Zhao Shan retreated directly to the military formation and nodded to Li Buyi. Li Buyi decisively gave the order to attack and mobilized 10,000 elite troops to block the frontal attack.
Even if Huang Danqing and Qin Cheng had more troops, Li Buyi was not in a hurry to send them all.
Fighting on the battlefield requires strategy.
Whoever runs out of means first will be the loser. As long as Li Buyi's 10,000 people can hold back Huang Danqing and Qin Cheng. Immediately afterwards, Li Buyi can deploy fresh troops to intervene in the battlefield to further overwhelm the opponent.
Ten thousand people versus more than thirty-four thousand people.
In terms of military strength, there is a slight disparity between Daqian soldiers and horses.
There is not much difference in actual combat effectiveness. The Shence Army is the elite under Li Buyi. They dare to fight and kill. Their weapons are also standard weapons specially made by the Ministry of Industry.
Qin Cheng and Huang Danqing fought independently. Although their forces were united, they could not kill the enemy together or cooperate tacitly, and their forces were not truly elite in a hundred battles.
Just like this, ten thousand Shence troops went into battle. Although they did not defeat Huang Danqing and Qin Cheng, they withstood the pressure and blocked the offensive of Qin Cheng and Huang Danqing.
The two sides fought fiercely.
Li Buyi and Zhao Shan had retreated to the rear and were observing the situation on a high ground. Li Buyi saw the war in his eyes. Although the fighting was very serious, his eyes did not waver.
That's what fighting is like on the battlefield.
If you fight, you will suffer losses.
There are casualties in fighting.
The fighting time passed little by little. Half an hour passed in the blink of an eye. Li Buyi's troops suffered heavy losses. In addition, Huang Danqing and Qin Cheng were very tenacious and gradually gained the upper hand. The Shence Army's defense line was slowly moving back. .
After Li Buyi noticed it, he decisively dispatched another 4,000 cavalry to fight.
This is the cavalry of the Shence Army.
Two thousand cavalry on each side rushed out from the left and right wings and rushed straight to the battlefield.
After the new force of the Shence Army joined the war, the situation of the Shence Army, which had begun to decline, suddenly stabilized. The strength of Huang Danqing and Qin Cheng was hindered and instead suppressed.
In the comparison of forces between the imperial court and local governments, in addition to the combat effectiveness of the army, there is actually a gap in financial and material resources.
Zhao Shan controlled the northwest, north and northeast regions, had many war horses, and the court's finances were good, which led to the army being better equipped and having more cavalry.
Qin Feihu, Kong Shentong and Zhao Yue couldn't do it.
As a result, among the troops led by Qin Cheng and Huang Danqing, the number of cavalry was naturally smaller.
Chang Xun and Xu Ye who were sent out already accounted for the main force of the cavalry. Although there were still some cavalry in the army, they could not be mobilized at will like Li Buyi.
As a result, Li Buyi's four thousand cavalry were thrown into the battlefield, and the situation was reversed in a short time.
Kong Lingyue saw the change in the situation on the tower, frowned deeply, and became nervous in her heart.
The disparity in strength is too great.
She had long known that Zhao Shan was difficult to deal with, so she had been adopting a defensive strategy. Unexpectedly, she was forced to take the initiative by Zhao Shan.
Kong Lingyue watched quietly, but there was still no rescue.
Liu Fuquan could not bear to see this situation. He was worried that Huang Danqing and Qin Cheng would be defeated and flee. Once the two groups of troops evacuated, Liu Fuquan and Kong Lingyue would be unable to control the situation.
Liu Fuquan urged: "General Kong, we can't wait any longer. You still have some elite troops under your command that you haven't sent yet. Quickly dispatch 10,000 troops to the battlefield and rush to the rescue of Huang Danqing and Qin Cheng."
"Not urgent!"
Kong Lingyue waved her hand and said: "Qin Cheng and Huang Danqing haven't asked for help yet, so they don't rush to send troops. Zhao Shan's fighting power is too strong. How can he persist to the end without consuming Zhao Shan's army?"
"Especially Zhao Shan's Mo Dao Camp and Xuan Jia Army haven't gone to war yet."
