Yan Yang first went to Bashan to be the head of the tun, and later performed well and became a hundred generals, and then entered the Tiger Hall for further study and was promoted to the capital of Bashandu. Others knew that he was an old man from Mingyushan, but at first they looked down on him, thinking that he was here to mix qualifications. However, Yan Yang has eaten and lived with all his subordinates for most of the past six months, loves soldiers like sons, is fair and strict, and is not greedy for money. During the night patrol, the soldiers who accidentally kicked off the quilt would tuck the corners of the quilt, the sick soldiers would personally serve medicine, and there were countless other things to ask for warmth.

Bashan is all dressed in human armor, Qingshan knife, crossbow on the back, the weight is about 20 kilograms, the usual training intensity is more than double that of ordinary Cuiyu soldiers, but Yan Yang takes the lead in every drill, and the weight is as much as 50 kilograms, and all the subjects specified in the cuidian get the first, and soon won the heart of the army, up and down.

Subduing the hearts of the army is only the first step, and then in the confrontation drills of various departments, Yan Yang showed the temperament of a general, not afraid of danger, not surprised by changes, and almost invincible when pulling out the mountain. The only two defeats were in the face of Ye Min's Zhenhaidu, one was designed to introduce a trap, and the other was killed by more than half of the people in the sports battle, which was judged to be lost by the Supervision Division, but Zhenhaidu also suffered heavy casualties.

This is not a problem of Zhenhaidu's combat effectiveness, but the gap between Yan Yang and Ye Min's command art, this gap cannot be made up in a short period of time, and can only grow gradually through future battles.

An Xiuyuan lost his crown, his hair was disheveled, and he sat in an ox cart in embarrassment. There are horses in the army, but he can't ride, he takes an ox cart to go out, and it is naturally an ox cart to escape, and when he breaks out of the encirclement, An Xiu is far from relieved, summons Zuoqiu Shoubai, and said angrily: "What about Tan Zhuo? Doesn't it mean that the Yangzhou army is attacking Guazhou and Jingkou with all its might, is it a ghost that comes out of here? ”

Zuoqiu Shoubai lowered his head and said, "Tan Sima is still in Yangzi Town, and he didn't escape......

"Rubbish! It's all rubbish! ”

An Xiuyuan kicked Zuoqiu Shoubai in the shoulder and kicked him off the ox cart. Zuoqiu Shoubai did not dodge, and even deliberately relaxed the muscles in his shoulders, which not only gave An Xiuyuan kicking people in return, but also did not make him feel pain in his feet, and then rolled on the spot, hurriedly stood up, climbed into the ox cart, and knelt with his head bowed in the same posture just now.

Looking at this lovely man who serves himself wholeheartedly every night, An Xiuyuan is inevitably a little apologetic, after all, it is not Zuoqiu Shoubai's fault, but as a prince, it is impossible to apologize, snorted coldly, and said: "Pass the order, don't care about the people behind, and hurry back to Guangling City." With the city as the backing, the thief army can't attack it, and then calculate it later! ”

Before the Xuzhou army left the city, Tan Zhuo once advised that it was best to send scouts to help the ambush in the middle of the night, and carefully search the dangerous areas before the army passed. Helplessly, An Xiuyuan was stubborn and self-serving, thinking that what Shang Yong said in the letter was urgent, indicating that the Yangzhou army was attacking the city with all its might, and with their little strength, it was impossible to divide the troops, let alone shrink the ground into inches, and they ran to Guangling to set up an ambush in just two hours. Besides, if you really want to do what Tan Zhuo said, how can you have time to rescue Guazhou?

You can't even catch up with the heat when you eat!

Who would have thought that Tan Zhuo's crow beak was really answered, Zuoqiu Shoubai replied "Woo", left the ox cart backwards, and passed An Xiuyuan's order, and suddenly the army was in turmoil, those who abandoned the armor abandoned the armor, those who threw crossbows threw crossbows, and even many people threw knives and guns, only hated the slow running on two legs, and retreated in the direction of Guangling like a headless fly.

After walking only five miles, turning the foot of the mountain in front of him, An Xiuyuan was frightened out of the ox cart by the cry of "ambush, there are ambush soldiers". The first glimmer of brilliance that emerged from the sky was faintly sprinkled on the body of Bashandu in the middle of the road, gold lacquered iron armor, leather belt boots, as if a huge god came from eternity, staring at them coldly, as if looking at a dead person.

