Chapter 191 Can you dare to fight?
The generals read the battle report, some were angry, some were shocked, and some were puzzled. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 infoAfter reading the battle report for a thousand nights, I was even more puzzled. The battle report showed that the central fortress had only been held for half an hour before the defensive line had collapsed and been overwhelmed by the dark army.
Because the defense line was lost so quickly, Zhao Valve did not have time to send warships to respond. When the battle line collapsed, the high-speed battleship that was originally prepared for the response was carrying Chiya and the others, and was just about to land at the rear base.
The loss of the central fortress immediately caused a chain reaction of the battle situation, and the pressure on the two flanks of the fortress suddenly increased greatly, and they were besieged from all sides. In this case, the two fortresses fought to the death and held out until the rescue warships urgently dispatched by Zhao Valve arrived.
However, the retreat was not as alarming as the previous two times, and four of the six warships sent were down, and only two barely carried the defenders of the fortress to retreat. In a short period of time, most of the defenders of the two wings of the fortress suffered casualties, and most of the rest were seriously wounded.
On this short page of battle reports, there seemed to be a thick bloody breath rushing to the face.
After a moment of silence, Zhao Yuying opened her mouth and asked, "How many people have withdrawn from the Central Fortress?"
This question is like a boulder, shattering the embarrassing silence and breaking the taboo that everyone has been reluctant to touch.
Having experienced two defensive battles of the fortress, it was clear that in the case of the rapid collapse of the defensive line, without the battleship to respond, it was simply a pipe dream to retreat. The defenders of the central fortress must have been wiped out.
It's just that Qianye can't figure it out even more, with the guarding force of the central fortress, how can it be defeated so quickly?
Zhao Yuying, who was originally going to participate in the defense of the fortress, was suddenly seriously injured, but he also replenished the fortress with a number of generals with considerable combat strength, all of whom were fierce generals under the command of Youguo Gong. And Zhao Fenglei was also assisted by many fierce generals of the Yanguo Mansion. In terms of combat power on paper, the two fortress guards led by Qianye and Song Zining are more like miscellaneous troops.
Zhao Junfang stood with his hands in his hands, his face expressionless, and only after a while did he say: "The fortress guards ...... Most of them died in battle. ”
Zhao Yuying stood up suddenly: "Mostly, that is, there are still people who escaped alive?"
She couldn't help but care about this question, after all, there were many people from the Youguo Mansion in the fortress guards, and there was also an elder who had watched her grow up since she was a child.
Zhao Junfang's voice was gloomy, and the words were like hammers in everyone's hearts: "A total of seven escaped, Zhao Fenglei and six people from the Yanguo Mansion." ”
The faces of the people who could communicate with the secrets changed in an instant, and they all knew the troop configuration of the Central Fortress. The Yanguo Mansion has a total of six generals, including Zhao Fenglei, a total of seven.
Zhao Yuying said in a trembling voice: "What about the people from my Youguo Mansion?"
Zhao Junfang shook his head and said, "There is no news." ”
Everyone knows that he is a euphemism, and no news is the worst news. Trapped in the army, how could a few generals escape?
Zhao Yuying asked, "How did those people in the Yanguo Mansion escape!?"
Zhao Junfang's eyebrows tightened, and he said slowly: "I don't know. ”
At this time, a general sneered: "What's so hard to guess about this, presumably those people secretly hid a clipper ship in the fortress, and when they saw that the enemy was strong, they broke through first." The word breakthrough, he said very seriously.
Zhao Junfang's brows furrowed even tighter, and he shouted: "This matter is very important, how can you speculate randomly?"
The general was a person from the Youguo Gong lineage, but he was not afraid of Zhao Junfang, and still sneered: "If my guess is true, then how did this ship come to be, and why it was put in the fortress without a record, this matter really has to be said." ”
According to convention, floating ships are strategic weapons, and any movement and arrangement needs to be approved by the commander-in-chief of the theater, or at least report the movement. If a small high-speed floating ship is placed in the fortress, then everyone wants to get the main general to leave a way back for themselves, how can the soldiers have the heart to fight to the death?
The presence of this floating ship that has not been registered in the record proves that the high-level officials of Zhao Valve are responsible for negligence, and to be precise, the Chengen Gong represented by Zhao Junfang cannot get rid of it. Therefore, the tone of the general from the Youguo Mansion was already unceremoniously, after all, the biggest loss in this battle was the Youguo Gong's lineage.
Hearing this, Zhao Yuying instead lost her temper and sat quietly. But those who are familiar with her know that she is the most dangerous at this time. A temporary silence means that what is coming is an earth-shattering explosion.
The stakes were so high that Zhao Junfang had to suppress his anger and explained: "Whether there are any floating boats that have not been registered in the case remains to be investigated. However, this general can be vouched for with forty years of military exploits, and our Cheng'en Mansion did not know about it before. ”
Since Zhao Junfang had already said so, the general didn't want to say anything more, so he snorted and sat back in his seat.
Zhao Junfang glanced at the generals in the room and said, "There is another big matter at the moment, we can't let the soldiers of the dark army cross the fortress one step. This battle is related to the entire Zhao Valve battle situation, and you still need to fight with all your strength. The army was scheduled to assemble in the evening and march to the defensive line. You can wait for another two hours and then take up your posts. I'll send you the division of the defense zone later, I wonder if you have any objections?"
