Besides, the Wei general who commanded 10,000 Wei soldiers was full of excitement, although he led his troops to walk in the rain for so long, but he finally caught the Qi army, even if he couldn't defeat it, but as long as he could slow down the pace of the Qi army's siege, it was the first merit of this battle.

Since the reform of the Wei State, the rewards for military merits are still very rich, although they will only be given to generals and nobles, unlike the Qin State that is about to change the law, as long as there is merit, ordinary soldiers are rewarded, but the generals will more or less give their rewards to the soldiers, and like these soldiers led by the Xiang, they are the elite of the Wei army, and the whole army is composed of the famous Wei warriors, who are the cronies of the Marquis of Wei. And this Wei Wushu is tall, good at long-distance running, good at field battles to break the enemy, but not good at attacking cities that are biased towards attrition warfare, so in the attack on Xinzheng some time ago, the army of Xiang Xiang has been holding behind Wei Hou shouting and cheering.

In short, this army of more than 10,000 people, although it marched in the rain for many days, but at this time, in the face of the Qi army several times its own, the Wei army was full of fighting spirit, and with the Wei army's battle flag, it rushed towards the Qi army. So much so that the Puyang Army, which should have been more anxious about the attack on its homeland, was left far behind.

Soon, the strict Qi army camp appeared in front of the Wei army, the flag was flying, the Wei army had been approaching a mile and a half away, before stopping to rest for a while, and then waiting for the late arrival of the guards to finish resting, Wei General Xiang gave an order, and the Wei army roared fiercely, and took the lead in killing.

It startled Qi Hou, the disparity in the number of troops between the two sides is so big, the Wei army actually dares to make the first move? However, Qi Hou was not worried, because the 60,000 army had already set up a formation, and 20,000 of them were elite soldiers in front and 40,000 sick soldiers were cheering behind.

However, Wei Wushu's attack method is known for its strong soldiers, that is, it emphasizes the ability of individual soldiers, so that they will not care about the strategy of attacking the enemy in battle, so the Wei army rushed up without fear.

It was still the bow and arrow to open the way, but because the bowstring was soaked in water, the force was much smaller, so the Wei army killed the Qi army after two arrow rains, of course, the Wei army also shot two arrows, and the two sides suffered losses from each other.

And when it comes to hand-to-hand combat, the gap in combat effectiveness between the two sides suddenly becomes apparent.

The Wei army gathered the main forces together, and adopted the tactics of breaking the surface with points, and the Wei soldiers were much more ferocious than the Qi soldiers, and when the two armies collided together, the Qi army was like a mollusk, and was knocked out of a dent nest.

The Wei army soon fought with the Qi army, and while the killing shook the sky, it was also mixed with some miserable shouts, and the battlefield was very noisy.

"It's not good, the Wei army is deliberately making a gesture to interfere with my siege army!"

Suddenly, Qi Hou didn't know who shouted beside him, and Qi Hou, who was in a panic, looked at the Puyang city wall behind him, and sure enough, he saw many soldiers who couldn't help but look back, and the momentum of the siege was much smaller, on the contrary, the counterattack on Puyang City was much stronger.

Although he had long known that the purpose of the Wei army was to interfere with the siege, but seeing that the Wei army had achieved its goal, Qi Hou was still extremely angry in his heart, and he suddenly realized where he was wrong, he should divide a group of Qi troops to advance a few miles to the southwest, and block the Wei army from the sight of Puyang City, so that it would not interfere with the Qi army's siege, and it would not bring hope to the Puyang people.

However, Qi Hou would never put the responsibility on himself, and only heard his black face roar, "Tian Zhong, send an order to the front army, increase the siege of the city, and if there are those who look back, kill!" ”

"No!" When the old general heard this, he clenched his fists and drove the chariot to the battlefield under Puyang City.

In fact, if there is a fire in the rear, there will be some worries in the front, fear that the back road will be copied, and fear of being attacked in the back.

Seeing that General Tian Zhong's chariot was rushing towards Puyang City under the escort of dozens of personal guards, Qi Hou's heart was also a little relieved, and he set his eyes on the place where the Wei army was attacking.

But at this glance, his eyebrows were furrowed, it turned out that his army was defeated and retreated by the 10,000 Wei soldiers, and even the 40,000 Qi troops who were pressing the formation behind were faintly commotion, and even retreated together.

At this time, the Qi army is facing the direction of the Wei army's attack, so it is naturally Puyang City behind it, if the army retreats one after another, do you have to rely on Puyang City to fight?

This was intolerable to the Marquis of Qi, and the Marquis of Qi absolutely could not let this happen, so the Marquis of Qi immediately ordered the Qi army to desperately resist, and at the same time commanded the two wings of the Qi army to move forward, intending to form an encirclement of the 10,000 Wei troops who were attacking.

