Chapter 197: New City
☆Free novel reading [ ]
Guo Jun judged that Pan Chenghu and the others thought that they had harbored two thousand men and horses to the Tiaohutan Camp, so Huaiyuan's soldiers and horses did not dare to fight.
They thought that even if Deng Gui, Xu Wujiang and others were brave enough to fight, they had so many people in their camp and strong support from outside could be transferred back at any time, so they were absolutely not afraid that Huaiyuan's soldiers would really have the ability to eat them.
They even thought that Deng Gui, Xu Wujiang and others were too eager to reverse the situation and led Huaiyuan troops to attack. They might be able to seize the opportunity to fight back and avenge their previous shame.
On July 22, the coalition forces successfully removed two small villages outside the Shibaliwu. Chen Zixiao did not pursue Guo Junzong and others without permission. He also sent people to send the three captured knives to the Tiaohutan camp to motivate Guo Junzong and Pan Chenghu and others to siege Huaiyuan, saying that they would lead the main force of the coalition forces to the east to assist in the latest day.
On this day, the main force of Huaiyuan's troops dispatched from the street market and Beiqiao Village, approaching the front of the Tiaohutan camp.
On this day, Guo Jun was sentenced and Pan Chenghu understood what it means to "I don't want you to think, I want you to think."
Several side vans were on both wings, with arrows on the front side covered the stones, and dozens of people approached the walls of the village. From this moment on, Xu Huai had no chance to turn the tables on Guo Jun, Pan Chenghu and the others.
The defense of the Tiaohutan Camp is very simple, which is to fill the middle of the two rows of wood with earth and stones, which is more than meter high and the top is more than meter wide, so that soldiers can be set up.
Each village wall is a narrow and long straight line, which is particularly straight, reflecting Guo Junzong's aesthetic consciousness. He did not deliberately form a specific angle, but the village walls of different angles support each other with bows and crossbows.
There are no facilities such as building horse faces, urns, reef buildings, war sheds and other facilities in the middle of the village wall as a node for organizing offensive and defensive wars.
There are no obstacles such as horse resistance on the village wall to restrict the opponent from approaching the city.
That's not to mention digging trenches inside and outside the village walls and building arrow towers to increase defense depth.
Avoiding Guo Junjudgment, Pan Chenghu and other thieves defended themselves, and the terrain was wider in the east and south - that was the direction where Deng Gui and Xu Wujiang personally supervised the main force of the township to attack. Xu Huai led 60 people to the team first, and led the way from the north to the village to climb the wall.
After cutting over the dozens of bandits on the wall in front of him, Xu Huai did not say that he would fight along the narrow wall to the wings. Instead, he jumped down the wall with Xu Wukun, Tang Pan, Xu Xin'an and others, and killed the bandits inside the wall like a stray dog. After crying for his father and mother to escape, he asked the follow-ups to put down the ladder, forming a passage to directly enter the heart of the enemy camp.
Seeing this scene, Pan Chenghu, who was rushing to reinforce from the South Wall with elite combat power, was stunned:
Why did the Xu clan, the rude tiger, play cards without reason, and bring fifty or sixty people to the camp directly?
When fighting in the city, don’t you have to fight back and forth in a manner to test each other’s strength and will?
Even if the defenders are weak, after entering the city, they should not fight on both wings of the village wall first, expand the occupation surface, and wait until they stabilize the position so that the subsequent main troops are approaching before entering the village, and oppressing their opponents little by little?
How could anyone kill fifty or sixty people on the wall of the village, and there were no reinforcements behind them, so they went to the camp of two thousand men without caring care?
The food is delivered?
The city was originally a conventional tactic, but Guo Jun judged that the village wall built on the east bank of the Tiaohutan was too simple and too narrow. If Xu Huai led his men to hit the wings, the expansion surface would be too narrow.
The village wall, which is less than ten feet wide, can accommodate people at most. No matter how fierce Xu Huai is, it is difficult for him to act as an arrow for a long time and continue to drill forward and fight.
Once they are exhausted or encounter obstacles such as resisting horses, their attack rhythm will be interrupted.
What's more, when they stand on the village wall, the bandits are prone to organize bowmen to shoot from the inside of the village wall.
The bandit army was bound by the narrow village wall, so it was difficult for Xu Huai to attack and create more chaos for them in a short period of time.
Conventional tactics are not feasible.
As for what level of these bandits in the Tiaohutan Camp are and how strong the combat effectiveness are, what else do Xu Huai needs to test?
Xu Huai decided: No more tests! Showdown!
Deng Gui and Xu Wujiang attracted the troops who were still somewhat combative from the south and east. Xu Huai led the team of sixty people to the first team and directly entered the thief camp from the north. They wanted to be a shit-stirring stick and quickly and directly stab into the softest and most unprepared butt of the thief camp in the Thief Beach. They stabbed hard and stirred up.
The thief army is crowded with people, but at this time it is its most fatal weakness.
That is, the internal space of Tiaohutan Camp is too small.
