Chapter 19: Old Hatred and New Hatred (3)
"Strange Ji Fa, what is he going to do?" Hirayama asked.
"What should we do, King?" The captain of the soldier came to him on horseback and asked.
Pingshan didn't have time to think about it and said: "Pass the order, grab a piece of Ji Fa's reward fief, and enjoy five hundred tributes." ”
"The king has a decree to seize a piece of Ji Fa's reward fief and enjoy five hundred households in tribute." The captain of the soldiers rode through the whole army on horseback to convey the will of King Pingshan.
"Mighty and mighty!" The morale of the soldiers of Pingshan Country was greatly boosted, and they drove all the horses to accelerate, chasing Ji Fa's soldiers and horses.
Ji Fa drove the war horse and led the team to gallop on the hillside, only to hear the shouts of killing behind the sky, and the sound gradually approached.
A captain of the army rode to report to us: "Report to the king, the five hundred soldiers led by the king of Pingshan have all followed us, and all of them have now gone up the mountain." ”
"Okay, give the order to go down, the whole army will go straight to the top of the mountain, and those who are sluggish on the march will be killed!" Ji Fa said majestically.
"Yes, my lord." Soon all the soldiers of Ji Fa received this will, and immediately the soldiers of the whole army were invigorated, and all of them rode their horses and accelerated towards the top of the mountain.
In the Ding Guobing team not far away, Ding Chenyang was paying attention to the situation of the two sides, and he was also very puzzled, why didn't he fight directly, but ran to the hillside.
"Pass the order, the whole army will pay attention to the movements of the two armies, all the scouts will be sent up, and all the moves will be reported to me."
"It's the king." Ding Guo's scout gates all rode out and went to keep an eye on the movement on the hillside.
But when they were in the Ding State Army, what they didn't know was that Taigong wanted all the soldiers to dismount, put away the halberd, drew out the long sword, and quietly moved behind the Ding State Army with branches in their mouths.
All the 800 soldiers and horses led by Ji Fa reached the top of the mountain.
"The whole army turned around and faced the Pingshan National Army."
Soon Ji Fa's troops were all facing, and the Pingshan National Troops below, seeing the Pingshan National Troops from a distance, kept climbing up the mountain, but the speed was getting slower and slower.
Ji Fa thought proudly: "The art of war is full of spirit, the soldier attacks the tired soldier, and the condescending soldier hits the soldier he looks up to, and he will definitely be able to break the enemy and win." ”
He was waiting, waiting for his eight hundred soldiers and horses to rest, just waiting for the soldiers of the Pingshan Kingdom who climbed up the mountain below, when they were physically exhausted and exhausted, it was when the opportunity came, and he closed his eyes to recuperate.
The horses in the Zhou national army just climbed the mountain and consumed a lot of physical strength, and they were all panting at this time, and the soldiers were marching in a hurry just now, and they would also be able to take a breath, because Ji Fa led the soldiers to go up the mountain first, this time was enough time for the soldiers and horses to rest.
The scouts of the Zhou State observed the movement on the hillside, as well as the Ding State troops in front, and returned to report to Taigongwang.
"Taigong, all the eight hundred troops led by the king have reached the top of the mountain, and the troops of the Pingshan Kingdom are crawling."
Taigong Wang is familiar with military books and has a deep understanding of the six Taos and three strategies, and he understands the meaning of the king at a glance.
"The king is not only virtuous, but also has attainments in the art of war, no need to monitor, just wait for our war, immediately report to the king, you first go to a place where no one will be discovered, and when the battle situation is clear, immediately run to the king's side to report."
"Yes, Taigong." The scout rode away from the team led by Taigongwang first.
Taigongwang was watching the movements of the troops on the top of the mountain, he was waiting for an opportunity, waiting for an opportunity, he knew that he only had one chance, and once he missed this perfect opportunity, there would be no more such a good opportunity on the battlefield.
Ji Fa looked at the sun above his head, and then looked at the movement of the Pingshan National Soldiers under the hillside, and saw that the Pingshan National Soldiers were moving slowly, obviously their physical strength was gone, and he looked at his soldiers again, all of them were majestic and high-spirited, and he felt that the time was right.
