Become a feudal king from today - #1014 - Chapter 1026 Countermeasures
“Da da da……”
The flames of the machine guns looked particularly bright at night. read
When Guan Tong saw that the fleeing barbarian soldiers were showing signs of turning back, instead of being worried at all, he became excited.
If Piao Man only attacks tentatively and then retreats after being frustrated, he will be disappointed.
All-or-nothing is what he wants.
“The general really guessed what the other party was thinking this time. They are trying their best to drive us into the swamp tonight.” Yan Heng grinned, like a hunter who saw his prey fall into a trap.
Guan Tong smiled proudly, “Then we’re welcome. Let’s see how long they can last. By the way, let the generals be prepared to pursue them. This time we will annihilate them in one fell swoop.”
“Yes, General.” Yan Heng looked excited and turned to leave.
Immediately, Guantong looked at the charging Piaoman soldiers again.
Under their counterattack, the five hundred elephant soldiers of the Piaoman were killed, and those who survived were bumped around, which created a lot of chaos for the Piaoman army.
The only ones charging towards them now were the barbarian infantry.
There were a large number of these Piaoman infantry, each holding a long knife, and they rushed toward them in dense numbers. The gap between each soldier was less than two meters.
Such a dense formation became a target for machine guns.
Although they continued to advance, they still could not break through the short 200 meters.
However, there were also Piaoman soldiers who rushed within fifty meters.
At this time, the soldiers of the Suzaku Army immediately used grenades to kill the approaching Piaoman soldiers.
The fierce charge and counterattack lasted for half an hour, and the corpses of the barbarian soldiers covered the battlefield.
After that, their attack suddenly stopped, as if they had received an order.
This order was issued by Yong Ya.
In just half an hour’s charge, they paid the price of 60,000 deaths.
The most important thing is that even though so many people died, they still did not cause any damage to the Suzaku Army’s defense line.
“Your Majesty, what should we do now? It’s obvious that the thing that can fly into the sky and illuminate is the firearm of the Dasong Army.” A Piaoman general asked, looking nervous.
“And that musket that can shoot continuously is terrible, otherwise we wouldn’t have killed so many soldiers in half an hour.” Another person said.
“I think the Dasong army was not fooled, but deliberately played into their trap.”
“…”
Generals, you say something and I say something, Yongya becomes more and more irritable after listening to it.
He yelled, “Shut up, everyone.”
His chest heaved violently, and he said angrily, “What should we do? What else can we do! Now you know how powerful Dasong’s army is. We can’t even defeat them in a night attack. How will we fight the next battle!”
The generals were silent.
What Yong Ya said is true. The current Dasong army is too scary, even more terrifying than the original Frank army.
At that time, they surrendered because they were afraid of Frank’s muskets and artillery.
Now, the muskets and artillery of Dasong are more formidable than those of the Franks.
This battle was impossible to fight. After a whole sneak attack, it seemed like they were going to die.
“Are you all mute?” The generals didn’t speak, which made Yong Ya even more angry.
Dasong is the enemy of the Piaoman. They thought that they could take revenge and cannibalize Dasong with the help of the east wind of the Western natives.
Now it’s the other way around.
If they can’t annihilate this Dasong army, Dasong will definitely eat the Piaoman.
what to do?
He struggled fiercely in his heart.
Even if 60,000 people died, he still had 340,000 people available. Should he just let this opportunity go?
“Now there are only two ways to go, one is to charge again, and the second is no longer to fight with Dasong’s army, but to join the Western-Turkish coalition forces and fight with the Western-Turkish army against Dasong’s army.” After thinking for a while, Yongya proposed Two ways.
After a pause, he faced the generals and said, “Which one do you think we should choose?”
“Continuing to fight will only increase casualties, which is not appropriate. It is better to choose the second option.” A general hesitated for a while and said.
“But these days of looking for the Western-Turkish coalition forces are enough for the army to seize the entire territory of our Piaoman Kingdom. If the Western-Turkish people betray their faith by then, wouldn’t we be homeless?” Another general said.
“This war was originally the idea of the Western Turks. Their determination to eliminate King Yan is very firm and they will not betray us.”
“But if we miss this opportunity, we are afraid that the Westerners will look down upon us.”
“…”
The Piaoman generals couldn’t argue for a while and started to quarrel.
Yong Ya was also in a dilemma. He looked at the camp of Da Song’s army and his teeth itched with hatred.
Just when the Piaoman generals were discussing how to act next.
Seeing that the Piao Man was still refusing to attack, Guan Tong discussed with the generals for a while and decided to take the initiative to launch a pursuit.
The Piaoman could attack them at night, so why couldn’t they attack the Piaoman at night.
What’s more, it has just reached midnight, and there are still three hours until dawn.
At the same time, this is also the plan they booked.
Guan Tong asked Yan Heng to prepare for this matter.
“The Piao Man retreated. We are chasing them. We must not let them leave here easily.” Guan Tong said loudly.
After pondering for a while, he continued, “The next pursuit will depend on the situation. If the Piusan army does not withdraw and continues to stay in the camp, then we will conduct a counter-outflank and detour to the north of the Piusan army and drive them towards the camp. Swamp force, if they retreat, they will bite them and hunt them to the end.”
“Yes, General.” Yan Heng and the other three responded at the same time.
Deciding on this matter, the general of the Suzaku Army ordered the scouts to advance, and they followed behind with their troops.
Since the two sides were about ten miles apart, the scouts reached the vicinity of the Piao Man camp in about two quarters of an hour.
Because the attack had just been frustrated, the scattered Piao Man soldiers were still in shock. The Piao Man army seemed to be in chaos, and the camp was still in a mess.
Observing this situation, the scouts immediately fed back the intelligence.
Knowing that the Piao Man army was still there, Guan Tong was excited and ordered the army to go around from the flank and touch the back of the Piao Man camp. At the same time, he deployed troops on both wings to prevent the Piao Man army from escaping.
While the Suzaku Army was taking action, the Piao Man generals and Yong Ya finally reached an agreement, that is, to launch another attack.
If this attack failed, they would choose to join the Western Land Coalition.
After deciding this, the Piao Man generals immediately reorganized the army and prepared to charge the Dasong army camp.
After preparing for two quarters of an hour, the Piao Man general led 100,000 troops to the south.
But when they approached the Dasong army camp, they suddenly felt something was wrong.
After a careful look, they found that the Dasong army had disappeared.
This shocked them.
“Oh no, something bad is going to happen.” A general of the Piu Man army immediately realized something.
The location of their camp was surrounded by open plains.
If the Dasong army took the opportunity to go around behind them, then instead of forcing them into the Great Swamp, they would be forced into the Great Swamp instead.
