Chapter 199: The Battle for the Defending the City XIII

Hearing the adjutant general's reminder, Yoshio Yamamoto and the rest of the generals were all a little surprised, looking at the adjutant general's shocked expression, Yoshio Yamamoto glanced at him with a little doubt, and then, while turning his head to look at the other side carefully, he muttered: "Why are you making such a fuss?" Didn't you just set fire to half of the city, as for ...... so shocked?"

Just said this, Yoshio Yamamoto also noticed that something was wrong, he looked at the opposite side carefully, and then, Yoshio Yamamoto rubbed his eyes, and looked at the direction of the opposite city wall again, when he saw the re-closed city gate, the corpse that was thrown off the city wall, and the crowded city wall, he looked at the left and right generals with a blank face, and asked sluggishly: "Am I wrong?" ”

At this time, everyone noticed that something was wrong, and everyone looked sideways, and then, Yoshio Yamamoto sent a careful investigation to see how the offensive on the opposite side was going? After several of them received the order, they swaggered and rode towards each other, and after a while, only one of them escaped.

Just now, a total of eight fine works were gone, and after a cup of tea, seven fine works died in the line of duty, and the remaining one survived, but he was also covered in injuries, dragging serious injuries, and the fine work reported the information they had found in public: "Cavalry commander, our 300,000 army was completely wiped out by the enemy's division." ”

After hearing Hosaku's report, Yoshio Yamamoto didn't come back to his senses for a while, he was stunned, and then walked to Hosaku's side with an anxious face, and asked Hosaku in an anxious tone: "You make it clear, it was our 300,000 army that wiped out all the enemy's divisions?" Or were our 300,000 soldiers and horses wiped out by the enemy's divisions? ”

"It's all destroyed." Hosaku was pinched by Yoshio Yamamoto and couldn't speak, struggling to breathe, and Hosaku told everyone: "Our soldiers and horses fell into the tricks of the opposing war guards, and were trapped in the city by the other party. ”

"All dead? Can't they all be dead? Talking to himself, Yoshio Yamamoto shook his body with his feet, and then, he sat on the ground, shook his head, he looked left and right with a confused face, and asked in a daze: "Is it a mistake?" Three legions, huh? How could it be destroyed in an instant?

Maybe our previous information was wrong? The other side is not defending the city at all, maybe the other side has hidden its troops, maybe there is a corps hoarded in the city? Maybe it's two corps, yes, it must be a hidden force, otherwise they can't defeat us, a whole three legions, how can I explain to the commander of the Nakajima Corps?

Send out all the details, probe the details of the opposite general, I want to know all the information of the other party's general, I have to see where the defeat is in the hands of the sacred, this time, I am considered to have fulfilled the opposite general, he resisted my attack three times, burned to death 300,000 troops under my command, this battle, I will be stinky for 10,000 years, and the other party's main general will be famous. ”

"Lord Commander, what should we do later? Will it continue the offensive or will it be temporarily encamped? The adjutant asked cautiously.

At this moment, Yoshio Yamamoto's courage has been frightened, he has not yet recovered from the fact of losing 300,000 troops, so after hearing the deputy general's inquiry, he waved his hand with palpitations: "Don't fight, let's set up camp first, pass the order down, retreat thirty miles, hang up the battle card, and stop the attack for the time being." ”

"Then do you ------ want to report this matter to Commander Nakajima? With such a big loss, his subordinates don't know how to recover from the peak. "The deputy will continue to ask for orders.

"yes, how do you reply?" Yoshio Yamamoto asked people to help him up, his face was stunned, and after a few breaths, he walked towards the back with staggering steps, whispering as he walked: "Temporarily transfer three legions from the east city to the south city, before finding out the details of the guards on the opposite side, let's stop for a while, we can't lose manpower anymore, and order to withdraw." ”

……

"Master Horse, the enemy camp has retreated, and the details have followed the past to investigate, they have retreated to the woods thirty miles away and set up a camp, looking at the appearance of the other party, the enemy army will not lead troops to attack the city for the time being, and the southern city is saved." Yue Qianfeng came to the tent, looked at Ling Xia, who had just returned to normal, and reported to Ling Xia the news that the enemy had retreated thirty miles.

After reporting this, Yue Qianfeng looked at Ling Xia with an excited face: "Master Horse, you are really amazing, you actually came up with such a wonderful tactic, the entire more than 300,000 enemy troops were burned to ashes by our fire, which has been burned for more than two hours, and the fire has not been extinguished, but it is a pity that those war horses have also been burned to death."

To tell the truth, when the enemy army first came to the city, the brothers didn't pay attention to it and didn't know what to do. At that time, I didn't expect to be able to hold Nancheng, 58,000 people against 300,000 enemy troops, and in the end we won the victory. ”

Looking at Yue Qianfeng's excited and excited face, Ling Xia looked very calm and lonely, and after a moment of silence, Ling Xia asked in a solemn tone, "How about our casualties?" ”

"This ......" Yue Qianfeng didn't expect Ling Xia to ask about this topic immediately, sighed, Yue Qianfeng's mood gradually lowered, and after hesitating for a while, he told Ling Xia with a sad face: "Although we have destroyed a lot of enemies this time, the price we paid is also very heavy, and we have almost destroyed the enemy's three reorganized legions." ”

"The 8,000 reservists were all killed, there are still 36 people left in Huya's 10,000-man marksmanship, 241 people left in Luo Laoda's field 10,000-person team, more than 3,400 people left in Jiang Hailiu's 10,000-person team, more than 4,100 people left in Situ Chenfeng's 10,000-person light cavalry team, and more than 7,600 people left in my 10,000-person team.

"Of the 58,000-strong Battle Banner Division, there are only more than 15,000 left? Forty-three thousand, forty-three thousand, I ------ sorry for those brothers. Speaking of this, Ling Xia's tone was a little choked, although he had guessed in advance that the losses of the Battle Flag Division would be very large, he didn't expect it to be so big.

"Bury the bodies of those brothers, immediately send people to treat the wounded, strengthen vigilance, send those prisoners to the outside of the city to dispose of the corpses of the enemy and repair the city walls, and by the way, collect the siege equipment outside the city, see if those weapons can be repaired?" When Ling Xia was arranging the task, suddenly, someone came to report that Lao Cui had returned with reinforcements from both wings.