Because of his clear vision, and putting aside the natural fear of the night, An Xiuyuan was not very afraid, the enemies in front of him were only hundreds, and in addition to the 1,000 prestige capitals under his command, there were also 3,000 armor soldiers, even if each of them spat and foam, they could drown them.

"Rush, rush! Prestige, listen to my orders, whoever kills one person will be rewarded with ten thousand dollars! ”

There is no need to mobilize before the battle, everyone knows that if they don't rush over, they will die, and once they are caught up by the thief army behind, it will be difficult to escape back to Guangling.

Prestige is worthy of being the head of the elite of Xuzhou, the formation was completed in an instant, holding the spear with both hands, first hanging on the side of the crotch, rushing out of five steps and then the flat end to the intercostal area, and so on to the front of the mountain capital formation, full of strength mixed with the inertia of the forward rush, the spear stabbed out of the chest like lightning, straight to the enemy's heart and waist and abdomen.

Yan Yang stood at the front in armor, and when his prestige was more than halfway through, he said coldly: "Raise your sword!" ”

The first three rows of parts are raised diagonally upwards.

The enemy's face was already clearly visible, and the footsteps were like drumbeats, trampling neatly and violently on the heart lake, but it could not shake the mountain.

Yan Yang shouted: "Pull out the mountain! ”

Five hundred people roared in unison: "Pull out the mountain! ”

Split before the mountain knife!

Like a storm crashing on the shore, rolling up a thousand piles of snow.

The razor-sharp blade cut through the iron armor of Prestige, sliced through the ribcage of the shoulder blade, and slashed along the crotch. Almost in one face, more than 300 people were killed in the battle.

Broken nails!

"Enter!"

Five hundred people step forward, bam! The sound of landing was like a person, I don't know if it was an illusion, and the whole mountain road trembled a little.

"Raise your sword!"

Yan Yang's cold voice sounded again.

"Pull out the mountain!"

The mountain knife flashed with cold light.

The momentum is like a rainbow, devouring heaven and earth.

In just a few dozen breaths, simple knife, chop, knife, chop, precision like a machine, the prestige of Xuzhou for many years have all died under the knife, and the battle damage of the mountain capital is minimal.

Looking at the corpses that were cut in two all over the ground, bloody as hell on earth, the remaining three thousand armor soldiers were already frightened, as soon as they fought, it was like hitting a copper wall, the gun could not penetrate the opponent's armor, but their own guns were brittle like mud, whether it was psychological or physical, they could no longer hold on, and immediately the whole army collapsed, who cared about An Xiuyuan's order, and fled in all directions.

"Kneel on the ground and hold your head, and those who descend will not be killed!"

"Abandon the sword to avoid death, and treat the captives preferentially!"

……

"They are also Chu people, and they are originally robes."

"Abandon the darkness and turn to the light, or brothers!"

After the bloody battle, it was to attack the heart, and dozens of members of the Supervision Department shouted loudly, all of them were eloquent and rigorously trained, with strong voices, sincerity and moving, and full marks of appeal. Many people hesitated, either turning around and going to the battlefield where they were ambushed just now, or they separated and ran into the field indiscriminately, but the chances of survival were not high. If the other party keeps his promise and really surrenders and does not kill, he may be able to live.

The most important thing is that everyone is indeed of the same species and origin, dying in the hands of Suolu, dying without resentment, but dying in such a civil war, the death is aggrieved.

"I'm down!"

"Let's drop too!"

When the first person surrendered on his knees, the herd effect worked, five tens, one hundred and one thousand, and nearly two thousand people finally chose to surrender. Yan Yang divided two hundred people to take over the captives on the spot, and when he lost his fighting spirit, these people were not even as good as rabbits, and there was no threat, and he himself took the rest of the people to chase An Xiuyuan.

After the prestige was dead, he understood that the defeat was decided, but he also strictly ordered the remaining 3,000 armor soldiers to attack, just to delay time, with more than 20 noble children and 400 guards from the rice field next to him wading through the swamp that was not deep or shallow.

By the time Yan Yang got rid of these prisoners, An Xiuyuan had already run out five or six miles away, and his men were all heavily armed, so he couldn't catch up at all, and he could only come back after chasing for two or three miles, and if he was too far away from the brigade, maybe something would happen.

On the other side, there is still a fierce battle, although Tan Zhuo is the Sima of the Xuzhou Governor's Mansion, his reputation is not very big. Qing and Xu have not experienced war for many years, and Sima, who is in charge of military affairs, can be regarded as a civilian official who crossed the border and rose from the grassroots level step by step, and did not show much military talent.

