Under normal circumstances, beating the drum is an attack, and ringing the gold is a retreat.
In today's battle, the Wu army once again appeared vulnerable, and it seemed that the Qi army not only had the advantage in the battle but also had the superior force. When the sound of the golden ring sounded, the Wu army showed signs of retreating. It was in an advantageous position and the Qi army's morale soared, and it was even more difficult to pursue.
Abandon.
"Destroy the enemy today!" Gao Wupi shouted loudly.
Their regiment has been suppressing the Wu army from the time it went into battle until now. Unfortunately, the Wu army often retreated decisively when opportunities came up. Although it was smooth, the results were rather unsatisfactory.
When the Qi army in several other local battlefields heard the sound of gold from behind the Wu army, their morale must have soared again instantly, and they chased with even more joy.
"Wu Jun shouldn't be so vulnerable! What's wrong with the situation?" Guo Shu was happy because the previous battle went smoothly, but he felt more and more something was wrong afterwards.
Now, the various units of the Wu Army have been increasing their distance, which has also caused the distance between several legions of the Qi Army. Not only are the various units fighting in the fighting field more scattered, but there is also a relatively large gap in the middle.
"Hurry! Hurry! Ring the gold, ring the gold quickly!" Guo Shu did not notice Wu Jun's unusual movements, but simply felt uneasy, so it was better to be careful.
This is the caution of a commander-in-chief. After sensing that something is wrong, he would rather give up a seemingly smooth situation and choose to avoid risks safely.
However, Guoshu's response was still a bit slow after all. His order to Ming Jin also deceived various local Qi troops to some extent.
The various units of the Qi army were chasing Zheng Huan. They were chasing each other with no formation to speak of, and there was no contact between the various units.
When they heard the sound of gold ringing coming from their own side, some Qi troops chose to obey and stopped the pursuit to restore their formation; some Qi troops pretended not to hear the sound of gold ringing coming from behind, but still bitten Wu Jun.
It was the same sound of gold, but Wu Jun adjusted his state less than half a quarter of an hour after hearing the sound of gold. He turned around and pounced on the nearest Qi army with a ferocious expression, showing a ferocious side that was completely different from before.
At this time, the Qi army had already obeyed the order and disobeyed the order to retreat, which further formed chaos. They were met with a premeditated counterattack by the Wu army. The Qi army that chose to pursue was immediately scattered, while those who retreated hesitated and continued to retreat.
It's time to return to rescue friendly forces.
Also at this stage, King Fucha's banner suddenly appeared on the battlefield, and a Wu army of about 30,000 troops inserted into the empty spot drawn by the warring ministries. It seemed that they wanted to block the Qi army's retreat.
Seeing the changing situation of the battle, Credentials had two options. The first was to withdraw to the city of "Ai Ling" with the troops around him. The second option was to lead the remaining Qi troops to stop Fu Cha and lead the army to get it.
Wu Jun.
If Guo Shu had made the first option, the Qi army remaining on the battlefield would most likely be annihilated. However, Guo Shu could still persist with the city defense of "Ai Ling" and have the opportunity to collect the remaining soldiers in the wilderness, and then
Insist on continuing to provide assistance to the country.
"I can't abandon so many troops, and it's almost impossible to have reinforcements in the country..." Cold sweat broke out from Guo Shu's forehead, and he generally knew that the situation was not good.
During this period of time, Fu Chai had been feeding the Qi army, which indeed made the Qi army develop a arrogant attitude.
Too many victories made the Qi army forget the past that they were badly beaten by the Wu army in recent years, and their mentality became that other friendly forces could not do it. If they were to fight against the Wu army themselves, it would immediately become different.
If your allies are not good, you are very good, and to a certain extent, it can aggravate your arrogance. It is hard not to admit this.
There seemed to be two options, but in fact, the letter of credence, which had no choice at all, did not rush to the battlefield immediately. He first sent troops to try to intercept the main force of the Wu army led by Fu Chai. He stayed in the account and wrote the letter very quickly. It was inevitable that there would be something in it.
After a few confessions and explanations, he sent someone to deliver the letter, and then brought his own soldiers to fight.
In the letter of the credential, there is a description of resentment against the Jin army, advising the kings and ministers of Qi to temporarily surrender to Wu, and to take revenge on Jin on the side of Wu, and so on.
They do have reasons to hate the Jin State. Not to mention the repeated eastward expansion of the Zhi family in recent years, and even more anciently, the Jin State has usurped the hegemony of the Qi State. The rest is that the Jin State clearly promised to help the war, but the army did not arrive as scheduled.
It's a battlefield.
"Send someone to inform Mr. Wu that Wei Ju and Zhiyao of the Jin Dynasty are wandering around with less than three thousand men, and the camp is about to be on the upper reaches of the Zi River." The credential continued.
Mudd!
The State of Qi will definitely feel uncomfortable. Being able to win over the next generation head of the Zhi family and the current head of the Wei family is not a huge loss, and may even be a gain.
As an envoy, the people of Qi will definitely be able to see Fu Chai. This is unquestionable even when the two armies are fighting. It shows how determined Fu Chai is to capture Wei Ju and Zhi Yao.
Guoshu felt the strong wind coming towards him as the chariots galloped, and listened to the various sounds caused by the fighting. He thought to himself: "Perhaps Wei Ju and Zhiyao can draw away a considerable number of Wu troops and create a way for me to break through."
Chance?"
Now, the fighting between the Wu Army and the Qi Army is too scattered and chaotic. The fighting first started on the plain east of "Ai Ling" and will surely spread slowly. Fighting will break out one after another along the line of about two hundred miles.
If such a situation is really formed, the "Battle of Ailing" between the Wu Army and the Qi Army will become the first such long battle in the history of Zhuxia. For this reason, regardless of victory or defeat, both sides will be able to leave their mark in the history books.
name.
Of course, he is still awesome. Life is so short, but he has accomplished so many great things.
Zhiyao and Wei Ju, who were hiding to watch the battle, of course saw the Qi army not retreating but advancing after being fooled, and they immediately had their own ideas.
"The rise of the Tian family is inevitable," Wei Ju said.
The credential, he is actually Chen's surname Tian. The Tian family sent few troops, but the commander-in-chief fell into the hands of the Tian family. Can it be regarded as Tian Qi having taken control of Qi? Or maybe Qi Jun Yangsheng was deceived and couldn't find his way.
This time, the commander-in-chief of the Qi army was from the Tian family, and the deputy commander was also from the Tian family, named Tian Ni.
Tian Ni, who had not arrived at "Ai Ling", was the chief officer of the reserve force and was also in charge of the command of all "Fangcheng".
Zhiyao casually responded to Wei Ju, but thought in her heart: "Did Tian want to deliberately destroy this Qi army in order to further weaken the Qi Duke family? Regardless of whether it is true or not, what can I do next on this point?
Article."
That's totally possible!
If Guo Shu can lead the Qi army to defeat the Wu army led by Fu Cha, the Tian family's prestige will definitely skyrocket. Losing will not be a loss for the Tian family, and may even help the Tian family control the Qi state more deeply.
Therefore, don't blame Zhiyao for thinking that way due to his dark psychology. It is true that the "Battle of Ailing" will be beneficial to the Tian family no matter who loses or wins.
The Tian family is not the first family to direct the battle for national destiny in order to achieve their own plot. In terms of whether they can achieve their goals, the Tian family does it most cleanly. No wonder they have their own little thoughts behind it.
The wealthy or aristocratic families always take the Tian family as their example.
Zhiyao no longer needs to watch the development of the war.
The next development of the situation will definitely be that the Qi army will be intercepted and then besieged. Qi State does not have enough reinforcements to arrive, and the Wu army will most likely annihilate this Qi army.
Zhiyao is not so sure whether the Jin army appeared in the "Battle of Ailing" in the original history, but he doesn't care so much. The original history is the original history, and his version of history has long been changed.
"Our whereabouts have been exposed in front of the Qi people. The Qi army is about to be defeated, and we must reveal our whereabouts. We cannot stay for a long time," Zhiyao said.
Wei Ju was stunned and said in disbelief: "Qi Ren'an dares to do this?"
There is no need for Zhiyao to give Qi Guo more eye drops here in Wei Ju.
If a person is unlucky, he rarely wants to see others even more unlucky.
Even if it is something that harms others and does not benefit oneself, there will still be many people doing it.
"If I don't take any action, Qi will definitely surrender to Wu. Zhi's original private army is in 'Tan', and Yao has ordered it to march. The superior general and the superior military assistant also have contacts." Zhi Yao was talking about everything.
What Wei Ju knew in advance.
They were on their way, and the place they were going to was somewhere east of Mount Tai, which was regarded as the territory of Lu State based on its territorial scope.
The Zhi family's private army, led by Sima Ranju, has arrived.
Because Zhiyao always took the initiative to communicate, it was difficult for outsiders to find them who were always on the move. Hu Jie and Zhong Quan were also on the move, so it was very difficult for both parties to get in touch.
Therefore, Zhiyao still doesn't know whether Hu Jie and Zhong Quan brought their troops to join the Zhi family's private army after the contact was interrupted.
Some Zhi clan scouts who were deliberately left around "Ai Ling" by Zhi Yao, a few later overtook the larger army.
"The Wu army has surrounded the Qi army. The eldest son and the head of the Wei family left. Wu Jun sent troops to the old site of our army camp in Zishui."
So, Qi Ren did betray the whereabouts of Zhiyao and Wei Ju, right?
Zhiyao, who wants to seize the opportunity to do something, has no guilt at all. It is a reality to fight for the fate of the country.
With such a thing as the premise, Zhiyao can act more confidently!
After hearing the scout's report, Wei Ju, who had no intention of returning home, became furious and said, "Wait until I recruit a large army!"
Zhiyao was speechless.
It was because Wei Ju saw a profit and wanted to make a fortune.
"When will the army arrive?" Zhiyao asked. ;
Wei Ju replied: "If it's as late as three months, if it's as short as two months."
So fast!?
The Wei family has been gathering a force for a long time to prevent situations that may arise at any time.
There must be similar defense plans in other families. The difference lies in the number of troops that are usually assembled.
It seems that the various families in Jin State have a strong sense of worry.
Zhiyao thought for a moment and thought: "We have already invited the Hu family and the Zhong family, and adding one more Wei family is not too much. The remaining question is, can I get the command directly, or do I need to invite my father too?
?”
After all, Hu Jie is the superior general, Zhong Quan is the superior military commander, and Wei Ju is the lower military commander. The advantage of gaining command of the army is there.
In this battle, Zhiyao absolutely cannot allow the command to be out of his hands!
