Wars are fought in torment and continue in torment.

Even if he was fully prepared, the sacrifice of a large area of the Northwest Army was still unacceptable to Gu Tang. These are the elites of the Northwest Army, but they died in the most unskilled battles.

Gu Tang's face was calm, but the green tendons on his neck burst out, and the anger contained in it was self-evident.

On the battlefield ahead, in fact, Gu Tang was very satisfied, everything was in accordance with the most conservative situation, neither crazy nor retreating. Minimize unnecessary casualties, with the main goal of wearing down the enemy's defenders' defenses.

After several phased advances, the cavalry of the Northwest Army did not rush to the Dugu camp in a hurry, but began to assemble not far from the mouth of the gorge.

Because they knew exactly that the most brutal defense they had to face had just begun.

The most brutal defense of Dugu Gorge lies in the cavalry charge after the rain of arrows.

Because of the extremely narrow mouth of the Lonely Gorge, almost any attack force is useless here, which is also what Gu Tang is most worried about, so he plans to hoard heavy troops here before carrying out the next round of attacks, and strive to concentrate superior forces in one go, and break through the defense of the Dugu battalion.

"General, Gu Tang is really prepared. The deputy general said to Chen Chong with some concern.

"So what, if you want to break the world's No. 1 level with this trick alone, it would be ridiculous. Order the cavalry to be ready to attack at any time. ”

"Yes. The deputy general heard that Chen Chong was so confident, his spirit couldn't help shaking, and he took the order.

Gu Tang's eyes had already narrowed into a line.

The Northwest Army, which is gathering more and more at the mouth of Dugu Gorge, has reached the point where it cannot be accommodated.

Chen Chong said to himself: "Today, let's eat these thousands of people first." ”

Then he said to the herald behind him, "It's okay. ”

After the herald received the order, he raised the red flag from his hands without hesitation, and then raised his hands high and shook it vigorously in the air.

I don't know when there were many fewer archers on the cliff, and the generals on the cliff saw the order and hurriedly gathered the remaining people.

"Peel off the defenses. The general roared, and the rest of the soldiers worked together, and two unusually thick hemp ropes were pulled out by nearly two hundred people from both sides.

With a loud bang, the soldiers of the Northwest Army, who had just rushed to the battlefield in front, were stunned to find that there was a large-scale collapse on the ground behind them like an earthquake.

A width of two zhang, just cover the Dugu Gorge, about three zhang deep ditch, actually divide the Dugu Gorge into two, the ditch is full of spiked wooden piles.

Thousands of Iron Wind Banner soldiers had no way to retreat at this moment, and were trapped alive in this deep trench circle. And the hundreds of thousands of troops rushing to help behind them were also blocked by this deep ditch, and they could not advance half a step.

Gu Tang's heart suddenly fell into a cold deep cave. When did Chen Chong order someone to secretly dig such a deep ditch?

The momentary defeat of the six hundred archers turned out to be just a weight to lure themselves into being deceived.

In the blink of an eye, Chen Chong turned his hands into rain and played a beautiful tactic of closing the door and beating the dog, and the thousands of elites of the Northwest Army were shrouded in the huge crisis of being completely annihilated by the enemy.

In this battle, Chen Chong's name may spread all over the world.

The people in the carriage were finally willing to stretch out their hands as white as jade, lifted the curtain on the window, and then looked at the sunset that wanted to fall, and then glanced at the direction where Dugu Gorge was located, intentionally or unintentionally.

"Today's battle should be coming to an end. The young man glanced at the old man sitting on the ground and looked at him with disdain, "Don't sleep, saliva is pouring out." ”

"Where...... Nothing. Xing Lao hurriedly reached out and wiped the corners of his mouth, and after finding that there was nothing, he suddenly realized that he had fallen for this stinky boy, and in a hurry, a tall man jumped up and got into the carriage.

"Oops...... You're also seriously injured now, how can you still have the strength to beat people, others see how you explain. ”

"There is no one else in the barren mountains and mountains. ”

"And a horse with eyes bigger than brass bells...... Hey, Xing Lao, be light, hey, don't slap your face. ”

Closing the door and beating the dog is a favorite trick used by the defenders of the city.

Obviously, Chen Chong regarded Duguxia as a city.

And the last remaining wall is its own soldiers.

Of course, the trade-off is that such a tactic can only be used once, and the second time it doesn't work. However, the energy spent is huge, and once the number of enemies destroyed is too small, it is suspected that the gains outweigh the losses.

However, Chen Chong seemed to be extremely necessary to block the elite spirit of the Northwest Army, so even if there were only a few thousand people, he was willing to give it a try.

Hopeless, helpless, waiting for death. When the Northwest Army, which was trapped at the mouth of Dugu Gorge, saw the thousands of soldiers walking with longbows, three emotions instantly appeared in their eyes.

Some people tried to drive the horses back and cross the ditch by luck, but the horses remained motionless, for they also felt the fear from the ravine.

"Ready, shoot. Chen Chong personally gave the order, and looking at those helpless Northwest Army, Chen Chong finally grinned.

And the Northwest Army ushered in a rain of arrows in the next moment.

This time, all the bows and arrows came into battle at the same time, like a torrential rain, shooting at the only thousands of soldiers in front of Dugu Gorge with several times the original attack intensity.

One after another Northwest Army fell down wailing, no one cared, and even the comrades beside him did not hesitate to pull up their corpses and block them in front of him.

But the rain of arrows in the sky was as pervasive as raindrops, the war horses neighed to the end, the soldiers wailed to death, and after a while, the front of Dugu Gorge had become the Shura Hell, blood flowed everywhere, and it was impossible to distinguish which were horses and which were humans.

Finally, the generals of the Northwest Army, who were sober-minded, reflected and shouted: "Defense, defense in formation." ”

On the bloody battlefield, the only few hundred people of the Northwest Army dismounted together, held their shields high, and held up a large net covering the sky.

However, the Northwest Army, which was trapped in this small space by that deep ditch, could only hope for a moment of breath under this net. If there is no miracle, it is only a matter of time before the whole flag falls.

Gu Tang saw it in his eyes, he was extremely sad, and with a wave of his big hand, the two siege ladders that were originally intended to be used in the attack on Canghai City were carried out.

But the distant water could not quench the thirst of the near, and in a few moments the only few hundred people died again.

"Brothers, let's fight with them!" the general shouted angrily, since staying here is waiting for death, then don't die happily. Since there is no way to retreat, he begins to rush forward to fight a bloody way.

At this time, the bloody nature of the people of the Han Dynasty who were brave and fearless of death finally appeared.

They shouted wildly, braving the rain of arrows, and launched an attack in the direction where Chen Chong was.

"That general is not bad, give him a heroic way to die. ”

Chen Chong looked at this scene coldly, and a disdainful smile appeared on the corner of his mouth: "Bring a bow and arrow!"

A big bow with an iron back of cow tendon was delivered to Chen Chong's hand in the next moment.

Chen Chong pointed his bow and arrow at the general, and muttered, "Capture the thief, capture the king first!"

Cough!

Sharp arrows burst out of the air, sending out a deadly scream, and the mournful roar circulated in the long air.

The angry expression of the unknown general froze in the next second. He stared blankly at the sharp arrows in front of him, and the blood was gurgling out of his body.

Sore Spots... One piece of lukewarm.

The war was brutal, and when the remnants of the Northwest Army, which had lost its backbone, were at a loss, the rain of arrows above their heads actually stopped.

The group thought they might get out alive.

Although on the first day of enlistment, some people told them that the most glorious thing for a Han soldier was to die on the battlefield, but when it really came to the moment of death, who could not hesitate.

A small group of soldiers shouted out, and they didn't even rush to kill a second time, and the remaining Northwest Army, which was less than 100 men, was all killed and wounded.

Thousands of elites of the Northwest Army who entered Dugu Gorge were wiped out in this short period of three incense sticks.

The sky finally darkened, and even the last bit of orange-red was gone.

Gu Tang's eyes were scarlet, and his heart was extremely angry, but he had to blow the horn of withdrawing the army.
