In the early morning, thick fog was filled with the fog, and Xiao Daxin, who was retreating south in a panic, fled to a safe area. Seeing that the pursuers had not arrived, his defeated soldiers gradually gathered and finally came to his senses.

The enemy attack at night did not have cavalry, so they were just defeated and had a chance to win!

Xiao Daxin didn't know how to fight, but listened to his generals analyzing the situation of the war and felt that he could still organize troops to counterattack, but he also had to counterattack.

Because if this battle is really defeated, he will be finished.

Xiao Daxin and King Nankang agreed to raise an army and barely put together a large army. They did not expect to invade Jiankang, but at least they had to take Qu'a and force Jiankang's defenders to divide their troops.

In this way, the soldiers of the kings of the upper reaches will be more confident in attacking Jiankang and then confronting the "traitors" across the river.

Then, if they are defeated outside Qu'a's suburbs and the pieced together army collapses, the Jiankang defenders will be able to deal with the soldiers of the kings coming from the upstream.

The other party can delay time, giving the "traitors" the opportunity to mobilize troops south to reinforce Jiankang.

There was chaos last night, and King Nankang's life and death were unknown. Xiao Daxin knew that once he was defeated and fled back to Wuxing, he would just sit and wait for death.

The wait-and-see county magistrates and county magistrates from all over the Three Wus did not respond to him before, and they would not be able to do so afterwards.

Therefore, we must persist. If we can't resist this tone, it will be over.

The hungry Xiao Daxin ate some dry food prepared by his subordinates. Seeing that he had gathered many defeated soldiers, and the surroundings were filled with thick fog, he wanted to fight back.

However, looking at the terrifying soldiers, Xiao Daxin felt that he was not confident enough and knew that if he could not speak out for these soldiers to counterattack, he would not be able to turn the tables.

If you want the soldiers to move, you must first mobilize the generals and the leaders of the "rebel army".

He found several "rebels" leaders and made a wish to make a wish, and he made a very advantageous statement:

The soldiers of the King of South China Sea will arrive in the suburbs of Jiankang soon, so everyone cannot be discouraged and must hold on.

As long as you persist for a few more days, wait until the King of South China enters Jiankang, the overall situation in Jiangnan will be decided. At that time, everyone will be promoted and awarded a title. Wouldn't it be wonderful?

Xiao Daxin's inspiration gave several rebel leaders a little more confidence.

After all, they thought about it when the uprising was in trouble. After the kings of the upper reaches of the Yangtze River rose up, they could reach Jiankang by boat. They were quite sure to confront Li Li across the river.

As for Raozhou on the shore of Pengli Lake, although it is Li Li's hometown, the governor of Raozhou and King Xiao Fan of Poyang would not turn to Li Li.

Therefore, after the soldiers of the upstream kings attacked, it was almost time to go to Jiankang to calculate the date.

Now, although everyone was in a mess, the enemy attacked at night did not chase him out. It was obvious that the opponent was all infantry and had no cavalry and could not chase him.

If you fight back now, you may be able to turn defeat into victory.

After some discussion, Xiao Daxin kept acquitous officials and made wishes, the generals organized their subordinates to start counterattack.

Although everyone had no time to eat and were hungry, the enemy didn't have time to eat, and the troops seemed to be less than their own. Perhaps the Qu'a defenders had not yet left the city to converge with him.

Then, while the opponent has no firm foothold, his side suddenly counterattacks, and his chances of winning are quite good.

Soon, the reorganized soldiers headed towards the camp occupied by the enemy. At this moment, the rising sun rose and the thick mist faded a little, but it still affected people's sight.

In order to boost morale, Xiao Daxin fought back with the army. As he walked, he suddenly thought of someone: his half-sister, Liyang Princess Xiao Miaoqing.

Last night, Xiao Daxin retreated south under the escort of the guards, and did not care about Xiao Miaoqing, so she didn't know whether her sister is dead or alive now.

When Xiao Daxin sighed, he could only focus on the battle that was about to begin.

Soon, the front army fought with the enemy. Then, the opponent discovered that Xiao Daxin's team was "returning" and then lined up in the open space on the south side of the camp to prepare for the battle.

Xiao Daxin didn't understand war, and with the thick fog, he couldn't see the situation of the enemy clearly, so he could only listen to the opinions of the generals.

Based on the observation results, the generals judged that the two sides had similar forces, and their numbers seemed to have a slight advantage. As long as they attacked with all their strength, they had a chance to win.

However, you must beware of the enemy's deception, so once the enemy is defeated and your own side pursues, the formation cannot be messed up.

The battle began quickly, and the two armies confronted each other. Xiao Daxin's troops were in the south and the opponent was in the north. The east side of the battlefield was Yundu and the west side of the hills, so it was not easy to be surrounded by cavalry.

As a result, as soon as the confrontation was met, Xiao Daxin's subordinates found that the enemy's left wing (east wing) was a little "soft". As they fought, they were beaten to slowly retreat.

