Chapter 1079: Yudi's Counterattack (1)
In the fierce battle of the camp in the west of the county, more than 20 iron beasts were dispatched by his own army.
The heavy Iron Beast is easily affected by the terrain and travels very slowly, and has to stop when it encounters a deep pit or ditch, becoming a cover for the attacker.
They can't get too close to the defenders, who will throw a lot of hooks and pull hard after hooking the Iron Beast, which can be pulled, and it will be difficult for the Iron Beast to stand up again after it has fallen to the ground. In the past, the safety distance of the iron beast was seventy or eighty steps, but now Shaodian* shoots the hook out, and it is not safe to take a hundred steps, and it is only after stopping two hundred steps away that it will not be pulled down.
The fiercest battle was in the sky, Xia Fan summoned the elemental giants to fight for a while, and found that it was easy to be restrained by the strong crossbow, so he simply disbanded the giant array and released the flexibility of a single magician. The magic of crossbow arrows is easy to miss, and shooting giants is one arrow and one arrow, and the advantage accumulated by the Shaodian army in the air is reversed.
"Grandpa Kun attacks from afar with a knife!" Ding Kui shot the gun, and threw out the fighting dragon again, giving up the melee fighting style of rushing forward.
Give Ding Kun a period of time to charge up and use the giant "Blood Drink Incineration" to slash, which is no less powerful than Tan Shang's Ice Roar, and the killing range is comparable to its size, which can resist the small forbidden spells of Xia Fan and the Blue-Eyed Mask.
Xia Fan and Blue-Eyed Mask refused to give Ding Kun a chance to recharge, and the two took turns casting magic to restrict Ding Kun to protect the safety of their own magicians.
There is only Hao Dong in the sky who is in a hurry, stay in your own camp, lack of long-range attack means, there is no threat to the enemy, rush out to attack the enemy, it is easy to be caught fire by the crossbow, and the master who cannot contain the enemy will be pinned down.
"Attack the mage! ignore those two forbidden laws. Ding Kui found Hao Dong's embarrassment, so he stepped on it again.
It is much easier to protect two magicians than to protect thousands, and now that Ao Yu is covering Ding Kun, he has restrained Xia Fan and Blue-Eyed Mask, and Ding Kui has commanded the magicians to strengthen the crossbow's long-range attack group to beat up his own magicians with all his might, forcing Hao Dong to scramble.
Lang Chun and Shi Jiang were on the bar again, and the attacks of words and bows and arrows came and went, and the two fought inextricably.
At the headquarters of the Eighth Legion, Jiang Zhi invited Huan Qiao, who had just arrived.
After the recovery of Giant Sheep City, Hengfu City summoned all the magicians who had fled due to the fall of the city, trying to reorganize the magician team in Nanqiu County.
Recently, it has been quite effective, and more than 200 magicians have gathered from the fifteen cities that have been captured, and under the leadership of Huan Qiao, they went to Xixuan City to ask for battle, leaving only a small number of people to guard Hengfu City.
"Now that the situation is urgent, the enemy army has gathered hundreds of magicians to attack Baiqiu Town, and I ask President Huan to lead people to the rescue. Kang Sik personally sent a request as a sign of respect.
The battle of Baiqiu Town also began, all the own troops originally stationed in Jiaxin City were killed, and the magicians of the local army plus some magicians of the Northern Fourth Army formed a powerful magic attack group, and the defensive pressure of the 71st and 78th divisions increased sharply.
Chunlu City has 10,000 soldiers and horses in the south, Jiaxin City has 40,000 soldiers and horses in the north, and Baiqiu Town is attacked on both sides.
The 80th Division happened to be in Chunni Town, and Qiao Meng got the news and sent the army to support, but because there were many enemy magicians who did not dare to fight in the field, they had to be stationed in Baiqiu Town.
Ding Kui once again repelled Hao Dong.
Hao Dong retreated to his own position and could not exert his skills, so he rushed out to attract the firepower of the crossbowmen, and Ding Kui took the opportunity to make a sneak attack and beat him back into the formation.
The camp in the west of the county is just stuck on the main road connecting the east and west, and the terrain on the north and south sides is rugged and not suitable for the army to pass, so Dong Ba failed to catch up in time when Feng Runshang retreated, and the cavalry troops brought by Yudi did not participate in the attack on the camp this time.
At this time, a star flag was raised next to the handsome flag of the big camp, and Ding Kui shook a shot to scare Hao Dong away, and then flew back to the camp.
"That's the way it is. It turned out that Ruan Xingzhu returned to the Chinese military tent and told Ding Kui what he saw and heard at the headquarters.
"There are changes in Ximu City and Jiaxin City, it's troublesome, is Yudi going to mobilize all his troops to eat us?"
Ding Kui quickly deduced and found that his army's all-out blow was really likely to seriously injure the tens of thousands of soldiers and horses under his command.
"The Chunlu River is controlled by our own naval army, the 74th Division and the Protector Red Army can't get through, what Yudi can plan is the 40,000 troops I have now. ”
Ruan Xingzhu was in a hurry, and he didn't know about Huan Qiao and Qiao Meng's support for Baiqiu Town.
"This time we hit our army hard, Yudi still has the strength to recapture the recovered city, and his calculation is very loud. ”
Ding Kui didn't have time to think about it, the battle outside was very fierce.
"Forget it, it doesn't really make much sense to occupy here, let's withdraw to Baiqiu Town. ”
"What?" Luo Tao was taken aback when he received the order to retreat, "Order, collect the excess fire oil in the camp, and smash it on the rejection horse outside for me." He didn't hesitate to execute it immediately.
Ding Kui returned to the battlefield and teamed up with Ao Yu to protect Ding Kun.
