Chapter 559: Carry the corpse back to the city
After receiving the order, Lu Bu and the others did not ink, and after expressing their determination with Ye Mo, they took advantage of the Xu Chu brothers and Yu Ban to take away the eyeliner of the island army, and at the same time, under the cover of night, under the leadership of the reconnaissance cavalry, they marched towards the main force of the island army.
Watching Lu Bu and them leave, Ye Mo also sighed secretly.
This time, although Lu Bu and the others thought that Ye Mo had planned all this at the beginning, they even included the actions of the island country's army.
But the actual situation, Ye Mo is very clear.
Nanying is indeed a trick set up by Ye Mo, but the situation has developed to such a situation as it is now, which Ye Mo did not expect. Even if Ye Mo could calculate, there was no way to guide the actions of Oda Nobunaga and Toyotomi Hideyoshi.
However, Ye Mo didn't tell all this in front of Lu Bu and them. After all, if Ye Mo told all this, it would damage everyone's morale.
This is not the time for Ye Mo to solve his doubts.
It's not that Oda Nobunaga didn't send people to monitor the army of the Han Dynasty, but he was careless about Oda Nobunaga in Hiroshima City. In Oda Nobunaga's opinion, with Toyoshiro Hideyoshi here, it would be enough to monitor Hiroshima Castle's every move.
In addition, after Ye Mo realized that this might be an excellent opportunity, he sent troops to attack many times to disturb the sight of the scouts of the nearby island countries. Coupled with the melee between the Xu brothers and the army of the island country, these scouts of the island country suddenly fell into chaos, and they did not notice that the soldiers in the city had left.
It wasn't until Cao Ren entered Hiroshima Castle with Nanying's soldiers that the scouts of the island army who were monitoring Nanying re-included Hiroshima Castle under surveillance.
At the head of Hiroshima Castle, Cao Ang watched the movement under the city. Looking at Ye Mo's eyes, he was suddenly full of admiration.
"Uncle. Do you think Uncle Lu will succeed? "I've been following Ye Mo for a long time. Cao Ang's horizons have broadened a lot. The brothers of the Xu family under the city led 25,000 soldiers to fight with the army of the island country, but Cao Ang no longer paid attention.
It's just that for Cao Ang's question, Ye Mo said that he had no way to answer it.
In the current situation, the victory and defeat are all between the line. The soldiers of the island nation who defended the reinforcements of Hiroshima Castle under the castle were sure to suffer a crushing defeat.
As for the camp of Beiying and the main camp of the island army, no matter what the outcome is, Ye Mo will not be surprised. These two camps. Ye Mo was not sure of victory. If Ye Mo had to say a certainty, then Ye Mo could only say that he had a sixty percent chance of victory in Beiying, but Lu Bu and them were only forty percent.
Therefore, regarding Cao Ang's question, Ye Mo just shook his head, but didn't say anything.
Seeing Ye Mo like this, Cao Ang was even more puzzled. However, since Ye Mo didn't want to answer, Cao Ang didn't continue to ask.
Ye Mo at this time. It really doesn't matter if Beiying or Lu Bu have their problems. In Ye Mo's opinion, as long as Xu Chu and they can win this game. The other two battlefields, even if they are defeated, are not lost.
As long as Hiroshima City is not lost, then Ye Mo will always have an advantage in this war.
In Beiying, there are three generals, Zhang Liao, Wei Yan and Yu Ban, even if they really fail, it is enough to bring enough damage to the army of the island country. At least in Ye Mo's opinion, if he didn't leave behind thirty or twenty thousand corpses, the army of the island country would not want to set foot in Beiying.
As for Lu Bu's army, Ye Mo didn't have to worry about anything.
Lu Bu is the number one fierce general of the Han Dynasty, and if he wants to kill Lu Bu, it is not something that anyone can do. Especially in Lu Bu's line, there are also first-class generals like Dian Wei and Huang Zhong.
Moreover, in this army, if it is a light wheel martial art, the highest may be Ye Qingchi. After Ye Qingchi completed those three tasks, his strength has also been improving by leaps and bounds. Before landing on the island country, Ye Qingchi's strength had reached the level of a first-class general.
After arriving in the island country, Ye Qingchi has reached the pinnacle of first-class martial arts through continuous killing and training, and he may take such a step at any time and grow into another realm.
The tens of thousands of troops led by such a group of people are enough for the army of the island country to drink a pot.
And as time passed, the eastern sky slowly revealed a hint of fish belly white. At this moment, the battle between the Xu brothers and the army of the island country has also come to an end.
During this long wait of more than an hour, Cao Ren also asked for troops to help them more than once. It's just that he was rejected by Ye Mo every time.
It's not that Ye Mo is worried about Cao Ren's attack, but that Ye Mo can't help but leave some backhand.
At present, the Han army led by the Xu family brothers has gained the upper hand, and Ye Mo will send people to fight at this time, wouldn't that mean that he has no trust in the Xu family brothers? Although the Xu family brothers may not think so, Ye Mo can't help but think about it.
Moreover, the Han army led by the Xu brothers has been fighting for such a long time, even if those soldiers from the southern camp are sent, it is impossible to withdraw the Xu family brothers. In the unlikely event that a large army of the island country is going to attack Hiroshima Castle, who will defend it?
Outside Hiroshima City, the 5,000-strong army led by Xu Chu is now left with 2,000.
When Xu Ding suddenly killed and surrounded the armies of those island countries, the soldiers of the island countries still wanted to fight a bloody way to escape. However, after they found out that there was no way, they immediately went crazy and surrounded Xu Chu and them.
Xu Chu originally led those soldiers to bloom in the middle of the island army, and when the "flowers bloomed just right", those island soldiers suddenly killed a horse gun. Many soldiers did not expect that the soldiers of the island country would kill back the pistol, and the casualties were quite heavy at once.
But fortunately, these soldiers were also all elite, and after suffering a shock, they immediately shrank into a circular defensive array.
Those soldiers of the island country didn't know if they had taken the wrong medicine or their brains were in water, and they knew that the only way to survive was to fight their way out of the encirclement, but after several failures in the initial rush, they gave up completely, and instead attacked Xu Chu and the circle formed by them, as if they wanted Xu Chu and them to be buried together.
Faced with the lifeless impact of tens of thousands of island nation troops, Xu Chu and them could only grit their teeth and persevere. After all, as long as they hold on, there is still hope.
When the sky turned white, they finally waited for hope. Although nearly 3,000 soldiers had fallen forever at this time, Xu Chu and the remaining soldiers still grinned. It's not that they don't care about the dead brothers, it's just that after such a terrible battle, the feeling that they survived naturally flowed out.
At this time, Xu Ding led the army to continue to clear the fish that slipped through the net of the soldiers of the island country, and they almost killed the 30,000 troops of the island country in this battle. It's not that they are promised not to keep prisoners, but those island soldiers are too crazy, as if the word "surrender" is not in the minds of those soldiers.
If it was in the Great Han, how could Xu Chu and them lose nearly 3,000 soldiers? As long as the encircled soldiers feel that there is no hope of breaking out, there will inevitably be surrender.
Xu Ding didn't care about cleaning up the battlefield, but immediately ran over after seeing the soldiers led by Xu Chu laughing "haha" while maintaining the circular defensive array.
"Second brother, are you all right?" Although it is equally important to clean up the battlefield, in Xu Ding's opinion, it is still his brother's body that is more important.
After Xu Chu heard Xu Ding's words again, he also waved the rusty knife in his hand and replied: "Big brother, don't worry, I'm fine!" ”
Seeing that Xu Chu was fine, Xu Ding breathed a sigh of relief.
"Since it's okay, then you can go back to the city first, it's good to have us here." Although Xu Chu's ability is much greater than Xu Ding's, Xu Ding is a brother after all, how can he not care about his brother?
Xu Chu heard Xu Ding say this, and he didn't shirk anything. The remaining 2,000 or so of them are indeed tired. Because I had been in a state of nervousness before, I relaxed at this time, and everyone really felt a little unbearable.
However, no matter how tired they were, they still found the bodies of their brothers who had died in battle, and then a soldier carried a corpse on his back towards Hiroshima Castle. In the end, each soldier carried a corpse, but there were still hundreds of corpses left on the battlefield, and Xu Ding hurriedly called some people to carry those corpses back to the city.
When the people on the walls of Hiroshima Castle saw the soldiers returning, they finally showed happy expressions. However, when they saw that each soldier was carrying a soldier on his back, they felt that something was not quite right.
It's just that, at first, they thought that the one who was being carried was only injured. However, as the number of soldiers who came into their sight increased, they finally realized that something was wrong.
Many of the wounds on the backs of those soldiers looked extremely terrifying from the city walls.
Slowly, slowly, the faces of these men on the city wall who were talking and laughing on the battlefield did not have the joy of victory, but only a look of sadness, grief, and two lines of tears.
Everyone on the city wall has been stained with human blood to some degree. But at this moment, they felt a sadness that they had never felt before.
After raising his head and closing his eyes a few times, and forcibly forcing back the tears in his eyes, Ye Mo said hoarsely to the people around him: "Now that Zhongkang and they have won, let's go back and rest, in a few hours, there may be no chance to rest." ”
After Ye Mo said this, he didn't care about the reactions of the others, and walked directly towards the city. Although it is said that there is no winner in a war, many times it is not that you don't want to go to war, and war will not come. Ye Mo understood this very well, so even if he saw such a scene, Ye Mo had to harden his heart.
It's just that after Ye Mo turned around, Cao Ang and the others could see it clearly, and Ye Mo's hand wiped his face a few times. (To be continued.) )
