Outflanking is a double-edged sword, and under normal circumstances, such a strategy will only be used by generals when their own side has an advantage, after all, it takes a lot of troops to detour to the enemy's flank and rear flank, and dispersing troops is originally a taboo for soldiers, let alone when they are at a disadvantage in a head-to-head duel.

In fact, Tang Bin was also making a gamble, the Wei army was already in an obvious disadvantageous state in the head-to-head confrontation, and at this time, the division of troops to attack the flank of the Shu army undoubtedly made the Wei army's frontal defense more and more thin, and it was even more powerless to resist the strong and powerful offensive of the Shu army.

But if Tang Bin didn't do this, he would definitely be defeated, the offensive of the Shu cavalry was quite fierce, and if they were attacked all the way, the Wei army was destined to suffer heavy losses. Therefore, Tang Bin had to take a risk, hoping to win by surprise and return the cavalry to the back of the Shu army, so that he might be able to contain the offensive of the Shu cavalry and turn defeat into victory.

After the order was issued, the cavalry on the rear flank of the Wei army began to move outward to the side, away from the main battlefield, and one cavalry on the left and right flanks broke away from the large army, drawing two long arcs, and rushed towards the flank and rear flank of the Wei army.

Before the battle began, Liu Yin had foreseen that the Wei army might adopt the tactics of breaking through the two flanks in the middle, so when the formation was in formation, the left and right flanks discharged two spear phalanxes of the Yong'an Battalion and the Qiang Barracks, just to provide flank protection for the cavalry.

After the cavalry attacked, the infantry on both sides also rushed forward at the same time, but the cavalry was fast and quickly rushed to the front, and the infantry naturally fell a large part. If Tang Bin chooses to start a roundabout attack at this time, the infantry protection on both sides is not in place, and the strategy adopted by Tang Bin still has a great possibility of success.

But at the time of the first battle, Tang Bin was very supportive, thinking that only a frontal attack would be enough to destroy the defense line of the Shu army, so why do you need to do more?

But the reality surprised Tang Bin. After the frontal attack was blocked, he had to adopt a roundabout tactic and dedicate nearly half of his troops to attack the rear of the Shu army, hoping to save the defeat.

But the fighters are often fleeting, when Tang Bin made up his mind to outflank them in a roundabout way. The two infantry pike phalanxes of the Shu army had already caught up to escort the main cavalry.

When the Wei cavalry surrounded them from both flanks, they found that they were facing a phalanx of spears that were even more difficult to swallow than hedgehogs.

The most effective battle formation to deal with the cavalry attack is the spear formation, and the most effective way for the cavalry to crack the spear formation is to use the cavalry archers for long-range strikes. Unfortunately, the Wei army did not have a formed cavalry archery like the Shu army. If you want to break through the spear formation, it is naturally a very difficult thing.

The spear array of the Shu army was tightly guarded on the flank of the cavalry camp, and if the Wei army wanted to realize Tang Bin's tactical concept, it must first break through the infantry position. Although the leading generals of the Wei army understood that it was very slim to accomplish this goal, they now had no choice, the situation in the middle was very bad, and Tang Bin had pinned his hopes entirely on the roundabout outflanking of the two flanks. They had no choice but to bite the bullet and rush towards the spear array of the Shu army.

The Wei cavalry, fearless of death, launched an attack on the spear array. But this attack method is quite tragic, when the Wei cavalry attacked forward, it was completely their own collision with the head of the Shu army's spear, and every war horse would almost be stabbed by seven or eight spears, even the riders on horseback. It is also not immune.

The cavalry that followed continued to rush up, relying on the road that the corpse of the robe in front of them had paved out of them, tearing apart the defense line of the Shu army's spear array little by little.

However, the Shu people's defensive will was even more reluctant, and when there were vacancies and loopholes in many places in the spear formation, the soldiers behind would not hesitate to fill them. The formation is always intact. But in the same way, in the face of the repeated onslaught of the Wei cavalry, the two spear phalanxes still paid a great price.

The fighting and scuffle began to spread from the middle to the left and right wings, and the battlefield of the entire Dishui Cliff became even more chaotic, and the sound of killing shook the sky and resounded in the sky.

The division of the Wei army gave the Shu cavalry the greatest opportunity, and the pressure in front of them became less, so the Shu army became more unscrupulous, and the attacks became sharper.

The two flanks could not break through, the plan of a roundabout attack was blocked, and the pressure on the front can be imagined, and the Shu army almost attacked the last line of defense of the Wei army with a momentum like a bamboo.

The fate of the defeat of the Wei cavalry was already irretrievable.

"General Tang, withdraw quickly, if you don't withdraw, it'll be too late!" The Chinese army around him hurriedly persuaded Tang Bin.

Tang Bin's face was as gray as ashes, his heart was as cold as ice, this battle was defeated, a defeat, such a result was undoubtedly the last thing he wanted to see, and similarly, it was also what Sima Wang, the commander of the three armies, did not want to see, but they were still defeated.

Under the new horse harness of the Shu army, this battle became without any suspense, and the Shu army won a hearty victory, telling the world that the cavalry of the Shu army was the first elite soldier in the world on duty.

All Tang Bin's dreams and hopes were shattered, so he had to order the remnants of the Wei army to start retreating, preparing to escape back to Jieting, and then discuss countermeasures with Sima Wang.

Just when Tang Bin turned around as soon as he turned his horse, he only felt a chill in his heart, and when he lowered his head, he found that an iron arrow had already passed through his chest. What made him more uncomfortable than the pain was that the arrow was cold to the heart, even far better than the 39 cold ice.

Tang Bin's body shook on the horse's back, and finally fell to the ground with despair and unwillingness.

All those who fell to the ground, whether high or low, enjoyed the same treatment - trampled to pulp by their hooves. In the melee, no one seemed to really care about whether it was the general or the ordinary soldier who fell off the horse, and when Tang Bin fell off the horse, the Chinese officers around him still tried their best to save him, but they rode wildly, Tang Bin's body was soon trampled like mud, and the Chinese officers had to give up the plan to collect Tang Bin's body, and followed the torrent of defeated soldiers to the east.

It was Fu Zhi who shot this arrow, he sneered, put away his bow and arrows, and ordered the Shu army to launch a full-scale attack.

Because of Tang Bin's death, the Wei army was leaderless, and soon collapsed, and the soldiers who saw the bad situation stopped moving forward, and most of the people began to flee the battlefield, and the Wei army was defeated like a mountain, and no one was able to turn the tide anymore.
