In the afternoon, the pace of the battle was quickened, and after a morning of various exploratory attacks, the eastern and western armies, which had completed the warm-up, adjusted their respective positions, and then threw in the new forces to carry out key attacks.

The right army of the Eastern Army, that is, the right flank, was facing the left army (left flank) of the Yuwen Wen side (Western Army).

A large number of armored cavalry leaned on the left flank of the Western Army from the outside in a goose marching formation, and there were light cavalry on the periphery to intercept the cavalry on the left flank of the Western Army, and the Eastern Army tried to flank the left flank of the Eastern Army with the superior cavalry in numbers.

The light cavalry of the two sides was attacking each other, and the armored cavalry put on a charging position, and the left flank of the Western army began to adapt, the flanks were thickened, and the spearmen rushed forward, ready to meet the onslaught of the opposing side.

Armored cavalry is armored, whether it is a man or a horse, the protection is very high, and it is a dream to block the opponent's charge with arrows, so you can only use a spear to fight hard.

In the face of the spearmen of the Western Army, the armored cavalry suddenly changed its tactics, approaching the left and right directions of the Western Army's infantry formation, and began to shoot on horseback.

This is a heavy cavalry tactic of pincer shooting, moving armored cavalry, not only a tactic of charging and ramming the formation, with a cavalry bow to shoot the spearmen who are waiting in battle, the unexpected effect is very good.

And once the opponent's archers come forward to shoot, the armored cavalry is not afraid, and the pinch shot can be changed to charge at any time, the switching speed is enough to make the infantry formation at a loss, the only problem is the consumption of horsepower, after all, the war horse is equipped with cavalry, and he is wearing armor, and he can't stand it for a long time.

The Eastern Army's armored cavalry had a good flanking effect, while its right flank infantry frontally pressed the left flank of the Western Army, trying to collapse the left flank of the Western Army with a flanking situation.

Yang Su, the commander of the left flank of the Western Army and the head of the march, quickly made a decision and ordered the spearmen to carry out a short assault and charge directly at the enemy's armored cavalry on foot.

Since the time of the Western Wei Dynasty, one of the usual tactics of the Western Wei army (Zhou army) was to coordinate infantry and cavalry to deal with the enemy with superior cavalry, using spearmen to make a short assault on the enemy's cavalry, and their own cavalry to protect the flanks.

Once the infantry successfully forced the enemy cavalry to retreat on foot, their own cavalry would take advantage of the situation to chase and kill, if the cavalry lost in the battle, they could retreat to the rear of the infantry, and then the infantry continued to raise their spears and make a short assault, such an echelon attack had a good effect on the Eastern Wei army/Qi army.

The spearmen who suddenly attacked forced the armored cavalry to disperse, and Xue Shixiong, a general who had already been ready to attack, led three hundred cavalry to attack, and rushed straight towards the enemy's armored cavalry, taking advantage of the opponent's retreat to 'get a handful'.

The spearmen slowed down, adjusted their formation, rested slightly, and after a moment continued to advance and press the opposing armored cavalry.

As a result, the front of the left army had no backup, because the team, as a reserve, had already charged on foot towards the flank enemy cavalry, and the frontal strength was instantly reduced, which was exactly the effect that the eastern army wanted.

The ready throwers struggled to throw the ignited thunderbolts at the western army, while the spearmen of the eastern army in the front row also performed a short assault, using the cavalry to attract the enemy troops on the flank, regardless of casualties and the western spearmen, the second row fell and rushed up.

The weak defense line of the left flank of the Western Army soon collapsed, and the soldiers of the Eastern Army shouted "Break the formation" with all their might, and rushed forward with their spears in the midst of the shouts of the tide, and the formation of their right flank soon loosened, and everyone fought bravely to break through the enemy formation first, only to collide head-on with the oncoming light cavalry of the Western Army.

Yang Su, the commander of the left wing of the Western Army and the head of the march, personally led 500 cavalry to charge, and the forward threw a thunderbolt, which directly crashed into the enemy army with a spear at the moment of flickering firelight.

The soldiers of the Eastern Army, who were about to rush up, were stunned by this stick, and before they could react, the forward was routed, and the spearmen who were scattered in formation were unable to effectively resist in the face of the light cavalry that had already risen in speed.

For Yang Su, there are many changes in tactics, but the truth is the same truth, that is, to cause the enemy to show flaws, and his own side will give a hard blow.

When the enemy used his armoured cavalry to mobilize his formation, he did what he wanted, and his spearmen flanked him, weakening the frontal line and making way for his cavalry to charge.

Therefore, when the enemy infantry thought that the assault was successful, it was when Yang Su chopped melons and vegetables, so he used all the cavalry he could mobilize, and personally led the army to charge.

The galloping cavalry routed the infantry of the Eastern Army like a knife cutting tofu, and the generals of the rear army hurriedly gathered their soldiers to form a formation, but Yang Su led the cavalry to turn, cut through the outer edge of the enemy's formation, and turned to the left.

The enemy's right flank was still thick, and he knew that he could not rush yet, but there was a better target, and that was the enemy's armored and light cavalry.

The spearmen who made a short assault on the flanks were anvils, and Xue Shixiong's cavalry was the left hammer, and the cavalry led by Yang Suqin was the right hammer, and the armored cavalry that could not be raised quickly was "knocked to pieces".

The cavalry led by Yang Su directly copied the rear road of the enemy's cavalry, and under the front and rear attacks, the enemy's light and heavy cavalry suffered heavy casualties, and the remnants of the army then dispersed.

The left flank formation, which had just been torn apart by the Western Army, was quickly restored, and the enemy right army that took the initiative to attack suffered many casualties.

The Chinese army was in the main formation, and Yu Wenwen, who learned that the left army was unharmed, wiped the cold sweat on his forehead, and just now he saw that the left army (left wing) was shaking, and he almost had to lead the troops to gag it himself, Yang Su was obviously playing with his heartbeat, and almost made his heart jump out.

According to the news brought by the herald, the left army successfully defused a heavy blow from the other party, so now Yu Wenwen feels that it is time for his Chinese army to play a heartbeat.

The former colonel of the Chinese army, the soldiers who are fighting with the enemy soldiers are gradually unable to withstand it, most of them are barbarians, although they have received "intensive training", but the mud has never been able to support the wall, and the first battle that was supposed to be good only needs to last for half a day, but now they have no retreat.

If it weren't for the fact that there was a team of warlords waiting in the back row with bright knives, many people really wanted to turn around and run, but now, their physical strength is gradually overdrawn, and everyone is about to be unable to withstand it.

At this moment, the trumpet sounded, and the leaders, who had a bitter face, almost cried with joy when they heard it: "Retreat, retreat!" It's up to someone else! ”

The barbarians almost cheered when they heard this, and they didn't care that the lieutenant colonel's front team had not yet arrived, so they retreated one after another, and this withdrawal directly led to the loosening of the battle line.

The soldiers of the Eastern Army, who were holding back their strength to play for their lives, almost couldn't believe their eyes when they saw this: You will withdraw before the rotation team is in place, is it really fake?

Sure enough, it's a rabble!

The generals of the Eastern Army who supervised the battle on the front line quickly reacted and shouted loudly for the soldiers to assault, and the enemy's formation was loosened, which was an excellent opportunity to break the formation.

In the face of the enemy soldiers who were howling and raising their spears, the retreating barbarians were terrified, just like they had done outside Ruyin City, and began to 'perform in their true colors' again: a rout.

The battle line of the Chinese army collapsed in an instant, and the barbarians who were holding their heads and running away desperately fled at all costs, and even the team of lieutenant colonels was unstable, and they wanted to form a formation but were attacked by the rout, and they began to retreat not long after.

This scene was seen by Wei Chi Youqi, who was located in the main formation of the Eastern Army, and the generals on the left and right were very excited to ask for battle, they thought that the enemy's Chinese army was unstable, and it was time for their own side to send the Chinese cavalry to attack and break the enemy in a battle.

Wei Chi Youqi put down the clairvoyant mirror, looked left and right, and then looked ahead, and shook his head after a while: "They are deceitful, and they use the army to lure our army to attack!" ”

"Think about it, the left and right armies of the other side are still stable, why did the Chinese army suddenly collapse? If our army attacks with all its strength and breaks through the main position of the opponent's central army, then the flanks will inevitably be flanked by its left and right armies. ”

"It's a pocket, just waiting for our army to drill into it!"

Wei Chi Youqi was reasonable, but the generals had different views, because since ancient times, retreating in front of the enemy was a very risky thing, and the slightest carelessness would turn from an "orderly retreat" to a major rout.

They think that the enemy may be setting up a pocket formation to lure their own side into attack with a fake defeat, but as long as they dare to gamble, there is no chance that the fake defeat will become a real defeat.

Several men in armor asked for battle in front of Wei Chi Youqi, they were strong in Huaixi Wubao, and they had a common enmity with the Yuwen clan, so they knew that the risk was very high, but they also wanted to drive forward for the king:

"Shang Shuling, a certain class is willing to charge for the official army, even if it is a trap, a certain class has no regrets!"

"As long as the official army can defeat the traitor, they will not hesitate to break their bones!"
