Chapter 188: The First Battle


"General Ma, how many archers are there in our army" Mo asked for a moment of perceptual perception and opened his eyes to look at Ma Pingchuan.

"There should be three thousand."

Ma Pingchuan replied.

"The county government has its own two thousand."

Shi Zhen, who was sitting on the side, said.

"The archers of the county government and the archers in the army are all under the command of General Pu."

Mo Wen looked around at Shi Zhen and Ma Pingchuan, and only after the two of them nodded, did he look at Pu Xiong, "The five thousand cavalry and five thousand archers are under your control, and you go out to set up your own defense." ” "The last will be ordered."

Pu Xiong bowed in agreement and turned to go out.

"Whether the 50,000 soldiers withdraw into the city or not is up to you."

Don't ask to look at Ma Pingchuan again, as the saying goes, he is not good at arranging troops, rather than doing everything himself, it is better to delegate power to his subordinates.

"The soldiers from outside the city should withdraw into the city."

Ma Pingchuan said.

Mo Wen nodded when he heard this, and then raised his hand at him, and Ma Pingchuan had to order him to retreat.

"Stand down, too."

Mo Wen looked around at everyone, and the generals agreed, turned and retreated.

After everyone left, Mo Wen closed his eyes again, the war is imminent, tension is always inevitable, after all, this is his first time to lead the army, any negligence may cause heavy losses on his side, at this time he found that he was not ready to lead the army as the commander, and he was a little flustered in his heart, this panic mainly stemmed from the lack of understanding of the opponent, but also from the apprehension of commanding the battle for the first time.

"I have no intention of transferring Ma Pingchuan's 50,000 soldiers in a short period of time, so I will hand it over to you to raise troops for training and reserve for me."

Mo asked, Chong Shizhen said.

Now he is still unable to command so many troops, and he cannot do it like a finger, and it is a sign of inconsiderate thinking to pull out the camp twice in three days.

"Okay."

Shi Zhen nodded in agreement.

"Go ahead, I'll be alone and quiet."

Mo asked, Chong Shizhen said.

Shi Zhen hesitated for a moment, then turned around and went out with full doubts, ordinary generals would be busy investigating the enemy's situation and formulating strategies before the battle came, but Mo Wen actually handed over the errand to his subordinates and left it alone.

After Shi Zhen left, Mo Wen gradually calmed down, what he needed most at this time was calm, at this time he finally understood why Zhao Kuo, who was talking on paper, would be useless on the battlefield, the reason was that coming to the battlefield would cause huge psychological pressure on the coach, and excessive psychological pressure would make him uncertain and lose his mind.

After calming down, Mo Wen began to reflect on why he was so flustered in his heart, before this, he had also experienced a war outside Jiankang City, and there were more than 10,000 people on the other side, he had not panicked at that time, why was he so nervous and flustered at this time.

After groaning, he vaguely found the root cause, when he was in Jiankang, he was not nervous and afraid because he only had to be responsible for himself, and he would not implicate others, and the situation was different at this time, he had to be responsible for the people of the entire city, these tens of thousands of soldiers, and even the entire Zhao State, if he acted badly, it would affect countless people.

In other words, the tension did not come from the cavalry of the Yan Kingdom and those demon beasts and ghost soldiers, but from the heavy burden on their shoulders.

He had never been responsible for so many people before, and he was overwhelmed and at a loss for what to do when he suddenly took on this burden, and his previous habits of worry were forced to change, and the sudden change made his mood fluctuate and he was nervous and panicked.

The most urgent thing is to adjust your mentality, let go of the burden in your heart, and find your previous habits of thinking and acting style.

After frowning and closing his eyes for a long time, Mo Wen suddenly opened his eyes, and his heart suddenly opened up, he finally understood what the problem was, he thought about the problem at this time, and considered it from the position of the coach, ignoring that he was just a Taoist.

Thinking of this, Mo Wen stepped out of the door, called Shi Zhen out of the county government together, and came to the city tower on the east side, at this time, the forward army of the Yan Kingdom had already arrived fifty miles away.

Because most of the Yan country is cavalry, so it is the cavalry to take the lead, the dust under the galloping of the war horses, black smoke billowing, stretching for more than ten miles from north to south, as if the black clouds are pressing.

By this time, the 5,000 cavalry under the command of Pu Xiong had retreated to the city, and most of the infantry had also entered the city, and rows of archers stood above and below the city walls, waiting for the enemy to fire their bows and arrows.

Pu Xiong and Ma Pingchuan arrived one after another, standing on Mo Wen's side and watching the enemy's situation, but the two of them and Shi Zhen couldn't see fifty miles, so they could only see the black smoke raised by the black soil, and couldn't see the specific situation.

The three of them did not speak, Mo Wen did not speak, until this time he did not notice that there were profound aliens on the side of the Yan Kingdom, although there were many beasts behind the cavalry, there were no strange species, they were all tigers and wolves, and there was no one who could transform into a human form, they could only be regarded as beast soldiers, not demon beasts.

"Although the momentum is not small, there are not many people, and there will not be more than 10,000."

Pu Hung said.

"This is the middle road, and the Yan army from the north and south roads will follow."

Ma Pingchuan said.

Mo Wen didn't answer, the aliens brought by the Yan army have no way, so they must not act independently, there must be people who control them, as long as they find the demon who controls the beast and kill it, they can make this group of beasts lose their restraint.

After a stick of incense, the army of Yan arrived at the river and stopped, and the smoke and dust quickly dissipated, it can be seen that the Yan army stretched for more than ten miles from north to south, followed by two groups of beasts, a group of white-fronted tigers, the number was small, only hundreds.

The other group is a group of vicious wolves, which are more numerous, and the visual estimate should be more than 2,000.

These two groups of tigers and wolves are one south and one north, separated by more than ten miles, and they are distinct, and there is no intersection with each other, and there are two horseback soldiers behind the beast herd, and these two people wear the same clothes as ordinary cavalry, which is undoubtedly to prevent the strange clothing from causing the disaster of killing, which can also be seen that the two do not have much to do.

Due to the large number of enemy troops, although Mo Wen could see the situation of the other party clearly, he could not determine whether the Baili Wind was in the crowd.

"General Ma, you have fought with the Yan army before, and the enemy's punishment this time is limited to tigers and wolves," Mo Wenchong asked, Ma Pingchuan, who was standing beside him.

"The tiger and the hungry wolf move quickly, but they can move forward with the army, and there must be a giant beast behind."

Ma Pingchuan replied that he was not sure.

Mo Wen nodded when he heard this, and didn't ask again, Ma Pingchuan was stationed in Baijun before, and the Yan army in Baijun was mainly based on monsters in the water, so he must not know too much about the situation of the Yan army in Yongjun.

"The enemy army will be tired after a long run, and if our army meets it, it should have a seven-point chance of victory."

Pu Hung said.

"Eliminate the evil, and wait for the arrival of the Yan army to make a plan."

Mo Wen shook his head and said.

After the Yan army stopped, a person came out of the crowd to test the river water, and after making sure that although the river water was filthy, it was not poisonous, the Yan cavalry began to drink horses.

Mo Wen frowned slightly when he saw this, the person who tested for drugs before was also worn by a soldier, and it was extremely difficult to distinguish between them when he mixed into the crowd.

It can be seen that the commander of the Yan army is extremely thoughtful.

"General Ma, there is no difference in the clothes worn by the Yan generals, officers and captains," Mo Wen asked Ma Pingchuan again.

"The Yan people live in the deep forests of the northeast, and the etiquette is very incomplete, although they have official positions, their clothing is no different from ordinary soldiers, and it is difficult to find their generals in battle."

Ma Pingchuan replied with a wry smile.

"There is always someone who gives orders."

Mo asked.

"The Yan army shouted incessantly in battle, and shouted words that we couldn't understand, and the people who killed the loudest were often not generals."

Ma Pingchuan smiled bitterly again.

