Chapter 276: Decisive Battle (II)
Ye Xuanyuan brought an army of 150,000 this time, which was almost equal to three-quarters of all combat strength.
The 150,000 soldiers were divided into two routes, one led by Ning Ge.
The Cangjiang River Valley, where Di Yue's army was located, was surrounded by tall mountains on one bank and flattened terrain on the other.
The accumulation is fan-shaped, and the area of the upper and lower tours gradually decreases from the mountain pass.
And Ning Ge led an army of 50,000 to cross directly from the south bank of the Yangtze River to the north, and piled up the ground in the upper reaches.
Then march eastward, once the battle starts, the army led by Ning Ge has no way out.
It can be said that it is a ruin, and only in such a situation is it possible to win more with less.
As for Ye Xuanyuan's side, after knowing the ambush set up by Huang Jiao Zhong, he had to crack them one by one.
Because of the advantages of terrain and timing, Ye Xuanyuan did not dare to take it lightly.
There are traps at the entrance and exit of the valley, and once Ye Xuanyuan enters the valley, it may be a turtle in an urn. They're the turtles.
But if they don't enter, they won't have anything to lose.
This mountain pass, of course, has to be left to Di Yue's army, how can they occupy it?
The army led by Ning Ge crossed the Cangjiang River in its entirety and began to quietly move towards the river beach at the mouth of the valley.
Ye Xuanyuan was unhurried, and began to sit on the horse and laugh and talk with his subordinates.
Ye Xuanyuan's behavior completely fell into the eyes of Huang Jiazhong.
In fact, the Yellow Clamp Bell only set up mechanisms on both sides of the valley, but. The army however. There was no ambush on both sides. Because he understands. While passing through the valley. The main general usually sent people to explore the mountains on both sides of the strait. Isn't it just waiting to be discovered?
The mechanism it is set up. It's not as simple as it seems. The boulder placed on the top of the cliff was just to make Ye Xuanyuan think that the mechanism had been eliminated.
Then go in boldly.
That's when the show really begins.
After a quarter of an hour, Wang Qi rode back to Ye Hangyuan's side.
"Report to the general, there are boulders on the cliffs on both sides, and there are no ambushes." Wang Qi reported.
Ye Xuanyuan lowered his eyes and thought for a moment: "Pass the order, don't go deep into the valley to kill the enemy later." ”
"Yes." The men should come.
It was Ning Ge who really fought against the water, and Di Yue knew that they still had a way to go.
That is to exit the valley.
If Huang Jiazhong didn't tell Moran about this matter, then Mo Lan would choose to avoid the edge for the time being when Moran didn't know the specific number of troops led by Ning Ge.
But it's a pity that Moran will have doubts when he sees that the general is not Ye Xuanyuan.
But for fear that they will attack, they will also send people to defend the mountain pass or kill it directly.
That's the only way for them to survive.
If Moran knew, as long as Ye Xuanyuan didn't move, the Yellow Clamp Bell wouldn't move.
Moran is also able to fight for a chance to survive, at least there is an army of 100,000 Huang Jia Zhong outside the valley.
As for why I still can't go deeper, I'm afraid that Huang Jia Zhong will even sell his teammates.
……
"Enemy attack! Enemy attack! ”
Moran had been in the tent preparing his next plan. But suddenly there was a commotion outside.
Moran immediately put down the map in his hand and ran out.
"What's going on?!" Moran roared.
When the soldiers saw Moran coming out, they immediately arrived: "General, there is the army of the Chen State, coming down from the west. It's menacing. ”
Moran immediately pulled out his knife: "Find out the specific number of people!" An enemy attack is so chaotic, do you teach you all in vain on weekdays?! ”
"It's Ye Xuanyuan?" Moran continued to ask.
"No, it's Ning Ge."
For people who are often on the battlefield, the names of Ye Xuanyuan, Ning Ge, Yishuang, and Li He are all thunderous.
People are also recognizable at a glance.
"Ning Ge?" Moran's heart sank suddenly.
Ye Xuanyuan, this is going to fight to the death. Ning Ge is now putting himself and the army to death, and what he wants is to live.
And in the understanding of Di Yue's army, they can also withdraw from the valley. In morale has already lost a bit.
Coupled with the plan of the Yellow Clamp Bell, Di Yue's soldiers did not know.
Moran agreed in the first place because it was in the original plan. Di Yue's army. It is the case that I do not get caught on both sides. But now the reality is beyond what was originally planned.
Brother Ning's army was sharp. Confronting it head-on is an extremely irrational choice.
Now my hope is that the yellow clip clock can drag Ye Xuanyuan. And his side directly exited the valley.
Let Ye Xuanyuan be attacked from both sides, and he can also fight for a glimmer of life. Huang Jiazhong's assassination plan, Moran is clear.
As long as Ye Xuanyuan dies, the Chen army will be defeated.
