Chapter 1168: See the Battle of Ryuhara
On January 19, the intermittent heavy snow stopped again, and the warm sun shone on the land.
……
The sound of war drums was stirring on the Dragon Plain, and this fertile field had become the best battlefield, the Yang Shang Legion had always been known for its power and iron cavalry, and Qianfeng was also quite confident in the positional warfare of the Qin army, and the battle had already begun before dawn.
Looking at the past from Xiping City, the fertile field in the east is densely packed with a sea of people, the Ziyin Flower King Flag and the dark blue military uniforms of the imperial soldiers form a blue ocean, and in the distance, the red clothes worn by the Yang Shang army are like blood-stained, from the point of view of numbers, it is still the Shang army that occupies an absolute advantage, more than 400,000 people against the 200,000 people of the light wind, naturally has the advantage.
However, there are still more than 100,000 horses in the city, and once they leave the city, it will be difficult to predict the outcome or defeat.
"Who's the striker of the shallow wind? Xiang Yu frowned.
"It's Chen Xiaoli, the commander of the garrison of Seven Seas City. Feng Jixing raised his eyebrows and smiled: "Chen Xiaoli was originally the general of the Tang family, and he was like a snow wolf in the north, good at capturing fighters and tearing apart the enemy's flaws with a fierce offensive. ”
"Really?"
Xiang Yu was noncommittal and said, "When are we going to attack?"
"Don't worry, first sharpen the spirit of the merchant army, let everyone have a good rest, and then talk about it in the afternoon, this big battle can't be fought in a day or two. ”
"Hmm. ”
After a stick of incense, the war drums roared, and the vanguards of both sides really began to charge each other, Chen Xiaoli did not charge personally, but raised his long sword, and behind him a thousand commanders led the headquarters to attack, and the phalanx of mixed infantry and cavalry slowly went away, and if you look carefully, you can find that most of the infantry is composed of heavy shields, spears, bows and crossbows, about 20,000 people are in the center, and the cavalry is divided into two strands on both sides, slowly ready to go.
On the other hand, the tactics of the won are much simpler, cavalry impact, brainless impact!
"Ha, the won is defeated. Feng Jixing said with a smile.
Stargazing and Lin Xun also laughed, most of the commanders in the merchant army selected some people with high cultivation and prestige, rather than those who could really use soldiers, which was the fatal flaw of the merchant army.
As expected, nearly 50,000 iron cavalry of the merchant army rushed on the shield array, crashed into a ball, and wantonly slashed and killed Chen Xiaoli's infantry, but Chen Xiaoli's cavalry arranged on both flanks began to accelerate, sweeping the leaves in the chaotic enemy cavalry formation with a strong wind, and the sound of killing rose to the sky for a while.
On the one hand, there is a mess and no command, and on the other hand, there is an orderly and neat array, even if there is a huge disparity in the strength and combat power of the two sides, but it is still doomed to the result, and the method of operation is always the most important link in the war.
……
"Chen Xiaoli doesn't seem to have the desire to take the initiative to fight......," Lin Xun said, "His phalanx has not moved much forward, but the infantry of the merchant army has unconsciously moved forward for nearly three miles." ”
This is exactly where Chen Xiaoli and Qianfeng are clever. Feng Jixing said with a smile: "The merchant hoplites are just some ordinary people, but the shield, armor, and blades together weigh hundreds of catties, and an ordinary person carrying hundreds of catties of equipment to move three miles, his physical strength is almost exhausted, and the cavalry is different, you look at the southeast corner, the ten thousand high-level demon elite cavalry of the shallow wind are ready to attack." ”
Lin Xu took a closer look and was immediately relieved.
Which of the commanding generals on the battlefield is not a famous general?
It didn't take long for nearly 80,000 heavy infantry of the merchant army to arrive at the battlefield, but before the battle array was arranged, the sound of killing was heard in the distance, and the shallow wind had already ordered 10,000 elite demon iron horsemen plus 5,000 armor demons to charge.
Fight fast and slow!
In an instant, the 80,000 heavy infantry were actually shattered by the impact of the demon phalanx, which was far less than their own, and where was there any defensive formation, they were completely reduced to the target of being slashed.
……
"Commander Han won, how do you use your troops?"
On the platform of Shang Guo's spectators, Yang Shang asked lightly.
Han Yuan's face turned pale, and he said, "Your Majesty, I ......"
On the side, Xun Xi said: "Your Majesty, the Dongning Corps will inevitably be defeated in no more than an hour!"
"What should I do now?" Yang Shang was a little anxious.
Xun Xi smiled faintly: "Those monsters known as the Protoss were originally the elite of the Light Wind Division, and the only way to defeat them was to rely on His Majesty's most elite corps." ”
"You mean...... Shenyu Battalion?"
"Yes, please send the Divine Feather Battalion to fight, only the Divine Feather Battalion can reverse the defeat. ”
"Okay!" Yang Shang took a deep breath and said, "Dora, you go, don't let me down." ”
"Yes!"
Dora turned on her horse, and after an order, more than 40,000 god feather battalion horsemen slaughtered out like a whirlwind.
In the Qin army, Qin Yan led the parliamentary army to rush to cover to protect the demon army from being wiped out by the Shenyu Battalion.
