The Qingshui army was waiting for work, while the Korean army was exhausted from the long-distance attack. At this time, the Qingshui army should be ready to fight and give the enemy a head-on blow.
However, this is not the case.
The Qingshui Army withdrew and ran back!
Seeing this scene, Mingwu laughed and said,
"Hahahaha! A nest of snakes and rats! A nest of snakes and rats! These cowards from the North have never fought any battles. One collapsed at the first touch, and the other ran away before even fighting.
Nie Chen's men are all such timid people. Today I will rely on these 200,000 troops to wipe out Nie Chen's forces in one fell swoop!
Ha ha ha ha! charge! charge! Making great achievements, becoming a marquis and becoming a prime minister is just around the corner! "
Before Ming Wu finished speaking, a lot of stone bullets suddenly appeared in the sky and flew towards them.
"Trebuchet!"
Someone shouted loudly, and the soldiers scattered to avoid them.
But the stone bullets were not so easy to dodge. The more they ran, the more chaotic they became.
The stone bullet hit the ground hard, and then rolled forward. Those who were hit were turned into flesh on the spot, and those who were rolled could not escape the end of fractures and bruises.
Not only were there trebuchets, the infantry in front of the Qingshui Army retreated back, revealing the city-breaking crossbows and army-breaking crossbows that they had blocked.
Those neatly arranged ballistas immediately fired thousands of arrows at the enemy overwhelmingly.
The power of the heavy crossbow is so powerful that one arrow of the broken army crossbow can penetrate two or three people.
This is still the case when the enemy troops are not densely arranged and are very loose.
Those crossbow arrows falling overwhelmingly gave the vanguard a head-on blow and penetrated all the incoming enemies.
This ferocious firepower immediately stunned Mingwu.
But now that the matter has come to this, it is impossible to retreat. We can only bite the bullet and rush forward.
"Charge! Charge forward! Charge in front of them. Their trebuchets and heavy crossbows will no longer work. Charge over!"
"Kill!"
The Korean army rushed forward in a swarm.
"Kill!"
Suddenly, the thundering drums and shouts of death also came from the peaks on both sides.
Ming Wu looked towards the north and south sides, and saw flags fluttering on the mountain peak, and densely packed wind troops all rushed down and attacked the Korean army in the middle.
The army from the south, under the banner of Jinping Army and Liang Zishuai Banner, stormed downwards.
The army from the north, with the banner of Long Xingjun and the banner of Ning Zishuai, roared and charged like a tiger descending from the mountain.
The general from before shouted to Mingwu,
"Commander! No! All the enemy's main forces are here, flanked by Jin Ping's Army and Long Xing's Army. These two are Nie Chen's main battle legions! They are all here, and we have fallen into a trap!"
Mingwu's face turned extremely ugly and he said,
"This is a plan to lure the snake out of its hole!"
"The handsome man is so smart and his calculations are so accurate!"
"I'm sorry, you are complimenting me so much at this time, we will be surrounded soon!"
Mingwu's face was ugly, and he stared at Nie Chen, who was standing on the stage in the distant formation.
At this time, Nie Chen had already gathered with Ouyang Ming and others, standing on the general platform, looking at the battlefield in front of him at leisure.
Weng Qiuchan nervously checked him to see if there were any injuries.
Nie Chen smiled and said,
"Okay, don't look at it. I haven't fought with the enemy at all. I've been walking them around. How could I get hurt?"
Don't look at me, look at the battlefield, we are about to attack their flanks. "
Nie Chen was indeed not injured because he knew that his mission was to attract enemies, not to kill them.
He is the most critical figure. Once he goes to fight among the enemy, the firepower of 200,000 enemy troops will immediately come back to him alone.
He is not Zhou An, and he cannot come and go freely among thousands of troops.
Once he fights the enemy, the enemy will immediately surround him and he will never be able to escape. However, the own army outside will not just watch him die, but will come back to save him.
At that time, the one caught in the urn will not be the enemy, but him, Nie Chen.
Although charging and killing in the chaos of the army is handsome and unrestrained, Nie Chen is the lord, not the general. His task is to lead our army to defeat the enemy, not to kill many enemies with a knife.
Next to Nie Chen, Ouyang Ming and Wang Hao were still standing, while Lin Guang and Zhou An were below, riding horses and holding weapons, followed by a team of 10,000 cavalry, ready to rush to kill the enemy at any time.
Nie Chen asked Ouyang Ming with a smile and said,
"I think the enemy is about to give the order to retreat, and our army will attack their flanks soon. When the time comes, they will be attacked from both sides, and it will be difficult to resist.
It's a pity that even if we surrounded them, their main force was still there and they could still break out. "
"So, let's not let them withdraw."
Ouyang Ming smiled and said,
"Lord, the enemy must be surrounded. We don't want to block the gap to the west of them. Instead, we launch an attack on the enemy from the north, south, southeast, and assume that our troops are insufficient to encircle them. We must attack steadily and step by step. It compresses the enemy's space and consumes the enemy's vitality.
When the enemy sees that there is always a retreat to the west, he will feel confident and will not be in a hurry to retreat, but wants to keep fighting with us.
By the time they reacted, their strength was greatly reduced and they suffered heavy casualties.
By the way, my lord, you and I will stand here, attracting Mingwu's attention and making him want to withdraw but be reluctant to do so. "
"It makes sense. We need to inform Ning Wushuang and Liang Peng immediately and ask them not to surround the enemy."
"Don't worry, we have been notified."
Ouyang Ming smiled.
Nie Chen touched his chin and said,
"On our side, we can pretend to be unsustainable and unable to withstand the impact from time to time to seduce Mingwu to attack us with all his strength."
"Yes, I still have to pretend to be weak in defense, hahahaha..."
Ouyang Ming laughed, not taking the enemy in front of him seriously at all.
On the other side, the Feng Army on both wings finally fought against the Han Army.
On the Korean army's side, due to the pursuit of the Feng army, the formation was extremely chaotic. The archers and spearmen were in a mess, and there was no formation.
As for the wind troops on both wings, the spearmen were in front, arrayed in order, moving forward steadily, advancing steadily, sprinting continuously, stabbing the enemies in front of them to death.
Behind them are the crossbowmen. The crossbowmen are extremely flexible and weave back and forth. When they see an archer on the other side who wants to release an arrow, they immediately raise their repeating crossbow and shoot at them, killing them and protecting the safety of the pikemen.
Further behind are the archers, advancing forward while firing arrows neatly.
The overwhelming and dense rain of arrows was not much less lethal than the output of the heavy crossbowmen. It was extremely powerful. After a rain of arrows, there were very few people left alive.
The archers are responsible for far more than the output, and their power is terrifying, but on the battlefield, the real winner is always the melee infantry.
