Chapter 526: A Little Blow
The night passed peacefully.
At three o'clock, the Banqibang team set off.
As soon as he set off, Huang Ling received a message from Marshal Zebra: "All soldiers, move forward quickly, and enter the expeditionary force today, and you must not slack off!" ”
Huang Ling smiled, and then gave the order: "The Sixth Legion listens to the order, today to enter the expeditionary force, follow me forward, and must not retreat!" ”
Then he commanded the Sixth Army to advance quickly and rush in the direction of the mountains to the north.
An hour and a half later, the soldiers of the Banqibang army saw a wall of the city that had appeared a few miles ahead.
The wall was not very tall, but it stretched for more than ten miles, connecting the mountains on the east and west sides, blocking the path of the Banqibang team.
When Marshal Zebra, who was at the forefront of the First Coalition Army, saw the towering city wall, he immediately ordered the entire First Coalition Army to charge, wanting to sneak into the city.
However, the officers and men of the 3rd Coalition Army of the Expeditionary Force defending the city easily blocked the sneak attack by using the moat and various defensive facilities outside the city wall, and confined the 1st Coalition Army of Banqi State to 200 meters in front of the city wall.
Marshal Zebra of the First Coalition Army of Banqi State saw that the sneak attack was unsuccessful, so he ordered the First Coalition Army to line up in battle formation.
And the battle formation of the First Coalition Army is the same formation that was stationed last night.
Therefore, Huang Ling led the Sixth Army from the back to the front, and the First Army of the First Coalition Army, which had failed to charge just now, was in the front.
Soon, the First Army of the Second Coalition Army also came up, lined up to the right of the Sixth Army of the First Coalition Army led by Huang Ling.
After another quarter of an hour, the Sixth Army of the Second Coalition Army also came up and lined up to the right of the First Army of the Second Coalition Army.
In this way, the four regiments at the front were exactly the four at the front when they were stationed last night.
With the four vanguard legions in place, the Lord of the Banqi Bond, the two Coalition Marshals, and the four Coalition Lieutenant Marshals all came to the front of the ranks.
The mountain eagle of the expeditionary force had already been flying around the city wall, and when they saw the lord of the Banqi State coming out, they laughed and said: "Hahahaha, Your Excellency, you have already tacitly surrendered to the Xishan State, why did you come with the team again?" Do you want to go back on it? ”
The lord of the Banqi Nation said, "You bullshit, when am I going to surrender to you, when have I ever tacitly surrendered to you?" ”
"Hahahaha, Your Excellency is angry. Didn't you directly say a few days ago that you would surrender us and join the Jinshan Divine Kingdom? Have you forgotten? Shanying said with a smile.
The lord of the Bangchi Bond said, "Are you dreaming? Today, our Banqi Bang team is going to completely annihilate your Xishan State Expeditionary Force. The soldiers listened to the order, attacked in an all-out way, stepped on the wall of the Xishan State Expeditionary Army, and eliminated the Xishan State Expeditionary Army! ”
With the order of the lord of Banqi Bang, the four legions on the front line of Banqi Bang's ranks began to attack in full force.
The Banqibang legions in the back also followed closely, pressing towards the expeditionary force together.
Huang Ling led the Sixth Legion and quickly rushed towards the city wall guarded by the expeditionary force.
The battle broke out in an instant.
After three or four rounds, the Sixth Legion led by Huang Ling took the lead in breaking through the defenses of the expeditionary force and occupying the wall more than 100 meters wide.
Seeing this, the Banqi State Lord and the two allied marshals immediately led the other legions to charge forward with the Sixth Legion led by Huang Ling.
In this way, more than a dozen legions of Banqibang followed the Sixth Legion into the walls built by the expeditionary force.
The First Coalition Army on the left and the Second Coalition Army on the right were still fighting with the expeditionary force for the city walls.
When the lord of Banqi Bang saw this, he immediately ordered the regiments rushing from behind to help on both sides, and strive to completely defeat the defense of the expeditionary force of Xishan State.
The mountain eagle saw it in the air, and ordered the defenders on both sides to gradually retreat towards the mountains on both sides.
When the lord of Banqi saw that the soldiers of the expeditionary force had retreated towards the mountains, he ordered all the troops of Banqi to pursue them.
Huang Ling led the Sixth Army along the valley, closely following the officers and men of the expeditionary force.
The Banqi State Lord and the two marshals of the coalition forces also followed the Sixth Army led by Huang Ling.
The Sixth Army led by Huang Ling marched very quickly, causing the soldiers of the Xishan State Expeditionary Force to constantly retreat, and the Lord of Banqi State and the two marshals of the coalition army also closely followed Huang Ling's Sixth Army Corps, constantly charging forward.
But behind them, the Banqibang army fell into the combined strangulation of the 1st and 2nd Coalition Armies of the Expeditionary Force.
An hour later, Huang Ling rushed to the side of the besieged Banqi Bang team in the middle of the mountain with the 6th Army of the First Coalition Army of Banqi Bang, followed by the Banqi Bang Lord and the two allied marshals who also arrived around the besieged Banqi Bang team.
At this moment, the 3rd Coalition Army, which had been chased and fled, and the 4th Coalition Army, which had surrounded the garrison of the Banqibang Mountains, joined together.
Mountain Eagle ordered loudly in the air: "The third coalition army from the right, the third coalition army from the left, start the counterattack." ”
Following Shan Ying's order, the Third Coalition Army turned around and pounced on the Sixth Army led by Huang Ling, and the Fourth Coalition Army also pounced on the Fourth Coalition Army from the right.
Seeing this situation, the Banqi Bang team stationed in the mountain range also rushed out and joined the Sixth Army led by Huang Ling to resist the attack of the expeditionary force and protect the Banqi Bang lord behind.