Qi Hou wanted to swallow these 10,000 Wei soldiers.

But will Wei Jun let him get his wish? Naturally, it won't, but I saw that the Wei army commander General Xiang issued an order, and the Wei army soon began to move south as a whole.

Originally, the Qi army was west of Puyang, so the formation was naturally north-south, the Wei army came from the southwest, and when it arrived in front of the Qi army, it turned slightly down the angle and became rushing from the west to the east, so now this whole is moving southward, and gradually the Wei army moved to the left flank of the Qi army and killed with the left army of Qi.

And just as the Wei army moved to the left flank of the Qi army, suddenly dust was raised in the southwest direction, and soon thousands of men and horses appeared in the field of vision of the Qi Hou. Could it be that the Wei army still has follow-up troops? The bluffing of Qi Hou was also a little uneasy.

Fortunately, the scouts soon sent the news that this was the five thousand guards who had returned home. Hearing this, the Marquis of Qi put his heart down, and then looked carefully at the place where the two sides of Qi and Wei were fighting, but only to see that the Wei army was originally facing the east and the Qi army was facing the west, but now it has become the Wei army facing the north and the Qi army facing the south.

This was obviously deliberate by the Wei army, because the formation of the Qi army was north-south, so the Wei army could withstand fewer troops, and of course more Qi troops were still on the way from the north to the south.

Maybe you can really eat this group of Wei soldiers, the disparity in strength makes Qi Hou still full of confidence, and seeing that the situation is stabilizing, Qi Hou nodded slightly. As for the five thousand guards, they were directly ignored by Qi Hou.

But he didn't think that after the five thousand guards rushed to the Wei army, they did not go to block the right flank army of the Qi army south for the Wei army as the Marquis of Qi wished, but suddenly accelerated and ran eastward, and looked at the Qi army stunned, what is this guard going to do?

It wasn't until the guards passed behind the Wei army, ran a few hundred steps to the east, and then turned north, that the Qi people reacted.

"Puyang soldiers are going to enter the city!"

I don't know who shouted, and immediately reminded Qi Hou and a bunch of generals, but before he had time to check who found out first, Qi Hou's face changed again, and he immediately ordered the Qi army to send 10,000 people to chase after the Puyang soldiers.

You must know that if it is a field battle, these 5,000 Puyang soldiers Qi Hou will not look at it, but if it is put into the city, it will immediately add a lot of strength to defend the city, and put it on the city wall, these 5,000 people may be able to resist 50,000 Qi soldiers.

Therefore, the Marquis of Qi must not let these 5,000 people enter the city, and there are even Qi generals whose heads turn faster, and they are still wondering if they can follow behind these 5,000 Puyang soldiers and also touch into the city.

However, although Qi Hou's wishes are good, the reality is skinny. Because there are less than 10,000 Wei soldiers left, they are between the Qi army and the guards, blocking the pace of the Qi army chasing the guards, and it will take a lot of distance for the Qi army behind to bypass it.

At this time, the five thousand Puyang soldiers can no longer take care of much, desperately ran to the south gate of Puyang, and it didn't take long to run under the south gate, the familiar general shouted, the south gate of Puyang was immediately opened, five thousand soldiers entered the city, until the last Puyang soldier entered the city, the Qi army had just arrived dozens of steps away, this was a rain of arrows on the south wall of Puyang, forcing these Qi soldiers to slow down their pace, and the two heavy gates of the south gate of Puyang were also slammed shut.

Seeing all this happening in front of him, Qi Hou almost exploded his lungs, and immediately sent all his anger to the nearly 10,000 Wei troops who were still present, and several orders were issued, and tens of thousands of troops accelerated towards the Wei army.

But will Wei Jun let Qi Jun make dumplings? Of course not, and in fact, the main task of the Wei army today is to escort the five thousand Puyang soldiers into the city, in addition to interfering with the Qi army's siege, which is also the agreement reached by the Wei generals with the Wei Hou before returning to Puyang.

Therefore, now seeing that this important task has been completed, and interfering with the siege of the Qi army has also achieved certain results, so General Wei ordered that after the rear army was broken, the front army retreated, and the army withdrew to the southwest alternately.

The angry Qi army followed for several miles until they could not catch up, because the speed of the Wei army was too fast, and you must know that a qualified Wei soldier could carry armor, weapons, and rations equivalent to half a person's weight, and march for a hundred miles in half a day, and then he could fight a battle in the afternoon.

Wei Wushu's physical strength is strong, needless to say, so in the era when there was no cavalry, Wei Wushu wanted to get rid of the Qi army, which was extremely simple. However, even if he was wearing heavy armor, after the Qi army retreated, he still left the corpses all the way, as for the wounded soldiers, in this case, they would only be killed by the pursuing Qi army, so in the end, under the plan, there were only more than 7,000 Wei soldiers left, you must know that it was thousands of Qi troops, of course, the losses of the Qi army were not small.

