Chapter 152: A Strategy to Reduce the Enemy's Morale
Long Aotian and Zen Master Xuezhai also saw a wall of white flowers rolling from the sky.
"It's a water attack!" one soldier exclaimed, "Oh no!"
Long Aotian immediately shouted: "Idiot, this place is open, and it is far away from the river, what effect can the water attack have?"
But Long Aotian soon realized what the effect of the water attack was.
He's a smart guy, so he doesn't have to wait for the effect to play out before he thinks about it.
The roaring white wall of water, running along the field, is indeed gradually slowing down and scattering.
It is impossible for such a current to drown a person.
However, the current position of the coalition army is slightly lower than that of the Shentang army.
When the cold water rushes in, it accumulates in this low-lying area, and the soft soil turns into a muddy cloud in an instant.
The soldiers who were already tired for the first time, their calves were soaked in the cold water of the skull in early spring, and many people couldn't help but shiver.
The battle suddenly became exhausting.
"This ...... How the are you fighting!" one of the soldiers scolded angrily.
I'm not even afraid of death, I shouldn't be afraid of mud, I'm not afraid of cold.
But what if you don't have much will to fight in the first place?
Many times, all that is needed is an excuse.
The stalemate battle has taken too many lives, and it has also taken away the patience of the Shenxiao soldiers.
Ahead, the enemy army is like a mountain.
Underfoot, muddy as the sea.
Further, taking a step back, it's like fighting with ghosts and gods.
The water on the soles of the feet is cold.
And the fighting spirit that was ignited before seemed to have been extinguished by this cold river.
"No matter...... I'm going home!" Someone began to roar.
The person who spoke was actually from the last team in charge of supervising the battle.
In the rear, some soldiers fled silently, while others fled in anger.
The shadow of the evening sun casts on the dusky muddy water, and it looks more and more brilliant.
If deserters appear in the rear, they will inevitably spread to the whole army.
"I'm not wrong. Su Mengzhen looked at the coalition forces that began to disperse, and smiled at Su Guang.
"Father's clever calculation, unparalleled in the world!" Su Guang was sincerely admired.
Because the terrain is not suitable for water attacks, the enemy is completely defenseless.
Only the strategy issued in the blind corner of the mind can be truly counted as a last resort.
Using cold cement to slash the enemy's combat power is like adding more weight to a hundred, which makes the already tired Shenxiao Army even more sad.
Once someone's psychological defense line collapses, it will inevitably affect the whole body.
"It's time. Su Mengzhen slammed the command flag: "Ahead! Onslaught!"
Like tigers descending from the mountains, the priests of the temple led a bustle and pounced on the enemy who was stuck in the mud.
The Shenxiao heavy infantry who formed a phalanx still stood still, sticking to the cold muddy water.
Their sense of honor as veterans makes them still fight to the death in such a situation.
But the Three Rivers Army at the front was different.
Li Zhong's death caused their morale to plummet, they were pushed to the front line to be cannon fodder, and their repeated defeats made their eyes gloomy.
It was like a stream of cold water falling from the sky, destroying their last fighting spirit.
From the gap in the formation of the Shenxiao Army, the Three Rivers Army began to flee one after another.
Li Xun was shocked and tried to stop and stay.
"Please hold on for a while...... Li Xun muttered, "Hold on for a while, and you will win......"
"No more...... We can't die here......" The deserters also cried: "Young master, we also have wives, children, and old halls!"
"We have to live, we have to support our families, and we can't let our families become starving ......"
"I'm sorry, we can't stay here anymore and fight such a hopeless fight......"
"I'm sorry, young master!"
Seeing that the Three Rivers Army had broken and fled, Li Xun's pale little face became more and more bloodless.
Long Aotian's cousin, the little princess of Shenxiao Dao, and Feng Shushuang, dressed in a pink shirt, stood silently behind him.
In the last battle, she confronted Li Xun and reprimanded the people of Mikawa for their cowardice and lack of loyalty.
Now that the Three Rivers Army has fled, the Shenxiao Army will be forced to deal with the Shentang Army, which is nearly twice as large as its own.
She should have been even more annoyed.
