Chapter 587: Retreat

Genius remembers in a second [Aishang Novel Network biquge.info] to provide you with wonderful novels to read.

Sun Jian looked at Bishui Pass and said: "According to my estimate, there should not be many such soldiers in the defenders in Bishui Pass, otherwise Huaxiong would not have refused to defend the city in such a low-key manner before, but took the initiative to attack us." Therefore, I think it is okay to fight, but this kind of war of attrition takes a long time, and now it is not early, it is better to withdraw the troops first! ”

Yang Tian looked at the sky, but it was not too early at this time, not to mention whether he could exhaust the strong army in Bishui Pass, it was difficult for the army on the city wall alone to fight. After all, anyone's strength has reached a certain level, and in the case of equal strength between the two, it is not an easy thing to distinguish the winner and loser, the Yanlong Halberd Guard and the Flying Bear Army are fighting, without the assistance of others, it is difficult for the two of them to distinguish the winner without fighting for forty or fifty rounds. It's not like a cannon fodder army rushing together and going on a slaughter frenzy, and then people fall to the ground one by one like wheat harvesting.

Therefore, although Yang Tian knew that the sooner the battle in Bishui Pass ended, the more beneficial it would be to the alliance camp, he still nodded and agreed with Sun Jian's opinion, anyway, the Yanlong Halberd Guards who remained on the city wall now were only about two or three thousand, and the rest of the people either had not climbed the city wall yet, or they must have fallen forever.

Sun Jian immediately ordered the commander Ming Jin to withdraw his troops, and then the sound of hitting cymbals resounded throughout the battlefield, and the troops who were rushing towards Bishui Pass were stunned for a moment, and then quickly retreated. And at this time, you can see the combat quality of an army, the ordinary army is like a swarm of bees turning their heads and running, invisibly leaving a lot of opportunities for the defenders on the city to attack, and many soldiers have fallen on the way to retreat. The elite armies are looking after each other, retreating slowly, and they can defend against enemy attacks, and the casualty rate becomes very low.

And those Yanlong halberd guards who had not yet climbed the city wall after hearing Mingjin's order. Although there was no commander-in-chief, they also began to retreat in an orderly manner, and on the battlefield, orders and prohibitions were the highest requirements, and no one involved in the battlefield could disobey them. Driven by them, the players around Wangtian City finally stabilized their formation and ran without turning around, which reduced their losses for them in disguise.

The troops on the walls were not so lucky, and they had to slide down the siege ladder to retreat. Otherwise, the height of about nine zhang is enough for most people to fall to pieces. But how could the defending army let them retreat? The moment the order sounded, their attacks became even more violent. Countless soldiers were killed by the enemy at the moment when they jumped up the siege ladder. Some were even pushed off the city wall by people and never got up again.

Tai Shi Ci after hearing the order to withdraw the army. While dealing with the constant influx of enemy troops around him, he beckoned the Yanlong Halberd Guard beside him to shrink his formation, and let those soldiers who were close to the siege ladder retreat first, while the rest stayed behind to cover first. And doing the same thing was Cao Fang, the deputy commander of the Yanlong Legion, who also asked the surrounding soldiers to evacuate as soon as possible.

Finally, after all the Yanlong halberd guards withdrew to the ground, Tai Shici and Cao Fang immediately used all their strength to force back the enemy forces around them. Then each grabbed a siege ladder, held it hard, and jumped to the ground, with their strength. In fact, even if you jump from this wall, you won't suffer any damage, except that there is a support point that allows them to jump farther.

From Sun Jian's order to withdraw the army to the withdrawal of the last soldier from the battlefield, it took nearly an hour. And in this hour, Sun Jian's army still paid a very huge price. Especially those player forces who took the initiative to join Sun Jian's command, half of the attrition was from their army.

Yang Tian also took stock of the losses of the Yanlong Legion. In the previous battle, although Yang Tian only sent out 10,000 Yanlong Halberd Guards, more than 2,000 people remained on the city wall forever, and with the strength of the Yanlong Halberd Guard, they suffered such huge losses, which shows the cruelty of the siege war, and at the same time, it can also see the strength of the Flying Bear Army that fought against the Yanlong Legion.

In fact, this is not the most severe battle loss of the Yanlong Legion, and even in the previous Xiliang Rebellion plot, the Yanlong Legion was even almost wiped out. But this is the most severe battle loss of the Yanlong Legion, because no matter how big the battle damage is, as long as it is in the story mission, it can be resurrected with points, and even later, the army of Baiyun City does not even need points, and directly spends some money to resurrect in the Tower of Reincarnation. But now it's different, not only is the point resurrection gone, but even the effect of the Tower of Reincarnation has been greatly limited. The more than 2,000 Yan Dragon Halberd Guards who were damaged in this battle were really killed in battle. As for the 1,000 resurrection places in the Tower of Reincarnation every month, Yang Tian didn't dare to decide to use them up now. After all, it is a two-front battle now, and there are a lot of ninth-order soldiers in the army led by Chen Gong to attack the national checkpoint, these are really baby bumps, and one less is enough for Yang Tian to feel distressed.

Since the soldiers killed in the battle cannot be resurrected, if the Yanlong Legion wants to make up for the reduced part, it has no choice but to recruit new soldiers, but fortunately, the soldiers in Baiyun City are still relatively sufficient, and they are not worried about not being able to recruit soldiers in a short time.

Of course, these war dead did not have any results, not to mention the large number of defenders killed before, just in the end, they fought with the Flying Bear Army and killed nearly 4,000 people on the other side, which is a very brilliant result, of course, among the 4,000 Flying Bear Army killed, at least 1,000 people were killed by Tai Shici and Cao Fang. However, this can't erase the exploits of these Flame Dragon Halberd Guards.

The reduction of soldiers did make Yang Tian feel a little distressed, but he did not have the slightest regret about participating in the Battle of Bishui Pass, aside from the points obtained, it was completely worth it just to capture Hua Xiong, the top general of the other party. If this guy knows someone and is willing to take refuge in him, then he will make a lot of money. If his estimate is not bad, this Huaxiong should also be a first-class general.

Afterwards, Sun Jian and Yang Tian led the army back to the place where they were encamped to rest and wait for the next day to continue the battle. And after the first qiē was arranged, it was dark.

……

The next night, Chen Gong gave an order, and all the Sea King giant ships and transport ships slowly marched along the cliff in the direction of the national checkpoint, in this dark night, and the sound of the waves was covered, Chen Gong was not worried that it would be discovered in advance by the defenders on the checkpoint.

When it was still about five hundred meters away from the national checkpoint, Chen Gong ordered the fleet to stop. Gan Ning jumped into the sea with the three hundred and nineth-order Jinfan sailors according to the previous arrangement, and at the same time, Huang Zhong and all the other ninth-order soldiers jumped into the sea. Although Huang Zhong and the others cannot be said to be proficient in water, they can still swim through the distance of 500 meters by relying on their extraordinary bodies. It's just that in the water, except for the fact that their defense has not changed, the rest of their combat effectiveness is basically equal to zero. Fortunately, with the protection of the three hundred sail sails, there is no need to worry about being attacked by small-scale sea beasts. Of course, Huang Zhong is not in the list of protection, although he is not good at water, but even if he is in the water, his strength is not comparable to those Jinfan sailors.

Soon, under the leadership of Gan Ning, nearly 2,000 people swam to the arch, and as soon as they arrived, Gan Ning found that there was a little light shining from the fence, and it seemed that the layout inside had undergone some changes. You must know that last night, the few shooting holes closest to the fence were unattended. But now that you can see the light inside before you reach the fence, it means that the shooting hole on duty has changed. Otherwise, with the not very bright torch in the shooting hole, it would never have been possible to spread the light so far.

Gan Ning immediately beckoned everyone to stop talking, and then slowly approached the fence alone, he needed to determine the location of the shooting holes that were left behind before making a decision.

Soon, Gan Ning found the target, it was the closest shooting hole to the fence, almost seven or eight meters high from the water, if this distance was placed on flat ground, Gan Ning could jump into it with a slight jump, but now it was on the water, but it was not easy to do. The water surface can't borrow strength, and being able to jump two or three meters out of the water is already Gan Ning's current limit, and seven or eight meters is obviously impossible.

At the same time, because of the distance of the shooting hole, he had no way of knowing how many defenders there were.

In desperation, Gan Ning had no choice but to retreat one after another and join Huang Zhong and others.

When Gan Ning told Huang Zhong the tangled question in his heart, a soldier beside him said softly: "Commander, can we enter through the manned shooting hole!" As long as you find a shooting hole close to the water, you can go in and open up the situation, maybe all the shooting holes are connected! ”

When Gan Ning heard this, he suddenly didn't think of such a simple question, it seems that this is really the legendary dark under the lamp! He only thought that those manned shooting holes would have to be pulled out first, but he didn't expect that he could also outflank them from other shooting holes! It seems that there must be a teacher in a threesome, and this is still very reasonable.

Then Gan Ning and Huang Zhongyi decided to set off together, and at the same time brought twenty Jinfan sailors.

Outside the fence, Gan Ning made a gesture to Huang Zhong and asked him to dive into the water with him, breaking the fence with him, and at the same time making Huang Zhong hold a reed pole in his mouth, which may seem inconspicuous, but it is very practical in the water.

The two of them dived to a depth of about three meters, Gan Ning grabbed Huang Zhong's hand and determined the location of the steel bar that needed to be destroyed for him, and then he himself took out the sea breaking halberd and poked at the steel bar. Of course, he only used a lot of force, and the range of action could not be very large, because he was afraid of making a noise and alarming the people in the shooting hole.

With the joint efforts of the two, in less than ten minutes, the fence was quietly opened by the two of them to a one-meter-square hole, even if two or three people can enter and exit at the same time. (To be continued)
