to defeat or kill the Huai Si elites, but only his sage army could maintain the front line of his army without breaking down.
The left wing of the Yuli Formation is served by Jufu.
He also did not need to strive forward and took it as his mission to defeat the enemy's formation, but must have spare energy to deal with the side attack of the Wuhuan cavalry of the Qianhong tribe and rushed to the formation; while Wang Ping's troops on the right wing had no scruples, just rushed forward.
It is different from the Wei army's deployment of gathering cavalry in one place.
Zheng Pu asked the three thousand Western Liang Iron Cavalry to divide them into two parts and stand together.
However, Xu Zhi, who was on the left wing, had more cavalry commanders on Zhang Te on the right, and about two thousand cavalrymen.
Because he was sure to win, even if the soldiers of the Jufu division were still mainly Banyan Man, the former killing tribes of the Western Qiang and rushing to tell them that they were "not going south"!
With stepping against the cavalry, Banhua has very sufficient experience.
Especially when fighting against nomadic tribes rather than Han cavalry.
Zheng Pu felt that with the help of Xu Zhi's two thousand Western Liang cavalry, Jufu tribe was enough to restrain the Wuhuan cavalry of Qianhong tribe, winning the time for the right-wing Wang Ping tribe and Zhang Te to tear the Wei army's front.
Yes, the decisive point of the Han army and the weakness that Zheng Pu knew were Zhou Dang's troops on the flank of the Wei army.
Because all of those troops were soldiers of Yongliang, the Han army had long been defeated by the Han army in previous wars.
Moreover, Wang Ping's troops had always been under the Prime Minister's Central Army.
The soldiers under their command were separated from the "Wudang Army" called "Flying Army", and their predecessor was the Five Qing Qiang tribes.
In the past, whenever the Qing Qiang Army had a vacancy, the barbarians would run around and tell, and they would be proud of being recruited. From the fact that these soldiers were happy when they heard the battle, they could tell that their blood was brave.
And Wang Ping also did not disappoint Zheng Pu's expectations.
He had just fought for less than half an hour, and when the Jufu tribe on the left wing had just gained the advantage, he attacked Zhou Dang tribe's front line to a shaky point.
This also made Qian Hong, who had not been attacking for a long time, feel a little anxious.
Although the gentle slope he led the cavalry before the war was located on the side of Jufu and could not rush to Wang Ping to reverse the disadvantage for Zhou Dang's troops, he could rush to the left wing of the Han army from the side!
As long as you seize the defeat of Zhou Dang's troops and take the lead in defeating the left wing of the Han army with the advantage of more powerful troops, wouldn't it be locked in the battle?
The situation is urgent, what are you waiting for!
Qian Hongxin was puzzled and thought about whether to attack without waiting for Sun Li's order.
But what he didn't know was that the reason why Sun Li didn't give orders at this time was because he knew that the decision to let the Wuhuan cavalry attack was a move of "if you fail, you will be virtuous."
He had long noticed that the Han army divided the Western Liang Iron Cavalry into two groups.
He also knew why Zheng Pu did not lead the cavalry to attack when the left wing of the Han army also gained an advantage.
The Han army had too few troops.
If the Western Liang cavalry is sent out first, the guards at the Great Crown and Golden Drum will be left unattended, and the Wuhuan cavalry will be attacked and killed by the Wuhuan cavalry.
Once the Wuhuan cavalry attacked, Zheng Pu no longer had such concerns.
It will also make the Western Liang Iron Cavalry move according to the situation.
Let me ask, Zhou Dang’s troops are already shaking. If he ushered in the attack of more than a thousand Western Liang cavalry, how could he still defend the front line?
Can Qian Hong's tribe break through the obstacles of the Western Liang Iron Cavalry, chop down the Han army's flags and kill Scarpu before Zhou Dang's tribe was defeated?
Sun Li thinks this is unlikely.
Therefore, he assigned more than a thousand Huai Si soldiers from the central army to support Zhou Dang’s troops.
Because I found that the battle situation in the middle lane was also not ideal.
The front of the middle road with a total of 6,000 elite Huai Si was unable to break through the front line of only 4,000 soldiers of the Han army. Even if he sent two thousand soldiers to defeat him, he still could not make a contribution with twice the advantage of the enemy.
Therefore, despite Qian Hong's repeated requests for the attack with a horn, he still let the Wuhuan cavalry hang their troops.
He was waiting for the fighter plane to appear.
Or rather, he was waiting for the change of the battle situation: whether the Han army's central army could not support it first, or whether Zhou Dang's troops were in danger again.
Another half an hour passed.
