Chapter Eighty-Nine: Intercepting the Enemy Army in the Inner City{3}

The first wave of the attack of Yuan Taizuo's army was broken, and they were dealt a heavy blow, and the allied army only fired three rounds of sharp arrows, and the army of 8,000 men was reduced by more than 20%, and more than 2,000 were killed and wounded!

Yuan Taizuo, who was watching the battle from behind, gasped, he learned Su Shang's changeable tactics for the first time, from qiāng spearmen to archers, and the army was far better trained than his own army!

Before the attack, he was still wondering why this Sui army, which was far inferior to his own soldiers in weaponry, dared to shake his army head-on?

Now, he finally understood that the confidence of this Sui army came from excellent training, a lot of training in various tactics, so that they could play to the fullest on the ever-changing battlefield and seize every opportunity to win!

Yuan Taizuo's confidence faded somewhat, not to mention the ordinary soldiers, the originally high morale quickly faded under the strong bows and arrows of the allied army, and the slogan of killing the enemy that was shouted as loud as a mountain just now also disappeared, and everyone was retreating quickly and nervously, for fear that if the retreat was slow, they would lose their lives.

Seeing that the soldiers were retreating, there was gradually some confusion, and Yuan Taizuo's face was gloomy, for fear that the Sui army on the opposite side would take the opportunity to launch an attack and catch himself off guard!

The Sui army didn't attack, and it didn't seem to care about the small chaos that appeared in Yuan Taizuo's army! Looking at the army that had rearranged the formation, Yuan Taizuo's gloomy face finally softened a little!

At this time, a general-like soldier trotted to Yuan Taizuo's side and reported in a low voice: "Report to Lord Mo Lizhi, the soldiers suffered a total of 2,200 casualties in this attack, of which 1,200 seriously wounded brothers did not have time to retreat, and remained on the battlefield in front, among the 1,000 people who have withdrawn, more than 300 are seriously injured, and they have temporarily lost all their combat effectiveness!"

"The casualties are so heavy! Bastard! ”

Yuan Taizuo scolded fiercely in his heart, his eyes looked at the center of the battlefield, and the soldiers who had not retreated had fallen to the ground in all directions, with sharp arrows stuck in their bodies, motionless, and occasionally let out one or two weak howls!

Yuan Taizuo wanted to retreat a little, he understood that in this situation, the army's spirit had been lost, and the soldiers were not suitable to fight for the time being, if they continued to fight, it was likely that the whole army would be wiped out, and now they had to withdraw first and regroup their morale!

However, he also knew clearly that he could not order the withdrawal of troops in a hurry, and he had to wait for an opportunity. Because the Sui army on the opposite side will not watch their safe withdrawal, they will definitely take the opportunity to launch an attack and attack at the tail of the tail. If there is a little chaos in the retreat of your own army, it will cause a chain reaction, and then the army will be defeated like a mountain, and it will also end in a fiasco!

Yuan Taizuo was very hesitant, some of them had to advance and retreat, and he couldn't make a decision for a while, so he could only order his soldiers to continue to line up in place, and temporarily stand still, intending to respond to all changes with no change! At the same time, he also imagined that he could exhaust the patience of the Sui generals on the opposite side, and then the Sui generals would recklessly attack, and when the time came, he could also use the arrow array to pay back. In that case, it's hard to say who will kill the deer, maybe you will turn defeat into victory!

Time passed silently, the scorching sun in the sky was gradually slanting westward, but the temperature was still hot, and the huge field was like a huge steamer that was hot and humid, consuming the physical strength of the soldiers on both sides!

Su Shang seemed to have seen through Yuan Taizuo's thoughts, and he had not given any orders, and the officers and men of the Allied Army had been lining up in place to fight, without any intention of taking the initiative to attack!

Time passed minute by minute, and the scorching temperature tested the soldiers on both sides! An hour passed, and the soldiers of the Yuan Taizuo army gradually couldn't hold on, and the previous hasty attack and retreat made their physical strength consume more than the soldiers of the Allied Army, plus their armor and equipment were more complete and heavier, and the physical energy consumed in the same time would be more, and slowly some people stood staggeringly, and their morale became more and more low!

"The army is attacking!"

Yuan Taizuo ordered sharply, he was in a hurry, he knew that he couldn't wait like this any longer, otherwise it wouldn't be long before the Sui army launched an attack, and all his soldiers would fall! Now only by attacking with all our strength and leaving it to death can we bring a glimmer of hope to the army!

The order to attack was laid, and the marching drums were beaten, "Knock! Boom! Boom! Yuan Taizuo's soldiers began to shout and run again, but they were demoralized and lacked physical strength, and their running speed was obviously much slower, and some were uneven, and many of them were caught in the middle and charged forward!

Looking at the charging enemy army, Su Shang laughed, as Du Ruhui said, the enemy army is not strong, once the morale is frustrated, their combat effectiveness is far inferior to the allied army, no wonder they have to rely on holding the city to consume the strength of the court army, and dare not block the lone court army along the way, these enemy troops are just a group of well-equipped rabble!

"Attack!"

The arrow array had already been used, the enemy was prepared, and it was no longer useful to defend and counterattack on the spot, so Su Shang brazenly gave the order to attack.

"Kill!" 10,000 Allied soldiers shouted angrily, like the flow of water from a huge dam, surging towards the enemy soldiers hundreds of paces away!

The two armies collided violently, the swords were slashed, the long qiāng stabbed violently, the flesh and blood on both sides flew, and the screams, tearing roars, and shouts resounded in the sky above the field!

Although Yuan Taizuo's soldiers were all wearing Mingguang armor, their morale was low, their spirit was lost, and their physical strength was seriously consumed, so they could not resist the sharp attack of the Allied soldiers, and for a while, they were killed and retreated!

Li Mo led the left flank of 3,000 troops to attack from the enemy's right flank, this time was the first time Li Mo led the army to fight alone, but he did not have stage fright, but was extraordinarily brave, holding a Daguan knife in his hand, leading 3,000 brothers to fight fiercely with the enemy!

Although Li Mo was the main general of the left flank, he was mainly responsible for coordination, and the specific operations were handled by three partial generals, who each led a thousand troops to attack the enemy's right flank from three directions!

The war horse galloped, and Li Mo saw the opponent's right-wing commander at a glance, and the two were less than a hundred steps apart. Li Mo was secretly happy in his heart, and immediately hung the Daguan knife next to the saddle, took off the wind-breaking bow on his back, and quickly pulled out two sharp arrows from the quiver, one bit it with his mouth, and the other took the bow on the wind, and instantly pulled the bow like a full moon, and shot an arrow from the side!

This arrow was ruthless and accurate, hitting the neck of the enemy general Li Jincheng, Li Jincheng screamed, and fell straight from the horse, his own soldiers were shocked, and hurriedly rescued him, but Li Mo's second sharp arrow "Whoosh!" When he hit the ground, Li Jincheng was powerless to dodge, and was shot through the forehead by an arrow and died on the spot.

The left flank of the enemy army lost its main general, and the morale of the army was instantly lost, and the enemy soldiers began to quickly disperse, scattering and running, and some soldiers were fleeing in the chaos!

"Report to Lord Mo Lizhi, General Li Jincheng has been killed, and the right wing can't stand it!" A general and captain rushed to Yuan Taizuo to report.

Yuan Taizuo was taken aback, and hurriedly shouted to the cavalry general beside him: "Quickly send five hundred cavalry to support the right flank!"

"Yes! Not complied with! ”
