Volume 4: Fighting for You 15. Chance to Win
Seven rounds, the archers have already cast seven rounds of bows, and finally the cavalry charge on the opposite side finally stopped, and Meng He's heart calmed down a little, there are really too many enemies! Similarly, Lin Tiehu's hand holding the iron rod also relaxed slightly, in the face of so many enemies, 10,000 rattan armor soldiers, I am afraid that even a wave will not be able to lift, and it will be swallowed by the cavalry tide, and now the cavalry has stopped, but the sense of oppression is still there.
Don't talk about them, even Chen He is trembling at the moment, not because he is afraid, but because of this kind of scene, compared to the scene he has encountered before, it is not a star and a half, and there is no boundary when people pass 10,000, so what is the concept of this 1.8 million at this moment, Chen He just feels that once they collide, they will disappear in an instant.
"Lord, let General Lin withdraw, while the enemy is still hesitating!" Meng He also noticed Chen He's trembling at the moment, but he also saw the composure in Chen He's eyes, and his heart moved slightly, such a big scene is indeed not so easy to see, and the trembling of the Lord should be because it is the first time to encounter such a big scene.
"Chu Xia, 1.8 million cavalry, if it is on the plain, how many soldiers will it take to be able to stop them?" Chen He asked, looking at the boundless cavalry army.
"Lord, the 1.8 million army can't be spread, and if you attack, it's even more impossible, this time it's also because the Lord you took the initiative as bait, otherwise, it would already be a great threat if there were 100,000 troops coming out to pursue them!" Meng He said with a wry smile.
"Someone, send an order to General Lin, let him withdraw first!" Chen He was also a little helpless, and immediately ordered, now is not the time to think about these, although this is just a simulation of the assessment, but Chen He does not want to lose, even in the face of 1.8 million Feiyun cavalry, he currently has at least one geographical advantage, and archers, not necessarily lost.
As Lin Tiehu's army retreated, the cavalry was ready to move again, at this time, Meng He did not hesitate to order the archers to show a bow and arrow array of 70,000 people, and the dense arrows fell on the death zone like dark clouds, which instantly stopped the cavalry on the opposite side, and before they came up with a countermeasure, the distance of two hundred meters was an insurmountable gap for them.
After the vine armor soldiers withdrew from the front line, Meng He began to order the archers to retreat alternately, fortunately, the archers trained by Chen He had a selection to select marksmen, so one of the training subjects of the archers was how to march on the high mountains, so the retreat was also chaotic, and everyone seemed to be able to find the most labor-saving way to retreat.
Soon, this encounter ended, with the loss of more than 30,000 cavalry of Feiyun cavalry and the withdrawal of Chen He's 420,000 troops into the mountain, which lasted for about three hours.
On the other side, Xun Yong quietly waited for the task to end, but a few hours passed, and his mission had not failed, which made Xun Yong realize that something was wrong, pondered carefully, and slapped himself hard, because he regretted it, the little warrior said that he wanted to introduce his situation to him, but what did he say, no need, just let the little warrior do his part.
If it is said, if there is no flaw in this task, then the biggest flaw is the little squire, he is not normal, 1.8 million cavalry, which means that the little squire himself has 420,000 soldiers, 420,000, when he thinks of this number, Xun Yong can't help but slap himself again, this idea is too crazy.
"Someone's coming!" Although Xun Yong was surprised by his thoughts, but he needed to verify it, so he directly called the generals under his command, and ordered him to send scouts to reconnoiter the surroundings, according to the mission introduction, that little warrior should be on the central mountain at the moment, if he really has more than 400,000 troops, even if he is surrounded and suppressed, there is still a great possibility to escape into the mountains.
On this side, Xun Yong finally had a reaction, and on the other side, Chen He also found a place to camp, which was a mortal enemy that resembled the gourd valley, the only advantage was that it covered an extremely wide area, and his 400,000 army was thrown into it, and there was still a lot of open space.
If it is a normal battle, entering here is equivalent to a dead end, but this is the God of War Realm, and Chen He has a war spirit, so the logistics supply does not matter at all.
After choosing a place to defend, Chen He immediately asked the soldiers to cut down wood and began to make horse rejection piles, and at the same time ordered the soldiers to dig countless horse traps, the so-called horse traps are smaller than fists, such pits, even people are extremely difficult to walk, if it is a cavalry raid, it can be said that as long as they come, it is a trap and a quasi.
Because Meng He commanded the archers to deter outside, the cavalry had no way to get close, so they could only look at the defense that took less than half a day to build up by the more than 300,000 troops.
The mouth of the gourd is not large, and if the soldiers are lined up side by side, about 3,000 people can be connected, plus the defense, so that the problem of survival is solved, and the next thing that needs to be solved is how to eat the 1.8 million cavalry.
"Lord, now why are we defending according to danger, the enemy only has cavalry, and it is not so easy to capture here, but it is also difficult to defeat the enemy!" After Meng He withdrew his archers, he was called away by Chen He, along with a group of generals who studied the opportunity for victory.
