Chapter 423: Finale Three

Xie Ming nodded and said, "Now if you want to break the deadlock, you must take the initiative, the west and east roads must be combined, and the plan in charge of us will be disrupted, but there are tens of millions of soldiers in the army, and you shouldn't take risks." ”

Sister Yan said, " Although our Chu army is brave, but the real elite soldiers are only as long as the original border army and the border defenders, and the armies of other states and states, lack of experience, and are not considered the real elite, so once we lose our current advantages, we will lack stamina, this seat personally leads the army, the military heart does not have to worry, the west and east roads are still separated by Xicheng and Mingcheng, if these two cities are taken, the two sides of the battle line are connected, even if you don't take the Qianmen Pass, you can slowly surround the past from the side, but the speed should be full, and the march should be more careful, if in this process, the Qianmen Pass sends troops to help, then we can have the opportunity to break through the Qianmen Pass。 ”

Long Teng stood up and said, "What the emperor said makes sense, his subordinates are willing to ask for battle, and lead the troops to attack Xi and Ming Ercheng." ”

Sister Yan said, "Our ultimate goal is Qianmen Pass, only if I go, they can send troops for me in exchange for an exciting victory, so General Long still goes to guard Qianmen Pass." ”

Old General Qin persuaded, "We know that the Emperor is worried about our process, but if something happens to the Emperor, what a big blow it will have to the morale of the army? ”

My sister can't beat them in the end.

The generals deliberated for a long time and decided to break through from three places.

The western army was divided into three routes, the strongest two roads went to attack the two weaker places of the Shang State, and then sent the last state army to attack Xicheng and Mingcheng, which were the strongest in combat, cutting off their support road, and after the other two roads were successful, they went to aid the last road.

Isolate Qianmen Pass, and then it depends on how Qianmen Pass is chosen, if they choose to go out, then the East Road army will immediately attack Qianmen Pass.

The Jin army is about to attack the Shang State, and the Chu State cannot fall behind the Jin State, and the Chu State must take the capital of the Shang State.

After making a plan, it was to point out the troops, and after Xie Ming carefully deployed, the generals marched with the army.

Xie Ming personally led the army to personally command the west, and several veteran generals guarded the Qianmen Pass, waiting for the opportunity.

Sister Yan was arranged in the strongest Xiyi Road, she is now like a mascot, the kind that must not have an accident, everyone does not think that this is the general's favoritism, because the emperor is too adventurous, the victory over the Jin State is because the Jin army's combat effectiveness is not strong, and it is a change of generals, so the Chu army is full of courage and hits Yuyang Pass, and now it can't be like that for the Shang State.

Sister Yan took Zhang Ling and others to the Xiyi Road army, and 120,000 elite soldiers attacked Fancheng.

I thought it was a matter of getting caught, but who knew that Shangguo did not play cards according to common sense.

It turned out that the Empress of Shang had already sent Ning Ming to Cui Jie's original Pyeongchang military camp.

In order to stop the pace of the Chu army, Ning Ming did not hesitate to mobilize the remaining Pyeongchang army to stop the Chu army.

The Chu army encountered desperate resistance in Fancheng, and the 100,000 Pingchang army mobilized by Ning Ming took the opportunity to surround the Chu army.

Sister Yan did not expect that at this pass where the Jin army was about to move, the Shang State not only did not strengthen the deployment between the Jin and Shang countries, but instead transferred troops to the west.

This time it was everyone who miscalculated.

The consequence of the miscalculation was that the 120,000 Chu army was flanked by the Pingchang army and He Fancheng's army.

Sister Yan is not a highly mobile cavalry, and it is not easy to retreat.

When the Shang army found that the emperor of Chu was among the Chu army, their fighting spirit became even more high.

Ning Ming didn't expect to encounter a big fish in a deployment.

The army of the West Road was surrounded.

The second and third roads had already begun to fight, and the Chu army under the Qianmen Pass could not leave without permission.

Sister Yan and others led the army to fight and retreat, relying on the terrain to deal with the merchant army.

The Shang State did not have a great deal of confidence in eating the Chu army directly along the way, in that case, the Shang State's losses would be too great, and the rest of the day would be even more difficult.

After three days of fighting, Ning Ming received the military information and immediately decided that he wanted to transfer another 50,000 Pyeongchang troops and must take down Sister Xie.

As long as the battle is won, the Chu army will definitely lose its sharpness, and when the time comes, the west of the Shang army and the Qianmen Pass will be connected, and it will not be so simple for the Chu State to crush all the way.

Xie Ming received the news that Sister Yan was besieged in the West Second Road, and he almost couldn't sit still, and now all parties are entangled, and the Chu army can't free up manpower to support Sister Yan, so he can only wait for the West Second Road to break through successfully before he can free up his hands to support.

"I didn't expect that this time I missed the determination of the Shang State, they would rather give the Jin State a loophole than stop my Da Chu's offensive, he didn't want to think about it, the 150,000 Pyeongchang army can block the Jin State for a few days, and now the Jin State is afraid that the big teeth will be laughed off. ”

Xie Chang said, "Then what should we do, can my aunt support her? We have to find a way to support her." ”

"I'm afraid not now, all parties are entangled to the death, as long as the Chu army has the slightest intention of retreating, it will be bitten by the merchant army, and I don't know who it will be when the time comes. ”

"What about my aunt? Shang Guo will definitely try his best to deal with his aunt, there is a huge disparity in strength, and my aunt has been able to resist for a few days. ”

"I sent a message to Tianshen and asked him to take the 100,000 Binzhou troops escorting grain and grass in the rear to rescue the emperor. ”

Xie Chang hurriedly said, "Can you wait for your aunt?" Father, do you want to find a way, do you watch your aunt in danger?"

