Unable to break out of Jueqingshan, the Tiger Army had no choice but to risk their lives and fight to the death.
Now the Huben army has suffered heavy casualties, and the number of combatable troops is less than half of its original number. But even so, when the Huben army starts to fight with all its strength, its combat effectiveness cannot be underestimated.
The fight between the two sides was cruel and tragic. On the battlefield, soldiers from both sides fell to the ground in groups. The corpses on the ground piled up like mountains. Blood flowed along the cracks in the rocks from the depths of the Jueqing Mountain to the outside of the mountain.
Although the Pingyuan Army had the upper hand, it also suffered heavy casualties in the mopping up battle against the Huben Army. In less than half an hour of fighting, most of the three regiments that advanced had been destroyed and were no longer organized. In the end, they had no choice but to retreat.
, and several other regiments stepped up to continue the battle.
There are many soldiers in the plains, and they can be replaced in time. However, the current Tiger and Ben army are losing one dead and one less, and the number of troops is getting smaller and smaller. At the end of the battle, the Mo army around Nanyan is less than 2,000 including generals, and looking around
, all are Feng troops, they have been surrounded by people on three levels inside and three levels outside, and there is no way to get through.
At this time, Xiao Muqing ordered the entire army to stop attacking. Then, protected by generals Wu Guang and Jiang Fan, he slowly walked out of the Feng Army crowd and shouted to the Mo Army in the encirclement: "Where is General Nan?"
The few remaining Mo Jun soldiers were lifeless. No expression could be seen on their numb faces. Even their eyes had lost their charm, and there was only a gray despair. After Xiao Muqing finished asking, there was no answer for a long time. After a while,
Only one person stepped out of the crowd. Even in a desperate situation, this person still straightened his back. He stood in front of the crowd and shouted loudly: "Nanyan is here!"
Xiao Muqing raised his head, squinted his eyes, and looked up and down at the person who was speaking. His body and face were stained with blood, and the cloak on his back was covered with scratches and holes. His appearance was very embarrassing. It took Xiao Muqing a while to recognize this person.
It was indeed Nan Yan. He smiled slightly, cupped his hands and said, "General Nan, you have lost this battle!"
Nan Yan raised his head, suddenly burst into laughter, and said: "Xiao Muqing, you tried to trick me, I'm not convinced. If we fight openly on the battlefield, your Pingyuan Army will definitely not be my Tiger Army..."
Before he could finish his words, Xiao Muqing waved his hands repeatedly and said: "As the saying goes, Taoist soldiers never tire of deceit. Doesn't General Nan not understand this truth?" After a pause, he suppressed his smile and said seriously: "Shao Fang is ignorant and ignorant, and the throne was obtained unfairly.
In order to protect his status, he brutalized the Mo King family, and people and gods were outraged. In my opinion, General Nan is a man who understands righteousness, why must he protect a common man like Shao Fang? Now Mo Gong Shao Jun has fled to our Feng Kingdom, the emperor
I have personally been crowned King Mo, and good birds choose trees to roost in. General Nan should protect his orthodoxy and stop helping traitors!"
"Shut up!" Nan Yan shouted, interrupting Xiao Muqing, and sneered: "Xiao Muqing, what you say is really better than what you sing! Who doesn't know that the emperor is willing to canonize Shao Jun only because of Tang Yin, who is a traitor?
If you want to divide our country of Mo and make our people kill each other, go back and tell Tang Yin to stop dreaming. Our country of Mo has only one king, and our people only respect one king! Today, although I am defeated, I cannot
As long as the army is not destroyed, one day, the king will lead his army to the north to defeat the traitors like you!"
It's hard to persuade a damn devil with good words! Xiao Muqing sighed secretly and said quietly: "I pointed out a clear path for General Nan, but if he doesn't listen, General Nan is seeking his own death and will be infamy for eternity!"
"Haha——" Nan Yan laughed wildly, raised the sword in his hand, pointed at Xiao Muqing, and shouted: "If I survive today, the morale of our army will be shaken, and no one will go into battle with the intention of dying; if I die today, our army will
We will share the same hatred with you and the wind thieves, so why should I die?!" As he spoke, Nan Yan raised his sword high, turned around and shouted at the remaining soldiers of the Huben Army: "Brothers, follow me and charge to kill the enemy!
kill--"
"kill--"
Nan Yan took the lead and charged at the front. The officers and soldiers of the Huben Army, who had less than 2,000 men left, were inspired by him, shouted in unison, and followed Nan Yan to rush towards Xiao Muqing.
Alas! Xiao Muqing sighed in his heart. Although Nan Yan was arrogant and arrogant, he was still a strong-willed man. It was a pity that he had different paths and could not work together. His masters, no wonder he was so ruthless. He took a deep breath and slowly
He raised his hand, paused in the air for a moment, then suddenly dropped it forward and shouted: "Fire the arrow!"
Following his order, the Feng army camp fired a volley of arrows, and the dense flying arrows shot towards the Tiger army from all directions like raindrops.
Nan Yan, who was at the forefront, bore the brunt of the attack. He had practiced spiritual martial arts, but after such a long period of fierce fighting, there was not much spiritual energy left. Now he didn't even have spiritual armor on his body, and his body was completely exposed to the rain of arrows. As he pounced,
There was a muffled sound, and Nan Yan was hit by several arrows and fell on his back. The officers and soldiers of the Huben Army behind him were not much better. They were all knocked to the ground by arrows, and then were hit by the next arrow.
Covered by arrows...
