Chapter 51: The ambition to be trapped will lead to death but not life
Looking indifferently at the relatively neat enemy troops on the opposite side, Gao Shun pulled out the long sword from his waist with an expressionless face, swung the sword directly at the enemy troops, and shouted coldly: "Fall into camp, disperse, wolf formation."
“Ding dong, Gao Shun’s skill ‘Entrapment’ is activated.”
"Entrapment: Gao Shun's unique skill, which stimulates the general's soldiers' morale, force, physical strength, cooperation, and tacit understanding to increase... Gao Shun's commander +4, force +2. If this skill is combined with the legendary troops trained by Gao Shun himself, Launched when fighting in a trapped camp, with the same number of people, it is invincible."
“Ding Dong, Commander Gao Shun is 88, and his force is 89. “Entrapment” is activated, his commander is +4, his force is +2. Currently, Gao Shun’s commander is 92, and his force is 91.”
“The ambition to be trapped in the battle will lead to death but not life.”
The roar of the eight hundred soldiers trapped in the camp was simply louder than the eight thousand people!
The trapped soldiers holding strong shields and wearing heavy armor immediately dispersed after receiving Gao Shun's order. They formed groups of five and were divided into 160 small formations. Like scattered wolves, they plunged directly into the enemy's army. In the formation.
Most of the Wang family's army are new soldiers. It is their first time to face a life-or-death battle. It is not easy to keep the camp together, let alone face the elites who have fought hundreds of battles.
The trapped camp is not only elite, but also equipped with sharp blades and strong armor. First of all, the weapons of the Wang family soldiers cannot break the defense of the trapped camp. Secondly, the quality of the weapons is also much inferior. After several collisions, the weapons will basically break.
The five members of the trap camp formed a battle formation, cooperating with each other and killing the enemy together. Facing the well-equipped trap camp, the five thousand recruits of the Wang family were almost powerless to resist.
Before the soldiers of the former army could react, a large number of them were directly killed. After they reacted, they found that their weapons could not penetrate the opponent's armor at all, and their weapons were not as good as trapping them.
The battlefield soon became filled with mourning, and there were broken limbs and broken arms everywhere, just like the **** of Shura.
Wang Shichong looked at the one-sided battlefield and the raging trap camp in horror. He couldn't believe this was true. He said in disbelief: "How is it possible? What kind of army is this?!"
Even those who were laughing just now can no longer laugh. This is not a war, it is simply a massacre on one side!
The wolf formation of the trap camp consists of five people. The division of labor is clear. Those who chop the neck only chop the neck, and those who chop the legs only chop the legs. The sword skills of the elite trap warriors who have been trained for a long time are indeed ruthless. There are heads and limbs everywhere. The scene is very horrifying. people, which greatly frightened the enemy.
In battlefield combat, generally when one's own side suffers more than one-third of the damage from the battle, morale will be greatly reduced. If the damage exceeds half, deserters will easily occur.
Facing the extremely ruthless soldiers of the trapped camp, who were like killing machines, the former army finally became timid and dared not face the trapped camp. Under the leadership of individual "role models", a large-scale rout soon occurred.
Looking at the increasing number of deserters, some of which were even attacking his own formation, Wang Shichong sighed and coldly ordered: "Archers, prepare, aim at the deserters and release arrows."
Shan Xiongxin couldn't bear it when he heard this. Although he wanted to stop him, he still lowered his head. His father-in-law did the right thing. Only by using this kind of iron-blooded method can we stop the deserters.
After thousands of arrows were fired, they immediately killed hundreds of deserters. The blood and death greatly frightened the deserters. Seeing this, Wang Shichong struck while the iron was hot and shouted: "Those who advance, kill one person and be rewarded with tens of thousands of coins, and those who retreat, be killed without mercy." amnesty."
Wang Shichong's ruthlessness shocked all the deserters.
No matter how powerful the trapped camp is, there are only 800 people. There will always be times when you are tired, but if you retreat, you will be shot to death by your own people.
In order to avoid being shot to death by their own people and to get generous rewards, most of the fleeing soldiers turned back and continued to fight against the trapped camp.
People can always burst out with amazing power under the temptation of interests. However, although the temptation of interests can bring people power, it is also limited, and this power is far from enough to overwhelm the trapped camp.
Looking at the dwindling numbers of the front army, Wang Shichong's eyes became even colder, and he coldly ordered to the left and right: "Move over all the archers from each army."
Gao Shun immediately noticed the opponent's troop deployment. After Wang Shichong gathered all the archers together, Gao Shun made a prompt decision and immediately changed his strategy and ordered: "Fall into camp, gather together, and prepare the Xuanwu Formation."
As soon as he finished speaking, the one hundred and sixty small crowd that had spread out immediately gathered together again and formed a neat circular formation.
“Archers obey orders and aim at the enemy.”
Shan Xiongxin, who was standing next to Wang Shichong, was shocked when he heard this. He wondered if he had heard wrong. His father-in-law was planning to kill the eight hundred elite Yanmen Army at the expense of some of his own people.
“Father-in-law, are you crazy? Our soldiers are still there?” Shan Xiongxin shouted in disbelief.
Shan Xiongxin did not stop him before because Wang Shichong shot deserters, but now his own soldiers were fighting **** battles in the Wang family, but died under the arrows of his own people. Shan Xiongxin could not accept such a way of death.
Wang Shichong did not answer Shan Xiongxin, but ordered lightly: "Shoot!"
“Fall into camp, raise your shield.”
All the soldiers raised their shields at the same time, and the circular shield array immediately formed a steel fortress, leaving no gaps.
“Ah, help”
Arrows that were as dense as raindrops in the sky were constantly hitting each other, but none of the soldiers in the trap camp were hit. However, most of the Wang family soldiers outside the shield formation in the trap camp died under the arrows of their own people, and they died with their eyes open.
