Chapter 514: The Battle of the Grassland Kills Ten Thousand Soldiers
The three of them shook their heads again and again when they heard this, and now the wind and rain are shaking, if Shen Haobin pulls the troops to Hukouya, Shenghongling and other places, maybe they still believe it, but on this flat prairie, and in the case that the enemy is superior in both cultivation and numbers, it is undoubtedly a hundred days of dreams, and the three are all veterans of Liu Jiajun, and they can only obey the orders of this new major general.
"What is the young general going to do?" asked Zhang Tao, the defender of the Fire City.
"Withdraw troops. ”
"Ahh
"Luncheng guard Dong Xi listened to the order. Shen Haobin stood up.
"In. The old general stepped forward.
"Luncheng is temporarily under my command, there are only 3,000 people left in the three cities, and all the rest are withdrawn to Xuncheng, and the heavy troops are placed in the city tower of Xuncheng, and all the gunpowder mountains and stones are moved to the city tower, making the illusion of fighting to the death in Xuncheng and Phantom Ren. ”
Dong Xi hesitated for a moment, sighed lightly, and then replied, "Yes." ”
"Without further ado, you do it immediately, remember that each city only leaves three thousand people for me, and I still have to discuss matters with Xue Ping and General Zhang Tao. ”
After General Dong Xi evacuated, Shen Haobin continued to order: "Zhang Tao, the guard of the Fire City, listens to the order. ”
"The end will be. ”
"Fire City is the closest to Xun City, so there should be no war, you take your soldiers to cut down more than a meter of grass for me first, and you must deliver it to Lun City and Wind City before dark. ”
"Yes. Zhang Tao replied, and then asked, "What is the use of the young general asking for grass?"
Shen Haobin smiled.
"Remember to cut the grass, and it must be more than a meter long, you go sit now, I can be useful after dark. ”
After Zhang Tao retreated, Xue Ping, the guard of Windy City, asked, "Young General, what will you do?"
And so on. ”
"Wait?" Xue Ping looked at Shen Haobin.
"Yes, waiting for Zhang Tao's green grass to arrive, Phantom Ren has a flexible mind. I've analysed his tactics, and there's only one word, and that's fast. ”
Xue Ping nodded.
"That's true, whether it's attacking Xicheng District, or the Thirteen Cities and the cities near Liaocheng, he is scattering his troops and doing it quickly. ”
"Therefore, I want to bury all the 10,000 horses and horses in his vanguard army in Windy City and Lun City, so that Huanren knows that even if there is no person with high cultivation in the Holy Warring States, the military soul of the Liu family army is still there. Shen Haobin raised his head and looked at the top of the hall, knowing in his heart that in this first battle, he could use the enemy's heart to win all, but the future battles would become more bitter.
Phantom Ren divided the army into six groups, and successively advanced to the north of the city, at this time his cultivation can be described as extremely high, but when he walked out of the illusion, he understood some truths better.
He fought many times with the soldiers of the Holy Warring States Liu Family, but rarely saw the surrendered Liu Family's Army, although the Holy Warring States declined, but there seemed to be a strong spiritual pillar to support, he understood more that in order to become a king, to move to the powerful Red Jade Cottage, not only to improve his own cultivation, but also to have a strong team support, to have a group of people loyal to follow. Of course, Lu Yun, who led the leading army, was the talent he cultivated.
He kept listening to the battle report, and after the army from all walks of life entered the Beicheng District, it was like no one, not to mention the resistance of the army, even civilians could not see a single person.
"Report to the Phantom King, the latest military situation of the Holy Warring States army is all concentrated on Xuncheng, and there is a state of fighting to the death with us. ”
"Fantasy King, my army is unhindered all the way, and it is approaching quickly. One by one, the soldiers came to Phantom Ren and knelt down one after another to report.
Huanren smiled, if Beicheng District really fought a decisive battle with him in Liaocheng, he was still very happy to accept it in his heart, he opened the map, and also knew that this time Cao Guowei appointed an unknown young man as the commander of the resistance to their army.
"Where is the Lu Yun army now?"
"We're almost there. ”
"Huo told Lu Yun, in Hukouya and Shenghongling, slow down the march for me, if it is in these two places, resulting in casualties among the army, let him come to see him. ”
"Yes. As soon as the herald stood up, and just as he was about to leave, Phantom Ren said, "Wait. ”
The herald turned around, and Huanren continued: "If it is Hukouya and Shenghongling, the enemy has not set up an ambush, and after attacking Huocheng, tell him to stop attacking the city and wait for follow-up reinforcements to arrive. ”
"Yes. "The herald is leaving.
The Phantom Renbu army was rigorous, and the six troops echoed each other from afar, and any one of them was ambushed, and they could arrive within an hour before and after, forming a counter-encirclement.
Phantom Ren continued to command the soldiers: "All cities, even empty ones, are hung with the flag of our army. ”
"Yes. All the soldiers replied in unison, a smile on Phantom Ren's face that seemed to be a smile but not a smile, he believed that he had the strength to recover the entire Holy Warring States including Nancheng District and Dongcheng District as quickly as possible, but he knew that the biggest enemy was the Hongyu Cottage that had been hidden behind him.
