As a top strategist, knowing the smallest details is a basic ability.

Before the Shu Han battle, Fazheng didn't have much confidence in this battle, and secretly advised Liu Bei to recall Zhuge Liang.

But Liu Bei and he both understood that once Zhuge Liang returned, Xia Jun's goal would be achieved.

At that time, the Eastern Han army in Xiangyang City will inevitably face double the pressure on the Xia army.

If Xiangyang is lost accidentally, the Eastern Han Dynasty will be in danger of a series of collapses, and the national destiny of the entire dynasty may be cut off.

Liu Bei is a descendant of the Western Han Dynasty, but he was born in the Eastern Han Dynasty and also has a strong sense of identification with the Eastern Han Dynasty. So after realizing this, he hesitated for a long time before making up his mind.

Liu Bei held the hilt of the sword at his waist and pondered slightly.

Bang bang bang!

In the battlefield ahead, the archers on both sides fired arrows first, and then the military formation in front of the Qin army opened a gap, and the Qin Nu camp with powerful crossbows appeared from it.

The Qin State claims to be sweeping the world with its cavalry, but in fact the most powerful Qin army is infantry and crossbows, and the cavalry can only be ranked second. At this time, the powerful crossbow formation was controlled by the soldiers of the Qin army. The crossbow arrows penetrated the wind and pierced the air, seeming to form a sonic boom. In an instant, they arrived in front of the Han army's formation.

A large number of crossbow arrows penetrated.

In an instant, there was a bloody storm, and pieces of Han soldiers fell to the ground like harvested wheat.

"Transform into an armored formation!"

Upon seeing this, Jiang Wei stepped forward in person. The Han army's formation surged with energy, causing the soldiers in front to unconsciously change their formations. The shields in the hands of the soldiers and the armor on their bodies formed a dark barrier.

In the sky above the army, the front of the Han army quickly condensed into a huge shield invisible to ordinary people.

The advantage of crossbows over bows and arrows is that they can fire in rapid succession.

When Jiang Wei changed his formation, the Qin army's crossbow formation had fired three rounds in a row.

When the fourth round of crossbow arrows burst through the air, the void seemed to have become thicker, making the crossbow arrows that could have exploded in the air much slower and less lethal...

The generals and soldiers of the Qin Army and the Han Army were both strong. The Qin Army had Meng Tian's Fire Wing Cavalry and the Qin Nu Camp, while the Shu Han Army had the White-Er Soldiers and the Wudang Flying Army. At this time, the Qin Army took the lead in taking out the Qin Nu Camp. Zi had the upper hand.

After Jiang Wei personally mobilized the military formation to block Qin Nu, the infantry of both sides began to engage in close combat.

kill!

Zhang Han led the Qin army's tattooed soldiers to the front. These tattooed soldiers were a death camp composed of Qin's erring soldiers and prisoners. If they wanted to escape their crimes, they had to fight bravely to kill the enemy on the battlefield.

As long as you can behead one person, your sins will be immediately reduced. If you can kill five people without dying, you can become a normal soldier when you return.

And Zhang Han has a lot of experience in leading these soldiers.

He commanded the death camp, like a sharp knife, piercing the enemy's camp... The Han general who faced him was Wei Yan.

Wei Yan was also unwilling to be outdone and personally led his troops to confront Zhang Han.

boom! The invisible qi machines in the void collided with each other. Neither Zhang Han nor Wei Yan were gods in the heavenly realm. Their strength was as different as each other. The head-on fight was like the collision of steel, shooting out countless sparks.

Jiang Wei also faced Wang Ben at this time.

Looking down from a high altitude, the Qin army commanded by Wang Jian was calm and leisurely on the battlefield that spanned tens of miles. After the attack on both wings was contained, the frontal troops began to advance forward.

The Qin army's military formation was extremely tight. Small formations composed of dozens of people combined with each other to form a medium-sized military formation. A large number of medium-sized military formations gathered together to form a mighty large formation.

During hand-to-hand combat, each small formation rotates around each other, like a large number of millstones, strangling the enemy in front of them.

The individual strength of the Han army's soldiers is equal to that of the Qin army.

The troops and horses under the personal command of Jiang Wei and Wei Yan also cooperated tacitly and fought as well as the Qin army.

But apart from where they were stationed, the Han soldiers were in a state of decline.

"The Han army is at a disadvantage!"

In the middle of the Qin army's formation, Yang Dayan and Wu Yong came to this conclusion after watching the battle for a while.

In his eyes, the Qin army of nearly half a million people was integrated under Wang Jian's command. Even the military formations at the edge of the battlefield could operate smoothly, like a huge machine with precise internals and smooth operation.

The majestic army contains unrivaled and unstoppable power.

As for the Han army on the opposite side, he could feel that Guan Yu, the commander-in-chief, was doing his best to command, but there were still many omissions that could not be taken into account.

Among the many famous generals of the Three Kingdoms era, Guan Yu was outstanding. He was good at water warfare, infantry warfare, cavalry, marching and forming formations, and beheading generals and capturing flags. He was an all-rounder.

