Watching Zhi Muyu pedal away from the watchtower, Guo Rong still felt not at ease enough, so he set his eyes on Han Xiang again.

"Boss~"

"Don't look at it, go find Cheng Qian, prepare his precious guys, and if the war doesn't go well, let him throw him out directly with a catapult. Don't be unwilling, Mu Yu has been sent out, who will go if you don't go, can't I go myself?"

「……」

"If you want to watch, hurry up and run!"

Looking at Han Xiang who was reluctant to go downstairs, Guo Rong was helpless, these guys have become neither big nor small after following him for a long time, Pei Zhi is like this, Zhe Muyu is like this, and now Han Xiang is like this......

Guo Rong made up his mind that he must expand his personal team and find a few more suitable people to do chores, after all, gunpowder is still a secret at this stage, and there may be more similar things in the future.

But this year is just a moment, sending out all the two guards around him, preparing everything he can do, Guo Rong is engrossed in shifting his attention to the battlefield.

All the preparations on the Mengqian side have been the same, and the Huaixi Army's early arrival has also completed the formation, and the Huaixi Army's queue has also come to an end where it can be seen by the naked eye.

It's just that compared with the well-trained, well-supplied, and well-rested Changying Army, the mental and physical state of the entire 30,000 Huaixi Army is obviously much worse.

Seeing the obvious gap between the two sides in contrast, Guo Rong knew that all his previous efforts were not in vain.

Guo Rong had already arrived at Wu Shaoxiang in front of the battle while watching the battle, and he was also observing the battle formation of the Changying Army, even from Wu Shaoxiang's point of view, he had to admit that the Changying Army that had completed the formation on the opposite side was indeed elite.

It's just that while acknowledging the elite of the Changying Army, Wu Shaoxiang's face did have a sneering look.

Because the back road was cut off, the supply was cut off, and the enemy was attacked on the back of the abdomen, Wu Shaoxiang was under tremendous pressure, but at this moment, looking at the battle formation of the Changying Army, Wu Shaoxiang's originally somewhat nervous mood was relieved a lot.

"Idiot!"

"Pedantic!"

"Rubbish!"

Three words in a row popped out of Wu Shaoxiang's mouth mercilessly.

In his opinion, the elite of the Changying Army is true, but there are only a few thousand people, and they don't take advantage of the fact that their Huaixi Army has just arrived and the formation is a little disordered to attack, but they set up a battle formation here, isn't this an idiot?

However, Wu Shaoxiang is not sure if the other party is an idiot, but Wu Shaoxiang knows that he is not an idiot, and the other party is willing to waste the opportunity, but he will not waste it.

Taking advantage of the fact that the Changying Army did not have the opportunity to sneak attack, Wu Shaoxiang began to be arrogant in front of the Changying Army.

On the watchtower, Guo Rong witnessed the whole process of the Huaixi Army's repair, formation, formation, and array, and in only a quarter of an hour, the entire 30,000 Huaixi Army had been assembled, and a standard Tang Army battle formation composed of 30,000 soldiers and horses was presented in front of Guo Rong.

To be honest, Guo Rong was taught a good lesson, and Guo Rong once again realized that he must not ignore any opponent, and to the current level, those who are qualified to be his direct opponents always have something extraordinary. ….

Wu Shaoxiang's vision is average, his internal affairs are average, and his ambitions are amazing, but Wu Shaoxiang is definitely an expert in dispatching troops and commanding battle formations.

A full 30,000 people, in a quarter of an hour, have been transformed from marching troops into a complete combat queue that can be put into actual combat, which is not something that ordinary people can do, at least Guo Rong can't do it.

Not only Guo Rong, but no one in the entire Changying Army or even the entire forbidden army system can do it, even if it is placed in the entire Datang Dynasty, there are not many people who can do it.

As far as Guo Rong can see so far, there is only one person who can command the battle array and command the soldiers and horses to reach this level, and now he is actually the first person in the army, Lingwu Shuo Fang Jiedu Fan Xichao!

When the entire formation was completed without any pause, the drums sounded, and the infantry phalanx of the Huaixi Army began to advance in great strides.

At the moment when the Huaixi military drum sounded, the formation had already been completed

The army also began to march forward to the beat of the drums.

Heavy infantry, archers, crossbowmen, two Don armies with almost exactly the same lineup, unfolded and advanced in the same way.

As the distance between the two sides narrowed, the crossbowmen on both sides took the lead, and then the archers of the whole team began to shoot, and countless crossbows began to fly in the sky.

In just a dozen breaths, the distance between the two sides has rapidly approached within fifty paces, the rain of arrows is more dense, and the heavy infantry on both sides has increased its speed, and the two almost identical teams, like two high-speed trains, collided together, and in an instant, earth-shattering.

