Chapter 423 Offensive and defensive translocation
After Yang Yanzhang's lever shot out an arrow, he suddenly felt something was wrong. He subconsciously looked up and found a huge stone falling from the sky and smashing directly towards the Yuzhi Army.
"Take, be careful!"
After Yang Yanzhang issued a warning, he slightly adjusted his horse's head and approached the stone's landing point, while hanging the bow on the saddle and pulling out the Cunyan gun again.
When the stone was about to fall, Yang Yanzhang rushed to the point where the stone landed, directly swung the Cunyan gun in his hand and sucked it hard on the stone.
The Cunyan gun drawn on the stone was like a small stone being drawn. Although the size and proportions were a bit unequal, the huge stone was easily pulled back by Yang Yanzhang.
"Bang~"
The huge stone hit the wooden team wall, directly smashing a hole in the team wall, but Yang Yanzhang had no intention of taking the opportunity to enter Situ Yao's army.
"One team shot a wave in the direction of falling rocks, the second team covered, and the rest evacuated."
With Yang Yanzhang's order, a huge rock flew from the sky again, but this time it was not one piece, but more than a dozen pieces flew over one piece.
Seeing this, Yang Yanzhang did not hesitate at all. He pressed the horse's back, jumped onto the horse's back, and then exerted force with both feet, almost trampling the Red Blood Dragon Care King, who was already in the Marrow Cleansing Realm.
"Xilulu~"
The intelligence of the Red Blood Dragon Test in the Marrow Cleansing Realm is almost the same as a child of four or five years old. When he was suddenly stepped on this, it suddenly made him sniff with some dissatisfaction. But thinking about the various essences that Yang Yanzhang fed it on weekdays, it decided to hold back the breath first and pretend that nothing had happened. Then he walked straight to Yang Yanzhang, so that he could wait for Yang Yanzhang to fall down and catch him.
As far as I am so sensible, that stupid biped beast would at least add half a pot of honey to his forage.
The Red Blood Dragon Cong, who was doing the wishful thinking, looked up at the sky. Yang Yanzhang, who was flying up with the help of the Cunyan gun, opened his bow left and right in the air. Most of the dozen huge rocks that flew over were knocked down by him.
As for the remaining ones that were far away from him, although they fell down, they were basically stopped by the Red Flame Dragon Knight who was responsible for the cover. Although they could not like Yang Yanzhang to pick up the huge rocks more than ten meters away, it was still no problem to stop the stones thrown by these trenchers as a marrow washing realm.
The team responsible for the shooting was not distracted by anyone looking at the stones. After pulling out the bows and arrows in their hands, they directly shot a rain of arrows at the place where the stones were thrown out.
However, after this wave of arrow rain, there were not many screams in the camp. I think Tu Yu was prepared for it.
But even so, the trencher in Situ Yao's camp stopped temporarily, not knowing whether it was suppressed or refilling the stones.
Yang Yanzhang looked at Situ Yao's big tent for a while, and finally decided to give up the plan to rush the camp for the time being. The risk and the return are not proportional. If the Red Flame Dragon Cavalry falls into it, it will be a big loss, so there is no need to take risks.
Besides, Han Qu still needs to train troops for the 100,000 yuan. If he is finished fighting, what else can he do to practice?
Thinking of this, Yang Yanzhang, who fell back on the back of the Red Blood Dragon Chase, ordered in a deep voice: "Retreat the troops first, but don't have to go too fast to see if anyone will chase him out without opening his eyes."
"Here."
The other generals responded, followed Yang Yanzhang and retreated towards Guangling City with great swagger.
On Situ Yao's side, there were hundreds of thousands of people, but no one dared to go out to pursue him. They all watched Yang Yanzhang and the others retreat silently.
After they returned to the city, the heads of the family in the big tent not only did not feel humiliated, but instead breathed a sigh of relief.
They were really worried that the Red Flame Dragon Knight would come in just now. After all, if these five thousand invulnerable Red Flame Dragon Knights came in, then the noble heads of their family seemed to have no other way to go except to flee in a hurry.
But when they looked at the expressions of the rest of the tent, they suddenly felt that this emotion was not right, so someone immediately spoke up to break the silence and looked at Situ Yao and said, "Leader, this Red Flame Dragon Knight is so strong, what should we use to beat them?"
Situ Yao did not answer, his expression was a little gloomy. Before he came, he knew that the Red Flame Dragon Knight was very strong, and he had made plans to kill them with the number.
