Rebirth of Wu Ba Spring and Autumn

Chapter 915 The Brave Wins
Pulled around and moved the whole body.

With Gong Zizhang occupying the important place of Qi County, the strategy of defeating Zhao that Qingji and his officials had made before was basically disrupted.

In the tug-of-war, the state of Wu can afford it, but the state of Zhao cannot afford it.

Once the son of Zhang was defeated and Wu's nearly [-] iron cavalry was wiped out, the princes of Qi, Song, Lu, Wei, etc. who were still on the sidelines were bound to attack Wu.

Why?

It's just because the Wu army has always been very strong. It has been fighting in the north and south for decades, and it has almost never lost a single defeat.

If the Wu army is defeated by Qi County and the entire army is wiped out, this will greatly strengthen the determination of the countries to resist Wu, and then Wu will fall into a passive state.

Either the success will fall short and the attack on Zhao will be stopped, and a large area of ​​urban land in Hedong, Shangdang, and Yingchuan may be lost.

Either Qingji will continue to increase troops to the front line and have a decisive battle with the coalition forces of the princes.

Can Wu Guo win?
Hard to say.

At least, including Qingji, everyone in the Wu Kingdom is not sure of victory.

Once defeated, the consequences will be unimaginable, and the mighty Wu State is very likely to fall to the brink of collapse and fall apart.

This is exactly where Qingji gets angry with Gong Zizhang.

There is no need for a safe tug-of-war, but the adventurous "central blossom" tactic is necessary. Isn't this killing you?

"Your Majesty, why don't you send someone to send a message on a flying horse, and strictly order Young Master Zhang to go south to Changping to meet Lord Wu Xin, or to retreat to the front line of Fenyang?"

Fan Li said.

"It's too late."

Qing Ji shook his head and said, "Zhao Yang will not let go of this opportunity."

"Wu Zixu's side, fearing that Wu Zhang and his troops will be lost, will launch a full-scale attack, trying to break through Zhao's Changping defense line."

"Because Wu Zhang is alone, disrupting all the previous deployments of my country of Wu... I really want to kill him."

"..."

The queen Ji Pai next to her was trembling with fright.

Of course, as Qingji's bedside person, Queen Ji Kui knew that what Qingji said was angry.

But it also shows the seriousness of the matter.

It is not easy for Qingji to calm down quickly.

If Qi County is defeated, Gong Zizhang may be captured alive, but with Gong Zizhang's arrogant character, he is destined not to become a prisoner of his rank.

Qingji concluded that if the young master Zhang was defeated, he would draw his sword and kill himself. Pity the [-] Wu cavalry...

Qing Ji knew how difficult it was to build an iron cavalry.

"Your Majesty, why don't you send more troops to the Changping battlefield?"

Qingji thought for a while, and finally nodded slightly and said: "An increase of [-] troops, I will personally march. Shaobo, you immediately send someone to send a message on a flying horse, and tell Wu Zixu to follow the original deployment, not to rush forward, but to fight steadily."

"promise!"

Fan Li immediately agreed.

In the final analysis, Qing Ji is still eager to let Wu Jun break through Zhao Guo's Changping defense line as soon as possible.

If not, how could Qingji choose to conscript himself, how could he increase his troops by [-]?
Of course, this may not be able to rescue Gong Zizhang and Wu Jun in Qi County.

Qingji knew how difficult the Battle of Changping was.

Qingji can only hope that Prince Zhang and his troops can stick to Qi County for a few months, or even a few months, otherwise the time left for Wu Jun is simply not enough.

……

Qi County.

Outside the city, tens of thousands of Zhao Jun and Zhongshan Army formed several phalanxes, the momentum is like a rainbow.

The sound of war drums soared into the sky, resounding through the sky.

Zhao Jun's square formation is a mixed formation formed by interspersing the four arms of infantry, crossbows, chariots, and cavalry. The four small formations are connected with each other to form a large square-shaped army formation.

There are 68 figurines in horizontal team robes holding bows and crossbows and carrying quiver in each small formation, a total of 240 people.

This is a vanguard force that uses long-range weapons (bows, crossbows) and wears light combat uniforms.

After that, there are more than 30 columns of 38 soldiers who ride in four-horse chariots and hold spears, spears, halberds, halberds and other long weapons at intervals.

This is the main combat body of a team of warriors fighting and stabbing.

In addition, on both sides and rear of this powerful horizontal and column, there is another column of crossbowmen facing south, north, and west respectively, with a total of more than [-] people. These are the two wings and the rear guard.

It can be seen from this that Zhao Jun's way of arranging troops is not inferior to Wu Jun's at all!

Compared with Zhao Jun, who had a well-organized phalanx, the Zhongshan Army's phalanx was somewhat disorganized, but at least it could put on a show.

"The people from Zhongshan are here too?"

Gong Zizhang's face was a little dignified.

Xu Menchao beside him sighed and said, "My lord, something is wrong. From the point of view of the general, the enemy army outside this city is no less than 5 horses."

"Also, this may be only part of it. I don't know how many Zhao soldiers will rush to Qi County to join the battle."

Hearing this, Gong Zizhang nodded and looked up again.

With sharp eyes, he spotted a big flag in the distance.

There is a pattern of black birds drawn on it, with light red as the background color, two black birds crossed together, and a huge "Zhao" character embroidered in the middle.

"Look at Xu Menchao, is that Zhao Jun's banner?"

"Yes."

Xu Menchao nodded slightly and said: "The general has seen this banner before, and it is Mr. Zhao's exclusive banner. With Mr. Zhao coming in person, I'm afraid this battle will be even more difficult."

"Do you dare to fight?"

Gong Zizhang asked a question.

Hearing this, Xu Menchao couldn't help being stunned for a moment, then swallowed a mouthful of saliva, and said, "My lord, don't do anything stupid. The enemy army outside the city is several times larger than mine, and our army can hold the city. It's really not easy, let alone going out of the city to fight?"

"Humph."

Young Master Zhang snorted, and said slightly dissatisfied: "Xu Menchao, how can you grow others' ambition and destroy your own prestige?"

"Don't forget, our troops are all elite cavalry from Great Wu. Defending the city is not our specialty, our army is good at fighting in the wilderness!"

"Even if the enemy's army is ten times larger than mine, so what?"

"A husband fights, courage also."

"Meet the brave to win on the narrow road!"

"If you are greedy for life and afraid of death, stay in the city and I will lead the army to fight!"

Hearing this, Xu Menchao seemed to have been greatly humiliated, and said indignantly: "My lord, you can insult me, but you cannot insult my Xu Menchao's courage!"

"Even the king knows that I, Xumenchao, are the warriors of the Wu Kingdom!"

"The fame of the last general will not be destroyed once!"

"Young master, the last general invites you to fight!"

"it is good!"

Only then did Gong Zizhang nodded contentedly.

Xu Menchao admitted that what Gong Zizhang said was right.

Defending the city is not what the cavalry is good at.

Now, if Wu Jun wants to make use of his strengths and avoid his weaknesses, he can only have the courage to die and fight heartily with the enemy troops outside the city.

Either you die or I die!
"Xu Menchao listens to the order!"

"The end is here!"

"I ordered you to lead three thousand fine cavalry and go out of the city to fight! If you don't break the enemy army, you will not pay back!"

"The last general..."

Xu Menchao was dumbfounded.

At this time, the generals around couldn't stand it anymore, so they couldn't help but bite the bullet and said: "Young master, the enemy army outside the city is no less than 5. General Xu Menchao led [-] elite cavalry, I am afraid that they are not opponents..."
