In the end, Liu Yang still issued the order to attack, but Fan's troops faced Wei's troops and did not choose to attack Zhi's troops.
It wasn't that Liu Yang was still thinking about his romantic relationship with Zhishi, it was simply that he was confused by the performance of Zhishi's new army.
Another point is that the Fan family and the Wei family have been fighting for more than a year. In comparison, the hatred value of the Fan family towards the Wei family is relatively high.
The fierce battle that is breaking out covers dozens of miles around. The terrain of this place is really not flat. The fighting breaks out on the flat ground, in the mountains, and in the woods. The largest scale of the fighting must be on the flat ground.
Limited by the terrain, the tank troops on both sides were unable to perform well.
The current situation is such that fighting can start anywhere, and the role of the tank has been greatly restricted.
What was the situation like in the past? Countries would agree on a location for war, usually on flat terrain. Not only would the chariots have room to display, but the fighting would also eliminate the need to compete with each other over the mountains and plains.
"Your Majesty, the Zhi family has already counterattacked, and the Chu army cannot stop it." Jian Bo was also surprised by Zhi family's performance. Unlike Liu Yang, he knew that Zhi Yao was training a new army.
Zhi's new army was so capable that they received the order to countercharge and went against the Chu army's charge. It took less than a quarter of an hour to defeat the Chu army. The speed of the subsequent advance depended purely on cutting.
The speed of the head is equivalent to the fact that cutting off the head delayed Zhishi's advancement, otherwise the advancement speed would have been faster.
Wei Ju had eyes to see, and came to a judgment that he thought was reliable. He thought to himself: "About 40,000 Chu troops can't defeat the 15,000 or so Zhishi troops? It seems that my family should also train new troops, no.
It’s about increasing the size of the new army!”
The situation on the battlefield is very obvious. Zhi's new army is used as a sharp knife, and the sharpness of this knife is unexpected. It can cut through the Chu army by swinging it casually, allowing other friendly forces to expand the victory.
Of course, Wei Ju is not a fool. He knows very well that Wei's march cannot be all heavy infantry. He must learn some of Zhi's practices and study the corresponding light infantry types.
Wei Ju had already thought about all the types of soldiers, so he just imitated the Zhi clan and made spear, spear, and shield soldiers, or in large numbers.
Wearing a shield? Wei said that she liked it very much, and if she didn’t do it, she would be a human being!
Zhiyao was not surprised by the development of the battle.
In fact, Zhiyao had done everything he could, including annihilating the coalition vanguard, deliberately not disposing of the headless corpses on the battlefield to anger the opponent, and looking for opportunities to kill Young Master Lu so that the Chu army would lose its commander. The next thing to look at was her own side.
The performance of the troops.
However, Zhiyao did not know that Gongzi Lu did not die immediately.
Young Master Lu was hit by an arrow in the cheek, penetrating from one end to the other. If he was injured, he was injured. He lost a few teeth. If he was dead, he was not dead.
Speaking of which, Gongzilu was also unlucky. He fell off the chariot and hit the back of his head and passed out. Later, he was simply trampled to death by the Chi clan soldiers passing by.
So, don’t pretend to be dead easily when you go to the battlefield, otherwise you are very likely to be trampled to death, or you will be covered in arrows from both sides. If you are really lucky, you will not be trampled to death or shot to death, and you will wait for the winner later.
Clean the battlefield, and if the enemy finds out that you still have a chance to survive by pretending to be dead, you can become a prisoner of war or something like that. If your side wins, just wait to be executed.
Dou Huai also charged, but as the chariot started to gallop, a stone hit the wheel before it was two hundred meters away. There was a violent jolt, and a stone hit the wheel before it moved forward more than twenty miles, causing it to overturn.
It's not a joke that the tank was knocked over and turned upside down. There is no shock absorption system, the wheels are connected to the vehicle body, and there is no such thing as an axle. It is also very bulky. There are really too many similar examples.
It has to be said that it is difficult for Chu people to have any good luck when they come to the Central Plains. Later, it seems that their luck was used up by the Chu State's drinking of the horse river. Every time the Chu army went north, some strange things happened. This time, Young Master Lu and
Dou Huai is really plagued by bad luck.
Dou Huai fell off the chariot and his leg was broken by the frame of the chariot. The driver was even more unlucky and his head was dripping with juice, but the right side of the chariot was intact.
Che You could not lift the chariot up to rescue Dou Huai, whose leg was pinned down, so he called the people next to him to come over and help.
The eyes of Dou Huai, who had broken his leg, were turning black. Apart from being in unbearable pain, it had a lot to do with the development of the battle.
The Chu army rushed forward in a swarm, but they failed to push the Jin army back. After a slight stalemate, they were pushed back.
What happened to the Chu vanguard army was repeated here. The Chu soldiers saw the Zhi soldiers with their heads hanging on their waists and their ferocious faces. Many of them finally understood how the friendly troops on the other side of the pass had no heads.
This is like having his head cut off by the Jin army!
Also, are these Jin troops crazy?
The Chu army could not understand when the war in the Central Plains became so brutal. In the past, they would at most kill their opponents and would not maliciously destroy the enemy's corpses. On the contrary, they would maintain respect. How come this battle has become so cruel?
It’s the same!
Ordinary people must be frightened when faced with someone who behaves cruelly.
Similarly, facing a ferocious enemy force, even a soldier will feel scared.
After all, ordinary people are just as human as soldiers.
The difference is that soldiers have been trained and know how to overcome the fear in their hearts. In addition, even if they know that the enemy is ferocious, no matter how scared they are, they will have to fight hard because they will face the consequences of military law or the supervision of officers.
The worst thing about the Chu army now is that they have lost their commander. The good thing is that the characteristics of the times are that even if there is no supreme commander, the soldiers can still fight under the command of their own nobles, or make other choices.
Because there was no supreme commander, many nobles of the Chu State found that the war situation was collapsing, and even when they were restrained by fighting spirit, they still had to fight it out.
When someone discovered that even Dou Huai was missing, some nobles began to turn around and run away with their soldiers.
A family ran away? The nobles of other families knew that they were going to lose, so they would think about whether it was necessary to stay and persist, or whether it was worth it.
It is not terrible if the two armies cannot win the battle. The most terrible thing is to lose confidence and have some people on our side flee.
Once friendly troops escape, and a large number of friendly troops are running away, those who originally wanted to persist will be shaken, and the loss of restraint will lead to the collapse of the entire army.
After Zhi Yao discovered that the Chu army was beginning to flee, he said to Zhi Xu Wu, "Let's surrender."
"No!" Zhi Xuwu responded.
When Zhiyao decided to surrender, the battle had lasted for about an hour, and the battlefield extended to the north for about eight miles.
The victory or defeat on their side has been decided, but the Wei family is still in the midst of a fierce confrontation.
The enemies the Wei family faced were not only from the Fan family, but also from a considerable number of Chu troops.
The Fan family and the Wei family fought back and forth, and to a certain extent, the Fan family even had the advantage. This is not surprising. First of all, because the Wei family had to deal with too many scenes, the quality of the troops under Wei Ju's command varied.
Secondly, the people of the Fan family are very aware of the situation they are facing. They cannot afford to lose at all. Even if they know they will lose, they will grit their teeth and take away more enemies.
To put it bluntly, the Fan family, who cannot afford to lose, has no choice but to fight tooth and nail. Whether facing the Zhi family or the Wei family, it is actually the same.
Of course, there will be differences between them. The Fan family will be the most determined to fight against the Zhao family. The Wei family will also be willing to fight against the Zhao family. The Han family's treatment in the Fan family is similar to the Wei family, which will make the Fan family
The family that lacks the most desperate mentality is the Zhi family.
Therefore, he still had to fight hard, and Liu Yang chose the Wei family to fight against.
In Liu Yang's opinion, the peace between the Zhi family and the Zhao family cannot last long. If many people must die today, the Zhi family should die less and save the greatest strength to fight against the Zhao family in the future.
When the Chu army faced the Wei clan, their combat effectiveness was also not very good, and they suffered a series of violent beatings from the Wei clan.
If there were non-belligerent parties present, one would come to the conclusion that the combat effectiveness of the Zhi family, Wei family and Fan family who also came from the Jin Kingdom remained reliable, while the upper and lower limits of the Chu army's combat effectiveness were as erratic as before.
It’s not a cold joke, it’s entirely due to the Chu State’s own national conditions. Their most elite troops are of course the “left and right” troops, followed by the top-ranked princes of the Chu State, and then the bottom-ranked princes.
Then there are the private armies of nobles from various places.
At the same time, there is another point. At present, the Chu State has a strong public clan, and it is not yet the period when various feudal lords were strong during the Warring States Period.
Currently, the State of Chu has feudal lords, but the number of lords is not large, and the number of lords is more.
The quality of the Chu troops that entered Jin territory was uneven, and too many "accidents" damaged morale and even disintegrated the command system. It was unusual for any opposing army to remain undefeated in such a situation.
"The Chu army has been defeated!" Liu Yang's heart sank.
Zhi's troops are accepting surrender and will soon be free to help Wei. Then Fan and other Chu troops will be in trouble.
"The Zhi family has won!" Wei Ju also controlled the development of the battle.
Uncle Jian said: "The Crown Prince of the Zhi family is also here."
Yes, Zhiyao's chariot is galloping towards Wei Ju, accompanied by about a "brigade" of troops.
Wei Ju said: "Do you want to surrender?"
Jian Bo thought for a moment and replied: "It's fine for the Chu army, but not for the Fan family."
Wei Ju was stunned for a moment, not knowing what he thought of, and said with a smile: "Why did Yao come here? Have you guessed it?"
Don't forget that the Zhi family and the Fan family are not mortal enemies. At the same time, the Wei family has experienced the benefits of cooperating with Shigaoyi. Not to mention that the biggest threat to the Wei family currently comes from the Zhao family.
"Ju." Zhiyao greeted him first, and then continued as he got closer, "Let's recruit the Chu army to surrender."
There is no mention of how to deal with this Fan family's army. Seeing that the Zhi family has already given up an area, in fact, everything is completely hidden.
With this attitude, Zhiyao received no response from Wei Ju, and could only say that Liu Yang's fate was bad.
Liu Yang had better keep his eyes open and learn to be a better person afterwards, otherwise Fan will not receive such treatment next time.
In fact, Wei Ju didn't understand Zhiyao's intention at first, but he figured it out only after Uncle Jian reminded him in a low voice.
Next, the Wei family began to slow down its attack on the Fan family, and instead stepped up its offensive against the Chu army.
Liu Yang, who had been watching in all directions, had some guesses about the gap left by the Zhi family on the battlefield, and then saw that the Wei family slowed down their offensive. Although he was not 100% sure, he more or less guessed something.
"Zhi Yao and Wei Ju were in the same car?" Liu Yang roughly understood what the newly arrived Zhi Yao said to Wei Ju, which led to the subsequent actions of the Wei family's army.
It seemed like he could withdraw from the battlefield? But Liu Yang was extremely hesitant in his heart!
If the Chu army was completely wiped out or suffered heavy losses, but the Fan family was able to retain most of its strength and evacuate, what would the Chu State think?
