Chapter 828 Dilemma
October 12th, Anzhou, the west bank of Wuli River.
Around noon, on the avenue about ten miles away from Jinkou, the two armies fought each other, with drums and trumpets noisy, flags flying, arrows like rain, war horses rushing, hooves like thunder, and killing sounds shook the sky.
Han Shiyan is worthy of being a famous general. He has been through the battlefield for a long time and has rich combat experience. He believes that the enemy left behind on the west bank of the Wulishui River did not dare to defend Jinkou to the death. The Xi people had no chance of winning in a passive battle in a passive situation. Only by taking the initiative and using the advantages of the horse army to fight to the death can we turn passive into initiative and be able to defend Jinkou. Therefore, his strategy is to quickly approach Jinkou and force the enemy troops in Jinkou to fight hastily. The Xi people panicked and were anxious to find out the opponent's deployment. If they rushed up and fight, they would definitely fall into the calculations of the Middle-earth people.
According to Han Shiye's deployment, this attack was centered by the Leopard Cavalry and advanced head-on to attract the enemy; Jingjiang Liujin Fei and Erzhu Tianxiao led more than 1,000 cavalry of the Fourth Thunder Army to the left, and feint attacked on the flanks to restrain the enemy; Mengba and Woye led more than 3,000 Xihewang tribes to control Xian on the right, and the flanks to attack, and caught the enemy off guard. This is exactly what Mengba and Woye were angry. The Xihewang tribe will definitely suffer heavy losses. Han Shiye's plan clearly aims to drive the Xi people to kill each other. Regardless of the enemy or allies, as long as they are Xi people, they are all in Han Shiye's attack.
Jing Jiang Liujinfei was unwilling to provoke Han Shiyan's authority, so he had to appease the King of the King of the Wuhe tribe and make a solemn promise to Mengba and Woye. After the battle began, they would attack on the flanks and attack with the King of the Wuhe tribe, and would never fight passively or slacking off, nor would they play any feint attacks. Now everyone is eating in the same pot. Although the hatred of the past cannot be resolved, facing a common enemy, only by uniting and working together can we seek common interests, otherwise it will be self-destruction. Jing Jiang Liujinfei's sincerity slightly alleviated the resentment of Mengba and Woye. Both sides agreed to fight side by side and share life and death.
However, on the battlefield, Han Shiye suddenly ordered the adjustment of the deployment. The Leopard Cavalry was in the center to defend against the enemy, while the Cavalry was divided into two. Jingjiang Liujin Fei and Woye led more than 2,000 cavalry to the left, Mengba took more than 2,000 control strings to the right, attacking left and right, giving the enemy a head-on attack.
After receiving the order, Mengba, Woye, Jingjiang Liujinfei, Erzhu Tianxiao and other horse generals suddenly realized that Han Shiyan had a plan, but he did not trust the horse army. Whether it was the Xi tribe of the Xihewang tribe led by Mengba or the horse thieves and bandits led by Jingjiang Liujinfei, he did not trust it. He was worried about traitors, so he deliberately deceiving it.
Han Shiyan told the generals of the horse army that the mission of the left and right attacks is not to fight to the death with the enemy's control string, but to split. The left and right armies are speeding back and forth, interspersing and splitting again and again, forcing the enemy's control string to lose speed and the charge formation, and then the opponent is in chaos, spinning around like a headless fly, becoming the target of the crossbowmen of the Leopard Cavalry Army. The infantry can play its greatest advantage, cover the enemy with arrow formation again and again, and then achieve the goal of defeating the enemy at the minimum cost.
Han Shiyan sternly warned Meng Ba and others to strictly enforce orders, and do not lose their minds because of the red eyes of killing, and do not fight with the enemy with their lives to consume. Anyone who violates the order will be severely punished. In addition, whoever suffers the greatest damage to the war will have the least contribution, and will even be punished.
Mengba and Woye's resentment disappeared and they were ashamed. Jing Jiang Liujinfei and Erzhu Tianxiao also secretly admired him and had a new understanding of Han Shiyan. This powerful Middle-earth general was indeed well-known. Although he was arrogant and arrogant, he moved forward on the battlefield and was full of domineeringness.
Under Han Shiye's command, more than 7,000 horse and infantry soldiers of the alliance were ordered and cooperated tacitly to maximize their combat effectiveness. On the other hand, the Xi army had already responded hastily and was not prepared enough, while the President Ah Changsheng was in chaos, and his command was incompetent, and he made many mistakes. The result is conceivable that the Xi army fought very passively and was suppressed by the alliance army. As time goes by, the losses became increasingly greater and greater, and he retreated step by step, and was in danger.
About two hours later, the Xi army retreated to Tianjinkou, with nearly half of the losses. The soldiers relied on their unyielding fighting spirit to persist, but this persistence could not change the result. The defeat was decided, and it was only a matter of time before the entire army was wiped out.
"Reinforcements, where are the reinforcements?" President A was furious and roared at Feng Hong, "Why didn't Gu Yu cross the river? There are three thousand string controls on the other side, why don't you save me when you die?"
