There was a saying in later generations that every family had a sutra that was difficult to recite. At this time, the Buddha had just understood it under the tree, and the sutra had naturally not been passed on to Jiuzhou. However, this meaning can be used to describe the idea between the commander of Yishi and the commander of Yueren at that time.

King Yi of Yue had to fight this battle, and was forced to fight in a field battle, and even could not avoid the battle.

The Yi Shi's previous actions had already told that King Yi of Yue was dead when he stationed his troops under the city, and King Yi of Yue also had to win, so he had to choose to make an appointment.

From the differences between Wenzhong and Goujian, whether to fight for hegemony in the north or to stick to Wu and Yue, it was difficult for Yue Kingdom to make a decision between going north or going south. Goujian tried to fight for hegemony in the north and after a brief success, what was left to the later King of Yue was endless troubles.

It has been seventy or eighty years since the capital moved to Langya, but many Yue nobles hope to give up the Central Plains to fight for hegemony and return to the mouth of Wuyuejiang River.

If you want to go north or let Yue still have the possibility of going north to the Central Plains to become a part of the Chinese system and become the hegemon, the Sishui River Basin must be fought for.

At this time, the Yellow River had not yet flooded, and the Sishui River Basin was also considered to be the fertile land of the world, second only to the Wei-Zhengzhongyuan, and there were many small countries.

A few years ago, he fought with Qi. Although he was victorious, King Yi of Yue also knew the importance of Yue Kingdom now.

Just as the insulting sentence that the envoy got when he questioned Mozhe Yishi: If Goujian was in Yue, why would it be that as long as the two cities of Jianyang and Juling, three thousand slaves would form an alliance and truce?

There is Qi blocking the northward direction. Whether Qi can be defeated does not depend on Yue, but on whether Qi is civil strife and whether the Three Jins oppress Qi.

Now that the Chu people are suppressed by the Three Jins, the two major countries in the world have not yet been involved in the power of Si. This is the last chance of Yue.

Giving up Si Shang is equivalent to giving up Langya, and the entire Yue people moved back to the former land of Wu and Yue, where they became the marginal country of the Chinese system and gradually declined.

Competing with the nations for a long and short period of time, Yue State does not have this body now. But there is still a chance to stay in the north, and I will wait for the future. If you retreat to the Yangtze River, even hope will be shattered.

The politics and culture of Yue were backward in the Central Plains. The original strategy in Sishui was only relying on force to maintain its advantages. It was strong and when there was no interference from the great powers, it would annex one or two small countries; when there were interference from the great powers, it would support the nobles of the small countries to come to power and deposed the king.

As long as Chu did not fall and Qi was even bigger, the three Jins would always be in alliance with Yue. Yue and Jin had been very close to each other. Several times attacked Qi, Zhao and Wei were the main attackers, and Yue was the Qiufeng.

Since the Gongshu Ban arrived in Chu, Yue State's Zhou Shiliu has no advantage. Fortunately, Chu State has declined in recent years and is now confronting Wei State. Song State has undergone a change in Shangqiu, Zheng State has also had a rebellion in Siziyang, and the Central Plains powers will not be staring at Si Shang for the time being. Zheng State's civil strife is enough to attract the attention of the Three Jins.

This is the last chance of Vietnam.

The original strategy was not wrong, eroding whales, controlling internally, and supporting the nobles of the Vietnamese... But as the Mohist family began to cause trouble in Pei County, the problem became complicated.

Yue's strategy was approaching failure, especially the restoration of Teng's country, which made Yue Wang Yi understand that no matter how he ignored the Mo family, there would be no place for Yue's country to gain a foothold in Si Shang.

In fact, if the Central Plains countries fight for a few more years, they will turn their attention to Si Shang, which is the only place where the Central Plains culture has rich potential that has not been occupied by the great powers. Song, Qi, Yue, and Wei will soon be eyeing here.

Wang Yi of Yue is now very clear that the small Teng Kingdom does not have much real benefits to the Yue Kingdom, but judging from the long-term hegemony strategy, the Teng Kingdom's restoration of the country caused a series of reactions, which was also a signal that the Mohist school began to get involved in the Si Shang.

