Although Qin Hao took away all the five divine generals, he left Su Lie and Xue Rengui behind. In addition, Bai Qi, the commander-in-chief of 105, was in charge of the overall situation. It was absolutely impossible for the Bingnan Allied Forces to enter the Changping Territory.
He escaped under Bai Qi's nose.
In terms of strong generals, Bai Qi's army is indeed slightly weaker, but with Xue Rengui, Qin Wu, Arthur and many other strong generals, it is enough to deal with Ju Wuba and Liang Lin.
As soon as Qin Hao's army left, Bai Qi immediately took action. He ordered Su Dingfang to lead 30,000 troops to station at the Shangdang border to prevent the Ming army from suddenly entering and disrupting the battle. He and Xue Rengui each led 50,000 troops and stationed at Changping Chang
The mountainous area stretching for more than ten miles was fortified everywhere, blocking all roads for the coalition forces to escape from Changping.
Not long ago, Bai Qi was at the junction of Hongnong and Luoyang, completely besieging the 50,000 Liang army with an army of 60,000. So quickly he besieged a coalition of 100,000 with an army of 100,000, and this was in Changzhou, which he knew very well and felt very close to.
It's a flat land, so Bai Qi was very familiar with the layout.
In Changping, a basin sandwiched between two mountains, Bai Qi and Xue Rengui blocked the front and rear exits one after another, and then deployed heavy troops in the dangerous places on the two mountains.
The reason why Bai Qi arranged it like this was not to prevent the coalition forces from breaking out from both sides. The purpose of fortifying the mountain road between the two mountains was to prevent the enemy from attacking from both sides of the mountain. The combination of Zhengqi and Qi might cause damage to his own side.
.
Of course, it is impossible for the 100,000-strong army to break out of the encirclement by taking the mountain road. A random ambush on the road may wipe out the entire army, so Wang Mang only has two front and back roads to break out of the encirclement.
On the Changping defense line, which is more than ten miles long, the greatest pressure is on the front where Bai Qi is responsible, so Bai Qi has the most generals assigned to this side.
As Bai Qi expected, Wang Mang couldn't wait to kill the Qin army before their defense facilities were fully deployed.
Now, the longer it is delayed, the more disadvantageous it will be to the coalition forces. A decisive attack may still be able to carve out a bloody path.
Wang Mang ordered Chen Qingzhi and Chen Baxian to each lead an army and strive to deploy their troops. Suddenly dozens of Changping mountain roads were ignited with flames of war.
There is no doubt about the command ability of Chen Qingzhi and Chen Baxian, but there are no mediocre generals in the Qin army. In addition, given the favorable geographical location, even if Chen Qingzhi and Chen Baxian commanded it personally, it would be difficult to break through the Qin army in a short period of time.
line of defense.
"This can't go on like this."
A trace of solemnity flashed in Wang Mang's eyes. He watched with his own eyes as his army attacked a stronghold of the Qin Army four times. However, as soon as they reached the halfway point of the mountain, they were shot back by the Qin Army's powerful crossbows.
The Qin army's powerful crossbows have a far longer range than the coalition's bows and crossbows. Coupled with the fact that they are condescending and have a wide field of vision, the range is naturally further. It is okay that the coalition forces do not appear within the range. Once traces are exposed, they will be suppressed and unable to raise their heads.
Come.
"Damn it, why does the Qin army have so many powerful crossbows? Qin Hao must be too willing to do so in order to improve the army's combat effectiveness."
Wang Mang clenched his fists unconsciously. According to his observation, among the 100,000 Qin troops on the opposite side, there were at least 30,000 strong crossbows. This number can be said to be extremely huge, but this is not the total number of strong crossbows in the Qin army. It can be seen that
The Qin army only spent a gold mountain on the crossbows. It is no wonder that the Qin army's combat power is so strong.
Seeing the Qin army's crossbowmen shooting arrows without stopping, Wang Mang's eyes were full of envy. This was the difference in background.
Qin Hao was born several years earlier than him, and his accumulated wealth is much richer than his. Looking at the rich man, he is just throwing money at the war!
Seeing that his army's attacks were repeatedly repelled, Wang Mang knew that he could not continue. After tonight, the Qin army's deployment and command would be tighter, and the possibility of breaking out would be even lower.
"Send orders to Ju Guuba and Liang Lin to join the battle." Wang Mang said in a deep voice.
For Ju Wuba and Liang Lin, with preparation, the crossbow arrows fired by ordinary soldiers were not a big threat, and they easily entered the Qin army, and what followed was naturally a one-sided massacre.
Even though the soldiers of the Qin army had sophisticated weapons and strong armor, they could not withstand Ju Wu Ba's twisting scissors and Liang Lin's sledgehammer.
After the two charged into the Qin army, they killed a soldier with every step they took. Hundreds of elite sword and shield hands holding horizontal knives could not stop the two men.
With Juwuba and Liang Lin in front holding fire, the coalition forces naturally easily attacked the hilltop, and then broke through the Qin army's defense line in one fell swoop. The Qin army suffered hundreds of casualties and retreated to the next hilltop, while Juwuba and Liang Lin pursued the victory.
.
After Ju Wuba and Liang Lin joined the battle, the situation of the coalition forces really improved a lot. They captured the Qin Army's three hills in a row. However, the terrain here in Changping is that one mountain is connected to another, and each mountain is higher than the other. I think
If we want to completely break out of the encirclement, we still have a chance to fight.
The rapid fall of the three mountaintops naturally aroused Bai Qi's vigilance, so he quickly summoned the generals to discuss how to deal with it.
"Qin Wu, Luo Cheng, Ding Yanping, Arthur, Lin Chong, Qin Ming, Hua Mulan, Hu Sanniang...you wait together to stop Ju Wuba and Liang Lin."
Bai Qi glanced at the generals in the hall and saw that everyone was a little confused, so he immediately explained: "Both Ju Guuba and Liang Lin have bravery that no man can match. All the generals in our army who can rival them have been taken by the lord."
Went to deal with Yuan Meng, General Xue Rengui was leading the army but couldn't get away.
Now that our army has no generals who can fight alone, there is no need to worry about defeating these two people. We can swarm them and kill them first."
Chen Qingzhi led Ju Wuba and Liang Lin, and after defeating the Qin army on three hills, they then aimed at a hill where the Detachment of Women was stationed.
This time the Qin army was fully prepared. Not long after the coalition launched its attack, the Qin general arrived. Seeing this, Liang Hongyu personally beat the drum for the entire army.
Ding dong, Liang Hongyu's skill "Drum Exercise" is activated, and the morale, attack power... and other comprehensive abilities of the Qin army have been partially improved.
Seeing that Ju Wuba and Liang Lin had already come to kill him, Qin Wu smiled at his wife Yang Paifeng beside him and said: "Liang Lin has given up your women's army, and Ju Wuba belongs to us."
Yang Paifeng rolled her eyes at her husband and hummed: "Virtue."
"Ha ha."
Qin Wu roared loudly and then shouted: "Brothers, don't let the girls in the Detachment of Women look down on you. If you still want to get a wife, use all your strength to kill them."
Lin Chong and Qin Mingli followed Qin Wu to kill Juwuba, while Yang Paifeng teamed up with Hua Mulan, Hu Sanniang, and Dong Yuee to fight against Liang Lin.
When Ju Wuba saw a large group of Qin generals coming towards him, he couldn't help but cursed angrily: "Qin generals are shameless and have the guts to challenge me in a one-on-one battle."
"snort."
Qin Wu snorted coldly, swung his sword and slashed, and at the same time cursed: "If you challenge your uncle to a one-on-one fight, I'll hit whoever you want. What nonsense are you talking about?"
Qin Wu jumped up, slashed down the white tiger sword in his hand, and hit the scissors hard.
Nail... Sparks flew out after the two soldiers collided.