Mo Wen didn't ask again, after the Yan cavalry drank the horses, an area was vacated for the two groups of beasts to drink, and the horses that those cavalry rode might have been with the beasts for a long time, and they were not afraid of the beasts.

After drinking their horses, the cavalry of the Yan army sat on the ground to rest, took out the dry food they carried with them, chewed and ate.

"Why did the Yan army carry dry food when it marched and fought," Mo Wen looked at Ma Pingchuan suspiciously.

"They don't have heavy fires like our army, and they carry dry rations with them when they march.

They also had no tents, and lay in the open air at night.

Ma Pingchuan explained.

"Isn't it cold to lie in the open air," Mo asked.

"Real people don't know that the Yan country is cold all year round, so many Yan people are not afraid of cold."

Ma Pingchuan's expression became more and more solemn, he didn't expect Mo Wen to know nothing about the enemy's situation.

Mo Wen frowned when he heard this, the soldiers of the Yan Kingdom were already fast and fast, and they were more flexible without the drag of their baggage, and they could ride their horses away at any time.

"Real person, do you want to send troops to meet at this time" Pu Xiong observed his words and guessed what Mo Wen was thinking.

"No hurry, wait."

Mo Wen shook his head and said, although the cavalry of the Yan Kingdom may leave at any time, he feels that the other party will not leave just now, since they have arrived here, it is natural to capture Heijun in one fell swoop.

After eating the dry food, the Yan cavalry lay down to rest, and the cover was nothing more than an animal skin blanket bound in the saddle.

"It's so arrogant."

Pu Xiong said angrily, the enemy dared to sleep soundly in front of the battle, which was undoubtedly a great contempt for Zhao Jun.

"Thirty miles apart, they have plenty of time to get up and fight."

Ma Pingchuan said.

Although the Yan army did not move, the four did not leave the city tower, when the sun was in the west, Mo Wen finally put his mind at ease, although the soldiers and horses of the Yan army on the north road had not yet arrived, but he noticed that there was a giant python breath in the lower reaches of the river, which indicated that the soldiers and horses of the enemy army on the south road were moving here.

The south road is coming, and the north road will not be lacking.

"Let's go down and prepare."

Mo Wen turned his head to look at Pu Xiong.

Puxiong naturally knew what Mo was referring to, so he excitedly agreed and walked down the city wall quickly.

Not long after Pu Xiong left, there were Yan cavalry in the east again, there were no demon beasts behind this group of cavalry, and the strange beasts in their headquarters were all coming from the downstream waterway, at this time, there were more than ten giant pythons that could be perceived by him, these giant pythons may not be enough to transform into a human form, but their physical situation must be extremely huge.

Until this moment, what Mo Wen perceived and saw were ordinary beasts, snakes and insects, and there were no too terrifying ones, it was not that Yan Country only had these, but that these were just with the army, and the real Taoism had not yet arrived.

The sky was getting dark, and the soldiers and horses on the North Road of Yan Country had not yet arrived, and Mo Wen was not too anxious, because the Zhao army of Huangjun led by Xujike was more tragic to block the Yan army, and it was reasonable for the Yan army on the North Road to arrive late.

At the first watch, Puxiong came to report, everything was ready, and the cavalry was on standby.

At this time, the sky was not yet completely dark, and the soldiers and horses of the Yan army on the north road had not arrived, Mo Wen was not in a hurry to start, the purpose of today's battle was to kill the enemy cavalry, and it must be annihilated in one fell swoop.

At the time of the second watch, the sky was completely dark, and the last Yan army arrived, and settled down in the dark, and the entire Yan army camp was completely dark.

"Seeing a flame flashing in the sky at a height of five feet, he went to rush and kill."

Mo asked Chong Puxiong to say.

"Order."

Pu Xiong promised.

"Real person, Yan Jun's move is against common sense, beware of deception."

Ma Pingchuan is worried.

"I'm only afraid that he won't come, and I'm not afraid that he will cheat."

Mo Wen snorted coldly and then stepped on the ground and borrowed his strength, leaving the city wall and sweeping eastward:
