(50) Decisive battle

After Liu Qianli returned to Jiezhou, he was just experiencing Bai Yunqi's strength. He never dreamed that Bai Yunqi not only caused him to suffer a great loss in Panlong Mountain, but also ate nearly 50,000 of his troops in Jiezhou City at the same time. At the same time, there were constant reports from the Massacre. Kong Beihai's troops suddenly disappeared, and a large number of troops from Jiangzhou and Yulongguan suddenly appeared near Jiezhou, and the flags in Xiezhou City suddenly doubled.

Liu Qianli smiled helplessly, feeling that he had missed the opportunity, and Bai Yunqi's main force had been forced under his nose at some point. Now there is no better way except for the decisive battle. Duanmu Ming also had the same idea, so they simply waited for it, and while continuing to surround Jiezhou City, they rested the troops and prepared for the decisive battle in full swing.

In fact, they were also afraid of Bai Yunqi's fight, so they fell into the trap of Bai Yunqi's suspicion array, and made a completely wrong estimate of the situation here. In fact, there are no troops in Jiezhou now. Kong Beihai's 300,000 troops will take as long as three days to reach Jiezhou. If Liu Qianli and the others are really determined to fight Bai Yunqi in the past few days, China will really suffer a big loss.

But Bai Yunqi bet on Liu Qianli's mentality. He first sent a team to tie branches behind the horse's butt to run around. The siege of the coalition army saw the dust and sand in the sky from afar, and mistakenly thought it was the support of the Chinese brigade. Then he asked Quan Dayou to erect more battle flags in Jiezhou City to bluff, and once again deceived the siege's eyes, successfully sang an empty city plan, and finally won three days.

When Liu Qianli discovered the truth of the matter, it was too late to regret it. Bai Yunqi took a short rest and sent out a war report and prepared to counterattack.

The rumbling drums woke up the sleeping city of Jiezhou. Bai Yunqi personally delivered a large bucket of braised pork. The soldiers gathered in groups on the grass, ate and drank, and spoke in a low voice. The east finally turned white. The energetic soldiers were bright in swords and armor, neatly arranged in square formations. Bai Yunqi was still wearing a flowing white robe, sitting steadily under the yellow umbrella cover. He was smiling at this moment, but there was a little bitterness hidden behind the smile.

It was about to shed blood again, which was the cruelty he least wanted to see, but had to face again and again. His father died and his brother died. In the battle-hard Bai family army, new faces came and went, and went again and again. It seemed that they were just passers-by in Bai Yunqi's life. Regardless of whether they could fulfill their mission, they would leave decisively.

Things are impermanent, and Bai Yunqi feels that he is no longer the white-faced scholar who was in the past, but a machine that has been transformed into a murderous machine under the baptism of power and hatred. So his heart is a little sad and a little bitter in his smile.

"Brothers, Bai Yunqi swears to the sky to make everyone safe. If any brother is unfortunately killed, I will guarantee that your family will have no worries about food and clothing for the rest of their lives. If there is any violation, it will be like this stone!" He said calmly and suddenly raised his tone. The Sword of Scholar was unsheathed with a "clang" sound. He raised his foot and kicked the huge rock in front of him into mid-air, and raised his body to the ground. After brushing a dozen swords in a row, he had already burst into tears: "Brothers, in this battle today, be sure to successfully retreat the enemy, and then rush to Zhang Chu, then we drink for three days and set off!"

After he landed, he turned his back to everyone and said no more than giving orders to set off. Bai Yunqi did feel true love this time, and offered the most favorable conditions and made an oath, which instantly raised the morale of the entire army to the highest point. You must know that in ancient wars, the lives of soldiers were the least valuable. Their charges were usually caused by blood and death and only after they were terrified by blood and death. After death, the government issued some pensions to the family, and did not take this seriously at all.

Therefore, on the battlefield, most coaches sent a team to threaten their charge by death. But today, Baiyunqi was moved by emotions and offered so high conditions, which basically relieved all the worries of the soldiers.

The white clouds shed tears and the soldiers were immediately infected and tears were immediately infected. A loud and clear sound of the piano suddenly sounded on the platform. Xu Yuyan waved her jade hand lightly and began to sing in a low voice: "Outside the long pavilion, beside the ancient road, the fragrant grass is green all over the sky. The evening breeze blows the willows and flutes sounds, and the sunset mountains are outside the mountains..."

