Chapter 211: Battle Reports and Calculations

The next morning, Zhou Chuan got the results of Huo Quai's yesterday's battle, and he was immediately overjoyed, and immediately called Qi Jiguang.

After Qi Jiguang saw it, he was also very happy, and said: "Although this Huo Qubing is young, he is really powerful, he has achieved such a huge result, and his real loss is less than three thousand, this kind of ability, even the last general has to say admiration!"

Zhou Chuan laughed secretly in his heart, the famous wolf in Chinese history was sick, is it a simple character?

If you want to talk about ability, Huo Qubing in history may be inferior to Qi Jiguang in terms of force, but in terms of cavalry, he is definitely stronger than Qi Jiguang.

Now that he has been summoned by himself, it only takes time to come, and Huo Quzhi's strength realm will become extremely strong!

"Your Majesty, now that Huo Qubing has killed the enemy's 100,000 iron cavalry again, and there are only about 500,000 enemy cavalry left, I think we can launch a counterattack!" Qi Jiguang said loudly.

Zhou Chuan groaned slightly, and said: "The counterattack is about to be launched, but it must be well planned, the lessons of the enemy in front must not be forgotten, and to cross the Gobi Desert, there must be enough planning." ”

"What Your Majesty said is very true, if our army wants to cross the Gobi Desert, we must have a good enough plan, otherwise we may be attacked by the enemy half-crossing, but ......"

Looking at Zhou Chuan, Qi Jiguang smiled and said, "Your Majesty, the minister has already thought of a way that can be implemented. ”

"Oh?"

Zhou Chuan was a little surprised, but immediately asked, "What way?"

"Your Majesty, didn't we discuss it before, saying that if the enemy wants to come from the edge of the Gobi Desert, then attack again, we will face great trouble, after all, the speed of the cavalry is extremely fast, even if there are city defense crossbows and crossbowmen, they may not be able to completely block it. Qi Jiguang said.

One of the reasons why Zhou Chuan was able to achieve such a big victory before was that they were equipped with a large number of bows and crossbows and city defense crossbows with huge lethality, so that the enemy's iron cavalry could not rush over.

But there is another reason that the enemy's iron cavalry still comes directly from the Gobi Desert, and the cavalry speed in the Gobi Desert cannot be exerted to the extreme, so as to be able to inflict such damage, otherwise even if the final victory is won, the results will not be so great.

Zhou Chuan is very clear about this.

He nodded, looked at Qi Jiguang and said, "That's true, go on." ”

"Your Majesty, now we can use this method to counterattack the enemy!"

Qi Jiguang said: "As long as we can charge from the edge of the Gobi Desert, so that the Gobi Desert has no way to stop the speed of the army's march, and let our army cross the Gobi Desert, the last general will be confident that he can lead more than 200,000 soldiers under his command to defeat all the enemies." ”

When Zhou Chuan heard Qi Jiguang's method, he did not answer immediately, but fell silent.

Qi Jiguang's method is not impossible, the edge of the Gobi Desert has little sand, and it is very shallow, so the soldiers in his hands can rush over at the fastest speed.

In addition, the enemy did not have enough crossbows for city defense, only bows and crossbows, which could kill and wound some soldiers, but could not stop the army from crossing the Gobi Desert.

However, after crossing the Gobi Desert, there were still 500,000 iron horsemen on the opposite side!

Even if there is Huo Quai's illness in the rear, the final result is difficult to say.

Even if Qi Jiguang is powerful in cavalry, it is impossible to kill hundreds of thousands of enemy troops without much consumption, which is completely impossible.

In an army of hundreds of thousands, it is very difficult to kill even the enemy's main general.

Even if he succeeds in the end, the iron knights under his command will definitely suffer heavy losses.

This is a very difficult thing for Zhou Chuan, who has not many troops, to accept.

