Article 96 of the Final Volume
Tang Yin nodded in understanding. Yin Li's army was not even at 40,000, it would be difficult to fight against the hundred thousand Chuan Army. He said, "General Meng, please go quickly!"
Meng Xiong replied, then cupped his hands towards Tang Yin, and quickly led the Chastity Army out of the city.
Batches after batches of Zhen Jun activated their Qijia City and rushed towards the main battlefield more than twenty kilometers away. At this time, Yin Li led the Zhen Jun army and engaged in an all-out confrontation with the Chuan Army. This was a direct confrontation without any opportunistic tactics.
The battle had just started, and Chen Lihua had already noticed that something was amiss with the rebel army. Compared to the Western Plains, the group of rebel soldiers in front of them were much smaller in strength, but they had already understood how to use their formations.
Unlike regular formations, the rebel army formed groups of several people. Each group would open up some distance between each other, but the distance between them was not too far, and they could take care of each other.
This formation was a little similar to the Fish Scale Formation, but it was different. It could be said that it was designed according to the characteristics of the People of Zhen Country.
If they were to stand in close proximity to the regular array formations, it would definitely restrict the individual People of Zhen Country's ability to display his or her fighting strength. However, the array formations the People of Zhen Country was using right now would allow them to coordinate with each other as a whole, allowing the individual's fighting strength to be maximized, allowing Zhen Jun'er's fighting strength to increase by a whole level compared to before.
Chen Lihua originally thought that the battle between the 90,000 men would end quickly, but when the warriors from both sides started to fight, he realized that the battle was not as simple as he had imagined. The rebel army facing him was not the same type of rebel that he knew.
"General Chen!" Gao Peng watched the battle in front of him and asked in shock, "Are the rebel army using a formation?"
Chen Lihua muttered: "It should be."
"Please forgive me for being a fool. Whether it is in the military manual or in front of the two armies, I have never seen such a strange formation!" Gao Peng frowned, confused.
His words immediately resonated with the other two generals. Feng Yu and Chai Song nodded in agreement. "Yes, General Gao is right. The array used by the rebel army is indeed strange. It's not a formation, but a chaotic battle. I don't understand!
"An army has no regular pattern, water has no regular pattern. A battle array formation is a good one!" Chen Lihua took a deep breath and said, "Looks like the rebel army already has someone guiding them. This battle ?" I'm afraid it will be difficult! "
Just as he was talking, the rear guard of Chuan Army was suddenly in a mess. Chen Lihua and the rest were just about to send people to the back guard to check what was going on, when a soldier of Chuan Soldier ran over first and anxiously reported: "Reporting to the general, something bad has happened.
"Huh?" Hearing that, the faces of Chen Lihua, Gao Peng, Feng Yu, and Chai Song all changed. Could it be that it was really as Yin Li had said, that there were hidden soldiers inside the Qijia City, and they were charging over now?
Without waiting for Chen Lihua to ask, Gao Peng shouted anxiously: "Where are the rebel soldiers? "How many rebel troops are there?"
"Return... Reporting to General Gao, the rebel army seemed to be coming from the direction of the Qijia City. "There are too many rebel soldiers to count. There is no end in sight!" The messenger stammered out.
Aiya! After hearing what the soldier had said, the four generals all thought at the same time: This is bad! It looked like the rebel army wasn't deliberately trying to be mysterious, but was really ambushing heavy soldiers inside the Qijia City. However, they couldn't figure out one thing, where did the rebel army get all these troops from? The rebel army was split up to defend the area. They had split up their forces to attack and take down so many places. Logically speaking, they should have killed quite a number of the rebel army. How could there be more casualties among the rebel army?
Chai Song anxiously said to Chen Lihua: "General Chen, it seems that the two legions of our army guarding Qijia City are not safe, now that the rebel army is attacking from behind, the enemy is at their sides, we cannot continue the fight, we need to retreat quickly!"
Feng Yu shook his head and said: "No, we cannot retreat now. It was with great difficulty that we managed to force the rebel army into a corner, and start a decisive battle. If we retreat now, it would just give the rebel army another chance to catch their breath."
"But if we don't retreat now, the rebel army will attack from the front and the back, and our entire army will be wiped out!"
This commander does not believe that the rebel army will have that many troops. To be able to kill all of our soldiers in the Qijia City in such a short period of time, maybe the rebel army did not come from the Qijia City at all. If we retreat now, the twenty thousand brothers who are left behind in the Qijia City will not be able to survive!
"You want to risk the lives of the entire army just to save twenty thousand men?"
Chai Song and Feng Yu were at a stalemate, Gao Peng had no idea either, he turned and looked at Chen Lihua, and said softly: General Chen, you have to think of an idea, whether to retreat or not, let's fight!
