Chapter 271 The Wei Army was defeated
As Zhuge's eight-dimensional three-dimensional formation diagram began to show its power, Sima Yi instantly felt that the rhythm was not right.
The Eight Formations of the Shu Army are extremely mysterious and perfectly fit the terrain of Pingyang Qiu. Even a small piece of slightly higher terrain on hilly and mountainous terrain can be perfectly utilized by the Shu army.
In such a terrain, the armored warriors on the periphery of the Shu army only need to consider the frontal impact. The Wei army that was pressing forward step by step was unable to suppress the Shu army head-on with more people and fewer people due to terrain restrictions.
In the central army, the Shu army's crossbowmen and archers suddenly exerted their strength in such terrain. An overwhelming barrage of arrows and crossbows flew down, hitting Wei soldiers from all directions.
The Wei soldiers who were marching forward with their shields were horrified to find that it was clear that there were enemies only in the front, but arrows seemed to be shot from four directions at the same time.
To the left, to the right, in front, above, there were arrows everywhere. Their shields were not four-sided and could not block such a full range of arrow strikes.
Suddenly, a large number of reserve soldiers in Sima Yi's central army were shot to the ground. The cavalry who tried to make a detour from both sides were also attacked by strong crossbowmen on the way up the slope, and those who were shot were turned upside down.
The sudden change caught Sima Yi by surprise. He didn't expect that the military formation could be played like this.
People in this era can only change their formations when playing military formations. If they can change from a round formation to a square formation, they are already a veteran. Most generals can't even understand the three-dimensional military formations, let alone further training.
But Zhuge Liang actually gave him such a big gift, which was so big that Sima Yi couldn't accept it.
Of course, this is also a method that is forced and forced to do so under all kinds of disadvantages.
As long as Zhuge Liang takes over the Shu Han regime, the Shu army can have more cavalry and more generals. Will Zhuge Liang study the three-dimensional military formation that extremely needs terrain?
He wished he could command the Shu Han army on the plains and crush the Wei army in an upright manner.
Zhuge Liang has painstakingly studied the eight-dimensional three-dimensional formation diagram for many years, and showed his power in this battle. The Wei army, twice as many in number, pressed forward fiercely. As a result, they were in a stalemate for half an hour, unable to move forward.
The Wei soldiers on the front line were okay, they were just in a stalemate with the armored soldiers of the Shu army. However, the Wei army, which was in the middle and could not move forward, was in misery. It was violently hit by the Shu army's crossbows and arrows.
As the Shu army struck with crossbows and arrows, the central army of the Wei army was severely hit. A large number of soldiers began to feel timid after seeing the surrounding robes being shot into sieves.
Seeing this situation, Sima Yi suddenly felt bad.
If this continues, the Chinese army will collapse. Once the soldiers in front found that there were no teammates behind them, their morale collapsed in minutes.
At that time, it was not a matter of whether he could capture Zhuge Liang and his car. By then, there will be a question mark as to how much he can take away from this unit.
"Zhao! You go to the central army immediately and follow my orders to supervise the army. Don't let the central army retreat!" Sima Yi turned to look at Sima Zhao, his face becoming more solemn than ever before.
"This matter is very important. If we fail, we will all become prisoners of the Shu people!"
"Ah? Me?" However, Sima Zhao had a look of astonishment on his face. He couldn't help but feel timid when he looked at the military formation in front of him that was almost drowned by the rain of arrows.
He doesn't want to be shot into a hedgehog!
That hurts so much...
"Go quickly! If you go too late, Ziyuan will be in danger!" Sima Yi was furious. While urging Sima Zhao, he prepared his own horse and prepared to go to the front army to supervise the battle.
However, before Sima Yi could make any move, he heard a commotion from the side.
"Ah! Why are there Shu cavalry here!"
"Where are our cavalry!"
"Help! We are surrounded by Shu people!"
…………
Sima Yi suddenly turned around and saw that thousands of Han cavalry appeared from the flank of the Wei army. Under the leadership of a young man in white robes, they rushed over unstoppably.
"I am Ma Dai! The Wei dog will die soon!" Ma Dai suddenly appeared on the side of the Wei army with three thousand Qiang and Di cavalry, like a divine soldier descending from the sky.
At this moment, he was dressed in white clothes and armor, just like Ma Chao back then. Under his leadership, the Qiang and Di cavalry, each one worth ten, charged forward bravely.
"It's broken!!" Seeing this situation, Sima Yi's expression changed, and he realized something was wrong at this time.
It is true that the Shu army does not have many cavalry, but it does not mean that they have no cavalry. Moreover, Ma Su was not the only one in the Shu army who could lead cavalry, Ma Dai could too!
At this moment, there are only a thousand cavalry on Sima Yi's side for cover. At this time when the connection between the central army and the front army is improper...
With Sima Yi's ability, Ma Dai and his three thousand cavalry really couldn't charge in. But at this moment, when the Wei army's offensive was frustrated and its morale was fluctuating, Ma Dai's appearance became the first domino to fall!
The Wei army began to panic, and the soldiers' timidity and fear began to accumulate. As the war became more and more unfavorable, and as the Shu army's bow and arrow strike range became wider and wider, this fear began to spread.
Zhuge Liang was keenly aware of this. He faced the strong wind in Liangzhou and looked at the Wei army's formation in the distance, which had begun to become chaotic.
"It seems that the Wei army's morale is shaken and their formation is in chaos. The enemy is defeated now!"
"Army attack!"
As Zhuge Liang issued the order to attack as a final verdict, the Shu army officers and soldiers launched a comprehensive counterattack.
The Shu army has always faced enemies from soldiers in the outer phalanx. The soldiers in the middle guarding Zhuge Liang are still a fresh force at this moment!
Before the exhausted soldiers of the Wei army who had just fought with the Shu army could prepare, a large number of Shu army soldiers who had been waiting for a long time came out like an overwhelming force!
The Wei army was finally unable to stop them, and in just a quarter of an hour, the vanguard soldiers were defeated. The 20,000 Shu troops shouted together and came with endless fighting spirit to fight back. They were unstoppable!
The Wei army was defeated!
"kill!!"
"Capture Sima Yi alive!"
"Help the Han Dynasty! Kill all the Wei dogs!"
…………
Seeing that the front line seemed to collapse in an instant, Sima Yi was dumbfounded.
I held it in for more than a month to build up the anger and fighting spirit of my soldiers. Later, after the Western Region Allied Forces contained part of the Shu army, they used superior force to suppress it.
The result was that after the first battle, the Wei army was severely defeated by the Shu army!
I thought I was holding it in, but it turned out that I had a loose stool!
"Father!" Sima Zhao was even more frightened. Even he could see that his family might have been defeated.
And as the Shu cavalry on both sides got closer and closer, the Wei army's formation was already in disarray. A large number of soldiers simply threw away their weapons, took off their armor, and fled backward in embarrassment.
"Quickly withdraw the troops!" Sima Yi shouted the last words hoarsely as if he had exhausted his last bit of strength.
"The whole army retreats!"
