After dusk, the sky gradually darkened, and on the north bank of Yishui, the main army of 100,000 under the command of Murong Ke was ready, ready to launch a fierce attack on the unstable Xie Ai legion.

In the big tent of the Chinese army, Murong Ke was making the final thought, after all, if the main army was transferred to attack the Xie Ai Legion, the Yishui defense line would lose the support of 40,000 reserve forces, and once a position was broken, the entire defense line would be completely broken through, but if the main army was not concentrated to defeat the Xie Ai Legion first, the main army under his command would face a two-sided attack from the Jin army at any time, for this reason, despite the huge risk, Murong Ke had to do so.

"Fourth brother, the soldiers are ready to attack the Xie Ai Legion at any time." Murong Ba rushed into the big tent of the Chinese army and said loudly.

At this moment, the 60,000 troops of the Yan army were already near Fanyang City, confronting the Xie Ai Legion, while the 40,000 reserve army was ready to go in the camp, and as long as Murong Ke gave an order, he could reinforce the past in the direction of Fanyang City, so as to converge with the 60,000 army in front and form a huge strength advantage over the Xie Ai Legion.

When Murong Ke heard this, he stood up and said loudly: "Pass the order, and the army will set off immediately." After speaking, he strode out of the big tent of the Chinese army.

When Murong Ba heard the order, together with Murong Ke, he led the main army of 40,000 to march in the direction of Fanyang City, preparing to join the 60,000 army in front of him, thus defeating Xie Ai's army in one fell swoop.

Just when Murong Ke led his soldiers and horses to march in the direction of Fanyang City, Xie Ai's army was also actively preparing for battle, and the lone army went deep behind enemy lines, and Xie Ai was always concerned about the safety of his army. For Murong Ke's possible nest attack, he had already prepared, so he was not afraid of Murong Ke's main army.

At the moment, Xie Ai relied on the 20,000 charioteers under Yang An's command the most, with the cooperation of the 20,000 reserve corps, the charioteers under Yang An's command could exert great power against several times the Yan State cavalry, and Zhang Hao's 20,000 elite cavalry could be deployed on the flanks to respond to Yang An's charioteers at any time.

And in order to let the 20,000 charioteers under Yang An's command give full play to their greatest advantages. Xie Ai stationed his army in an open area. And deploy the charioteers under Yang An's command in the direction of facing the Yan army.

"General, in a few hours, the king's main army will attack the north bank of Yishui, and our army must attack with all its strength at that time. thus dragging some of Murong Ke's soldiers and horses. In order to respond to the king's main army, he successfully broke through the Yishui defense line. Yang An Zhengse said.

Xie Ai heard this. He said softly: "This is natural, however, the army of the Yan Kingdom in front of our army is fully preparing for war. It seems that there is an attempt to take the initiative to attack our army! After speaking, he frowned slightly.

"General, if the army of Yan takes the initiative to attack, and our army in the province attacks, this is not necessarily a bad thing, and our army will definitely be able to defeat the army of Yan." Zhang Oyster said confidently.

After all, the soldiers and horses under Xie Ai's command were deployed in a flat area, and with Yang An's 20,000 charioteers, it was enough to deter the army of Yan State, thus making himself invincible.

"Report, general, Murong Ke, the chief general of the Yan army, personally commanded an army of 40,000 and killed in the direction of our army's camp, and it seems that there is an attempt to attack our army." At this moment, a henchman colonel rushed into the big tent of the Chinese army and reported with his fists in his fist.

Xie Ai was slightly shocked when he heard this, although this situation had been expected by him for a long time, but when it really happened, he still couldn't help but be shocked.

"General, there are already 60,000 Yan troops opposite our army, if Murong Ke personally leads 40,000 troops to kill, the Yan Kingdom's soldiers and horses will reach 100,000, and it will still be very stressful for our army." When Yang An heard this, he said worriedly.

Although the 20,000 charioteers under his command had fought against the elite cavalry of the 80,000 Dai Kingdom alone without defeat, the elite iron rope cavalry of the Yan Kingdom was even more well-equipped, so Yang An was still a little worried when facing the army of the Yan Kingdom with the iron rope cavalry as the core.

Different from Yang An's worries, Zhang Hao was completely excited, and said loudly: "General, Murong Ke dispatched an army of 100,000 to attack our army, so that the soldiers and horses defending the north bank of Yishui will inevitably be insufficient, so that the king's main army can cross Yishui more easily, so as to completely break through the Yishui defense line of the Yan army." ”

Xie Ai thought for a long time, and said: "The whole army immediately prepared for battle, preparing to resist the attack of the main cavalry of the Yan Kingdom. ”

"Yes, General." Yang An and Zhang Oyster shouted their orders.

Immediately, the main army under Xie Ai began to prepare for battle, preparing to meet the upcoming attack of Murong Ke's army.

On the south bank of Yishui, Hua An and his subordinate generals were in the tent of the Chinese army, discussing the specific plan of forcible crossing, and a confidant lieutenant rushed in and carefully reported the matter of Murong Ke's concentration of the main force to attack the Xie Ai army.

