Chapter 245 The Prestige of Entrapment
Chapter 245 The Power of Entrapment
The sky was already half-dark and half-white. The patrols outside the Yellow Turban camp were yawning nonstop. They looked up at the sky impatiently, hoping that daylight would arrive early so that they could change their posts in time and prepare for the attack.
Take a nap before going to town.
However, the more times like these come, the more time seems to move against one's wishes and the slower it goes.
The Yellow Turban Army stationed troops at the northern corner of Mount Tai. According to Qu Shuai Fuyun's arrangement, part of the Yellow Turban camp was placed halfway up the mountain, while other Yellow Turban soldiers were stationed at the foot of the mountain in east, west, and south directions to guard the main camp on the mountain.
In the half-dark and half-white sky, the yellow scarf soldiers were still a little confused when looking at the distant scenery. There seemed to be countless man-eating beasts lurking in the darkness that had some light.
A yawning yellow turban soldier seemed to see a figure shaking in the darkness in the distance, so he squinted his eyes and looked over there carefully.
But what greeted him was a sharp arrow! Or rather, a blade of sharp arrows!
"Whoosh!"
A concentrated rain of arrows was shot towards the camp gate of the Yellow Turban camp. Before the Yellow Turban soldiers on guard had time to react, they were hit by arrows and fell limply to the side one after another.
"Uuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu"
The sound of the horn that shattered the tranquility shook Huang Jinqu Shuai Fuyun, who was sleeping soundly on the mountain. He stood up from the bed in a daze and looked around, his face a little confused.
"What's going on?"
In the rear formation of the trapped camp, flags were waving, and drums and trumpets kept ringing in the rear formation of the trapped camp, urging the soldiers in the front formation to clash forward. Their target was the rear camp of the Yellow Turban Army camp at the foot of the mountain.
.
Especially the slogan of trapping the camp, shouted out by these Bingzhou soldiers, really not only boosted the spirit, but also suppressed the morale of the opponent.
The Yellow Turban Army originally wanted to prevent the trapped camp from rushing out, but they did not expect that the other party had another elite soldier coming to meet them, and the combat power of this elite soldier was several blocks ahead of the Yellow Turban Army.
It is conceivable that the troops of the Han Zuo General and the Jizhou Muqin Guards would have high combat effectiveness.
Although the Yellow Turban Army in Houzhai has a low wooden fence as protection and has some geographical advantages, how can the quality of the archers trapped in the camp be compared to that of these ordinary Yellow Turban Army archers?
The Han troops each relied on their square formations, either as a small group of five or as a large group of ten, harvesting the lives of the Yellow Turban soldiers in the chaotic Yellow Turban camp.
There was the Yellow Turban Army's food and supplies and their equipment and equipment... Gao Shun knew this very well.
Fuyun's face turned pale, and the hand holding the knife shook back and forth. His eyes were blood red, and he stared fiercely at the situation down the mountain. He roared in a heavy voice: "Kill them, kill them, don't let anyone go! I want to
They all die!"
Fuyun's camp was on the mountain, and from a high position he could see the situation down the mountain very clearly.
And with this wave of arrow rain, bursts of wailing sounds were heard from behind the Yellow Turban Army's stronghold.
Fuyun vaguely saw some very disharmonious figures in the camp at the foot of the mountain, and they were rushing back and forth in the camp of the Yellow Turban Army. There was no doubt that those figures were the Han army.
This is the current situation.
But the situation in the trapped camp was very different from theirs. They stationed there firmly and did not let the Yellow Turban Army who came to rescue take a step beyond their control. They allowed the fire to get bigger and bigger until the entire back village where grain was stored was set alight.
Let alone the art of war, they might not be able to read all the words on a scroll, otherwise they wouldn't be so stupid as to build their camp on the mountain.
Although the sergeants trapped in the camp were protected by iron armor and shields, this wave of arrows still caused more than 20 sergeants trapped in the camp to lose the ability to fight.
