Chapter 688: Capture the enemy general alive

The general who led his troops into battle saw that more than 500 people under his command were all wiped out, and knew that he had been ambushed.

However, it is impossible for him to retreat into the city now, otherwise he will not be able to explain to the commander of the defending army.

There were a large number of archers on the other side of the woods, and if he led his troops to attack again, he would probably suffer heavy casualties.

He had three hundred soldiers with shields in front of him, and the soldiers behind him following, so that they would not be wounded by arrows.

More than 300 shield soldiers, with long shields in their hands, rushed towards the woods, and hundreds of archers followed the shield army.

Behind him were the infantry with spears, and he himself commanded outside the city gates.

Mr. Wen also saw this situation, the dense shields rushed ahead, Bai Zijun's archer troops could not play a role, in case they were attacked by the enemy, the enemy archers would in turn restrain Bai Zijun's team, and their advantage would change.

At this time, Mr. Wen had to come up with a solution.

Han Xuening and Wei Yunxuan were also watching this duel with a huge disparity in strength, the trap they set up was not against the defenders of more than a thousand people, they had to pay more soldiers and horses to the city.

Therefore, none of these traps can be used, and only the remaining more than 1,000 enemy troops can be destroyed with the existing forces.

The shield army had quickly approached the side of the grove, and the arrows fired by Bai Zijun's archer troops were blocked by the shields, and the situation was urgent.

Han Xuening said to Wei Yunxuan and Mr. Wen: "It seems that the enemy army still has combat experience. Brother Zijun's archers are only two hundred and fifty in total, and this time the enemy's shield soldiers have nearly three hundred, and the shields of these three hundred people are in front, like a dense defensive wall, and Brother Zijun's archers can't play a role. I think that when the enemy army is within range of the grove, release the tree arrow trap in the grove. ”

The power and momentum of the tree arrow are very large, and they can directly shoot through the enemy's shield, and even if they do not shoot through the shield, they can rely on the strong momentum to punch the shield army through a hole.

In this way, the archers will be able to shoot arrows densely into the gaps that have been impacted. Disrupt the enemy's formation and have a chance to win the battle.

Wei Yunxuan thought for a moment and asked Mr. Wen, "Mr. Wen, if you release the mechanism in the woods, what are the chances of winning?" If you rely on archers alone, how sure are you of winning? ”

Mr. Wen said, "Lord Wang! As long as the enemy enters the range of the woods and touches the mechanism, the enemy will definitely not be able to resist it. After our army cooperates with the archers to shoot, we can kill it and completely annihilate the enemy. If you rely only on the archers, I am afraid that this battle will be lost. ”

"Then according to what Miss Xue Ning said, first destroy these attacking enemy forces."

After obtaining Wei Yunxuan's permission, Mr. Wen ordered to go down and let the more than 200 sailors on each side of the forest get ready, and when the enemy troops entered the forest area, they would immediately release the organs.

Bai Zijun's archers separated, and once the enemy army fell into the trap and suffered heavy casualties, the archers intercepted the way from the side.

Seeing that the archers of the opposing side were ineffective, the general commanding outside the city kept the army moving forward, and it was inevitable to destroy the bandits.

Bai Zijun's archer troops had already withdrawn from the woods and slowly retreated towards the outside of the woods, chasing the array of shield troops, archers, and spearmen who had caught up.

Soon, these thousand-degree troops had entered the woods, almost all of them in the woods.

Mr. Wen suddenly ordered the release of the agency.

Suddenly, dense tree arrows shot at the enemy formation in the middle of the road from the woods on both sides, and the enemy soldiers were dumbfounded.

Tree arrows of various sizes broke the shield army, disrupting the formation, and many soldiers fell from the arrows.

Some of the enemy troops who desperately escaped through the woods were attacked by Bai Zijun's army of archers, and almost all of them died.

Some of the soldiers who retreated and fled back were intercepted by the hundreds of forward troops led by Wu Tong's men, and the two armies fought hard.

In less than half an hour, the phalanx of more than 1,000 enemy troops was completely annihilated, and the general who took the lead saw that the situation was not good, and immediately turned around and returned to the city, and the back road was blocked by more than 100 archers led by Hanako.

Now, there are still more than 200 enemy troops left, and it is the so-called capture of the thief and capture the king first.

Hua Zijian took out a bow and arrow from behind him, and pulled the bow full and aimed it at the general on the white horse is an arrow, Wei Yunxuan explained that he would not kill the general.

The arrow shot by Hanako's sword passed through the general's armor, and the penetrating power of the arrow directly knocked the general on horseback off the horse.

Wu Tong rushed forward with a part of the navy army and captured the general alive.

The rest of the soldiers either surrendered or were shot.

Victory in the first battle! Everyone was very happy.

This battle wiped out the enemy's 2,000 troops, and Wei Yunxuan's naval army suffered more than 20 casualties.

The east gate of the city has been closed, and the defenders on the city wall have already gone to inform the commander of the city defenders when they saw that the old general was defeated and captured alive, and the 2,000 troops he led were all wiped out.

The old general of the enemy army was escorted back to the camp tent, and Wei Yunxuan, Mr. Wen, Han Xuening and others came to interrogate the prisoner.

When Wei Yunxuan and the others entered the camp, the old general immediately recognized the person.

"You're the Cloud King?"

Wei Yunxuan was surprised, "You know me?" ”

It turned out that this old general belonged to Liu Gongquan's disciple Hu Xun, the soldier of the military department, who surrendered to the enemy and captured the city of Great Wei.

He was sent to the Dongcheng Garrison Army as a general, before, he had seen Yun King Wei Yunxuan a few times, and he was very impressed by Yun King, so as soon as Wei Yunxuan came in just now, he recognized it.

"King Yun, I heard that you were killed before, why haven't you ...... Die? After revealing his identity, the old general asked curiously.

Wei Yunxuan thought for a moment and said, "At the beginning, for the safety of everyone in the Yunwang Mansion, I had to do this. Old general, you and I are both the people of the Great Wei State, and now, the Great Wei State has been invaded by the Persians, and the Great Wei City has been captured by the Persians, and I am going to lead the army of the Great Wei City to recapture the Great Wei City this time. Old general, you should know in your heart that in a year of frequent wars, I don't know how many people have been homeless. Therefore, driving out the Persians and unifying the Great Wei State can make the people live a good life. ”

Wei Yunxuan's expression was excited, and the old general also knew that what King Yun said was right.

"King Yun, now that the Great Wei Kingdom is divided, how easy it is to unify the Great Wei Kingdom!" He was also helpless in his heart.

At this time, Han Xuening said: "Old general, you are right, it is indeed difficult to unify the Great Wei Kingdom, but as long as we can all contribute." The reunification of the Great Wei State is just around the corner! You also want the people to live a stable and good life, right? ”

The old general did not reply, as if thinking of something.

Han Xuening continued: "Since the invasion of the Persian army, the countryside around Great Wei City has no one left with people, and it has become an empty village. I don't know how many people have died. Even Tujia Village, which was more than 200 miles away from Great Wei City, was destroyed because of the war. The once powerful Tujia Village is now full of starving and frozen bones on the roadside, and countless people are homeless and refugees. Only when the Great Wei State is unified can the people live a good life. ”
