rebirth will be hard to find

Wars always come unexpectedly fast. Chu Yi originally thought that the Yan army would need time to deal with the aftermath and appease the morale of the army, but in fact, the Yan people were more proud and impatient than Chu Yi imagined.

The people of Yan State are martial arts, and there are many cavalry in the army, and their combat effectiveness has always been stronger than that of the Chu army.In addition, the Yan army was fighting against the Chu army from the beginning of this national war, and Qi Yang was good at defending. He gave up the city that was not easy to guard, and retreated all the way to Yanyang City, blocking the city gate and holding on. not out.In the eyes of the Yan army, this kind of behavior is fear of war and cowardice, so when facing the Chu army, these Yan people have pride in their hearts.

Last night's night attack on the Yan army suffered heavy losses. Although their morale was greatly hit, many people were even more angry.The actions of the Chu army seemed to them to be a provocation. Not only were the Yan people not afraid of being beaten, but they were eager to fight back.

On the other hand, last night General Wang led a large group of soldiers and horses in a surprise attack. Although he successfully dealt a heavy blow to the Yan army, he also let the commander of the Yan army know one thing - the sealed gate of Yanyang City It's finally open!

The reason why Yanyang City is difficult to conquer is not only because Qi Yang is good at defending, but more importantly, Yanyang City itself has tall buildings and strong terrain.

This is an extremely important pass, connecting the north and the south, and it is also the only way for the Yan army to go south. If they can't get around it, they can only attack the city.But Qi Yang was treacherous and cunning, he gave up so many cities to slow down the footsteps of the Yan army, and when they took the time to take those cities one by one and sent troops to garrison them, and then rushed to Yanyang City, he had already given him too much time to arrange.

What is the effect of blocking the tens of feet of city gates with stones?That's not much different from a city wall!

It is impossible for the wood to break through the gate of Yanyang City, and the city wall of Yanyang City itself is built higher than ordinary cities, and with the advantage of condescending geographical position, it is more difficult to attack the city tower than ordinary cities. More than double.

Even if someone attacked, it would be useless to seize the tower for a while.Because it is impossible for them to open the city gate to lead the army into the city like in the past, a group of people have to move the stones at the gate of the city for a long time, and their troops can only use the ladder to climb from the outside of the city to the tower, and they cannot keep up with the Chu army. troop increase speed.

The commander-in-chief of the Yan army has been blocked by Yanyang City for a month, and countless soldiers died in the siege. Now that he finally saw a gap in the hard tortoise shell, he naturally refused to give up easily.

He was afraid that Qi Yang would block the city gate again, and seeing that the morale of his army was not low, he gave an order, and he didn't even rush to deal with the aftermath, he just ordered the wounded to be sent to the medical tent , hurriedly ordered soldiers and horses to go to Yanyang City, and then lined up outside the city to prepare to attack the city.At this time, it was only an hour before General Wang led the troops back to the city, and the generals had just returned from the main tent, and had not had time to make any arrangements.

In the main tent, after Chu Yi and Cheng Zian finished talking, they were about to take people back to catch up on sleep, when suddenly a messenger came to send a message: "Your Majesty, the Yan army has lined up outside the city and is ready to attack the city! "

When they heard the news, not only Chu Yi, but even Cheng Zian were stunned. Obviously, they didn't expect the Yan army to come to the city so soon.

It was Cheng Zian who reacted first, frowned and said, "General Wang led [-] troops out before, and the Yan people must have guessed that we opened the city gate. They were afraid that we would block the city gate again."

When Chu Yi heard this, he could imagine how aggrieved the commander of the Yan army was before. He obviously had three times the number of the enemy, but he was blocked from attacking every day for a whole month.It's no wonder that this time, as soon as he knew that his opponent was finally willing to go out, he was like a hungry wolf who smelled blood, and immediately wanted to rush up and bite.

Chu Yi didn't plan to block the city gate anymore, as she said before, it's time to fight back now.So she slightly raised her chin at the messenger and said, "Go ahead, prepare for battle, and meet the enemy!"

The messenger promised and hurried away.

Chu Yi turned around after giving the order, and saw Cheng Zian staring at her with burning eyes, as if he wanted to ask for a fight, but he was too worried to speak.

Cheng Zian took people to the Yan Army camp last night and had only rested for half an hour this morning. It would be unwise to let her go to the battlefield at this time.But Chu Yi felt a little helpless when Cheng Zian saw it, so he had no choice but to say, "You can go with me."

Today is Chu Yi's real first battle after his personal conquest. She is not a brave general, she will not lead soldiers to fight in the front, nor is she a wise strategist planning strategies.She is the emperor, she is the symbol, the greatest meaning of Yujia's personal conquest is on the spiritual level, to put it bluntly, it is used as a mascot to boost morale, as long as she appears on the battlefield, the soldiers of Chu State will rush forward screaming.

So in this first battle, Chu Yi must appear on the battlefield, and the place where she appears must be the safest place on the entire battlefield.