……
Time passed bit by bit, and soon it was close to noon, seeing the sound of fighting on the Dragon Plain, and even everyone could faintly smell the bloody breath coming from the battlefield, on the city, the generals looked at the battle situation in the distance from afar, Xiang Yu frowned and said: "The Shenyu battalion has all attacked, I'm afraid that if you wait any longer, Qin Yan's parliamentary army will be wiped out." ”
Feng Jixing nodded: "Tang Zhen has also launched an attack, and the Shenyu Battalion is entangled...... Send the order down, leave 5,000 people to defend the city, and the rest of the people will go out with me to directly attack the Chinese army of the merchant army!"
"Yes!"
Not long after, the mighty forbidden army iron cavalry took the lead out of the city, and went straight to the already shaken merchant army to kill, and the forbidden army was waiting for work, the degree of elite can be imagined, for a while there was some stalemate on the battlefield hesitation to join the wind and follow the addition of the department, and suddenly a stone stirred up a thousand waves, and the killing sound was even stronger, and the 150,000 thunder soul corps of Dugu Xian faced the wind and followed.
Seeing that the dragon plain was completely chaotic, it was a mess, and hundreds of thousands of troops were inseparable.
Corpses are all over the field, rivers of blood flow, snow and grass are covered with blood, broken blades and war horses that have lost their owners everywhere, the artillery fire on both sides has been exhausted, and now they can only rely on flesh and blood to fight, and even these famous generals of the Great Qin Empire gradually can't grasp the formation, from a positional battle to a melee, and the rest is just the verdict of fate, who is the real winner, no one knows.
……
The fierce battle has been going on, the people on the battlefield rushed back and forth, the whole night passed, the fighting still did not stop, and even the wind followed the order, the three armies took turns to rest and melee, many soldiers retreated three miles and slept for a little time, ate some dry food and drank some water, and immediately grabbed the bloody blades and rushed to the battlefield.
Neither side was willing to take half a step back, so much so that seeing that the dragon plain was full of corpses, the formation of the army became chaotic, and there were armies of both sides fighting each other everywhere.
In the blink of an eye, it was night again, and it was already the second day of the fierce battle.
The two sides ceased fighting for three hours, and before dawn they attacked again.
Feng Jixing's robe has been stained red with blood, he doesn't know how many times he has escaped the pursuit of the two demon gods Long Xi and Filip through the cover of the Book of Heaven, the casualties of the forbidden army are very serious, and the soldiers who died under the clutches of the two demon gods alone are at least thousands, but this is war, whoever loses first will lose control of Xishan Province.
In the darkness of the night, the torches were almost all extinguished.
Feng Jixing's face was covered with blood, and he slowly pulled out the Red Phoenix Knife, and the light of the knife illuminated the people nearby, only to see that Qianfeng, Qin Yan, Tang Zhen and others were also embarrassed, their armor was torn, full of blood, and they were all injured of varying degrees of severity, and no one could not be injured under this kind of vicious battle.
"How many more people do we have?" asked Feng Jixing.
"Less than halfway. "Shallow air ducts.
"It doesn't matter, the losses of the merchant army are even greater!" Feng Jixing raised his long knife with boundless killing intent in his eyes, and shouted: "The enemy army is two miles away, kill me, and fight to the end!"
Everyone raised their swords one after another: "Bloody battle to the end!"
If the god of death saw this scene, he must be very happy, because the souls all over the land, the dead people all over the land, saw that Long Yuan had become a purgatory on earth, a battlefield of slaughter.
……
On the night of the second day of the fierce battle, the strength of the merchant army was instantly reduced by as much as half.
On the third day, the merchant army began to rout.
In the face of this iron-blooded army commanded by Feng Jixing and Qianfeng, the Tianjie Legion fled, and all the more than 100,000 soldiers became deserters, and how could the remaining nearly 100,000 remnants of the army be the opponent of the Qin army, at noon, Yang Shang ordered a retreat and retreated to Tianji City.
After three days of fierce fighting, he finally won.
The Qin army rested in place, almost everyone had a feeling of escaping purgatory, and those who could survive this war were the lucky ones.
……
On the first day of the defeat, Yang Shang killed 27 high-ranking generals on the way to retreat.
The next day, Yang Shang ordered the beheading of 54 Wenchen.
On the third day, Yang Shang arrived at Tianji City and killed 288 civil and military officials.
The news of the defeat had spread in Tianji Province, and it was spread in the imperial capital of the Shang State, and almost everyone knew the news of the defeat of the Shang Emperor's imperial expedition, although it was ...... The government posted a list of articles, saying that it had already hit the opponent hard, but everyone knew that the wind and shallow wind of the Great Qin Empire were in Xiping Mansion, and they were only slightly injured, but it was the Shang army that lost three commanders and 37 commanders, and almost all the senior generals were killed in battle, and the rest were cut down by the angry Yang Shang for the crime of incompetence.
What's even worse is that the Shang Kingdom has been completely divided, and the news from the east that Chen Yu has re-ascended the throne as emperor in Burning Cold City, and the entire Heavenly Absolute Empire has been freed from the control of the Shang State and re-established the country.
The world is completely divided into three parts, and among them, the Shang State is in decline, and the Qin State is the strongest.
……
See the Battle of Longyuan, the most tragic battle of the Great Qin Empire.
The total number of troops of the shallow wind and the wind was 35W, and after the Battle of Longyuan, there were only less than 16W left, and while the merchant army was hit hard, it was also hit hard.
In the final analysis, most of the parliamentary army are new recruits, and most of the army in Xiping Province are new recruits, and they are not well trained.
