The Qin Army's entire team was very fast, or in other words, their 30,000 cavalry had been divided into three groups as planned. In the plain behind the Xiyan Army's camp, the sky was filled with smoke and dust, and the sound of horse hooves shook the heaven and earth.
With the roar of the war drums and the wild shouts of the knights, although there were not many people and horses visible, the momentum was very scary. Following the strong north wind, the smoke and dust covered the sky, covering the Yan Army in a radius of about ten miles.
From the rear of the camp, rushing toward us, and following this puff of smoke, came bursts of dense arrow rain, hitting the fences of the camp and the partitions of the archery towers everywhere.
In the smoke and dust, on a small barren hill, Li Bian was riding a tall horse and stationed here. This location was very good, and he could clearly see every move in the Yan army's camp, which was about three miles away.
The distance makes this location very safe.
A deputy general said excitedly: "General Li, the Yan thieves have really come out in force to attack Chang'an City. There is no defense in this camp. I think we can attack directly!"
Another military academy had a smile on its face: "Yes, yes, General Song is right. This time Xiyan attacked the city, but he spent all his money on it. In the past two years, he has seized a large number of sophisticated ordnance and armor from our army."
, we are all in this advancing camp now, as long as we rush in, we will be powerful!"
Li Bian pursed his lips and said in a deep voice: "No matter how rich the Xiyan army is, can it be as rich as our Daqin army? The King of Heaven has given us all the weapons we need, so why do we need to capture the enemy? What do you think?
Yes."
The Song general who spoke at the beginning muttered in a low voice: "Who doesn't know that the equipment of the Qin Dynasty is now given priority to Yang Ding and the Qiuchi Di tribe. We are all Han soldiers and sons of good families in the Guanzhong area. Although the King of Heaven is kind,
There is something different about closeness. You see, we Han people can only be light cavalry, and our horses cannot wear armor, but Yang Ding can even arm his horses to the teeth. The capture of this battlefield, according to the iron law of the Qin Dynasty, belongs to us.
Whatever we have, let’s rush into the camp first, as many things are our own!”
A trace of hesitation flashed in Li Bian's eyes: "It's just that when the Xiyan army attacks the city, the camp cannot be completely defenseless. The art of war has it that you should not enter the camp at any time. I don't believe that it is so easy to break into their camp."
General Song turned back to look at the second military academy who spoke, and said: "Liu Canjun, you are well-informed and well versed in the art of war. Tell us whether we can enter this camp!"
Military Colonel Liu was a white-faced scholar in his thirties. He was still sweating in his leather armor. Obviously, joining the army was not his normal state. He gasped and took out a small mask from his arms.
Folding fan, fanning the wind, said: "This, this camp is not their main camp along the Weishui River, but a temporary advance base set up to attack the city. There will not be too strong a defense. If, if they
If we have enough troops, we would rather go out to fight in formation than rely on this camp, because this temporary camp is not only not strong, but also not fireproof. As long as our army rushes in and sets fire everywhere, if the enemy's rear catches fire, the morale of the army will be shaken.
, even the siege troops in front will all collapse."
Li Bian perked up and said: "That is to say, if the enemy does not come out to fight, does it mean that he is really unprepared?"
Liu Canjun nodded with certainty: "Yes, when I studied the art of war with Wang Lugong, he personally told me this. The temporary camp is not suitable for holding. If the Yan army is on guard, they should form an array behind the camp at this time.
Now, it’s like this..."
Before he finished speaking, he only heard the sound of gongs and drums ringing out from the camp. Several horns sounded, and the camp gate opened wide. A large number of Xiyan sergeants rushed out from more than a dozen camp gates, and quickly
The troops began to form formation behind the camp.
Liu Canjun's face was pale and his voice was trembling: "How could it be, how could it be like this? Could it be that Yan Jun's reinforcements have arrived?"
Li Bian frowned when the Yan army left the camp, but as the follow-up troops of the Yan army rushed out, his brows gradually relaxed. When all the enemy troops came out, he turned to laugh: "
That’s it, everyone, prepare to form formations and attack the enemy camp!”
General Song's expression changed. Together with Liu Canjun and more than ten generals on one side, he looked at Li Bian in surprise and said, "General Li, you did not give the wrong order. The Yan army is forming a formation, which means that they
You are on guard, do you still want to attack the camp at this time?"
Li Bian smiled and raised his riding whip, pointed it directly at the enemy troops in formation, and said: "Gentlemen, please take a look, although the enemy troops and horses are fairly equipped, most of them have leather armor and long spears, and some of them are in the lead."
These are wearing iron armor, but look at how out of breath they are running, and look at the faces of these people. They are all wrinkled guys in their forties or fifties, and some are limping and disabled with missing arms and legs.
, even though these people were hiding in the back row, they could still see clearly."
Everyone took a closer look, and Liu Canjun shouted: "Oh, it's just like General Li said, they are all old, weak, sick and disabled. We almost got deceived!"
Li Bian laughed: "These can't be the troops returning to support from the Yan army, but the heavy supplies of troops left behind in the camp, as well as the old, weak, sick and disabled. Seeing our army coming, they knew they had to come out, otherwise they would be killed at a glance.
It would make us see that this was an empty camp, so we bit the bullet, put on armor and went out to form an array, trying to delay the time. Unfortunately, they couldn't fool me, Li Bian, and gave the order to stop raising dust. Within half a quarter of an hour,
I want to launch an attack across the board. Let the auxiliary cavalry tie up their long spears and charge first. Then the main cavalry will continue to follow up. After defeating the enemy, they will chase the defeated soldiers and rush into the camp. Remember, set fire everywhere and shout that the Yan army has been defeated!
Let’s also give him a Feishui victory!”
After the Yan army's formation, Han Yan changed into the clothes of a soldier and hid on an inconspicuous arrow tower. He watched nervously as the smoke and dust on the opposite side began to gradually subside. In the distance, he could vaguely see the Qin army's cavalry starting to form formation.
Either a team of more than fifty people, or a team of seventy or eighty people, they are all assault teams with a triangular shape. The cavalry in the front row are wearing iron armor and holding long spears. Although the horses are not armored, the knights sitting on the horses are
, each one wearing a ghost mask, with a ferocious look, the captains of each team were galloping back and forth in front of the formation, shouting, wherever they passed, there were shouts of mountains and tsunamis, all with one rhythmic voice: "The Xianbei thieves are coming soon
Just die, the Xianbei thieves will die immediately!"
Next to Han Yan, a deputy general was sweating nervously: "General, can we withstand the attack of the enemy's cavalry? Can we just rely on these old, weak and remnant troops?"
Han Yan laughed and said: "It doesn't matter, just hold on for half an hour. The right general is mobilizing elite troops to come for reinforcements. Remember, it's half an hour! I'm going to inspect the front army now. I'll leave this to you, General Duan!"
