Chapter 908: General Battle
c_t;???? As Lin Si had expected, when Li Hao died in battle and Hou Jian was defeated, Mi Yuanyun was directly forcibly promoted by Wei Zhong to be the commander of the Shenyan army and appointed as the general of the Erpin Zhengnan. "Co*Fun*Words*Love*First*Fa ()』
For this reason, Wei Zhong even killed two Shenyan generals who spoke out against them on the spot, even if Hou Jian didn't dare to speak out for a while, the Shenyan generals were even more silent.
The first thing Mi Yuanyun did after taking the throne was to send a request for help to Shenyan Country.
To be honest, the overall strength of the Shenyan army at that time was actually above the Gaozhen Longyan coalition army. In any case, they have the support of the sect and occupy the advantage of the master level.
And the combat effectiveness of soldiers is generally above that of high-truth soldiers.
Mi Yuanyun's action of asking for help inevitably lost the face of the Great Empire of Shenyan. But with Wei Zhong's support, who would dare to say more?
This move was soon known by the Gao Zhen army on the opposite side, and for a while, Luo Hou, Guan Rui, Shan Chengye and others were also panicked.
They knew very well that with the strength of the Shenyan Empire, it would not be easy to transfer millions of troops over, but it was not impossible. The reason why the Shenyan Empire didn't mobilize the country's troops before was just that he was worried that the Bilan Empire would take advantage of the weakness.
However, this does not mean that Shenyan really does not dare to do that. It only takes one million more people to come over, and the army of Gao Zhen will once again fall into a comprehensive disadvantage.
Once the Shenyan reinforcements arrived, this battle would be even more difficult to fight.
The top priority is to quickly wipe out the nearly two million Shenyan army in front of him.
On the other hand, Mi Yuanyun began to order people to spread the inside story of the battle of Xianglan City to the opposing army.
More than 100,000 Longyan soldiers were treated as outcasts, and 500,000 Longyan people were burned alive, but these things have never been spread. Both Luo Hou and Yan Gaoyang understood that once this kind of thing was picked out, it would inevitably affect the morale of the army.
It may even cause strong dissatisfaction among the people in the cities behind, who will fear that a similar encounter will befall them one day.
They knew that the inside story of this battle could not be concealed from those who had a heart, and they had been trying their best to downplay the news, focusing on how many Shenyan armies they had exterminated.
But now, Mi Yuanyun has directly spread the news to the outside world on a large scale, and he can't stop it at all.
Just a few days later, even the Korean City where Yan Gaoyang was located had already spread the news that Gao Zhenren had burned Long Yanren to death, not to mention the front-line army?
At this time, among the 1.9 million Gaozhen Longyan coalition troops on the front line, the Longyan army still had 500,000 people.
These people were originally from Fanhe City and Fu'an City, and they didn't know much about the specific situation of the battle in Xianglan City, they only knew that Shenyan was defeated and lost, and Luo Hou fought very well.
And now, when they finally learned the inside story, they can be described as sad and angry.
That's right, of course they hate the Shenyan people, and they certainly want to die a little more. But Gao Zhenren's actions are tantamount to using the bones of the Longyan people as a stepping stone to their victory.
They didn't come to help Long Yan at all, they were just worried that the war would burn Gao Zhen. The life or death of the Longyan people, they don't care at all!
Who dares to guarantee that in the future war, Gao Zhenren will not continue to do this?
For a time, the morale of the Gao Zhen Longyan coalition army was extremely weak. On the first day the news spread, a large number of Longyan soldiers began to quietly take off their uniforms and leave the front line, and nearly 100,000 Longyan soldiers fled to the rear.
And the Longyan soldiers, who stayed in the army and did not leave, also started disputes and even fights with the Gao Zhen soldiers.
Gao Zhenren has completely controlled this army step by step, and they naturally will not tolerate other voices.
