Zhao Yuan's plan is very simple.

First suppress and then raise.

At first, let the soldiers of the Russian Empire fight a defeat to frustrate their spirit, and then, let them fight a victory, so that their confidence will swell infinitely and become arrogant soldiers.

The arrogant army will be defeated!

At this time, the 200,000 army was as murderous as a rainbow, followed by the defeated generals of the 5,000 defeated soldiers who lost their armor and chased all the way to the first pass of the Tianzun Grand Canyon, and the 200,000 army submerged the pass with less than 1,000 defenders in an instant.

The sound of killing shook the sky.

The 200,000 army pursued the victory, all the way like a bamboo, and killed until it reached the city wall of the Jiepai Xiongguan, above the city wall, there were many swords and guns, and the army was at its peak.

"Report to the general, it's not good, it's not good......"

Just when Huang Zongbing was triumphant, suddenly, a soldier galloped on his horse, and when he was still ten zhang away, he turned over and rolled off the horse, and climbed in front of Huang Zongbing.

"Why are you so alarmed?" said Huang Zongbing's face showed a hint of displeasure.

"In the desert, there is an ambush army of about 1,000 people, and they ...... They...... They are setting fire to our food and grass......"

"What?!"

Mr. Huang's face changed color, and he subconsciously looked up in the direction of the desert, only to see the sky, thick smoke billowing out, covering the sky and the sun.

The anxious Huang General immediately commanded tens of thousands to return to the desert to help.

The news of the burning of grain and grass soon spread throughout the Orr army.

The morale of the army was shaken.

Tens of thousands of troops were suddenly drawn back to turn back, which threw the originally morale-boosting army into chaos.

A thousand miles of embankment was destroyed in an anthill.

Many times, the outcome of a battle is often the insignificant details.

At the moment when the Russian army was in chaos, all the gates of Jiepai County suddenly opened, and tens of thousands of cavalry and infantry suddenly killed without warning.

The total number of defenders in Jiepai Xiongguan is about 200,000, except for a small number of defenders in Tianzun Grand Canyon, mainly distributed in Jiepai Xiongguan and Jiepai County, because the emperor died, Gyeonggi was in turmoil, and the black-faced gods of heaven drew out 50,000 elites to go to the imperial capital, at present, the entire Jiepai Xiongguan region is less than 150,000 troops, and of them, at least half of them are stationed in Jiepai County.

In other words, the defenders of the entire Jiepai Xiongguan are only 70,000 people.

In fact, the soldiers of Jiepai Xiongguan, excluding the 30,000 elites brought by Zhao Yuan, were less than 30,000, because, when the fortified wall was cleared, a large number of soldiers were needed to organize the evacuation of residents.

Fortunately, Zhao Yuan brought a team of 30,000 elites.

Now, this elite army is pouring out.

There are 30,000 people, but they are all carefully selected soldiers by Yang Cheng and them, among them, some generals and soldiers come from Blackwater City, they have all experienced the battle of the corpse mountain and the sea of blood, and all of them are predators who have been tempered for thousands of years.

30,000 people, divided into three teams, shot into the 200,000 chaotic army like arrows off the string.

In front of the three teams, there was a group of high-ranking martial artists taking the lead, they were like sharp spear tips, invincible, all the way like a bamboo, and like a hob cutting butter.

Different from the fierce fighting spirit of the soldiers of the Great Qin Empire in the Jiepai Xiongguan, the Russian soldiers at this time, because of the chaos, the sharp spirit has been discharged, the grain and grass have been burned, the people are panicked, and the long journey, the people are sleepy and the horses are lacking, and they were charged by three armies like wolves and tigers, and they were immediately defeated like a mountain, and the 200,000 army was killed crying and crying, and the vast plains were full of Russian Imperial soldiers fleeing for their lives.

In the face of this situation, even the scattered immortals have no power to return to the sky, so they can only fight and retreat.

In fact, in this kind of large-scale human war, the role of cultivators is extremely limited, because cultivators are afraid of incurring powerful heavenly tribulations, and usually do not directly intervene in the war, at most in the form of favoring their own side.

