Chapter 60: Advantages
Due to the continuous throwing of stones and trees, the soldiers in the valley soon suffered heavy losses, and then Chen Youliang led his troops to kill, and after a period of killing, all the Yuan soldiers in the valley were killed by Meng.
After clearing the battlefield, Chen Youliang led people to leave quickly.
Outside the valley, the seven lords saw that there were still 500,000 troops left.
The Seven Kings looked at the valley in front of them and decisively ordered a detour. With such "experience", as soon as there is a suitable place for an ambush, he will immediately stop and explore carefully before passing by.
So three days later, Qigong came to the border city of Chen Youliang with a huge army, not to mention, he didn't know how to lead the troops to directly order Qigong to the front.
In a siege, what good is a hard iron bar for the attackers?
In just five days, the army of the Seven Kings lost 50,000 men. Fortunately, Chen Youliang's army also lost a lot of money. Don't you see that there are fewer soldiers guarding the walls?
So the seven nobles gave the order to continue the attack. Five days later, although another 50,000 men were killed, the seven lords looked at the rest of the city walls and thought they would take the city tomorrow.
Before dawn the next day, a hand came down and reported that the gates were open and that all the people inside were gone!
When the seventh king heard this, he awoke and could not sleep. He immediately ordered all his soldiers to go into the city.
When they entered the city, they looked up, and there was not only no man, not even an animal.
Look at this, plus the ten-day siege, the seven princes don't know that they have been fooled, and Chen Youliang's army has not lost much.
The illusion of the dwindling guards on the city wall was only to hide the truth that he secretly retreated with his soldiers and civilians, and it was ridiculous that he never saw Chen Youliang's plan.
He lost only a limited number of soldiers and an abandoned city, but killed 100,000 soldiers. The seven princes finally understood the origin of King Ruyang and knew how fierce he was compared to themselves!
Compared to the king of Ruyang, he is an incompetent person, a typical military image!
finally understood his seventh master's ability, and summoned many generals to discuss what to do next in the army.
These generals had fought with the King of Ruyang before and learned a lot from him.
They were sent to fight guerrilla warfare and gather intelligence, and at the same time, Chen Youliang's troops had to disperse the defense.
Then send the main force to attack Chen Youliang's weak defense of the city, in preparation for an operation by Chen Youliang's troops before they arrived.
When the Seventh Prince heard this, he felt that he had an idea, and immediately made a decision to agree!
According to this law, the seven princes had conquered seven cities in a month, and when the news reached Dadu, the Pope was very happy, and the loss of 150,000 troops had already been thrown to Java long before the first city was stormed.
In the second month, the Seven Princes, relying on this method, broke only three cities. But in the third month, not a single city was destroyed! Because this time, even Chen Youliang's territory, which had lost eleven cities, was much smaller, and his army of 300,000 was enough to completely defend the army of the Seven Princes!
By this time, the war had entered a tug-of-war, and the two sides fought for another two months.
And Chen Youliang also played a lot of tricks, but the seventh prince was not fooled, not because he was smart, but because he had little courage!
The ambush in the valley scared him like a frightened bird, so when he saw anything out of the ordinary, he tried his best to probe carefully. Sometimes, he even shied away outright.
This phenomenon makes you understand how helpless you are, Nima has never seen such a small person have courage, but the other party's army and his own numbers, those who want to retreat, he has no choice!
Most of the masters looked at this situation, no, how could they play seesaw? They must destroy Chen Youliang, so they sent 200,000 of the 500,000 imperial guards to the troops behind Chen Youliang and let Chen Youliang be attacked!
In this way, Chen Youliang had no choice but to divide his troops to defend, unless he didn't want the territory, he would just give up those cities!
Knowing that such a division of labor and defense, sooner or later it will not be able to hold on to Chen Youliang's long time, it is not easy to cooperate, take advantage of the surface defense, take advantage of the transfer of all the people and materials to the king, and prepare for the future in advance!
When all the people and the city's provisions had moved away, they left the city and went to the next town.
So, a month later, when all the other cities and supplies had been shipped away, the king had accumulated a terrible background, and even the population was almost equal to the historical national capitals of the world!
