Chapter 990: Fight Again

This bloody battle, from dawn to dark.

In one day, both sides left behind 20,000 or 30,000 corpses, and countless more were wounded. At the moment when the night completely fell, the soldiers on both sides, no matter who it was, were relieved.

Although both sides are elite soldiers, they have great courage on the battlefield. But the number of casualties is too large, and no one dares to guarantee whether it will be themselves who will die next.

When night fell, and at the end of the day, the soldiers naturally breathed a sigh of relief.

When night falls, Yixian County guards the house.

Kou Feng sat on the throne, and there was only one Pang Tong below. Kou Feng is the Son of Heaven and has no chance to fight outside. Pang Tong, as a general, should have been on the front line.

However, Kou Feng considered that with Pang Tong's bones, he might be shot to death if he reacted slowly, so he ordered Pang Tong to stay in the city.

When night fell, Kou Feng got up and said, "It should be over, go to the city with Gu to inspect it." ”

"No." Pang Tong promised and got up.

Immediately, Kou Feng led Pang Tong and Kou Shui to the North City Gate together. At this moment, the sky had completely darkened, and countless torches had been erected on the city walls, shining on the city walls.

In front of the women's wall, there were countless soldiers, some of whom were tired and fell asleep. Some were wounded and wailed on the ground. Some of them are cold.

War is always accompanied by huge casualties.

It's brutal. Kou Feng was a great man in the war, and he saw countless deaths. But at the moment, there is still some compassion. Walk past one soldier after another, and listen to the wailing.

But Kou Feng quickly became firm again, because he knew that this was the way to go. First there was chaos, and then there was great governance. In the era of human rule, the only thing he could do was to calm the world and bring about the next prosperous era.

And try to expand the territory and stabilize the interior.

"Your Majesty."

At this time, Zhang Fei came to Kou Feng's side and bowed.

"Uncle, take care of the injured as much as possible. When I go back, I will report to Gu Yu. Kou Feng said, now is not the time for Zhang Fei to report to him, but the time for Zhang Fei to take care of the injured.

"No." Zhang Fei agreed, turned around and continued to do his job.

Kou Feng also continued to inspect the city walls, and did not do anything to the fallen soldiers, but only passed through them. Show that the Son of Heaven of Chu will not stay away from his soldiers.

Soon, Kou Feng finished inspecting the north city wall, and then, Kou Feng inspected the east and west of the city. After inspecting the city walls, it was about an hour and a half later.

At this time, Kou Feng and Pang Tong, Kou Shui and others did not finish eating. Kou Feng didn't want to eat it, because it was time for Zhang Fei, Deng Ai, and Chen Da to appear next.

Kou Feng had to know about today's battle situation, as well as his own losses, enemy losses, and so on.

Soon after Kou Feng returned to the hall of the Taishou Mansion, Deng Ai, Chen Da, and Zhang Fei all rushed back one after another.

"Your Majesty."

Zhang Fei was the last to walk in and saluted Kou Feng.

Kou Feng looked at Zhang Fei, he didn't see much clearly on the city wall just now, and at this moment, Zhang Fei's face was full of tiredness. Not only do you have to dodge arrows from under the city, but you also have to take care of the injured afterwards, which is very stressful.

"The general is fortunate." Because it was a more formal occasion, the general called Zhang Fei after Kou Feng. Immediately, he said, "Sit." ”

"Thank you, Your Majesty." Zhang Fei thanked him and sat down in an empty position.

"With Lone, how about the casualties. How is the offensive of the Ma Teng army under the city? ”

Kou Feng looked around at the generals and asked.

Deng Ai and Chen Da set their eyes on Zhang Fei, and they knew that the North City Gate was the key.

"The offensive was fierce, and the deaths on both sides were in the tens of thousands. The last general calculated the proportion of casualties, probably Chu Jun one, and Ma Teng Jun one plus two percent. ”

Zhang Fei said in a deep voice.

One to two.

This number of words made Kou Feng and Pang Tong's hearts sink.

Casualties in siege battles are generally around one to two. And now it is actually one to one, which means that Ma Teng can crush them by relying on the advantage of numbers.

I didn't expect that even if it was a siege war, the tiger and leopard cavalry would have such a great deterrent power.

"What about us?"

After a short period of digestion, Kou Feng raised his head and asked Chen Da, Deng Aidao.

"In the west of the city, it is about one to one plus fifty. The offensive was no less fierce

"The east of the city is about the same as the west of the city." Deng Ai also said.

Kou Feng's heart sank even more, even if it was the Xiliang soldiers, it was a one-to-five casualty. It's a visual inspection, but it should be pretty much the same.

Zhang Fei, Deng Ai, and Chen Dake are not fledglings.

"Actually, it's already very good, this is the result of the protection of the city wall, if there is no city wall, we encounter tigers and leopards in the wild, I'm afraid it will be really difficult."

The atmosphere was a little overwhelming, and Pang Tong suddenly said with a smile.

"Also, Lonely's heart is a little bigger." Kou Feng suddenly said with a smile.

