There were about two troops dispatched by the Donghu army, and more than 100,000 people did not go out on the whole line, but took turns to step forward and shoot, compressing and attacking the Wei army's front step by step.

On the entire front that spans the north and south, the two sides come and go, the flags are fluttering, the first soldiers are fighting hard, forgetting their lives, and the red Wei army and the black Donghu army are like large ant colonies, biting each other and fighting in the long section.

Li Guorui saw that the long trench near the camp from Jinzhou to the front army was also filled, and a large number of Donghu soldiers held foot bows and Chang Jin's hands stepped forward to fight, half of the Wei army guarded the barracks, and half guarded the long gate and arrow tower outside, and the Donghu soldiers moved away from the horses and antlers, and then did not send cavalry, but still continued to move forward with a large number of foot armor soldiers, and the defense of the periphery of the Wei army's camp was basically filled in and emptied after half a day of fighting.

At least more than 3,000 Donghu soldiers were killed in battle, and there will be thousands of casualties, in addition, the Han slaves also died at least more than 10,000 people, and at the most anxious and fierce time, Ding Yu of the Donghu army also stepped forward to fill the trenches, and paid the price of at least thousands of casualties.

From this point alone, Li Guorui and Yue Zhi can also see that the Donghu army is bound to win this battle, and today's battle is not a tentative outpost battle, but a decisive battle related to life and death.

But Li Guorui and Yue Zhi were not nervous...... As previously said, under the premise that the numbers, strength, and equipment of the two armies are about the same, it is impossible to distinguish the victory or defeat in a day of fierce fighting, the entire front of the Wei army is more than ten miles, and the depth is nearly forty miles, even if the outpost battle is lost, it is also dented, the left wing of the two wings is Jinzhou City, and the right wing is Yushui, and the Donghu army has no way to use cavalry to complete the outflanking.

If the forward is defeated, it is what Li Guorui hopes, the Chinese army is more good at defending Yue Zhi, Yue Zhi's style of leading troops is as stable as a rock, the array is also set up more reasonable and efficient, and his command and deployment are much better than ordinary generals.

The Chinese army is called Yue Zhi and the vigorous Donghu Iron Cavalry Mill, which is bound to form a flesh and blood grinding plate, and then gradually strengthen the two wings, but there is Li Youde himself in Jinzhou City, and more than 10,000 cavalry of the six armies under his command are also there, once the Donghu Army falls into the quagmire of the Chinese army and the two wings, Li Youde is the most critical winner. Rushed out of Jinzhou City, directly attacked the Donghu Formation, chaotic rear camp, such as a storm raided by, and then swept back, if Donghu is willing to divide the victory or defeat here, a gamble on the luck of the clan, Li Guorui also does not mind completely annihilating the main force of Donghu here, or at least cut off its arms, after which not only can restrict Donghu from invading Dawei again, it can even be said that Donghu will be disabled, and from then on, it will no longer be a threat at all.

Li Guorui was also wearing a military uniform at this time, his face seemed calm, but his hands were clenched into fists.

"I don't feel right." Yue Zhi frowned and said, "The enemy army has set up such a large formation, but it has never dispatched cavalry, let alone its heavy cavalry. On several occasions, they could seize the opportunity, and if the cavalry broke forward, it was very likely that they would break through to the side of the Chinese army, but they never did so. If you don't plan to break through, why send out a large army to squeeze the front line between our front army and Jinzhou? ”

Li Guorui pondered for a moment and said: "Chechen Khan is not a fool, and the faces under his command are not stupid. It can be seen that our front is deep and wide, and we are not willing to rush into a surprise attack, but are willing to continue to attack on the front line to kill ......."

Li Guorui shook his head slightly, but also denied his judgment.

If the Donghu people are afraid of the pocket formation, then they will not attack at all. Since he came to attack, fill in the trenches and clear the obstacles, all the defenses in front of him should not be looked at, he should dispatch all the cavalry, rush forward, and smash on the Wei army's military formation like a mallet!

What if Li Guorui sets up the array? The palace tent army of the Donghu people has about 30,000 heavy cavalry, and more than 20,000 are wearing multiple iron armors, holding horse lances, long guns, giant axes, and long knives.

There are more than 10,000 heavy cavalry, all of them are wearing armor, they are holding a lot of heavy iron spears that grow out of the ordinary long guns, they are the strongest strong men in the Donghu cavalry, from the two wings of the surprise attack, with heavy guns to break through the array, around the flank of the military formation, assault the Wei army's archers and crossbowmen formation, with the iron cavalry in the middle to kill, the Wei army array is broken, this kind of heavy cavalry known as the kidnapping horse is the most efficient killing machine.

And the most feared by the Wei army was the 3,000 Tiefutu in the palace tent army.

Donghu cavalry, from a young age can ride a horse gallop shooting, and everyone can be called a marksman, its tribe is fishing and hunting for a living, riding a horse hunting is a life skill, even a survival skill. Just as the Han teenager can work in the field since he was a child, can shoot pigweed, herd cattle, and hoe the grass with a hoe, Donghu teenager, can walk and ride a horse, can get on the horse and begin to learn to ride and shoot, less than ten years old, it is not a problem to hunt prey with his own hands, to grow up, I don't know how many prey shot on horseback, and how many times I have participated in actual combat, except for a few people with brain problems, or physical disabilities, shooting a fixed target 100 shots and 100 hits, moving the target 78 out of 10 is quite a normal level.

In addition to riding and shooting, it is mainly meat-based, boiling muscles and bones, exercising the body, and constantly fighting on the battlefield to improve one's strength, master weapons such as guns, lances, knives, and reaction speed.

The fighters who can survive many fierce battles are undoubtedly the best among the Donghu men.

