When the day dawned, Le's army, which had been vigilant all night, finally saw the light of day. Yueqing could finally send scouts to investigate the situation of Taoqiu's army, and when he finally understood the situation of Taoqiu's army, and knew that Taoqiu's army had suppressed his own tens of thousands of troops with an army of more than 2,000 people, and gave up the plan of night attack, he couldn't help but be furious!

It's daytime, so the Taoqiu army on the periphery can't attack anymore, and this is their chance! He thought to himself. So, he assigned two commanders and selected an army of nearly 10,000 people to engage the first division of the Crane Army, which attacked Le's army last night. And the rest of the soldiers, after breakfast, began to continue to besiege the camp of the Crane Army!

This time, Le's army did not just attack towards the camp gate, but surrounded the entire camp and besieged it from all directions!

The camp is not a city, it does not have such a solid city wall, and the camp gates on all sides can be smashed with a relatively rudimentary trebuchet! The soldiers of the Le clan even used a special chariot to rush to the vicinity of the camp gate, then tied the camp wall tightly with a rope, and then dragged down the camp wall with a chariot!

Under such means, the camp wall of the Crane Control Army camp was soon called an ornament, and the soldiers of the Le clan who were located outside the camp also began to invest heavy troops to attack from various torn rifts, and the entire camp began to become precarious!

At such a critical moment, there were suddenly all kinds of piercing sounds in the air! Subsequently, those soldiers of the Le clan who were attacking at the camp gates on all sides and the gaps in various places soon found that their companions around them were much less. And most of those dead soldiers have a long crossbow arrow stuck in their bodies!

When they wanted to continue the attack, they suddenly found themselves surrounded by all kinds of wails! From a distance, several long crossbow arrows flew in, and the people who were hit by these crossbow arrows, even if they were wearing leather armor, could not stop the damage of this arrow!

This made the attacking Le clan soldiers extremely frightened, and even their pace of attack began to stop a little. Yueqing, who was commanding on the periphery, knew what this thing was as soon as he saw this scene: Taoqiu's bed crossbow!

Since Taoqiu's bed crossbow appeared in Xiangyi, it has been highly valued by the people of Chu. The people of Chu have suffered a lot in the face of this weapon, and Le's relying on his relationship with Hua Rong, has long known the power of the Taoqiu bed crossbow!

Yueqing saw that the Taoqiu army on the opposite side had moved out this kind of weapon, as long as he ordered the soldiers to retreat first and stop the attack. Subsequently, he referred to the experience given by the Chu people and asked various soldiers to hold wooden shields in front of him. With such a layer of protection, the bed crossbow cannot attack itself! After blocking the attack of the bed crossbow, the soldiers of the Le clan began to continue to attack again!

With the protection of the wooden shield, the soldiers of the Le clan were naturally not afraid of the bed crossbow, but this also greatly affected the speed of their advancement. Under the obstruction of the Crane Control Army, the soldiers of the Le clan, who originally had an absolute advantage and formed an overwhelming advantage over the camp, formed a stalemate with the Crane Control Army at the gates of each battalion. For such a battle situation, although Yueqing was still not very satisfied, but under the premise that there was no better way, he had to attack slowly through this method and slowly eat the opponent!

The 1st Division of the Crane Control Army, which was outside the camp, although its own combat effectiveness was strong, could only stalemate with the opponent in the face of an opponent four times its size, and gradually fell into a disadvantage.

However, neither the Crane Control Army located in the camp nor outside the camp had any intention of escaping. Such a scene also made Deyueqing excited! What he is most afraid of is that the opponent will slip away, in that case, he will not be able to achieve the record of completely annihilating the opponent's army!

Outside the battlefield, not far from here, Dai Yan led five armies, frantically rushing towards the location of the battlefield! The territory of the Song State itself is not wide, and now the war between Taoqiu and Le's is still limited to the north of the Song Kingdom, this time the Taoqiu army is only dozens of miles away, and it is almost a march on the land of Pingchuan, Dai Yan can even order the soldiers to march with a small amount of rations on their backs, and there is no need to worry about logistical pressure!

From the beginning of the night march, only by the morning of the next day, the army led by Dai Yan was already less than five miles away from the battlefield where the battle was in full swing!

The army led by him rushed from Taoqiu, and in order to catch the Le army by surprise along the way, he sent the most elite Xuanniao Army scouts to harvest the Le scouts, and Dai Yan did not let go of any of the scouts sent by the Le clan! Without a scout report to warn, Yueqing didn't know that the main force of Taoqiu's army had come to his side!

When Dai Yan came to the vicinity of the battlefield, he did not rashly launch a general attack. He spent so much effort to let more than 60,000 troops run for dozens of miles, just hoping to fight a perfect war of annihilation!

In his setting, it is most convenient to coordinate with a preparation time as the general attack! So he took out the clock and checked the watches with the generals of each army, and then sent two corps to outflank the Le army from both wings, and when it was time (nine o'clock in the morning), five armies launched a general attack on the Le clan soldiers at the same time!

The generals naturally had no opinion on Dai Yan's battle plan. Under his orders, the Long Wei Army and the Tiger Ben Army were sent out, while the remaining soldiers, staying in place, began to recuperate. When Dai Yan predicted that these two armies would be discovered by the soldiers of the Le clan, he immediately took the remaining three armies and marched towards the battlefield without sparing!

When they arrived, the five armies of Taoqiu arrived near the battlefield like divine soldiers descending from the sky, surrounding the entire battlefield!

