Chapter 873: The Beginning of the Edge

Hum. ”

Yuan Shu snorted arrogantly, ignoring Guo Jia's flattery.

"There are not many cards in the judge's hand, and if he doesn't make a killing move, he won't have a chance." Sun Jian looked at the various legions that were blooming everywhere, and then looked at the direction of the trial and said lightly.

This battle has been fought so far, and it is almost at the critical point of a showdown, and the two sides are about to have a showdown. Although he suffered a small loss, the initiative was still in his hands, and there were countless killer moves hidden, Sun Jian could stand here extremely calmly and wait for the trial to make a move.

"Zheng Zhengnan is a good opponent, but Yuan Shao is too far behind us." Tian Feng said: "The strength of the two sides is so disparity, there is no suspense in this battle from beginning to end. ”

"Don't be careless, the trapped beast is still fighting. Zhenzhengnan has a strong temperament, and he will not admit defeat until the last moment. Jia Xu said.

"It's all fought to this extent, even Zhang He's halberd warriors have been forced out, what else is there to hesitate about? How good is it to directly let the Xiliang Iron Cavalry and the Bingzhou Wolf Cavalry aim at a point, and take it away directly with a wave of charges? Zu Mao said with a big grin.

Sun Jian glanced at Zu Mao: "Da Rong, you don't listen to the military books that you ask you to read more on weekdays, so don't talk too much at this time." What Zhengnan hopes most now is probably that we send cavalry to the camp. ”

"What? What other means can he have to stop the cavalry of our army? ”

"If not, how can he be qualified to be my opponent?" Sun Jian said.

"How can a person who can give full play to his only advantages not make a few arrangements for the advantages of his opponent? Although Meng Hu's elephant soldiers had previously dispersed the opponent's chariot formation, after all, the number was too small, and they were quickly forced down, the number of chariots destroyed was only 12/10, and the number of chariots on the battlefield was still very large, and it was impossible for Zhengnan to ignore this part of the force. ”

"He didn't dare to use it." Xun Yu said quietly: "Our army has so many elite regiments attacking from all sides, no matter how strong the Zhao army's military formation is, no matter how many soldiers there are, it is impossible to hold them all." There will definitely be a few breakthroughs, and then the trial will need these new forces to fill the loopholes and stabilize the position. ”

"A wooden barrel, if it misses one or two holes, it can be filled, but if there are holes everywhere, there is no possibility for this barrel to be filled, and there is no need to fill it." Yuan Shu shook his head slightly, his eyes were full of confidence and disdain, as well as a hint of pity.

No one knew better than him how powerful these nearly twenty legions were, and how powerful these generals were.

"Your Majesty advocates elite soldiers, and the 400,000 troops present are all elite divisions, and the most inferior army is enough to be in the first class. It is not difficult to deal with these uneven miscellaneous soldiers of the Zhao army, and it is not difficult to defeat three enemies with one. Sun Jian said.

"Anything has a value, including the lives of these soldiers. Under the platform I have built, it is a pity that a young man can create at least hundreds of thousands of dollars in his life, and it is a pity to die on the battlefield like this. Yuan Shu said.

"Your Majesty, you are probably the most brilliant businessman in the world." When Guo Jia heard this, he sighed sincerely: "Businessmen seek wealth, Your Majesty, you seek the whole world." ”

"I love to hear that. Everything in the world is negotiable. Spending more money, food and energy on these soldiers, and taking the road of elite soldiers, seems to be more than worth the loss. In fact, the value that can be created by the liberated vacant population is no less than that. I am not blindly pursuing elite soldiers, but I have grasped a balance between quantity and quality. Yuan Shu bowed his head slightly and said with a smile.

"With the smallest price in exchange for the greatest value, with the immediate small profits in exchange for long-term interests, with the cake that you can't eat in exchange for more benefits, Your Majesty's attainments in the way of trade-offs are indeed unparalleled." Tian Feng, who has always been upright, even said a rare word of praise.

Hearing Tian Feng's words of praise, Yuan Shu instantly ate watermelon on a dog day, and he was refreshed in his heart.

"It's really rare, Yuan Hao, you can still say such things." Guo Jia raised his eyebrows and said.

Tian Feng snorted coldly and didn't say anything.

......

Between the words of a few people, the situation on the battlefield has changed dramatically. The many legions besieging on all sides gradually showed their formidable strength, and several legions in particular were the most terrifying.

The legions of Yan Yan and Pang De cooperated with each other.

The loose formation of the Zhao army and the soldiers with low combat power made Yan Yan almost effortlessly enter it. Later, Sergeant Zhao repeated his old tricks, and after letting him enter, the resistance gradually intensified, and he continuously attacked Yan Yan's army from three sides.

However, Yan Yanjun did not advance as steadily as they thought.

After most of the soldiers entered, Yan Yan gave a dumbfounded order.

"Spread out, fight for each other, kill!"

Yan Yanjun's soldiers seemed to have been prepared, and they scattered without hesitation when they heard the order, and they fought in groups of three or five into the surrounding Zhao army, fighting separately.

The talent of the legion unfolded, and each soldier of Yan Yanjun, who was caught in the melee, had a kind of telepathic and silent tacit understanding with his comrades who were a few feet nearby. On the chaotic battlefield, the cooperation between them is more tacit. Several neighboring soldiers seemed to share the same brain, cooperating with each other to defend and kill the enemy, and three or five people cooperated with each other to burst out several times the combat power.

After the entire army was dispersed, its combat power increased instead of decreasing, and although the speed of casualties increased by several percent, the speed of killing enemies increased by two or three times. The 10,000-strong army actually showed the lethality of the 50,000-strong army in the melee.

And Pang Dejun, who was behind Yan Yanjun, also began to show his unique strength at this time.

Under the shroud of the legion's talent, the three thousand specially trained crossbowmen in the Pang De army all felt the figure of the enemy in the distance flicker, and a little phantom appeared in front of them.

"Free fire, first wave test firing." Pound also gave a surprising order.

The Zhao army in front was engaged in a melee with Yan Yanjun, entangled with each other, and it was difficult to distinguish friend from foe. In such a chaotic situation, it is difficult to know whether the arrows fired by the crossbowmen hit friend or foe. Pound disregarded the safety of Yan Yanjun's army and ordered his crossbowmen to attack.

"Whoosh! Sou! Sou! ”

The first wave of arrows was fired, and countless arrows flew wildly on the battlefield, and from time to time blood splashed with it.

The deaf and clear-sighted Pound looked at the location of the arrow, and his eyes flashed.

"Three thousand arrows, about seventy or eighty percent empty, shot more than 100 people, and seriously injured many people. The most important thing is that he basically did not hurt his own soldiers. ”

Although he is extremely confident in his legion's talents, the requirements for crossbowmen are still very high when it comes to using crossbows. The 3,000 crossbowmen under his command have all undergone his special training to adapt and match his legionary talents, and to be able to kill and wound enemies in such chaotic battles without injuring their teammates.

After seeing the performance of his crossbowmen, Pound completely relieved, picked up the treasure eagle bow on his back, and shot one of the active centurions of the enemy army with an arrow.

Putting down the treasure eagle bow, amid the applause of his own soldiers, Pound shouted: "All crossbowmen, shoot freely, don't stop if you don't shoot arrows into the air." Tower shield soldiers, pikemen guarded, sword and shield soldiers rushed forward in formation. Cooperate with General Yan to destroy these Zhao troops. ”
