Seeing a large group of soldiers coming on the hillside, Wang Shangli took it for granted that they were all his belated subordinates.

At this time, the sound of fighting behind the mountains on both sides did not stop, but the sound was slightly quieter than just now, it was obvious that the four thousand western troops had controlled the situation on the battlefield, but they were not in a hurry to destroy the enemy, but divided their troops to support themselves, so the battle continued.

At this time, a red square battle flag appeared on the top of the mountain, Wang Shangli glanced at it unconsciously, suddenly realized that something was wrong, hurriedly pulled back his gaze, and looked at it again.

That's right, it was a rectangular battle flag of the Chu army, which was completely different from the pennant of the Western army.

"Idiot! actually let the Chu thief over, this battle is getting more and more chaotic! Wang Shangli was so angry that he scolded, the four thousand Western troops were too careless, they rushed to support him, and they didn't completely block the Chu army, and now they were stabbed by the other party from the side and rear, and they must have suffered heavy losses.

No, no! They all seem to be in a group, could it be that the hundreds of soldiers on the slopes on both sides of the mountain are all Chu troops?!

As if answering Wang Shangli, as the first battle flag appeared, several square battle flags appeared on the top of the mountain one after another, and more soldiers followed behind the battle flags, and the fastest ones in front had already rushed to the bottom of the hillside, enough to see the style and color of their armor and uniforms, Wang Shangli finally determined that these soldiers who rushed down were all Chu troops, and they were all enemies!

"Sons, fight with me!"

Wang Shangli was shocked in his heart, and he didn't care about the reasons for it, and commanded the troops to come forward to meet the battle, the current situation is very dangerous, the hunter seems to have become the prey, in order to avoid the rout of the whole army, he must block this wave of enemy attacks at any cost.

Offensive!

On the hillside on the north side, the town soldiers jumped down the hillside like a flock of brisk goats, wielding their swords and guns at will, killing those Western army auxiliaries.

These auxiliaries just wanted to intercept and kill the rout of the Chu army, a group of groups were distributed on the slopes on both sides, just sent to the mouth of the town soldiers, and in the blink of an eye, they were put down a hundred and ten people, and the other auxiliaries threw down their swords and guns, and fled desperately down the mountain, and the town soldiers disdained to pursue and kill these useless auxiliaries, and while rushing down the hillside, they gathered into several groups and launched an attack on Wang Shangli's right flank under the leadership of the officer.

On the mountain beam on the south side, the speed of the Ningzhou soldiers is also not slow, but also while going down the mountain quickly, while completing the assembly of troops, rushing down the hillside immediately launched an attack, and fully impacted Wang Shangli's left flank, Ningzhou soldiers originated from the anti-Qing volunteers in the mountainous area of the shogunate, many of them are born as bandits like Xiong Lichun, and they are as good at mountain warfare as the Zhenxiao soldiers.

The Zhenxiao soldiers and the Ningzhou soldiers are the mountain special forces of this era!

They cooperated with the friendly army just now, easily broke through the interception of the 4,000 Western Army, and rushed to support Tan Xiao, Tan Xiao saw the friendly army arrive, and also launched a counterattack at the same time, and several groups of people and horses surrounded Wang Shangli from three directions and beat him hard.

"How can thieves be so fierce! Oh, Tan Xiao has at least five thousand ...... No, six or seven thousand elite soldiers, where did he transfer so many soldiers and horses, is Guiyang singing about the empty city plan? ”

Wang Shangli, as the general of the Western Army, is very familiar with the intelligence of the Chu army, after seeing the banners of Chen Youlong and Bian Xiang, he knows that they are all elites who are good at mountain warfare, and they are also the absolute main force in the Western Expeditionary Army.

He still has more than 4,000 troops at hand, which is about the same as Tan Xiao, Chen Youlong, and Bian Xiang combined, but after the hunter became the prey, his morale was obviously worse, and he was always pressed and beaten by the Chu army, and he fought and retreated, unable to stabilize his position.

Because this is a narrow mountainous area, some of the tactics commonly used on the plain can not be used, the two armies collide to form a U-shaped front, rushing back and forth with each other, in contrast, Wang Shangli's troops are more concentrated, so the battle line is relatively thicker, the Chu army from the south, north, west three directions around him to fight, although the battle line is thin, but it is a three-sided attack situation, obviously occupy the upper hand, let Wang Shangli call helpless.

It can't go on like this!

Wang Shangli ordered fireworks and rockets to be set off to signal the friendly troops behind the mountains on both sides to let them move closer to the main force, and at the same time ordered the more than 3,000 soldiers on the river beach under the mountain to immediately rush to participate in the battle, he also knew that the Chu army had a boat and could land from the Nanming River at any time, but the current situation was critical, and it was no longer possible to let the more than 3,000 soldiers sit aside as spectators, and in Wang Shangli's mind, since Tan Xiao had brought so many troops, most of them had already poured out, and the Chu army did not have enough troops to land from the Nanming River again.

In addition to mobilizing his own troops, he also signaled to Liu Wenxiu to ask for help from the Chinese army.