Feng Hong looked depressed and silent. The Middle-earth people were too strong and had too many troops. There were nearly 10,000 troops on the battlefield in front of him, and there must be a reserve army behind him. The Xi army was not an opponent at all. There was basically no suspense in this battle. Even if Gu Yu Tech crossed the river with three thousand control strings on the other side, it could not reverse the situation, and only increased more casualties. More importantly, the fall of Jinkou, Ah Hui and the main army of the Xi tribe were cut off, and they were surrounded by the Middle-earth people. From the current situation
From the development, the Middle-earth people obviously carefully laid a plan, with the purpose of annihilation of the main army of Ah Hui and Xi tribes, so their hope of breaking through is very slim. Since that is the case, why did Gu Yu Shu cross the river? Instead of being wiped out by the west bank of the Wuli River, it is better to stick to the east bank, so that once Ah Hui breaks out, he can still respond. If the situation deteriorates, Ah Hui will be wiped out, Gu Yu Shu will withdraw back to the Qijin Mountain with these three thousand strings, and Shide's troops also have the capital to bargain with the Middle-earth people.
"Cross the river immediately for help." President Ah Sheng lost control and shouted loudly, "Tell Gu Yu Shu that if he doesn't cross the river to help, I will kill him and kill the slaughter room."
Feng Hong smiled helplessly, whispered a few words, and then said seriously, "Transfer, cross the river and evacuate immediately, evacuate one by one."
"No, I won't retreat, I will stick to Jinkou." President A shouted loudly, "I will live and die with Jinkou."

October 12th, Anzhou, Maogouchuan.
In the afternoon, fierce battles were in full swing on the Maogouchuan battlefield.
The Xi army turned around and broke through the siege. In order to break through the obstruction of the Middle-Turkish army, the troops controlled the strings and fought hard at all costs.
Yue Gao commanded the Third Army of the Alliance and the Second Thunder Army of the Thunder Army to intercept it. At the same time, Li Fengyun commanded the Second, the Fourth Army of the Alliance and the First Thunder Army of the Thunder Army followed and chased. Tens of thousands of soldiers of the Alliance roared up, covering the sky and covering the sky, with arrows covering the sky and the sound of killing shocking the earth.
The Xi army was surrounded, and the soldiers rushed left and right, killing flesh and blood, but they could not break through the siege. As time continued, the losses became greater and greater, morale became increasingly sluggish, and their combat effectiveness plummeted.
As dusk became darker and dusk was approaching, the Ahui was summoning the chiefs of various tribes to seek their opinions, whether to continue breaking through and fighting overnight, or to give up breaking through, stop fighting, and surrender to the Middle-earth people.
After a day of bloody battle, seeing thousands of soldiers casualties, facing tens of thousands of fear and despair, the four tribal chiefs of Mo Hehuang, Chuheyuan, Qieheshan and Ahhuibuer, who had insisted on breaking through, had to face the cruel appearance and continue to fight. Even if they paid a heavy price to break through, they still could not escape the pursuit of the Middle-Turkish army. Then there was the natural obstacle of the Wu Lie River. At that time, the Xi army soldiers who were dying and dying still had the ability to fight back? The answer was obviously no. The Xi army was very likely to be wiped out on the west bank of the Wu Lie River, and the Xi clan was in danger of extermination.
"We still have a chance." Ah Huibul refused to surrender. "There are more than 6,000 left-behind troops on both sides of the Wulishui River. As long as they go north in time to provide assistance, cooperate with us inside and outside, and attack us from the front and back, they will be able to break through."
"This hope is very slim." Ah Hui sighed, "Since the Middle-earth people carefully planned to encircle and annihilate us, of course they will consider that we have the possibility of breaking through. For this reason, while surrounding us, they will inevitably attack the Wulishui with partial troops and cut off our retreat."
"This possibility does exist, but from today's battle, the army used by the Middle-earth people to surround us only has more than 20,000 people, and there is no great advantage. If they do not have terrain advantages, we are fully capable of breaking through the siege." Mo Hehuang raised a question, "Under normal circumstances, if the Middle-earth people want to encircle and annihilate us, they will inevitably mobilize several times my troops. However, in terms of the current situation, the Middle-earth people do not have an absolute advantage in military strength, and now they rely only on geographical advantage to temporarily trap us. Based on this, can we assume that in the unfavorable situation of fighting on both sides, the Middle-earth people can only mobilize so many troops to attack us, do their best to consume us, and use heavy damage and repel us as their ultimate goal. In other words, the Middle-earth people do not have extra troops to attack the Wuliu Water. The Wuliu Water is still safe. We may see the arrival of the rescue army tomorrow."
Ah Hui was silent.
The chiefs were unwilling to surrender, which was understandable. At this time, surrender was the fish on the chopping board, and there was no room for bargaining. However, the breakout battle was too difficult and the losses were too great, so the chiefs could not afford it. In comparison, the Middle-earth people could afford this loss. The army in the Great Wall was huge, and the loss of 10,000 or 20,000 people was nothing to Zhongtu. But for the Xi tribe, the consequences of paying such a heavy price were too serious. If it was not done well, it would be the destruction of the clan, so the chiefs did not dare to continue fighting, so they held a little luck, wanted to delay, and hoped for the miracle to appear.
"We want to delay, but the Middle-earth people must fight and decide quickly." Qi Geheshan glanced at Ah Huizheng and said, "Master, you must think of a safe way to get us through the siege."
Ah Hui nodded. He neither surrendered nor had to wait for a truce. The only way was to send someone to surrender. While pretending to negotiate, inquire about the details of the Middle-earth people, and buy time for himself. However, this plan was too clumsy and the Middle-earth people could see through it at a glance. How could they fall into the trap? But now that things have come to this point, I will be a slaughter. I will send someone to surrender first, and then take a step.