Today's scene is like a nesting doll, and in the innermost part is the Crane Control Army; In addition to the Crane Control Army, there are eight armies of Le's with a total of 40,000 people to surround it; Outside the encirclement of the Le clan, there were five armies of Taoqiu with a total of more than 60,000 people, forming a counter-encirclement of the Le clan soldiers!

The generals of Taoqiu took out their rudimentary pocket watches, and when the pointer went to the position of punctuality, under the orders of the generals, the Taoqiu troops instantly launched a crazy attack!

In the frontal assault is the most elite Xuanniao Army in the Taoqiu Army! The general of the Xuanniao Army is Tang Ying, the most courageous general under Dai Yan, and the entire army under his leadership is like a completely unsheathed sword, with an indomitable momentum to carry out an assault!

"Destiny Xuanniao, descend to give birth to business!" The soldiers shouted slogans, followed Tang Ying, and began to attack the Le's army on the basis of the division!

The first thing they faced was the Le clan soldiers who were in a stalemate with the first division of the Crane Control Army. In order to deal with the first division, Yueqing specially sent two commanders and an army of more than 10,000 people. However, this army of 10,000 people, when facing an army of the same number of Xuanyao Army, is completely insufficient!

Although the soldiers on both sides did not sleep all night, the soldiers of the Le clan were first frightened by the first division of the Crane Army for a night, and then launched an attack in the morning, fighting for two hours, they themselves were a little tired, and their morale was naturally not as high as that of the Xuanyao Army!

And the Xuanniao Army, as the most elite unit in the Taoqiu army, its own equipment is almost the best in the entire Taoqiu army! In this army, almost everyone wears armor, even the archers, can be equipped with whaleskin armor that can protect against bows and arrows from afar!

And the weapons in their hands are even sharper than the soldiers of the Le clan can imagine! A brigade of the Xuanniao Army carried out an assault, everyone had a steel big knife in their hands, and as soon as Fang rushed in front of Le's army, he picked up the steel knife and slashed and killed! Most of the weapons of the Le's army, which were mainly bronze, were cut off in the face of steel weapons! After they had no weapons, they were like lambs without protection in front of the Xuanniao Army!

And once the Xuanniao Army opened such a gap, the follow-up soldiers immediately followed. Even if the soldiers of the Le clan knew that something was wrong and wanted to escape, the First Division of the Crane Control Army would drag them back, making it impossible for them to escape from the battlefield easily!

The Long Wei Army and the Tiger Ben Army, which attacked the Le clan soldiers from the flank, faced a scene that was a little different from the Xuanniao Army. The Le's army on the flank is in an attack posture against the Crane Control Army, and the Crane Control Army is outside the camp gate, and no army can drag the Le Army on the flank!

Even though the attack speed of the Long Wei Army and the Tiger Ben Army was extremely fast, the Le Army fled faster in order to survive! When the commanders saw the Taoqiu army attacking from outside, they immediately ran towards the south with their teams and where Yueqing was!

Even though the Long Wei Army and the Tiger Ben Army were tightly behind, leaving a part of the army, more than half of the soldiers of the Le Army still escaped from the entire encirclement quickly!

And the Le's army, which stayed in the south, fought with the 1st Division of the Crane Army, and even besieged the camp wall in the south, did not have such good luck. In addition to the Xuanniao Army's direct attack and the direct defeat of the army led by the two commanders, the Thousand Niu Army and the Wolf Tooth Army surrounded them and did not give them a chance to escape!

The army left here totaled more than 17,000 people, and under the siege of the three armies of Taoqiu, there was almost no room for escape. These completely surrounded armies, relying on their strong will, initially carried out a life-for-life attack against the Taoqiu army. When Dai Yan saw the other party's crazy performance, he immediately changed his way of playing, just surrounded them, gradually advanced, and if anyone resisted, he immediately shot them through the standard crossbow!

In this way, the encircled army completely collapsed, and with more than 5,000 people killed, the remaining more than 10,000 soldiers quickly surrendered! fought such a small annihilation battle, destroying nearly half of the opponent's army, which also made Dai Yan a little excited!

At this time, there were only more than 20,000 soldiers left in Yueqing's hands. He knew very well that he would not be able to save the rest of the army. Therefore, he gave up these friendly forces very decisively, and frantically headed south with the remaining soldiers!

For the main force led by Yueqing, Dai Yan did not mean to let go at all! When he learned that the main force of the Le army on the opposite side had fled, he immediately ordered the Long Wei Army, the Tiger Ben Army, and the Crane Army to pursue them. The three armies pursued all the way, and bit a lot of meat from them along the way, and chased them until they were under Chuqiu City before they stopped!

And Yueqing, who fled into Chuqiu City, immediately ordered the whole city to be under martial law, and hurried to defend itself in order to deal with the next attack of the Taoqiu army!

And when Dai Yan learned that Yueqing had escaped, he couldn't help but feel a little pity! The entire Taoqiu army invested 80,000 troops on this battlefield at one time, and against the opponent's army of more than 40,000 people, it only fought a small annihilation battle, destroying half of the local army. Let the other half of the other party's army escape, he can't help but feel a little pity!

In his plan, he set out from Taoqiu with a rapid march to attack Yueqing's army of more than 40,000 people, hoping to fight a perfect battle of annihilation and destroy all of Le's power at once! In this way, one of the two powerful ministers in Suiyang is afraid that one of them will directly withdraw from the civil war stage!

But it's just too difficult! It seems that not everyone can become a master of annihilation like Bai Qi! Dai Yan thought silently in his heart.
