"General, this war has been going on for five days now!"
"The soldiers' physical strength is a little weak. I'm worried that if we continue to hold on, the army will collapse!"
"Yes! If we want to eat the entire Zhenbei Army in a short period of time, I'm afraid it will be a bit difficult!"
The lieutenants around Toya spoke one after another according to the battle situation.
As a general, how could Toya not understand these principles?
She said: "Destroying the northern city is not easy?"
She didn't want to retreat.
But now, practical issues have to be considered.
The lieutenants around him let out a long sigh, feeling a little helpless.
This is no longer a quick battle, it will inevitably last for about half a month.
It depends on both sides, who can't hold on first.
"General... General, we are fighting in a different place, and we are worried that the Wu Dynasty will have reinforcements!"
"That's right, once the reinforcements arrive, I'm afraid they won't be able to capture the Northern City, and they may even be surrounded by counterattacks!"
The lieutenants spoke.
"Besides, the fight has been going on for almost seven days, so the Emperor Wu must have been alarmed!"
"If I guess correctly, their reinforcements are almost here!"
Just saying...
Three scouts hurried over, knelt in front of Toya, and said urgently: "General, reinforcements from the Wu Dynasty have been found thirty miles behind the northern city!"
"The flag with stone characters should belong to Shi Gan's department!"
Because Shi Gandang led his troops into the Northern Desert before, so the people of the Northern Desert respected and hated Shi Gandang.
Respect him for being brave and daring to go deep alone.
Hatred is the invasion of the Northern Desert...
"Really, what are you afraid of?" Toya spat coldly, but there was no wave on her face.
"General...general, what should we do now?"
"Should we retreat?"
"In this case, I'm afraid the only option is to retreat!"
"yes!"
"But it's not easy to break in. Do we really want to withdraw?"
Right now, the battle loss ratio between the Wu Chao Army and the Northern Desert Army is about the same...
As for the Northern Desert Army, they still have an armored army that can turn the tide of the battle, so they are not at a disadvantage.
If they retreat, their morale will be unstable and their morale will be greatly reduced.
Toya said in a deep voice, "The Northern Desert Army must not retreat!"
"Fight to the death!"
"Alim, you immediately lead 20,000 heavy cavalry to block the Wu Dynasty's reinforcements!"
"Behind the Northern City, there is a vast plain, and it is our cavalry's world!"
Alimu took the order.
The armored army, combined with the armor-plated war horses, is simply like a tank of this era.
The fighting power is extremely terrifying.
The horses of the Northern Desert Army were all nearby the moment they broke through the northern city.
So, after a while, a group of iron cavalry was ready to go!
As they moved, dust swept everywhere and the earth trembled!
In order to capture the Northern City as soon as possible, Toya no longer carried out a ladder-shaped offensive strategy, but instead let the entire army attack.
Don’t stay behind!
Things are changing rapidly on the battlefield, so Toya doesn't dare to delay now!
Both sides are rushing to kill each other like crazy!
In this battle, both armies fought with unprecedented brilliance...
The Northern Desert also proved to the world how powerful they are!
The Wu Dynasty did not dare to underestimate this opponent in the slightest!
On the Batu side, more than half of the thick city wall has been demolished.
Although Zhang Hebu received the order to stop Batu, the Northern Desert Army was not a soft persimmon and could not kill them all in a short period of time.
Therefore, we can only kill and stop at the same time!
…
Alimu's side.
The cavalry passed through a fruit grove.
He stopped and let his cavalry pick fruits to satisfy his hunger and thirst.
And each person brought more than ten.
This side of the fruit forest was the only way for Wu Dynasty's reinforcements to pass, and it was also a wide plain.
So let the 20,000 heavy armored cavalry wait here for a while.
After about an hour or so, dust swept up and the earth trembled, accompanied by the neighing of war horses.
Alimu waited, heard the noise, and prepared for battle.
All, draw the bow...
After a while, the expeditionary force led by Shi Gandang appeared.
The cavalry leads.
Alimu Yin said: "I've been waiting for a long time, but it's finally here!"
"Brothers, wait until Shi Gandang's army approaches before firing arrows!"
"yes……"
The Wu Dynasty cavalry who rushed at the front naturally saw the heavy armor of the Northern Desert cavalry.
Many people were shocked in their hearts.
"It's actually the Northern Desert Army!"
"They have actually killed them through the Northern City?"
"impossible!"
Several lieutenants were still confused.
The rain of arrows from the sky fell madly in an instant, sweeping out a power that swallowed the whole sky.
Many people fell under their horses before they could react.
Just like cutting vegetables with a sharp knife, it is crisp and clean.
When the Wu Dynasty cavalry saw this, they did not retreat and wanted to overwhelm the Northern Desert Iron Armored Army.
Due to the distance, many cavalrymen were attacked by waves of arrows and were harvested crazily during the attack!
After Shi Gandang saw the current situation clearly, he shouted at the top of his lungs: "Come back, come back to me, and get back out of the range of the Northern Desert Army's arrows!"
After the order was given, the army stopped.
Shi Gandang watched the Northern Desert Armored Cavalry from a distance and said solemnly: "Is this the Northern Desert Army?"
In his impression, there is no such powerful army in the Northern Desert Army!
Moreover, the whole body is covered with armor, which looks very mysterious and terrifying!
"Returning to the general, it is indeed the Northern Desert Army!"
"The flying black flag is the Northern Desert King's flag..."
Shi Gandang could naturally see it, but he just couldn't believe it. The army not far away came from the Northern Desert.
His eyes dropped.
In this way, the two armies faced each other in the air.
As time passed, Shi Gandang gradually guessed their purpose!
Block reinforcements!
Immediately, Shi Gan ordered, "Archers, advance and release arrows!"
The archers rushed out in unison and formed an array.
Shoot an arrow.
The bows and arrows of the Wu Dynasty were modified and upgraded again and again, and their range was much farther than that of the Northern Desert Army.
Therefore, where they can shoot, the Northern Desert Army cannot shoot.
The arrow rain swept through with a crushing force.
Hit the armored army.
The armored army did not make any defense and stayed put!
Crackling!
The rain of arrows was like being shot on an iron plate. After a few sparks were thrown, they all fell to the ground.
Of the phalanx of 20,000 people, only ten people fell.
The remaining people are intact...
This scene shocked Shi Gandang, whose eyes widened in disbelief.
"this……"
"Is this a heavy armored cavalry?"
Shi Gandang was shocked.
The lieutenants around him were naturally stunned, and for a moment, they were a little at a loss.
"General...general, what should we do?"
"Our arrows can't penetrate their armor at all!"
"I'm afraid this requires a crossbow!"
Among the Wu Dynasty troops, only the Jin Yiwei were equipped with crossbows.
Shi Gandang did not believe in evil and shouted angrily, "After the bows and arrows retreat, the cavalry attacks!"
With an order, the cavalry rushed out again.
The war horses neigh.
dusty…
Alimu looked indifferent and said calmly: "Keep shooting arrows!"
