This earth-shattering battle between man and demon is gradually entering the white heat.

In this battle, both humans and demons poured all their elite and strength.

On the human side, because of the time of day, human conspiracy, and the timing of the internal friction of the demon race, the raid on the seven nights.

But at this juncture, Ge Shu was sick. No one knows why, maybe it's sick, maybe it's because of the soil, maybe it's because of old age, maybe it's to escape......

There are no more than four people who know the news of Lao Shuai's fainting - the military food officer Tan Rong, the falconer commander Murong Shaoshang, the demon guard Shen (monkey) Han Tianzuo, and the military medical officer Li Boren

At present, in the tent, all the generals present couldn't help but pinch a cold sweat. At this important moment, the old man actually fell.

At present, the commander of the Second Army, Sun Longqing, has been fighting for a day and a night, and the men are sleepy and tired. And at this moment, the Demon Clan and the main force of the Demon Clan who came to the rescue besieged it forty miles outside the west gate of Seven Nights City. With thousands of people to resist the 30,000 allied forces of the demon race, and the second army is the end of the strong crossbow, this battle can be described as extremely dangerous.

The situation is even worse in the First Military Merchant Enlightenment Department. The battle has been going on for four hours. Now, the first army is trapped at the inner city gate by the demon three-way army, the front road is blocked, and the back road is cut off.

Unable to break out of the encirclement. It was only a matter of time before all the staff were annihilated.

And in order to prevent the imminent reinforcements of the old man of Geshu, the Night Demon Lord even sent the Blood Shadow Yuanlie Ancestor and Sun to lie on the road outside the Seven Nights City in advance, ready to inflict heavy damage on the human reinforcements.

Murong Shaoshang said sternly: "Tan Shuai, since the big handsome body is complaining. Right now, in the barracks, you are the deputy marshal, the highest rank, please quickly order the dispatch of troops to rescue the merchant leader. ”

Han Tianzuo hugged Murong Shaoshang and said, "Brother Murong, I know that your first army is also besieged, and the situation is critical. Seriously, I wish I could save the brothers of the First Army first—but...... But I'm afraid that our army won't be able to hold out for even half an hour, so at this point, please let Tan Ye send troops to save the second army first. ”

Murong Shaoshang turned his face to Han Tianzuo and said, "Brother Han, we were besieged in Seven Night City by the three most elite troops in the Demon Realm, and even the Night Demon Lord personally went to the battlefield to direct the battle. If those adults are killed in the City of the Seven Nights, they will be destroyed. Do you know what to expect? ”

Han Tianzuo turned his head to Murong Shaoshang and said, "Of course I know; I also know that the First Army is the highest combat power of our Demon Slayer Guard, and it is not so easy to be easily eliminated. It's you, who know that if our Flying Cavalry is wiped out, we will be completely annihilated. Then, our crusade is over. This front tooth is extracted, and in the future, thousands of miles of raids, reconnaissance, and expeditions to the demon clan will not be talked about. ”

Murong Shaoshang said angrily: "You also said that the First Army is the highest combat power of our army. Suppose those five adults were killed and eaten by the demons. How many of our secrets are going to be leaked to the demons? ”

"Alright, shut up!" Tan Rong slowly took off his reading glasses, and the current Tan Rong is not at all like the military food officer who was full of energy, resourceful, and confident in his chest.

Instead, he turned back to that - he dared to deal with the traitors and corrupt officials in the imperial capital, and he dared to fight against various underworld forces in the vast pass, and he was still the top wise general who planned to eliminate the demons behind the scenes.

He was the deputy commander of the coalition forces. If the old man is not there, then he is the supreme leader of this army.

He was still him, but he was also tired, tired.

He sat on the handsome desk, looking tired. But, it's more about the pressure.

His eyes were also red, apparently because he hadn't had enough rest for a long time.

Even, compared to Ge Shu, he hasn't had a good rest for a long time.

The man's sideburns were already pale. This year, the man has just passed his forty-fourth birthday, and at his age, Xingshuang will inevitably come too early.

Perhaps, it is because the army hurts the spirits and the thoughts hurt the body. Perhaps, it was also the problem of food and grass that made him too stressed. Maybe it's because he's not ready to take over the army.

No matter what, at this time, Tan Rong instantly aged ten years old, green silk turned into frost, and frost hair was like snow.

