Chapter 189 Battle
The long winter has finally passed. Fengyun Shang did not care about his comfort zone and hurried to Yunqi Fortress. After a winter of training, the war will surely reignite. Even if the three kings do not come, Fengyun Shang will lead his troops to fight against the three kings.
As expected, not long after Fengyun Shang arrived at Yunqiguan, he received news that the three kings were coming again with their troops.
It's not that the three kings and the others want to come, but because Fengyun Shang has only occupied Jiuzhou for a few years, and its foundation is not deep. It is not yet the time when Yunshu Kingdom's national power is the strongest. If it is delayed, they can only watch Fengyun.
Shang's strength grew day by day and eventually surpassed them.
It was also because, since Fengyun Shang launched his uprising from Liyang Prefecture, the Chaotian Kingdom had cut off its supplies to the seventeen eastern states. The total army of 1.5 million under the three kings could only rely on the remaining eight states for supplies.
Fengyun Shang's territory in Jiuzhou can only support an army of just over one million people. It is quite difficult for their eight states to support an army of 1.5 million. If the delay continues, Fengyun Shang will collapse from within without attacking.
In the end, war broke out again at Yunqiguan.
This time Fengyun Shang took the initiative to form an array in the wild and set up camp against Yunqi Fortress.
After the last battle, the strength of the three kings has been weakened, and they may not be much stronger than Fengyun Shang. If Fengyun Shang is still cowering in Yunqi Fortress, the initiative of the war will be controlled by the three kings in a certain sense.
, if the three kings' troops are depleted to a critical point and have not captured Yunqiguan, they can take the initiative to retreat.
But things are different when Fengyun Shang leaves Yunqi Fortress. If the three kings retreat, they can stop them in time and effectively.
The commander's tent of the Chinese army was protected in the center. Fengyun Shang was sitting on the main seat. Hearing the shouts outside, Fengyun Shang shook his head softly, smiled, and said, "Someone go and kill him."
The person calling for a fight outside the camp was a master of the golden elixir who had been famous for more than two hundred years. The three kings asked him to call for a fight because they wanted to suppress the morale of Fengyun Shang.
"I am willing to go." Huo Shiyi took a step forward, knelt down on one knee and said, "If you don't win, I will accept the punishment."
Fengyun Shang pushed forward with his right hand, and a soldier brought the warm wine. Huo Shishi was a good drinker, so he naturally took it and drank it down, turned around and strode out.
Not long after Huo Shiyi walked out, he heard the sound of drums. This meant that the two of them were fighting together. After beating the drums, the two still could not tell the winner. Feng Yunshang raised his eyebrows and heard the sound of drums again.
.
Feng Yun Shang put down the bamboo slips in his hands, chuckled and said, "Everyone, there must be a fierce battle outside. Come with me to go out and have a look."
"promise."
Among Fengyun Shang's side, Fengyun Shang himself is the most powerful, followed by Li Zilai, and after Li Zilai, Li Chengzhou and Huo Shiyi are neck and neck. It's hard to say whether they will win or lose without a fight.
Li Chengzhou was superior in terms of qualifications, strong cultivation, and richer experience in fighting enemies. Huo Shiyi was superior in terms of martial arts, barrier-breaking pills, and bravery in combat, but his combat experience was relatively inferior.
Fengyun Shang recognized the golden elixir master who fought with Huo Shishi. He was originally a golden elixir master stationed in Peizhou, but was transferred to the frontier army by the three kings. The styles of the two were quite similar, and they both worked hard.
Saburo's posture. When Huo Shiyi fights against him, it can be said that he is meeting an opponent and a good talent.
Huo Shiyi's situation was actually not that good. He was on defense for seven points and offensive for three points. The jade lion under his crotch was also scarred, and there were even some deep scars visible on the bone.
Feng Yun Shang was about to order the gold medal when he saw Huo Shiyi suddenly jumped up and hit the old Jin Dan's head with the mace in his hand. The Jin Dan master was not afraid at all, he raised his spear and stabbed Huo Shiyi's head.
Each of them had their helmets shot off, chipping off some hair. In a hurry, they picked up the wrong helmets. After staggering them, Huo Shiyi put the helmets on his heads, but they always felt a size too big and a little loose.
He took it off and took a closer look. It turned out that he had taken it by mistake. He laughed loudly and shouted: "Old general, your head is here."
Lao Jindan was not weak either. He put Huo Shiyi's helmet on the tip of his spear and shouted loudly: "General Yunjuan, your head is here."
The two of them each held up each other's helmets and shouted, as if they had really killed their opponent. There was no big expression on Fengyun Shang's face, but the face of Nanyu King was gloomy and terrifying, and he just glanced at Li
His surname was Dong Wang, but he still didn’t say anything.
The two shouted for a while, but found it boring. They were about to open their helmets and fight again, but the sound of ringing gold came from the camp of the three kings. Old Jindan hesitated, and the sound of ringing gold behind him became a little faster, and then he turned around.
The horse headed back to the Three Kings Camp.
Huo Shiyi returned to the camp happily holding Lao Jindan's helmet. Seeing this, Feng Yunshang could only smile helplessly and let him brag with the soldiers of the Yunjuan Army. Huo Shiyi and Lao Jin
It's not a shame for Dan to be beaten like this.
But after Lao Jindan returned to the camp of the three kings, his treatment was not so good. He glared angrily and was about to ask why he withdrew his troops, but he heard Nanyu King say angrily: "The old general captured the merchant in front of the formation.
Huo's helmet looks so heroic and it greatly boosts the morale of our army."
Lao Jindan couldn't hear his tone, especially the words 'greatly boosting the morale of our army' which were even more serious, so he simply snorted and turned around and left.
