Chapter 64: The Battle of the Deer I
And the first encounter.
The two sides set it for three days later.
Because Chi You took the initiative to initiate it, the Jiuli tribe was the attacker, and Ji Xuanyuan was the defender. As for the place where the two sides are fighting, it is not somewhere else, officially this battleground.
Considering that this was the first time that the two sides had fought, neither of them had put in too many fighters.
10,000 people from the Jiuli tribe.
The Northern Tribal Alliance is 30,000 people.
After agreeing on the matters of the battle, Chi You and Ji Xuanyuan did not continue to talk, but each returned to their camps and explained the matters of the battle three days later.
It's strange to say.
Chi You and Ji Xuanyuan, before they met, both of them were jealous and dissatisfied with each other, but after this meeting, for some reason, the two had a sense of sympathy for each other.
A thought could not help but arise in each of their hearts.
If we weren't hostile to him, we'd be friends.
Helplessly, the world made people, and the two became enemies.
Let's say that after the two returned to the camp.
When Ji Xuanyuan explained the results of the battle and the related matters of the first battle, he discussed with everyone how to configure the 30,000 soldiers and what defensive formation to use.
"Let's talk about it!"
"How are we going to set up this battle?"
At the same time of inquiry, Ji Xuanyuan also talked about his views and layout strategy, so that everyone could refer to and provide opinions.
Because it was the first stop, the outcome of the victory and defeat was directly related to the morale of his side, so Ji Xuanyuan did not adopt a risky strategy, but just deployed according to ordinary combat.
30,000 men are arranged in a square formation, with 10,000 archers in front and 20,000 warriors in the rear, and the two stand alternately, so that they can exchange positions at any time.
"Then what formation should we arrange?"
"The warriors of Jiuli are not only good at joint operations, but also good at using formations to carry out combined attacks, which we have to guard against."
……
And the other side.
After Chi You finished talking about the results of the negotiation of the covenant battle and the first battle, everyone immediately quarreled, and they all competed to be the first to fight and kill the opponent's spirit.
As for failure.
It is not in everyone's consideration at all, the combat effectiveness of the Yandi tribe has already been seen by everyone, and it can be described as vulnerable.
And if there is the Xiong tribe and the Yandi tribe are equal, then the combat power of the two sides should be about the same, even if the Xiong clan is a little stronger than the other party, it will not be much stronger.
So everyone didn't take each other to heart.
Looking at the people with high morale, although Chi You was full of confidence in his soldiers, he still gave him serious instructions, and gave his own combat suggestions and requirements based on his brief understanding of Ji Xuanyuan.
Three days went by in a flash.
In accordance with the agreement, the two sides led their respective combatants to the designated positions of engagement, and arranged their troops in accordance with the strategy agreed in advance.
One-line array to square array.
Xunfeng formation against thick earth formation.
After the start of the match.
Under the leadership of the leader and the blessing of the Xunfeng Array, the warriors of Chiyou's side quickly rushed towards the place, intending to defeat the opponent in one fell swoop. However, because all the fighters who fought this time were ordinary warriors, and there were no beast rider warriors and so on, the attack was not very smooth.
Especially under the attack of the opponent's archer, the warriors who were moving forward in the front suffered a lot of damage, but the warriors on both sides quickly attacked the opponent because they were not affected too much.
"Sons, flank them on both wings."
Seeing that the two sides were not affected, Chi You's side quickly launched an encirclement of Ji Xuanyuan's side, and continuously attacked the phalanx from both sides and the rear.
"I made a mistake, and this game was lost."
Ji Xuanyuan, who was on the high platform in the distance, saw that his side was surrounded by the other party and was surrounded by enemies on all sides, and sighed slightly, knowing that his side had lost this time.
I had to reluctantly order the people on the side, and ordered Mingjin to withdraw his troops and wait for the next battle.
Lost in the first battle.
This is undoubtedly a huge blow to Ji Xuanyuan's side.
This also led to the fact that in the post-war meeting afterwards, everyone's faces were not good-looking, although they did not clearly express their worries, but their eyes all revealed worry.
The first battle was launched by Chiyou's side.
Then the second battle should be launched by Ji Xuanyuan's side.
In order to save the morale of his side, Ji Xuanyuan decided to personally lead the soldiers in the next battle after consulting with everyone.
In Ji Xuanyuan's opinion.
Although the Jiuli warriors are powerful, their own side is not without any chance of winning, at least before being surrounded by the other party, their own side still effectively prevents the opponent's frontal attack.
And after being surrounded by the other party, the reason why he was defeated so quickly.
It is not that their own soldiers are unable to fight, but that the generals led by them did not make timely adjustments and arrangements according to the changes in the battlefield situation, so that they ended up in failure.
I have to say.
Although Ji Xuanyuan is not as good as Chi You in leading troops to fight, he is good at learning and analyzing, and summing up the lessons of failure from failure.
But Chi You is not bad.
After seeing Ji Xuanyuan's way of sending troops to shooters and warriors, he also had a new idea, and decided to make a more effective match for the warriors of the Jiuli tribe.
Maybe it's the heart.
At the time of the second Great War.
Ji Xuanyuan and Chi You both chose to fight in person.
Two people.
One hopes to make persistent efforts and continue to win the second game, and the other hopes to save the morale of their side through this battle.
But it doesn't work.
There will be winners and losers in this battle, and this battle is destined to have one side's hopes disappointed.
And the result.
Although Ji Xuanyuan sent more soldiers to fight this time, he also made a more reasonable echelon match for the soldiers who were fighting, and he always paid attention to the changes in the situation on the battlefield and made the best way to deal with it.
But Chiyou's side is not at ease at all.
Obviously, his own side was the attacker, but after the start of the battle, Chi You's side took the initiative to attack, with the beast cavalry as the vanguard, to open the way for the soldiers behind him, and the newly reorganized archers, under the cover of the two, came to the designated position to attack Ji Xuanyuan.
Beast Cavalry.
As one of the most powerful combat power of the Jiuli tribe, it not only has many advantages such as fast attack speed and strong defense, but also allows the warrior to release spell attacks from demon beasts.
That.
Although Ji Xuanyuan took timely countermeasures, under the almost crushing combat power of the beast cavalry, he was still savagely torn apart by the beast cavalry, allowing the beast cavalry to constantly harass the warriors' attacks on the frontal enemy.
If it weren't for Jiang Yan, who was presiding over the situation in the rear, he would have issued the order to withdraw the troops in time.
This battle.
Ji Xuanyuan's side will also pay an even heavier price, more warriors will die under Chi You's attack, and the strength of the alliance will also be greatly reduced.