Immediately, Kou Feng raised his head and looked at the many generals in the hall, and said, "Even if we fight all the troops here, as long as we fight Ma Teng and Cao Hong, it will be a big victory." When the time comes, sit in Tongguan and watch Xu Shu, Lu Xun, Huang Zhong and others lead the troops to fight Cao Cao. ”

This is the existing advantage of the Chu State, as long as this side remains undefeated, it will be able to drag Cao Cao down. is also the reason why Kou Feng chose to stick to it, it is a fool not to have an advantage.

"No."

Zhang Fei, Deng Ai, and Chen Daqi all responded to the promise.

"Alright. Let's all go down and rest. It is estimated that Ma Teng will attack again tomorrow. ”

Kou Feng said.

"No." The generals said yes again, and simply turned around and left. I'm really tired today, and they all need to get some rest.

"Although, even if we fight all the soldiers, as long as we can defeat Ma Teng and Cao Hong, it will be our victory. But Lone didn't want that. Lonely will not be reconciled. Now I can only put the heavy bet on the broken army. ”

After the generals left, Kou Feng said to Pang Tong.

"With 8,000 broken troops, can you resist tens of thousands of tigers and leopards?" Pang Tong's face was a little hesitant.

Although the ability to break the army is unparalleled in the world. But after all, there are too many differences in numbers.

"So, let's consume a little bit of the tiger and leopard ride first. Ten days, ten days of bloody battle. After ten days, the army was broken out and the tiger and leopard riders were destroyed. Ace against ace. It is estimated that as soon as the tiger and leopard are wiped out, the morale of the coalition forces of these three countries should also drop significantly, or even collapse. ”

Kou Feng said calmly.

"Raise your energy."

Pang Tong nodded, thinking it was feasible.

……………

Outside the city, in the Ma Teng camp, inside the Chinese army's tent.

Ma Teng, Pang De, and Cao Hong sat in a row, and the faces of the three of them were very solemn.

"The casualties of the tiger and leopard riders are very high." Cao Hongdao, his voice was very suppressed.

"Although we relied on the superiority of cavalry, there was a certain reduction in casualties. However, attacking a city with cavalry is a stupid thing, and if you want to take a city, you may try your best. ”

Pound generally doesn't speak, but when he speaks, he is to the point. He strongly disapproved of attacking Yixian. Don't be a tiger and leopard cavalry, even the Xiliang cavalry is very elite.

Now it's just cannon fodder.

"Time waits for no one, and it's not like we don't know. Chu Guoxing has raised another three-way army, Xu Shu, Huang Zhong, and Lu Xun, and has already completely encircled and attacked Wei."

Ma Teng could feel the pain in Cao Hong and Pang De's hearts, because he was also distressed. But the current situation can only be desperate.

Even if there is blood in your heart, move forward. If the Wei State is finished, they will also be finished.

Ma Teng's words made Cao Hong wake up a little, and he let out a long sigh: "Alas. ”

"Tomorrow will continue to attack the city, and Kou Feng, who is not allowed to stay, will be out of breath. Speed up the war as much as possible, lest you really fight a single soldier. ”

After a moment of silence, Ma Teng ordered.

"No."

Cao Hong and Pang De agreed, and then walked out of the big tent together.

"It's harder than you think. Although it is absurd for the Qiang cavalry to attack the city, it is ridiculous enough for us to attack the city with horse infantry troops. Ma Teng let out a long sigh, his face full of helplessness.

Now the initiative is completely in Kou Feng's hands, there is really no way, no way.

The commanders of both sides are determined to win this war. Therefore, it is absolutely not going to give up, although the casualties on the first day are very large.

But the next day, when it was dawning.

Outside the city, the earth-shattering drums sounded again, and not only was the momentum not half a point weaker than yesterday, but seemed to be stronger.

In the north of the city, Zhang Fei was already wearing armor, and he stood on the bloodstained city wall, his face was very solemn.

"Your Majesty is not wrong, Ma Teng will not stop. This war must be seen to be life and death before it can end. Zhang Fei sighed in his heart when he saw Ma Teng's army dispatched.

If the elite level of the two armies is not much different. The more frequent the fight, the more advantageous it is for the side with the largest number of people. Because there are more people, there are more choices.

Even if one batch is injured, another batch can be topped.

And the side with fewer people can replace the fewer people. Therefore, at the end of the battle, the Chu army in the city may all be wounded, and the Ma Teng army outside the city may still have a group of soldiers who can fight again.

That's where the gap lies. Even with the protection of the city walls, it cannot be compensated.

Of course, Zhang Fei hopes to take a break and give them a little respite, but it is obviously unlikely.

"Let's get started, cheer up." When the drums became louder and louder, and when the tiger and leopard riders launched a charge again, Zhang Fei's eyes flashed, put away the sigh in his heart, turned into a heart full of perseverance, and shouted.

After many years of fighting on the battlefield, Zhang Fei knows that the battlefield is like this, some have a favorable side, and the enemy also has it. It is impossible for the enemy to choose the most advantageous way to fight.

Sometimes, it's inevitable to be passive.

Now all they have to do is grit their teeth and persevere, overcome the difficulties, and wait for the moment of victory
