During the process of welcoming Aragas into the royal army camp, Yu Changsi had already learned the ins and outs of the matter.
When Wang Ren recruited Tuo Mo Jiu, he valued not only Tuo Mo Jiu's martial arts skills, but also Tuo Mo Jiu's relationship with Aragas.
After suffering two consecutive defeats, Wang Ren had no choice but to make this move, sending Tuo Mo Jiu to secretly contact Alagas. After receiving an accurate reply from Alagas, he withdrew from the battlefield and went to greet him personally.
Aragas knew very well that the entire nation of Abire was no match for the Great Jing.
Even if they formed the Atkins Alliance, they wouldn't dare to truly turn against Da Jing, and would only dare to send some mid-level generals to harass the border.
His most desired outcome was for the Great Jing to split apart on its own.
To speed up this process, he could give it a push.
This time, Abira has mobilized 50,000 soldiers and is absolutely confident of defeating the Zhao army.
Once Zhao's army is defeated, Abili will become a close ally of the current Dajing court, achieving both diplomatic objectives and weakening Dajing's national strength.
Killing two birds with one stone.
Yu Changsi's feelings were complicated. He believed that he could figure these things out, and Wang Ren couldn't possibly not.
However, Wang Ren still let the wolf into the house, allowing Aragas to gain the greatest benefit. This shows that after two consecutive defeats, Wang Ren superficially boosted the morale of the entire army, but in reality, he himself had lost confidence.
Yu Changsi shook his head.
This is where Wang Ren is inferior to Zhao Huan!
"Even if we win this battle, the Great Jing will be badly wounded, while Abilie will reap the benefits. Alas..."
Yu Changsi sighed inwardly, but he couldn't say it aloud. Wang Ren had already made his move, and he couldn't disrupt the game.
"Let's go take a look ahead."
Aragas walked out of the camp and said, "It's been many years since I fought against Commander Long. I'm getting old, and he's not young either."
"Increase the guards and march out of camp!"
Wang Ren shouted and led Alagas out of the camp. Alagas walked slowly due to his leg injury, but Wang Ren kept up with him.
On the battlefield.
The addition of Abire's army completely broke the deadlock. Bedo was not only the commander of the army, but also a fierce and brave general.
And they're the kind that actually have brains.
He led 50,000 men into the battlefield, first charging head-on to intimidate the Zhao army, and then, upon discovering the approaching Dragon Spear Guards, immediately turning to pierce the Zhao army's abdomen.
This action practically delivered his 50,000 men into the jaws of Zhao Jun's army, but Bedor was fearless, convinced that Zhao Jun couldn't possibly devour him.
Seeing this, Zhang Dalian understood Beethoven's intention and commanded the entire army to advance recklessly, relieving Beethoven of the pressure.
Zhao Hu's team was closest to Bedor and tried to cut him down to disrupt Abilie's army's rhythm, but they discovered that Bedor was also a top expert.
Zhao Hu had been fighting hard for several days, but he was still at a disadvantage compared to the energetic Bedor.
With the decapitation strike failing, Zhao Hu had no choice but to retreat slowly to maintain his army's formation and temporarily avoid the onslaught of Abiri's army.
The same was true for Xiao Luofeng's and Yue Jiti's troops. Faced with this suddenly emerging force, they fought it head-on without regard for anything else, otherwise they might have been caught in a pincer attack by Zhang Dalian and Beiduo.
With this retreat, Bedor completely cleaved Zhao Jun in two, severing his abdomen.
Zhao Jun's vanguard and rearguard were divided into two sections.
At this moment, Lian Zhongyi came out of the main camp and gave the order: "The vanguard retreats to the north! The rearguard returns to their camp to defend!"
This was clearly the result of a discussion between Lian Zhongyi and Zhao Huan.
Zhao Cheng, leading the Dragon Spear Guards in the vanguard, was the commander of the vanguard. He decisively led the vanguard to retreat.
Given the circumstances, Zhao Huan's decision was correct.
Despite the division of forces, Zhao Cheng retreated north, and neither Beido nor Zhang Dalian dared to pursue him closely.
If they pursue too deep, Zhao Huan can lead the rear guard to attack their rear, and then they will be the ones who get surrounded and trapped.
However, this sudden retreat resulted in the loss of many of Zhao's troops.
With the addition of Abili's army, Wang Ren finally achieved a victory.
"General Wang, how should we fight now?"
Looking at the changes on the battlefield, Aragas smiled with satisfaction.
Wang Ren's expression relaxed considerably, and he said, "While morale is high, let's concentrate all our efforts to break through Zhao Huan's camp!"
"No."
Yu Changsi said, "Turning the attack into a defensive posture was Zhao Huan's intention all along. His camp has already been fortified. We may seem to have won, but if we cannot take down Zhao Huan's camp in one fell swoop, our army will be put on the defensive."
Wang Ren said, "I know Zhao Huan's defense is very strong, but do we have any other choice? With the help of the 50,000 men brought by the Grand Preceptor, we can break through Zhao Huan's defenses even if we just overwhelm him with manpower!"
Aragas placed his hands on his cane and said, "Commander Long is indeed very good at defense. He did not let Zhao Cheng's vanguard retreat back to the main camp with him, but instead risked letting them roam outside, hoping that we would mobilize the entire army to attack the main camp, so that Zhao Cheng would have the opportunity to launch a surprise attack on our rear."
Wang Ren said, "As long as we are prepared, what can we do even if Zhao Cheng launches a sneak attack? Grand Preceptor, you're just reluctant to lose your 50,000 men, aren't you?"
"General!"
Tuomojiu said sternly, "If the Grand Preceptor were unwilling to sacrifice his men, he wouldn't have allowed Beedo to plunge directly into the abdomen of the Zhao army!"
Wang Ren snorted coldly and said, "I don't mean to question the Grand Preceptor, it's just that once this kind of opportunity is missed, it's gone forever. No matter how skilled Zhao Huan is at defense, we're only facing a large camp, not a fortified city!"
Aragas wasn't annoyed. He nodded to Wang Ren and Yu Changsi in turn and said, "Could you please listen to my advice?"
