081 Victory
This night must be a sleepless night, under the city of Xiyue, the shouting and killing are continuous, the air exudes a strong smell of blood, everyone's eyes are red, they will cut down when they see people, there are countless dead and wounded on both sides, and the corpses under the city gate are all over the field, and the blood is flowing like a river.
But the soldiers on both sides did not have the slightest intention of retreating, and the corpses at the gate of the city had been piled up layer after layer, but the soldiers in the rear still rushed forward one after another.
This is a war, both armies know that whoever shows weakness will die first, showing weakness represents defeat, representing admitting defeat, one is to defend the country's army, the other is the elite who have survived dozens of battles, both sides have their own beliefs to support them, without fear.
"What? Million? Outside the city, Fan Wei sat on the horse, listening to the words of the herald, his expression was stunned, the Daluo army would come to support, he had already thought of it, but when he heard that there were five million, he was really surprised, according to him, even if the Daluo court sent reinforcements, at most it would not exceed three million, compared to the invasion of Beiyin, their attention should be more Jiuyou.
The standing army of the Daluo Palace is about 10 million at most, and he doesn't believe it if he sends five million at once, it is estimated that there is a lot of moisture in this information, and he muttered for a moment, Fan Wei looked at the sky, it was still a little short of dawn, and turned to the herald and said, "Continue to monitor, if there is any situation, report immediately." ”
The herald promised to retreat, and Fan Wei continued to command the army to attack the city, believing that as long as the reinforcements came, the war on this side was basically at the end of the day, and he had enough time to retreat.
However, an hour passed, and the reinforcements did not appear to have arrived at all, two hours passed, and the reinforcements still did not arrive, until this time, Fan Wei frowned, and had a bad premonition in his heart.
Three hours later, Fan Wei summoned the herald and asked, "How far is Da Luo's reinforcements from here?" ”
The herald looked stunned and said, "Back to the Prime Minister, within a radius of 100 miles, I haven't seen any signs of reinforcements. ”
"No reinforcements?" As soon as he heard this, Fan Wei's face was stunned, it was impossible, even if the reinforcements were slow, there should have been a shadow at this time, although it was dark night, but the army of three million, how could there be some noise.
Since there is no shadow, it means that the reinforcements went somewhere else? Thinking of this, Fan Wei's face changed suddenly, the reinforcements did not come here directly, but most likely went around their rear and cut off their way.
"Give the order to go down, and the whole army retreats! Fast! Fan Wei immediately shouted, the herald's face changed, and he hurriedly obeyed the promise, and after a while, the Northern Yin army sounded the horn of retreat, although the army was confused, but did not dare to delay and retreated.
Fan Wei didn't expect that the reinforcements would go around, and they didn't come to Xiyue City directly to support, they must have gone around their rear and cut off their retreat, it was definitely not Nangong Xin who could think of this method, could it be that there were people in the reinforcements who gave advice?
Nangong Xin was stunned when he saw the sudden retreat of the enemy army, but he was afraid of deception, so he did not chase after him, and the whole army only chased out for more than ten miles before retreating.
Looking back, Xiyue City had already been dilapidated, the city gate was broken, the ground was stained with blood, and the losses on both sides were extremely heavy.
At this time, the sky was already bright, Fan Wei led the army to retreat, seeing that the Da Luo army did not chase after him, his heart was slightly relieved, this Nangong Xin has always been extremely cautious, he must have thought that he had an ambush before he dared to chase.
It is dozens of miles away, it is not far from Dazhai, Fan Wei is far away, there is no trace of the enemy, his face is always calm, his army has just experienced a big battle, it has long been tired, if the reinforcements outflank them from the rear at this time, the consequences are unimaginable.
After walking for more than ten miles, when passing through a mountain range, there was no trace of reinforcements, Fan Wei's heart was slightly relieved, and at this moment, he just wanted to order the whole army to rest, only to see a sudden shout of killing on both sides, Fan Wei looked at it in shock, only to see a large number of Daluo troops suddenly emerging in the distance.
Seeing this scene, Fan Wei hurriedly ordered the whole army to retreat and ran towards the mountain.
When he arrived in the mountains, surrounded by mountains and rocks, he couldn't see the outside vision clearly, Fan Wei looked around, there was silence, and suddenly his face changed "not good"
As soon as the words fell, I saw countless arrow rain suddenly flying on all sides, the army was in chaos, countless soldiers were penetrated by the arrow rain, and died on the spot, Fan Wei was escorted by the army, and they withdrew to the front, the enemy troops in the rear shouted and rushed, and there were more earth-shattering shouts on all sides, Fan Wei's face was a little distorted, listening to this number, not to mention three million, the army in the rear seemed to be as many as a million, and the shouts on both sides were enough to be millions, at this time there were more than a million figures in front of them, and there were earth-shattering shouts in almost all directions, In this way, it is estimated that there are more than five million troops.
Fan Wei didn't understand that the imperial court would really send an army of five million to support, and according to his thoughts, even if it was really sent, it should have rushed directly to Xiyue City, why would he ignore the crisis in Xiyue City and go directly to their rear, which was obviously a posture of wanting to annihilate all their Northern Yin troops in one fell swoop.
Fortunately, Fan Wei reacted in time, if he took a few steps late, I am afraid that their Beiyin army would really die in Xiyue City.
The person who can think of such a ruthless strategy is definitely not a person from the Nangong family, there must be an extremely resourceful military advisor in their army, but Fan Wei can't think of anyone in the Daluo court who can have such courage to give up the safety of Xiyue City, and use the entire Xiyue City as a bait, wanting to annihilate them Beiyin in one fell swoop.
Or, he was determined that Xiyue City and their Beiyin would fight for a while, and they would definitely not be able to distinguish the winner or loser, even if the winner was divided, their Beiyin's losses would be extremely heavy, and when the time came, the Da Luo reinforcements would be able to annihilate their Beiyin in one fell swoop without much effort, and win a complete victory.
If it really turned out to be what they wanted, Fan Youke would really stop there.
Fan Wei was right, Liu Xuan's idea was exactly like this, he just wanted to use the entire Xiyue City as bait, he could sit and reap the profits, and the reason why he did this was that in addition to believing in the military strength of Yi Nangong Xin, it was not easy for Fan Xuan to eat hard, which just gave him the opportunity to lay out.
He led the army to the mountain land in advance, because of the echo, 10,000 people shouted in the valley as if there were a million people, and 100,000 people shouted inside, which was equivalent to tens of thousands of people shouting at the same time, which created an illusion for the Northern Yin army, his army was only one million, but now it seems that it is not as little as five million.
The Northern Yin army was naturally in chaos, only caring about fleeing for its life, thousands of arrows rained down, and the remaining army of less than one million was even more like a chicken and a dog, and it lost more than half of it.
By the time they pursued and killed dozens of miles in a row, Fan Wei had only a few hundred thousand troops left to flee back, but they won a complete victory at a very small cost
