Chapter 1068: Dong Wuze is a smart man

What Dong Wuze did, Cui Zhenqi understood, very clearly.

But I just got it.

Since the Zonglan Kingdom was affiliated with the Liyang Dynasty, his words as the prime minister of the Zonglan Kingdom have been meaningless.

No matter how heartbroken he was for those elite soldiers of the Zonglan Kingdom, he could only sigh in his heart now, and obediently responded to pass on Dong Wuze's order.

"General, the enemy army has stopped advancing, and the front army is in an offensive formation, if nothing else, it should be launched after dinner. ”

On the wall of Yuanhongguan, Meng Naming said beside Gao Shun.

Gao Shun nodded, looked at the direction of Dong Wuze's army outside Yuanhong Pass, and said: "Meng Naming, tell me, why didn't the enemy army wait for the arrival of the Liyang Dynasty's army to attack Yuanhong Pass, and had to attack Yuanhong Pass alone now?"

"This ......"

Meng was silent.

This is also strange to him.

If he is the main general of the enemy army, when he knows that he still has reinforcements and is behind the opponent, he will definitely not attack rashly, but will wait until the reinforcements arrive and attack from both sides, so that not only the success rate is high, but the loss will be minimized.

But what's going on now?

Why did Dong Wuze attack ahead of schedule? Didn't he know that with the defense of Yuanhong Pass and the addition of 300 Holy Exterminating Crossbows, it would not be difficult to block the attack of his 2 million army?

Meng Naming really couldn't figure out why Dong Wuze would do this, which was somewhat inconsistent with the ability of a million-strong army commander to have.

"Can't figure it out?"

Gao Shun glanced at Meng Naming and said.

"General Mingjian. Meng Naming bowed slightly and said, "The last general is indeed a little puzzled. ”

"There's nothing I can't figure out. ”

Gao Shun shook his head slightly, and said: "In the eyes of the Liyang Dynasty, the value of their dynastic army is far higher than that of the army of the Zonglan Kingdom, but if you want to take the Yuanhong Pass, you have to break the blockade of the Holy Crossbow and the blockade of the many defensive equipment on the Yuanhong Pass. ”

"The cost will be extremely high, and the casualties of the soldiers will reach a very horrific number. But ......"

After a pause, Gao Shun said: "There is a limit to the Holy Exterminating Crossbow Arrows in our hands, if we can consume the Holy Exterminating Crossbow Arrows in our hands, we will naturally be able to weaken the threat to the Dynasty Army, and their losses will naturally be reduced to a minimum." ”

"General, do you mean that Dong Wuze is deliberately trying to use the army of these two million Zonglan Kingdoms as cannon fodder to consume the Saint-Exterminating Crossbow Arrows in our hands?"

Meng Mingming's face was full of shock, and he said, "Isn't this a little unlikely? That's an army of two million!"

"Two million troops? ”

Gao Shun smiled and said: "In the eyes of the dynasty, the kingdom will always be far inferior to them, let alone two million troops, even if it is three million or four million, as long as they can reduce the loss of their dynasty's army by 10,000 people, they are willing to do it." ”

"This ......"

Meng Naming really didn't know what to say.

The military general instinctively told him that the possibility that Gao Shun said was very small, because for the military general, the army is his everything, and as the commander of the army, if he treats his army like this, the impact will be very, very large, and it is not conducive to his own development.

But after thinking about it, he found that the possibility that Gao Shun said was very high, or he really couldn't think of why Dong Wuze would let the army prepare to attack in this situation.

"Then ......" glanced at Gao Shun, and Meng said, "General, do we still want to order the soldiers to use the Holy Exterminating Crossbow now?"

"Of course!"

Gao Shun did not hesitate and said: "Not only should we use it, but also let the soldiers use the Holy Extermination Crossbow to shoot the enemy as much as possible, and we don't have to worry about the consumption of crossbow arrows!"

For Gao Shun, whether it was Dong Wuze's army or the army of the Liyang Dynasty, they were all threats to Yuanhongguan.

Now that there is a chance to reduce this threat, of course he will not let go of such a good opportunity.

As for the consumption of crossbow arrows, he didn't worry much about it at all.

Because the battle of Chuanping County was smooth, the demand for the crossbow arrows prepared there was not so great, so that the crossbow arrows made by the Southern Yan Kingdom could be transferred to Yuanhong Pass.

This requires that he has already told Prime Minister Xun Yu, and only needs to wait until Xun Yu sends the crossbow arrows through the teleportation array.

In this case, he is not at all afraid of consumption!

"The last general obeys!"

After receiving Gao Shun's order, Meng Naming immediately went down to give an order to prepare the soldiers in charge of destroying the Holy Crossbow.

Time flies.

When the sun set in the west and the faint afterglow shone on the earth, a black torrent of steel slowly flowed over in front of the Yuanhong Pass.

Dong Wuze's army of two million has begun to attack!

"General, what do you think of this Dong Wuze? How could he attack at this time? It is already dusk, and it is almost evening. ”

"This time period is completely unsuitable for the army to attack the city, why did he still choose this time to attack the city?" Meng Mingming wondered.

"Dong Wuze is a smart person. Gao Shun said.

"Smart people?"

Meng Naming was stunned for a moment when he heard this, and when it was getting dark, he used two million troops to attack a well-defended Xiongguan, which didn't look like a smart person's approach, right?

Gao Shun looked at the slowly approaching enemy army in front of him and said, "Dong Wuze knows very well that although Yuanhong Pass is a Xiongguan, it is impossible to perfectly defend the entire city with 100,000 people. ”

So, he chose to attack at this time, and when the time comes, when it gets completely dark, both sides will have their vision blocked. But for the trapped camp, which is already short of the army, the impact is naturally greater. ”

"In this case, his army of two million has the hope of breaking the city, so I said that Dong Wuze is a smart person. ”

"I see. Meng Naming suddenly realized, and he admired Gao Shun even more in his heart, he was worthy of being a general of the kingdom, and he could see at a glance what he didn't see.

Terrible!

"Pass the order, let all the soldiers hold their temper, do not attack first, and wait until the enemy attacks before counterattacking. Gao Shun ordered in a deep voice.

"Yes!"

The people around him quickly passed Gao Shun's order down.

At the head of Yuanhong Pass, the 100,000 trapped camp was dressed in armor forged from fine iron and stone, only revealing their eyes, staring at the approaching army below, all of them holding the strong bows and crossbows in their hands.

If it weren't for Gao Shun's order, they would have released their arrows.

But now, they are waiting, waiting for the attack of the enemy troops, waiting for the order of Gao Shun to counterattack.

"You still haven't released the arrows?"

In the army of the Zonglan Kingdom, Dong Wuze was in charge of the Chinese army, and when he saw the reaction of Yuanhong Pass, his brows furrowed slightly, which was beyond his expectations.

He expected that his army would be attacked as it approached the Yuanhong Pass and came within range of the crossbowmen.

But I don't want to, this is not the case at all now.
