~.< >-~ Chapter 717 of Thousand Years of Qi Control
Ye Aofeng saw our army attacking. £§£§com immediately ordered his own soldiers to fight.
The heavy cavalry led by Yang Yi and the cavalry led by Zheng Zheng were divided into two battalions to attack. Zheng Zheng used the cavalry to charge into the enemy formation, and Yang Yi followed with the heavy cavalry. Although the two were very different in age, they were close to each other. The cooperation between them is still orderly.
The direct consequence of tired soldiers and hungry soldiers fighting together was that the sound of wailing increased on the battlefield. This happened because either exhaustion or hunger would cause weakness, and the weak would wield weapons. It's hard to kill someone, but you can stab them, so there are more people rolling and wailing on the battlefield than falling dead.
It is inappropriate to use grandiose to describe the battlefield scene. The most appropriate word is chaos, especially after nightfall. Although the waning moon in the sky and the snow on the ground can make people vaguely observe things, they cannot see clearly. Therefore, The entire battlefield is very chaotic. Not only is it chaotic, it is also very dirty. People will vomit after being injured, and will become incontinent before dying. All kinds of filth, filth and bloody smell can be seen everywhere on the snow. This made the Huang tribe women and the few Taoist nuns on our side frown.
Just when the fighting between the two sides was in full swing, reinforcements from the Northern Qi Dynasty finally arrived. As they approached the battlefield, many monks and nuns began to disperse in a fan shape and rushed to various places to support. Seeing this scene, I quickly teleported back to Zheng Zheng and Yang Yi. It's easy to find a general but it's hard to find a general. These two generals still have the commanding ability. I can't let them lose their lives.
"Follow me to meet the enemy." When Xu Shuangyi saw that the monks and nuns from the other side had arrived, he gave the order to the women of his tribe without waiting for my instructions, and then drove the golden-winged roc to lead the women of his tribe into the air to meet the enemy.
There were about five hundred monks and nuns who rushed over, and there were also a small number of Taoists among them. Most of these people had purple energy, and there were also some earthly immortals, but there were none above the heavenly immortals. Without heavenly immortals, no one could achieve the flight of birds. The height allowed Xu Shuangyi and others to look down and shoot down.
"The archers come forward to intercept those monks, take one of the enemy's heads, and feed thousands of households." I dropped down expressionlessly and spoke to the archers who had been waiting for a long time. Using these archers to intercept the Ziqi monks is like hitting a stone rabbit with an egg and trying to kick an eagle. The chances of death are high. Even so, they have to rush forward and kill as many as they can.
As the saying goes, there must be a brave man under a heavy reward. To put it simply, to receive a salary from a thousand households is to accept the support of a thousand households. This is a very high treatment in feudal society. Many archers were driven by profits and immediately rushed forward. When They can flexibly control the bows. The bows and arrows they carry are limited. If I don't offer a big reward as a temptation, these archers will not be prepared and will waste the arrows indiscriminately. Now this situation will not happen. A monk's head It can feed thousands of households. This head is worth more than gold and everyone wants it.
"The enemy's reinforcements have arrived, our troops are exhausted, and it is getting too late to distinguish between ourselves and the enemy. Please order the troops to withdraw and fight another day." Yang Yi said. He had previously taken the lead and charged bravely, but at this time he was injured in many places. Fortunately, he had experienced hundreds of battles and was able to always avoid vital points at critical moments. Although there were many wounds, his life was not hurt.
"General Yang's words make sense, please give me the order to withdraw the troops." Zheng Zheng echoed. The two of them urged the withdrawal of troops because they couldn't bear to see all the soldiers who had followed them for many years die in battle.
"At this time, Ming Jin withdraws his troops. The enemy will surely pursue him. How should we deal with it?" I watched Ye Aofeng closely above the enemy formation, lest he instantly hurt Xu Shuangyi in mid-air.
"As a general, how can I leave my headquarters without permission?!" Yang Yi glanced at me dissatisfied, then rushed back to the battlefield with his own weapons. He looked at Yang Yi solemnly, then turned to look at me, and finally stayed.
"You two protect General Yang." I said to the two Ziqi Taoists behind me. I still admire Yang Yi's loyalty.
