Compared with the soldiers' eagerness to fight, the generals were very cautious, no matter which one of the two sides, had never commanded so many soldiers and horses and fought such a big battle. Ah Die Guangyan and Wu Chongyin stood on the tower, with a miniature sand table at hand. A soldier named Dou Yi, who graduated from the first phase of martial arts, reported that he had joined the army:

"Judging from the current observation and intelligence, the enemy army has invested 30,000 troops on the battlefield and has about 3,000 people in the camp, and if the information provided by Governor Li of Shannan is accurate, at least 17,000 Huaixi thief troops are not in our control, which is likely to include the Huaixi elite mule cavalry who raided the gate of our army camp two days ago. According to the sand table deduction of Huaixi's tactical habits, it is believed that the main goal of the nearly 20,000 thief army should be to take advantage of our army's big outing, attack our army's camp, disturb our army's morale, and then enter from the tail of our army, flank the front and rear, and defeat our army in one fell swoop. The last general thought that their next goal was to take advantage of the strong mobility and good endurance of the mule cavalry army to raid Dongdugi after defeating our army, in order to shake the Kanto region and shake the imperial court's determination to use troops. ”

This Dou Yi was one of the three people who were favored by Li Yu in the martial arts deduction before the Lutouguan War, and these three people were also known as the "Three Heroes", but Li Deyu was not willing to be a military general now. This deduction was the conclusion reached by Li Deyu and Dou Yida after they got up early in the morning and deduced. The two reported separately to Adieguang Yan Wu Chongyin and Li Chun, and after listening to Li Deyu's report, Li Chun was not annoyed by Huaixi's bold and reckless behavior, but said excitedly:

"If that's the case, it'll be enough for them to drink a pot."

"I'm sure they'll be able to drink a pot."

Dong Chongzhen, who had done another tactical deduction, threw away the white grass stalk in his hand, pointed to a few circles drawn on the ground and said to Wu Yuanqing, Zhang Boliang and others. Wu Yuanqing and Zhang Boliang both nodded in agreement, but said with regret:

"Although the plan is good, I don't know how many officers and soldiers there are at the moment."

The large array of the official army is indeed thick, and the same paradoxical as the Huaixi Army is the dense battle flags, so that you can't see through the reality at a glance. Although the Huaixi army was arrogant, it did not dare to fight a battle to lose money. Dong Chongzhi said:

"According to the reports of Tanma these days, it seems that there are only a little more than 40,000 men and horses in the official army. The more people he played, the better it was for our army's plans. The fewer people he played, the better it would be for our army. Isn't the magic of transporting troops in a 'momentum'? It's just that you should be cautious in this battle, and you might as well not start the battle when it starts, and send cavalry to attack the enemy formation, observe the number of officers and soldiers, and then make a decision. ”

As is customary, the two sides began a psychological warfare confrontation before the war. Unlike in the past, when soldiers with loud voices were only sent to scold the formation, in the midst of foul language, the education of the officers and soldiers appeared in the army.

"Brothers of the Huaixi Army, please think about it. You are all good citizens who farm at home, but who made you unable to farm and have to become soldiers? ”

"I have heard that you are not allowed to talk to each other on the road during the day, and you are not allowed to serve wine and entertain guests at night at home, are you willing to live such a happy life without knowing people? Brothers, take up arms, kill the traitors who oppress you, and return to the embrace of the Tang Dynasty. Your Majesty the Emperor of Benevolence believes in your loyal nature. Read the reward ??????"

"Whoever kills Wu Shaocheng, he will be named Cai Hou, and the reward will be 5,000 yuan. Those who killed Wu Yuanqing were sealed Huo Shanbo and rewarded 3,000 yuan. Those who killed Wu Shaoyang were given a reward of 2,000 yuan. The one who killed Wu Yuanji,?????? This one has been crossed and crossed, and someone has taken it?????? Kill Dong Chongqing, Zhang Boliang?????? Worship the captain of the light car, and reward a thousand yuan??????"

Hearing that Wu Yuanji was captured, the generals of the Huaixi Army, especially Dong Chongzhi, still "chuckled" in their hearts. So the Huaixi Army began to take care of this indoctrination to join the army. If the law at that time had clearly stipulated, he could have filed a lawsuit with the yamen against the tens of thousands of people in front of him for heinous personal attacks, slander, slander, and even threats to his life, but he still completed the preaching and bravely returned to his own position.

"You're doing a great job."

Wang Pei encouraged him and said,

"It's our turn."

There are many people on your side, so there is no reason to wait for the opponent to attack first. A small command flag was raised from the tower, which was a signal for Chen Xujun to attack. Unexpectedly, when Chen Xu's army moved, the Huaixi army also moved.

"Archers, out of line?????? Six arrows per person, put! ”

Dense black feathered arrows roared across the sky and fell into the Huaixi army's formation, which also rained sharp arrows. Unable to enjoy the spectacle, he noticed signs of movement of men and horses behind the hillside where the Huaixi Army was located. Another small flag was raised, and immediately two long black snakes pierced out of the official army formation, catching up with the Huaixi cavalry who had just come out of the Huaixi army formation from both wings, killing the other party by surprise.

The tentative offensive was over, and the officers and troops had a slight advantage in the first round. Both sides have a good idea of each other's strength, and Wu Yuanqing and other Huaixi generals have raised their assessment of the combat strength of the officers and troops by a notch, and they no longer take the initiative to attack, but the confidence of the officers and troops has increased exponentially. However, Adie Guangyan still sighed in his heart. I don't know where those 20,000 people in Huaixi are, otherwise, why are they so careful? Think about it, when the Huaixi army rushed into battle and suddenly found that it was a Mo knife hand in front of him, what kind of expression should it be!

If you don't come out, Lao Tzu will beat you out!

Thinking about it, Adie Guangyan gave the order for a second attack. Chen Xujun's second battalion went out of battle, and this time Xuanwu Army and Gao Xiayu's subordinates both sent out a 500 people, following Chen Xujun's flank and rear, advancing in a zigzag shape with the rumbling war drums.

The feather arrows of the Huaixi army shot on the wooden shield of the sword and shield hand, making a continuous dull sound, and the soldiers who followed the sword and shield hand raised the round shield on their heads, and there were still people screaming, covering their thighs or a certain part, and squatting on the ground. And the long crossbow of the official army also caused great damage to the Huaixi army.

"Chen Xu Jian'er, kill!"

This time, there is no longer any temptation, it is completely a real fight. The officers and soldiers came from different places, and the problem of uneven training and coordination was immediately exposed. Wang Pei's heart was dripping blood, Han Gongwu's heart was dripping blood, and the officers and soldiers who had not received orders were still fighting to the death. More and more Huaixi troops made up from the back row to the front row, and more and more officers and soldiers fell in front of the battle, but Adie Guangyan still did not give the order of Ming Jin, but ordered the flag to wave, and three more battalions made up for it, replacing the three battalions in front.
