Chapter 792: Liu Xiu's Countermeasures

"The number of troops sent by Wang Mang to conquer us is really shocking......"

Liu Xiu stood on a hillside, looking out at the arrival of the New Dynasty army from afar, covering the entire plain, which was incredible.

When Chu Tian saw an enemy army of this size, sweat oozed from his forehead.

With such a terrifying military situation, I am afraid that there are more than 420,000 troops, because Chu Tian saw that on the north bank of the water, there was actually an army that was also black and oppressive.

At this time, Chu Tian seemed to realize that something was wrong.

Extremely difficult, it doesn't seem to be as easy as you think.

The 420,000 army on the opposite side was different from the momentum of the peasant army, and Wang Mang inherited a group of elite troops from the Western Han Empire.

Wang Feng, Wang Chang and other leaders of the Green Forest Army broke out in a cold sweat when they saw the army of the New Dynasty.

The number of officers and soldiers is more than the number of their Green Forest Army, who is the Green Forest Army?

Wang Feng, one of the leaders of the Green Forest Army, was trembling uncontrollably, and his fingers were cramping: "It's better to give up Kunyang, disperse, and retreat to their respective hometowns, and avoid the ......thieves for the time being."

Wang Chang, the other leader of the Green Forest Army, also said: "What I said is that we can't compete with Wang Mang's army at all now, and if we hit a stone with an egg, then the end will be bleak." ”

"Do you have the confidence to break the enemy?"

Chu Tian looked at Liu Xiu.

Liu Xiu is a clan relative surnamed Liu, and he is also the main battle faction, Chutian's biggest ally in the battle of Kunyang.

Chutian believed that Liu Xiu would not make a mistake.

Moreover, Liu Xiu is also a military general with the aura of the whole army, and he can cooperate with Chutian.

If possible, Chu Tian even considered abducting Liu Xiu back to the main world.

The current Liu Xiu is not an emperor yet, and he can't imagine that he will become an emperor in the future.

This guy, his luck may be better than Chu Tian and the others, the true son of the plane.

In addition, Liu Xiu also has a nickname - the Great Magister.

"Raise the banner of righteousness, restore the Han family, and crusade against the traitors. If we disband, then Wang Mang will not give up arresting us, and when he returns to the township, a pavilion chief can lead someone to arrest us. Only if everyone works together to defeat the new army and capture Wang Mang, can we survive. ”

Liu Xiu's attitude was indeed different from that of other Green Forest Army leaders.

The other leaders of the Green Forest Army couldn't help but glance at Liu Xiu more.

"It's strange that the general usually cowers in small-scale battles, but now that the enemy is in front of him, he advocates us to attack."

One of Liu Xiu's subordinates, who was also one of the twenty-eight generals of Yuntai, couldn't help muttering.

At present, Liu Xiu has subdued several talents, and they are the twenty-eight generals of Yuntai of Emperor Guangwu in the future.

Ma Wu, Wang Ba, Fu Jun, Ren Guang and others were all in Kunyang City at this time.

Among the 28 generals of Yuntai, there are military geniuses and mediocre talents, and they are ranked according to their merits.

One of the most talented of the twenty-eight generals of Yuntai, Feng Yi, is already Chutian's general.

However, at this time, Feng Yi was not in Liu Xiu's army.

Liu Xiu seemed to be in pain, and was slightly embarrassed: "People always cherish their lives, and when they fight in peacetime, they naturally have to be cautious and cautious, and they don't dare to fight in front." But at the moment of life and death, fleeing is a dead end, fighting hard, there is still a glimmer of life, but anyone who is wise should know how to choose. ”

A group of Green Forest Army generals glanced at each other, and finally seemed to have made up their minds: "Everything is up to the general." ”

Chu Tian was listening to a group of Green Forest Army leaders discussing on the sidelines, and it seemed that Liu Xiu had been very timid in the previous battle.

This is different from the image of Emperor Guangwu in Chu Tian's impression, but it does not affect Liu Xiu to come forward at a critical moment and lead a partial division of the Green Forest Army to meet the 840,000 army.

"Brother Chu, there are still some soldiers and horses in Yuncheng and Dingling, and I plan to go to these places to gather soldiers and horses while Wang Mang's army has not completely surrounded Kunyang, so as to strengthen the momentum. Would you like to lead a group of cavalry and join me outside the city to defeat the enemy? ”

Liu Xiu proposed a way to leave Kunyang and use cavalry outside the city to defeat the enemy army.

Cavalry is a class of troops used to create miracles, and it is also a class of troops that win more with less.

"And what about Kunyang City?"

"Wang Feng and Wang Chang can guard Kunyang."

"Wang Feng and Wang Chang ......"

Chu Tian was very skeptical about Wang Feng and Wang Chang's ability to defend Kunyang City.

The current Green Forest Army is not facing an ordinary new army.

The number of the new dynasty's army may have exceeded 420,000, and its combat effectiveness was stronger, and Chu Tian even saw the tiger army in the new dynasty army.

Chu Tian was very familiar with the Tiger Army, because he had a high-level heavy cavalry that was the Tiger Army.

In the army of the new dynasty, there is no shortage of elite troops, and there are even many of them, because Wang Mang inherited the team of the Western Han Dynasty.

"War elephants? There was a war elephant legion, and that large wagon, what were they used to transport? ”

Chu Tian vaguely saw a group of war elephants in the distance, as well as a strange group of carriages, each carriage needed to use four war horses, and his expression suddenly became nervous.

The War Elephant is a ninth-order class with the ability to kill generals, and if it cannot be restrained, the cavalry will be destroyed by the War Elephant troops.

If Chu Tian was in the opposite camp, commanding hundreds of thousands of troops, as well as a group of tiger army and war elephant army, Chu Tian thought that he could defeat the son of luck.

