Chapter 335: Annihilation (8)

On this day, Chidi's scouts were on a reconnaissance mission and discovered a patrol of about thirty men from Baidi; They saw that there was a huge difference in the number of people between the two sides, so they did not dare to make a move, but hid in the dark to observe. The scouts found that the leader of the other party was undoubtedly a high-ranking nobleman: the man had an arrogant face, "You all stay away from me", and rode a priceless horse, and the man and the horse were dressed in gold and jade, and sparkled, as if they were afraid that others would not know how rich he was. Later, someone recognized him: he was Bai Di Chongchen, the grandson of Duke Wen of Jin.

For several days after that, the scouts surreptitiously observed the patrol's movements. They found that Bohu and his squad were always patrolling at a certain time and route, and the scout reported the situation to Xianru, the son of Yushu, who was overjoyed and determined to annihilate this small but valuable army.

Xianru did not want to share his merits and booty with anyone, nor did he want to be prevented from obtaining his merits and booty (because Yu Shu forbade anyone to go to war without permission), so he set out with two hundred cavalry without reporting.

It was as if he had arrived at the intended place and set up an ambush, and Bohu passed through this place on time as usual. Seeing that Bai Di had entered the encirclement, Chi Di suddenly rushed out to attack, and Bai Di's patrol was suddenly scattered.

Bohu was obviously greatly frightened, and when he saw that the enemy was outnumbered, he only made a few symbolic resistances, and then fled in a panic in the opposite direction to the barracks.

Xianru was overwhelmed with joy and shouted, "The old guy is really dazzled! Catch that golden mule, and each of them will be knighted! The sergeants responded with their weapons and screams, and chased in the direction of the fox's escape.

The farther away the fox fled the camp, the closer the pursuers got closer. However, just when Chi Di felt that the big man was at his fingertips, an army suddenly appeared in the dense forest on the side, and Chi Di was cut into several sections in an instant.

Xianru realized that he had been tricked, and it turned out that in the eyes of the enemy, he was the "golden mule"; The coalition forces did not hesitate to use such a big figure as bait, just to lure themselves out.

Xianru turned his horse's head and tried to break through, but the back road had been cut off, so he had to continue to rush forward to kill. Chidi's rear team did not fall into the encirclement, and the soldiers galloped wildly, rushing to the friendly camp closest to the place of the incident to move the rescuers.

The commander of the barracks was almost frightened, and he sent people to report to Yushu while gathering the whole battalion of troops to fight. It was an army of 2,000 men, but the Jin army also began to attack, and the Chidi reinforcements were intercepted by a much larger enemy on their way to the site of the incident.

Furious and constantly scolding Xian as stupid and ignorant, he hurried out of the military tent and climbed onto the lookout. When he looked around, he saw smoke and dust billowing in the right-wing direction and waving flags; Hear the thunder of war drums and shout to kill and shake the sky. At this moment, no one could stop the two armies from fighting a decisive battle.

The intention of the coalition forces was to first tear a hole in the enemy's right flank and then advance to the center. On the one hand, he strengthened the right flank, and on the other hand, he transferred troops to attack, preparing to cut off the communication between the left flank of the coalition army and the central army; At the same time, he ordered the left flank to line up and wait for the coalition to attack.

In this way, the Jin people succeeded in pushing the enemy to the precipice of the decisive battle, and there was no retreat for both sides in this great battle, and the victor must be the bravest and most tenacious side.

When Chidi rushed to reinforce the right flank, the Jin Central Army also increased its troops to the Shang Army, and the Chidi Central Army rushed out to intercept it; The Jin army rushed to attack the Chidi middle army, and the left army of Chidi also attacked; In this way, the war was in full swing on a front that stretched for more than ten miles.

The battle began in order, with phalanxes opposing formations and cavalry teams; When it comes to hand-to-hand combat, it will all be mixed up, and at this time, a chaotic scene will be formed. A partial victory or defeat, a squad being completely annihilated does not affect the overall situation at all, people fight, horses and horses fight, and even the hunting dogs on both sides are torn together.

Chidi's soldiers were tall and fierce, and the Jin army's individual combat effectiveness was very inferior to that of Chidi. The Jin soldiers then looked for and used other conditions to make up for the shortcomings.

There was a large jungle behind the army, and Zhao Shuo took the lead in running in, and the sergeants followed him closely, looking like they were fleeing for their lives. Chidi gave chase, but after entering, he found that the Jin people were not fleeing at all, but chose a favorable location to fight them.

In the jungle, Chidi's tall frame and huge weaponry, shields and cards were obstructed by the branches and foliage of the trees, making them look bulky, while the Jin soldiers scurried nimbly, constantly hurting their defenseless bodies with their short spears and sharp swords.

Chidi signaled to assemble, but the trees, the enemy, and the jumble of voices made them lose their sense of bearing, and they couldn't find a rallying point, and they weren't in the mood to find it. The commander was forced to retreat after witnessing the constant slaughter of his men who were unable to inflict effective casualties on the enemy.