Si Shang is a good place, but Wei and Chu are unable to compete now. Yue Kingdom is the one who can personally feel the threat of the Mohist school.

If you don’t fight, then wait for the Mo family to dye Si Shang black step by step, and Teng’s country will restore the country. In the eyes of Yue, what is this considered to be a restoration of the country? I wonder if someone was arrested from where he said he was a descendant of the Public Examination. Does he have real power?

To fight, this is the strategic choice that Yue Guo had to make.

Since we need to fight the strategy, how can we fight the entire battle?

Two months ago, I had already given Yue Wang Yi a unique answer: Don’t think about siege the city. If the Mo family defends the city, you can defeat it for a year. But this year, the mobile force that wanders very fast and sieges rapidly will not cut off the food route? Will it not threaten the princes of Si in the rear? Will it not cooperate with the Qi people to attack Langya?

Therefore, in the battle, the only choice is field battle, and it is a field battle with great victory, destroying the main force of the righteous army. Then these cities are dead cities, and even if they spend time, they can always surround them.

When the specific battle is reached, King Yi of Yue must win again, otherwise he will fail strategically: the victory of the Mo family means that the Yue State's strategy of annexing Si Shang was completely broken by the Mo family.

The battle requires both victory and great victory. After observing that the military formation of the Mohist Yishi's military division was a defensive dead formation "counter formations", Wang Yi chose the most threatening offensive direction.

At least, he thought it was a threat.

But when the fight really started, it was completely unexpected. Before the elite troops moved, the Yishi's front was like a sea, and his own attacks were like a splash of water, without any effect.

On the contrary, his left wing was attacked by the righteous army and was on the verge of collapse.

Almost immediately he thought of the main force of the righteous master who was in circles with him, and thought to himself: "The left-wing army must be the elite of the righteous master. Since he has been defending several formations and must not move lightly, he will defeat me on the left-wing."

However, there is no precedent for infantry to change formations and flanks in this world, so he naturally did not expect that his ambition was to eat all his troops and fight an annihilation war.

Actually, he thought it was good, but the infantry facing his left wing and the infantry facing his right wing were not the same system at all.

The infantry he faced with the right wing did have more defense and very poor mobility because he was following the phalanx defense path and cooperated with the first batch of primitive heavy muskets. Even if there was any opportunity on the battlefield, he could not rely on mobility to expand his advantage. He walked too slowly. He walked faster and lost his combat effectiveness.

When the turtle retreated, with the cooperation of musketeers and cannons, the people of Yue had no cavalry or cannons. If they wanted to break the square formation, they had to wait until the year of the monkey and horse month. However, once they moved, problems would arise.

But the six brigades faced by the Left wing belonged to the six brigades who tried to reform the military system of the Mohist elitist. They followed the path of attacking with small square formations and musketeers, which had better mobility and were more suitable for attack.

Mobility means that a brigade can be used as two brigades, and it can be used to fight less when necessary. However, any tactical master and famous general in the world pursue only one thing in his life: through mobilization and formation confrontation on the battlefield, it can be used to fight less when locally.

It was used by three of the six brigades as tactical and mobile cavalry, and King Yi of Yue didn't know.

If the Mohist family continues to continue this mobilization of 27,000 people, it will attract a series of subsequent dissatisfaction in Pei County, so the Mohist family also hopes for a decisive battle, but King Yi of Yue does not know.

The Mohist family needed this battle to become an annihilation battle to force the Yue people to take the next step according to the established strategy at the previous synonym meeting, but Yue Wang Yi did not know.

The Mo family faced the situation where Mo Di was about to die, and needed the result of this battle to integrate the internal conflict, and King Yi of Yue didn't know.

Therefore, the most worried King Yi of Yue, who saw that the situation was not good, threw away the left wing and escaped. King Yi of Yue would not do it.

