Volume 3 The Mountain Rain is Coming Chapter 190 The Decisive Battle
After contributing alchemy to the sect, Li Zhe can be regarded as living a happy life with food to open his mouth and clothes to stretch his hands.
There is no need to worry about the cultivation resources anymore, the task of the sect is naturally too lazy to do it, and helping the sect to refine the Dan once a year is considered to have completed the task, and it is easy to explain in front of Shen Zhoutian.
On weekdays, it is to refine the alchemy, cultivate and brag, and then brag with Xu's uncle and nephew and Zhong Ling'er, and the life is leisurely.
One day a few years later, a shocking battle was taking place in the middle of the Beacon Plain, but the protagonists of this war were replaced by mortals.
An army of two million mortals is stirring up on a front that stretches for dozens of miles.
After nearly ten years of fierce soldiers, the military strength of the Zhou State reached its peak.
Not only did he expel all the armies of Wu and Yue from the land of Zhou, but he also waged wars from time to time and invaded the land of the two countries.
Under strong pressure from the Zhou state, Wu and Vietnam had to form a military alliance to deal with the Zhou invasion.
Three months ago, Emperor Zhao Yide of Zhou sent an envoy to the two countries and agreed to a decisive battle on the Beacon Plain.
Regardless of whether the two countries accept it or not, Zhao Yide did his best to raise the elite army of the whole country, with a total of 800,000 troops to kill the Beacon Plain.
Wu and Vietnam had no choice but to raise their armies, each with 600,000 troops to meet them, and an unprecedented war broke out.
The victory of Wu and Vietnam was due to the strength of the outnumbered people, and the victory of the Zhou army was due to the well-equipped, and the bloody battle was not won or lost in March.
After a long time, the advantage of the Zhou army in fighting was reflected, and it was still rustic, while the armies of Wu and Vietnam were disheartened, and the defeat was revealed.
Zhao Yide seized the opportunity and launched an attack on all fronts, preparing to settle the battle in a decisive battle.
From morning to noon, the soldiers on both sides were tired and hungry, gritting their teeth and persevering.
The Chinese army of the Zhou State erected a high platform, and the Zhou Emperor Zhao Yide sat in it, and beside him stood the emperor Yin Lige and several ministers and guards.
Behind Zhao Yide stood a flagpole with a dragon flag floating on it, and only when the emperor personally recruited the Chinese army would replace the handsome flag with the dragon flag.
The dragon banner flying high, the emperor who was as immobile as a mountain, and was calm and composed, gave the soldiers of the Zhou State infinite courage, and hunger was forgotten.
Zhao Yide, who is nearly thirty years old, has long been childish, and has changed to an emperor who is not angry and arrogant.
He condescendingly looked down on the entire battlefield, giving orders from time to time.
When the order is transmitted to the high platform, there will immediately be a herald with an order flag on his back, who will fly out of the Chinese army and run to all directions of the battlefield to transmit the emperor's military orders to the generals.
By the afternoon, the balance of the battlefield had finally tilted in favor of Zhou, and the battle lines of Wu and Yue had collapsed.
Zhao Yide stroked the dragon ring in his left hand with his right hand, and finally showed a smile on his face.
The overall situation has been decided, and he finally unified the most fertile land in the central part of Youzhou, fulfilling the grand wishes of the emperors of previous dynasties.
Suddenly, a group of heavily armored cavalry rushed out from the Chinese army of Wu Yue, formed a triangular formation, and rushed into the spear formation of the Zhou army.
The spear array is the natural enemy of the cavalry, and it is impossible for the cavalry to break through the spear array from the front, even the elite hoplites with heavy armor on men and horses. Attacking the spear array head-on is tantamount to suicide.
Seeing this change on the battlefield, Zhao Yide frowned.
Is the commander-in-chief of the opposing side a fool to waste the most elite hoplites in such a way?
Apparently not.
If it weren't for the superb command of the opponent's commander, Zhao Yide was very sure that he would have crushed the opponent's formation two hours ago.
