"What does the Holy Maiden think?"

In a forest not far from the confrontation between the two armies, the Red Lotus Holy Maiden, with her two maids and the chief protector Huang Tiansheng, one of the four great protectors in the sect, were quietly observing the battlefield ahead.

Huang Tiansheng looked at the constant turmoil on his side, frowned, and then looked at Su Yu and asked.

Su Yu's brows also furrowed, and he observed it again for a while before he said in a heavy voice: "I originally thought that those people had been oppressed by the government for so long, and they should have hated the government to the core.

But now it seems that even though they still have hatred in their hearts, there is more fear in their hearts. ”

Great Protector Huang Tiansheng nodded and said, "The idea of being afraid of the government has been ingrained in the hearts of these people, and it is not so easy to eliminate it.

Originally, we planned to let these people get the blood of officials in other places on their hands step by step, and as long as they were stained with the blood of officials, then their fear of officials in their hearts would gradually disappear.

It's a pity that before they could come, the army of the imperial court arrived, and they could only be hurriedly pulled onto the battlefield. ”

"Even so, I don't think there should be 200,000 people sent by the imperial court, right?"

Su Yu watched from a distance, roughly estimated the number of imperial troops on the opposite side, and had some doubts in his heart.

In this regard, Huang Tiansheng said with a smile: "Holy Maiden, this is what you don't understand, the imperial court has always liked to bluff when sending troops, and the same is true in history, obviously there are only 100,000 soldiers, and they dare to play the banner of 500,000."

In fact, the other 400,000 were all auxiliaries transporting supplies.

What's even more exaggerated is that they even counted the number of people's husbands, so they have such an exaggerated number.

Now that they are on the battlefield, those auxiliaries and civilians are naturally not able to play, so the true number of troops in the imperial court is exposed.

According to my scruples, the imperial court said that there were 200,000 troops this time, and it was estimated that it would be good to have 100,000 regular soldiers. ”

For his own judgment, Huang Tiansheng is very confident.

In this regard, Su Yu also nodded lightly in agreement.

He immediately said: "Since this is the case, then wouldn't our full 300,000 people win against the 100,000 people of the upper court?" ”

Huang Tiansheng shook his head: "Holy Maiden, this is not how the combat effectiveness is calculated, and there are also problems with equipment and the quality of soldiers.

In this respect, we are inferior to the imperial court.

However, as the saying goes, more ants bite and kill elephants, even if they have the advantage of soldier quality and equipment, but we have three times more of them, and our subordinates estimate that they should be able to win a miserable victory in the end. ”

"A pyrrhic victory?"

Su Yu's brows suddenly frowned again.

"That's right! A tragic victory, in the end, it would be good if tens of thousands of people could be left of these 300,000 people, but there is no need to feel that there are many casualties behind him, just the people, there are a lot of people in this world, and there are even more places to stand in the south.

And these tens of thousands of people left behind after bloody battles can become the hole cards of our Holy Sect in the future.

They are veterans who can resist the imperial soldiers, and we will be able to expand our power quickly with them, and we will be able to regain what we have lost by then. ”

Huang Tiansheng's face became more and more excited with his words, and he seemed to have seen the picture of himself leading tens of thousands of elites to attack and be invincible.

Su Yu disagreed with this: "Huang Protector, isn't it good for us to do this, those people are all our sect members!" ”

Unexpectedly, hearing her words, Huang Tiansheng's face suddenly sank, and he said coldly:

"Holy Maiden, the Sect Master means to expand the strength of the Holy Sect, not to let you have the kindness of a woman!

In the past, the imperial court couldn't spare its hands to clean us up, but now since the imperial court can send people for the first time, it will send it for the second time, even if we win this time, what if the imperial court sends even more powerful ones?

The only thing we have to do is to keep all the elites in the sect and save them everywhere, and finally we can have an elite team. ”

Seeing Huang Tiansheng's appearance, Su Yu lowered her head, it seemed that at this moment, Huang Tiansheng's status was much higher than that of her, a holy woman.

However, this is also a fact, although Su Yu is the Holy Maiden of the Red Lotus, in the Red Lotus Sect, the status of the sect leader is always above the Holy Maiden.

And the so-called four Dharma protectors, two of them were arranged by the sect leader to monitor him by her side.

So generally speaking, what he, the Holy Maiden, said, works, but when the Dharma Protector sent by the two sect masters speaks, the words of her, the Holy Maiden, become useless.

Now that Huang Tiansheng spoke, Su Yu understood that even if he didn't agree, the Holy Sect would do the same, so he sighed and silently stopped talking.

The two continued to look at the battlefield.

At this time, there seems to be a little accident on the battlefield.

At the instigation of the true disciples of the Red Lotus Sect, the 300,000 sect members finally couldn't help it, even if they knew that there was danger, they overcame their inner fears and launched an attack on the opposite imperial army.

As soon as he realized this, Li Dingguo quickly changed his policy, he knew that he couldn't drag it out any longer, and he had to be ruthless, otherwise it would be too late for the army to be crushed.

Just as Li Dingguo was preparing to go on a killing spree.

Huo Qubing, who had been hiding aside, suddenly moved.

Like wolves smelling blood, they suddenly rushed out from the side of the 300,000 sect army.

Immediately after that, in the shock and astonishment of the 300,000 Red Lotus Sect troops, he slammed into the middle of them!

Immediately after that, he attacked and killed the high-level command post in the middle of the country all the way!

The whole process went smoothly, and it took less than a quarter of an hour, so fast that no one reacted!

After the high-level leaders of the Red Lotus Sect, who were in the middle of the army, noticed that the purpose of the other party's cavalry was actually them, they immediately began to send people back to help, wanting to rely on the number of people to drown this cavalry.

However, their order had just been issued, and before the front army could turn around or transfer manpower, Li Dingguo, who had discovered the clue, immediately came to support.

Directly ahead, the original archer put the bow on his back again, replacing it with a repeater that had never been used.

With an order, the overwhelming repeater suddenly gave this Red Lotus Sect army a shock from the leadership of weapons!

The repeating crossbow like mowing grass instantly made the front army that consumed and transferred some manpower to support the Chinese army have to organize manpower to resist, but it seems that no number of people are enough for the other party to harvest like this, and there is no power to support the Chinese army.

And at this time, among the 300,000 sect troops, Huo Qubing and the Wuwu Iron Cavalry were already super gods!

All the way, it was as easy as a hot knife cutting into the butter, and it was easy to break through the layers of obstacles.

It's as relaxing as if you're taking a walk!

The combat effectiveness of this army composed of the Red Lotus Sect really opened Huo Qubing's eyes, and it was actually able to be weak to this extent.

In less than a moment's effort, his seven thousand people had already rushed to a distance of less than a hundred meters from the command group in the center of the army, and he could even clearly see the look of horror on the faces of the group of Red Lotus Sect leaders who were heavily protected.

It's just that what made his brows furrow, didn't he say that this Red Lotus Sect is now headed by the Red Lotus Holy Maiden?

Why didn't he see the woman in this group?

What he didn't know was that for the sake of safety, the Red Lotus Holy Maiden did not personally command the army at all, but quietly hid not far away, and at this moment, she was watching him with horror on his face so easily break into the center of the army!

"This ...... Is the army of this court so powerful? With only 7,000 cavalry, it was so easy to rush in?

If we were there at the moment, wouldn't we be served in a pot? ”

Su Yu's heart was both shocked and happy.

What shocked her was that the combat effectiveness of the imperial army was actually stronger than she thought, and fortunately she didn't go to the battlefield with the army.