Looking at the enemy troops who were motionless after several rounds of shooting, Wang Shichong turned pale, and finally murmured: "How is this possible? When did the Yanmen Army gain such an elite division!" Shan Xiongxin, on the other hand, looked ashen-faced. Looking at his father-in-law Wang Shichong, he felt a little chill in his heart. Father-in-law, you are really too cruel!
After hearing the sound of arrows hitting the shield, Gao Shun immediately gave the order, saying: "Get into formation and advance!"
The rain of arrows keeps coming, but the trapped camp is like a moving fortress, facing the rain of arrows, constantly approaching the arrow array.
Wang Xiong on one side was stunned by the ferocity of the trapped camp. When he saw the trapped camp approaching our formation, he immediately shouted: "Don't let them get close, shoot the arrows quickly, shoot the arrows quickly!"
Several other family heads saw this and quickly exclaimed.
"Shut up, I don't see that bows and arrows are useless!" Wang Renze roared on the side.
Several family heads were shocked by his momentum, but they did not refute
"The archers retreated to the rear, and ordered the left and right armies to outflank them from both sides!" Wang Shichong was not affected by these people and continued to issue orders calmly.
After a while, I saw the messenger returning in panic.
“Report, General Fang Jie, he, he said”
"What did he say?" Wang Shichong frowned and had a very bad feeling in his heart.
“General Fang Jie said: That idiot Wang Shichong wants me to be his cannon fodder? No way!”
When Wang Shichong heard this, he was furious. He kicked the messenger away and cursed: "Short-sighted man, if my Wang family is defeated, his five thousand soldiers will be able to survive alone."
This time Wang Shichong really misunderstood Fang Jie. After receiving the order to attack, Fang Jie immediately wanted to take his men to meet Gao Shun, but was stopped by Dongfang Sheng, so he did not go out.
“Instruct the left army and the center army to attack, surround the enemy on the left and right, and prepare a thousand cavalry to charge.”
After the Qin family monopolized the horse business in Yanmen, Bingzhou could no longer buy war horses except from the Qin family.
The Wang family and the five major families purchased war horses from Youzhou and Jizhou, and after years of preparation, they only equipped a thousand cavalry, and there was only one horse per man, so naturally they were extremely valuable and were used to equip the most elite family soldiers.
Yue Fei saw that the enemy cavalry was already in formation, but his own cavalry was motionless. He thought Qin Hao was still young and not proficient in battle formations, so he was going to use infantry to fight the cavalry, so he reminded him:
“Young Master, the enemy cavalry is about to be dispatched. Although the trapped camp is elite, they are all infantry. It will be too weak to carry the cavalry. Yifei thinks it’s better to let the cavalry dispatch.”
Qin Hao laughed when he heard this and said: "Brother Yue, there are many things you don't understand when you first join the Yanmen Army. Qin Hao will not make such low-level mistakes as infantry fighting cavalry. General Gao Shun's trap is different from that of ordinary infantry. He will definitely make it." It’s a surprise for us.”
Seeing the mobilization of enemy troops, Gao Shun knew that Wang Shichong was preparing to rely on his numerical advantage to first surround the trapped camp, then use cavalry to break up the trapped camp's formation, and then encircle and kill them.
Although the captured camp is elite, it only has 800 people. Faced with the siege of more than 10,000 people, and it is coordinated by infantry and cavalry, if the formation breaks up, it will only be a matter of time before the entire army is annihilated.
Wang Shichong's plan is not a vicious one, but it's a pity that he met Gao Shun. Will Gao Shun, who knows Wang Shichong's intentions, still fall into the plan?
Obviously impossible.
“Cavalry charge!” Wang Shichong shouted.
The Wang family's thousand light cavalry quickly rushed towards the trapped camp, while Gao Shun responded calmly and immediately ordered: "Prepare the hand axe!"
In addition to long swords, large shields and armor, each soldier in the trapped camp is equipped with three pure iron hand axes on his waist, which are used for throwing and are specially used to deal with cavalry.
When a thousand cavalrymen approached the trapped camp fifty steps, Gao Shun immediately ordered: "Surf!"
Eight hundred hand axes were thrown at a thousand cavalry at the same time. The distance of fifty steps was not far, and the cavalry's target was large. In order to increase the impact, the formation was very dense.
The traps were very accurate. In the first round, they either hit horses or cavalry, and nearly 300 cavalry were eliminated in one go.
These thousand cavalry are the lifeblood of the Wang family and the capital of the Wang family's rise. They were suddenly reduced by 300. When Wang Shichong saw this, he was horrified and immediately shouted: "Disperse the formation, disperse quickly!"
But it was too late, Gao Shun smiled coldly and continued: "Second round, vote."
Another round of 800 hand axes fell in the dense array of enemy troops, and more than 200 cavalrymen fell again. In the third round, the enemy troops had dispersed, but the 800 hand axes still took away the lives of more than 100 people. .
At a distance of fifty steps and at the speed of a cavalry charge, the trapped camp could only perform three rounds of throwing at most.
After three rounds of throwing, there were now less than 300 of the Wang family's thousand cavalry. Moreover, the formation was scattered and the momentum had been exhausted. They could no longer threaten the heavy infantry in the trapped camp.
【Second update, please recommend and collect. Some readers said that Guiguzi was a strategist, and setting his identity as a great Confucian was disrespectful to Guiguzi. Liu Xiang will explain here that Guiguzi was a strategist, and the great Confucian could only have a superficial identity. Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty deposed all schools of thought. In the Eastern Han Dynasty, when Confucianism was extremely powerful, how could other schools of thought stand up openly? Ruka explained it at the beginning, so friends, please read carefully.
