Qianqian, the fastest update of the latest chapter of Han Tianzi!

When the narrow road meets, the brave wins. Head-to-head, fighting is a morale, fighting is a heart. Before the official confrontation, Wang Langjun's morale had been suppressed.

The 50,000 soldiers and horses commanded by Deng Yu were faced with the 100,000 Wang Lang army led by Li Yu, and the 50,000 soldiers and horses led by Wu Han were against the 100,000 Wang Lang army led by Zhang Shen.

Soon, the battle formations of the two sides came into contact. Large-scale legion battles are like a giant meat grinder, shattering everything that can be seen on the battlefield.

The shield men in the front row shrank behind their shields and squeezed forward desperately, while the spearmen and crossbowmen in the back row kept stabbing their spears forward and shooting crossbow arrows.

The soldiers on both sides did not fall one after another, but fell in rows and rows in pools of blood, and then were trampled into pulp by the enemy or their own soldiers.

Wu Han is not a reckless man, and it naturally makes sense for Liu Xiuken to let him command an army of 50,000.

Looking at the fierce battle in front of him, Wu Han quickly adjusted his formation, and the orders he issued were conveyed one by one like a marquee.

As the battle between the two armies continued, the central part of the Wu Han army gradually showed an invincible trend, and the originally square battle formation gradually became concave.

The soldiers of Wang Langjun on the opposite side thought that Wu Hanjun's side had begun to be unable to support it, and their morale suddenly rose, and people pushed forward with all their might.

The situation on the battlefield is changing rapidly. The camp of Wu Hanjun has become a concave shape, while the camp of Zhang Senjun on the opposite side has become a convex shape.

Just as the former soldiers of Zhang's army continued to squeeze forward, none of them noticed that they had stepped into the encirclement of Wu Han's army.

Feeling that the number of enemy troops in his pocket array was enough, and if there were more, it might break his stomach, Wu Han immediately made a decision, and shouted sideways: "Quickly send the flag!" ”

With his order, the soldiers holding the handsome flag next to him began to shake the handsome flag together.

Wu Han's flag was immediately conveyed to the officers and men of the whole army. Seeing the regular swing of their own handsome flags, the generals of each department led their own soldiers one after another to launch a joint counterattack against Wang Lang's army.

Wang Langjun, who got into Wu Hanjun's pocket, had at least 20,000 people, and his advance was originally smooth, but suddenly encountered huge resistance, and at the same time, Wu Hanjun's shouts of killing were all around him.

The former army commander of Zhang's staff department was Sun Li, who was also in the pocket formation of Wu Hanjun, and when he realized that it was not good, he hurriedly shouted to the left and right: "Hurry up and give the order, the whole army retreats!" ”

It's too late! At the same time as he gave the general order, Geng Yi led 4,000 cavalry, suddenly slaughtered from the Wu Han army's main formation, drew an arc on the battlefield, and went straight to the flank of Zhang Shen's army and inserted it.

Zhang was defenseless and was caught off guard by the sudden arrival of the cavalry. Many of the soldiers had not yet seen what was going on, and were either knocked to the ground by the cavalry's iron stabs, or were directly knocked away by the galloping horses.

These 4,000 Youzhou raiders entered Zhang Shenjun's camp like a sharp knife, unstoppable, and cut Zhang's camp into two parts in one fell swoop.

The part that was cut out was the 20,000 former army soldiers who fell into the pocket formation of the Wu Han army.

Sun Li ordered the whole army to retreat, but the retreat cut off by the cavalry made it impossible for the officers and soldiers of the former army to evacuate at all.

The battle situation on the battlefield is really changing rapidly, just now, Zhang Senjun still has a huge advantage, forcing Wu Han's army to retreat and defeat.

But in an instant, Zhang's army was cut into two parts, the front army of 20,000 was surrounded by 50,000 Wu Han legions, and the other 80,000 Zhang Shen's army was attacked by the 4,000 cavalry commanded by Geng Yi and retreated.

