The next morning, Cheng Zhichuan's army indeed launched a fierce attack on the outside. Of course, Cheng Zhichuan did not invest too much.
At the beginning, a hundred thousand troops were invested to charge and rushed in one direction.
Kong Linghu also responded quickly.
Kong Linghu still had an army of 1.8 million. After all, Xiao Yuanjing led an army of 600,000 to intercept the food road.
This one-to-one and one-million-strong army completely blocked the entire Niujiao Town city and surrounded a large circle. In fact, there were not many troops in every place.
However, after the 100,000 troops under Cheng Zhichuan appeared, the surrounding troops quickly surrounded the 100,000 troops who broke through and surrounded them and encircled them.
The 100,000 army naturally suffered heavy losses, but the army under Kong Linghu was not much better.
After all, the soldiers of Zhou were indeed more elite and powerful than the army under Kong Linghu.
The 100,000 army was besieged by a total of 200,000 troops, and more than half of them were injured, but they also killed and 70,000 people, and finally returned to Niujiao Town.
After the 100,000 army returned, not long after, another 100,000 army came out.
Kong Linghu sat in the camp tent with a calm face. At this time, Lin Fan, Liu Boqing and Nan Zhanxiong had already left.
After all, the rest must be left to Kong Linghu himself.
"This guy Cheng Zhichuan." Kong Linghu narrowed his eyes: "It doesn't seem like he wants to break through at all, but it's more like letting his subordinates come out to die. Moreover, between me and him, in terms of war losses, I will always be the one who suffers even more."
Speaking of this, Kong Linghu seemed to have figured it out and said, "This guy is a tough guy. He is asking his subordinates to run out to die, wanting to free up more food, and at the same time he can rely on an army more elite than me to exchange for more lives."
"If I really want to continue like this, I'm afraid he will be wiped out by him in less than a month."
Kong Linghu narrowed his eyes and continued like this. At that time, the soldiers on his side might be wiped out.
Thinking of this, Kong Linghu's heart sank even more. He couldn't let that guy Cheng Zhichuan attack like this unscrupulously.
But the problem comes again.
It is their business to attack, so how can he stop it?
Thinking of this, Kong Linghu quickly came up with a solution, his eyes lit up slightly, and he hurriedly wrote a letter and sent it to Lin Fan.
At this moment, there was a deep feeling of sadness in Niujiao Town.
Today, we broke through four times and failed four times. Together, the total number of soldiers who died in battle has exceeded 200,000!
These are two hundred thousand soldiers!
There was sadness all over the top and bottom.
Morale was also quite sluggish.
"General Cheng, hey, many soldiers are depressed because of the frontline battle situation, and many people can't even eat." A deputy general sighed and said to Cheng Zhichuan.
Cheng Zhichuan's eyes lit up and laughed: "Victory and defeat are common in military affairs. Isn't there more than 200,000 deaths on the other side? And initially, I'm afraid there will be more casualties than us. You all know the current situation. If we continue like this, our entire army may not be able to leave here properly."
Cheng Zhichuan patted the deputy general's shoulder and said, "The situation is like this now, and my heart is also shattered."
The deputy general looked at Cheng Zhichuan's appearance and thought to himself, why do you feel that the general is not very sad?
Cheng Zhichuan couldn't help but add: "Remember, the people below don't want to eat, so they keep the food. You can continue eating the next meal, so you can't waste it."
Enjoy joy in suffering.
This is also Cheng Zhichuan’s best mental journey at this moment.
The situation is already like this, it is difficult to change, and only one can change is one's own mentality.
Cheng Zhichuan lay on the bed, thinking of various plans to lead the entire army to break through.
Gradually falling asleep.
The next morning, Cheng Zhichuan woke up. After he had breakfast, he found several deputy generals and said, "Are the people below ready? Send another 100,000 troops to prepare for the attack!"
These deputy generals hesitated and dodged their eyes, as if they didn't want to face Cheng Zhichuan's face without eyes.
Cheng Zhichuan also felt something was wrong with these people at this moment, and said, "What's wrong? I'll ask you to hurry up and prepare to continue the attack."
At this time, an adjutant spoke first and said stutteringly: "Then, General Cheng, many soldiers below, are in a state of emotion. No, they are unwilling to go out for battle again."
"What?" Cheng Zhichuan's face changed slightly, and then his face turned cold: "Then why are you still stunned here? Are there no military laws in our army? These people violated orders and were unwilling to fight. According to the rules, they would be killed!"
Listening to Cheng Zhichuan's words, the deputy general hurriedly explained: "General, you don't know. In the early morning of this year, rumors spread in the army, saying that the general kept sending troops out to fight Kong Linghu's army because the army's food reserves are now insufficient. He deliberately asked the people below to die in order to reduce the consumption of food and consume the troops under Kong Linghu."
"It can achieve the effect of killing two birds with one stone."
The deputy general hurriedly said, "I personally think the general's method is good, but the soldiers below are difficult to understand..."
Of course he felt that the method was good, and the soldiers certainly couldn't understand it.
After all, it was not him who rushed forward to die, but the soldiers from the lowest level rushed on the front line.
Cheng Zhichuan kicked him in the ass and scolded: "Nonsense! What does this method mean to me be good? Did I ask my soldiers to die on purpose?"
Cheng Zhichuan was indeed furious at this moment. Who told the truth?
How did he pass on his thoughts? Bastard!
Cheng Zhichuan clenched his fists slightly and said in a deep voice: "Catch the people who spread such rumors in the army and dismember the five horses!"
The adjutant said: "The last general has already investigated it as soon as possible, but he has not yet gained anything. After all, the number of soldiers in our army is too large, and it is difficult to figure out who is spreading it for a while."
"The number of soldiers is too large? Is this an excuse, is it a reason?" Cheng Zhichuan suddenly kicked him in the ass and cursed: "Do you still have to teach you how to do this kind of thing?"
"Kill the chicken to scare the monkeys!" Cheng Zhichuan said in a deep voice: "Catch a few of the most terrifying people and come out to kill them, and treat them as typical."
