Chapter 747 Strange Ending
The Lequan army began to advance, but the Pingzhou army stood by.
Shang Ji is now playing the role of being forced to fight at night, so he can't be too active. If the leader rushes up now, it's not logical, and it's hard to say whether he will scare Kuangzhang back.
Therefore, Shang Ji could only order the whole army to stand by, pretending to be cautious, and attracting the enemy to leave the city further away.
"Woooooo~~~~"
As the sound of the horn became more and more urgent, the distance between the Lequan Army and the Pingzhou Army became closer and closer. Finally, the Lequan Army began to charge!
The first to dispatch were the crossbowmen of the Lequan Army, and the arrows rained down on the Pingzhou Army.
The giant shield soldiers at the front immediately linked their iron shields together to form a shield wall, raining down most of the arrows.
Almost at the same time that the Lequan army attacked, the bow troops of the Pingzhou army also began to counterattack. In fact, the Lequan Army had long been within the range of the crossbowmen in Pingzhou. Even Huang Zhong's sun-shooting soldiers dared not compete with Xingyao's strong bow at night, let alone the Lequan City's archers.
It's just the same reason as before, Shang Ji was afraid of frightening Kuangzhang, and specially ordered that only the Lequan army can attack after attacking.
But even so, Lequan City's side immediately fell into decline. The arrows of Xingyao's strong bow could easily shoot through the heavy armor of the Lequan army, but the crossbowmen of the Lequan army were helpless against the giant shields of the giant shield soldiers.
For a while, the Pingzhou army achieved remarkable results, but the Lequan army had little success.
In this regard, Kuang Zhang expressed his calmness. The confrontation with the Pingzhou Army these days has made him aware of the sharpness of the Pingzhou Army. Even if Lequan City has several times the force advantage in conventional combat, he is still not sure to win the Pingzhou Army, otherwise he would not use the Phantom Guard.
With the waving of several command flags, the Lequan army started a new movement. The three phalanxes approached against the rain of arrows in a semi-encircled manner, and the middle phalanx was commanded by Kuang Zhang himself, facing off against the middle army of the Pingzhou Army.
Kuangzhang knew very well that it would not be a big deal to win against the Pingzhou army, so his thinking was very clear, to create a high-intensity battle as soon as possible, and then launch the phantom guard at the critical moment to launch a fatal blow!
The infantry began to charge, and the cavalry on both sides of the phalanx also began to circle around in an attempt to break through from the side.
On the other hand, the Pingzhou Army mobilized its troops tit for tat. Generally speaking, although the Lequan Army had a relatively high strength advantage, it was far behind in terms of army quality, and was defeated by the Pingzhou Army.
Kuang Zhang was not in a hurry, on the contrary he looked calm and relaxed. This was expected, and he would be surprised if the Pingzhou army couldn't gain an advantage in a head-on confrontation.
"Pass down the order to send more troops, and we must mobilize all the enemy troops!"
After observing the battlefield for a while, Kuang Zhang continued to give orders. Only when all the troops are put into the battlefield can the phantom guard play a greater role.
A few more flags were waved, and more Lequan troops entered the battlefield, and there were sounds of fighting everywhere under the night. Due to the restriction of the night, a small number of troops have fallen into chaos at this time,
It's just not very conspicuous in the big environment.
After fighting for more than half an hour, Kuangzhang took a look at the battle situation and felt that if he did not activate the phantom guard Lequan City, the whole army would be in danger of collapse, so he stopped hesitating and clapped his hands solemnly.
A general who had been guarding Kuangzhang's side immediately understood and commanded the soldiers to blow a huge firework into the sky. Fireworks are so prominent in the night sky that you can't help but notice them!
The fireworks ignited, and almost instantly, the Pingzhou Army experienced large-scale chaos, and the rhythm of the original victories came to a halt. Soon, the scope of chaos became wider and wider, and the Pingzhou Army at the forefront began to retreat.
You can even vaguely see the flames burning behind the Pingzhou Army, Kuangzhang smiled slightly when he saw this, Huanwei finally lived up to expectations and successfully caused chaos within the Pingzhou Army.
"Pass the order, the whole army will attack, and defeat the enemy in one fell swoop!"
To clean up his mood, Kuangzhang pulled out the sword from his waist and shouted.
"Kill!"
The morale of the Lequan army soared immediately, and launched a full-scale attack on the Pingzhou army. On the other hand, the Pingzhou Army changed its invincible heroic posture just now, and began to retreat steadily. On the way to retreat, there were still many armors and weapons abandoned, a typical state of throwing away armor and armor!
Immediately afterwards, the Pingzhou Army was defeated!
Kuangzhang waved his fist excitedly. This man is shrewd, but he is easy to get carried away. In history, it took him fifty days to destroy the country of Yan, and then he began to let himself go. As a result, he was driven out again by the Yan State Rebel Army. Although Yan State continued to weaken for decades, Yan State finally managed to survive.
Kuangzhang in the beacon also inherited this shortcoming. Seeing that the Pingzhou army began to be defeated on a large scale, Kuangzhang did not suspect fraud at all. The main reason is that he is too confident and trusts the ability of Huan Wei too much.
Fearing that the Pingzhou army would retreat safely, Kuangzhang immediately commanded the entire army to cover up and kill them, and even the abandoned camp of the Pingzhou army was too late to occupy. For Kuangzhang, the vital strength to kill the Pingzhou Army is the most important, and it is not too late to clean up some property after the battle.
"Kill, kill quickly!"
Kuangzhang brandished his sword and personally led the 50,000 elite Lequan army to hunt down the enemy.
The battle was gratifying, and the flags, armor, weapons, etc. discarded by the Pingzhou Army were all along the way. It seems that the Pingzhou Army is really at the end of its rope.
However, if Kuangzhang could calm down and observe carefully, he would find that there were many armors and weapons abandoned on the road, but there were very few corpses of Pingzhou soldiers.
If he can observe more carefully, he will find that these armors and weapons are all low-level goods, not the standard equipment of the Pingzhou Army at all!
The complacent Kuangzhang couldn't find these anymore, he was immersed in the excitement of defeating the enemy.
"My lord, the pursuit has already exceeded fifty miles. The night is dark and the situation ahead is unclear. Why don't we retreat first!"
After chasing for a while, one of Kuang Zhang's generals advised him.
"No, I failed to seriously damage the main force of the enemy army. Withdrawing the army at this time is tantamount to letting the tiger go back to the mountain. It will be difficult to find such a good opportunity in the future!"
Kuangzhang flatly rejected his subordinates' suggestions and insisted on continuing to pursue.
However, after continuing to pursue for less than ten miles, Kuangzhang, who was in high spirits, was suddenly covered by a rain of arrows.
This wave of arrow rain was extremely violent and swift, and many of the 50,000 fine cavalry under Kuang Zhang's subordinates were killed on the spot. Before Kuangzhang could react, the surrounding flames burst into flames, surrounded by dense torches.
"No, I fell for it!"
If Kuangzhang didn't understand what happened at this time, he would be a famous general of Qi State in vain.
"Retreat, retreat quickly!"
Before he had time to think carefully, Kuangzhang quickly ordered the army to retreat, but it has reached this point, how can Kuangzhang withdraw if he wants to? It's true that the top generals in the Pingzhou Army are eating nothing!
Gao Xiang and Yang Cheng each led five thousand black-armored Xuanqi and charged out from the slanting stab, blocking Kuangzhang's retreat. Zhao Yun led ten thousand silver dragon cavalry to intercept from behind.
On both sides are ten thousand Xingyao strong bows and ten thousand sun shooting soldiers. Liu Meng and Huang Zhong each led 5,000 elite cavalry to support the crossbowmen on both sides.
That's right, it was Huang Zhong and Liu Meng.
Since it has been predicted that Kuangzhang will launch an attack in the near future, of course Shang Ji will not let the two main combat forces idle there. Although the main army did not arrive in time, Huang Zhong and Liu Meng traveled lightly, and the journey from Anxin and Anguang to Lequan only took an hour!
Seeing that there were enemy troops all around, Kuang Zhang frowned first, and then relaxed it again.
Regardless of the persuasion of the generals under his command, he rode out of the army alone, and a loud voice sounded: "This general Kuang Zhang, is the enemy leader Shang Ji here?"
"I will be here, what can I learn?"
Shang Ji responded and also came out. It's just that compared with Kuangzhang alone, Shang Ji was much more cautious, followed by two generals Guo Biao and Dian Wei.
No one can tell what Kuangzhang's strength is, and Shang Ji doesn't want to capsize in the gutter because of being a hero.
"This battle will be defeated, but the general's defeat is not clear. If the general can solve this general's confusion, the general will order all the troops to surrender to your army!"
"General Kuangzhang is talking about Huanwei?" Shang Ji said with a smile on the corner of his mouth.
He was not afraid that this was Kuangzhang's ploy to delay time. The army that ambushed Kuangzhang was only about 50,000 in total, and the remaining ace troops including Shurawei and 50,000 Black Armored Xuanqi were dealing with the remaining enemy troops.
In the dark of night, the enemy army chased and ran for dozens of miles, and the various ministries basically lost the ability to communicate and cooperate. In this case, when encountering a few ace troops, they either die or are captured without a fight.
Hearing the name Huanwei from Shang Ji's mouth, Kuangzhang suddenly showed a bitter smile: "I was too conceited, thinking that no one in this world could see through Huanwei, I didn't expect it, I didn't expect it!"
"Although the phantom guard is weird and unpredictable, but unfortunately, this general has a great talent who is dedicated to restraining the phantom guard!"
"So you just use your tricks and set a trap for me?"
"If that's not the case, I'm afraid it will be difficult to defeat the general in a short time!"
Shang Ji cupped his hands, but he couldn't hide the smug look on his face. It would be fine if it was someone else, but it was Kuang Zhang who defeated him, which has special meaning for Shang Ji, and the joy in his heart far exceeded expectations.
In fact, the real phantom guards were secretly executed during Kuangzhang's large-scale attack, leaving only a few captives to identify Kuangzhang's special signals. Because the time was too tight, Shang Ji didn't believe that Kuangzhang could discover the phantom guard exposed in such a complicated battlefield situation in such a short period of time.
When Kuangzhang's signal was sent out, some confidant generals and soldiers immediately set fire to the camp to create chaos in order to confuse Kuangzhang. The generals of the various ministries who had received the order immediately led the army to pretend to be defeated, attracting Kuangzhang to lead troops to attack.
The plan went well, and Kuangzhang took the bait.
In fact, even if Kuangzhang really listened to his subordinates' dissuasion and stopped the pursuit, he would not be able to escape from the sky. Su Huan rode a flying phoenix and a fire horse to monitor the whole process in the sky. Because of the cover of night and the high altitude of the flight, Kuangzhang didn't even realize that there was someone watching over his head. Once Kuangzhang shows signs of retreating, Shang Ji will immediately launch in advance, and Kuangzhang must be left behind.
The whole process looks simple, but it is quite complicated to execute. That is to say, the Pingzhou Army is well-trained, the soldiers are prohibited by order, and the high-level generals in the army can only achieve this.
The regular army would never dare to pretend to be defeated suddenly during a decisive battle with the enemy. That is the rhythm of courting death, and it is easy to make fakes come true!
"Okay!"
After listening to Shang Ji's narration, Kuang Zhang suddenly clapped his hands and laughed loudly: "I would have underestimated the heroes of the world, but this time I won't be wronged!"
"This defeat is not a crime of war. If General Kuangzhang can submit to our army, he will definitely sweep his couch to welcome him, and even a little bit of filth is not worth mentioning."
What Shang Ji said was sincere. If it wasn't for Guo Jia's bug, it would be hard to say whether the battle would be won or not. I am even more envious of Kuangzhang's ability business.
Kuang Zhang couldn't help laughing when he heard the words, pointed to his nose and said, "The general wants to recruit this general?"
Hearing the disdain in Kuangzhang's words, Shang Ji frowned and asked, "Why not?"
"The general's good intentions have been accepted by the general, but it's a pity that the opportunity has not come. I have no relationship with the general!" Kuangzhang sighed, and turned to look at the 50,000 Lequan army: "The soldiers of Lequan City obeyed the order and immediately surrendered to the Pingzhou army. Mechanical surrender."
After finishing speaking, he turned his head to look at Shang Ji: "This general is incompetent, and has hurt the soldiers under his command. Please, General Shang, treat them kindly."
"General Kuangzhang, a man is mortal, and he is more important than Mount Tai or lighter than a feather, so why show off his bravery for a while?" Although he won 50,000 elite cavalry for nothing, Shang Ji was not happy. In front of him, there is still some sadness in my heart.
"The general misunderstood, when did the general say he was going to die?" Kuangzhang said with a faint smile, waved his hand and said, "This general has underestimated the heroes of the world, and this journey is over. I hope to have the opportunity to fight the general again in the future." .”
Shang Ji felt that something was wrong, but saw that Kuangzhang was suddenly enveloped by a burst of light, and when the light dissipated, Kuangzhang was no longer there.
At the same time, a system notification sounded in Shangji's ear: "Ding, congratulations player Shangji, you have successfully defeated the special historical figure Kuangzhang, and you will be rewarded with one million national war points and special skills [Exploration and Breaking]."
