Shu Chen

Chapter 180
The Han and Wei armies met seventy miles south of Yangcheng.

This place used to be a horse ranch in the time of Emperor Jing of the Han Dynasty, and it was called Huchiyuan; Emperor Ping of the Han Dynasty changed it to Anmin County to resettle refugees;

No matter how the years change, the land that used to be a horse ranch has always been flat.

It is a good place for the two armies to fight fiercely and anoint wild leather.

Whether cavalry or infantry, there is enough space to move around.

It is also a place where you can test your chances.

The wide field of vision allows the two military governors to have a clear view of each other's dispatch of soldiers and horses.

Wei Jun had to report to the scouts a long time ago, knowing that Wei Yan led the army to come by detour.

At this time, Fei Yao had already led the army to the confluence, and took over the command of the battle without hesitation.

Although he led more than [-] troops, his official position was the post-general.

And when he led the expedition in Yongliang and Liangzhou, Xia Houba and Xu Miao had not yet set foot in Guanlong.

However, up to now, he has nothing to command.With all the troops coming, and the enemy coming to fight with high spirits, their only choice is to fight against them.

Because the flat terrain makes them unavoidable.

If they retreat, it will lead to the collapse of soldiers' morale.

Do it all at once, second time tired, third time exhausted.

Let me ask, the soldiers in the army felt that it was difficult to fight against the Han army in the city of Anding County, but now they are rushing to fight, but they are fleeing, what should those soldiers think?
If General Wei Yan of the Han Dynasty returned to attack the Anding counties, how much courage would they have to fear death?
In particular, the Wei army gathered here has a strength of nearly [-]!

The Han army is only a little more than 20,000.

The only worrying thing is that the soldiers of the Wei army are mixed.

The rangers of Xianbei's bald-haired tribe can still harass and plunder, but they are weaker in desperate battles.

As for the infantry, the [-] county soldiers led by Xu Miao, the governor of Yongzhou, were very responsible for escorting food, fodder and supplies. The two armies fought against each other.

The 5000 people commanded by General Xiahouba are worthy of a battle.

Grand Sima Cao Zhen initially awarded him [-] headquarters, all of whom were veterans in the army, and the remaining nearly [-] people were recruited later, but after two or three years of hard work in martial arts, he did not lack awareness and courage in the army.

As for the headquarters of the later general Fei Yao.
It is the elite of Cao Wei.

He, Wei Ping, and Dai Ling were once the vanguard generals under Cao Zhen's direct command.

The three of them were never absent in every Yongliang battle, and they were also relied on by Cao Wei to suppress and deter dissidents.

Each headquarters has more than [-] troops, among which well-armored soldiers account for three-tenths of the entire army!

This is a rate that countless generals would envy.

For example, among the [-] soldiers under Xia Houba's command, only one thousand of them were equipped with armor, less than one tenth.

This is also the result of Cao Zhen seeing him as the result of special preferential treatment after his meritorious service in the Wei State-his deputy general is Xu Gai, the son of Xu Huang, the former right general of the Wei State, and the real superintendent of more than a thousand soldiers in the army.

Therefore, after considering the advantages and disadvantages of the enemy and ourselves, Fei Yao's dispatch is also very appropriate.

He found Tufa Shoutian, the leader of the Xianbei Tufa tribe, and asked him to lead the army to intercept the cavalry of the Han army.

It is not required that he be able to destroy the Han cavalry, but only that he be able to restrain the Han cavalry from attacking Wei's formation from the side during the infantry battle between the two sides, causing the soldiers to collapse.

And staring at the eyes of the bald-haired Shoutian with murderous intent, he said:

"If there is a cavalry against Shu to disturb the formation, I will kill all of your people with military law! If there are cavalry against Shu to charge the formation, I will fight against all your people with military law! If all cavalry against Shu come to charge the formation, I will definitely Report to Da Sima to move all the women and children of the Ru family who settled in Youfufeng to scattered households in various states and counties in the hinterland of the Central Plains!"