Seeing that the front army was cut off from the main formation, and the front army was still surrounded by enemy troops, Zhang Shen was in a hurry and ordered the officers and men of the whole army to rescue the front army no matter what.

Ancient warfare is different from modern warfare, and the most elite and skilled soldiers are usually deployed in the front army.

Although the front army has the highest casualty rate, it is also the key to the victory or defeat of both sides. The former army wins, the whole army wins; The defeat of the former army also basically indicates that the whole army will be defeated. The officers and men in the army are all proud to be arranged into the front army.

It can be said that the two armies are fighting, and the former soldiers of both sides are the sharpest weapons in their hands.

Now the 20,000 former army soldiers led by Sun Li are surrounded by 50,000 enemy legions, for Zhang Shen, this is tantamount to disarming him, how can he not be in a hurry?

Under the constant urging of Zhang Shen, 80,000 Zhang Sen's army regrouped and launched a counterattack against the 4,000 cavalry commanded by Geng Yi.

The cavalry rushed into battle, incomparable, under the cavalry spear, all beings were equal, but the cavalry was not used to fight positional warfare. With the fierce counterattack of the 80,000-strong Zhang Sen army, the 4,000 cavalry also began to show inadequacy.

The 4,000 Youzhou cavalry were forced to retreat again and again by the advance of 80,000 Zhang Senjun's army, and seeing that the main force of Zhang's army was about to contact the encirclement of Wu Han's army, at this time, it was already very critical for Wu Han's army.

If they continue like this, not only will they not be able to encircle and annihilate the enemy's front army, but they will also be attacked by the enemy's internal and external forces, and the whole army will be annihilated.

Now, it shows Liu Xiu's superb ability to arrange the formation and command the battle. He arranged the soldiers of his own side into three squares, which seemed inexplicable, but in fact, the most powerful thing about this array was that it was flexible in two words.

Seeing the intentions of Wu Hanjun, and also seeing the crazy counterattack of Zhang's army, Liu Xiu immediately ordered that the formation move closer to Wu's army, meet the main force of Zhang's army, and help Wu's army annihilate the front army of Zhang's army.

This sudden change of formation once again caught Zhang off guard when he joined the army. The main force of Zhang Shenjun, who was counterattacking forward and constantly approaching Wu Hanjun, was held up to death by Liu Xiujun, who was moving quickly.

Zhang Shen didn't know that the 20,000 enemy troops that were holding up against him were personally commanded by Liu Xiu, at this time his eyes were red, and he roared loudly: "The enemy army is only 20,000 people, give me a quick defeat of the enemy army!" ”

The 80,000 Zhang who lost the elite front army joined the army, and it was not easy to defeat the 20,000 Han army led by Liu Xiu.

The two sides fought together, and in an instant, the sound of the blade piercing the armor and penetrating the body became one, and many of the soldiers on both sides pierced each other's bodies at the same time, and both fell to the ground.

Just when the two sides were evenly matched, the Ben Ming army led by Jia Fu was dispatched again, and people were shirtless and holding long swords, and they directly rushed into the battle formation of Zhang Shen's army from the camp of the Han army.

The embankment of thousands of miles is destroyed in the anthill, the two armies face each other, and the collapse of one place may affect the entire battle situation.

Although there were only about 500 people in the Ben Ming army under the command of Jia Fu, they rushed into the enemy army, but they were unstoppable, and the enemy troops on this side were in chaos. The chaos of the enemy army in this area also quickly spread to other places.

Zhang, who had 80,000 people, joined the army and retreated again. They were repulsed by the cavalry just now, but this time they were repelled by Liu Xiujun.

His side obviously had an army of 80,000, while the enemy only had about 20,000, but his own army of 80,000 was repelled by the enemy's 20,000 people, which made Zhang Shen, who was watching the battle behind, angry.

He gritted his teeth and roared: "Pass the order, the officers and men of our army are only allowed to advance, not retreat, and those who dare to retreat from the battle will be killed!" ”

His orders were passed on, but no one listened to him. Zhang joined the army of 80,000 people, and was forced to retreat again and again by Liu Xiujun.

