Seventy-seven, the first battle: attack against attack

In this way, Wei Yi, as the commander of the Dushan front, came to Dushan with 20,000 people, plus the remaining people of Zhang Bao, a total of more than 27,000 people, and Zhao Ling, the commander of the Qin army, launched a battle of life and death for their own strategic purposes.

As soon as Wei Yi arrived, he saw that Zhang Bao was relieved that he didn't even check the talisman, and he was about to hand over the power. Wei Yi hurriedly stopped: "General Zhang! General Tiger had already anticipated things like a god, and knew that you would be like this; Therefore he gave me his sword and asked me to tell you that the defeat in this battle was not the fault of your battle, but the fault of your character. Therefore, I will reallocate 5,000 men to you, and under my command, you will attack full-time! Do you want to do it? If you don't do it, you will report to General Tiger by yourself. ”

Zhang Bao's eyes widened: "Dry." Why not? If I don't earn my face back, how can I see General Tiger? But please do me a favor! It is better for my 7,000 troops to be broken up and reorganized, and I can't ask for any of my new 5,000 troops. Okay? ”

"Okay." Wei Yi was simply and said directly: "There is no problem with your tactics, very good." You still take your personal guards, use the newly allocated 5,000 troops, and continue the attack for me according to the old way! How many people you have lost in battle, I will replenish you as many people, and I will always ensure that your 5,000 people will not change, until all of them occupy Dushan. ”

Zhang Bao gratefully beat his chest and saluted, and returned in a deep voice: "General Hu, who knows me!" Dare to use my son like this! Childe, you will boldly command me! If I Zhang Bao doesn't say a word, or fights, I'm not a man. After speaking, he took the talisman from Wei Yi and ran to transfer the army.

Wei Yi came to the front position less than 100 steps away from the Qin army's position, looked at the Qin army's position carefully, looked at it, and suddenly had a flash of inspiration, and asked the two military commanders who accompanied him to watch the enemy's situation: "Have you seen it?" The Qin army is busy transferring troops and arranging formations, looking at their busy appearance, it seems that most of them are recruits? ”

The two commanders agreed. One of them, Lieutenant General Wei Shu, said: "Childe! Zhang Bao's tactics are actually very good, especially the detour to outflank the back road. He didn't adopt it later, and I think it's because there are few others. Now that there are more of us, I will take 5,000 people to copy the back road of the Qin army. Even if your Qin army competes with me for these small mountain bags, you can always contain the same strength of the Qin army, and relieve the pressure for Zhang Bao's frontal attack. I can't say it, if I am not careful, I will really succeed if I catch Qin Jun's negligence. ”

Another military commander who taught Pang Hu said: "Five thousand is not enough. What did 5,000 people do in such a large area of mountains? I saw that the two of us, one with 6,000 people, attacked along both sides of the post road, one mountain bag and one mountain bag, steadily and steadily, and forced the Qin army out step by step. Anyway, we have already obtained the territory where the army is camped, so we are not in a hurry, it is the Qin army that is in a hurry. Look! The Qin army was busy with this and that, that is, he was busy preparing for the attack. ”

After hearing this, Wei Yi laughed happily: "Okay! Just do as you say. I will give you 6,000 men for each person, General Pang is in charge of the left side of the post road, and General Shu is in charge of the right side of the post road. The attack range of the two of you is: half a mile away from the post road, all the Qin troops. Look! Now you will lead the people around the mountain pack in front of you. I estimate that the Qin army defended at least five miles, so it was necessary to bypass five miles and then insert it behind them to attack. The attack time is the time when the Qin army attacks me. When you hear the sound of my drums, you don't care if the Qin army notices it or not, attack immediately! ”

"Yes! Son. The two marshals stepped forward excitedly, and after beating their chests and saluting, they hurried to mobilize the troops, and went to the mountains and bushes to make a detour.