Most of the people present were generals of Zhao Valve's lineage, and the only ones who did not belong to Zhao Valve, Qianye and Song Zining, also had a close relationship with Zhao Valve, and naturally they would not shirk at this time of crisis.
Seeing that no one objected, Zhao Junfang was greatly relieved, and waved his hand: "There are still many of you who have not recovered from their injuries, I will open the strategic resource library and distribute the reserve potions to everyone, which should be able to have some effect." ”
Hearing this, all the generals were in good spirits. Zhao Valve's secret collection of wound medicine is naturally a rare boutique, and many of them are obtained directly from the Li family, and they can't be seen on the market at all. With these elixirs in hand, there is at least thirty percent more hope for life.
Seeing that the morale was available, Zhao Junfang waved his hand and shouted: "Since this is the case, please go back and rest, tonight and tomorrow morning, we will fight to the death with the dark race!"
At this moment, everyone suddenly felt that the house was shaking slightly, and the shaking became more and more obvious, and in the blink of an eye, the shaking was so strong that even ordinary soldiers could feel it. What happened to be able to make the main building of the base shake like this?
The anxious generals had already rushed to the window, looked out, and suddenly saw a huge shadow passing through the air!
They were taken aback and looked up to see a battleship flying over the fortress, followed by several warships and more than a dozen large transports. Only then did a shrill whistle siren sound inside the fortress.
Several generals immediately recognized the battleship flying in the air as the Zhao Valve warship, but this fleet did not appear in the battle report, and it came from nowhere.
Just when several generals were in doubt, the door of the military conference room suddenly opened, and Zhao Jundu walked in and said, "There is no need to assemble." ”
Zhao Junfang was stunned and said, "Why?"
Zhao Jundu said lightly: "It's too slow." I will personally lead the army to attack the army of darkness at dusk and fight them back. ”
Zhao Junfang was even more stunned and said, "Fourth son, this ...... Your safety is much more important than the momentary victory or loss of the battle, isn't it?"
Zhao Junfang said it mildly, but the other general of the Cheng'en Mansion was much more simple and rude: "The fourth prince has a bright future, and he is the future pillar of the empire! Why take such a big risk for the remnants of the Zhang Lord's army? It's not worth it!"
The other generals of the Cheng'en Mansion also persuaded one after another, and even the generals of the Youguo Gong family did not stop agreeing. All the generals are worried that there are many powerhouses of the dark race, and Zhao Jundu is young after all, and his cultivation is far from the limit, so I am afraid that he will not be able to resist it.
Zhao Jundu's eyes swept over the generals, and said slowly: "Are you worried that I am not an opponent?"
"Well, of course not. It's just ......" Zhao Junfang didn't know how to phrase it, but he had to stop Zhao Jundu. The fourth prince of Zhao is not only the hope for the future of the Cheng'en Mansion, but also the pillar of the future of the entire Zhao Valve and even the empire.
Zhao Jundu suddenly laughed and said, "Is it possible that if you are not defeated, you won't dare to fight?"
The generals looked at each other, and when they didn't know how to speak, Zhao Jundu suddenly stretched out his hand and pointed at Qianye, and said, "Qianye, go out with me!"
Qianye didn't think about it, so he said, "Okay." ”
Song Zining next to him jumped up and said angrily: "You are crazy! Qianye is injured, how can you go to the battlefield now?"
Zhao Jundu glanced at Song Zining and said, "You come too." ”
Song Zining was displeased, and said: "Ben Shao has his own military plane in his chest, and there is no need for you to point fingers! No matter how I am, you and I are not all the way, and this matter is difficult to ......."
Zhao Jundu suddenly appeared beside Song Zining, put his hand on his shoulder, and with a flash of purple energy in his eyes, he calmed back Song Zining's second half of his words, and then said, "That's it." ”
Song Zining was furious and struggled desperately, but he was still weak now, where was Zhao Jundu's opponent? Compared with when Song Valve met back then, at this moment, Zhao Sigongzi did not have half a point of fireworks in his gestures, and the fundamental signs of sealing the town in all directions were not obvious, and Song Qi had already been suppressed in his thoughts. Even many generals didn't see that Zhao Jundu had moved to seal the town in all directions.
No matter how Song Zining struggled, he couldn't get rid of Zhao Jundu's hand, and he couldn't say a word. Zhao Jundu didn't allow him to explain, so he just dragged it and left. Song Zining was even more furious, Zhao Jundu's hand was clearly to ruin his romantic and calm image, how could he bear it?
But no matter whether he can bear it or not, in front of Zhao Jundu, who is obviously not ready to be reasonable, he can only endure it.
Zhao Yuying suddenly stood up and said, "What about me?"
Zhao Jundu looked at her and said lightly: "You are resting here, and it is also a mess when you come." ”
Zhao Yuying was not afraid of Zhao Jundu, and was furious: "Why is the old lady making trouble!? Okay, you little four, explain it to me clearly before leaving!"
However, Zhao Jundu had already stepped out of the door at this time, and dragged Song Zining away quietly with Qianye, leaving only a purple fire behind him to seal the door.
Although Zhao Yuying was so angry that she was like thunder, her body was really weak, where could she break Zhao Jundu's Bafang Seal Town? Naturally, she was firmly sealed behind the door, and she could only jump to her feet and threaten loudly, what was the use of this?
In the blink of an eye, twilight fell, Zhao Jundu finished the formation, and on the distant horizon, the dark army had already appeared.
Looking at the black line that surged like a tide, Zhao Jundu looked at Qianye and said, "Do you dare to fight?"