After Lu Yun, the vanguard of Phantom Ren, received the military order of the Phantom King, the army went through many inquiries and maneuvers, slowly passed the tiger's mouth, and the two natural dangers in Shenghongling were instantly relaxed, although it was the vanguard army, and he planted the army's military flag all over 2o cities, but he did not encounter any resistance at all.
"What holy warring states, what Liu Jiajun, I think they are all timid rats. Lu Yun said to the soldiers with a smile.
"Yes, I'm not tired of fighting, but I'm a little tired of rushing the army. ”
"It's still our Phantom King who is a great deterrent. ”
The generals were gossiping, and another general said: "However, the battle report said that the Holy Warring States want to fight to the death with us in Xuncheng, and I am afraid that there will be some killings in Xuncheng." ”
"Haha, the king has given an order, let us repair in the fire city after we capture the fire city, wait for the reinforcements to arrive, and attack the city together. Lu Yun laughed.
"That's very good. The general chimed in.
"Brothers, there are still the last three cities, and when we plant the flag, we can rest. Lu Cheng turned to the soldiers and said.
"Report, General Lu, Wind City and Lun City are empty cities, and the Fire City in the distance is only guarded by a few thousand people. A soldier reported,
"Finally, there is a battle to be fought. Lu Yun smiled, and then divided two groups of men and horses, respectively to the Windy City and Lun City, with the military flag, wanting to plant the military flag on the two cities, and he led the army directly through the vast prairie, preparing to attack the Fire City.
Under the tower of Luncheng, hundreds of soldiers, under the leadership of a general, held a military flag with the word "phantom" written on it, and swaggered towards the city tower.
Shen Haobin smiled in the grass, and laughed in his heart, this Lu Yun is also too deceitful, only a few hundred people are here, and it can be announced that the entire Lun City has been breached, but it can't be blamed, because the 28 cities in front of him are indeed empty cities.
"Archers prepare, shoot all these hundreds for me. ”
"The archers are ready. ”
Shen Haobin smiled.
"Kill. ”
In the grass near Luncheng, thousands of bows and arrows were fired at the opposing soldiers in unison, and after a round, more than half of the opponent's casualties were killed, and Shen Haobin pointed the big knife forward again.
"Keep attacking. ”
After all, there are only a few hundred people on the other side, and after a few rounds, the corpses of their companions are overturned, and there are no less than 1o people who can stand.
"Withdraw, withdraw. The general who led the other party shouted loudly, and the military flag in his hand was thrown on the ground.
"Major General, if you don't kill it. A young general asked.
"Ordered to stop the attack and let them go. Shen Haobin smiled.
"Why?" the young general was puzzled.
"It's easy to kill people, if you don't let them go, it's not fun in the future. ”
The military order was like a mountain, although the soldiers were puzzled, but they could only watch the remnants of the opponent's defeated army flee.
At the same time, the army led by Xue Ping in Windy City also hid in the grass and attacked the hundreds of people who came here, the only difference was that all these hundreds of people were killed, and none of them survived.
"General Lu, we were ambushed in Luncheng, if it weren't for our high cultivation and fighting our way out of the encirclement, I'm afraid we wouldn't be able to see the general. The generals who escaped from Luncheng came to Lu Yun's army with an embarrassed face.
"Didn't you say that it was an empty city, where is the enemy?" Lu Yun was shocked, although he was on the prairie, as far as the eye could see. However, carefully analyzing the geographical location of these three cities, sealing them in them like a pocket, although the army behind him will arrive in an hour or so, but at present, he is still alone, he does not dare to be careless, let alone march to attack the fire city directly.
"The soldiers of the other side suddenly appeared in front of them like ghosts. The defeated general didn't dare to say anything, and he didn't see the enemy's figure at all.
"General Lu, what now?"
"Du turned back, and the army attacked the city of Lun. Lu Yun no longer dared to intersperse the prairie, all the way unimpeded, suddenly encountered a fight, his heart was still bottomless, heavy troops attacked Luncheng, on the one hand waiting for reinforcements, on the other hand, not to fall into the enemy's encirclement.
However, on the way back, the vast grassland encountered the attack of the opponent's sword rain from time to time, the more concentrated the troops, the more serious the casualties, the key is the flat grassland, these soldiers of the Liu family army are really like ghosts, and they can't see the shadow of the other party at all.
A strong wind blew, and when Lu Yun's troops followed the grass where the enemy was shooting their swords, they only saw the grass being thick. These troops, who had never been defeated by Phantom Ren's invincibility, were timid. Many of the soldiers sat on the prairie with their butts on their butts, not daring to move.
However, the bows and arrows of the Liu family army hidden in the shadows seemed to be inexhaustible, and they kept shooting and strangling, and the green grassland was dyed with blood, and the more the other party's soldiers did not move, the more they were like live targets.
At this scene, the beads of sweat on Lu Yun's head overflowed, even if he had a good cultivation, but it seemed to be useless, could it be that this was Dongzi's organ again? If this is the case, I am afraid that his life will be lost, even cultivators such as Huanren cannot break through Dongzi's mechanism, not to mention him, watching his soldiers trample on the corpses of his soldiers, and tens of thousands of troops are in chaos.
"Withdraw. "Perhaps the only way out is to retreat.
When he fled back to Shenghongling with the army and the second force, he counted the number of troops, and the tens of thousands of troops were already less than a thousand, and the most shameful thing was that he didn't see the enemy army.