The war between Chen Youliang and Yuan Meng finally reached a critical moment, and Chen Youliang pinned the hopes of everyone (Wang Wangwang) on Wang Wangwang, hoping to stay here until Yuan Wangmeng retreated.
Because the two sides have been fighting for half a year, there are no other losses except for the loss of tens of thousands of soldiers, and Yuan and Mongolia are not the same, they have spent a lot of manpower, material and financial resources, but after breaking through, they have gained nothing!
You must know how much food is consumed every day by hundreds of thousands of troops in Yuanmeng, and the amount consumed is even more terrible for half a year!
As long as you stick to the king's side for a long time, until the food of the Meng army of the Yuan Dynasty runs out, you have to go back, even if it escapes the fishhook, but for some reason, Chen You always feel a little uncomfortable in your heart!
...
Half a year later, Chen Youliang at this time finally understood what was going on with the silk in his heart!
Half a year later, Chen Youliang at this time finally understood what was going on with the silk in his heart!
Because he didn't expect Yuan Meng to be so crazy in order to destroy it, the entire besieging king has been attacking basically every day for half a year, the only difference is whether the intensity of the attack is big or small!
In the past six months, Chen Youliang's army of more than 300,000 has only killed more than 200,000, and Yuan Meng's side is even more uncomfortable, there are nearly 600,000 troops before and after, and 400,000, a third of them killed!
Coupled with all kinds of consumption for half a year, Yuan Meng's loss is huge, or the Pope took out 500 million taels of silver from the treasury, just to support it, it can be seen that the Pope really spared no effort to retaliate against Chen Youliang!
Chen Youliang looked at the numb eyes of the people in the city, thinking about the rest of the food, with only two meals a day, it was only enough to hold the troops for two months, and he was a little desperate.
Half a month passed like this, and on this day, Chen Youliang cheered up the garrison officers and soldiers according to the usual practice, and suddenly found that a Meng army stationed in a city not far from Yuan's army was retreating!
Just when he thought that this was a conspiracy planned by Yuan Meng again, he didn't expect his spies to come back, Yuan Meng really retreated in 993 this time, the vanguard had already retreated, and this group of people was going to stay at the end to prevent a sneak attack!
Chen Youliang was overjoyed and immediately informed Berber City of the news of Yuan's retreat!
Suddenly, people's eyes went numb, and gradually brightened, and then a cheer rang out in the sky!
One day, Chen Youliang arranged a lot of chores, and he received a letter from a disciple of the Gai clan, in which he said that Xiao Ziran, the grandmaster of the Southern Overlord Eagle Sect, was leading an army of 400,000.
At this time, Chen Youliang knew why Yuan Meng was in a hurry to retreat, it turned out that Xiao Ran bumped into him!
Xiao Ziran, who had been locked up for two years, went out of the customs, but found that so many things had happened in the north in the past two years, and even Zhang Shicheng had to take refuge in Chen Youliang.
Chen, do you think that now being trapped in the city for half a year, Xiao immediately discussed with Liu Bowen, and then personally bordered with the three hundred and fifty troops for fifty thousand years, with a total of 400,000 soldiers, Meng Yuan!
In the past two years, with the continuous improvement of the treatment of disciples, more and more people choose to join the Sky Eagle Team to teach, and after continuous screening, ordinary people with poor qualifications and qualified people are selected, and the composition of the army has reached 400,000 people!
The Eagle disciples who are still soaring in the sky are not very qualified, and there is a great hope that they can break through the innate ones.
After all, now as the overlord of the south, he controls the resources of the entire south, and the standard for selecting disciples is naturally higher, and of course the treatment is much better than before.
As Xiao Ziran's military advisor Liu Bowen, seeing this situation, they decided to make a decision for Xiao Ziran, remove the qualifications of poor and ordinary people, and leave only the qualifications of excellent masters and apprentices!
The rejected disciples were then organized into an army and sent to regular spring training to understand their wishes.
Now everyone in the south knows that even the treatment of ordinary soldiers and eagles is better than that of the disciples of most other schools, and you say that they are willing to stay!
