Chapter 230 The Lost Battle

Lin Mu stood at the foot of the mountain, looking up at the soldiers who were constantly attacking the various caves.

The soldiers of the True Dragon Legion, wearing wolf shields or fine steel shields, advanced slowly on the rugged mountain road like snails. When they were about to approach some caves, countless black arrows suddenly erupted from the cave mouths, like bees. It was buzzing, buzzing, and the arrows hit the shield or armor, jingling, but some soldiers who were unlucky, would be shot into some parts of the body with wrong protection by the arrows. They snorted, spattered several streams of blood, and were rescued by Pao Ze behind.

After the beeping black arrows, a burst of red "iron ore fire rain" suddenly spewed out from the entrance of the cave. These "rains" were also accompanied by a little sparkle of fire and water, ejected on the mountain grass, making a sound .

It was the ore from which the craftsmen in the foundry smelted and cast refined iron. It was casually put into the furnace to heat it, and then thrown out to be used as materials for defending the city.

Some soldiers were hit by the "iron ore block rain", and the sound of babbling suddenly appeared on the battlefield accompanied by a smell of meat. The wounded soldiers wailed endlessly. The soldiers were a little flustered. Back away slowly, without advancing for a while.

Seeing this, Lin Mu frowned. This is a bit bad. Before he could confront him head-on, he was already suppressed by the soldiers defending the city, and his morale was severely hit. Lin Mu is not the commander in chief, so I don't know if the system will have a reminder about morale decay.

It's a pity that the True Dragon Legion currently doesn't have a top strategist, and such a situation caught the True Dragon Legion by surprise.

The battle of the True Dragon Legion can only rely on Liu Feng, He Yuan and other generals to make their own plans. It is absolutely unambiguous for them to charge in battle, but it is really embarrassing for them to plan the layout.

In the previous battle against the bandits, the True Dragon Legion had prepared in advance, and Feng Zhong and others planned behind the scenes. Now, facing the sudden change in the battlefield situation, the legion's response was a bit lagging.

Although the ranks of the soldiers of the True Dragon Legion are relatively high, war is not only about strength, but also strategy and tactics. In addition to the ranks of soldiers, other aspects of the True Dragon Legion still need to be improved.

This is a lesson, a lesson for Liu Feng and other generals to review, and a lesson for the soldiers of the True Dragon Legion to review themselves.

"Liu Feng, did the soldiers behave like this when facing the difficulties of attacking the city when they were carrying out the mission of suppressing bandits in the Five Mountains before? They panicked themselves!" Lin Mu asked a little seriously.

Lin Mu did not participate in the mission of suppressing bandits in Wushan, but the results were brilliant, and Lin Mu did not go into details about the process, and did not know the specific performance of the soldiers.

Now, this attack on Xu Zhao's Qinglong Village, the performance of the soldiers is somewhat unsatisfactory.

"Reporting to my lord, everyone used to have a plan and a routine to attack the city. Now, when we launch an attack, it is a situation of hindsight. The soldiers defending the city are already waiting in full force, so it has been difficult to open the situation. The soldiers will inevitably There was a mistake." Liu Feng knew that the soldiers had advanced more than a dozen times, but there were no results, but the number of injured soldiers increased, which caused some psychological loopholes for the soldiers who had been fighting smoothly. But Liu Feng, as the commander in chief, still needs to defend the soldiers.

"The soldiers of the True Dragon Legion are invincible and invincible when they fight against the wind. But they are not satisfactory when they fight against the wind. As a commander in the future, you need to strengthen your training in this area. I will do it when I go back. Let Feng Zhong pay attention to this aspect of training when training."

Fengzhong's current training plan is to speed up the advancement and level of soldiers, as well as the level of some skills and specialties. However, as the sergeants encounter more and more battles, which become more and more difficult, the battlefield of soldiers is more and more difficult. Literacy and battlefield response ability also need to be improved.

At the same time, Lin Mu's desire for counselors also reached a peak. To get this strategy done, we must abduct a counselor back.

"Liu Feng, you order the soldiers to retreat first, not to attack for the time being, and to recharge their batteries to restore everyone's morale and physical strength." Lin Mu instructed Liu Feng.

"No!" Liu Feng had no choice but to order. Liu Feng's commanding ability is still immature and needs to be improved urgently. Fighting thieves and bandits with outdated equipment and lack of supplies for defending the city is okay, but if you are facing an army led by super generals like Cao Ren and Yu Jin, it will be like giving food.

The golden ocean that filled the mountains receded slowly, and I believe the Azure Dragon Army defending the city also breathed a sigh of relief.

Lin Mu gathered Liu Feng, He Yuan, Wang Sheng, Zhang Xiaohu, Shan Gong and other generals together and sat on a mountain lawn to discuss the situation of the battle.

It's not that they ignored the five thousand elites who were besieged in the cave, but that there was no way to advance for the time being. Lin Mu also believed in the strength of Tianjia Seventy-eight and others, and they could persist for a long time in the narrow cave. The five thousand elites carried enough food and grass, so they didn't have to worry about being trapped to death.

