Chapter 1055: Anxiety

An officer from the Southern Army Alliance finally climbed up the Guangshui city wall, holding a red cherry spear, majestic, swept left and right to block, and stabbed up and down. Several Tang soldiers who rushed up were either photographed by him or shot him. Behind him, someone followed him one after another. Seeing that this place was about to become a breakthrough, a huge figure suddenly appeared in front of him.

The gun that had just been swept out was not retracted. The officer nailed his feet firmly on the pallet. With a loud shout, the spear drew an arc in the air, and smashed it from top to bottom, as a stick.

The visitor held a knife in both hands and shouted loudly, and it turned out to be a flirting with his backhand.

Listening to the sound, it turned out to be a woman.

The swords and guns collided with each other, and a muffled sound, the spear was raised high again, but this time it was not the officer who took the initiative to rise, but was smashed back.

What a lot of strength!

Before the officer could react next, the huge figure had completely enveloped his figure, and the other party actually collided.

The officer was shocked.

He could only be shocked.

The two collided heavily, and the armor leaves collided. With a bang, the Southern Army officer with good martial arts flew backwards like a kite with a broken string, and then fell straight, and his long scream came from the air.

Ge Cai stood firmly in front of the wall.

Two spears on the left and right rushed towards her. On one side, they spread their arms, held the two spears under their ribs, exhaled, grabbed the spear pole with both hands, and lifted them up. The two soldiers who had just climbed up were immediately picked up by her and hung them on the spear. As Ge Cai stretched out his arms, the two morale, along with their spears, were thrown out from a distance.

Ge Cai, who looked very fat but was actually unrealistic, held her big knife, chopped, smashed, or simply collided, and cleaned up the enemy in a blink of an eye.

Thunderous cheers came from the city walls.

"General Ge is mighty!"

Ge Cai laughed and slashed the last Nanjun soldier on the city wall into two halves.

With such power, even Ren Dagou and Ren Xiaonian, who was commanding the battle on the city tower, was amazed. With this skill, even if he went up by himself, he would probably not be able to stop a few moves.

It is not a loss to be strong, but in the face of absolute power, any skill is just a joke.

Looking at the nameless hill not far away, Ren Xiaonian secretly sympathized with Liu Yuan in his heart.

Liu Yuanzhen is a strange person. A woman like Ge Cai is really not something that ordinary people can enjoy. I definitely respect Xie Bumin. Such a woman is good to be a comrade-in-arms, but she should forget it!

The battle on the hill was also fierce.

Xu Yong, with red eyes, directed his soldiers to attack the Tang army's positions one by one. On the hillside, among the rocks, corpses piled up like mountains. The Tang army's crossbowmen had been slowly pressed into a straight line, and no longer had the previous sense of layering, which made the Southern Army's attack more smooth.

Liu Yuan had to organize a surprise attack team and launched counterattacks many times.

This time, even though he used the white phosphorus bomb again, after the first use of such a weapon made people panic, he never played the same effect on a battlefield like today.

Yesterday, it was because the five hundred armored warriors were destroyed, which made people frightened.

Today, dead bodies gathered like mountains, killing both sides with red eyes, and they didn't care about how people died. Their left and right were just dead. And with yesterday's experience, the Southern Army also had some ways to deal with it.

Once someone is contaminated with phosphorus fire, he will immediately take off his armor. His body is contaminated with phosphorus fire and he will immediately peel off his flesh and blood. As long as he moves quickly, he can still save his life. If it really doesn't work, his companions will use a spear and a feather arrow to end his pain, so as not to get burned and run around and get infected with others.

After a day of fierce battle, both sides were exhausted. Even a mighty man like Ge Cai was sitting on the city wall and gasping for breath.

The Guangshui City Tower was burned to a point of collapse, and the city wall was covered with scars. The medical soldiers searched and picked up the city wall in silence. Whenever they found a wounded soldier who was still breathing, they would cheer.

The Wuming Hill now accounts for half of the enemy and us. Although Liu Xinda has already withdrawn his troops, Lu Yong refused to give up the hillside that has occupied half. He did not want to attack again, but he still had to face the enemy's order to shoot the crossbow in the morning. Without suitable materials for fortifications, the stones cannot be moved, and it is too difficult to dig the soil, and there is not much soil on the mountain. Xu Yong simply ordered that the bodies of the dead of the battle act as a cover, and layers of corpses were built up to separate the enemy and us.

On the nameless hill, the distance between the two enemies is only a hundred steps away.

"We should attack overnight!" Sitting in the central army's tent, Xu Yong said fiercely: "Why should we retreat? We are tired, the enemy is even more tired. We can fight on the rotation, but they do not have the staff to fight on the rotation."

In the big tent, many generals who had just come down from the front line looked at Liu Xinda. To be honest, they also held the same view. The Tang army was indeed brave, but they were not weak either. If they continued to attack, they might be able to make a breakthrough.