Luo Hou ordered the hundreds of Longyan soldiers who escaped and fought, and at the same time strictly guarded the remaining 400,000 Longyan soldiers, which completely ignited the anger of the remaining Longyan soldiers.
Although they could not leave, this army had long since lost the slightest will to fight.
They didn't know whether to hate Shenyan or Gao Zhenren now, and for the first time, they didn't know why they were fighting.
In the rear, towards Hancheng and Fanhe Fu'an City, the crowd was already angry, and many people in Longyan asked Luo Hou and others to give an explanation after learning the truth. What's more, he directly asked Gao Zhenren to get out of Longyan......
However, how is this possible?
Yan Gaoyang was also powerless to suppress this situation, he knew very well that this matter had gone too far.
Luo Hou, Shan Chengye and the others understood that if they didn't immediately defeat the Mi Yuanyun army on the opposite side, they were afraid that they themselves would collapse first sooner or later.
Now the strength of the Shenyan army on the opposite side is comparable to theirs, and they still have the certainty of victory.
As long as Mi Yuanyun's army is defeated, perhaps the Shenyan reinforcements in the rear will not be able to do anything, and they will directly retreat and return to China.
And on top of that, they need a new victory to stabilize the morale of the army.
However, a quick victory was not so easy, and they had to force the Shenyan army to come out from Qing'an City and other cities along the route to take the initiative to engage them.
If it was just a direct siege of the city, not to mention the heavy casualties for the time being, it would be impossible to end the war within half a year.
For this reason, the 1.9 million troops of Gao Zhen and Long Yan joined forces and slaughtered outside the frontline city in three directions. Luo Hou and Shan Chengye did not take the initiative to attack the city, they chose to camp twenty miles outside Qing'an Cheng.
Subsequently, soldiers were sent to Qing'an City every day to provoke, shout, scold and insult, just to provoke the Shenyan people.
At the same time, Luo Hou quietly sent 200,000 troops to bypass Qing'an City by small road and sneaked to the rear of the Shenyan army, trying to cut off the granaries and grain and grass supply routes in the rear of the Shenyan army.
Once the Shenyan army loses the source of food and grass, they can only choose to go out of the city to face the battle, otherwise it will only be more than ten days, and the Shenyan army in the city will be defeated without fighting because of the lack of food.
The Shenyan army has indeed been holding out, compared to the invincibility of the past few years, the Shenyan army at this time seems to be extremely timid and weak.
And the Gao Zhen army is as imposing as a tiger and is strong.
For a while, the whole continent seemed to see the scene of Shenyan's huge empire weakening day by day.
Perhaps, if it weren't for the strong support of Wei Zhong and the generals of the Middle Route Army, Mi Yuanyun at this time would have been overthrown by some Shenyan generals again.
This battle is an extreme nest fire for them. They could also see that Luo Hou was deliberately provoking them out, and their best choice was to refuse to defend the city.
But how long will this last? They are not here to defend the city, they are here to pacify Longyan, Gaozhen and other countries. They have been attacking all the time, how could there have been such a wolf bèi?
Three days later, Luo Hou received a thunderbolt from the sky.
The 200,000 troops who went to intercept the grain failed to destroy the granaries in the rear of the enemy, let alone cut off the opponent's retreat and formed the expected encirclement with him.
His plan to cut off the grain was expected by Mi Yuanyun from the beginning. Before his army reached Qing'an City, Mi Yuanyun had already sent 200,000 troops to ambush in the rear granary in advance.
With mental calculation or unintentional, Gao Zhen's army of 200,000 sneak attacks on the granary was almost completely wiped out.
Luo Hou knew that something was wrong, and now it seems that the other party is deliberately waiting for himself to attack, waiting for himself to sneak attack.
Continuing to forcibly attack the city is just doing senseless casualties, rather than this, it is better to retreat to the rear to build fortifications first, and stop the Shenyan people in the territory of Longyan.
However, on the day when he uprooted the camp and planned to retreat, the gates of Qing'an City were opened, and the Shenyan army came out of the city in a mighty way.
