Transmigration begins with archery training
Chapter 492
Cao Huan was already dissatisfied with the other party's disobedience. After repeated attempts to persuade him failed, his anger surged even more. He pointed to the Agate River on the map: "This river is wide. Once you cross it, there will be no way back. I only want to save him. Can't he see that?"
No matter how you look at it, in the end...
Chen Sanshi was also one of the valuable "assets" of the Great Sheng Dynasty.
Cao Huan was reluctant to let him die.
Sometimes I get angry.
It's more of a fear of loss.
"A desperate battle..."
Zhao Wuji muttered, "Judging from past experience, Lord Chen likes to build up momentum on the battlefield, and I can understand his thinking. However, this time the situation is different."
"With the Agate River behind them, it's like a cornered beast fighting. Theoretically, it can boost morale temporarily. But the enemy has a Martial Saint. Once the battle goes against them, the Agate River will go from boosting morale to becoming the last straw that breaks the camel's back. They'll know they have nowhere to run and will just collapse completely. They might even defect to the enemy."
To die and then to live.
This statement sounds easy, but only generals who have actually led troops into battle know how difficult it is – it's as hard as climbing to the sky!
Because when a group of people face a desperate situation, they are more likely to... pee their pants in fear than to unleash an unprecedented fighting spirit!
The Battle of Hulao Pass is the best proof of this.
As the saying goes, "It's hard to reason with a damned ghost!"
One of the veterans said, "Since we really can't stop him, let him go."
"Yes."
Cao Huan put down the letter and sighed, "I only hope that General Lü will not disappoint us."
……
Youzhou.
After a long journey.
Lü Ji finally led his troops to Youzhou.
Looking out, a huge gap appears in the Great Wall, which stretches for thousands of miles, looking like a giant dragon or serpent that has been bitten in half by another ferocious beast.
At this very breach, several thousand barbarian soldiers remained to guard the area.
"Boss!"
Nie Yuan caught up and said, "We've figured it out. There are 5,000 barbarian soldiers ahead, another 50,000 in Licheng Prefecture, and 100,000 troops are encamped near Zhutuo Pass."
"Once you cross the Great Wall ahead, you will enter the territory of Youzhou."
"Should I send a few dozen light cavalry to probe the strength of the garrison at the Great Wall?"
"Need not."
Holding his halberd, Lü Ji stared intently at the Great Wall ahead and said in a deep voice, "Send down the order to transfer a thousand elite troops from the White Tiger Camp to charge directly into the enemy lines with me!"
"it is good!"
Nie Yuan immediately made the arrangements.
The two brothers have been partners for a long time.
This has always been the tactic.
When encountering the enemy, Lü Ji would lead a small force to charge into battle. If he could gain the upper hand, the main army would then swarm in and crush the enemy.
If they were ambushed, they would only lose a thousand or so men. Lü Ji would be able to break out, while Nie Yuan would be responsible for covering the rear of the main army.
Of course, in most cases, Lü Ji led a thousand cavalrymen into the enemy ranks, shattering their courage, and then swept through the enemy lines until a great victory was achieved.
This is the domineering style of Lü Ji's army: relying on his invincible bravery and bloody slaughter to intimidate the enemy and keep them on the verge of collapse.
Today is no exception!
"Boom boom boom——"
"hiss--"
The fire roared, its hooves thundered like drums, its red hair blazed like fire, and its breath produced smoke.
On horseback.
A fierce general, clad in vermilion armor, dragged his halberd across the ground, tearing the earth apart and leaving ravines.
One man and one horse, like a mountain god descending, charged straight into the enemy ranks.
"Sheng Ren!"
"Enemy attack!"
"It's Lü Ji!"
"..."
The barbarian general guarding the breach in the Great Wall immediately recognized the man: "Quickly inform the Prince and the Immortal Master that Lü Ji has arrived. The rest of you, form ranks and intercept him! Stop him!"
"boom--"
At the front of the military camp.
Whether it's caltrops or barricades, they are as fragile as paper in front of the fiery steeds and the halberd, unable to hold them off for even a moment.
"what!"
Seeing the enemy troops storming into the camp, the barbarian general roared and charged forward with a halberd.
"boom--"
however.
However, it was all done in one strike.
The barbarian general, along with his horse, was reduced to a pile of mangled flesh.
With the death of their general, the garrison instantly fell apart. Lü Ji went into a berserk state, moving through any area as if it were empty. A thousand elite soldiers slaughtered five thousand barbarian soldiers, who abandoned their armor and weapons.
Half an hour later.
The Xuanwu Camp and the Baihu Camp then entered Youzhou territory and joined Xu Wencai and others in a small town.
"General Lü, we've finally been waiting for you!"
Fan Hailing was overjoyed, as if she had found a lifeline.
"Yes, General!"
Pei Tiannan also stepped forward to greet them: "The reinforcements from various places that have arrived in recent days, along with the Xuanwu Camp and the Baihu Camp, now give us nearly 80,000 troops and three Martial Saints. We may well be able to fight them!"
"It's a pity that Hongze Camp didn't arrive."
Fan Hailing said, "Otherwise, we would have nearly 100,000 troops, which is basically not much different from the barbarians, and our chances of winning would be several levels higher. It's just a pity..."
"General Lu."
Xu Wencai approached with a feather fan and asked, "What is the strength of the troops at Agate River?"
"I just heard the news myself."
Lu Ji pointed at the map with his bloodied finger: "Yuwen Jingwen has mobilized nearly 100,000 troops from various nearby tribes to surround and intercept us. Once we cross the Agate River, it will be a dead end."
His military strategy was indeed primarily based on dominance.
But it doesn't mean making no judgments at all. Rather, it means that only after determining the odds of victory and what price to pay if they fail will they fight to the death and use brutal methods to intimidate the enemy.
If you attack the enemy as soon as you see them, that's not tyranny, that's brainlessness. True tyranny lies in being shrewd and meticulous, maintaining an undefeated record, and that's what makes the enemy tremble with fear.
That's why.
Within his judgment.
Heading north to the desert is not only a long journey, but also requires facing the Martial Saint and a large army. The difficulty of both is roughly the same, so it is natural to choose the more time-saving option.
True.
Destroying the main array eye will save everyone, but the auxiliary array eye might not be able to save everyone in time.
But life always requires making choices.
"Yuwen Jingwen is skilled with the meteor hammer and is a famous general of the Yuwen clan. He is known for his bravery and composure, and he is also a martial saint. With so many troops, no matter how you plan, General Chen will not be able to leave the Agate River smoothly."
Pei Tiannan asked, "I wonder if this situation has been informed to General Chen so that he can immediately turn back. Perhaps he won't be able to attack Licheng Prefecture in time, but he should be able to help us in the final battle at Zhutuo Pass."
"Your Highness and I have written him several letters in a row."
