Qingji took the letter and read it, and immediately felt relieved.

Zhongmu is now the base camp of the main force of the Jin army in the north.

It is conceivable that Zhisong in Jiangcheng could no longer parry, so he sent multiple messengers to ask for help from Zhao Ying, who was far away in Zhongmu.

Reinforcements?

How could Qingji tolerate the arrival of enemy reinforcements?

"Did any fish slip through the net?"

"Yes."

The little colonel replied curtly.

Actually, it's no wonder that they.

The coalition army besieged Jiangcheng this time, using the conventional tactics of encircling three and missing one, instead of encircling on all sides, and did not give the Jin people a way out.

In this era, there are still some rules to be paid attention to.

If there is a Li Shu in Jiangcheng who escapes, the coalition forces may not let him leave after a search......

"Let's go down."

"No!"

After the junior colonel left, Qingji looked around again, looked at the coalition generals with solemn faces present, and said slowly: "Second and third sons, the war on the front line of Chaoge and Handan has reached a stalemate. ”

"The coalition led by the Marquis of Qi was defeated, and they did not dare to fight easily. If Jiangcheng is in an emergency, no one expects that Zhao Ying will definitely send reinforcements to rescue Jiangcheng, so what can I do? ”

Hearing this, the coalition generals present couldn't help but talk to each other and whisper.

Zheng Bo Jisheng stood up and said to Qingji: "Marquis Wu, the widow is willing to lead the army to meet the reinforcements of the Jin people. Or can our army conquer Jiangcheng before the reinforcements of the Jin people come to Jiangcheng? ”

Qingji shook his head and said, "It's hard to say." ”

Can Qingji gamble?

No, you can't.

The current war situation is not critical to that extent, so why should Qingji take the risk?

In the final analysis, the initiative is still in the hands of Qingji!

Qing Ji immediately came to the edge of the screen with a sheepskin map hanging, glanced at it, and finally fixed his eyes on the place of "Yellow Father".

"The main force of the Jin army is stationed in Zhongmu, and if you want to send troops to help, you can go all the way to the west and cross Shaoshui. The first to bear the brunt is the 'Yellow Father'! ”

Qingji pointed to the "Yellow Father" on the sheepskin map, which was only more than 100 miles away from Jiangcheng, and said in a deep voice: "Now the cities along the Fenshui River have been captured by our coalition army, and Zhao Ying chose to send troops from Jinyang, and it is unlikely that he will go straight downstream. ”

"Therefore, only Father Huang is the only way for Zhao Ying's reinforcements!"

"Sun Wu."

"The minister is here!"

Sun Wu, as a national lieutenant, immediately stood up.

"The widow will hand over all the soldiers to you. In addition, Qin and Zheng, each with 200 chariots and 10,000 soldiers, you are the main general, Zihu is the deputy general, immediately rush to Huang's father, be sure to destroy the reinforcements of the Jin people, and succeed in the first battle! ”

"No!"

Sun Wu and Zihu immediately received their orders.

As the so-called one general is incompetent, exhausting the three armies!

For Sun Wu's ability to govern the army and fight wars, how could Qingji not believe it?

The military soldiers of Wu State were originally 30,000 people, all elite foot soldiers.

After the attrition of the war, there were still more than 20,000 people left, plus 20,000 of the Qin-Zheng coalition army.

In a frontal battle, if Sun Wu can't eliminate the reinforcements of the Jin State Yu Huang's father, how can this be reasonable?

"The rest of the armies will suspend the offensive against Jiangcheng. After recuperating your energy, you can go down again! ”

"No!"

Qingji has to wait, and when Huang's father comes to the great victory, then he can go down to Jiangcheng in a fight.

After all, Jiangcheng is too strong, and the fighting spirit of the Jin army defending the city is also very strong.

If you can surrender without a fight, why not?

Qingji understands human nature better.

If the monarchs and ministers of the Jin State in the city, as well as a group of Jin army soldiers knew the news that they were isolated and helpless, how could they not have relatives and lose their courage?

……

The time entered the nineteenth year of King Qingji of Wu, that is, in 495 BC, at the beginning of the eighth month of the lunar calendar.

Sun Wu and Zihu led the allied army of Wu, Zheng and Qin, with more than 40,000 soldiers and 400 chariots, and rushed to the front line of Huang's father, waiting for the battle.

Just as Qingji expected, Zhao Ying really sent reinforcements, trying to penetrate directly from Shaoshui on the western front to rescue Chengjiang, the capital of the Jin Kingdom.

On the side of the Jin army, with Han Buxin and Wei Hao as the main generals, more than 500 chariots and 50,000 soldiers, all the way day and night, after crossing the Taihang Mountain, continue to the west, cross the Shaoshui.

"Kill!"

"Shoot the arrows!"

While the Jin army was crossing the river, Sun Wu gave the order to attack.

"Hugh Hugh!"

The rain of arrows in the sky, like locusts crossing the border, quickly spread all over the dome, densely packed in a large area.

"Poof!"

"Ahh

Caught off guard, countless Jin soldiers were slaughtered, and they fell to the ground with arrows, mourning all over the field.

"Beat the drums, march!"

Sun Wu drew his sword out of its sheath and ordered Wu's military troops to take the opportunity to rush over from the front.

"Kill!"

At this time, the Wu army had already formed an arrow array on the shore, and they were waiting for it.

After the Jin army entered the range of the bow and crossbow, they decisively threw out round after round of arrows, and shot all the enemies into hedgehogs!

"Boom!"

The horses' hooves were chaotic, and the carts galloped, kicking up a large cloud of smoke and dust, covering the sky.

Zihu personally led 400 chariots and rushed from behind the Jin army.

The archers on top of the chariot stretched out their bows and arrows, shooting one enemy after another who were panicked.

At a lightning speed, the chariot quickly rushed into the enemy formation, crushing the Jin soldiers who tried to resist stubbornly.

"Don't retreat! Don't go back! ”

Seeing this scene, Han Buxin, the chief general of the Jin army, quickly calmed down, held the sword in his hand, pointed in the direction of the Wu Guowu on the opposite side, and said loudly: "Chariot!" Charge with me! ”

"Kill—"

Han Buxin led the Jin army to ride hundreds of chariots, trying to tear a hole from the side of the warrior phalanx, and turned defeat into victory.

In this era, the mainstay of the war is still the chariot, and the infantry is only an auxiliary branch in the final analysis, how can Han Buxin realize that the Wu soldiers in front of him are not ordinary infantry?

】

"Array!"

After seeing Han Buxin leading the Jin army's group of chariots and rushing towards his side, Sun Wu issued a military order unhurriedly.

"Winter! Winter! Winter! ”

With the different rhythms and the waving of the flag, the phalanx of warriors changed rapidly.

The overall formation of the warrior square consists of five large phalanxes that cover each other.

However, one of the frontmost phalanxes (front rejection) is set up to lure the enemy, so its body is actually only four phalanxes, arranged according to the front, back, left and right, and the middle is empty.

The soldiers of the Wu State are all warriors who are armed to the teeth and have survived a hundred battles.

They must be holding a long ge, carrying 50 long arrows and an iron-tired hard bow (12 stones), and carrying three days' military rations at the same time, with a total weight of about 50 catties.

Only soldiers who can march 100 miles in a row and immediately engage in fierce battles can become military pawns and enjoy preferential treatment!

"Poof!"

"Huh!"

When Han Buxin led hundreds of Jin troops to rush into the phalanx, they were immediately met with strong resistance.

The Jin army's chariot drove straight in and broke through the front of the warrior phalanx, only to be cut apart and thrown into a mess.