It feels so good to command the general, so Wei Yi, who was excited and happy, had a very clear brain, and after the commander left, he gathered the remaining 17,000 troops and arranged Zhang Bao's 5,000 troops at the front, just charge. He also mobilized 6,000 troops, divided them into two parts, and sent two major generals to command them separately, and the task was to attack the small hills on both sides of the post road, half a mile away, but it was only a feint, and it was necessary to wait until the Qin army launched an attack on the Wei army, and then attack with all its might. The remaining 6,000 troops, under the leadership of the three division commanders, served as the central army, supporting Zhang Bao in the battle, under his own command. After arranging this qiē, he ordered the pot to be buried and cooked, anyway, there was food and dead horses along the road, and the food was made as good as possible, so that the sergeant could eat and drink to his heart's content. At the same time, he also ordered the baggage army, and after the army finished eating, he immediately rushed to make 30,000 dry rations, which he wanted in the middle of the night.

After Wei Yi finished arranging, he found a big cart and slept directly on the cart, waiting for the attack of the Qin army.

Qin Jun was also regarded as Wei Yi's confidant, and it was not until Wei Jun finished eating and rested that the first round of attacks was launched at four o'clock in the Shen period. Wei Yi looked at the time, he never came to the front of the battle from time to time, and saw that the Qin army was busy preparing for the attack, and now it took a whole hour to the fourth quarter of the Shen hour, which shows that the Qin army is not an ordinary new army, it is completely a new army with insufficient training. Wei Yi was determined in his heart, and he had more confidence in capturing Dushan.

In the sound of drums and horns, the Qin army continued to pour out of the defense line in front of the army, and the black pressure pressed towards the Wei army. The two sides were only a hundred paces apart, so the Wei army did not wait for Wei Yi's military order, and the military officials at all levels had already ordered the archers to prepare. Zhang Bao's eyes were even brighter, one of the person's legs had already stepped on the sack in front of the formation, and he just waited for Wei Yi's military order to jump out of the military formation. But Wei Yi was not in a hurry, squinting at the Qin army, he was carefully observing the combat power of the Qin army. After the Qin army advanced to fifty steps, a row of 100 people, and the ten rows in front of them raised their bows and arrows and threw a rain of arrows at the Wei army. The Wei army had already prepared, and the swordsmen picked up their shields one after another, covering the archers and spearmen, and for a while, they only heard a crackling sound in the Wei army's array, and from time to time someone howled, and from time to time someone fell to the ground, but no one panicked and moved.

Wei Yi didn't shoot arrows to counterattack according to the convention, so he waited, and after letting the Qin army finish throwing the arrow rain, he didn't shout until he saw the archers of the Qin army retreating: Archers prepare! The three thousand archers of the Wei army raised their bows and arrows with a bang, and as soon as the drums sounded, they released their arrows in unison. Wei Hu was not in a hurry, he still looked at Qin Jun very patiently, and after slightly reorganizing the formation fifty steps away, he heard a horn sound terrible! The sound of the trumpet was followed by the earth-shattering drums. Qin Jun suddenly moved. This movement, like a wild horse on the loose, like a flash flood, rushed towards the Wei army's defensive formation less than two hundred paces wide. Only then did Wei Yi shout: "Release the arrow!" The drums beat to the beat of the shouts. The rain of arrows descended towards the Qin army with the sound of drums.

Qin Jun is too! Since they rushed fearlessly under the rain of arrows, the rain of arrows only came down for two rounds, and it stopped falling. Only then did Zhang Bao get Wei Yi's military order: "Attack!" "With a sortie, there were originally only five big drums directing the arrows, but now there are twenty big drums and ten horns, directing the Wei army to counterattack the charge! For a moment, the sound of drums and trumpets on both sides, and the shouts of the sergeants, became the only reverberation in this valley. This was followed by the clanging of weapons and the howl of a wounded person. Wei Yi and Zhao Ling's first stop: the attack against the attack started a fierce fight.
