At two o'clock in the morning on November 27 (six o'clock in the morning), in the sound of military trumpets, the new capital, which had just been quiet for two hours, came to life collectively.

The cooks had been busy for most of the hour in advance, and the rich pork bone broth was mixed with a large amount of ginger, exuding bursts of heat and spicy flavors on this humid and cold winter day.

At three o'clock, the 20,000 main forces of the revival army had all finished eating, and then began to march out of the city.

"Report ~~~ General Zuo, the Yulin Army in front of you will report. The pseudo-Wei scout team has been discovered. It is fifteen miles away from the north gate of the new capital. ”

"Got it, and ordered the Yulin Army to slowly retreat five miles. Order the Revival Army to speed out of the city. Well, Bo Yao, isn't your crossbowman detachment finished eating yet? ”

Hearing Guan Yi's questioning, Mi Zhao was also speechless for a while. But what can be done? Who made him the commander of these ten counties now?

Mi Zhao didn't find a reason, and bowed down and said, "The last general will go to the whole team in person." ”

"Hey~~~" Looking at Mi Zhao's figure hurriedly walking down the city tower, Guan Yi didn't say anything. It's just that the fingers gripping the hilt of the sword have turned blue—a complete betrayal of his nervousness.

A large, powerful hand pressed against his shoulder.

"Third Uncle ......"

"Nervous?"

"Hehe, how can you not be nervous. It's just that I can't show it. ”

"Well, it's fine. The third uncle's first battle was also like this. Although at that time, he was standing in the rebels of Meng Huo's army to face the prime minister's army, and even if he was captured, he was not afraid of his life, but he was afraid of death before going into battle. ”

"Hehehe, my nephew knows about this. Hey, my nephew wasn't afraid of death. It's just that...... There's so much to worry about. ”

"Well, you have to think so. If we were to fight Deng Ai in the Longxi Wasteland now, it would be a lifetime. But now, forced by the environment, Deng Ai must have a hard-to-go battle with us. The usefulness of his strategy has been reduced to a minimum......"

"Hehehe, third uncle, you really won't comfort people. That's it......" Guan Yi waved his hand when he said this, turned his head and shouted: "Guard! The horse that leads the general! ”

Walking under the city wall, riding on a high-headed horse with a red body specially given to him by Ma Cheng, Guan Yi turned his head to Liu Chen and said: "Please also ask Your Highness to go to the city, and I will ask Your Highness to watch the sons and daughters kill the enemy later!" ”

At the same time, not far to the north was Deng Ai's army.

"General Zhengxi, our army's scout team has discovered the Shu army. The Shu army seems to be divided into two parts, the first part has been lined up, looking at its outfit and banner, it should be the Yulin army of the Shu thief, but for some reason, the department is slowly retreating. And the latter part of the Shu army seems to be in array! ”

"Like? Seem? ”

Hearing Deng Ai's dissatisfied tone, the scout shivered all over his body: "The general forgives the sin, the fog is thick, and the enemy army is covering the battlefield, and the scouts of our army are really difficult to observe clearly." ”

"So it's not clear how many enemy troops there are?"

"The general forgives the sin!"

"Let's go again."

After letting the scouts retreat, Deng Ai glanced at the generals around him: "According to the CD news, this Guan Zifeng brought 20,000 people to King Qin. The main composition is the farmer who farms the fields and the miners of the salt wells? ”

"General Zhengxi, indeed." Ma Miao, who was already dissatisfied with Deng Ai, although he was reluctant, he still had to answer in a low voice when he was under the eaves.

"Humph! The rabble. What's the use of a large number of people? Well, my military meal is over, right? ”

"The whole army has finished eating."

"Good, give the order, the whole army will advance slowly for five miles, and then start to line up!"

With the orders of the commanders of both sides, the main forces of the Han and Wei armies launched formations one after another.

As soon as the hour arrived (seven o'clock in the morning), the Baath Army was in formation.

"Herald! Before receiving a new order, the whole army can sit on the ground and rest in their respective battle positions. But don't sit for too long. Avoid freezing your body! ”

At the moment, Deng Aijun completed the formation. At the same time, the 10,000-feather forest army of the Shu Han side, which had set out earlier, began to divide into two parts and retreated towards the left and right sides of the Fuxing Army formation.

Although both armies were now in formation, the two sides could not start a battle. There is no way, this is the middle of winter, not to mention that the sun comes out late, the winter fog on the CD plain is very large, before the sun climbs to a certain height and the fog dissipates. Visibility on the battlefield is actually very low.

However, the so-called low visibility is only for the human eye. Some creatures are apparently not subject to the weather.

"Amu, how many troops does the other party have?"

"General Hui, Brother Xing has circled the sky for more than twenty circles, and the enemy's main army should be between fifteen thousand and twenty thousand."