But he never expected that the Red Flame Dragon Knight would be so strong. Judging from the strength they showed when they blocked the stones, the soldiers must at least have the cultivation level of the Marrow Cleansing Realm.
Such strength is not enough to be the soldiers. Even if it is placed on their side, even if it is placed on the border army back then, it is more than enough to be the commander of a thousand-person team.
But now, Mo Zizai is so extravagant that he regards so many warriors who are enough to be the commander of the Thousand-Man team as ordinary soldiers to form such a cavalry. Isn’t this a bit too big?
This strength is far beyond his imagination. If he really wants to kill them with the number of people, there is only one way, that is, use the elites under his command to be the vanguard, entangle them tightly, and then fight half of the 500,000 troops to have a glimmer of hope to keep them.
And this is just a glimmer of hope, and there is no absolute certainty.
Because those damn horses are outrageous!!!
Thinking of the mounts of the Red Flame Dragon Rider, Situ Yao even had difficulty controlling his emotions. No matter how he practiced, it was understandable that he was stronger.
But you are so strong in horses. Isn’t it a bit too bullying? People can practice, but can horses also practice???
Even with a knowledgeable person like Situ Yao, he was shocked when he saw those horses carrying armor weighing hundreds of kilograms and people running like the wind.
Moreover, based on Situ Yao's understanding of the horses, the Red Blood Dragon Testers did not exert all the speed in the battle just now.
In other words, with the remaining strength, they can easily catch up with the light cavalry, and even Hu Bin, who rode a famous horse, could not escape. What kind of monster horse is this?
With these horses here, no matter how good the trap is, I am afraid that I can't keep them all.
Thinking of this, Situ Yao's already gloomy face became even more ugly.
But as the leader of the alliance, no matter how he feels, he will come out to take charge of the overall situation. Therefore, he adjusted his mood, calmed down again, and then said, "What are you panic?"
"No matter how strong that cavalry is, it is only 5,000 people. We have a large army of 500,000 here. We have an absolute advantage in number. Why do you fear?"
"There are no more than half a hundred thousand, and there are still four hundred and seventy thousand left."
Qian Wuwei, the head of the Qian family, heard Situ Yao's words, and couldn't help but mutter in a low voice, but this mutter attracted the glaring eyes of Hu Yudong, the head of the Hu family.
Originally, he wanted to make himself less losses, so he let his treasure cavalry fight this first battle. As a result, all 30,000 cavalrymen were involved. Now he was feeling sorry for his death, but he heard Qian Wuwei's sarcastic remarks. If he hadn't been able to beat Qian Wuwei, he would have gone up to slap him two big-eared guys.
Looking at Hu Yudong who was glaring at him, Qian Wuwei only laughed, but there was no apology. When he felt that his light cavalry was very sure of dealing with the Red Flame Dragon Cavalry, Hu Yudong's face as if he was a villain was in power, he felt a little upset.
So when Qian Wuwei saw Hu Yudong's appearance now, he couldn't help but speak deliberately to stimulate him, but he didn't say much. After all, they are still nominal allies now, so it would be bad if they really broke up.
Although Situ Yao also heard this, he pretended that he hadn't heard it and continued: "Tomorrow, I will arrange a few more arc sagittals and catapults in the army. If the Red Flame Dragon Knight dares to rush forward again, use arc sagittals to keep them."
"There are only five thousand people in total, I want to see how many times they dare to rush out."
"What should I do if I attack the city?"
Hearing Situ Yao's words, the head of the Cui family in Jinkou County couldn't help but ask, after all, these equipment are used to attack the city. If they were all used to guard against the Red Flame Dragon Cavalry, how could this city attack?
"Don't hurry before siege."
Before Situ Yao came, he didn't expect that the Red Flame Dragon Knight was so strong, so he brought not very enough siege equipment. If he attacked strongly, with the strength of those Red Flame Dragon Knights, he would not have been killed as much as he went up and could not be captured at all.
So he thought for a while, then said, "Stay in a siege and don't attack for the time being. When the craftsmen have made enough siege equipment, they will activate the total skill."
Speaking of this, Situ Yao spoke again and comforted everyone, "Time stands on our side, so there is no need to worry. After all, in addition to our 500,000 people, Jieyang and Yecheng also have 150,000 troops each, and the King of Bei'an also agreed to send troops."
"As long as they can take down Jieyang and Yecheng, cut off the rear of Guangling City, and disrupt their rear, Guangling City will naturally win without a fight."
"This method is also OK..."
Everyone thought about it, but there was no good idea. After all, no one wanted to face the terrifying Red Flame Dragon Knight. Therefore, after a moment of silence, they all agreed with Situ Yao's plan.
