Zongxin likes to fight such battles and uses such strategies. Every time, it is to retreat as an advance, first let the enemy take advantage, and then hit him hard when the enemy is most proud and happy.

This plan is too terrifying, Guo Wei and Song Yan have seen it with their own eyes from beginning to end, they have huge doubts about their own art of war, did they learn it wrong...... Why is the way he uses soldiers different from Zongxin, because he uses a strategy, Zongxin has a corner of the sky and a corner of the earth, and he has no boundaries at all, but he is very successful every time.

Zongxin doesn't actually do much, although no one can do such a thing as fogging, but it is normal to fog in winter, and it can even be used at night. As long as the opponent's position cannot be confirmed, you can use the drum to scare the opponent and force the attacker to retreat.

Liu Chong not only did not retreat, but took advantage of the night and fog to march and directly approached the city. In fact, Liu Chong is already relatively perfect, his plan is very good, it can be said to be a successful case of planning, but everything Liu Chong does seems to be a judgment made under the control of Zong Xin, and how many psychological struggles there are are I'm afraid only Liu Chong himself knows.

Zong Xin was not idle, his approach was amazingly consistent with Liu Chong's, and he also let his cavalry troops march slowly under the cover of drums, and finally the two armies met, and the cavalry had already begun to charge.

The cavalry in the charge cannot be stopped, unless Liu Chong's side prepares early, uses the halberd as a shield, and stops all the horses in the first row first, even if this is the infantry, it will be a huge loss to the cavalry, not to mention that Zongxin's cavalry is full of scale armor, even if he uses the halberd, he may not be able to stop the charge of these cavalry.

The same strategy, the same method, Zong Xin took the initiative later, and it was expected that Liu Chong would make a plan, his attainments in the art of war were no longer far as simple as Liu Chong's, it was completely to crush Liu Chong's IQ and ability.

Guo Wei sighed: "Sure enough, the supreme realm of the art of war is the word attacking the heart, and I am afraid that no one can imitate the high moves of the horse." Liu Chong can be said to have suffered heavy losses this time, and it is not so easy to regain his strength. ”

"It's unbelievable to win more with less, I still haven't figured it out, Liu Chong has an absolute advantage in battle, even if he resists 3,000 cavalry, with his strength will not easily show weakness, why did he order the withdrawal of the army? It's a pity that the fog is too thick, and I can't see with my own eyes how the 3,000 iron cavalry trample on the 50,000 infantry, which is really a big pity. ”

Zong Xin said: "In fact, there shouldn't be too many people killed by the cavalry, although the cavalry is rampant, and it is easy to kill thousands of Liu Chong, but the fog is too thick, and the cavalry has nowhere to pursue." When the fog clears, the scattered people will gather again. Therefore, the cavalry only disrupted the enemy's position, and the infantry rushing out of Weizhou City was the main combat strength, and the enemy's position was chaotic, and Liu Chong ordered the withdrawal of the army and had no intention of fighting again, so we could catch a lot of prisoners of the Northern Han. ”

What Zongxin said is a normal situation, and it is indeed true. Three thousand men fought against fifty thousand in the fog, and the cavalry could not kill much, and the real reapers were still infantry. But in this battle, even if Liu Chong was smarter, he ordered the withdrawal of the army at a critical moment, otherwise 3,000 cavalry would run rampant in his ranks, plus the oncoming infantry, and the final result would be the annihilation of Liu Chong's entire army.

Liu Chong was really a timid person, and he was ready to retreat as soon as he saw that something was wrong, but how did such a timid person come from to dare to march in the fog and listen to the sound of drums to identify the position and go to attack the city?

"Don't you, so Weizhou City is defended, right? ”

Zong Xin nodded and said, "It can be said that because I am still in Weizhou, I must be able to keep it." However, if you want to make Liu Chong lose with this battle alone, I am afraid it will be difficult. ”

Although Guo Wei was reluctant to admit it, he had already acquiesced to Zongxin's statement. Liu Chong would not surrender so easily, and in this foggy weather, the scattered deserters were not easy to pursue. The cavalry was indeed good, but after all, the number was limited, and the fog obstructed the view, so although this battle was completely won, it was impossible to deal a fatal blow to Liu Chong.

After this battle is over, maybe the number of troops in Liu Chong's hands will be sharply reduced, but it will be good if it can be reduced by half. Most of the soldiers would regroup and return to the Northern Han barracks, so that Liu Chong's forces would still be superior to those of the Song lords of Weizhou.

Originally, there was no intention of counterattacking, and it was not easy to defend it. Zong Xin's plan actually made Liu Chong return defeated, but it was just ...... Liu Chong had no resistance in the Northern Han Dynasty, and he could send troops again to suppress Weizhou. Although Liu Chonghui wasted some time, the crisis in Weizhou was still not resolved.

Song Yan said: "Anyway, this battle can greatly hurt Liu Chong's vitality, and it is impossible for him to gather troops again in a short period of time to suppress Weizhou." When he has gathered enough troops, it is time for my scattered disciples to return, and he may not be my opponent at that time. ”

Song Valve's original strength was actually not weak, and all of them were good at the battlefield. But because of Liu Chong's suppression, Song Valve was constantly reduced in military power, and those soldiers had to do other jobs in order to survive. As long as these people knew that the Song Valve was rising again, and this time it was on Guo Wei's territory, Guo Wei instead of suppressing Song Yan, but instead of funding it with all his might, these soldiers would return to the Song Valve's account.

