Chapter 1427 The attack
The Ross cavalry fled in panic toward the foot of the mountain. Just as they fled to the foot of the mountain, countless black cavalry suddenly surged out of the darkness. The Ross cavalry was frightened and rushed to fight. In a blink of an eye, they were completely defeated.
The Qin cavalry chased the defeated army and killed the defeated army, killing the defeated army to death.
The remaining defeated troops fled into the fortress in panic.
Kitchens looked at the cavalry in front of him who looked like a broken dog and couldn't help but feel angry. Kitchens forced himself to calm down.
"General, what should I do now? Will I send reinforcements?" the general asked at a loss.
Kikans said in a deep voice: "What reinforcements are sent? The enemy is waiting for us to come to our door!"
"But if reinforcements are not sent, the Zuofeng Fortress will be afraid~~!" the general said worriedly.
Kycans sighed, "There is no other way now! I can only hope that the soldiers of the Zuo Peak Fortress can repel the enemy by themselves!" Kycans was a little confused. He didn't understand how the Qin army successfully broke into the Zuo Peak Fortress! I'm afraid that Kycans would never have dreamed that the Qin army actually climbed up from the cliff.
Zuofeng Fortress.
The Qin army occupied the city gate and immediately sent a signal to open the city gate. At the same time, the Ross army in the fortress rushed towards this side as if madly.
Tens of thousands of Ross troops rushed to a place only thirty steps away from the city gate. At this time, the crossbowmen in Ross' army were firing arrows up and down at the city gate. The arrows were raining. Although the Qin soldiers were prepared in advance, Qin soldiers were still constantly shot to the ground by arrows flying from the air.
At this moment, a ball of fire rose from the Ross army, and the huge fireball rolled dozens of Ross soldiers into the air.
The Ross army did not stop because of this, but the charge was faster.
However, then, violent explosions sounded one after another, and clusters of Ross soldiers were engulfed by fireballs.
Ross' army was in chaos and some began to run backwards.
At this moment, eight hundred Qin army soldiers suddenly appeared behind the side of the Ross army and launched a rapid attack.
The Qin army rushed into the Ross army and waved their swords to kill them. The soldiers of the Ross army were slashed to the ground one after another. The Ross army, which was suddenly attacked from the back, was in chaos. Some wanted to escape, some wanted to continue attacking the city gate, and some turned around to counterattack the Qin army behind. Although the Ross army had not collapsed yet, its soldiers were already very frightened.
At this time, a thousand Qin cavalry team rushed into the castle from the city gate.
The Qin cavalry raised their thunder and crashed into the Ross army with an indomitable momentum, and rushed into the Ross army in one go. The Ross army, which was already on the verge of collapse, immediately collapsed completely.
The Qin army cavalry chased Ross' defeated the army, and the iron hooves ruthlessly trampled the soldiers of the Ross' army down. The swords and swords shone, and people's heads soared into the sky. There was no suspense in the battle situation.
Half an hour later, the fortress had become quiet. Some Qin soldiers were cleaning the battlefield. The fortress was full of devastated fires jumping.
At about this, the Youfeng Fortress was also captured. At this point, the strategic barrier of the Khwarezm Fortress, the Youfeng Fortress was captured by the First Qin Army Corps!
In this battle, the 40,000 defenders of the two fortresses were wiped out, more than half of which were captured, and the other 30,000 cavalrymen who tried to rescue were mostly annihilated by the Qin army; the Qin army's losses were minimal. In addition to the combat effectiveness of the Qin army's First Legion was far above the other side, there was another very important reason. The Luos never thought that the Qin army would dare to launch a raid from a cliff.
"General, the fortresses at the left and right peaks have become quiet! Have you defeated the enemy?" the general guessed.
Kikans looked at Zuofeng Fortress and shook his head with a serious expression, "No! It's not that we have repelled the enemy, but that the enemy finally broke through the fortress!"
The general was startled, "How is this possible?"