From the allocation of personnel, to the equipment and weapons, to the way and tactics of marching, and even the issuance and process of orders are very different, but in essence, the two sides are very different, and the real gap begins to emerge from this moment.

In terms of equipment, the heavy infantry is about the same, both sides are also heavily armoured, and they are also long soldiers, but both archers and crossbowmen in the Changying army use armor-piercing arrows!

Before the heavy infantry on both sides collided together, more than one person in the Huaixi army's military formation had fallen, although the follow-up soldiers filled the vacancy, but the Huaixi army's seemingly complete military formation had been messy.

On the other hand, compared with the Huaixi Army, which had marched for at least three hours, the soldiers of the Changying Army, who were both heavy infantry and had sufficient supplies, had an absolute advantage in both physical strength and mental state.

After the two sides clashed together, at the front of the battle formation of the Changying Army, a horizontal team composed of 200 sharpeners, 400 lancemen, and 400 spearmen stubbornly pushed back the heavy infantry of the Huaixi Army, which was more than twice as large as them.

After struggling to support for half an hour, the front line at the forefront of the Huaixi Army began to collapse.

Speaking of which, it was half an hour later, and in just one face, the main force that he was proud of was almost defeated head-on, and Wu Shaoxiang was terrified.

What surprised me was that although I had regarded the forbidden army as an elite, the degree of elite of the forbidden army far exceeded my expectations, after all, in this kind of hard-fought battle......

What I am afraid of is that the one I sent is already the strongest force in my hands, but it is still not the opponent of the other party, and if the other party's proficiency increases a little, the consequences will be unimaginable. ….

However, the number of forbidden troops on the opposite side is too small!

After determining that the most elite foot soldiers at hand could not fight against the forbidden army, Wu Shaoxiang did not hesitate.

Since the quality can't be beaten, then use the quantity to make up for it, after all, he brought a real 30,000 soldiers, and the forbidden army is only 7,000 in the end.

Wu Shaoxiang did not believe that the forbidden army was descended from heaven and could be defeated by one against ten.

Even if you use human lives, you will definitely be able to eat all the other party's forbidden army!

Seeing that his vanguard was about to be directly defeated by the forbidden army, Wu Shaoxiang issued several orders in a row, and then ......

Wu Shaoxiang's personal guards led the team to the back of the Chinese army, and after killing dozens of people in a row, although the battle line did not stabilize, the speed of retreat decreased.

While stabilizing the middle line, Wu Shaoxiang no longer simply faced the line with the Changying Army, and two armies of thousands of soldiers pressed up from the left and right flanks.

In the rear of the entire battle line, more Huaixi sergeants and soldiers, under the command of their respective military schools, are advancing from both ends of the battle formation from the left and right flanks, preparing to advance from a larger dimension.

This posture is obvious, with the absolute superiority of the number of people, he is ready to directly wrap the dumplings of the Changying Army.

Compared with others, standing on top of the watchtower, with the help of the clairtelescope, Guo Rong saw the changes on the battlefield clearly.

The elite of the Huaixi Army was overturned by a regiment of infantry battles, which was completely beyond Guo Rong's expectations, but after the initial battle was unfavorable, Wu Shaoxiang quickly adjusted his thinking and tactics, and began to deploy and deploy troops on a large scale.

Under the unfavorable circumstances of the war, the Huaixi Army, which had not rested and recuperated, was able to re-complete the formation and deployment in a short period of time, which was very against the sky.

Guo Rong himself is now a general in command, so Guo Rong knows

How difficult it is for the Tao to do this.

Originally, Guo Rong was still very surprised, how could Wu Shaoxiang, who was not even as good as himself, and his judgment of the overall situation, occupy Huaixi for decades.

But seeing today's battlefield, Guo Rong understood.

Although he had raised his evaluation of Wu Shaoxiang before, looking at the Huaixi Army in front of him that was being adjusted and deployed in an orderly manner, Guo Rong found that he still underestimated Wu Shaoxiang.

The fact that an army of 10,000 people can command the battlefield requires not only the talent of the commander himself, but also the quality of the Huaixi Army.

In other words, Wu Shaoxiang is not only a highly talented general himself, but also has outstanding skills in training soldiers.

Knowing this, Guo Rong's previous concerns and questions were also solved.

Why did Wu Shaoxiang dare to have the ambition to plot the world?

That's because he believed in his abilities and judgment on the battlefield, and he believed that he could train a strong army.

As for his own shortcomings, Guo Rong looked meaningfully at Wu Shaoxiong, who was covered in bandages and was carried to the watchtower, watching the battle intently.

Look at Wu Shaoxiong with an anxious face, and then think about Wu Shaoxiang who is commanding the army to fight, this pair of brothers has really achieved a perfect match.

