Tuoba Shiyi Jian thought for a moment, and said angrily: "In just a few days, even if the Jin army has formed a chariot unit, how can it be well-trained. ”

"Wang, the last general also wondered at the time, but after the battle, I found out that the Jin army's chariot troops advanced and retreated in an orderly manner, and their combat effectiveness was extremely strong, which was not something that our army could shake." The general of the acting army, who was kneeling on the ground, clenched his fists and said truthfully.

Tuoba Shi Yijian was furious when he heard this, and shouted: "A bunch of nonsense, this king sees that you are frightened by the chariot of the Jin army, there are 80,000 troops under the command of this king, are you still afraid that the Jin army will not succeed, gather all the soldiers and horses, this king will personally meet this Xie Ai." ”

At this time, Tuoba Shi Yijian had a plan in mind, he believed that the Jin army's chariot troops could not be well-trained in a short period of time, and the reason why the Jin army could defeat the army under his command was that Tuoba Shi Yijian felt that it was because the army under his command launched a frontal attack, which made the originally neatly arranged Jin army charioteers calmly meet the battle without having to adjust the formation too much.

If you lead the main army and attack from multiple directions of the Jin army's chariots at the same time, the Jin army's chariots must adjust their formations to meet the battle, so that the poorly trained Jin chariot troops are bound to fall into chaos, and once the Jin army's chariot troops fall into chaos, Tuoba Shi Yijian has enough confidence that the Jin army's chariot troops can be broken individually, so as to completely defeat the Jin army.

Soon, the main army under the command of Tuoba Shi Yijian was all ready for battle, and it was only necessary to give an order to launch an attack immediately.

At the same time, Xie Ai and Yang An led a 20,000 chariot troops. They have arrived less than a mile outside the camp of the Dai Army, and have lined up their formations to prepare for a decisive battle with the main army of the Dai Army.

Zhang Hao rode his horse to Xie Ai, hugged his fists and said: "General, the main army of the Daiguo is in front, launch an attack immediately!" ”

"General, if you can capture Tuoba Shi Yijian alive, it will be a great achievement." Yang An also pleaded loudly.

Xie Ai nodded and said softly, "General Yang, you lead all the charioteers to advance slowly. General Zhang. You lead 20,000 cavalry in the rear, ready to respond to General Yang. ”

"The last will obey." Yang An and Zhang Hao hugged their fists at the same time to receive their lives.

Subsequently, Yang An led the 20,000 charioteers under his command and slowly advanced in the direction of the Dai army camp. Zhang Hao led an army of 20,000 to press the rear in the rear. Always ready to respond to Yang An's army.

On the side of the Dai Army. Seeing the chariot troops of the Jin army, the acting king Tuoba Shiyi saw the chariot troops of the Jin army, lined up in a neat formation and slowly pressed towards his own army, and a sneer of disdain appeared on the corner of his mouth. After a pause, he ordered: "The whole army will attack immediately, the left and right flanks will make a detour, and attack the Chariot Soldiers of Daiguo from all sides, and rush to ......"

"Kill the ......" Under the order of Tuoba Shi Yijian, the 80,000 cavalry of the Dai Army rushed to the 20,000 charioteers under Yang An's command, and when they were less than a stone's throw away from the charioteers, they began to divide into left and right wings, preparing to surround the charioteers under Yang An's command from both wings.

Seeing that the Daiguo cavalry made a detour to his two wings, Yang An immediately made a decision, and sent five battalions of soldiers and horses to the left and right wings, and let each battalion fight separately, and make every effort to eliminate the living force of the Daijun army.

After all, all the charioteers have only been trained for less than 10 days, and the coordination with the battalion as a unit is quite flexible, but if the advance and retreat of the large corps are coordinated, it will be very inflexible, so that the command of the operation can only be handed over to the battalion masters, so that the more than 200 chariots of each battalion can give full play to the advantages of the group and greatly annihilate the living force of the cavalry of the representative army.

The ten battalions under Yang An's command have successfully smashed into the cavalry of the Dai Army who are trying to make a roundabout back attack, and have had a fierce battle with them, and the ten battalions that continue to advance have also had a fierce battle with the main cavalry of the Dai Army.

Although the strength is at an absolute disadvantage, the combat power of the charioteers is really not ordinarily strong, the bows and arrows shot by the enemy cavalry are often blocked by the heavy wooden planks on the chariots, and the arrows shot by the charioteers of the Jin army, the cavalry of the Dai army can not dodge, and often fall off the horse with arrows, and die with a whimper.

In close combat, because there is a driver who specializes in manipulating the chariot, therefore, the fighting soldiers on the chariot can let go of their hands and feet to fight with the enemy cavalry, while the cavalry of the army also has to take care of the war horse under the crotch, so that they are a little distracted and can not fight with all their strength, in addition, the soldiers on the chariot can be back to back, covering each other, so as not to worry about the cold guns and cold arrows behind them, and the survivability is greatly improved.

Of course, while the advantages of the charioteers are numerous, the disadvantages are also very obvious, that is, once the enemy cavalry has fled with all its strength or entered the rugged hills, the charioteers are helpless.

This time, the cavalry of the Dai Army launched an attack from the periphery and avoided being besieged by the charioteers of the Jin army, thus gaining great tactical flexibility, as long as the situation was unfavorable, they could immediately evacuate, thus disengaging from the charioteers of the Jin army.