At the same time, Wu Han had already personally gone into battle and led his soldiers to launch an all-out siege on the trapped Sun Libu.

Sun Li also wanted to lead his troops to break through, and he made several attempts, but they failed to break through, but suffered huge losses.

As the encirclement of Wu Han's army became smaller and smaller, the soldiers around Sun Li became fewer and fewer. Originally, there were 20,000 soldiers, but there were not even 10,000 people who knew how to do it. Sun Li couldn't help but look up to the sky and sigh, at this time, he wanted to cry and laugh. He had an army of 200,000, and Liu Xiujun only had 120,000, and on a battlefield with such a huge difference in strength, he could still be surrounded by enemy legions

, and none of the 180,000 soldiers on our side came to the rescue, isn't this sad and ridiculous?

If he is besieged again, it will be a dead end, Sun Li went out, led his soldiers, and made the last breakthrough.

When Sun Libu broke through outward, the arrows that flew from all directions were like raindrops, and they were knocked down by the arrow array, and the soldiers buried by the arrows were not one after another, but one after another.

In the end, even Sun Li was hit by more than a dozen arrows and died in the chaos. The 20,000 elite front troops of Zhang's staff department were defeated by Wu Han in this way.

With the trapped enemy forces completely annihilated, Wu Han's army redeployed, replaced Liu Xiu's troops, and continued to meet Zhang's army.

The two sides met again, and Zhang's army immediately showed signs of inadequacy, and the soldiers in front could not resist the advance of Wu Han's army at all, and were forced to retreat again and again.

The defeat was like a mountain. The defeat has already been formed, and if you want to turn the tide, it is not easy to talk about, not to mention that the opponent Zhang Shenjun faced was Wu Han and Wu Ziyan.

On the battlefield, Wang Lang's army, which was divided into two, was the first to be unable to support Zhang's staff, and it gradually evolved from a partial defeat to a rout of the whole army.

The defeat of Zhang's staff department on this side also directly affected Li Yujun on the other side.

Li Yujun's soldiers had no intention of fighting, and they also began to retreat. Li Yu realized that his side had no chance of winning today's battle, so he decisively ordered the whole army to retreat and retreat to the camp.

On the battlefield, it is not possible for one party to retreat smoothly if he wants to. In the process of retreating, Wang Langjun was pursued by Liu Xiujun. The soldiers on the back side are running all the way and dying all the way.

When the soldiers under the command led by Li Yu and Zhang Shen retreated to the camp of Wang Lang's army, the number of people was counted, and after a day's fighting, the 200,000 army lost 60,000 people, and only 130,000 people remained.

Liu Xiujun's side naturally also had a lot of casualties, and the 120,000 soldiers were sharply reduced to about 100,000. In this vast open space between the two camps, there was a mess and devastation, corpses strewn all over the field, and crows of crows.

The dried blood of the people stained the ground black and brown.

Next, the two sides sent their respective corpse collection teams to load the corpses of their fallen soldiers into wagons one after another, and pull them away for incineration.

During the day, the soldiers on both sides, even if they met face to face at this time, they were all speechless and busy.

The Han army camp, the Chinese army tent. Liu Xiu sat in the camp tent, not complacent because of the big victory during the day, but frowned.

First of all, although Wang Lang's army was defeated, his side also paid a high price, with 20,000 casualties. Secondly, the Xie Gong army he had been waiting for did not come.

If Xie Gong's army could appear today, Liu Xiu would not even ask them to directly participate in the battle, just by killing the enemy's empty camp, he could double or triple his own results today, and even possibly annihilate the enemy army completely.

However, Xie Gong's army never arrived, and it was only in the evening that a person was sent to convey the news sent by Xie Gong, saying that a new enemy situation had been discovered near Handan, and Xie Gong did not dare to lead the army to leave his own camp. The news sent by Xie Gong made all the generals under Liu Xiu's command indignant. You have obviously promised yourself that you will help in today's decisive battle, but now you are backtracking and bowing to others, which is too shameless.
