Chapter 544: To the North

"Never underestimate the enemy. ”

The Northern Army deeply realized this, and it was already a matter of the future.

The ancient Mongolian people are just more magical, this is the initial opinion.

The Gumeng people were just lucky enough to get advanced equipment, which was the opinion of Li Yaoshi after defeating the Gumeng coalition army.

The ancient Mongolian people are just relying on us to be unfamiliar with them, and their strategic level is not as good as ours at all, which is what they thought after retreating to Yunzhou.

Maybe it's because of hostility, maybe it's to strategically despise the enemy, maybe it's because you want to build self-confidence through YY...... But whatever the reason, the Northern Army of the Great Song Dynasty paid the price for it.

Informants, on both sides. However, the Great Song intelligence officers have always despised the Gumeng intelligence officers, because the Gumeng intelligence officers have never been inferior to them in terms of precision and accuracy, if it weren't for the enchantment of the intelligence blockade, how could they be so passive. Even now, face to face on the battlefield, the Gumeng intelligence officers are inferior to them...... As for Qing Guo? To find out, it is a secret agent, although they have the ability of intelligence officers, they are more likely to hide alone, and the effect of the stunt "micro-service private interview" is to disguise themselves as civilians, what is the difference between doing this on the battlefield and directly exposing it?

So the informants have always had a sense of superiority, but they have forgotten what the greatest advantage of the Gumeng people is.

That's right, it's magic, or rather, it's quantitative change that causes qualitative change.

If a squad can have one intelligence officer, it can be regarded as an elite squad, and most of the intelligence officers in the squad are part-time officers, and it is the squadron that really has intelligence officers, but it should be explained that those few intelligence officers in a squadron are not enough to cover the entire unit at all.

Maybe you have already understood that there are two ways for the ancient Mongolian people, one is to ignore the skill level, let more people serve as intelligence officers, and win by numbers, and the other is that they do not seek how strong their counter-reconnaissance ability is, but they want to cover the whole team or even overlap several layers.

Next, it was the reason for the paralysis of the Great Song Dynasty due to the preparation for retreat and the misjudgment of the situation, and as far as the result was concerned, it was only not far from the two teams of evacuated troops that the army of Gu Meng had arrived.

The reason why there are two teams, one team is of course Chen Duyun's troops, and the other team has this priority, and it also comes out with a mission. Yunzhou is similar to Wuwei, most of the people have been evacuated, but the diehards and workers have always been the last to go. Pharmacist Li's approach was very domineering and simple, that is, he knocked out the diehards and dragged them away, while the workers accompanied him. And judging from the fact that this army only moved after Chen Duyun's army set off, there is some truth in the statement of "taking the lead".

In any case, the troops left in Yunzhou City could not leave, this Gumeng's attack was premeditated, and Liao, Jin and Wei all sent soldiers, of course, they were just accompanying the prince to study. What was really terrifying was the familiar and hated force of the Song people, the Mongol army.

If the Great Song Dynasty could clearly understand the location and actions of the various vassal states of ancient Mongolia, they would find that the Mongols had not made any major moves so far, so they could guess that they were gathering momentum.

Gather momentum for revenge, and gather momentum to take Yunzhou, the headquarters of the Northern Army, to achieve the goal of revenge.

The death of 400,000 people was nothing more than a blow to the level of the last of the great powers, but how fortunate Mongolia was, after Temujin, there were geniuses such as Ku Lie, who led the Mongols to revive again, and once again reigned on a par with the Xiongnu...... It's only been five years.

This time, this battle, as the first battle for them to return to the Great Song Dynasty, they dispatched 200,000 troops and vowed to bloody Yunzhou.

Faced with a menacing enemy with old hatred, Pharmacist Li quickly chose the helpless policy of defending the city. In fact, the number of soldiers in the Northern Army exceeded 500,000, of which 200,000 were in the area of Beiping and the Great Wall.

"I know I can't defend it, but now that the enemy is gaining momentum, please be patient and wait for your chance. ”

Having said that, with stronger magic power, more than 200,000 enemies were like 400,000 attacking, and Yunzhou instantly felt a great pressure.

The magic projectiles released by the enemy catapults quickly flew above the city, freezing the clouds and water vapor in the sky, turning into icebergs and falling. In the process of the iceberg falling, the enemy constantly applies enhancements and additional magic to it, and even tries to make the iceberg be recognized by the system as a natural and man-made disaster, while the defender must constantly defuse the enemy's means to reduce the lethality of the iceberg to the extent that the protective barrier can withstand.

Soldiers skilled in earth-based magic began to try to escape the ground, or create landslides to destroy the walls. The significance of the city wall in the age of magic is mainly due to the concept bonus of "defense" and the mechanical or self-discipline magic devices used in the enchantment, so the defenders naturally cannot watch the enemy succeed, strengthen the surrounding ground, or correspondingly escape to the place to start a "tunnel war". Since the wartime map also has a certain bonus in the vertical direction, only half an hour has passed, and ten kilometers underground in Yunzhou City, there are many ancient Mongolian soldiers and Great Song soldiers sleeping in it.

Of course, siege isn't limited to physical combat and direct confrontment of magic.

"Report, a high-intensity vibration source has been sensed!"

"Report, there is more than one source of vibration!"

"It's shelf concussion magic!"

"How can the enemy army do this kind of magic?" Many generals were shocked, because the Mongols did not have such means in the past, but they did not panic, because there were also ways to deal with them.

There are concussion-causing magic, and naturally there are also means of resonance or countervailing, the former is a lose-lose method between the two sides in the field battle, and the latter is what the Yunzhou defenders are now going to use.

"The water is coming!"

"The meteorite has fallen, ten kilometers in diameter!"

"Freeze, where there is not enough manpower, send the fire system, and evaporate it for me instantly!"

"Everyone gather their strength on me and watch me blow up the meteorite with one punch!"

Unlike the aesthetic mechanical warfare of ancient science, magical warfare is more like the embodiment and instantaneousness of natural disasters.

The people described in the Chronicles of Earth as spending days to store water and then burst the embankment to flood the Seventh Army are so graceful, but in the wizarding world, especially after the number of people on both sides exceeds 100,000, it can all be done and performed in only a few tens of minutes, and what is even more terrifying is that people can defuse it faster.

Of course, fast comes at a cost.

"The enemy is going to consume our spirit and magic power, Marshal Li, please make a decision early!"

In fact, it is very expensive for the defenders to deal with these means, but the biggest advantage of defending the city is that the animatronics will allow them to recover faster at this time, and they can use the facilities in the city to replace some of the manpower...... But the situation now is that the enemy will launch a fierce attack as soon as they come up, and they will not have time to find an opportunity to retreat.

Even if they can hold on for a month, the only thing that awaits them is the enemy's encirclement!

……

"It's over......"

The changes in Yunzhou City, of course, did not hide from the two troops in advance, but in order to avoid being attacked by the enemy, they chose to flee south as soon as possible, and later found that there was no Gumeng army chasing them, so they slowed down to find out the information. This inquiry, the general of the army with civilians couldn't help but mutter, and the whole person seemed to have lost his soul.

Yunzhou will definitely be able to hold on for a long time, but the people inside will definitely not be able to escape.

At this time, he found that there was something wrong with the movement of Chen Duyun's troops, and hurriedly transmitted the news.

"Brother Chen, what are you trying to do here?"

"I'm going back to the rescue!"

"Are you crazy?" the Admiral was stunned.

"I'm not crazy, the main force must be evacuated, otherwise everything will be in vain!" Chen Duyun said resolutely.

Of course, this general is not a parallel import, and he understands that Chen Duyun is very reasonable, but despair and fear prevail, especially because he is afraid that Chen Duyun will want him to go back with him.

No one wants to die in vain, because that's not courage, and of course, it's possible to make excuses when you say it.

Chen Duyun saw the thoughts of his colleague, and hurriedly said:

"Lord Zhao, you just continue to carry out your mission, there are so many civilians in your team, don't get involved in my battle. ”

"How can this work?" the general surnamed Zhao was both happy and a little unhappy, and at the same time did not forget his identity, "I think we should think about it in the long term and think of a way to get the best of both worlds." ”

"So what to do?"

