Chapter 880: The Battle of the Canyon (4)
The soldier is also treacherous.
The main reason why Bai Ze was able to become the most outstanding marshal of the Condor Empire was because no one had ever been able to figure out all his hole cards, and no one had been able to force out all his hole cards.
Ning Yuan has been tempered by so many years of war, although he has made great progress, compared with Bai Ze, he still has a lot of room for improvement in terms of strategy and tactics.
Although the strategy for attacking the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau this time was nominally formulated by Ning Yuan, Bai Ze and others, in fact, it was Bai Ze who had been controlling the strategic situation on the entire Qinghai-Tibet Plateau.
In fact, when the Condor Army came to Lhasa, there was no way to reverse the situation on the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau.
Because Bai Ze has a total of 50,000 silver Pegasus knights in his hands, as long as he is willing, then the army of Tiger Picking Sun will not be able to get close to the Nianqing Tanggula Mountain Range at all.
At this time, if he were to be Ning Yuan, it was estimated that he would personally lead the Silver Pegasus Knights to take the initiative to attack, after all, when he had the advantage, he liked to go all out and not give the enemy any respite.
However, Bai Ze directly chose to show weakness to the enemy, and he deliberately sent a small number of Silver Pegasus Knights to harass the enemy, making the enemy think that the number of Silver Pegasus Knights who invaded the Lhasa area was limited.
The reason why Bai Ze made such a choice was mainly because he was very aware of the importance of the identity of Tiger Picking Ri, the great prince of the Linhai Empire, and he didn't want to leave Tiger Picking Day any chance to escape, and wanted to cut off Tiger Picking Day's vitality one hundred percent.
Although the Silver Pegasus Knight also has a high chance of chasing Tiger Picking Sun to death, there is no guarantee that the success rate is 100%.
To the west of Naqu is the vast northern Tibetan uninhabited area, if Hu Jieri is bent on escaping, then as long as he can escape into the northern Tibetan no man's land, there is still a slight chance that he can escape and ascend to heaven.
Once he escapes by Tiger Picking Sun and gains the support of those hostile forces who hate the Condor Empire, then the stability of the Xinjiang region will be greatly affected, after all, it was once the lair of the Linhai Empire, so he must see the corpse of Tiger Picking Sun with his own eyes.
In order to completely cut off the slightest theoretical possibility of escape from the Tiger Picking Sun, Bai Ze chose the battlefield of the decisive battle in the Yangbajing Basin, which only has two exits in the north and south.
After introducing the Tiger Picking Japanese army into the Yangbajing Basin, Bai Ze, who had already occupied an absolute advantage, still did not choose to play the hole cards at one time, and he continued to choose the tactics of showing weakness to the enemy.
Bai Ze first asked the blood-based vampire army to destroy half of the enemy's owl army, and then asked a silver Pegasus knight to use the tactic of luring the enemy deep into the other half of the owl army.
After the enemy's Owl Legion fell into the encirclement, the 10,000 Silver Pegasus Knights who were ambushed in the camp immediately killed and successfully annihilated all the enemy Owl Legions that had broken away from the Tiger Army.
After losing the cover of the Owl Legion, it was very difficult for the Tigers to break through the stone wall three or four meters high with only some simple ladders.
Although the tigerman warriors are very good at bouncing, the same tiger warriors guarding the stone wall are also tiger warriors, one is condescending, and the other is about to rush up from below, which side has the advantage is very obvious.
Although they were unable to recover the Owl Legion that had broken away from the Tigers, and the terrain was very unfavorable to the Tigers, Tiger Harvest Day still did not stop the Tigers' attack.
While he sent people back to the barracks to bring the 20,000 resting owl troops to the battlefield, he kept a close eye on the upcoming battle.
Hu Rui led the 8,000 Tiger Army and suddenly increased the speed of its march when it advanced to a distance of only a hundred meters from the city wall.
Under the command of Hu Rui, the soldiers of the Tiger Army stood very open, and as they sprinted, they quietly pulled their axes from their waists.
The flying axes on the Tigers' waists can be used to carry out semi-long-range attacks, in addition to dealing with enemies in the air.
After losing the cover of the Owl Legion, the Tiger Army is at an absolute disadvantage in terms of geography, so Hu Rui wants to use the flying axe to suppress the enemy on the stone wall.
The Tiger Warriors are tall and powerful, and the axes they throw at a distance of fifty meters are very destructive.
In the face of the Tigers' axe attacks, even the Snow Mountain Legion had to avoid its edge.
Hu Rui planned to use the continuous flying axe attacks to suppress the Snow Mountain Legion on the stone wall, so as to buy a precious time for the Tiger soldiers who arrived at the bottom of the stone wall.
"Raise your shield."
Sure enough, after seeing the Tiger Army take out the flying axes from their waists, the soldiers of the Snow Mountain Army on the stone wall immediately raised their shields.
Although the strength of the Snow Mountain Legion was not much worse than that of the Tiger Army, at this time, the difference between the descendants and the non-descendants was clearly revealed.
Since the Snow Mountain Legion is not a descendant of the Tiger Picking Day, they must be ranked behind the Tiger Army no matter what they do, and before the Tiger Army is fully equipped with flying axes, there is no share of the flying axes produced by the Linhai Empire.
If the soldiers of the Snow Mountain Army also have flying axes in their hands at this time, then they can take the lead in launching a long-range attack on the Tiger Army by virtue of their height advantage.
Unfortunately, they haven't been able to equip their axes yet, so they can only raise their shields for defense.
The reason why Tiger Picking Day continued to send the Tiger Army to attack after losing the cover of the Owl Legion was because the Tiger Army was equipped with flying axes, while the Snow Mountain Army was not equipped yet.
Just as the Tiger soldiers in the front row were about to enter the firing range of fifty meters, a dense black shadow suddenly appeared in the sky in front of them.
With a sharp sound of breaking through the air, the black shadow pierced through the bodies of the Tiger soldiers before they could react.
Yes!
As the black shadow fell rapidly, the Tiger soldiers in front of them suddenly suffered heavy casualties, and many Tiger soldiers were all nailed to the ground, and those who were not dead kept letting out bursts of wails.
"Stop moving forward and retreat to a hundred meters away."
When Hu Rui saw clearly that the rapidly falling black shadows were javelins that shone with cold light, he immediately roared loudly.
Upon hearing the order, the soldiers of the Tiger Army immediately braked sharply, and then turned around and ran to the rear.
Hu Rui's reaction speed was already very fast, but from the time the Tiger Army launched a charge to the time when he turned and retreated, a total of five waves of javelin rain flew from the direction of the stone wall.
The sudden javelin rain directly caught the Tiger Army off guard, and although their positions were already scattered, the five waves of javelin rain still nailed three or four hundred Tiger soldiers directly to the ground.