Gradually, the front lines of the two armies became diagonal: on Xiao Daxin's side, the left wing was still "combating" with the opponent's right wing, the central army obviously broke forward, while the right wing had already broken forward sharply.

The fog became thinner, and Xiao Daxin gradually saw the situation on the battlefield clearly and was very excited to see that his right wing (east wing) was about to "break through" the enemy army formation.

To boost morale, he climbed a mound and raised a big flag so that the soldiers could see the flag and let the soldiers know that the commander was by their side.

After a while, the fog became thinner and suddenly, a tide of shouting broke out on the west side of the battlefield, which scared Xiao Daxin.

Then, he saw his left wing start to stir.

The fog dissipated, and Xiao Daxin, who was stunned, saw clearly the situation on the battlefield:

The enemy army formed a deformed formation, like steps: three parts: east, middle and west, and thin on the east side (the enemy's left wing), as if the first level with the lowest steps.

The middle is slightly thicker (the enemy's central army), as if the steps are second.

The west is very thick (the enemy's right wing is facing Xiao Daxin's left wing), as if the third level with the highest stairs.

On Xiao Daxin's side, the forces of the three armies in the left, center and right are relatively even, so the right wing can break forward, but the left wing can no longer withstand the fierce attack of the enemy's superior forces and begin to loosen.

Once the left wing collapses, the central army that broke out and the right wing that broke out even more suddenly will be threatened by the opponent's flanks and may even be cut off from the rear.

Xiao Daxin, who was in the central army, watched his left wing collapse.

Then, the central army was loose.

The right wing also loosened.

He watched the enemy chasing the defeated soldiers on his front line, causing them to rush backwards to the soldiers in the rear, like rolling up bead curtains, causing the entire army to collapse.

The victory or defeat only reversed in an instant, and the huge contrast made Xiao Daxin's head blank and as stupid as a wooden chicken.

The guards pulled him and ran away. Seeing that Xiao Daxin was stunned and unable to take steps, they quickly helped him onto his horse and ran south with the defeated soldiers.

To the north, Liang Miao breathed a sigh of relief when he saw that his "stair tactics" were successful and the enemy who made a comeback was defeated.

Ladder tactics (trapezoidal formation) are an infantry formation and tactics summarized by the Xuzhou Army, also known as slash (former) tactics.

When the troops are equal or slightly less than the enemy, use them unexpectedly will be effective.

But the premise is that the first level of the ladder, that is, the weakest military formation, and the one that is pulled back must block the enemy's fierce attack, otherwise it will backfire and the one who will defeat it is himself.

Liang Miao had confidence in his subordinates, and the opponent was a mob, and the thick fog was filled in the early morning, so he was not afraid of being able to see through the formation by his opponent, so he played this move.

Sure enough, they successfully defeated the enemy, and then drove away the defeated troops on the front line, repelling the original formation, causing the entire army to collapse, which is called the "rolling of bead curtain".

If the cavalry implements the "reverse bead curtain", the effect will be better.

The sound of horse hooves was heard, and dust was flying in the north. Liang Miao looked at it with a thousand-mile mirror and was completely relieved when he saw that it was his cavalry coming to help.

His plan before the war was to attack the infantry at night, and the cavalry supported it after dawn.

Such cooperation is risky, and once there is a problem with infantry and cavalry cooperation, infantry will be in trouble.

Sure enough, there was a thick fog early this morning, and the cavalry did not dare to attack easily. The infantry that had been fighting all night was unable to pursue the defeated soldiers, and the opponent made a comeback.

The enemy was unwilling to accept failure, and seized the "blank time" before the cavalry converged, and launched a counterattack.

However, it was still futile because Liang Miao responded well.

He arranged for the cavalry to continue pursuing, but he turned back to the enemy's former camp, supervising his subordinates to count the spoils, transfer prisoners, and resettle the enemy's women and children.

Manpower was also needed to take the captured King Nankang and some generals to Jiankang.

While walking, Liang Miao heard the miserable cry. He looked in the sound and saw a woman kneeling on the ground, holding something, crying loudly next to a ruin burned by fire.

When I walked forward and looked closely, it was Princess Liyang who was rescued by the government army last night, holding the body of a charred boy and crying.

Several soldiers stood beside him at a loss. Liang Miao sighed when he saw this.

Last night, the attack was in chaos. His subordinates actually rescued Princess Liyang. After hearing the other party’s experience, Liang Miao sent several soldiers to assist Princess Liyang to find her son.

Or look for the thief accomplices who captured his son.

Now, he looked at the boy's body. Although most of the body was burned, it can be seen from the remaining Jinyi that his identity is unusual.

The jade pendant on the boy's waist was held by the Princess Liyang. I think this child is...

Liang Miao has seen many dead people on the battlefield and many terrifying corpses with death. He has become numb, but the scene in front of him still makes him feel uncomfortable.

The good man just died, but now he is holding his son's body and crying loudly. It's so miserable.
