Chapter 119 Victory in the first battle

.The people who came out from behind the Hu people formation were Zhang Chi's reinforcements.

Qin Bo led the lead in front of him, leading the eight thousand elite soldiers under his command, like a sharp knife to attack the enemy's back.

Unlike modern times, soldiers in ancient times, even the lower-level generals were not very military literacy. They were all commanded by the generals in the army at the last minute. However, at that time, there were no telephones or telescopes, so they could only give a certain combat order first and then issue them layer by layer. Therefore, the role of the general was so obvious in ancient times.

The most taboo thing about marching and fighting is to change orders every day, because this will often make the subordinate soldiers at a loss.

It is precisely because of this that the army's ability to adapt to changes is extremely poor. In the battle of Feishui, Fu Jian's more than 800,000 troops were defeated by the 80,000 Northern Prefecture Army.

For example, the current Hu army was going to attack the city, and the army rushed to Pingwu together, but at this time, an army suddenly broke out from behind and was attacked by the enemy on the back. Even if the general immediately realized that there was someone behind, it was too late to wait until he ordered the entire army to suspend the attack and turn the spearhead backwards.

Qin Bo led the eight thousand elite soldiers to mess up the formation of the Hu people. When these soldiers looked back, Zhang Chi's army rushed over from behind the mountain and could not argue much, so the morale of the army was dispersed first.

Qin Bo was the first to disrupt the enemy's formation, and Zhang Chi's army followed him up like a tiger fighting a rabbit. Ding Yizhi said it right. Zhang Chi's generals were temporarily drawn from various prefectures and counties, because there were many conflicts between the party disputes in the book. Such a mixed army would inevitably be defeated and fled if they faced a strong enemy, but if they faced a weak brigade, these people would inevitably strive to make contributions.

Now he has the advantage in military strength, and Qin Bo rushed forward and had already disrupted the Hu people's formation. This was almost a perfect opportunity to make meritorious contributions. Why are these generals hesitating about? He was afraid that the credit would be stolen by others, and he rushed to break into the enemy's formation.

Poor that those Hu people were preparing to attack Pingwu, and if they captured Pingwu, they could cultivate a little in the city, but they didn't expect that they were suddenly attacked by the enemy. The front army was still rushing towards Pingwu without knowing it, and the rear army suffered first. When the front army reacted and turned the spearhead, the formation had already been dispersed.

In the era of cold weapons, combat is the most important thing to pay attention to a formation and momentum, which will make it clear, but now there is no one of these three conditions.

At this time, Lu Hao quickly ordered the army to turn around and turn back to meet the enemy, but at this time the defeat had already been achieved, so how could it be so easy to reverse?

These people in Pingwu City have already prepared for death. Unexpectedly, reinforcements suddenly descended from the sky and survived in desperate situations. How could these people not be ecstatic?

Taking advantage of your illness, I will kill you. Sun Rubai stood at the top of the city and saw the Hu people in chaos, and shouted excitedly: "Our reinforcements have arrived. Now is the time for us to go out of the city to help the reinforcements kill the Hu people!"

The soldiers in the city hated the Hu people to the core. I don’t know how long I had been waiting for this day. Now, when I heard Sun Rubai’s order, they all raised their swords high, and their hearts were full of excitement. The decadent and declining emotions were swept away. Even the mouth was not so thirsty, and their fighting spirit was rekindled.

Sun Rubai ordered a team of soldiers and opened the city gate and went out.

Being attacked from both sides will undoubtedly make the Hu people defeated even faster.

The formation was already in chaos. Even if Lu Hao had a good plan in his heart, he could not issue it among the chaotic army. At this time, the only choice he could choose was to retreat.

Among the many general orders of the army in ancient times, only the retreat order is best conveyed. Because the commander must first tell the generals, and then convey it downward in layers. No matter which link is involved, it takes time. The retreat can be different, as long as the commander rides a horse and escapes.

Although the general is alone, if he runs alone, ten people will see him, and ten people will see him, and ten people will see him, and one hundred people will run with him. The three armies will throw away their armor and run in a hurry, fearing that they will become a pile of bones here if they run slowly.

This is called defeat.

Most of the Hu people were cavalry with high mobility, so it was not difficult to escape. But those Hu people who did not ride horses to attack the city were killed. There were no father and son on the battlefield, let alone comrades. In just a moment, all those who could escape were gone on horseback and disappeared, and those who could not escape were all corpses all over the ground.

Although I could not catch up with the escaped cavalry in this battle, I roughly estimated that I could not kill tens of thousands of Hu people, and countless Hu people were corpses all over the field in front of Pingwu City.

This is the battlefield.

People who traveled through time were somewhat moved when they saw this scene, but people in the world didn’t think there was anything wrong with this. There was not a few days of peace in the world since the end of the Han Dynasty. Wars were simply too common. For ordinary people, dying due to old age and illness was a blessing, and most people died on the battlefield.

The wars on the country have been chaotic for hundreds of years. How many bones have been buried in this hot land under the feet? Who can tell clearly?

The victory of the first battle was indeed an inspiration for the morale of the army. However, although this battle was won, Zhang Chi knew that it was just the beginning.

The Hu people have only killed tens of thousands of people now. The opponent's general will inevitably lead the remaining soldiers to surrender the Hu people's army. When he faces the head-on attack of the 300,000 troops, how can he fight such an army in his hands?

However, what Zhang Chi is most worried about now is Du Ximing, who is involved in the main role of the Hu people in Fengjiang.

At that time, Zhang Chi and others decided on this strategy in front of Yulei Pass, but they didn't know who should be responsible for involving the main force of the Hu people, Du Ximing volunteered.

In fact, Zhang Chi's men are in great responsibility, and although Qin Bo has 8,000 elite soldiers, only he is familiar with the geography of the book. In addition, Zhang Chi has 10,000 people in Hanxiang's hands, but these people have not received serious training for a few days. How can they deal with the main force of the Hu people? It is true that only Du Ximing can complete this task.

Du Ximing has five thousand new troops brought from Jiankang. These new troops are elite soldiers who have been trained for a long time, and there are also 10,000 refugees who have just been recruited in Ba County.

Of course, these refugees were not good at fighting, but Du Ximing had trained for a while, and these refugees were migrating from the six northern counties, and each of them hated the Hu people to the core. With the five thousand elite soldiers as a guarantee, they could fight.

...

The military and civilians of Pingwu City returned with great victory, and the water source cut off by the Hu people was cleared, and the military and civilians in the city ran around to celebrate.

Most of the cities captured by the Hu people were massacred. Now the people in Pingwu City have been walking around at the gate of hell and then walked back. How could they not be surprised?

Sun Rubai also hurriedly met Zhang Chi and entered Pingwu City, and set up a banquet to invite Zhang Chi and a group of generals.

He did this not because Zhang Chi's official position was high, but because he saved the people all over the city.

Sun Rubai is a good general. Unlike the garrisons of the six northern counties, many garrisons of the six northern counties hurriedly hang seals and escaped because the Hu army was coming. Otherwise, the Hu people would not have fought Pingwu so quickly.

However, Sun Rubai would not do this. He would rather die than abandon the soldiers and people in the city.