Bai Yunqi even moved his wife out this time, and Kong Beihai and others around him couldn't help but look tight and sank into a tragic atmosphere. This song happened to be sung into the hearts of all the soldiers. For a moment, the crowd was excited and immediately decided to serve the king with death.

Young people are easily moved, and even more so for men with a little bloody nature. After Xu Yuyan's short song, she first took the lead in starting the harmony, and then the chief and deputy commander and all generals under her. When the song began to circulate and repeat to the climax, everyone started singing, and at the same time, the heavy cavalry began to set off.

Liu Qianli never dreamed that Bai Yunqi had not even beat the war drum, and teams of people rushed out singing. The 500,000 soldiers quickly completed the assembly under the city of Jiezhou, and then no command was issued. The chain of horses had already penetrated diagonally like sharp arrows that had taken off the string.

The coalition forces hurriedly ordered the Hun cavalry to come forward to fight, and went out to move 100,000 heavy cavalry at one time. There were only 50,000 serial horses here. They cleverly circled around and then threw the oncoming cavalry back behind. The two cavalry only had a slight contact on the outer ring. The serial horses under Bai Yunqi's subordinates suddenly rushed out of the weak area of ​​the cavalry and approached the main camp of the coalition. The coalition forces did not want to use their heavy cavalry to carry the opponent's serial horses, so they simply ordered their heavy cavalry to rush directly to Bai Yunqi's middle road. As for the 50,000 serial horses coming, they would slowly consume them with bows and arrows and infantry.

On Bai Yunqi's side, nearly 200,000 heavy infantry and archers ran out with rushing cars. They followed the cavalry and took the initiative to catch the enemy's heavy cavalry. After a burst of thunderbolt bullets and bow arrows and crossbow arrows, the heavy cavalry that rushed towards them put away their bows and arrows and raised their sabres.

As soon as the two sides contacted, the soldiers in the front row first formed a wall with rushing chariots to slow down the cavalry. The heavy cavalry swung their swords at the speed of the collision. The heavy infantry on the front raised their shield to block it. Another archer suddenly took out a weapon that looked like a shovel. Under the cover of the shield, they suddenly shoveled the cavalry's hooves. The war horses were so painful that they fell in the air. The heavy cavalry on the horse had no chance to escape and were suppressed by their own war horses. The soldiers holding the shovels immediately pulled him down, and the heavy infantry that cooperated with them began to parry another cavalry.

This is another new move by Bai Yunqi, specifically used to deal with heavy cavalry. As more and more war horses fell in front to block the road, the cavalry's impact speed began to decrease.

"How could Bai Yunqi use infantry to resist my heavy cavalry? This guy is so evil." The coalition was wondering, and suddenly found that his heavy cavalry was falling down and his team began to loosen. He quickly ordered the infantry on the right wing to catch the sweep of the chain horses, and the troops on the middle and left began to slowly push towards the battlefield.

The approach of head-on battle is the most consuming. In just one hour, the number of casualties of the coalition forces exceeded 20,000. The heavy cavalry under Duanmu Ming was the heavy cavalry under Duanmu Ming. They fell down for no reason and were killed. A flesh wall was formed at the intersection of the soldiers and generals of both sides to block the charge of the heavy cavalry. The archers here can even take advantage of their spare time to slap the bow and arrow, which greatly increased the consumption and casualties of the heavy cavalry. Therefore, after destroying more than 10,000 heavy cavalry of Duanmu Ming, their casualties were about 5,000 or 6,000. The 50,000 chain horses there rushed left and right with an absolute advantage. In addition to killing and injured hundreds of people during the handover, they have basically only lost 2,000 horses.

In desperation, Duanmu Ming ordered the heavy cavalry of the vanguard to continue attacking and attacking, and then distributed 50,000 cavalry to meet Bai Yunqi's serial horses.

The battlefield unfolded in the plains under Jiezhou City. As both sides injected forces one after another, the casualties of the war became more and more tragic. On the green plain were full of war horses that lost their masters, corpses that lost their lives, and breathing and crying that were about to die. The battle flags and weapons scattered everywhere were mixed with blood and deafening shouts of killing, which made Bai Yun feel a little dizzy and disgusting.

