Chapter 637: Deliberation
In the shamanic temple, the fire and candles were burning, and more than a dozen people were sitting here, but strangely none of them spoke.
The high priest's face was gloomy, and he looked at everyone present with a fierce expression, as if he might burst out at any moment and slash people. The spring sacrifice was blocked in Nancheng District last night, and it took several twists and turns to run back to the temple, which was also extremely embarrassing.
In addition to these two outer main priests, there were several high-ranking shamanic priests and more than a dozen high-ranking generals of the apologetic army. These generals bowed their heads in anxiety like frost-beaten eggplants, not daring to look at the murderous gaze of the high priest.
"Cowardly, you are the deputy commander of the Guardian Army, you come to tell me, how long will it take to drive out all the Han people who invaded the Xianbei Holy Land?!"
The high priest's wolf-like eyes stared at the Xianbei military general named Timid Qin, and asked coldly.
Beads of sweat immediately appeared on the door of the cowardly army, and the main leader of the cathar army led the army south to support Kebineng, and he was currently the highest-ranking general in the apologetic army. Originally, this acting commander was a good one, and when his boss was no longer there, he played a good role, but who knew that he would encounter this kind of thing.
The high priest's question could not be answered, so he carefully considered the wording, and said carefully: "High Priest, the Han people are overwhelming, and our army is insufficient, if we need to drive the Han people out of Dragon City, I am afraid it will take a little time!" ”
"How long is a little time? Is two days enough?! The high priest was not satisfied with this answer, and continued to press.
"Goo-dong!"
Cowardly swallowed quietly and swallowed, and now he also understood a little about the general situation in Dragon City. I also have a rough understanding of the approximate strength and combat effectiveness of the Pingzhou Assault Corps.
He said that driving the Pingzhou army out of Longcheng was originally a nonsense to deal with the high priest, and judging from the current combat strength of the two sides, it was completely unrealistic to drive the Pingzhou army out of Longcheng within two days, but it was more reliable for the Pingzhou army to completely capture Longcheng within two days.
Of course, this is something that can't be said and dare not say, Timid Qin gritted his teeth and said in a low voice: "I'm afraid two days is not enough, we need to wait for the various tribes outside Dragon City to gather troops after receiving the Heavenly Wolf Summoning Order, so that we can hopefully wipe out all the Han people who invaded Dragon City!" ”
In fact, Cowardly Qin lied again, even if the nearby tribes received the Heavenly Wolf's convening order, and immediately led the tribal army to arrive in strict accordance with the requirements of the Heavenly Wolf's convening order, the possibility of being able to wipe out the Pingzhou army was infinitely close to zero.
The Xianbei people have never been good at defending cities, and what they really are good at is mobile warfare. Trapped in the Dragon City and fighting a siege battle with the Pingzhou army, this was already half lost.
As for the tribes near Dragon City, what to say? It's not very appropriate to say that people are waste, at least the tribe is very wealthy, and it looks strong on the surface!
However, in all dynasties, how many empires have been able to successfully fight back after being attacked by the enemy?
As the deputy commander of the Dragon City Guardian Army, Cowardly Qin expressed serious doubts about the combat effectiveness of the tribal army around Dragon City!
Having said that, if they really had combat effectiveness, they wouldn't have been discovered by Shang Ji when they broke through to Dragon City for six hundred miles!
From a purely military point of view, the only chance to eliminate the Pingzhou assault group is to abandon Longcheng. With the existing elite of the apologetic army as the mainstay, and with the surrounding Xianbei tribal army, they blocked the Pingzhou army layer by layer and delayed their return time. At the same time, he contacted Kebineng and asked him to lead Xianbei's real elite main force to come back to help, and finally find an opportunity to eliminate the Pingzhou Expeditionary Group.
Of course, this kind of proposal is never dared to be said, and even any idea of giving up Dragon City is not daring to be revealed!
All the people present together can't bear the terrifying consequences of the fall of Dragon City, and even if they all die in Dragon City, they will definitely not be able to run away!
With the old spicy of the high priest, how could he not see the current situation clearly? But with the respect of the high priest, he still didn't dare to show the slightest intention of giving up Dragon City. On the contrary, he had to show great anger and make a gesture of driving the enemy out of Dragon City at all costs!
"Cowardice, I order you to immediately launch a counterattack against the Han army and recapture the inner city gate!"
Ti Qin's face was bitter, he knew what the high priest meant, it was impossible to counterattack and recapture the city gate, and the 50,000 elite Pingzhou army was stationed, even if all the troops that could be collected in Longcheng were gathered to attack, it may not be able to defeat it, but this posture of counterattack must be done sufficiently, and success or failure is secondary.
"Le Jin, you are responsible for recruiting warriors, and we also control most of the area of Dragon City, I order you to immediately recruit soldiers at all costs and strengthen our army as soon as possible!"
"Yes, High Priest!"
Another Xianbei general, Le Jin, stood up and replied.
"High Priest, the enemy army has several fierce generals, and their strength is very strong, if we don't solve them, we will lose three points before fighting with them."
This is the Xianbei military general who escorted the Quan Sacrifice back yesterday, and he was deeply impressed by the explosive combat effectiveness of Su Huan, Shang Ji, Zhao Yun and others. With these invincible generals, even the average army can exert 200% combat effectiveness, not to mention that the Pingzhou Expeditionary Force is still the elite of the elite!
The high priest did not respond to this general, but frowned, and turned his head to look at the spring priest who had been silent: "Spring priest, are those people really as powerful as rumored?" ”
The high priest was skeptical about the combat effectiveness of the Shang Ji people, how could they be so powerful? And how could such a powerful fierce general appear in a pile? According to rumors, in the entire Xianbei, Kebi can barely compete with the new inheritance, but Kebi can barely compete with it, but Kebi can be such an anti-heaven existence, and the entire Xianbei is the only one that scorpion!
The spring priest didn't seem to have recovered from yesterday's blow, his face was gray, his expression was sluggish, if it weren't for the fact that this meeting was related to Xianbei's life and death, he wouldn't want to come.
Hearing the high priest's inquiry, several demon-like figures appeared in the mind of the spring priest, and he trembled all over, and nodded with a little fear.
The high priest still trusted the spring sacrifice very much, and seeing him like this, the high priest didn't ask questions, but he already believed in the combat effectiveness of the Shang Ji and several people in his heart.
But in this way, the high priest suddenly felt even more headache.
The art of war of the Xianbei people is much simpler than that of the Han Dynasty, and the art of war, military formation, and strategy are all in a very primitive stage. The influence of an invincible general on the Xianbei army is far greater than that of the Han Dynasty.
There are more than five invincible generals, and all of them are in the opposite camp, which is tantamount to a disaster for Xianbei!
The hall fell silent again, and after a long time, I saw the high priest say slowly: "Spring sacrifice, you see, can we work the Holy Maiden......"
Before the high priest could finish speaking, he was pushed back by the idiotic gaze of the spring priest.
Well, the high priest also knows that it will definitely be useless to ask the holy maiden for help, and the holy maiden really appears on the battlefield, and it is not certain who to help when the time comes!
Although there is no clear confirmation, the Spring Priest and the High Priest have basically confirmed the identity of the Holy Maiden, thinking about what happened to her, the Holy Maiden of the High Priest Jue can stand by and remain neutral, she is worthy of Xianbei's worship these days!
In addition, this saint's identity is completely a crown unilaterally given by Xianbei, and she has never taken the initiative to admit it. Xianbei worships her as a saint, just to take the opportunity to hug her thighs!
"Aren't there a lot of bastards in Dragon City who boast of their strength on weekdays? Recruit them all into the army and work together to deal with the fierce generals of the Han army! ”
It is impossible to get help from the Holy Maiden, the high priest was also a little angry, and said coldly.
Everyone present was slightly stunned, but this order that could cause huge controversy in the past was easily passed.
Dragon City has a special status, and many tribal handsomes will send some of their favorite second sons to Dragon City, on the one hand, to avoid internal power struggles, and on the other hand, to find a way out for their beloved sons, and to continue the family bloodline by the way.
These people are generally powerful and have a lot of backers, and they have a kind of humble posture. In the past, the high priest had a lot of headaches for them, but today he was directly ruthless and sent them all to the battlefield!
Ti Qin bowed his head and said yes, while silently mourning for these second generations in his heart. To deal with the fierce generals of the Han army with the fists and embroidered legs of the second generation, the final result will not be much better than the slaughter.
However, in line with the principle that friends of the dead are not dead and poor, Cowardly Qin is very happy to see these second generations unlucky. He also doesn't have a good impression of these arrogant and domineering second generations who keep causing trouble
"My lord, my lord, oh no! Oh no!! ”
While everyone was discussing, a small priest ran in in a panic.
"What's the matter?!"
The High Priest stood up, and a sense of foreboding surged in his heart.
"My lord, those Han people have begun to attack, and now they have defeated the alert army we dispatched, and are currently approaching the inner city!"
", just after a night of fierce fighting, don't these Han people need to be repaired?" The high priest cursed in a low voice, but he didn't dare to delay at all, and said urgently: "Cowardice, you immediately lead the troops to stop it, Bo'er, Ponga, you lead the sacrificial group to assist Coward!" ”
"Yes!" Cowardly and several high-ranking priests hurriedly responded.
"Everyone, the survival of Dragon City is in your thoughts, I hope you can work together to resist foreign enemies and guard the pride of my people who draw the bow!"
"Follow the High Priest's commands!"
Everyone stood up and shouted, and the high priest nodded majestically, waving his hand to signal everyone to hurry back to their posts.
After a few moments, everyone withdrew, including the Izumi priest, and the high priest sat on his seat blankly, his eyes blank, not knowing what he was thinking.
"High priest, the situation is not optimistic, the villain thinks we still have to prepare early!"
A young Xianbei priest silently came to the high priest's side and whispered.
The high priest didn't speak, just nodded imperceptibly, and the young priest also didn't talk nonsense, and gently withdrew after getting the high priest's approval. Although this man does not have a high status in shamanism, he is the apprentice of the high priest, and it is rumored that the relationship between the two is not as simple as master and apprentice.
