Chu generals Doulian and Niyu quickly led their troops to the middle of the battlefield, causing many Wei troops who had been wandering here to watch the battle to scold their cavalry and give way.
These Wei army's scolds, including those of the coalition forces, are "non-combatants" in this battle. They are only responsible for communicating any changes on the battlefield to the command systems of both sides - of course, they can fight, such as waiting for opportunities to snipe the opponent.
However, under normal circumstances, the scolding of the cavalry on both sides still maintains a peaceful situation. After all, they are the eyes and ears of the generals on both sides, and the heavy responsibilities they shoulder are much more important than going into battle to kill the enemy.
The Chu generals fought against Lian, and the Chu army led by Niyu was far more than 20,000. The "twenty thousand" soldiers told by the messenger to Xiang Kuan referred to the Fuli Army under Xiang Mo's command, which referred to the regular army, except for the regular army.
In addition, there are about 50,000 soldiers recruited to serve as the vanguard.
Or simply put, these 50,000 people are simply cannon fodder to consume Wei Fang's Luoyang Imperial Guards.
I saw the 50,000 grain-recruited troops, under the plundering formation of 20,000 regular troops under the command of General Dou Lian and Niyu, rushing through the midfield in a chaotic manner and heading straight towards the main army of Wei's former army.
Seeing this, Xiang Kuan immediately ordered: "The whole army attacks and penetrates Li Lin's army! ...Suddenly kill them!"
Immediately, the tens of thousands of Zhaoguan Chu troops immediately got rid of Li Lin's army that was entangled with them, accelerated their pace, and marched hand in hand with the 50,000 grain recruits in the middle, and pressed forward against the main force of the Wei army.
Zhao Run's judgment was very accurate. Xiang Juan didn't even bother to defeat the mob under Li Lin. His target was always the main force of the Wei army - or in other words, the core soul of the Wei army, King Zhao Run himself.
The reaction of the Wei soldiers under Wei general Li Lin was exactly as Zhao Run had predicted. When they saw that the Zhaoguan Chu army had abandoned them and attacked their main formation, they were shocked and angry, and actually turned around and pursued them.
The Zhaoguan Army under Xiang Kuan completely exposed their backs to the coalition forces.
I have to say that this is definitely a scene seeking death on the battlefield. No, even Li Lin knew the danger involved and shouted at the top of his lungs: "Don't pursue! Don't pursue! Reorganize the formation! Reorganize the formation!"
However, except for the Wei soldiers within a radius of about tens of feet around him, they could still hear his roar and obeyed the order to gather around Li Lin again, while more other Wei soldiers ran and pursued desperately. Maybe in their eyes
, or there is only one enemy left in their minds, the "Zhaoguan Chu Army", so that almost no one can calm down and think about it. At this time, there are hundreds of thousands of coalition troops watching from a distance, as if they are exposing their backs to those
Is this appropriate in front of the enemy?
Perhaps this is the biggest gap between the rigorously trained regular army and the temporary militiamen - that is, it does not lie in whether they are brave or not, but in whether they have adapted to using "military orders that cannot be violated" to replace their own judgment.
fighting style.
Seeing this scene, even Xiang Mo felt a little funny.
Because the Wei soldiers in Li Lin's army opposite him seemed to him to be too amateurish. Perhaps the only difference between these Wei soldiers and the general mob was that they had higher morale and were not afraid of death, that's all.
"It's not bad to just eat the Wei army's right-wing front army in one go..."
Xiang Mo thought for a while and immediately ordered: "Instruct Wu Qi, who is on the left wing of the central army, to lead his Dongou army to attack and attack the Wei army under Wei general Li Lin! ... In addition, send someone to report the matter to the central army.
Tian Dan."
After all, he is the former army commander, and Wu Qi is the left wing of the Chinese army. Under normal circumstances, the Chinese army commander Tian Danlai is needed to give orders to Wu Qi - of course, considering that the fighter plane disappears in a blink of an eye, in special circumstances like this, Xiang
You can also command Wu Qi's army beyond his authority, but you need to notify Tian Dan both publicly and privately.
