In fact, with Zhang Haoran's suggestion, after going back this time, he will play the saint and use other methods to deal with the other party!

Either the two sides live in peace, or, starting from the side of all ethnic groups in Baiyue, or, send a large number of high-level elite soldiers to strive to kill and maim the other party, it is by no means like now, so many armies are doing things that they are not sure of, and it is very likely to send a personal head to the other party!

The general soldiers of the Zhenxi Army are also the elite of big businessmen and the artifact of Zhenguo, so they should not take such a risk.

However, now, he obviously can't convince Zhao Qian.

Or do you want to gamble in your bones?

After all, the previous loss was too bad.

What Zhao Qian said is actually not an absolutely unfeasible plan.

After all, Zhao Qian can be the president of this operation, and he is not a person without ability.

"Start dividing your troops?"

"Still won't give up?"

Receiving the message from his subordinates again, Li Yi was surprised.

The enemy is not dead in their hearts?

Or, he didn't burn the other party's grain and grass last night?

November 29.

Night.

Li Yi once again rode the golden eagle to the sky above the army of the Great Shang.

This time, Li Yi brought eight top golden eagles.

Because of the collapse of the Divine Horse Camp and the time to make time, in addition, the number of golden eagles increased, during this time, Li Yi also asked several golden eagles to deliberately search for some other golden eagles around, and they had already harvested eight again, however, because of the limited power of faith, Li Yi only upgraded two top golden eagles.

For the other six, Li Yi just upgraded them to the intermediate level and raised them in Manniu City, without officially using them.

During this time, his power of faith was consumed extremely much, and many times it remained below three thousand points, and even fell to about one thousand points several times, and he had to maintain the power of faith at a high number, otherwise, it would not be enough to deal with all kinds of accidents.

For ordinary forces, ordinary armies, fighting a war is fighting for money.

For Li Yi, fighting a war is fighting the power of faith.

After upgrading the two top-level golden eagles, Li Yi's faith power was only about two thousand points left.

Eight top-level golden eagles were dispatched together, and this time, Li Yi could carry more fire oil packages.

In fact, Li Yi can also upgrade a few high-grade golden eagles, so that he can carry more fire oil packages.

However, the high-level golden eagle, all aspects of speed, sensitivity, wisdom is not as good as the top golden eagle, and the top golden eagle is not easy to cooperate, put fire oil wrapped to the enemy's grain and grass storage place, this is a relatively delicate work, in the sky, only Li Yi alone, at the same time command too many golden eagles of different grades to do this kind of fine work, very troublesome.

Li Yi thought about it and gave up.

Thinking about it, in the future, I still have to train some subordinates to cooperate well with the golden eagle, this kind of thing, can't always be done by him.

Call! Call! Call!

One by one, packages of fire oil fell into the army, and in a moment, pieces of fire ignited.

Although, on this night, the army of the Great Shang and the guards guarding the grain and grass were more severe, but Li Yi deliberately picked the grain and grass that was easier to burn and burned.

"Firefighting...... Fight the fire......"

Below, the exclamations of soldiers rang out.

"It's the enemy's golden eagle! Someone really rode a golden eagle and set it on fire! ”

"Shoot them with arrows!"

"It's too high to shoot...... The top marksman couldn't shoot ...... either"

Some looked at the sky and wondered.

This night, many people paid special attention to the sky, and actually saw that there were eagles and people in the sky.

Under the moon, eight golden eagles hovered in the sky, and one person flew together below.

Like a god at night looking down on a mortal on the ground, the eight golden eagles are the protectors.

In the army, Zhao Qian's face was ugly.

really made Zhang Haoran right.

The enemy really set fire on a golden eagle.

It made him feel incredible, he had read countless books of war and had never heard of anything like this.

However, the facts are in front of him, but he cannot be disbelieved.

At dawn.

The Great Shang expeditionary army counted the losses.

Because of this night, all kinds of grain and grass were scattered, plus a lot of fireproof cloth was covered, and many night watch soldiers stored a lot of water to prepare, but only a tenth of the loss appeared.

However, Zhao Qian's mood was still very heavy.

Compared with the army of more than 100,000 people, even one-tenth of the grain and grass is not a small number.

This is the depths of Baiyue, and when they want to conquer the Quartet to replenish grain and grass, they must have enough Baiyue tribes for them to conquer.

The Great Shang conquest army marched forward, and the Baiyue tribes in all directions retreated, and this method was difficult to work.

For the time being, there is only one way to make up for it from the back.

However, it is also this point that makes Zhao Qian's mood the heaviest.

This method of the enemy is too weird.

You can use this means to deal with them, and naturally you can use this means to deal with the rear grain transportation team, they are all difficult to resist, can the rear grain transportation team resist?

In addition, the damage to morale is also great!

For two days in a row, the grain and grass were successfully set on fire by the enemy, and the morale of the entire expeditionary army dropped a lot!

Even, there are faint rumors that their army entered Baiyue and angered the god of the grassland, so they were set on fire by the golden eagle in the air, and if they didn't retreat, they might be starved to death on the grassland!

