Chapter 334

One thing Yao Yizhong unfortunately said is that Liu Yan can really become a soldier, but he doesn't sprinkle beans.

Liu Yangen was not afraid of the war of attrition, especially the current stalemate of the war of attrition. He even had a sense of pleasure in fulfilling his wish.

One thing to know, before the start of World War I in wuqicheng, Liu Yan conceived a tactic to build fortifications of sufficient strength to let the enemy attack around him, and then he continued to use up his troops in a stalemate. This kind of tactics made him feel a little when he thought about it, and even a sense of being poked into a smile, so that he was happy when he remembered it.

A group of people were worried about Liu Yan's safety, but they saw that Liu Yan could still laugh calmly. For a time, they didn't know whether to admire or depressed.

It is a wonderful thing to have a monarch who does not change, which indicates that the monarch has a strong enough will. This is a very happy thing for my subordinates. How can I see that following such a monarch will have a bright future, but it will sink because of a little setback.

The strong will of the monarch can only be encouraged, not wasted. No one mentions anything to break through. They all concentrate on thinking about how to make the war better.

The Han Army in the northern battlefield has defeated the attacking Qiang troops 150 steps away. The fierce battle has made the corpses on the ground sleepy, and more wounded soldiers who haven't died for a while are moaning and wailing.

The attack had no effect, but was repulsed. It was time to retreat temporarily to regroup and fight again, but Yao Yizhong was really crazy. He not only strictly ordered the defeated troops not to retreat, but also increased troops.

Yao Yizhong, even the elite troops of the Qiang nationality, would not allow them to withdraw from the battlefield for rest, and would not care about their life and death for the miscellaneous soldiers. What he wants is a fierce attack. He wants to thoroughly find out how many troops are still hidden in Liu Yan's hands.

Knowing how many Han troops were encircled was so important to the Qiang troops that not only did the north side attack continuously, but both sides saw back and forth within 50 steps, and soldiers fell to the ground all the time. On the other three sides, it was difficult for the Qiang troops in the east to exert their strength, and the South and West evolved from feint to real attack.

"If ten thousand is not enough, twenty thousand!" Yao Yizhong looked like a furious tiger and roared ferociously, "there must be no gap!"

The number of Qiang troops on the battlefield has always been 70000 or 70000. If there was enough space on the battlefield, there would be even more. The problem is that the Han cavalry on the east side is really fierce. How many Qiang troops have to meet the collision of the Han sudden cavalry regardless of casualties, resulting in the number of casualties on both sides exceeding that on the north side.

Yin Bi blushed and was promoted to be a long history. His sense of responsibility made him have to say: "military Lord, we have lost more than 10000 in the East..."

"As long as we can consume the enemy's troops, especially the precious sudden cavalry, casualties are nothing!" Yao Yizhong doesn't know what Liu Yan thinks. What he cares about is: "the Han Army threw in 3000 precious sudden cavalry. I don't believe that Liu Yan's people can't be consumed!"

To tell the truth, let alone 10000 miscellaneous soldiers to exchange for 3000 elite cavalry of the Han Army, Yao Yizhong also thought it was worth it.

"Liu Yan is suicidal." Yao Yizhong said with a ferocious smile: "they are surrounded, and the cavalry is the main force for the breakthrough. Liu Yan is fighting with the precious main force for the breakthrough. I think he is in a hurry."

Normally speaking, Yao Yizhong said that there was absolutely nothing wrong, but he happened to meet a person in a very special situation.

According to the Qiang generals, Liu Yan took out the elite cavalry to do so. There is only one explanation anyway. That is, Liu Yan is really forced to make a gap at any cost.

What the enemy wants is what his own side must stop. Using all means to stop any goal the enemy wants to achieve is the guarantee of victory in the war.

The war began in the morning and still didn't stop at night.

The sky clouds on this side of the main battlefield are reflected by the fire on the ground. As long as the line of sight is not blocked by the mountains, it can be seen clearly dozens of miles away.

In the two peripheral battlefields, the two routes of Han troops, as reinforcements, seemed to be very anxious, which was also an abnormal overnight attack. The news was conveyed to Yao Yizhong, the main battlefield, which made the Qiang generals more convinced that Liu Yan was at the end of the crossbow. As long as they worked harder, they could attack the Han Army camp and win.

"Something strange." Jiang Ying was a general who fell to the state of Zhao in Shijie in the Eastern Jin Dynasty. At present, he is a miscellaneous Sima. He said in confusion, "the Han Army on the battlefield... How can there be so many long gunmen?"

Yao Yizhong has long found this situation. The Han Army used to focus on Tower Shield soldiers, knife shield soldiers, strong crossbow soldiers and even crossbow soldiers. Of course, the strong crossbow soldiers kept firing at night. There are a lot of long spearmen who can appear on the battlefield.

