After Spring and Autumn

Chapter 249 The Battle of Iron City
Gao Zhang was also taken aback when he received the news, because Tieyi is not too far away from Wulu City, and if the army goes all out, it will only take a few days to rush there to support.

He really didn't expect that under such circumstances, Zhao Yang would dare to take the risk, and only brought [-] chariots to launch this surprise attack, and even avoided Fan Jishe's vanguard.

However, it was clearly written in the battle report that Zheng Guo's army had already defeated Zhao Yang, and as long as Tieyi was besieged, Zhao Yang would be unable to fly, but Gao Zhang was still a little worried, so he said to Guo Xia.

"I will lead the troops to support Ziyao and Ziban. You stay here and continue to stand firm. If you can really defeat Zhao Yang this time and capture him, then the battle will be over."

Guoxia did show some worry on his face, he didn't understand Zhao Yang's behavior, so he reminded him.

"Maybe Zhao Jianzi has other arrangements. Why don't we divide our army into two groups, one way to support the army led by Zheng Guo, and the other way to cross the river to intercept the reinforcements, so as not to be counted by Zhao Jianzi at that time."

And Gao Zhang's face showed a thoughtful look at first, then he shook his head and said with a smile on his face.

"Zhao Jianzi must have been forced to do nothing, so he decided to attack with a partial division, and wanted to catch us off guard. It was only after the last lesson that Zi Ban and Zi Yao were careful that they had such a result."

"If we divide our forces at this time, if the troops from Wulu City attack directly, it will be a trouble for us. The most important thing now is to seek stability. Even if we can't catch Zhao Jianzi this time, as long as we can win, we can explain to Marquis Qi gone."

Tian Qi escorted the grain and grass this time, and put a lot of pressure on Gao Zhang. The so-called thing is only three, if he loses again this time, then Qihou's opinion of him will definitely change, so in order to protect himself, he has to Carelessly.

After thinking about it for a while, Guoxia felt that what he said made sense, so he nodded and agreed.

Then Gao Zhang led troops to support the army led by Zi Pan and Zi Yao, but in order to prevent the attack, the marching speed was not fast, because it can be seen from the battle report that the princes' coalition forces are now dominant, so there is nothing to worry about.

At this time, Ziban and Ziyao had already besieged Tieyi heavily. They thought that the next step would be a siege battle, but who would have thought that the next day, Zhao Jianzi would lead his troops out of the city to prepare for the battle.

When the two of them saw that they began to gather the team and set up their formation, they looked like they were ready for battle, and Zi Ban said to Zi Yao at this moment.

"Zhao Jianzi is at a disadvantage, and he still opens the city to fight. I'm afraid there will be some accidents. Logically speaking, Zhao Jianzi is a man who knows how to fight, so it is impossible for him to do such a thing."

Hearing what he said, Zi Yao thought for a while, with a look of doubt on his face, he frowned and said.

"However, there are only so many troops under Zhao Jianzi now, and the military marquis has already been sent out, and there is no news of any reinforcements for the time being, and now the enemy is weak and we are strong, as long as Zhao Jianzi is defeated again."

"Then their morale will definitely be affected. At that time, they will not dare to go out of the city to fight again. Afterwards, Gao Xiangguo will definitely send troops to help, so that Zhao Jianzi will not be able to escape."

"So now we are going to stay the same, and we will lose some troops at worst. We must not let Zhao Jianzi break through! Just take advantage of this opportunity, and we will be ashamed!"

At this moment, Zhao Yang was also ready. He gathered all the generals together, and then spoke to them.

"At this point, we are already on the verge of life and death. If you retreat, our Zhao family's fief will be behind us. If we defeat the allied forces of the princes, we will be defeated. If we are defeated, most people will become the enemy's slaves by then. .”

"We can fight today. You charge ahead, and Zhao follows behind with an army of slaves. Now Zhao has made up his mind to die. I hope everyone can advance and retreat with me."

"After the start of the battle, you charge forward directly. You must completely disrupt the forward formation of the coalition forces of the princes. Only in this way can we have a chance. Whether we win or lose, everything is up to you."

When they fought before, they were defeated because of the huge disparity in their strength. From the bottom of their hearts, these Jin soldiers did not have the confidence to win this war. The reason why they stood here was because there was no way out.

There will be benefits if you win, and you will become a slave if you lose. With such a choice in front of you, why hesitate?
Following Zhao Yang's order, the Jin army was dispatched directly. These were basically Zhao's own men and horses. Seeing them rolling away, Zhao Yang also showed determination in his eyes, and boarded his own chariot.

The retainer Youliang was in charge, and Kuaikui was on the right of the chariot. Zhao Yang stood on top of the chariot and drew out his sword. He stared at the battlefield with a very solemn expression, then turned and spoke to the moving slave soldiers.

"Today, Mr. Zhao will go to life and death with you. If you win by chance, you will never forget the oath you made. The enemy army is right in front of you. Please follow Mr. Zhao's chariot and fight for a chance for our Mr. Zhao!"

After the words fell, You Liang urged the horse chariot to go straight forward, and the slave soldiers behind them shouted loudly with their weapons in their hands, and followed the chariot forward, fighting with all their strength as soon as they came up.

Faced with Zhao Yang's unconventional fighting style, Zi Ban and Zi Yao immediately realized that Zhao Yang was going to fight desperately, so they quickly ordered the front army to slow down and take a defensive posture.

Some small changes during the battlefield may affect the trend of the battle situation. After hearing this order, the coalition forces of the princes who were marching felt a little surprised for a while, although the Jin army on the opposite side was aggressive.

But they are too few in number, and as for the slave soldiers holding weapons behind them, they are basically negligible, because according to common sense, as long as the chariot soldiers attacking in front are defeated.

The pawns who lost the cover of the chariot will immediately fall into the situation of being slaughtered. Under such circumstances, the general actually ordered them to slow down and start organizing defense. For a while, there is still some unavoidable impact on morale .

The [-] chariots rushing ahead had completely ignored the rear. They had only one goal, which was to break through the opponent's formation and win a victory for the slave army behind them, so they rushed forward without any hesitation.

The speed was pushed to the highest in an instant, and it was completely a suicidal high-speed charge.