Liu Fuquan stamped his feet and said, "You are really..."
Kong Lingyue continued to wait, with an expression on his face that never changed at all, like frost that had been hard to melt for thousands of years.
Seeing this, Liu Fuquan could only wait helplessly.
The fighting outside the city continues.
Under the attack of four thousand Shence Army cavalry, Huang Danqing and Qin Cheng further defended, so that even though the Shence Army's offensive was very fierce, they did not break the defense and always blocked the Shence Army's attack.
Li Buyi saw that the situation was still at a stalemate and he had never been able to completely crush the opponent, and a look of surprise flashed in his eyes.
Not simple!
These coalition forces are not weak.
At least the generals leading the troops are not ordinary people.
Li Buyi's eyes were full of fighting spirit, and he once again mobilized 5,000 infantrymen to enter the battlefield.
At this point, the Shence Army mobilized by Li Buyi had reached nearly 20,000 people. Under the suppression of this force, Huang Danqing and Qin Cheng could no longer hold it back.
Qin Cheng and Huang Danqing resisted while arranging people to ask Kong Lingyue for help.
If it were an ordinary person, the two of them would have run away.
However, after the three-party coalition forces converged, the two of them talked with Kong Lingyue. They both knew Kong Lingyue's character and were impressed by Kong Lingyue, so they were willing to stick to it and leave their back to Kong Lingyue.
Kong Lingyue was on the city tower and saw the situation outside the city. In fact, Qin Cheng and Huang Danqing hadn't come to kill them yet. She had already ordered: "Sun Ji!"
"The general is here!"
Sun Ji stepped forward and answered.
Kong Lingyue ordered: "You lead 10,000 elite troops and leave the city immediately to join the battle."
"As you command!"
Sun Ji replied loudly, turned around and went down from the tower.
After Sun Ji quickly left the city tower and led 10,000 elite troops out of the city to fight, Kong Lingyue did not take care of the situation outside the city. Instead, she looked at Liu Fuquan and said, "Emperor Xia, Zhao Shan's troops have also been It’s increasing.”
"Today, almost 20,000 people have participated in the war, and Zhao Shan only has more than 10,000 people around him. I still have more than 7,000 troops under my command, and you still have more than 10,000 troops."
"Now it's time for a showdown."
Kong Lingyue solemnly said: "I will lead the troops to fight, take the left wing and attack in the direction of Zhao Shan. Your army will take the right wing to attack. Zhao Shan will definitely arrange for the Xuanjia Army or Modao Camp to come, and we will go our separate ways. charge."
Liu Fuquan said: "Didn't I just say that I should deal with Modao Camp? With such a charge, how can my troops ensure that they encounter Modao Camp?"
There was a deep disappointment in Kong Lingyue's eyes.
That's what Liu Fuquan is like.
Cherish your life when doing big things, forget your righteousness when you see small gains.
disappoint others.
Kong Lingyue did not break her face, and explained patiently: "Emperor Xia is also a wise man, so he should be able to see that even if I arranged for Sun Ji to enter the battlefield, I would at most stabilize the situation."
"I think if the fighting continues, Sun Ji's troops may not be able to stop Zhao Shan's elite."
"So we can only take the initiative."
Kong Lingyue said: "We took the initiative to disrupt Zhao Shan's arrangement, completely dragging down Zhao Shan's Xuanjia Army and Modao Camp, and dragging down Zhao Shan's other troops. As long as we can win this battle, Everything will be kept until the clouds clear and the moon shines."
Speaking of this, Kong Lingyue said even more excitedly: "Emperor Xia is also a man, is he so greedy for life and afraid of death?"
Liu Fuquan has always been rational.
However, facing Kong Lingyue, he wanted to show off his manliness.
He said loudly: "Ling Yue has said so. How can I refuse anymore? No problem. I will arrange for Pan Gang to lead the troops and kill them directly from the right wing." "
Kong Lingyue felt very uncomfortable.
Ling Yue?
Shouting so close?
Is our relationship like this?