Wang Shangli believes that the Chu army obviously regards him as the main target, Zhou Guodong's 5,000 ambush soldiers are just to contain Liu Wenxiu, Tan Xiao's side is the main force of the Chu army, and now in this situation, Wang Shangli feels that he can still support it, but it is difficult to turn defeat into victory, if Liu Wenxiu can send more than 5,000 reinforcements, he can turn defense into offense, eliminate Tan Xiao in one fell swoop, and win this battle.

One after another fireworks burst into the sky, colorful and colorful, each with its own meaning.

More than 3,000 subordinates on the river beach were the first to respond, raising fireworks to tell him that the whole army would immediately return to help, and it didn't take long, and Liu Wenxiu's Chinese army also raised a few fireworks, telling Wang Shangli that 2,000 reinforcements had been sent, and he was also ordered to send people to the Chinese army to report the latest battle situation to Liu Wenxiu.

The information that fireworks can convey is limited, Liu Wenxiu saw that Wang Shangli was asking for help, and he was gathering troops, and he also faintly heard the sound of war drums fighting, knowing that the scale of the battle here was not small, but he didn't know what was going on, Liu Wenxiu was attacking the 75th Division with all his strength at this time, and there were not many mobile troops at hand, so he only sent back the 2,000 reinforcements sent by Wang Shangli.

Two thousand is two thousand, Wang Shangli didn't complain, with these two thousand reinforcements, he is enough to compete with Tan Xiao, even if he can't win, it is not difficult to protect himself, the only thing that makes him feel a little uneasy is that the four thousand western troops behind the mountains on both sides have not responded, and the sound of fighting has become more intense.

"How many soldiers does Tan Xiao have? Could it be that he still has the strength to attack behind the mountain, and Zhang Wu and they have also fallen into a bitter battle? ”

Wang Shangli originally speculated that since Chen Youlong and Bian Xiang rushed to support Tan Xiao, there would definitely not be many troops left behind the mountains on both sides, and even if the four thousand Western Army could not destroy the enemy for a while, it was easy to get out of the battle and get closer to themselves, but after this long time, not only did they not see their shadows, but they didn't even set off a single firework for contact, indicating that the battle there was very fierce, and the generals of the Western Army who led the team may have personally gone into battle and were busy fighting.

"Order, counterattack the Bian thief on the south side, and answer General Zhang Wu behind the mountain." Wang Shangli had 4,000 troops in his hands, which could be supported in a short period of time, and he could even launch a counteroffensive in one direction by concentrating his forces, he thought about it for a moment and decided to put the breakthrough on Bian Xiang on the south side, not to defeat the other party at once, but to repel it in order to meet the friendly forces behind the mountain.

Kill!

Wang Shangli personally led a thousand elites into the battlefield on the south side and fought a fierce battle with Bian Xiang's Ningzhou soldiers.

Tan Xiao, Chen Youlong and Bian Xiang combined, the strength is roughly the same as Wang Shangli, although they obviously have the upper hand, but it is not enough to surround the other party, and Wang Shangli concentrated his forces for a fierce attack, Bian Xiang immediately felt a little difficult, and the battle line was pushed backwards and rotated, twisted, and turned into an irregular L-shape.

Kill!

Bian Xiang and Xiong Lichun resolutely broke up that year, and he was also a stubborn character who would rather bend than bend, at this time he should have retreated slightly, not fighting hard with Wang Shangli, but he refused to admit it, and put the last reserves into battle, which led the army to rush and kill, and after a tenacious fierce battle, he pushed the L-shaped battle line back to the U-shape.

"The thief is really fierce, or at least a team of scouts rushed out."

This back and forth battle did not last long, but the casualties on both sides were not small, Wang Shangli lost more than 200 people, Bian Xiang's side should be similar, although the Western Army is an elite army that has experienced a hundred battles, but if the loss of a battle exceeds two percent, the morale of the troops will seriously decline, and now half of the casualties in a battle, Wang Shangli is in pain, and some dare not fight hard.

Taking advantage of the melee between the two armies, a group of scouts broke through the interception of the Chu army and was about to climb to the top of the mountain, Wang Shangli decided to let the soldiers rest and wait for those scouts to find out the battle situation behind the mountain before making the next decision.

The group of scouts went around in a circle, avoided the Chu army far away, and climbed to the top of the mountain smoothly...... Suddenly, they turned around and rushed down the mountain, running towards Wang Shangli, staggering and panicking, two people also fell, Wang Shangli hurriedly stepped forward to answer, it was still far away, and the scout captain led by him waved his hands and shouted at Wang Shangli.

"Master Hou, it's not a good thing, General Zhang Wu was besieged by thieves, and he can't hold it anymore!"

"Huh? How many soldiers and horses does Chu thief have? Wang Shangli asked in amazement.

"There are about 3,000 elite soldiers in Chu, and there are only more than 1,000 people left in General Zhang Wu, and they have been divided into two places by the thieves, and they are fighting hard, please send troops to rescue Hou Ye as soon as possible." The scout captain was still fine, and in a few simple words, he explained the battle situation clearly.

"How come the Chu thief has 3,000 elite soldiers? Did it fall from the sky? Wang Shangli was surprised, if this was also the case in the north of the mountain, wouldn't Tan Xiao's army be more than 10,000 people? It's a ridiculous joke that isn't funny at all.
