A leaf is blinded and cannot see Mount Tai. Sometimes, even the smartest person will make big mistakes in certain specific situations, and he will never find out what he is wrong until the consequences appear.

This is how Pang Wanchun was this time. When he led his army into the Song army formation, he had only two thoughts in his mind. One was to kill Sun Tu and other major generals, and the other was to shoot off the lights above, so that the Song army could no longer systematically launch an attack on its subordinates. Because only in this way can he give full play to his advantage of more troops and reverse the situation again.

So half of the seven arrows were aimed at the lights above. But obviously, Pang Wanchun ignored the most critical point - it was about to dawn, and even if the lights were broken, the Song army could change the flag in time to command again!

While he led his army to break through the bloody battle, the sky gradually brightened, and in the end it was even more sunny. There was no light. The central military office of the Song army had raised a flag and continued to command the army to advance and retreat from a long distance. It can be said that his adventure and killing, with thousands of subordinates, even he was seriously injured, but the Song army lost control for a moment. With dawn, the Song army had already stabilized its position and its offensive became more fierce. It was really a waste of effort!

It was precisely because of the sudden understanding that Pang Wanchun was extremely energetic and finally caused several wounds on his body to collapse and faint. In fact, he was lucky. If he had figured out the key earlier, as long as he suddenly fell into a coma in the Song army formation, he would probably die here.

But even so, after seeing his commander vomiting blood, the Wu soldiers around him were already in a state of chaos. Seeing that the Song army attacked again, they had no desire to resist. They immediately protected Pang Wanchun and retreated. This retreat completely broke the entire battle situation of subtle balance. Sun Tu, who was on a high place, immediately seized the flaws here and immediately ordered the army and horses to break into the enemy formation from this side to break the entire line of defense of the Wu army and break it into two halves. It is difficult to govern.

Before, when Pang Wanchun failed to make a sneak attack and flee, Sun Tu actually thought of taking people to pursue him. But after only a few steps, he quickly came to his senses. He was the chief general of the Shandong Army and had a heavy responsibility. He could not just rush to the death like an ordinary general. He was responsible for taking charge of the central army, dispatching troops, and constantly expanding the results of the battle. So immediately, he pulled back and responded quickly, allowing people to raise the banner used by the day to a higher place to continue commanding the battle.

Sun Tu's decision was obviously extremely wise and gained a lot in the subsequent battle. Now that he found the weakness of the Wu army, he naturally would not miss the opportunity. At the same time, his mind turned rapidly, guessing why the enemy on that side suddenly became so vulnerable.

In just a moment, a bold guess came out of his mind. Although he didn't know whether it was correct, he knew that this was the key to a complete victory. He turned around and shouted to more than a dozen messengers around him: "You run up the road, run all the way, shouting to me all the way: Pang Wanchun is dead, and the anti-army will be defeated! Go quickly!"

Just now, Sun Tu shot the arrow into Pang Wanchun's body with his own hands, and then he saw Dong Ping's continued pursuit. He believed that with the combat power of Dong Ping and other subordinates, he would definitely bring considerable damage to Pang Wanchun, who was seriously injured. Even if he could not really kill him, it would be difficult to command the battle again.

The enemy's retreat and chaos confirm this. Taking this opportunity to spread this unknown news, which would inevitably completely disrupt the morale of the Wu army and boost his morale. Even if Pang Wanchun showed his face later, it would not be so easy to stabilize the morale of the army for a while. Such a strategy that is beneficial but not harmful will naturally be implemented immediately.

The messengers immediately took the order, and then quickly ran forward. While running, they shouted loudly: "Pang Wanchun is dead! The anti-army will be defeated! Pang Wanchun is dead! The anti-army will be defeated!" These people were all loud and their roars could be heard from experts who traveled several miles. Although they were on the battlefield where the sound of killing was shook the sky, their screams still spread rapidly and fell into the ears of the enemy and our soldiers.

Many Song army soldiers were indeed energetic after hearing the roar and fought harder, but Wu army was suspicious. When they were distracted, they could only be defeated step by step, and casualties increased rapidly. Some smart-minded Song army soldiers immediately followed suit and shouted similar words, while rushing forward, shouting: "Pang Wanchun is dead, our army will win, and Huzhou will be defeated!"

At the beginning, only a few hundred people were calling this, but as the victory continued to expand, many generals reacted and roared repeatedly, and finally gathered the roars of thousands of Song troops. There were endless and clear voices on the battlefield: "Pang Wanchun is dead..."

Although the two armies fought, although the command methods of their respective generals and the heroic fighting of the soldiers below, after all, the most important thing is the competition of morale and confidence between the two armies. An army that was breathless and panicked, even if they could fight fiercely in the past, they would become a mob in the face of chaos in the morale of the army.