This is a once-in-a-century genius general, and Zhao Yide is a chess opponent and will meet a good talent.
The hoplites could not break through the spears, but they rushed forward one after another, rushing out of a bloody path in the spear formation, and advancing fifty paces forward.
Fifty steps was enough, the cavalry in front flashed to both sides, and a big man jumped out of the center of the cavalry formation, two heads taller than ordinary people, with extremely exaggerated muscles, indicating extraordinary divine power.
The big man jumped off the horse, took out a one-man high longbow from his back with his left hand, and took out a long arrow with his right hand, aiming at Zhao Yide is an arrow, the action was like a flowing cloud, so fast that people couldn't react.
The big man was full of divine power, and under the full bow, the long arrow shot at Zhao Yide at an unbelievable speed, and the surrounding guards had no way to react at all.
Fortunately, Zhao Yide was not an idle person, and he didn't have time to pull his sword, so he even fought hard with the sword sheath.
The arrow changed direction slightly, and slid past him dangerously, and the tail feathers even tore a wound in his face.
Receiving this blow, Zhao Yide fell to the ground.
The long arrow did not hit Zhao Yide, but it accidentally hit the flagpole behind him.
The flagpole fell in response, and the dragon flag fell to the top of the platform.
"Zhao Yide is dead, and you can avoid death by surrendering. ”
From the camp of Wu and Yue, a huge shout came out, and the sound spread throughout the battlefield.
The soldiers of Zhou looked back at the high platform, and the emperor really lost his trace and fell into a panic.
Suddenly, Zhao Yide jumped up, stood up again, and shouted, "The emperor is fine." ”
In order to make the soldiers see clearly, he took off the golden helmet on his head and threw it aside, revealing his true face.
"Hooray, hooray!" the Zhou army erupted in deafening cheers, and their morale was shaken.
Killing Zhao Yide was the last chance for Wu and Yue to win, and the Han missed with one arrow, and the full bow was another arrow.
At this time, Zhao Yide became the focus of the battlefield, and everyone's eyes were focused on him.
With a wave of his left hand, he stopped the guards who wanted to come over with a shield, and with his right hand, he drew his long sword and slashed at the arrow accurately.
The long arrow was pressed down and struck at the ground beneath his feet, as if surrendering to him.
He stuck his sword on the ground, stretched out his left hand and shouted, "Bow here." ”
A guard has already offered a golden bow.
He picked up the long arrow on the ground in his right hand, pulled out the golden bow, and shot it at the big man, and the action was also smooth.
The long arrow pierced the throat of the big man, and the big man fell on his back.
This arrow crushed the last fighting spirit of the Wu-Yue coalition army, and they all retreated backwards in unison, and the formation collapsed.
Zhao Yide picked up his long sword and waved it forward, shouting, "Kill." ”
The soldiers of the Zhou State who came back to their senses bravely broke into the enemy formation.
The cavalry, arranged on both flanks, immediately converged behind the coalition forces, and the encirclement was formed.
The defeat of the coalition has been decided, and even if the gods come, there is no way.
Unable to return to heaven, the coalition Chinese army raised a white flag and demanded surrender.
Zhao Yide was unmoved, still waved his long sword, and shouted: "Kill." ”
The soldiers of the Zhou State slaughtered the allied forces in the encirclement.
An old minister hurriedly said: "Killing and surrendering will hurt the peace of heaven, and it will be punished by heaven." Your Majesty, please think again. ”
"I didn't accept their surrender, it wasn't a surrender. ”
The minister was still not convinced, and said again: "Heaven has the virtue of a good life, please order Your Majesty to seal the sword and accept it." ”
"The Master is a scholar, and he doesn't know the strangeness of the battlefield. The coalition forces outnumbered our troops, and there would be trouble after nightfall. At that time, it will be us who will be in the mouth of the tiger. I can only order surrender if the number of allied forces is reduced to less than half of our army. Zhao Yide smiled and said.
