In the next few days, Blade Fire City was attacked by enemies.
But for Song Ziyu, this kind of attack is equivalent to scratching the surface.
Every day, the enemy would come in large numbers and charge toward Blade Fire City, leaving behind one or two hundred corpses before retreating in despair.
This kind of suicidal approach to death is like clocking in to work every day and fishing for fish. It is completely meaningless.
The continuous killings for many days made the battlefield boring. Song Ziyu even suspected that the other side was running out of food and grass, and deliberately sent some casualties to reduce the supply pressure on his own side.
However, the shootings in recent days have still had a bad effect on the team, that is, the army's arrogance is getting stronger day by day!
This situation is inevitable!
If a person wins every day when gambling, he is already very close to losing.
The saddest thing is that people who have experienced the whole process personally will not discover this problem. By the time they fall into it, it is already too late...
Now Song Ziyu is walking in this process, and going further and further.
Finally, long-term laissez-faire and arrogance gave rise to arrogance and underestimation of the enemy.
…
The fighting these days has made Song Ziyu very uncomfortable.
??????????????? Song Ziyu was mentally prepared for this war, but things went beyond his expectations!
It's not that the enemy is too powerful, it's that the opponent is simply too weak.
I thought it was Guan Gong fighting Qin Qiong, but I didn't expect it to be King Kong fighting Lolita.
This made Song Ziyu very unhappy.
Seeing his subordinates coming up with their heads to claim credit every day, Song Ziyu felt that it was necessary to take the initiative.
That's right!
Take the initiative!
Since the enemy is like this, there is no need to waste time with them in Blade Fire City.
So Song Ziyu held a strategic meeting to listen to everyone's opinions.
At this time, the trend of arrogance and underestimation of the enemy had permeated the army. When they heard Song Ziyu's suggestion to take the initiative, most of the generals agreed, but only a few remained silent.
The only officer who had recently surrendered expressed his objection, and his objection was also very strange. He heard that the person leading the army on the opposite side was Zhou Shicheng of Guanglan City, so the surrendered officer showed vigilance.
"Zhou Shicheng is quite famous in Dongxu and is a famous warrior."
The officer said: "He is not from a high-blooded family, but he can stand out among the dignitaries and become the lord of Guanglan City... The reason why Dongxu recruited soldiers and horses from the four towns for him to command this time is entirely because of his military merits It’s due to accumulation. In other words, this man is a famous general!”
Before the officer finished speaking, the others sneered: "What kind of bullshit famous general? There are a bunch of chickens and dogs on the opposite side. What kind of famous general is this?"
"If he is a famous general, then I will be the God of War!"
Zhang Dahu picked his teeth and sneered.
"that is!"
"To increase the ambition of others is to destroy one's own prestige."
"I'm afraid you're a coward."
"Ha ha ha ha!"
"A piece of trash."
An officer who was a Longshan soldier stood up and said, "I'm not afraid to tell you, if you give me a thousand men, I can penetrate the other side. If you give me three thousand men, I can attack Dongxu!"
Another officer who was not good at speaking hurriedly nodded and said, "Me too."
All the generals under his command sneered and ridiculed this newly surrendered officer, and they were so embarrassed by this man.
Sensing that something was wrong with the atmosphere, Song Ziyu waved his hand to stop the meaningless dispute.
"Okay, now that the enemy is facing us, don't fight internally. This is a very stupid thing." Song Ziyu stopped everyone in a very stern tone: "We are all our own people, so we must speak in a measured way. If anyone criticizes our own people again like this, I will Let’s operate on this person first.”
Seeing Song Ziyu's anger, everyone stopped mocking the surrendered officer.
But no matter what, Song Ziyu has lost the channel and mentality to listen to objections, and has embarked on a path of insistence.
…
On this day, the enemy troops attacked again, and there was another constant confrontation, and then they were quickly defeated as usual, but this time Song Ziyu had no intention of letting this broken army escape.
】
The army covered up the enemy and moved out in three groups!
One of the three armies directly followed the defeated troops forward, while the other two began to make detours and intersperses with a climax of tactical literacy.
Soon, the camp where the defeated troops were located was overtaken by the pursuers led by Song Ziyu himself!
The troops in this camp were obviously well prepared, and they had put in a lot of effort into digging trenches and building fortifications.
A fierce and earth-shattering battle broke out between the two sides.
Song Ziyu can almost conclude that the enemy's main force is in this camp!
Because the enemy's resistance has completely reached the level of strength that can compete with the army he leads!
The frontal battle was very fierce. The grassroots officers headed by the backbone of Longshan took the lead and led more than 2,000 people to storm the enemy camp. Dozens of teams were organized to cooperate with various tactics. , all the advanced weapons purchased by Longshan Arsenal and the Northern Steel Alliance were used, and the trenches and defense lines in front of the enemy camp were plowed as if they were being plowed.
But even so!
The frontal offensive still cannot make any progress!
Because the enemy's resistance is too tenacious.
