"Sir Uncle, the enemy's formation has begun to scatter, and our cavalry has broken into the enemy's circular formation. Is the time for the decisive battle coming, and we need to invest in the thrust and axe soldiers?"

Listening to Guan Fu's words, Jiang Wei shook his head slowly: "The generals of Jin are all very good. Although the defeat of the Jin army at this time has shown signs of defeat, it is still far from the verge of collapse."

It seemed as if to prove Jiang Wei's words on the top of the city. On the east side of the battlefield, the light cavalry holding a big stick in the Jin army's sacrificial attack, although the heavy cavalry of the Han army still broke through the enemy's first line of defense, its speed was obviously slowed down - it was quite dangerous for the heavy cavalry to slow down in the circle where the enemy's infantry dominant.

Moreover, as Yang Zhao's order gradually became effective, the Jin army spearmen who were originally fighting on the front line finally began to gradually respond to the commander's order: retreat.

Of course, this kind of retreat is not a retreat that will turn back, but a retreat of two steps with one shot. Luoyang Central Army can basically do this after more than a year of training by Du Yu.

Although the Han army's spearmen also accelerated their progress under the urging of the bronze whistle of the commander of their side, the Jin army on the opposite side was still effectively resisting. The Han army's spearmen were half less than the others, so the Jin army shrank its front line, but the Han army's spearmen could not achieve full-scale coverage of the attack.

The heavy cavalry opened up the situation, but the casualties on the side began to rise. This made Ma Jie's heart bleeding: the cost of cultivating and maintaining a heavy cavalry is about five times that of a light cavalry!

"Blow the trumpet, the light cavalry followed the general to assault, and the heavy cavalry retreated."

"Here!"

With Ma Jie's order, the light cavalry on the east side of the Han army followed Ma Jie into the sea of ​​people of the Jin army. After a fight, they turned into a large group of light cavalry to wrap the heavy cavalry on their side. Then Ma Jie led the army to a turn, and the cavalry of the Han army drew an arc inside the Jin army's circular formation, and then retreated easily.

"Hu~~" Looking up at the banner above the hill, Hu Lie shouted loudly: "Don't chase, don't chase, the whole army follows me westward, let's deal with another cavalry!"

The heavy cavalry's strike was brutal and short-lived. It was Wen Yang's troops who really bleed the Jin army for a long time.

His 30,000 people rushed in before the gap between the two divisions of the Jin army was closed, and then happily harvested the panicked Jin army archers. In just half an hour, thousands of archers who provided long-range support behind the Jin army's spearmen formation were taken away by Wenyang's team.

After that, Wen Yang did not continue to rush forward: In his opinion, his good brother Ma Jie led the heavy cavalry to assault on the east side of the enemy, and he did not have to add to the spears himself. So he also led his army to draw an arc inside the Jin army's circular formation, changing from west to east to east to west, and attacking the spearmen on the front line of the Jin army from the rear.

This made Yang Zhao, who was commanding on the front line: the Han army's spearmen were attacking faster and faster in the north, and the enemy cavalry were attacked in the south. For a moment, the attacks on both sides made Yang Zhao look depressed and he was a little tempted to give up.

Fortunately, at this time, Jiang Ban still led the infantry team to come up, and soon after that, Hu Lie also led his army to come over.

"Well? Why did Zhongying retreat so quickly?" After briefly making this doubt, Wen Yang quickly pulled the reins: "Brothers, follow me and retreat!"

"Don't stop! Don't stop! Let them go!" Whether it was Jiang Ban, Yang Zhao, or Hu Lie behind, they were all relieved when they saw Wen Yang retreating - the most urgent task now is to rebuild the damaged formation. As long as the formation is not chaotic, there will be some battles.

"Oh~~" Jiang Wei on the top of the city could only sigh when he saw this scene. Then he looked at the sun in the sky: "Send the order, and call the gold to stop the troops."

"Here!"

At the beginning of the first battle in the Battle of Daluze, due to the advantage of the number of spearmen in the Jin army and the intentional temptation of the formation of spearmen in the Han army, the Jin army's spearmen were separated from the sword and shield soldiers in the rear. A crack appeared in the circular formation.

