Chapter 1166

Under the dim light, the entire commander's tent was covered with gloomy whiteness. This was the first joint meeting since the war began. Although the main commanders of the coalition forces had touched each other before the war, an optimistic atmosphere spread in the mood at that time. Although the people of the Western Xinjiang had deployed strong power in Yunzhong Prefecture, the Yunzhong Prefecture, which was not strong at five times his strong military strength, would definitely turn into powder. According to Chu Taifeng's own estimate, Yunzhong Prefecture City should crawl at his feet within three days. He was even thinking about how to prevent the Duodu and the Puer people from being too poisoned and ravaged in this city.

But now it seems that I was as optimistic as everyone else at the beginning, and was almost arrogant. The performance of the Western Xinjiang Army in this battle was perfect. Although its first legion had attacked the city several times, it was driven down without exception. The power that the Western Xinjiang Army burst out at the last critical moment did not insult them at all.

The war on the third day had come to an end. Compared with the battle on the second day, the tragic situation on the third day was not inferior. Perhaps the Puer people also realized that they could not make a breakthrough from Ximen. They also sent their three most elite infantry soldiers to the East Gate to join Chu Taifeng's attack sequence as agreed. During the third day of the attack, Chu Taifeng could also say that he had devoted all his strength to push the three 10,000 teams of the Puer people and the Second Division of the Second Legion to the front line. The Second Third Division, which had just had time to rest for a day, joined the combat sequence again as a reserve team.

A commander of the Puer people attended the battle personally to observe the performance of the Puer soldiers after receiving various advanced attack weapons. It should be said that the performance of the three elite 10,000 teams of the Puer people is still remarkable. Although they cannot keep up with the performance of several divisions of the First Legion, in the words of the Puer people's viewing representatives, the performance of the Tanghe people and the Xijiang people in this battle "completely subverted his past impression of the combat effectiveness of the Tanghe army."

The Puer people performed not badly, especially with the support of the powerful and large-scale siege weapon such as the city rusher, they lined up in an orderly manner to launch a charge. However, they rushed to the city of Yunzhongfu countless times, and then retreated countless times. They had done their best, but the performance of the Western Xinjiang soldiers was even better, and they almost did not give the Puer people any chance of success. Every charge they were like kicking to an iron wall, unable to shake it, and were forced to be squeezed and retreated step by step by step by step by step, and finally disappeared under the city wall.

The siege tower is not very suitable for them. The Puer army, which focuses on overall strength, is not suitable for such equipment that requires more individual skills. Often, the siege tower has just been built on the city wall, and the Puer soldiers only have time to fight and struggle on the iron bridge for a while, and even the city walls are rarely controlled. Even for a short period of time, they will fall into the perfect cooperation between the Western Xinjiang sniper team and the sniper team.

The officers watching the battle of the Puer also believed that their soldiers had fully demonstrated their strength and had done their best. However, the tenacity and toughness of the Western Xinjiang people were so terrifying that they could not explain why they could never make a breakthrough several times that of the other party. In the end, the Puer generals could only explain it with words like "the inhuman treatment that Western Xinjiang soldiers may encounter after being dying from the city slope and burst out under such despair."

Zhu Wenkui also wanted to prove himself and the Second Legion through this battle. The performance of Gao Qiushan's Fifth Division was obviously not satisfied with Chu Taifeng, which would damage the overall image of the Second Legion. Zhu Wenkui hoped to impress the other party with the performance of the Second Division in today's war, but he still did not expect to encounter such a painful and unreliable experience.

When fireballs were thrown by a stone cart to within two hundred meters of the city wall, Zhu Wenkui realized that the situation was not right. The things burned on the ground were obviously just poured and sprinkled on it. The ground did not ignite the fire as everyone imagined, but it did burn. However, the fire was not big, but a large amount of thick smoke was generated. The rolling smoke once spread across the battlefield. Could this be the new tactic adopted by the Western Xinjiang Army, hoping to use this thing to block the view so that they could take the opportunity to launch an attack? No, it was impossible. Zhu Wenkui did not believe that the generals of the Western Xinjiang Army would be so mentally retarded. But how effective could this thick smoke play? Do you just want to delay the pace of your own attack?

