Chapter 482

"Ye Shuai, I found that the enemy has quietly touched the troops, about two or three thousand people,." By evening, the observation posts that Ye Tao had pre-arranged in the surrounding key locations had harvested. In the case that Beiliao can't open the situation head-on, it naturally has to use other brains.

"I'll take someone with me." Liu Yong said lightly, "Just give me a thousand light infantry." ”

Ye Tao did not hesitate, now the front does need to rotate troops, and the fewer troops that can be used, the better. Although Liu Yong has been a guard for so many years, no one dares to underestimate his ability to command soldiers. He was the chief guard of the past, and now, Ye Tao's guard battalion was also brought out by him little by little. Whether it is in terms of combat knowledge, qualifications, experience, etc., Liu Yong just doesn't give full play, after all, there is no shortage of manpower around Ye Tao to command operations.

"Uncle Liu, please." Ye Tao nodded and said, "Take the guard battalion with you, and try to settle the battle in an hour." It's not optimistic. ”

Liu Yong smiled, didn't shirk, and left with the soldiers. Everyone will see what the frontal battlefield looks like. Dealing with those thousands of people does require a quick solution.

From morning to night, the enemy still did not give up, and had lit huge fires on the river beach to light them and continue the night battle. In this whole day, the other party has successively stuffed 60,000 people. These 60,000 people proved that the Blood Qi Army was the most efficient killing machine in this era, but it also finally brought down the Blood Qi Army. Now, the corpses of the enemy piled up on the river beach have become so numerous that they are beginning to affect the battle between the two sides. However, the Northern Liao side had already killed the red eye, and they gained a firm foothold on the river beach at the cost of more than 15,000 casualties, and also forced the Blood Qi Army to finally abandon all the open space in front of the camp. The Northern Liao army could already directly attack the camp of the Blood Qi Army.

Sun Bo's headquarters had been withdrawn for a while, and there were no less than 8,000 enemies in the hands of Sun Bo's battalion alone. However, the casualties of the heavy infantry battalion were just as heavy, with more than 700 casualties, more than 20% of the entire battalion, and almost everyone was wounded. But they are still fighting stubbornly. When Ye Tao ordered the heavy infantry battalion to retreat into the camp under the cover of the light infantry, longbow and heavy equipment battalion, Sun Bowu refused to accept it, and the bloody sacrifices of the soldiers made him red-eyed. He said that he could fight again after a little rest, but as soon as he returned to the rear of the camp, the heavy infantry soldiers had not even taken off their armor, and one by one they lay on the ground, some of them fell asleep, and some of them collapsed directly. Under the protection of their comrades-in-arms, the slightest relaxation of their spirit had completely exploded the fatigue of their whole day of fighting. It's not something that can be recovered by taking a break, and the fatigue is deep in the bone marrow. The soldiers of the guard battalion and the baggage battalion, who were still relatively well preserved, immediately helped them remove their armor, and then treated their wounds and forcibly replenished some nutrients for those soldiers who had collapsed.

The heavy equipment battalion was also exhausted to death, and the frequency of firing had been reduced to a very dangerous point. Ye Tao had already put some of the soldiers of the baggage battalion in the position of loaders, let the soldiers and officers of the heavy weapons battalion only be responsible for aiming, and let the loaders with wounds on their hands rest for a while. The two guys who had been arguing on the radio for a while now have no spirit to quarrel, they looked at each other and smiled bitterly, and when they saw where they needed to be adjusted, they rushed up directly to do it, and their voices were almost unable to make a sound.

The warriors of the Longbow battalion were no less tired. In this whole day, they shot an average of more than 200 arrows per person, which was far more than the normal load. While they inflict great damage on the enemy, they are also under tremendous pressure themselves. Some of the fighters were so tired that they couldn't even lift their hands and were actively resting, wiping their medicines to recover. Those guys whose mouths and fingers were scratched by the bowstring, those who can continue to pull the bow will never retreat, looking at the blood-stained bowstring, there is a kind of tragedy. Although the Longbow Battalion is located relatively forward, because the heavy infantry and light infantry are stacked in front of them, and the position is on a relatively high hillside, there are only a few times when the enemy rushes closer, and occasionally there are stray arrows that cause less than double-digit casualties, but now the long-range combat effectiveness of the Longbow Battalion is only about sixty percent at most in its heyday. The wounds were already very much affected by the archery warriors, so they simply threw down their bows, hastily wrapped the wounds, tied their melee weapons to their hands with strips of cloth, and silently stood in the ranks of the light infantry. In normal times, this is, of course, forbidden. But now, the officers of the light infantry can only pat them on the shoulder and remind them to be careful.

Ye Tao shook his head slightly, he couldn't bear to see the soldiers fall one by one. It's not because of how many children of Dongping's wealthy families there are, but because everyone is an excellent warrior. Their combat effectiveness and will have already shocked the enemy. After such a truly bloody battle, the Blood Qi Army in the future will definitely be stronger than it is now. They will better understand why they need such rigorous training, why they will always replace their original armor and weapons with better equipment, why they will line up again and again, train again and again, the instructors will not allow anyone to make mistakes, and they will understand what the "strength and glory" of the Blood Qi Army is made of......

Strangely, Ye Tao didn't even doubt for a second that they would definitely win, and they would definitely wait until Zou Shuang's Ministry of Culture captured Xiangning City to support him. Perhaps, because of these fighters. The will to win has been infused into their blood, and they have not lost their minds because of the sacrifice of their comrades, because of repeated battles, because of blood and fatigue. Ye Tao knew that now these fighters were even more crazy. Just now, even if the number of people was reduced again and again, even if the queue was getting thinner and thinner, the queue of the heavy infantry was still horizontal and vertical, and the swing of the long-handled broadsword was completely in accordance with Sun Bo's command, "One, two, kill!" "Again and again into the ranks of the enemy. And by this time, the shooting of the longbow battalion was even more neat, just now, after a "shooting" order, the bowstrings of more than 2,000 people rang like a sound, and even these archers looked at each other suspiciously after they finished shooting, and then continued to draw arrows, build arrows, raise bows, pull strings, and shoot......

Isn't that a kind of madness? This madness is more terrible than the hysterical screaming, and more terrible than the irrational catharsis. The current Blood Qi Army is exerting one hundred and twenty percent or more of its strength. They never thought about defeat, but watched with bare eyes as the Northern Liao army rushed up again and again, as if to consider how many people they were ready to send to continue to die.

When another 20,000 people were lined up on the river bank and ready to be sent up to attack the camp of the Blood Qi Army, Gao Sen Qi naturally couldn't still be resting.

"Now...... You got the idea. Gao Senqi said to the silent generals: "Within 40,000 casualties, if you can break through Ye Tao's formation, it will be considered a profit." If Ye Tao can be caught, it will be a miracle. Although, that should be unlikely. ”

The generals around them were still silent, and after a whole day's fighting, this kind of casualties had already made them chill. The Northern Liao soldiers below completely relied on hatred and madness, relied on the instigation of the officers, and relied on the temptation of heavy prizes. This is only a small half of the Blood Qi Army, although with the help of geographical advantages, but in any case, they have not collapsed under the non-stop onslaught for a day, which is already too unimaginable. No wonder, Gao Senqi will bring 300,000 troops, and he was still trembling before. They should tremble...... The 300,000 army, if they fought with the all-out Blood Qi Army on the plains, they really didn't have much confidence that they would be able to win now, the Blood Qi Army was really terrifying, almost every time they killed or injured a soldier of the Blood Qi Army, they had to pay several times the price.

"Now the light infantry of the Blood Qi Army is almost rested, full of physical strength, and Ye Tao's guard battalion. It's been a day of fighting, and presumably by now, the threat of the Longbow Battalion and the Heavy Equipment Battalion will be much smaller, but just these two troops, I don't know if there is any hope of breaking through after grinding all night. Gao Senqi sighed, he glanced into the distance, and sighed again: "That ambush army has been killed." There is no more opportunistic methods, so let's split up and organize a night battle. ”

Zhang Lixian sighed and said, "Major General, I'll go to the other side to supervise the battle." ”

Gao Senqi glanced at him and said, "General Zhang doesn't have to blame himself, this battle, no matter who fights, I'm afraid it's the current situation." We fight for numbers, they fight for will and training, to see who can't stand first. It is better for General Zhang to sit here. We need to stabilize the army first. ”

Zhang Lixian sighed and nodded in agreement.

"Those who dare to spread rumors and disturb the hearts of our army will be dealt with by each ministry on its own." Gao Senqi ordered lightly. Everyone should be surprised. This kind of order is absolutely necessary for the current war situation that is filled with human lives.

Ye Tao, on the other hand, was sitting in the command post at this time, listening to Liu Yong in an extremely calm tone, broadcasting the results of the robbery and killing operation to the whole army on the radio. At the small cost of killing two people and seriously wounding seventeen people, they completely annihilated the enemy's lurking troops and did not take prisoners. Even the heads of those high-ranking officers had just been sent to the enemy camp on the river beach with ballistas.

After reading the battle report, there was only a whispered discussion in the whole camp, and everyone seemed to be more concerned about the battle ahead. The light infantry had already repelled three waves of enemy attacks in a row. Looking at this gloomy atmosphere, Ye Tao said helplessly: "Let's make some noise." Liu Yong smiled, knowingly took out a turntable from the box placed aside, put it on the turntable, put the microphone of the battlefield radio on the side of the turntable, and carefully placed the stylus on the turntable. Melodious music immediately spread throughout the camp.