- It seems that the battle ahead is not easy to fight.

- It seems that this mess is not easy to accept.

However, his subordinates, these arrogant generals do not understand him and will not let him go. Everyone is still waiting for him to give the rescue order.

Tan Rong walked over, patted Murong Shaoshang's shoulder with his left hand and said, "Shaoshang, you have worked hard, go down and rest." ”

His right hand patted Han Tianzuo and said, "Tianzuo, you are tired." Hurry down and have a full meal and change horses. I quickly sent General Yan Siren to order 3,000 iron horsemen to rescue the eldest grandson. ”

Hearing this order, Han Tianzuo almost cried: "Thank you Tan Ye, the last general will be fine." The last general immediately went with General Yan to save Lord Changsun. ”

As if he was afraid that Tan Rong would regret it, Han Tianzuo opened the curtain of the handsome tent and left. In an instant, there was no trace, and the curtain still fell.

Murong Shaoshang stared at Tan Rong unconvinced; At the end, he exhaled before he whispered, "Tan Shuai, I don't understand." ”

Tan Rong said apologetically: "I'm sorry, I can't help it." His attitude was helpless and deeply apologetic.

Murong Shaoshang said solemnly: "Tan Shuai, give me a reason, right?" In this way, I can also explain to the chief of Shang. ”

Tan Rong pondered for a long time, and finally spoke: "Shao Shang, you are a Qiang person from the hidden city, you should understand. It was not easy to pull up a cavalry unit. ”

When Murong Shaoshang heard this, he suddenly withered in one breath: "What Tan Shuai said is extremely true. ”

This sophisticated alien man understood the meaning of the new marshal's words as soon as he heard it.

Why? Because, war horses eat grass, and do not consume food like soldiers.

Judging from the current production level of animal husbandry technology in Mangguan, the cost of supporting a war horse is far greater than that of dozens of soldiers.

Tan Rong is in charge of logistics supply and demand, and all kinds of accounts of the military and political affairs in Mangguan are recorded in his mind.

As he said, it is not biased in favor of the eldest grandson, but it is well-founded.

First of all, a good war horse must be carefully selected, and not all horses can become war horses.

Secondly, all the war horses that Mangguan Fei rode were excellent breeds of strong and strong - Mangguan horses, which were very expensive in themselves.

Three, although the war horses do not eat human food, they also do not eat weeds, because they are afraid of eating weeds and diarrhea, but eat the best imported forage - hay in the Yebei production area.

Fourth, the war horse not only has to eat every day, but also has to pull out every day to walk in circles, which requires a lot of energy and material resources.

Fifth, the cavalry dominates the battlefield by virtue of the charge that is almost like the courage of a horseman, but relies on its strong mobility to affect the victory of a war, so a cavalry general is needed to lead and command the battle.

In this era, there are no Airborne Forces. The cavalry played the role of a mobile and flexible airborne strike force on the battlefield in ancient times.

Before the start of a war, the cavalry needs to quickly seize the advantageous position, and carry out surprise attacks and instant strikes on the fortresses occupied by the enemy.

Once, in another time and space, Huo Quai, a famous general of the Western Han Dynasty, led a cavalry unit deep into the hinterland of the Xiongnu, like a divine soldier descending from the sky, engaged in battle with the Xiongnu Zuoxian Wang, and annihilated more than 70,000 enemies. Taking advantage of the victory, he pursued and killed the wolf Juxu Mountain, and the soldiers approached the North Sea. After this battle, the Xiongnu were swept away by the Han army in the south of the desert, and the Xiongnu fled to the north of the desert.

Since then: the Xiongnu have fled far away, and there is no royal court in Monan.

But I heard Tan Rong continue to sigh: "A thousand troops are easy to get, but one will be hard to find." The eldest grandson family has been a family of cavalry generals in our vast pass for generations, and if we lose her, even if we have more cavalry in the future, I am afraid we will not be able to form combat effectiveness. Brother, you- understand? ”

Ahem, a coughing sound interrupted Tan Ei. Li Boren, a military medical officer, suddenly said with joy: "Old handsome, are you awake?" ”

Tan Rong and Murong Shaoshang turned their heads when they heard the sound: they saw that Ge Shu Lao Shuai's face was pale and bloodless.

It's like an old father who is about to lose his two children. The palms and backs of these hands are full of meat, and it hurts to lose any of them.
