Chapter 278: Chen Ren's eagerness

Even if the Zhou Mansion is trapped, the Zidi Army can make an emergency response in a short time. As long as the Zhou government can hold out for more than three days, there is no worry that the siege will be insoluble.

The Zidi Army and Anning County, as well as Jiang Chao, have long ceased to be the existence that can be slaughtered.

It's just that this time the siege of various forces in the world has been successful, and there are probably not many people in the world who dare to move the tide of the river.

Because, even if Jiang Chao is not there, the Zidi Army can sweep the present, who dares to move Jiang Chao behind the scenes of the Zidi Army. Isn't that looking for death!

The stronger the army, the safer Jiang Chao will be! This is exactly what Murong Zhiqing asked Dongli Ying to do. Murong Zhiqing is laying out for Jiang Chao to enter Beijing.

On the other side, Chen Ren, under the instigation of Ye Luqing, began to move closer to the mountain village. An army of 50,000 marched in three directions. Even the dense forests on both sides have been taken into account.

He was afraid that there would be ambushes in the dense forests on both sides, which was a good idea. Although, the army of children is only 4,000 to 5,000 people. But who knows if there will be a sneak attack from behind.

In the event of a sneak attack, his army would be chaotic, and perhaps 50,000 men would be defeated directly. Chen Ren is not a straw bag, otherwise, it would not be possible for Zheng An to value it.

The army on either side numbered 10,000 people, and in the middle was 30,000 troops.

In this way, the 30,000-strong army drove to the first line of defense in front of the mountain village. No ambushes were found on either side.

Of course, Dongli Ying couldn't be stupid enough to let Chen Ren find the elite soldiers who had been ambushed in advance. The 20,000 elite soldiers had already hidden in the mountains, waiting for the fireworks to strike at any time.

It was impossible for Chen Ren's army to see the army of children hiding in the dense forest, and it was impossible for the army on both sides of him to find the army of children at all.

However, in order to prevent sneak attacks on both sides, Chen Ren's forces on both sides did not retract, but guarded on both flanks.

Such a formation can be changed at any time, and when the middle lane is attacked, the troops on both sides can also encircle the middle lane and encircle the attack.

When he reached the first layer of defense, Chen Ren saw thousands of soldiers on the entire line. There were almost 4,000 subordinate troops, all of whom were guarding the defensive line.

Dongli Ying commanded the second line of defense, and the first line of defense was handed over to the Southern Ming Expedition. This is one of the warriors from the Yelang clan whose strategy is on par with Dongli Eagle.

Jiang Chao promoted him, at first he studied with Dongli Ying, and now he can completely stand alone.

Chen Ren stopped the army in front of the first line of defense, and looked at the line in front of him, his face showed a look of astonishment.

There were more than 4,000 soldiers on the defense line in front of him, and there were so many barbed wire fences in front of the defense line that almost all of his marching routes were blocked.

Even if he had 5,000 cavalry, he couldn't break through the barbed wire fence in front of him, and it was estimated that he might let these barbed wire fences stop him as soon as he rushed closer.

He couldn't tell it was barbed wire, and even if it was, it was a rope, and with so many ropes, the war horse couldn't spread it.

Unless you remove the fences in front of you, it is impossible to use the cavalry charge.

Moreover, there were 4,000 children in front of him. This made Chen Ren a little incredulous, didn't he say that the total strength of the Zidi army was only 4,000!

Could it be that the subordinate army knew that they were coming, and deliberately transferred all their troops here to make a final desperate fight.

Thinking that the subordinate army may send scouts, Chen Ren feels that it is not an exaggeration for the subordinate army to behave like this, after all, the 50,000 army is coming, if it does not attack with all its strength, the entire backing village may be finished.

Thinking that as long as the army in front of him was completely annihilated, he could drive straight into the mountain village and capture the mountain village, Chen Ren's eyes swelled with joy.

He gave orders to his troops, and the shieldmen and infantry began to advance, wanting to remove the fence in front of him before using the cavalry to charge.

Like a cavalry charge, almost a round trip can solve the children of the mountain village.

Chen Ren didn't have no troops to rest, as soon as he came, he started fighting, he wanted to take the mountain village as soon as possible, he couldn't wait to see everything in the mountain village.

Soon, with the cooperation of the shield soldiers and the infantry, they had advanced to a place dozens of meters in front of the position of the subordinate army. Seeing that they were about to make a charge.

Suddenly, the mortar bamboo thunder on the side of the disciple army blasted out. The place where the amazing bamboo thunder hit was the shield and infantry phalanx that rushed to the peak.

Combined with the phalanx, there were more than 4,000 people. Although the formation is not dense, it is relatively close.

A round of bamboo thunder thundered down, and there were heavy casualties in an instant. Most of the soldiers were so frightened that they turned around and fled, and the brave ones rushed forward.

It's just that when they just rushed to the fence in front of the position of the children's army, the firearms of the children's army were suddenly aimed at the Pingle army that rushed up.

Before these Pingle troops could react, bursts of fire crackers rang out, and the Pingle army, which had just rushed not far from the position, suddenly all fell.

As soon as the first round of the charge began, the Pingle army lost nearly a thousand people, and they didn't even touch the hair of the army.

This situation made Chen Ren a little dumbfounded. He didn't expect this to be the result, he originally thought that under the charge of 4,000 shield infantry, he would be able to destroy some fences.

No matter how bad it is, there are soldiers who rush to the enemy's position and throw out their fire mines, although the power of such fire and thunder is not as strong as that of the army, but the lethality is definitely there.

But who would have thought that this would be the result. He looked at the subordinate army in astonishment, and looked at his subordinate army indifferently on the position.

Looking at Yeluqing on the side again, he finally understood why Yeluqing's 10,000 people were killed so quickly. You can't even break through the position, so how can you attack!

Compared to long-range combat power, there is no way to compare it on your own side, unless it is with siege equipment. But he came on a hurried march, and he did not prepare siege equipment at all.

Besides, there was only a position in front of him, but there was no wall to capture. As long as you can take the position.

But the key problem is that if he wants to take the position, he can do it, but he has to be able to attack the front of the position. With more than 4,000 shield infantry combined, more than 1,000 corpses were lost and retreated.

Then what forces are there to break through the defense line of the Disciple Army?! He looked at Yeluqing again and gave up his plan to study Yeluqing.

If Yeluqing knew how to break through, it is estimated that he would have broken through a long time ago, and he would not have been so miserable that all 10,000 troops were sent here.

At this moment, Chen Ren looked at his archery array, which had more than four thousand archers, but they could attack from a distance.

They are ranged in their own right, and this is where they come in handy.

He hurriedly issued an order to the archers of the archer array.
