Dayang is not big, just a small county town south of Zhongtiao Mountain.

Zhongtiao Mountain is also known as Xiangshan Mountain and Boshan Mountain.

"Feng Zen Book" records: from the west of China, the famous mountain is seven, and one is called Bo Mountain. The thin mountain, Xiangshan also, is also the different name of the middle article.

Zhongtiao Mountain is more than 100 miles from west to east, connecting the Taihang Mountains, and is an important part of the mountains and rivers in the state.

In peacetime, this east-west mountain range undoubtedly hindered north-south traffic. But during the war years, the value of the mountain range was enormous.

As far as the direction of Dayang is concerned, there are not only Maojin, an important ferry port connecting Shaanxi County on the south bank of the Yellow River, but also Yubanling, which runs through Zhongtiao Mountain, which can be described as a key point.

Maojin placed the sun off during the Northern Zhou Dynasty.

In the Tang Dynasty, a permanent pontoon bridge was built, called "Dayang Bridge" or "Sun Bridge", and it was managed by 200 sailors in Kaiyuan.

More than ten miles northeast of Maojin can reach Dayang County - Tang Tianbao was renamed Pinglu County at the beginning of the Tang Dynasty, and it has not changed since then.

The northeast of the county follows the Shajian River valley to the north, and after crossing the mountain road, you can go to Yuyuan - Yuyuan, Yu Zhong sealed, and the Jin State borrowed the road to Yu to cut down the people also.

There is a mountain road down the mountain from Yuyuan, more than 20 miles long, and it is not easy to walk. However, after walking through this difficult mountain road, we entered the flat Yuncheng Basin, and walked more than 30 miles northwest to Anyi County, the seat of Hedong County.

Cao Wu, the general of Pingbei, led the army to camp here, and the precaution was that the Xiongnu went out of Hedong County, and then crossed the Yuban Road, crossed the Zhongtiao Mountain and crossed the river to the south.

But he failed, and the army of more than 10,000 people was almost completely annihilated.

Now Wang Mi's troops are stationed here, and they will cross the river to attack Luoyang on another day, and they will be the vanguard.

In short, it's a bridgehead.

To communicate with Dayang, it is necessary to cross Zhongtiao Mountain.

Hongnong communicates with Dayang, and needs to cross the Yellow River north.

Now Shao Xun is here.

In the early morning of August 29, an endless army had already arrived and covered the whole field.

Left behind in Dayang was Wang Sang, and about 20,000 soldiers were stationed inside and outside the city.

Shao Xun gave him a chance to fight like a man.

Don't play any conspiracy and tricks, arrayed in the wild, fight to the death, dare not?

Wang Sang had to fight, because the city of Dayang was small, and the families of thousands of local soldiers under his tent lived outside the city, and they couldn't evacuate in a hurry.

At the beginning of the hour, the two sides finished their breakfast and began to line up in the wilderness.

Wang Sang basically pulled out all the people who could be pulled, and the 20,000 people were neatly arranged and discharged into a phalanx.

Judging from the formation, it can be seen that Wang Sang is still a little timid.

His family knows his own affairs, and the 20,000 people have only been trained for a year, and their combat strength is limited, so it is better to take the initiative to attack the enemy to find death, so it is better to discharge a relatively conservative formation and wait for the enemy to attack.

If you are lucky enough not to be scattered, you can take advantage of the enemy's dull front to launch a counterattack, or have a chance to win.

"Shao Xun is a thief, I know it. Growing up on the coast of the East China Sea, he was filial piety and honesty, brutal and murderous. ”

"If you are captured by him, you will all be under the sword."

"Your wives and daughters shall also be dishonored by their soldiers."

"For the sake of your family, you should fight to the death, and your feet will not spin."

Wang Sang started the pre-war mobilization.

I have to say that the effect is still good. After hearing that their families might be bullied, at least the thousands of local soldiers had a surge of war in their hearts.

On the other hand, the Jin army also began to arrange troops.

"Chen Yougen!" Shao Xun shouted.

"The last general!"

"You lead ten teams of soldiers as the front, and this is the first formation."

"No."

Chen Yougen immediately ordered 500 men, including 400 heavy armored infantry, armed with heavy swords, long-handled axes, wooden rafts, and rifles—all weapons with greater self-weight.

Another hundred men were armed with crossbows and carried heavy swords.

"Jin San!"

"The last general!"

"You lead two armies of silver spears, followed by fifty paces, for the second formation."

"No."

Jin San immediately ordered the first and second buildings of 1,200 people, and finished the formation after the battle front.

"Duan Liang!"

"The last general!"

"You lead the Tiger Bendu cavalry, and distribute about Jin San, this is the third formation."

"No."

Duan Liang, the cavalry governor, took the order and left, and after a while, five hundred cavalry led the war horses and scattered to the second formation or so.

The position is slightly further back, with two hundred and fifty riders on each side.

"King Sparrow!"

"The end will be."

"You lead the six Silver Spear Army, which is the fourth formation, which is the main formation of the Chinese army, and stands under the Great Sword."

"No."

The third to eighth buildings, a full 3,600 silver-speared soldiers, were deployed around Shao Xun's body.

"Chen Yi!"

"The last general!"

"You led the auxiliaries in the rear, behind the Chinese army. This is the fifth formation. ”

"No."

After Chen Yi took the order and left, thousands of auxiliary soldiers immediately took action.

"Wang Yan, Hao Chang!"

"The last general!" The two said in unison.

"You two each have two hundred horsemen, and they are stationed in the rear around the formation, which is a surprise soldier, and it is the sixth formation."