It also made the bald Shoutian feel awe-inspiring.

After all, he ushered in, and Wei Guo's picture was poorly seen.

Tribal women, children, cattle and sheep were all exposed to the swords of tens of thousands of Wei soldiers, which made him lose the courage to resist Wei's general order.

This is the price of moving into Fertile Pass.

In other words, when the princes of Wei Luoyang temple in the past made the decision to move them to the fortress, they had hidden their intentions to swallow them up.

Now, it's just because of the urgency of the war that the original intention was revealed in advance.

"promise."

Respectfully agreed, the expression on the bald-haired Shoutian's face remained unchanged, and he turned and left cleanly.

Controlled by others, more contention is not good for oneself.

Let's start with it.

Wait for the war to make plans.

The bald Shoutian, who came back and scolded his tribe, drove his horse slowly to meet the enemy, his face was already sullen.

Although the task Fei Yao gave him was not difficult.

It is really not difficult to restrain the Han army with [-] cavalry with [-] cavalry.

But if he wanted to ensure that the Han cavalry were not allowed to support the infantry in combat, Shoutian would have to sacrifice the lives of many of his tribe.Because he can only make the Han cavalry chase after them only by using rangers to attack the Han infantry.

Coincidentally, after the Changli River Valley in Longyou was ambushed in the past, the most distressing thing for the bald Shoutian was to lose his tribe.

After all, there are fewer young and strong people in the clan who are jumping horses and controlling the strings. Wouldn't he, the leader, be reduced to a cattle and sheep waiting to be slaughtered?
Thinking of this, the bald-haired Shoutian couldn't help but look back in Luoyang's direction.

His bald-haired father is now in Luoyang.

After a while, he turned his head resolutely and raised his eyebrows to look in the direction of the Wushui (Qingshui River) valley in the north.

It is now the habitat of the Qifu tribe of Xianbei.

Coincidentally, the balding department and the begging department had been in contact with each other before, and their friendship was acceptable.

"drive!"

Raising his whip and whipping his horse, Shoutian, bald, finally calmed down and led his tribe towards the Han army.

Of course, Fei Yao didn't know what was going on in his mind.

Or maybe they knew it, but now they don't have the heart to pay attention to it.

Outside the western skyline, the tooth flag of the Han army has already floated from the ground.

The war will start!

What Fei Yao asked Wei Jun to display was Yu Lizhen.

This formation was originally an formation in which infantry formations were surrounded by chariots for evacuation in ancient times.

Now after the chariot has withdrawn from the stage of history, it has evolved into infantry relying on WISCO chariots to fight forward step by step.

For example, Zheng Zhuanggong asked: "How is Yu Lizhen?"

Gao Qumi replied: "A chariot with 25 riders is sideways, and armored soldiers form a team of five. One of each chariot is in the front, don't use five or five armored men to follow behind, and plug its leaks. If a car hurts one person, the team will make up for it. There is no retreat. This formation is extremely strong and dense, difficult to defeat and easy to win."

"Sima Fa" has a saying: "25 times in a chariot battle is biased."

The Yuli Formation is an offensive formation with weak defense, and it is mostly used for desperate battles on flat ground.

In other words, Fei Yao planned to fight to the death.

The front line is the [-] soldiers from his headquarters; the middle army is Xiahouba's headquarters, with Xu Gai, who is in charge of more than a thousand soldiers, in the front; and the rear line is Xu Miao's [-] soldiers.

Well, Xu Miao's county soldiers are equivalent to suppressing the formation.

Because, if even the Xiahouba tribe of the Chinese army was defeated by the Han army, then the outcome of this battle would have been decided.

Wei Yan, who came slowly from the warlord, couldn't help laughing when he heard that the scouts reported that the Wei army was ready for battle.

What he is most worried about is that he will oppose Wei and avoid fighting.

What if the two armies fought to the death~~~
Oh, I wish for it!

