    On the vast grassland, the army led by Nie Feng moved forward in an orderly manner.

    The army is like a long snake, stretching across the grassland.  However, the arrangement of the army is extremely sophisticated.  The center of the team is the main infantry of the army.  In the area outside the infantry, there are shield soldiers and pikemen. These soldiers are equipped with grenades, rifles and other weapons.

    On the outermost side, there is a group of cavalry accompanying them.

    The entire team, even if it is attacked, can respond at any time to ensure the steady advancement of the army.

    Nie Feng was in the military formation, and he rode his horse at a leisurely pace.

    In the army, there are also cannons and rifles. As for the cannons, they are specially transported by artillery.  Fortunately, this is a mortar, which is light and easy to carry. If it were a cannon weighing more than a thousand kilograms, or a heavier cannon, transportation would be a problem.

    Nie Feng's army entered Mengshan Plains and after walking a certain distance, suddenly a sentinel sent back news that Xianbei cavalry was nearby and had rushed over quickly.

    This is for attack.

    Nie Feng has already thought of countermeasures, and there is no need for Nie Feng to give orders. The generals in the army have already been specially assigned to deal with it.

    It didn¡¯t take long. Less than a quarter of an hour later, in the direction of the Chinese army, a large number of cavalry appeared outside and spread out, then headed towards the formation of the team.

    The rushing army never stopped, but continued to move forward steadily.

    When the Xianbei cavalry under Yuwen Tong approached and the distance closed to about a hundred paces, the Qi cavalry did not go up to fight, but retreated to the left and right wings of the army to assist the spearmen in guarding.

    The Xianbei cavalry approached, but the Qi soldiers on the way in the center did not stop. The soldiers guarding them on both sides walked forward while raising their rifles to shoot.

    Gunshots sounded one after another.

    The cavalrymen under Yuwen Tong also raised their guns to fight back.

    It was just shooting from both sides, and Yuwen Tong's soldiers were at a huge disadvantage.  Because the cavalry fired while riding on horseback, their accuracy was really poor, and even the force of the recoil from the shot would make them unstable and unable to calibrate.  The only advantage is that it can get closer quickly.

    The Qi soldiers also have disadvantages.  Even if the soldiers of Qi hurriedly raised their shields for protection, the bullets were fired. Although the design was scattered, people were too crowded and could easily be shot.

    Of course, there are advantages to having more people. Qi¡¯s army has more people and more people to shoot, so when they shoot, the bullets are dense. Yuwentong¡¯s people also have many casualties, harvesting the lives of Xianbei soldiers.

    The Xianbei soldiers under Yuwen Tong were shot and killed, but most of the cavalry were getting closer and closer.

    The distance was reduced to less than forty steps.

    Within this distance, it is easier for the Xianbei people to shoot.  Looking around, there were densely packed Qi soldiers everywhere in front.  Just lift the gun and shoot, it's easy to hit.

    Within this distance, Qi soldiers began to throw grenades to fight back.  The soldiers acted quickly, and grenades flew through the air, falling on the grassland and exploding in an instant.

    Explosions rumbled, and Xianbei soldiers were killed one after another.

    There were many casualties.

    Especially the Xianbei soldiers who were close to the team were almost easily killed.  Under the counterattack of grenades, the Xianbei people's offensive was unable to launch and had no great impact on the Qi National Army formation.

    The army of Qi State is still on its way steadily.

    The soldiers under Yuwen Tong¡¯s command were still attacking, but the soldiers under Yuwen Tong¡¯s command braved a hail of bullets.  Even when they were close to the Qi soldiers, the soldiers who had been prepared raised their shields to resist, and thrust out their spears quickly, killing the Xianbei soldiers with a thump.

    Even though the Xianbei soldiers intended to attack and tear a hole, at the moment, Yuwen Tong's soldiers encountered obstacles at every turn and could not win at all.

    When Yuwentong got the news, he even didn¡¯t believe it.  The soldiers under his command were sprinting with all their might, but how could they be suppressed and unable to carve out a hole?

    Yuwentong didn't think about it, so he simply went to the battle site not far away and directed the attacking soldiers to rush forward.  However, under the defense of Qi soldiers, and although Xianbei soldiers attacked, they lacked weapons, and the offensive was obviously insufficient.

    When Qi opened fire, rifles, grenades, and even long guns at close range were all destroyed, no matter how close or far they were.

    When Yu Wentong saw it, he was furious.

    He directly ordered: "Come on, everyone, don't tear apart the defense line of Qi State's army. When Qi State enters the grassland, we will all die. Fight for me and break Qi State's defense line."bsp; "As for Tuoba Mountain to stop us, there are only two ways. First, take the initiative to stop us. Second, attack our rear. The problem is that our defense is more stable. If their army really wants to attack, there will be countless casualties.  "

    "We have the advantage, there is no need to chase them out."

    "On the vast grassland, we are fighting from behind. At this time, if we go deep into the enemy's hinterland, once we lose the pursuit of the enemy, our people will even lose their direction, which will be very disadvantageous for us."