...
It took nearly three days for the 500,000 troops to set up the camp. During this period, Yang Yanzhang also went out of the city to harass him several times. Although Situ Yao was prepared, he failed to cause too much results, but every time he left the city, he could take at least a few hundred lives.
So Yang Yanzhang simply thought that he was taking the Red Flame Dragon Cavalry out to practice archery skills. He came out to shoot a few waves of arrows at Situ Yao's camp. When Situ Yao brought out siege equipment such as stone casting and arrows, he led his troops away without hesitation.
Anyway, they are all outside the safe distance, even siege equipment like arc sagittals can basically not hurt them, and they can come and go freely.
On the fourth day, after Situ Yao's five camps were established, Yang Yanzhang gave up the act of harassing the camp and instead brought the Red Flame Dragon Cavalry outside the camp to challenge.
Such an unscrupulous appearance makes him look like he is a siege, while Situ Yao and the others are the ones guarding the city.
Listening to Situ Yao calling at the gate of the camp, the people in the tent looked a little unfair.
In the past few days, because Yang Yanzhang has taken hundreds of lives every time he comes to harassment, the morale of the army is extremely low. Not to mention going to the camp wall to serve, the soldiers usually dare not even approach the camp wall.
After all, no one wants to be shot to death next time.
If it weren't for the high prestige of these aristocratic families in their own army, and Situ Yao responded properly, and their 500,000 army had an absolute numerical advantage, there would probably be deserters long ago.
So if Yang Yanzhang was allowed to yell at the door without responding, then the morale of the army, which was not high, would probably fall to the extreme. At that time, there would be a slight turmoil, and the army would have the possibility of collapse.
But even though they knew it was the result, none of these aristocratic families spoke at this moment.
After all, the strength of the Red Flame Dragon Knight is obvious to all, and they don’t want their soldiers to die in vain.
"Leader, this is not a solution."
Seeing everyone falling into silence, Hu Yudong spoke. Anyway, his cavalry was dead or fleeing, and he could not let him go any further, so he spoke without any scruples.
What's more, there are some dark thoughts in his mind. After all, he has suffered such heavy losses, but you have not suffered any losses. Isn't this too unfair?
Therefore, he spoke directly: "If he is allowed to call at the gate of the camp, the morale of the army will inevitably collapse. Therefore, he will definitely sluggish his spirit and give the soldiers some confidence, otherwise this battle will not be fought."
"That's a good thing."
Qian Wuwei guessed some of Hu Yudong's thoughts, so he said sarcastically: "Since the head of Hu family said that, please send someone to suppress Yang Yanzhang's spirit. We will cheer you on the drums and wait for you to win, how can we kill them together?"
"I want to take action."
Hu Yudong didn't care about the money's unnecessary run and said, "But the elite in my hand has been fought, and there is no soldier available if I want to take action. Why not borrow your soldiers from my family to destroy the Red Flame Dragon Cavalry and return them to you immediately?"
"So? What to pay?"
Xu Ran, the head of the Xu family in Wujiang County, couldn't help but sneer when he heard this, "Will you still use your 30,000 light cavalry?"
"you……"
Hu Yudong couldn't help but look angry when he heard this, and shouted directly: "My 30,000 cavalrymen are at least dead on the battlefield."
"But what about you? They all look like turtles, and they don't even dare to go out with a single step in the camp. Is it worthy to laugh at me?"
"It's better to shrink your head than to die in vain."
Xu Ran showed a sarcastic look on his face and said, "We are small families, but we don't want the head of Hu to have such a big family and a big business. If 30,000 cavalrymen die, they will not feel sorry for them at all."
As the saying goes, "Don't slap people in the face, and curse people without revealing their shortcomings." Xu Ran's three words remain the same as the 30,000 cavalry that Hu Yudong was defeated. For Hu Yudong, who was already very distressed, it was undoubtedly sprinkling salt on his wounds.
So Hu Yudong was angered and started a personal attack on Xu Ran. "The head of the Xu family is worthy of being the overlord of Wujiang County. After staying in the water for a long time, he really likes to be a turtle, right?"
"Okay, what a noisy look like!"
Situ Yao suddenly spoke and interrupted the quarrel. He looked around the old foxes. Whether they were quarreling actively or passively, these people actually had one meaning, that is, to disrupt the topic just now and never send troops.
When they make up their minds, even if they force their assignments, they will definitely not abide by the orders.
So Situ Yao thought for a moment, then spoke to his eldest disciple:
Chapter completed!