Xie Ming said sharply, "She is not only your aunt, but also the commander of the first army, it is common to encounter danger, as the commander-in-chief, I must consider the overall situation, if I deploy in chaos now, it will make Chu lose the current good situation, in this way, even if I save your aunt, she will not spare me." ”

"That's all for later, even if she can't spare us and blame us, it's better than not having her anymore. ”

The other soldiers were silent, the situation in the army was changing rapidly, who knew that the safest West Road had become a fire pit in a blink of an eye, and no one could be foolproof in the midst of the war.

Xie Ming turned his back to everyone and said sharply, "Enough, you go down, intensify the attack tonight, within three days, you must break Qingcheng, and then support Fancheng and Mingcheng." ”

Xie Chang didn't dare to say more, so he could only raise his knife to give orders.

The sooner you capture Qingcheng, the sooner you can go to the rescue of your aunt.

When the Qianmen Pass guard learned the news that the imperial division of the Chu State was besieged by the Pyeongchang army, he was overjoyed, and the Chu army was like a bamboo, and now he finally counterattacked them.

The Chu army under the Qianmen Pass was eyeing the tiger, but as long as the east and west were connected in a line, the Chu army would not dare to go deep alone, and could only fight a protracted war with the Shang State, which still had an advantage on the home field of the Shang State.

The guard of Qianmen Pass quietly sent people, with 100,000 defenders, from the small road, around Mingcheng to support the Mingcheng defenders, if the Chu army west of the three roads, two of the road failed, then the other road is meaningless.

As long as Qianmen Pass holds on to the victory of the two roads and Shang Jun returns to help, then the abacus of the Chu State will all fail.

The Pingchang army and the Fan Cheng army surrounded Sister Yan for five days, they thought that the Emperor of Chu was just a prestige and a blessing, and had no military mind, but who knew that they were surrounded by Sister Yan for five days, and the two armies had no substantive contact, and they always retreated at the touch of a button.

Tired on both sides.

Shang relied on the reinforcements to arrive immediately, intending to encircle the Chu army.

Sister Yan was also forced into a corner by them, and she couldn't escape.

Zhang Ling looked at the more and more merchant soldiers around him, a little scared, a little excited, and the big husband died in the country.

Sister Yan said to everyone, "The armies from all walks of life can't send men and horses to support, we can only wait for the grain army, now we have to rely on ourselves, what you have to do is to kill the enemy and survive, understand?"

The soldiers shouted, "Understood!"

The Shang army was a little shocked when he thought that the morale of the Chu army was still so high.

In the end, the 200,000 merchant army and the 120,000 Chu army fought a decisive battle in the field of Fancheng, and the battle lasted for two days and two nights.

The Chu army was well-trained and well-coordinated, and it actually stopped wave after wave of attacks by the Shang army.

Under the huge disparity in strength, the casualties of the two armies were unexpectedly equal, with each losing 40,000 people.

The Shang army did not dare to gamble on such a big loss, after all, the Shang State was on the defensive side, and it had to guard against the great enemy of the Jin State.

So prepare to surround the Chu army, prevent the Chu army from breaking through, and wait for the arrival of the 50,000 Pingchang army.

Although Sister Yan's martial arts are strong, she can't play much role in the battle of tens of thousands of troops, she can only fight desperately, and she is also injured.

Zhang Ling's students are now red, and they have injuries of all sizes.

In the follow-up war, the Chu army became more and more unable to support it, and after the reinforcements of the Pyeongchang army arrived, the Shang State did not care about it, and it was necessary to eat the Chu army.

Sister Yan couldn't remember how many people she had killed, she only knew that her subordinates couldn't listen.

The pain in her body was numb, and it turned out that her left arm was shot by a cold arrow, and the blood had already coagulated.

No matter how difficult it was for Zhang Ling and others to support, Sister Yan gritted her teeth and persevered.

It's just that the Chu army fell one by one, and the rest also gathered around Sister Yan, wanting to do their best to protect her.

Sister Yan and Zhang Ling were back to back, mainly Sister Yan helped Zhang Ling, Zhang Ling was brought to the battlefield by her, and he couldn't die.

Just when there were less than 30,000 Chu troops left, everyone was about to despair.

There was dust and smoke in the distance, and it turned out to be the arrival of reinforcements from the Chu State.

Tianshen took reinforcements and saw his sister's face covered in blood from a distance, and his heart ached.

200,000 merchant troops plus 50,000 reinforcements, in the death battle, even lost nearly 100,000, the Chu army was super combative.

The 100,000 troops led by Tianshen went straight into the battlefield and tore a gap.

Seeing that they consciously separated the two armies, Sister Yan asked everyone to fight and retreat.

Zhang Ling, who was about to be unconscious, followed the remnants of the army and retreated to the edge of the battlefield.

How could those people let her go, and each desperately tried to intercept her.

Under the chaos, Sister Yan was hit by another arrow.

Reluctantly withdrew from the center of the battlefield and put Zhang Ling down.

Zhang Lingmo was vague, and only saw those stubborn eyes, if he could not die, he would definitely follow her forever.

The Battle of Fancheng lasted for twelve days, from the Chu army attacking Fancheng, to the Chu army being surrounded, then the Shang army supporting, to the arrival of Chu reinforcements, and finally the remaining 150,000 merchant troops withdrew to Fancheng.

The emperor of the Chu State, Xie Sister Yan, was seriously injured and unconscious.

The emperor led 100,000 Binzhou troops and 30,000 remnants led by Emperor Xie Jieyan, and Chen soldiers were outside Fancheng.

Although the Chu army lost this battle, but under the disadvantage of the Chu army, 90,000 in exchange for 100,000 Shang troops is already very remarkable, and furthermore, in the long run, the Shang State is still at a disadvantage, because the Jin State is already ready to move.