"Respect the real person's decree." The two leaders agreed and rushed to the battlefield.
Zheng Zheng showed an embarrassed look next to me. He was afraid that I would look down on him.
"When I was your age, my temperament was very similar to yours." I raised my hand and patted his shoulder. I admire people who are loyal, and I also like people who obey orders. The reason why Zheng Zheng stays is not because he is greedy for life and afraid of death, but because he obeys orders.
Hearing this, Zheng Zheng nodded slightly with confusion on his face. He was already in his thirties at this time, but I looked only twenty, so he didn't understand why I said these words to him. But I didn't waste my time explaining it, because at this time, due to the addition of monks and nuns from the Northern Qi Dynasty, the entire battlefield was a different scene.
??The masters of purple energy are indeed domineering. The bald monks and nuns killed allPi, the general who led the army on the other side, waved his Zen stick and sword like a melon and vegetables after falling down. Once he succeeded, he immediately flew into the air to avoid the encirclement and suppression of the soldiers. At this time, Xu Shuangyi and others were hovering over the battlefield. The arrows they carried were larger than ordinary arrows. There are more archers, and the attack distance after firing the bow is also long. Therefore, every arrow shot will cause injury or death to the purple monks below. Thousands of archers are also frantically looking for the bald heads at this moment. The bald heads of monks and nuns are on the moon. It is particularly dazzling under the light of the sun, which provides convenience for the archers to find targets. They shoot wherever the light is bright. From time to time, you can hear the muffled groans of Buddhists being shot.
The war has been going on. At night, I finally ordered the troops to retreat. It was impossible not to withdraw the troops. The sky was completely dark, and ordinary soldiers could not see clearly what was around them. How could they fight if they stretched out their hands and wiped the darkness.
The Northern Qi Dynasty did not go after them. Although the purple energy of the Buddhist monks was more domineering than that of ordinary soldiers, the spiritual energy was precious and the inability to replenish the spiritual energy made all practitioners dare not waste the spiritual energy at will. If it were not for this restriction, just relying on Five hundred Ziqi monks and nuns are enough to kill the remaining soldiers of our army. Taking a step back and saying that if the spiritual energy can be replenished, Ye Aofeng and I are enough to kill everyone in the other country, so it is extremely wise for God to set this limit.
After the troops returned to the camp, they immediately counted the number of people. Because the battle line was too long, the statistics were not reported until the early morning. A piece of rice paper made my hands tremble. We had deployed millions of soldiers on the border. Lin Yi Cheng Nanzheng lost hundreds of thousands, and I transferred back 200,000. There are now only a fraction of the more than 600,000 soldiers of various types left. The people in the rear didn't know that such a big thing happened in the front. If Yang Zhong and Lin Yicheng knew that I was like this in the front, they would probably be trembling in more than just their hands.
"How many troops does the other side have?" I turned to the general who was responsible for checking the number of people.
"Visual inspection indicates that the camp is less than one hundred thousand." The other party considered the words. We can only roughly estimate how many troops Northern Qi has left.
"Use the command arrow to inform Chang'an of the battle situation here, and send the sixty-seven people back together. The prime minister will seal their thousands of households. General Yang will also be escorted back." I said after thinking for a long time. At the end of the war, sixty-seven people brought home bald heads. In fact, far more monks and nuns died, but most of the soldiers who took the heads failed to bring them back alive. In addition, Yang Yi was seriously injured and could not stay here.
In less than a hundred days since the birth of the Golden Dragon, I have defeated all the soldiers and horses of the two countries. The subsequent battles should focus on fighting skills and strategies. Lin Yicheng once said that Mei Zhu has a habit of playing chess. In fact, I also used this trick, because Lin Yicheng's confidence was greatly reduced after his failure in the Southern Expedition, and he has never been able to get over the shadow of failure. And I am not good at intrigues at all, so I can only use this stupid method to remove side issues and soldiers. It helps me focus my thinking more.
Although the opponent now has tens of thousands more soldiers than us, this does not affect the overall situation. Now that the war has started, I finally have the upper hand because I have 30% more spiritual energy than Ye Aofeng!
