Chapter 386: The Stars Are Scattered
Standing on the high ground of Dishui Cliff, you can have a clear bird's-eye view of the entire battlefield.
The battle is nearing the end, even if Tang Bin, the vanguard officer of the Wei army, did not die, the defeat of the Wei army was already doomed, but Tang Bin's death accelerated this defeat, and the entire Wei army scattered and fled in embarrassment.
After losing their cohesion and will to resist, the once powerful and powerful Cao Wei cavalry became a plate of scattered sand, and could no longer organize any effective offensive and defensive means, so they turned around and fled one by one, galloping wildly, eager to leave this battlefield smeared with blood and fire.
However, the Wei army has no advantage in speed compared with the cavalry of the Shu army equipped with a high bridge saddle and bilateral stirrups, and the two sides are riding the same Xiliang war horse, which naturally has no advantages or disadvantages, but the Shu army equipped with new harnesses has greatly improved the handling and control ability of the war horse, and the speed is naturally one or two percent faster than the Wei army.
It was this speed that played a decisive role in the final chase.
The rout of the Wei army did not make the Shu army stop the pursuit of the horses' hooves, and the theory of poor Kou Mo chasing did not have the slightest meaning to them, and the cavalry led by Fu Zhu and Deng Pu, in order to pursue the maximum results of the battle, pursued the fleeing Wei soldiers fiercely, and pursued them all the way to the end.
The cavalry archers shone in the initial stages of the battle, and after entering the hand-to-hand encounter, the spear cavalry overshadowed the cavalry archers, and after the defeat of the Wei cavalry, it became the stage for the cavalry archers.
Sharp arrows, one by one, roared out, piercing the backs of Wei soldiers one by one, easily harvesting cheap lives. Such a long-range attack. For the cavalry of the Wei State. It's like a nightmare. The arrow shot from the back can't be dodged at all, and if you can escape, that's your luck, you can't escape, and you think you're unlucky. In addition to seizing the road and fleeing wildly, the Wei cavalry did not even have the courage to turn back at this moment, let alone organize any effective resistance.
The lancers were not willing to be the only ones who were archers. Relying on the speed of two or three percent, biting the rear of the Wei cavalry, it was like a group of vicious wolves chasing the sheep, and any sheep that fell behind would be easily torn apart by them.
The Wei cavalry was completely tragic, they couldn't fight head-to-head, they turned around and fled, and the once beautiful Great Wei cavalry became a live target for others at the moment, and they were hunted down one by one in the game of chasing. Of the 20,000 Wei cavalry, nearly eighty percent of them had no chance to escape from the Dishui Cliff battlefield. Those who get away with it don't do it because they're fast enough. It's because someone made a cushion for them, so that they were lucky enough to get out of here alive.
"The Battle of Jieting is coming to an end, I don't know what Sima Wang should do next?" Liu Yin's gaze was already through this battlefield that had long been doomed, and he threw himself to the farther east to the east, and the dirt mountain of the street pavilion was faintly visible.
Deng Ai is by Liu Yin's side at the moment, and the Shu army has won a hearty victory, which seems to have announced who is the real king of the battlefield in the world, and the strong shock that this battle brought to Deng Ai is indescribable.
No one knows the strength of the Wei cavalry better than Deng Aineng, in the competition for more than 40 years of the Three Kingdoms, the Wei cavalry has always been the proud capital of the Wei people, and they are also the capital of the Wei State to dominate the world, but such an arrogant army, today in the land of Longyou, has suffered a complete defeat.
If Liu Yin's attack on Longyou was a dangerous and dangerous attack, then in today's battle of Dishui Cliff, Liu Yin was completely defeated by the Wei army from the front in an irrefutable direction, and the real king's division was born from this moment.
"If my expectations are correct, Sima Wang will definitely choose to retire." Deng Aidao.
Liu Yin sighed lightly and said with a smile: "Why is Mr. so determined? ”
Deng Ai smiled slightly: "The cavalry is Sima Wang's trump card, today's battle of Dishui Cliff, the Wei cavalry was almost wiped out, and Sima Wang's arm was broken." What's more, the lord went out in three ways and attacked the rear flank of the Wei army from Lieliucheng and Guangwei in a roundabout way, which was an unbearable burden for Sima Wang. Sima Wang's soldiers have always been alert, knowing that he can't do it, it is definitely not his style, and now that the battle of Jieting has gone, Sima Wang will inevitably withdraw decisively to avoid greater losses. ”
Liu Yin nodded and said: "What Mr. said is true, Sima Wangru knows the current affairs, and will definitely withdraw at this time, if you wait for our army to complete the encirclement, and then want to get out, it is not so easy." The army was ordered to stop the pursuit, and all battalions and units were immediately assembled and prepared to march into the street pavilion. ”
┄┄┄┄┄┄┄┄┄┄┄┄┄┄┄┄┄┄┄┄┄┄┄┄┄┄┄┄┄┄┄┄┄┄┄
The evacuation of the Wei army was rapid and orderly, which was inseparable from Sima Wang's decisive decision, once Sima Wang made up his mind to evacuate, he would never hesitate for half a moment, and every time he delayed, the possibility of the Wei army being completely annihilated would increase by one point, and Sima Wang's resoluteness saved the fate of the Wei army at a critical time.
When the first rays of dawn in the morning sprinkled on the top of Tushan, the Shu army on the mountain was surprised to find that the Wei army under the mountain had gone to the empty village, and there was no longer a single figure to be seen.
But soon the army coming from the direction of Tianshui came into their eyes, the military uniform was so fiery, the flag was so familiar and clear, this army, isn't it the tiger cavalry battalion of the Shu army?
The whole earth mountain fell into a burst of cheers, and all the soldiers burst into tears, victorious, finally victorious! Repelled the enemy's attacks again and again, and in a desperate situation, the Shu army led by Fu Tong still created a miracle.
Liu Yin got the exact news of Sima Wang's retreat, and couldn't help but sigh a little, originally the three-way army was three-pronged, Liu Yin's goal was to eat the Wei army in one fell swoop, and then attack the empty Guanzhong, but now it seems that Sima Wang is indeed a general, able to judge the situation and make the right choice.
Although they were defeated in the Battle of Jieting, due to Sima Wang's decisiveness and wisdom, the Wei army quickly withdrew in an orderly manner.
This also invisibly increased the difficulty of the Shu army to win Guanzhong, but Liu Yin, who was already firmly established in Longyou, was not too worried, and it was almost impossible to crush all the way against an opponent like Sima Wang, which made Liu Yin look forward to the next battle of Guanzhong even more.
No one can stop Liu Yin's pace anymore, Liu Yin's eyes are on the east, deep and desolate. (To be continued.) )