Then Jiang Wei seized this opportunity and sent two wings of cavalry to assault. However, on the one hand, the rear of the Jin army was indeed strong, and the most important thing was that the commanders of the Jin army in all directions were veterans. When facing the critical moment when the formation of this formation was broken, they were all calm and made the most correct response. As a result, although the cavalry of the Han army caused successful killing to the other side, they could not achieve decisive results - causing the collapse of the Jin army. When the spearmen of the Jin army reacted and began to actively restore the formation, in order to avoid excessive casualties of the cavalry of the side, Wen Yang and Ma Jie took the initiative to retreat. After Jiang Wei for a long time, the command style of the new generation of generals of the Han army was also moving closer to Jiang Wei: to win the battle, and unless necessary, do not win heavy losses.

After both sides withdraw their troops and completely break off contact, it was almost the hour of You and the sunset was setting.

"Report to the General, today's battle, the casualties have come out."

"Read it."

"Here, in today's battle, our army's spearmen were killed more than 3,200 and archers were killed more than 700. Due to the diffusion of enemy archers, the rear chariots and axe troops lost more than 30 people. In terms of cavalry, heavy cavalry lost more than 200 people, and 180 war horses failed to return. Light cavalry lost more than 980 people. In terms of wounded soldiers, more than 1,000 people were seriously injured and more than 3,000 people were slightly injured. Archers, chariots and axe soldiers were injured by arrows. However, the problem of being injured by arrows is not big and does not affect subsequent battles."

"Good, thank you for your hard work, let's go."

"Here."

"General, our army did not suffer much in today's battle, but the losses we caused to the enemy are at least 20,000. So, tomorrow, we will definitely be able to defeat the enemy."

"Hahaha, Zhongying is very ambitious. However, in my opinion, we can't fight tomorrow."

"Oh? Why is this?"

"If I'm not guessing correctly, Chen Xiuyuan will withdraw his troops tonight."

"ah?"

"Everyone, after Si Wencao's recent inquiry, we have already made it clear. Chen Xiuyuan did not want to bring the 120,000 Jin troops out of the built Renxian defense line to fight with us. This battle was forced by the emperor of Jin State. When he arrived here, he had a big battle with us and was defeated. He had an explanation to the emperor of Jin State, that is. Chen Xiuyuan received the true teachings of Sima Zhongda. He did not like field battles, but liked to shrink into the solid city defense to fight against our army."

"Then general, should we send troops to pursue tonight?"

"Haha, there is no need for this. The more than 100,000 troops launched a field battle in the middle of the night? No matter how thorough we arranged this, there will be chaos in the future. Everyone should know that our spearmen will not have anything without the formation. As for arranging the sudden generals at night attacks? Well, I watched the battle today, and I only think that the generals of the Jin army at all levels are very good, and they will respond in an orderly manner even when facing the crisis. Therefore, if there are too many soldiers, there will be chaos, and our army will suffer a lot. If there are too few soldiers, it will not play a big role. Therefore, let's forget about the night attack."

"Uh... we will accept the order. Just the general, can we just let the enemy go away? Although our army will definitely be able to take over the defense line of Renxian County, if we have the opportunity to annihilate the enemy in the wild, why do we have to attack the city?"

"Of course, I am not going to let this Jin army go back." Jiang Wei smiled slightly: "Walking southeast from here is thirty miles southeast is the north bank of Mainland Ze. The Jin army has camps there. If I expected it, Chen Xiuyuan was going to retreat there tonight and then withdraw the troops based on Mainland Ze's waterway."

"That?"

"But it is so easy to withdraw troops in front of the enemy? There are always people who cut off the rear? There are fewer people who cut off the rear, but they cannot stop our army's advance. There are more people who cut off the rear, so how can we block our army's subsequent attacks if there are fewer people returning to the defense line of Ren County? Moreover, not everyone can do such a battle against the backstop. A few days ago, Wang Shizhi faced the backstops of the Grand Sima in Zhaoyuze, so didn't he escape first?"

"Ah? Hahahaha, General Gao Jian."

"Send the order now!"

"We are waiting for the general to issue the order!"

"The gunmen will rest for one day today, and the axe team will be in front of each other. If the enemy withdraws, there is no need to attack. Just follow the opponent far away. After tomorrow and tomorrow, the entire army will leave the Yang family and pursue the enemy! Our army will defeat this main force of Jin on the north bank of Zebei, mainland!"

"Here!"
Chapter completed!