Coupled with the long and fluttering beard and the majestic figure with a red face like a god, they all left a deep impression on people.

Cao Cao, who has always loved talents, admired Guan Yu the most.

But pushing the time forward two or three hundred years, compared with those famous generals of the Warring States Period who fought countless battles in troubled times, especially the god general Wang Jian who commanded the army to destroy the six kingdoms, Guan Yu was compared in all aspects except his personal strength. .

Just looking at his current command on the battlefield, the 300,000 elite Han troops can only display their strength normally.

The White Tiger Formation mobilized by Wang Jian greatly increased the strength of the already powerful Qin army by several percent.

Another advantage of the Qin army is that it has a large number of troops, 500,000 versus 300,000. The advantage lies with Qin. Under the command of Wang Jian, these soldiers continued to form a situation where more people were fighting against fewer people, but the overall situation was still a situation where more people were fighting against fewer people.

Now the Qin army and the Han army are still in a stalemate.

But according to Yang Dayan's feeling, as long as some time passes and a flaw appears in the Han army's formation, the winner will be decided between the two sides.

In the blink of an eye.

Time flies by quickly, but for the soldiers of the two armies who are fighting, the battlefield is like a boundless purgatory. Their spirits are tense and they are fighting desperately, and their days are like years.

A full two hours passed. After the front parts of the two armies were seriously damaged, the soldiers at the back stepped up and continued to fight.

On the battlefield for dozens of miles, the soldiers of both sides were directly fighting only part of the entire army. Both Wang Jian and Guan Yu had reserve teams in their hands that were always ready to go into battle.

The sun is high and the sun is hot.

The blood on the field was evaporated by the sun and turned into a faint blood mist.

The combination of blood and evil energy covering a hundred miles radius stimulates the mind and makes people unconsciously fall into a bloodthirsty and violent state...

From early morning to noon, neither side allowed the heavenly generals to directly capture and fight each other. The Shu Han side was afraid that the Qin army would take the opportunity to attack the formation during the duel due to lack of troops.

The Qin army was concerned about Guan Yu and Huang Zhong's personal strength, and worried that the fight would lead to the death of their own generals in vain.

So the two sides reached a tacit understanding and decided to win with a large military formation.

In one morning, both sides lost tens of thousands of elite troops... Among them, the Han army, which was at a disadvantage, accounted for more than 60% of the total casualties.

Fa is constantly calculating the casualties.

Looking at the casualties of the Han army, his face was very ugly. These soldiers were all elite soldiers trained by the Shu Han with great effort. The loss of ten or twenty thousand soldiers had already somewhat weakened their vitality.

boom!

When the sun passed high, General Meng Wu led his troops to charge forward and finally broke through the Han army's formation in front of him, opening a gap for the army.

kill! kill!

The soldiers of the Qin army following Meng Wu were like crazy tigers, roaring and shouting, and rushed into the Han army's formation along the crack like a torrent.

The Han soldiers in front of them were suddenly attacked and showed signs of collapse.

"Hahaha, continue to follow me and break through the Han army's formation!"

Meng Wu kept shouting, charging with a long sword, and the Gang Qi went back and forth. A roar of Gang Qi made hundreds of Han troops fall to the ground, as if they were driving unparalleled mowing grass.

He was high-spirited and ready to lead the first victory over the Han army, but suddenly there was a strong warning sign in his heart.

Without thinking, Meng Wu's figure changed.

"die!"

boom! A cold shout suddenly came from the void. Before this cold shout, an indestructible arrow containing the law of divine fire had penetrated the void and arrived in front of Meng Wu.

"Father, be careful..."

In the distance, Meng Tian's pupils shrank extremely, and before the warning sound came out, he saw the arrow hitting Meng Wu.

puff!

Meng Wu's body was blasted dozens of feet away, and then the arrow exploded and turned into a bursting fireball.

Thousands of Qin troops around him suddenly let out shrill screams and were burned to ashes by the flames.

Meng Tian's eyes suddenly turned red, and he jumped into the air and turned into rainbow light, landing in front of Meng Wu. He looked in the direction from which the arrows were whizzing, and saw a Han general holding a powerful attack weapon.

"Huang Zhong!"

Meng Tian's eyes turned cold, containing murderous intent.

There was a groan behind him. Half of Meng Wu's body was covered in blood and flesh, and his whole body was charred. He barely survived by relying on his strong life force. Thanks to his telepathy, he avoided his head before being shot.

Otherwise, if Huang Zhong was hit by an arrow in the head, his head would explode and there would be no chance of survival.

"Father, you go back to the battle to heal your injuries first, and I'll deal with Huang Zhong!"

Meng Tian waved his hand, and Meng Wu's soldiers immediately stepped forward to support Meng Wu and quickly retreated.

Wang Jian, who was in the formation in the distance, saw this scene and acquiesced to Meng Tian's actions.

