Chapter 4787: The last secret card is also a gamble on life

At nightfall, midnight, Jingzhou battlefield.

Liu Daogui sat firmly on the commander's platform. Under the platform, there were already armored soldiers and shield walls. From time to time, stones were thrown nearby, and when the broken pebbles collapsed onto the shield surface, they made a "kaka" sound.

The sound is endless. From the south direction, the shouts of killing are getting closer and closer. Then, in the east and west directions connecting the front and rear armies, the sounds of killing are also loud. From here, I am only about a mile away.

.

Tan Zhi crossed his knees and sat next to Liu Daogui. He held a big water bag and kept filling it with water. Liu Daogui gently shook his head: "Zi, drink slowly, even though you have been running like this for a long time.

, but drinking too quickly and too hard will not be good for your body."

Tan Zhi put down the water bag in his hand and said: "I really should give it a try next time. What does it feel like to be chased by those things that are neither human nor ghosts, going around and around but unable to get rid of it?"

I asked Brother Daogui, if at this time, the demon thief sends out this kind of monster to attack again, what will you do?"

Liu Daogui smiled slightly: "Didn't Daoji and the others have a good solution? As long as these monsters can be trapped using underground traps and then suppressed with earth bags, they can be solved. What's more, I can learn your fighting style.

, run more roads, take more detours, if there are cavalry, you can even bring them to the demon thief and let them attack the demon thief in turn, wouldn't it be better?"

Tan Zhi sighed: "I'm not in your good mood. I can still laugh at this moment. Now our army is almost surrounded by all sides. Most of our troops have been lost. We now have less than 8,000 capable warriors.

And the monster thieves' offensive is still rising one after another. It has not stopped for a moment since nightfall. Our army's defense line has shrunk to less than 400 steps near the handsome platform. Are you really so calm?

?”

Liu Daogui waved his hand: "What can you do if you don't calm down? The battle has been going on like this, and there is no other way out. It is impossible to break out, and it is impossible to evacuate. The only way is to not retreat even one step, and fight to the end with the demon thief. Okay.

At present, our defense line is still very stable. Whether it is from the front or from the rear, we have repelled many attacks by demon thieves. The battle loss ratio is about 1:5 to 1:6. I am not very worried."

Tan Zhi gritted his teeth: "But the physical strength of our soldiers and the reserves of bows and arrows are almost at their lowest. Now the demon thieves are taking advantage of their strength to attack in turns, changing a group of troops to attack every moment, and they are extremely fierce.

Afraid of death, the closer they get to our commanding platform and the more they can see your commanding flag, the more hopeful they feel. Although the losses are great, the sound of the war drums is getting louder and louder, and I think

In Xu Daofu's hands, there are still at least five thousand fresh troops that have not been dispatched, and they have always been under his commanding banner."

Liu Daogui said calmly: "I still have five hundred cavalry here that have not been dispatched. His reserve force is nothing more than the Lingnan barbarians who killed Qianmo. If we really want to start a fight, I will use Hongzhi to lead the cavalry to counterattack. With one charge, we can

Crush these slang barbarians!"

Having said this, he pointed to the battle formation in front and said in a deep voice: "The demon thieves are also afraid that we will counterattack with cavalry or chariots, so now they are fighting in formation instead of attacking in scattered troops, just to make use of their strength.

The advantage can forcibly break our army's defense line. Although our army resists and retreats step by step, this retreat is planned and executed according to my orders in order to cause maximum damage to the enemy.

It can also shrink our defense line, so that we are not at a disadvantage in terms of military strength."

Tan Zhi nodded: "Although your style of play is not flexible, it is the only choice when the troops are insufficient. The Crane Wing Formation we set up before the war actually lost its direction.

, the crane wings spread out to the north, and the battle line is still intact until now. However, if the battle continues like this, for another four hours, by dawn, I am afraid that I will have to retreat to the end of the two hundred steps in front of the handsome platform.

The defense line is up, and by that time, it may not be easy for the cavalry to go out to counterattack."

Liu Daogui said calmly: "I believe that our turning point will come after dawn. The demon thieves have already dispatched the power of the Tiandao Alliance to attack our rear army. After the rear army was broken through, they still cannot increase their strength.

A breakthrough in one fell swoop, what does this mean?"

Tan Zhi's heart moved, and he blurted out: "This means that the demon thief's military strength has reached its limit, and he can no longer send troops to reinforce a certain direction?"

Liu Daogui nodded: "Exactly, Xu Daofu's last trump card is these five thousand Lingnan Fist Barbarians. He will not commit this troops now. He will wait until a gap in our front is opened before committing them all.

.Now, Xu Daofu and I are competing to see who can keep his composure. If the battle fails, Xu Daofu will have to consider relying on these five thousand fists to cover the retreat of his army. Otherwise, once pressed,

There is no way out."

Tan Zhi curled his lips: "Brother Daogui, to be honest, are you sure that we have reinforcements and can show up at dawn?"

Liu Daogui shook his head: "No, no soldiers and horses will join the battlefield in Jiangling tomorrow. I'm afraid the same is true in Dangyang. The only one I can really count on is Xiao Shitou's Jiangnan army."

Tan Zhi gritted his teeth: "Is there any way you can contact Xiao Shitou? Has he given you anything in return?"

Liu Daogui said with a smile: "Little Shitou and his thousands of people are the surprise troops I sent out. I did not give him the task of returning to Jiangling to aid. Even if he turns to attack Yueyang and Changsha, I will not

It’ll be weird.”

Tan Zhi jumped up from the ground: "What, you didn't ask for the little stone? Then aren't we in danger of fighting alone until the end and being annihilated?"

Liu Daogui's eyes flashed coldly: "If we don't let the whole army have hope and think that there will be backup, then everyone will not fight this battle with confidence, nor will they fight bloody for a day and achieve such a result. But on the contrary,

If we don't give everyone the courage to risk their lives and survive, and still think about someone coming to save us, and still think about evacuating and breaking out, then we will definitely not be able to survive until dawn."

Tan Zhi gritted his teeth: "Then according to your opinion, we are just comparing our wills, betting on our lives, and betting on whether Xu Daofu will evacuate?"

Liu Daogui curled his lips: "Yes, I believe I will win the bet, because the opponents Xu Daofu wants to defeat are not just us on the battlefield. For him, whether it is Huitian Shidao or Lu Xun in the future,

Fight for power, or fight with the devil of the Taoist Alliance for control of Jingzhou. He will not be allowed to lose everything in this battle. I believe that he will retreat until dawn!"
