Volume 1 Troubled Times Chapter 181 Win!

was forced by An Hao to be anxious, Wang Rong pushed it away, and shouted angrily: "What are you talking about the waste mother?!" If you talk more, Lao Tzu will cut you! The head has fallen off and there is a big scar, what are you afraid of?! What's there to be afraid of?! Stand up straight for Lao Tzu! ”

As he spoke, Wang Rong picked up a shield and, together with An Hao and his guards, formed a shield formation and moved forward. This shield was prepared for Wang Wei before Wang Hao went into battle, and there was also a jujube wood spear left. Wang Rong inserted the "10,000 enemies" back into the scabbard, stood behind the last row of soldiers with his spear, looked at the gap, twisted his wrist, and the spear stabbed out like a poisonous dragon, and then pulled it back, and saw that the spear blade was dripping with bright red blood, which was so dazzling.

Wang Rong's words just now shouted so loudly that the soldiers who were close to heard it, and their hearts were no longer shaken, and they all straightened up, clenched the swords and spears in their hands, showed their will to die, and fought with the Ji army in front of them with a hideous face.

Wang Rong's personal participation in the war certainly could not change the current passive situation of the Chinese army and the left wing. However, it caused the Ji army to fall into the quagmire of terror, and the fighting between the two sides became more and more intense. Wang Rong saw with his own eyes that a soldier of the Bingzhou Army had several spears stuck in his body, but he tried his last strength to bite the throat of the infantry soldier of the Ji Army, and the hard iron armor of the throat guard was bitten off by him.

There were also people holding ring-headed knives that were already full of gaps, riding on the bodies of the Ji army's foot soldiers, using the knife as a saw, and pulling vigorously on their necks, and their faces were covered with blood.

Li Mubai looked at the battle situation in front of him with a pale face, and there was like a fire in his chest, which was about to erupt, but there was nowhere to go.

At this moment, several foot soldiers rushed to him with a general, and by the time he saw the comer, Tie Qing's face had turned blue-black.

The person who came was Li Mubai's nephew, and Li Xi at this time almost made Li Mubai dare not recognize him. At the beginning, the personable and polite Pingcheng guard at the city gate was already extremely miserable at this time. His armor was in tatters, his left arm was dripping with blood, and white bones were visible from the wounds. There were still three or four long arrows on his back, because there was no time to rest, the long arrows were not cut off, and the tail feathers trembled and shook with Li Xi's movements.

Li Xi pushed away the Ji army foot soldiers who were supporting him, and regardless of his injuries, he knelt in front of Li Mubai with a "poof", and said with tears in his eyes: "Uncle clan, my nephew has embarrassed you... ”

Li Mubai closed his eyes in pain, raised his hand and gestured, and several guards behind him stepped forward and clamped Li Xi up, he looked at the miserable Li Xi and said: "Military law is ruthless, you go back to the city to treat your injuries first, and then talk about everything." ”

Li Xi saluted with difficulty, and then was taken away.

A middle-aged general beside Li Mubai looked at his side face and asked tentatively, "Dashuai, what should we do next?" ”

At this time, the battle situation was not good for the Ji army, although the Yong army was small in number, but because of its strange way of playing, the right flank in the north was outflanked. Moreover, the Yong army fought bravely, and yes, the right flank of the Ji army continued to move backwards and south.

Looking to the north, the right flank of the Ji army was being surrounded and encroached upon by the Bingzhou army with an absolute superiority in strength. The infantry phalanx arranged by the Ji army on the right flank of the north was broken one after another, and the infantry of the Ji army was beaten all over the bag and fled in all directions.

The cavalry sent by the Ji army to support the army was also very damaged, and the cavalry commander saw that he really couldn't rush over, so he had to withdraw with the cavalry and support him around Li Mubai.

Li Mubai has really lived for most of his life, and it is the first time he has seen such a war, because the Ji army has too many troops and the battle line is too long, the shortcomings are exposed.

Heralds often have to travel long distances to get orders from their commanders to their targets, and the situation on the battlefield is ever-changing. The first order was only half executed, and then the second order came, which made the deployment of the Ji army more and more chaotic.

Coupled with the rout troops who fled from the north, slowly, the entire Ji army began to become panicked, and the foot soldiers of the Ji army, who were still able to form a formation on the right flank, desperately moved to the south, thinking of getting rid of the outflanking and striking of the Bingzhou army! Inevitably, the central army and the right wing of the Ji army were affected to varying degrees.

The pressure on the central army and the right flank of the Bingzhou army suddenly decreased sharply, and they no longer retreated slowly, and began to make some active counterattacks, entangled the middle army and the right flank of the Ji army, and bought time for the northern battlefield.

When the sun was setting in the west, Wang Rong and the soldiers of the Third Division were still fighting at the front line, and the military flags and general flags behind him were flying in the wind, looking at each other from a distance of several miles from the Daxu of the Ji Army.

The cavalry of the Bingzhou Army took the lead in rushing towards the position of the Ji Army, and behind the cavalry there were the infantry of the Bingzhou Army who had already run away, and they tried their best, holding swords and spears in their hands, and ran towards the position of the Ji Army.

The collapse of the right flank in the north inevitably affected the morale of the entire Ji army, and the reason why it can still hold on now is entirely because of the Ji army and the commander of the Ji army under the big Xu, Li Mubai.

When Li Mubai saw the cavalry of the Bingzhou Army rushing towards him, he had completely lost hope for victory. With difficulty, he squeezed a word out of his mouth: "Withdraw!" ”

The herald behind him hurriedly rang the alarm bell in his hand, and the sharp and piercing sound of "bell" resounded throughout the battlefield. Li Mubai looked at the Bingzhou cavalry who were getting closer and closer expressionlessly, and as soon as he had a horse rope, he took the guards around him and ran towards Pingcheng with Daxu on his shoulder.

At the moment when he saw the Ji army on the opposite side start to move, Wang Rong's hands trembled, tightly grasped the jujube wood shaft of the spear, and stabbed a Ji army foot soldier who turned around to flee to the ground.

Wang Rong did not follow the soldiers of the third division to pursue, but immediately sat on the ground, gasping for breath, and said to An Hao on the side: "General An's martial arts are good, but the kid witnessed the general's heroic posture just now." ”

An Hao listened to Wang Rong's words, waved his hand, and said: "It's old, it's useless, if this was before, the old man could kill him seven in and seven out, but now he doesn't dare!" ”

An Hao looked at Wang Rong and asked: "General, your formation this time is very strange, if there is any accident here, I and the state army will be 'die before leaving the division'." ”

At this moment, Wang Rong knew that he had won, and as soon as the Ji army moved, it would trigger a snowballing chain reaction, the Ji army was numerous, and it was a large army fighting, and the soldiers could not see Li Mubai and his people, they could only look at the flag. When they saw Daxu moving, the soldiers would think that the commander had fled, so they would run desperately, and as soon as the soldiers fled, the entire front completely collapsed.

Wang Rong looked at An Hao, who was also panting and recovering his strength, and said: "When I saw that the Ji army had no reserves, I thought of this 'slash tactic'. The principle of this tactic is to take advantage of the physiological characteristics of people, and the sergeants and soldiers of the army are all holding weapons in their right hands, so most of the generals arrange their elites on the right flank in order to give full play to the combat effectiveness of the army under their command.

Moreover, the Ji army has a large number of people, and if there are many of them, the front will be too long, and it will become difficult to deal with emergencies.

Therefore, I concentrated the 1st and 2nd divisions of the Bingzhou Army in one place, and by surprise, quickly broke down the large left flank on the opposite side, which was the essence of this tactic.

When our forces are unable to confront the enemy head-on, this oblique attack will be the best method. Of course, this tactic is not a panacea, and there are many limitations.

The first is the reserve, our Central Plains has had a lot of experience in the battle of large armies since the Zhou Dynasty, and many generals will keep reserves to supplement the weak areas of the army's formation at any time.

The second is mobility, once you encounter an enemy army with a large number of cavalry, because it can be quickly reinforced, it will cause us to be unable to defeat the enemy army quickly.

The victory today is completely providential. First of all, Li Mubai wanted to annihilate our and state troops in one fell swoop, so he did not keep reserves. The second is the combat effectiveness of the Daijun cavalry, I really didn't expect Wuluo and Changwo to be so powerful, and with my Hezhou cavalry, they fought more with less, so that the cavalry of the Ji army could not support the northern battlefield.

It was a combination of reasons that allowed me to win this victory. ”

Indeed, in fact, Wang Rong had long been prepared for defeat, but the losses would be less. But the reality of the situation gave him a big surprise, he didn't know why the combat power of the Daijun cavalry was so weak.

That's right, the Daijun cavalry led by Li Mubai does not have the image of a strong army at all. Under the attack of 10,000 cavalry, the cavalry of 50,000 Daisan counties collapsed and scattered. At the cost of 5,000 casualties, the cavalry of the state left 20,000 Daijun cavalry on the battlefield.

The casualties of the foot soldiers were even greater, 40,000 foot soldiers, divided into three parts, more than ten large formations. As far as Wang Rong could see, there were already several large arrays on the verge of shattering.

As the sun set, the large fields outside Heijo City had been painted black and red with blood. Everywhere there were stumps, broken arms, mutilated corpses, and blood staining the fields red. Thick and bloody and a cold east wind blew across the land, and even from a long distance in Heijo, it could be smelled in the wind.

Wang Rong had long been accustomed to this kind of smell, and he walked on the battlefield that had been crushed into mud by the heavily armored foot soldiers, not caring at all that his shoes and boots were stained by blood and mud.

At the end of the war, the Ji army had been terrified by the Bingzhou army that had been copied from the north. At the same time, the soldiers of Ji were completely discouraged by the heavy casualties, so that the formation was broken and it was difficult to gather.

The soldiers and soldiers of Ji only cared about fleeing for their lives, and the whole army gradually turned into a plate of scattered sand, and the sound of gold from the Chinese army accelerated this process.

The various units of the Bingzhou Army chased after the Ji army, and the two armies started a running race in the field, and the slow Ji soldiers were killed and captured by the Bingzhou army. The fast-moving Ji soldiers also threw off their armor and traveled lightly, rushing to the city gate before the drawbridge was raised.

The Ji soldiers with scattered formations could not all react quickly, and many Ji soldiers had no fighting spirit, so they directly threw away their weapons and knelt in the fields to surrender.

On the entire battlefield, the mountains and fields were full of scenes of Ji soldiers running and fleeing, Wang Rong helped An Hao, the two looked at the scene in front of them, looked at each other, and laughed loudly to vent their emotions.
