One thing was unfortunately said by Yao Yizhong, that is, Liu Yan can really conjure up soldiers, but he doesn't sprinkle beans.
Liu Yan is not afraid of a war of attrition at all, especially the current stalemate war of attrition, and he even has a sense of pleasure that his wish has been fulfilled.
You must know that before the start of the First Battle of Buqicheng, Liu Yan conceived a tactic to build fortifications of sufficient strength to let the enemy army attack around him, and then he continued to fight and consume in the stalemate.
This kind of tactic makes him feel emotional when he thinks about it a little, and even has a feeling of being poked and laughed, so that he is happy to think about it.
A group of people were worried about Liu Yanzai's safety, but when they saw that Liu Yan could still smile calmly, they didn't know whether to admire or be depressed for a while.
It is naturally an excellent thing to have a monarch who is not surprised at every turn, and it indicates that the monarch has a strong enough will.
This is a thing that makes his subordinates extremely happy, no matter how you look at it, such a monarch will have a bright future, but because of a little setback, it will sink.
The strong will of the monarch can only be encouraged, not consumed, and no one mentions anything about breaking through, but concentrates on thinking about how to make the battle situation better.
The Han army on the battlefield on the north side had already routed the attacking Qiang troops to a hundred and fifty paces away, and the fierce battle left the corpses on the ground, and more wounded soldiers who had not died for a while were moaning and wailing.
Originally, the attack had no effect but was repulsed, so that it should be a temporary retreat, so as to regroup and fight again, but Yao Yizhong was really crazy, not only strictly ordered the defeated troops not to retreat, but also increased the troops.
Yao Yizhong didn't even let the elite troops of the Qiang people withdraw from the battlefield to recuperate, and he didn't care about the miscellaneous soldiers.
What he wants is a fierce attack, and he wants to completely find out how many troops are still hidden in Liu Yan's hands.
Knowing how many Han troops were besieged was extremely important to the Qiang troops, so that not only did the northern side continue to attack, but the two sides were in a see-saw back and forth within a radius of fifty paces, and every moment there were soldiers injured and fell to the ground.
On the other three sides, the Qiang troops on the east side were unable to exert their strength, and the south and west sides evolved from feints to real attacks.
"If 10,000 is not enough, 20,000" Yao Yizhong was like an angry tiger, and roared fiercely: "There must be no gap" The Qiang troops put into the battlefield have always been seventy or eighty thousand, if the battlefield has enough space or even more, the problem is that the Han cavalry on the east side is really fierce, how many Qiang troops have to meet the Han army assault cavalry regardless of casualties, resulting in the number of casualties on both sides there exceeding the number of casualties on the north side.
Yin Bi's cheeks twitched, and the sense of responsibility for being promoted to Changshi made him have to say: "Military master, we have lost more than 10,000 on the east side" "As long as the enemy's troops can be consumed, especially the precious cavalry, the casualties are nothing" Yao Yizhong didn't know what Liu Yan thought, what he cared about was: "The Han army threw in three thousand precious cavalry, I don't believe that Liu Yan's people can't exhaust it" To tell the truth, don't say it's 10,000 miscellaneous soldiers to exchange for 3,000 elite cavalry of the Han army, that is, to exchange 10,000 elites, Yao Yizhong also thinks it's worth it.
"Liu Yan is killing himself."
Yao Yizhong smiled fiercely and said: "They are surrounded, and the cavalry is the main force to break through."
Liu Yan used the precious main force to break through, and he thought he was forced to be in a hurry. ” If it were normal, Yao Yizhong would definitely not be wrong to say that, but he happened to meet a person in an extremely special situation.
Thinking according to the generals of the Qiang tribe, Liu Yan took out the elite assault cavalry to do this, no matter what, there is only one explanation.
That is, Liu Yan was really forced to be in a hurry, and he wanted to make a gap at any cost.
What the enemy wants is what it must prevent, and using all means to prevent whatever the enemy wants to achieve is a guarantee of victory in the war.
The fighting began early in the morning and continued into the night.
The clouds in the sky on this side of the main battlefield are reflected by the firelight on the ground, and as long as the line of sight is not blocked by the mountains, it can be seen clearly from dozens of miles away.
In the two battlefields on the periphery, the two Han armies as reinforcements seemed to be in a hurry, and they also attacked overnight unusually.
The news was conveyed to Yao Yizhong on the main battlefield, which made the Qiang generals even more convinced that Liu Yan was already at the end of the crossbow, and they could attack the Han army camp and win as long as they worked harder.
"Something strange."
Jiang Ying was a general of the Eastern Jin Dynasty who descended to Shijie Zhao, and is currently a miscellaneous Sima.
He said in confusion: "How can the Han army that appeared on the battlefield have so many pikemen" Yao Yizhong had already discovered this situation, the Han army was mainly based on tower shield soldiers, sword and shield soldiers, strong crossbow soldiers, and crossbow soldiers, and after night, the strong crossbow soldiers were of course still firing continuously, but the number of pikemen who appeared on the battlefield was a bit large.