Killed many people in a row to stop the rumors!

However, when the rumors stopped, they couldn't stop people's hearts!

What Zhao Qian didn't know was.

A grain convoy five hundred miles behind them.

On the same night that their grain and grass were burned for the second time, a fire was also kindled.

It's just that the other party's messengers and communication birds were all hunted by Li Yi's men and golden eagles, and there has been no news.

On this day, Zhao Qian gritted his teeth and let the army continue to move forward.

As long as you take the Bull City, there is still room for maneuver.

November 30.

Night.

Li Yi came again on eight golden eagles.

This time, the loss of grain and grass of the big merchants was even smaller, not even one-twentieth of the loss.

Although the morale of the entire army declined again, Zhao Qian was full of confidence, believing that the enemy's methods could no longer threaten them, and when their hundreds of thousands of troops arrived in Manniu City, it would be when the other party would die without a place to be buried, and when he would make meritorious contributions.

But I don't know.

Just a few thousand miles away, a fire broke out in the night in the second food convoy.

This time, Li Yi thought about it and did not hunt the other party's messengers and communication birds again.

In two days, the army of the Great Shang Expedition was only more than 400 miles away from the Bull City, and it only took three days to arrive.

The vanguard army, about 10,000 elite soldiers of the Zhenxi Army, is only about 300 miles away from Manniucheng, and it only takes a day or two to arrive.

For a short time, Li Yi didn't want to go head-to-head with so many troops.

Let the other person mess up with themselves first.

In fact, the attack on the other party's grain transport team could not be concealed for long.

After all, the grain transport team, which is very important for an expeditionary army, keeps in touch almost every day, and if you can't get in touch for a day, it means that the other party may have an accident.

Really.

In the morning.

Zhao Qian's face was once again gloomy and terrifying.

He had received the information that the second grain convoy had been attacked by enemy fire at night.

Nearly half of the grain and grass were lost.

The first grain transport team, which has been lost for more than a day, should have had an accident, and the loss may be even greater.

If this continues, the risk of them continuing to march will be even greater.

"Let's go!"

Zhao Qian gritted his teeth and said again.

"Heh......"

Seeing that the other party was still determined to let the army move forward, Li Yi sneered.

Since, the enemy does not want to go, then do not go.

The first day of December.

Night.

An earth-shattering thunderous sound resounded in the army of the Great Shang Expedition.

On this night, the army of the Great Merchants was directly killed by the "thunder and lightning", and within a moment, the entire army had a collective camp incident.

Dynamite!

Appearing for the first time on the battlefield of this world!

At dawn.

Zhao Qian's face turned pale.

One night.

The army suffered more than 15,000 casualties, and thousands of soldiers fled from the camp and did not return.

Combined, more than 20,000 soldiers were lost.

Grain and grass, again lost in half.

The whole army was in a state of panic.

The rumors can no longer be stopped.

said that they entered Baiyue and angered the gods of Baiyue.

The golden eagle fire attack at night and the thunder attack on the camp are all punishments for the Dashang soldiers by the Baiyue gods.

"General, according to the investigation, the weapon used by the enemy to attack the camp yesterday should be gunpowder ......"

One of his men walked into the tent and bowed his hand.

"Gunpowder...... Is gunpowder so powerful? ”

Zhao Qian said bitterly.

At this moment, he regretted it.

I regret not listening to Zhang Haoran's words.

Otherwise, there would not have been so many soldiers.

He was scared.

There is fire in the sky, and when there are not many of them, you can still take precautions.

Who can resist the "thunder" in the sky?

In one day, there is such a loss!

The enemy will come like this for a few more days, and before they can attack the Brute Bull City, their army will collapse first!

"Spread the word to General Zhang of the Shenju Battalion...... Tell them, let's retreat! ”

Taking a deep breath, Zhao Qian waved his hand, unable to speak.

Previously, he also laughed at Zhang Haoran, a thousand Shenju camp soldiers, only one hundred left, this war is over, if you can still stay in the Shenju camp, it will be a great gift from God.

Right now...... His guilt is probably no less than Zhang Haoran's.

In just one night, more than 20,000 troops were lost!

In particular, under the persuasion of Zhang Haoran several times, he refused to withdraw from the army...... He didn't learn the lesson of such a big loss to the Shenju Battalion, strictly speaking, his guilt was even greater!

However, he didn't dare not retreat.

If he doesn't retreat, his own life will be left in the grassland.

It may also affect the family behind him.

He knows very well how arrogant his heart is and what a grand plan he has in his heart.

For more than ten years, the Great Shang army has conquered all directions, and there have been very few defeats, and even more great defeats have not been ...... If he handed over all the hundreds of thousands of troops to Baiyue, he could imagine that the saint would probably have his heart alive today.

Coming majestically, he went back with a disgraced face......

The morale of the Great Shang Expedition Army has dropped to the extreme, and rumors are spreading in the army, so that Zhao Qian doesn't know who to kill, and he can only pretend not to know.

Now, he only hopes that he can bring the army back to the territory of Dashang as soon as possible.
