146 The decisive battle outside the city of Zhoushui
In the early morning of January 3, directly north of the Zhoushui Walled City. Five phalanxes of 10,000 infantry, composed of chariots, stone spearmen, and archers, stood quietly on the plain at the foot of Beiling Mountain, with banners swaying with the wind. The plains in this area are too close to the mountains to have any arable land for the player, so it's a great place to slash in the open and barren area.
At this time, the plain was full of slaughter, waiting for the arrival of the Shanjung army.
The phalanx in the middle is the legion of the NPC chief Ji Zhi and the ministers of civil and military affairs, almost all of them are wearing bronze armor, sitting in dozens of chariots, and their swords are in their hands. It must be explained here that there is actually no difference between NPC Wenchen and Wuchen, but the work he is usually responsible for is civil and military, but these ministers are all proficient in the six arts, horseback riding, archery, and swordsmanship, and there is no problem in killing the enemy in battle.
Qin Xiaobai wore bronze armor and rode in the same chariot as the big chieftain Ji Zhi and Guo Kui. He didn't know why the chief had asked him to come up and ride with him, but he was safe when he came. In addition, there were many ministers, all sitting on chariots ready to fight.
A chariot can carry three armor soldiers, Ji Zhi stands in the middle to drive the chariot, and Qin Xiaobai and Guo Kui fight with halberds on both sides.
Guo Kui is old and strong, wearing armor and majestic. He danced the halberd, and laughed at Qin Xiaobai in a hoarse voice: "Don't be nervous about the little white army, there are only tens of thousands of mountains to be afraid of." I think that the old man followed King Yan to conquer Shanjung, and hundreds of thousands of troops fought against him. ”
Guo Kui is the teacher of the Great Chief, and he does not scruple when he speaks.
Qin Xiaobai smiled, he was a little restrained, but he was not nervous because he was going to go to war soon, but he was a little in awe of the two historical-level NPC heroes beside him. can ride in the same chariot with Ji Zhi and Guo Kui. Even the game made him feel extraordinarily excited.
Ji Zhi looked at Qin Xiaobai and asked with a smile: "Jun Sima, do you know why Gu asked you to ride in the same car?" ”
Qin Xiaobai smiled: "I don't know." ”
Ji Zhi sighed: "Yesterday, Gu and the teacher discussed all night, and among the thirty-two line Simas, you are the only one who has not disappointed Gu, so you and Gu are in the same car." The other twenty-eight are the Commanders. Retreating, making Gu very disappointed. In this battle, Lone sent many soldiers to fight, spending a huge amount of food and salary, just to be able to select the best generals from among them and open up territory for Lone in the future. But now, it's hard to find. ”
Qin Xiaobai was a little embarrassed, he naturally knew why Ji Zhi sighed. Because last night, they were not waiting for the Shanrong army, but four player legions who "retreated" back to Zhoushuidi. The collective retreat of the player's legion. Although it was not his decision alone, it had a lot to do with him. If he hadn't made a move, the Legion of Players wouldn't have retreated so cleanly.
Ji Zhi did not punish the four legions, but only asked them to immediately return to the garrison to rest and recuperate, and prepare for another battle with the Shanjung army today. Now, the total strength of the Zhoushui tribe is as high as 95,000, and the big chief personally leads the army to fight. There is little chance of defeat. As for the fact that after this battle, I am afraid that the matter of the unauthorized withdrawal of troops by Zhongxing Sima will still have to be settled.
Guo Kui also smiled: "The great chief's thirst for talent can be said to be not a little worse than that of Zhou Gong." The little white army Sima is talented, and he is exactly the person the big chief is asking for. ”
Qin Xiaobai smiled, thought for a while, and said: "In fact, there are also generals and handsome generals among the thirty-two line horses, but the line horses cherish the lives of the soldiers, so they are not willing to fight hard with Shan Rong. In the final analysis, the main reason for the previous defeat in this battle was because my Zhoushui tribe was very weak. Food, military expenses, tools, and medicine could not be supplied, horses were scarce, and armor was scarce, otherwise as long as any of the Sima went to war, it would be enough to wipe out the army of Shanjung. Therefore, it is not that one will be hard to find, but that there will be too many talents. ”
Guo Kui's eyes lit up, and he stroked his beard and said, "Xiaobai's words are good, the old man loves to listen!" There is no shortage of generals in my Yan country, what is lacking is the great talent of governing the country, and governing the country cannot be reversed with just a few generals. There is a Ming Jun on it. There are important ministers of the auxiliary country, why worry about my Yan country not prospering?! ”
Ji Zhi laughed and said: "Governing the country is a matter of the father and the prince, and it has nothing to do with Lone, Lone only protects the peace of my Yan Kingdom and is not disturbed by the mountains." Never mind. The twenty-eight linemen. Lone will not be pursued. After this battle, the border of my Yan country can also rest and recuperate for a while. ”
Guo Kui smiled.
Qin Xiaobai also smiled. The current position of the monarch has nothing to do with the position of the great chieftain. But it's hard to say what will happen in the future.
They didn't wait long.
The army of Shanjung finally came out of the mountains. Under the leadership of the chieftain of the Shanrong army, tens of thousands of Shanjung came to the plain north of Zhoushui City. The Shanjung army was overjoyed to see that Zhou Shui's army was finally willing to fight head-on in the plain area. However, they were still taken aback to see that Zhou Shui's army was so numerous.
Shan Rong sent a Shan Rong to ask, is your army fighting according to the etiquette of the Zhou Dynasty?
Ji Zhi replied, yes.
