Chapter 235: The Grim Reaper Killed from the Swamp
Preparing for a war is never easy, and the sheer number of enemies alone is enough to cause headaches, not to mention crossing a swamp in a no-man's land.
This is a tough battle, especially when the town guard cavalry cannot be dispatched and only the Si family army is followed.
However, this battle cannot be left unfought, and Great Xia needs to test where the opponent's bottom line is, and it also needs to fight tentatively before the enemy's reinforcements come.
And this battle is very important, if it is won, it will inevitably be like a rainbow, and it is impossible to say that the power of victory will swallow these enemies head-on.
But if you lose, then I'm afraid the rest of the life will be really difficult, morale is very important, especially when the other party has a clear advantage in numbers.
Looking at the opening of the Si Jiajun, Zhao Yun narrowed his eyes, and then said to the partial generals beside him: "You are in charge of this place for the time being, I will go with the Si Jiajun, no matter what the battle situation is, don't be careless." ”
Zhao Yun is a legendary realm powerhouse, he can play a great role in the army, now it is a sneak attack, the more masters the better, and this battle is related to the morale of the future, compared to waiting here, Zhao Yun feels that with his own strength, he can do a lot more.
"The general can rest assured, his subordinates guarantee with their lives, and there will never be any problems in Dongjiang City. ”
The general nodded, his expression serious.
Because of the terrain, the town guard cavalry could not pass through the swamp with the Sijia army, and if it attacked from the front, with the other party's sensitivity to human aura, it would undoubtedly be equivalent to death.
Si Jiajun left, they opened in the dark, and before the whole army attacked, Si Long and Zhao Yun flew to the route of the army to reconnoitre, in case they were known in advance by the other party's scouts.
After all, the Nether Lizard Clan, every clan is the best spy in life.
......
It was late at night, and in the imperial study room in the imperial palace of the imperial capital, Su Chen and the ministers of the Military Aircraft Pavilion were looking at the battle report on the eastern frontier in their hands.
Si Long and Zhao Yun naturally sent the general report to Su Chen's imperial desk through special channels before the action, and looking at the action report sent by Si Long and Zhao Yun written in his hand, Su Chen's brows were also furrowed.
"It's too risky, and while the success rate of a surprise attack from the swamp is high, if they can't settle the battle and retreat within an hour, then they're really dangerous. ”
Sima Yi looked at the battle report in his hand and said.
"In extraordinary times, this battle must be fought, but judging from the information transmitted by General Si Long, in the face of this Nether Lizard Clan, it will be very difficult to fight head-on, and it will be very difficult for our troops to move, and many military strategies cannot be used. ”
Liu Bowen also said with some concern.
"Where has Bongxiao gone? It's been so long since the secret letter was sent, he should be leaving, right?"
Su Chen looked at Zhu Ji and asked.
"Returning to the emperor, judging from the information sent back by Lord Guo, it is estimated that he should be almost in Dongjiang City by now, and at the latest, before dawn, Lord Guo will definitely be able to arrive. ”
Zhu Ji said respectfully.
"Zhuqing go back to rest first, I'm afraid I won't be able to rest well for a long time in the future, and I ordered to go down, the transfer of grain and grass and the recruitment of recruits need to be hurried. ”
"In addition, I sent a message to General Bai Qi, I don't have time to wait for Li Yu to slowly persuade the surrounding forces, seven days, I give him seven days, as much as he can convince, and then let them go directly to Dongjiang City. ”
Su Chen's tone was slightly angry.
Over the past few days, Bai Qi has "persuaded" many forces with Li Yu around Great Xia to fight against foreign enemies, but some forces seem to feel that they are very important to Great Xia, and they actually talked to Great Xia about the conditions for sending troops.
It's as if Great Xia couldn't face the Winged Terran without them.
At first, Su Chen was just too lazy to pay attention, but later, these forces that thought highly of themselves began to be a little fearless.
Not only did they not want to send troops, but they even had to ask Great Xia to provide them with a lot of resources and costs free of charge, otherwise they would not let Great Xia's army pass through their territory.
In the face of this naked threat, at first Li Yu only thought that more things were better than less, and wanted Bai Qi to inform Su Chen, let Su Chen satisfy them, and wait until the war was over.
For this kind of thing, Bai Qi didn't even inform Su Chen first, but directly took Li Yuanba as the vanguard, and the entire Great Xia Iron Army swept away all the disobedient small races and small countries with a completely crushing attitude.
And it was precisely the few battles with Bai Qi's tough attitude that made other forces who wanted to sell at a price become honest one after another......
......
The swamp is as the scout said, it is full of miasma, and the stout dead trees have grown here since they began, and since they entered the swamp, Si Long and Zhao Yun have not seen a living creature except for their own people.
The entire swamp was filled with an unpleasant and pungent smell, which made Si Long and Zhao Yun even more afraid of this swamp.
"The scout's information isn't entirely accurate, there's a distinctly rotten smell in it, and it's not a tree, there's definitely a creature in it. ”
Zhao Yun said after glancing around vigilantly.
"Well, I'm afraid they didn't see any creatures here when they first came in, so tell the whole army to be careful, and make the planks on the swamp floor as wide as possible. ”
"If you don't bring enough wood, you can cut down the surrounding trees, but be careful when cutting and pay attention to the abnormalities around you. ”
When the war starts, think about retreating before you advance, this is the war thinking that Si Long and Zhao Yun have discussed a long time ago.
It is important to deal a heavy blow to the other party, but with the current strength of the Si family's army, it is absolutely impossible to eat the opponent's three million troops.
After all, on the battlefield, the quality of the soldier is important, but the quantity is also important.
Therefore, at the time of the operation, the two had already discussed that they would open a road from the territory of Great Xia by laying wooden planks and marching in a straight line.
"Be careful not to use the aura in your body as much as possible, and cut down and pave the road in a rotational manner. ”
The general called Wang Wu kept instructing.
Without the use of aura, the soldiers are nothing more than powerful mortals.
"We are not far from the target, and in another hour at most, we will be able to cross this swamp to the rear of the other side. ”
Looking at the map in his hand, Si Long said solemnly.
Without the time limit, although the speed of Si Jiajun's march was not too fast, it was not slow.
"Well, get ready for battle, let the soldiers rotate again, and when you get out, you and I will kill the other party's leader first, and then let the sergeants fight quickly. ”
Zhao Yun squinted his eyes and looked ahead and said, "An hour, an hour must be resolved quickly." ”
More people is more strength, the Si family army is very well prepared, with their tacit cooperation, this swamp did not bring much threat and damage to the army soldiers of Great Xia.
The biggest problem is that because the aura can be isolated in the swamp, everyone does not dare to use the aura in their bodies and simply use the power of the body to cut down trees.
But fortunately, all this is still in Si Long's control.
Looking at the faint light of fire that appeared at the end of the swamp, Si Long squinted, and then shouted loudly: "Fight quickly, Si Jiajun, invincible!"
"Si Jiajun, invincible!"
"Si Jiajun, invincible!"
With the roar of everyone in the Si family's army, this army, which had spent a full seven days and worked hard to cross the swamp, at this time, one by one, like the god of death rushing out of the swamp to ask for their lives, swarming towards the Nether Lizard Clan......