Qi Jiguang saw Zhou Chuan's face groaning, and hurriedly said: "Your Majesty, this is an opportunity for us, now the news that the enemy's 100,000 iron cavalry has been killed must have reached the enemy's military camp, and it will definitely be a big blow to their morale." At the same time, the news that Chengbei Pass has been taken by us can also be spread into the enemy's military camp, in this way, their morale will definitely be low, we can take advantage of the situation to take it in one fell swoop, we can't hesitate!"

Zhou Chuan looked at Qi Jiguang and said with a smile: "General Qi, your method is indeed feasible, but I want to modify it." ”

"Revision?" Qi Jiguang was a little puzzled, looked at Zhou Chuan, and asked, "Your Majesty, how to modify?"

"Have you forgotten that your method is to charge from the edge of the Gobi Desert, that is to say, the Gobi Desert is completely vacant, if we pretend to be defeated and the army flees, do you think the enemy will chase and kill?" Zhou Chuan said with a smile.

Qi Jiguang was stunned for a moment, then his eyes lit up, and he said, "Definitely!"

"Tian Jealous suffered such a big loss at our hands before, losing nearly 600,000 troops, he must be eager to kill us all, if we are beaten at this time and 'run away', he will definitely send a large army to chase and kill us. Once pursued, their iron rode into the Gobi Desert, which was enough for Tianjealous to eat a pot. ”

"That's right!" Zhou Chuan nodded and smiled: "This is what we have to do, whether it is successful or not, we will not lose anything." If you fail, you can think of other ways. ”

"The last general will send someone to prepare!" Qi Jiguang said immediately.

"Good!"

Qi Jiguang immediately retired.

Watching Qi Jiguang leave, Zhou Chuan muttered in a low voice: "It seems that Qi Jiguang is not like those records, saying that he is in the army!"

Although there are many documents in history that Qi Jiguang said that he was in charge of the army, it seems that today Qi Jiguang is still very clear and willing to accept the opinions of others.

In the enemy's camp opposite the Gobi Desert, Tian Jealousy looked at the dozen or so soldiers kneeling in front of him with a gloomy face, they were all soldiers who had been sent out to the north of the city before, and now, one by one, the army was defeated, and there were less than a thousand people left!

"Where is your general?" asked Tianxian coldly.

These figures trembled, and they said in fear: "Will ...... The general has died in battle. ”

"Hmph, it's cheaper!"

Tianxian snorted coldly and said, "If he dares to return to the barracks, I will definitely break them into pieces!"

100,000 iron horsemen, less than two days after going out, there were less than 1,000 people left to return to the camp, this loss, jealousy and heartache, very heartache.

You must know that his current strength is no longer more than a million troops before.

"Marshal Heavenly Jealousy, Huo Qubing led the iron cavalry to our rear, which means the ...... of Chengbei Pass" The words of the natural disaster were not finished, but his eyes were very worried.

Tian Jealous knew what the natural disaster thought, he waved his hand to let the soldiers retreat, looked at the natural disaster, and hesitated: "Military advisor, Zhou Chuan really has such a ability to take the Chengbei Pass?"

The natural disaster smiled bitterly and said: "If I didn't believe it before, but everything that has happened now makes me have to suspect that the Chengbei Pass has been taken, and the scout who was killed by you before did not lie to us!"

"But...... How is this possible?"

Tian Jealous said: "The Lord of the Holy Sect Headquarters is a Feng Shui Master of the Yuan Dan Realm, the formation he arranged, even if it is the Great Elder, you are not so easy to break, Zhou Chuan is really in his hands, can he break the formation?"

The natural disaster sighed lightly and said: "Who knows about this matter, but now it seems that this is indeed the case, otherwise it is difficult to explain why Huo Qubing led a small number of cavalry to fight head-on with the 100,000 iron cavalry we sent out, it must be to help the people above Chengbei Pass, guard Chengbei Pass, and prevent us from sending a large army to recapture Chengbei Pass!"
