Wang Bo rode a horse and stood on the high ground, looking at the battlefield in front of him, there were too many people in the Youjun army, and they were completely lined up, and a large area of black pressure was seen in the distance, which was very oppressive.

The Tang Army on his side was scattered, roughly arranged in three pieces, forming an inverted "Pin" shape, which were the first division on the left flank, the third division of the Chinese army, and the second division on the right flank. Scattered and scattered, it doesn't look as neat and imposing as the ghost army.

The two armies of Tang You have now finished arranging, and they are about to start fighting, and at this time the Tang army began to change formations.

The soldiers in the first ten rows did not move, and the rear row moved very much, but from the field of vision of the Youjun, there was no movement in the back of the Tang Army.

Wang Bo rode a horse and stood on the high ground behind the Tang army, like a stone sculpture, without moving. At this time, there was no fear in his heart, whether he lived or died, it was up to him to fight.

At noon, the scorching sun hung high, and on the high slope north of Dai County, the overall situation was in Wang Bo's eyes. The formations of both sides have been lined up, and anyone can see that the big battle is about to begin.

After a while, the 50,000 Youjun in the distance took the lead in sounding drums and trumpets, and then there were flags dancing behind the Youjun, and the army all over the mountains began to move forward slowly.

As soon as it moved, the front line in front of the ghost army began to become a little crooked. The Great Formation of the Ghost Army moved very slowly, and the advance of the Shadow Army was not as fast as the usual walk. On the vast plain, the Youjun army formation was slowly approaching the Tang army formation.

Wang Bo held his breath, and there was a brief blank in his mind, and there was actually nothing to think about at this time. In the face of such a momentum of thousands of troops, swallowing mountains and rivers, and suffocating oppression, all the calculations and calculations of interests and stakes have become meaningless. If this battle is lost, all the enemy troops on the opposite side will be killed, and those trivial things will be meaningless.

As the Youjun slowly approached, Wang Bo's tall figure remained motionless, standing behind the army on horseback, surrounded by many personal soldiers and heralds.

The Tang army's large array did not move at all without his orders, but at this time, the sound of rumbling horses' hooves was heard in the east.

The cavalry of the 2nd Division on the right flank of the Tang Army was dispatched, the green grass was trampled into mud by the horses' hooves, and a large number of cavalry rushed out from the southeast, forming a cone formation most commonly used for cavalry charges, crossing many fields, and rushing straight to the west of the Youjun.

In front of a big banner with the word "Li" hunting in the wind, this is Li Bai, the first fierce general of the Tenth Army under the command of the acting king!

The huge cavalry marched through the ridges, crossed the north-south avenue, stepped on the canals where the people irrigated the fields, rolled up the dust all over the sky, and went straight to the left flank of the army, and the enemy soldiers who were lined up on the east side near the avenue.

The unstoppable momentum could be felt from two or three miles away, and there was visible turmoil on the left flank of the Youjun army formation.

The army of Youguo began to change and respond, and many cavalry at the front of each phalanx came out one after another, in their own order, from west to east, rushing to the left flank of the army, wanting to intercept the cavalry of the Tang army.

The entire battlefield was instantly obscured by the smoke and dust raised by the horses' hooves, and the wide open space between the two armies' military formations turned into a contest for the cavalry of the two sides for a while.

The cavalry of the Tang Army went straight to the left flank of the Youjun army, and the cavalry of the Youjun army galloped east to rescue.

Li Bai took the Tang cavalry to turn a small turn to the left, and instead of attacking the left flank of the Youjun army, he rushed straight to the cavalry that came out to reinforce him!

Yan Wuhuan, the prince of Youguo, looked at the actions of the Tang army's cavalry, and thought in his heart: Sound the east and attack the west?

In the distance, a large number of galloping cavalry collided in the open space in the large formation of the two armies, and the entire battlefield was turbulent in an instant, and the sound of shouting and killing could be heard from two or three miles away.

The contest between the cavalry is the most experience-tested, because the war horses meet at high speed, life and death are only in an instant, and the slightest difference can determine life and death, so those elite cavalry who come out of the life and death field are the most terrifying.

The cavalry of the Tang Army was unmatched, and after the two sides collided violently, it was like two colors of quicksand colliding, instantly intertwined, interspersed, stirring and rolling.

As soon as the battle began, the cavalry of the Youjun army on the west side was visibly defeated, and many cavalry were stabbed off their horses in the first round of confrontation, and the limelight was suddenly frustrated.

The two sides fell into a scuffle and strangulation in the open space in the center of the large array. Wang Bo rubbed the hilt of the knife at his waist

, thought: The cavalry of the Youjun army can't have a chance, they have few cavalry, and the person who leads the troops is Li Bai. When it comes to cavalry warfare, the iron cavalry of the Bearded Man is not yet Li Bai's opponent, let alone the cavalry of the Youjun Army.

The two sides strangled for nearly two quarters of an hour, and the already small cavalry of the Youjun army was fully revealed, and Li Bai led the elite guards to kill through the enemy array, returned from the west, and rushed towards the enemy again.

The cavalry of the Youjun army began to rout, the cavalry of the Tang army pursued fiercely behind, they did not dare to flee back into the big array, more than a thousand cavalry of the Youjun army only dared to flee all the way to the east, and soon crossed the path on the edge of the ridge, rushed into the canal used to irrigate the fields, and after wading across, they did not turn back to the east to flee.

Li Bai did not dare to attack the Youjun army after killing the cavalry of the Youjun army, and the Youjun army continued to move forward slowly, preparing to compress the space of the Tang army's cavalry. Li Bai and the cavalry of the Tang Army could only be forced to retreat to the east. The battlefield once again turned into a contest between the main infantry of the Youjun Army and the Tang Army. The Youjun army formation is gradually approaching, and a major battle on the whole front is inevitable.

Wang Bo stared at the front tightly, looking at the long line of the two armies running east and west, and his heart was much calmer. Because at this point, there is not much room left for him to deal with change. All he can do is execute the idea according to the previous arrangement.

When he saw that the Youjun army was mainly infantry, there were not many cavalry, there were no reserves, and they were all thrown into the battlefield at one time.

As a senior general of the Tang Army, of course, he went to the martial arts academy to study. Back then, the school teacher once said such a sentence: "If you don't decide something, hit the oblique attack".

The tactic of oblique attack appeared briefly during the Zhou and Qin dynasties. The principle is to use the physiological characteristics of people to hold weapons in their right hands, which leads to the generals in order to exert their combat effectiveness, and most of the time the right wing is arranged with elites;

In addition, there are too many people, the front is too long, and it becomes difficult to support, and it is difficult for both the Chinese army and the right flank to quickly support the left flank.

So concentrating all the elites in one place and quickly defeating the right-wing elites on the opposite side by surprise is the essence of this tactic.

This tactic is one of the best solutions when one's own forces are unable to confront the enemy head-on.

However, the oblique attack tactic is not a panacea, and it is short-lived and disappears into the battlefield. This is because this tactic has two weaknesses:

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

The second is mobility, mobility is the sworn enemy of this tactic, if you encounter an enemy unit with a lot of cavalry, a large number of cavalry can be quickly reinforced to the right flank that is being targeted, resulting in your own side unable to quickly defeat the enemy's elite.

Therefore, this tactic is rarely recorded in the history of the Central Plains War, and it is hardly used by generals. Because in the face of a large army with a mixture of reserves and infantry and cavalry, using this tactic is tantamount to sending people to death.

But when he saw the array of the Youguo army on the opposite side today, Wang Bo instantly thought of this tactic. Because the formation of the ghost army on the opposite side is a little ...... Confused!

First of all, I don't know if the prince of Youguo looks down on him, or because he doesn't know how to fight the battle of the big army at all, tens of thousands of people are arrayed, and there are no reserves left at all!

The second is that the cavalry brought by the ghost army this time is very small, each phalanx will be arranged in the front, the infantry will be arranged in the back, and the front will be arranged to reject the horse and the sharp iron cable, resulting in the rear infantry can not advance to meet the enemy at the first time, if there is a change, the front cavalry can only take the lead to deal with it.

This is the reason why Wang Bo asked Li Bai to feign attacking the left flank of the Youjun army, so that the cavalry at the forefront of the many large formations of the Youjun army could be transferred out and defeated.

Wang Bo didn't dare to let Li Bai take the cavalry to directly charge the military formation of Youguo, there were more than twenty columns of military formations everywhere, even if the iron cavalry of the Tang army rushed in, it was only a dead end.

