Even if you want to retreat, you can't just run away regardless of your legs, it will only make it easy for the Han army to deal with the troops that have lost their leadership, and Yao Yizhong will really not be able to escape at that time.
Secondly, although the sudden change in the battle situation was extremely unfavorable to the Qiang troops, Yao Yizhong did not think that it had reached the point of no recovery, you must know that although the Qiang troops were repeatedly consumed, there were still 150,000 or 60,000 combat strength left, which was about three times more than the Han army.
Through Yao Yizhong's efforts, the chaos of the Qiang troops was gradually controlled, and although some parts were completely eroded, some parts also began to counterattack, that is, the counterattack of the Qiang troops was very weak.
"It's good that the pontoon bridge on this side of the camp is not lost."
Yao Yizhong was glad that he had chosen the elite to stick to the pontoon bridge: "If the rest of the positions are lost, they will be lost." ” There are more than 30 pontoon bridges built by the Qiang nationality here, and there are four pontoon bridges connecting the north bank of the Yellow River from Yingpan on the south bank, each of which has a width of about four zhang, and the widest pontoon bridges in other locations is only three zhang.
The current situation is that the Han army has turned to attack, and the Qiang army has turned to attack and defensive.
It can be said that the change in the situation can only happen in a very short period of time, that is, the commander can only react if he has a perfect control system for the troops, and what if there is no perfect system, even if the commander reacts.
The Han army's counteroffensive was very strong, and it was the troops who came to help the troops who swept across the periphery to force the Qiang troops to shrink, and then the Han army, which had been pressed and beaten, also began to counterattack.
There were at least 25,000 Han troops rushing out of the camp, and they began to counterattack in all four directions, especially the Han army on the battlefield in the north, which made the Qiang high-level look extremely ugly.
"They have been holding back" Yin Bi's face looked very pale, and he said with trembling lips: "Look at the Han army that has been killed, they have planned to lure us to attack from the beginning. ” Until now, as long as people with brains can't understand that the hard work shown by the Han army before was an illusion, everything was set up, but they were still excited about breaking through the Han army's defense line.
"The military master's side" Zhang Raccoon looked quite calm, and was stunned for a moment when he saw something, and then continued to ask: "What regulations does the military master have?"
Yin Bi followed Zhang Raccoon's line of sight, where a Han army had entered his camp, and the Qiang soldiers had only resisted a little before crumbling.
"The encirclement seems to be untenable."
Zhang Raccoon asked repeatedly: "What are the instructions of the military master?"
The Han army that has appeared seems to be extremely brave, most of the Han army is silent when fighting, only a few places of the Han army will shout slogans, generally is the "Han army mighty" battle cry, from time to time will sound a "Wan Sheng".
Based on past experience, Yin Bi knew that some of his generals were killed, and the Han army would shout "Wansheng", which means that four generals have been killed by the Han army.
The troops brought by Yao Yizhong have a characteristic, that is, they maintain the traditions of the Hu people, such as the soldiers of a tribe are led by the leader or leader of the tribe, but they also have the characteristics of Chinese civilization at all levels.
Among the four generals who were killed, three were tribal leaders or leaders, as soon as they died, the soldiers of their tribe would not hesitate to turn around and run, the Han army naturally thought that they had killed an important person on the other side, and shouting slogans was to boost the morale of their own side, and it was also a kind of excitement.
Where did Yin Bi know what Yao Yizhong's plans were, just now Yao Yizhong left without saying a word, not only did Hu Yansheng not deal with it, but Yin Bi and Zhang Raccoon didn't get any instructions.
Because it was a sudden change in the battle situation, and the time was still relatively short, many of the battle situations did not have time to inform each other, and the high-level leaders on the side of the Qiang troops knew that the battle situation had become unfavorable to their own side, but they did not have much concept of how to disadvantage.
Most of the Qiang tribal leaders and the like don't have the slightest concept of strategy, that is, a relationship that lacks cultural heritage, and only those who systematically learn the art of war in the Chinese civilization know what strategy is.
Strategy can be called the overall situation, Yin Bi constantly observed the battlefield around, and the overall situation was that although the battle situation was unfavorable to his own side, it was reflected in the hearts of the people.
Yao Yizhong was constantly mobilizing troops, and those troops who could not afford to fight did not take care of it, and the soldiers who were all Qiang were transferred.
