Han Dao world

Unexpectedly, Li Jue did not attack Shi Sun Rui's position, but chose Yang Feng's camp where the emperor was.

Is this God's will?

-

Standing on a high place, Liu Xie overlooked Li Ying and Li Wei's positions, his heart pounding.

This is the first time he has been to the front line to watch the enemy.

Success or failure is related to whether his impression in the eyes of others is taller or completely collapsed.

Although he appeared calm, he was aware of his nervousness, and even the ends of his fingers felt a little numb.

Staring at Yuanxia's position for a while, he said to Wang Yue and Guo Wu, "How far is the distance between Li Ying and Li Wei's positions?"

Guo Wu glanced at it. "About three hundred paces."

Liu Xie quickly calculated in his heart.

Three hundred steps is one mile, about 400 meters, twice the normal distance.

Generally speaking, the distance between the front and rear formations is slightly more than a stone's throw away, about 200 or [-] steps, or about [-] meters.Such a distance not only facilitates the mobilization of troops, but also enables timely reinforcements.

In case there is an enemy army inserted between the two formations, when one's own side uses a bow and crossbow to block the attack, there is no need to worry about shooting the companions on the opposite side.

If it is too far away, it will not only cause a delay in message transmission and cause delays in fighter planes, but may also cause difficulty in reinforcements.

The distance between Li Ying and Li Wei was too great, and the 3000 men of Li Wei's troops who were in charge of the attack were out of touch with the Chinese army led by Li Ying.

"Why is he so far away?"

Guo Wu hesitated for a moment. "It's a little far away. Maybe I think Li Wei has 3000 people, which is enough to handle it. As long as it doesn't collapse suddenly, reinforcements are still in time."

Liu Xie looked at both ends of the formation in front of him again, and was overjoyed when he didn't see the cavalry providing cover.

Why can't it crash suddenly?

Such a good opportunity, it would be a pity not to engage him.

"Guo Wu, if you lead fifty cavalry to attack, can you penetrate Li Wei's position?"

Guo Wulue glanced at it briefly. "I'm [-]% sure."

Liu Xie nodded.

In battle, seven achievements are enough.

What's more, with Guo Wu's character, he said that [-]% of them are almost certain.

Liu Xie rushed to the front of the battle with Guo Wu and others, and found Yang Feng who was directing the battle.

"General, do you want to strike first?"

Yang Feng looked at Liu Xie in surprise, feeling a little uneasy.

Is the emperor trying to seize power in battle?

Looking at Yang Feng's eyes, Liu Xie knew what he was worried about.

He pointed the ground and explained his plan.

Before Liu Xie finished speaking, Yang Feng understood what he meant and hesitated for a moment.

He has been fighting for many years, and he may not have achieved much in strategy, but he has some talents in things like grasping opportunities before the battle.

What the emperor said is indeed an opportunity, but the risk is indeed not small.

What they are facing now is Li Jue's main force, and Li Wei is also an experienced general, not a stunned young man like Li Shi.Once this bone cannot be gnawed in time, it is likely that the tooth will collapse.

Finally, Liu Xie said: "Does the general think it is feasible?"

Yang Feng said cautiously: "What Your Majesty said is indeed a good plan, but the opportunity is fleeting, and no one can do it without a master. If I leave, if there is a change, I am afraid no one will be able to command these soldiers."

Liu Xie has long been prepared. "The general should not leave lightly. Let Guo Wu lead the servant of Huben to test it first. If there is an opportunity, the general will decide whether to attack. If not, it is not difficult to retreat."

Yang Feng smiled. "According to Your Majesty, I will call the troops now."

-

Li Wei immediately stepped forward, set up a pergola, and looked at the distant position.

A lieutenant stood beside his horse, looking uneasy.

He was ordered to attack Yang Feng's position. The position was ready, but he found a battle flag hanging on Yang Feng's position.

A battle flag that should belong to Zhang Xiu.

He was confused about the situation and immediately reported to Li Wei.

Li Wei looked at it for a long time, not too sure.It was too far away, and against the light, he couldn't distinguish the emblem on the battle flag.

"General, do you want to attack?" the captain asked.

Li Wei pondered for a while, then nodded and said, "Of course we have to attack. What does a battle flag mean? If Zhang Xiuzhen colluded with the little emperor secretly, they wouldn't hang out his battle flag."

The captain thought it was reasonable and ordered an attack.

The infantry and crossbowmen stepped forward one by one, gradually approaching Yang Feng's camp.

Yang Feng's camp was very quiet, the drums were beating one after another, and the soldiers standing behind the trench were also very quiet, not even moving, quietly waiting for the arrival of the Xiliang army.

With a long howl, the crossbowmen of the Xiliang Army began to shoot.

The soldiers of the Baibo army behind the trench raised their shields, not even intending to fight back.

Seeing all this, Li Wei had an indescribable premonition in his heart.

The Baibo army in front of him was not like the Baibo army he knew before. They were too calm, so calm that it made people afraid.

Perhaps Zhang Xiu was not in collusion with the little emperor, but was repelled by Yang Feng.With the abilities shown by the Baibo army in front of him, it is not impossible to defeat Zhang Xiu.

Under the cover of crossbowmen, Xiliang army infantry approached the Baibo army's position step by step.

In their hands were not only long knives, spears, but also bags full of earth.

To attack successfully, they had to fill in several passages in the trench.

Li Wei took a look, and estimated that the real battle would not start until at least in the afternoon, so he ordered the commander in front of the formation to be careful, and rushed back to the Chinese army by himself.He sent someone to report to Li Jue and asked Li Jue to contact Zhang Xiu to find out the origin of the battle flag.

That battle flag was like a thorn in his heart, making him restless.

The messenger had just left, and Li Wei was still thinking about Zhang Xiu's possible location, when suddenly there was an earth-shattering sound of war drums ahead.Before Li Wei could react, there was another rapid sound of alarm and war drums ahead.

The cavalry came.

Chapter 107 Preemptive Strike

Li Wei was taken aback, straightened up on the horseback, squinted his eyes, and looked forward.

Under the glare of the sun, smoke and dust rose up, extending towards the Chinese army.

Li Wei has been fighting for many years, so he is naturally familiar with this kind of smoke and dust, which is the characteristic of smoke and dust when a small number of cavalry gallops.

The number of cavalry under Yang Feng's command is limited, at most a hundred cavalry.

These cavalry may have been part of it, numbering between thirty and fifty.

For Li Wei, it was not difficult to defeat these cavalry. He had nearly two hundred personal guard cavalry, all warriors with excellent riding skills and outstanding martial arts, and he was [-]% sure to defeat Yang Feng.

It would be even better if Yang Feng attacked in person.

According to Hu Feng, Yang Feng's personal guard cavalry is well-trained, and he fought against him last time, and his strength is not weak.

Yang Feng probably saw that he had no cavalry cover, and wanted to fight Hu Feng the same way as last time, and then rely on his personal courage to win.

If so, that would be great.

While Li Wei was thinking, he called his personal guards to go out to fight, and at the same time ordered the other ministries to guard their positions and not to mess up their positions.

The personal guards got on their horses and followed Li Wei out of the Chinese army's phalanx, facing the oncoming enemy.

In a blink of an eye, the two armies confronted each other.

Li Wei squinted his eyes and looked at the cavalry on the opposite side, looking for Yang Feng's figure.

He didn't find Yang Feng, but saw a figure in fine armor.

Before he could recognize who it was, the guards beside him would suddenly yell. "Be careful, general, that's Mr. Yang."

Li Wei froze for a moment, then suddenly realized.

It was the warrior who killed three flying bear army rangers and took away the flying bear army battle flag with one against five.

A burst of cold sweat broke out through his body.

In a hurry, even if Li Wei wanted to turn around, it was too late.The opponent came towards him. If he avoided the front and let the opponent enter the formation, he would lose the battle before it really started, and Li Jue would definitely not spare him.

Li Wei roared, clenched the spear in his hand, and rushed over bravely.

The two sides passed by on the wrong horse, and the two spears split at the touch of a touch. Li Wei fell off the horse, and was immediately trampled by the chaotic horseshoes, killing him on the spot.

"Assault! Assault!" After a successful blow, Guo Wu was overjoyed. While raising his spear to meet the Xiliang cavalry who rushed continuously, he ordered the messenger to send a message.

The messenger raised the horn and blew it vigorously, sending the news of Li Wei's death back to the rear.

The flag bearer held the battle flag tightly in his hand, fell forward and shook it continuously.

Yang Feng, who was watching from the rear, received the news and immediately gave the order to attack. He led his personal guards on horseback and rushed out of the position.

Although the two cavalry were small in number, they tore apart Li Wei's position in an instant.

Facing the cavalry clashing left and right, all battalions of the Xiliang Army sent out requests for instructions, but did not receive a reply from Li Wei for a long time.

Soon, someone discovered that Li Wei's personal guard cavalry began to leave the battlefield.

Almost at the same moment, everyone understood the meaning of this.

Li Wei was either dead or seriously injured, unable to continue commanding the battle, and had to leave the army and retreat.

This is a customary rule of the Xiliang Army.

In an instant, more than 3000 people in the front line collapsed, turned around and fled one after another, and no one cared about the other.

Li Ying, who was in the back formation, had just discovered that there had been a change in the front formation. Before he could figure out what was going on, the front formation was in chaos. The cavalry appeared first and rushed past the two sides of the formation. The infantry came one after another, and some went around the formation Go, some directly attack Li Ying's position.

Li Ying was furious and ordered the crossbowmen to shoot. Anyone who dared to attack the position would be killed.

With a sound of "buzz", hundreds of feathered arrows soared into the sky, and then flew down, shooting down the defeated Xiliang army infantry.

Seeing the dense showers ahead, Guo Wu and Yang Feng unanimously chose to give up.

It is an almost impossible task to attack a large formation composed of thousands of infantry with a total of less than two hundred cavalry.

After defeating the front line led by Li Wei and winning the first battle, they have already completed their mission and there is no need to take any more risks.

One of them turned to the left and the other turned to the right, moving forward along Li Ying's formation, chasing and killing Li Wei's already defeated troops, expanding the results of the battle.

Behind them, more than 1000 infantry, in units of hundreds of people, killed the defeated Xiliang army.

They used to belong to Li Jue, but they never got the same status. They were often bullied by the Xiliang army, and they dared not speak out.Now that the first battle has been won, and it is the first time to chase the Xiliang army to kill, it is not to mention how refreshing it is, each of them has the wind under their feet, and their bodies are as light as a swallow.

On the contrary, the captains and village chiefs did not dare to take it lightly. While commanding the subordinates to move forward, they also had to maintain the formation, and at the same time pay close attention to the movement ahead, sweating from nervousness.

There are three or four hundred steps between Li Wei and Li Ying. If they overshoot and bump into Li Ying's front, it is very likely that extreme joy will turn into sorrow.

These have been deduced repeatedly before the battle. They even calculated how many steps forward it is safe to charge, and how to cooperate with the cavalry to maximize the results of the battle without being held back by Li Ying.

Everyone who has done meritorious service thinks that it is not worth losing their lives.

Seeing the figures in front of them gradually thinning out, several captains ordered to stop advancing one after another, reorganize their formation, cover each other according to the order agreed before, and retreat one by one.

They come and go faster, and they don't even want loot all over the place.

Li Ying reined in his mount and looked at the Baibo soldiers in the distance like ebbing tide, feeling horrified in his heart.

Is this really the Baibo thief under Yang Feng's command?

I haven't seen you for a few months, and I can't even recognize him.

After a moment's hesitation, Li Ying gave up his counterattack and ordered to hold his ground tightly, allowing the Baibo army to retreat.

The Baibo army retreated one by one, the infantry went first, and the cavalry covered the two wings, ready to face the possible Xiliang cavalry at any time.After the infantry returned to the formation and re-established their positions, the cavalry returned to the formation one by one.

The infantry put away the boards that served as drawbridges, and the position returned to its original shape.