Because once he did it, it would mean failure. Although it was a small defeat in the battle, it was a big defeat in strategy: the strategy of Yue State and the oppression of the Mo family forced Yue Wang Yi to win and not lose in this battle.

After observing the situation on the battlefield, King Yi of Yue knew that the situation of the battle was changing rapidly, so he made a decision to change his strategy, which was also a decision that would affect the entire situation.

Because he didn't know that his ambition was to wipe out more than 40,000 Yue people's main force in the field of more than 6,000 Junzi Army, so after the right-wing chariot was repelled and the Yishi did not pursue it, Yue Wang Yi judged that the Yishi's left wing was stalked several formations and had no ability to pursue it at all.

This is because of the ambition of information. He did not know that the Mohist family needed an annihilation battle, but believed that all the Mohist family needed was a victory.

So he felt that if it was just for victory, if the left wing of the Yishi Master had the ability to pursue and fight back, he would have fallen into chaos and might have failed.

Since he has not failed yet, the righteous master has not pursued him, so there is only one possibility: his left wing and the right wing of the righteous master are the elite main force of the righteous master, and the main force who has been chased by him for two or three months but has gained nothing. The righteous master wants to take a steady step and rely on the right wing to defeat himself with a goose-shaped formation.

As long as this elite force is wiped out, the Mo family can only choose to defend the city without the strength to bypass the army and attack the rear, cut off the food route, and break through the capital of the vassal state.

Therefore, he made a judgment at the moment when the left wing was in a collapsed dilemma.

Give up the idea of ​​breaking through the left wing junction of the Central Army of the Yi Division and encircling and annihilation of most of the Yi Division.

Instead, he used fierce attack on the right wing of the Yishi Division. He used his numerical advantage to suppress the left wing of the Yishi Division, which could not support the right wing. At the same time, he relied on the absolutely elite gentleman army and most of his troops to annihilate the only offensive Yishi field division.

Changing the formation on the battlefield will bring a lot of chaos, but King Yi of Yue has the judgment that the formation will be successfully transformed.

The left wing and the central army of the Yi Division set up several dead arrays, so as long as the troops already deployed in the front continue to attack and use the vacant space to leave room for deployment and redeployment for the troops surrounding and annihilated the right wing of the Yi Division, then an extremely dangerous formation change can be completed.

The Yishi chose two support points for the defense, which was very disgusting for the Yue people, because the Yue people's army could not be fully expanded. It was meaningless to unfold.

One is the number of Yue people, and the other is the military formation of Yue people is much looser than the dense formation of the rebel division.

Therefore, when maintaining the formation, the more people need a larger space, and the width is limited, so the space required is relatively larger.

The troops that had been deployed in front could not be taken back, so they could only continue to attack, thinking that their main force had freed up space to maintain the formation.

He led the main force of the central army and the elite gentleman army, as well as the archers and all the elites, and attacked the left wing of the Yishi Division. Although it was limited to the sluggish waters, he could still complete a small-scale encirclement, thereby annihilating the elite of this Yishi Division.

As long as the elite troops of the charity who can fight the field and attack and attack the cities and villages can be eliminated, the remaining troops will be a group of dead zombies who can only set up "counter formations" to defend the death. Even if they try their best, they can still rely on besieging the city to capture Tengcheng and establish the hegemony in Sishui in one fell swoop.

Whether Qi State will send troops in the middle depends on this battle: this battle can encircle and annihilate the elite main force of the Yi army and can also siege Tengcheng, so the Vietnamese army is still the "tiger army" and the Qi people dare not move.

On the contrary, if he escapes now, the righteous master may not retreat, and the Yue people in Qi people's eyes are not that scary.

Judging from the fame that the Tian family needs most now, the Tian family needs a victory in a foreign war.

The Wei people were not easy to fight, and the Pingyin Alliance and the battle of Linqiu could not be repaid, and they dared not be repaid.

However, the revenge between Jianyang, Juling and the three thousand Qi slaves can be avenged... As long as this battle is lost, the Qi people will likely take advantage of the confrontation between Wei and Chu and Daliang to send troops to Langya.