It's not that the Qiang soldiers are anything, the main thing is that they are all Qiang people, even if they are flustered in their hearts, they are much more reliable than the Zahu or Jin people, and as long as Yao Yizhong does not fall, the Qiang soldiers will try their best to obey the order to fight.
When Yao Yizhong tried his best to save the situation, Yao Xiang, who was supposed to retreat to the north bank of the Yellow River with the old and weak women and children, came over.
Yao Yizhong was angry when he saw Yao Xiang, but when he saw Yao Xiang's eyes full of determination, he sighed and turned into relief.
It is often said that the tiger father has no dog, as a father to see an excellent son is actually a difficult to describe pleasure, even if sometimes the son is disobedient, but as long as he shows the excellent side, the father feels more joyful, even if the son's choice is full of danger.
Yao Yizhong has many sons, even if it has not reached twenty-four yet, it is close to twenty.
Yao Xiang is one of the relatively best of his many heirs, and now Yao Xiang's choice just shows the excellent side, that is, daring to face danger is not to retreat.
Soon, the leaders and generals of the various tribes came to the big tent after taking the lead, and they all came to ask Yao Yizhong what decision he had.
"It's especially unwise to retreat now."
Yao Yizhong set a tone: "The old and weak, women and children can be withdrawn, and the combat troops must stay." ” While everyone looked at each other, most of them agreed with Yao Yizhong's point of view.
The army cannot retreat without order, it is not a retreat but a rout.
They had to ask in more detail, such as whether there was a plan to retreat.
"The fleet of the Han army has already appeared on the river, and the scale is still extremely large."
Yao Yizhong didn't want to hide too much, so it was better for him to take the initiative to tell the truth so that these generals or leaders could learn the truth from other channels.
He gave a brief introduction, and finally said: "Our naval army has met the attack, and there is no battle report for the time being." ” No one can say what the combat effectiveness of Shijie Zhao's naval army is, and one thing is extremely certain, that is, Shijie Zhao's naval army in the Duma River has been trained for a long time, but that naval army has no actual combat experience.
"Liu Yan paid attention to the naval army from the beginning, first looking for islands in the sea, and during this period, he also sent troops to the Korean Peninsula."
Yin Bi said solemnly: "We have reason to believe that the Han Navy has enough combat experience, so I'm afraid we can't have much hope for our own Navy Army." ” The sound of swallowing saliva sounded frequently, and everyone's face became even more ugly than before.
"Water warfare is more complicated than land warfare, and it can be won or lost in a short period of time, or it can be fought for a year and a half and still in a stalemate."
Yin Bi saluted Yao Yizhong, and then continued: "Liu Yan has set up this situation to defeat us, and the first goal of the Han Navy is to destroy our pontoon bridge, and I am afraid that it will not be entangled too much with our Navy Army."
So let's assume a problem, the Han Navy is estimated to destroy the pontoon bridge at any cost.
At the speed of the march of the waterway, the Han navy may have arrived in the evening. ” After Yin Bi finished speaking, the people present not only had ugly faces, but also were in an uproar.
That means that the time left for them to retreat is only less than an afternoon, and the four pontoon bridges are now all old and weak women and children retreating, and the number of people who can be evacuated in more than two hours will not exceed 60,000, while the number of old and weak women and children is more than 100,000, and the number of combat troops is even higher.
From the very beginning, Yao Yizhong realized the seriousness of the problem, and that is why he chose to stay.

If the troops led by Yao Yizhong are not mostly Qiang people, he will leave some important people to leave the troops and evacuate, but if he leaves the Qiang soldiers, I am afraid that the end of escaping back will not be much better, and being ridiculed is secondary, if he really dares to do that, not only will the big leader of the Qiang tribe not have to do it, but not only Shi Hu will kill him, but even the Qiang tribes will not let him go.
"Alright."
Yao Yizhong motioned for Yin Bi to step aside, and personally stood up and said, "The bad situation is those, and we also have an advantage. ” If you continue to be scared, it will backfire, Yao Yizhong wants to let everyone know the seriousness of the matter, not to hit everyone so that they don't even dare to resist.
"Our strength is still more than three times that of the Han army, and the number of cavalry is even larger."
Yao Yizhong ordered people to spread out the map of mountains and rivers, and said in a very steady tone: "The terrain around the battlefield is long and narrow, and both sides are surrounded by waterways.
Unless we abandon our troops and flee now, it is purely delusional to withdraw to the north bank of the Great River.
