Chen Mo didn't want to use up all the archers he had. These archers were still useful.
The canyon was quickly lost.
Next is a flat land, only about five kilometers long. When General Zhao's soldiers rushed past this flat land, they quickly discovered that something was wrong. There were various large hunting traps, and there were many hidden traps. Suddenly,
In the meantime, Zhao's soldiers fell on their backs.
However, these were just some small tricks after all. After leaving more than a thousand corpses, General Zhao finally attacked outside Shili Town.
"Good news." The messenger returned to the camp and shouted: "General, General Zhao has broken through the opponent's defense and has reached ten miles outside the town."
"Okay!" Qing Feng was immediately overjoyed and said, "I didn't expect that this attack would go so smoothly."
"General Zhao asked whether to attack the city directly?" the messenger asked.
"Yes, attack the city directly." Qing Feng nodded and said: "Not only will he attack the city directly, but my main force will also be dispatched next."
Soon, Qing Feng sent an order and ordered the main force to dispatch. The main force has been staying in place, walking within a few kilometers. It is also a laborious task to assemble, and it needs to go through this long canyon.
.This long canyon is extremely dangerous. If the main force passes through, it will take a long time. And if something unexpected happens during this period, it may be very troublesome.
In order to prevent accidents from happening, Qing Feng specially left 3,000 troops on standby. Not only that, he also asked the archers to take the lead in occupying the high point.
I have to say that Qing Feng is a pretty good general.
At least he is indeed outstanding in dispatching troops and generals. He is meticulous and not reckless or aggressive.
Unfortunately, Qing Feng encountered not one opponent, but two opponents.
Chen Mo commanded his troops to quickly counterattack. Although the city wall was only four or five meters long, it was definitely a huge barrier that could resist the opponent's attack to a large extent. Four thousand archers quickly returned to Shili Town.
It has become a powerful support.
Four thousand archers attacked frantically along the city walls.
The opponent's remaining 10,000 soldiers held rattan shields to resist. Although the 5,000 archers following behind were also attacking indiscriminately, the opponent was blocked by a city wall, and arrows could not penetrate the solid city wall at all.
, although occasionally a few unlucky people were hit by arrows, these sporadic casualties could not bring much harm to Chen Mo at all.
After several charges, they finally had no choice but to withdraw their troops.
"General Zhao, wait until the main force of the coach arrives before attacking." The deputy on the side smiled bitterly and said: "If we continue like this, we have already suffered more than half of our casualties. If we continue like this, we won't lose enough people."
"That's all." General Zhao nodded helplessly.
Although more than 10,000 people were lost, they finally broke through the canyon barrier that was easy to defend and difficult to attack, and were stationed outside Shili Town. This is already a great thing. General Zhao is also extremely satisfied. At least he can give
The coach gave an explanation.
General Zhao smiled and said: "At least we have overcome this huge difficulty."
"No, this can be considered a credit at least." Everyone nodded.
Unexpectedly, the city gate of Shili Town opened at this time, and Chen Mo led the soldiers in the city out.
"General Zhao, the gate of Shili Town is open, and the guard of the other side, Chen Mo, has led the soldiers in the city out of the city." A soldier hurried in.
"What?" When General Zhao heard this, he jumped up in surprise and said, "How many people came out?"
"Move out the whole city," the soldier said hurriedly.
"Damn it!" General Zhao took a deep breath and said, "The whole army obeyed the order and formed a formation to meet the enemy."
"Yes!" The soldier nodded hurriedly.
Afterwards, General Zhao immediately put on his armor and rushed forward.
General Zhao only had about 10,000 remaining soldiers, while Chen Mo had 30,000 elite soldiers. Coupled with the cover of 4,000 archers, it can be said that morale was high.
"Recapture Xiakou Pass."
"Drive away the tigers and wolves of Zhao State."
…
Chen Mo's soldiers shouted one after another, and a group of people roared wildly to encourage the soldiers and boost their morale.
The corpses of Zhao soldiers were piled up in piles outside the city, which already made Wu soldiers feel inspired and seemed extremely excited and excited. It was as if killing Zhao soldiers was like slaughtering dogs.
General Zhao frowned: "Since you dare to come out, I will kill you today to catch you off guard."
"Send my order and the whole army will be dispatched."
General Zhao waved his hand.
Wow!
The entire army was mobilized, and all personnel rushed out in unison.
The greatest strength of Zhao soldiers is that they are good at attacking on the plains. They have light armor, strong rattan armor, and sharp spears. This is their greatest strength in plain battles.
"Array up!" Chen Mo waved his hand.
Tens of thousands of people quickly formed an array.
What matters in platoon fighting is speed and strategy.
The two snake-like teams quickly dispersed from both sides, and the middle was like a large array of iron barrels, ready to resist the opponent's attack at any time.
"What's going on?"
"Are they planning to surround us?"
General Zhao's soldiers asked hurriedly.
The opponent's number is several times greater than his own. If he uses the Tietong formation, he will definitely be able to surround himself. This is obvious.
General Zhao sneered: "No matter what they do, what we have to do is to move forward and never retreat."
"Yes!" Zhao soldiers shouted.
Afterwards, more than 10,000 people rushed forward crazily. In addition to these more than 10,000 infantry, there were more than 1,000 cavalry. The threat that these more than 1,000 cavalry could bring to Chen Mo was very limited. Unless he had 5,000
, even more than 10,000 cavalry can have a huge impact on Chen Mo's Tietong formation.
When the two armies went to war, the cruelty of the battlefield was immediately exposed.
As soon as they met, countless soldiers fell down.
Hundreds of soldiers groaned and howled.
Chen Mo stood on the commander's platform and looked at the situation on the frontline battlefield. He couldn't help but sigh: "Zhao is really powerful. Even when we have consumed so much of our living strength, we can still unleash such a powerful fighting force.
It’s really hard for us to believe.”
"General, they are just at the end of their war effort." The deputy general on the side smiled and said, "It won't be long before they die at our feet."
"This is not the main force of Zhao State. Killing them will not mean anything!" Chen Mo shook his head and said: "Killing them all will only arouse Zhao State's vigilance. The next battle may be even more difficult to fight.
