1873 Bai Chong's decision
In the battle just now, Yan Shan had already used all his strength, but the casualties of the demon clan were about one-third.
There are still about 300 people alive, and these people still have a very strong fighting force.
The saints remained at about fifty people, these saints were not in any serious trouble, and there were not many people on the main Yanshan side who could cause harm to them, and Yuan Shoucheng only killed a few of them, and the other few demon generals only blocked some people.
As for the other holy steps in Yanshan, two have already been killed in battle now.
However, the morale of the camp of the demon army did not seem to be very high, and everyone lowered their heads and walked around the camp aimlessly, like walking corpses.
In the tent in the center of the camp, Bai Chong and Zhong Wu sat opposite each other, and the atmosphere between the two was very solemn.
Zhong Wu's eyes were meaningful, he looked at Bai Chong and said, "Why do you want them to retreat?"
The order to attack was given by him, and he, as the supreme commander of this force, had the right to decide on this wrong decision, but now Bai Chong challenged this decision, and it was a decision made when they lost the ability to think, without passing through himself, and directly let the whole wrong retreat.
In the army of the demon clan, this is a big taboo, the deputy is the deputy, and when the state of the main general is still very sober, it is not allowed to make claims, which is to challenge the majesty of the main general.
Only if the chief general has lost his ability to judge, the deputy can give orders directly, and even then, with the consent of some of the other officers inside.
What Bai Chong did was to challenge his majesty, and if he couldn't give a reasonable explanation, his Zhongwu face would be swept away.
Bai Chong looked at Zhong Wu without evacuation, and suddenly smiled lightly, he seemed to want to ease the atmosphere here, but it didn't work, Zhong Wu was still expressionless.
In this way, Bai Chong also restrained his smile and looked at Zhong Wu like this.
Zhong Wu's heart jumped.
"This kid's strength is now on a higher level, and I'm seriously injured, and now I'm going toe-to-toe with him at this time, in case this kid has a bad heart in his heart, wouldn't it be very troublesome for me. ”
Although he knew that such a possibility was very small, he had to take precautions, and in the eyes of outsiders, he was indeed seriously injured enough to threaten his life.
He and Bai Chong are not close to each other, and the positions of the two sides are also different, if Bai Chong has the opportunity to do it himself, he may not give up easily.
"Of course, if you attack for a while, you will definitely be able to fight. ”
In the end, it was Zhong Wu who spoke first
Seeing Zhong Wu speak, Bai Chong smiled again, and the solemn atmosphere between the two finally eased, Bai Chong said: " At that time, our formation was already very messy, and Yuan Shoucheng and Liu Qian's attack also dealt a big blow to their morale, even if they were forced, the casualties would probably be very large, and the gains outweighed the losses, since this is the case, it is better to retreat for the time being, the casualties on the Yanshan side are much larger than ours here, and their crossbow arrows have been used almost, and the next attack, as long as we launch a wave of strong attacks, they will be directly defeated. ”
This explanation is very reasonable, Zhong Wu's face is finally a little better, he didn't put the key point on why Bai Chong didn't get his permission and made his own claims, and now he finally has a good reason.
Zhong Wu nodded and said: "Yes, you also have some truth, call those other people in, and study what to do next, Yan Shan, you must fight down, otherwise I won't be able to swallow this breath." ”
Bai Chong sneered in his heart, but he didn't mean to debunk Zhong Wu, after going back this time, Zhong Wu's face was already a sure thing, this one was not right until now, he had lost more than half of the people, but he hadn't even seen the appearance of Yanmen Pass.
He is an adjutant, and he will inevitably receive some punishment after he returns, but the main head is still on Zhongwu.
The army of the demon clan gives the highest authority to the highest unit, and correspondingly, their responsibility is also the highest.
Therefore, Zhongwu will never give up on laying down Yanshan, they are like this, even if they really get to the bottom of Yanmen Pass, they can't do anything.
If you can defeat Yanshan, it can be regarded as the past, after all, Yanshan is rich in materials, in fact, the demon clan is also very red-eyed, and has always wanted to get Yanshan, this is also an opportunity, he laid Yanshan. Even if you don't get too many meritorious deeds, at least it can be regarded as the past, and you can cope with the interrogation of high-level officials in the past.
The saint officers outside also slowly crowded into this tent, and their mental state was not good, and they all had sad faces.
Zhong Wu glanced at them, frowned, and said, "What kind of system do you look like this!"
These saints are all clever spirits, although they stand up straight, but the emptiness in their eyes is really impossible to hide.
Bai Chong also frowned, now that the morale of these officers is so low, you can imagine what the soldiers under them look like.
This is no wonder to them, Bai Chong and Zhong Wu also know about the situation.
They first came to attrition twice, and these two attritions were inexplicable, which caused a great blow to their morale, and they didn't even see the enemy's face, but so many people died, people are always afraid of the unknown.
They were already very frightened in their hearts, their mental state was already wrong, and they were terrified when they marched every day, for fear that something strange would suddenly appear in the next second, and then kill a bunch of them.
In this offensive and defensive battle with Yanshan, they were also like this, and their morale was quite good at the beginning, but after a long time, it was not good.
Bai Chong knew that in such a situation, he had to promise them a little benefit, otherwise these people would not have any more energy.
After thinking for a while, Bai Chong said: "Now that the instructions have changed a little, we don't need to go to Yanmen Pass anymore, and the top priority now is to knock Yanshan down." ”
These officers raised their heads when they heard this, but there was not much change, and now whether they hit Yanshan or go under Yanmen Pass, there is not much difference for them.
Zhong Wu glanced at Bai Chong, but did not speak.
And Bai Chong continued: "The above promised us that after defeating Yanshan this time, the loot can be collected by ourselves, and you can take as much as you can, and all the people you catch will also belong to you." ”
After hearing this, the dead eyes of these officers finally lit up a little brilliance, what did they come out to fight for, first, they wanted to establish meritorious service and go to a higher place.
But there are also many people who come for the loot.
When the demon clan is in war, in order to encourage the morale of the army, they will let their subordinates plunder, which is used to improve the army, which is really tried and tested.
This time it still worked, and knowing that they could dispose of the loot they got at will, these people had motivation again.
"This attack is a little hasty, I didn't expect that there are so many weapons on Yanshan, those things are really powerful, but by now, all the crossbow arrows should have been used up, hand-to-hand combat, these people are definitely not our opponents, and when the next wave of attacks comes, as long as they come into contact with them, they will collapse directly. ”
At this point, everyone in the demon clan is confident.
"They just caught us off guard, as long as we stabilized our position and launched another wave of attacks, they would definitely not be able to resist. ”
Bai Chong frantically poured ecstasy soup on these officers, and they just liked to eat this set, and after hearing Bai Chong's words, their eyes began to glow.
And Zhong Wu also said on the side: "Yes, if you can defeat Yanshan this time, not only will you be able to deal with all the loot yourself, but after you go back, you will also be rewarded, and when the time comes, the reward will naturally be indispensable." ”
The two of them have decided to carry out the flickering to the end, what order from above does not exist at all, as for this praise, it is even more fantastical, but now they are unscrupulous in order to stabilize the morale of the army.
The morale of the demon clan officers was indeed much better, and after leaving the camp, they went to their subordinates one after another and began to publicize all the news they heard.
Bai Chong and Zhong Wu were silent, they cooperated very tacitly at this time.
"At the moment, they can only use this method, their morale is completely lost, according to the current state, there is no possibility of laying down Yanshan at all, now motivate, it's a big deal to beat Yanshan, really give them something. ”
Bai Chong said with a smile.
Zhong Wu nodded, as for the reward of the high-level of the demon clan after going back, it will be a matter of time later, if it really comes to a certain point, it will be a big deal if he pays out of his own pocket and gives these people something, then it will be good.
The two of them glanced at each other, their eyes flickering a little, and they both understood each other's hearts at this time.
In fact, they didn't hope that this army would be able to go back at all, there were too many things to know, after they went back, the embarrassing experience of the two people in Yanshan would be known by everyone, this is not what they want to see, compared to this, if all these people die in this place, it is very convenient, the two of them can get all the resources of Yanshan, and the kind of promise after going back naturally does not need to be fulfilled.
Although neither of them spoke, they could see this in the eyes of both sides, but they didn't say anything.
This kind of thing, it's good to tacitly know, but it's not interesting to say it.
