Chapter 260, Mistakes
The furnace tactics designed by Jun Moxie were not just to burn some enemy soldiers, his main purpose was to demoralize the enemy.
If it was just to kill and injure some enemy soldiers, Jun Moxie would be reluctant to set fire to the two army forts.
Although the enemy had already attacked the Great Army Fort at that time, don't forget that the Great Army Fort and Liumang City are connected, and the army in the city can continue to support them.
The reason why he chose to set fire to the army fort was entirely because the enemy's morale was relatively strong, and he wanted to take this opportunity to pit the enemy fiercely, knowing that he designed these army forts not only for defense.
The basement of each army fort outside Liumang City is filled with a large amount of firewood and fire oil, as long as it is ignited, the fire cannot be extinguished, but this is only some that can be seen on the surface, and there are many arrangements that cannot be seen by the enemy.
The dry wood and fire oil in the basement of the Great Army Fort were only used to start the fire, and Jun Moxie's real killing move was the city wall of the Great Army Fort.
The 30-meter-high walls of the Great Army Fort appear to be made of stones, but in fact they are inside.
The walls of the Great Army Fort are divided into three tiers, the outermost and innermost layers are made of stone, and the middle layer is wooden.
The design of the Twin Stones is a means used by the Great Army Fort to attack the enemy.
As soon as the firewood in the basement of the Great Army Fort is ignited, the wooden structure in the middle of the city wall will eventually start burning as the fire grows larger.
Once this layer of wood begins to burn, the entire structure of the Great Army Fort will be devastated, and the entire Great Army Fort will fall to the ground.
If the enemy is still attacking the city at this time, then the final result can be imagined.
Two 30-meter-high military forts will not only bury a large number of enemies, but also severely damage the morale of the enemy, because this kind of unguardable unknown is the most terrifying.
But it's a pity that Bai Ze's timely withdrawal of troops saved the Condor Leader's army from such a blow.
So, why did Bai Ze choose Mingjin to withdraw his troops in time? Did he foresee this?
How could it be, Bai Ze was a human and not a god, it was impossible for him to predict that there would be such a cat hidden in the Great Army Fort.
The reason why Bai Ze chose Mingjin to withdraw his troops was entirely because he saw that the two army forts had been turned into furnaces.
Seeing the smoke rising from the top of the Great Army Fort, Bai Ze knew that the enemy must have prepared a large amount of combustibles at the bottom of the castle, and looking at the flame tongue, it could burn for at least half a day.
After the Great Army Fort is turned into a furnace, the temperature around it will definitely be very high, and the soldiers of the Condor Leader are all wearing heavy armor, which is not suitable for fighting in such high temperatures.
Anyway, the two army forts have been abolished, and there is no difference between attacking the city today and attacking the city tomorrow, so Bai Ze chose the plan that was most beneficial to his side in a moment, so he let the Condor Leader avoid the enemy's most fatal blow.
Not long after the siege army led by the Condor retreated, the two large army forts collapsed.
Looking at the picture of smoke and dust billowing in the distance, Bai Ze suddenly broke out in a cold sweat, and he couldn't help but be afraid for a while, fortunately he withdrew the army in time, otherwise he would have really suffered heavy losses.
This kind of earth-shattering disaster is simply not something that manpower can resist, and at that time, the Condor Leader will not only lose soldiers, but also the morale of the entire army will suffer a huge blow, and may even directly affect the next siege.
Through this incident, Bai Ze became even more jealous of the other party's lord, whom he had never met.
Being able to come up with such a poisonous strategy, and having been carefully prepared for so long, the other party is definitely not an easy person, and if he is not careful, his reputation will probably be planted in the hands of the other party.
Although the two army forts collapsed, Bai Ze and Jun Moxie didn't move, they still stayed in their respective positions, quietly looking at each other.
In the same way that Bai Ze felt about himself, Jun Moxie also felt tremendous pressure on Bai Ze.
Whether Bai Ze guessed his plan or avoided it like a big luck, he deserved his respect.
What are the most important qualities of a good commander?
It's a matter of making a decision.
Because a lot of times, things are broken by the fact that they are constantly interrupted.
No matter what reason Bai Ze chose to retreat, it was worth him to face this opponent, because the decisive character of the other party was the most feared.
You must know that at that time, the army of the Condor Leader had already broken through the two large army forts, and their morale was high.
Although the Great Army Fort was ignited from the inside, at that time, the Condor Leader was the dominant and active side, and they could have directly attacked the walls of Liumang City in one go, because the two obstructive Great Army Forts had been abolished.
At that time, the siege had just begun, and the soldiers of the Condor Leader were at their most vigorous in terms of physical strength and morale.
In this case, the average commander will definitely take the opportunity to launch a fierce attack on the city wall, because the defenders on the wall at this time must be the demoralized side, they will not give the enemy any respite, and such a good opportunity does not come every day.
But the enemy's commander chose Mingjin to withdraw his troops, and he made his choice when the Great Army Fort was just ignited, which is definitely not something that ordinary people can have.
Jun Moxie would never believe that the enemy boss had seen through his plan, because he had been preparing for this for so long, and outsiders would not know about it at all.
And no matter how you look at it, the Great Army Fort is a very strong, easy to defend fortress, and no one would have thought that their real purpose was to attack.
Therefore, it is very terrible for the enemy coach to choose to withdraw at this time.
Sometimes two good commanders compete not only in their own ability to strategize, but also in luck.
Luck is also what the ancients often said about a fixed number, and there is a providence in the underworld.
There's no scientific basis for this, but sometimes you have to believe it, because many people have experienced it firsthand.
Even in the end, they themselves couldn't say exactly what happened, but it did happen.
What children of fate, what chosen ones, are those who are extremely lucky.
And when it comes to luck, Jun Moxie's face can't help but turn dark, because since he entered this game, his face has been very dark.
If there is really any child of destiny and the chosen one, then it is definitely not him, at most he is the group of people who finally succeeded through their own hard work.
Could it be that Ning Yuan is the child of destiny in this game?
Thinking of the Son of Destiny, Jun Moye couldn't help but mutter, because he knew that Ning Yuan's luck in this game was indeed very good, so he instinctively thought that Ning Yuan was commanding the battle at the moment.
If he knew that at this moment, Ning Yuan was boringly scribbling on the ground dozens of kilometers away, he was afraid that he would be so angry that a mouthful of old blood would spurt out directly.
