Yuan Shu shouted angrily: "I want to fight you to the death, annihilate you, capture and kill you, so as to eliminate the hatred in my heart!" ”

Wei Yan said with a contemptuous face: "Yuan Shu old thief, how can you fight a decisive battle across such a wide river?" If you dare to fight a decisive battle with me, why don't you take a hundred steps back and let my army cross the river before the winner is decided! Of course, if you don't dare, wash your lady surnamed Feng now and get ready, and then you wear women's clothes and dance a dance, I can spare your dog's life! ”

Seeing that Wei Yan dared to make such a joke about the other party's lord in front of the other party's 100,000 horses, and regarded the other party's 100,000 troops like a mustard, it really broke their hearts, and made them feel even more cordial, and they couldn't help laughing.

Yuan Shu was furious: "Wei Yanxiao'er, insult me deeply!" Okay, I'll take a hundred steps back! Let you cross the river! ”

Yan Xiang hurriedly said: "Think twice, Wei Yan'er has always liked to use deception, and this move will inevitably harbor evil intentions!" ”

Yang Hong and Yan Xiang had always been at odds, so he sneered: "Do you know the art of war? If he wades in the water with the whole army, our army can attack halfway, and when the time comes, our 100,000 troops will be dispatched together, even if he Wei Yan has more scheming and more bravery, what is the use! ”

Yan Xiang ignored Yang Hong and advised again: "Lord, now the army of 100,000 is not operating well, it is really appropriate to advance, not to retreat!" ”

Yang Hong shouted: "Now that Wei Yan'er is stupid, he has given us the opportunity to attack halfway, this is such a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to annihilate Wei Yan, do you want the lord to give up?" ”

I have to say that Wei Yan dug a good pit for Yuan Shu!

Yuan Shu has been fighting for nearly ten years, and he is not an out-and-out fool, he knows that half of his men and horses are newly recruited, and his combat strength is worrying, if the two armies are facing each other, and the Wei army is rushing to kill, he can win, and it is also a residual victory, now since Wei Yan gave him the opportunity to attack halfway, why didn't he seize it?

He said loudly: "Now that the two armies are in front of the formation, the reality is already very obvious, what else is there to worry about!" Besides, if they are given the opportunity to retreat to Yiyang New Town, our army will be able to destroy them according to the defense of the city! I've made up my mind! When the Wei army crossed most of the river, our army attacked and killed with all its might, and the Wei army will be annihilated on the Rushui! ”

When he said this, Yan Xiang couldn't say anything, and Ji Ling couldn't say anything, so he had to walk away silently.

Yuan Shu shouted loudly: "Wei Yan'er, our army will take a hundred steps back!" You must cross the river immediately and fight a decisive battle, and Hugh must take the opportunity to escape! ”

Then he gave the order, and the 100,000 men and horses retreated a hundred paces.

Wei Yan looked at Yuan Junguo and then withdrew, and said with a smile to Xu Shu: "Yuan Shu Yuan Road, who is dizzy, really likes to jump pits!" ”

Yuan Shu has always been a dumb guy who makes Zhi faint, he didn't know that this was the pit that Wei Yan dug for him, and thought that it was the opportunity that Wei Yan gave him.

The key point of the battle of Weishui was that Fu Jian listened to Xie Xuan's rhythm.

Fu Jian's army was stationed in Shouyang, and troops were deployed along the river, and Xie Xuan's army could not cross the river. Xie Xuan sent someone to Qin General Fu Rong and said: "You are so far away to our territory, but you are lined up on the edge of the river, this is not to be a quick battle. Please stand back a little so that our troops can cross the river and fight with you. Isn't it also a happy thing for me and you to watch calmly? Fu Jian's subordinates all said: "We should block them on the other side of the river with the help of the water, we have many people and few Jin soldiers, and the situation will definitely be in our favor." Fu Jian said, "Just let the army retreat, let them cross the river, and when they come, we will drive them all into the river with hundreds of thousands of iron horsemen and completely destroy them." Fu Rong also thought that it should be like this, so he commanded the Qin army to retreat, who knew that as soon as the order to retreat was issued, so many people were in chaos at once, and they couldn't control it anymore.

Therefore, the key to this battle lies in whether Yuan Shu is willing to retreat.

The Battle of Huangshui took place during the Northern and Southern Dynasties for more than 180 years, and Yuan Shu didn't know that just a hundred steps back had such a big change in the battle situation.

Yuan Shu has 100,000 people, and he himself is not like Han Xin's "more the merrier" and "like an arm and a finger", his current situation is equivalent to a general who can command a thousand people, and a rabble who insists on commanding 100,000 people, just like a monster with a very small head and a particularly bloated body, every step back may fall because of the crippled cerebellum.

Normally, a few hundred recruits, if they retreat, there will be a messy queue and a commotion, let alone 100,000 people.

Moreover, they turned out to be 100,000 horses concentrated in a narrow section of the river, so the queue was particularly dense, and such a dense queue, once retreated, was particularly prone to riots.

But Yuan Shu and his generals, no one had ever seen such a method of fighting against the half-crossing in the previous war books, that is, Han Xinxin's anti-half-crossing attack back then was not the same as Wei Yan's, so they didn't think of that possibility at all, so they still wishfully thought that Wei Yan would wait until they reorganized their formation before launching a river-crossing attack.

During the period of Chu and Han hegemony, Han Xin attacked Qi, and Xiang Yu sent the general Long He to lead troops to rescue Qi. Long He has always looked down on Han Xin because of the humiliation of his crotch. When the two armies faced each other, Han Xin ordered the troops to quietly plug the upper reaches of Weishui with tens of thousands of sandbags in the night, and the next day led the army to attack Longhe, but later pretended to be defeated and retreated. Long He personally led the army to cross the river to pursue the Han army, Han Xin sent people to break the bag, the river was so big that half of the Long and the army could not cross. Seeing that the opponent's position was in chaos, Han Xin led his troops to attack the vanguard of the opponent's land, killed Long And, and the Qi and Chu coalition forces were defeated.

Wei Yan originally wanted to use Han Xin's move, but he was worried that Yuan Shu's subordinates would be able to see it, so he decided to make the Battle of Weishui in advance to deal with Yuan Shu.

In fact, in addition to dealing with Yuan Shu, this move can't deal with others, because whether it is to deal with Cao Cao in the future (it is estimated that he will not be able to touch Yuan Shao), or to deal with Liu Bei and Sun Ce in the future, the opponent's army is extremely elite, and it is impossible to be like Yuan Shu's army is a rabble, and there will be problems even when retreating.

At this time, Wei Yan took out his binoculars, monoculars, and looked at the retreat of Yuan's army on the other side of the river.

Because the Yuan army had 100,000 people, the front army and the rear army were far apart, and it took a long time to pass the order, waiting for the rear army to retreat before the front army could retreat.

Hundreds of heralds began to gallop around.

After a while, the rear army of Yuan's army began to retreat, and then the momentum of retreat spread to the Chinese army, and gradually to the front army.

Ji Ling kept an eye on it and ordered Yuan Quan (he took the initiative to ask Ying to lead the front army) to lead 10,000 crossbowmen to hold the river bank, and wait until the other horses and horses retreated in place to organize the formation, and then he could retreat.

Yuan Quan complied without hesitation.

At this time, the initiative was on the side of the Wei army.

For the Wei army, the key point is when to attack, if the attack is delayed, the Yuan army will soon be able to organize the formation to fight back, if the attack is earlier, the Yuan army's formation is not chaotic.
