Northern Dynasties Imperial Industry

On the top of the plateau, Wei army officers and soldiers poured out of the formation like a tide. Tens of thousands of fresh troops who had been waiting for battle for a long time rushed down the slope. Two thousand elite cavalry opened the way in front, and the infantry formation connected in the rear.

The prison cart in which Wei Can and other Jinzhou prisoners were sitting was still pushed to the front of the battle formation. Five hundred armored cavalry were responsible for pulling it. The entire battlefield echoed with the shouts of the Wei army: "Jinyang has been conquered, we can't abandon our weapons." kill!"

Although the Wei army's propaganda deliberately confused Jinzhou and Jinyang, it was difficult to sway the enemy's morale with just a few slogans. Although Wei Can and others who served as witnesses were dignitaries of Qi State, they could not guarantee that everyone in the army would know them.

But it is enough for the commanders and generals to know each other. If these people feel panic and suspicion, this emotion will directly infect their subordinates, soldiers and soldiers. Although these people know in their hearts that Wei Can and others are guarding Jinzhou and not Jinyang, but if Jinzhou is lost, Jinyang will be in danger. They are now far away in the northern part of Shangdang, which is blocked by high mountains. Naturally, they are worried about Jinyang. What's the situation?

"King Changle, is what Wei Jun said true or false? Is Jinyang seriously captured by thieves?"

Some generals of the Qi army bravely approached the front of the Wei army's formation and shouted questions at the top of their lungs. However, it is not a discussion at the moment. Their behavior itself has already revealed their panic, and as they shout out, it will only infect more people.

Naturally, the officers and soldiers of the Wei army would not give them the time or opportunity to talk calmly. After defending the camp for most of the day, they finally launched an attack. Accompanied by the exciting sound of war drums, they all wielded weapons and fought bravely towards the enemy.

Li Tai was already fully armed at this time, and personally supervised the formation to fight downwards. The battle flag behind him waved in the wind, which not only pointed out the location of the general to the soldiers, but also promoted the confidence that this battle would be won.

On the other hand, things were not going well in the Qi army's battle formation. Not to mention how shocking the Wei army's heart attack plan was to everyone's hearts, just the fact that its frontline commander Xue Guyan was chased and killed in the formation had already made Qi's army miserable. The military personnel were demoralized, without a unified command, and fell into chaos fighting independently.

"The thief general Xue Guyan is dead, you guys abandon your weapons and don't kill him!"

Xue Guyan's body was picked up high by the Wei army knights with spears, and they ran back and forth between the two fighting fronts shouting.

Under these multiple blows, some soldiers of the Qi army finally couldn't bear it anymore and did not dare to stay on the plateau to continue fighting the enemy. Instead, they withdrew and fled towards the rear.

But now the Qi army has gathered tens of thousands of troops on the Piyuan. The formation is too dense. Even if you want to retreat, it is very difficult. They are crowded in front and behind and trapped in place, screaming loudly and sadly. , so that the riot has not spread to the entire formation.

However, as the large forces of the Wei army rushed forward and began to truly engage in enemy combat, the situation suddenly changed again.

Although there were Qi Army sergeants on the battlefield at this time relying on their survival instincts and fighting under the organization of their respective commanders, they were not the mainstream on the entire front. Most of the sergeants were still frightened and had difficulty concentrating. Yu Zhan.

The officers and soldiers of the Wei army who launched the attack at this time were by no means a weak mob. Both their combat effectiveness and their will to fight were very strong. It was natural that the Qi army was in such a state that it was difficult for them to be an enemy. After a hasty response, after a short period of resistance, a large number of people began to appear. Casualties continued to fall under the butcher's knife of the Wei army.

As the Wei army's front advanced further, those Qi army officers and soldiers who were still resisting the fighting on the battlefield soon found that they were deeply trapped in the enemy's formation. All they could see were ferocious enemy troops. They were slightly lax or lacked strength during the battle. Then, there were immediately chops with random knives!

"The thief is fierce, stand back..."

Under the fierce offensive of the Wei army, the Qi army, which lacked a complete offensive and defensive formation, was immediately at a disadvantage. As casualties increased greatly at the battle site, the frontline soldiers all scrambled to retreat.

As the crowd pushed back and forth and crowded into a ball, it became more difficult to spread out the formation. Even waving weapons to fight the enemy became quite difficult. They could only be driven back by the crowd with the wave of the enemy's butcher knife. .

Because the formation was too dense, the impact of the defeat in the front was quickly reflected back to the rear of the formation. The entire military formation moved backwards, and some soldiers standing on the bank of the Tongtan River were directly squeezed into the river.

"Don't retreat, kill the enemy quickly!"

At this time, the soldiers of the Forbidden Army Baibao Xianbei who were supervising the battle on the south bank still abided by the emperor's order and did not allow these soldiers to retreat to the south bank. Even the soldiers who were squeezed into the river were urged to continue to go ashore to kill the enemy. Dare to If anyone refuses to follow, you should immediately draw your bow and shoot him.

But no matter how fiercely these supervisors tried to stop them, they still couldn't stop the soldiers from fleeing. Not to mention the ferocious offensive of the Wei army, the frontline battle formations were overcrowded and completely out of order, making it difficult to continue fighting. If they continued to stay on the battlefield, what they would see would only be a one-sided massacre!

Ants are greedy for life, let alone humans? When they knew they were invincible and there was no point in continuing the battle, it was certainly impossible for these Qi soldiers to defend the battlefield. Even if they were allowed to retreat to the south bank to reorganize their battle formations, it would be far better than staying on the battlefield crowded to die. ah!

