Chapter 308: Draw
The two sides fought back and forth for more than fifty rounds, and Chu Jie was accidentally hit on the horse's back by a mace, and he sat down on the war horse and fell to the ground. Chu Jie couldn't dodge, one leg was pressed under the horse, only to hear a creak, the bone was crushed, and he screamed in pain. The Wuhuan general took the opportunity to kill Chu Jie, but Guancheng resisted left and right but gradually became overwhelmed, and Chu Jie was finally smashed in the head by a hammer from the Wuhuan people.
Brains, blood, brains flew to the ground.
Guan Cheng was very angry, and his strength increased by three percent, but he had no choice but to break the opponent's heavy armor after all, Zhang Xiaowu hurriedly called Jin to withdraw his troops, and Guan Cheng had to retreat. The second general of Wuhuan was wearing heavy armor, and he couldn't catch up, so he could only look at the opponent and flee back, and they deliberately laughed and insulted the Han army.
Seeing this, Zhang Xiaowu sent someone to bring Chu Jie's body back, and after the three wars, Wuhuan lost two people, and the Han army also lost a fierce general, and now the two sides have drawn in the future.
Hu Li shouted: "This group of people are wearing the eight shells of the king to fight, right? ”
Wang Yijin also said: "It's not fair, it's not fair. ”
"Where will there be fairness in war, do you think chess is played?" Hu Li teased.
"This is probably Wuhuan Xuantie Armor." After Ruan Qingwen carefully identified it, he said helplessly, "The Wuhuan people only have thirteen pairs of Xuantie armor, I didn't expect to see two at a time today, Chu Jie ...... him."
Zhang Xiaowu sighed, looked at Guan Cheng, who was holding the headless corpse and crying bitterly, and ordered left and right: "Bury Captain Chu." ”
"Whoa."
Zhang Xiaowu looked at everyone and said in a deep voice: "This battle must be won, and I will go out next." The generals hurriedly stayed, Zhang Xiaowu patted the saddle and said: "I have made up my mind, I will come to the next battle." ”
Wuhuan won this battle, the natural army was inspired, the horn horn sounded, and the Wuhuan sergeants shouted all kinds of strange tones to celebrate. The two Wuhuan generals who won were also touted by everyone, and even the Wuhuan king Wuri Ralai greeted him personally, but the two generals didn't seem to appreciate it, and made a chest salute and stepped aside, and Wuri Ralai was very embarrassed.
In fact, due to the insistence on going south, so that the military was in turmoil, not all Wuhuan people were willing to continue the war, and the Wenchen mainly in Urkanha strongly opposed the southward movement, because Urkanha was a rare scholar in Wuhuan and was supported by the generals.
Urkanha believed that the strategic goal of Wuhuan attacking the Han army and occupying the Yajin granary had already been achieved, and there was no need to make a big move to the south. In particular, Mucheng is close to the two wolf passes and far away from the Yajin granary, even if it is occupied, it is difficult to hold, the Han army from the two wolf passes to arrive in Mucheng, the foot soldiers only need to walk for two days and one night, the cavalry only need one day, and from the Yajin granary to the wooden city, the foot soldiers have to walk for at least ten days, and the cavalry also needs to walk for seven days, and the Wuhuan army has no need and urgency to occupy it at all.
However, Wuri Ralai was carried away by the victory, and he ordered a fierce attack on Jincheng against public opinion, conquering Jincheng in one fell swoop, and winning the support of the generals, how could he not take the opportunity to expand his influence in the army. In his opinion, it is necessary to expand military power and influence, inherit the position of Khan in the future, and force his brother to pass on the position of Khan to himself, instead of his son Wu Li.
In the view of Uri Ralai, the significance of occupying the wooden city is far greater than the actual benefits, once the wooden city is conquered, it means that the entire Saibei wasteland is annexed by the Wuhuan, and the territory of the Wuhuan Empire is expanded by half. The Wuhuan Empire has developed from a small tribe on the banks of the Don River a thousand years ago to the present day, and the Wuhuan family has expanded its territory to the present level in fifty generations, and it only took him three years to expand half of the territory of the original empire, how can this glory be abandoned?
The two Xuanjia generals, named Sardin and Sasu, were twin brothers, and they trusted the scholar Urkanha very much, and after listening to Urkanha's analysis of the pros and cons of the war, they resolutely decided to support the decision not to go south. But the military orders are like a mountain, even if they don't support attacking this worthless wooden city in their hearts, they must obey the orders of the Wuhuan king, so that they are neither yin nor yang nor lukewarm to the Wuhuan king, which makes Wuri Ralai embarrassed.
Urkanha's deterrence did not work, but the exhortation of the plague did, and now one-fifth of the 100,000 soldiers of the 100,000 southward marching army were also affected by the plague and were incapacitated. Urkanha attaches great importance to the plague, but Uzhralai does not care, declaring: "No one knows the plague better than I do, it is just a small chill, the past is gone, there is no need to care, after September the plague will magically disappear of its own accord." ”
However, after September, the plague in the Wuhuan array did not disappear, but intensified, from the initial dozen people to more than 20,000 people, and the morale of the army was seriously damaged.
"No one knows the plague better than I do." Urkanha sneered and repeated the absurd words of Uzhrarai, looked at the Wuhuan soldiers who were suffering from the plague with pity, and said sadly in his heart: "It is time for you to rest for your own political purposes, regardless of the life or death of your countrymen. ”
Perhaps it was the team battle that gave the Wuhuan people hope, and the Uri Ralai immediately ordered his subordinates to dispatch the remaining three generals together, and if they won, they will win a big victory, and if they fail, it will be a big deal to give them 10,000 prisoners of war who have contracted the plague.
In fact, Uri Ralai regretted it a long time ago, and after passing the ruins of Roland, he regretted it, not because he was tired of the expedition, but because he ignored the severity of the plague. The mouth of the mouth was called a small wind and cold plague, after the body first cough, fever, runny nose, followed by stuffiness, weakness, headache, and more serious is the loss of smell and taste, the body is tired, there are stars in front of the eyes from time to time, and in the later stage, people begin to vomit blood, hesitate, chills, often die overnight.
But the most terrible thing is that the people who have this plague are always conscious, and from the onset of illness to death, the patient always clearly understands the whole process of his illness until death. This plague makes people coldly feel the whole process of a person from illness to death, and how cruel it is to see themselves from birth to death.
Although he regretted it in his heart, he still pretended to be very calm on the surface, and often said to his subordinates: "The plague is a disease that only yellow-skinned people can have, and our skin is white, so we will not get this disease." It's a conspiracy, a conspiracy against us, and we're going to destroy them. ”
However, more and more people questioned him and opposed him, so that now Uzhralai looks a little crazy, everyone just obeys the laws of the empire and obeys his orders, but in his heart, many people despise his madness and arrogance. Uri Ralai is no longer the Imperial Crocodile who immediately conquered the Southern Continent with a sword ten years ago, and now he just looks extremely vicious.
At this time, the young general Wuhuan came to pass the word again, and said: "Now that the two sides are drawn, isn't it boring, why don't we come out with three generals next, you will have three generals, three generals and three generals will fight, and win the final victory, how about it?" ”
Seeing that the two sides were tied, Zhang Xiaowu knew that this battle would be won, and sneered: "That's what I mean." He turned to look at the generals and said, "Can anyone go with me?" ”