Gao Shun has made up his mind, not only to make the name of the trapped camp frighten the Han Dynasty, but also to make the word trapped camp familiar and feared by people in the Western Region, Northern Xinjiang, or further afield.
, admired!
But on the other hand, once the war becomes urgent, they cannot command the soldiers at the foot of the mountain to fight as quickly as possible.
The number of the Yellow Turban Army is large, but Fuyun and Yuancheng do not know how to train soldiers, and they do not know how to train soldiers. Therefore, although the Qingzhou Yellow Turbans have experienced several battles and have accumulated a certain amount of tactics, they are still inferior to the regular sergeants of the Han Dynasty.
Get up and still belong to the mob.
The stronger the fire, the more food and grass were burned, and the slimmer their future prospects in the army became.
The more than 100,000 yellow scarf troops under his command seem to be huge and powerful based on their numbers, but in fact, only a part of them can fight. Most of these people cannot fight. On the contrary, they just mix and match according to the current situation.
In the Yellow Turban Army, trying to find a way out for yourself and a way to earn a living is just a fool's errand.
You must know that although the trapped camp has just organized training not long ago, none of the soldiers in it are new recruits. They are all Bingzhou warriors brought by Li Ji from Bingzhou to Liu Jian's army. Not only when they were in Luoyang, but also with Xiliang
The army has fought hard, and in the past when he was in the border counties of Bingzhou, he fought against foreign tribes all year round, and has extremely rich experience in battle.
That was the White Guards led by Zhao Yun and Xia Houlan.
"The ambition to be trapped in a battle will lead to death but not life!"
"Fire the arrow!"
Although the sky is not completely bright, we can already see some of the conditions below the mountain clearly through the light.
The second characteristic is that once they are in a headwind situation and are confused by the enemy's offensive, the harm they will do to themselves will be even greater than the enemy's harm to them.
Especially Zhao Yun, who took the lead and led the White Turban Army to support Gao Shun, attacked the Yellow Turban Army's rear formation, and almost broke through the Yellow Turban Army's formation.
This is the case for the Yellow Turban Army led by Fuyun and Yuancheng.
Yuancheng's expression was also extremely distorted. Although he didn't reply, judging from his expression and state, what he was thinking in his heart was probably exactly the same as Fuyun.
However, the few casualties did not dampen the morale of the soldiers trapped in the camp too much. Not only were they not frightened by the rain of arrows, but their advancement speed was even accelerated.
Because they knew that the other party's luggage was getting closer and closer.
Especially those who are forty-five or six years old and above, and those who are sixteen years old or below. They are either too old to be useful, or too young to be sensible. With these people mixed in the team, let alone helping to kill the enemy.
Okay, if they don't cause trouble, the other Yellow Turban soldiers can burn incense.
The rabble has two characteristics. The first characteristic is that they rely on their numbers and momentum. Once they confront the enemy head-on, as long as they can gain an advantage, they will appear to be quite brave. Outsiders will not be able to tell that they are a rabble on the surface.
What kind of skill is it to burn other people's food?
Unfortunately, in terms of military matters such as setting up camps and using military tactics, Fuyun and Yuancheng, the two commanders, were completely outsiders.
In the military formation of the Chinese army, the sound of vibrating bowstrings and the sound of arrows piercing the air suddenly became one.
This slogan is enough to show the current state and fighting spirit of the soldiers in the trapped camp.
Yes, they are on the mountain, and the other Yellow Turban soldiers are below. They can indeed form a defensive force against them, and no one can touch them in the slightest.
However, these two Yellow Turban Qushuai did not expect that the opponent's fighting rhythm was very good, and they had already rushed out of the stronghold before the elites they led reached the bottom of the mountain from the mountain.
The loud sound of horns sounded in the mountains, and the offensive of the elite trapped soldiers became more and more fierce!
On the other hand, the trapped formations trained by Gao Shun rely on each other. Each formation seems to have no relationship with each other, but in fact they all maintain a subtle distance and are linked together.
As the trapped camp entered the shooting range, a large number of feather arrows also flew out from the Yellow Turban Army's rear stronghold.
