Chapter 150 In front of the two armies
"Woooooooo..."
Long bursts of horn sounds sounded across the plains, announcing that a great battle would begin here soon.
The breeze blew a purple flag erected in the phalanx. On a chariot below, the Qi army commander Tian Shouzheng was looking at the allied army formation opposite.
As far as the eye can see, in the middle of the coalition formation stands a Wei soldier wearing red armor, while on the right side of it are green square formations.
The Wei army was in the center, the Korean army was on the right, and the remaining Song, Lu, and Wei coalition forces formed a formation on the left wing of the coalition.
His eyes slowly swept between the phalanxes on the opposite side. After seeing clearly the distribution of the coalition forces, Tian Shou already had a strategy for dealing with the enemy in his mind.
It was at this time that the deputy general of the Qi army standing on the chariot beside him said loudly: "General, our army has been assembled and can launch an attack on the coalition forces at any time."
When the deputy general's voice fell in his ears, a look of solemnity appeared in Tian Shou's eyes, and he raised his right hand to reject his plan to attack.
"Wait a minute to attack."
Looking at the red Wei flag erected in the Chinese military formation opposite, Tian Shou thought of the helplessness he had been subject to these days, and a fierce look flashed in his eyes.
"I want to go and meet the Sima of Wei State opposite to see what kind of person he is?"
"You lead the army and stand by where you are. I will go and come back." After saying this to the deputy general, Tian Shou ordered to the commander in front: "Drive to the coalition formation."
"Young man, obey the order." How dare the driver dare to disobey in the slightest, so he could only respond to Tian Shou's order in a low voice.
So, accompanied by a burst of neighing of war horses, the chariot that Tian Shou was riding on drove out of the Qi army's square formation and drove slowly towards the coalition forces on the opposite side.
In the formation of the Wei army, the coalition leader Gongsun Qi was also observing the opposite side. The strict formations of the Qi army made his eyes look solemn.
Although the Qi army was repeatedly defeated by the three Jin coalition forces in the past, neither the wealth of Qi nor the combat power of the Qi army should be underestimated.
Just as Gongsun Qi was carefully observing every move of the Qi army on the opposite side, he was suddenly stunned by the chariot moving out of the formation of the Qi army on the opposite side.
Just as Gongsun Qi was watching the approaching chariot and thinking about what Qi Jun was going to do, a voice from the opposite side rang in his ears.
"I am Tian Shou, the commander-in-chief of the Qi army. Can I come out to see you, Gongsun Sima?"
After hearing this question from the front, before Gongsun Qi could make a decision, a Wei army general on the side stood up and stopped him.
"Sima, the Qi army may be cheating."
"Is there a lie?" After shaking his head with a smile, Gongsun Qi pointed to the Qi army's formation in the distance, "In front of these two army formations, if the chief general of an army comes to deceive, the price the Qi army will have to pay
But it’s too huge.”
"Now that the general of the Qi army has gone into battle, if our army does not respond, I am afraid that we will be despised by the people in the world. I would like to see how this general of the Qi army is doing?"
After some words negated the obstruction of the Wei generals beside him, Gongsun Qi also ordered to the commander in front: "Drive and get out of the battle!"
"Here."
Following Gongsun Qi's order, the Wei military formation of the coalition army slowly made way for a road, and then a chariot drove towards Tian Shou who was parked not far away.
A few breaths later, the two military leaders, who had been fighting for a long time but met for the first time, met each other's eyes, and a meaningful smile appeared on their faces.
"Qi Guo Tian Shou, I have met Sima."
"Gongsun Qi of Wei State has met the general."
After the two of them greeted each other, they looked at the tall and tall Gongsun Qi opposite and heard Tian Shou say loudly: "It's really not easy to meet Sima."
"I've been scolding you every day before sending soldiers to the coalition camp, but Sima showed no sign of leaving the camp. I've been kept waiting for a long time for a whole month."
"General, you don't have to be like this." In response to Tian Shou's obviously pointed words, Gongsun Qi immediately responded: "Now, don't you and I meet in front of these two armies?"
"yes."
After saying these two simple words, Tian Shou's eyes slowly moved from Gongsun Qi to the coalition forces behind him, especially staying for a long time at the coalition forces of Song, Lu, and Wei.
"Does Sima think that with these soldiers behind him, especially the rabble, he can stop the 100,000 troops under his command?"
"From what I see, Sima might as well lead his army out of Puyang. This may reduce some unnecessary casualties."
Tian Shou's words showed his contempt for the allied forces, especially the Song, Lu, and Wei armies, but Gongsun Qi didn't seem to care about it.
He first looked at the Qi army formation opposite, then looked back at the coalition forces under his command behind him, and a smile appeared on his face.
"The two armies have not yet formally engaged in battle, and it is still unclear who will win and who will lose."
Looking quietly at Tian Shou opposite, Gongsun Qi said with a hint of a smile: "The general is so confident in victory, aren't you afraid that our coalition will defeat the general's soldiers then?"
After Gongsun Qi asked this question, the eyes of the two people met once again, and the smiles in their eyes became brighter and brighter.
"Hahaha……"
In front of the formation of the two armies, the generals of the two armies burst into hearty laughter.
After a while, when the laughter gradually stopped, the two men looked at each other with a burning desire to fight.
"In that case, let you and I have a fight today to see who is the winner?"
"I think so too."
After greeting each other, the chariots under the two men started at the same time, and each returned to their own phalanx along the road they came from.
"Dong dong dong..."
The sound of passionate war drums echoed in the ears, a ferocious vein appeared on his right hand, and a fierce look flashed in the eyes of Qi Army Commander Tian Shou as he looked at the square formation on the opposite side.
Looking up at the purple flag flying high behind him, Tian Shou's right hand slowly touched the long sword at his waist, and then he heard a crisp sword sound appearing on the battlefield.
The sunlight falling from the sky shone on the sword body, and the long sword pointed at the allied troops in front suddenly flashed with a faint cold light. Tian Shou's right hand holding the hilt of the sword became tighter and tighter at this moment.
"Soldiers, we have been waiting for a month, and now the enemy is standing in front of us. Charge forward and defeat them."
"kill!"
Tian Shou gave an order, and the Qi soldiers who had been waiting for a long time grasped the halberds in their hands and took their own steps towards the coalition forces on the opposite side.
On the opposite side, Gongsun Qi, who had been paying attention to the movements of the Qi army, naturally saw this scene in his eyes, and a solemn look slowly appeared on his face.
Holding the hilt of the sword tightly at his waist with his left hand, he heard the Wei army general beside him give a deep order: "Send the order to all the soldiers in the army to prepare to meet the enemy."
"Here."
When the sound of the four hooves of war horses hitting the ground echoed in his ears, and when the sound of a large banner waving in the wind echoed in his ears, Gongsun Qi's eyes quietly focused on the Qi soldiers who were approaching step by step in front of him.
