Chapter seven hundred and seventy fourth half moon
No one is perfect, no matter how powerful the formation is, it cannot force him to be perfect.
Although this formation can only be used for head-on combat, it cannot be used to pursue victory. Although An Junshan was a little regretful, he did not complain.
If we can defeat the enemy in a head-on battle, the worst we can do is dismantle the formation when we are pursuing the victory.
The tens of thousands of soldiers recruited are not only to provide physical strength and vitality to the thousands of generals, they also have combat effectiveness themselves.
But again, the current situation is that all the Turkic coalition forces on the opposite side are cavalry, but his army has 20,000 infantry units. Even if the formation is lifted, it cannot catch up with the Turkic army that is bent on escaping.
The mission of Anjun Mountain is to contain the coalition forces of several stronger tribes such as the Turks.
The purpose was not only to prevent them from reinforcing the Turkic tribes on other routes, but also to prevent these tribes from running away in advance.
At the very least, their vitality cannot be run away.
Secretly, he had sent scouts to monitor the migration of the people in these tribes.
That's right, although the Turkic coalition forces faced off against Anjunshan's army here, and they seemed determined to destroy his army, the people in their respective tribes had already begun to move secretly.
Nomads have no fixed place of residence and all their possessions are on horseback.
However, Anjunshan is not in a hurry. The 20,000 coalition troops in front of him are already the majority of the combat strength of these tribes. As long as they can be contained and eliminated, the remaining troops in the tribe will not stop Dali's cavalry at all.
But if these Turkic cavalry were allowed to escape, although they could still be found and annihilated under the siege of the Dali army, it would take too long.
The supplies brought by the current army are likely to be insufficient.
Therefore, after annihilating the two thousand Turkic cavalry and giving them a show of strength, Anjunshan ordered the one hundred generals who were still unsatisfied to return to the camp.
Get into a state of staying behind closed doors.
Seeing this situation, the Turkic generals couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.
Although they did not think that the one hundred generals just now were the limit of the Dali army, they subconsciously believed that their number was not enough to deal with the twenty thousand Turkic coalition forces.
Now it's 18,000.
Otherwise, with An Junshan's "crazy" fighting style, he would have already come out in force and launched an active attack on them.
As a result, they fell into the trap of Anjun Mountain.
The two armies fell into a confrontation.
During this period, the Turkic coalition forces repeatedly looked for ways to break the situation, but Anjunshan's appearance of waiting for reinforcements made them unable to do so.
If a small force is sent to harass them, they are afraid that something like the first time will happen again. Once hundreds of generals who are not afraid of injury or fatigue come out, the people sent out will not even be able to escape.
But if the army directly attacks the temporary fortifications of the Dali army, they have no confidence that they can finally break through.
Instead, it may get into a tug-of-war.
Once the cavalry is dragged into a tug of war, at least half of its combat power will be wasted.
…
This confrontation lasted for nearly half a month.
Half a month ago, the Turkic coalition forces had never found an opportunity to attack the Dali defense fortifications.
They also wanted to divide their troops and use most of the cavalry to contain Anjunshan's army, and sent thousands of cavalry to support the tribes attacked by the five cavalry groups in Dali.
They also understand the principle of dying lips and cold teeth.
Each of the five cavalry teams only has a few thousand men. As long as the soldiers they separate can join forces with a small tribe at will, they will have the strength to fight against them.
However, Anjunshan did not give them this opportunity.
In normal times, Anjunshan would stick to his fortifications, but as long as the Turks showed signs of dividing their forces, he would adopt a direct attack posture.
Once they gave up the idea of dividing their troops, Anjunshan once again held on to its fortifications.
Anyway, it's just the same thing. If you don't leave, I won't take the initiative to fight you. But if you want to leave, don't blame me for eating the remaining cavalry.
After allocating part of the force, the remaining cavalry could only contain the Dali army, but they were at a disadvantage in a head-on confrontation.
Behind them are their respective tribes.
If the tribe is stronger, the population in the tribe will be larger, and the migration speed will be relatively slower.
Although they were worried, if Anjunshan took advantage of them to rescue other tribes and led his army to destroy their tribe first, they would definitely not be able to hold on.
Therefore, in the past half month, the Turkic coalition forces and the Dali army, which relied on fortifications for defense, had a confrontation on the grassland, but they did not retreat or take any further.
The success of these 18,000 coalition forces was delayed here.
And this behavior of drinking poison to quench thirst also brought the Turkic coalition forces to their end half a month later.
…
After half a month of confrontation.
In the eyes of the Turkic generals, Anjunshan, which had always been unable to defend itself, opened the gate of the fortification at this moment, and five hundred people came out hand in hand.
Seeing this familiar scene, all the generals' eyes jumped.
The one hundred people last time were all in the middle stage of acquired martial arts, but among these five hundred people there were quite a few people in the late stages of acquired martial arts or even the peak of acquired martial arts.
And at the front of these five hundred people, a soldier wearing heavy armor stood at the front.
Anyone who has seen Anjun Mountain will recognize it at a glance.
That is a great innate master.
Thinking of the posture of the one hundred martial arts cultivators half a month ago, they shuddered subconsciously.
Even if these five hundred men were as tireless and uninjured as the previous one hundred men, they would not be able to defeat the 18,000 Turkic cavalry, but they would definitely cause a lot of damage.
Especially for the innate-level Anjunshan, once he breaks in, it will definitely be a huge disaster for the Turkic soldiers.
But this time, they were riding horses.
But what frightened them was not that.
During this half-month confrontation, even the Turkic generals who had never had any dealings with Anjunshan had already seen that this commander-in-chief would never fight an unprepared battle, nor would he be reckless and impulsive.
It was impossible for him to suddenly lead 500 people to launch a fatal attack in order to severely damage the coalition forces after half a month of confrontation.
That is to say...
Some sharp Turkic generals subconsciously shifted their sights in other directions.
And soon, their hunch was confirmed.
Not long after the five hundred warriors led by An Junshan stepped out of the fortifications, five groups of cavalry rushed out from five directions.
The generals recognized them at a glance. They were the five cavalry groups from Dali attacking other tribes.
The appearance of these cavalry shocked them greatly.
too fast.
Although they knew that those small tribes could not withstand Dali's five cavalry, based on what they had learned about the strength of Dali's cavalry, the tribe could delay it for at least a month.