"Oh no! they're going to force their ultimate. Hao Dong, who retreated in embarrassment, found that something was wrong, and just now he thought that Ding Kui was going to target him again.
Sure enough, Ding Kui and Ao Yu withstood several rounds of indiscriminate bombardment, and the Grip of Death summoned a gray broadsword twenty or thirty meters long.
The giant blood drink incinerated the sky with a strong murderous aura that swept through the magicians of their own country, and Hao Dong, Xia Fan, and the blue-eyed masked led people back dozens of steps before they used various attacks to stop the gray broadsword.
Boom, flames erupted from the barracks defense line, a line of fire stretched across a frontage several miles wide, the counterattack in the barracks quickly weakened, and the defenders' banners became fewer and fewer.
"The enemy is going to flee! Yu Di saw it really and guessed the intention of the Shaodian Army.
"Huh, you want to retreat?" Hao Dong watched as the blood drank and burned into the air.
"Beware of Ding Kui's ambush, let the ground troops enter the barracks first. Xia Fan behaved cautiously.
Blue-Eyed Kamen wields a magic wand and intends to create clouds and rain, and the enemy hides behind the fireworks, and it is very easy to be ambushed by the enemy if he rushes forward.
The Shaodian army has made all kinds of preparations, fighting as soon as it says it will fight, retreating when it says it will retreat, and igniting the things that ignite the fire while exiting the camp from east to west.
With great difficulty, their troops rushed forward to extinguish the burning horses, and the barracks burned again, and the fire and smoke were still waiting for them ahead.
"Ding Kui really plans to escape, why don't you bypass the barracks and intercept them?" Hao Dong saw clearly.
"The enemy is not repelled by us," the blue-eyed mask reminded, "they retreat on their own initiative, and there are many of us who are fast and slow, and if the enemy catches a flaw in coordination and counterattacks, it is we who will suffer." ”
"Let's cover the ground troops, without the help of the magicians, it will be difficult for them to extinguish the fire. Be careful that Ao Yan suddenly ran over to cast a forbidden spell, Ding Kui could give up the barracks, and they were even more careless. "Lang Chun was also against the pursuit.
The Warlord did not insist on his opinion.
Luo Tao reorganized his troops and horses, withdrew from the camp in an orderly manner, caught up with Ding Kui, and asked: "The enemy can't break through the barracks, why should we retreat?"
"The enemy of the county town is not to be feared, but all the people have moved, and the city has been recovered by the Kong army. ”
"That's a good thing! No, where is the enemy's three armies in the north?" Luo Tao reacted.
"The preliminary judgment is to transfer to Jiaxin City, but if they are given a little more time, they can go to Baiqiu Town and come here.
To defeat us, you have several options:
One is to take Xixuancheng directly;
the second is to turn a corner and recapture the port city;
the third is to cross the river and sweep the giant sheep city;
The fourth is to turn around and counterattack Jiaxin City and Ximu City. ”
After Ding Kui calmed down, he thought of a variety of possibilities.
"Retreat into advance, turn defeat into victory! This trick is very clever. No wonder today's attack was so fierce, Yudi was silent for a few days and finally broke out. Luo Tao figured it out.
"Xingzhu will go to Baiqiu Town immediately, inform General Dong to wait for us to go back, and then prepare some men's clothes, and I will dress you up as a male magician. "Ding Kui is going to use all his strength.
Ten miles is not far, and they ran back to Baiqiu Town in less than half an hour.
As soon as their own army saw Ding Kui and others appear in the sky above the barracks, they immediately stopped attacking and withdrew from the view of the barracks.
"The enemy has fled, let me go after it!" Dong Ba was pressed and beaten for a long time, holding his breath.
"No, the enemy army is obviously deceitful, and it will only take a few minutes for the magicians from the county to come over, even if I cover you to pursue, you will be ambushed. Ding Kui kept a clear head.
Tan Shang dragged Huan Qiao's hand and said, "Fortunately, President Huan brought people to the rescue in time, otherwise Baiqiu Town would have suffered heavy casualties, and Ao Yan and I could only keep part of the main force." ”
"It's all your own people, don't say kind words. If it weren't for the invasion of his own country, the magicians of Nanqiu County would not have lost so much, and the fifteen magic guilds had only gathered more than two hundred people, and this blood debt must be recovered from his own family. Huan Qiao was very emotional.
There are at least thirty or forty magicians in a city's magic guild, and the county guild can exceed fifty, and now the number left is less than one-third, which is a major loss for the magic guild.
"Can't rejoice too soon, the enemy hasn't given up the offensive yet. Ao Yan and Ding Yu covered the attack of the 71st Division, repelled the enemy to the south, and ensured that they would return to the camp as soon as they returned to Chunlu City. Ding Kui ordered.
He had to deal with a part of the enemy first, and then concentrate on dealing with the main enemy forces.
The army that came out of Chunlu City was very ghostly, knowing that Ding Kui would retreat immediately after he returned, and he walked cleanly, not even leaving a scout.
As Ding Kui expected, Hao Dong and other master-level masters chased after him with hundreds of magicians, and the own army in the north returned to the battlefield and attacked the Baiqiu Town military camp again.
"The smoke of the camp in the west of the county turned white. Qianyou flew to report.
He was responsible for observing the situation in the east with a telescope.
"It's fast, it's about the same time as the last time I occupied it, and Yudi has taken revenge. Ding Kui felt his gums itch and his face was hot.
"News came from the headquarters that the enemy's northern three corps had entered Jiaxin City, and the attack of the 72nd and 73rd divisions had been blocked, and now they had retreated to the barracks; General Zhang Jie led the 201st Division to attack Wangxia City, but it was an empty city. Fei brought a note.
"Our judgment is basically correct, and Yudi has changed his tactics. Is he just targeting us? Will there be a follow-up?"
