Today the sun is hiding behind the clouds, showing a pale color. There is no wind, it is not cold, and there is a light mist.

As soon as it got dark, the Song army went to the city to call for battle. Soon, the city gates were opened, and Wei Yi led more than two thousand people out of the city to fight.

Before Wei Yi's formation was stable, he heard a horn from the Song army. Chi Yuping rushed out of the formation first, followed closely by Zhang Chi and a hundred fine cavalry. After leaving the formation, there was no hesitation.

He rushed towards Wei Yi, who was under Zhongshuai's banner.

Wei Yi was startled. He had not been a soldier for a long time and had never seen this kind of fighting method. When two armies faced off, it was a common tactic to continuously use small groups of elite cavalry to attack the opponent. But everyone knew that the Chinese army was

Strength is the strongest and also the most difficult

The disrupted cavalry charges into the formation, usually attacking the flanks, or the joint between the two formations. After disrupting the enemy formation, they then press against the enemy's center to achieve their goal. It is really unprecedented to charge directly into the center like this. One hundred cavalry

Are you going to die if you rush here?

With an order, a drum sounded in Wei Yi's formation. The spearmen in front stepped aside, revealing the crossbowmen behind.

The Song Dynasty was an era when a large number of crossbows were used. Under normal circumstances, crossbowmen accounted for 70% of the army, and as many as 80%. Compared with other arms, crossbows are more powerful and more lethal. As long as your formation is not chaotic, the enemy will be defeated.

It was difficult to attack the front of the formation. The Song Army's combat effectiveness was not strong because of its formation and weapons, but because of problems with its personnel, generals, soldiers and systems.

Seeing the Song army rush into the range of the crossbows, there was another drum sound in Wei Yi's formation. Like locusts, arrows rained down from the sky towards the Song army.

Chi Yuping raised the small shield in his hand to block the vital points and rushed straight towards Wei Yi. These hundred elite cavalry were all wearing iron armor. The arrow rain in Wei Yi's formation did not cause much damage. They were still in neat formation.

Rush forward.

It is often said that the enemy can only shoot three arrows. When two armies are fighting, the defender can only shoot three arrows on the way to the cavalry. After shooting three arrows, the troops will engage in hand-to-hand combat and enter a melee. Of course, even in a melee, the crossbowmen can still shoot

Firing arrows. One is to assist the front gunners to shoot the enemies in front of the formation, and the other is to block the enemy's reinforcements. If the attacker cannot rush to disrupt the enemy's formation, he will be surrounded.

Seeing that the Song army's offensive continued unabated, Wei Yi ordered his troops to continue firing arrows and raised his spear. When the Song army was twenty steps away, he gave a loud shout, raised his spear and led his soldiers to kill them.

Chi Yuping put away his shield and raised his gun to face Wei Yi. The cavalry behind him and Wei Yi's soldiers also fought together, causing chaos in front of the formation.

Zhang Chi, who was behind, gently moved his horse to avoid the melee crowd, and took down his bow. Looking at Wei Yi who was fighting with Chi Yuping in front, he took a deep breath. With a sudden shout, he urged the horse to move, and among the crowd

He galloped past. With a volley of arrows in his hand, he fired three arrows in volley, passing through the melee crowd like lightning and shooting straight towards Wei Yi.

Wei Yi heard the sound of the arrow being shot, and knew something was wrong. She blocked the first arrow by feeling with the gun in her hand. She felt a huge shock in her arm, and Wei Yi was frightened to death. Before she could react, another

The two arrows hit one in the chest and one in the abdomen. They directly penetrated the armor and embedded deeply into the flesh.

Seeing Wei Yi's eyes were distracted, Chi Yuping laughed loudly. He took the mace from his back with his right hand and struck Wei Yi on the head with the mace. Before Wei Yi could get off the horse, Chi Yuping took out the steel knife and struck.

His head comes down.

Raising Wei Yi's head high in his hand, Chi Yuping said loudly: "Guardians of Guozhou, your governor's head is here! Do you want to fight again?"

Zhang Chi took a breath and slowly put away the bow. Only then did he feel that his right arm was sore and weak. He had used up all his strength with the three arrows just now. As a general who is good at shooting in the army, Zhang Chi can shoot a three-stone bow. He can shoot a three-stone bow, but

The bow Zhang Chi usually used only had two stones and three buckets. With a three-stone bow, just like now, he would use up all his strength after just a few arrows.