Liu Xinda looked at everyone and said, "I just received the news that Li Gan led 10,000 Tang troops and had set out from Xinyang to support Guangshui. The banner of Shi Zhuang, the general of the Right Guard of the Northern Tang Dynasty, has appeared in Xinyang. Do you know what this means?"

When everyone heard Liu Xinda's words, they were slightly stunned and stopped talking.

"With the Tang army's strength, Li Gan can reach Guangshui in at most two days. If we do everything here to fight Ren Xiaonian to the death, two days later, Li Gan comes, what can we fight with him? Can a tired army still deal with the opponent? Tell me about it, two days, are you sure to take Guangshui in Guangshui!"

Everyone was silent for a moment.

Everyone also understood this battle today. The Tang army in front of them is definitely a powerful army with a hundred battles. They are experienced and Guangshui City echoes the nameless highlands outside the city. In two days, they were really not sure to take it down.

"I have urgently asked General Xiangzhen for help." Liu Xinda closed his eyes and said, "At the same time, he also sent a letter of help to Ding Taiyi from Hunan. Now, we need reinforcements."

"General Xiang Zhen will definitely send reinforcements, but Dan Ting Taiyi is afraid he won't be so happy!" Xu Yong said.

Liu Xinda nodded. This is the disadvantage of the Southern Army Alliance. Although everyone is in the same camp, everyone still has their own interests. Hunan Observer Ding Taiyi wanted to take down Yueyang and completely control the fertile areas around Dongting Lake. He wanted him to send his army to Guangshui to fight the Tang army, but he was afraid he would give many refusals. Who would be willing to pull teeth for others?

However, the Northern Tang army formed a unit from top to bottom. Under the military orders, no army of all walks of life dared not to follow. There was no such scene where Liu Xinda himself could not confirm how many reinforcements would arrive.

In other words, the Tang army could formulate their own strategies and tactics with a clear understanding of the situation, and they could only rely on guessing. When making plans, they had to consider many factors outside the battlefield, which led to a loss of three points.

"Tomorrow, Xu Yong will continue to attack the nameless highland. If you can take this place, it will be the best!" Liu Xinda said: "Fu Xiaotian, you will lead 10,000 troops to enter Xianren Ridge, where to set up a village, remember, you only have at most two days."

Xu Yong and Fu Xiaotian stood up at the same time, clasped their fists to take the order.

"Xun Qi, you lead your cavalry to enter Gongzhuling and echo Fu Xiaotian. You can decide for yourself when fighting planes!" Liu Xinda looked at his cavalry general again, "If you have the chance, fight, if you don't have the chance, find a way to restrain and cover Fu Xiaotian."

"Shengbao, you bring five thousand soldiers to Yanzihe to watch over the right wing for Fu Xiaotian and prevent the Northern Tang army from crossing the river and hiding his rear."

"As for the order!" Two more generals stood up to receive the order.

"Go to everyone." Liu Xinda waved his hand, his eyes full of worry.

He had roughly guessed the meaning of the Northern Tang army.

Shi Zhuang came too fast, faster than everyone in the Confederate expected.

If he was the one who took the initiative, he would immediately lead his troops back to Ezhou. Not to mention Guangshui, he would not want even Yingcheng and Anlu. Unfortunately, he must cooperate with the entire alliance to complete the major strategic concept.

The overall strategic concept is good. It surrounds Jingnan, takes over Jingnan, and connects Yizhou and other places with the entire Southern Alliance to form an integral part. At the same time, it can also ensure that these observations in Jiangxi and Hunan will not be half-hearted and twitch to the Qin and Chu.

The Northern Tang army meant that it was probably to fight a decisive battle with them in Guangshui. The goal was to be himself and Xiang Zhen.

As for the reinforcements from Hunan, will they come?

If it comes, your side will have more chances of winning.

If you don't come, it's really hard to say.

It was based on this judgment that the upper class of the Northern Tang army made this decision when Chang'an was not yet firmly established. When Shi Zhuang's Right Wei Guard set out, Liu Chenglin's Right Xiao Guard and Li Mi's Right Qianniu Guard were also forcing towards Huainan and other places.

Under such a situation, protecting Eyue will inevitably become the only choice of the Guangzhou court. It is possible to give up Huainan, which has been taken over for this purpose.

Compared with Huainan, Eyue is undoubtedly more important in its current military, political and geographical location.

When fighting in Eyue, the Tang army did not seem to have any advantage in the land forces, and even fell at a disadvantage, but don’t forget that the waterway is completely controlled by the Tang army.

This makes the Tang army, which is at a disadvantage, take the initiative in tactics and choose any location they want to launch an attack. For the Southern Alliance, the early stages of the war can only be passive defense and then wait for an opportunity to act.

Without a navy, the biggest problem in the Confederate now.