Zhu Wenkui soon discovered that in fact he was the real mentally retarded. The northwest wind from the northwest caused these seemingly thick smoke to spread and spread, quickly spreading throughout the battlefield area. What made Zhu Wenkui panic was that this thick smoke seemed not the thick smoke produced by the burning of ordinary plants. The stench and strong irritating smoke quickly made the soldiers of his division who were advancing steadily, and their eyes were red and swollen and unable to open.

The troops were suffocated and the stomach and intestines were spasms. Large areas of soldiers fell down like cut wheat, spreading rapidly to the entire battlefield like a plague. The Puer people who launched the offensive in advance had taken some cheaper positions. Their vanguard troops had at least had a few battles with the Western Xinjiang Army, but Zhu Wenkui's division was used by Chu Taifeng in the third wave of offensives, but his luck was so contrary that they caught up with the new poison gas of the Western Xinjiang Army.

The Second Division of the Second Legion and a 10,000-person team of Puer encountered this real disaster on the spot. The smoke quickly caused more than 30,000 soldiers who were preparing to launch the attack to lose most of their combat effectiveness. The soldiers vomited and blinded. Not to mention launching an attack, it was a good performance to not collapse on the spot. Fortunately, Chu Taifeng was still responsive and promptly ordered the subsequent 23rd Division of the First Legion to take off his outer robe and soaked in water to cover his head and responded. This made the Western Xinjiang cavalry, who took advantage of the situation, not achieving the purpose of launching a counterattack. However, even so, the Second Division of the Second Legion and the 10,000-person team of Puer who had not yet taken the battle, were caused considerable losses by the storm of the Western Xinjiang cavalry. The damage caused by this poisonous gas could not be recovered in one or two days. Many soldiers were still blind until the evening, which greatly damaged the morale of the Northern Army.

But these are not enough to make Chu Taifeng restless. The local tactical failure cannot change the final result of the battle. Although the Western Xinjiang Army can use this type of poison gas to achieve temporary benefits, it also relies on the changes in the weather to borrow wind. Once these natural conditions no longer exist, their good days will mean that they have come to an end. What troubles him is the information he has obtained. More than 100,000 cavalrymen from the four Ranger regiments of Western Xinjiang have passed through the Northwest County and entered the territory of the Gerok, and they are expected to enter Yulin soon, which means that they will not be too far from Yunzhong. Chu Taifeng is not against Western Xinjiang.

The nomadic cavalry was not mentally prepared for the return of the enemy cavalry, but he did not expect that the speed of the enemy cavalry would return so quickly, and they almost ran wildly without any effort. Although the patience shown by the nomadic cavalry while wandering around the grassland was quite amazing, this time it was different. It was nearly four thousand miles away, and it took more than ten days to rush back. This was simply unimaginable. You must know that the marching of this brigade of cavalry troops was not like the flying cavalry relay that conveyed the post book. Both soldiers and war horses would bear a considerable physical exhaustion. The desperate marching would only completely collapse the troops.

The severe reality forced Chu Taifeng to convene the commanders of Duoton and the Puer people to convene the first joint meeting since the war started. Once the nomadic cavalry in Western Xinjiang rushed into the clouds, the situation of the coalition will become extremely unfavorable. More than 100,000 rangers will cause the coalition to fall into endless stalking and raiding wars. Thinking about the more than 100,000 rangers who have gone without a trace played this kind of hide-and-seek war of attrition with their own army, Chu Taifeng felt a headache, and more importantly,

Time is not on my side. If I had enough time, I would not be afraid of the harassment of more than 100,000 Rangers. However, the Western Xinjiang Army invested heavily in the southern peninsula area, which obviously wanted to completely solve the problems of the Maqi Khan. Once the Maqi Khan could not cause trouble for Li Wufeng, it would be almost impossible for those three legions to be placed on the peninsula. Two legions would definitely be rushing north. At that time, with the First Legion in the Western Xinjiang, which had already gained an absolute advantage in the Five Lakes, Chu Taifeng would not dare to think about it anymore.

"Everyone, I have informed you of the information we have obtained just now. I believe you can also understand the threat behind this. Li Wufeng's 120,000 rangers are flying for the death toll. The purpose is to save the crisis in Yunzhong Prefecture. Now that the northwest county has passed, it has entered the territory of Gerok. It is estimated that at most two days will be passed through Gerok and enter Yulin. In other words, we have three days left for more than two days. I have sent a large number of scouts to reconnaissance along the line to grasp the speed and movements of these Rangers.