Following Chi Yuping's words, Wei Yi's men slowly stopped fighting. I don't know how long it took, but someone suddenly shouted, and the entire army formation quickly collapsed, and the soldiers fled in all directions.

Li Yanxian looked at the scene on the battlefield and couldn't believe it. An army of nearly ten thousand people collapsed in an instant. It was really too magical. Last night, I discussed the tactics of today's battle with someone, but I didn't expect it.

It will go so smoothly.

At the pre-war meeting last night, everything was discussed clearly: when to march the troops today, how to set up the formation, how to attack, and when Zhang Chi would fire the arrow. The process of killing Wei Yi seemed very simple, but it was not easy to do it. Chi

Yuping was very particular about when to start a fight and what kind of state he should keep Wei Yi in. Especially for Zhang Chi, it was actually very difficult for Zhang Chi to hit Wei Yi with all three arrows in the chaos.

Seeing Wei Yi's troops fleeing in all directions, Wang Xiaolie said to Li Yanxian: "Jing Lue, let's enter the city."

Li Yanxian nodded, and together with Wang Xiaolie, led the army into Guozhou City.

After entering the city gate, Li Yanxian said: "Wei Yi has nearly ten thousand troops. If we let them escape, I'm afraid they will become a disaster!"

Wang Xiaoxing said: "It has been several months since Wu Shu led his army to attack Guozhou. The people around Guozhou have either died or fled, so where are the people left? After arriving here, I ordered Wang Ruohai to organize the attack on the remaining people.

All the people have evacuated south to Dengzhou. Now there is not a single family within thirty miles around Guozhou. These ten thousand people have no food to eat, where are they going to flee to? Just wait a few days and slowly collect them."

Li Yanxian was stunned: "Is that so? There are no people around, so these rebels really have nowhere to go."

Wang Xiaolie nodded: "Most of the people around Shaanzhou and Guozhou have moved south at the beginning of the year, and there were not many of them. After this war, not many people are left. It is better to move them all.

Let this be a dead place."

Li Yanxian nodded silently and did not say a word. The damage caused by war to society cannot be overestimated. In the past few years, Shaanzhou and Guozhou have experienced several wars, leaving only ten houses and nine empty houses. Another battle in the past few months,

The damage is even more severe.

The Jin Army did not pay attention to production. After entering Guanzhong this time, Fuping won a battle and seized a large amount of supplies from the Song Army. With the support of these supplies, the Jin Army was able to quickly spread out in all directions in Shaanxi and pursue the Song Army. It was precisely with this

The damage to these materials was relatively not serious in the Guanzhong area, but not in the Shaanzhou and Guozhou areas.

When they arrived at the state government office and sat down, Wang Xiaolie said to Li Yanxian: "According to the agreement before the war, the two of us will stay in Guozhou and settle near Pingding. Shao Yun and Jia He will lead the troops and horses and go east to capture Shaanxi Province.

If the Jin army's defense is not tight, they can go east from Mianchi and threaten Wu's rear route. Our troops will be led by Wei Yang and Xue Cheng to capture Tongguan. If

If Tongguan can be successfully captured, Wei Yang will go to capture Huazhou and Xue Cheng will capture Tongzhou. After capturing these two places, he will control the Yellow River ferry to the west and threaten Jingzhao Prefecture to the east. He is attacking Qinfeng and Jingzhou.

The two troops, Nian Liduo and Wanyan Huonv, who were originally waiting on the road, were cut off. No matter how arrogant the Jin army is, they must withdraw their troops to deal with us."

Li Yanxian nodded repeatedly: "Yes, when the troops came to Jingzhao Mansion, Nianliduo couldn't sleep well. How could he allow Wushu to come here? After this battle, Wushu would not dare to come east again. He must guard the gold.

The military's back road."

The commander of the Jin army in Shaanxi was the second prince, Nian Liduo. Wushu was only one of his soldiers and horses, and the other wing was Wanyan Huonv. Wushu stayed near Jingzhao Mansion, originally to prevent Li Yanxian from behind and cut off his escape route.