Knowing that Murong Ke had adopted various strategies to break through, preparing to break the Xie Ai Legion first, remove the threat of the flanks, and then go all out to deal with the main force of the Jin army on the south bank of Yishui, Hua An and his subordinates were all shocked, so the pressure on Xie Ai's army was very huge, and in order to reduce the pressure on Xie Ai's army, the main army must immediately launch a fierce attack on the north bank of Yishui, that is to say, the plan to force Yishui to cross Yishui must be implemented in advance.

"Your Majesty, Murong Ke personally led the main army to attack General Xie's soldiers and horses, the Yishui defense line must be weak, and our army will launch a forcible crossing on the whole line, and we will definitely be able to break the Yishui defense line of the Yan army in one fell swoop." Zhuge Xiong said loudly.

"Your Majesty, the officers and men of our army are already impatient, and if we don't attack immediately, we will wait for when." Deng Qiang said loudly.

Hua An nodded and said loudly: "Pass the order, the whole army will immediately prepare to attack, and tonight is the day when our army breaks through the Yishui defense line." ”

"Yes, Your Majesty." The ministers will lead with a loud voice.

Subsequently, the troops under Hua'an's command will immediately leave the Chinese army's tent, return to their respective camps, and quickly organize the army under their command to prepare to force the crossing of Yishui.

After the generals left, Hua An was alone in the big tent of the Chinese army, carefully thinking about the next forced crossing operation, and predicting various situations that might occur, and then finding a solution.

After some careful consideration, Hua An walked out of the Chinese army's tent and stood on a high platform on the south bank of Yishui, watching the various armies under his command actively building pontoon bridges.

In order to have a surprise effect, Hua'an let the 500 small wooden boats closest to the downstream hide first, and let Wang San and his 10,000 personal guards also ambush in the downstream direction.

#####

In the direction of Fanyang City, Murong Ke and the 100,000 troops under his command were ready to attack, while Xie Ai and the 60,000 Jin army soldiers under his command were also ready to resist, and both sides were all gearing up, ready to fight to the death.

"Fourth brother, the Jin army uses charioteers as the vanguard to organize defense, which is a great threat to our cavalry, if we completely adopt the method of frontal attack, even if our army occupies the advantage of troops, it may not be able to achieve victory, it is better to adopt a three-sided attack strategy, so that the charioteers of the Jin army are difficult to take care of the left and right." Murong Ba said loudly.

When Murong Ke heard this, he thought for a moment, and said: "The impact of the Jin army's chariot troops is extremely great, if it is a head-on confrontation, even the iron rope cavalry may not be able to take advantage, however, the chariot mobility is not good, if our army adopts a multi-faceted offensive strategy to fight with the Jin army, it can indeed gain a lot of advantages, if it is still unable to break the Jin army's charioteers, you can also retreat calmly, after all, the Jin army's charioteers cannot catch up with our cavalry." ”

Obviously, Murong Ke supported the launch of a multi-faceted simultaneous attack, which could force the charioteers of the Jin army to divide their forces to resist the enemy, and if the charioteers of the Jin army blindly attacked forward, the flanks would be completely exposed to the attack of the Yan army.

After pondering for a moment, Murong Ke officially ordered: "The whole army will attack immediately, and attack from three sides at the same time. ”

"Yes, General." The generals of the Yan Army shouted the order, and immediately followed Murong Ke's instructions and launched a fierce attack on Xie Ai's army in three directions.

Seeing that the army of Yan State was attacking him in three ways, Xie Ai did not dare to slack off, and hurriedly divided 10,000 of the 20,000 charioteers under Yang An's command, and arranged 5,000 men and horses on the left and right wings to block the impact of the elite cavalry of Yan State.

The charioteers of the Jin army are powerful, but the combat power of the iron rope cavalry of the Yan State is not weak at all, in the case of dividing the troops and attacking in multiple ways, the army of the Yan State completely occupies the initiative, and the charioteers and reserve corps under the command of Xie Ai can only be in a defensive situation, in order to suppress the arrogance of the Yan army, the 20,000 cavalry under the command of Zhang Oyster also joined the battle group, although the shape shì has improved a little, but in general, the situation of the two sides is in a state of extreme stalemate, and it seems that no one can defeat the other party.

And such a situation is extremely unfavorable to Murong Ke's army, after all, the main force of the Jin army on the south bank of Yishui is looking at the north bank of Yishui, if it cannot quickly defeat the Xie Ai army, the Yishui defense line is in danger of being broken by the main force of the Jin army.

"Fourth brother, I really didn't expect that the 100,000 main force of our army would not be able to quickly break through the 60,000 horses under Xie Ai's command, and it would be extremely unfavorable to our army if it continued like this!" Obviously, Murong Ba also discovered this extremely unfavorable situation.

Murong Ke sighed when he heard this, obviously, his heart was very anxious and helpless at this moment.

"General, the main force of the Jin army has built a pontoon bridge on the south bank of Yishui, and it seems that it is going to force the crossing of Yishui." Just when the Jin army and the Yan army were fighting hard, news came from the direction of Yishui that was extremely unfavorable to the Yan army.

Murong Ke heard this, naturally very nervous, at this moment, the main force of the Jin army has begun to build a pontoon bridge, there will not be much time to launch an attack, the Yishui defense line is not enough soldiers and horses, it is difficult to guarantee that it can block the attack of the main force of the Jin army, if you can't quickly break through the Xie Ai legion, immediately return to the north bank of Yishui, the Yishui defense line is in danger of being broken by the Jin army.
