Chapter 695: Lost Freedom

At noon on the first day of the first month, four hours after the start of the battle, Hanfeng Pass was declared to have fallen under the fierce attack of the enemy's 50,000-strong army.

The enemy troops from central China crossed the mountains and crossed the rivers, and appeared in a steady stream on the land of the capital, and the camp of Hanfeng Pass was surrounded by regiments.

Zhao Yigang and Lei Heng led 8,000 elite soldiers to fight their way out of the encirclement, leaving a useful body to plan for the future.

On the side of the navy, five thousand Canglong elite warriors faced the dragon slaying army, but they could not gain the upper hand.

Although the Canglong Group has the advantage of battle formations and weapons, the average realm of the warriors of the Dragon Slaying Army is much more than that of the Canglong Group.

With the capture of the Cold Wind Pass, Baili Chonglou led 20,000 Daye troops to kill, and the Linhai Navy was defeated, and under the cover of Qin Zheng launching the God of War Decisive Sanzhongtian, he was forced to retreat to the north of the capital area.

The Coalition Army was completely defeated and retreated, however, the eastern capital was captured by the Storm Army with lightning speed, and the south and west were all covered by the men and horses of the Sealed Bluestone.

Everyone had to retreat to the northern mountain forest area.

With the withdrawal of the Coalition Army, the Fengqingshi troops occupied most of the land in the capital area.

Immediately afterwards, the technicians who followed the soldiers began to arrange the signal shielding tower, Yulong Pass, Hanfeng Pass, Lifeng Valley, and Beijing, starting from these four points, the signal shielding tower gradually approached the northern United Army, and narrowed the range and increased the signal wave density.

The remnants of the Combine were all forced into the northern mountains and forests, and they lost all means of communication, and they were surrounded by the troops of Feng Qingshi.

This fierce war lasted for two days before it finally gave people a chance to breathe.

Now the combined army has been forced into the mountains and forests, not only has it lost its material supplies from the capital, but also has lost the means of communication, and the entire combined army has been completely dispersed, and in the case of losing the means of communication, tens of thousands of people are scattered in the mountains and forests within a radius of tens of thousands of square kilometers, just like sprinkling a handful of mud and sand in the Yellow River.

In front of the military formation, Feng Qingshi looked at his thousands of soldiers and couldn't help sighing.

And in his hand, he also held a stack of casualty statistics reports sent by various units.

At the beginning of the war, Feng Qingshi gave an order to defeat the combined army in the first battle with an incomparably rapid attack, but it was necessary to give the combined army a chance to retreat, otherwise, those dead brains were likely to fight back to the death and fight to the death.

In fact, just like Feng Qingshi's arrangement, when the combined army saw that the general trend had gone, they retreated one after another in order to preserve their vital forces.

Feng Qingshi's troops seemed to be pursuing, but in fact they didn't really catch up, but only drove away, in order to drive the combined forces into the encirclement drawn by Feng Qingshi.

In the pursuit battle, the Feng Qingshi Army also mainly grabbed supplies, and rarely rushed up to fight with the combined army.

Despite this, this battle, especially in the early stage, was still extremely tragic.

In order to seize the Yulong Pass, the Qiang soldiers went forward one after another, fearless of death, and sacrificed 8,000 people, and among the victims, more than 90% of the corpses had multiple fatal wounds.

This shows that they did not give up the fight even after receiving a fatal wound.

Otherwise, they would not have been able to capture the Jade Dragon Pass so quickly, it can be said that the achievement of the capture of the Jade Dragon Pass was completely the Qiang people's life in exchange.

The Cold Wind Pass is also extremely tragic, and on the side of the Fierce Wind Valley, there are countless casualties on the hundred-mile front.

The Combined Army and the Central China Army were almost consuming each other's numbers at the cost of one life for another.

After this battle, more than half of the Zhongzhou army was damaged, the dragon slaying army sacrificed nearly 2,000 people, and the 30,000 Daye army of 100 miles of heavy buildings was left with 15,000 people after repeated battles.

The 20,000 Hongjia troops in North China were almost wiped out, and the 20,000 Wind Shadow Army of Burning Red Leaves also suffered heavy casualties.

In this battle alone, the total number of casualties among the troops in Central China was close to 100,000.

The casualties of the combined army were also as high as 80,000, and the reason why the combined army lost and returned with fewer casualties was because they took advantage of their geographical advantages in the early stage to kill many people in Feng Qingshi.

Feng Qingshi's strategy is correct, if they attack with the whole army, completely block the survival of the combined army, and fight to the death, then even if they win the victory and completely destroy the combined army, their own side will suffer heavy losses, and even only a part of the remnants of the cold group may be left.

Originally, the plan to attack the capital during the winter truce was a bold plan made by Feng Qingshi.

Not to mention that the four major families are already tricky enough, coupled with the help of Qin Zheng in the Linhai region, they already have the strength to fight against Feng Qingshi.

What's more, the troops on the front line of the Fengqingshi Ancient Martial Realm can't all be transferred back.

Now, Feng Qingshi has used several grand strategies to completely seal the combined army in the mountains and forests north of the capital, and blocked the communication signal, so that the combined army cannot communicate with each other, and it is basically a sure victory.

And the losses of the Fengqingshi troops, although they have exceeded the expected value, this is already much better than a strong rush.

Now, it is only necessary to block the way out of the combined army, and gradually use elite troops to enter the mountains and forests to exterminate individual troops scattered in the mountains and forests, and the combined army can be slowly consumed.

In addition, the supply line of the combined army has also been cut off, and there are only two choices that can be made now, one is to sit back and wait for death, and the other is to rush out and die.

Feng Qingshi has almost won a big victory in the war with the combined army, and as for the elimination of the remaining combined army, all that needs to be considered is the matter of pay and time.

If you have plenty of time to wait, you have less to lose because you can act more cautiously.

And if you don't have too much time, you will have to pay more losses, but it will definitely not be greater than the losses at the beginning.

Now that the Coalition Army has lost communication between its various units, it is difficult to gather together again, and in addition to the great defeat, the capital has also fallen, and the morale of most of the troops has dropped to the lowest point.

In addition, they were driven away by the Fengqingshi Army for two days in a row, and everyone was exhausted and lightheaded, and sometimes when they walked slowly in the mountains and forests, they would fall asleep unconsciously.

And in the capital, in the underground room of a small military base, two women are being imprisoned here.

Although they are imprisoned, the treatment is still good, and they are provided with good food and drink for them to live, but they are not allowed to contact the outside world or go out.

And the identities of these two people are really not small.

One of them is Han Xing, the political commissar of Long Xiang, the strongest special forces in China, except for the dragon leader Fang Yunjian, the whole Long Xiang is the largest and the second leader of Han Xing, so it goes without saying who she is locked up here, except for Fang Yunjian personally giving orders, no one dares to close Han Xing.

The other is Qiu Yu, codenamed Mei Xin, the only member of Long Xiang's Dark Blade Department, and also the strongest warrior in Long Xiang now except for the dragon's head, a soldier king-level figure.

These two people offended Fang Yunjian because they strongly proposed to let Fang Yunjian send troops to fight against Feng Qingshi with the United Army before the war, so they were imprisoned here, without worrying about food and clothing, but they lost their freedom.