"Forcing the Niwei Rats to fight this time is a great achievement!"

Looking sideways, Wei Yan patted Huangfu Long's back, and said with great arrogance, "The front line is a place where swords and arrows flock to show off their might, and it's extremely dangerous. Be happy and go back to the back line first and wait a little longer, until I break the adversity." Wei, drink and celebrate with you again!"

After saying that, without waiting for Huangfu to make a sound, he waved his hand and let the trilogy beside him protect him to leave.

Huangfulong didn't feel that his martial arts were despised, he just nodded with a smile and left.

Because his martial arts is really not good.

And after marching all the way and getting along with him for a short time, he also got a general idea of ​​Wei Yan's temperament.

This big Han Zuo general doesn't like red tape, and he is very popular with soldiers, but there is one bad thing: whether intentionally or not, his words often make people feel unhappy.

And Wei Yan has turned his attention to the decision-making of the match.

When the two armies approached each other for about ten miles, he took advantage of the soldiers unloading their belongings and adjusting their marching formation, and drove his horses with his followers to watch the formation of the Wei army.

When he saw that Wei Jun listed the Yuli array, he couldn't help but sneered, "The local chickens and dogs, the ones who put in bids and sell their heads, actually want to use Yuli to fight against the power and evil of my big man!"

Immediately, he restrained himself and observed carefully for a while before returning.

Instead, let the soldiers pass orders to Wu Ban and Chen Shi, and let them lead their own divisions, line up on the left and right wings, and march in parallel.

As for the cavalry governor Zhao Guang, he had already been sent to fight the rangers of the Xianbei bald department.

Similar to Wei Hou general Fei Yao's thinking, he did not expect cavalry to participate in the decisive battle of infantry.It's not that he doesn't like the combat power of the cavalry pawns supervised by Zhao Guang, but that it's unnecessary.

It's just a mere garrison against Wei Yongliang, and it's not elites such as tiger and leopard cavalry or tiger guards, so why do they need cavalry to support them!

Even if there are more than [-] enemy soldiers, if he wants to break them, it will be as easy as pie!
"Beat the drum and urge the battle!"

Accompanied by Wei Yan's order, the drums of the Han army burst out loudly.

The formation formed by the Han army is the male formation.

Also known as the cone formation, the striker is sharp and fast like a cone, and the wings are strong and powerful. It is also an offensive formation.

However, compared with Wei's Yuli formation, the Han army's formation was regarded as giving up defense.

In other words, offense is the best defense.

When the two armies approached for about three miles, Fei Yao, who was standing under the banner of the general behind the front line of the Wei army, couldn't help but stare slightly.

He suddenly discovered that the Chinese army's dental flag was flying in the front of the Han army's arrows.

In other words, Wei Yan, who is the main general, was on the front line!
It is common sense that the governor will not fight in person.

He thought that it would be really rare for him to lead the soldiers from his headquarters to serve as the front.

But he didn't want Wei Yan to be more decisive than him.

Taking the lead can certainly inspire the courage of the soldiers to die; but once they die in battle, wouldn't it lead to the collapse of the entire army?
Could it be that he has other arrangements?
Fei Yao was a little puzzled.

Because he was sure that Wei Yan entered Youfufeng alone, and there could be no other backup.

It is impossible to rely on cavalry to attack the formation from the side.

Xianbei's bald-haired department and Han cavalry governor Zhao Guang have already chased and fought each other, and they are twenty or thirty miles away from this place.

But keeping reducing the distance didn't give Fei Yao much time to think.

All of a sudden, the drums and horns of the Han army sounded loudly, and the banners fluttered in the wind.

Wei Yan, who was in the front row of soldiers forming a cone, held a shield with one hand, raised his sword high, and slowly walked towards the formation of Wei Jun's chariots, shouting, "Fight!"

Take the lead and inspire the courage of the soldiers.

"war!"

"war!"

The eyes of the soldiers gradually turned into fanaticism, and they also drew out their ring-shoulders, struck the shield, and moved forward with clamor.