Now he has an army of 150,000 under his command, and he only needs to let 50,000 people defend Ningge. And the 100,000 army directly attacked out, and there was a seventy percent chance that Ye Xuanyuan would be defeated.
The other thirty percent of the accident appeared on Ye Xuanyuan himself.
Having made up his mind, Moran directly asked his lieutenant general to lead 50,000 people to fight against Ning Ge.
And he himself led the army and went out of the valley.
Does Ye Xuanyuan want to attack them on both sides? I was afraid that Huang Jia Zhong would be ambushed, so I didn't dare to enter the valley.
When the time comes, as long as they deliberately lead their troops into the valley, the mechanism can still be used.
Block the valley and reflexively annihilate Ning Ge.
Moran and his men began to gallop out of the valley.
Wars are always wars and require large-scale engagements. No matter how good the preparations are made before the battle, when the armies of the two sides collide together, it is inevitable to fight.
It would be nice if there were wars in the world that could be won without a single soldier.
"They're out." Wang Qi's ears moved, and he said to Ye Xuanyuan.
Ye Xuanyuan naturally heard the movement from the valley.
"Prepare for battle!"
……
When Ye Xuanyuan and Moran's army began to fight, Huang Jiazhong still didn't understand why Moran didn't follow the plan and went straight out of the valley.
"Are you going to go now?" Yuan Fang asked beside Huang Jiazhong.
Huang Jiazhong was about to rush out, but Yuan Fang's question stopped him.
Is it time to go out now? If Ye Xuanyuan entered the valley and then went out, wouldn't it be a better time?
"Wait a minute." Huang Jiao Zhong raised his hand.
Where he didn't see it, the corners of Yuan Fang's mouth hooked.
A moment later than the Yellow Clamp Bell, Di Yue's army would lose a few more points. In the final analysis, the countries of the south are still Di Yue's.
It is impossible for Beiqi's army to stay in Di Yue for the rest of his life.
And the behavior of the yellow clip clock is bound to arouse Moran's disgust. The cooperation between Di Yue and Beiqi broke down, but it just needed a fire.
The more Moran hits, the heavier his heart becomes, what is the Yellow Clip Clock doing? The combat effectiveness of Ye Xuanyuan's army was much greater than he imagined.
Ning Ge's side was even more overwhelming, and he was about to lose it. Now it's neither retreat nor advance.
At this moment, Huang Jiazhong finally chose to make a move. Directly from the two wings surrounded the leaf hanging abyss.
"Go to the bitterness, Ye Xuanyuan will ...... Forehead ......"
"General!"
Huang Jia Zhong looked at the long sword inserted into his heart fiercely, his face full of disbelief.
He slowly raised his head and looked at Yuan Fang who was holding the sword in shock.
"You...... You...... Burst! A mouthful of blood spurted out of the mouth of the yellow clip bell.
Yuan Fang snorted and pulled out his sword vigorously.
Blood splashed instantly, spilling on Yuan Fang's face, fishy sweet and warm.
"You should have killed me instead of leaving me behind." Yuan Fang said coldly.
Yuan Fang's hatred for Huang Jia Zhong is all accumulated over time. It was the yellow clip clock that made him such a person who kills people without blinking.
"Go to the bitterness! You white-eyed wolf! Huang Jiazhong's soldiers yelled, eager to eat Yuan Fang.
Yuan Fang ignored the soldier, but stared at Huang Jiazhong's eyes: "You said, once it will be completed, ten thousand bones will wither." It was you who said that if you want to build merit, you can only exchange the enemy's head. It is you who said that when necessary, you only need to consider your own interests, there is no permanent classmate, only eternal interests.
Huang Jia Zhong, you shouldn't want to touch my son-in-law. ”
Huang Jiazhong's consciousness had begun to blur, and he knelt on the ground with a snap.
What could be more demoralizing than the death of a manager?
Before the battle even began, the boss was dead.
"Kill him for me!" Vice Admiral Huang Jiazhong was already on the verge of going berserk and ordered.
At this moment, a burst of war drums remembered. Chen Guo's war song sounded on all sides.
"There are ambushes! And ambushes! The soldiers of Beiqi and Di Yue were terrified.
Moran was even more shocked, where did Ye Xuanyuan get the army? Where are all the reinforcements? Could it be just a bluff?
But when I looked up, there were dense soldiers of the Chen State. Definitely not a bluff!
Zhao Li stood on top of the cliff and waved his hand at Ye Xuanyuan below.
These soldiers are naturally from his Chen State.
The people recruited in the southern regions such as Diancheng and Tengcheng during the war can finally come in handy.
Although this time it may just be to pull them out to scare people, but it is enough to scare people.
The corners of Ye Xuanyuan's mouth hooked a smile: "It's really timely." ”
The general of the Northern Enlightenment is dead, and the soldiers have the idea of retreating.
Some of those at the back have become deserters.
"Don't quit! No refund! Violators will be killed! "They didn't start fighting at all, and the group actually started to get timid.
