"The time is just right, and I still have some time to fill in the trench!"

Xu Ze rode a fast horse to the forefront and inspected the city of Erdenet opposite.

At the east gate of Erdenet, a fire was set on the stone from Mengshi, and Butai simply demolished the messy grass shed outside the city, and vigorously recruited the people to dig out dozens of trenches, the trenches crisscrossed and connected with each other, and were three or four meters deep, which was very similar to the posture of the Xihe Army when defending against the iron cavalry of the Yuan Army.

"General, did you send those captives to fill the trenches? Or wait for the follow-up troops to come and do the action? Xu Ze's lieutenant Zhou Chang asked.

"No, we can't wait for them to come, only if we don't put enough pressure here, the others can come quickly. Now send new recruits to fill the ditch first, and the veterans will assist and warn from the side! Those captives will be used when the city is really attacked, and if they are released at this time, they will only be beaten with meat buns and dogs, and there will be no return! Xu Ze shook his head cautiously and refused the adjutant general's offer.

Casualties are inevitable, but you can't choose the opportunistic path because of casualties, which will only make you more passive, and even lose the whole battle.

"My subordinates understand!" Zhou Chang stopped talking.

Xu Ze nodded, looked at the city wall in the distance, and said: "Well, yesterday He Yuan, Meng Wei, and Sun Ye have already gone to war, this time you will take them to supervise those prisoners, and choose a place to build a camp in the rear!" ”

"Whoa!" Zhou Chang left in response.

After Zhou Chang left, Xu Ze asked the guards to gather his commanders, and after the commanders arrived one after another, Xu Ze already had a preliminary plan in his heart.

"I think. You've seen all of this, right? Xu Ze pointed to the trench and said.

Without waiting for the commanders who looked at each other to understand, Xu Ze said directly: "That's right, the Yuan army has begun to learn from our Xihe army." They want to use the trench to delay our degree, and they want to get us caught in the meat grinder! ”

"But, I would say, they're just a façade!" Xu Ze said loudly: "That's right, if they do this, it will cause us a lot of trouble, and we want to attack the city." These trenches must be filled, but they will use the cover of these trenches. We are constantly sending troops to engage with us in short combat. And the problem is that we don't have so many troops to consume with them, and our soldiers are very expensive, and they are all elite soldiers who have been trained at great expense. There are a lot of miscellaneous armies in Taitai. Young and strong. They can consume one of us out of ten! ”

"But what about this?" As soon as the words changed, Xu Ze sneered and said, "The narrow trench restricts the swing of our soldiers, but it also limits their numerical advantage. And, let's not forget, our trenches were mainly used to defend against their cavalry, but what about ourselves? We don't have many cavalry, most of us are foot soldiers, how big of a threat can such a trench be to us? ”

"Training. It's not a threat to me, it's the best place to train. Just to polish those who have just joined us. Recruits who haven't fully integrated into our ranks yet! Xu Ze smiled, especially after seeing the worries and worries on the faces of these commanders under him swept away, he was relieved.

After seeing these criss-crossing trenches, Xu Ze was very worried that his subordinates would be affected.

After all, since the war with the Yuan army, the trench can be said to be one of the sharp weapons in the hands of the Xihe army against the elite cavalry of the Yuan army, and no one knows better than them how difficult and vicious these seemingly simple things are.

Now that the Yuan army is using them on their own bodies, that kind of taste, that kind of blow, if it is not solved immediately, it will probably be fatal.

Now it seems that Xu Ze knows that his words have had an effect.

"Next, I will set up the task, let us destroy this trench with our own hands, and tell the Yuan army on the other side, things are only effective in our hands, and they will only dig out some things that are not on the surface!" Xu Ze pointed to the city wall and said, "Before the boss arrives, I will take you to climb this city wall, do you have confidence?" ”

"There is ......!!!!" The blood of the commanders of Xihe was boiling, and they roared in unison.

When Xu Ze arranged the task, more than half an hour had passed, and the Xihe soldiers who rushed all the way were relieved.

"The Xihe Army has not retreated for a long time, it seems that they want to test it!"

For this army that does not play cards according to common sense, Butai has long been accustomed to it, and the Xihe soldiers not only make Butai envious in terms of elite and cooperation, but also make Butai even more puzzled, why they can still put themselves into the battlefield as soon as possible when they are in a hurry every day and night, and their strength has not decreased much.

And it is precisely because I can't figure it out that I am even more envious, jealous and hateful.

Butai thought about it for a while, but he still didn't feel at ease and ordered: "Come on, arrange a team of archers to line up in the middle of the trench!" ”

The trenches crisscross and criss-cross, with a diameter of more than 500 meters, densely packed with more than 30 trenches, and a depth of three or four meters makes people feel like they are in a labyrinth.

Before the archers team left the city, Butai saw that the Xihe army had begun to move, more than 300 carefully selected Xihe elite soldiers rushed into the trench with shields and weapons, and at the first time to impact the passage of the Yuan army, after holding the passage connected to other places, the Yuan soldiers lost their support, only held on for a while, and were killed one after another.

"Juniors dare to compete with me?"

Butai looked at this qiē on the city wall, his face turned blue for a while, you must know that the people he arranged in the front few lines of defense were not those who were temporary, but the real elite of the Yuan army. He can accept defeat, after all, the Yuan army is not good at defense, but if it is defeated so quickly, it is not just not as simple as not being good at defense.

In Butai's view, this is slapping him in the face, and the other general's daring to know that the opponent he has to face is himself, and he dares to make such a neat shot, that is not to put him in his eyes, which makes Butai how not to be angry.

"Pass the order, remove the defenses of the first five provinces, and give them all to these Xihe troops!" At the same time, Butai also stopped half of the archers who had gone out of the city, and when this qiē was done, Butai folded his arms unhurriedly, ready to see what Xu Ze would do next.

"It is worthy of being the national pillar of the Yuan Dynasty, so lightweight, but it forced me into a corner!" Xu Ze is not a stupid person, the changes in the Yuan army are all in his eyes, and he can't advance or retreat for a while.

There is almost no need to think about it, once he stupidly steps in, he will face the blow of the Yuan army like a storm, and then he will have to pay a price if he wants to retreat.

But if you don't advance at this time, will it be difficult to withdraw your troops? (To be continued!)