In the blink of an eye, all the two thousand Mo troops on the battlefield disappeared, not even the bodies could be seen, and only the black eagle feathers were left on the ground.
Nan Yan was also covered with arrows all over his body. He was still breathing. He knelt down on the ground and gritted his teeth to prevent himself from falling to the ground. Blood flowed from the corners of his mouth and said intermittently: "How can a dignified general of Mo State die from the wind thief?"
On my hand..." As he spoke, he used all his strength to put the sword across his neck and wiped it down hard.
This battle at Jueqingshan ended with the entire Hu Ben army being annihilated and Nanyan Hengjian committing suicide. Of course, it was just an end, but it was far from over.
The demise of the Huben Army was certainly related to Nan Yan's high self-esteem and underestimation of the enemy, but we also have to admit that Xiao Muqing's control over the enemy's psychology has reached a superb level.
He first deceived the enemy and made the Huben army think that he was a arrogant soldier. Then he deliberately showed weakness and allowed the Huben army to successfully steal the camp and burned his own fake granary. Then he withdrew his troops and led the Huben army into the cavalry's desperate place in Jueqingshan.
, and finally, it was a fatal blow to the Tiger Army.
Xiao Muqing's strategy is linked to each other, and the actions he takes are all reasonable and logical. As long as the opponent is confused by him at the beginning, he will completely lead him around.
Nan Yan can also be regarded as a famous general in the Mo Kingdom, but he still suffered a big loss against Xiao Muqing. Not only did he lose his life, but the most brave and capable cavalry regiment in the Mo Kingdom, the Tiger Ben Army, was completely wiped out.
However, Xiao Muqing calculated everything, but one factor still came out, and that was Gongsun Yao, the guard of Jinshi City.
Gongsun Yao was not necessarily more capable than Nan Yan, but he was cautious and suspicious by nature. He believed that the retreat of the Pingyuan Army was a trick, and sent people to remind Nan Yan not to pursue the enemy, but Nan Yan did not listen to him. Gongsun Yao
He himself gathered all the defenders of Jinshi City and went to meet the Huben army.
By the time all the defenders from the three places in Jinshi City had gathered together, it was already too late to rush towards Jueqing Mountain. When they were about to arrive at Jueqing Mountain, the battle here had ended. The Pingyuan Army was cleaning up the battlefield and cleaning up the mess, and the Huben Army set out to fight.
The entire nine legions were all lost in Jueqingshan.
Upon hearing the news that the entire Huben Army had been wiped out, Gongsun Yao felt as if he was struck by five thunders. The other Mo generals were also dumbfounded. Normally speaking, the combat effectiveness of the Huben Army was much stronger than that of their 150,000 infantrymen, but even the Huben Army
They were all defeated at the hands of the Pingyuan Army, and they were even more helpless. If they had been replaced by another commander, they would have retreated hastily, retreated into the city, relied on the city defense to resist the wind army, and defended Jinshi City. But Gongsun Yao made a surprising move.
Unexpectedly, the whole army sealed the mountain pass and blocked the Feng army inside the mountain.
When the generals of the Mo army heard such an order, they all grinned secretly. The Huben army had been defeated. Can we still be the opponent of the Feng army?
Gongsun Yao had his own explanation. Although the Huben army was completely wiped out, its combat effectiveness was there. Even if the Feng army won, it would be a disastrous victory, and its combat effectiveness would be severely reduced. If we don't take this opportunity to trap the Feng army,
Let the Feng army retreat. If they come back in the future, it will definitely be difficult to save Jinshi City. Instead of doing this, it is better to risk a battle. If it fails, the worst is to retreat back to the city. If it succeeds, it will not only relieve the danger of Jinshi City, but also avenge Huben.
The hatred of annihilating the entire army can also greatly boost the morale of the country and severely dampen the spirit of the country.
His decision was too fatal for the Pingyuan Army. Gongsun Yao's guess was correct. Although the battle between the Pingyuan Army and the Huben Army was won, it was not without paying a price. After the battle, the four regiments of the Pingyuan Army were defeated.
It was no longer organized, with thirty to forty thousand casualties. The whole army was exhausted and its combat power was greatly reduced.
Xiao Muqing knew his own situation very well. When he heard that a large number of Mo troops had arrived and blocked the mountain pass, his first reaction was to break out immediately. Xiao Muqing also did the same. He took out those with the least casualties.
The two corps were at the front, led by Wu Guang and Jiang Fan personally, and the whole army broke out from the mountain.
It may not be possible for the Mo army in Jinshi City to confront the Pingyuan army head-on, but it is still possible if the 150,000 soldiers are on the defensive.
During the battle between the two sides, Wu Guang and Jiang Fan broke into the depths of the Mo army several times, but when they looked back, they found that the soldiers behind them could not keep up at all and were blocked from the camp by the huge Mo army. Wu Guang and Jiang Fan had no choice but to
He was able to fight back, join his brothers, and then continue to charge towards the enemy. However, the charge did not last long, and the Pingyuan Army soldiers behind were blocked by the enemy. This was repeated several times, but not only failed to charge out, Jiang Fan and Wu Guang had already
They were exhausted and the Pingyuan Army also suffered heavy casualties.
Xiao Muqing, who was watching the battle, took a breath when he saw this scene. The commander of the Mo army in front of him was extremely calm. He only defended but did not attack, and there were so many troops. It would be too difficult for his own side to rush out. He was afraid that if he continued to fight, the casualties of his own soldiers would be high.
Even worse, Xiao Muqing hurriedly ordered the entire army to stop breaking out and retreat deep into Jueqing Mountain.
