The Han and Wei armies attacked and defended from the front. At first, the two armies were evenly matched. Since both flanking cavalry were entangled, and the narrow terrain of Weinan did not send large-scale cavalry to fight, the infantry of both sides could only fall into a frontal fierce battle, and no one could break through. local front.

However, as the fighting time lengthens, the sun will rise until noon.Although the soldiers of the Wei army attacked Wuzhangyuan for several days, they were not as energetic as the Han army, but they couldn't bear it. The Wei army had enough troops to rotate.The soldiers of the Han army had only 6000 people, which was difficult to compare with the 7000 people of the Wei army.

Therefore, in such a fierce battle, the insufficient number of the Han army was quickly reflected in the Han army formation. The originally dense front line, due to the tactical reasons of soldier replacement, caused the sparseness of the front line army formation, which became the key to affecting the direction of the battle. reason.

The wealth of the Wei army's strength caused them to maintain the density at the beginning. Although they lacked energy, they still persisted tenaciously under the encouragement of the general.

The former army led by Liu Yin, facing the strongest combat power of the Wei army's middle army, has been tenaciously maintaining the army formation, preventing the Wei army from breaking through the formation.

At this moment, Liu Yin, who was on the front line, only heard a "whoosh", lowered his head subconsciously, and kept slashing his face with a cold arrow, and a burst of pain came.The guards were so frightened that they protected Liu Yin behind them and slowly retreated into the formation.

Although the injury was not serious, there was a lot of blood flow. Seeing this situation, the personal guard tore off the clean cloth and bandaged Liu Yin briefly to stop the bleeding for his general.

The part is long wicker, took off the pocket, walked in front of Liu Yin, and said to him anxiously: "My lord, the bandit army is attacking fiercely. Although our soldiers are brave, they are not strong enough. Please ask for help from the chariot general as soon as possible." Bar!"

Before Liu Tiao finished speaking, Liu Yin waved his hand and vetoed: "This battle is not a decisive battle, but just a preliminary confrontation between our army and the enemy. If you can win, you will advance, if you can't win, you will retreat. Besides, the chariot general said, Act according to his trumpet, judging from the current situation, the general did not send a large army to press him, and he should withdraw when he waits."

As he said that, Liu Yin pointed forward and said in a cold voice: "You lead 50 people, advance to support, maintain the front line, and wait for the military order of the Chinese army. Those who retreat without the military order will be killed without mercy!"

"promise!"

In fact, as Liu Tiao said, how could Huang Quan, who is the commander-in-chief of the army, not know?Not only was the Liu Yin tribe of the former army stubbornly persisting, but Liao Hua and Deng Ai, who were in the left and right armies, were also fighting hard, waiting for their military orders from the Chinese army.

Wu Yi said worriedly, "General Chariots and Cavalry, although the enemy is tired, they are still with our army. Judging from today's situation, our army might as well stop and return to camp, and advance after the reinforcements arrive."

In this battle, Huang Quan himself did not expect to be able to retreat Cao Rui in the first battle, but just wanted to test the true strength of the Wei army, so the number of troops put into the battlefield was relatively small. It is also normal to live.Now there is a new understanding of the army under the command of Cao Rui.So retreating is not out of the question.

Huang Quan pondered for a while, looked at Wu Yi and said, "Since that's the case, the army should retreat. The governor of Guanzhong will lead the central army in the rear, and all the cavalry will cover the front army's retreat. All the troops are orderly and don't panic."

"promise!"

After half a ring, the flag of the Chinese army was waved, and scouts were sent to deliver the information of the Chinese army.After the ministries got the order, Liu Yin arranged the personnel in the back of the palace and ordered the copper gongs to be minted for gold, thinking that the troops would withdraw.

"Ding!"

With the sound of gold ringing, the soldiers of the Han army who were fighting immediately moved closer to the left and right; another sound sounded, signaling the soldiers of all ministries to retreat slowly, exposing the soldiers of the Han army behind the hall.