Although the Jin Dan who is stationed in various states does not have a title, he is actually a servant disciple of Kunlun Mountain in name, and is actually under the jurisdiction of the royal family. If there is really a fight, Old Jin Dan is not afraid of King Nanyu, so naturally he will not
Give him a good look.
King Nanyu's expression turned gloomy again. Among the three kings, he was the least magnanimous, and he had offended many people in his weird ways. His prince had inherited the shadow of his ancestors. In addition to his martial arts, he also had
There's really nothing remarkable about him, he doesn't look like a prince at all.
After the old Jin Dan came back, King Dong Li sent several generals to call for a battle. There were people in the three realms of Jin Dan, Dan Yuan, and Cheng Dan, and each had its own victory or defeat. It was not clear which side had the advantage.
It was like this for several days. Either the Three Kings sent people to call for war, or Fengyun Shang sent people to call for war.
Both sides have made preparations for a long-term stand, accumulating advantages bit by bit. Unless one party has a sure victory, it is impossible to fight on a large scale. The first step is to build up morale, starting with the generals of both sides.
.Although it is not like in popular novels, the defeat of one general means the whole army is defeated, but it is still more important.
Victory and defeat are accumulated bit by bit in this way. Those who are good at fighting have no outstanding achievements. Those who are truly good at fighting can already understand the troops, emotions, battles, and trends, and use them skillfully.
The victory of those who are good at fighting has no miraculous victory, no wisdom and no bravery. Such victory is often not a surprise victory or a frenzy, but a step-by-step, steady and steady attack, integrating the accumulated water into a thousand blades. When the momentum is there, everything will naturally fall into place.
.
Fengyun Shang is still some distance away from this realm, but Li Zilai has already reached this realm.
"Your Majesty, the enemy has retreated." General Liyang's face was dusty, and he knelt on one knee in front of Fengyun Shang and whispered. Fengyun Shang raised his head and glanced at him, and said "Hmm" to indicate that he knew
.
It was not a large-scale attack, just harassment by thousands of cavalry. They retreated as soon as they entered the crossbow range of Fengyun Shang's camp.
Fengyun Shang knew in his heart that this was the Three Kings' party testing his attack point and preparing for the future general attack. Therefore, he specifically gave instructions not to counterattack with all his strength to such an attack and not to expose the attack point.
However, it is also possible that a small team composed of a few elite monks wanted to take advantage of Fengyun Shang's paralysis to attack and kill him. Therefore, Fengyun Shang did not take it lightly, and there were dedicated monks in the camp to keep an eye on him.
If the three kings really dare to stop the elite monks from rushing into the camp, they can completely eat the monks who rush in.
On the surface, it seemed like an ordinary probing attack. In fact, the wrestling between Fengyun Shang and Dongwang Li had already begun. Putting down the bamboo slips, Fengyun Shang stretched out and said with a smile: "General Dongyu and General Yunjuan.
Call."
"promise."
Feng Qiyang's status in the Yunshu Kingdom is rather strange. He only serves as a general of the Eastern Royal Guard and does not hold other official positions. Although it is considered good, it is much worse than Huo Shiyi and others.
This is the result of Fengyun Shang's deliberate suppression. He is not dissatisfied with Feng Qiyang, but just wants him to train more. After becoming emperor, Feng Yunshang has already prepared the position of Minister of War for Feng Qiyang.
"The Dongyu Army went to call the formation, and the Yunjuan Army suppressed the formation." Feng Yun Shang saw the angry look on Huo Shiyi's face, and he laughed and cursed: "I asked you to take the Yunjuan Army to call the formation. Can you beat the Yunjuan Army to me?
The fight is over, it’s not the time for the decisive battle yet, you’ll be the one to fight in the future.”
Huo Shiyi responded happily and went to call the formation together with Feng Qiyang.
In this case, it is no longer a battle of generals, but a battle formation. Both sides send out approximately the same amount of troops to fight between the two camps.
Feng Qiyang was perched high on the chariot, sitting in the center of the battle formation. Firstly, he was in case someone came to capture the king and the thief first, and secondly, he had a better overview of the overall situation and facilitated dispatch.
Feng Qiyang's orders were conveyed to the villages under his command through the messengers at his side, and then to the commanders of the villages.
Every time Feng Qiyang gives an order, the messengers next to him will wave several small flags with colors to convey the order. The large banner behind Feng Qiyang, unless the whole army is attacking or retreating, is usually
It won't be moved easily.
Dahu represents Feng Qiyang, and Feng Qiyang is the center of the battle formation. If the position of Dahu changes, the entire battle formation will change accordingly.
Therefore, in order to prevent the opponent from beheading generals and seizing the flag, those who resist usually have to be good soldiers in the army. But it is not just for this reason. Compared with ordinary flags, the big flag is heavier. If you want to carry the big flag and move freely,
Ordinary soldiers really don't have this ability.
"Report, the enemy's light cavalry is attacking our right wing."
"Report, our left wing is under attack."
The left and right wings were attacked at the same time. Feng Qiyang was not anxious at all. He just said calmly, "Stop advancing, stabilize your position and shoot the incoming enemy."
During the formation battle, the two wings were most vulnerable to attack, so Feng Qiyang deployed many crossbowmen and heavy infantry on the left and right wings. They only attacked with light cavalry, but could not damage the left and right wings.
As expected, after a while, news came that the enemy troops on the left and right wings had retreated, but the light cavalry sent by Feng Qiyang to harass the enemy were also beaten back. The first trial of the encounter was a draw between the two sides. Feng Qiyang ordered to continue