When the day came, the soldiers of Ros in the Khwarezm Fortress were shocked to find that the Qin army's battle flag was floating on the fortress of the left and right peaks.
Qin army camp.
"Hahaha, now the Fortress of the Zuofeng is in our hands! You can cook the Ross people as you want!" Zhang Fei laughed.
Zhuge Liang smiled and said, "I fought beautifully yesterday! The First Legion deserves to be the signboard of the empire!"
Zhang Fei joked: "Military advisor, you were not relieved yesterday!"
Zhuge Liang smiled.
Zhang Fei said excitedly: "Our army can launch an attack on the main subway immediately!"
"No! Don't rush to attack the main subway! Now our army has controlled the left and right peak fortress, that is, the left and right mountain roads! We can bypass the main subway and first hit the support of the Ross people!" Zhuge Liang said.
Zhang Fei thought and nodded, grinned and said, "Just listen to you!"
Zhuge Liang said: "We can use the First Legion Light Cavalry and some of the Xianbei cavalry to bypass the main block of Khwarezm and raid the enemy's support!"
"Okay! Just do it! This time I will lead the team myself!"
Zhuge Liang was stunned, "How can this be done? Yide, as the chief general of the army, how can you take risks in person!"
"A bullshit army chief! My old Zhang is not as smart as you, and being a forward general is more suitable!" Zhang Fei said carelessly.
"But~~"
"Okay OK! You scholars are just talking nonsense! I am the head coach, you must listen to me!"
Zhuge Liang shook his head with a wry smile.
At noon that day, the Qin army set up camp three miles away from the front of the Khwarezm Fortress. At the same time, nearly 20,000 light cavalry teams of the First Army and 30,000 Xianbei cavalry bypassed the Khwarezm Fortress from the mountain road. The reason why the Qin cavalry did not act at night was because Zhuge Liang believed that Kikans, as a general who had been in battle for a long time in the Ross army, should have speculated on the Qin army's actions as soon as the Zuofeng Fortress was lost. However, this was not the case.
"General, our scout found that the Qin army cavalry had gone around the mountain roads on both sides!" The general reported to Kikans.
Kikans was stunned, then his expression moved, "No! They want to raid our support force!!"
When he heard this, the generals present were shocked. One of the generals said anxiously: "General, we must find a way!"
Kikans thought for a moment and said helplessly: "We can't send reinforcements! We can only inform the support troops with Fei Ge's letter! We will send Fei Ge's letter immediately!" "Yes!"
Zhang Fei led 50,000 cavalry down from the mountain road and came to the official road behind Khwarezm. Although this official road was traveling among the mountains and ridges, it was very spacious.
Zhang Fei turned his head and looked at the Khwazm Fortress and said confidently: "It's ours sooner or later!" He turned his head to the general Zhang Zu and said: "Send the order and the whole army will advance at full speed!" "Yes!"
At the same time, 60,000 Ross reinforcements and 300,000 dan of grain and grass have entered the Khwarezm Mountains. The Ross reinforcements were originally 150,000, and the other 90,000 are now in Tony City, and most of the other grain and grass are also in Tony City. The reason why the Ross people did not transport all the grain and grass to the Khwarezm Fortress was, for safety, and the other was that the transportation tools and civilians could only transport so much grain and grass at one time.
The next morning, the reinforcements of Ross who were on the road again suddenly received an emergency flying pigeon letter forwarded from Tony City. After reading the letter, General Ross was shocked and immediately ordered the team to turn around immediately.
Sixty thousand Ross reinforcements and more than one hundred thousand civilians transporting food and grass hurriedly turned around on the mountain road, and the scene seemed a bit chaotic. Some people fell into a cliff in a hurry.
At this time, less than ten miles behind them, the Qin army cavalry was moving forward rapidly on the mountain road, and the sound of horse hooves echoed among the mountains like thunder. There was no other noise, which showed that these Qin army cavalry were very well-trained!