"Lord, my subordinates feel that the biggest disadvantage of the cavalry is that they can't attack the city, why can they completely consume it with them, an army of 1.8 million, people eat horses and chew, and the cost is much more than them!" Huo Miao also opened his mouth and said, facing the cavalry, this is the first time, so Huo Miao has no good way, the only thing he can think of is a war of attrition.
"Lord, the cavalry has another shortcoming, after dismounting, their combat power is reduced by at least seventy percent, and the cavalry needs a group charge to be able to show the most powerful side, if our army is only at night, sneak attack the enemy camp, ninety percent chance to be able to hit the enemy hard!" This time it was Delong who spoke, as a cavalry general, although Chen He did not have cavalry, and he himself would not train cavalry, but no one under Chen He could better understand the cavalry.
Therefore, when Delong spoke, everyone looked at him, because Delong has never spoken much, so as soon as he opened his mouth, he attracted everyone's attention. And Huo Miao even opened his mouth and said: "I almost forgot, Delong is a cavalry expert, why should we listen to Delong's advice!" ”
"Well, that's right, there is no cavalry under the general's command now, which is really wronged Delong, but when they have cavalry, Delong will definitely be a general in charge!" Chen He also nodded and took the lead and said, Chen He has not changed the importance of Delong.
"Lord, this is my shallow opinion, and the most important thing is to look at the advice of the military advisor and several generals!" Delong was praised by Chen He and Huo Miao, and he was also a little embarrassed.
"Well, Hatsuxia, what do you think of General Delong's suggestion?" Chen He asked
"General Ren, have you found out the location of the enemy's camp?" Meng He did not answer Chen He's question, but turned to Ren Hang, who was in charge of intelligence.
"I've found out, a detailed map of camping, here!" As he spoke, Ren Hang took out a map and collapsed in front of Chen He.
Immediately, Chen He, Meng He and Huo Miao, the three of them looked at the map drawn by the scout at the same time, and after a while, Meng He said with a smile on the corner of his mouth: "Lord, General Delong is definitely a great talent of cavalry, and our army will win this battle!" ”
"Oh, Chu Xia, tell me, how to win?" Chen He suddenly came to the spirit, an army of 1.8 million, not 18,000, but even 18.
"Lord, please see, in order to facilitate the management of horses, the cavalry will centralize the management of horses, here, here, and here, and here, more than seventy percent of the horses have been hoarded in three places, if today let General Yan, General Mo and General Lin, each with 50,000 troops, raid these three horse farms, burn them, and lose their mounts, can they still be called cavalry?" Meng He said, pointing to three places on the map.
"Lord, you can also order the rest of the generals to raid these camps on the outskirts of us overnight, and the cavalry without horses is like a lamb waiting to be slaughtered, and this night may be able to bring real heavy damage to the enemy!" Huo Miao also spoke, and at the same time, his hand swiped through the three camps, all of which were the closest places to Hulukou, and they were also the places that the army needed to pass through to raid the horse farm.
Meng He also nodded, if these three places were taken, then the straight-line distance of the army's raid on the horse farm would be shortened by at least one-third.
Seeing that the two of them had reached an agreement, Chen He pondered for a moment and said: "According to the scout's drawing, the enemy's main general camp is here, why don't we let Wushuang take the vine armor soldiers and two-handed swordsmen and directly take their big tents, maybe they will win this battle!" ”
Huo Miao and Meng He pondered, after all, this is very dangerous, although it is said that the benefits are greater, but the two of them did not speak, but Yan Wushuang over there said directly: "Lord, your subordinates will definitely not let you down, and tonight will definitely fight to flatten the enemy's tent!" ”
Long drive straight into something, has always been Yan Wushuang's favorite, although he has always boasted of both civil and military skills, but still can't change a problem, that is, indomitable fighting, it was because of this that he was hit hard by Chen He, and then surrendered, now it's better, at least he won't make a move to leave the army easily, as long as he is assisted by the army, Yan Wushuang feels that he is invincible.
Yan Wushuang took the initiative to ask for battle, Mu Yong couldn't help frowning, because this battle was indeed dangerous, according to the scout's report, there were 300,000 soldiers in the enemy's camp, even if there were no horses, but 300,000 troops were not a small number, which was also the reason why Huo Miao and Chu Xia hesitated.
"Lord, there are only vine armor soldiers and two-handed swordsmen battalions, but there are only more than 20,000 people, and in the face of 300,000 troops, it is still a bit risky!" Mu Yong didn't want Yan Wushuang to take risks at will, especially as long as he completed the strategy formulated by Huo Miao and Meng He, there would only be victory left in this battle, and he couldn't take more risks.
Chen He was a little embarrassed, because after he spoke just now, he also regretted it a little, this inexplicable test dragged him into the consumption of time, and Chen He didn't explain it to anyone when he came out, worried that others would think about it, so he desperately wanted to end this battle, plus this is the assessment space, even if he fails, there is no loss to him, so he has that kind of risky thought.
