Chapter 2328: Changes in the surprise attack on Ziwu Valley(2/2)
I fell on my back...
People shouted and horses neighed, and there was chaos.
In the night, arrows flew one after another, causing these half-empty cavalry to scramble. They had to control their horses, guard against the cold arrows in the dark, and at the same time avoid being killed by the corpses in front of them.
They stumbled and were knocked down by the horses behind them. These cavalrymen, or riders, who were originally used to deliver messages or suppress bandits in Hanzhong, usually looked pretty good on the outside, but when they were in front of the battle, they had no flaws at all.
exposed.
Cavalrymen who are a little more knowledgeable will stretch their arms to move the torch away from themselves. Although this will make their arms more tired, it also has many benefits...
There is also a shield on the side of the horse. It seems to be no problem to pick it up on weekdays. However, when I was nervous, my hands shook, slipped, and I couldn't hold it firmly. Then I took the shield a few breaths slower, or didn't pick it up at all.
Got up and fell down...
When you encounter an attack, you subconsciously dodge. But on the battlefield, sometimes dodge is of no use. Most of the time, you just rely on throwing a twenty dice. If you are lucky, you will be unscathed by the bullets, but if you are unlucky,
, the same crater was bombed more than twice...
The correct approach was to speed up the attack immediately. When the cavalry encountered a long-range attack, they actually chose to stop and dodge. Wei Yan saw this and didn't know what to say...
Is it possible that everyone in the Zhang family is so cooperative? There is no need to emphasize this. With a little fiddling, you can get into the best posture for being shot. It is so comfortable...
By the time Zhang Feng came to his senses and began to order his men to attack, feeling that he could not stand there and eat arrows and crossbows in vain, the cavalry had already lost about a hundred, and their morale was greatly reduced.
The cavalry mustered up all their courage and their horses' hooves were flying.
"Go up! Kill them all!"
Zhang Feng roared, his face turned red, and it seemed to be shining under the firelight. He didn't know whether it was the anger caused by being attacked, or the shame and anger because he had problems facing the enemy.
The cavalrymen in Hanzhong also roared, as if this would give them more courage and strength. They spurred their horses again, kicked the horses' bellies, and accelerated, approaching the Wei Yan soldiers who had sneaked up on them in the dark.
Just when they were about to trample these Wei Yan soldiers under the horse's hooves, suddenly a war horse in the front whined, and the horse lost its front hoof and fell sideways...
Then two more horses fell to the ground...
"Tripping the rope!"
"There's an ambush!"
The Hanzhong cavalry once again had to rein in their horses, shouting loudly and holding up their shields to cover themselves as much as possible...
This is another typical mistake of not being cautious even though you know there is an ambush.
You can fall into the same pit twice...
Wei Yan felt that he could not take action anymore, but it was a pity that his troops were indeed insufficient, otherwise...
This kind of mistake is actually very common, just like almost all people who drive cars have passed the traffic regulations test, and when they talk about some bad habits and taboos in driving in daily life, they are clear-cut and do not make any mistakes, but really
When encountering some unexpected situations, I feel that the car on the other side of me will definitely let...
Otherwise, I would have turned on the turn signal...
How can two beers be considered drinking?
And so on.
Zhang Feng knows quite a few essentials, and he was able to talk about it with flying colors when he was being tested. But now that he is in battle, all the things that he can say smoothly in normal times seem to be missing...
Arrows and crossbows are flying!
The cavalry's shields were all one size smaller and could not cover their tails and beards at all. Arrows and crossbows flew out from the darkness, and the horses fell down one by one. There were screams and neighings.
Mixed together.
The struggling horses and knights looked very miserable under the light of sporadic torches.
"Throw away the torch! Throw the torch!"
Zhang Feng may have made the most correct decision since he entered the battle.
The torch fell on the ground, the light and visibility were reduced, and the arrows and crossbows in the darkness also lost their target and gradually stopped...
The cavalry who suffered heavy losses did not dare to pursue, and the infantry coming out of the central camp also stepped on some caltrops. Although the number of caltrops was not large, it successfully slowed down its progress. When these people arrived on the left
When they reached the side camp, Wei Yan's soldiers who attacked the camp on the left had already left the battlefield.
The soldiers who came out of the central camp naturally thought that the pursuit mission was shouldered by the cavalry, so these infantry naturally drove into the left camp and began to recover and sort out the chaotic left camp. When they knew that Zhang Feng had been ambushed, most of the losses were powerless.
During the pursuit, when I wanted to catch up with Wei Yan and others, I lost the best opportunity...
The cavalry troops suffered heavy losses, and Zhang Zhen was furious. In order to avoid anyone suspecting that there was something wrong with his command and response, he, like the branch leaders of most companies, said that there was nothing wrong with his policies and strategies, and then took all the blame.
The blame was placed on the poor execution of his subordinates, especially the commander of the left camp and the captain of the cavalry. He immediately implemented military law and hung two heads high to frighten the other generals, and then reassigned the commanders.
However, even if a few middle-level managers are replaced, the losses in the business have already been caused.
what to do?
It is impossible to tell the truth. It is impossible to tell the truth in this life.
After Zhang Zhen pondered for a moment in the Chinese army tent, he came up with an idea.
Zhang Zhen is not very good at military strategy, but playing tricks in writing, Zhang Zhen said that this is his old profession, and it is a piece of cake...
So Zhang Zhen quickly wrote a written report to his immediate superior. In it, he first expressed his confidence in fighting to the end, and then briefly mentioned the process of his battle with Wei Yan. Of course, the specific content was not caused by Wei Yan's surprise attack.
The camp was damaged and the soldiers were killed or injured. It was Zhang Ze himself who led a group of fools to fight against the enemy one by one. Despite the incompetence of his subordinates, he turned the tide and stood firm at the critical moment. He protected the spring and successfully repelled the attack.
Wei Yan's attack inflicted heavy losses on Wei Yan and protected the integrity of the positions on Baoxie Road and Tangluo Road...
At the end of the letter report, Zhang Zhen stated that although he had tried his best to kill Wei Yan's soldiers and dealt a huge blow to Wei Yan's troops, he had also suffered certain losses. He hoped that Zhang Ze could send some reinforcements to rebuild the left wing.
The camp provides the necessary foundation for the next step of defense or even counterattack against Wei Yan.
At this point, Zhang Zhen has successfully escaped from the embarrassing situation of a loser, and has also become a powerful person who successfully "defeated" the invasion of the general Wei Yan who conquered Shu. Not only did he no longer have the risk of being convicted, but he also became a powerful person.
We can get another batch of resources from Zhang Ze to make up for our own shortfall, and there is no doubt that there will be a surplus.