When Zhao Shan called her by her name, Kong Lingyue had no objection at all. At most, she scolded Zhao Shan for being cunning and cunning. But when a greasy man like Liu Fuquan called her, it gave her goosebumps all over her body.
Kong Lingyue didn't want to stay any longer, so she held up her hands and said, "Emperor Xia, I hope both of you and I can win."
After saying that, she went down to the tower with her follower Chuntao.
Liu Fuquan looked at Kong Lingyue's leaving figure, still excited in his heart. Just now he called Kong Lingyue's name, and he called her "Lingyue". The relationship between the two was already very close.
This is the greatest success.
After Zhao Shan was defeated in this battle, he arranged for envoys to go to Qingzhou so that he could marry Kong Shentong and facilitate the marriage of Kong Lingyue.
Liu Fuquan shouted: "Pangang!"
"I'm here!"
Pan Gang answered angrily.
He is big and strong, and is a tiger general on the battlefield. However, he has not been able to participate in the war in several previous battles. To this day, Liu Fuquan no longer retains Pan Gang, but lets Pan Gang lead the troops.
Liu Fuquan ordered: "Pan Gang, you must win when you go here, you must kill the enemy, and don't lose the prestige of our Xia Kingdom."
Pan Gang said loudly: "I will certainly live up to His Majesty's high expectations."
Liu Fuquan nodded, and even reached out and patted Pan Gang on the shoulder to show encouragement.
Pan Gang turned around and went down, leading more than 10,000 elite soldiers of the Xia Kingdom to charge straight to the right wing of Zhao Shan's army.
On the battlefield, Liu Fuquan deployed all his troops.
Li Buyi noticed the situation on the battlefield, his eyes were full of fighting spirit, and he said loudly: "Your Majesty, Kong Lingyue has used all his means. Not only that, Kong Lingyue has used his commander's flag, and Liu Fuquan's generals have also defeated Xia Guoda. flag."
"The last general called for a battle and took Modao Camp and five thousand elite soldiers to deal with the Xia army and defeat the opponent head-on."
"Your Majesty, please give me permission."
Li Buyi no longer takes command.
The whole army started fighting.
It's time to flash the bayonet.
Zhao Shan smiled slightly, nodded and said, "Go ahead."
Li Buyi took his own sword, brought Li Jiye's Modao Battalion and his infantry, and quickly went out to fight, heading straight towards Pan Gang.
Li Buyi's plan was simple. Li Jiye led the Modao Battalion to charge, and five thousand infantrymen were responsible for following and covering up the enemy.
Zhao Shan paid no attention to the fighting situation between Li Buyi and Li Jiye. He looked at Fang Weihu who was following him and said: "Fang Qing, I will lead Zhou Huhou's Xuanjia Army to fight and attack Kong Lingyue's army. Go. I will leave the remaining soldiers under your command, and you can do whatever you want."
Fang Weihu nodded and said, "I accept your order!"
Zhao Shan looked at Gao Yuan again and said, "Gao Yuan, protect the safety of Fang Qing and Yan Zhuo."
Gao Yuan said: "Promise to complete the task."
Zhao Shan nodded slightly, then took Zhou Huhou and three thousand Xuanjia troops, quickly rushed out, and went straight to Kong Lingyue's direction.
The fighting on the battlefield has turned into a mess.
In the scene of a large number of troops fighting, Qin Cheng and Huang Danqing led their men to stop the Shence Army.
Pan Gang and his people met Li Buyi.
Now, the army under Kong Lingyue also encountered Zhao Shan's Xuanjia Army.
Zhao Shan did not use the Long Yuan Sword, but instead raised a big spear. With the spear in his hand, the tip of the spear turned into streaks of light, regardless of harvesting the Kong family soldiers blocking the front.
Zhao Shan's goal was simple, which was to go straight to Kong Lingyue's handsome flag.
The distance between the two sides quickly closed.
When he was less than thirty steps away, Zhao Shan spotted Kong Lingyue first. He swept away a soldier with his spear and said loudly: "Kong Lingyue, I have been waiting for you for a long time. You are finally ready to give up."
The sound was like thunder, resounding in Kong Lingyue's ears.