    Nie Feng also nodded in agreement. He immediately issued a retreat order and ordered all armies to stop pursuing.  The order was passed on, and for about a quarter of an hour, all the troops began to stop and then returned to reorganize their formation.

    Nie Feng asked people to simply deal with the soldiers who had been killed, as well as the soldiers who were injured or killed, and then counted the results of the battle.  In this battle, more than 400 soldiers on Nie Feng's side died.

    There were even more people beheaded. A rough estimate was that at least nearly 4,000 people were beheaded.

    Overall, this battle was a great victory.

    Nie Feng reorganized his army and continued on his way, ignoring the retreating Xianbei people.  On the other side, Yu Wentong led his people to retreat. He retreated a certain distance and suddenly found that the pursuers behind him were gone.

    The Qi army never pursued him.

    Yu Wentong felt as if he had eaten a fly, feeling extremely uncomfortable.  He is about to meet up with Tuoba Mountain. If there are pursuers, it will be easier to explain.  Now that there are no pursuers behind him, Tuobashan doesn't know how powerful Qi's army is. How can he explain it?

    Yu Wentong was helpless and could only withdraw his troops sadly, and returned to Tuoba Mountain's army, which was already in a tight formation, preparing to ambush the pursuers.  When he saw Tuoba Mountain, he saluted and said, "General Yu Wentong, please pay homage to the general."

    Tuoba Shan said: ¡°Where are Qi¡¯s pursuers?¡±

    Yuwen Channel: ¡°All withdrawn.¡±

    "Trash!"

    Tuobashan scolded and said angrily: "I asked you to take 20,000 elite soldiers to attack the Qi army. But you can't defeat it, and you dare to kick the sentry who sent the message, and even said that you can't stop it. You can't stop it.  That's all, your army withdrew, but it didn't attract the Qi army to pursue it, which led to the ambush of my army in vain. Tell me, what use do you have?"

    Yu Wentong said: "General, I am guilty, please punish me."

    Tuoba Shan flicked his sleeves and said: "You are trash!"

    Yuwen Tongla shrugged his head and said: "The last general is a waste, the last general is incompetent, and he has let the general down."

    Listening to Yuwentong's tone, Tuobashan seemed to be a little dissatisfied. Tuobashan was furious and cursed: "Yuwentong, you have been clamoring in Xianbei to attack Qi."

    "You even threatened that once you encounter the Qi army, you, Yu Wentong, will bite off a piece of Qi people's flesh with your mouth. Have you done it? You have never done it."

    "You gave in when you were facing the people of Qi. Now you have fled back in a hurry, but you still have the nerve to shame me. Didn't you say that you want to avenge your Yuwen tribe and the Yuwen tribe members who died?"

    "Go ahead, why are you so cowardly?"

    Tuoba Shan¡¯s voice was loud and echoed around him.  Every general is cautious.  Tuoba Shan was in a state of anger, and if he didn't pay attention at this time, he could easily get burned.

    Yu Wentong was immediately scolded and confused.

    He felt even more helpless.

    He wanted to attack and counterattack, but the problem was that the enemy did not give him a chance because Qi was too strong.

    It¡¯s not that he is incompetent.

    It¡¯s because Qi is too cunning and too tyrannical.

    Yu Wentong understands Tuoba Shan¡¯s nature, that is, if you are strong, he will be stronger.  If he argued, he would be scolded to death, so he simply bowed his head and admitted his mistake and said nothing more.

    Tuoba said: "Yu Wentong, tell me, why don't you tell me?"

    Yu Wentong thought to himself, if I speak, you might scold me, so I might as well listen honestly.

    He lowered his head and looked at his nose, nose and heart.

    In short, just give in.

    When Tuobashan saw Yuwentong's appearance, he couldn't help but lift his foot and kicked Yuwentong.

    Yu Wentong did not resist, fell directly to the ground, then stood up again, standing honestly.  He didn't care how angry Tuoba Shan was, in short, he just had to give in.

    Tuoba Shan also became bored. He snorted, stopped talking to Yuwentong, and ordered: "The whole army rests. We will attack the Qi army tomorrow."

    "Judging from the battlefield during the day, the army led by Nie Feng has always chosen to defend. Even if he counterattacks, there is a limit. His intention is to go to our Danhan Mountain."

    "Now, we must defeat each other, otherwise the consequences will be disastrous."

    The other generals of the Tuoba tribe all nodded in agreement.

    But everyone¡¯s hearts were a little heavy. Yuwentong was also a capable general in the army, but he had a bad start.  Under this situation, everyone was naturally worried.

    Once the Qi army cannot be stopped, Danhan Mountain may turn into a sea of ??blood again.

    Some generals from various Xianbei tribes felt a little regretful because of their first failure in this battle, thinking that they should not attack Qi or harass Qi. After all, Xianbei and Qi had a good relationship before.  (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com)Otherwise, the consequences will be disastrous.  "
