Chapter 997: Enemy counterattack
Murong Xue personally met with the envoy of the Cold Moon Country, asked the envoy to go back, and asked the king of the Cold Moon Country to hand over the people first, and she sent someone back to inform the emperor and ask for the emperor's opinion.
After the envoy left, Murong Xue asked Han Xuening, Mr. Wen, and Zhou Tong to discuss the matter of Hanyue Kingdom's desire for peace.
Han Xuening thought that it was a good thing to sue for peace, and wanted them to hand over the people, and if Wei Yunxuan agreed, a war would be avoided. In this way, a large number of people will not be left homeless.
Three days later, the Cold Moon Kingdom really escorted the king of Persia and others over and handed them over to the army of the Great Wei State. and asked the Great Wei State to withdraw its troops as soon as possible, and Murong Xue said that when the emperor of the Great Wei State issued a holy decree, he would withdraw his troops.
Murong Xue sent Wutong with a few generals and 10,000 soldiers to escort these Persian captives to the city of Great Wei and handed them over to the emperor to deal with in person.
On the other side, they were stationed in the two occupied cities, waiting for news from the Great Wei State.
In the main city of the Cold Moon Kingdom, the prime minister reported to the king that the elephant army had been mobilized, and there were more than 100 hunters who domesticated elephants, and all the elephants added up to more than 5,000.
The king was very happy, and in the past few days, the army and wolves of the Great Wei State did not attack the rest of their Persian kingdom after they returned the king and ministers who had absconded from the Persian state.
The prime minister said: "Great King, the army of the Great Wei State has captured our two cities in a row, and they are all sneak attacks in the middle of the night. This time, they thought we were really asking for peace, and we had a sneak attack. Now that the elephant army has gathered, the bear army will soon be gathered, and when the time comes, there will be no less than 5,000 huge bears, all of which are under the command of trainers, and we will also kill them by surprise. ”
The king thought for a moment and asked, "Are we sure we can defeat them?" Those wolves are absolutely powerful, and there is a master who commands the wolves. Our elephant army has only just become an army, I wonder if we can defeat their wolf pack? ”
"You don't have to worry, King. You think, no matter how big their wolf pack is, it's only 300 pounds. Our elephants weigh more than their twenty wolves. We have more than 5,000 elephants, and even if they come with 10,000 wolves, they are no match for elephants. The prime minister thought for a moment and said, "Besides, if we win a big win this time, we can not only beat the army of the Great Wei Kingdom out of the Cold Moon Kingdom, but also continue to advance into the territory of the Persian State." After recovering the land of Persia occupied by the Great Wei State, after that, such a large piece of land in Persia will belong to our Cold Moon Kingdom. After the national strength goes up, we can also invade the Great Wei State in turn, and let them taste the taste of being attacked. ”
The king thought about the beautiful scenery of the future sketched by the prime minister, and indeed as the prime minister said, if he won the war, he would be able to occupy the cities of the Great Wei State at that time, and the Great Wei State was in the east, and the beauties were like clouds.
Oriental beauty, he, the king, has seen it a few times before, and she is indeed charming and sexy.
"Good! The prime minister is fully responsible, pick a time, and let's have a sneak attack. ”
"Yes, my lord!"
Two days after the final decision, the elephant army of the Cold Moon Kingdom launched a sneak attack on a city occupied by the Great Wei State. Strive to drive the army of the Great Wei State out of the city in one fell swoop.
In the middle of the night on the third day, the Cold Moon Kingdom gathered a large number of troops, and the elephant army played the vanguard, and the king gave an order, and the commander in charge of this sneak attack led a large number of troops to counterattack.
The army led by Murong Xue was stationed in the occupied city, they didn't expect that the army of the Cold Moon Country would come to attack at night, and they didn't expect that so many elephants would come this time.
When the elephant army approached the city, the soldiers on the city wall realized that the enemy army outside was coming to attack the city.
The commander of the soldiers immediately notified the commander of the city, and the commander hurriedly informed the commander that everyone had slept soundly, and Murong Xue immediately asked the soldiers to pull up the alarm and let the generals get up immediately to discuss the war.
In less than half an hour, the generals got up and gathered.
Murong Xue said to everyone: "There are a lot of elephants suddenly outside the city, I don't know what's going on?" According to the soldiers defending the city, it seems that there are troops behind, let the elephants attack the city first. ”
Han Xuening felt very strange, "Didn't the Cold Moon Kingdom sue for peace?" How did so many elephants suddenly appear outside the city? Could it be that they are sham sums? ”
Everyone is in a meeting, what to do.
Outside, a general came to report that a large number of elephants had begun to attack the city. Behind the elephants were a large number of Cold Moon Nation troops, and their archers were cooperating with the elephants to shoot at the soldiers on the city walls.
Murong Xue asked Zhou Tong to immediately mobilize a large number of wolves to fight the elephants, and in addition, the generals immediately gathered their subordinates and entered the battle preparations.
The generals left one after another to gather the soldiers.
Zhou Tong sent a signal for the wolves hiding in the surrounding valley to hurry up. In less than half an hour, a large number of wolves came over and fought with the elephants outside the city.
These elephants are behemoths, and the wolves are no match for elephants except for the wolf, which can match the elephants.
After a battle, more than half of the wolves were wounded, and the elephants had the upper hand.
Zhou Tong let the wounded wolves leave first, and the rest of the wolves continued to fight. With very few casualties, the elephants quickly and completely suppressed the wolves.
Although several wolves will not lose to elephants in a single fight, these elephants are numerous, and the head wolf is gradually no opponent.
After Zhou Tong saw this situation, he could only let the wolves retreat first.
He found Murong Xue and Han Xue Ning and said, "These elephants are huge behemoths, and my wolves are no match for them. It seems that this time we are going to withdraw our troops. Once the elephant enters the field, it will be destroyed by the city, and we can only withdraw from the city, and the people who command the elephants will not continue to destroy the city. ”
Murong Xue thought about it, and what Zhou Tong said was right.
While she asked her soldiers to guard the city gates, she began to slowly withdraw her troops from the east gate to reduce unnecessary casualties.
An hour later, the elephant army cooperated with the army of the Cold Moon Kingdom to break through the city gate, and the army of the Great Wei Kingdom suffered heavy casualties.
Murong Xue led tens of thousands of soldiers to retreat first, so as to avoid greater casualties.
After retreating, the Great Wei army could only retreat to the border cities and then discuss countermeasures and how to deal with these elephants.
A city was quickly recaptured by the soldiers of the Cold Moon Kingdom, and a large number of elephants were stationed outside the city, and the Lord would immediately inform the king of the good news of the recapture.
The king was very happy, and when he learned of the great victory of the elephant army, he immediately sent people to the city to reward the generals, as well as the trainers and hunters who commanded the generals.
His counteroffensive plan will be realized slowly, and on the other side, more than 6,000 bears have been gathered and ready to set off to join the battle.
The king called another general to lead the bear army to join the elephant army, and after a week of preparation, he would continue to attack the city where the border had been lost.
