Hearing this, Qin Feng was slightly dejected. No matter how powerful Wang Fei was, she was only in her teens. How could she know everything? Many generals might not be able to study it thoroughly even after spending decades. This time, the ones remaining by Wang Fei's side were all young generals. The only experienced Marquis Nan had been sent out by Wang Fei to carry out other missions. Also, in Qin Feng's view, even if Marquis Nan was here, he would not be able to defeat Jhennam Of Gojoseon. Ye Li rubbed her fingers thoughtfully and smiled faintly. "Since … technology and intelligence cannot solve the problem, then we can only … solve it with violence." Qin Feng stilled and did not understand Ye Li's meaning. He saw Ye Li slowly walk down the high platform and walk to Feng Zhiyao who was watching the battle from the city wall. Before Qin Feng could think, a bright red flame rose into the sky with a sharp howl. Then an earth-shattering sound of horse hooves sounded from the southwest. Like a black tornado, it swept through the entire battlefield. At the same time, the Mohist army that had been split up by the Xiling Army connected in an extremely short amount of time. They broke out from the enemy's belly and formed an even larger formation with their comrades around them. Like a sharp arrow, they drew a crack in the Xiling Army's enormous formation. The Black Cloud Cavalry that had just arrived did not remember to kill or leave. They moved back and forth on the battlefield and immediately tore the neat formation into pieces.
After the Xiling Army, where the middle army stood. The Xiling general looked at the sudden arrival of the Black Cloud Cavalry and his expression changed. "What kind of formation is this?!"
Zhennan Wang withdrew the smile on his face. He thoughtfully looked at the distant city wall and said, "This isn't a formation!" In front of absolute power, any formation was just empty talk. The Mohist army was slightly stronger than the Xiling Army. What they lacked was military strength and truly skilled generals. If they wanted to compete with the Mohist army, they were prepared to pay the price. At this moment, with the addition of the Black Cloud Cavalry, the outcome was hard to predict. The general beside him suggested, "Should we let the army at the back press forward and completely annihilate the Mo Army outside the city?" The South Protecting King shook his head and said, "It's too late. They are about to retreat."
As expected, the sound of retreating echoed from the walls of Hongzhou City. The gates of Hongzhou City were instantly opened. Under the cover of the Black Cloud Cavalry, the Mohist army that had just charged out of the Xiling Army's protection charged into the city. The Black Cloud Cavalry behind them also charged into the city. What greeted the pursuing West-Hill soldiers was a rain of arrows from the Mohist army guarding the city. Seeing this scene, the generals around Jhennam Of Gojoseon began to curse one after another. "The Eastern Chu people are truly despicable. They can't beat us, so they run!" Jhennam Of Gojoseon was not angry, but instead laughed and said, "If they can't beat us, the most important thing is to run. However … Ye Li's actions made I understand one thing. In this Hongzhou City … there really isn't a general who can take on a big role. With just one Feng Zhiyao, after a few more years of training, he might be able to take charge. Right now, he's too inexperienced. "The generals thought, wasn't it so? The two sides had equal forces, but the Eastern Chu people needed the help of the Black Cloud Cavalry to retreat into the city. If it wasn't because there was no one in the army, then what was?
"Mo Xiuyao is fighting against three allied forces at the same time. No matter how strong Mo Xiuyao is, he won't be able to do anything. I'm afraid that the Mohist army's generals have all followed Mo Xiuyao into the pass. "
"Isn't that so? Mo Xiuyao actually handed the northwest to a woman. It can be seen that the Mohist army really has no one! " While the generals were discussing, Jhennam Of Gojoseon turned his gaze back to the light green figure on the walls of Hongzhou City. These days, the Mohist army's successive defeats and today's victory made the generals of West-Hill look down on the Mohist army. However, as the commander, Jhennam Of Gojoseon didn't. Not only that, it made him pay more attention to the young Princess Consort of Dingguo. These days, it was true that they had won in a row, but they didn't get any real benefits in Hongzhou. Along the way, all the ripe grains in the northwest had already been harvested. Even the few that couldn't be harvested had been burned to the ground. These days, the Mo Family's army was said to be resisting, but it would be more accurate to say that they were obstructing them so that the people of Hongzhou could snatch the food. According to the information he received, Ye Li even sent the Mo Family's army to help the people snatch the food. This invisibly increased his need to capture Hongzhou as soon as possible. In another month, the northwest would truly enter a severe winter. At that time, many places would be snowed and roads would be blocked. Even if there was grain, it might not be able to be transported over. On the other hand, it was impossible for their rations and military supplies to last until next spring.
The closer they got to Hongzhou, the more Jhennam Of Gojoseon had a hunch that the Mohist army deliberately led them to Hongzhou. But he couldn't understand the Mohist army or Ye Li's idea. Behind Hongzhou was the flat land of Guannei. Judging from Ye Li's performance these days, it didn't seem like she had the strength to keep him out of Hongzhou City. The Mohist army didn't even have a master of strategy. In fact, Jhennam Of Gojoseon didn't understand. He always thought that he valued Ye Li enough, but when he thought that there was no independent general in the Mohist army, it was already a kind of contempt. He also didn't think that Ye Li's goal wasn't to keep the Xiling Army out of Hongzhou City, but … to wipe out all 200,000 Xiling Army in Hongzhou!
Looking at the green-clothed woman on the city gate tower who seemed to nod at him, Jhennam Of Gojoseon's heart suddenly skipped a beat. A strange sense of uneasiness instantly stunned his mind. But after repeatedly calculating, he still couldn't find the source of this uneasiness. After thinking for a while, Jhennam Of Gojoseon turned around and returned to the camp. "Quickly pass down the order. Order the 300,000 soldiers stationed at the border of Xiling to rush to Hongzhou as quickly as possible." The general following beside him was startled. He hesitated and said, "Prince, the speed of the army escorting the large amount of grain …" The soldiers stationed at the border were carrying enough grain to last the entire winter for the 400,000 soldiers. If they wanted to transport it all the way to Hongzhou, their speed naturally wouldn't be fast. Jhennam Of Gojoseon snorted softly and said, "It's fine as long as they can make it in time. If you are any slower, the army might have already arrived before you have taken Hongzhou City! "The generals following him couldn't help but blush and show their dissatisfaction. If they couldn't even beat a woman, they wouldn't have the face to return to Xiling. "Within five days, we will definitely take Hongzhou!"
"I will wait and see."
In Hongzhou City, Feng Zhiyao looked at Ye Li with a face full of sweat and said with a smile, "If Wang Fei hadn't made preparations today, the Mohist army that went out of the city to fight probably wouldn't have made it back. I am still too lacking … "Ye Li looked at him with a smile and said," Even though you have been on the battlefield since you were young, you haven't fought in many years. In terms of experience, compared to Jhennam Of Gojoseon, who has been on the battlefield for half his life, you are naturally lacking. Today's lesson has taught us that it is best not to compare our weaknesses with other people's strengths. "Feng Zhiyao helplessly spread out his hands and said," In a face-to-face battle, the best thing to do is to arrange troops and formations. If we directly let the soldiers charge in groups, we will die even worse. But Wang Fei is right. We will only be at a disadvantage if we fight like this. If the two armies are equal in strength, what is tested is formations. "If it was back in the south, Mo Jingli's motley crew, who would care about formations? They could just charge in and scare those shrimp soldiers to death.