"The pikemen of the Han army still look elite, but they don't even have leather armor."
Jiang Ying touched his chin and said, "Such an elite soldier is not equipped with armor, but it is not like Liu Yan's handwriting. ” Yao Yizhong's body shook suddenly, and he subconsciously said: "Crossbowmen don't need armor, long-term training has made them elite enough." ” The strength of the Han army in melee hand-to-hand combat was not enough, so the crossbowmen were given melee weapons to participate in the battle This discovery made the Qiang generals breathe heavily, and if that were the case, Liu Yan's forces at hand should have been exhausted, and the dawn of their victory had appeared.
"The number of Han cavalry that appeared on the battlefield also declined rapidly."
Yao Yizhong still maintained enough calm, but the pleasure in his tone was obviously extremely happy: "A war of attrition is useful. ” Throughout the day, the loss of the Qiang army is estimated to be 30,000 people, and even the elite Qiang iron armor has lost nearly 2,000 people, in exchange for the result of the Han army, the loss of seven or eight thousand, especially the elite cavalry of the Han army, which has lost about 3,000.
This conversion did not frighten all the high-level Qiang people, including Yao Yizhong, but they were extremely pleased.
In the past few days, the Qiang side suffered heavy losses, but did not inflict much damage on the Han army.
This kind of battle situation makes the Qiang side an extremely angry and helpless situation, who makes the strong crossbow of the Han army really too perverted "No matter how many troops Liu Yan has, depending on the size of the camp" Yin Bi gestured and said with a smile: "It can't be fifty or sixty thousand."
The number of troops is the size of the camp, not too small and not too big.
Too small will appear crowded, too big will have meaningless emptiness, all of which are self-defeating.
"Seven or eight thousand in a day, how many troops does Liu Yan have to fight with us" Yin Bi suddenly became very serious, and said to Yao Yizhong: "Military master, the most important thing now is to make sure that the Han army on the periphery can't get close to here. ” Of course, Yao Yizhong knows this, the war is not only about numbers, but also about the morale of the army.
The morale of the troops under his command is declining every moment because of the heavy casualties, and it is simply the top that forces the middle level, and the officers and leaders at the middle and bottom are persecuting the soldiers.
Such a state cannot last, it can be supported for a short period of three or five days, and it will definitely collapse on its own for a long time.
After some speculation, it can be said that the high-level leaders of the Qiang people here have a sense of expectation, so that after they return to the building, they will convey a remark downward, that is, if the Han army fails, everyone will win if they work harder.
"As long as we can win, capture or kill Liu Yan alive, everyone will be rewarded.
As soon as Liu Yan dies, the Han Department will collapse on its own, and everyone who enters Qingzhou will gain a lot."
The morale-boosting rhetoric began to spread throughout the Qiang army, and it can be said that it was somewhat fruitful, but it was of very limited use to the soldiers who were strictly ordered not to retreat in front.

"How long will it take to win" "We don't think we'll live to the moment of victory."
"Alas" The morale of the soldiers participating in the battle on the front line is difficult to improve because the rain of arrows of the Han army has not stopped, and no one has guessed how many arrows the Han army has in reserve.
The battles at night are certainly not as fierce as during the day, and most of them are some infiltration battles, so that at a certain moment, a shout suddenly erupts at a key position and produces a fierce fight, which is not at all surprising.
However, the vast majority of the positions are cats on both sides, crankily expecting or not wanting the day.
The next day, as soon as the sky dawned, the Qiang soldiers in the rear, who were feasted on what might be the last meal, roared and poured into the battlefield, as if believing that victory was imminent, ignoring the gaze of their comrades who had participated in the battle earlier towards the dead, and flocked to the Han army in the face of the rain of arrows.
"The enemy must have thought we were at the end of the crossbow," Sang Yu said, looking strangely down the lookout, where a large number of new troops stood that had suddenly appeared overnight.
He looked at Ji Chang and lowered his voice: "The king is a god."
The shock in Ji Chang's heart was not lost to Sang Yu at all, but he had long held the mentality that no matter what strange things happened, he squinted at Sang Yu, and said lightly: "What's the difference." ” Sang Yu was dumbfounded.
There are many things that Liu Yan can't explain, including the fact that the grain that should have bottomed out early has been replenished repeatedly, and new elite troops will appear from time to time.
He never said anything more to his subordinates, and kept enough of it secretive.
"Our fleet has broken through into the Yellow River."
Ji Chang's eyes were also looking at the troops below, the number of great swordsmen and pikemen was very large, he retracted his gaze and looked at Liu Yan, and said respectfully: "Yao Yizhong will get the news soon." ” Shijie Zhao also had a naval army in the Yellow River, claiming to have 150,000 people, and more than 1,000 boats.
If the Han fleet had been informed by Yao Yizhong before defeating this Shijie naval army, then Yao Yizhong would definitely not want to continue to stay at the risk of being cut off.
Liu Yan bowed his head and said: "Then let Yao Yizhong know that there is a risk of being cut off and still want to stay." ” Dividing line Dear friends, let's get some recommended votes:
