Chapter 435 Setting foot in camp (2)(1/2)
Xu Kenan rode his horse and broke into the Jiaozhi camp directly.
He acted as the wedge of the wedge formation, waved the mace in his hand, and moved forward bravely.
When Jiaozhi Qingzhuang and the soldiers discovered that the Song army had broken into the camp, they screamed and ran away.
Xu Kenan was overjoyed when he saw this.
As a fierce general, his war instinct made him know immediately that now was the time to create more chaos and panic.
So, he held his mace, roared, and charged forward with a ferocious smile.
Behind him, the cavalry who charged with him also charged with him.
The wedge formation is an ancient but classic armored cavalry tactic.
Its sharp arrows are the main force of the assault. The five or five cavalry behind the arrows are horse archers. They exist as long-range projectors of firepower during the assault. After breaking into the enemy's formation, they will immediately draw their weapons and kill them.
Therefore, what followed Xu Kenan's charge was a continuous rain of arrows.
This scene turned into a hellish scene in the eyes of the already panicked Cochin people.
The leader of the Song Army was incredibly huge. He screamed and roared like a wild beast.
And when he came at high speed, the dense rain of arrows had already arrived in advance.
It seemed like it was shot by the Song Army cavalry.
"Ah!" The Cochin man collapsed completely.
There is no more courage, no more order.
Countless people tried their best to escape.
They screamed and ran towards their central army. In their hearts, that was the safest place.
They ran away like crazy at all costs.
Xu Kenan and his cavalry followed them closely, driving them toward the hinterland of the Central Cochin Army like a flock of sheep.
They are extremely experienced and know how to drive away enemies with the greatest efficiency.
Chaos spread quickly through the Cochin fortress like a plague.
More and more camps were threatened by rebel soldiers and fled.
Many people have no idea what's going on?
They woke up in a daze and found that the entire camp was running away, and the nearby camp was also shouting.
Countless cries, wolves crying and ghosts howling.
At the edge of the camp in the distance, a raging fire was spreading.
Everyone wished that their parents had given birth to four legs for them.
Therefore, although these people did not even see the shadow of the Song Army.
But this did not prevent them from escaping at all.
Especially those young and strong civilian men who were forcibly recruited.
At first there were thousands of people, then tens of thousands, and then the chaos spread to most of the Cochin military camp.
Countless people rushed towards the Chinese army crazily, and even fled backwards, further spreading the chaos.
…
"The captain is in trouble!"
A general hurriedly opened Li Changjie's tent, knelt down and said, "The Northern invaders are attacking the camp!"
"What?" Li Changjie's eyes widened and he looked at the other party in disbelief: "What did you say?"
"Beijing invaders attack the camp!" The general put his head down.
Li Changjie immediately lifted up his sword and walked outside the commander's tent.
As a result, he saw monstrous flames appearing in the northeast direction of his army barracks, stretching for several miles.
"Quick!" Li Changjie didn't have time to think too much and immediately ordered to his left and right: "Follow me to intercept the rebels."
He knew that chaos must be prevented from spreading further.
Once chaos spreads to the entire army, all fortresses will collapse.
Therefore, we must stop the further spread of chaos at all costs and keep the defeated troops out of the Chinese army.
Otherwise, his army may collapse due to this camp roar.
"No!" Zuo Zuo also knew that the situation was urgent and immediately took the order and left.
At this time, the troops had already broken down and rushed into the Chinese camp.
At this time, the choice Li Changjie made before setting up camp played a huge role.
The Chinese Army in Jiaozhi has a large number of troops stationed on the mountain where the Chinese Army is located.
These mountains form a barrier of sluggishness.
The army on the mountain can also observe the entire battlefield from a high position.
Therefore, these people did not panic, nor were they affected by the chaos.
Because they did not see the shadow of the Song Army's armored cavalry.
So chaos is under control here.
Although many broken soldiers rushed into the camp.
But the soldiers who reacted had already begun to build a defense line under the leadership of the general. At the same time, they organized people to shout: "The general has an order: everyone stops, anyone who dares to take a step forward will die!"
They do what they say.
Those soldiers who failed to heed the warning were directly killed by the soldiers in the camp.
One head after another, rolling on the ground.
At the same time, the archers were also organized and fired a warning rain of arrows at the defeated soldiers.
Only then did the chaotic troops finally stop and start to calm down.
Therefore, when Li Changjie arrived, the situation in the Chinese army's camp was already under control.
A large number of troops stationed in the mountains began to go down the mountains and establish defense lines.
This made Li Changjie breathe a sigh of relief.
But far away in the darkness, the chaos continued.
The fire spread and countless people ran away crying.
The entire eastern barracks was almost out of order.
When Li Changjie saw this, blood almost spurted out from his chest.
He knew that the entire east, and even the entire left wing, was hopeless.
I can't save him either.
Because in the dark, you don't know the location of the enemy, let alone the number of enemies. The most important thing is that you can't distinguish between ourselves and the enemy.
If you rush to send troops to restore order, you may only lose more.
He could only hold back the pain in his heart and ordered to his left and right: "I am passing the order to the generals of each battalion. They must guard the barracks and not leave the camp rashly!"
"Anyone who dares to enter the barracks will be killed without mercy!"
"promise!"
His order was passed on immediately.
More and more Cochin troops began to enter the barracks.
The chaos in the Chinese army gradually subsided.
…
Di Yong looked towards the Jiaozhi Camp in the darkness.
He watched as the fire began to appear from the northeastern corner of the left wing of the Cochin Camp, and then continued to spread toward its hinterland.
"Commander Xu fought well!" Di Yong couldn't help stroking her hands and praising: "I will definitely take credit for it!"
Looking at the chaos in the Cochin barracks, everyone asked for a fight.
Di Yong shook his head and said regretfully: "The main force of our army is far away in Beijia, and it is difficult to mobilize it in a hurry."
"Besides, the army of the thieves is not in chaos yet. When the main force of our army arrives, the thieves are already on guard."
Beiji City is at least sixty miles away from here.
The main force of the Song army was infantry, and it was already dawn when they arrived.
Another cavalry commander, Song Jie, couldn't help but said: "General manager, the last general is calling for battle!"
He looked at the Jiaozhi Central Army and said: "Commander Xu, we have now attracted the main force of the thieves. If our army attacks the central army at this time, even if it fails, it will still cause chaos to the enemy!"
Di Yong looked at this person, shook his head and said, "Commander Xu is still in the bandit camp. The command post needs to do a good job of welcoming Commander Xu."
"And..." Di Yong looked at the looming shadows of the mountains in the darkness.
On those mountains, torches have been lit.
"The army of thieves is camped close to the mountain and is in a condescending position. Even if they make a surprise attack, it will be difficult to achieve victory."
This is a fact!
Everyone knows how to fight and knows what Di Yong said is right.
The bandits defending the mountain have sufficient barriers.