However, he believed that when Tian Dan learned about the current situation of Wei soldiers under Wei general Li Lin, he would not mind his overstepping of authority.
Sure enough, Tian Dan did not feel dissatisfied after learning about the incident. On the contrary, he thought Xiang Mo's judgment was very accurate.
But to Xiang Mo and Tian Dan's surprise, the Dongou Army of the left center army never took any action, as if it had not received Xiang Mo's order.
What's going on?
Xiang Mo immediately sent someone to ask the Yue general Wu Qi for the reason. Unexpectedly, Wu Qi sent someone to explain the reason just after sending the messenger: "Inform General Xiang Mo, traces of Wei cavalry were found in the south, and there are suspected to be tens of thousands of them."
Judging from the flags, the crowd seems to be the Jijiao cavalry under Wei general Bosile."
"What?"
Xiang Mo was stunned when he heard this.
Of course he knew about the existence of the Jiejiao cavalry under Wei General Bosile. In fact, the land food routes of his coalition were frequently attacked because of these damn Jie tribesmen.
Even in today's decisive battle, the coalition sentry cavalry patrolling and guarding the surrounding area had already reported the sneaky actions of these Jiejiao cavalry to the coalition generals.
"Bosile's horned cavalry, are they planning to attack our army?"
Xiang Mo turned his head and looked south, thinking deeply in his heart.
To be fair, he is not very afraid of those Jiejiao cavalry - from a strategic perspective, these Jiejiao cavalry that come and go like the wind are indeed a headache, but if it is placed on a frontal battlefield, especially with today's coalition forces and
In the decisive battle of the Wei army, even though Bosile had as many as 30,000 to 40,000 cavalrymen, they were not enough to scare Xiang Mo.
In the final analysis, the Jiejiao cavalry is just a nomadic cavalry of the grassland people. This kind of cavalry is good at sneak attacks and harassment. But if these cavalry launch a surprise attack against a coalition army that is several times or more than ten times their size, it will definitely be these cavalry who are unlucky in the end. After all,
The coalition forces have enough troops, even if they use human lives, they can kill this cavalry.
After all, the Jiejiao cavalry is not the Youma heavy cavalry of the Wei State, or the Daijun heavy cavalry of Korea, and they do not have the ability to determine the outcome of this war involving hundreds of thousands or millions of people.
Of course, the premise is that the coalition forces are well prepared. If all the elite troops come out, there is no guarantee that the Jiejiao cavalry will penetrate the formation and kill them back and forth.
In a word, as long as the cavalry can be blocked and the cavalry cannot take advantage of its mobility, the lethality of a cavalry may not be higher than that of an infantryman; but if the cavalry cannot be blocked, then the entire army may be killed by the cavalry.
wear.
The Dongou Army of the Yue Kingdom was obviously elite enough to stop the Jiejiao Cavalry, while the Liangsu soldiers were a ragtag group of people who would be killed back and forth by the Jiejiao Cavalry.
Considering this, Xiang Mo couldn't help but hesitate.
"In this case, Dongou's army cannot move for the time being... we can only send food and recruit troops."
Thinking of this, Xiang Mo ordered: "Send an order to Wu Qi and order him to... hold his troops temporarily and be wary of the cavalry." After that, he shouted again: "Where is "Yu Ji"?"
As soon as he finished speaking, a general in his thirties came from the side and rode out. He cupped his fists and said, "The general is here!"
Like "圜鱼", Yu Ji is also a young general under Xiang Mo. He once participated in the "Four Kingdoms' Conquest of Chu" at a young age and also participated in the "War against Lu". He is the youngest member of the Chu Kingdom.
A brave general.
Xiang Mo said in a deep voice: "I order you to attack Li Lin's army in front. In addition to your own troops, I will send another 30,000 grain soldiers to help you. I hope you can defeat Li Lin's army as soon as possible and open the way!"
"Follow the order!"
Yu Ji cupped his fists and accepted the order, then rode away.
