After Xiao Zhan heard this, he couldn't help but smile: "I can't hold my temper this time. I sent troops to retaliate so quickly. It seems that we hurt you last time and I can't wait to fight back."
Nalan Anqi said: "General Tianshuo Gong Yangyu only had 200 million troops in his hands. We defeated 60 million of them, leaving 140 million left. We have tied up the entire family. It seems that we have to do this this time."
Come with us and fight to the death."
"They were trapped by us last time. This time they behaved better and did not take the land route but the air route. However, traps cannot be set up by air route. Although our army has 40 million people, there are only more than 20 million who are good at fighting. Facing tens of thousands
I'm afraid I won't be able to defeat an army that is twice our own. What should we do next? Fight or retreat?"
Qiu Yishan stood up and said: "Generalissimo, I suggest withdrawing this time. Gong Yangyu has led troops for more than 160 years and has a high prestige in the army. If he personally leads the troops on an expedition, the morale of the army will be more stable, and he will not be able to set up an ambush and face a tough situation."
Unfortunately, our chances of winning are almost zero."
Several Jindan-level generals who surrendered also suggested retreat.
Xiao Zhan said: "If we win this battle, the size of the rebel army can be increased to 100 million, and we can gain a firm foothold in Beiyi."
"So this battle must be fought!"
Nalan Anqi worried: "But they don't go by land and can't ambush. How can they win when they face an enemy force several times their own?"
Xiao Zhan smiled and said: "We will not leave the city this time. We will arrange for 20 million troops to go into the snowdrift. The 20 million troops are waiting for them in the air. Normally, they will stop ten miles away from us, and then
Let the crossbowmen fire arrows at us."
"We can then wait for them to stop and let the army ambushing below shoot arrows, causing them panic and causing them to collide with each other and increase their casualties."
"At that time, Gong Yangyu will be in panic and will definitely order a retreat. Let's chase them up and drive them some distance. The army that was shot to the ground can be captured smoothly. We can expand our team and have a three-to-five battle.
Tens of millions of prisoners should be fine."
Hearing Xiao Zhan's words, Qiu Yishan said in surprise: "I didn't expect that war can be fought like this. I've learned a lot! In the past, when we fought, we always faced each other, but we never fought like this!"
"Yes! Marshal Xiao is so resourceful!"
Everyone praised him one after another.
As a result, Xiao Zhan began to deploy and wait for the arrival of the enemy's main force.
Ten days of slow march.
Gong Yangyu led an army of 1.4 billion to Bei'an City and stopped in front of an army of 20 million led by Xiao Zhan. Since Xiao Zhan had more than 20 million civilians behind him, Gong Yangyu thought that Xiao Zhan was under his command.
When all the troops arrived, he laughed loudly and said: "Xiao Zhan, how can you, with only 40 million stragglers, dare to compete with the general's 140 million troops? Do you think you can still do it in this battle?
Can we still be invincible if we can defeat more with less?"
Xiao Zhan said: "It shouldn't be a big problem if I defeat you."
"What a loud tone!" Gong Yangyu sneered, "I'd like to see how you can defeat more with less this time!"
Having said this, he shouted: "Crossbowmen! Let me aim at them! Shoot them with arrows!"
Unexpectedly!
He just finished speaking.
Xiao Zhan's men and horses, who were ambushing in the snowdrifts on both sides below, emerged one after another, pointed their crossbows into the void, and fired without saying a word.
Thousands of sharp arrows were fired, and horses were shot in the belly. Chaos broke out in an instant among the 140 million troops. The injured horses ran around, and various rear-end collisions occurred in the air.
"This, this, this..."
Gong Yangyu was shocked!
Completely shocked!
I can't believe that I was so careful and fell into Xiao Zhan's trap!
How can this guy be so insidious when fighting!
"Hahaha!"
The people on Xiao Zhan's side burst into laughter.
Nalan Anqi shouted excitedly: "Gong Yangyu, if you have the courage to lead an army to fight over, we are waiting to fight with you!"
