Husband, forgive me

Chapter 342 The Brave Wins
Rabbits will bite people when they are in a hurry, let alone we are humans!

Instead of sitting still!

It's better to take the initiative to attack and catch the opponent by surprise. This is the way to win.

The island is small in size.

Moreover, during the past few days on the island, Li Mu has already opened up roads in the forest, connecting the entire island.

From here to the west coast, it is only a dozen miles away.

Although the reinforcements that came this time were mainly infantry.

However, considering the large area of ​​Qingqiu Island, tens of thousands of square kilometers, Li Mu still brought three thousand cavalry.

Fortunately.

Because these iron cavalry were useless in the landing battle, Li Mu incorporated them into the rear army, and they were not damaged in several conflicts.

With the terrifying speed of the cavalry, it will be there in 10 minutes!
quickly!

We saw what happened on the west coast.

Canoes were still floating in the sea, corpses were everywhere on the beach, Li Mu's army huddled in the forest, and kept firing arrows outside, shooting and killing the Yin soldiers who tried to rush ashore.

Rely on the trend of geography.

Really blocked those people!

"charge!"

At the front of the line, Ji Gongsheng held up the blade in his hand and pointed at the enemy in the shallows: "Kill!"

Iron riding like a tide!

Stepping directly on the turbulent sea water, he rushed towards the Yin soldiers who were huddled behind the canoe!
See so many cavalry coming!
Those Yin soldiers turned around and ran away, trying to escape to the depths of the sea to avoid the pursuit of the cavalry!

But Ji Gongsheng obviously didn't want to let them go!
The cavalry charged furiously, and the speed between them quickly shortened!
Except for the three rows of cavalry in the front with shields in their left hands and guns in their right, the cavalry behind them took off their bows and arrows and threw them at the enemies in the sea!

The arrows shot by the three thousand cavalry turned into a rain of death, continuously falling into the sea!

After three rounds of arrow rain!

The surface of the sea was already blood-red, and there were a large number of corpses floating here and there. Those who survived by luck swam towards the deep sea one after another, and they were already routed.

"The first three rows continue to charge!"

Ji Gongsheng shouted loudly: "The next five rounds of salvo!"

Hearing Ji Gongsheng's words, the first three rows of Lancers chased into the sea and kept killing the caught fish.

And the cavalry behind!

Constantly bending the bow and nodding arrows, a round of arrow rain whizzed down, continuously covering the sea, shooting and killing those scattered Yin soldiers!

After five salvos!

The surface of the sea was already full of floating corpses, and the shooter began to shoot freely, looking for those who were still alive, and shooting them one by one!

Just under 3 minutes!
The Yin soldiers who attacked the west coast have been killed and scattered. More than [-] people have died at least a thousand, and the others have all collapsed!
"return!"

Ji Gongsheng shouted to the cavalrymen chasing into the sea: "Take a rest for 5 minutes and get ready to go to the east coast!"

"Your Majesty!"

Seeing the large floating corpses on the sea, Li Mu hurried over and asked, "There are still a lot of routs, do you want to leave a part of the troops to watch them?"

"Need not!"

Ji Gongsheng shook his head, and said to Li Mu: "Let the Yin soldiers defending the west coast join the infantry behind, follow behind the army, and rush to the east coast together. Let's defeat the enemies there first!"

promise!
Li Mu nodded, and immediately conveyed the order!
5 minutes later!

The cavalry battalion set off again, rushing to the east coast in a hurry!
As for the brigade of infantry behind!
Directly divert midway and go to the east coast for support!
When we arrived on the east coast, we found that there was already a pot of porridge.

Stand on high and observe.

Warships gathered on the sea, there were dozens of them.

Teams of infantry went directly to the sea to form a thousand-man phalanx, and then advanced towards the shore holding their guns and shields, trying to rush up.

on the coast.

Li Mu's soldiers huddled in the woods, constantly bending their bows and shooting the infantrymen who rushed up.

And in the rear of the battle formation.

A large number of improvised trebuchets danced, throwing stones at the enemy's battle formation.

The soldiers holding the shields were constantly being thrown to the ground by stones. Once the soldiers holding the shields fell down, a large number of arrows flew over immediately, tearing up the gap quickly, thus tearing up the enemy's battle formation. Soon there was a pile of dead bodies.

This is an outnumbered defensive battle.

Although the thousand-man team that rushed up was constantly defeated, it would be difficult to resist as long as the trebuchet behind threw stones!

"How many people do you think there are?"

Looking at the battlefield on the beach, Ji Gongsheng asked Li Mu!
how many people?
Look out to sea!

There are forty or fifty ghost ships. According to the size of these ships, they may be able to carry [-] to [-] soldiers.

"Visual estimation is between 1 and 5!"

Li Mu stared at the sea, and said in a deep voice: "If fully loaded, these ships can hold 30000 people. If the half-empty and half-real is a feint attack, there should be about 15000 people."

Hearing Li Mu's conclusion.

My heart moved.

If it is 30000 people, this is the direction of the main attack.

Even after getting reinforcements.

We are only 8000 soldiers here, and it is impossible to withstand their onslaught.

Even if this is a feint attack, based on 15000 people, the number of people is twice as large as ours, and it only takes some time to secure us.

So whether it is the main attack direction or a feint attack, we must deploy heavy defenses, otherwise something will happen here.

at this time!

The thousand-man team that had just washed up on the beach was pushed back again, and there were hundreds of corpses in the sea, and the sea was dyed red!
"How many teams of thousands have they rushed up?"