"No." Among the troops from all walks of life, there were also good cavalry fighters, and a total of 400 people were put together, led by Wang Yan and Hao Chang.

"Lou Quan, Lou Bao!"

"The last general!"

"Each of them led one hundred and fifty men who were good at bows and crossbows, and spread them around on the left and right sides of the whole army. If a thief approaches, shoot at him. This is the seventh formation. ”

"No." The second general took the order and left, and quickly picked out the people, all of whom were old subordinates of Hebei in the past.

"Tang Jian!"

"The last general!"

"When the whole army is attacking, if there is a rout, immediately go forward and kill them. If I flee, behead me, and do not hesitate. ”

"No." Tang Jian replied loudly.

He led more than 100 personal soldiers, with bright light armor all over his body, well-armed, and powerful.

There are also hundreds of soldiers and armor soldiers on his side, which is a reserve.

"Command, drumming march!" Shao Xun boarded the command vehicle and ordered.

"Drumming marches into ......"

"Knock Knock Knock ......"

The drums of war rumbled, and the murderous spirit was wild.

"Kill! Kill! Kill! The soldiers of the Jin army struck the ground with their spears, roared three times, and then moved forward.

******

Wang Sang also climbed a high platform and looked ahead.

The army has its own laws, and when the array is in the field, the commander must live in a high and distant place.

Set up a big drum, put drums and horns on the left and right, and leave the reserve.

After the commander gave the order, he led the reserve team to attack, or make a final decision, lay the victory, or go forward to plug the leak and turn the tide.

Wang Sang set up a big army today, with drums and horns and reserves, which shows that after a year of training, this unit at least looks quite orderly from the outside.

If you can go back in time, Wang Sang with 20,000 people can easily defeat himself in May last year.

The regularization of the army has a very huge impact on the improvement of combat effectiveness, and the poorer the foundation, the greater the improvement -- this is like going from zero to 60 points, and from 60 to 90 points.

In the troubled times, everyone is making progress - except Sima Yue.

From Wang Sang's point of view, the Jin army discharged a typical goose-shaped formation.

There are 500 "head geese", with long lances and heavy axes, large shields and heavy swords, and the momentum is violent.

After the "head goose", there are three rows of wild geese.

In the middle are more than 1,000 spear soldiers, and there is no doubt that it should be the silver spear army of the Shao thief tribe.

There were also two or three hundred horsemen on the left and right, leading the horses on foot, and they were slightly behind.

The third platoon was a thick Chinese army, with more than 4,000 people.

And then there's ......

This array is really arrogant!

didn't take the 20,000 of them into account at all, and completely had the idea of breaking it.

The first formation cannot be broken, and the second formation continues.

The second formation could not be broken, and the main force of the Chinese army directly pressed up.

In short, highlight a slam and rush, and win or lose.

The drums rumbled, like a talisman.

"Buzz!" A rain of arrows shot from the phalanx.

On the opposite side, he held a large shield, barely trying to cover it.

As for the projectile, it may be able to deal some damage, but not much.

Fortunately, there are also crossbow machines, although there are not many, but every time they are launched, they can always penetrate the heavily armored samurai on the opposite side, and even create a blood path.

"Kill!" The other party quickened his pace and rushed up suddenly.

Hundreds of crossbowmen scattered on both sides, firing one after another.

"Doo!" Most of the crossbow bolts were blocked by their shields, but many of them still fell screaming in the array.

The pikemen in the first row had already laid their guns flat, ready to stab at any moment.

But the other party was undaunted, like a heavy hammer, smashing in.

"Bang bang!" The spear pierced the shield and made a constant sound.

The shield hand on the opposite side riveted his strength and pushed forward with all his might.

The swordsman raised his heavy sword aloft and completely abandoned his defense, slashing down with great force, creating a large bloody storm.

There are also people who take long-handled axes and smash them directly at people's heads and chests, and the force is so great that it is smacking, as if they have practiced it alone at home a thousand times.

The wooden rafts are actually not bad, thick at the top and thin at the bottom, and have spikes on their heads, and when they sweep with the sound of the howling wind, they can often knock down several people.

As soon as it was closed, the front row of people fell in pieces.

Then came the second and third rows.

The five hundred men were like sharp knives, piercing directly into their soft abdomen, cutting out huge wounds.

What's even more terrifying is that the knife is still drilling in, and even if it pays huge casualties, it has to be torn and stirred repeatedly, expanding the wound and making the injured flow more blood.

Wang Sang's eyes were about to pop out, and his throat was unconsciously dry.

He knew that the Shao thief in front of him must be a dead soldier in battle, and his combat power was strong, but the one in front of him was also a veteran elite......

The formation was directly dented, what the hell is going on!

He made a quick decision, and when the battle was only a stick of incense, he sent a reserve.

The reserve force totaled 2,000 people, and after leaving Daxu, in order to advance quickly, it was divided into two parts, and advanced through the gap between the two small formations, intending to flank the dead soldiers of the Jin army.

But just as they were hurrying away, the second formation of the Jin army had already crossed a short distance of fifty paces and suddenly arrived.

The Hubendu cavalry, which was scattered on both sides, immediately attacked, and with arrows in their heads, regardless of casualties, they crashed headlong into the enemy reserves that were moving forward.

On the battlefield, people are on their backs.

Although the Tiger Bendu cavalry was limited by the infantry and could not rush up, their presence itself effectively stopped the advance of the enemy's reserves.

The 1,200 silver-speared sergeants under the command of Jin San sped up their pace, followed the gap opened by the government soldiers, and swarmed up.

Fighters are fleeting, and sometimes it's that moment that fights.