Qin Xiaobai sweated wildly, and he only learned today that it turned out that the Shanrong war also talked about the etiquette of the Zhou Dynasty.
Ji Zhi did not attack immediately, but allowed the army of Shanjung to set up a position in an open area of the plain - this was not because of benevolence and etiquette, but mainly because the chariot charge had to be large enough, and if it was fought in a narrow place, it would not be conducive to the chariot charging back and forth. Chariots will never be driven into the mountains to fight, and are only suitable for driving on the plains. The two armies were two miles apart from each other on the battlefield, and the two sides set up their positions, and the armies of both sides blew bull horns and beat drums.
"Rush!"
Rumble!
Ji Zhi drove the chariot and roared angrily, urging the horse forward. The Great Chief took the lead in the car and took the lead in the charge.
Consisting of five combat vehicles in the vanguard. A total of twenty-five chariots formed a vanguard regiment, and the entire army of 50,000 men charged towards the mountain at the same time. At the same time, the Shanrong army also charged at the Zhoushui tribe.
Jin Ge Iron Horse, swallowing like a tiger.
Many players watched the battle with bated breath on the head of Zhou Shuicheng from afar, and this battle completely relied on the male soldiers of both sides to fight it out, and there was no fancy to speak of.
An army of seventy or eighty thousand NPC soldiers collided together. The chariot group was invincible, and wherever it passed, it was like a giant ship running over, and the core of the Shanjung Legion was smashed into pieces.
Qin Xiaobai stood on the violently bumpy chariot, firmly grasping the halberd, listening to the roar of the surrounding battlefield. It was almost impossible to wield the heavy weapon in his hand. He didn't have much personal experience of charging with cold weapons in a large group like this, and as for charging at the forefront in a chariot, this was the first time.
He occasionally looked to the side, and the great chieftain Ji Zhi calmly pulled the reins and drove the chariot forward. Guo Kui energetically danced the halberd, blocking all the arrows that came from the ground, occasionally stabbing a few times, and easily picking up the mountains that were blocking the chariot. This old man is old. But Qin Xiaobai couldn't help but admire him, and the spirit of a historical-level hero was really not ordinary; He was not used to using the halberd, so he simply threw away the halberd, replaced it with a bronze shield and a bronze sword, and quickly slashed the mountains around the chariot. On such a battlefield, a person is without any power. There were only hordes of soldiers, chariots. to have terrible destructive power.
At the head of Zhoushui City, the players watching the battle burst into a burst of cheers. They rushed down the city in excitement, opened the city gates in disregard of the military order, and slaughtered the battlefield. To be able to participate in such a large-scale war, even if you die in battle, it is worth it.
I don't know how long it took, Qin Xiaobai was sweating profusely and sat in the chariot tiredly. His bronze sword and shield have been used hundreds of times, and they have long been useless, and it is difficult to even lift his arms, but fortunately, he has not hurt much health. I felt the sounds around me gradually stop. The chariot gradually stopped, and the big chief Ji Zhi and Guo Kui were in good spirits, laughing, obviously very proud of the battle just now.
Qin Xiaobai rested for a moment, regained his strength, stood up again, and watched the entire battlefield.
The numerous chariots slowly turned around, but they did not run again, and the complete Shanjung army could no longer be seen on the entire battlefield. It's all scattered and escaping hills. There is no longer any need to charge.
There are also many players who are excitedly chasing the remnants of the mountain army and capturing prisoners.
Qin Xiaobai was a little surprised, finished fighting?
Although he didn't know how much time had passed, it was true that the entire war had only been fought for one round.
Because the chariot only charged once, this was a round on the battlefield that relied on chariots in ancient times.
One round. The battle ended.
All that's left is to pick up the pieces. It's up to the legions to do that.
Not long after, the campaign was completely over. The mountain kills and kills, and the captives are captured.
Lord Sima quickly came to the chariot where the Great Chief was located, and said with great joy: "Report, Great Chief, our army has won a great victory!" Annihilated more than 10,000 Shanjung and captured tens of thousands of Shanjung wounded. One of the chiefs of the Shanjung army was also captured by our army. ”
Troops, arms, killed, wounded.
Vehicles: 25, 7, 18.
Generals: 50, 3, 21.
Bronze: 50, 17, 33.
Archers: 10000, 1613,
Enemy troops, killed, captured, missing.
Shan Rong Collar: 25, 7, 13, 5.
Shanjung soldiers: 27000, 13210, Ji Zhi couldn't help but be overjoyed when he learned that he had captured an important prisoner. Immediately sent someone to bring the chief of Shanjung to him. The chief of the mountain was dressed in rags and exhausted, and knocked on Ji Zhi.
Ji Zhi hurriedly smiled and said: "Chief, please get up, your army only has more than 20,000 people, but you dare to fight with my dozens of chariots and 50,000 troops, and I admire the chief's courage very much." ”
Chief Shanjung smiled bitterly: "Our army has run out of food, has not eaten for a day and night, there is no way to retreat, no matter whether it wins or loses, this battle must be fought, if you win, there may be a way to live." By the grace of the Great Chieftain not to kill, I am willing to lead the remnants of the army to surrender. ”
Only then did Ji Zhi understand that the Shanrong army had no food.
It's all the food that is causing the trouble.
The Shanjung invaded on a large scale in order to grab food. attacked his Zhoushui City, but the army was defeated in an instant, and the food was exhausted.
He smiled lightly after a while: "Although the chief is a captive, he is still treated as a guest. Come, be polite, and send them to the walled city. The rest of the captives were held separately outside the city. ”
"Yes!"
Sima immediately carried out the order.
