Flames lit up half of the battlefield, and the hillside was littered with bones.

Wei Xiaokuan's troops and Wei Chi's troops attacked desperately for a day, breaking through the two lines of defense carefully arranged by Li Xinchen one after another, and finally almost pushed Cao Zhong and Dai Cai down the mountain directly. If it weren't for Li Xinchen and Xiao Shilian who led the reinforcements to arrive in time, I'm afraid that the flames of war would have burned to the side of the main peak by now.

The weary soldiers in the trenches slept soundly with their swords in their hands, and the generals who patrolled almost subconsciously slowed down, fearing that one of their actions would wake them up.

"General!" Dai Cai shook his head to dispel the sleepiness, and walked over quickly to meet Li Xinchen, a little surprised, "Why is the general here, this is the first line, it's too dangerous!" ”

While speaking, Dai Cai looked at Li Ping next to him, this guy is the captain of Li Xinchen's personal guard, how can he not have any sense of safety at all?

Li Ping was also very aggrieved, Li Xinchen's stubborn temper was something he could pull if he wanted to. To say that Xiao Shilian is not afraid of the earth, but he is still afraid of his wife, Li Xinchen is really bold, from the ghosts and gods of heaven and earth to Wei Chi Hui and Wei Xiaokuan under the mountain in front of him, he really hasn't seen Li Xinchen afraid of anything.

And the things he decided were hard to change.

Li Xinchen did not directly answer Dai Cai's question, but jumped directly into the trench. These trenches were actually things that Li Xinchen made up by copying the theoretical concepts of positional warfare in later generations. In today's actual battle, the performance is still good.

It was difficult for the arrows of the Northern Zhou Dynasty to directly and effectively kill the soldiers in the trenches, but the crossbowmen in the trenches could calmly wander away and snipe the Northern Zhou generals who led the team to charge. What's more, the trenches that extend in all directions and crisscross make the Northern Zhou soldiers who suddenly rushed up not know whether they should enter or not.

And the Southern Chen soldiers, who could rush out at any time, let many of them break through the obstruction of arrows and deer and rush to the front of the trench, and the Northern Zhou soldiers had no room to fight back in a hurry.

Of course, now that the war is over for the time being, this trench also gives the soldiers a natural opportunity to rest.

If there was no trench, this outnumbered battle would inevitably be more difficult, and the front-line generals such as Dai Cai and Cao Zhong knew this very well, so they were even more impressed by Li Xinchen's cultivation in defense.

It's just that they don't know that Li Xinchen actually just plagiarized the wisdom of countless military strategists for the next thousand years. But then again, this is also the only thing Li Xinchen can rely on when facing opponents such as Wei Chi Hui and Wei Xiaokuan.

Li Xinchen looked at a soldier who was sleeping on the wall of the trench, this soldier looked to be only eighteen or nineteen years old, and his face was still bloodied, obviously he had experienced a fierce and tragic battle during the day. He held the knife in his arms, clutching the hilt tightly, and even in his sleep, his whole body tensed his nerves, and the slightest sound would wake him up.

Li Xinchen sighed in his heart, I don't know how long this war will last, but as long as the world is still divided between the north and the south, then this war will never be quelled. Whether it is for the lofty ideals of heroes or the boundless ambition of statesmen, this war can only end with the unification of the world.

Stretched out his hand to untie his cloak and cover the soldier's body, the soldier was frightened, opened his eyes suddenly, and when he saw clearly that it was Li Xinchen and Dai Cai, he was startled: "General, the enemy is coming up again?" ”

And Li Xinchen stretched out his hand and pressed his shoulder: "It's still early, and the enemy has to sleep." I just don't worry about coming to see you, come, cover, the night wind is strong, don't catch a cold. ”

The soldier nodded gratefully, but immediately firmly gave the cloak back to Li Xinchen: "The general can't do this, the general is still patrolling the position in the middle of the night, and his subordinates can't hold the general's cloak at all, and ask the general to put it on." ”

Li Xinchen chuckled lightly, did not refuse, just looked up and looked ahead.

In the darkness, the sky was brightly lit not far away.

And several soldiers around also heard the movement and opened their eyes in a daze. Li Xinchen said with a smile: "Looking at so many enemies, are you afraid?" ”

"General, I'm afraid of a calf, no matter how powerful they are, today they haven't been killed by us, and even the Fei Jinli was shot by General Dai, if it wasn't for his personal guards to grab it quickly, I'm afraid everyone would have confessed here." One of the soldiers plucked up his courage and said, "If he dares to come again tomorrow, the brethren will leave him with the general." ”

"It's not a, what do you want him to do." Li Xinchen scolded with a smile, "Can you eat and drink?!" ”

The soldiers looked at each other and immediately laughed suppressedly. They didn't expect General Dangkou to speak rudely, and he didn't care about this fee and profit, and the disdain between the lines hit the hearts of the soldiers.

Dai Cai and Li Ping also looked at each other and smiled.

Li Xinchen's voice sank a little, but with no more stability and confidence than just now: "I believe that one day I will rush over with you, defeat them, and capture the flag!" ”

Clenched his fists, Li Xinchen's gaze was extremely firm: "One day!" ”

"We believe in the General!" The soldiers stood up one after another.

In the darkness, in the light of the fire, one figure after another, either stout or thin, but their faces full of tired expressions, their eyes were exceptionally simple and bright.

——————————--

Li Xinchen strode into Dai Cai's tent on the hillside, which was actually more appropriate to call it a straw hut.

If you stand at the bottom of the mountain, it is actually difficult to find this shack that is almost half hidden in the mountain, and the top of the shack has been specially reinforced, even if the stone bullet is directly hit, it will shake off the dust.

This is actually the command system in the trench system copied by Li Xinchen, and the situation on the outside front can be clearly seen from the specially set aside observation holes, and whether it is Dai Cai or Cao Zhong on the other hill, there is no need to risk the enemy's arrows and stone bullets to command the battle, after all, the goal is too obvious.

Li Xinchen didn't come directly just now, but went to the trench to inspect it first, in fact, it was still Wu Qi's set of food and undressing, but the soldiers below actually ate the most.

What's more, the figures who stood up in the trench just now, and the eyes that came over, undoubtedly made Li Xinchen feel the trust of these soldiers.

They fought bloodily on this mountain, and they never failed Li Xinchen.

And Li Xinchen will not disappoint them.

Looking around, Li Xinchen said in a deep voice: "After Fei Yejin Li today, Cao Xiaoda immediately led the army to attack and hit not far from here, right?" ”

Dai Cai bowed slightly: "Obviously, Wei Chi Yu gave the order to die, and his subordinates had already gone up with his personal guards at that time, if it wasn't for the general who led his troops to arrive in time, I'm afraid this line would have been lost long ago." There wasn't much foothold on the top of the hill, so an enemy attacking directly forward could push us down completely. ”