He drew his long sword and pointed it at the sky and shouted: "Defend our land from violation, and the whole army will follow me to kill the enemy." ”
Ji Fa rode a horse and rushed down first, the soldiers of the Zhou State were infected, at this time the soldiers beat the drums and cheered, the sound of the horn shook the sky, the soldiers of the Zhou State all rushed up, and rode from the top of the mountain to the soldiers of the Pingshan State below, the speed was very fast.
When the soldiers of Pingshan Country were about to reach the top of the mountain, they were physically exhausted, some were lying on the side of the road to rest, some were panting, but their feet could not take a step, even the horses after a violent and rapid march, they could not move the soldiers, Pingshan himself was tired, just wanted to order the whole army to rest, suddenly shouted that the sound of killing shook the sky, there was a sound of landslides and cracks from above, he looked up and was shocked, he drew his long sword and shouted.
"Quick, prepare to meet the enemy, get on the horse to meet the enemy." Hirayama shouted.
At this time, the soldiers of Pingshan Country were in a panic, some hurriedly got on their horses and fell, some did not even have the strength to hold the halberd, and some could not even stand, and when they heard the enemy killing, although they were in a hurry to die, they had no choice but to lose their physical strength, at this time.
The soldiers of the Zhou State have been killed, condescending to the troops of the Pingshan State below, the halberd raised by the soldiers of the Zhou State directly penetrated many soldiers of the Pingshan Kingdom, and some of the soldiers of the Zhou State rushed to the side of the soldiers of the Pingshan Kingdom, and the soldiers of the Pingshan Kingdom did not even pick up their weapons, just like lambs, and let the soldiers of the Zhou State slaughter.
In the Ding national army not far away, he saw that the troops of the two sides rushed together, and he was very anxious to wait for the result, and at this time the scout came from not far away.
"Here, get ready."
"Report~" Before the word scout of Ding Guo was shouted, the soldiers of Zhou State, who had been ambushed in advance, pierced their throats with halberds, and the horses also fell into the trap.
Taigong saw that the time had come, waved the order flag and commanded two hundred soldiers to rush straight to the Ding State Army, just now for a long time of lurking and moving, the two hundred soldiers led by Taigong Wang had already arrived, the rear of the Ding State Army, the attention of the whole army of the Ding State Army, all of them were placed on the top of the mountain not far away, and they did not pay any attention to the Zhou soldiers lurking behind them.
Before some of the soldiers of the Ding State had time to turn back, they had already been pierced through the chest by the halberds in the hands of the soldiers of the Zhou State, and some were directly pierced through the heart.
Ding Chenyang, the monarch of Ding State, was shocked and hurriedly ordered the whole army to turn around to meet the enemy, but the 200 soldiers led by Taigongwang had already been killed with the soldiers of Ding State and could not be separated.
On the other side of the battle, the seven hundred soldiers of the Zhou State on the top of the mountain, whether in terms of number, momentum, physical strength, geographical advantage and people, are superior to the soldiers of the Pingshan State, plus the soldiers of the Pingshan State have been exhausted in their long-distance attack, and the soldiers of the Zhou State led by Ji Fa have been raided and killed, and they have been defeated into an army, and the casualties have been scattered.
"Report, king, we have annihilated all the soldiers of Pingshan Country, and the Lord of Pingshan Country is fleeing."
Ji Fa was delighted: "Immediately send a team of elite soldiers to hunt down the lord of Pingshan, and the rest of the soldiers went straight to the Ding State soldiers at the bottom of the mountain, and the whole army and the Taigong Wang soldiers jointly slashed and killed the Ding State soldiers, and the whole army assaulted!" ”
Ji Fa ordered the horns and drums to cheer, and all the soldiers of the Zhou State on the top of the mountain rushed to the Ding State army.
Ding Chenyang, the lord of Ding, saw the soldiers led by Taigongwang, unstoppable, and retreated, when he just ordered the soldiers to retreat, he just caught up with the soldiers of Zhou led by Ji Fa, and the soldiers of Zhou were in front of and behind, and the soldiers of Ding were caught in the middle and could not move, and soon the three troops converged into a group, and there were Zhou soldiers everywhere, and there was no hope of breaking through in front of the soldiers of Ding, some were directly pierced to death, some were directly dropped their weapons and surrendered on their knees, and some were desperately running out, but they were stabbed to death before they could go out of the formation.
