Chapter 478

Attack!

On Chen Shen's side, as Zheng Yuanyun finally realized, while the garrison finally sounded the alarm, the back gate has been broken!

Still led by the light cavalry, the light cavalry troops who rushed into the city quickly cut down when they saw people and rushed when they met people. It was only a moment, and the poor defensive force on the back gate was quickly disintegrated.

Then he didn't continue to rush before winning. Out of consideration of safety, Chen Shen only ordered the soldiers to firmly control the back gate first and didn't give Qingyang Empire any chance to fight back.

Although this caution was later found to be superfluous, Chen Shen was not in a hurry. He only faithfully executed Ouyang's orders.

After a while, all the siege troops coming from the left and right sides also entered through the back gate. Since then, nearly 200000 troops have gathered at the back gate, finally gaining a firm foothold.

Chen Shen breathed a sigh of relief. He knew that all this was the result of the chief soldier's plan. He didn't want to be greedy for work and advance rashly, but just waited in place.

This is why Ouyang handed over the task of attacking the back gate to Chen Shen. At this time, most generals will commit the problem of great achievements, which will never be committed here by Chen Shen.

After a short time, after Chen Shen confirmed for the third time that there was no problem here, he waited for Ouyang's strong troops.

Moreover, the commander of this force is Ouyang general!

"General!"

Chen Shen stepped forward. He was always steady and happy. His lack of merit did not mean he didn't want combat merit. But for him, it was a great achievement to win the back gate this time. When Ouyang followed suit, his body couldn't help straightening up.

"Well done this time."

Ouyang nodded at him. He didn't relax. He looked at Juhe city and asked, "how's the situation?"

Chen Shen quickly put away his happy face and said solemnly: "report to the commander in chief, the subordinates in the city are not very clear, but the subordinates near the back gate can guarantee. They are all under control now!"

"Very good."

Ouyang's stern expression relaxed a lot. He looked at Chen Shen and said with a smile, "you did a good job. I wrote it down for you."

"When the Empire rewards you on merit in the future, you will be indispensable!"

"Thank you, general!"

Chen Shen was overjoyed. What he was waiting for was Ouyang's strict implementation of this sentence, which did not waste the hard work of lurking and digging trenches during this period of time.

Ouyang nodded sternly, but he smiled bitterly in his heart.

It's just that his subordinates don't know. He knows clearly that the main hero for the great victory of the back gate is not Chen Shen of the executor, but not his commander, but

Chen Ze.

At the thought of this name, Ouyang's heart was full of five flavors. For a time, he didn't know whether he should thank Chen Ze or guard against Chen Ze.

Chen Ze told Chen Ming about the proposal of using light cavalry against heavy cavalry. In fact, all the plans in this period came from Chen Ze. Ouyang's strict implementation was just relayed to Chen Shen after thinking about and approving the plan.

It really succeeded.

Even now, Ouyang didn't dare to believe that things would go so smoothly. The commander of the heavy cavalry was really fooled and buried himself in the pit.

Naturally, this can also be explained.

After all, Chen Ze is the general of Qingyang empire. He must know his own general better than he is an outsider. Therefore, Chen Ze's plan is basically aimed at Xu Tianci's own character, which makes sense.

Ouyang's strict explanation is correct, but Chen Ze doesn't know what Xu Tianci's character is, but when Gu Qingfeng and Zhang Hualin were hidden in Zheng Yuanyun's big account, they paid attention to every confidant around Zheng Yuanyun, and Chen Ze also saw everyone's performance through the system, so they knew it in mind.

For Xu Tianci, he knew that he was also a prudent general, but in addition to being prudent, he was also ambitious. Perhaps because he was in charge of such invincible arms as heavy cavalry, his self-confidence was also extremely strong.

Chen zezhen was right about this. His plan, even the position of digging trenches, did not exceed Xu Tianci's psychological expectations, which could ensure that Xu Tianci continued to catch up.

The result is so obvious that even Ouyang feels like he is in a dream.

Of course, he knows it himself and will never speak it out to his subordinates. Otherwise, it's not a big problem that he can't stand the prestige of the general army. It's a big thing that affects morale.

If Chen Ze suddenly turns against the water after killing Zheng Yuanyun, then... They have to fight another battle, so if they hold Chen Ze to a high position at this time, Ouyang will be afraid that his morale will automatically be weakened by 30% if he opposes Chen Ze.

Moreover, it seems unnecessary to say, but in Ouyang's strict heart, Chen Ze's danger level has been raised to a higher level than Zheng Yuanyun.

While thinking, he was not idle. The troops outside the city were entering Juhe city in an orderly manner.

As Chen Shen said, the back gate has been completely controlled by him. More than one million troops brought by Ouyang's vigorous implementation have entered the city one after another. Unexpectedly, there is no shadow of an enemy.

This one million troops were transferred from the front battlefield under Zheng Yuanyun's eyes. 500000 troops were transferred from the main gate. In addition to those damaged during the previous siege, there were more than 200000 left at the main gate for sealing the city.

It can also be seen how much damage was done to the attacking soldiers in a siege, and how long it took. Even if Ouyang tried his best to preserve his troops, he still lost more than 100000 or 200000 troops.

The other 500000 is composed of 250000 divided from the city gates on the left and right sides, plus the 200000 already in Chen Shen, forming a total of 1.2 million troops.

And Zheng Yuanyun.

Ouyang's execution has always been calculated.

Zheng Yuanyun's total strength was only 600000. During the siege, the total strength of his three gates was estimated to be about 100000, but this is not the key point.

The point is that all the 100000 heavy cavalry on the back gate are destroyed!

As a result, Zheng Yuanyun lost 200000 troops, leaving only 400000 troops. More importantly, the heavy cavalry Zheng Yuanyun had always believed to rely on was completely destroyed.

The loss of Zheng Yuanyun's combat power is unparalleled, and it also gives Ouyang a great opportunity to launch a general attack!