With the first line of defense completely destroyed, the defenders in the enemy camp still retreated to the second line of defense in an orderly manner... The army led by Song Ziyu was still unable to attack after paying more than 200 casualties. Enter the enemy camp.
Fortunately, the stalemate did not last long, and the two teams that had outflanked the enemy finally arrived on the battlefield!
The three parties attacked from the front and back, and finally broke the defensive array of the enemy camp.
The commando led by Tang Jian broke into the side of the enemy camp from the slope, like killing a dragon, directly dividing the enemy troops defending in the enemy camp into two from the front line.
After this wave of attacks, the enemy camp's defense finally collapsed!
Kill him while he's sick!
At this time, in Song Ziyu's view, although the enemy's resistance was still tenacious, it no longer had much structure, which proved that the local area had lost its unified command.
Song Ziyu ordered a general offensive at all costs!
After the three armies desperately attacked, the enemy's camp on the front line of Blade Fire City was finally captured.
But the army did not stop there!
A large number of defeated troops took advantage of the chaos to break out and were fleeing northwest.
Song Ziyu knew that he could never let the tiger go back to the mountain, so he ordered his subordinates to assemble quickly, and then pursued the enemy in the direction of their defeat.
…
In the direction from Blade Fire City towards Guanglan City, there is a troop transportation road built by Miluo City State.
This troop transportation road was built between mountains and ridges. The wide area can accommodate four vehicles traveling side by side. However, there are some sections of the road that can only support the passage of one vehicle.
Just on this must-see road, there is a long and narrow valley.
Zhou Shicheng led his troops to ambush in this valley.
"Commander Zhou, are you sure?"
Hua Weng asked.
Zhou Shicheng, who was looking at the thread-bound book in his hand, said calmly: "Don't worry, they will definitely fall into a trap after so much preparation."
"It's best this way, otherwise, we won't be able to go back and explain."
A general from the Jin Mansion said in a low voice.
The other generals also nodded.
In order to execute this ambush and kill all the enemies in one fell swoop, a lot of blood was shed in several major towns!
Each of the four major towns used their bones and blood as bait in order to attract the enemy here.
This is the place of despair.
The defeated retreating troops in front were retreating in panic toward Guanglan City, and those who ran faster had already passed through the valley.
In order to successfully carry out this ambush, Zhou Shicheng did not even tell these officers and soldiers his plan.
That is why!
Only the officers and soldiers who stayed behind in the camp thought that there was no way out and launched a desperate resistance. At this time, the defeated troops who were lucky enough to break through did not know where the ambush was, so they fled in such an awkward manner.
This is the effect Zhou Shicheng wants.
The defeated troops below were truly defeated, and the ambush here was also a real ambush!
The only question now is whether the enemy will catch up!
This is what Zhou Shicheng is worried about.
But Zhou Shicheng had no plan left, and he felt that the enemy would definitely catch up.
He didn’t leave any flaws, and no one would spit out the hook when he ate the bait!
…
In fact, there is no error between Song Ziyu’s decision and Zhou Shicheng’s guess!
Looking at the weapons and equipment randomly discarded on the ground and the uneaten supplies, Song Ziyu judged that the escape was real.
Therefore, Song Ziyu did not give his troops much time to rest, and then directly pursued the enemy.
According to Song Ziyu's estimation, if this vigorous campaign continues, he will have to win at least one of the three important towns of Shucheng, Guanglan City and Jinfu!
With this attitude, the army was completely wild and urgent.
This state of being like a wild horse continued until Song Ziyu saw the valley in front of him.
"This terrain..."
Song Ziyu encountered it more than once, and every time there was a story.
But after thinking for a moment, Song Ziyu ordered people to pursue him directly!
Although there may be an ambush in the valley, Song Ziyu's current army is strong and he will not worry about an ambush at all.
According to Song Ziyu's estimation, even if an ambush force ambushes him, he can hold his own and fight back.
This is courage based on strength.
I'm not afraid of the other party's plans at all!
In Song Ziyu's view, he had defeated the enemy's main force in the previous battle and completed the attack on the enemy.
Therefore, Song Ziyu has no fear.
but!
There are some things that Song Ziyu cannot guess at all.
For example, this time!
When the army marched to the middle of the canyon, an accident happened!
…
Someone above the valley was extremely happy.
"Lord Commander, you are really good at predicting things. The enemy has entered the trap area!" Hua Weng praised Zhou Shicheng.
Zhou Shicheng smiled and said nothing while holding the ancient thread-bound book in his hand. The big characters "Jin Ping Mei" on the thread-bound book were very conspicuous.
"Do we need to close the net?"
The generals under his command asked questions one after another.
Zhou Shicheng said calmly: "If you wait any longer, it won't be the best time yet."
So everyone waited patiently until Song Ziyu led the army into the middle of the canyon and reached an area where no one could avoid it. Only then did Zhou Shicheng give the order: "Let's do it."
With an order!
The soldiers hiding in the valley frantically threw dry firewood soaked in tung oil down the valley.