The adjutant knew that the battle had already been lost.
"General Zhao, aren't we going down to fight?" A recruit asked Zhao Lidao.
Zhao Li didn't want to go down, Ning Ge, Fugui, Wang Qi and they fought in front.
What is it standing here by yourself?
"Soldiers! Are you willing to fight for Chen Guo?! Zhao Li turned around and asked loudly.
"Yes!" The sound of neatness resounded through the valley, and the hearts of the righteous people were upright.
"This battle!"
"Victory! Win! Win! ”
"That's good! Then kill me! The battle drums up! Zhao Li laughed and rushed down the mountain with people.
Seeing this, the soldiers of Chen Guo who were fighting below greatly increased their confidence.
For a moment, the soldiers of the Chen State were unstoppable.
The scattered Beiqi army was soon strangled by Chen Guo's recruits and veterans, and was unable to form an army.
Yuan Fang even took the life of the generals of the Northern Qi Dynasty. The eyes are fierce and intimidating.
Ye Xuanyuan didn't pay attention to Yuan Fang's side anymore, but directly focused on Mo Lan's side.
Moran watched as the people around him fell one by one, and the army of 150,000 accounted for half of all northern military strength.
In previous battles, Di Yue had already suffered heavy losses.
If the whole army is wiped out this time, then Di Yue will ......
Moran's eyes turned red and he roared.
The surrounding soldiers were also affected by Moran and fought to the death.
There is a faint trend of counter-killing.
"Moran! Surrender! As long as you descend, I will let you live! Ye Xuanyuan's voice contained internal force and echoed in everyone's ears.
Di Yue's soldiers also heard it, Ye Xuanyuan actually asked them to surrender, they had a chance to live?
Ye Xuanyuan has always been the same when he speaks, he said that if they let them live, then they will definitely be.
Mo Lan suddenly laughed, Ye Xuanyuan was really treacherous. For the army, which had one more way to live, morale was violently suppressed.
They don't think about killing one to get back to their capital, killing two is considered to be earned. Rather, I thought that as long as the general surrendered, we would be able to live.
Moran looked at the soldiers around him who were staring at him with tears in their eyes. They are young, and their lives are just beginning.
The valley was almost filled with corpses, and they should have had their own stories.
The army has already given birth to a surrender heart, and if it does not surrender itself, it will not be victorious.
Of Moran's 150,000 troops, less than half are still left.
In the past few decades of Moran's life, there has never been a word for descent.
But now...... Huang Jiazhong died, the army's spirit collapsed, and he lost...... Already lost.
"Moran! You fall! Still not falling! You only have this one chance! If you don't surrender, your Diyue army will be wiped out! I'm going to kill everybody.
Then they cut off their heads and hung them on thousands. Or take their heads, attack Di Yue, and let their relatives see ......"
"We surrender!!" Moran fell to his knees with a pop, hanging his head and shouting.
He knew that his head could only be kept low like this for the rest of his life.
Di Yue's biggest failure was that he chose to cooperate with Beiqi.
Success also starts in the north, and defeat also starts in the north. If it weren't for Beiqi, Di Yue would not have come to this point.
Di Yue surrendered, and Beiqi also wanted to surrender. But since they came, how could Ye Xuanyuan let them go back again?
Buried in Di Yue is good.
The entire 100,000-strong army of Beiqi was completely annihilated.
Di Yue's soldiers were glad that Moran had landed, otherwise they would have been the ones who had fallen there.
Chen Guo, big victory.
This battle is known as the decisive battle of Cangjiang by the world.
After the decisive battle of Cangjiang, a hundred years of tranquility in the south of Chen State were laid.
King Di Yue signed an alliance with Chen Guo in exchange for Di Yue's remaining 70,000 troops from Ye Xuanyuan, including Mo Lan.
From this point on, the south was truly settled.
On the third day of Moran's return to Diyue, he killed himself in Cangjiang. It makes the world sigh.
Subrow Moran. The people had mixed reviews of him, and some said that he protected Di Yue's lifeline.
Some say that he betrayed the country to seek glory, which was a shame for Di Yue.
It doesn't matter, all the infamy is left to him alone. It is enough for those who survive to enjoy their lives.
Ye Xuanyuan told him that within a hundred years, if Di Yue did not take the initiative to attack, then Chen Guo would be willing to trade with Di Yue for generations and share prosperity.
Ye Xuanyuan said that all this was exchanged for him. If he didn't surrender at that time, Ye Xuanyuan would not only kill him directly, but also directly kill Di Yue with a desperate future.
In fact, Moran knew that Ye Xuanyuan was not joking. He just chose the best path possible.
If it weren't for the urgency of the north, Ye Xuanyuan would not have given himself a chance to surrender.
After the baptism of war, the people naturally love peace. Di Yue opposed the signing of the covenant surprisingly rarely.
Since then, the Southern Campaign has come to an end.