"This ......" General Zhao couldn't speak, and after thinking about it, he said, "But you have so few personnel, what can you do if you go?"

"I can harass enemy forces around the perimeter and act as bait. ”

"The other party is a Mongolian cavalry, you are looking for death!"

This is said to Chen Duyun's heart, after thinking about it, he still decided to speak:

"So I would like to ask Lord Zhao to hand over all your mounts and extra cars to me. ”

This is also risky, because Gu Meng may send chasing soldiers, and they will be doomed if they only have two legs and civilians left, but if they can be generals, they will naturally not be outright greedy for life and afraid of death, General Zhao does not want to go back, but Chen Duyun's request can still be agreed to through gritted teeth.

Soon, except for the fainted civilians and the vehicles with the necessary materials, General Zhao gave Chen Duyun all the means of transportation and mounts.

"I'm sorry. After the handover, General Zhao hesitated.

"Lord Zhao, please send the people back to the south safely. Chen Duyun did not accept this apology, "They are all talents who have made great contributions to the defense of the city, and they cannot be sacrificed here in vain." ”

It seemed that he felt the heroism displayed by Chen Duyun, and General Zhao's military blood burned again.

"I promise to complete the mission!"

General Zhao left with his troops, but someone in Chen Duyun's army was in a hurry.

"What are you waiting for, we'll kill you right back!"

Ma Niancai is usually not so impulsive, but Lei Tianhua stayed in Yunzhou City, which also means that a certain woman stayed there to live and die with him.

"Wait, there's still some questions. ”

After the reorganization of Chen Duyun's army, it has basically achieved "full motorization", even if there is no mount, there are many people sharing the vehicle, and the army forging division is rushing to change the vehicle to a state that can be easily deformed, and it is estimated that it can be completed on the road, although it is still slower than the formal cavalry unit, but it is enough to harass and lure the enemy.

As for the morale of the troops, knowing that they can fight, the generals of the Yuanyue family army are very spiritual, and those integrated remnants -

"You can retreat with Lord Zhao. ”

Chen Duyun had suggested this before, but surprisingly, only one percent had gone, and most of the people had flowed.

Looking at the fire of revenge burning in their eyes, Chen Duyun also understood the general situation, and he stopped persuading him when the situation was urgent.

But other than that, he always felt that something was lacking, deeper than his mental outlook and equipment......

"My lord, our troops are a bit of a mess. Listening to Chen Duyun's words, the experienced Niu Gao quickly walked up.

"Messy? We've integrated a lot of people, so of course it's going to be a little messy. ”

"My lord, I mean our costumes. ”

Under the condition of ensuring basic recognition, the military uniforms of the Great Song Dynasty were freely designed by the armies of various places, which was a special permission given by the first emperor Sima Di considering that the eight kings were divided into various places.

Chen Duyun wanted to laugh a little, because now there was no time to change their clothes, but he glanced at his own troops and had to admit that this was what he cared about.

Even if the costumes of the troops are different from place to place, the costumes of the same unit must be the same, or in other words, they are different from place to place, because there are differences between the various troops. On the other hand, it is to let the army have a sense of identity with its own troops, and the merits of the troops can be displayed from the military uniform, and the sense of superiority can be obtained from the difference. For the same troops, the same clothing can increase cohesion and invisibly improve spirit.

The idea of building an elite army had never been forgotten, and the idea of bringing victory to his subordinates had exploded a few days earlier, and the newly integrated soldiers' impulse to take revenge on the Gumon had successfully affected him.

Who doesn't know that this mission is dangerous, but if you want to get glory, you must overcome all obstacles!

"Listen, everyone, we're going to be bait, so we need to be more visible. ”

Don't have time to change your clothes?

He gently touched the gift from Xinlan that he was wearing behind him, and then looked back at the group of soldiers who were dyed in the same color robes.

"All the troops are attacking!"

The army responded as if it were rushing.

Draped over everyone, the white robes, enhanced by magic, fluttered and howled with the winds of the army, as if longing to be stained with the blood of the enemy, as if shouting victory!

The legend that only belongs to Chen Duyun has begun.