Immediately after the continuous ringing of gold, the soldiers of the various ministries that had retreated slowly quickly retreated a few steps to leave the battle, then turned around and stood still towards the enemy, and then supported the Han soldiers in the front and rear for the second group until the troops were out of the battle.

The retreat of the army is the most complicated thing in the marching dispatch.What is a soldier worthy of battle does not mean that the soldiers can be praised for their strength in combat, but that the soldiers must remember and be familiar with these changing flag instruments, and they must also train the rigor of the army formation.

Therefore, the elite soldiers in ancient times were not only simple, but also a kind of skilled workers.If the military training of modern college students is applied to ancient military training, there is a high probability that you can only command an army of dozens of people, but cannot command an army of more than a hundred people.If there are talents in the sky, it is not impossible to comprehend the method of commanding an army of ten thousand.After all, even Sun Tzu said in the Art of War, 'Governing the crowd is like governing the few, and the score is also'.

However, if Huang Quan wants to withdraw his troops safely, it also depends on Cao Rui's thoughts.

Seeing Huang Quan's troops retreating slowly, Cao Rui, who was sitting under the hood of a gorgeous car, stood up excitedly, and turned to Jiang Ji, who was in command, and ordered: "I will pass on my order, and the whole army will pursue it. Don't let the Shu army go." .”

"Your Majesty, the flag of the Shu army is not in disarray. After the cavalry is overwhelmed, the army is in good order. It is not a sign of defeat. Although our soldiers have won, many of them are weak. It is better to rest for a while." Wei Zhen remonstrated.

Cao Rui waved his hand and said, "I'm not someone who doesn't know soldiers. Now that the enemy's army is defeated, the soldiers can gain merit. Why don't you want to? Please don't talk too much, just wait for our army to win and return to the camp."

Jiang Ji hesitated for a while, but still waved the military flag to signal pursuit, and sent scouts to convey the military order to prevent the Han army from setting up an ambush.

Facing the retreat of the Han army, the soldiers of the Wei army cheered loudly, forgetting their fatigue for a while, and rushed forward one after another, with momentum surging.In contrast, the soldiers of the Han army lost their momentum and could only retreat while fighting.

The Qingjiawei led by Xiang Yu entered the arena, galloped behind the formation, intimidating the soldiers of the Wei army from going forward, rescued the Han army who retreated slowly behind the highness, and went towards the cavalry soldiers of the Wei army who were trying to press up on both sides.The tens of thousands of cavalry soldiers of the Han army did not evacuate first, but stayed on both sides of the army to cover the retreat of the army, and counterattacked the cavalry soldiers of the Wei army who were trying to attack on the two wings.

The soldiers of the Wei army chased forward with a loose and well-shaped army formation. Seeing the credit at their fingertips, the soldiers of the Wei army ran with all their strength, and the Han and Wei armies began to compete with each other.

Cao Rui stood up and pointed out triumphantly: "Although the bandit army is brave, they are not as numerous as our army. How can they reach our army's infantry and attack by force. They are superior to me, and this statement is true."

Since the army marched, they have gained a lot, but Cao Rui is still quite afraid of Huang Quan, after all, this general will be the one who flooded his warehouse.

Facing Huang Quan's advance, after careful consideration, Cao Rui thought that if he could not win by outnumbering at this time, how would he fight when the follow-up Shu army arrived?

So he decided to lead the army to attack, and now he can win the battle against Huang Quan, how can he be unhappy?With today's situation, if Huang Quan was defeated, Cao Rui would not dare to pursue him, fearing that he would be cheated.Today is a retreat, but it makes him feel relieved to march, after all, the formation of the army is still not dispersed.

Cao Rui looked at the soldiers of the Wei army who were pressing forward, and was very excited. He drew his sword and pointed forward, and said in a deep voice: "Move forward, I will follow the soldiers to pursue the Shu army together."

"promise!"
