"Yes...it's reinforcements!"
Someone in the Yong army cried out with tears welling up in his eyes.
The divine soldier descended from the sky and turned out to be a comrade-in-arms!
The 30,000 Yong soldiers who were originally thought to be doomed suddenly became energized, and their guns and knives became more sharp and fearless.
The ones rushing to the rescue at this moment were the 40,000 Wuding garrison troops who were left in the city.
In the past few months, they had been hiding in the city, already holding their breath due to the epidemic. When they heard the deafening shouting and killing outside the city, they were even more eager to fight and their blood boiled!
They brought out the dry wind in Wuding City, mixed with a strong smell of coke, as if indicating that the Wuding garrison had returned from the cruel epidemic!
"kill!"
The Yong army's morale increased greatly and their attacks were fierce and swift.
The Northern Army was unaware of the truth. As they watched troops and horses pour out of Wuding City in an endless stream, the enemy's situation was unclear, and the general's orders were delayed, the army's morale was immediately shaken.
As one side gained strength while the other lost, the Northern Army's formation was torn to pieces and the situation on the front line was reversed in an instant!
In the distance, when Mo Qiandai saw the Yong flag being raised from the Wuding city wall, the smile on his face froze and an inexplicable chill climbed up his spine.
He sat up straight in disbelief. In a flash, countless thoughts flashed through his mind, but he couldn't grasp any clues in such a short time.
At this time, Deputy General Chang stretched his neck forward, his eyes bulged, and he looked even more shocked than Mo Qiandai.
How... How is this possible! The 200,000 garrison troops in Wuding were all killed!
Deputy General Chang gripped the reins tightly with both hands, his shoulders shaking uncontrollably, his mind quickly reviewing everything that had happened in the past few days.
When the epidemic first broke out, Wuding had not yet reacted, and their spies witnessed the people falling ill with their own eyes, confirming that the epidemic was successful.
Later, Ren Chong decisively sealed off the city, and the news from Wuding could not be spread out. The general then ordered him to send people to investigate again.
That day, Xiang Wenqiu from the South Camp returned from his exploration of the city and clearly said that the attack of the Wuding defenders was weak and the epidemic was undoubtedly raging...
Thinking of Xiang Wenqiu, Deputy General Chang suddenly shuddered.
He did not forget that the general's order to him was to kill all the explorers, but that night, bows and arrows and fires only left three hundred people.
Could it be... Could it be that the oversight occurred during that city exploration?
But the epidemic has clearly spread from the very beginning, and there is no solution in the world!
At this moment, Deputy General Chang was extremely scared.
He knew that given the general's temperament, even if his loyalty was unquestionable, he would definitely draw his sword and kill him on the spot for such a big mistake.
But he had followed the general for so many years, and if he asked himself honestly, what he feared more at this moment was that this would ruin the general's great cause.
Thinking of this, Deputy General Chang stared at the Wuding city gate, then made up his mind and opened his mouth to confess his dereliction of duty that night.
But suddenly, his whole body was shaken, and he shouted as if he had survived a disaster:
"General, it's gone! There are no more Yong troops behind us! Not 200,000!"
Mo Qiandai also saw that the open Wuding city gate was desolate and charred, and there were indeed no more Yong troops behind it.
From this it seems that there are only 40,000 troops hidden in Wuding City.
But where did these 40,000 troops come from? Could they be the survivors of the Wuding garrison?
But they look energetic, how could they look like they have been tortured by the epidemic?
Or was it that the 200,000-strong army was indeed wiped out, and these 40,000 people were secretly brought by Qiao Zhongguo when he rushed to the northern border?
But there is still the epidemic in the city. People were hidden in it and now they are released. Isn't this dragging down the whole world to perish together?
Mo Qiandai's face turned pale and his breathing became rapid.
The development of events was vaguely out of his control. He claimed to understand Qiao Zhongguo, but at this moment he could not figure out Qiao Zhongguo's plan.
The Northern Army's front line was in chaos under the attack of the Yong Army. At this time, 120,000 troops still had a great advantage over 70,000 troops. Mo Qiandai knew that he could not lose his composure any longer.
Thinking of this, Mo Qiandai shouted coldly: "Give the order quickly, and start the Crane Wing Formation!"
Deputy General Chang did not dare to delay and immediately ordered his men to wave the red battle flag high.
The captains of the left and right wings of the front line were in a state of panic. When they saw the two battle flags of the central army waving alternately, like a crane spreading its wings, they immediately found their backbone and issued orders.
"Raise the Crane Wing Formation!"
The left and right wings of the Northern Army moved!
They marched in an orderly manner on the battlefield, encircled the 70,000 Yong troops from both wings, and trapped them in a tight encirclement.
With the obvious numerical advantage, this formation was indeed effective immediately. The Yong army, which had just been killing people in all directions, had to shrink inward and switch from offense to defense.
When Deputy General Chang saw this, the fear and uneasiness that was surging in his heart circled around and finally slowly subsided.
Great! Great!
Next, we just need to make a concerted effort to completely wipe out the Yong army here!
"General, I will beat the drum to boost morale, conquer Wuding, and help you achieve your great cause!"
Mo Qiandai let out a long breath. He knew that delay would lead to unexpected events, so he nodded heavily and said, "Quick battle, quick decision!"
After getting the nod, Deputy General Chang immediately climbed onto the drum cart nearby, took the drumstick from the drummer, took a deep breath, and then
Boom——
Boom boom boom——
The drum beats were as violent as a torrent, bursting out from the drum surface, like a dense and wild rainstorm, instantly sweeping the entire venue!
The Northern Army soldiers felt their spirits lifted, their blood boiling, and shouts of killing burst out, deafening!
The smoke of war rose, swords and guns penetrated the flesh and blood. Since ancient times, men have been passionate and willing to prove their truth on the battlefield.
Even before the war, the Northern Army had doubts about the Northern Kingdom because of the rumors they had heard about Yu Liu, but when they heard the drum beats and their blood boiled, they still chose to fight for their country!
The shouts and cries of killing were overwhelming. The Northern Army was in high spirits and had large numbers. The Yong Army was defeated and continued to shrink its defense, remaining calm despite being frightened.
They are a group of soldiers who are not afraid of death. Behind them are Wuding and Beiding. They have no way to retreat, nor are they willing to retreat.
No matter how loud the voices rise, we will still stand as the backbone of our country and fight to the death!
"kill!"
The predecessors fell, and the successors rushed forward. War has always been cruel, and they were aware of this when they put on their military uniforms.
The Qiao family army rushed to the outermost edge.
They are all veterans who followed Qiao Zhongguo on the battlefield more than ten years ago. They have been through the gates of hell and witnessed the most glorious times.
At this moment, they stood in front of all the soldiers without hesitation, and shouted: "Go inside, you young brat!"
"Don't be afraid. I may die on the battlefield today, but next year I will be a beautiful woman on the battlefield. Hahaha!"
"Then how about I be reborn as a cow in my next life and give you a big shit?"
“Hahaha! Hahaha!”
A heroic and hearty laugh rang out, which could not even be drowned out by the deafening sound of drums.
The Qiao family army is like this. Just like their general, they are nonchalant in words but sharp with long swords in their hands.
No matter what kind of adversity they faced, they would always downplay it. At this moment, they had quietly used their tall bodies to build an iron wall for the new recruits behind them.