It's just that many people have gone too far, and it will take a long time for these people to get the news and rush back. Since they were those Song soldiers in the Northern Han Dynasty, it was not easy for them to come to Weizhou through the Northern Han Dynasty, so what Song Yan needed was time, as long as Liu Chong gave Song Yan enough time, it would not be a problem to defend Weizhou.

Zong Xin chuckled and said, "How can Liu Chong be so kind? He won't give you enough time, after this defeat, Liu Chong will definitely immediately gather a large army to attack head-on." But please rest assured that as long as I am here, Liu Chong will never be able to attack him. ”

Regarding this, Guo Wei and Song Yan never doubted it. They knew that Zong Xin had this ability, and they had also witnessed Zong Xin's strong strength countless times, and it was far more reassuring to have him in Weizhou than thousands of troops. This is the real effect of a smart mind, Zongxin can really play the opponent to death, only those who don't open their eyes will go against Zongxin.

............

The cavalry pursued all the way, slashing from morning to noon, and finally the troops of the Northern Han were completely dispersed, and even though there was no fog for a long time, the cavalry could hardly find any trace of the enemy. It was only at this time that Zhao Pu and He Meiyu ordered the withdrawal of their troops and returned to Weizhou.

This battle lasted for a long time, and it took half a day to return to Weizhou. No matter how good the physique of the war horse is, it is tired after a long gallop. The brothers of the Ao Gang first unloaded some heavier armor for the horses, and then dismounted with the armor in their arms. After the horses have regained their strength, they can ride back.

After returning and counting the number of people, the Ao Gang only injured dozens of people, and most of them were only slightly injured, only a few people were seriously injured, but they were not life-threatening. As for how many Northern Han people died, I don't know, the battlefield is too big, the battle line is too long, it is impossible to calculate, and the corpses of many Northern Han soldiers have been trampled into flesh, because they are among the wild grasses outside Weizhou City, I don't know how many people will become fertilizer for these wild grasses.

It was not until the evening that all the numbers were counted, and the losses of the Song Valve's soldiers were not small, but most of them were when they were defending the city, but the gains were greater. The soldiers of the Song Dynasty captured more than 4,000 deserters, and the number of kills was incalculable.

In fact, the brothers of the Ao Gang didn't know what was going on, they just received an order from Zhao Pu to take advantage of the fog and the sound of drums to march, calculate the distance and then move forward slowly. After encountering the enemy, there is nothing else to say, just rush over and slash and slash.

The people of the Ao Gang have known about it for a long time, so their rush to kill them went so smoothly. For the first time, the Ao Gang took part in a full-fledged battle, a battle that required little brains, they just charged with their horses and cut down people when they saw them. The fog flooded the entire battlefield, and they didn't know how many people they had killed, they didn't know how cruel the battlefield was, only that Zongxin was finally willing to let them go to the battlefield.

For the first battle, the Ao Gang performed too well, and there was no psychological pressure on the soldiers, they did not know how many people they had killed, and this situation would also greatly improve their psychological quality. They had killed people, but they didn't have negative feelings about it, which was the most important thing that Soshin had for their first training.

"The widow has been on the battlefield for decades, and he has never won such a big victory. 10,000 against 50,000, they actually killed them without leaving a piece of armor, and no one believed them when they said it. Guo Wei was happy in his heart, and set up a banquet to entertain Zong Xin and several leaders of the Ao Gang.

"Your Majesty believes it. Zhao Pu said: "Xiaomin can solve his worries with His Majesty, it is a blessing for three lives, and the ancestors accumulate virtue." The Ao Gang is willing to smear Mingjun's liver and brain, and he will not hesitate to do so. ”

Everyone looked at Zhao Pu with disdain, this grandson began to pat Guo Wei's ass when they first met, although he knew that Zhao Pu was such a character, but he looked really cheap. Everyone's hobbies are different, Zhao Pu's hobby is to pat on the back, in fact, even he may not notice it, but every time Zhao Pu sees a slightly more powerful person, he will slap a fart, and when others are comfortable, Zhao Pu himself is also happy.

Zhao Pu was originally a very sleek person, he wanted to keep climbing up, but the little Ao Gang couldn't meet his pursuit at all. So Zhao Pu was cheeky and waited for Zongxin for three years before waiting for the opportunity to establish Yandao, and now that the Ao Gang is coming out, Zhao Pu is very excited about it.

As the leader of the Ao Gang, what Zhao Pu desires most now is to expand the Ao Gang again, and the best thing is to get an official and a half position from Guo Wei, so that the Ao Gang can become a formal army and can fight for Guo Wei. Only when you have made military achievements on the battlefield will you have greater success.

So Zhao Pu saw that Guo Wei was patting on the back, one is habit, and the other is ambition. However, it is obvious that Guo Wei does not eat this set, Guo Wei's feeling for a person is to see what he does, not what he says. This trick is almost useless to Guo Wei.