The heavy cavalry is the best soldier among the 200,000 Donghu soldiers, only the best soldier can become the palace tent army, and in the palace tent army, only the stronger ones will become heavy cavalry and kidnapping horses.

Among the 30,000 cavalry, only about 3,000 people will become the Iron Float, the best and heaviest iron armor are attributed to the Iron Float, and the war horse is also the strongest horse for the Iron Float, and the war horse is also fully armored. Tiefutu is dressed in multiple iron armor, wearing a hood, an iron mask, only showing his eyes, holding a heavy iron gun and iron bones, people and horses are like iron towers, Tiefutu is originally the meaning of the iron tower in the Buddhist scriptures. It can be said that the iron floating slaughter of Donghu is the most sophisticated armored iron horse left in China after the end of the Tang Dynasty, the armored iron horse reached its peak in the Northern and Southern Dynasties, and there were a considerable number of armored iron horses before the middle of the Tang Dynasty, after the middle of the Tang Dynasty, the country's financial resources were exhausted, the feudal towns fought each other, and the armored iron cavalry gradually disappeared, until the rise of Donghu, with all the financial resources of its small country, it only raised such a 3,000 armored iron horse!

At the time of the 30,000 heavy cavalry assault, in the plains, the Wei army had to be at least three times more than it, plus the defense facilities such as the antlers of the horse rejection, with a large number of strong bows, strong crossbows, and bed crossbows, in order to defend the palace.

On the battlefield in front of them, Li Guorui and Yue Zhi used one camp after another, constantly digging ditches in the middle, arranging defensive facilities, erecting fences, setting up arrow towers, and using various methods to reduce the impact of the enemy's heavy cavalry.

If the Wei army wanted to confront Tiefutu face to face, it would also be under great pressure, but judging from the current situation, the Donghu army chose to fight, but cautiously retained the victory

Losing hands, this is not at all like Chechen Khan's style.

Yue Zhi thought for a while and said, "Could it be that the Donghu people want to press forward, and then free up their hands to fight Jinzhou?" ”

After finishing speaking, Yue Zhi also shook his head and said, "It may not be that they have the arrogance to attack the city in front of the formation, this is too dangerous." ”

Indeed, Jinzhou City is only a few miles away, there are more than 30,000 Wei forbidden troops in the city, the number of people and the box army is negligible, the city has prepared a large number of defensive equipment and grain and grass, even if it is hastily surrounded, under the premise of having draft water, there is a large army visible to the naked eye, the morale of the defenders in Jinzhou City can be imagined, if you want to storm the city, at least three to five times the number of troops, go all out to attack day and night, bear the soil for the mountain, Guangli is higher than the city wall, build a large number of rushing cars, ladders, all siege equipment are used, so that under the strong attack, no casualties are counted, so that it is possible to capture it in a short time.

If the Wei army used all the main force to force the siege of the city, and the Wei army cooperated inside and outside the city with all the main force, then the Donghu army would have a lot of fun, and if it didn't get it right, it would have to withdraw from the siege in embarrassment, morale would plummet, and the battle would be over.

Li Guorui said with a solemn face: "The change of success or failure is at this hour below." ”

Although it is already late spring, it is still early to get dark at night in Liaoxi, and it is now the end of the day, and there will be one hour at most before the sky will be dark.

In this era, the night vision ability of the Donghu people is stronger than that of the Wei people, because their meat intake is more, and they can eat more animal offal, even so, the night vision ability must not be compared with later generations, after dark, unless both sides are torches, otherwise they have to slowly withdraw from the battlefield.

The risk of night battles is too great, full of uncertain factors, and the commanders of both sides will not choose night battles unless they have to. Gan Ning's night attack on the enemy camp is a legend through the ages, but for thousands of years, people think of the night attack and break the camp, which is nothing more than Gan Xingba.

On the high platform, Li Guorui's robe was blown by the wind, and his whole person looked extremely thin because he was too tired, and he was blown by the wind like this, and he felt a little trembling, and on the entire high platform, in addition to the sanitation soldiers, there were dozens of staff officials who accompanied the army, and these people were also silent, and on the high platform, it was still silent.

Yue Zhi shook his head secretly, this battle was expected, but the development of the battle situation was completely out of control, which made people feel faintly uneasy.

"The enemy's main force is moving." Li Guorui's face moved, and he pointed to the last trench in front of the front army's tent, which covered the front camp and sheltered the passage to Jinzhou, once it was broken by a surprise attack here, it meant that the front of Jinzhou City would be cut off, and the connection between the army and Jinzhou would also be severed.

Yue Zhi's expression also changed, and he said in a deep voice: "Chechen Khan is crazy, and Wanyan De is also crazy?" In such a foot battle, the losses will be heavy, no cavalry rush, use foot combat to cut off the connection between the army in the front camp and Jinzhou City, they really want to attack the city under the main force of our army? ”

If the Donghu people cut off Jinzhou and the army, and then conquer Jinzhou, there is no doubt that they will occupy the initiative in the war, but how is this possible?

There was a passionate drum beat in the distance, and at the end of the battle, the Donghu people finally showed their fangs, this time it was the elite of each tribe that was dispatched, and the ordinary soldiers who shot in front of them avoided the road, and a large number of tribal elites quickly entered the battlefield. These armored Donghu soldiers are striding forward, arriving at a hundred steps before and after to bear the crossbow, bow washing, these people are walking like flying, from the perspective of the high platform, these Donghu soldiers are wearing bulging quivers, holding iron spears long, walking like flying, to a hundred steps, heard the sound of the conch horn, is to twist the fingers together to draw out the arrows, and then raise the bow to shoot up.