But gold always shines, and when he fought with Xu You tonight, Tan Zhuo was not surprised, he responded exquisitely, commanding the defense line that was cut into several sections, and it seemed to be shaky, but he could always reorganize the resistance force, even at this moment, the reserve team with more than a thousand people in his hand was not put into the battle.

He is still waiting, waiting for Xu You's final hole card!

Zuo Yan whispered: "Why don't I go?" "There are still five hundred reserves behind the hillside, as for the tiger ear capital that has not yet participated in the war, it has only been a few days since the establishment of the capital, and there is no combat effectiveness, and those horses are still Xu You's baby bumps, and they are no longer in Zuo Yan's consideration.

Xu You shook his head and said, "I may not be able to personally command the battle every time, your position is here, you must learn to look at the overall situation, not obsessed with a corner." You see, Ming Jing has now eaten the front team, Tang Zhijian has also eaten the back team, and the middle is divided into three parts by Qi Xiao, with Tan Zhuo being the most numerous, and the most difficult to defeat. He ordered the three divisions to fight separately, but they were able to take care of each other, and Qi Xiao's division and encirclement seemed to be completed, but in fact, the tactical intention was not completely realized, which was also the biggest obstacle to our army's victory. ”

Zuo Yan understood in his heart and said: "So we must find a way to cut off Tan Zhuo's command, so that Ming Jing and Tang Zhijian can join forces and break in from the flank at any cost, forcing Tan Zhuo's general to retreat, as long as it can disturb for a while, Qi Xiao can catch the fighter, eat the other two first, and then gather and annihilate Tan Zhuo's troops......"

"This is the right way to use troops, but the casualties are too great for us to bear." Xu You's eyes narrowed slightly, and he said, "However, the Xuzhou army can't stand it anymore, Qingming!" ”

Qingming's figure disappeared in place.

"Win with the right fit! Zuo Yan, ordered the tiger ears to put on armor and get on the horse, told Jiao Meng, drag the branches behind the horse, carry the tiger flag behind him, line up from the hillside, after hearing the order, to shout loudly to charge, first slow down the horse, and then speed up, if the enemy collapses, immediately rein in the horse, feign pursuit, and must not make contact with the enemy! ”

"Whoa!"

The Xuzhou army was indeed on the verge of collapse as Xu You expected. Tan Zhuo tensed almost every piece of skin on his body, and what his brain thought about instantly exceeded the sum of the previous day, where to give up, where to counterattack, where to be a suspicious soldier, where to be the main force, he needed to make an accurate judgment in the blink of an eye, and then make targeted arrangements, if he was not careful, it would be the end of defeat and death.

But what made him helpless was that the enemy's combat effectiveness was far beyond imagination, and the number was at an absolute disadvantage, but he was well-equipped, well-trained, and took the lead, especially in terms of command, he was quite sophisticated, he deliberately opened his mouth several times, set a trap, and wanted to put some of them in and eat them, but the other party was not fooled.

Tan Zhuo raised his head and looked at the hillside not far away, and the fluttering Emerald Red Feather Shuai Banner told him that the enemy opposite him was Xu You's Emerald Feather Army. If the information is correct, Xu You used the farmers in Qiantang Tuntian to form the Cuiyu Army, but in a few months, how did he train such an elite soldier?

It's terrible!

"Sima, be careful!"

Qingming turned into a part of the Xuzhou army, and it could only blend in a hundred steps away from Tan Zhuo, and then there were layers of heavily guarded guards, which could not be approached at all. This is expected, if the commander of an army is so easily assassinated, then there is no need to fight, and a few more little grandmasters can win the victory.

Standing up, the iron ball in his sleeve was separated, and a large green poisonous mist was emitted after the air impact, Qingming deliberately said loudly: "Tan Zhuo, take the dog's life!" ”

Tan Zhuo immediately hugged dozens of people in front of him, round shields, standing shields, leather shields, and iron shields, overlapping and surrounding, and twenty Lei Gong crossbows were aimed at Qingming in the air, and in the piercing sound of breaking the air, Qingming was suddenly gone.

In the next moment, he appeared twenty steps away from Shuai Qi, Qingming broke the neck of an axeman, picked up the short axe, and threw it with all his strength.

The axe cut off the flagpole of the flag, and it fell down with a creak.