Of course, this does not mean that cultivators will not intervene in human wars, in fact, in the history of human warfare, cultivators have participated in countless battles.

However, it is worth mentioning here that the way in which the cultivators participate is mainly in the form of creating a favorable form for their own side, such as calling for wind and rain, causing small-scale natural disasters, and so on, and this kind of intervention will also involve the cultivators in hostility, so that the cultivators on both sides will cause a head-on conflict.

Cultivators still have some scruples about killing ordinary people, but there is no fear between cultivators and cultivators, so often when cultivators intervene in human wars, it means war between the cultivators of the two sides involved......

……

At present, in the battle between the two sides, there seems to be no cultivators on the side of the Great Qin Empire to intervene, and a group of cultivators under the Scattered Immortal Constellation are powerless, because at this time, the soldiers on both sides are already in a state of unevenness, even if they cast spells, there is no point.

This round of rushing and killing, the killing was dark, chasing and killing for dozens of miles, until dusk, Zhao Yuan Ming Jin withdrew his troops.

In the middle of the wasteland, there are dead corpses and mutilated horses.

The beacon smoke filled the air, and under the bloody sunset, the battlefield became more and more vast.

It took two hours for General Huang to gather the remnants of the defeated generals, 200,000 elite soldiers, and on the first day, more than half of them were killed and wounded.

There was a depressing atmosphere throughout the army.

The originally ambitious general soldier wanted to die, and he overestimated the cultivators of Penglai Immortal Island and underestimated the combat effectiveness of the army of the Great Qin Empire.

The house leak happened to rain overnight, and the bad thing is that not only was the morale of the defeated battle low, but the grain and grass were also set on fire.

Now, including those who are disabled, the 200,000 army is about 120,000, and the rescued grain and grass are not enough for 120,000 soldiers to eat for a day, not to mention, there are tens of thousands of war horses.

"General, don't panic, we are not in the desert where there is no grass, but in the territory of the rich Great Qin Empire, and it is not easy to find food. Sanxian touched his beard, he naturally saw the situation of Huang Zongbing.

"What the Immortal said...... But ......"

"General, you still give the order to conquer the Jiepai Xiongguan Pass earlier, and then wave your army south and go straight to the Yellow Dragon!"

"That's all there is to it. “

Huang Zongbing sighed, he knew very well that it was difficult to ride a tiger now, because, even if he wanted to return to the Russian Empire, food was a problem.

The Orr Desert is a trench between the Russian Empire and the Great Qin Empire, this trench not only distances the two countries, but also provides a natural barrier between the two countries, it is not easy for anyone to attack anyone, and it is precisely because of this that the Great Qin Empire does not invest much in the military expenditure of the Jiepai Xiongguan, so that the Jiepai Xiongguan is in disrepair for a long time, and the majesty of Blackwater City is very different.

The black-faced gods are stationed in the Jiepai Xiongguan, mainly to fight the horse thieves in the surrounding area, which is more of a symbolic meaning.

It is precisely because of this that Huang Zongbing still holds a glimmer of hope, because although the 200,000 army has lost nearly half, it still occupies an absolute advantage in terms of numbers, as long as it captures the Jiepai Xiongguan, all problems will be solved.

That night, the Russian army set up camp a few miles away from Jiepai Xiongguan and remained silent all night.

In Jiepai Xiongguan, Zhao Yuan was holding a grand celebration banquet.

In addition to a group of warriors, Yang Cheng and others participated in the celebration banquet. This time, Yang Cheng and the others made great contributions, it was they who attacked the logistics troops of the Russian army, set fire to the grain and grass of hundreds of thousands of troops, and laid the foundation for the subsequent victory.

"General, aren't we going to sneak up on them tonight?" Lu Feng looked eager to try.

"They have been attacked three times during the day, and they have learned a profound lesson, and they will definitely beware of us robbing the camp, forget it today, let them sleep well, and clean them up tomorrow. Zhao Yuan said with a smile.

"General Wen Tao Wuluo, unparalleled in the world!" the crazy Taoist priest took the opportunity to slap Zhao Yuan on the back.

"It's easy to say, it's easy to say. Zhao Yuan's face turned red and he laughed dryly.
