Chapter 121 100,000 Viet Nam 5,000(1/2)
Pang Ming led twenty-five troops and headed straight for Zhao.
Zhang Beichen, on the other hand, slowed him down and took his elite Xuanwu Army, which had increased to 30,000 in recent years, and 220,000 other troops, to attack Zhao from another route.
…
Pang Ming's initial progress was very smooth. Before the tiger and leopard cavalry were transferred, the powerful combat power of Wei's soldiers was enough to defeat the enemy head-on. He conquered many cities in a row and gained momentum.
In front of their marching route is Jinyang City of Zhao State, which is a large city with strong defense and strong strength.
The generals suggested: "General, the city defense of Jinyang is strong, and Zhao's reinforcements must have arrived in Jinyang. Why don't we rest where we are and wait for the prime minister's army to attack, and the enemy will divide his troops to support us, and then we can continue the attack?"
Hearing his words, Pang Ming was immediately unhappy and said: "Are you looking down on me? In Jinyang, I can destroy you with just one hand!"
"Send the order, the whole army speeds up, and captures Jinyang before Zhang Beichen attacks, so that everyone can see whose expertise is in marching and fighting!"
Pang Ming's realm at this time has reached the pinnacle of the ninth realm of military strategists, and he is about to be promoted to semi-saint. With his consecutive victories, he is naturally proud and complacent.
…
Outside Jinyang City, Pang Ming arrived first with tens of thousands of elites.
Sure enough, the defenders of Jinyang City were already well prepared and the city was heavily fortified.
The subordinate once again suggested Pang Ming to wait for the army to join together, but Pang Ming said angrily: "I think you are timid! When going to war, we need to go all out in one go, then weaken again, and then be exhausted! Now that our morale is high, we must take advantage of the victory to attack!"
"
"Send the order and attack Jinyang City tomorrow!"
The next day, the elite troops led by Pang Ming began to attack Jinyang City. They attacked the city for three consecutive days without making any progress.
At this time, a subordinate found him.
"General!" the subordinate said, "the general's uncle is serving as a guard in Jinyang City. If the general is willing to give him a reward, he is willing to open the city gate at night to welcome our Wei army into the city!"
Pang Ming was anxious. He heard that Zhang Beichen had already led his troops to march towards the capital of Zhao State.
As soon as he heard the news, he was overjoyed and said: "Okay, if this matter comes to pass, I will personally ask the King of Wei for a reward for him!"
[Pang Ming contacted the defenders in Jinyang City, and after promising huge profits, the other party also betrayed Zhao and secretly opened the city gate.]
A few days later, it was night.
Today is the day that Pang Ming agreed with the spy. He made the soldiers eat well and get enough sleep early in preparation for the night attack tonight!
When the appointed time arrived, Pang Ming saw the city's flames soaring into the sky. Immediately afterwards, a city gate was opened!
Pang Ming was overjoyed and said: "Their granary has been burned and the city is in chaos. All the officers and men quickly follow me to attack the city! Capture Jinyang!"
"Kill!" The Wei army took advantage of the darkness and charged into Jinyang City.
However, not long after Pang Ming led his men in, they discovered that there was no commotion in the city as they imagined. Instead, the defenders were heavily guarded and seemed to have been prepared!
Outside the city, the sound of horse hooves was heard again. Cavalry were encircling the city from the outside. There were defenders inside the city. They were surrounded from both sides!
"General, we have fallen into a trap!" the subordinate said in panic.
"Don't mess up!" Pang Ming was considered a famous general after all. He knew that he had fallen into the enemy's scheme because of his impatience, but he was still able to remain calm.
"Let the soldiers form a square formation and fight out from the city gate!" When Pang Ming entered the city just now, people took control of the city gate, so his retreat was not blocked.
The soldiers immediately formed a strategy, guarding the crossbows on the city wall while facing the enemy in front.
Pang Ming was riding at the front. He had already seen the enemy's cavalry cutting off the back road.
Xinnan shouted: "Pang Ming, where are you running? Today is the day you die!"
Pang Ming showed no fear and snorted coldly: "You only have tens of thousands of people trying to stop me? I will come when I want and leave when I want!"
"Kill me!"
The soldiers of Wei were killed and killed!
Shinan also commanded the tiger and leopard cavalry to charge and kill.
Two elite corps collided!
The soldiers of Wei were really strong and did not retreat at all in the face of the cavalry charge. They held their shields sideways and raised their spears.
Sure enough, the first charge of the Tiger and Leopard Cavalry was blocked.
Pang Ming looked proud, but he discovered that the second wave of charges from the Tiger and Leopard Cavalry had already followed!
"Block!" The shield wall of Wei Wu's military formation appeared and was broken through by the cavalry.
Then comes the third wave of charges!