*******************************************************************************

The Chu army took up the challenge, and for the first time lined up soldiers and horses to face the Yan army outside Yanyang City.

Chu Yi put on a mighty and eye-catching golden armor and led the army in the rear. The emperor's ostentation was fully displayed, and the bright yellow flag fluttered in the wind, so that the Yan army on the opposite side could see it clearly. He wished he could rush up and capture him The emperor of the enemy country.But before that, what they had to face was Chu's hundreds of thousands of troops.

Cheng Zian put on a light armor and followed Chu Yi. From time to time, Chu Yi would turn his head and whisper to her. The relationship between the two seemed intimate and casual.Although the generals around couldn't hear the conversation between the two, they all said it was true when they saw the situation, so when they faced Cheng Zian later, their attitudes became a little more cautious.

At this time, Cheng Zian naturally didn't know these things, and all she cared about was the current battle situation.In the distance, shortly after the two sides lined up, the front army soon met the enemy's soldiers hand-to-hand.

"Want to go?" Seeing that she was paying attention to the battle situation, Chu Yi asked, and looked towards the distant battlefield after speaking.

To be honest, this is the first time Chu Yi has really faced the war directly.In the previous life, when the rebel army attacked, Chu Jing would be destroyed if he did not attack, Xie Yunqing also opened the palace door to welcome the enemy into the palace, and she lost without even fighting.In the current King Zhao's rebellion, Chu Zhao was at the forefront. Except for seeing some blood and gunpowder when she went up to the tower, she had never faced the bloody battlefield at all.

But at this moment, the young empress stood on the high platform and looked at the distant battlefield, but couldn't help frowning—the distance here is already very far, and those scenes of blood and flesh are actually not visible. It was true, but even so, the smell of blood was already blowing along the wind.The rust-like smell made Chu Yi realize the cruelty of war. There are only three words to describe the battlefield in front of him, and that is "meat grinder"!

Cheng Zian has long been used to this kind of scene, she took a few glances from a distance, and said calmly: "Today's battle situation cannot be changed by one person alone, I am not that powerful, and it is useless to go up .”

This answer made Chu Yi look back at her. Seeing Cheng Zian's seriousness, she was relieved a lot, and said casually: "That's just right, you stay here to protect my safety. Swords have no eyes on this battlefield." .”

Hearing this, Cheng Zian glanced at her quite speechlessly. The surrounding area has long been surrounded by the Chu army like an iron bucket. If she really needed to protect her, it would probably be the Chu army that was completely defeated, and even his own emperor was beaten. Don't care about it? !

But this is clearly not possible!

Chu Yi valued this battle, and so did Qi Yang, so he personally led the troops and stood in front of the battle to command.He understands the importance of morale to an army better than Chu Yi.Now that the emperor's personal conquest is in the rear, he doesn't worry about his own morale, but if he can suppress the opponent's morale, wouldn't it be better?

It is impossible that the battle last night had no impact on the Yan army, but probably the anger has overwhelmed the fear, so they can still be said to be as imposing as a rainbow today.But what if he loses another game on the battlefield?Then the fear that was overwhelmed by anger earlier will explode in an all-round way, and the blow to the morale of the Yan army will not be as simple as one plus one. What is waiting for them may be a real defeat.

Although it cannot be said that success or failure is in this battle, this battle is obviously very important. Qi Yang also took out his housekeeping skills to direct the changes of the army formation, and fought with the enemy.

The command of the leading general on the battlefield often has a strong personal touch, such as Qi Yang, who is good at defending, so even if he faces the enemy head-on, most of the time he will choose to fight steadily.Although this is time-consuming and troublesome, the result is obvious-the Yan army did not respond well, so the losses of the Chu army were not as great as the Yan army, but the advantage on the battlefield was gradually biased towards itself.

Standing in the distance and watching the changes in the army formation, Cheng Zian felt that he had learned a lot.Witnessing a war with your own eyes, or a great battle involving hundreds of thousands of soldiers and horses, what you can learn from it is far beyond the records or explanations in a few sentences in military books.So from the very beginning, she put her mind on the battlefield. At this time, she was fascinated by watching, but she couldn't even care about Chu Yi beside her.

Seeing this, Chu Yi stopped talking to Cheng Zian, and she herself watched from a distance.However, it was probably due to her talent. She had also learned a lot of military tactics with Cheng Zi'an. At this time, looking at the changes in the battle formation, she still felt confused, couldn't see why, and couldn't understand how Cheng Zi'an was. The state of intoxication.

Fortunately, Chu Yi has never been a person who would embarrass herself. She couldn't understand it for a while, so she just watched it for fun.After not commenting or guessing, just stand on the high platform with Fu Jian, put on a dignified and majestic appearance, and be her mascot.

However, regardless of whether Chu Yi is proficient in the art of war or not, and whether he is talented in it, when the changes in the battle situation are obvious enough, and when the Yan army is gradually retreating under Qi Yang's command and attack, everything will be clearly visible.

This time, the victory will be decided!

The author has something to say: The empress on the battlefield...is just a mascot, don't expect it at all!