With the ability of these two people, they will be trapped in Huaixi, there is only one reason, the geographical advantages are not compatible, and the three states of Huaixi can only be a small land compared to the Tang Dynasty, which is not enough to support the ambitions of this pair of brothers. ….

Now it seems that Wu Shaoxiang may not give up, but Wu Shaoxiong, who is quite good in vision, is probably really dead after he successfully attacked Caizhou.

"How does Vice Envoy Wu feel?"

was watching the battle intently, but suddenly heard an inquiry from Guo Rong, and the anxiety on Wu Shaoxiong's face turned into deep helplessness.

"Brother lost!"

"Huh?"

Wu Shaoxiong's words that popped out directly surprised Guo Rong,

"Why did Deputy Envoy Wu say this, so that my brother Yu was also very impressive in the battle formation, and the initial battle was unfavorable, but now the Huaixi Army obviously has an advantage!"

Hearing Guo Rong's words, Wu Shaoxiong took his eyes off the position of the Huaixi Army Marshal Banner on the battlefield, and the expression in Guo Rong's eyes became even more bitter.

After taking a serious look at Guo Rong and really not joking, he shook his head with a wry smile.

"General Guo can take Shaoxiong to watch the battle with peace of mind on the watchtower, and the elder brother must dig out his mind to command the soldiers, try to turn the tide of the battle, and make a judgment, and the elder brother An will have the gift of being undefeated."

「……」

This seems to be true, but Guo Rong always feels that something is wrong, so that Guo Rong doesn't know how to answer in a short time.

Looking at Guo Rong's somewhat embarrassed expression, Wu Shaoxiong smiled instead.

"General Guo is right, my brother is good at training, and he is even better at battle formations, and today's battle seems to be quite well commanded, but!"

As soon as the words changed, Wu Shaoxiong pointed to the catapult and the eight-bull crossbow that were already in a state of battle in the rear of the infantry battle formation of the Changying Army with his right hand wrapped around the bandage.

"General Guo had been prepared for a long time, so he had already lost when his brother led the Huaixi army here, or ......

He hesitated for a moment, as if he was thinking about something, but soon Wu Shaoxiong's expression became firm.

"From the time General Guo took Caizhou, or when the elder brother had undeserved ambitions, the elder brother had already lost!"

Looking at Wu Shaoxiong, Guo Rong didn't speak, but Guo Rong believed that Wu Shaoxiong was saying what was in his heart.

"My brother is a military leader, and he often compares himself to Zhong Leyi, and I am confident that I will not lose to the central Zaifu in governing the region, but what is the use of this? These are pale in the face of the general trend of the world!"

"Ten years ago, Datang fell apart, people all over the world were panicked, and my brother's ambition could still be realized, but today's Datang is not the same as ten years ago."

"Today's Tang Dynasty is vigorous and thriving, with the land of Huaixi Sanzhou, soldiers

It's only tens of thousands, the grain is not more than 10,000, and the people are less than a million, which is equivalent to a grasshopper shaking a tree compared to the Tang Dynasty, and it is the same as hitting a stone with an egg."

After saying these few words, Wu Shaoxiong looked extremely lost, and Guo Rong was sure that Wu Shaoxiong in front of him was an understanding person.

To be honest, Guo Rong has always felt that he lacks a qualified staff member by his side.

From the concept to the point of view, Guo Rong knows that the closest person to him is Han Yu, and the person Guo Rong hopes to follow him the most is Han Yu.

However, when you go out on an expedition, you always need someone who has enough ability, enough knowledge, and enough peace of mind to sit in Chang'an for you.

This person not only needs to guard the foundation of the Changying Army and the forbidden army, but also can protect the interests of himself and the Changying Army in the court, and at the same time has the ability to resist open guns and arrows from all sides.

The person who can do this, except for Han Yue, there is no second candidate, so Han Yue must stay in Chang'an, and the Wen Wu Quancai recommended by Han Yue is more suitable for Luo Chinese.

It's just that the potential of Yiluo Chinese is to lead the army alone after all, and Guo Rong has been hesitant to find a suitable staff member in the end.

Guo Rong tried to let others take his place, but Wen had Liu Yuxi, Bai Juyi, Liu Zongyuan, Wu Li Rui, Shao Shumin, Meng Qian, and even more handsome talents such as Pei Zhi and Han Xiang, but none of these people could reach the level that satisfied Guo Rong like Luo Chinese.

Until now, Wu Shaoxiong is clearly a very suitable candidate.

Just when Guo Rong was about to include Wu Shaoxiong in his staff, suddenly a loud military horn sounded, and the military formation of the Changying Army changed accordingly, and the entire battlefield suddenly began to change dramatically.

This voice indicated that Meng Gan's counterattack had begun.
