On the flat ground of the Shangchuan Valley, the Ming army also lined up early.What was waiting for He Jin there was another larger character array.He Jin was angry in his heart, and he didn't have the heart to fight against the Ming army at all, he just wanted to fight quickly.He ordered all the cavalry to charge, and the infantry followed closely.This time, the Ming army had experience, and the first phalanx was full of archers, lined up in three columns, and ten thousand arrows were fired at once, and the cavalry of the Shun army suffered heavy casualties.After the archers finished their arrows, they quickly withdrew from the battlefield from the gap between the two phalanxes behind them and ran towards the slopes on either side.After the archers finished withdrawing, the two phalanxes in the back immediately merged into a large array, erected shields, and blocked the cavalry assault of the Dashun army.The Dashun cavalry was blocked, and the archers on the surrounding hillsides once again fired thousands of arrows, and the cavalry fell off their horses one after another, unable to resist, and fled backwards.He Jin looked at the chaotic cavalry battalion with heavy casualties, and suddenly realized that Wang Shuo was going to consume his cavalry and fight like this, and when he attacked under Xining City, there would not be much cavalry left.Without cavalry, their own attack power will be greatly reduced, and when the time comes, they can only watch the Ming army's raw melon and egg cavalry, slaughtering their own infantry The Dashun army originally had few cavalry, and in successive battles, the five thousand cavalry had been killed and wounded two thousand, but they did not see the Ming cavalry dispatched once.He Jin didn't dare to use cavalry to break through the formation anymore, so he could only use infantry against infantry.He was also secretly strange in his heart, in the past, he fought with the Ming army, and his cavalry charged like a mountain of mountains, and the Ming army was basically frightened by this momentum and fled wildly.Then his own infantry army surrounded on all sides, and the battlefield soon turned into a one-sided slaughter.Wang Shuo's Ming army was not as good as other Ming armies at the beginning, how could he fight all the way, looking at Wang Shuo's Ming army, which was not strong in combat, why couldn't it be defeated, but became stronger and stronger?
The battle became more and more tragic every time, and the Ming army became more and more fierce every time, fighting to the death and not retreating, and even launched a counterattack when the troops sent by He Jin were insufficient.Attack all the way forward, from Liancheng to Nianbo, I don't know how many times I have experienced life and death struggles, although the Ming army was defeated every time, with heavy casualties, but every time I fought, the Dashun army became more and more difficult, and it was also a lot of casualties.When he arrived at Pingrongyi, He Jin had lost 30,000 infantry troops, and there were less than 2,000 cavalry left.At this time, He Jin really woke up, and he had met a strong enemy.Wang Shuo's Ming army was completely different from other Ming armies, and Xin Sizhong told him that he was not half exaggerated.Although Wang Shuo is young, his resourcefulness is probably only above him, not below him.This battle, from the beginning of Lu Yinchang's fraudulent surrender, was designed by Wang Shuo.Let him not attack the side wall of Beidatong, but follow the route designed by Wang Shuo, and consume his strength along the way.If he continues to fight like this, when he hits the city of Xining, his strength will be almost consumed, and he will not be able to attack the city.He finally understood that he was being led by Wang Shuo all the way.Although he was deceived, after all, he had many years of combat experience and knew that Wang Shuo was just trying to provoke him.At this time, after guessing Wang Shuo's thoughts, he was not angry.He needs to be extra calm, otherwise, he is likely to face defeat He began to hesitate, these horses, especially the cavalry army, can still fight with Wang Shuo Wang Shuo has not shown up so far, how many troops he still has in front waiting for his arrival, he does not know.He considered stationing at Pingrongyi and not attacking Xining for the time being, and sent people to Lanzhou to transfer 5,000 cavalry troops from Dang Shousu to assist in the siege.However, Dang Shousu was one of the eighteen generals of the "Eight Battalions" when King Chuang started, and he was a close confidant of King Chuang.The dignified King Zuojin, led an army of 100,000 troops, and a hairy child who was full of recruits, but he didn't dare to attack, and he wanted to transfer the king's troops to help in the war.Wang Shuo sent an army to block the Dashun army all the way, but it also suffered heavy casualties, and the city of Xining was full of wounded soldiers.Most of his army was a new army, and the Tusi had a grudge against him, so they took the opportunity to agitate, and many soldiers fled.Now, Wang Shuo's infantry army is less than 50,000 people, and the cavalry is difficult to train, and less than 2,000 can actually fight.This information made He Jin pluck up his courage again.He discussed with his subordinates whether to march into Xining, and the generals followed He Jin to win many battles, and he was used to being proud.This time we marched into Xining, there were mountains everywhere, and we couldn't show our troops, so we let people lead the nose all the way, and fought a lot of battles, and I was not angry.Most of the generals were in favor of marching under the city of Xining and fighting Wang Shuo to the death, in order to vent the evil anger in their hearts, Wang Shuo was just a small family from a small family, not well-known, how much ability he could have, why should he be afraid of his hesitation, He Jin still decided to listen to everyone's opinions and march into Xiningwei