Zhang Oy, who was standing in the rear of the formation, saw that the cavalry of the Dai Army had divided and surrounded the charioteers under Yang An's command, and he was nervous, and hurriedly hugged his fists and said: "General, the cavalry of the Dai Army has divided and surrounded the charioteers of our army, and our army should be reinforced immediately." ”

Seeing that Zhang Hao was anxious to ask for battle, Xie Ai waved his hand and said, "General Zhang doesn't have to worry, although the cavalry of the Dai Army divided and surrounded our army's charioteers, they can't gnaw on the hard bone of charioteers." ”

"General, is that what our army is looking at?" Zhang Hao asked in surprise.

Seeing the surprise on Zhang Hao's face, Xie Ai looked at the soldiers beside him and said softly: "Send a signal, let General Zhao Wu lead all the soldiers and horses of the Mengshan battalion to raid the camp of the Dai army." ”

"Yes, General." The soldiers responded and immediately went to prepare.

When Zhang Hao heard this, he immediately understood Xie Ai's intentions, so he hugged his fists and said: "The general's meaning is to first let the soldiers and horses under General Zhao raid the camp of the Dai Army, and then the cavalry of our army will attack immediately, so as to completely defeat the Dai Guo cavalry." ”

Xie Ai smiled and nodded, and hinted that Zhang Hao did not need to worry.

Soon, a large fire was ignited at a high port, and as the fire was extinguished, a thick puff of smoke rose high.

It didn't take long for a pile of smoke to light up a few miles away, this was Xie Ai's scouts arranged in advance, they saw the smoke rising from the place where the army was stationed, so they lit the smoke in turn, so as to convey Xie Ai's military orders to Zhao Wu as quickly as possible.

Soon, Zhao Wu of the Mengshan camp found the smoke in the distance, and he had received Xie Ai's order in advance that as long as he saw the smoke, he would lead all the soldiers and horses of the Mengshan camp at any cost to kill the camp where Tuoba Shi Yijian was located.

Zhao Wu looked in the direction of the smoke for a while, and said loudly: "Pass the order, and all the troops will immediately go to the Dai army camp." ”

The soldiers of the Jin army in the Mengshan camp had long been ready for war, so with Zhao Wu's order, the 40,000 soldiers of the Jin army rushed from the top of the mountain to the foot of the mountain like a tiger descending the mountain.

Tuoba Shiyijian, who was watching the battle on the battlefield, saw the main cavalry under his command, dividing and surrounding the charioteers of the Jin army, and he was very proud, he believed that even if the charioteers of the Jin army were strong, once they were divided and surrounded, they would not be able to play the effect of cluster combat, and it would be a matter of time before they were defeated.

"Your Majesty, the charioteers of the Jin army are closely coordinated, and our army has been unable to overcome it for a long time, and there have been heavy casualties." Just when Tuoba Shi Yijian got carried away, a subordinate general rode back and reported helplessly.

Tuoba Shi Yijian was shocked when he heard this, he didn't expect that the power of the Jin army's charioteers was so great that they could resist several times the enemy army without being defeated.

"Your Majesty, chariots are best at fighting in flat open land, so why should our army fight a decisive battle in a place where this allows the Jin charioteers to give full play to their advantages? It's better to retreat immediately! As long as our army retreats to the camp, it will be difficult for the Jin army's charioteers to give full play to their advantages. A subordinate general beside him said helplessly.

Hearing this, Tuoba Shiyi Jian fell into deep thought, his arrogance caused great losses to the army under his command, and also humiliated the entire Dai country, but his biggest mistake was that he did not expect that such a large-scale chariot force would suddenly appear in the Jin army, let alone that the chariot troops of the Jin army would be so powerful.

At this time, the main cavalry of the Dai army has been intertwined with the chariot troops of the Jin army, and if they retreat rashly, will they form a complete rout, which makes Tuoba Shiyijian very worried.

"Report, Wang, the Jin army raided our army's camp." Just when Tuoba Shi Yijian was extremely worried, even worse news came.

When Tuoba Shi Yijian and the generals beside him heard this, they were all surprised, and immediately turned around and looked in the direction of the big camp, only to see that in the big camp behind him, huge fireworks had been ignited, and tens of thousands of Jin army infantry were surging and killing.

"Your Majesty, is the Jin infantry of the Mengshan battalion, with 40,000 people?"

"Your Majesty, our army's camp has been captured by the Jin army, how can this be good."

"Your Majesty, the shape is already extremely unfavorable to our army, evacuate immediately!"

The generals of the army of all generations discussed anxiously.

Just when the generals of the Dai Army were anxious, Xie Ai saw the thick smoke in the Dai Jun camp, which showed that the army under Zhao Wu had successfully captured the Dai Jun camp and began to raid the flank and rear of the Dai Army.

"General Zhang, it's time for you to make a move." Xie Ai looked at Zhang Hao and ordered loudly.

Zhang Hao was already impatient, and when he saw Xie Ai ordering him to attack, he immediately led his 20,000 cavalry and rushed towards the battlefield.

"Your Majesty, the 20,000 main cavalry of the Jin army has also been reinforced, and the defeat of our army has been decided, so retreat immediately!"

"Your Majesty, give the order to retreat! Otherwise, the main forces of our army are in danger of being completely annihilated. ”

Several acting generals anxiously pleaded. (To be continued......)