Wang Bo took a deep breath, looked at the mountains and fields in the distance, and gradually approached the Youjun, and said to the herald beside him, "Order the left flank phalanx and advance!"

The heralds everywhere carried the quadripartite flags and quickly sounded the flags, and they were located on the high ground so that the whole army could see the flags.

The left flank was the most elite first division, with the reserves of the second and third divisions, and Song Shilun, Ma Mo, Zhang Song, Wei Yi, Feng Du and other fierce generals and wise generals were all arranged there.

The thick array has reached a terrifying fifty columns!

Starting from the leftmost flank, the Tang Army's eight phalanxes began to move forward in turn, crossing the middle and right flanks of the army formation by about 100 paces, in order to allow the weak central army and the right flank to meet the enemy later.

Wang Bo looked at the large formation of the two armies that were getting closer and closer in the distance, and tried to calm himself and remain motionless. At this point, his heart became transparent and peaceful. He has done everything he can, and now all he has to do is to stand still and let the flag of the Tenth Army stand tall as the spiritual pillar of the army.

After a while, there was a shout of killing in front of him, and the sky over the green field was covered with black arrows, like a large black locust, whistling and throwing into the opponent's military formation.

Immediately afterward, the shouts of killing echoed in the air like thunder, and the large array in the west began to meet the enemy. The shouts of killing were higher and higher, like waves echoing in the wilderness, and all kinds of flags were intertwined, and from a distance, one could only tell where their army was by the banners.

Wang Bo's gaze passed through the mountains and the sea of people, and locked tightly on the right flank of the Youjun army in the west.

The wave-like Tang army all rushed to the right flank of the Youjun army, but at this time, their central army and left flank did not meet the enemy for a long time, because the Tang army was advancing in echelons, and when the right flank started, the Chinese army and the left flank were still hundreds of steps away from the Youjun formation.

However, the Youjun army in the west soon found that the situation was not right, because a large number of people poured out from the rear of the Tang army on the right flank, fighting on the one hand, and outflanking them on the other.

There are ridiculously many Tang troops on the right flank! The arrangements are all well-armored veterans of the 10th Army of the Tang Army.

At this time, the Youjun on the opposite side suddenly fell into a situation of fighting more with less, and the Tang army on the opposite side was all elites dressed in iron armor and each tiger's back.

Liu Mu, who commanded the right-wing Youjun, was a little confused, what was the situation? How could there be so many people in the Tang Army here?!

Seeing that the soldiers in front of him were cut down one after another, and the large array was difficult to maintain, Liu Mu roared angrily and asked people to ask for help.

However, the line of the Youjun army was too long, several miles from east to west, and only the two phalanxes close to the far right flank realized that the situation was not right, and changed direction, trying to support the elite of the right flank to the west.

The rest of the large array did not understand what was really happening on the right flank for a short time, and continued to advance according to the order.

Wang Bo stood on the top of the mountain and watched such a situation, his fists clenched tightly. About ten minutes later, the Chinese army also began to engage the enemy, most of the Chinese army in the second division were recruited from the mountain people, they were strong, the will to fight was tenacious, although the strength was thin, only a thin ten columns, but also the enemy on the opposite side was sticky.

The Tang army formation of the second division fought bravely under the command of the division commander Ju Meng and fought with all its might. Even though there were a large number of soldiers in the army, they were forced to retreat constantly.

After a while, the thin right flank also began to engage the Youjun army under the leadership of Yang Qin, the commander of the third division, and the soldiers of the third division were not as elite as the first and second divisions, and they were forced to retreat constantly when they were not superior in numbers. The Third Division did not collapse entirely because the harsh military law was there, and no one dared to retreat.

Seeing the Youguo army in the east advancing towards Wang Bo's location step by step, Han Pu, the captain of his own army, was extremely nervous.

Han Pu led his own soldiers to set up a shield in front of Wang Bo to cover it, and persuaded him, "Lord Wang, go back and retreat, it's too dangerous here!"

Wang Bo shook his head mechanically, straightened his waist and remained motionless, his eyes fixed on the right flank of the army to the west, where the elite of the Tang army was constantly encroaching on the elite right flank of the Youjun army with an absolute superiority in strength.

"Lord Wang!" Han Pu was a little anxious and wanted to pull Wang Bo back and leave, but Wang Bo still didn't move.
