Chapter 180: The Battle of the Primeval Forest III
General Lan Da and Lan Qi'er received a notification from the signal corps and knew the situation in the primeval forest, so they immediately gave the order to march quickly, and all the Qishan soldiers disappeared outside the primeval forest.
In the primeval forest of reality, the melee between the two armies has begun, and the result is not in doubt, although the generals of the Left Banner and the soldiers and ordinary people killed the Han soldiers, they were far inferior to the Han soldiers in terms of number and combat power, and there were as many as seventy or eighty dead and wounded for a time.
General Zuo Qi saw that the situation was out of control, and that in such a divided battle, all the soldiers and civilians who entered the primeval forest would die one after another, and began to shout loudly, so that all the soldiers and civilians gathered in one place to form a temporary joint force, so that all the people naturally became the center of the circle, and the soldiers naturally surrounded the people in the center of the circle, forming a temporary state of protection.
There were only one hundred and eighty Qishan soldiers left, and they were still suffering casualties as time went on, because there were nearly a thousand Han soldiers surrounding and attacking it outside the circle of less than 200 people.
Princess Enran's battle situation was not optimistic, she heard the shouts of the general of the left banner, but the battle position of herself and the four Praetorian Guards was too far away, and it was impossible to get through for a while, so she could only fight separately.
Fortunately, Princess An Ran got Lan Qi'er's true inheritance, and her martial arts were still better than ordinary soldiers, plus the protection of four Praetorian Guards, and thousands of bees swirling five or six meters outside her body, blocking the approaching Han army, and the wolves were also shuttling between several people, constantly attacking the Han army that broke through the swarm, and for a time people and animals formed a seamless circle, this situation is really special.
General Han went to the battle site from time to time, and saw that his soldiers had surrounded the Qishan soldiers in the primeval forest, and the number of people surrounded was very small, and they were still gathering to resist, so he didn't want to waste any more time, so he immediately issued a general order, so that the archers in the army began to assemble, and the next step was to prepare to shoot them collectively.
Everything is unpredictable, time determines the life and death of the Qishan soldiers and people, more than 1,000 Qishan soldiers under the leadership of General Lan Da and Lan Qi'er, have arrived, and for a time the shouts of killing are everywhere, and the two armies began to engage in hand-to-hand combat.
The primeval forest is geographically advantageous for the Qishan army (although it is also for all the Qishan army, but the Qishan army has not experienced the bloody scene just now, there is no sense of fear), the shouting and killing of the Qishan soldiers has made the Han soldiers have a sense of fear, coupled with the discord between people, people's hearts have been floating, for a time the Han army is naturally defeated, some Han soldiers have turned around and ran away without the general's order, life is precious, there is hope for life, who will choose to die, the general and the general may fight because of their duties, and stick to it.
A soldier is a soldier, they all know the real situation, if they don't run, they will die, they can't manage too much, the two generals of the Han Dynasty saw that the situation was not good, a large number of soldiers had fled, and they didn't even give the order to say urgently, they also turned around and fled.
Fortunately, after the Han army fled for a while, they had the back road they had prepared for themselves when they first entered the deep forest, so that they could exit the primeval forest safely.
General Lan Da and Lan Qi'er knew that the Han army might have arrived outside the primeval forest, and if it really made a comeback, it would be impossible to parry, so they immediately ordered all the soldiers and civilians who entered the primeval forest in advance to be responsible for the traps in their control, and the soldiers who entered the primeval forest unconditionally cooperated with the repair, and how much could be recovered in a short period of time.
Of course, Lan Qi'er saw Princess An Ran resting not far away, and at the same time, she also saw everything beside Princess An Ran, not only four Praetorian guards, but also a group of bees she raised, which she knew, what surprised Lan Qi'er was that there were many deep forest wolves, and many wolves were lying next to Princess An Ran and several guards, like domestic dogs, it was really unimaginable!
After the return of the military scouts, the Han army has evacuated from the primeval forest, so General Lan gave a general order and collected the troops, Princess An Ran's fearless performance in the primeval forest naturally spread quickly among the soldiers and people, Princess An Ran became another respected heroine in Qishan City for a while, and the relationship between her and animals is even more legendary!
The Han army was defeated and withdrew from the primeval forest, and when it entered, it was 5,000 elite soldiers, and now there are less than 1,500 people out of the deep forest, and there are many wounded, which can be described as a complete defeat!
In order to cover up their incompetence and exonerate themselves, the two Han generals naturally greatly exaggerated the situation in the primeval forest after Marshal Qin went outside the primeval forest, such as unknown poisonous gases, poisonous snakes and beasts, traps set up by the Loulan army, etc., the danger is everywhere, and it is really impossible to pass through it.