Before the war started, Wang Jian reminded everyone to be careful of the generals of the Han army, especially the strongest Guan Yu and Huang Zhong. Meng Wu, Wang Ben, and Zhang Han also listened and were very careful when leading their troops to charge.

But Huang Zhong has a strong bow and a pot of arrows, and can shoot deadly arrows at any time, making it difficult for people to guard against.

He, the heavenly archer, was a great threat.

Meng Wu was able to escape with his life. In addition to the warning signs in his heart, there was also the White Tiger Formation used by Wang Jian to suppress and block it, which greatly weakened the magical power of law exerted by Huang Zhong in the arrows.

Otherwise, even if Meng Wu can avoid the vital parts of his head, when the arrow containing the law of divine fire explodes, Meng Wu's whole body will explode...

boom!

Meng Tian didn't hesitate at all. He pulled his hands and a golden spear appeared in his hand. He controlled the spear and stabbed Huang Zhong in the air.

In the void, there seemed to be countless golden cavalry lining up, with endless divine power blessing, firmly locking Huang Zhong's figure.

"Well done!"

Huang Zhong laughed loudly, put away his long bow and replaced it with a broadsword, and faced him unwilling to be outdone.

At this moment.

Basically, the generals of the Qin Army and the Han Army have gone to war.

Yang's eyes were fixed on the fight between the generals on both sides, and he could not take his eyes away, absorbing the experience of the strong men fighting. He was watching the excitement when his sleeves were suddenly pulled.

He withdrew his eyes and looked at Wu Yong questioningly.

Wu Yong frowned tightly and said: "General Yang, did you feel that there seemed to be some changes in the Han army's formation just now, and it was not so rigorous..."

Yang Dayan said: "Meng Wu broke through the Han army's formation. Isn't it normal for the Han army's formation to change and adjust?"

Wu kept scanning the front with his eyes, still feeling a little uneasy.

After Song Jiang took Hua Rong and others from Cao Wei to Daxia, Wu Yong reunited with his former brothers and eldest brother... During this period, in order to make himself more competitive in the Daxia Dynasty, Wu Yong also asked Song Jiang I asked for advice on how to lead troops.

Song Jiang claimed to have obtained the heavenly book left by Jiutian Xuannv. Whether Jiutian Xuannv was true or not is another matter. Speaking of Song Jiang's ability to lead troops, he could be regarded as first-class in the late Northern Song Dynasty. In addition to coveting fame, wealth and official position, Song Jiang's methods of managing politics and leading troops were quite good. It was because his background was too low, which led to a miserable end in the original world.

After Wu Yong asked for advice, he couldn't practice the method of leading troops, but his vision improved a lot.

When he was observing the Han army's formation, he keenly noticed something was wrong.

Yang Dayan was a little disapproving and didn't care.

He didn't see Wang Jian standing under the banner not far away, his eyes suddenly became serious.

After a while.

It was as if the sky was shattered, the Yellow River was rushing thousands of miles away, and the roar of horse hooves could be heard in the distance. In a battlefield with extremely noisy sounds and countless people shouting and fighting, the sound of horse hooves can reach everyone's ears.

Yang Dayan and Wu Yong looked suddenly.

I saw the Han army formation in the far distance separated from it. A general in green robes held a long sword and urged the red horse to run out.

Yang Dayan and the others seemed to be able to clearly see that the other party's slightly squinted eyes seemed to be bursting with cold light. This cold light stung his eyes, made his mind tremble, and his eyes evaded unconsciously.

Uh-huh! Like cutting through the waves, when this figure rushed into the Qin army's formation, the red divine horse suddenly accelerated its speed, and the large number of soldiers blocking it flew backwards.

In an instant, heads were rolling and blood was flying.

"Guan Yu..."

Yang Dayan only felt that the opponent seemed to be overwhelmed by the army, but the opponent instantly broke through many obstacles, with overwhelming force, cutting through a large formation blocking the way.

In a few blinks, the opponent had already rushed into the Chinese army formation.

At this time, Wu Yong realized what was wrong that he just felt. The military strength of the Shu Han was at a disadvantage, and the general's ability to lead troops was not as good as Wang Jian's... All the kings and ministers of the Shu Han knew this.

Therefore, the Shu army, especially Guan Yu, did not even think about relying on on-the-battle command to defeat Wang Jian. He relied on his own strength, the tyrannical strength that could take the head of a general in the midst of thousands of troops.

At this time, the generals of the Qin army were either on both wings or fighting each other. There is only Wang Jian in the Chinese army.

This was Guan Yu's opportunity... Of course he would not think that he could kill a divine general like Wang Jian directly, but as long as he could injure Wang Jian and disrupt the command of the Qin army's central army. The Han army can restore the disadvantage.

At least it can ensure that the Han army and the Qin army will be tied when they join forces, buying time for the Shu Han.

At this time, it was Liu Bei who replaced Guan Yu in commanding the entire army...

Green robe and red horse, holding a long sword.

Guan Yu's momentum exploded at this moment, like a green dragon reaching for its claws from the clouds, its endless edge approaching the Qin army's banner...