Wait, I guess the main general on the other side thinks the same thing......

Chu Tian became cautious.

There is also a famous battle, the Battle of Weishui, in which Fu Jian's 800,000-strong army was defeated by Xie Xuan's 80,000-strong Beifu army.

Of course, the troops recorded in the history books have water, but in "Lord", it is difficult to say whether there is water or not.

In case it is really an army of 800,000, which is equivalent to the 40,000 army brought by Chu Tian, one person has to deal with twenty enemy soldiers.

Even so, the side with more troops seems to have a good chance of defeat.

"Can you hold Kunyang?"

Chu Tian looked at Wang Feng and Wang Chang, and he was not clear about their abilities, because Chu Tian couldn't view their panel at all.

"There are only 9,000 soldiers and horses in Kunyang City, how can we block the attack of hundreds of thousands of people? Even if Kunyang City is strong, it will take at least twenty or thirty thousand people to defend Kunyang City......"

Wang Feng and Wang often thought that they had to guard Kunyang, and their faces were bloodless.

In fact, even if there were twenty or thirty thousand people, the two of them were unwilling to garrison Kunyang City.

100,000 people is about the same.

But at present, all the soldiers and horses combined, there are only 50,000 people.

Cavalry has to be valuable outside the city, and not much inside the city.

"I can leave 13,000 crossbow troops, 7,000 cavalry, and 9,000 Green Forest troops, a total of 29,000 people, to hold Kunyang City. The remaining 20,000 cavalry followed me out of the city and came back again. ”

Chu Tian decided to let Liang Hongyu assist Wang Feng and Wang Chang in defending Kunyang City.

Relying only on Wang Feng and Wang Chang, Chutian was not very relieved, because the army of the new dynasty was obviously strengthened.

The battle of Kunyang in extremely difficult mode is doubly difficult, and Chu Tian really can't imagine that in the battle of Kunyang in hell mode, the strength of the new dynasty's army will exceed one million.

Liu Xiu's thinking is undoubtedly correct, the lonely city is difficult to defend, so a cavalry is needed to go out of the city and wait for an opportunity to sneak attack the new dynasty army.

20,000 cavalry raided the 800,000 army, and Chu Tian didn't know if it would succeed.

The crowd tactic may make 20,000 cavalry fall into a sea of corpses and blood, and it will be difficult to move an inch.

The Green Forest Army still had troops in other cities in Yingchuan County, and Liu Xiu planned to find more than 10,000 soldiers and horses to join forces with Chutian's 20,000 cavalry to raid the New Dynasty army outside the city.

"Let's go back to Kunyang City and make preparations."

After Liu Xiu made up his mind, he gave up observing the army of the New Dynasty and prepared to leave the hillside with Chu Tian and his party. They could already roughly feel the combat effectiveness of the new Korean army, which was far more powerful than they imagined.

Hundreds of war horses descended the mountain, Zhao Yun held a gentian bright silver spear, and followed closely by Chu Tian's side, followed by a team of white horse followers.

Every military general must be covered by cavalry, so that it is not easy to die.

"Lord Sikong, there is a scout cavalry of the Green Forest Army there to peek into our reality."

When Chu Tian, Liu Xiu and others were observing, there were already descendants of soldiers in Wang Yi's army who noticed the whereabouts of Chu Tian and his party.

Wang Yi asked, "How do you know?" ”

"The eagle hovering in the air is the eyes and ears of the Green Forest Army."

"Yan You, you lead five thousand cavalry to investigate and see if this is the case."

Wang Yi finally chose to let the lieutenant general intercept and kill the scout cavalry of the Green Forest Army.

Wang Mang summoned 500 descendants of soldiers in the world to serve as generals, and they all had their own special abilities to a greater or lesser extent. Some descendants of the military family saw the role of the war eagle of the Iron Eagle Scout.

"Command!"

Yan You was Wang Yi's most powerful lieutenant and immediately left with 5,000 cavalry.

Situ Wang Xun said: "Do you want to send a giant, he is the number one fierce general in our army, and he can defeat a thousand people." ”

"Against a scout cavalry, it's not enough to use the Big Mac and his army of beasts. Your Majesty collected the fierce beasts in the world, and named Liu Xiu, who was in Kunyang City at this time, with the Beast Legion, which is why I insisted on capturing Kunyang City. ”

Wang Yi couldn't help but sigh when he mentioned Wang Mang's order to him.

Wang Xun was puzzled: "Why did Your Majesty name and kill Liu Xiu?" Although Liu Xiu is also an important figure in the Green Forest Army, it should be his brother Liu Yan who is really difficult to deal with. ”

"I don't know."

Wang Yi shook his head again.

Liu Yan is Liu Xiu's brother, before the chaos in the world, he secretly befriended chivalrous, and at that time, Liu Xiu was still farming......

Later, Liu Yan raised troops and joined the Green Forest Army and became one of the most prominent leaders of the Green Forest Army.

Now it is Liu Yan who is leading the main force of the Green Forest Army to besiege Wancheng.

It can be said that before the infighting and murder of the Green Forest Army, Liu Yan was more majestic than Liu Xiu.

And Wang Mang's order was to take the lead in killing Liu Xiu.

Wang Yi and Wang Xun couldn't understand why Wang Mang wanted to take the lead in getting rid of Liu Xiu, the number two person in the Liu brothers, instead of Liu Yan, the number one person.

"No matter what, if we capture Kunyang City and then kill Liu Xiu, Your Majesty will give us 50,000 food estates and 100,000 gold, and our descendants will always be shaded."

Wang Yi knew that Wang Mang had always been generous, and if he killed Liu Xiu, Wang Mang's reward would not be less.