In the camp with a slightly larger size of two hundred steps, there were nearly 3,000 new bandits and the crowds surrounded by the robbers. In addition, the two or three hundred large animals such as plundered mules and horses were reluctant to abandon them, and they rushed into the camp, and they were all crowded.
Everything was arranged in an orderly manner, or most of the bandits were ordered to stay in the shack and not walk around at will, and perhaps there was no sign of too much chaos.
Xu Huai personally led the team to attack Beizhai Wall, but no one could stop him. Pan Chenghu hurriedly led his troops to Beizhai Wall to reinforce, but the combat effectiveness of the troops on the Beizhai Wall was too weak and the speed of defeat was beyond his imagination.
First of all, the dozens of bandits on the wall of the village were unable to fight back, and were killed by Xu Huai, who was like a tiger entering the flock of sheep. There were seventy or eighty bandits on both sides of the wall of the village, but they were afraid that Xu Huai would be too fierce to lead his troops to run to the two wings, so they dared to huddle behind the big wooden shield and shout, and did not dare to come in.
They can't get in, either.
The village wall was too narrow, so Xu Huai arranged for Tang Qing and Yin Peng to stare at the left and right on the village wall. Unless there were masters of his level or powerful weapons in the thief army, they would not want to attack from such a narrow flank in a short time.
The thief soldiers were absolutely sufficient. A line of defense was arranged behind the Beizhai wall, with more than 100 thief soldiers, but their combat effectiveness was even more unremarkable.
The leader's thief's eyes were slashed by Xu Huai's sword, and his whole body was chopped in half from the left shoulder bone to the right hip, which made the thief's soldiers frightened; Xu Wukun, Tang Pan and others attacked from the left and right, and only cut over eight or nine people. The remaining thiefs cried and shouted that they would flee back: The opposite side was too bad, let's collapse directly!
The bandits who reinforced from the east and south, and the bandits who fled south, rushed into the alleys that were squeezed into four or five feet wide by shacks on both sides. The chaos can be imagined.
The bandits on both wings were unable to quickly encircle the rear route of the team through the narrow village wall. The internal space was too narrow, and there was no passage to be opened on the inside of the village wall so that the troops could be quickly mobilized.
This made Xu Huai take the lead in joining the enemy camp, and he didn't have to worry about being surrounded by bandits in the back. Instead, he could stand up against the wall of the North Village and arrange troops more calmly, and divided three teams of troops, led by Xu Wukun, Tang Pan and Xu Xin'an to fight out in the depths of the three sides, and squeezed the chaotic bandits desperately into the narrower corner to the west.
At this time, Xu Huai did not rush forward to the front, but stood under the wall of the northern village with Guanyue Bow in his hand, shooting at the targeted stubborn bandits who had the ability to create obstacles.
At this moment, Deng Gui and Xu Wujiang also stepped up their attacks from the east and south. Four or five hundred soldiers surrounded the city carriages and stepped on the ladders, rushed under the thin village wall.
Guo Jun verdict, Pan Chenghu completely realized what fatal mistake they made, but the chaos in the village had already become. Zhou Tian even opened the Xizhai Gate and led dozens of direct descendants to escape to the shore of the Tiaohu Beach.
The camp was not big, with soldiers and horses coming to the north, south, and east. At this time, a hole was opened to the west, and someone called out loud, causing all the bandits to escape to the Xizhai Gate.
Pan Chenghu was also smart enough. When he saw that some soldiers and horses on the north village wall escaped, he retreated to the south village wall in time and met with Guo Jun, but was not involved in the chaos.
Just like hundreds of people fell into the river, no matter how good the water quality was, their hands and feet would be caught by others and sinking. Guo Jun judged and Pan Chenghu also knew that if they entered the village through the wall, fled through the Xizhai Gate, and were involved in the chaos, they would be more dead and even more lifeless. At this moment, they could only bite the bullet and jumped directly from the south to the wall of the village from the south, resisted the rain of arrows shot from the distance by Huaiyuan's troops, and fled to the shore of Juhutan on the west side along the outer wall.
They did not dare to go to the ferry, because those were too chaotic.
In order to avoid hunting, countless people jumped into the river without taking off their armor.
Yes, the water level of the Tiger Beach has not flooded the head at this time. So many people are holding hands and queuing up, and they will definitely be able to walk to the other side smoothly, but can so many people calm down at this time?
A man tripped over the reef at the bottom of the river and pulled the people in front and behind, and fell into the circle; dozens or even dozens of people fell into the water like a bunch of hemp ropes, and they were wrapped around in panic and dragged each other, so that no one could stand up from the river that was not very deep.
As long as you are carried two or three hundred steps downstream by the turbulent river water, the water becomes deeper, and you will rarely have the chance to struggle to get ashore again.
Guo Jun judged that Pan Chenghu was like a stray dog, avoiding the most chaotic river bank, and deviating more than a hundred steps upstream. Seeing a cavalry chasing him in Huaiyuan Township camp, he did not dare to resist. He took off his armor and dived naked to escape to the west bank...
