Chapter 141 The Battle of Zhuolu (15)
(PS: The guaranteed chapter 2 is updated at 9 pm)
When the sun rose from the horizon again, the Chiyou tribe, which had been fleeing in a panic, did not escape this time, but chose to seize the valley and guard it.
Standing next to the frame of Huangdi, Ouyang Shuo looked at the Valley of Fierce Li in front of him and felt inexplicably moved. In history, Chiyou was killed in the Valley of Fierce Li. It seems that this arduous pursuit battle is finally coming to an end.
"Feng Qing, Chi You did not retreat this time, but instead held the throne. Is there any fraud here?" At the critical moment, Huangdi still trusted his prime minister Feng Hou.
Fenghou shook his head and said, "Your Majesty, further south is the Hutuo River. I think Chiyou must have guessed that he could not cross the Hutuo River under our noses, so he thought that he would fight us to the death in the valley." As Fenghou, he guessed Chiyou's thoughts without a trace.
Huangdi was happy, "Okay, Chiyou is seeking death." No wonder Huangdi was so excited. There was really not much food in the army. If he continued to chase like this, his army would be dispersed without waiting for Chiyou's troops to surrender. Fortunately, God protected him and cut off Chiyou's last trace of vitality.
"Order the entire army to make rice, after eating, launch a general attack, take down the Valley of Evil Li and kill Chiyou in one fell swoop." Huangdi said excitedly.
"Abide by the order!"
There is no suspense in this decisive battle, and the number of troops between the two sides is too big. The Yanhuang Tribe coalition has had more than 80,000 people left since the battle. In addition, there are more than 4,000 people in the Yi Ren Legion. However, there are less than 8,000 people in the Chi You tribe, and there is not one of them.
Ouyang Shuo didn't know whether the choice of Xunlong to point the acupoint was right. Before the battle, Xunlong to point the acupoint was based on the advantages of military ration pills, fully utilized his nature as a mission madman, and swept away all the branches of Chiyou's camp, and won 7,500 contribution points in one fell swoop. After the battle, the two hundred troops brought by Xunlong to point the acupoint could hardly cause any storm and retreated from the battlefield early.
At 9 o'clock in the morning, the Yanhuang coalition officially launched an attack on the Valley of Evil Li.
The Valley of Evil Li is like a large pocket, narrow on the outside and wide on the inside. The narrow valley entrance cannot be deployed on a large scale. Therefore, the Yanhuang Alliance has only a large number of troops. Due to the terrain, the troops have to be arranged to launch attacks one after another.
In order to gain enough time for the seed troops who retreated early, Chiyou arranged all 8,000 people at the entrance of the valley without leaving any way out for himself. At the same time, in order to boost morale, Chiyou even took the battle himself.
In this way, a decisive battle in the field turned into a tough battle.
The Yanhuang coalition had an absolute numerical advantage and adopted the strategy of alternating attacks in batches. Fenghou divided the coalition into eight 10,000 teams. In addition to leaving one 10,000 team as a reserve, the remaining seven 10,000 teams took turns to launch an attack. After the last 10,000 team was exhausted, they immediately replaced and replaced a 10,000 team. The 10,000 team was fully rested and then pushed up again, and this cycle was repeated.
On the other hand, the Chiyou tribe was not so lucky, and they had to endure long battles. However, the Chiyou tribe was not without advantages. First, the soldiers were determined to die and had a strong will to resist. Second, when the troops on both sides were equal, both morale and weapon level were stronger than the offensive troops. In this way, the Chiyou tribe really defended tenaciously.
Huangdi was a little anxious after not being able to conquer for a long time. If he continued to fight according to this trend, even if he could eventually destroy Chiyou's tribe, he would suffer heavy casualties on his side, which Huangdi didn't want to see.
Huangdi looked around for a while and said in a deep voice: "Do you have any good ideas for the current situation?"
Ouyang Shuo's heart moved, he bowed to Huangdi, and said, "Your Majesty, the Yiren Legion asks for battle!"
Huangdi's eyes froze, "Why do you say there is no clothes and there is no joke in the army? Are you sure?"
"As long as Your Majesty agrees to me with two conditions, I promise to take down the remnants of Chiyou's troops in one fell swoop. If they fail, they are willing to accept military law." Ouyang Shuo was also unambiguous.
Huangdi was shocked and finally believed it a little, saying loudly: "Okay. Let me tell you, as long as I can do it, it will definitely satisfy you."
Ouyang Shuo nodded and said, "Your Majesty, you also know that the Yiren Legion is not subordinate to each other and it is difficult to command it uniformly. Therefore, my first condition is to hope that Your Majesty will issue a battle mission so that all Yiren will hand over their respective troops to me for unified command."
"Okay, I promise you." Huangdi did not hesitate at all.
As soon as he finished speaking, a system prompt sound came from Ouyang Shuo's ear.
"Battle Announcement: Huangdi releases a battle mission [Decisive Battle]. Mission requirements: Players in the Yellow Emperor camp agree to hand over their respective troops to Yiren Representatives, Wuyi, unified command. Mission reward: Merit value 2N points, and the battle contribution value 4N points, of which N is the number of troops handed over by the player."