After the formation of these 400,000 troops, after less than two years of training, they still could not meet Xiao Nature's requirements, so they were not taken to the northern battlefield but stayed in the south to deter the use of the squad.
The other 400,000 troops, after years of formation of Half the Sky, have defeated the veteran Meng army in the south many times on the battlefield, and it can be said that they are real elite troops, even if it is a pair of two people, the veteran Meng soldiers are not opponents!
After its establishment, the remaining half of the training was also four or five years, although the training qualifications were poor, but there were still some internal forces in the body, so the level of combat effectiveness has reached the elite army, but it has not yet been on the battlefield and cannot fully exert its strength.
This time, Xiao Ziran decided to take this opportunity to take them to the battlefield to see the blood, change their mentality, and save the besieged Chen Kexin by the way, and not let him die.
He had made trouble in the hinterland of Yuan and Mongolia, and it was easier for Xiao Zilan to fall into the territory of Yuan and Mongolia.
Xiao Ziran dispatched 50,000 border troops from Yuan Meng to move forward, but Yuan Meng got the news and quickly withdrew the encirclement of Chen Youliang's troops to stop Xiao Ziran.
At the same time, he took out 200,000 from the Imperial Forest Army, and stared at Chen You can see it, in case he gets into trouble!
Combined with the 400,000 troops, the strength of the two sides should be equal, and if the two armies encounter such a result, Yuan Meng will usher in a blow.
As soon as the two sides met on the plains, they quickly attacked. Yuan and Meng had thousands of cavalry.
I thought that this formation could take advantage of it, but it turned out that Xiao Ziran's troops, every time they took out a bow and arrow, there was a round of arrow attacks.
Covering the sky and the sun, the arrows and arrows immediately hit the Meng Meng army, I don't know how many soldiers were unwilling to laugh before they died: This is cheating!!
A round of arrows buried tens of thousands of Meng's soldiers, and when they saw the abnormal people on the opposite side, they were ready to come again, but Yuan Meng's troops were completely panicked, turned around and ran.
At this moment, I wish my parents would give them two more legs so they can run out of range of an arrow before the next attack and save their lives.
Unfortunately, these are just their extravagant wishes. After another round of bow and arrow attacks, the Yuan Dynasty had more dead and wounded soldiers because they had their backs to the enemy and could not block the arrows behind them with their weapons.
Xiao Ziran saw two arrows in Yuanmeng, killing a third of the soldiers. He nodded with satisfaction and said, "For so many years, blacksmiths throughout the South have spent most of their time making bows and arrows. Much better than the scene in the modern movie "Green Arrow"!"
A bow and arrow pot can hold 30 arrows, 400,000 people, and 12 million arrows will be made!
Not to mention the number of arrows used in daily training, the number has to be doubled, so even if Xiao Ziran owned the entire south, it would take him two years to create enough arrows to consume!
After shooting the two arrows, Shaw will ask the army to stop shooting, because this is to let them see the blood, the experience of fighting on the battlefield, as long as they can survive, these form soldiers, and soon be able to exert their true strength on the battlefield.
If you want to squash people with a bow and arrow all the time, then there is no point in exercising!
And after this rain of arrows appears, I believe that Yuan Meng will soon equip every soldier with a shield, and when the time comes, if he goes all out to fight, I am afraid of heavy losses!
Thinking of this, Xiao naturally waved his hand and let everyone charge, and the soldiers of the Yuan Dynasty and Meng dispersed.
At first, Yu Wei was able to use these two waves of arrows to quickly kill the panicked Yuan Meng soldiers, until later the Yuan Meng soldiers returned to the god's side and found that there was no arrow rain, only the enemy in front, and launched a fierce counterattack.
At this time, Xiao Ziran's troops began to slowly appear in the destruction, which was mainly a new battlefield.
The patriarch Meng warrior took possession of the warriors' bodies and fought against the spirit of life, and it was killing a group of Eagle Cult recruits.
It wasn't until later, after a long battle, that the recruits remembered to attack with the internal force in their bodies, and immediately eliminated or even surpassed the strength advantage of the Yuan Dynasty soldiers!
