Chapter 672 True and False Positions

On the official road two miles away from the battlefield, thousands of Korean soldiers, under the command of the Tiger and Leopard Army officers around them, used everything they could use to build blocking positions...

The earth wall, which is only five feet high, extends forward rapidly at a speed visible to the naked eye.

However, in the view of Old General Jin, without muskets and bows and arrows, even with the cover of this earthen wall, it would not be possible to block the Tartars' offensive pace...

After all, the Tartars are equipped with bows and arrows... With the range and power of the bows and arrows, they can suppress the blocking troops to death only during attacks, and even directly use bows and arrows to eliminate the blocking troops on the defense line.

Not only that, these Tartars were even equipped with powerful firearms such as grenades...

With the powerful power of the grenade, General Jin became even less confident in defending the earth wall in front of him...

Looking at the earth wall that had been formed in front of him, General Jin, who had been hesitating for a long time, decided to raise his concerns about Chen Ming.

However, what made General Jin feel discontinued was that as soon as he said the worries in his heart, Chen Ming's face showed a very agreeable expression. However, due to the recognition, Chen Ming did not stop his subordinates from continuing to build this seemingly useless earth wall...

Just when General Jin couldn't help but want to speak again... Chen Ming's voice finally reached General Jin's ears...

"General Jin, you are not wrong at all... When the Tartars were equipped with longbows and grenades, it is impossible for us, who were only equipped with cold weapons, to defend our position with this earthen wall... " But what I want to say is that we know this. The Tartars, who were attacked by us, also know this..."

Hearing this, General Jin subconsciously asked: "Since that's the case, General Chen, why do we still need to build this earthen wall without any effect?"

At this time, a strange smile suddenly flashed across Chen Ming's face.

Then, he replied to General Jin: "The reason is very simple. The earth wall I built has only one purpose. That is to show the Tartars and let the Tartars attack..."

"I can say with certainty that, as the Tartars understand us, after the battle begins, the Tartars' attention will hit the earth wall. At that time, whether it is arrows or grenades, the Tartars will greet the earth wall..."

Seeing the thoughtful expression slowly showing on the face of Old General Jin, Chen Ming followed and asked: "General Jin, how many grenades are left in our hands..."

Although I wondered why Chen Ming suddenly had such a question. However, General Jin still answered with a serious face...

"There are still 1,200...the battle to ambush the Tartar vanguard troops. We used a total of 6,000..."

Chen Ming nodded and replied: "Although the number is limited...but there is no problem in dealing with one or two battles..."

Faced with Chen Ming's ever-changing ideas, the doubts and confusion on Mr. Jin's face became even stronger.

Chen Ming just said yes, and asked, "General Chen, your idea is..."

At this time, Chen Ming no longer hesitated... he replied bluntly: "It's very simple. When the attention of the Tartar offensive troops was attracted by the earth wall, and arrows and grenades were greeted by the earth wall. Our defensive troops were hiding in a hidden trench thirty steps away from the earth wall..."

"Think about it, in this way, the Tartar offensive forces may have thought that the new Korean army they wanted to destroy was not hiding behind the earth wall, but hiding in a trench thirty steps away from the earth wall..."

At this moment, a trace of sudden enlightenment quickly appeared on the face of General Jin.

At the same time, an excited expression slowly appeared on General Jin's face.

After taking a deep breath, he added with surprise: "As long as the soldiers hide well enough, the Tartar offensive troops will definitely not be able to detect the defenders, nor will they expect the defenders to hide in the hidden trench behind the earthen wall outside..."

"When the Tartars greeted all the grenades and arrows to the earth wall and successfully occupied the empty earth wall. The brothers who were ambushing in the trench can use the grenades to give the Tartars an apocalyptic blow to the Tartars' offensive forces..."

"If possible, it's better to fight the Tartars against..."

On the earth wall that the Tartars had just occupied for a short time, after a long period of hesitation and thinking, Ao Bai finally decided to launch an attack on the more than 4,000 Korean New Army, whose troops were not equipped with muskets, far exceeding his own. From here, break through the front and rear attacks of the Korean New Army.

So, less than half an hour after occupying the territory wall, Ao Bai took his soldiers and gave up his position and attacked the Korean New Army position two miles behind him...

Soon, a very simple and unreinforced piece was even possible. Some gaps could be seen, and the earth wall that was only five feet high was blocked in front of Ao Bai.

Faced with this earthen wall that brought failure to him again and again, Ao Bai's face showed a very angry expression, gritting his teeth, hoping to swallow the North Korean new army that was blocking him alive in one mouthful to vent his anger and dissatisfaction.

Of course, no matter how angry he is, Ao Bai did not lose his mind because of this...

After leading his soldiers to stop on the official road three hundred steps away from the earth wall, he quickly raised his eyes and began to observe the every move of the earth wall...

However, what disappointed him was that in addition to the earth walls and various obstacles to slowing down the cavalry, Ao Bai did not find any signs of the Korean New Army's activities in the battlefield within his field of vision...

Just as Ao Bai's brow frowned again because of this result, the military advisor on the side subconsciously spoke and instigated...

"General, the new Korean army standing in front of us has neither artillery nor muskets, nor even bows and arrows... On the battlefield, no matter how capable they are, they will be suppressed by us with bows and arrows..."

"As for the grenades they equipped, we also have... and the warriors have greater strength than the North Koreans, so the grenades will be thrown farther, so the grenades they equipped cannot threaten us at all..."

"So, except for the troops, we have a great advantage in other aspects..."

"So, the slave thinks that we should launch an attack immediately when the North Koreans are just coming and are not ready..."

"If the slave had expected it was right, the new Korean army standing in front of us must have not expected us to come so quickly. In order to delay time, we deliberately hid it, made it mysterious and paralyzed us..."
