Yuan Shang didn't plan to have a real decisive battle from the beginning, and the judge didn't recommend him to fight a decisive battle.

The reason is simple.

The number of Bingzhou troops fighting in the Jizhou area was limited, except for the 20,000 troops stationed in Yecheng who could not be mobilized, and the troops on hand were less than 20,000, including 5,000 chariots. If you throw all of them into the battlefield, even if you win, you will pay a certain price. And Yuan Tan still has 100,000 troops. After repelling Yuan Xi, he will inevitably control Jizhou.

What is the purpose of the decisive battle?

In order to control Jizhou, in order to rush the materials of Yecheng, if all the troops are lost here, how can the ultimate goal be achieved?

Yes, Yuan Shang threw a strict order in advance!

In the decisive battle, do not advance but retreat!

After the battle between Yuan Tan and Yuan Xi is over, depending on the extent of their casualties, they will advance and retreat. If the casualties are serious and they are no longer able to fight, they will destroy the remnants of Yuan Tan and Yuan Xi in one fell swoop. Otherwise, it is ready to return and merge with the state.

on the battlefield.

Because of Yuan Shang's non-cooperation, Yuan Tan's 80,000 Qingzhou troops were in a dangerous situation.

The javelins shot by the heavy ballista could easily penetrate the armor and horses of the soldiers, and even kill the enemy continuously, causing heavy damage to Yuan Tan's 20,000 light horsemen.

But.

Heavy ballistas cannot move flexibly, shoot accurately, and stop a large-scale attack by enemy cavalry.

After only five rounds, it had to be stopped.

Jiao Touch twisted the black iron spear, stood in front of the righteous army, and shouted: "Soldiers, the time has come to make meritorious contributions. Cavalry against cavalry, see if the enemy's cavalry is strong, or our cavalry is strong! ”

"Kill me!"

"Kill..." 10,000 righteous light cavalry from the army, with Jiao Touch from the front to meet Yuan Tan's light cavalry. Although the number is not as good as the enemy, the 10,000 war horses of the righteous army have all been strengthened by Yuan Xi, and the speed, explosiveness and endurance of the forward rush are extremely strong. The Wuhuan soldiers are even better at riding and shooting, fighting bravely, and are not afraid of enemy horses.

"Childe..."

Zhang Jaw came to Yuan Xi and said, "A thousand heavy chariots, ready to attack at any time." ”

"Although the power of the equipment is strong, it cannot be moved, and the height of the shot cannot be changed. The heavy ballista just now only fired five wheels, and it was useless. Moreover, all the horses were shot. I knew this thing was so, so why should I use it? Yuan Xi was very dissatisfied with the effect of the heavy ballista.

"I hope that heavy combat vehicles can play a certain role."

"Childe rest assured. The heavy chariot is a large chariot pulled by four horses, and its role is not only to kill the enemy from a high position, but also to besiege, break the formation, and completely restrain the enemy's infantry army. Jaw opened and replied.

"Hmm."

Yuan Xi nodded.

Yu Bandao: "It's no wonder that during the battle of Guandu, Yuan Gong didn't carry large equipment. Heavy chariots and heavy ballistae were used to defend the city, but large battles lacked their flexibility, and most importantly, they were inconvenient to transport, delaying the journey of the entire army. ”

"You're right..."

Yuan Xi retracted his mind, raised his head and said, "Listen." After the victory and defeat were decided between the Yi Congjun and Yuan Tan's light cavalry, Zhang Jaw led the heavy chariot team and pushed forward. General Yu prepared to start a full-scale offensive. I will take the mammoth and the King Kong giant ape into battle at the right time, and strive to defeat Yuan Tan in one go. Also, a force must be left behind to guard against Yuan Shang on the flank, don't be taken advantage of by him. ”

"Yes."

The two answered.

Thundered...

The Jiao Touch's righteous army and Yuan Tan's light cavalry collided together and started a fierce hand-to-hand combat.

The battle was fierce and the scale was huge.

The soldiers on both sides were screaming, weapons intertwining, clashing, and struggling to the last of their strength.

"The enemy will be there, kill it!" Yuan Tan's general, Wang Zhao, discovered Jiao Touch.

"Good time!"

Jiao Touch also saw Wang Zhao, he was not afraid, and drove his horse forward, and the black iron spear continued to stab.

Bell, bell, bell...

Wang Zhao held the shield in his left hand and the war knife in his right hand, resisting the attack of Jiao Touch, and also quickly counterattacked.

Their battles were fought in a chaotic battlefield and attracted the attention of many people.

Burst!

Just ten moves...

The scorched black iron spear stabbed into Wang Zhao's left arm, knocking out his shield.

"Hahaha... That's all you do. Jiao Fu realized that his martial arts were stronger than Wang Zhao, and he was extremely happy in his heart, and attacked even more frantically, wanting to kill Wang Zhao.

"Ahh

Wang Zhao endured the pain and retreated.

Jiao Touch didn't catch up, so he had to give up first. However, the soldiers around him saw that Wang Zhao was not Jiao's opponent. Youzhou's war horses are also stronger than their war horses. The riding skills of the Wuhuan cavalry are even more unattainable for them.

A long time has passed...

Yuan Shanghe, who withdrew from the battlefield, moved to the flank with the Bingzhou army.

On a small hillside.

Yuan Shang looked down at the battlefield, and suddenly raised his hand and said, "Sir, look, Yuan Tan's cavalry is beginning to retreat." ”

"yes..."

The judge took a deep breath and said, "Yuan Xi's 10,000 light cavalry is Wuhuan's righteous army, and its combat effectiveness is extremely strong. Coupled with the javelins of the heavy ballista, it was difficult to win by inflicting heavy losses on Yuan Tan's cavalry in advance. ”

"So what do we do?"

"Wait a little longer..."

The judge said: "When all of Yuan Xi's troops are put into the battlefield, it will depend on the situation." or assist the battlefield, or lie in ambush outside the battlefield, looking for opportunities to destroy the enemy. In short, we can't get into this quagmire too early. If you want to fight, you have to win. ”

"Hmm."

Yuan Shang also clearly knew that his military strength was neither comparable to Yuan Tan nor Yuan Xi. The only chance is to wait for Yuan Tan and Yuan Xidou to lose, so that he can sit back and reap the benefits.

With the defeat of Yuan Tan's light cavalry....

The battle was carried out to the final stage.

"Kill..." Yuan Tan roared angrily. The 60,000 foot soldiers behind him were all thrown into the battlefield and pressed towards Yuan Xi's army formation. I want to rely on the advantage of numbers to save the defeat.

"Heavy convoy, charge!" Standing on a heavy chariot, he gave the order to attack.

Thundered...

A thousand heavy combat vehicles, forming a queue, advanced in parallel.

The enemy soldiers along the way and the Jiao Touch's righteous army were oppressed, and they rushed in the direction of Yuan Tan on a large scale.

"Brothers, victory or defeat is here. Kill with me! Yu Ban rode a strengthened black horse, and also waved his spear and roared. A full 40,000 foot soldiers rushed to the opposite side with him.

There are still 10,000 people left, guarding against Yuan Shang on the flank...

The entire battlefield was boiling, and almost all of them participated in the battle.

Yuan Xi also rode onto the back of the mammoth, ready to strike at the right time.
