Chapter 219: The grass and trees are all soldiers, and the wind is loud
A quarter of an hour later, under the urging of Temujin and Han Xin, the army of the Western Route rushed out of the valley at a rapid pace.
The first thing to do after running out of the valley is to count the people and the wounded, and as for the dead in battle, they must be clearly registered.
"Back to the marshal, the Beast Legion lost fifty-six people, three hundred and eighty lightly wounded, two hundred seriously wounded, and the rest were unharmed.
The mage legion suffered 625 casualties, 1,520 lightly wounded, 816 seriously wounded, and the rest were unharmed.
The Mechanical Corps suffered 490 casualties, 782 minor wounded, 15 seriously wounded, 275 destroyed machines, and 98 to be repaired. The rest are unharmed. ”
After listening to the report, Temujin and Han Xin's brows furrowed at the same time. They found that Cao Cao's primary target was not the mage legion they thought in their hearts, but a mechanical force that was slow to move, had poor defense, and had mass destruction in the battle.
"General Han, there are tens of thousands of people in my army on the West Road, and the current damage is only skin trauma, but it can't withstand the toss one after another. If Cao Cao launches another sneak attack on the next trip, this will not be a good thing for the morale and morale of our army! ”
"Great Khan, I don't think Cao Cao will ambush us anymore and launch a surprise attack. After the first two rounds of competition, we know a lot about his tactics. If he's going to launch a third surprise attack on us, it's going to be a tactic that will definitely send him into his own nightmares and a splitting headache. Han Xin's right hand stroked the hilt of the sword, and the thumb of his left hand rubbed his index and middle fingers back and forth, as if he was calculating something.
"It's good that General Han is confident. But Cao Cao is not Xiang Yu, not Liu Bang, but a generation of heroes. After reading his life story, I felt that he was an opponent worthy of my respect. For this reason, I deliberately went to Chang'an City to block him and have a good time with him.
The atmosphere of the banquet was good. He is funny and knowledgeable, and is not quite what is described in the sources. During the banquet, I originally wanted to use more of his words, but as the atmosphere heated up, I was overturned by him more and more.
At the end of the banquet, looking at his back as he left, I was thinking about today's events at that time. After thinking about it for a while, I realized that the enemy I least wanted to meet was him, and the person I wanted to work with the most was him. ”
"Great Khan, after listening to your words, I don't think you seem to have much confidence in the future of our coalition forces! Together, our trio has more than four times as many troops. Even if the soldiers were divided into three routes, each of them was more than twice as strong as the soldiers and horses he led.
As long as we move steadily and steadily, I don't believe that Cao Cao can still eat us in one go. Our Western Army has a Beast Legion in close combat, a Mage Legion in distant combat, and now we have a cavalry legion led by me to join.
It can be said that the combat capability of our Western Route Army far surpasses that of the Central Army and the Eastern Route Army to a certain extent. The mechanical legion seems to be unable to play a role, but when it really comes to Cao Jun's camp, the mechanical legion is like a dragon swimming in the sea, and the phoenix is proud for nine days. ”
Temujin smiled and did not answer. Han Xin said that he understood, but what he said had to be developed to that point. However, will the elusive Cao Cao let his wishful thinking come to fruition?
"Prime Minister, after receiving your message, the last general led more than 1,000 people from the bow and arrow battalion to this place. After surveying the terrain, it was found that the only place to set up an ambush was a bush 100 meters away. Do you think you want to send someone to set up an ambush now? ”
"But, set up an ambush at once. They're coming soon. Remember, the arrows in the quiver should be shot in the shortest possible time. Remember, immediately after shooting, follow the route that Lone told you earlier. ”
"No!" Tai Shici has opinions about Cao Cao, but he will never abolish the public for personal reasons in the execution of military affairs.
"Knock knock", the sound of neat steps came from far and near. Temujin and Han Shin were at the front of the line. On both sides of the ranks, the cavalry flickered forward and backward, turning into scouts, constantly scouting the surroundings.
The bushes where Tai Shi Ci set up an ambush were the focus of the cavalry's reconnaissance. They stabbed their spears into the bushes in no order. Luckily, the bushes were a metre high. Otherwise, even if the archers do not let out a cry of stabbing, they will be exposed by the blood of the spear.
Narrowly and narrowly avoiding detection, the prostrate archer exhaled, and then hurriedly calmed down and prepared for battle.
The troops that had halted their advance moved forward again when they saw the cavalry returning.
"Put!" Tai Shi Ci shouted vigorously, and at the same time, shot the arrow in his hand at Temujin.
Temujin, who was also a master of archery, felt the edge of the arrow the moment Tai Shici took the arrow. "Defense!" He only had time to shout these two words, and then he turned over and dismounted.
"Whew...," a dense stream of arrows poured down from the sky. The dense arrows were like a black curtain, covering the clear sky.
"Ding Ding Ding..." the sound of the shield blocking, "Puff puff puff...", the sound of the arrows of the officers and men of the army, "Shiver Shiver..."
The twenty-five arrows in the quiver were shot quickly and fiercely by a thousand good bows in one minute. The rain of tens of thousands of arrows made the army led by Temujin and Han Xin feel dizzy and unstoppable for a while, not to mention Temujin, who was taken care of by Tai Shici.
"Withdraw!" Tai Shi Ci did not go to check the results. He knew that if they did not evacuate immediately, they would be captured and killed.
Han Xin's war horse was hit by an arrow, and he himself was unharmed. Compared with him, Temujin is a little embarrassed, who made him the object of Tai Shici's key care? After his war horse was robbed for him, he fell to the ground at this moment, and he was crying for his life.
"Guard the surroundings, rescue the wounded, count the number of people!" Temujin was heartbroken by the death of the warhorse, but he could not tolerate his grief at the moment.
Twenty minutes later, a set of numbers arrived in front of Temujin and Han Shin. Hearing this set of numbers, Han Xin was so angry that he almost recited it. What's this called? The mage legions didn't lose that much in the valley! How could it be that in this short round of arrow rain, nearly fifty percent of the casualties were killed!
"General Han, I feel it is necessary for us to ask for reinforcements. Although it is only three things, who can be sure that Cao Cao will not give us a fourth blow? I always felt like there was a pair of eyes on us, and our every move was under his watchful eye. ”
"Reinforcements are needed, but our momentum must not be weak. You know, I'm in an awkward position, and if I had been as free as you, maybe my tactics wouldn't have been like this, but would have been stationed in the same place as you had thought before. ”
"If you break constantly, you will be disturbed. Don't think about it so much, I'm going to have something to do. The order was given that the whole army was stationed in place, and the cavalry was responsible for guarding the surroundings. Temujin no longer hesitated and gave the order decisively.
However, just three seconds after his order was given. Hundreds of black-clad assassins with athletic skills and speed as the wind suddenly appeared in the army.
Instead of attacking the seriously wounded and lightly wounded, they focused on taking care of the remaining combat power in the mage legion.
Blood splattered, and screams came and went. Mages are not battle-hardened warriors, and in the field of close combat, they are really ordinary people, not even a beginner recruit.
"Withdraw!" At the sound of an order, the assassins who came by surprise broke into pieces and broke through in all directions.
Originally, these assassins would not have infiltrated the army so easily, and then, they left easily.
Who let them choose the time when the last round of attacks is over and the vigilance of the whole army is at the bottom?
Temujin smiled bitterly, he glanced at the bushes in the distance, and then said with a slight depression: "The grass and trees are all soldiers, and the wind is loud. I didn't think I would go through it. I didn't expect it to be like this. ”