Before Tan Zhuo could react, he heard the shouts of the enemy all over the mountains: "Tan Zhuo is dead, Tan Zhuo is dead!" ”

Zuo Yan shouted loudly with the respect of the three grades, and the five hundred reserves shouted, and the sound really resounded through the four fields, and he could hear it even if he covered his ears. The Xuzhou army, who was fighting desperately, subconsciously turned his head to look, and sure enough, he saw that the general flag that had been standing still was gone, and when he was shocked, he heard the neighing of the war horse.

"Outfitting...... Equipment, that's ...... Mounted cavalry ......"

The power of mounted cavalry is known to the world, and when these tightly armored beasts are wrapped from head to toe, it means that death and defeat come at the same time.

Tan Zhuo died, and the costume appeared,

Jiao Meng bluffed and began to gallop on his horse, the dust and smoke were billowing and the tiger flag was flying, and he didn't know how many cavalry there were for a while. This became the last straw that overwhelmed the psychological defense line, and the Xuzhou army finally couldn't hold on.

First one, then two, and finally even Tan Zhuo couldn't control the soldiers in the department, and began to retreat unorganized. Xu You, who had been prepared for a long time, ordered Zuo Yan to lead the reserve team to cover the past, and the fighting spirit and physical strength of the new force were at the peak, and the retreat turned into escape, and the escape turned into a rout.

Throughout the ages, most casualties in wars have come from the pursuit after a rout, and even if Wu Qi Hanxin was alive, he was powerless in the face of a completely defeated army.

The winner is decided!

The devastated scene after the war was unbearable, Xu You crossed countless corpses to the battlefield next to the Dongcheng River, Tan Zhuo, who was tied into a dumpling, knelt in front of him, his expression was not annoyed, nor ashamed, and said calmly: "General Xu is well versed in the art of war, and I am convinced of defeat." Whether it's killing or cutting, listen to it! ”

Xu You untied the rope for him with his own hands, and said earnestly: "Tan Sima is like a god with soldiers, I admire it very much, this defeat is not the fault of the king, but just the lack of luck." If it was a different place, I wouldn't be able to hold out for even half an hour, but Tan Sima resisted for two hours, which is really rare. ”

Tan Zhuo was not hypocritical, he stood up with Xu You's support, raised his eyes and looked around, his face was miserable, like a mourning exam, and said: "These are all good men in Jiangdong, they didn't die on the way to the Northern Expedition, but they died here......"

Xu You was also sad and said: "Chang Di's Hua is like a brother." in the same room, kiss the pain and hatred! However, An Xiuming killed his father and usurped the throne, slaughtered his brothers, betrayed morality and lost his righteousness, and if he did not get rid of this fang, it would be difficult for the Chu country to be safe, so my generation was willing to take great risks and fight to the death. Tan Sima is loyal to the country, whether it is the king of Jiangxia or the king of Linchuan, he sincerely hopes that you can follow the general trend and participate in the grand event to calm the people. ”

Tan Zhuo has never looked down on An Xiuyuan's virtues, and this time he escaped from the battle, he was even more disheartened, and immediately bowed his head and said: "General Meng will not give up, I am willing to obey the dispatch, and from now on, I will be unswerving!" ”

After subduing Tan Zhuo and starting to clean up the battlefield, the Xuzhou army killed 8,000 people, wounded more than 2,000 people, captured nearly 16,000 people, and captured countless grains, grasses, heavy armor, knives, guns, arrows and crossbows.

"Dare to ask the military commander, will you attack Jinling after this battle, or will you go through Luoqing and Xu?"

Tan Zhuo asked, it can be seen that he is not only tactically powerful, but also has a unique strategic vision, Xu You did not hide it from him, and said: "Jinling has its own Jingzhou army, and I was ordered to occupy Qing and Xu." ”

"Then it will be difficult to do, the Sixth Highness has successfully escaped, if we stick to Guangling, it will not be easy to take it with our little strength. Even if you can take it, the Sixth Highness can also take a boat along the ditch north to Huaiyin, and then call the counties to come to help in Pengcheng, and back to Qingzhou, at that time we are deep in the quagmire, and it may not be able to pacify Xuzhou after spending years. ”

Xu You smiled: "What Sima said is extremely true! So An Xiuyuan must not let go, if he doesn't go back to Guangling, if he goes back to Guangling, he has his own way to let him be captured! ”

Tan Zhuo was full of excitement, and said in surprise: "The military commander and the strange soldiers? Could it be that he has already captured Guangling City? ”

Xu You smiled and said nothing!