Luo Hou knew very well that the two armies would fight head-to-head in the plains, and the battle would be fierce, but the damage would not be too great.
100,000 men and 100,000 men confronted each other in the open field, and by the end of the battle, the two sides would have at most 20,000 or 30,000 casualties.
The real casualties of hundreds of thousands of people in a war are often ambush battles, encirclement battles, and a rout that has been defeated for thousands of miles.
In that case, the vast majority of soldiers are completely headless flies, and they have no fighting spirit, they only want to escape, and they can't take it.
In desperation, he could only choose to turn back to fight.
And the other party went out of the city, which was originally the picture he wanted to see.
The two sides lined up in formation, and soon the 400,000 vanguard troops of both sides collided head-on.
A bloody battle began on the plain outside Qing'an City, but the result of the battle was much beyond Luo Hou's expectations, Gao Zhen's army quickly gained the upper hand, and the powerful Shenyan vanguard army retreated again and again.
Seeing this, General Gao Zhen went straight into the enemy's Chinese army, trying to directly break through the Chinese army of Shenyan and enter Qing'an City.
Luo Hou has a certain talent after all, just looking at this scene, he knew that there was a deception, and hurriedly ordered the troops to be withdrawn. However, it was already too late, and the left and right wings of the Shenyan army, under the leadership of Gu Zihan and Lou Hai, quickly outflanked the middle lane with lightning speed, cutting off the back road of the Gaozhen vanguard army.
And the 400,000 Shenyan vanguard army that had been defeated suddenly turned around and killed the Gao Zhen army again.
Seeing this, Luo Hou decisively chose to wave his army towards the left and right flanks of Shenyan, which was already empty, trying to defeat the Shenyan army from the flanks.
His tactics cannot be miscalculated, and even the enemy's weaknesses can be regarded as avoiding reality and attacking the enemy's weaknesses. But at the moment when his army had just attacked, there was a sudden earth-shattering shout of killing from the rear.
Countless Shenyan armies came out from the rear of the Gaozhen Longyan coalition army, and when they looked at it, they saw the overwhelming Shenyan army flags in the rear. A rough count shows that there are no less than one million!
"The second city of Fanhe Fu'an has been captured!"
"All Longyan soldiers, surrender without killing!"
"You wait until the grain road is broken, don't surrender quickly!"
The voice of the master in the late stage of the Heavenly Realm after he was full of spiritual power spread almost throughout the entire battlefield, and Luo Hou was shocked when he heard this.
How is this possible? There are already more than 1 million Divine Flame troops on the other side, how can the other side still be able to mobilize a million troops? Even if the other side has this kind of troops, how can the other side not get any news if the million-dollar army is mobilized?
And Fanhe pacified the two cities, he was not careless, and he has always kept it smooth. Just this morning, I received the situation over there!
How could the other party suddenly take down there in just two hours? and then kill all the way to Qing'an City?
This qiē seems to be impossible to achieve at all.
But it dawned on him.
"This is the other party's trick! Don't fall for it!" he shouted as he poured his spiritual power into his voice.
Yes, it's a ruse.
The million army in the rear is probably only more than 100,000 at most, but the front line is sparse enough, and the military flag has been deliberately increased tenfold......
However, at this time, the two armies are fighting, who has the leisure to investigate the truth and truth?
There is absolutely no problem with Fan He pacifying the second city, the other party deliberately said this, just to mess with his own military morale!
In this kind of general battle, once the morale of the army is disturbed, and the soldiers only think about escaping, the consequences are simply unimaginable, and maybe there will be a big rout in the next moment!
Yes, Luo Hou is not a mediocre general, but it is a pity that he can see through this qiē, but it does not mean that others can.
When fighting, many soldiers fought with a pure spirit of blood and bravery. And once the situation is not good, it is normal to run away.
At that time, the superior general wanted to command, but he was also powerless
