Chapter 479: Defeat is like a mountain
Chapter 482
After the meeting, everyone dispersed to prepare for the battle that was coming.
Wei Chili returned to his temporary residence and held a small meeting of military advisors. His advisors all gathered together to analyze the current situation of the battle and see how the next battle should be fought.
The discussion was in full swing, Wei Chili never spoke, he sat behind the handsome case, squinted his eyes slightly, and a smile appeared on his face from time to time.
"General, do you already have a plan?" asked his advisor.
"Oh, not yet, you can continue to discuss it and see how you can have a chance of winning. ”
"The general doesn't seem to be worried about the current state of affairs?"
"Ha, of course there are some difficulties at the moment, but Cheng Dalei has too few soldiers, and it is almost impossible for him to trap us to death in Huangsha City. Wei Chili said: "So, it's not a big deal, of course, it's not easy." ”
"But the general seems to have won the battle?"
"Oh...... I'm not happy about it. Wei Chili seemed to understand what his subordinates were confused about, he blinked his eyes and said, "Don't you think that His Highness, he is becoming more and more like an emperor?"
The subordinates were stunned, and there were people who participated in today's meeting, recalling Li Letian's performance. In the past, Li Letian was a personable person, humble and courteous, however, today, in addition to being humble, he also shows courage.
Under the subtle influence, Li Letian has gained everyone's recognition. As for several of his contenders...... Li Xing fled to Yangzhou and announced that he had no chance of the throne, and Li Xingzai, his performance in this war is really nothing worth talking about.
If Li Letian can successfully ascend to the throne, his supporters will undoubtedly receive huge benefits. As for Cui Xiang, he who did not vote right is destined to become the eliminator of this gamble.
This kind of thing is destined to be a few happy and a few worried. How happy Wei Chili is, how bad Cui Xiang's mood is. Now Cui Xiang ran to Li Xingzai as soon as he had time, and asked Li Xingzai for warmth, for fear that his body would be in a little condition. There is no doubt that even Li Xingya's own father has not been so kind to him.
Li Xingzai's body is fine, but he can't move on the ground for the time being, but Cui Xiang's mood really can't get better. The more I looked at Li Xingzai's appearance, the more I felt that he had little to do with the throne. Cui Xiang couldn't help but wonder if he had really done something wrong by investing in this waste prince.
Huangsha City entered a state of emergency preparation, preparing for battle at dawn the next day, and this was the third day they had entered Huangsha City.
Two teams were sent to attack the camp of the toad army, one was the Liangzhou soldiers led by Song Bokang of Liangzhou Mu, and the other was the Qingzhou soldiers of Qingzhou Mu Zhou Calling Whales, and each of the two families sent some people, totaling 10,000 people.
Before the battle began, Cui Xiang summoned Song Bokang to a place alone.
"Adult ......"
Cui Xiang waved his hand, asked Song Bokang to sit down, and asked, "Against Cheng Dalei's toad army, the two families have about the same strength, what are your chances of winning?"
"This ......"
Counting up, Song Bokang is the group of people who know Cheng Dalei the most, because Toad City is in Liangzhou controlled by Song Bokang. However, because the distance was too close, Song Bokang also understood the horror of Toad City.
Today's battle is only a tentative attack. Even in the case of equal troops, Song Bokang has little chance of winning.
"The subordinates can only do their best. ”
"It's not about doing your best. Cui Xiang shook his head: "It's a promise of defeat but not a win." ”
"Uh...... This!" Song Bokang was taken aback.
Cui Xiang smiled, his smile was a little bitter: "The eldest prince has too much limelight, and it's time to taste what it feels like to fail." ”
Song Bokang only paused slightly, and then realized the key. He nodded slowly and solemnly.
"The subordinates receive the order. ”
The drums at the head of the city shook, and the emperor ** launched an attack on the toad army. The Qingzhou soldiers and the Liangzhou soldiers went out of the city at the same time and killed the camp of the toad army, and Li Letian and others stood at the head of the city to watch the battle.
This battle is concerned about the hearts of many people. Cheng Dalei attacked the ranks of many people, and even the 50,000 troops in Yangzhou were defeated by them. But that's just what I've heard. Whether the toad army led by Cheng Dalei is really invincible, everyone will wait and see today.
Emperor ** sharpened his knife, and the toad army was obviously not idle, and the two sides launched a fierce hedge. The people who watched the battle at the head of the city saw with their own eyes the fighting style of the toad army.
First use gunpowder to bombard indiscriminately, even if the power of gunpowder is not good, it is enough to make the emperor turn his horse up. Then there was the cavalry charge, slashing and slashing at the rout, and among the high-ranking figures of the empire, they showed exquisite horsemanship, and their horsemanship was not even weaker than that of the Rong clan, who claimed to be invincible in cavalry.
After the cavalry formed a huge impact on the emperor, it was the all-round charge of the infantry, and the combo swords, fire and thunder, and plum blossom array showed super power.
"What's that!"
"Oh, what's that?"
The head of Huangsha City let out an exclamation, and the weapons and formations taken out by the toad army made them tremble.
But this is not even the whole of the Toad Army, what shocked the emperor the most was the super organizational ability shown by the Toad Army.
A group of 10 people, a team of 100 people, a battalion of 1,000 people...... Every Emperor ** warrior had to face the attack of three or four Toad Army warriors at the same time. They cooperated tacitly, and after eliminating one person, they immediately turned on the other. The emperor's army still has an advantage overall, but in some areas, the emperor always faces a situation where there are fewer enemies and more enemies.
They swept across the battlefield like a whirlwind, and everywhere they went, the emperor fell to the ground in pieces like wheat harvested in autumn.
If it is said that the gunpowder, weapons, and formation emperor ** can't take it out because of technical limitations, but in this scene in front of him, the emperor ** can understand all the tricks inside, and he can't play it.
The sources of imperial troops generally include: standing army, reserve army, and conscription army, and the combat effectiveness is from strong to weak, and the number is also from less to more, and most of them are temporary conscripted troops. Most of them were ordinary civilians, and when it came time to fight, they were given a weapon, and they drove them into battle with a whip, sometimes without a weapon, and carried the enemy's weapon with a head.
For example, Toad City has 30,000 troops, in fact, according to the empire's algorithm, all civilians can be pulled to the battlefield, so the strength of Toad City should exceed 100,000.
It is difficult to say what kind of combat effectiveness these civilians have gathered temporarily, let alone any cooperation.
But to feed an elite standing army, it takes huge financial support. Fighting is going back and forth, but in fact, it is still a money bag.
In such a situation, the defeat of the emperor ** is also a matter of course. Li Letian looked at the emperor who had no power to resist, and had no choice but to withdraw his troops.