Both sides have been in war for many years and have a good understanding of each other, so Bai Yunqi basically has no chance to take advantage of tricks this time. First of all, he cannot use mines that specialize in destroying cavalry. But he suddenly took out another secret weapon that he had worked hard on for many years on the battlefield, allowing the original spearmen to use shovels to destroy the enemy's war horses, and basically carried it with the famous Hun cavalry for one-on-one consumption. Then the cavalry here had a place to use it, so in one morning, he exchanged nearly 100,000 lives for the coalition forces with 50,000 injuries.

The battle has come to this point, neither side has any choice. As the main attacking party, the coalition forces cannot retreat. Bai Yunqi has been holding on for so long, just to repel the coalition forces and then counterattack Zhang Chu.

At this time, the Jiangzhou naval army, who was passing by along the water, suddenly appeared on the battlefield. Their joining made Bai Yunqi feel energetic, and the battle situation that was basically flat suddenly showed a one-sided trend. As soon as the Jiangzhou naval army came on the field, they shot crazy bows, arrows and crossbows at the enemy's vanguard. They shot at the horse's eyes, and one shot at one accurate one. In a few minutes, more than a thousand heavy cavalry lost their direction. Some of them ran away in all directions, and some directly entered their own team and were stepped into meat pie. The charge of the heavy cavalry was immediately disintegrated, and the team was basically unable to maintain it.

Seeing this, Duanmu Ming quickly ordered the troops to return to defense. More than 100,000 heavy cavalry retreated like a tide. Bai Yunqi led the team to follow him. After a while, the chain of horses entangled with the enemy suddenly turned around. They rushed back to the heavy cavalry of the Huns with lightning speed and threw Zhang Chu's heavy infantry directly on the spot. Since the horses were covered with iron armor, they did not lose much in their retreat. However, the Huns heavy cavalry here quickly disbanded under the front and back attacks of the Bai family army.

Duanmu Ming felt sorry for his army, so he had to leave more than 20,000 heavy cavalry to deal with Chinese soldiers, and he led a brigade to gallop towards Dingbian. The troops were defeated like a mountain, and they basically did not receive Liu Qianli's cooperation this time, so they left 20,000 troops to retreat towards Dingbian City.

Bai Yunqi was not so easy to talk to this time. He personally led the team and dispatched almost all the heavy cavalry to chase Duanmu Ming's main force. The small number of infantry in Jiezhou was handed over to Kong Beihai to command, and the brigade asked Wu Ming to lead him straight to the direction of Dingbian City.

Speaking of Duanmu Ming, after he withdrew, he did not intend to go far, but waited ten miles away to fight with the cavalry chasing Bai Yunqi. According to his thoughts, his cavalry mainly suffered a loss this time on Bai Yunqi's shovel soldiers. Now he led the cavalry to rush up, which was no matter what, he could not beat the hundreds of thousands of heavy cavalry who were skilled in horse shooting.

Soon, the cavalry that broke the rear retreated. The leader of the leader gave the news: "Report to the prince, Bai Yunqi's brigade has followed."

"Okay!" Duanmu Ming took a break from his busy schedule and his face regained his calmness. Today's battle was really unhappy. Their invincible cavalry unit was defeated by the infantry, which made him feel angry. "Baiyunqi, don't treat me as a general. As long as you dare to chase me, I will bury your cavalry here."

Since the speed of the war horses was far higher than that of manpower, Liu Qianli could only look at Duanmu Ming and fleeing while fighting. He sighed with no strength, and then reorganized his troops to deal with the small number of infantry left behind. Unexpectedly, at this time, the city gate of Jiezhou suddenly opened wide, and about 20,000 cavalry rushed out quickly, leading the team was Quan Dayou.

As soon as they left the city, they headed straight for Liu Qianli's main force. After a fierce rush, they joined Kong Beihai's troops, and then retreated while fighting and retreated to Jiezhou. How could Liu Qianli easily let this team escape? He led the team to cover up the killing. Before he knew it, he had already arrived at the city of Jiezhou, but behind him shouted to kill Lian Tian. It turned out that Bai Yunqi's troops were back!

The army of Jiezhou immediately came to his senses, and Kong Beihai immediately ordered: "Form a counter-offensive formation, defend the center, and the cavalry continue to charge at the main force of the Allied forces."
Chapter completed!