Take the lowest 100 people, and the mission rewards alone are 200 merit points and 800 contribution points. In addition, the contributions obtained by these troops' battlefield killing are also included in the names of their respective lords. No player can resist this temptation of being naked. Even Di Chen is reluctant to abandon these mission rewards, grits his teeth and takes over the task, and obediently hand over his troops' command.
Ouyang Shuo continued: "Your Majesty, relying on the four thousand people of the Indrama Army alone is indeed a bit thin. Therefore, my second condition is like hoping that Your Majesty can arrange two generals, Li Mu and Chang Xian, to lead five thousand elite troops, cooperate with the Indrama Army, and launch an attack together."
After hearing Ouyang Shuo's conditions, Huangdi was more confident in Ouyang Shuo's plan and nodded and said, "Okay, it seems that you are really not a hotheaded moment, I promise you."
"Thank you Your Majesty for your trust." Ouyang Shuo knew very well that as long as he won this battle, he would be enough to establish his absolute advantage. This battle in Zhuolu was already his own pocket.
Ouyang Shuo turned around and returned to the Inhuman Legion, summoned Bai Hua and others to start assigning tasks.
"It is difficult for cavalry to play out in this battle. Therefore, swords, shields, and archers are the main force. I suggest that General Shi Wansui is the main general and General Mu Guiying is the deputy general. What do you think?"
Bai Hua and others became more convinced of Ouyang Shuo, so they naturally followed their advice.
After obtaining the consent of his allies, Ouyang Shuo began to arrange for the reorganization of the Inhuman Legion. In his plan, he must ensure the absolute command of Shi Wansui and Mu Guiying. Therefore, not only Ouyang Shuo himself will not play, but other players and generals will not consider it.
Fortunately, most of the remaining alien troops were friendly forces of the Shanhai Alliance. Di Chen's Handan Alliance had only 500 people left, and the losses were the most heavy. As for the Sanren players, there were only 200 people left. The remaining 3,300 people were all friendly forces of the Shanhai Alliance.
Among the 3,300 people, there are 1,600 core troops of the Shanhai Alliance. With more than half of the casualties in the Yi Ren Legion, it is extremely rare that Shanhai Alliance can still maintain a casualty rate of one-fifth. Among the four hundred people who died in battle, the swords and shield soldiers and cavalry were the main ones, and as for the crossbowmen, they were almost unscathed.
Finally, it was counted that the 4,000 Indies Legion, 2,000 Sword and Shield Soldiers, 1,500 Crossbowmen, and 500 Cavalrymen. The cavalry troops experienced two assaults in advance and followed, and suffered extremely heavy losses. In this battle, Ouyang Shuo directly excluded them.
After the reorganization of the Yi Ren Legion, Li Mu and Chang Xian had already selected troops, each leading 2,500 troops. At Ju Su's suggestion, two thousand sword and shield soldiers were used as the front end of the central army, and were arranged at the front of the central army, acting as the Dinghai Ding Needle, and facing Chi You head-on. One thousand five hundred crossbowmen acted as the rear army, arranged behind the sword and shield soldiers, and provided firepower support. Li Mu's troops were arranged on the right wing. Chang Xian's troops were arranged on the left wing.
After the arrangement was made, after a team of ten thousand people was withdrawn as usual, Ouyang Shuo did not intend to give Chiyou's troops a breather and directly pushed the final ace up.
Before leaving, Ouyang Shuo found Shi Wansui alone and had a secret conversation with him for a few minutes. Even Bai Hua and others didn't know the content of the conversation.
The final battle has finally arrived.
The exhausted Chiyou tribe trembled in his heart when he saw the sword and shield soldiers standing in front. The well-equipped sword and shield soldiers made up for the gap in strength and morale. Especially the several squadrons standing in front of the front, this time Ouyang Shuo spared no effort to push the three infantry squadrons of Shanhai Town to the front of the team. The elite mountain barbarian soldiers were not at all inferior to the soldiers of the Jiuli tribe.
As for Chi You himself, he was taken over by Shi Wansui, which can be regarded as ace vs. ace.
Seeing Ouyang Shuo's troops and formations, other players could no longer say anything out of the ordinary. Ouyang Shuo knew very well that if you want to win the respect of players, you had to stand up at critical moments and learn to suffer losses.
The crossbowman troops in the rear took the lead in launching the attack.
Under Mu Guiying's precise command, the 1,500 crossbowmen made the Chiyou tribe see the huge power of the strong bow and hard crossbow from later generations, the extremely long range, the super penetration power, and the Chiyou tribe, which had no protection, was harvested row after row, like wheat.
The sword and shield troops led by Shi Wansui were held tightly against the front, and they could not make any progress. The left and right wings were stopped by Li Mu and Chang Xian, two generals, led the elite troops. The helpless Chi You could only watch his children fall under the strong bow and crossbow of Yi Ren. The unwilling Jiuli warrior looked at the arrows inserted in his chest before falling down, his eyes full of confusion.
