Chapter 681: Prepare for Battle
In the north of the northern mountains, the soldiers of Tianlong were hurrying, and suddenly a bow and arrow flew out of the forest, and the soldiers panicked and raised their swords to block, but many people still fell to the ground with arrows.
The two remaining Dragon Legion operators opened fire, bombarding twice, and the mage also instantly used a protective skill to the attacked soldiers.
After a few more shots in the woods, silence was restored, and a group of soldiers carefully entered the forest with their shields, and after a while dragged out several corpses.
Zhiyun sighed: "All that the enemy suffered before has been returned to us." When they were chasing us, we also attacked them here, and as long as the road was close to the mountain, they would definitely appear, and they would run away after the fight. ”
Chu Jingyun said: "But they will be blown up, we won't." Our people attack farther away. ”
"What's the use, we still die more. The effect is the same, slowing us down, we can only search all the way. But our soldiers searching in the mountains can't keep up with us, and we have to wait for them, so we have to walk slowly. Before they waited, someone had to die. ”
"What then?"
Zhiyun thought for a while: "Since this is the case, let's go slowly, our side will no longer try to establish military merits, and let them go back to the royal city to fight." I really didn't expect them to dare to do this before, but now it seems that the princess guessed correctly. ”
"We need to send more people back. ”
"Well, that's right, as long as you can make sure that there are enough people here to chase them. At night, I ordered people to retreat, and the Black Bear Legion ran back for me. ”
Chu Jingyun said no, if you want to go back, you have to ride a horse and use a carriage, and you can't run back. And there are no horses and carriages on this mountain. When the time comes, there will be fewer horses, and the enemy will definitely know that he is going back.
Zhiyun said that it was okay, as long as they couldn't find it at night, they would have to go into the mountain most of them at night. Tomorrow, even if they find that there are fewer people and know that Tianlong is retreating, they will not be able to change their plans, and they will not be able to contact the people who have entered the mountains, and they will not be able to get them back. There are only two news birds in the army, the troops are so scattered, and ordinary commanders don't even have information beads, how can they contact them.
And when the time comes, they won't be worried, thinking that Tianlong has found out too late. When the time comes, the rest of them will go into the mountains in the open. At that time, everyone ran back together.
The mountain road is close, but it is difficult to walk, especially at night, which means arriving a day later than them. As long as there is a reciprocal retreat, there will be no problem, with the Black Tiger Legion and the Celestial Dragon Legion, there is no pressure to hold their advance troops. Don't have any worries, the most fearful thing about war is not being prepared, everything is ready, there are no problems.
As he spoke, several cloud bird warriors flew in from the sky: "My lords, the enemy has set up a position thirty miles away from the high slope ahead. ”
Zhiyun said that he knew, and Feng Tianmao asked to go and fight, right?
Zhiyun said: "Thirty miles, walk slowly, be careful on the road, when you arrive at the place, it will probably be evening, fight remotely, there is a high slope, we will not impact." The large army of the Shenlong Legion withdrew, then use the cloud bird to throw hands and throw mines, anyway, it is not within their range, they don't even have a trick to fight our cloud bird warriors now, and they stop fighting purely because they are unwilling to go any further, waiting to enter the mountain at night. Satisfy them, kill 3,000 people this time to achieve the goal, not greedy. ”
Chu Jingyun said that after this battle, the cloud bird warriors made great contributions.
Zhiyun said yes, they gave wings to firearms, isn't it amazing? Tell the officer in charge of the communication next to him: "Pass back where the enemy is, if you want to fight easily, our side must cooperate closely, and they need to know where the enemy is entering the mountain." ”
"Yes" The interrogator summoned him on the spot, and Luo Bai next to him spoke: "Mr. Zhiyun has the opportunity to come to my Xuantian to talk about the battle, Mr. doesn't have to wait for the palace order to know how to cooperate with that side, it's really powerful." ”
Zhiyun laughed: "General Luo, can I ask you a question?"
Luo Bai asked him to speak.
Zhiyun asked, "During the battle in the East China Sea, what did the Xuantian National War Office do?"
Speaking of this, Luo Bai was embarrassed: "It seems that he didn't do anything, he just got nervous, our sixteenth prince was a little naughty, and he didn't even want to report the battle situation to us seriously." ”
Zhiyun said with a smile: "The sixteenth prince left with the King of Longshan, then I will also say two words to him, he dares to do this, which shows that he has absolute confidence in the person who commanded on the spot, and dare to ask who was in command at that time?"
"Do you still need to ask, your princess, our Jade King. ”
"That's it, I'm afraid there is no greater victory than the battle in the East China Sea, why does Xuantian need me to preach, if you have time, the Lingyu King will go back and tell you about it, as long as you don't forget to bring her advisors." ”
Zhiyun's meaning is very clear, don't come to ask me, ask Xiang Bei.
Luo Bai chuckled: "Wisdom is not afraid of much, Mr. and Mr. Xiang are both powerful people, and it is best to invite them together." ”
"There's time to bother. Zhiyun didn't refuse much, there was nothing wrong with the battle, and he was not interested in staying at home all day, Xuan Tian was a big pond, and there was no harm in going around. Make an appointment in advance, and someone can take care of the meal, so why not.
It was easy on their side, and in front of them, the coalition forces also stopped.
Zuozhi and Hua Xi stood on the high slope, and Zuo Zhi told Hua Xi: "When the battle starts, they will not fight in close combat, and they will not enter the range of our bows and arrows." From what I have observed these days, the real power of their firearms is the debris produced after the explosion, which is the biggest cause of our casualties. The debris is broken up in the air, and when the time comes, everyone is ordered to lie down and disperse as much as possible. Lie on your stomach in a low-lying area with stones. ”
Hua Xi asked, only to be beaten and not fight back?
Zuo Zhi said of course not, after tonight they will enter the mountains, the horses are useless, all the cavalry will be turned into infantry, and when the time comes, all the horses will dismount and disperse, leaving only a small number of people to drive them, and more than 8,000 horses will rush into it, which will definitely cause chaos among the enemy, and there will be a large number of deaths.
Hua Xi asked if it was a pity? It was a war horse, the soldier did not die, and the war horse was sent to die, this kind of thing was probably difficult for everyone to accept, and the cavalry and their own horses had feelings.
Zuo Zhi also looked helpless: "Is there any other way? We have entered the mountains, and the horses must be left to the enemy, so that they can ride our horses and rush back to the royal city to fight us? Give all the horses a night's sleep, and not a single horse can be captured, including you and my golden zebra, and kill them equally." ”
Hua Xi couldn't bear it, but still nodded: "That's the only way, this is a way to give up." ”
Zuo Zhi said: "We have already given up the way to retreat, and we should not think about any way back at this time." Don't be a woman's kindness, don't have any intention of retreating, my soldiers are more dead than yours, but I will fight to the end. ”
"Listen to you, you are more suitable to command than me, and you will command this battle. Hua Xi admitted Zuo Zhi's ability and understood that this product was a ruthless character, much stronger than himself, and more suitable to be a general in the army.