Each time is faster than the last time, and each time is more fierce than the last time!
In order to achieve the effect of this fish scale formation, Zhao Yun personally trained the Tiger and Leopard Cavalry for half a year!
Wei Wuzu's vanguard finally couldn't stop it, and was torn open by the cavalry. The tiger and leopard cavalry directly killed through the entire phalanx!
Once the infantry formation is broken, it will no longer be a match for the cavalry.
Pang Ming saw that the Wei soldiers he was proud of were slaughtered like chickens and ducks in front of the tiger and leopard cavalry!
At this time, the defenders in Jinyang City also came out and were surrounded by two armies. Pang Ming's army had no way to escape!
"I was careless!" Pang Ming looked up to the sky and sighed. If he fought steadily and waited for the army to arrive before attacking, even if the enemy's tiger and leopard cavalry were fierce, he would not be driven to a dead end!
But now, his large army has no time to support him, and Zhang Beichen's army is still in another direction!
"Pang Ming, suffer death!" Xinnan came over with his own tailgate and killed him.
Pang Ming fought bloody battles, but was unable to defeat the four hands with his two fists, and was eventually surrounded and killed by the crowd!
…
[Pang Ming underestimated the enemy and advanced rashly. He fell into the enemy's scheme and was surrounded and killed by the enemy. The Wei army lost 100,000 troops and the entire Wei army was wiped out!]
Zhang Beichen could only shake his head when he saw the news. He reminded Pang Ming, but the narrow-minded Pang Ming thought that he looked down on him.
You know, the current Zhao State is not the former Zhao State. Zhao Yun ascended the throne and proclaimed himself emperor in the last simulation, and the strength of Zhao Jun is no longer the Zhao Jun in Pang Ming's impression!
Once Pang Ming died, Zhang Beichen could only send people to receive the hundreds of thousands of remnants of the Wei army. Next, the only ones to attack the Zhao army were his entire army.
…
After Pang Ming was eliminated, Zhao State was able to respond to Zhang Beichen's attack with all its strength.
Zhao Yun directly asked all the tiger and leopard cavalry and other elite soldiers he had trained to come over to fight Zhang Beichen.
At this time, due to the limited national power of each country, Zhao's Tiger and Leopard Cavalry only had more than 20,000 people, while Zhang Beichen's Xuanwu Army had a larger number.
Zhang Beichen led his troops forward and reached outside the capital of Zhao State.
On the plain, the two armies took up positions and prepared for a showdown.
Zhao Yun does not want to fight a city defense battle, so that her cavalry will not be able to take advantage. Zhang Beichen's infantry will have an even greater advantage!
"Zhang Qing, I have learned your cavalry tactics, let me see what else you can do to deal with this cavalry!" Zhao Yun went on a personal expedition and personally directed the war.
…
On the battlefield, two armies faced each other.
Zhang Beichen rode a horse and looked from a distance, only to see Zhao Yun riding a horse across from him. She was wearing a silver armor, her long legs tightly locked on the horse's body, and she looked heroic.
"King Zhao!" Zhang Beichen shouted, "As long as you surrender to the Kingdom of Wei, the King of Wei will protect you from glory and wealth throughout your life!"
Zhao Yun said coldly: "Don't speak too early. Zhang Beichen, if you lose, come to Zhao country, I will guarantee you a lifetime of prosperity and wealth!"
"Then let's begin!" Zhang Beichen stopped talking nonsense and ordered the drums to be played.
Behind Zhao Yun, the square formation was also ready.
The two of them unanimously placed their elites at the front of the phalanx, because they all knew that the outcome of these tens of thousands of elites was decisive to the outcome of the war!
…
"Tiger and Leopard Cavalry, follow me and fight in!" Zhao Yun took the lead with her spear in hand.
Behind him, 20,000 tigers and leopards rode forward at lightning speed.
Zhang Beichen calmly commanded: "Xuanwu Army, form up!"
I saw the first row of his heavy infantry all putting down their heavy shields to block. The cavalry hit the shield wall, fell over, and were quickly stabbed to death.
But the cavalry behind were still charging.
"Spike the horse!" Zhang Beichen continued to shout.
I saw rows of spears thrust out of the infantry square. These spears were twice as long as ordinary spears!
It is actually inconvenient to use, but it has special effects when arrayed against cavalry. This kind of spear can attack the enemy before the cavalry comes into contact, and is more lethal to horses than to people!
In the first two waves of charges, the Tiger and Leopard Cavalry did not gain an advantage, so Zhao Yun continued to lead the charge.
The third wave of cavalry followed closely, and the first level of the Xuanwu Army's shield wall was finally broken.
Zhao Yun was overjoyed and was about to lead her men to kill them through the military formation.
At this time, the infantry in the rear immediately replenished and formed a shield wall again!
