People who know a little about military affairs understand that in the wilderness, infantry is no match for cavalry.
Even human light cavalry has a huge advantage against infantry.
What's more, the current enemy is not the human cavalry, but the heavenly storm army with superior combat power.
The knights of the Storm Legion are all wrapped in armor, with only one eye exposed. The armor of the heaven is much stronger than the armor of the human world. It is difficult for ordinary arrows to penetrate the armor of the knights of the heaven.
In addition, the knights of the Storm Legion ride six-legged beasts.
Their combat power is so strong that even the most elite heavy armored cavalry in the world are no match for them.
Now it would be suicide to use a group of infantry to block the Storm Legion, which was armed to the teeth. The battle loss ratio would reach a terrifying level.
Which of these senior generals is not commanding an army of millions? They are absolutely unwilling to let their soldiers die on the battlefield in this way.
Faced with everyone's doubts, Nangong Yan showed no expression.
She just said slowly: "Besides this method, do you have any better way?
According to the current situation, if we cannot stop the Storm Legion in front of the Sky Eagle Pass, not only the northwest front will be greatly affected, but the west and southwest defense lines will also be greatly affected."
The generals were silent.
Let the Storm Legion continue to pursue the human cavalry. Within three to five days, the remaining one million cavalry will be killed while fleeing.
Once the cavalry is lost, the entire Western Region and the North Court will become the back garden for the Storm Legion's wanton activities.
The Storm Legion can cross the southwestern Kunlun Mountains to the south, sweep across the grasslands to the north, and bloodbath the thirty-six countries of the Western Regions to the west.
Zhao Zian could also distinguish the priorities, he said: "What General Nangong said makes sense.
In this catastrophe, the only thing we have is human life. The only thing we can do is fill it with human life.
The only way now is to mobilize infantry to stop the Storm Legion."
A general on the staff said: "General Sun's victorious army has not yet left the border. Now only the warriors from southern Xinjiang who are marching in the direction of Longmen can take on this combat mission.
However, according to regulations, the five tribes in Southern Xinjiang returned to the general manager of the march in Jiannan Road. I heard that this time, the old god Yu Jizi of Cangyunmen bypassed Jiannan Road and directly ordered the five tribes in Southern Xinjiang to send troops to reinforce the Longmen battlefield.
of.
The troops stationed on the front line of Yumen Pass this time are mainly the troops from Beiting, Xiting and Longyou Road. We have no command authority over the soldiers of the five ethnic groups in southern Xinjiang who belong to Jiannan Road.
We have issued such a fatal combat order, will they be willing to obey it?"
"Yes, if Southern Xinjiang is willing to obey our orders, how can Chief Dayan's 300,000 beast cavalry legion bypass Longmen and advance north?
If those 300,000 beast cavalry were near Tianying Pass now, our cavalry would not be so passive."
This sentence can be regarded as igniting the dynamite barrel.
Everyone knows that the passive situation in the Western Region war was mainly caused by Zhao Zian's indecision.
At that time, when the human cavalry retreated from Dawu City, they only lost more than half. Later, 1.6 million prairie cavalry came to support, and their combat strength was greatly increased. Even the Storm Legion did not dare to catch up to the two to three million cavalry.
tight.
But who would have thought that the Storm Legion's pursuit was not focused on killing enemies, but rather taking advantage of the speed of the six-legged beast cavalry to continuously divide the cavalry moving southward.
Not long after retreating from Dawu City, the nearly three million cavalry in the world were divided into two groups, one retreated to the southeast and the other retreated to the southwest.
Then, during the transfer process, these two large groups of cavalry were continuously divided by the Storm Legion. In just two days, hundreds of human cavalry were divided by the Storm Legion.
It is precisely because the Storm Legion was busy dividing the human cavalry in the past two days and had no time to pay attention to it, so Zhan Ying saw the opportunity and took 300,000 wolf cavalry, riding in the night, through the gaps of countless groups of Storm Legion.
Weaving in and out quietly.
At this time, the human cavalry no longer moved, but fled.
Starting from this morning, the Storm Legion's tactics changed from dividing to killing.
In the few hours from this morning to this afternoon alone, at least 300,000 exhausted human cavalry were killed by the Storm Legion as they fled.
As a result, many senior generals began to shift blame.
They felt that the reason why the cavalry suffered such huge losses was not caused by Zhao Zian's order to withdraw south, but by the 300,000 beast cavalry in southern Xinjiang.
After all, the cavalry did not suffer much losses at the beginning of its retreat south, and it was only this morning that it began to suffer large-scale casualties.
If the 300,000 beast cavalry led by Patriarch Dayan had not gone north, but had joined the human cavalry, the situation would not have been so bad.
Many generals are cursing the five tribes in southern Xinjiang for being white-eyed wolves and refusing to save them until death.
Zhao Zian shouted: "What are you arguing about? When are you still arguing about these meaningless things?
Now we can only rely on the warriors of the five tribes in southern Xinjiang to stop the Storm Legion. I believe that since these southern Xinjiang warriors have chosen to go all the way north, they will not ignore death.
After my military order was passed on, the cavalry from all walks of life immediately gathered towards the Darkwood Wasteland in the south of Longmen.
Order millions of warriors from southern Xinjiang to line up on the north side of Darkwood Wasteland to block the Storm Legion, and give the cavalry at least two hours to assemble."
The military order was issued, and the ordering soldiers were just about to rush out to deliver the order.
Suddenly, Nangong Yan said: "Wait a minute."
Zhao Zian said: "General Nangong, is there anything else you want to say?"
Nangong Yan said: "There are hundreds of thousands of Storm Legions, and it is difficult to resist them with just one million soldiers in Southern Xinjiang.
Manager Zhao, I think it’s better to do this. Now the human cavalry is mainly divided into two groups: east and west.
The soldiers from southern Xinjiang are responsible for supporting the cavalry on the west route."
A general shouted: "What about the ones on the east route? The cavalry on the east route are basically prairie wolf cavalry. If they refuse to save them, how can they explain to the nine wolf tribes in the prairie?"
Nangong Yan pointed to the sand table in front of him and said: "Outside Tianying Pass, there are still 1.3 million soldiers of our Red Feather Army stationed. The Red Feather Army is closer to the East Road cavalry, so the Red Feather Army will go to block the East Road.
The Storm Legion."
Everyone was stunned.
Everyone looked at Nangong Yan in astonishment.
In their hearts, they were all glad that it was not their own troops who were going to stop the powerful Storm Legion.
But at this time, Nangong Yan took the initiative to ask Ying to dispatch the Red Feather Army to undertake this cruel combat task.
Zhao Zian came back to his senses, waved his hand and said: "Your Red Feather Army will enter the pass immediately. This battle will not be your turn yet."
Nangong Yan said: "At Longmen, the Red Feather Army has defeated the enemy's fierce attack that lasted for several hours. Is General Manager Zhao still looking down on our Red Feather Army at this time?"
Zhao Zian said: "That's not what I meant." Nangong Yan said: "Then let us Red Feather Army go, isn't it just to buy a few hours? Even if we Red Feather Army are weak girls in your eyes, we are still a team.
Life, if the enemy wants to kill us, he has to wave his hand
Weapons. With the 1.3 million lives of our Red Feather Army, we should be able to delay the attack for a while."
