Hou Xin said bluntly and unhappily: "Dace Minister's approach of retreating without fighting is extremely inappropriate. If we had seized the opportunity to fight the Chu army in Beidou City last time, we would not be in this situation today."
Although Hou Xin said this to Liu Yong, Du Wu felt his cheeks were a little hot. The other person who felt slapped in the face was naturally Zhao Gai.
Liu Yong smiled bitterly and said: "General Hou, if we fight in Beidou City, our chances are indeed very good. After all, the Chu army only had 150,000 people at that time, and it was a tired army. However, the situation is different now. The Chu army is recharging its energy. Rui, plus the Star Blue Army, have a strength of close to 200,000."
Hou Xin said confidently: "My Chongming army also has 160,000 people. Fighting does not rely on large numbers of people. If the Chu army dares to invade, I am confident that I can defeat them!"
"General Hou is a golden general, and his strength is unquestionable. One hundred and sixty thousand versus two hundred thousand is not an exaggeration. But we are now a lonely army, and it is impossible to get support from Chongmingzhou. The Chu army has teleportation The formation can cut off our way at any time. They only need to encircle but not attack. Our Chongming Army will not be able to get supplies and will be overwhelmed sooner or later. Moreover, once the news of the annihilation of the two Highnesses spreads, our military morale will be unstable. The consequences could be disastrous!"
Hou Xin frowned and said: "What Liu Qing said makes sense, but I think it is better to take the initiative than to retreat. Instead of being passively beaten, it is better to let go and fight in an upright manner!"
Du Wu couldn't help but think and weigh: "Retreating to Haijiao City is close to the sea, so we can advance and retreat freely. Didn't the Chu army take advantage of this when they occupied Haijiao City
After a battle with the Chu army in Haijiao City, the worst option is to go to Lei Yuzhou by sea and rendezvous with the Lei Yu army and the Bahuang army to make a comeback. The worst option is to go directly to the sea to find a secret island to recuperate and choose the right time to make a comeback. "
"I have decided to retreat to Haijiaocheng as Grand Ce Qing said!" Du Wu said decisively.
Hou Xin's face turned cold, and he walked away angrily!
Du Wu's face is a bit ugly. Although you are a golden warrior, I respect you but I can't push your nose in the face!
Liu Yong said quickly: "Please don't blame Mr. Hou, Palace Master. As a golden warrior, it is really difficult for him to retreat without fighting twice. My subordinates will persuade Mr. Hou!"
Du Wu thought about it for a moment, nodded in understanding and said, "How can I be so lackadaisical? It's time for you to serve me!"
…
…
In Nandou City, all the senior officials of the Chu army gathered together.
"Du Wu actually withdrew from Star Dou City?" Tao Feifei said in surprise.
Li Xiangjun said with a smile: "It seems that the news that 200,000 Chongming troops were buried in Jiehe has reached Du Wu's ears!"
As soon as these words came out, everyone in the hall looked at Chu Jun who was sitting on the throne, their eyes full of awe. Chu Jun destroyed 200,000 Chongming troops without even using a single soldier. This matter has been spread among the Chu army. Especially when Brother Yudongqi, who was lucky enough to witness the incident, described it with added embarrassment. Chu Jun's status in the hearts of the Chu army was equal to that of God.
Facing the admiring gazes of everyone and the shining bright eyes of the girls, Chu Jun became a little uneasy. Last time, he borrowed the power of rules to destroy 200,000 Chongming troops. He was almost destroyed by the Eye of Heaven. I didn't dare to use it a second time in the future, so I was afraid that everyone would get hot-headed and let me use my powerful attack to use the thunder to chop down Du Wu's army.
"Ahem, what do you think Du Wu is planning?" Chu Jun coughed slightly and changed the topic.
Tao Feifei, who knew the truth, pursed her lips and lowered her head to snicker. In order to avoid everyone worrying, Chu Jun specifically asked her not to tell the other girls.
Li Xiangjun glanced at Tao Feifei thoughtfully and curled his lips slightly, hmph, this stinky man must be hiding something from Tao Feifei.
"The retreat direction of the Chongming Army should be Haijiao City!" Dao Zhengming glanced at Xu Ji opposite him meaningfully and asked with a smile, "What do you think, Brother Xu?"
Xu Ji was originally Du Runan's first counselor. He was captured on the ship that day and surrendered voluntarily. Chu Jun, who was thirsty for talents, naturally wanted more, the better. During the conversation, he felt that this man was indeed very talented, so he directly promoted him to military advisor.
Xu Ji had just arrived, so he kept a low profile. Now Dao Zhengming asked, so he replied: "I can definitely retreat to Haijiao City. Du Wu's move is very wise. Haijiao City is hidden in the Xingdou Mountains, backed by the Wuxian Sea. , advancing and retreating freely, when the Chu army Yudong Banner occupied the three cities in Haijiao, it was probably because of this advantage! "
Chu Jun looked at Li Xiangjun, who looked at him tacitly, and the two of them smiled knowingly.
Ding Ding noticed the two people's little moves and pouted his little lips sourly. Ding Qing said with a smile: "It doesn't matter what the location is, we will send out several armies together and force them into the sea like fish!"
Everyone laughed.
The next day, the two banners of the Chu Army and the Xinglan Army combined nearly 200,000 troops, divided into three groups and forced their way south, following the Chongming Army unhurriedly. Half a month later, the Chu Army and the Xinglan Army defeated the Chongming Army. Besieged in Cape City.
At the same time, at the headquarters of the Bahuang Continent Immortal Cultivator Guild, under the fierce attack of the Bahuang Continent Army and the Lei Yu Army, Tianan City was breached. The armies of the two continents reached Dingbo Lake, directly threatening Junshan and the headquarters of the Immortal Cultivator Guild. Urgent. The eldest son Ding Lei, who had been doing nothing all this time, miraculously came to the front desk, led the army of Immortal Xiu Gong to break through the blockades, crossed the boundary river and moved to Chongmingzhou...
…
…
War clouds were gathering outside Haijiao City. The Chu army's Yudong Banner, Zhennan Banner, and Xinglan Army lined up in front of the formation, with flags fluttering and murderous intent. Not to be outdone, the Chongming Army formed a formation in front of Haijiao City. Their formation was extremely strict, silent, and their murderous aura soaring into the sky was frightening to see.
Ding Qing held the flag in the sky and looked at the battle formation of the Chongming army opposite. He couldn't help but nodded secretly. Hou Xinxin's soldiers were calm and calm. He was known as the Stone Buddha and was good at using dignified soldiers. Ding Qing once heard her teacher comment that if she faced the enemy head-on, regardless of the strength and number of the army, no one would be Hou Xin's opponent. This evaluation was very high.
Today, Ding Qing, as the commander-in-chief of the three armies, is naturally deeply stressed when facing the Shifo Hou Xin. However, only with pressure can there be motivation. At this moment, Ding Qing has an urge to try in her heart. She has already stayed at the Silver War General. It has been many years since he entered the golden warrior stage, but he has never been able to reach the realm of a golden warrior. At this moment, Ding Qing knows that his opportunity has come. If he wins this battle, he will be able to cross this threshold. If he loses, I'm afraid I can only stand still for the rest of my life.
Ding Qing took a deep breath, glanced at the 200,000 troops in front of her, and couldn't help but feel confident. In terms of combat power, the Chu Army is definitely not inferior to the Chongming Army; in terms of equipment, the Chu Army is even better than the Chongming Army, only the Xinglan Army's equipment is inferior; in terms of numbers, the Chu Army has nearly more troops. Fifty thousand people; in terms of commanding generals, Hou Xin's four capable disciples were gone, but he had many generals under his command.
Chu Jun stood calmly behind the army, surrounded by women and a group of masters in the God Refining Stage. There were nearly thirty people in total. Even though there were only such a small number of people, once these guys took action, they would exert no less power than With an army of tens of thousands, Ghost King Ji definitely agreed with this.
"It's rare to see my aunt get nervous. It seems like this old man Hou has a lot of skills!" Ding Ding clenched her pink fist and said.
Chu Jun smiled and said: "Don't worry, we will definitely win this battle!"
Ding Ding rolled his eyes and said, "You don't have to say it!"
Chu Jun was choked immediately.
At this time, the Yudong flag moved, the Zhennan flag moved, and the Xinglan Army also moved, like three unsheathed sharp knives stabbing out.
There is no needless temptation in the fierce attack. It is a fierce attack from the beginning, as fast as a violent storm.
Hou Xin waved the order flag expressionlessly, as if he had not seen the opponent's fierce offensive at all. The order was issued in an orderly manner. The Chongming army steadily stepped forward to defend the front lines in all directions, and fought in a melee with the Chu army that was charging over. Watertight.
On the other hand, the Chu army and the Xinglan army were rushing forward in groups, retreating here and rushing up again, like huge waves on the seaside. They looked violent and chaotic, but in fact they were orderly.
A hint of coldness flashed in Hou Xin's eyes. He was very familiar with this kind of wave-on-wave strategy. Ding Qing obviously wanted to use the advantage of numbers to overwhelm the Chongming army. At the same time, he bullied himself that he did not have a strong general to help him and used the violent wind waterfall. Yu's method broke through the Chongming Army's defense line.
"Hmph, that's ridiculous. Today I will let you juniors see what a golden warrior is. Silver is no different from mud in front of gold."
Hou Xin's strong mental power covered the entire battlefield, paying attention to every detail, where adjustments were needed, where support was needed, where retreat was needed... He knew everything and could make the correct adjustments immediately.
The reason why Hou Xin is called the Stone Buddha is not only because of his calmness in military use, but also because of his patience. He can create an advantage without an advantage, accumulate little advantages, and finally win the victory.
Hardness cannot last, softness cannot be maintained.
Hou Xin expected that such a fierce attack as that of the Chu army would not last long. As long as he could withstand it for a period of time, it would be time for the Chongming army to counterattack.
As Hou Xin expected, the Chu army's momentum gradually weakened after waves of fierce attacks. Hou Xin decisively commanded the troops to advance step by step, not giving the Chu army a chance to breathe.
A battle raged from morning to dusk. Rivers of blood flowed outside Haijiao City, corpses were strewn in the fields, and both sides suffered heavy casualties.
Hou Xin was already sweating profusely and his forehead was a little swollen. This was a sign of a large amount of mental energy consumption. However, Hou Xin was not worried. Even his golden generals could not be consumed. The opponent's generals would definitely be even worse. It should be soon. He will retire and rest.
The sun sets slowly towards the west...
The sunset gradually sets on the mountainside...
The last ray of light disappeared, and the earth was dim. However, the Chu army showed no signs of withdrawing its troops and continued to attack fiercely.
Hou Xin was a little suspicious. Could it be that the Chu army still wanted to fight at night
Hou Xin hurriedly took a pill of the spirit-enhancing elixir, silently digesting and absorbing the power of the medicine, and said to himself: "If you want to fight me, I will stay with you until the end. Let's see who can't bear it first!"
Over the Star Blue Army, Jiang Dongchen, who was wearing a silver wolf mask, took out a bottle of spiritual spring and poured a drop into his mouth. He suddenly felt that his severely consumed mental energy had returned to full strength, and he couldn't help but look in the direction of the Chongming Army with a little pity.