But looking at Li Xun's pale face, her pupils full of despair and unwillingness, she couldn't say anything to hurt his heart.
"You...... I did my best. I believe in my cousin and Master Xuezhai, they will definitely have a way. Feng Shushuang's voice trembled, and she comforted softly.
Li Xun's eyes seemed to have tears swirling.
But not a single tear flowed.
On the day his father died, blood flowed from his eyes.
The tears must have dried up by then.
Li Xun swore that he would never shed any more tears in this life and this life.
Long Aotian's third brother, Long Hui's body, was also trembling.
"Fifth brother, Dao Master......" Long Hui plucked up his courage and said loudly: "Have you seen it, this battle can't be fought at all! You are taking the lives of Shenxiao's disciples seriously!"
Long Aotian looked at him coldly.
"Collect the troops...... Long Hui said loudly: "The morale is about to collapse, and I can't fight anymore! Go back, I can still cultivate and recuperate, and raise troops again, I can't cut off all the combat power of Shenxiao here!"
Long Aotian snorted and suddenly burst out laughing.
"You idiot!"
"The rhythm of the war has not left my expectations, and the victory plan is still in my hands! There will be a turning point soon, and if you make any more words that shake the hearts of the army, don't blame me for ignoring brotherhood!"
Long Hui was stunned, only thinking that Long Aotian had lost his mind and gone crazy.
"I'm sorry. Long Hui's eyes widened: "My part can't hold it anymore." It's your business to win, please let me leave with my troops!"
Long Hui's soldiers, everyone was drenched, their battle clothes were messy, and their expressions were depressed.
But there is an unstoppable homesickness in his eyes.
Looking at this posture, if Long Aotian refused to let them retreat, they would simply mutini and fight hard with Long Aotian.
"Good, good, good!" Long Aotian angrily rebuked: "You coward, you and the soldiers under your command are cowards!"
"Let's go, remember one thing, if I win this battle, you have to give me your most precious thing!"
Long Hui was stunned.
But he only thought that his younger brother was completely mad because he was defeated again.
How can such a defeat be reversed?
A fire of ambition suddenly ignited in his heart.
Long Aotian's other brothers are all dead, except for him.
If Long Aotian dies in battle, he will return to Changsha and establish himself as the lord of the sky.
Then let this stupid brother kill himself.
"Okay!" Long Hui also said categorically.
Long Aotian turned his head and watched Long Hui and his subordinates flee backwards in the mud.
He gave a disdainful sneer.
beat the drum again in person, shouting like thunder: "My Shenxiao boy, I will not retreat!"
Zen Master Xuezhai still has a solemn appearance, although his face is very pale.
He fought with the white army waves, and both were defeated.
Zen Master Xuezhai flew to Long Aotian's side and said in a low voice, "Use the last hole card." ”
Not only the Three Rivers Army and the Longhui Army, but also the left flank, the right flank, and the middle army have gradually deserted, and although the formation is barely intact, it is slowly collapsing.
The mud would also slow down the attack of the Shrine Army, otherwise the collapse might only take half a cup of tea.
Long Aotian gritted his teeth.
He pulled out a firework, only to hear a loud bang, and the brilliant light rushed into the sky.
It's evening, and the sun is still bright, but the brilliant colors of the colors still look clear.
In the south, on the slope of the road, in the city of Miyagi, Okamoto Nobu, who was in charge of securing the back road, was taken aback.
He knew that it was time for the last reserve he had led to come out.
This means that the war situation is already extremely unfavorable.
In order to block the southward invasion of the Shindo army, after Okamoto Shinshin entered the Dao Miyagi Castle, he built many Luzhai arrow towers on the slope of the Ran Ran, forming a strong defense line.
With Okamoto's order, five hundred soldiers poured out of the city or from the deer village, mounted the prepared healthy horses, and galloped towards the north.
The Lord who delivered them.
They are also the last hope for turning defeat into victory.
These horses are not of the same breed and cannot be used in mounted combat, but they can help in marching.
Galloping like a raging tide.
"God bless the sky. Gang Yuan asked Cangtian and said in a low voice.