A moment later, another army sprang out from the main position of the coalition's former army and headed straight for Wei General Li Lin's position.
At this time, to the south of the coalition, about a mile away from the battlefield, Wei General Bosile was sitting on his horse with his arms folded, calmly looking at the battlefield in front of him.
At this time, I was thinking about a question, that is, after receiving the order from Wei King Zhao Run, why did he subconsciously say the words "The last general will receive the order" instead of waiting and watching until it was confirmed that Wei Guo would win, and then he would take the order.
His own people were pressing down on Wei.
"Is it because I firmly believe that King Zhao Run of Wei can eventually defeat the coalition forces of other countries? Or... no, I am the leader of the Jie tribe, and I am just temporarily under the wings of Wei. Even if King Wei gives me an official title..."
Bosile frowned and thought.
At this time, the captain "Nuhar" beside him pointed to the battlefield and said: "Supervisor, that damn Dongou army has taken action!"
Bosile came back to his senses. After watching carefully for a while, he shook his head and said: "No, that is not the Dongou Army, it is just the Chu Army. The Dongou Army is temporarily..." At this point, he suddenly felt something in his heart and asked Nu
Haer said: "Nuhar, that Chu army is obviously heading towards the Wei army's right-wing front army (Li Lin's tribe). The Wei army there is chasing Xiang Kuan's army, and it is very likely that it will be defeated by this Chu army. You say,
Do you want me to help him? After all, King Wei just ordered us to contain the Dongou army..."
"Huh?"
Captain Nuhar looked at Bosile in confusion, then lowered his voice and asked carefully: "Guardian, don't you want Wei to win?"
"It's not that I don't hope..." Bosile said melancholy: "It's just that if Wei wins this battle, our Jie clan may never be able to escape from Wei."
"Get rid of? Why?" Nuhar said subconsciously, and saw Bosile turned his head suddenly, looking at him with some surprise and some inexplicable. This made Nuhal immediately realize that he had said the wrong thing, and he hesitated.
He said quietly: "No, that's not what I meant. I just feel that the Wei State does not reject us. Even those guys from the Yi tribe have been ennobled by the Wei State, and the people of my tribe have to abide by the Wei State's rules."
Despite the law, the life of the tribe is actually better than it was more than ten years ago..."
Perhaps it was because Bosile was staring at him intently, but Nuhar seemed a little guilty, lowering his head and not daring to look into Bosile's eyes.
Just when he was worrying about gains and losses, he saw Bosile burst out laughing, with a bit of melancholy in his laughter.
"Yes, you are right, why do you want to get rid of it?"
Under Nuhar's astonished eyes, Bosile took a deep breath, and couldn't help but recall the words of his adoptive father Bitatu before his death: Our family will never have the opportunity to have true freedom again.
!
Nearly twenty years later, the words of Bitatu, the former chief of the Jiejiao Tribe, were verified. The Jie people had gradually become accustomed to being ruled by the Wei State, and the interests of the Jie people had long since become inseparable from the Wei State.
Shaking his head secretly, Bosile suddenly raised his hand and pointed at the army led by Chu general Yu Ji, and ordered in a deep voice: "Nuhar, go and intercept that Chu army!"
Captain Nuhar was stunned for a moment, then immediately clasped his fists and said: "General, I will obey the order!"
"..."
I didn’t pay attention to it on weekdays, but at this moment Bosile noticed that the Jie people had actually accepted a lot of Wei culture without knowing it. Perhaps after a few or more than a dozen generations, their Jie people would completely
Assimilated by the Wei people, the "Jie" nation gradually became history.
If their descendants are willing, they may retain some of their Jie tribe's customs, but that's all.
"Well, now is not the time to think about this... Today is the day to avenge Hecha Haqi, Hagar, and the many warriors of our Jie tribe who sacrificed their lives in this battle!"
Bosile took a deep breath, his face gradually became tense, and his eyes were fixed on the battlefield in front of him.
"What I remember...the Dongou Army, and Xiang Juan!"
