In the dawn light, Lingyun's army was like a fierce beast with teeth and claws, hideous.

Compared to the chaotic Qingshan Allied army, the Huaihuang army seemed so neat, the pikemen in a phalanx blocked the middle of the road leading to the bottom of the mountain, and on the left and right of the road were archers with strange longbows that had never been seen before, with long bows standing in front of them, birch arrows dangling at their waists. Behind Rulin's spear array, rows of light infantry armed with horizontal swords and shields set up a heavy crossbow position with a hundred Fuyuan heavy crossbows.

The right flank is full of cavalry, with a thousand horsemen, light cowhide armor and steel helmets, and half of the cavalry of the Huaihuang Army is arranged here, like a sharp saber. The sharpest sword of this Huaihuang army was commanded by the left and right forwards Shan Xiongxin and Qin Shubao, and the two young hussar generals also had two tricolor back flags on their backs, and there was also a flag bearer next to them holding a tall general flag. Shan Xiongxin's flag is holding a red flag with a yellow edge, and Qin Qiong's flag is holding a blue flag with a white edge. Behind them, there are flags of generals, battalions, brigades, and teams.

Yi Feng sat on the opposite hillside a little behind, surrounded by reserves, half cavalry and half infantry, numbering two thousand. As the commander of the whole army, Ling Yun did not like the habit of charging ahead, he understood his duty, and it was his duty to sit in the Chinese army and lead the overall situation. Being on the hillside, he can clearly see the battlefield in front of him, can grasp the battlefield situation at the first time, mobilize the formation according to the situation, and even put the reserve in the most needed place at the most appropriate time.

Since he was watching from a distance at the foot of Peach Mountain from afar, Lingyun was still so dazzling and remarkable.

Lingyun's Warframe. None of the leaders of the thirty-six villages under the peach mountain can compare with it, even the set of gold-lacquered mountain armor of the big boss of the Red Eagle Village will be overshadowed by it. Lingyun's armor was covered with a large cloak. Directly woven from gold thread, not only the material is expensive, but also weaves the pattern of the heavenly soldiers and generals on it, and compared with the ordinary silk cloak, this golden thread cloak is extremely heavy, draped to the body and falls down, even when galloping will not float. It has excellent anti-arrow ability. Sitting on the horse, almost even the hind legs of the war horse are completely folded. This cloak weighs eighteen pounds, and ordinary cloak hooks can't bear it at all. Therefore, there was a pair of unicorns lying on the shoulders of Lingyun's armor, opening their mouths wide, just swallowing the cloak buckle hook. Matching the shoulders of the two unicorns is Lingyun's unicorn silver helmet, which is on top of the silver helmet. A golden unicorn stands tall. He opened his mouth and roared, and his claws threw himself into the air. In addition to these three unicorns, there was also a golden unicorn on the silver belt around Ling Yun's waist that was tied to his armor. On the top of a pair of silver boots, there are also two golden unicorns resting on them.

This golden wisp is matched with five golden unicorns, silver helmets, and bright silver armor, stepping down the white dragon horse. The end is very dazzling.

The Silver Helmet is not a common light armor, nor is it an ordinary fish scale armor. Rather, it is a pair of mountain armor with interlaced mountain characters, which is heavier and has stronger defensive capabilities. Equipped with heart goggles, knee pads, shin armor, and arm armor iron gloves, it shines in the light of the rising sun.

In fact, Ling Yun didn't wear this suit of armor when he was marching, but right now, he was wearing this set of armor, of course, just for the sake of momentum. The two-zhang tall Daxu Shuai flag, as well as various flags such as the general's flag, the general's flag, and the Huaihuang military flag fluttering behind him, plus the three five-color back flags on Ling Yun's back, do have a bit of the feeling of singing Peking Opera.

However, the effect is very good, the sudden appearance of the Huaihuang Army, coupled with the bright armor of the Huaihuang Army, the shining swords and guns, the neat array, such as the spear of the forest, and the banner like the sea, invisibly formed a heavy deterrent, pressing on the opposite side of these bandit coalition troops one by one shortness of breath, pale.

The old knife handle also inhaled secretly, looking at the young commander who was wearing such a dazzling drape on the opposite side, he didn't understand what the young man had in mind?

Why didn't they take advantage of their unpreparedness to raid the Momoyama coalition forces? In his opinion, if the Huaihuang army raids, it will definitely take a big advantage.

They suddenly killed, but they didn't attack, they just set up a formation, and they were still wearing such a sassy bag, what were they doing? Do you want to surrender without a fight? The old knife shook his head, the sudden appearance of the Huaihuang Army was indeed unexpected, and their equipment and morale army formation also greatly shocked him, but even so, would he surrender without firing an arrow, this is too naïve.

However, although the old knife did not intend to surrender, he did not dare to attack rashly.

If the enemy does not move, I will not move. I have to say that the Huaihuang Army gave him a great sense of oppression, so that he did not dare to move lightly.

"Those damn scouts, didn't they say that Yi Thirteen was shrinking in Wild Fox City and didn't dare to come out, why did Yi Thirteen suddenly appear silently at the foot of Peach Mountain. Those dogs should all be killed. Zhang Cheng rode his horse to the banner of the Chinese army, and the Huaihuang army suddenly arrived, and the previous battle plan was completely useless, and now they had to discuss a countermeasure.