Ji Gongsheng found the general commanding the battle and asked!
"Four waves!"

Seeing Ji Gongsheng coming, the general quickly said: "Except for the first wave that almost attacked, the other three waves were smashed back when they reached the beach!"

Hearing the general's report, Ji Gongsheng remained silent.

After thinking about it for a while, Ji Gongsheng said to Li Mu: "I estimate that this is a feint attack, at most no more than 8000 people, and Gongsun Qi's main attack direction is not here!"

Uh!
8000 people?
Hearing Ji Gongsheng's words, doesn't that mean that our defensive army is more numerous than their attacking troops?
If that's the case, we've really been played!

Our number is not as large as the opponent's. If they really hold back our main force with a small number of troops, we really can't play!
"Are you sure?"

Regarding Ji Gongsheng's conclusion, Li Mu didn't dare to deny it, nor did he dare to admit it, so he quickly asked, "Could it be that their main attack direction is on the north and the south?"

The terrain of this Turtle Island is very flat.

It is possible to attack from the southeast to the northwest, which is a very unfavorable terrain for the defender.

The enemies of the west coast are repulsed!
There is a fierce battle on the east coast, but there is no movement on the north and south coasts, which has to make people suspicious!

If their main force is still hidden in the sea, they will probably come from these two directions!
If this is the case, then we have to change our strategy, otherwise we will be surrounded and annihilated if a large number of enemies surround us!

"Of course!"

Ji Gongsheng sneered and said: "Although their offensive is very fierce, the attack intensity is too low. If there are really 3 to [-] horses, they can directly deploy five thousand-man teams lined up, and they will definitely be able to come up if they charge up to three times. It's clearly a delay."

"In this case, do you want to withdraw some troops?"

Li Mu said to Ji Gongsheng in a low voice: "Gongsun Qi hasn't shown up for a long time. If he leads troops to land on the island quietly from the north and south banks, we will be in danger!"

at this time!

A messenger hurried over!

"Report to Your Majesty!"

The messenger fell off his horse and shouted loudly, "Enemies have been found in the southern sea area, and the number is unknown."

This.
Hearing the orderer's report, a trace of doubt flashed in my heart!
Did Ji Gongsheng's conjecture come true, and Gongsun Qi landed from the south?

The orderly had just finished speaking.

Another messenger ran over and said urgently: "Report to Your Majesty, a large number of enemies have been found in the north, and there are more than [-] warships!"

The north and the south are also here?
Hearing the orderer's report, I suddenly had a very bad feeling. Is this the rhythm of encirclement?
But then again!

Can an army of [-] really encircle [-]?

Under normal conditions!
There is no possibility, but the island we are on has a small area!
If Gongsun Qi really divided the army into four, each with an equal number of people.

Regardless of whether our main force encounters any enemy army, it is unlikely to quickly eat the opponent, while the other three forces will quickly encircle and wrap us in dumplings.

"Surrounded on all sides!"

After receiving the guard's report, Li Mu's expression was not very good, and he quickly asked Ji Gongsheng: "The situation is very bad!"

"He's trying to die!"

After receiving the report from the guards, Ji Gongsheng sneered and said, "I don't care about the north. Since the enemy on the west coast has been defeated, even if they join forces together, they won't be able to cause any trouble. Take [-] infantry to the south coast, and then Establish a defensive line in the southeast position, be sure to strengthen the northeast direction, and protect our flank."

Hearing Ji Gongsheng's words, Li Mu's expression changed!
Quickly asked: "Your Majesty wants to attack?"

Our current location is the east coast.

Ji Gongsheng asked Li Mu to set up defenses in the southeast, that is, he planned to abandon the northwest direction and set the main battlefield here!
"Of course!"

Ji Gongsheng sneered and said: "Gongsun Qi dared to play the trick of encircling all sides in front of the widow, so the widow gave him a middle flower, first ate the bait here, and then relied on the beach to build a defensive position, and fought against them!"

This.
Hearing Ji Gongsheng's words, Li Mu's face was uncertain!

This decision is crazy!

Even if there are only 8000 people, it will be very difficult to defeat them quickly with our current strength!

And the island is so small!
Even if a line of defense is established in the southeast direction, it can only contain one enemy army. The enemy army landing from the north bank will quickly attack our rear and attack us back and forth to our death.

"That's it!"

Ji Gongsheng drew out his sword and said calmly: "The enemy is strong and we are weak. At this time, it is useless to plan a strategy to win thousands of miles. We only need one dead man to be ten. Only by putting them to death can we survive. You can do it!"

promise!
A character like Li Mu doesn't understand such a truth!

Seeing that Ji Gongsheng had made up his mind, he immediately hurried to the southeast with [-] infantrymen!

Thus.

Our military strength is 18000, which is twice as strong as the opponent.

But the problem is
For the enemy army that landed from the north coast, it only takes 15 minutes for the cavalry to arrive, and no matter how slow the infantry is, they will definitely be able to arrive within an hour.

In addition to the time to clear the battlefield and build defenses, the time left for us to attack is no more than 40 minutes!

In 40 minutes, defeating 8000 infantry covered by [-] or [-] warships is a gamble with little chance of winning. The disadvantage is not the difference in strength, but the short time given to us. This is simply impossible do it!

But now that they are surrounded by all sides, the arrow is on the string and has to be fired. It is useless to say anything. The brave will win when they meet on a narrow road.