Thousands of years ago, the Chu-Han clashed, and the last battle at Gaixia was when the enemy was surrounded by enemies and disrupted the morale of the enemy. The Han army gave the Chu army a final fatal blow, causing it to collapse completely. Today, outside the city of Huzhou, an old scene of that year replayed.

Amid the roar of "Pang Wanchun is dead" like a tsunami, and when the commander of his commander did not show up for a long time to refute, the Wu army was in a state of confusion. Perhaps some generals wanted to lead the army to resist, perhaps some people were still suspicious, but panic and despair had spread rapidly. When facing the Song army who were fighting on the whole line, they had completely lost the ability to resist. With just one meeting, many people turned around and ran away. Even if the Song army was stabbed and fell from the rear, they could not change their idea of ​​escaping.

The victory and defeat were already separated at this moment. Nearly 50,000 Wu troops, who were fighting against the city, collapsed. More than 80% of the troops had no intention of resisting, and only had the idea of ​​escaping. They didn't care about their own robes in front of them and behind them. They screamed and exclaimed, rushing forward like frightened cattle, sheep, deer and horses. Some even slashed swords and guns at their robes in order to escape, and continued to escape. Others quickly discarded the weapons in their hands and took off their armor in order to run faster.

On the plain outside Huzhou City, if you look down from above at this time, you can see a strange and terrifying scene. More than 40,000 people were killed by more than 20,000 Song troops and kept running like pigs and sheep. Some people kept falling down and people kept kneeling on the ground. Even if several teams wanted to make the final struggle, they were completely swallowed up by the morale and the Song troops attacked with all their strength...

The screams behind him made Wu Jun panic. Everyone hated that they had less legs and did not dare to turn back, but would only rush forward. Even though they had arrived in front of Huzhou City, most people had no intention of entering the city to take refuge, but instead continued to flee south.

There was still a defender of about 2,000 in the city of Huzhou, but under such a general situation, even though Ning Heng was willing to rescue, he was unable to make the situation come true. Before he could even ask someone to close the city gate, the two groups of soldiers who were chasing and fleeing had already rushed into the city. Without the need for the Song army to take action, he was already scared. The Wu army, who only knew how to escape, had already taken the lead in attacking the defender of the city.

When the Song army followed in, the defenders in the city completely lost their power of resistance and were quickly suppressed, either dead or surrendered. In just half a day, this city of Zhejiang, which had been blocked by the Song army for more than a month, was lost. Fortunately, Ning Heng saw the opportunity quickly, and after confirming that the city could no longer be defended, he decisively led hundreds of personal soldiers to escape from the city quickly, otherwise he would become a burial in Huzhou City.

It was not until Sun Tu led his army into the city and confirmed that the enemy could no longer repeat it, that he immediately ordered the pursuit to stop and let the army and horses in front return in time!

To be honest, this victory was really beyond his expectations. Although he thought that the Wu army thought that the commander would be in chaos after being killed, the enemy's defeat caught him off guard. It was not until this time that he realized that these anti-army troops were different from regular troops. They were just a group of farmers who had never touched swords and guns two years ago. People like this may still be able to obey commands and fight bravely when fighting with the wind, but once they were defeated, they would escape faster than anyone else, and they would no longer have the possibility of re-subtracting their troops and turning back to fight.

However, the enemy's dispersion was also a problem for the Shandong Army. In order to chase the defeated army, all the troops and horses were completely dispersed. Just looking south from the city, you could see the horses of both sides chasing desperately. If a neatly-shaped anti-army suddenly came from the rear, even the Shandong Army would not be able to resist it.

This is the reason why the enemy is not chasing on the battlefield and stop when they are good. If you just want to kill the enemy with greed for merit, it will also bring great danger and trouble to yourself.

If it was an ordinary army, even if the commander issued an order in this case, it would be difficult to conquer the troops in less than half a day. But the Shandong Army was a well-trained elite army. As the horns of retreating continued to sound, except for the soldiers who were still fighting, everyone began to stop and return, gathered into a team and retreated in an orderly manner.

However, when the Wu army in front heard the trumpet, they thought that the Song army was attacking again, which scared them to escape faster and they could not care about anything. So, along the way they fled, they discarded countless swords, guns, armor, and even some money and other things, and in the end, they naturally gave up the Shandong army soldiers.

It was not until noon that the troops retreated safely to Huzhou.

At this point, the battle surrounding Huzhou finally ended with the Song army's victory. This victory was even more exciting than all previous victories combined, killing more enemies, and it was a complete victory!
