Chapter 701: Mountains of Bones
The Bailan Kingdom is a kingdom with many families, and Lu Feng's entry into Bailan City will undoubtedly affect their interests.
Not every family will be as indifferent to private soldiers as the Meng family.
This time Lu Feng was ready, if these people took advantage of Gao Shun's opportunity to leave the city with the trap camp and wanted to fight their own ideas, then don't blame him for killing them all.
Some things are generally seen under the butcher's knife.
......
In front of the hillside where Qin Qiong led his troops.
At this time, after a great battle, the corpses of the soldiers killed in the vanguard army of Fan Haosheng were everywhere under the slope, and there were countless ones.
Densely packed on the ground, one on top of the other, it looked like a hill of corpses.
"Is this Fan Haosheng crazy? I don't care so much about the lives of these soldiers?"
Qin Qiong stood in the military formation, staring at the corpse like a hill at the bottom of the hillside, her brows furrowed.
In less than an hour, the vanguard army under Fan Haosheng lost at least 100,000 people!
But even so, Fan Haosheng still did not order to stop the attack, on the contrary, he still ordered the soldiers to rush up one after another, trying to break through Qin Qiong's blockade.
"General, we have consumed nearly half of our arrows, and if we hold on for two hours at most, we will have to engage the enemy in a short fight. The deputy general came to Qin Qiong's side and said in a deep voice.
During this time, the soldiers under Qin Qiong's command also suffered losses, because Fan Haosheng ordered the archers to fight back.
However, because only archers counterattacked, and the enemy army never attacked, the losses were not large, and the total number of people did not exceed 5,000.
But their bed crossbows, arrows, and arrows were consumed too quickly, and some of them couldn't hold on.
"Order the army, don't save, and inflict as much damage as possible on the enemy!"
Qin Qiong said without hesitation: "Now we must kill the enemy's courage, only in this way can we gain the upper hand when we meet in a short battle." ”
"In addition, the scouts sent by Ben should have arrived at General Meng Tian soon, and after he learned of the situation, he would definitely immediately send a large army to support, and we only need to hold this hillside to win. ”
"The last general obeys!"
The adjutant general hurriedly went down to give the order.
Qin Qiong looked at the enemy troops rushing up from the hillside again, his eyes were solemn, he didn't know when Meng Tian's army would arrive.
But Fan Haosheng's follow-up army has arrived, if it weren't for the fact that the terrain on this hillside is not suitable for a million army to attack together, maybe Fan Haosheng would have pressed the million army a long time ago.
Under the hillside, Fan Hao's competitive Chinese army chariot.
Fan Haosheng and several generals stood here.
"General, order the withdrawal of troops, we must rest, otherwise not only will we not be able to break through Qin Qiong's military formation, but too much loss will also hit the morale of the rest of the soldiers. A general looked at Fan Haosheng with an anxious face.
Fan Haosheng said coldly without hesitation: "We must not withdraw our troops!"
"If we withdraw our troops now, it will delay time, Meng Tian can think of letting Qin Qiong lead a large army to surround us here, then he must have already made arrangements. ”
"If we delay for too long, and wait until Meng Tian's reinforcements arrive, then our army will be gone, and it will be impossible for the main force to retreat!"
"We have to take down Qin Qiong in one go!"
"But ......"
"No, but!"
Fan Haosheng interrupted the general's words, and said in a deep voice: "Rong Shiyun's situation has already come to report, the Ermen camp is being attacked by Meng Tian, and it won't last long, our time is running out!"
At this moment, the generals on the chariot stopped talking, and they also smiled bitterly in their hearts, no one thought that Rong Shiyun's 600,000 army had lost the camp in a very short period of time.
Although the defense of the only Ermen camp is stronger, it is also limited, and it may not last long before it will be breached.
When Meng Tian broke through Rong Shiyun's Ermen camp and led the army of the Southern Yan Kingdom to support them, they would really be finished.
At the moment, the only way to do this is to use human lives to consume Qin Qiong's bed crossbow and bow and arrows, after all, the enemy army has traveled a long way here, and the military supplies they bring with them will definitely not be too much.
As long as Qin Qiong's army has no crossbow arrows, with the army under their command, it is very simple to break through the military formation.
......
Not far away, the troops led by Liu Ji and Meng Zhiwu were stationed in one place.
"Lord Liu, why don't the army continue to move forward to rescue General Qin Qiong?" Meng Zhiwu looked at Liu Ji with some doubts.
Just now, the army was originally marching in a hurry to support Qin Qiong, but Liu Ji ordered the army to stop advancing.
This made Meng Zhiwu a little puzzled.
The soldiers are fast, what is the matter with stopping the advance now?
Liu Ji shook his head slightly and said, "General Meng, do you think we can support Qin Qiong as soon as we bring this 200,000 army over?"
Meng Zhiwu said directly: "It's impossible now! Fan Haosheng's army must be attacking General Qin Qiong's army at this time, and if we go over now, at most we can attack the rear of Fan Haosheng's army." ”
"But Fan Haosheng I understand, although he is a little conceited, but his ability is not weak, he will definitely think that our reinforcements may arrive, so he will definitely arrange elite soldiers to guard in the rear, if we arrive, the effect will be ....... ”
Meng Zhiwu didn't finish speaking, but he suddenly understood what Liu Ji meant.
The army is now in the past, and it is of little use, because it cannot be attacked by surprise.
Once the reinforcements on this side are blocked by Fan Hao's competitive rear army, the Chinese army and the front army fighting in front will definitely increase their attack, and the pressure on Qin Qiong's side will be even greater.
When the time came, the reinforcements not only did not play the role of reinforcements, but instead became a catalyst to stimulate the fighting spirit of the enemy.
"Lord Liu, what are you going to do now?"
Meng Zhiwu looked at Liu Ji and asked.
To say that he was a little disdainful of Liu Ji, one of the five strategists under Lu Feng, before, but now he has no such thoughts.
How can it be so simple to be able to see through the existence of these things at a glance?
"I have already asked people to send my strategy to General Qin Qiong, he will definitely act according to my strategy, our side only needs to let the army rest well, and when the time is right, we can move our troops. Liu Ji smiled faintly.
Meng Zhiwu glanced at it, and thought in his heart, it seemed that Liu Ji had already thought of a way to deal with Fan Hao.
However, he thought for a moment and asked, "Lord Liu, now the road leading from here to General Qin Qiong's camp is full of scouts from Fan Haosheng's army, are you sure you can pass the news over?"
"If Jinyiwei has no ability at all, how can he be called Jinyiwei?"
Liu Ji was not worried, and said, "You go and let the army rest, we are about to move." ”
"Yes!"
Meng Zhiwu didn't ask any more questions, and immediately went down to make arrangements.
On the other side, Qin Qiong, looking at the endless stream of enemy troops below, his face was even more solemn, and he could see that Fan Haosheng really wanted to break through his military formation at all costs!