"The long spearmen of the Han army look still elite, but they don't even have leather armor." Jiang Ying touched her chin and said, "such an elite soldier doesn't have armor. It's not like Liu Yan's handwriting."

Yao Yizhong suddenly shook his body and subconsciously said, "crossbow men don't need armor. Long training makes them sharp enough."

Huh!? The strength of the Han Army in close combat is not enough. Give bowmen and crossbows close combat weapons to fight???

This discovery makes the Qiang generals breathe heavily. If that is the case, Liu Yan's troops should be exhausted, and the dawn of their victory has appeared.

"The number of Han sudden cavalry appearing on the battlefield also decreased rapidly." Yao Yizhong remained calm enough, but the pleasure in his tone was obviously very happy: "the war of consumption is useful."

During the whole day, it is estimated that 30000 Qiang troops were lost. Even the elite of Qiang armor were lost to nearly 2000 people. The result of the war should be that the Han army lost 7000, especially the elite sudden cavalry of the Han army. Such a conversion did not scare all the senior Qiang leaders, including Yao Yizhong, but they were extremely gratified.

In the past few days, the Qiang people have suffered heavy losses, but they have not caused much damage to the Han army. This kind of war situation makes the Qiang people extremely angry and helpless. Who makes the strong crossbow of the Han Army really abnormal?

"No matter how many troops Liu Yan has, look at the size of the camp..." Yin Bi gestured and said with a smile: "there can't be fifty or sixty thousand?"

The number of troops is the size of the camp. It can't be too small or too big. Too small will appear crowded, too big will have meaningless emptiness, are the way of self destruction.

"How many troops can Liu Yan fight with us to spend seven or eight thousand a day?" Yin Bi suddenly became very serious and said to Yao Yizhong, "Lord, the most important thing now is to ensure that the peripheral Han army can't get close to here."

Yao Yizhong certainly knows this. The war is not only the number, but also the morale of the army. Because of the heavy casualties, the morale of the troops under his hand is declining all the time. It is basically that the high-level oppresses the middle-level, and the officers and leaders at the middle and bottom are forcing the soldiers. Such a state cannot last long. It can be supported for a short period of three or five days. No matter how long it takes, it must collapse on its own.

After some speculation, it can be said that the senior leaders of the Qiang nationality have a sense of expectation, so that after their return to construction, they will convey a statement to the lower level, that is, if the Han Army fails, we will win if we work harder.

"As long as we can win, capture or kill Liu Yan alive, everyone can get a big reward. Once Liu Yan dies, the Han ministry will disintegrate by itself. Everyone can get a lot when he enters Qingzhou!"

The speech to boost morale began to spread throughout the Qiang army. It can be said that it has achieved some results, but it can play a very limited role in the soldiers who are strictly ordered not to retreat in the front.

"How long will it take to win?"

"We probably won't live to win."

"Alas!"

The morale of the soldiers participating in the war on the front line is difficult to improve because the arrow rain of the Han Army has not stopped. No one has guessed how many arrows the Han Army has stored. Everyone is saying that since the war, the Han Army has shot 700000 arrows, which doesn't look like it's almost finished.

The fighting at night will certainly not be as fierce as during the day. Most of them are infiltration wars, so that at a certain moment, a cry suddenly broke out at a key position to produce fierce fighting, which is not a little unexpected. The vast majority of the positions are where the soldiers on both sides are waiting for or do not want the arrival of the day.

The next day, as soon as it was light, the rear was full of Qiang soldiers who might be the last meal. They screamed and poured into the battlefield. It seemed that they believed that victory was coming soon. Ignoring the eyes of their companions who had participated in the war on the dead, they rushed to the Han army one after another in the face of the arrow rain.

"The enemy must think we are at the end of a powerful crossbow?" Sang Yu said, looking strangely at the bottom of the observation platform, where there stood a large number of new troops suddenly emerging overnight. He looked at Ji Chang and lowered his voice: "sir... Is it the call of the gods?"

Ji Chang's inner shock was not lost to Sang Yu, but he had long been determined to ignore whatever strange things happened, squinted at sang Yu and said faintly, "what's the difference."

Sang Yu was dumb.

There are many things that Liu Yan can't explain, including that the grain and fodder that should have bottomed out tomorrow morning have been replenished again and again, and new elite troops will appear from time to time. He never said much to his subordinates and maintained enough mystery.

"Our fleet has plunged into the Yellow River." Ji Chang's eyes were also looking at the troops below. There were a large number of big swordsmen and long spearmen. He took back his eyes to Liu Yan and respectfully said, "Yao Yizhong will get the news soon."

Shijie Zhao also has a navy in the Yellow River. It is known that there are 150000 people, and there are thousands of boats. If the Han fleet had been informed by Yao Yizhong before defeating the Shijie water army, Yao Yizhong certainly didn't want to continue to stay at the risk of being cut off.

Liu Yanxi first said, "then let Yao Yizhong know that there is a risk of being cut off and still want to stay."
