If Ao's army marched quickly through the pedals laid by the sappers on the trenches overnight, the king in the forest could no longer hide his tracks, so he had to appear in a hurry in embarrassment.

The strength of both sides is basically equal, the strength of one army, 300 chariots, and more than 10,000 people. Even their formations were the same, with two rows in front of the chariots and a hundred-man phalanx behind them. Both sides wore the same uniforms, held the same weapons, spoke the same language, and even once ate and lived together in the same military camp to defend against foreign enemies.

It is likely that there are nephews or uncles, cousins or brothers-in-law in the opposite camp, and even the horses of both sides are familiar with each other. Now they are forced to become irreconcilable enemies, one defending the inviolable royal power with their blood, and the other exchanging their lives for the precious freedom.

Dou Jiao signaled to stop his advance, but he did not immediately attack, as if out of last respect for the king and did not want to force him into an embarrassing situation. Wang Shi used this time to line up his position. The sun was rising, the banners were unfurling and drooping soothingly in the cool morning breeze, the weapons glowed with a faint glow, and the soldiers stood like statues.

The king of Chuzhuang appeared, and his chariot came to the front of the king's division, and Bao Ai Hunt followed him closely. Restless agitation began to erupt among the rebels, and Dou Jiao clearly felt the pressure of the king's presence on the army, so he gave the order: "Bow your head, look down!" ”

The king of Chu Zhuang thought that it would be beneficial for him to hold on, because some of the enemy's soldiers had already wavered, and it was only a matter of time before the coalition forces besieging Deng County broke through the Qiaoying defensive line, and then Wang Zu and the coalition forces could form a situation of flanking from the front and rear and annihilate the Ruoao rebels in one fell swoop.

But King Chu Zhuang immediately realized that he was too willing. The king's division was arrayed facing east, and the strong light of the rising sun shone so strongly that they could not open their eyes or look straight ahead, but the enemy saw them clearly. At this moment, there was a sudden drumming behind Wang Shi, and the shouts of killing suddenly sounded - the strange soldiers led by Dou Zhen began to attack, and there was a commotion in the rear of Wang Shi. Wang Ziyingqi hurried to the rear team to direct the battle against the Dou Zhen Division.

Dou Jiao suddenly beat the drum, echoing the drum beat of Dou Zhen. Ruo Ao's chariot began to charge, and the dense phalanx also pressed over in the sound of "hehe".

The armies of both sides were finally pressed together, and the soldiers' eyes were wide with rage, but their eyes were filled with tears; Screaming frantically, but not because of injury. Still, they slash and slash mercilessly, as if they were enemies.

Doujiao rushed straight to the king of Chuzhuang with his guards (killing the leader of the enemy army was the best way to end the battle); King Chuzhuang also thought so, but he suddenly felt inexplicable remorse and regret that he shouldn't have left Zuo Guang in Yanxi (that was a strong guard).

The battle mainly revolved around the two commanders, and the main soldiers of both sides gathered around the commander, desperately trying to break through a gap and kill the opponent's commander. The situation seemed to be in Ruo's favor, because the Wang division was attacked before and after, and the army facing Doujiao was somewhat underwhelmed, although the commanders were still calm, the soldiers were a little confused.

Ruo Ao's infantry had already tore a hole in the opponent's defensive line, and finally separated the chariot of King Chuzhuang from the infantry; The king and his right wide guard were separated on the north side of the large army. Doujiao saw a gratifying situation and immediately led the army in pursuit; The invincible King of Chuzhuang fled in panic like a bandit.

With a chariot ratio of thirty to fifteen between pursuers and escapees, and with hundreds of panting and running infantry behind him, it seemed to Dou Jiao that the battle would really end soon.

However, the situation is so unpredictable: just as King Chu Zhuang did not expect Dou Jiao to sneak attack Wang Shi's rear team, Dou Jiao did not expect that the humiliating escape performed by King Chu Zhuang turned out to be an elaborate trap; In the jungle to the north, the king of Chu Zhuang ambushed the Shenbow troops led by Yang Youji, the first archer of the Chu State.

As he approached the jungle, Doujiao's forerunner suddenly shouted, "There is an ambush!" Then he was choked by an arrow and planted under the car.

Dou Jiao shouted: "Retreat! And the situation was reversed in an instant, the roles of the pursuer and the escapee were reversed, the ambush rushed out and fired a flurry of arrows, and half of the thirty chariots were killed in the blink of an eye, and Dou Jiao fled into the large army with the remnants.

The rebels still had the upper hand on the battlefield, and Doujiao once again mobilized his forces to attack the lone King of Chuzhuang. King Chu Zhuang returned to the battlefield from another longer road.

Dou Jiao took off his hard bow, which was longer than others, and put on a sharp arrow and watched King Chuzhuang shoot it from afar. The arrow stirred through the wheels and buzzed on the drum stand of the chariot. King Chu Zhuang was greatly frightened, and just as he was in shock, the second arrow arrived, and the sharp arrow grazed the wheel again, and trembled on the pillar of the umbrella cover. The soldiers rushed up, shielded the king's chariot and slowly retreated.

Dou Jiao touched the quiver again, and it was already empty; King Chuzhuang pulled out the arrow with difficulty, raised it high and shouted: "Back then, King Wen extinguished and got three sharp arrows, and Bo Di stole two, but they are all here now!" He can't hurt your king, he's lost his chance! After beating the drum hard, Wang Shi was excited, and reformed the formation and pushed forward.

Yang Yuji caught up and said, "Please give me an arrow, and I will shoot the old thief of the Dou clan!" "King Chuzhuang gave him both arrows, but he received only one.

Yoyuki's bow is not as long as the pepper, but it is wider and thicker than it. He looked at Doujiao and shot an arrow, and the sharp arrow burst out of the air with a whistling sound, and the agitated sound stinged the eardrums of the passing soldiers, and the arrow blade stirred up a scorching air current, which seemed to burn. The arrow broke through Doujiao's seven-layer heavy armor and pierced through his chest, and in the exclamation of the soldiers, Doujiao pounced on the car.

However, the arrow did not kill him instantly. After a while, Doujiao stood up with difficulty holding on to the railing. He took off his helmet, revealing his gray-haired face, which was still unruly in the last moments of his life; He raised his sword and let out a final roar: "If you do not defeat, you will die!" "Say that the sword is pointed at the enemy; His Yu Rong and Che You also suffered multiple wounds, and the two echoed his voice: "If you don't defeat, you will die!" "Yu Rong rode his horse for a long time, galloped into the king's division and died.

When the fighting finally stopped, the soldiers laid down their arms. The reason for their surrender was not so much fear as sadness. Many committed suicide, some had their companions kill themselves, and some were killed by bluffing into enemy lines, all of whom were close nephews of Dou Jiao, knowing that they would not be able to escape the judgment that followed.

In order not to irritate the emotions of the prisoners of war, the king of Chuzhuang ordered Bo Di's body to be wrapped in a white cloth and loaded into a car and taken away.

The bridge battalion was also overcome. It turned out that Xi Gongzi Hu began to look for the "people who know the times" in the bridge camp on the day he arrived in Deng County. After continuous exploration, he found that there are really many people who know "current affairs". Zihu pulled those men to his side and asked them to cooperate with the coalition forces, but as soon as the battle began, those people turned against each other, and Zihu captured the bridge camp in a short time. When the commander of the bridge battalion was defeated, he set fire to the pontoon bridge and cut off the allied forces from crossing the river.