These sergeants were wailing and begging, begging the south bank supervisors to let them go and allow them to go to the south bank to regroup. However, these elite Baibao soldiers only obeyed the emperor's orders. Before His Majesty the Emperor gave the order to release the troops, they were determined not to let them go privately. They still sullenly waved their swords to stop the retreating soldiers.

"Your Majesty, the Qiang thieves are counterattacking very fiercely. The soldiers are all worried about the safety of Jinyang. General Xue Gu is out of the battle again. The situation on the battlefield is really not good. Can the soldiers be allowed to retreat to the south bank temporarily?"

Seeing that the battle on the other side was fierce and the troops on our own side suffered heavy casualties, making it difficult for them to be an enemy, some generals came forward with a worried look on their faces and gave advice.

However, the Qi leader Gao Yang's face was as dark as water at this moment, and he shouted angrily: "Don't retreat, let the Qiang thieves kill them. Even if they kill all the front lines, there are still tens of thousands of troops in the Chinese army! When the swords are blunt and the people are tired, that's it!" When I fight against the thieves, I will tell the front line that those who can kill Wei Can and other scum who have lost their land and humiliated the country will be rewarded greatly!"

Such a reversal of situation on the battlefield naturally made Gao Yang furious. He originally thought that the enemy army wanted to go, including luring passers-by into the formation to encircle and kill them in order to switch to the battle and withdraw. However, it was not until the reserve division brigade of the Wei army rushed towards the front battlefield that he realized that the enemy's target was actually him, and naturally he felt Extremely ashamed and annoyed.

At this time, on the northern battlefield, the Qi army, which had lost the control and organization of their orders, suffered heavy casualties. However, even if they were allowed to come south, it would be difficult to reorganize and go into battle in a short period of time. On the contrary, it would squeeze the current Central Military Division. Travel space.

If these defeated troops are allowed to come south and are attacked one after another by the enemy, the entire Chinese army position will fall into chaos, and it will be even more difficult to fight. At present, the troops on the battlefield are kept on the north bank. Although there are heavy casualties, it also forms a flesh-and-blood barrier to protect the Chinese army. The enemy troops are now coming out in large numbers. If they want to attack the Chinese army, they must break through the battle formation and wait until their troops are strong enough. After a lot of consumption, it's time for the Nan'an division and brigade to fight back!

After once again reaffirming that the North Coast Division and Brigade were not allowed to withdraw, Gao Yang sent an order to the troops on the left and right, asking them to abandon their current positions and gather all the troops that could be mobilized to the Chinese military position for their drive to proceed. The battle of counterattack.

After explaining these things, Gao Yang waved his hand and rejected the proposal of his soldiers to withdraw the Chinese army's tent. He boarded the viewing platform again, looked at the approaching Wei army's tent on the opposite side, with a stern look in his eyes, and drew his sword. Pointing to the direction under the big banner, he shouted in a deep voice: "The winner will be decided in this battle, the Qiang thieves will die!"

Li Tai in the military formation seemed to faintly feel a malicious gaze staring at him. He shook his head and put aside the messy perceptions and illusions on the battlefield. His eyes swept across the entire battlefield and found which part of the enemy was particularly chaotic. Even if He sent soldiers to attack that place and further expanded the chaos.

As for himself, he no longer charges into battle as he did in previous years. Now, his mere presence in the battle formation is a blessing to morale, but if he really wants to go into battle to kill the enemy, most of the time it will only add chaos. Even if there are kills and gains, the benefits brought to the war are not enough to make the soldiers wary.

The casualties caused by the Wei army's continuous ferocious attacks greatly aggravated the chaos of the Qi army's military formation. The sergeants of the Qi army in the battle formation were being harvested like weeds. The enemy's attack and killing had frightened them to death, but what really made them doomed was the infliction of trouble from their own side.

Under the order of Qi Zhu Gaoyang, the war supervising imperial army on the south bank not only did not let the soldiers on the north bank go, but intercepted them more tightly and directly built a new line of defense on the south bank. The soldiers on the north bank were completely abandoned!

After some wailing and begging, what he got in exchange was the swords and riding whips waved high by his own troops. After realizing this, many officers and soldiers of the Qi army on the north bank could not help but roar in despair: "You are fighting to the death for your country, how can you be a bandit? Now that you are being hunted by the enemy, your Majesty did not come to save you, but stayed out of the battle." , why are you so unkind!”

However, these accusations of blood and tears did not receive any response. The imperial troops supervising the battle on the south bank only responded with indifference. Even though some of the Imperial Army soldiers felt compassion and sympathy, when they thought that if they disobeyed the Supreme Military Order, they would have to pay the price with their lives, they could only harden their hearts and turn a deaf ear to Beimian Paoze's lamentations and accusations.

Seeing that there was no hope of escape, many Qi army officers dropped their weapons and surrendered to the Wei army. However, although the Wei army shouted that they should abandon their weapons and not kill them, in order to maintain the rhythm of the attack and not give the Qi army a chance to slow down, they did not stop the offensive and take up positions. Instead, they ordered Qingqi to drive away those who abandoned their weapons and surrendered. To the side of the river bank, and then continued to attack the remaining Qi army.

"I will be innocent if I seek to live. Anyone who blocks me will die!"

There was no way to survive before and after. Compared with the Wei army, which was a life and death enemy, the friendly troops on the south bank who cut off the retreat and abandoned all of them were more hateful. In despair, some Qi army generals simply led the troops around them They rushed straight to the south bank, vowing to break out of a bloody road and fight for a glimmer of life.