Cries rang through the sky, and the Yellow Turban soldiers who watched their rations being set on fire even began to cry bitterly.
The three strongholds guarding him were all on fire at this moment. The Yellow Turban soldiers in the three strongholds were shouting loudly, either in fear or anger, accompanied by shrill cries of killing.
Following Gao Shun's shouts, soon another batch of rockets were sent by the archers from the trapped camp into the rear village where the Yellow Turban Army had stored supplies.
The fighting style of these Han troops is so shameless!
Until Gao Shun set fire to the Yellow Turban Army's food and grass, they were still rolling and crawling down the mountain, unable to rush to the scene as soon as possible to maintain the situation.
Especially the leading generals of this army, Zhao Yun and Xia Houlan, are also extremely brave men.
Those painful screams seemed to move the sky and the earth.
The fire took advantage of the wind, and soon the flames of the grain harvesting in the Houzhai began to amplify.
This is also an important reason why they march slowly.
"ignition!"
Later, Fuyun and Yuancheng, who led their troops down from the mountain, saw this situation from a distance and were so angry that they almost vomited blood.
The Yellow Turban Army did not have a stable rear, and their experience in arranging food transportation and weapons storage was very shallow. Basically, important baggage could only be carried with the army.
After being trained by these two men, Bai Jie's troops have been expanding and have now become Liu Jian's personal bodyguards.
The soldiers of the trapped camp holding shields and halberds slowly moved forward under the leadership of the camp commander and team leaders. They formed a dense military formation, sometimes gathering and then scattering, constantly changing their tactics, and slowly moved towards the Yellow Turban Army camp.
Pressed down from the depths.
The Yellow Turban Army, which was attacked by the trapped camp, ran around. People with various purposes were there. Some wanted to run away, and some wanted to fight the Han army desperately... Those who escaped walked back, while those who wanted to rush forward desperately, their own people
After colliding with our own people, and then expanding the base of these two waves of people, the scene can be imagined.
The lack of food and grass will not affect the strong Yellow Turban soldiers, but it will be the vulnerable groups like them who will be squeezed.
The baggage and provisions were set on fire, which had a greater impact on the morale of the Yellow Turban Army. More soldiers began to panic. They didn't know what to do at this moment. No one could tell them what to do in this situation.
What is the right thing to do in a given situation.
In a battle where the general and the soldiers are out of touch, once an emergency occurs, the consequences can be imagined.
If you want to fight, fight head-on and fight it out like a real man.
"Woooooooo~~!"
Now, after Gao Shun's training, their combat power and tactics have once again moved towards a higher level.
Especially those who are older or younger in the Yellow Turban Army. They are at the bottom of the Yellow Turban Army. They usually receive the least amount of food in the army, but they do the heaviest hard work.
of.
The bows held by the archers trapped in the camp are all heavy two-stone bows specially made by Jizhou, and the arrows they shoot are also heavy-feathered. They are not at all the light and soft bows in the hands of the Yellow Turban Army in Fuyun, and their power is incomparable.
Then, as if he had thought of something, he suddenly got excited and rushed out of the handsome tent shirtless without putting on any clothes.
The two sides were getting closer and closer. When the Yellow Turbans guarding the food and baggage came another wave of arrows, the shield formation of the front formation suddenly let go of the front defense.
If Xia Houlan hadn't called him from the side and told him to take it easy, Zhao Yun might have led his troops directly past the camp and rushed to the top of Mount Tai.
Soon, the Bailian army joined the trapped camp, welcomed them out of the stronghold, and retreated towards Licheng.
After this battle, the Yellow Turban Army suffered heavy losses, with numerous casualties.
Looking at the messy camp, Fuyun and Yuancheng's faces turned pale with anger. They didn't even stop at the camp, and immediately organized the elite Yellow Turban Army to follow Zhao Yun and Gao Shun in pursuit.
The two yellow turban canal commanders have made up their minds, and today they vow to make each other pay for their debt with blood, and they will not stop until they die!
Chapter completed!