The most urgent task now is to open up the strong defense of Qinglongzhai.

"He Yuan, you are rushing forward, have you seen the general of the Qinglong Army who is good at archery?" Lin Mu asked immediately after gathering.

"See, he is tall and strong. He is about six feet tall and about twenty-seven or eight years old. He has a majestic face, muscular arms, and powerful eyes. But the most conspicuous thing is that he has a scar under his right eye, which looks hideous. Vicious." He Yuan recalled.

"Is the scar under his right eye crescent-shaped?" Lin Mu immediately asked.

"Hey, my lord, have you seen him?" Wang Shenghu next to him questioned, indicating that Lin Mu was right.

"Could it be him...it should be him! But how did he join Xu Zhao's command, how did he become the Azure Dragon Army?" Lin Mu murmured with a guess in his heart.

In the world of mythology, the faces of military generals generally do not leave any scars, and injuries on the face can be fixed with some pills. Only some scars are left with special significance. According to his memory, Lin Mu knew that only a few top generals would have scars on their faces.

According to He Yuan's information, Lin Mu thought of a person, so he guessed and asked, "How is his combat power? What level of strength is he likely to reach?"

"We fought against him at the time, but he didn't try his best, as if he had some scruples. Judging by our Huang-level Xuan-level strength, we guessed that he should already be above the ground level. The weapons he used were tiger-head guns and bows, and he swept away with one hand. The Bafang Spear was superb. We only supported for two rounds before we retreated. When we used the sharp knife plan, he took out the bow and arrow on his back and shot a senior general with one arrow. He hit four out of four arrows, like a marksman. .” He Yuan said bitterly with lingering fear.

"Okay, I already know the specific situation of this city defender, let's talk about the situation of this siege." Lin Mu changed the topic to the siege.

"Liu Feng, everyone calm down now, how do you think this battle should be fought?" Lin Mu asked.

Lin Mu asked Liu Feng, He Yuan and others about the Qinglong Army's information, but it was useless. Although they were members of the Azure Dragon Army before, they were only on the periphery, responsible for some recruit training and other matters, and they did not reach the core level of Xu Zhao, so they knew very little about Xu Zhao.

"My lord, I can't think of it for the time being." Liu Feng was a little confused.

The original plan was to sneak attack at night, open up some caves, then slowly advance, slowly occupy other caves, and then occupy various exits, surround them to death, use this to threaten them, force them to surrender, and achieve the greatest results.

It's a pity that things backfired, because the sneak attack plan of the troop transport was discovered, the defenders were prepared, and the real dragon army rushed to attack again, resulting in failure, falling into a disadvantage, and helpless.

There are hundreds of thousands of defenders in this Qinglongzhai, it’s not paper. Even if the True Dragon Legion has 200,000 elite soldiers, it still needs battles to reflect its combat power. Now they are limited by their defense methods. Everyone They were all suffocating, and their morale was a little low.

There is a generally accepted theory about siege: Only an army ten times stronger than the defending city can break through the city head-on. The True Dragon Legion currently does not have ten times the combat power of Qinglongzhai, and it is not a conventional frontal siege and defense battle.

"What about you?" Lin Mu was a little disappointed, and then asked King He Yuan to promote them, and they all shook their heads.

Lin Mu was disappointed, but he was not in despair. Liu Feng and the others had experienced very few battles, and read even fewer books on the art of war, and there were basically no books on the art of war in Yinglong Valley, which were passed on by word of mouth. Less taught.

It is really difficult for them to come up with a good strategy.

Lin Mu patted Liu Feng and the others on the shoulder, and said softly: "Everyone, don't be discouraged. You lack experience, and you have little experience in observing and analyzing factors such as the right time, place, and people. You just need to strengthen it in the future. This battle is a lesson."

"Since you have no choice, you can adopt the strategy I just came up with, and you can learn from it." Lin Mu said a strategy that came to mind.

"In marching and fighting, in addition to the strength of soldiers, logistics and other righteous aspects, there are also supplementary factors such as the right time, place, people and strange ways. Today, I will let everyone experience the power of using strange ways as a supplement." Lin Mu slowly Said.

"The Qinglong army is firmly guarding the cave, and it is difficult to attack for a while, but the Qinglong village is built in the cave, and its function is to forge weapons, so there is a huge disadvantage: heat!"

"Hot?" Liu Feng and the others asked in confusion.

"Yes, it is heat. Heat includes many things. The first is geothermal heat. Forging weapons requires the construction of many furnaces and high temperatures, so the mountain must be very hot. Another thing is that the circulation of breath in the mountain is more difficult than in an open city. Turbidity, this is air heat! As long as our soldiers pour some cold water into the holes that discharge black smoke, a large amount of hot steam will inevitably be generated. Due to the relationship between geothermal heat and air heat, the defenders will definitely be greatly disturbed. There must be a miraculous effect in a strong attack." Lin Mu spoke out an immature strategy.
