Many soldiers of the Northern Zhou Dynasty who had only suffered minor injuries were struggling to get up from the trench, but what they faced were sharp spear points. The spear penetrated into the trench along the gaps in the Luzhai, and between the ups and downs, blood flowed. Splash.
The Northern Zhou army, which had been completely disrupted, could no longer care about their companions who were still struggling in the trenches, and began to retreat one after another. Fei Yejin, who was in charge of the main attack, issued orders at the top of his lungs, but the morale of the army was already in chaos. , if you want to maintain a tidy formation and retreat, it is already good, so why talk about continuing to attack?
Yu Chishun came forward with his crossbowmen in time, and the arrows whizzed towards the Nanchen spearmen behind Luzhai. But who knew that these spearmen had begun to retreat as early as the Northern Zhou army began to retreat. They were not greedy. When the arrows landed where they were standing, even the planks on the deep trench were pulled away.
Clean, smooth and flowing... massacre.
Fei Yejinli looked at the chaotic retreating soldiers and horses, and was a little lost for a moment. Yuchishun looked at the arrows, many of which even landed on his own people, and didn't know what to say.
Li Xingchen directly massacred nearly four to five hundred people in Yuchijiong using only one trench. Some of them fell into the trench and died, some were stabbed to death by spears in panic, and some were even lucky enough to survive but were killed by random arrows from their own people. Beneath... corpses were piled up in the trench, too numerous to count.
And continuing up the mountain, who knows how many such traps there are and how many lives are needed to fill them?
The wind carried the smell of blood and reached Yuchi Jiong who was standing on the general stage.
The generals standing beside him looked pale or livid, and did not dare to say anything. In the end, Cao Xiaoda was the first to speak: "General..."
Yuchijiong gently stroked his beard, but didn't say anything.
It can be said that even Yuchi Jiong did not expect Li Xinchen's arrangement, but at this moment he already knew that the inconspicuous hilltop in front of him had been turned into a huge trap by Li Xinchen, and every step up meant that With countless blood and lives.
"Is this your strength?" Yuchi Jiong murmured to himself coldly, "Relying on these is like blocking someone's footsteps, your ability is only like this..."
"General?" Cao Xiaoda asked subconsciously after vaguely hearing what Yuchijiong was saying.
The mountain in front of me is like the hedgehog managed by Li Xingchen, and the one next to it is definitely not much better. As for the main peak at the back, it can only be worse. But looking at the look on my general's face now, it doesn't seem to be much better. Feeling scared and worried?
At this moment, Fei Yejinli and Yuchishun, who were in charge of the attack, walked over quickly. At the same time, they knelt down on one knee and raised their hands: "The general is incapable of commanding. Please forgive me, general!"
"Everyone, get up!" Yuchi Jiong waved his hand, "While you are wearing armor, in a masculine place, there is no such thing as kneeling down to apologize!"
Yuchishun and Fei Yejinli looked at each other, but Cao Xiaoda hurriedly winked, and two generals stepped forward to help them. Only then did Yuchishun and Fei Yejinli react and stood up straight, but they still lowered their heads in shame.
In the first confrontation, Nan Chen's losses were minimal, but they lost a lot of soldiers and horses. However, it seems that Yuchi Jiong did not want to blame him at the moment. His eyes swept over the two people, and Yuchi Jiong said in a deep voice: "Do you know where you went wrong?"
"Father...General, this Li Xingchen is so cunning and insidious that..." Yu Chishun immediately raised his head angrily.
"Major General!" Fei Yejinli hurriedly stretched out his hand to grab Yuchishun.
"Shut up!" Yuchi Jiong raised his eyebrows and shouted angrily.
Yu Chishun and Fei Yejin both shuddered and hurriedly bowed their heads once again. Cao Xiaoda looked at Yu Chijiong worriedly. The old general had not been so angry for a long time.
"We didn't send any scouts, we didn't send our vanguard, and we directly pressed forward with the army. Do you think that Li Xinchen was an idiot and just set up a stronghold in front for you to move away?!" Yuchijiong said coldly, "And since Li Xinchen dared to send the commander, When the spearmen moved forward, didn't they consider that we would use bows and crossbows to suppress them? For Li Xingchen, soldiers are the most important thing. He will definitely consider doing his best to save as many troops as possible. Therefore, do you think he would be stupid for doing such a thing that outweighs the gains and losses? Do it?!”
The first sentence is that the fee is also profitable, and the second sentence is for Yu Chishun, which is equally important and can be called a "bloody nozzle".
Neither Fei Yejinli nor Yuchi Shun dared to refute, but Yuchijiong sighed softly and softened his tone: "Of course I admit that I have many mistakes. After all, I was negligent..."
"The fault does not lie with the general!" Fei Yejinli and Yuchishun raised their heads almost subconsciously.
In the previous battle at Lengshuigou, Yuchi Jiong was trapped in the valley for several days, unable to advance or retreat. After that, the old general always took all the responsibility on himself. If Yuchi Jiong is also blamed for this now, how will Yuchi Shun and his subordinates deal with themselves?
Yuchijiong felt his heart was heavy and said calmly: "It doesn't matter who is guilty. What is important is that we have to capture the mountain in front of us. Once we capture it, this crime will no longer be a concern."
"Please give me your permission, General. I am willing to command the attack so that I can avenge my shame!" Fei Yejinli immediately said with enthusiasm, "Since Li Xingchen's trap has been exposed, naturally it cannot be used again. I must be more careful, please." Don’t worry, General!”
"Yes." Yuchi Jiong nodded lightly, but when he saw Yuchishun opening his mouth to speak, he said coldly, "You stay."
"This..." Yu Chishun wanted to say something, but when he saw his father's sharp eyes, he could only stop talking.
Yuchijiong turned to look at Cao Xiaoda: "Brother Cao, please."
"Don't worry, General!" Cao Xiaoda responded immediately without hesitation.
Seeing Cao Xiaoda and Fei Yejinli turn away, Yuchi Jiong couldn't help but whisper: "Li Xingchen's traps are always difficult to figure out. Who knows what will happen next?"
"Dad, why are you..." Yu Chishun walked over quickly, "Whatever did my child do wrong, please correct me, dad."
Yuchi Jiong was silent for a moment and said calmly: "First of all, calm down your impatient temper. When fighting against Li Xingchen, the most important thing is to be prepared and know how to advance and retreat. Fei Yejinli's retreat just now was still under control, and you How many soldiers died in vain when a barrage of random arrows was fired? Even the formation of the army was completely disrupted. The soldiers were afraid of being hit by their own arrows and had difficulty maintaining their formation. In the end, the retreat turned into a rout. The reason for this, you Do you know it yourself?"
Yuchi Shun was too shy to speak.
Yuchi Jiong then said: "So before I know what other methods Li Xingchen has, I must let the more stable Cao Xiaoda step in and find out Li Xingchen's arrangements. That's when you unsheath this sharp knife. For