However, there were too many officers and men of the expeditionary force who surrounded and attacked the Banqibang army from both sides, and about 200,000 soldiers of the expeditionary force surrounded 60,000 or 70,000 Banqibang soldiers, making it difficult for the Banqibang team to move an inch and being beaten everywhere.
In order to defend the state lord, the two alliance marshals who had cultivated in the middle of the first level of the Divine Disciple Realm had no choice but to fight in person and command the troops to resist on both sides.
The lord of the Banqi State said: "Generals, we have rescued the army stationed in the north, can we camp here to resist, there is no need to retreat." ”
Marshal Zebra said: "Lord, the terrain here is narrow, and it is not suitable for a decisive battle of a large army. Now that we withdraw from the mountains and camp in the meadows outside the mountains, we can trap the Western Hills Expeditionary Force and force them to retreat. ”
The giant elephant marshal also said: "There are more than 100,000 soldiers behind us, and there are also 60,000 or 70,000 soldiers here. ”
"Okay, since the two marshals have decided so, then we will start retreating, camp at the exit of the mountain range, and fight a decisive battle with the Xishan State Expeditionary Force." The Bang Qi Bang Lord said.
Therefore, Marshal Zebra and Marshal Giant Elephant led more than 10,000 soldiers of the Chinese army to open the way in front, and Huang Ling led 10,000 soldiers of the Sixth Army to retreat to the grass outside the mountain range after defending the lord of the Banqi State in the middle and the rescued 50,000 mountain garrison soldiers.
At this time, Huang Ling said to Huang Long, Jin Shan, Jin Long, and Gui Shan: "It's time for you to appear, but don't be too fast, from here all the way to the exit of the mountain, you go and kill them one by one." ”
Huanglong, Jinshan, Jinlong, and Guishan descended from Huang Ling's body, hid in the ranks of the expeditionary force, and killed the marshals, deputy marshals, and commanders of the Banqibang team one by one according to the plan formulated by the mountain eagle.
Seeing in the air that Huang Ling, Jin Shan, Jin Long, and Gui Shan were hidden in the expeditionary force, Shanying commanded the Third and Fourth Coalition armies to block the retreat of the Banqi Bang team and attack the soldiers surrounding the Banqi Bang lord.
The Sixth Army of the First Coalition Army of Banqi State led by Huang Ling also resisted and retreated to ensure the safety of the Banqi State Lord.
In this way, after more than two hours of hard fighting, with the loss of nearly 30,000 soldiers, the lord of Banqi State and tens of thousands of soldiers retreated from the camp on the mountain ridge to the grass south of the mountain.
After arriving at the grassland, Huang Ling, who was behind the back hall, immediately commanded the soldiers of the Sixth Army to build a city wall 200 meters south of the trench of the expeditionary force, set up obstacles, and make it look like a long-term confrontation with the expeditionary force.
Just as Huang Ling was directing the soldiers to build the city wall, the lord of the Banqi State came over and said, "Commander Baboon, you have done a good job. We were able to rescue 50,000 soldiers from the siege of the Xishan State Expeditionary Force today, and this is all thanks to you. Now, as the commander of the palace, it is even more important that you can take the initiative to build the city wall here and prepare to resist the attack of the Xishan State Expeditionary Force. Well, when we have repelled the attack of the Xishan State Expeditionary Force, I will reward you heavily! ”
After the lord of Banqi State finished speaking, he was about to continue to inspect the city wall that had just been built, when he heard the commander of the Chinese army coming from afar say: "Report to the lord of the state, our battle losses have been counted, and a total of more than 112,000 soldiers have been sacrificed. Among them, the first coalition army sacrificed more than 35,000 people, the second coalition army sacrificed more than 53,000 people, and the northern mountain garrison team sacrificed more than 24,000 people. In addition, two of our marshals, four deputy marshals, and sixteen corps commanders were also killed. ”
"What? Didn't they rush out with us? How could they have died in the line of duty? The Banqi Bang Lord said.
"Report to the lord of the state, they were all killed after returning to the meadows." The commander of the Chinese army said.
"How can this be true? Outrageous! This is unreasonable! The bird was still hovering there, telling the armies to be prepared. By the way, how many soldiers do we have now that can fight? The Banqi Bang Lord said.
"Report to the state lord, there are still more than 148,000 soldiers here, and I am about to ask you how to reorganize the team." The commander of the Chinese army said.
"Now, we have less than 300,000 soldiers, and the garrisons in Banqi City and the east and west sides can no longer be used, and these are the only troops that can resist the Xishan State Expeditionary Force here. Whether it will be organized into one large coalition army or three small coalition armies, you can tell me. The Banqi Bang Lord said.
"According to the usual practice, it should be organized into three small coalition armies, but we must now do our best to block the attack of the Xishan State Expeditionary Force, perhaps it is more suitable to organize into a large coalition army and a small coalition army." The commander of the Chinese army said.
"Okay, tell me how to do it." The Bang Qi Bang Lord said.
"Report to the state lord, my idea is to first form a main coalition of 100,000 soldiers, and then form the other soldiers into a small coalition army. Among them, the small coalition forces assisted the main coalition forces around the battlefield, so that the two coalition forces cooperated with each other and were able to take the initiative to calmly resist the Xishan State expeditionary force. The commander of the Chinese army said.
"Good! Just build your team according to your plan and try to build it sooner. The Banqi Bang Lord said.
The commander of the Chinese army immediately said: "Yes, the task is guaranteed to be completed!" ”
Huang Ling clearly heard the conversation between the lord of Banqi State and the commander of the Chinese army not far away, so he transmitted the message to Shanying in detail, asking Shanying to immediately organize a team to sneak attack, and then give the Banqi Bang lord a little blow.
