Chapter 696 Interception and Killing Three
Yan Yan led more than 2,000 God Guards soldiers to rush in from the weak point of the Shun Army formation, and fought all the way towards the Chinese army. None of the Shun Army soldiers in front of him was his general.
Yan Jun's side was not as fast as the cavalry and Ma Teng's charge, but it basically encountered no obstacles.
The combat power, weapons, and armor of the soldiers of the Divine Guards are all stronger than those of the soldiers of the Shun Army. Their swords and guns will always leave wounds on the soldiers of the Shun Army. The soldiers who are hit will at least be injured and lose the ability to move.
When the soldiers' weapons fell on the God Guards soldiers, they were often forced to stop without breaking through their armor, or were directly bounced off by the armor.
Battles on the battlefield often end in an instant. If you fail to kill the enemy, you will be killed by the enemy.
Armor is important because it gives you a second chance to fight back.
Just one more chance to take action can change a battle, not to mention the armor of the Divine Guards can block more than one attack.
Usually five or six or even seven or eight compliant soldiers must pay the price to injure one God Guards soldier.
But more often than not, they cannot cause harm to the God Guards soldiers.
Because the God Guards soldiers did not fight alone, but formed small military formations, and then formed a huge military formation to move forward together.
There is another truth on the battlefield: a person's strength is always weak.
Only by integrating into the collective can we exert greater power.
This is true even for warriors of the Divine Guard who are individually powerful. Only by forming a military formation and cooperating with each other can they become stronger.
Yan Yan killed very happily. He couldn't remember how many compliant soldiers he had killed. At this time, his body was already covered with blood, all of which were compliant soldiers.
There was no trace of blood on his long knife, which was still bright silver.
This is a great knife!
Yan Yan charged forward in the Shunjun army formation, and no one could stop his pace.
However, he noticed changes on the battlefield. Why were the soldiers in front different?
It seems that the resistance is more determined.
Yan Yan saw the fighting spirit in their eyes.
OK!
I am not afraid that you are not afraid of death, but I am afraid that you do not dare to die!
He likes to fight enemies who are not afraid of death.
Only when you are not afraid of death can you exert your full strength, and such a battle will be more enjoyable.
They are both from the same lineage of swordsmen, and Yan Yan's and Shen Quan's styles are indeed completely different.
Chen Quan: How do you know when I am not in this state on the battlefield?
Soon, Yan Yan knew why the Jun army in front was different.
He saw the general's flag of the commander-in-chief of the Shun Army, a huge "Cheng" flag flying in the air.
It seems that there is a Shun army general named Cheng.
General Cheng rushed to the rear army with his elite troops, preparing to intercept Yan Yan's troops.
Regarding this, Yan Yan shouted in his heart, "Great!"
It’s my turn to commit a serious crime!
As long as the leader of the Shun army is killed, the defeat of the Shun army is within sight.
He knew that this Shun army had two generals. The scouts of the Divine Guards had long discovered that there were two general flags floating over the Shun army, and the Cheng Zi flag was just one of them.
On the other side is Jiang Ziqi, who is resisting Ma Teng's attack in the front army.
General Cheng fell, and General Jiang himself was helpless.
However, it is not easy for Yan Yan to kill General Cheng. Although General Cheng came to the rear army, he did not rush to the front line immediately. Instead, he commanded the soldiers from the rear army to surround Yan Yan's soldiers.
Yan Yan still had to penetrate the rear army if he wanted to kill him, but he no longer had to penetrate the central army.
This is already a very good opportunity.
Yan Yan looked at the Shunjun gathered around him and wiped the blood splattered on his face.
"Gao Qiang, come here!"
"General, what's the matter?"
A battalion commander of the Divine Guards who was also covered in blood appeared next to Yan Yan.
Yan Yan neatly cut down a soldier who wanted to sneak attack from behind.
Gu</span>Then he said to Gao Qiang: "I want to obey the order of the army commander! You will lead people to kill with me in a while!"
Yan is confident but not arrogant. If one person can behead an enemy general in the face of thousands of troops, then his surname should not be Yan, but Lu, Guan, Zhao...
"yes!"
Gao Qiang replied excitedly.
Then he asked his men to gather over one by one.
At the same time, Yan Yan also ordered other battalion commanders to create opportunities for him to kill in front of General Shun.
The Shun army in front must be allowed to move around so that Yan Yan can more easily reach General Cheng.
How to make the Shun army move to both sides or even all around?
Of course, use pressure to attract them.
For a time, the Divine Guards changed their military formations from a conical formation to a square and triangular formation. I not only wanted to expand the scope of the attack, but also increase the power of the attack.
This is not something that ordinary armies can accomplish. Even many elite soldiers cannot change their formations in battle.
What the Divine Guards can do is entirely due to years of tacit understanding and rigorous training.
At this time, no sound, formation flags, or gongs and drums can be used to achieve this effect.
General Cheng stood on the chariot and was shocked to vaguely see the changes in the Divine Guards.
"The rebels are so capable!"
Something bad is happening!
Before he could give orders for the Shun Army to respond, the formation changes of the Divine Guards immediately caused huge trauma to the Shun Army.
The sudden outbreak of the God Guards soldiers formed into formations, changing from defense to attack (on both sides). Except for the compliant soldiers in the front, the compliant soldiers in other directions suffered heavy losses for a while, including the rear.
Since you want to attract Shunjun's attention, of course the bigger the noise, the better.
General Cheng saw the changes in the Divine Guards, but did not expect their intention to change.
Especially when he learned that the Divine Guards suddenly returned to the rear, he thought that the Divine Guards might break out after killing for a while.
“How can we allow you to come and leave whenever you want!
Cheng Hu, Duan Ming and you two lead the troops to block the rebels, suppress them, and annihilate them together! "
"yes!"
"Subordinates take orders!"
The two Shunjun lieutenants surrendered to General Cheng and took a thousand Shunjun troops with them.
General Cheng had less than 1,500 obedient soldiers left in front of him.
Although there were not many, the Shun Army still had an absolute advantage compared to the Divine Guard Army.
The 4,000 rear troops plus the 1,000 troops he had just brought were quite advantageous against the 2,000-strong Divine Guard Army.
Even if they cannot be completely annihilated, they must be severely damaged. Don't even think about escaping without leaving a thousand corpses behind.
But he guessed wrong.
Yan Yan didn't want to leave, his target was him, the commander-in-chief of the army.
You think I'm thinking of a way out, but actually I'm thinking of chopping off your head.
General Cheng probably didn't expect that an infantry army would also want to penetrate the military formation, kill the generals and capture the flag.
Usually cavalry does this kind of thing, and infantry suffers too much in terms of charging speed.
It would be difficult for Yan Yan to kill General Cheng in the military formation, otherwise he wouldn't have asked Gao Qiang to cooperate with him.
After General Cheng left the Shun army in front of him, Yan Yan immediately rushed forward with the high wall and three hundred elite soldiers, and the surrounding divine guards also tried their best to cover them.
General Cheng could see clearly from his chariot that a rebel army was shooting at him like a sharp arrow that had escaped from the bowstring.
General Cheng laughed loudly, "This group of rebels wants to defeat the army on my head. Let them come over. I want to see what they are capable of?"
This General Cheng is the general who just thought he should rush to the county seat. He is a brave general and very confident in his martial arts.
Perhaps we may have been defeated in other places, but when fighting on the battlefield, our generals will definitely be no worse than your rebels!
General Cheng ordered people to wear armor for him and wait for Yan Yan and others, provided that Yan Yan could rush in front of him.
