Chapter 187: Wang Da Hammer is caught
"Master, I know that you are fair and honest, and you disdain to be the same as a street rat with me."
Saying that, Ma Mo was instantly stunned, "But the barbarians have already broken through Lanzhou City, and the troops will come to the city in a few days, can you and I be able to block such a fierce iron horse, let's be realistic, find a way back for ourselves, as long as you cooperate, the five thousand taels of silver of the Yang family will definitely be given, and you will also leave some money for the rest of your life." ”
"Ma Ming, you are the commander of the Great Cadre, and you still want to run away at this time?"
Jiang Guomin gritted his teeth and clenched his hands into fists, "If the barbarians come to the city, I will lead the people to fight to the end, if they are defeated, I will kill myself in the city, and there will definitely be no stealing a living!" ”
Outside the city of Lanzhou.
At night, in the barbarian tent, a decadent atmosphere lingered inside.
They took a break during the day, and only in the evening did they wake up and start the meeting.
Ah Kun Bar and Guo Longtian and other barbarian generals sat in the big tent, but their expressions were very depressed.
The losses in the night were too much, and most of the elite of the barbarians were buried in it.
This kind of loss has reached the stage of breaking the muscles and bones.
Now there are less than 40,000 elites left and 2,000 soldiers stationed at Xihanmen Pass.
Ah Kun frowned, "Tell me, why did the battle go like this, and what should we do next?" ”
The generals were silent.
When they fought big jobs before, they all had a winning heart and knew that their side would win.
But after two big defeats, their morale is gone, and they don't even dare to go out to fight with Daqian now.
Guo Longtian stood up and said: "Prince, at this time, our best choice is to withdraw our troops, if we continue to fight, even if we take Lanzhou City, we will not have the troops to continue to advance eastward." ”
"Retreat!"
Ah Kun felt extremely uncomfortable.
The blood sea has not yet been avenged, and after two major defeats, the army retreated like this.
If this returns to Daman, how will the other kings and princes think of themselves?
But what the military advisor said is very right, there is no way to withdraw from the army now.
Pedaling.
At this moment, a barbarian soldier hurriedly ran in, and shouted with a panicked face, "Prince, something is wrong. ”
Ah Kun's mood became even more unhappy, "What's the matter?" ”
The soldier hurriedly said, "The commander Zhang Wu and the military advisor Mu Shaoyou are rushing to us with a large army, as if they are preparing for a big battle. ”
"What did you say!"
Ah Kun stood up suddenly, and when he came to the outside of the account, he saw countless torches coming, "Haha, very good, since you want to find death, then Prince Ben will fulfill you." ”
"Kill!"
The barbarian soldiers were enthusiastic.
The previous two major defeats were all conspiracy and trickery by the big cadres, and they did not dare to face hard steel at all.
Guo Longtian felt a little uneasy, "Prince, according to Namu Shaoyou's ruthlessness, he is not 100% sure, he will not attack without authorization at all, and now he is actually attacking, it must have been prepared in advance." ”
"Hmph."
Ah Kun snorted disdainfully, "What trick can he use now?" ”
The two defeats were lost in Mu Shaoyou's plan, which made him angry and scared.
"I don't know."
Guo Longtian shook his head bitterly, "But according to that person, since he chose to take the initiative, he must have prepared a backhand, and the means must not be two times apart, and it is now night, the iron horse can't exert its might, and the long-distance stone bullet cart, this battle is not easy to fight at all, prince, let's withdraw, this is the safest." ”
In ancient times, it was very lacking in nutrients, and at night, it was almost impossible to see anything.
"Withdraw?"
"Where are we going?"
Ah Kun frowned, "Now the other party is less than five kilometers away from us, when we gather, they have already arrived in front of us, I will not retreat, I want to see, he takes the initiative to attack, we defend, what tricks will he play, this battle, I want to beat their morale, come, let the whole army get up and do a good defense." ”
Inside the big tent, the barbarian soldiers were mobilized and began to defend.
The big tent stood opposite the gate, and raised a series of tall shields.
Not only that, but in order to defend against the stone cart, the shield rose layer after layer, and the barbarian soldiers hid behind the shield, each armed with a bow and arrow, ready to strike at a distance.
Although it is not clear in the darkness, so many people add up, it is also a rain of arrows.
Looking at the countless torches, stopped half a kilometer away, Ah Kun gritted his teeth, "Mu Shaoyou, what ability do you have to step on a horse, even if you use it, Lao Tzu wants to see what you can do to defeat this king head-on." ”
There were almost 30,000 soldiers on the side of the Great Qian, all of whom were holding torches, as if they were attacking at any time.
Mu Shaoyou didn't actually think about a sneak attack, the two sides were too close, if the troops were mobilized, they would inevitably be discovered.
In this way, he directly and generously held the torch and showed that he was ready to attack.
30,000 soldiers.
Walking in front of him was the ironclad soldiers, constantly pulling the stone bullet cart forward.
In the middle, soldiers drove hundreds of cattle and sheep forward, and in the rear, more than 20,000 soldiers followed.
Soon, the 30,000-strong army came to a half-kilometer away, and immediately came to a stop within half a kilometer.
Although the barbarians did not have giant bows, they conquered many cities, and had giant bows and catapults made by Daqian.
And this place of 400 paces is the maximum distance between the giant bow and the catapult.
In the rear, Mu Shaoyou asked, "What is the movement of the barbarians now?" ”
When the scout returned, he immediately reported, "The barbarian camp has made a defense, and there are many wooden shields at the fence, which must be afraid of stone bullet carts." ”
Mu Shaoyou frowned, "Why are the barbarians so afraid of death, they don't even dare to fight." ”
In order to be afraid that he would not be able to defeat the barbarians, he deliberately set up thousands of ironclad soldiers in front.
Zhang Wu smiled, "The soldiers can't see clearly at night, the barbarians don't know how to solve it, plus the iron cavalry can't give full play to their advantages, and they are afraid of being in the military, if they dare to come out, this is weird." ”
In fact, there are many soldiers who can't see clearly at night.
The military advisor said that it was because his eyesight was not good, so he asked the quartermaster department to add a lot of pork liver to the ingredients given to the soldiers.
After eating for a while, something terrible happened.
Many soldiers who couldn't see clearly at night before were now able to see clearly, and their symptoms have completely improved.
Mu Shaoyou stretched his waist, "Then continue according to the previous plan." ”
The generals' heartbeats accelerated instantly, and their faces were full of embarrassment, and they were very uneasy.
