Turbulent Times Chapter 1322: Tiger and lion fight
The place where Wang Junlin chose to land on the beach was not a temporary decision just now, but it had already been decided long before he came, with sufficient intelligence support from the Shen Guoer Military Intelligence Office and detailed map reference.
In fact, the biggest problem for Wei Daoer and Liu Jicheng is the lack of intelligence. If they know enough about the warships of Fanyang County, they will know that if the fleet of Fanyang County wants to dock, it has high requirements on the depth of the river and the terrain of the beach. In fact, there are not many places in the west of the Dashi River Basin in Shanggu County that meet the requirements.
And if they concentrate their forces to defend these few shores that meet the requirements, Wang Junlin and the Far East Army may have to pay a lot of money to get to the shore.
The place where Wang Junlin chose to land on the beach was a large river beach wetland more than 50 miles away from Matian County. It was in the shape of a horseshoe and had a depth of seven to eight hundred steps. Covering up, but it is undoubtedly beneficial to Wang Junlin's side to seize the shore in a short period of time, and set up a battle formation with a large enough number of people.
The big boat that Wang Junlin was on can carry 500 people. Because it is too big, it can only be in the deepest part of the river, otherwise it will run aground. Wang Junlin did not transfer to other boats to land just now. He completely handed over to Yuchi Jingde and Luo Shixin the battle of landing on the shoal, without giving any orders.
At this time, Wang Junlin stood on the warship watching the battle from a distance, surrounded by Shen Guoer, Pei Shiju, and Cui Qingming. Pei Yuanqing spent most of these years in the capital and did not fight many battles. On an errand, he also went ashore.
Wang Junlin knows that Pei Yuanqing is a rare general, even though he has a good relationship with him, but because of his background in a powerful family, when the situation in the world is still unclear, especially Wang Junlin has almost gone to all the powerful families In the opposite situation, the Pei family will never allow Pei Yuanqing to serve under his command.
Wang Junlin knew this, so he didn't force it. On the contrary, Pei Yuanqing quarreled with Pei Shiju many times because of this matter.
…
…
The Far East Army was fully prepared and had a clear division of labor. After gaining a firm foothold on the river beach, it quickly expanded its position. The warships stopped close to the shore. .
Then, more than a dozen flat-topped shallow-bottomed boats with shallow to deep drafts were filled between the troop carrier and the river beach, piled down and anchored to a stop, connected with pallets, and tied firmly.
The tail quickly formed two shipyard passages that were nearly 100 feet long and went directly to the river beach. Hundreds of soldiers each carried a bundle of hay on their backs and boarded the shipyard. Extending forward on the wetland with feet sinking...
"Whoever dares to escape, I swear to kill his whole family, and whoever follows me to kill officers and soldiers, as long as he kills one person, I guarantee that he will have food for a month..." After Wei Daoer arrived, he acted decisively, He quickly led 5,000 cavalry and more than 30,000 bandits present to make a comeback.
The 5,000 cavalry led by Wei Daoer all wore armor, and less than one-tenth of the other 30,000 rogues wore armor. Closing his eyes, shouting the word "grain" in his mouth, he followed Wei Dao'er and rushed towards the Far Eastern Army that had already landed.
Because this river beach is located in the wilderness, there are no villages and towns nearby, so there are no river embankments or ports.
Wei Dao'er had a big iron shield in his left hand and a horse-cutting knife in his right. He was riding on the horse. When he rushed halfway, he stopped. While ordering the archers on the two wings to shoot arrows, he was forced to drive three waves The bandits rushed to the shore position of the Far East Army...
Three waves of rogues, each with 10,000 people, one wave rushed up and was defeated by the Far East Army. Wei Daoer immediately drove the other wave of rogues forcibly, so the three waves of rogues charged six waves in turn , the number of casualties was more than 10,000, and when he saw that he was about to mutiny, Wei Dao'er took 5,000 elite armor-piercing shields and rushed towards the Far Eastern Army's battle formation on the bank with arrows. Yuchi Jingde, who was the first 3,000 people from the battalion to land and repelled the 30,000 bandits, was a little surprised.
At this time, because the enemy and us are already fighting together, the long-range attack on the warship is not very effective, and the crossbow arrows and catapults cannot cover it. The soldiers and horses gave up enough space for landing, so while repelling the rushing bandits just now, they also consciously rushed out.
At this time, seeing that this wave of thieves was completely different from the previous rogues, Yuchi Jingde knew that the elite of the enemy had finally entered the field, and he also recognized that the black-faced burly man who rushed to the front was Wang Xuba's second brother. Wei Daoer, the head of the family, sneered, leaving 1,000 people to stay in place to prevent other bandits from coming around, and he led 2,000 people to directly charge back at the opponent's 5,000 people.
On the warship, Luo Shixin, who commanded his subordinates to transport the horses down one by one, saw from a distance that Yuchi Jingde was the one who was his favorite opponent, and screamed anxiously, but there was nothing he could do.
When Wei Daoer was still five feet away, Yuchi Jingde raised his horse and drove the horse straight towards him...
Wei Dao'er held up the shield with his left hand to block it, and with a click, the iron shield made of pig iron was smashed into two halves.
Not waiting for Wei Daoer's face to change drastically, after Yuchi Jingde smashed the shield with a spear, the attack continued unabated and hit Wei Daoer's left arm directly.
With a bang, Wei Dao'er almost fell from the horse, and his arm hurt. In fact, if it wasn't for the iron guard plate on his left arm, it would have been broken immediately. Even so, he was almost shocked fracture.
In fact, Wei Daoer's reaction was not slow at all. While he was resisting with his left arm, the Horse-Chopping Saber in his right hand had already struck Yuchi Jingde's chest like lightning, but was blocked by Yuchi Jingde's lance. .
Wei Dao'er didn't know that his opponent was Yuchi Jingde, but in the first day of junior high school when they fought, the shield was smashed in half, he felt quite ashamed and lost face.
However, he saw that Yuchi Jingde in front of him was the opponent's general, so he was moved to kill him, thinking that if he could kill this person, he might be able to drive them into the water before the main force of the Far East Army came ashore.
It's just what Wei Daoer thought in his heart, and Yuchi Jingde also thought the same way. The two fought with all their strength. He got away and fell, although he desperately used his knife to cut off a piece of the opponent's robe, but he also understood that the strength of the opponent would only be higher than his own, if he continued to fight, not only would he not be able to kill the opponent, but he might have to confess here.
Of course Wei Daoer is not a reckless man, he no longer fights desperately with Yuchi Jingde, but calls more than a dozen personal soldiers to entangle Yuchi Jingde, while he leads the others to charge into the enemy's formation.
Under this rush, Wei Dao'er was surprised again. With his martial arts, it took him half a day to kill three ordinary soldiers. Nine iron spears stabbed at him from all directions, which made him quite careless.
After fighting for a while, Wei Daoer discovered that the Far Eastern Army formed a small formation for every three people, another formation for every nine people, and a larger formation for every twenty-seven people, and so on. Three rounds and so on. Even with Wei Dao'er's strength, he was in danger of being killed if he was entangled by a battle formation of more than 27 people.
