After Bu Qi received the order, he immediately led his army to meet the Wei army, and he rode his horse and shouted loudly as he walked: "Spear formation!" Spears in formation! ”

Most of the soldiers of the Wu army were veterans who had experienced several battles of Wu and Wei, and at this time, some people shouted spears to form a formation, and they immediately formed a phalanx one by one, as if after conditioned reflex.

Of course, the Wu army could not be all pikemen, so the formation of a phalanx was not pure pikemen, but also archers and sword and shield soldiers.

After the formation of the phalanx, the periphery of the four sides is naturally pikemen, in the gap between the pikemen, it is protected by sword and shield soldiers, the purpose is to protect the phalanx from the attack of bows and arrows, and the innermost archers, in the chaos of the army, is the most vulnerable of a class, if once the protection is lost, the archers are nearby, almost only tragically ravaged.

The pikemen phalanx protected the archers, and also made the archers have a place to use, and could carry out long-range strikes, even if the enemy's cavalry was strong, it would have to face the attack of the archers, and the cavalry would inevitably suffer corresponding losses for each impact.

After the formation of each phalanx, the Wu army slowly advanced forward, and the smaller phalanxes would merge into larger phalanxes on their own.

The spear phalanx is not said to be as big as possible, although a large phalanx can increase the defense area, but relatively speaking, the larger the phalanx, the worse the coordination will be, and the mobility will be smaller, so the most ideal configuration of the phalanx is generally four or five hundred people, and the three arms are organically matched to form such a spear phalanx, which is the most ideal.

This new combat mode of the Wu army still played a considerable role in changing the situation on the battlefield, and the spear phalanx effectively stifled the impact of the cavalry, so that the cavalry no longer rampage so unscrupulously, and avoided the Wu army from suffering greater losses.

Of course, the spear phalanx only focuses on defense in the role of restraining the cavalry, and it is extremely impossible to talk about counterattacks, if the enemy cavalry does not attack, the spear phalanx can only be an ornament in the end, and will not cause any substantial damage to the cavalry troops.

Unless the enemy cavalry is still desperate to charge, then long-range archers and short-range pikemen will kill and wound the cavalry, causing the enemy cavalry to suffer great losses.

Therefore, after Wen Qin saw the Wu army change its formation, he ordered the cavalry to adapt to the situation, and no longer use the mode of strong attack and hard fighting.

In this way, the main force fighting with the Wu army became infantry, and the two sides balanced their offense and defense, and the battle fell into a stalemate.

At this moment, Zhuge Jin flawlessly took care of the behind, the Wei army erected four pontoon bridges on the Huai River, through the pontoon bridges, the Wei army was constantly arriving on the south bank, as time went by, the Wei army crossing the Huai River was more and more, and if it was delayed for another hour and a half, the Wei army crossing the river would inevitably double, and at that time Zhuge Jin wanted to deal with the soldiers crossing the river, it was obviously much more difficult.

Now, taking advantage of the small number of people, it was the Wu army that took advantage of its large numbers to annihilate the Wei army that had crossed the river on the spot, and drove the Wei army that was crossing the river back to the north bank.

Therefore, Zhuge Jin ignored the army behind, but put almost all the troops that could be mobilized into the attack, trying to rely on the attack to destroy the Wei army's plan to cross the river.

The battle soon began in full swing, and the temporary defensive place built by the Wei army when crossing the river was quickly broken through by the Wu army, and the two sides immediately fell into hand-to-hand combat, and the battle situation was very tragic, the entire Anfeng ferry was as if it was stained with blood, and the corpses were spread all over the ground, and it was impossible to distinguish which one was the Wei army's and which one was the Wu army.

When the Wei army commanded the battle on the south bank of the Huai River, it was the general Niu Jin, when he and Xiahou Xuan argued about the sneak attack mission, Sima Yi said that he had another important use, and Sima Yi's words naturally had weight, and Niu Jin became the supreme commander on the south bank, and went to the front line in person to start a fierce battle with the Wu army.

Zhuge Jin and Quan Cong finally met, and the Eastern and Western Route Armies were also completely integrated, mighty and magnificent.

Quan Cong had also noticed the changes on the side of the Western Route Army for a long time, but the two sides were separated by a certain distance, and Quan Cong couldn't figure out the situation.

Zhuge Jin told the truth that there was a Wei army of about 30,000 people who tried to sneak attack the Wu army from behind, but Zhuge Jin had already given in and led his troops to stop it, which would not have any impact on the Wu army's siege of the Wei army's river-crossing army.

Quan Cong frowned when he heard this, and said, "It seems that our army's plan to attack halfway has been broken by Sima Yi, what should we do next?" ”

Zhuge Jin said disapprerovingly: "On the battlefield, there will always be things other than accidents, now General Bu has led his troops to drag this Wei army, as long as we unite and resolutely annihilate the Wei soldiers who have passed the Huaishui, it is not too late to turn around and clean up that Wei army." ”

Zhuge Jin still has his own confidence, this time he and Quan Cong were ordered to come to Anfengdu, but with an army of 130,000. In terms of numbers, it surpassed Sima Yi's 100,000 army, and there were also 50,000 troops of Zhuge Ke, who was not far from An Fengdu, and could also be reinforced at any time.

With such an overwhelming advantage in troops, Zhuge Jin would not care whether his own strategy was seen through by the enemy, and at a critical time, his strength was above all else.

Zhuge Jin commanded the army and launched a fierce attack on the ferry in turn, Zhuge Jin and Quan Cong both stood behind to supervise the battle, and those who cowered, had a low momentum, and bewitched the public, all of them were punished on the spot!

This kind of iron-blooded method is obviously very effective, and the soldiers of the Wu army have no way to retreat, so they can only fight forward and fight with the Wei army.

In Sima Yi's hands, there are still tens of thousands of troops, but the pontoon bridge is not wide, and only one person can pass through at a time, although the four pontoon bridges seem to be a lot, but now the battle in front of them is so tragic, only four or five people can be passed at a time, and the efficiency is still seriously insufficient, and the troops invested in it are far more than consumed. The Wei army was always at a disadvantage in terms of strength on the south bank of Anfengdu, and the situation was extremely difficult to fight against the Wu army, which was several times its size.

Therefore, on the south bank of Anfengdu, the Wei army has always been suppressed, although Niu Jin tried his best to command the army to build a defensive line, but this time the Wu army's attack power was extremely strong, there was no respite at all, and after a long time of fierce fighting, Niu Jin gradually lost his support, and could not resist the enemy, and the situation of the Wei army became dangerous.