"Now is not the time to take care of those sentinels, let's think about how to deal with this uninvited Yi Thirteen." The leader of Wuyangzhai was a little panicked in his heart, "Alliance leader, you said that this Yi Thirteen is there like this, and he doesn't attack, what is this for?" ”

"I think they must have come from a long distance, and they may be regaining their strength right now." Another walled road.

Zhang Cheng sneered at the words of the owner of the village: "Yehuling is almost a hundred and fifty miles here, and it comes from a long distance? Then after they ran here, they could still be so imposing and expelling such a solemn array? I see that they are not at all like a continuous march, but as if they were under our noses yesterday, but we did not notice them, and then they rested all night under our noses, and they blocked our mountain early this morning. As for why I didn't take advantage of my unpreparedness to attack, I think it may be that Yi Thirteen is not as numerous as me, so if I want to fight steadily, the biggest possibility is that these five thousand men and horses are just the front army, and Yi Thirteen and the follow-up men and horses are coming. ”

"This Yi Thirteen, I really underestimated him. We haven't beaten him yet, but he has come to the door, and he is really not afraid of death. One of the owners laughed.

But no one echoed him, although there were only about 5,000 men in front of him. But the owners of each village are not idle people, so they can naturally see the gap between the 5,000 people and their own coalition army, although the number of people is small. Strong, but much better than the other. With such elite soldiers in hand, it is not unusual to go out of the city and take the initiative to fight. At this time, many village owners have even secretly regretted it, why didn't they seriously investigate the reality of Huaihuang Town in advance, if they knew that Yi Shisan's subordinates had such elites, how could they hastily form an alliance with the old knife to crusade against Huaihuang.

"Alliance leader, let's attack!"

"Nope." The old knife shook his head decisively. Although the coalition forces were not attacked and were assembled, many people were terrified. Now morale is low. At this time, it is too unwise to rush to the opposite strong formation.

"But if you wait any longer, Yi Thirteen's army is estimated to be coming." Zhang Cheng said with some concern.

"If the enemy doesn't move, I won't move." The old knife still refused to attack immediately. He's still going to watch. Wait for your chance. Now the Huaihuang army in front of them has no flaws at all, and they forcibly attack, and they can't please them. A shrewd hunter must not be without patience. When you don't have a chance, you have to wait.

Under the banner of the Huaihuang Army, Shan Xiongxin and Qin Qiong and other generals also rushed to the tent, and Shan Xiongxin had a loud voice. Lao Yuan had already shouted: "Dashuai, why don't you give the order to attack!" ”

Ling Yun was also a little tired after dozens of pounds of draped over his body. But there was no impatience.

"No hurry!"

Shan Xiongxin reined in his horse beside Ling Yun and jumped off the horse, the nail leaves of his whole body clanged, his hand pressed on the hilt of his sword, and his iron boots made a heavy sound when he stepped on the ground. "What are you waiting for, you should say it clearly, handsome. Last night, we marched twenty miles outside Taoshan, what a good opportunity to raid at night, but you won't let you. We have to let everyone camp on the spot. Then set off early in the morning, when the thieves on Peach Mountain were still defenseless, defenseless at all, if they attacked in one fell swoop, maybe they could also break the enemy in one fell swoop, and you didn't let the attack be attacked, and let the horn blow below, stop the front, and battle under the mountain, so that they hurriedly assembled, and missed the great opportunity. Now, they have assembled and lined up, and we are not attacking yet, what are we waiting for? ”

Shan Xiongxin's words expressed the doubts in the hearts of most of the generals in the army at this time.

Several opportunities to miss, what are you waiting for?

Ling Yun glanced at him and said calmly, "Of course, we are waiting for the opportunity to win!" ”

Shan Xiongxin was puzzled, "I have let go of several opportunities to win in front of me, what are you waiting for to win?" ”

Ling Yun's stern gaze swept over the generals, "The surprise attack is a double-edged sword, although we can catch the opponent off guard, but you must also understand that the number of opponents is five times as many as ours. And Momoyama is dangerous, easy to defend and difficult to attack. Although the garrison of Momoyama is not strict, the men and horses of the 36th Battalion, the most elite main force of the Allied army, are all arranged in the middle of the mountain and the Heshan Mountain, and there are a large number of miscellaneous soldiers from various villages at the foot of the mountain. As soon as we launch a surprise attack, these miscellaneous soldiers will be alarmed to prepare the main forces on the mountain for a long time. Once the suddenness of the raid is lost, how much advantage do you think we have when the raid battle turns to the mountain attack? ”

There are also some reasons why Ling Yun didn't say it directly, and Ling Yun was not too relieved about the soldiers under him. Although they already have some elite appearance on the surface, after all, they have only exterminated some small cottages, and even after destroying many small cottages in Yanshan, these people have some arrogance. But in essence, they are still new recruits, and they have never fought any real large-scale battles. Once you lose your formation and get into a scuffle with the enemy on Momoyama, you won't have any advantage at all.

Veterans can fight scattered, but new recruits are the most dependent on military formations. The loss of the military formation is equivalent to the loss of effective command, then they are no different from ordinary bandits.

Therefore, Ling Yun would rather let go of a few excellent surprise attack opportunities than take that risk.

Ling Yun raised his head again and glanced at the array of soldiers and horses on the opposite side, and found that the other party had no intention of taking the initiative to attack at all. chuckled lightly and ordered: "Pass on our military order, and each army will alternately cover in turn, and retreat back thirty miles!" ”

"Huh?" As soon as Ling Yun's retreat order came out, all the generals were stunned. They came to persuade Ling Yun to give the order to attack, but they didn't expect it, but they got the order to retreat thirty miles!