And the most important thing is that Puyang City can't be taken today, it was interfered with by the Wei army, coupled with this pursuit, the Qi army spent almost a whole day, and in desperation, Qi Hou had to withdraw the siege force and finish the work early.

The soldiers were naturally happy, because they could rest early, but Qi Hou was worried again, and it was a dilemma, which was placed in front of Qi Hou, because Qi Hou sadly found that if he insisted on attacking the city, then he would not be able to eliminate this group of hateful fears, and if he wanted to encircle and annihilate this group of Wei troops, he had to mobilize all his forces and give up the siege.

Whether it is the Wei army or Puyang City, whether it is fame or fortune, the Marquis of Qi is in trouble.

However, under the argument of the generals of the Qi army, who were divided into two factions as usual, and after tossing and turning in the middle of the night, Qi Hou finally made up his mind, that is, to continue to attack Puyang City, because Qi Hou finally decided that he could not give up halfway.

As for the thousands of Wei troops, the Marquis of Qi also decided, in order to avoid their influence on the siege troops, he placed 10,000 elite soldiers and 10,000 sick soldiers five miles southwest of Puyang City, so that the attacking Wei army could be blocked from the sight of the siege troops.

So the Marquis of Qi had a good sleep in the second half of the night, and the next morning just after dawn, the army of Qi appeared outside the west gate of Puyang City again.

However, the reality is cruel, not to mention that Puyang City, which has increased its troops, is even more difficult to capture, and today's troop deployment alone has made a big mistake.

The Marquis of Qi put 20,000 troops in the direction where the Wei army came, but the people are alive, won't the 7,000 Wei soldiers bypass the 20,000 Qi army? You must know that five miles away, if you take five miles as the radius, then the 20,000 Qi army can only occupy one-twentieth of the arc, and then you can control one-tenth of it, and the Wei army can completely bypass it from the side without alarming these Qi troops.

And in fact, that's what the Wei army did, of course, they first killed the scouts of the Qi army, in other words, whether it was the scouts of ancient times or the detectives of later generations, they were all high-risk troops, especially scouts, who would not only be killed by their own monarch, but also by the enemy.

Therefore, when the 7,000 Wei troops suddenly came out from the south direction, the 30,000 rear troops of Qilu, plus the 20,000 Qi troops who attacked the city, were all in disarray.

As the so-called surprise attack was unprepared, the Qi army was completely chaotic, the soldiers ran everywhere, the rear army retreated to Puyang City, and the soldiers who attacked the city rushed to run back, and their own people collided with their own people, and the loss was even greater than that directly caused by the Wei army.

And when the Qi army finally collected a part of the army and formed an effective counterattack, the cunning Wei army actually retreated.

Yes, the order he received was to interfere with the Qi army's siege, not to fight with the Qi army, after all, there is a gap in strength, and it is okay to be caught off guard, if you really want to do it, these 7,000 Wei troops may not be able to escape any of them.

Therefore, he accepted it when he saw that it was good, and before the 20,000 Qi troops who returned to the reinforcements formed an encirclement, he safely withdrew and retreated to the southwest.

This will Qi Hou is really angry, regardless of the mess under the city, he took 10,000 Chinese troops and 20,000 troops to help, and chased after the tail of the Wei army.

This time, the angry Qi army chased out for dozens of miles, until it was dark, until the road was out of sight, until the general persuaded the Marquis of Qi to order to set up camp, and at this time, it was more than thirty miles away from Puyang City, and the heavily armored Wei soldiers were still only two miles away.

And that night, the herald of the Qi army brought the latest order of the Marquis of Qi to the rear army, that is, to abandon Puyang City and concentrate all his forces to destroy this group of Wei troops who were as nasty as flies.

Before dawn the next day, a large number of scouts were released among the Qi army, and then when the sky was dark, the army of 20,000 drove to the southwest, and today, the Marquis of Qi vowed to catch up with the Wei army.

However, today Qi Hou was angry again, and the scouts kept reporting two miles ahead, but they just couldn't catch up. Unconsciously, he chased out nearly a hundred miles in one day, and Qi Hou still didn't know what he would encounter if he chased it out like this again.

However, at this time, Wei Jiang Xiang was full of excitement, because the task assigned by Wei Hou couldn't help but be completed, and he had done it so well, that Wei Xiang could already see the shining reward and future, right in front of his eyes。。。。。。。。。。。。。。 I'm sorry to find out today that on November 8th, I received a reward of 10,000 starting coins from Kyan-lian, which is really enough to make me feel excited, motivated, and even moved, I have been fishing for three days, and I have been drying the net for n days, and the readers are so generous, so supportive, let me be grateful, how to express it!
