The first lord of the poor family

Chapter 504 The confrontation between the two armies
Mo Han was about to lead his troops to attack when he suddenly heard the news.

He was so angry that he almost vomited blood and died on the spot.

He grabbed the general's clothes and pulled him forward: "What did you say? Tell me again!"

"Sir, Daxia's cavalry is very powerful. They have artillery and explosives.

More than 1 troops were first sent to stop them. Within a quarter of an hour, almost all of them were destroyed.

We were unable to defend the city, and they quickly breached the city gate. "

The general who defended the city quickly explained.

Mo Hanqi kicked him to the ground.

“You bastard, if I give you an army of [-], you won’t even be able to defend a city.

What's the use of you!

This is not the first time that the Daxia army has used gunpowder. Who asked you to fight them head-on.

When I came here, I specifically told you not to fight head-on with Daxia's army, just defend well!

I've also left you with more than a dozen heavy crossbows, which can obviously restrain the Xia army's artillery.

If you can defeat me this way, I will chop you with my sword! "

The more Mo Han talked, the angrier he became, and he drew his knife and struck the general on the head.

The people next to him quickly asked Mo Han to hold him back.

"Sir, please calm down and listen to what he has to say first. After all, we have fought against Daxia's army. Let's first ask how we were defeated."

Mo Han asked with a murderous look on his face: "Tell me, how could an army of ten thousand be destroyed so easily?
Even if they are defeated, don't they still have more than 1 troops, and they can't defend even a city? "

“Bactria’s army has become very powerful, and they are more proficient in using gunpowder than before.

Just one charge had already wiped out all our cavalry.

After the general learned about this, he immediately ordered all the troops to retreat to defend.

But they used armor and shields to create a larger shield.

Can block our heavy crossbow.

By the time their artillery was pushed forward, we could no longer resist it.

When the general saw that something was wrong, he sent people to block the city gate with stones.

In the end, it was still a step too late and was blasted away by Daxia with artillery.

Even in the city, he was no match for Xia Jun.

Sir, please think of a solution quickly. Daxia's army will definitely continue to attack after they sack the royal city! "

The more Mo Han listened, the angrier he became.

Obviously, he had given instructions very clearly when he came, but this general did not do anything according to his instructions.

No wonder he was completely unable to resist Daxia.

Pull out your knife and chop him to death.

He looked at the army in front with a murderous look on his face.

"Everyone, please listen clearly. If anyone dares to obey my instructions again, this will be the fate.

It's such a pity that more than 1 Turks were killed by this fool. "

Mo Han was extremely angry.

Unexpectedly, the beloved general he promoted would dare to disobey his orders and fight the battle like this.

After losing the royal city, there was no place to stay.

The royal city must be recaptured as soon as possible, otherwise it will be impossible to withstand the Xia army's attack.

Next, Mo Han asked about Xia Jun's situation.

Looking at the city wall that was about to be taken down, I began to hesitate in my heart.

Tufeng City is about to be captured, but the Xia army is behind and they don't know when they will arrive.

If Tufeng City cannot be conquered at once and the Xia army sneak attacks from behind, they will be attacked from both sides.

Mo Han gritted his teeth and prepared to take another gamble.

"Zhu Xie has led an army of [-] to defend the rear and brought all the heavy crossbows.

If Daxia's army really comes to attack, it's up to you to stop them.

Remember not to confront them head-on.

Be sure to keep your distance and fight back with your bow and arrow.

As long as you wait until Tufeng City is defeated, you will be the first to succeed. "Mo Han finally made up his mind and decided to defeat the Turkic Khan at all costs.

Only in this way can he sit back and relax and deal with Daxia with all his strength.

A young general came out and loudly said with determination: "I will obey your orders."

Mo Han immediately organized his troops and prepared to launch the final attack.

He has sent all the generals up, and he must succeed in one fell swoop no matter what the cost.

Just when they were about to launch an attack, a group of scouts rushed towards them.

"Lord Mo Han, Daxia's surprise troops are approaching quickly. They are only five miles away from here."

Mo Han's heart kept sinking.

"How many armies are there?"

"At least twenty thousand!"

Mo Han's expression was extremely ugly, "They captured the royal city but did not send any troops to defend it. It seems that their purpose is very clear.

It is to prevent us from defeating the Khan and allowing our Turks to continue to divide.

Their ambition is really abominable. "

Mo Han looked at the nearby Tufeng City and had no choice but to give up the attack.

He originally thought that even if the Xia army came, at least half of the troops would be left to guard the royal city.

I didn't expect to directly abandon the royal city after defeating it.

If he wanted to stop Daxia's [-]-strong army, he had to detach [-] troops to stop them.

It is impossible for the remaining army to easily capture Tufeng City.

Since we can't win, we can only retreat first to preserve our strength.

Look for opportunities again.

The only thing that reassured Mo Han was that Daxia had no interest in the royal city. He could lead his army to occupy the royal city again.

When Shaoyao was about to escape with his men, someone from a distance shouted loudly: "Lord Khan, Daxia's army is coming."

Shaoyao felt happy in her heart and quickly walked forward to watch from a distance.

This season is not a good time for Daxia to send troops.

Then it is very likely that Lin Hai knew what was happening here and personally brought people to rescue her.

Sure enough, we saw the rebels giving up the siege and gathering all their troops.

Make a defensive posture and wait for Xia Jun to arrive.

Wang Dayong was at the front, leading his troops to approach quickly and stop two miles away from the rebels.

The two sides looked at each other from a distance.

I saw corpses all in front of Tufeng City, there were many huge arrows stuck on the city wall, and there were blood stains everywhere.

You can imagine how brutal the siege was before this.

Since then, it has not been breached, and Wang Dayong finally breathed a sigh of relief.

Finally it's not too late.

I also caught several rebel scouts on the way, and after questioning, I learned that Tufeng City was about to be breached.

Wang Dayong was already extremely anxious.

Before the trip, Lin Hai specifically stated that he must protect the safety of the Turkic princess.

If he didn't do this well, he wouldn't have the shame to go back and meet Lin Hai.

The two sides faced off for a while.

Wang Dayong saw dozens of heavy crossbows laid out by the Turkic rebels.

On such wide flat ground, heavy crossbow arrows are very lethal.

And the range is very long.

Even if we can win with grenades, our own people will suffer a lot of casualties.

Of course Wang Dayong would not fight head-on with them.

After a month or two, Daxia's main force will begin to attack.

With heavy artillery, these heavy crossbows are completely useless.