"The main army?"

"Yes, General, Brother Xing just now circled three times about fifteen miles west of our army. As you know, Brother Xing's estimation below five laps is very accurate. So there should be about 3,000 enemy troops on the west side of our army. ”

"Hehehe, Deng Ai old thief, you are really not simple. There are so many fewer soldiers than me, and I dare to divide my troops. Paul! ”

"The last general!"

"All the 1,200 stirrups I brought for my brother have been distributed, right?"

"It's all been distributed, and every horse is equipped with stirrups."

"Very good, did you hear what Amu said just now? For my brother, it is estimated that there is the cavalry hidden by Deng Lao. Swing your cavalry ten miles to the west. If the enemy's ambush comes out from the west side, stop them for your brother! ”

"Whoa!"

Time flies, the sun rises faster, and when the hour comes to an end, the less dazzling winter sun begins to exert its power. The fog that had covered the entire battlefield just now quickly dissipated. The armies of both sides clearly saw their opponents.

Guan Yi didn't feel very special when he saw Deng Ai's army, but when Deng Ai and the others saw Guan Yi's army, the senior officers of the Wei army all squirted a mouthful of old blood!

"This ...... How is this possible? How come the Shu thief has so many of my Great Wei's standard armor? ”

"This ...... Which bastard is this stealing and selling the country's heavy weapon?! ”

The senior officers of the Wei army could not be blamed for being so surprised, because this kind of scene was so exciting.

When the Eastern Han Dynasty still existed, the standard armor of the Han army was the side placket, that is, the entire armor was flat when opened, and when people wore it, they began to wrap it around their body from the side of their body. Such armor is only protected by the chest, back and shoulders, and everything else is empty.

Cao Wei's armor has evolved compared with the armor of the Eastern Han Dynasty, and the side placket style has been changed to a sleeve style, that is, when wearing it, it is put on from the beginning to the bottom. In addition to the protection of the chest, back and shoulders, the waist and thighs are protected.

For many years, on the one hand, Shu Han claimed to be the successor of the Han Dynasty, and on the other hand, Shu Han was indeed weak in national strength. So the armor of the Shu Han army has always been of the side placket type - the cost is much lower. At this point, the senior officers of the Wei army and even the veterans who have been fighting with Shu Han for many years are all clear. But what they saw today was all the Shu Han army dressed in uniform clothes - except for the Wei army's armor was black, and the Han army's armor was red. The armor of both sides is exactly the same, and even the style of the living tongue strap is the same!

There is no doubt that this could not have been produced by Shu Han himself. It can only be from one of the large military regions of the country.

"When Deng finishes this battle, he must bring the lawsuit to the Duke of Jin! No matter who it is, the general will slash him with a knife! After gritting his teeth and saying this, Deng Ai ordered: "The archers come forward and shoot the foot!" ”

"Humph! Summoned Mi Boyao, the crossbowmen team stepped forward and shot at each other! ”

Once again, the sun in the sky adjusted its position. At this time, the time has come, and the war between the two sides has finally begun!

Cao Wei's archers were very powerful, and in the first two rounds of shooting, the Shu Han crossbow team composed of county soldiers suffered a lot of losses. The crossbowmen, who had never had experience in battle formations, looked at their comrades who were screaming with arrows around them, and they also panicked. But fortunately, in this team of 5,000 people, Guan Yi not only sent Mi Zhao as a commander, but also forced into the ten county guards! In other words, this army has an extremely high proportion of high-ranking cadres!

Finally, under the reprimand and encouragement of the county guards, Shu Han's crossbow team stabilized its position.

Drawing a bow and releasing arrows is a very physically demanding job. The archer pulls the bow with all his might, and after four or five consecutive times the arm begins to go numb, and the frequency will be reduced unconsciously. Crossbowmen apparently do not have this problem. Moreover, the output of Zhuge Repeater is very large. Therefore, as time passed, Cao Wei's archers were gradually suppressed.

Seeing more and more of their archers fall to the ground, many of the enemy's crossbow arrows have been shot in front of the infantry phalanx in the rear. Deng Ai sighed helplessly: "With the spear and shield soldiers as the front, the sword and shield soldiers as the two wings, and the short axe soldiers as the backbone." The whole army is in front of the arrows, forward! ”

Watching Deng Aijun start to slowly change formations, Guan Yi breathed a sigh of relief: Fortunately, in the face of such a peerless general, he barely took the lead.

According to Jiang Wei's point, in the field, if the enemy is forced to charge from a distance for various reasons, it means that this side has the upper hand: you can set up the corresponding formation according to the opponent's formation.

"The order was given, and the left and right armies moved closer to the central front in an arc. Our army, respond to the enemy with a crane wing formation! ”