Let's take a look at the direction of Zhu'ajun.
The terrain from here to Zhu'a County is flat, which is very suitable for cavalry battles or hurrying, so our situation is not in despair because the river has been cut off. ” Not everyone can understand the map of mountains and rivers, and even if they do, they don't understand what it means, and bursts of whispers sound.
It was a confused person asking others, and a smart person told him that the solemn atmosphere in the tent slowly dissipated.
"That is, we still have close to 80,000 cavalry."
"Prima facie, the Han army is only 50,000 or 60,000, their cavalry is about 30,000, but our cavalry is 80,000."
"yes, it doesn't look that bad."
First whispered, and then seemed to be emboldened by each other, Yao Yizhong just listened quietly, and a smile slowly appeared on his face.
There is a way out and there is a dead end, and the two different situations determine the courage of the commander.
The most important thing for the army is morale, and if the morale is low, even if there are many people, the crowd will be like a lamb to the slaughter, and if the morale is high, it can fiercely defeat the crowd.
Yao Yizhong first stabilized the mood of the high-level and gave life hope, and then it was time to boost their morale.
"Liu Yan arranges the chessboard, and he is also on the chessboard."
Yao Yizhong said in an extremely excited tone: "He didn't launch it before, and the Han army is ready to go.
Now that he has launched, how many hole cards of the Han army have been revealed.
If he dares to use himself as bait, why don't I dare to use myself as bait?"
Although the degree of sinicization of the Qiang nationality is very high and wide, it will take a long time to continue to sinicize to see more effects.
So much so that Yao Yizhong said it very clearly, but the number of people who could understand it was limited.
Yao Yizhong didn't expect to understand everything, he was just showing his attitude, and he was also announcing that it was too early to talk about victory.
It is impossible for the meeting to last too long, after all, there is a complete slaughter outside, Yao Yizhong needs to show up to stabilize the morale of the army, and the high-level leaders of all classes must also go down to stabilize the morale of the army.
Generally speaking, fortunately, the camp of the Qiang people is large enough, and the Han cavalry who came by surprise broke through many camps, but the Han cavalry only destroyed the peripheral camps, which were far from the core camps.
In fact, it is also like that, a camp with a range of tens of miles, how big its core area should be, and how many garrisons should there be on the periphery, how can it be said that it will rush into it.
The Han army did not succeed in seizing the camp connecting the pontoon bridge, but after paying nearly 1,000 cavalry dead and wounded, Qian Jiantong, who commanded the troops, found that the enemy troops stationed there had not wavered, and observed the situation and decisively ordered to abandon the attack there and go to another place.
He will do this, mainly in relation to the order he receives, the order is only to try, not to give a death order to seize, because the fleet will come and accomplish the purpose.
The war was fought in the afternoon, and the Han army that crossed Jishui from Licheng also defeated the Qiang army, and when they arrived at the battlefield, the Tiger Ben army, which had been marching slowly behind, also arrived at the main battlefield in Luoyin.
Two reinforcements arrived, and Liu Yan's available troops finally seemed to be richer.
"The number of cavalry arriving all the way is twenty-one thousand, and the number of infantry troops is eight thousand."
Ji Chang looked down at Wen Mu and added: "For the time being, the casualty data has not been counted, and roughly calculated that the total number of dead and missing soldiers of the two reinforcements should be about 5,000, and the rest are wounded." ” A total of more than 20,000 soldiers on both roads were unable to arrive, which was the loss of the cavalry that had arrived earlier and attacked the Qiang camp.
There was also a patchwork of reinforcements rushing towards Luoyin, which was an auxiliary army assembled from all over the country, numbering about 30,000, and they had now marched to Licheng.
"Your Majesty" Ji Chang swallowed his saliva and asked in a low voice: "How many troops do we have on hand now?"
Liu Yan was stunned when asked, Ji Chang is the chief of the march, and the army should be done by the long history "This" Ji Chang was entangled and embarrassed again: "The main reason is that the number of Praetorian Guards has been increasing. ” Liu Yan laughed "ha", to say that there were only more than 10,000 Praetorian Guards at the beginning, but the number of them increased again and again, so that he couldn't be sure how many.
"It should be" Liu Yan thought about it very seriously, and said uncertainly: "There should be close to twenty-five thousand Praetorian Guards" Dividing line That's all for today.
In addition, I wish you all a happy new year and all the best in advance:
