Chapter 0891: Strength Collision

PS: Thank you for the monthly pass of "Rain and Sunshine O(∩_∩"!

There is no strategy, there is no intrigue, only the collision of real forces, at this time, the two sides will compete with the will, is the persistence, is the belief that I am invincible. No matter how much stratagem and calculation there is, it only falls to the lower levels. Too much thought will only shake the belief in the heart, let the will be scattered, and the persistence will no longer be.

A day later, the first batch of Yuan troops appeared within ten kilometers of Wangshan Town, He Chong was less than three hours earlier than the Yuan army, after receiving the return, there was no time to rest, the first time with more than 1,000 Xihe foot soldiers attacked, the Yuan army was weak, did not dare to engage in battle, retreated.

Two hours later, the Yuan army returned, this time more than twice as many, apparently with a newly arrived force, numbering more than three hundred.

He Pet understood his task and did not dare to make it bigger, so he immediately replaced it with a new batch of soldiers who had rested for more than five hours, and the number of soldiers also increased to more than 1,500 people, once again deterring the elite cavalry of the Yuan army.

With the deepening of the war, the elite cavalry of the Yuan army also knew the Xihe infantry very well, although the Xihe infantry was also a foot soldier, but it was different from the army infantry they encountered in the past, and those infantry soldiers in the past were synonymous with foot soldiers - cannon fodder!

But the Xihe foot soldiers are different, they are not cannon fodder, on the contrary, their strength is very strong, and they cooperate with each other tacitly, once a battle formation is formed, the strength they exert is very terrifying. Even if the elite cavalry of the Yuan army relied on the superiority of cavalry to form a group impact and crush the elite of Xihe, the defects of the troops that could not be made up for by crushing the elite of Xihe, but the casualties paid were definitely not what any elite army wanted to see.

Returned. There was no surprise, after discovering that the enemy had increased again, the elite cavalry of the Yuan army estimated the difference in strength between the two sides. It was found that it was still a situation of both sides losing and even winning miserably.

After shooting two rounds of arrows in a row, they found that the Xihe formation was not chaotic, and launched a counterattack in the second round, and the enthusiasm of the Yuan army suddenly dropped to the bottom, and they did not want to spend more horsepower, so they could only leave with a lack of interest.

After this time. After a whole day's work, the Yuan army did not appear again within a radius of ten kilometers outside Wangshan Town.

He Pet did not take this lightly, because the expedition sent out returned. There are more and more elite cavalry of the Yuan army around, and they seem to have a tendency to pass around Xuanque City.

In fact, if you want to enter Fenzhou from Sichuanzhou, Xuanque City is an unavoidable hurdle. The difference is only the distance from Xuanque City.

Who made Xuanque City stand right in the center of Chuanzhou?

And the more away from the edge of Sichuan State. The more mountains are covered, everyone knows that the mountains are another battlefield of the Xihe Army, and Wuliang Hetai will naturally not be bored.

Therefore, bypassing Xuanque City is the only way to go.

He Pet's pressure was too great, and the sense of oppression that the mountain rain was about to come, so he didn't sleep well all night. Coupled with the day and night rush last year, it was basically two days without rest.

The next day it was dawning. The elite cavalry of the Yuan army came to Wangshan Town at a very fast speed, and their purpose was already very obvious, that is, to exterminate the Xihe Army in Wangshan Town, occupy Wangshan Town, and try to cross Xuanque City safely.

Xuanque City is the last gaterail for the Yuan army to enter Sichuanzhou, and after that, the Xihe Army has no better geographical environment to intercept the Yuan army. Therefore, before the main force of the Xihe Army is encircled, before the main force arrives, it is imperative to clear the obstacle of Wangshan Town.

The speed at which the Yuan army came was very fast, without the slightest warning, and when Tanma reported the news, the elite cavalry of the Yuan army was not far from Wangshan Town.

Hurriedly gathered his troops, and He Pet was directly blocked in Wangshan Town.

He Pet was not discouraged, and simply relied on Wangshan Town to defend it, the city of Wangshan Town is not high, the combination of civil and engineering, about four meters, and at the same time very weak, less than one meter thick. In such a city, the cavalry could not rush in, but the siege equipment could easily smash a hole, and then the cavalry could easily drive straight in.

"It's okay......!"

Standing on the city wall and observing carefully, He Pet was relieved, the Yuan army did not bring siege equipment, think about it, all the way from Fuzhou, you have to keep running all the time, who has time to carry siege equipment that hinders the hands and feet?

"Raise your shield, defend!"

Without the order of He Pet, the centurion and the ten masters everywhere shouted loudly, awakening the attention of their companions, and the Xihe army standing on the city wall, the first row of half-squatting and brushing together erected shields, the second row raised shields diagonally, and the third row held up shields. On top of this small city wall more than one meter wide, an impermeable shield wall was formed to defend against the direct and projectile shots of the Yuan cavalry.

Woohoo Woo Woo ............!!!

As expected, the elite cavalry of the Yuan army performed their usual greeting salute, and less than a hundred meters from the city wall was a volley.

Listening to the sound of dong, a young Xihe soldier muttered in a low voice: "Tut, if only some horse traps were dug outside at that time, there would have been more than fifty Yuan army elite horsemen in this round!" ”

"You kid be attentive!" The veteran of Xihe, who was standing behind him and holding his shield aloft, whispered: "Don't pretend to understand if you don't understand, if you have the strength to dig a pit, who will fight when the time comes?" ”

"Hey, that's not just a casual thing! Don't mind. It is better to concentrate on the enemy! The young Xihe soldier hurriedly finished his words and made up his mind not to say anything again. Who likes to scold, and it's still looking for scolding at this time, it's just boring to find yourself yourself.

The generals of the Yuan Army, who led the team, were a little disappointed when they saw that the rain of arrows did not have an effect, but they did not have a fever in their heads, and still acted according to the plan in an orderly manner.

"What to do? Facing the battle, or relying on Wangshan Town to defend it? Seeing that the Yuan army no longer attacked, but began to rest less than a kilometer outside the town, He Chong immediately understood that the Yuan army was planning to scare himself away, but unfortunately his task was to intercept the Yuan army at any cost, and buy time for the infantry in the rear to arrive, where could he retreat?

"Out of the city, no, no, let's use Wangshan Town to defend, although the walls of Wangshan Town are low, it is better than nothing!" There are many advantages of going out of the city, taking advantage of the fact that the Yuan army's soldiers and horses have not arrived, paying a part of the price to drive out these Yuan troops, which can boost morale and demoralize the Yuan army, and at the same time make the Yuan army unable to figure out his reality and delay the time longer.

But the disadvantages of going out of the city to engage in the battle are also obvious, no one knows if there is a Yuan army secretly peeping ten miles away, with these more than 500 Yuan army elite cavalry, one can not be entangled, and when the follow-up Yuan army arrives, then the whole army may be wiped out.

After all, He Pet didn't have that sharp spirit, and felt that it was better to complete Zhang Yuan's task, and he didn't dare to take risks. (To be continued......)
