Chapter 275: Sand Table Deduction, Crushing Strength (6)

This is undoubtedly a battle that has just begun, and people are not interested in watching it anymore, Zilong's side is already in a weak position, and with the subsequent unintentional arrangement orders, the defeat is basically a certainty. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info

Even some veteran generals have already made a judgment that after losing 20,000 troops, Han Lou will set up the siege equipment outside the Zuoren City, and with an order, the siege equipment alone can take the Zuoren City.

Why? Because there were basically no materials for defending the city in Zuoren City at that time, except for grain and grass, there were only nearly 10,000 defenders left, and they were all tired and stupid people who dug pits, cut down trees, and collected oil.

However, Wei Kegu suddenly smiled and announced: "It is determined that the follow-up strength of the Hanlou river-crossing force is broken and cannot be continued." ”

Black Whistle?

Of course not, Wei Kegu also saw the doubts in the eyes of the generals, so he explained with a smile: "Because of the range and angle of attack, Zilong's archers and cavalry have all replaced their strong crossbows before setting out for the expedition, which just happens to be able to hit the river crossing route."

And because of sneaking in the jungle and collecting during this period of river bank patrols, Zilong's archers have all temporarily transformed arrows into simple rockets.

Therefore, in addition to judging that the chain of troops crossing the river was broken, Han Lou also lost nearly one-tenth of the river-crossing boats and 3,000 troops, but they received the approximate location of Zilong's bow horse, and that's it. ”

Shocked, the eyes of the generals can only be described as shock, it turns out that Zilong's bow and cavalry have done so many things during the march, why did they forget all these things?

had to review themselves, and the generals decided to re-examine the battle situation, but they found that Zilong still couldn't turn things around, and the first batch of Han Lou troops who crossed the Hutuo River already had more than 5,000 troops, and if they gathered quickly, they would definitely be able to launch a wave of effective offensives and buy enough time for the follow-up troops to keep up.

However, Zilong's 2,000 sword lancers were dispatched, and Wei Kegu judged that the 2,000 sword lancers had taken away at least 3,000 vanguard cavalry of the Han Lou army that had crossed the Hutuo River.

Due to the rush of time, Han Loujun didn't have time to get on his horse at all, and when he put on all his equipment, he had already been killed by Zilong's swords and lancers, causing so many casualties, and he was no longer able to attack.

This is also because Zilong did not arrange for the sword and lancers to kill the generals again, because they also had losses, although there were only one hundred and eighty, but Zilong was not prepared to beat the water dogs.

The generals were puzzled, if they followed this method, as long as the configuration of two thousand sword and lancers was guaranteed, and the sword and lancers hidden behind the archers and cavalry took turns to fight, then a beach landing, Zilong might kill one-third of Han Lou's troops.

Zilong did arrange a rotation of substitutes for the sword and lancers, but it did not continue to rotate indefinitely as everyone guessed.

After taking away more than 3,000 soldiers from Han Lou for the third time, Zilong's remaining more than 1,000 sword lancers stood so blatantly in the sight of the landing force, swaggering through the city.

When the fourth wave of troops landed, Han Lou, who finally gathered tens of thousands of elite horsemen, brazenly launched a crazy pursuit of more than 1,000 dragon swordsmen and lancers.

But Zilong didn't have a heroic demeanor at all, and before Han Lou's charge began, he had already fled, and the direction of his escape was actually Zuoren City.

Han Lou managed so much, pursued and pursued, and finally, Wei Kegu's feedback came to his hands, and the follow-up troops were completely broken, because there was no defense of the troops that had landed, and Han Lou's follow-up river-crossing troops were placed in front of Zilong's archers.

Just like the little ladies who were stripped naked, they were thrown in front of the eighteen Great Khans, and the fate of Han Lou's river-crossing army can be imagined, that is called a deep situation, that is called a dead and alive, and that is called a ********.

The tragic loss finally made Han Lou wake up, and he hurriedly summoned tens of thousands of soldiers who had landed to assist in the defense of the landing site on the riverbank, and Zilong's offensive was suppressed.

Yes, you read that right, it was suppressed, not completely stopped, for the simple reason that Zilong perfectly applied the idea of guerrilla tactics to this blocking war.

The archers were already more athletic than the heavy cavalry, and the cavalry that landed in Hanlou could only follow the buttocks of Zilong's archers and eat ashes, and Zilong did not let go of such a good opportunity to break into pieces.

Five thousand archers rode to the right, five thousand bows rode to the left, and after the soldiers were divided into two ways, Han Lou had to stop the pursuit, this was obviously a kite-flying style of play, no matter which direction Han Lou pursued, he would definitely give his back completely to the Zilong archer in the other direction, which was not the effect that Han Lou wanted.

However, Han Lou found that the sword and lancer cavalry, who were originally hiding behind the archers, had disappeared from the sight of the spies, and finally Wei Kegu's judgment was sent to him again.

The landing force was blocked by Zilong's saber lancers, and this batch of landing troops was completely annihilated, and Han Lou was furious.

"Impossible, less than 2,000 sleepy lancers can inflict such great damage on more than 5,000 elite cavalry? Even if they had just landed on the riverbank, they could not have been so bad. ”

Han Lou was a little crazy, but the herald unhurriedly followed Wei Kegu's words and replied: "It's not more than a thousand, it's more than eight thousand, when you were entangled with General Zilong's archers, the more than 6,000 swords and lancers who secretly transferred and the more than 1,000 swordsmen and lancers bait have already converged." ”

With a "poof", Han Lou sat on the chair, his face was full of mountains and rivers, his eyes were full of bloodshots, he gritted his teeth, and ordered: "Force the crossing with all your might, the troops who have crossed the river have been assembled to defend the landing point!" ”

Han Lou was angry to death, but the generals who watched the battle saw it heartily, a Hutuo River, 20,000 light cavalry, caused nearly 15,000 casualties to Han Lou, and the battle damage was less than one-tenth.

The Hutuo River is now like a moat in front of Han Lou's eyes, and there is no way to cross the river smoothly to the plain west of Zuoren City except to defend and force the crossing.

This is simply a typical case of blocking warfare under special terrain and special battle situations, Zilong used his ingenious arrangement to make use of all the elements that could be used on the road.

Today's battle loss ratio has reached the level of nearly seventeen to one, and this is the beginning of the offensive and defensive war of the Zuoren, a small beginning, if it continues like this, I am afraid that the Hutuo River will become the Yin and Yang River of Hanlou.

Half of the day had passed, the meal had passed early, but no one felt hungry, Zilong, who should have been the most nervous, spoke first at this time, ate first, and then continued the war. (To be continued.) )