Marshal Qin saw that there were more than 1,000 of the 5,000 elite soldiers left in the primeval forest, and there were many wounded, of course, he had to believe it, so he made a helpless choice, that is, he did not continue to enter the primeval forest, and returned to nourish and recharge, in order to fight tomorrow!
The Han army was defeated, and the first battle could have lost seven or eight thousand soldiers, and there was no singing and laughter in the Han marshal's tent, and the atmosphere was serious for a while, and the two generals of Xia Guan and the generals who led the army into the primeval forest knelt in the Chinese army tent together, and did not dare to say anything.
Wang Guifei naturally entered the Chinese army tent, seeing that the atmosphere was very wrong, this had just started the war, so she had to open her mouth in order to ease the atmosphere of the generals, naturally to encourage the fighting spirit of the generals, and not to blame and slander each other for a momentary failure.
Now that the army has arrived here, it is necessary to take the enemy as the purpose, and do not blame and investigate the failure and dereliction of duty for a while, the most important thing to do is to sum up the experience of the strong attack, and with the help of the experience of this failure, we must seek that the next Marshal Qin can reasonably divide the troops, arrange the formation, break the Qishan Pass in one fell swoop, and set foot on the Qishan City.
At the same time, Wang Guifei also reported to Marshal Qin that the army of grain collectors had finished collecting grain and grass, and went out of the Han border early, and now they have set off from Shanjun City, coming to Qishan, and they can reach our military camp one day later.
The woman's words did play a certain mediating role on some occasions, the atmosphere in the marshal's tent was somewhat relaxed, Xia Guan and other four generals were also exempted from responsibility for a while, and they all stood on both sides of the Chinese military tent again.
The study will definitely have an effect, this is for sure, how the three armies were defeated, how to deal with it next, with the passage of time, it will be released one by one, because the Han army has lost nearly a quarter, according to the introduction of the two generals who were defeated in the primeval forest, the primeval forest is large, and the complexity is not considered, and the troops are no longer divided into the primeval forest.
Regarding the mountainside on both sides of the pass, most of the generals have seen the situation on this mountainside, and they have learned about the first battle, because of the special situation, it is still necessary to send a soldier to carry out a symbolic feint, of course, this time Marshal Qin gave a clear command, that is, to protect the safety of the soldiers themselves as the first priority, the climbing soldiers do not need to concentrate too much on climbing, the generals can control the rhythm, in order to have some soldiers between the mountainside and the ground to climb.
Of course, the main direction of attack is still the pass gate, how to quickly cross the moat, and the discussion began in the Chinese army tent, because the first defeat was blocked by the moat, which led to a large number of stagnation of the Han army, so that the Qishan soldiers used the wasp attack to disturb the soldiers, causing chaos to the soldiers, so that the Qishan archers could effectively injure our soldiers with arrows, causing a large number of casualties among the soldiers.
If you can quickly pass the moat, the casualty rate of the soldiers can be greatly reduced, and the loss rate of siege vehicles will be reduced, and the siege pass gate will not be a problem.
The marshal's tent passed a half-hour summary, the army was not divided, the main direction of attack was there, and the matter of the moat bridge deck and the siege vehicles were also issued.
The Han soldiers began to cut wood, because there were trees around Qishan, and there was everything there was to make wood, and more than an hour passed, and the wood was continuously transported into the barracks, and the Han army began to build vehicles and bridge decks.
The Han army did not choose to transport the bridge deck with the army separately to the moat, and chose to install it directly in the barracks, two pieces of ten meters long and four meters wide bridge plate from time to time to form, of course, the bridge plate is wet, the weight is not the general weight, the same is true for the vehicle, the benefits are naturally great, on the one hand, the wet wood bridge plate and the vehicle is tough, not only is not afraid of the ignition point of the rocket, the general rolling wood thunder stone is rolled down from the mountainside, but also can not destroy the bridge plate and the vehicle.
On the other hand, when the Han army carried the bridge plates, the soldiers had a method, and they had to lift the two bridge plates above their heads, which invisibly became a tool to block arrows, which was really useful.
Of course, the generals of the Han army were satisfied after seeing it, knowing that the moat was no longer an obstacle to stopping the advance of the Han army, everything was ready, and the main attack general was also decided, this time in addition to the two generals of Xiaguan, the two generals of the primeval forest of the first battle were also sent as vanguard generals, and the rest is to fight again tomorrow.
