Yang Xiao was also a decisive person. After deciding that now was the best time, he and Yin Yewang rode forward.
It was only six or seven miles away, and the light cavalry would probably take less than a quarter of an hour to reach Inoue Yu's central army tent.
Of course, this is also the case when Inoue Yu is not defending himself.
Looking at the billowing smoke and dust in the distance, Inoue Xiong felt very incredible: "What does it mean? What does it mean? Is the Ming army taking the initiative to attack me?"
Inoue Yu looked incredulous, but Sasaki on the side quickly said: "Marshal, we didn't expect that the Ming army would move first. Now we can't wait any longer. Let our cavalry meet them quickly."
Inoue Yuyan said: "Why are you still standing there? Give the order quickly."
Sasaki quickly shouted to the messenger beside him: "Hurry, go and notify our cavalry and let them meet them immediately."
The messenger immediately took the order and left.
But from this moment on, there was a certain panic within the Japanese army, because Inoue Takeshi had just issued the order to form a formation on the spot, so this order had not yet been passed down through the layers. At this moment, Inoue Takeshi, the commander-in-chief, issued a second order.
However, what made the ordinary soldiers even more panicked was that Yang Xiao and Yin Yewang were as fast as the wind. They seemed to be too fast. At the beginning, it seemed that they could only see a cloud of dust several miles away.
When they came to their senses, the Ming cavalry seemed to be right before their eyes.
Inoue Yu was horrified: "Damn, where are our cavalry? Hurry, form a formation, we can't let the Ming army get close to me."
At this moment, for the commander of one side, every word he says is an order to command the troops of all parties.
Therefore, a very thick square formation quickly formed in front of Inoue Yu's carriage, with more than a dozen rows of Japanese soldiers holding large shields and swords blocking the way of Inoue Yu's carriage.
Moreover, the thickness of this formation is constantly increasing.
On the Liangyi Mountain, Zhao Min was delighted: "That's great, things are going better than I thought, and the Japanese cavalry has finally taken action."
Zhang Wuji also smiled and said: "That's right, most of the Japanese cavalry are distributed on the two wings of their formation. For such a large army, it will take time even if they move from the two wings to the center."
"It is possible that Yang Xiao and others will rush to the front of Inoue Xiong's central army, and their cavalry will only be able to surround them."
…
The outcome of the matter was basically the same as what Zhang Wuji and Zhao Min had expected.
It was indeed Yang Xiao's cavalry. When they were about to rush to the front of Inoue Xiong's central army, their cavalry had just surrounded them from both wings.
But even so, Yang Xiao and Yin Yewang managed to disrupt the formation of Inoue Xiong's central army under a rain of arrows.
Even the dozen or so rows of soldiers who had just lined up in front of Inoue Yu's carriage were bumped.
Everything happened so fast that Inoue Yu couldn't believe it.
Fortunately, just when Inoue Yu was in a panic, his cavalry charged on both wings of the Ming cavalry.
For a moment, the Ming cavalry was in chaos. They had to fight against the Japanese cavalry while facing the rain of arrows.
Fortunately, these cavalrymen were all veterans of many battles and were far superior to the Japanese cavalry. After just a moment, they stabilized their position.
King Yin Ye shouted loudly: "Protect the two wings, our reinforcements will be here soon."
Yin Yewang was right. While he and Yang Xiao were busy stabilizing their position, Zhao Min had already ordered the second red flag to be raised.
Ten thousand heavily armored Ming troops were following closely behind and charging forward.
…
"Press to both sides and leave space for the soldiers behind..." Yin Yewang and Yang Xiao were almost going crazy with excitement. They hadn't fought a war for more than five years, and they hadn't felt so refreshed for a long time.
Previously, they had thought that Zhao Min's act of digging out the Japanese scout's heart was somewhat bloody, but now, what they were doing was also bloody.
Every time the two of them swung the steel knives in their hands, they would either rip open a Japanese soldier's belly or separate his head from his body.
Inoue Yu already felt a little fear. Just a few thousand Ming troops had shaken the camp of his 200,000-strong army. What was happening at the moment was so different from what he had imagined before.
However, just when he had stabilized his formation, Zhang Dingbian and Wei Yixiao's 10,000 heavily armored infantry were already following closely behind him.
"Quick, let the soldiers on both wings surround them and stop them."
Inoue Yu gave another order hysterically.
However, this order seemed a little stupid. He was too close to the Ming army, and now every second counted.
With an army of 200,000, the distance from the center to the two wings is several miles. When the Japanese on the two wings surround them, it is hard to say what the situation will become.
If Zhao Min did this, she would definitely push her central army forward first, and then let the troops on both wings move closer to take over the position of the previous central army.
…
About two quarters of an hour later, Wei Yixiao and Zhang Dingbian's 10,000 heavily armored infantry arrived at the location where they would meet Yang Xiao's cavalry.
On Liangyi Mountain, Zhao Min squinted her eyes and looked at the scene a few miles away, a smile already appearing on the corner of her mouth.
At this moment, Long Ze, who was not far behind her, hurriedly said: "Congratulations, Your Majesty, the great thing has been accomplished. Although Inoue Xiong has an army of 200,000, his formation is in chaos."
"What's the use of having more soldiers?"
