This was an expected battle, but I didn't expect that the enemy would suddenly appear in such a way.
Fortunately, it was discovered in time, otherwise even if the enemy's attack was blocked, our own casualties would be very heavy.
The soldiers were still cleaning up the battlefield, and Hou Junji rewarded the soldier who discovered the enemy's situation.
Bai Song took Xiaoqing back. He was more concerned about whether the three ladies in the camp were frightened.
Walking to the door of the camp, Xiaoqing suddenly stopped.
Bai Song turned around and glanced at the other party: "What's wrong with you?"
"Why... why did you stop me from destroying the enemy's divine cannon?"
"Aren't you injured? Are you in danger if I ask you to destroy the Shenwu Cannon at this time?"
"Are you worried that I'm in danger?" Xiao Qing's eyes flickered, she glanced at Bai Song, and then quickly lowered her head.
"Don't think too much? Although you have committed a heinous crime, you are still mine. I will not let you die in vain."
"Thank you...Thank you Master."
I don’t know why, but it was a very ordinary thing, but it moved infinitely in Xiaoqing’s heart.
My heart felt warm and I couldn't control my emotions.
"Take good care of yourself, I still need your Grandmaster combat power."
Bai Song persuaded again and entered the camp first.
Xiaoqing was in a daze, but because of the two words of comfort from her master, she actually felt a sense of stability and satisfaction in her heart.
"How can love Gu be so powerful?"
Xiao Qing no longer had the slightest doubt that she had used poison all her life, but in the end she was poisoned by the most deadly love poison in the world, and it was a poison that could not be resolved.
Xiaoqing frowned and sat at the door of the camp again.
At first, she could not heal her wounds with peace of mind, but after Bai Song's comfort, her heart felt extremely stable. She entered the cultivation state in an instant, and the true energy flow in her body was smooth without any obstruction.
In the camp, Shu Wang and Xiang Nan both came to greet him.
"Husband."
"Ms. sir!"
"Okay, it's just a small fight, don't worry about it, I don't have anything to do now."
Bai Song hugged Liu'er from side to side and looked at Liu'er relaxedly.
Liu'er had already expressed his concern in his heart. This feeling of understanding was so beautiful that there was always a space in Bai Song's heart for this Miao girl.
A few minutes after Bai Song returned to the camp, the latest situation came from outside.
"General, the enemy troops did not leave, but were stationed below us. It seems they want to trap us in the mountains."
After hearing the news, Bai Song hurried outside the camp.
Xiao Qing stood up and wanted to follow Bai Song.
Bai Song raised his hand: "You rest first, I'll go and come back."
At this time, Hou Junji had also come over, and his expression looked very nervous.
"General, the situation is more serious than we imagined. The enemy troops have gathered at the foot of the mountain and set up camp in an arc to seal us in the mine."
"Let's go check the situation first."
A few minutes later, Bai Song and Hou Junji arrived at the battlefield that had just been bombarded by Shenwu artillery.
Standing here, you can clearly see that there are already densely packed soldiers setting up camp at the foot of the mountain. With just a glance, you can see at least seven military camps being deployed. This formation is so large that it seems to be far more than 20,000 or 30,000 people.
The situation was more severe than imagined. Bai Song had actually expected this scene.
The mine they were in was indeed easy to hold on to, but at the same time they also entered a urn.
If the enemy army only defends but does not attack, one day they will be cut off from food and grass.
By then, without the enemy being dispatched, their team of eight thousand people would starve to death.
There are also enemies stationed at the foot of the mountain, and the rangers released by our own side cannot convey the message back. At this time, we are truly a lone army.
"General, what are we going to do now? Should we take the initiative, or should we hold on?"
"Hold on."
Bai Song is simple and clear.
"Hold? If the enemy completes their defense, it will be difficult for us to break through in the future."
"Don't forget the Shenwu cannon." Bai Song explained calmly, scanning the military camp at the foot of the mountain, and said slowly, "Now is the age of firearms. Don't limit your thinking to fighting with swords and guns. Their defenses can block the general army, but with The army of the Shenwu Cannon will not be affected. When we are really desperate, we can use the Shenwu Cannon to open a way and create a gap, but our casualties will be heavier at that time."
"It's true that we have a divine cannon, but the opponent also has a divine cannon."
Bai Song smiled and pointed at his feet and down the mountain: "We stand on a high place and they guard at the bottom of the mountain. Our Shenwu cannon can hit their camp, but their Shenwu cannon can't hit us."
Hou Junji slapped his forehead and said to himself that he didn't even think of such a simple thing.
After all, they are ancient people, and they have subconsciously made habitual guesses about ancient wars, and rarely consider the impact of divine cannons on contemporary wars.
The situation in the Bai Song Dynasty was different. In modern thinking, it is no longer important to organize troops in battles. What is important is how the Shenwu cannons perform.
With the Shenwu cannon vibrating high up, even if the bottom was surrounded by water, he would not be in any panic.
At least when it comes to a last-ditch battle, he has the ability to break out of the siege.
"We still don't know what the enemy's plan is. If we take the initiative to attack, we will lose the advantage of divine artillery and terrain, and use weak troops to fight against the enemy's strong troops, not to mention they still have a numerical advantage. Take the initiative now It’s obviously not possible to attack.”
Hou Junji thought for a while, agreed, and asked in a low voice: "Then when should we take action?"
"How long can our military rations last?"
Speaking of this, Hou Junji had a headache: "There is only one week's rations. If you save food, it can last for half a month. Now there are enemies stationed below, and our military rations cannot be replenished. This is very difficult. General, do you want to do it now?" Order to reduce food supply?"
"It's not necessary. You can put grain as you like every day. I think the place is willing to surround the mountain like this, probably because we don't have enough grain. Grain is our disadvantage, but it may also become our advantage."
"How to say?"
"Didn't General Hou say that there is a path from here to the Himalayas?"
"Um."
"Then let's send people up now. If possible, we might be able to find some Tibetans to provide us with some military rations."
"Ah?" Hou Junji felt that Bai Song's words were a bit whimsical, and he was embarrassed to speak directly, so he could only say euphemistically, "Tibetans in Tubo mostly make a living as nomads. Similar to Turks, there are few cities, especially on this plateau. You can't see anyone at the edge. Even if you meet someone, you won't be able to grab much food, right?"
"We have to give it a try, right? Maybe we will be lucky and we will actually meet it?"
"Since the general said so, the general will order some people to go and take a look."
"There's no need to instruct others, I just go there myself."