"This... Let me think about it! " Chen Lihua's eyes rolled around non-stop, and for a moment, he knew what to do. After all, he was the commander of four legions that had surrounded and annihilated the rebel army. If he was repelled by the rebel army, he would never be able to raise his head again. After he thought about it, he steeled his heart, clenched his teeth, and was about to order the retreat of his troops, when Feng Yu spoke out first: "General Chen, give me twenty thousand soldiers and horses, I will lead twenty thousand soldiers to fight against the rebel army in the rear. I want to see whether these rebel soldiers fell from the sky or jumped out from the cracks in the rocks!"
"This ?"
"If my magnificent Da Chuan Central Army were to be defeated by a mere rebel army and sent fleeing, you all can lose face. But this marshal cannot afford to lose it. If you all are to retreat, then this marshal vows to fight to the bloody end with the rebel army! " Feng Yu was anxious and angry, his face and ears were flushed red, and his hair was flying.
He muttered to himself for a while, then nodded his head heavily and said: "That's fine, General Feng, I will give you thirty thousand soldiers. If the enemy's forces come from the rear and you find it hard to resist, then immediately retreat. Taking a step back, we can still wait for General Lv You's reinforcements to arrive and join forces with the rebel army.
"Haha ?" Feng Yu laughed out loud, and said haughtily: "Merely a rebel army, what is there to be afraid of?
Under the situation where he was being attacked from the very back and was not willing to retreat, Chen Lihua accepted Feng Yu's request and gave him thirty thousand Chuan Army, allowing him to face the incoming Zhen Jun army from the rear.1
The Zhen Jun who was rushing over from the Qijia City also made a fatal mistake. They didn't come together in formations, but came in batches.
They were worried that Yin Li's side wouldn't be able to stop the main force of the Chuan Army, and that the Chastity Army within the Qijia City would be in a hurry as well. After the large amount of Chastity Army left the city, they didn't wait for the people behind to leave.
However, before they could even gather their forces, they bumped into Feng Yu who was rushing towards them.
Looking at the few Zhen Jun soldiers on the other side, Feng Yu laughed so hard that the corners of his mouth almost fell down to his ears. Was this the so-called rebel army ambush? A hundred thousand more? This was simply the biggest joke in the world. If our side was scared off by such a motley group of people, even Chuan Country would lose face.
He immediately ordered the entire army to march in formation. Archers were sent to the front, and all the enemies that came before them were killed at the same time.
Not long after, at the front of the Chuan Army faction, the corpses of the Chastity Army soldiers stacked upon each other, and it was hard to count how many of them were killed.
Seeing that the Chastity Army was fearlessly charging towards them, Feng Yu laughed out loud. This battle was simply too easy, he had even thought that the rebel army's ambush would be extraordinary, but it turns out that they were all reckless and brainless people.
Feng Yu was secretly pleased with himself. At this time, the leader of the Zhen Jun Army arrived and saw that the Chuan Army in front of him was already ready for battle, while his soldiers were charging forward like headless flies. He immediately ordered for the troops in front to retreat and gather.
Under Meng Xiong's command, the Chastity Army finally stopped their suicidal charge, and the people started to gather at the opposite side of the Chuan Army to form a formation.
At first, the Chastity Army's camp was only a small area, but as more and more soldiers rushed up from the rear, the Chastity Army's camp became bigger and bigger. In the end, the camp's size even surpassed the Chuan Army on the other side.
It was only now that Feng Yu realized that the number of rebel soldiers was far more than he had expected. However, after the senseless attack by the rebel army just now, he did not put the rebel army in his eyes at all. Seeing that the rebel army had completed their formation, he laughed coldly and shouted to the soldiers around him, "Today's battle will be a battle that we will build up through our contributions. "Kill ?"
"Kill ? ?" Feng Yu shouted out a hundred times, and the Chuan Army camp was filled with shouts of slaughter. Very quickly, the archers in the Chuan Army retreated, the shield was pushed to the front, following that, the entire army went into formation and advanced.
Seeing that the other party's Chuan Army was pressing down on him, Meng Xiong raised his long blade high up and roared: "Revenge for the nation, wash away the nation's shame, cut down all the bandits, restore my Zhen Country, kill!"
"KILL ?!" The cries of battle from the Chastity Army's camp echoed throughout the sky.
After that, the two factions advanced in reverse. As they did so, both sides released their arrow formations, and the sounds of arrows piercing through armor rang out one after another on both sides of the camp. From time to time, the soldiers in front of them fell to the ground.
When the two sides came into contact with each other, the close combat officially began.
On the battlefield, the frontliners of both sides were engaged in bloody battles. The men behind them were not idle either, constantly firing arrows at each other. The sounds of weapons colliding with each other, the sound of sharp blades piercing through armor, the whistling of arrows flying back and forth, as well as the screams and screams of people tearing each other down were all connected.
In a situation where both sides' strength and morale were equal, to be able to compete with the Chastity Army, I'm afraid that only the individual legions of Feng Country would be able to do so.
At the start of the battle, it was still difficult for the two sides to determine a victor. But as the battle continued, Chuan Army began to gradually become unable to hold on.