At the other end, the soldiers of the Wei army formed by chariots, also led by generals at all levels, marched forward step by step like a rainbow.

Both the Han and Wei dynasties, both in an offensive formation and charging forward slowly, only threw arrows when they were approaching the point of arrows, and the front slanted beyond the crossbow arrows, and then they let out thunderous roars.Looking down from the sky, the red awl that shows Huo De collided fiercely with the yellow ocean (Wei Xing Tude, dressed in yellow) coming in parallel.

It's like rumbling and heavy thunder resounding through the valley, and it's like a vast expanse of raging waves hitting the mountains.

The ring-headed knife clanged and danced, the spear whizzed and flew, and the dull shouts and short roars made the mountains and rivers tremble!

The front rows of the two armies are all elite soldiers, and they are all warriors who have died generously.

They are dead on each other's heels.

The ferocious faces of the soldiers, the low howls, the flying blood dripping swords and spears, the thin snow trampled into mud... the whole field was shrouded in the tragic atmosphere of this primitive fighting.

Husband and warrior, courage too!
Both sides shouted to kill like thunder, and they were desperate and refused to give an inch.

In just a quarter of an hour, around the chariot formation that Wei Jun relied on, the corpses were stacked half a person high.

And these layers of corpses became the best stepping stones for the Han army to attack.

Countless red-eyed soldiers rushed to the front of the chariot formation, stepped on the robes or the corpses of the enemy soldiers, leaped into the air, and fought desperately.

The shrill sound of horns shook the mountains, and the sound of thunderous drums shook the world.

However, Fei Yao, who was in charge of the battle at the front of the Wei army, turned dark little by little.

He suddenly remembered that there used to be a general in Wei, who would lead the way in every battle.

And always win more with less!
That is the former general Zhang Liao.

For example, when Yuan Shang was in Liucheng in the conquest, he took the lead and killed Karasuma. In Xiaoyaojin, he personally led [-] soldiers to smash the Soochow, which was known as [-], and almost captured Sun Quan.

Now Wei Yan also wears firm and persistent, and takes the lead, not because of the bravery of ordinary people.

Instead, he wanted to take advantage of his vigor to tear through Wei Jun's formation in one fell swoop, and then take advantage of the situation to pursue and cover up the kill.

Because the Han army has few soldiers and goes deep alone.

They don't have much time to spend here, otherwise they will be attacked by the great Sima Cao Zhen who got the news, don't send troops to attack.He didn't dare to let too many soldiers die here, or even if he won for a while, he would be slowly dragged to death by Wei Guo because there was no follow-up food support.

Fei Yao understood, but it was too late.

There is already a gap in the car formation of his former army
"Soldiers, follow me!"

With his eyes tearing apart, he pulled out the side blade on his waist, and strode forward with his bodyguards, trying to block the slowly widening gap in his front line.

Even Xu Gai, the general of more than a thousand soldiers in the Chinese army, was transferred by him.

It's just that the advantage of the male formation is that once Yafeng tears the enemy's formation, the left and right wings will pour in continuously, expanding the loopholes in the enemy's front and squeezing them to both sides.

When Fei Yao and Xu Gai came to block the gap with their elites, Wu Ban and Chen Shibu on the two wings of the Han army had already squeezed into the Wei army formation.His remedial action only curbed the advance of Wei Yanbu, but could not prevent Wu Ban and Chen Shi from continuing to tear up the Wei army's formation.

This disappears, and that grows.

The pros and cons of the Han army expanded bit by bit.

Wei Jun's array also collapsed bit by bit.

Xia Houba, who was in the central army, also found out, but he was even more helpless.

Yu Lizhen, there is no retreat.

If the formation is torn apart by the enemy, the WISCO vehicles that the soldiers rely on will become an obstacle to the rescue front.

"Recover the Central Plains!"

"Recover the Central Plains!"

Slowly, as time went by, the slogans of the Han army dominated the battlefield.
