Chapter 1568: A brief stalemate
The battle of the Nine Gates is defined as the most positive and fiercest war, which is actually mainly determined by its duration, number of participants, coverage and the significance of the strategic nodes. It is aware of the warmth and warmth of the people participating in both parties.
Under the influence of Guo Jia's combination formation, the two greedy snakes and a large millstone were added to the surface, facing Yuan Shao's troops successively filling the materials, and truly created a war with the largest number of people in the civilized area of the Three Kingdoms.
In addition to the 200,000 to 300,000 troops who were defeated by Yang Rui's two cavalrymen on the way, there were still no less than 300,000 troops who rushed to the battlefield in Jiumen County. Among them, some of them were defeated before and were forced to take to the battlefield again.
According to a soldier of Yuan Shao's army who survived the disaster after the Nine Gate War, after entering the Nine Gate County battlefield, almost all the robes lost their vision and sense of direction, and could only keep a straight line as much as possible aimlessly, and even not knowing where their opponents came from.
In the area, it is not only visually affected, but to be precise, there is almost no six senses. The communication range is only within the Xiaosan Talent Formation. The robes don’t know what will happen in the next moment, so they can only try their best to maintain the Xiaosan Talent Formation and follow the rest of the units.
Under this situation, Yuan Shao, the surviving soldier, recalled in detail the terrible aspects of the cavalry of Yang Rui's troops. He kept harvesting the lives of the robe as if a whirlwind could occur at any time, facing the concentration loosely, with almost no resistance.
In other words, the fishing net formation originally arranged by Yuan Shao was preparing to hunt down the large prey of Yang Rui's troops, but instead turned into a fragile bad net, which was ruthlessly shattered again and again.
The most important thing is that some of the "fishing nets" in the "underwater" are still invisible. Even if the grinder is pushed by two "long snakes", Yuan Shao's troops on the periphery still cannot detect the tricks, so they can only continue to fill in without any purpose.
Due to Guo Jiali's powerful formation combination, the balance of victory in the Nine Gate Battle was completely inclined to Yang Rui's side from the beginning. After almost 4 hours of experience, the war gradually subsided.
After Yang Rui's troops removed all the flags of the Four Symbol Maze Array, the nine gate battlefield was already bleeding and drifting, with a tragic scene.
Many Yuan Shao's soldiers died without a complete body, and were crushed by two "long snakes" strangled back and forth. There were so many corpses that were left uninhabited. It seemed like a rain had occurred on the ground. There were "water accumulation" in many potholes, and the surrounding areas were also covered with "mud".
It was not the first day that Yang Rui had joined the battlefield, but it was the first time he had seen such a scene in front of him. The most important thing was that the weather was still not warm at this time, and the ground had not been completely frozen. You can imagine what "water accumulation" and "mud" were.
The scene was very shocking, and Yang Rui felt a little crazy in his heart. In the huge Three Kingdoms civilization area, the most murders caused by him should be.
But Yang Rui soon returned to normal. If he did not commit these murderous crimes, there might be more in the future. The longer the murderous crimes and difficulties were waiting for the Three Kingdoms civilization area. What Yang Rui did now is naturally to avoid this situation.
Even so, Yang Rui also ordered the soldiers of his troops to carefully clean up the battlefield, and bury the remaining areas on the battlefield, regardless of their enemies and friends. For those "water accumulation" and "mud", Yang Rui ordered the troops to dig a large pit and bury them uniformly, and wrote the monument "Nine Gate Martyrs" to commemorate them.
When these things were done, it was already a game day. Yang Rui then led the commander to the camp and used half a day to rush the army to settle down near Wuji County, forming a vague surrounds the thread.
However, Yang Rui was just a deterrent to Wuji County and did not really take measures to attack the city. Even if another game day passed, Yang Rui's troops were still honestly stationed their troops there.
Yang Rui did this with two purposes. On the one hand, it was to wait for the troops of the East Railway, and on the other hand, it was to prepare an atmosphere.
The Nine Gate War needs to be transmitted and fermented. Wuji County is not far from Lunu County where Yuan Shao is located. This negative and tense atmosphere is naturally more brewing and more favorable.
At the same time, Yang Rui's troops from the East Road team have also taken Xindu City. It takes two or three game days to get there. After that, two troops attacked Lunu County City, and Yuan Shao was almost defeated.
At this point, Yang Rui's two troops had already controlled most of the Jizhou areas except for Zhongshan Kingdom, Hejian Kingdom and some Changshan Kingdom areas, especially the main cities, which were under Yang Rui's control. Only a few counties that were close to the three northern counties and states were still in the hands of Yuan Shao's tribes.
The situation of the final battle is also taking shape. Yang Rui and Yuan Shao's troops have concentrated most of their troops near Lunu County City, or are gathering in this area. There are very few troops to be stationed in other non-main cities, even the same is true for the areas controlled by Yang Rui.
Temporary garrison and rest were also an urgent need for Yang Rui's troops after the Nine Gate Battle. It was fine if the infantry soldiers in Qianji Xuanjia Camp were not consumed much; the two cavalry officials who acted as millstones and teeth almost all reached their limits.
After nearly 4 hours of continuous combat, no matter how many advantages they had or how many powerful formations and auxiliary skills they had, Zhang Liao and Zhao Yun, the two cavalrymen could only take turns to enter the camp to rest to support the entire battle.
There is another reason why Yang Rui's army stopped. In fact, it was necessary to supply hundreds of thousands of Yang Rui's troops. Yang Rui's transportation capacity was still very insufficient, especially Yang Rui's offensive speed and jump-like propulsion method, which was a great test for logistics transportation capacity.
In this way, because Yang Rui temporarily stationed troops near Wuji County, the battle against Yuan entered a short stalemate.
Unlike the vigorous war in Jizhou, on the second game day after the Nine Gates War in Jingzhou, Liu Biao finally couldn't help but send troops secretly and secretly sent troops to the three groups, almost following the same route last time, he approached the territory left by Yuan Shu in Yuzhou.
In comparison, Jingzhou has a larger regional temperature increase and is already fully suitable for dispatching troops to fight. At this moment, only Liu Biao and his family can free up their hands.
As soon as Liu Biao moved, the information quickly reached Yang Rui's hand. An envoy went to urge Liu Dan to act without mentioning it, but said that Guan Yu seemed to have received some news. After arriving at Huojia County, he also headed south at this time.
